Chapter 64 A Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Soul Beast!!
Chapter 64 A Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Soul Beast!!
Ning Fengzhi's gentle smile froze instantly, his pupils contracted sharply, and he exclaimed in shock, "What?! A 100,000-year-old soul beast?!"
He abruptly turned his head, his sharp gaze fixed on the giant, blue crystal-like tree in the center of the plaza, then quickly turned to Sword Douluo beside him, his eyes filled with disbelief and a hint of barely perceptible fear.
A 100,000-year-old soul beast!
That's someone who stands at the very top of the Soul Beast Pyramid!
His strength is comparable to, or even surpasses, that of a human super Douluo!
The appearance of each 100,000-year-old soul beast is enough to cause a huge uproar.
They are extremely intelligent, often arrogant, and harbor hatred towards humans, making them a nightmare that countless soul masters fear!
And now, Lin Qiyue is actually telling him that this giant tree, which is used as an academy ornament and exudes a gentle life aura, is actually a living, breathing 100,000-year-old soul beast?!
This completely overturned his understanding!
"Young friend Lin, this...this must be a joke?"
Ning Fengzhi's voice even changed slightly. He stared intently at Lin Qiyue, hoping to see a hint of mockery on her face.
However, Lin Qiyue's smile remained gentle, her eyes calm, and there was no hint of joking.
Lin Qiyue did not answer directly, but instead turned her gaze to Sword Douluo Chen Xin and smiled, "If Sect Master Ning does not believe me, you can simply ask Senior Sword Douluo. With Senior Sword Douluo's discerning eyes, he must have already noticed something."
They're so close now; unless the Blue Silver Ancient Tree fully conceals its presence, it will inevitably be noticed.
Moreover, Sword Douluo is not some weak Title Douluo.
Ning Fengzhi immediately looked at Chen Xin.
Sword Douluo Chen Xin's expression was solemn as he slowly nodded in response to Ning Fengzhi's questioning gaze.
"Fengzhi, what Palace Master Lin said is true. This tree... is indeed a 100,000-year-old plant-type soul beast. Its life aura is vast and boundless, and its pressure is restrained yet unfathomable; there is no faking it. Moreover..."
He paused, his gaze sweeping over the seemingly ordinary blue-silver plants around him.
"I'm afraid... these blue plants scattered throughout the academy are not simple either. They all carry the aura of soul beasts to varying degrees, but they are all exceptionally docile."
Having received confirmation from Chen Xin himself, Ning Fengzhi's last shred of hope vanished.
He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the turmoil in his heart, and forced a smile back onto his face, but the smile was clearly stiff and shocked.
He looked at Lin Qiyue.
"Legend has it... a 100,000-year-old soul beast that can rival a Super Douluo... I never imagined that Palace Master Lin could actually... tame it and place it in the academy..."
Ning Fengzhi's voice was hoarse; he realized he needed to reassess the young palace master's strength and methods.
To make a 100,000-year-old soul beast so docilely serve as the academy's guardian tree and source of life is something no ordinary Title Douluo could do!
He believed that the strength of Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo far surpassed that of ordinary 100,000-year-old soul beasts.
But how can you make a 100,000-year-old soul beast submit?
Is this something humans can do?
After the initial shock, a more realistic and urgent concern arose in Ning Fengzhi's mind.
"Palace Master Lin, please forgive my bluntness... While placing a 100,000-year-old soul beast in the core area of the academy would certainly bring unimaginable benefits, isn't this... far too risky? A 100,000-year-old soul beast is no less intelligent than a human, and its temperament is unpredictable. What if... what if it suddenly becomes ferocious one day, or is provoked by something? Wouldn't the entire academy's teachers and students be in imminent danger? Rongrong, she..."
He didn't finish his sentence, but his meaning was already clear.
Even if there were great benefits to sending his daughter to an academy that raises 100,000-year-old soul beasts, he still couldn't feel completely at ease.
It's like placing a treasure next to a sleeping tiger; even if the tiger is docile at the moment, there's no guarantee it won't suddenly attack and hurt you.
Lin Qiyue took in Ning Fengzhi's worries. He was not displeased by the other party's doubts, but instead nodded in understanding.
After all, the prevailing impression of soul beasts in the Soul Master world of Douluo Continent is that they are powerful, dangerous, and difficult to tame.
He still wore a calm smile on his face.
"I completely understand Sect Leader Ning's concerns. However, please rest assured."
"They are more loyal than you think."
He simply raised his hand.
The next moment, several vines stretched down and stopped in front of them. Lin Qiyue and Xiao Lan jumped onto them.
He turned to look at Sword Douluo and the other two.
Ning Fengzhi was still hesitating.
Ning Rongrong excitedly jumped up.
"Wow, this tree is amazing! A 100,000-year-old soul beast! That means it's just as powerful as Grandpa Sword."
Seeing this, Ning Fengzhi and the other person had no choice but to jump up as well.
At the same time, she exclaimed that her daughter was truly fearless.
Supported by thick vines, the group ascended to the top, overlooking the entire academy.
"All the plant-type soul beasts in this academy are under my control. In a sense, I am their god."
As soon as he thought of it, all the blue silver plants in the entire academy simultaneously lowered their branches toward where he was.
Just like... a pilgrimage!
This scene deeply shocked Ning Fengzhi and the other person.
Is there really anyone in this world who can control soul beasts?
The two had no choice but to believe it; the facts were already before their eyes.
A moment later, the vines landed steadily, bringing everyone back to the ground.
With his feet firmly on the ground, Ning Fengzhi took a few deep breaths of the rich life force, forcibly suppressing the turbulent waves in his heart.
After all, he was the leader of a sect, in charge of the wealthiest sect in the world, and his mental fortitude was far beyond that of ordinary people.
After the initial shock, he quickly regained his composure.
Lin Qiyue possesses such incredible abilities, which is of no harm to him.
This means that the academy's security is probably many times higher than he had previously imagined!
With these absolutely loyal blue silver plant spirit beasts scattered throughout every corner of the academy as eyes and defenses, it is difficult for anyone with ill intentions to infiltrate, and any unexpected situation can be detected and controlled immediately.
As for the risk of the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Tree possibly going out of control... after witnessing the scene of ten thousand plants paying homage just now, that worry has vanished.
The fact that Lin Qiyue could have such absolute control over all plants, including those that were hundreds of thousands of years old, shows that her control over them had clearly reached a level that they could not comprehend.
The so-called "outburst of ferocity" is simply out of the question when faced with absolute control.
Although we don't know what methods Lin Qiyue used, the same thing still applies: if it can be used and improves strength, then whatever the method is, it's a good method.
"Young friend Lin possesses extraordinary abilities and profound skills. I, Ning, have truly broadened my horizons today."
Ning Fengzhi bowed respectfully to Lin Qiyue.
"With these loyal plant spirit beasts protecting us, plus the Poison Douluo, Blue Silver Academy is as solid as a rock. With Rongrong studying here, I have no more worries."
Chen Xin nodded slightly.
Indeed, with such formidable strength, it is virtually impossible for other forces to take action against the academy.
As for killing this soul beast to obtain a 100,000-year soul ring and soul bone...
Ha ha……
Unless you want to offend six Title Douluos at the same time!
Those four maids, one Poison Douluo, and this 100,000-year-old soul beast.
Six Title Douluo-level combatants!
