Martial Soul: Luo Sanpao, Starting by Conquering Liu Erlong!-Chapter 30: Even a Good Horse Eats Grass It Passed By
Chapter 30 - 30: Even a Good Horse Eats Grass It Passed By
Looking at the unconscious Earth Dragon Bear in front of him, Yu Luomian couldn't help but feel helpless as he asked Xiao Yu,
"What do you think?"
The group had searched the central area of the Sunset Forest for a long time, but aside from this barely passable Earth Dragon Bear, they hadn't found any other spirit beasts with dragon bloodline.
If they wanted to continue searching, they would have to venture deeper into the Sunset Forest. However, the spirit beasts there would no longer be suitable for Xiao Yu, as their ages would be far too high.
Xiao Yu didn't feel confident in absorbing a spirit ring over a thousand years old. With the system on his side, there was no need to take such a risk.
"Xiao Yu, I understand how you feel, but sometimes you just can't find what you're looking for. If we go any further, we'll only encounter spirit beasts over a thousand years old. I don't think you can handle absorbing a light-attribute spirit beast of that level. Maybe it's best to stop here."
Seeing Xiao Yu's silence, Yu Luomian spoke helplessly.
It wasn't that he didn't want to continue searching for Xiao Yu's sake, but the spirit beasts deeper in the forest were no longer suitable for him.
Over the past two days, they had practically scoured the entire Sunset Forest for spirit beasts under a thousand years old.
Xiao Yu naturally understood this.
'It seems I'll have to go to the Star Dou Great Forest for my next spirit ring.'
Xiao Yu thought to himself.
The Sunset Forest was no match for the Star Dou Great Forest. The chances of finding the spirit ring he needed were much higher there!
After a moment of contemplation, Xiao Yu spoke up.
"Master, in that case, let's go with the Radiant Butterfly we saw yesterday."
If he had to choose between bloodline and attribute, Xiao Yu decided that prioritizing the attribute was the safer choice. After all, he could use the Nine Petals Purple Fungus from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to purify his bloodline, but the light attribute was still uncertain.
While Wo Long was still in its current state, Xiao Yu didn't want its strength to weaken due to a lack of light attribute.
Balanced growth was the best approach! Focusing too much on one aspect could lead to a skewed development.
"Alright, it seems that's our only option. Let's go. I just hope no one has taken it yet."
Hearing Xiao Yu's decision, Liu Erlong also showed a hint of helplessness.
Last time, she had brought Xiao Yu here alone and almost didn't make it back.
This time, they had brought high-level experts, but they ended up struggling to find a suitable spirit beast.
What a frustrating situation.
Eventually, they returned to the outer area. After searching for a while, they quickly spotted the Radiant Butterfly resting peacefully on a tree!
Seeing that the Radiant Butterfly was still there, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Looks like we're in luck. Xiao Yu, stay here. I'll be right back!"
With that, Yu Luomian prepared to make his move.
"Yu Luomian, don't steal my thunder. This is mine!"
Seeing that Yu Luomian was about to take all the credit, Dugu Bo immediately stepped forward.
"Dugu Bo, get lost! Xiao Yu is a member of our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family! What are you butting in for?"
"He's my grandson-in-law!"
"He's a member of our family!"
"He's my grandson-in-law!"
"Ugh, do you have any new lines?!"
"He's my son-in-law!"
"..."
For a moment, Liu Erlong and Xiao Yu could only sigh helplessly as they watched the two argue.
Soon, the two of them, now thoroughly annoyed, decided to act together.
They vented their frustration on the poor Radiant Butterfly.
In an instant, two terrifying auras descended upon the unsuspecting spirit beast.
The Radiant Butterfly, which had been living peacefully, suddenly felt as if its long-deceased parents were calling out to it.
Before long, under the crushing pressure of the two auras, the Radiant Butterfly's head spun, and it fainted, completely incapacitated.
Under the spirit power suppression of Dugu Bo and Yu Luomian, it couldn't even activate its innate spirit skill.
Seeing that the two had nearly crushed the Radiant Butterfly to death, Xiao Yu summoned Wo Long.

Soon, a purple thousand-year spirit ring appeared at Xiao Yu's feet.
Although the three of them had seen Xiao Yu's purple first spirit ring before, they were still stunned.
Such a scene, which defied their understanding, would always leave them in awe no matter how many times they saw it.
"Hey, do you think Xiao Yu's spirit ring will change again after absorbing this Radiant Butterfly?"
Recalling what Liu Erlong had told him earlier, Yu Luomian couldn't help but ask.
Last time, Xiao Yu's spirit ring had somehow upgraded to a thousand-year level after absorbing a hundred-year spirit beast. He wondered if the same would happen this time.
But he quickly realized that the person beside him wasn't his elder brother, so he decided to keep quiet.
"I'm not sure. Last time, only his teacher was present. I wasn't there."
When it came to Xiao Yu, Dugu Bo instinctively replied.
"Uh..."
"Hmph!!"
After realizing he had responded to Yu Luomian, Dugu Bo let out a cold snort, and the two of them glared at each other.
Seeing the two of them at odds, Liu Erlong felt a headache coming on.
"Wo Long, go finish it off!"
Wo Long, who had been affectionately rubbing against Xiao Yu's feet like a loyal dog, immediately dashed toward the Radiant Butterfly upon receiving the command.
Under the butterfly's resigned gaze, Wo Long, with its now-evolved sharp teeth, bit down and ended its life.
Before long, a yellow spirit ring with faint purple patterns slowly rose above the Radiant Butterfly's corpse.
Without hesitation, Xiao Yu sat down cross-legged and began absorbing the spirit ring.
With three powerful experts guarding him, there was absolutely no risk.
As the absorption progressed, Xiao Yu found the process to be incredibly smooth.
He barely felt any resistance.
Everything went as smoothly as water flowing downstream.
After an hour, Xiao Yu finally finished absorbing the spirit ring.
The feeling of restraint on his body dissipated.
However, sensing his spirit power, Xiao Yu frowned.
"Level 21..."
That's too little.
Absorbing a nine-hundred-year spirit beast only gave him one level?
But it was fine. He still had a treasure chest to open. He believed that after opening it, he could gain another boost.
Without delay, Xiao Yu decided to open the treasure chest right away.
