My Soul Skills Made Tang San Cry

As the sun set, the Star Dou Forest at night grew even more terrifying. The team decided to set up camp. Zhao Wuji reappeared, frowning at the sight of the captured Phoenix-Tailed Cockscomb Snake.

"As far as we've come, should we release it now?" Tang San suggested.

—Only those who have experienced it can understand the snake's despair.

Zhuge Lan glanced at the Phoenix-Tailed Cockscomb Snake.

*[Emotion Points +1]*

It's completely drained.

"Alright, off you go," Zhuge Lan said, loosening his grip.

*[Emotion Points +1111]*

The barely-alive snake flipped over and darted away, disappearing into the forest after a few twists and turns, its body revitalized from the Holy Light's blessings.

"How rude, not even a thank you," Zhuge Lan joked.

*[Emotion Points +111]*

*[Emotion Points +233]*

*[Emotion Points +333]*

Are you a devil? After everything it went through, you expect thanks? Lucky it didn't bite you!

With a chuckle, Zhuge Lan found a rock to sit on and started thinking.

What should I stir up next? Maybe scan the forest from above before leaving? That'd be thrilling!

But problems quickly surfaced.

His skill, "Distant Horizon," only worked on Spirit Masters below the Spirit Douluo level. Star Dou Forest was home to numerous spirit beasts, including the Titan Giant Ape and Azure Sky Bull Python, both over 100,000 years old. Not to mention, the Silver Dragon King was healing in the Lake of Life. Stirring up that lot would definitely rack up emotion points!

'System, if Di Tian hunts me down, can you guarantee my safety?'

*[Cross-Continental Teleportation: 1,000,000 Emotion Points!]*

Got it. If Di Tian targets me, I'll just move continents. But for now, I'll hold off and bide my time.

'When I'm stronger, I'll return for the harvest!'

For now, other places, like Sunset Forest or the smaller spirit beast forests near the empire, could be viable options. Even human towns?

Just as Zhuge Lan was lost in his musings, Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong sat down beside him.

"What are you thinking about?" Ning Rongrong asked curiously.

"Ah?" Zhuge Lan snapped out of it, "Just some interesting ideas that might get me labeled as an evil spirit master."

"Evil spirit master? What's that?" Ning Rongrong asked in confusion.

Zhuge Lan explained briefly.

*[Emotion Points +1111]*

"Do you really rely on such methods to enhance your power?" Ning Rongrong asked, surprised.

After a moment, Zhuge Lan nodded. Although he didn't kill, he certainly tormented his targets!

*[Emotion Points +3333]*

"Is there a reason you need to grow so strong?" Zhu Zhuqing asked, giving Zhuge Lan a supportive look.

She leaned in, massaging his back as if to comfort him. Zhuge Lan decided to savor the moment in silence.

At that moment, Zhuge Lan sensed something and stood up sharply. Zhao Wuji burst out of his tent and yelled:

"Abandon the camp and retreat! Whatever happens, don't look back! Hurry!"

He summoned his Martial Soul Avatar, transforming into a Giant Vajra Bear. Suddenly, two towering trees fell, revealing a massive figure.

Its dark fur shimmered under the moonlight, its colossal, mountain-like body emanating an overwhelming aura.

"The King of the Forest, Titan Giant Ape!" Zhuge Lan shouted, "Everyone, get behind me!"

With a wave of his hand, a massive device appeared, featuring a sturdy base and a giant silver cannon barrel five meters wide.

Level 9 Fixed Soul Cannon: Tai'a!!!

The cannon's terrifying power made even the Titan Giant Ape feel uneasy.

*[Emotion Points +29999]*

*[Emotion Points +11111]*

*[Emotion Points +9999]*

*[Emotion Points +9999]*

Just as Zhao Wuji was preparing for the worst, he froze at the sight of Tai'a, realizing its terrifying potential.

In this blast, not even the Titan Giant Ape would survive unharmed!

"Stop!" Xiao Wu threw herself in front of Tai'a's cannon barrel, shouting, "It doesn't mean any harm! Please, stop!"

Zhuge Lan's expression shifted as he shouted, "What are you doing? Move, or you'll die!"

Tang San tried to pull Xiao Wu back, but she stood her ground. The cannon's energy had already exceeded the level of a Titled Douluo.

Boom! A rock erupted beneath Xiao Wu's feet, launching her into the air. The Titan Giant Ape caught her mid-flight and retreated into the depths of the forest.

"No!!!" Tang San cried, vanishing into the dense forest in a blink, leaving Zhao Wuji and the others in shock.

Zhuge Lan dismissed the Tai'a cannon and said, "Stay here. I'll go check things out."

*[Emotion Points +4444]*

As Zhu Zhuqing reached to stop him, Zhao Wuji held her back.

"Stand down!" Zhao Wuji commanded, "If Zhuge Lan could make even the Titan Giant Ape tremble, he'll be fine."

"What do we do now?" Zhu Zhuqing asked, concerned.

Zhao Wuji hesitated. With three students gone, they needed a plan.
