Chapter 178: Collaborate

This 1,000-year Palm Tree Bear was actually very smart. It definitely wasn’t as fast as that Gold Silk Ape, so it stood at the same spot and used its body to protect that 1,000-year Purple Zoysia and planned to make the Gold Silk Ape retreat in the face of difficulties. But the Gold Silk Ape obviously wouldn’t give up on this rare heavenly treasure and both parties had a big fight.

After understanding the situation before him, Lan Xuanyu returned to his partners quietly and whispered his thoughts to them.

“1,000-year Purple Zoysia, ah! With our current cultivation, we would probably increase our Soul Power by five ranks if we ate it, huh? I’ll be rank 30. Awesome!” Qian Lei exclaimed excitedly.

Liu Feng rolled his eyes, “You’re stupid. Is this reality? We’re in Soul World, what’s the point in eating that? Only energies exist in the simulated world, there won’t be real food. Where’s your brain, huh?”

Qian Lei froze. This time, he didn’t even have a rebuttal. But Liu Feng was right… this thing was only useful for the soul beasts in the simulated world; it wasn’t useful to them at all.

This was also the venue of the qualifier and wasn’t the real Soul World; they wouldn’t even earn a single Soul coin if they tried to sell it!

“What should we do now?” Qian Lei quickly changed the topic.

Lan Xuanyu looked at him and said, “It’s time for you to shine!”

Qian Lei was stunned, “Me? Summoning? Now?”

Lan Xuanyu smiled, “No, not summoning, it’s communicating. Give it a try.”

“Communicate? I’m afraid I can’t do that, eh? It’s not a soul beast I’ve summoned. It’s probably quite hostile, how do I communicate with it? And…” Qian Lei was taken aback.

There was a special ability to his Coin of Summoning Martial Soul. Qian Lei couldn’t battle and was quite weak, but it was also because of this that he possessed some abilities that ordinary Soul Masters didn’t have. This ability was to communicate with soul beasts.

If he couldn’t communicate with soul beasts, how could he command those soul beasts that he summoned?

Mu Zhongtian mentioned before that if Qian Lei lived in ancient times, he could become a very outstanding Soul Master just by his ability to communicate with soul beasts.

Soul beasts were more or less intelligent, just that different levels of soul beast would have a different level of wisdom. The higher the cultivation, the higher the intelligence. Those 10,000-year or 100,000-year soul beasts would even be as intelligent as human beings.

But there was a limit in the intelligence of low-ranking soul beasts, and they would be challenging to communicate with. But Qian Lei’s ability to communicate was directly through his own Spiritual Power; at least he could let the soul beast understand what he was thinking. The soul beasts he summoned would naturally be friendly toward him so he could control them by communicating. He had also tried communicating with soul beasts that he did not summon, but those soul beasts would usually attack him straight away and he had tried it in Soul World.

Hence, hearing Lan Xuanyu asking him to communicate with these two 1,000-year soul beasts before them, Qian Lei was surprised — does he want them to attack us? What are we going to do?

Lan Xuanyu said, “Just do according to what I said. It has a very high success rate.” As he spoke, he whispered something in Qian Lei’s ears, and Qian Lei looked amazed when he turned to look at Lan Xuanyu.

“How did you grow this brain of yours? This could work? I think there might be a chance!” Qian Lei swallowed and seemed excited.

Lan Xuanyu smiled, “How far can we go with just purely our battle power? If we don’t use a special method, it wouldn’t be easy to be the top few. I will prepare with Liu Feng, and if things don’t go as planned, we will turn and run immediately. With Liu Feng’s speed, fleeing shouldn’t be a problem. Prepare your second Soul Skill as well and release the replica to cover us.”

“Alright,” Qian Lei rubbed his hands, he was both excited and a little nervous.

Although Liu Feng wasn’t sure what they were planning to do, he was very confident in Lan Xuanyu and with his new Soul Bone. He really wanted to test the abilities of the Silver Moon Wolf Right Arm Bone.

The trio went forward and hid a distance away. Lan Xuanyu’s golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass was wrapped around Liu Feng and Qian Lei’s waist.

Qian Lei led the way and was close to the edge of the battleground very soon.

At this moment, the 1,000-year Gold Silk Ape had already launched another round of attacks, but the 1,000-year Palm Tree Bear with coarse skin and thick meat still managed to push it back. It was still at a stalemate, and the Palm Tree Bear had learned to be wiser; it kept using its paw to guard its other eye and didn’t give the Gold Silk Ape another chance to attack.

Qina Lei glanced at Lan Xuanyu and he nodded towards him.

Qian Lei took a deep breath, his eyes looked vacant and in the middle of his pupil, a square shape subtly appeared; it looked like the square-shaped hole on a coin [1]. He released his Spiritual Power and slowly went toward the target.

The 1,000-year Gold Silk Ape that was focused on the 1,000-year Palm Tree Bear trembled all of a sudden and looked at the trio with its guard up as it let out a deep roar.

Lan Xuanyu took a step forward and stood in front of Qian Lei, the gold bloodline in his body was triggered. The heated bloodline was surging, and he let out a clear and long howl.

The howl was like a dragon’s roar: It was loud and grand with the gold bloodline’s energy integrated in it. It immediately brought out a special aura.

Whether it was the 1,000-year Gold Silk Ape or the 1,000-year Palm Tree Bear, both of them trembled at the sound of this roar and the horror in their eyes intensified.

Qian Lei’s lips moved subconsciously, and his Spiritual Power continued transmitting his thoughts over.

The Gold Silk Ape was on its guard and retreated a distance away at first, but it seemed to have felt something and deep-sounding roars kept coming out of its mouth.

It could retreat, but the Palm Tree Bear could not because there was that 1,000-year Purple Zoysia behind it. It couldn’t be certain whether they were friends or foes, so it could only watch cautiously in the direction of that roar.

After some time, the Gold Silk Ape seemed to have calmed down a lot. After it went silent for a while, it let out a low roar and charged toward the 1,000-year Palm Tree Bear again.

This time, its speed was even faster. The gold hair around its body released a layer of wave-like gold halo, and it was stunning under the sunlight that filtered through the trees. Its speed was extremely fast, and it was ferocious.

It moved in a flash and charged into the sky; its arms waved and countless strands of gold hair turned into gold needles as they exploded towards the Palm Tree Bear and covered it.

The sudden all-out attack shocked the 1,000-year Palm Tree Bear as well. It roared and covered its eyes with its paws, but its chest puffed outwards and the V-shaped patterned light on its chest burst forth and turned into a strong light that shone directly at the 1,000-year Gold Silk Ape.

Just at this moment, a golden vine silently appeared behind the Gold Silk Ape and wrapped around its right leg. The vine tugged on it gently and the Gold Silk Ape changed direction, dodging that white light by an inch. Not only that, the Gold Silk Ape’s gold hair immediately released a blinding gold light and its body swelled up.

It fell as it changed direction but it suddenly shot up in an instant and smashed its fists against the 1,000-year Palm Tree Bear’s chest.

“Boom!” The 1,000-year Palm Tree Bear fell backwards from the punch. Then, a white figure moved as quick as lightning and grabbed that 1,000-year Purple Zoysia before the 1,000-year Gold Silk Ape could get it. The figure then got up and ran far away.

The 1,000-year Gold Silk Ape was prepared to chase, but the golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass around its leg that strongly enhanced it actually had a change in aura. The power that came from it suddenly decreased; there was a drastic decline in the Gold Silk Ape’s strength and not only that, its body went limp. How could it still chase after that white figure that got away in a flash?
