Chapter 126: The Fangtian Halberd in Hand, the Red Mane Horse Beneath

Before long, Nan Feihuang held the blood-dripping Fangtian Halberd in his hand; the Human-Faced Demon Spider lay at his feet, and its purple thousand-year Spirit Ring had already taken shape.

The Human-Faced Demon Spider is indeed a very powerful spider-type Spirit Beast, but in the end, this one was only at the two-thousand-year level, just a bit stronger than an average Soul Elder; facing Nan Feihuang, it was simply no match.

Nan Feihuang had even tried to drive it away several times, not wanting to kill it, because he had no interest in this spider's Spirit Ring; however, the creature had too heavy a heart for slaughter and attacked Nan Feihuang relentlessly, leaving him no choice but to slash it down with his Halberd.

Looking at that purple thousand-year Spirit Ring, Nan Feihuang thought for a moment before dispersing it; the two-thousand-year limit was simply too low.

The External Spirit Bone Eight Spider Lances is not bad, but that thing does not appear one hundred percent of the time.

If Nan Feihuang had absorbed this Spirit Ring but failed to obtain the Eight Spider Lances, he would have suffered a huge loss.

Besides, he already possessed the Ghost Xiaotian Bead as an External Spirit Bone, so whether he had the Eight Spider Lances or not did not matter.

Having dealt with the Human-Faced Demon Spider, Nan Feihuang continued forward; while running, he reached into his bosom, his soul power surging toward the tuft of red Mane inside.

The next moment, a red light arrived beside the running Nan Feihuang and moved forward side-by-side with him.

"Right, there is also an old man with a dragon-headed cane; a few days ago, my brother was having a normal Spirit Fighting match with someone, yet he secretly played dirty and ambushed my brother. But he has likely already left the Star Dou Great Forest by now; Er Ming, you must help me remember him too."

At this moment, Tang San, after chasing for another stretch, finally could not hold on any longer and knelt on the ground, gasping for air.

Xiao Wu murmured to herself: "I have been taken away by you. My brother must be very anxious. Brother, you must not be impulsive; I will be back soon. Er Ming, next time you sense my aura, observe from a distance first. You must not strike rashly, otherwise, it would be bad if you accidentally hurt my friends."

"Xiao Wu..."

"Although it is a bit late to say this, Zhao Lao Shi has already been heavily injured by you, and you didn't hurt the ones you should have today; the one holding the Halberd is the one you should deal with. He even bullied me a few days ago, and his mental counterattack left me with a headache for days. He also bullied my brother; he deserves to die. Er Ming, remember, the next time you see that one with the Halberd, you kill him."

Even if his soul power had been sufficient before, after running for so long, it had hit rock bottom; the Titan Giant Ape covered a hundred steps in a single stride, so how could he possibly catch up?

If Tang San could see the way the Titan Giant Ape was moving now, he would surely be greatly astonished, because at this moment, Xiao Wu was no longer being held in the giant hand of the Titan Giant Ape, but was sitting upright on its broad shoulders. Although the Titan Giant Ape was running fast, it was extremely steady. Sitting on its shoulder, Xiao Wu could not even feel half a tremor.

Hearing Xiao Wu's words, the Titan Giant Ape obediently stopped and crawled down, letting Xiao Wu descend from its shoulder to the ground. It shook its large head, and an innocent look actually appeared in its eyes.

The only thing supporting Tang San to continue the pursuit was Xiao Wu; even if Nan Feihuang did not like Tang San as a person, there was one thing: Nan Feihuang would never speculate or question his feelings for Xiao Wu.

Nan Feihuang leaped onto his Horse and shouted, "Giddyap!"

Man and Horse as one, the red light was faster than lightning, heading deep into the interior of the Star Dou Great Forest.

"Er Ming, let's stop here; don't go any further. I need to get back as soon as possible, otherwise, they will be worried. Er Ming, you really shouldn't have come out to find me."

Xiao Wu's face was full of worry, looking from time to time in the opposite direction of the Titan Giant Ape's run.

At this moment, Xiao Wu did not look like Er Ming's older sister, but rather like a younger sister who had been bullied outside and returned home to complain to her parents.

However, in the world of Spirit Beasts, the weak are prey to the strong; using all the power at one's disposal to retaliate after being bullied is the nature of a Spirit Beast.

Although Xiao Wu had transformed into human form, how could the habits of a tens-of-thousands-of-years-old Spirit Beast be easily changed?

Listening to Xiao Wu's words, the Titan Giant Ape's lantern-sized eyes flickered with light, its expression unusually gentle, even looking a bit like it was admitting its mistake to her.

"Forget it, Er Ming, it's fine that you brought me out; I'll take this opportunity to condense my third Spirit Ring." Having said that, Xiao Wu sat cross-legged, and a faint red light gradually spread from her body.

Red has always been the color of soul power possessed only by Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beasts.

The Soft Bone Rabbit martial soul appeared behind her, and two yellow Spirit Rings rose from beneath her feet; immediately afterward, from those red rays of light, a purple glow gradually emerged, the purple glow turning into specks of starlight that condensed into shape—it was none other than a thousand-year Spirit Ring.

This is the characteristic of a transformed Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beast; the Spirit Rings they need before entering the Mature Period can all be condensed by themselves, without the need to hunt Spirit Beasts to obtain them.

"This little rabbit is truly ruthless; it was just a match, yet she actually wanted my life." Nan Feihuang approached slowly on horseback from the shadows.

The Titan Giant Ape's speed was a hundred times faster than Tang San's, and Red Mane was a hundred times faster than the Titan Giant Ape; catching up to it was effortless.

Seeing that Xiao Wu had already begun to condense her third Spirit Ring, Nan Feihuang did not appear immediately.

After all, being interrupted while condensing a Spirit Ring is very dangerous, and he did not want Xiao Wu to die so early; she would still be of some use in the future.

Today, Nan Feihuang's true target was that big gorilla.

Because she was condensing the Spirit Ring herself, there was no need to go through the dangerous period of soul power impact; it was a direct strengthening of the body and formation of a soul skill. Xiao Wu only meditated for a short while before successfully breaking through to the Soul Elder stage.

Just as she finished her cultivation, Nan Feihuang gave the order, "Red Mane, now is the time, do it!"

"Majesty of the King!" Red Mane's scarlet pupils emitted light, and a cold, oppressive aura surged in all directions.

Red Mane is the king among horses; after arriving in the Star Dou Great Forest, it was revered as an emperor by all horse-type Spirit Beasts. This pressure was its Horse King's Majesty.

Just like the Killing God Domain, it could suppress the opponent's strength.

And for those whose strength was too weak, it could even directly knock them unconscious, such as Xiao Wu at this moment.

Even though Red Mane had self-sealed more than eighty percent of its power with the help of Nan Feihuang's technique, it still possessed nearly one hundred and fifty thousand years of cultivation at this moment.

How could a mere Soul Elder like Xiao Wu withstand it?

With a thud, Xiao Wu fell to the ground; even until she fainted, Xiao Wu did not know who had attacked her.

"Big Sister Xiao Wu!" The Titan Giant Ape was greatly alarmed; the strength of that wave of pressure just now was enough to make even it feel afraid.

Its massive ape eyes stared into the dark forest, cold and guarded.

Then, hearing the sound of footsteps—thud, thud, thud—a fiery red figure slowly emerged.

Nan Feihuang held the god-level martial soul Ice Fire Peerless Halberd in his hand, mounted on the million-year Wind-Sighing Red Mane Horse; the image of a Battle General leaped before one's eyes.
