Chapter 244 Unusual Soul Fluctuations

Many days later, in Mingde Hall, Jing Hongchen led the team to capture the soul beast and returned.

Arthas, who had been well prepared, killed the soul beasts immediately and started to refine them immediately. He also suggested that Jing Hongchen use the bones of these two soul beasts of good quality as materials to refine soul guides for Xiao Hongchen and his sister, which might bring special gains.

The latter agreed and went back to think about it immediately.

Arthas then began the actual refining process using alchemy and completed the preparation work the next morning.

"Gurgle Gurgle." The red and blue colors in the specially made large vat are clearly separated, just like a shabu-shabu pot.

The two-color liquid inside rotates slowly in a clockwise direction. Bubbles bulge out from the intersection area from time to time, and white mist rises, but it is ultimately blocked by the top cover without a single bit of spillage.

It was at this moment that Arthas called Meng Hongchen and his family, who were waiting outside, into the laboratory.

Jing Hongchen glanced at the vat, then at his granddaughter and Arthas. He didn't mind Arthas staying in the lab to observe his granddaughter's condition at any time, which could also prevent accidents. But Arthas was well prepared, saying that as long as he could endure it, it would be fine. If he really couldn't endure it, he could press the switch next to him and come out. So he didn't dare to take the initiative to ask.

It only took a short while for Arthas to explain all possible scenarios, including some special reminders.

"That's all." After saying that, he asked Meng Hongchen's mother to stay and watch over the laboratory, and turned around and left.

"Is there something wrong with this guy's sexual orientation? Or is he really a gentleman?"

Xiao Hongchen, who was following behind, stared at Arthas' back and thought to himself. What a good opportunity to pick up a girl, but Arthas didn't even have any idea. To be honest, he even doubted the charm of his sister.

The old man standing next to him didn't even glance at him, but he looked at Arthas with a satisfied look.

After walking out of the laboratory, Arthas took out a chair from his soul guide and lay down next to it for a nap.

Seeing this, Jing Hongchen and other gentlemen didn't say much. They took out small stools and sat beside them waiting.

At the same time, in the laboratory, Meng Hongchen took off all his clothes, opened the cover without hesitation and jumped in, his face instantly dyed red and blue.

During the alternation, the exposed face was constantly sweating, and the sweat quickly evaporated, and the pain was written on her face. The mother next to her was worried, but her daughter didn't ask her to stop, so she could only choose to endure it.

Fortunately, it was safe in the end, although it took two hours. In his sight, the water surface, which was originally red and blue, had turned into light purple. This was the impurities discharged by his daughter. According to what Arthas said before, after the toxins were dissolved by the two breaths of ice and fire in the body, they would become some kind of impurities and be discharged.

It's meaningless, these lavender substances that are excreted with sweat are...

After a while, Meng Hongchen opened his eyes, and his mother immediately walked over with a towel and clothes.

Soon, the door of the laboratory was opened and two people walked out.

Xiao Hongchen looked her up and down. His sister's skin was whitened by the soaking, milky white. The pores were shrunken and almost invisible. Her red eyes were as clear as gemstones.

"Sister, your skin is almost as red as radish skin." He complained subconsciously.

Meng Hongchen's face suddenly turned dark.

"What nonsense!" Mom spat. "Your sister's skin has become whiter and more supple after the toxins have been neutralized."

Meng Hongchen didn't bother to pay attention to her brother, and immediately turned to look at Arthas who was coming over. She was quite emotional, but soon calmed down, thinking that it would be better if he was more handsome. Although Arthas had done her a great favor, she felt that Minghui, who was handsome and had defeated her many times, was more attractive, so she said politely, "Brother Arthas, thank you!"

"It's a small matter." Arthas, who had already stood up, just nodded slightly, and then said, "If there is nothing else, Meng Xuemei should go back and consolidate your efforts."

"It's almost noon, why don't we have lunch together?" said the young woman standing next to Meng Hongchen with a smile.

"I'll cook for you myself as a token of my gratitude."

"I also think it is necessary." Jing Hongchen followed.

Arthas shook his head slightly, "Let's do it another day. Hall Master, I just took a nap, and when I woke up I found that my bottleneck had loosened. If nothing unexpected happens, I should be able to break through level 60 after consolidating it in the next two days. I plan to take advantage of the momentum to go back to my residence for a short retreat."

"That is indeed more important!" Jing Hongchen nodded, "In that case, let's treat you to this meal another day."

"When you break through, I will personally lead the team to go with you, and bring Xiaoxiao and Xiaomeng along as well."

As he spoke, he smiled slightly, "The Doukai I had people make for them has been fully assembled recently. This time out, it's a good opportunity for them to get familiar with it."

