As for the skill, Energy Bomb, Wang Che decided not to train it for now.
He had to let the green caterpillar increase the proficiency of the Raging Flame Strike to his satisfaction first.
Just like that, nearly two hours passed.
After the green caterpillar lost its soul power, it rested and recovered.
Once recovered, it continued to use the Raging Flame Strike.
The soul power here was rather violent, but the Beast Origin Skill and the Metal Devouring Art that Wang Che had given it could allow it to absorb the soul power here very well.
From the situation of the others on the communication device, their soul pets seemed to be unable to absorb the soul power here very well.
Most of them were using recovery drugs.
After all, anyone who could become the champion would not lack money.
In two hours, the green caterpillar had released the Raging Flame Strike countless times. It was estimated that it had used the skill at least a hundred times.
One had to know that with the green caterpillar’s current strength, when its soul power was fully recovered, it could at most execute it five or six times.
However, following the method Wang Che taught, after its training increased, its soul power cultivation only increased by a year or two, but it could use it seven to eight times each round!
The improvement was huge!
In battle, being able to use the Raging Flame Strike one more time meant that they had a higher chance of winning.
Furthermore, the power unleashed was much greater than before.
If the previous power was only 80, the current power was at least 90 or even 100.
After using it so many times, the difficulty of raising it was also much greater.
Fortunately, the green caterpillar was very energetic.
It probably felt that it was becoming stronger.
It tirelessly unleashed the Raging Flame Strike at the small tree.
Until…
When the green caterpillar used the Raging Flame Strike for the 108th time…
“Enough! You stinky bug! If you continue to attack me, my body will be broken by you!”
A furious roar came from the sapling.
The green caterpillar braked in fright and turned its head over.
Wang Che smiled and walked over.
The green caterpillar hurriedly stood up and looked at the sapling in front of it with surprise.
“Ssss!” The green caterpillar hissed.
Why was this tree speaking?
“You finally spoke?” Wang Che said slowly.
“Hmph! Young man, you’re very powerful! How did you discover it?” The sapling snorted.
It was actually speaking in human language!
“First of all… this place is called the Floating Forest. Why the Floating Forest…”
Wang Che looked around, “Since it’s called that, there must be a very special plant covering this place. It’s definitely not an ordinary tree… Therefore, when I saw you for the first time, I guessed that you should be a type of soul beast. It’s just hiding in disguise! You’re a special soul beast in the Soul Earth. The students outside have never seen you before.”
“They naturally won’t notice.”
“Secondly, there’s no sunlight here all year round. Ordinary plants can’t grow here. The ground is floating, so ordinary plants can’t survive. Only soul beasts can grow by absorbing the soul power here.”
“Thirdly, it’s naturally impossible for ordinary plants to withstand the Raging Flame Strike. Moreover, you don’t even have any flames on your body.”
In fact, with Wang Che’s experience in his previous life, he could tell at a glance.
These were just words that the sapling could understand.
“Human, you’re quite interesting… After so many years, you’re the first person who can force me to speak. It’s a pity that we’re not soul beasts… Hmph, there’s also an agreement that I can’t attack you… Otherwise, you would have died a tragic death long ago!” The sapling said coldly.
Wang Che held the fruit in his hand and smiled without saying anything.
How could he not know?
This fruit was poisonous. It was unknown if anyone would die after eating it, but they would definitely be eliminated.
As for the agreement, Wang Che did not know.
However, from the moment Wang Che made the green caterpillar unleash a soul skill attack and the other party did not retaliate, he knew that these fellows must not be able to attack for some reason.
“Get lost!” The sapling said impatiently, “To the front, to the left, to the right, go to any floating piece of land. Don’t stay with me!”
“No.” Wang Che lightly said, “I’m not going. I haven’t finished training my soul pet’s soul skill.”
The sapling: “…”
“What do you mean?”
“Nothing much. I just want to continue practicing my soul skill.”
“Do you have a death wish?”
The sapling was impatient. Its tone suddenly turned cold and it began to scare Wang Che, “If you force me, do you believe that I will let you fall from here immediately?”
Wang Che continued to smile but did not say anything.
He had experienced too many threats and had experienced countless life and death situations. How could he be frightened by this?
There was a long silence.
“Green caterpillar, use Raging Flame Strike!” Wang Che said.
The sapling: “…”
“What do you want?”
Upon hearing this, Wang Che waved his hand, “That’s right. My request is very simple. You’re a tree in the Floating Forest. Although you don’t know this place like the back of your hand, you definitely know the surroundings better than me. Tell me, where can I find good things?”
“If you point randomly, I’ll come back and continue using Raging Flame Strike.” Wang Che looked at the latter calmly.
“So that’s what you want. In your dreams!” The sapling said calmly.
“Raging Flame Strike…”
“…Wait! You human, why are you so stubborn!”
“Raging Flame…”
“Fine, fine, fine, I’ll tell you! Don’t hit it!”
Wang Che clapped his hands.
“Wouldn’t it be better if you did this earlier?”
The sapling sighed and admitted defeat, “What are you looking for?”
“Heart Rending Flower or some natural treasure that can increase my soul pet’s speed.” Wang Che directly said.
The sapling was silent for a moment and said, “Walk two blocks to the right and jump two more pieces of floating soil to the south. There’s a nest of the Heart Rending Ants. That’s all I know… As for the natural treasures that can increase speed, I don’t know… However, after you reach the nest of the Heart Rending Ant, walk two more blocks of floating land to the east. There’s a tomb of you human experts… It’ll depend on your luck what you encounter.”
“By the way… even if I tell you all this, you won’t be able to deal with that Heart Rending Ants.” The sapling sneered, “There are still a few unconscious soul beasts guarding the tomb. They attack when they see someone…”
Wang Che thought for a moment and set off with the green caterpillar.
Before leaving, Wang Che looked back at the tree and suddenly asked, “One last question. What species are you?”
“…”
“Soul Tempering Tree.”
Wang Che smiled and pondered. He roughly understood the tree’s origin.
Hugging the green caterpillar, Wang Che used Spit Thread continuously and walked past two floating lands.
Then, it jumped to the south again.
He could vaguely see a large nest and a faint red light in the fog.
“It’s indeed the nest of the Heart Rending Ant. That scarlet light should be the Heart Rending Flower… Looking at the concentration of this light, there are at least ten stalks…”
Wang Che thought about it but did not go over immediately.
He was only testing if what the Soul Tempering Tree said was true.
From the looks of it, the sapling was not joking.
“Then, won’t this exploration be much easier for me…”
Wang Che narrowed his eyes and looked at the Soul Tempering Trees of different sizes on the different floating soil…
He was experienced and knew that any mystic realm or cave abode exploration had its key points.
Either there were complicated array formations inside, or there were difficult obstacles set up by ancient immortals… but as long as one grasped the key point, there was naturally a way to break through any mystic realm or danger ground.
This Floating Forest seemed to be the same.
“The Heart Rending Ant is not easy to deal with. As for the competition, I don’t care… Comparatively speaking, the tomb of the human expert is more important. Perhaps there are good things left behind… Let’s go there and take a look…”
Compared to the other contestants in the channel, he was really not interested in the competition.
Wang Che was more interested in this place…
Soon, he arrived at the floating area where the tomb of the human expert was…
