Chapter 318.
At this moment, Wang Feng suddenly heard something, and without hesitation, he formed Armored Black Thorns into a massive iron ball in his palm. Leaping slightly, he hurled the iron ball out.
The Ice Demon Emperor Kun leaped up with a yell and caught the iron ball, raising it high in the air as if it was fascinated by it.
Wang Feng: "..."
Blizzard Crocodile: "..."
Bingjira: "..."
Wang Feng sighed deeply. He hadn't expected the Ice Demon Emperor Kun to have such a peculiar hobby. Perhaps it had grown lonely in the world of soul beasts, after all. What kind of soul beast finds entertainment in activities like this?
"This Ice Demon Emperor Kun... it loves to sing and play with balls... It doesn't seem to have a particularly high intellect, it's almost like an otaku," Wang Feng sighed again, watching as the Ice Demon Emperor Kun played happily and sang enthusiastically.
And so, this is how the Ice Demon Emperor Kun was subdued by Wang Feng. Of course, Wang Feng had to engage his fourth form and beat it up a bit before it was willing to stay. But indeed, this creature was incredibly strong.
Wang Feng had to push himself to the fourth level, but there was no way to defeat it easily using [Slow World] alone. The main reason was its enormous size and its incredible resistance to attacks. Moreover, due to its skin characteristics, it could absorb attacks, making it difficult for a regular soul master to fight it. The soul power would be quickly absorbed, and the larger the opponent, the more it could not be beaten.
The most terrifying aspect was its ability to absorb others soul power. As long as it was within range, it could quickly drain the soul power of others in the vicinity, greatly increasing the consumption of soul power during attacks.
Its attack abilities were also extremely formidable.
In fact, given its size, the Ice Demon Emperor Kun wasn't weak in any area!
However, this creature was truly lazy and didn't enjoy training with Wang Feng at all. The fundamental reason it became Wang Feng's subordinate wasn't because it was beaten, but because, after so many years... only Wang Feng appreciated its musical hobbies, could sing with it, and play with it.
Lazy and awkward it may be, but it was indeed the strongest of the three soul beasts.
Thus, Wang Feng nicknamed it "Coddled Kun."
This marked the emergence of the "Croco" "Bingjira" and "Coddled Kun," the three top generals Wang Feng subdued in the outer circle!
As for who would be the boss, the Wind Blizzard Crocodile initially thought it should be him, as he was the first to be subdued. However, he was quickly beaten down by Bingjira, who was respected for his strength and became the third in command.
In the following months, Wang Feng encountered another soul beast, the Thunder Spirit Fox, who became the fourth member of the group.
This Thunder Spirit Fox sought out Wang Feng on its own because the three little brothers that Wang Feng had already subdued were of extraordinary origins. Many soul beasts in the outer circle heard about this, but upon learning that the subdued creatures were humans, most decided to stay away.
Only this Thunder Spirit Fox was different.
To Wang Feng's surprise, the reason this Thunder Spirit Fox joined wasn't due to anything else but a desire to take on the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale.
When Wang Feng inquired further, he discovered that the Thunder Spirit Fox had fallen in love with the Stralight Fox, who was one of Qingqing's subordinates.
The story behind this intrigued Wang Feng.
When Qingqing brought Xingxing and Yaya to this place, the Thunder Spirit Fox had secretly fallen in love with the Starlight Fox but never had the courage to confess. The Starlight Fox was beautiful, gentle, and powerful, so the Thunder Spirit Fox felt deeply inferior and had not confessed his feelings for it.
This unspoken love remained in its heart, and it joined Qingqing's team, silently watching the Starlight Fox from a distance. At that time, it wasn't a Thunder Spirit Fox but an ordinary spirit fox with a similar bloodline and strength, lacking in all aspects.
It wasn't even as strong as the Starlight Fox, and it didn't have the ability to protect the one it loved.
Despite this, the Thunder Spirit Fox was determined. It practiced relentlessly, day and night, striving to become stronger. It worked tirelessly, to the point where several other foxes of the same kind tried to persuade it to stop, telling it that the Starlight Fox would never notice it.
But the Thunder Spirit Fox didn't give up. It continued its silent, painful training, even though its bloodline and species –made it seem like a futile effort.
Finally, one day, as if favored by the heavens, it was struck by lightning during a training session.
The power of divine thunder is immense, and despite the excruciating pain, the Thunder Spirit Fox thought of the Starlight Fox. Its powerful will allowed it not only to survive but also to mutate, gaining the ability to control thunder and lightning to a greater degree.
After several years of intense cultivation, it wept with joy, roaring to the heavens as it grew three tails, each full of thunder, with a streak of lightning on its forehead.
This transformation made it the most terrifying Thunder Spirit Fox among its kind, and its newfound strength gave it confidence. Yet, it was still timid, feeling that it wasn't strong enough to protect the Starlight Fox. So, it continued to train silently, all the while watching the Starlight Fox from afar.
Until one day, its cultivation reached 40,000 years–, and its thunder powers evolved once again, giving it six tails!
It became the most powerful existence in the history of the Thunder Spirit Fox family, a terrifying mutation never before seen among soul beasts.
With its newfound power, the Thunder Spirit Fox finally gained the confidence to confess its feelings to the Starlight Fox, the one it had loved for years. It wanted to express its heart and protect the Starlight Fox for life.
When Wang Feng heard this, he couldn't help but sigh.
He could roughly guess what happened next.
However, at that exact moment... the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale attacked.
The battle between the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale and the Titled Douluo left Xingxing and Yaya near death, and in the end, they had to become soul rings voluntarily, their consciousness attached to soul bones they left behind.
The Thunder Spirit Fox never even got to see the Starlight Fox one last time...
What a tragic fate... Finally, after gaining great strength, it never had the chance to confess its feelings before it was too late.
For more than half a year, the Thunder Spirit Fox wandered aimlessly, several times trying to rush into the inner circle to find the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale and seek revenge. However, it never even saw the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale's face and was nearly beaten to death by a few of its subordinates.
But it didn't give up. It continued to train hard, strengthening itself through various means. Its spirit was like iron, and for ten months, it hadn't rested a single day, always in a state of high tension... It also became known as the "Iron Fox."
The desire for revenge kept it going.
These were all that kept it alive.
After hearing this story, Wang Feng felt a deep admiration for the Thunder Spirit Fox.
Even Bingjira was moved significantly.
And so, the Thunder Spirit Fox found Wang Feng, or more accurately, it found the Wind Blizzard Crocodile and then Wang Feng.
It wanted nothing but revenge and was willing to do anything to achieve it.
Pure venegeance to the extreme!
And so, Wang Feng gained his fourth little brother.
Two months later, Wang Feng reached level fifty and finally unlocked the fifth form of the Chaos Green Lotus.
At the same time, through inquiries from the four soul beasts, he also received news about Qingqing.
Qingqing... had been captured by the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale!
A bit late... ahem.
