Chapter 186 Golden Behemoth
Just as Yang Podi had predicted, even a powerful golden behemoth needs to eat, especially after it becomes a 100,000-year-old soul beast, its need for food increases even more.
After advancing, the Golden Behemoth quickly went out to forage for food and discovered the soul beast that Yang Wushuang had dealt with.
Clearly, the Golden Behemoth's intelligence was no match for the Space Bone Dragon. Upon seeing the food specially prepared for it, it directly tore the soul beast apart and began to eat.
Meanwhile, Yang Wushuang and the other two watched the golden Behemoth, which was consuming a soul beast, with extreme tension, ready to launch an attack at any moment.
As time went by, the Golden Behemoth was chewing its food when it suddenly let out a scream. It had clearly bitten the jade bottle to pieces, and the water from the Yin-Yang Spring flowed out of the bottle and directly into its mouth.
In particular, the three of them also sensed the unique aura of the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.
The three exchanged a glance, then disregarded the danger and approached the golden Behemoth.
In the distance, the golden Behemoth was seen clutching its mouth, seemingly in great pain, with what appeared to be a large wound inside.
Yang Wushuang glanced at the two of them before finally deciding to speak: "Let's do it. It's best to kill it as soon as possible."
The three of them flew quickly toward the golden Behemoth, summoning their martial souls and soul rings at the same time, and even using their weapon soul true forms immediately.
Even though the Golden Behemoth was severely poisoned and seemed to be going crazy, it was not afraid of the attacks from Yang Podi and the other two. Instead, it ignored its injuries and directly met the attacks of the three. In particular, its claws tore a large crack in the ground with a single desperate slash.
Fortunately, the three of them managed to dodge in time, otherwise they would all have been in danger.
The three of them flew like kites. The father, Yang Zhentian, faced the Golden Behemoth head-on, while Yang Podi and Yang Wushuang attacked from both sides. They would never confront the Golden Behemoth head-on, no matter who it was facing directly.
However, it must be said that the defense of this golden Behemoth is truly terrifying. Even a strike from the true form of the weapon spirit can only pierce a hole in it and will not cause it much damage.
Fortunately, the Golden Behemoth had already been poisoned, and under the stimulation of the potent poison, it seemed to be going insane and unable to attack accurately; otherwise, the three of them would have been in an even more difficult situation.
However, as time went on, the three gradually gained the upper hand, which may have been due to the poisoning earlier.
However, using the true form of the weapon spirit also takes a huge toll on the three of them, especially Yang Podi, who is only level 80 now. After using the spirit skill multiple times, his spirit power has dropped sharply, and he may not even be able to withstand this golden behemoth.
Seeing the battle raging between the two sides, Second Grandfather Yang Wushuang knew that action had to be taken.
All eight of his spirit rings melted away, and all his spirit power merged into the ninth spirit ring. The Soul-Breaking Spear became much more powerful, especially its spirit power, which was terrifying.
Then the ninth spirit ring flashed, revealing Yang Wushuang's ninth spirit skill: Demon Wolf Annihilation Strike. The Soul-Breaking Spear seemed to attack the Golden Behemoth at an extremely fast speed, especially the Soul-Breaking Spear itself, where the destructive power was almost at its limit. This was Yang Wushuang's desperate attack, comparable to the final blow of a level 96 Title Douluo.
Yang Zhentian, facing off against Yang Zhentian, disregarded the danger and unleashed his eighth soul skill: Giant Ape Annihilation, a full-force attack.
Yang Podi gritted his teeth, disregarding the rapid depletion of his soul power, and activated the Fusion Ring. He then used his sixth soul skill, Golden Lion Roaring Sky Break, with all his might. Countless beams of golden light transformed into a golden lion king, which pounced directly on the Golden Behemoth.
Faced with the three's all-out attack, which could even be described as a desperate attack, the Golden Behemoth roared and seemed to put all its power into its claws, desperately grabbing at the three.
However, it was only the final blow that brought victory to Yang Podi and his two companions. All three of them pierced the Golden Behemoth's body with their Soul-Breaking Spears, especially Second Grandfather Yang Wushuang's desperate strike, which actually pierced right through the Golden Behemoth's body.
However, facing the claws of the Golden Behemoth, the three could only be considered to have won a minor victory, as all three suffered wounds of varying degrees, especially Yang Wushuang, who was severely injured and whose aura had weakened considerably.
Yang Podi, however, couldn't care less about that and continued attacking the Golden Behemoth. He unleashed a "Myriad Blades Return to One" technique, hurling a massive spear blade into the Golden Behemoth's mouth, piercing through its entire head and delivering a fatal blow.
As a blood-red halo appeared around the Golden Behemoth, the battle came to an end, with the three of them achieving a pyrrhic victory.
Yang Podi quickly arrived at Yang Wushuang and Yang Zhentian's side. It was clear that both of them were seriously injured, especially Yang Wushuang, who had a very gruesome wound on his body, which would even be fatal to an ordinary person.
Yang Podi quickly fed the two a large amount of herbs, then summoned his own martial soul, which produced two blood-red soul rings. The first soul ring flashed, and his martial soul's first soul skill, Blue Silver Recovery, appeared. A green light emanated from his body and flowed into the three of them. Their wounds began to heal rapidly, visible to the naked eye.
After more than ten minutes, the wounds on the three people had almost healed, and even their soul power had recovered somewhat.