"Okay." Arthas said, "I'll take my leave now."

Jing Hongchen and his family watched Arthas leave.

When the person disappeared from his sight, Xiao Hongchen immediately turned around and said, "Sister, tell me, how do you feel now?"

"Very good!" A hint of excitement flashed in Meng Hongchen's eyes, and he turned his head to look at his grandfather and parents.

"I can feel that all the toxins accumulated in my body have been removed, and my physical strength has greatly increased, almost as good as absorbing a ten thousand year spirit ring."

“So powerful!?” Xiao Hongchen was shocked.

"That's not all." Meng Hongchen followed.

"I can now be sure that before I absorb another spirit ring and break through to the Soul Saint level, I will no longer have to worry about the backlash of poison. I can even say that I am immune to all poisons."

She couldn't predict whether the balance of her martial soul's attributes would be disrupted again after absorbing another soul ring.

"In the process of being cleansed by the two energies of ice and fire, I discovered that a certain strange energy was derived from the intersection of the two energies. This energy has an extremely strong suppressive force on toxins. The toxins in my body are almost completely dissipated without any resistance." She continued.

"As my body was tempered by this energy, my soul power also inherited some of its characteristics."

"As a result, poison resistance has been greatly improved."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hands, and with a thought, his palms turned one blue and the other red.

"Now I can easily convert soul power into ice or fire attributes and control it."

"What about soul power? Has it improved?" Xiao Hongchen asked in surprise.

Meng Hongchen shook his head. "My soul power has not improved at all, it just became more condensed. This method of tempering the body with ice and fire energy seems to only target the physical body, and other improvements are incidental changes. In addition, the process is indeed quite painful. Arthas has a very accurate control of the limit of what I can bear. If the soul beasts hunted by grandpa were older, I would most likely be in great danger."

"The two extreme energies of ice and fire alternate in my body, causing too much damage to my body, especially my internal organs. If it weren't for my martial soul's inherent properties of ice and fire, and my soul power protecting my body, I would never have been able to withstand this kind of erosion."

"Grandpa, what Arthas said before was right. Ordinary soul masters cannot endure this special body refining method." This can be considered as a cover.

Xiao Hongchen believed it and was shocked.

“This is simply playing with your life!”

"A person with great skills is bold and daring!" the father sighed with emotion.

"Fortunately, Arthas is a highly skilled doctor with a detailed grasp of the subject." The mother was still a little frightened.

Jing Hongchen nodded slightly and continued to ask, "Xiao Meng, has your martial soul changed?"

"Yes, but it's not obvious." Meng Hongchen said as he released his martial spirit.

Several people immediately cast their eyes to Meng Hongchen's palm. The dense blue bumps on the toad's back seemed to have become harder and smoother, a bit like it was transforming into dragon scales. Its eyes became brighter and more transparent, red like two rubies. "It's just like Arthas said, it was transformed by the blood essence." Xiao Hongchen's eyes widened.

Jing Hongchen felt a little regretful, "If I had known, I would have looked for two more people with higher dragon bloodlines."

Xiao Hongchen glanced at the toad, then at his sister, and sighed, "It's a pity that the poison in my sister's body has begun to hinder her cultivation. Otherwise, if she waited a few more years and used all of her cultivation for more than 50,000 years, the leather on it might really turn into dragon scales."

"The defensive power can definitely be increased several times!"

When my parents heard this, they were also helpless. Arthas said that this method of tempering the body can only be used once. What a good opportunity, but I couldn't use the best and gain more. It's really a pity.

"I am already satisfied with this improvement." Meng Hongchen retracted his martial spirit and said with a smile, "Grandpa, Dad, Mom, don't forget that even Arthas himself can't use this method of tempering the body."

"I'm lucky enough to be able to use it."

"That's true." My parents' faces turned happy.

"Ah, this method is indeed too harsh." Xiao Hongchen sighed, "Otherwise I can also make a bucket of it."

His martial soul originally had good defensive power. If he could absorb some blood essence from sub-dragon soul beasts, he would be invincible! ?

"Alright, people should know how to be content!" Jing Hongchen shook his head, then said, "Let's all go back and practice."

"I have to hurry to the palace to meet His Majesty." The emperor had already told him to report this matter as soon as possible.

So the family went their separate ways.

Soon, inside the palace.

Jing Hongchen reported the changes in his granddaughter truthfully, and then exaggerated the danger.

This method of body tempering can be called fighting poison with poison. Only soul masters whose martial souls possess both ice and fire attributes can try it. For other soul masters, using it is no different from drinking poison directly.

"That's really a pity." The emperor said helplessly after hearing this.

