There were more than a hundred Life Spirit Fruits, one for each of them, and there was still a surplus.
The surplus Life Spirit Fruits were still with the village chief as before.
Zi Chen had decided that he would go out with everyone tomorrow morning to hunt the Soul-eating Beast.
At night, Zi Chen continued to cultivate. Although the Soul Power here was far less than in the Noah Tribe, it was still much stronger than in the Saint Spirit Realm.
Zi Chen used the Dark Ghost Soul-eating Technique, and his Soul Power began to grow.
This was the difference between him and Shan Ya. He had mastered the Soul Refining Technique, so he could improve his Soul Power anytime and anywhere.
After a night of cultivation, Zi Chen had made a lot of progress.
The next day, as the sky brightened, Shan Ya got up early.
Vern and Clark could not wait any longer. They wanted to see how the powerful Zi Chen would fare against the equally powerful Soul-eating Beast.
Under the expectant gaze of the villagers, the four of them walked out of Kata Village.
At this moment, their eyes were shining, as if they had seen the infinite dawn.
Zi Chen began his first real hunt.
…
…
Outside a dense forest, the four of them stopped.
Shan Ya pointed to the dense forest in front of them and said, "This is where we hunt. The Soul-eating Beast is inside, but we are not sure when we will encounter it."
After a slight pause, Shan Ya continued, "Moreover, the Soul-eating Beast sometimes travels in groups, so we need to be extremely careful and only dare to choose one opponent."
Zi Chen nodded and said, "Let's go, we need to be careful too."
Deep in the forest, Zi Chen could clearly feel that the three of them were in a state of tension and were very careful.
Relatively speaking, Zi Chen was the more relaxed one.
Last time, he had already hunted a Soul-Devouring Beast, even though that Soul-Devouring Beast was not caught by him, but by the Ghost Spirit Saint Talisman. Moreover, Zi Chen had tried to draw the Ghost Spirit Saint Talisman, but he could no longer draw it.
Therefore, this hunt in the forest completely depended on his true ability.
After a few thousand feet, Shan Ya looked around and immediately hid behind a big tree. She waved her hand at Vern. The two of them quickly dodged and jumped into a big tree.
At the same time, Shan Ya also leaped up.
Zi Chen was a little confused.
Shan Ya said in a low voice, "There are traces of the Soul-Devouring Beast here. If we wait here, we might find something."
Hearing Shan Ya's explanation, Zi Chen finally understood why their harvest was always so little.
Using this kind of ancient method of waiting for rabbits to show up, it would be strange if there was a lot to be gained.
But in the end, it was still because they were not strong enough.
After understanding Shan Ya's intentions, Zi Chen said, "You guys stay here and guard. I'll go lure a Soul-Devouring Beast over."
Upon hearing this, Shan Ya's expression changed. Vern and Clark also waved their hands.
They knew all too well how powerful the Soul-Devouring Beast was. If Zi Chen were to act so rashly, he would be in great danger.
"It doesn't matter."
Zi Chen waved his hand and walked into the depths.
He was lucky. After walking for only two hundred feet, he perceived that there was an abnormality around him.
Then, the leaves fluttered and there was a sudden wind.
A black shadow flew from the side, and a murderous aura instantly filled the surroundings.
It was the Soul-Devouring Beast.
When he first came to this world, Zi Chen encountered a similar attack. At that time, he could only passively accept his fate and pray for a miracle to happen.
Now, facing the same crisis again, a cold light surged in his eyes, and his body was surrounded by soul light.
The Soul-Devouring Beast pounced, but Zi Chen stood motionless. Only his soul power was flowing quickly, forming ripples in his palm.
At the same time, several Soul Chains appeared in his left hand and flew forward.
In an instant, the Soul Chains wrapped around the Soul-Devouring Beast, causing the beast's forward body to pause slightly.
Zi Chen's right hand slapped forward.
Soul Shocking Light!
Buzz!
Countless ripples erupted from his palm, forming circles of soul ripples that spread out. Only to hear a dull tremor coming out, the Soul-Devouring Beast's body flew out.
After landing, the Soul-Devouring Beast's body began to twitch. After struggling a few times, it fell to the ground.
It did not die, but its soul suffered serious damage and fell into a coma.
There was movement a few hundred feet away. Shan Ya and the other two hurriedly jumped down from the tree and rushed forward.
After seeing Zi Chen, the three of them were completely stunned.
A Soul-Devouring Beast fell at Zi Chen's feet, motionless.
Zi Chen stood there, breathing slightly hurried. The previous attack consumed a lot of energy.
Fortunately, the result was also amazing.
The three of them immediately came forward, sizing up the Soul-Devouring Beast on the ground, their emotions surging.
Once when Hanrui was here, the four of them joined forces to catch such a Soul-Devouring Beast, but the difficulty was not small.
They did not expect it to be so simple for Zi Chen.
Zi Chen directly took out two Life Soul Fruits and put them into his mouth. He had used all his strength in the previous Soul Shocking Light, which consumed a lot of energy.
Shan Ya came to Zi Chen's side and asked curiously, "How did you do it?"
"The same way as you."
Zi Chen thought for a moment and said, "It's just that my Soul Binding Chains are slightly faster and more tenacious."
Shan Ya obviously knew that this was just an extremely modest statement from Zi Chen. If it was only slightly better, they would not be so embarrassed.
In the past, as long as they hunted a Soul-Devouring Beast, they would turn back.
But today they had just come out, and the three of them had not made a move yet. It was too early to go back now.
Zi Chen turned to look at Shan Ya and said, "We have to leave one of us to guard the trophies."
Obviously, Zi Chen also had plans to continue to go deeper.
Vern immediately said, "Leave it to me. You guys continue to go deeper."
Shan Ya and Clark looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
After Zi Chen's soul power recovered and even increased a little, the three of them went deeper again.
With the previous battle, Zi Chen also had a better understanding of his own strength, so this time, he was a little bolder.
There were not many things in this place, but the number of Soul-devouring Beasts was not small.
After walking for about two miles on the mountain road, they found Soul-devouring Beasts again. This time it was not one, but two.
After seeing two Soul-devouring Beasts together, Clark and Shan Ya's faces changed dramatically.
Zi Chen, on the other hand, charged forward without hesitation.
Shan Ya shouted to be careful.
"Prepare the Soul Shocking Light!
Clark, come with me. "
Zi Chen ordered loudly. Ten Soul Binding Chains flew out from his hands and wrapped around the two Soul-devouring Beasts that had already attacked.
Just as Zi Chen said, his Soul Binding Chains were very fast and very tenacious. In an instant, they wrapped around the two Soul-devouring Beasts.
Compared to Zi Chen's Soul Binding Chains, Clark's chains were too insignificant.
The two Soul-devouring Beasts' bodies were entangled in mid-air, and there was a momentary pause.