At this moment, Yang Wushuang interrupted Yang Podi: "Podi, don't waste your soul power anymore. The injuries on our bodies are all healed. You still need to prepare to absorb the soul ring. Hurry up and recover your soul power, otherwise this soul ring will be wasted."
Yang Podi had no choice but to stop his soul skill and take out the Life Gold. He quickly absorbed the life energy within the Life Gold to recover as much soul power and physical strength as possible. This battle was the one in which Yang Podi had displayed his strength the most in recent years, and it could even be said to be the most dangerous one.
When Yang Podi had recovered for more than forty minutes, his physical strength, soul power, and even mental power had only recovered to about fifty percent. But there was no time left; if the soul ring was not absorbed within an hour, it would automatically dissipate.
Yang Wushuang quickly spoke up: "Po Di, how is your body now? Can you still absorb this spirit ring? If not, that's fine. Our main goal is the spirit bone. We can always search for it in the Star Dou Great Forest for a while longer."
Yang Podi nodded: "It should be fine. My body has recovered more than 50%, so it should be able to absorb it."
Yang Wushuang nodded: "Then be careful. Zhentian, continue to use the Life Gold to restore your body. I will immediately set up a poison array next to the corpse, that way it will be safer."
Yang Podi and Yang Zhentian both nodded, and then everyone began their work.
Yang Wushuang took out various poison powders from her body and began to set them up around her, while her father, Yang Zhentian, continued to absorb the life energy of the Life Gold to restore his body and soul power.
Yang Podi began absorbing the spirit ring, but this time it was much more difficult, as his physical condition was much worse than before, and the process was extremely painful.
Three days had passed since Yang Podi fully absorbed the spirit ring, longer than any spirit ring he had ever absorbed before. In particular, the special metallic energy that far surpassed that of the Golden Lion King was exceptionally dangerous.
When Yang Podi opened his eyes, he saw the worried looks in his father's and second grandfather's eyes. It was clear that the two of them had been very worried about him, and they only breathed a sigh of relief after he finished absorbing the energy.
Yang Podi quickly asked Yang Wushuang, "Second Grandfather, what kind of soul bone is it this time?"
Yang Wushuang then spoke with a smile: "We were lucky this time; it's a left arm soul bone."
Yang Podi finally breathed a sigh of relief, having achieved his goal of coming out this time.
Yang Podi looked around and saw many corpses of soul beasts on the ground. They were obviously the soul beasts that had tried to attack the three of them in the past few days, but they had either been poisoned to death or killed instantly by Yang Wushuang and Yang Zhentian. After taking turns to recover in the past few days, Yang Wushuang and Yang Zhentian had both recovered to their best condition.
Just as Yang Podi and his two companions were about to leave, the entire earth seemed to tremble. Then, a huge figure appeared. This soul beast had explosive muscles all over its body, and its body was as hard as granite, so its defense was obviously very strong. There was even a little girl on its shoulder.
This is none other than Titan Giant Ape Erming and Xiaowu.
Erming seemed somewhat annoyed and said, "Humans, how dare you come to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt 100,000-year-old soul beasts?"
Looking at the two people in front of him, Yang Podi couldn't help but say, "Isn't it normal for humans to hunt soul beasts? Have you ever seen a soul master who didn't hunt soul beasts to level up? You agree, right, Xiao Wu?"
Xiao Wu seemed a little angry: "You're Yang Podi from the Heaven Dou Second Team. I never imagined it would be you who came to hunt down a 100,000-year-old soul beast. Don't you know that 100,000-year-old soul beasts have feelings?"
Yang Podi shook his head: "What you said is interesting. Tang San's father, Tang Hao, also had a 100,000-year soul ring. Could it have been picked up from the ground?"
"You just mentioned that 100,000-year-old soul beasts have feelings, and I don't deny that. But the world of soul masters is a dog-eat-dog world. Just like you, when you were in the Spirit Hall, you had no strength, so you could only be slaughtered by others."
"Similarly, those Soul Masters who enter the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt Soul Beasts, if they encounter powerful Soul Beasts, don't they also die at the hands of the Soul Beasts?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu was speechless. Just as Yang Podi said, the law of the jungle is the ironclad rule of the Soul Master world.
However, Xiao Wu finally spoke up: "So, will you also hunt me down to use as a spirit ring in the future?"
Yang Podi couldn't help but chuckle: "I'm really sorry, little rabbit, I'm not interested in using you as a spirit ring."
Xiao Wu was speechless for a moment after hearing this, but she still stubbornly said, "Do you look down on me that much? I'm very strong."
Yang Podi couldn't help but shake his head: "According to you, you want me to use you as a target to hunt for spirit rings in the future?"
Xiao Wu was speechless again, but Er Ming spoke up: "Sister Xiao Wu, don't be afraid, Da Ming and I will protect you."
After a standoff, neither side seemed inclined to make a move, and finally Yang Podi and his two companions prepared to leave.
Before leaving, Yang Podi said to Xiao Wu, "Xiao Wu, I have a piece of advice for you. Although I am not interested in your spirit ring, there are still many people who are interested in it, such as your enemies. I advise you to stay far away, otherwise you may be captured by someone if you are not careful."
After saying that, Yang Podi ignored Xiao Wu's ashen expression, and the three of them left the Star Dou Great Forest.
The Behemoth is known as a creature that can tear apart dragons with its bare hands. My golden Behemoth is set to a relatively high level, roughly the same level as the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, or even higher.