"Such an unconventional method of removing poison would probably only be thought of and used by a skilled and daring Arthas."

"Yes." Jing Hongchen nodded, "To be honest, I am still a little scared."

"If I had known in advance that my little Meng would have to endure two hours of pain, I would have hesitated for a long time. Besides, this was the first time for that kid to do this."

"Now that I think about it, I suspect that guy was using my Xiao Meng as a test subject."

The emperor smiled and said, "Doctors like to challenge difficult and complicated diseases to improve their medical skills."

"I only hope that the Count of Alsace can learn something from this successful case and bring me more surprises in the future."

"I am also looking forward to it." Jing Hongchen said.

Two days later, Arthas ended his retreat and announced that his soul power had broken through to level 60.

Jing Hongchen did not delay and immediately called his grandchildren and took them to Jingyang Mountains together.

With Arthas' current cultivation level, even if his body was strong enough, in his opinion, absorbing the soul ring of a soul beast with 40,000 years of cultivation was already the limit.

There is no need to travel all the way to the Demon Forest, you can find suitable soul beasts in the Jingyang Mountains.

Arthas, who was unwilling to expose his true strength, naturally had nothing to say.

After nearly two days of flying, the three of them successfully arrived at the living area of ​​the ten thousand year soul beasts in the Jingyang Mountains. Due to the dense vegetation in the forest, the soul guide for high-altitude detection was not very useful, so they could only explore on their own.

While searching, he tested the soul guide.

Xiao Hongchen was dressed in a golden robe, and even the six tentacles behind him were painted gold, which made him very eye-catching and cool.

In comparison, Meng Hongchen, whose Dou Kai is light blue, is much more low-key. Because Wuhun does not have the ability to control metal like her brother, she only has four tentacles on her back, which is the limit of her current ability to control. Of course, there is still a distance to reach Arthas's human-machine integration, like fingers and arms.

In addition, she also held two long swords, one red and one blue, which were made by Jing Hongchen using the bones of ice and fire soul beasts that she had hunted.

In addition to being sharp, it can also transmit its own switching ice and fire attribute soul power very well, which greatly increases the power of the sword.

Arthas didn't need to test the soul guide, so he just watched the two fight the soul beasts and occasionally gave some pointers. Moreover, at his request, Brother Xiao Hongchen and his sister did not kill the soul beasts they encountered, but basically drove them away and did not chase them.

A soul beast that has no intention of fighting again will not be able to play much of a role in its training.

In this way, the team fought and advanced deeper.

With Dou Kai's blessing, Xiao Hongchen became very arrogant. Every time he won, he would clamor to challenge a more powerful soul beast.

Arthas, who was worried about not having the opportunity to act, readily accepted the offer.

Then, on the fifth night when we went deep into the Jingyang Mountains, it was a full moon night.

"Ao!" A loud wolf howl suddenly broke the silence.

Jing Hongchen, who was sitting by the bonfire with only charcoal left to keep watch, stood up suddenly. He could tell that it was the cry of the golden wolf.

As for the Golden Wolf tribe, if there is one, there are a group around. He immediately guessed that they had entered the hunting area of ​​the Golden Wolf Pack during the day and were then detected by the Golden Wolf Pack with a keen sense of smell. And night was undoubtedly the best time to hunt them.

Wolves are famous for their excellent night vision.

Soul beasts that have cultivated for ten thousand years have become intelligent and know how to strike at the most advantageous moment for themselves.

"Awoo. Awoo" Sure enough, a series of wolf howls were heard all around them, and they were surrounded.

"Tattatatta" figures quickly ran out of the tents on both sides.

"Grandpa, are we going to fly away directly?" Meng Hongchen asked tentatively.

"What are you afraid of? We have grandpa here. As long as it's not a hundred thousand year old soul beast, we have nothing to be afraid of!" Xiao Hongchen said with his chin slightly raised.

"Let's take a look first. If the leader's cultivation level is below 50,000 years, he can be our training target."

Arthas murmured at this time, "A soul beast like the Golden Wolf is not bad as my sixth soul ring. Although my martial soul is a tree, it has long been integrated into myself, which has also created a strong body for me. Coupled with the recovery power provided by the martial soul, I can maintain combat for a long time. A soul beast like the Golden Wolf happens to be stronger than the physical body, and absorbing its soul ring should bring me a significant improvement."

He felt an unusual soul fluctuation, which should come from the leader who was commanding the wolf pack.

As a necromancer, it goes without saying that he has an excellent perception of souls.

"You really think of yourself as a beast spirit master!" Xiao Hongchen couldn't help but say.

"The situation in Arthas is special, so it's not a bad idea to go in this direction." Jing Hongchen said.
