"What? Want to go and play the hero?"
Bibi Dong's perception was significantly greater than Huo Yuhao's.
In her perception, two female Soul Masters were being chased by a ten-thousand-year-old Soul Beast.
One of the Soul Masters was a Soul King, while the other was only a Great Soul Master.
The beast chasing them was merely a ten-thousand-year-old Soul Beast.
However, the Soul King-level Soul Master was severely injured, which was why she couldn't deal with the ten-thousand-year-old Soul Beast.
Bibi Dong roughly assessed that the ten-thousand-year-old Soul Beast was just about equal to Huo Yuhao.
"Teacher, then I'll go..."
Huo Yuhao nodded slightly, and then used his Soul Power to quickly rush towards the direction from which the fighting was coming...
—With a "bang," a black figure rushed over rapidly and crashed heavily into a female Soul Master dressed in white.
A terrifying impact struck instantly, sending the female Soul Master flying a great distance, crashing through several trees before she collapsed weakly to the ground.
"Aunt Wu! Are you alright?"
A small figure suddenly emerged from the bushes, running quickly to the woman and shielding her with outstretched arms.
"You big cat, you're not allowed to hurt Aunt Wu!"
The little girl's voice trembled, but she remained steadfast, preventing the black leopard from approaching.
"Bing'er, didn't I tell you to hide? Why are you out again? Run! Don't worry about me!"
Looking at Shui Bing'er blocking her way, Wu Nan felt her eyes widen in fury.
She struggled desperately to get up, but she had no strength left.
She had originally brought Shui Yue'er to hunt for her first Soul Ring, thinking the outer edge of the Star Dou Great Forest would be safe, so she had brought Shui Bing'er along.
However, to her utter surprise, just as she was hunting a soul beast, she was ambushed by a ten-thousand-year-old Bloodthirsty Demon Leopard!
The Bloodthirsty Demon Leopard is an extremely ferocious soul beast, capable of hunting almost anything it sees, and its methods are incredibly cruel; it takes pleasure in killing other creatures even when it's not hungry.
Wu Nan's abdomen was instantly ripped open by the Bloodthirsty Demon Leopard's claws, and several of her ribs were broken.
Fortunately, she possessed a powerful ice-attribute martial soul, Ice Moon Vermilion Swallow.
After being injured, Wu Nan immediately froze her wounds and then fled with Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er.
Taking advantage of her ability to fly, Wu Nan quickly outpaced the demon leopard.
She immediately hid the two sisters, Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er, in a clump of grass, while she herself drew the leopard's attention.
After all, the Bloodthirsty Leopard was extremely troublesome.
Any creature it targeted would be hunted to the ends of the earth, and the Bloodthirsty Leopard would kill it.
Wu Nan had already prepared to sacrifice himself, but he never expected Shui Bing'er to run away.
"Bing'er, listen to me, run! Auntie can still stop it!"
Wu Nan coughed up blood, then staggered to his feet, his eyes filled with murderous intent as he stared at the leopard before him.
At this moment, Wu Nan was prepared to self-destruct his martial soul.
Seeing Wu Nan's state behind him, Shui Bing'er's tears fell in large drops:
"Aunt Wu, don't do this, Bing'er will protect you."
Looking at the leopard before her, Shui Bing'er felt her legs trembling, her stomach heaving with heavy breathing, but she had no intention of retreating.
Shui Bing'er told herself again and again, "Bing'er, you are now a Soul Master.
You must protect your sister and Aunt Wu."
"Phoenix, protect me!"
Suppressing her fear, Shui Bing'er immediately activated her Martial Soul Possession, a terrifying chill spreading from her body.
The ultimate beast Martial Soul pressed down on the ghost leopard before her with immense pressure, causing the leopard to bare its teeth.
The ghost leopard felt the suppression emanating from Shui Bing'er's bloodline.
It should be noted that the quality of the Phoenix Martial Soul is on par with the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus among beast Martial Souls.
Furthermore, Shui Bing'er's Phoenix Martial Soul possessed near-ultimate ice power, making her Ice Phoenix Martial Soul even slightly stronger than the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus.
However, compared to the ghost leopard before her, Shui Bing'er was currently far too weak.
The little girl was only seven years old this year, and her Soul Power level was only fifteen.
Facing the ten-thousand-year-old Soul Beast before her, Shui Bing'er's meager Soul Power was utterly insignificant.
Although her Martial Soul had some suppressive effect on the ghost leopard, the gap between the two was simply too great.
Wu Nan, who was behind them, had already begun to utilize his soul power.
If the ghost leopard in front of them still wouldn't let them go, Wu Nan would immediately rush over and self-destruct
his martial soul to perish together with the ghost leopard.
However, at this moment, an extremely powerful spiritual force connected with Wu Nan's mind without warning.
Afterward, Wu Nan only felt his originally frenzied soul power slowly calm down.
At the same time, the ghost leopard instantly became alert and looked around.
It instinctively felt that its life was threatened.
However, before the ghost leopard could even see where the thing threatening it was, its head felt as if it had been hit heavily with a hammer, and it instantly became dizzy!
This was the third soul skill provided by the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, Soul Impact!
And when Huo Yuhao used this skill just now, it was combined with the first skill of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's head soul bone, Spiritual War Song.
Coupled with the unexpected attack effect, this single impact had already severely damaged the ghost leopard's mind.
Before the Ghost Leopard could react, ice crystals suddenly rained down from the sky, landing silently on its body.
Then, a series of booming sounds followed.
The ice crystals exploded instantly upon impact, spraying blood mist across the leopard's body.
In no time, the leopard was riddled with wounds, its flesh torn and bleeding profusely.
Most deadly of all, after the first round of explosions, the blood on the leopard's body slowly began to freeze into ice blocks, which then continued to explode!
This sudden turn of events stunned Wu Nan and Shui Bing'er.
Almost instinctively, Wu Nan covered Shui Bing'er's eyes, preventing her from witnessing the bloody scene.
The scene before them was, of course, the result of Huo Yuhao's Ice Explosion Technique.
As Huo Yuhao's most frequently used ice-attribute skill in his previous life, he had mastered the Ice Explosion Technique by heart.
Even without acquiring the Ice Explosion Technique soul bone, Huo Yuhao could still use this skill.
After the series of explosions subsided, the Ghost Leopard lying in front was on the verge of death.
Huo Yuhao slowly walked out, then, with a swift stroke, beheaded the Ghost Leopard.
Thus, the ten-thousand-year-old soul beast, the Ghost Leopard, was completely dead, and a jet-black soul ring emerged from its body.
Seeing Huo Yuhao suddenly appear before him, Wu Nan's heart was filled with turbulent waves!
Where did this monster come from?
He looks no more than six or seven years old, yet he can kill a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast single-handedly!
