Chapter 99: Tiangang Centipede
After leaving Tiandou Royal Academy, Chen Yuan returned to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect soon.
Not only did it alarm Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong, but even Chen Xin, who was in seclusion, came out directly because of Chen Yuan's return.
Main peak, inside the main hall!
Ning Fengzhi looked at Chen Yuan and said with a smile:
"Chen Yuan, welcome back, but I remember you said last time that the next time you come back, it will be when you break through the 50th level of soul power. Have you really reached the 50th level of soul power?"
Chen Yuan nodded and said:
"Yes, it is precisely because I have broken through the 50th level of soul power that I came back to ask the teacher to help me go to the Xingdou Great Forest to hunt a soul beast that is suitable for me and strong enough."
When these words were spoken, Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong all showed expressions of shock. He was only thirteen years old, but he already had a soul power of fifty levels.
Even Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu back then, who were the same age, probably could not have been better than Chen Yuan.
But Chen Yuan grew up under their watch. The elders are happy that the younger generation has made progress. Ning Fengzhi stopped being polite and laughed out loud:
"Okay, okay, okay, Uncle Jian, it looks like you have to go. Your disciple needs an extraordinary soul beast as his fifth soul ring."
Chen Xin was also happy for Chen Yuan, so he nodded and said:
"No problem. My soul power is just one step away from reaching level ninety-seven. I originally wanted to improve it through seclusion, but now I think it would be better to have a good fight. Perhaps I can break through faster. The Seven Killing Sword needs an opponent to speed up its transformation."
Ning Fengzhi was even happier. When Chen Xin and Chen Yuan came back, one broke through to level 97 and the other broke through to become a Soul King. That was truly a double happiness.
Then, Ning Fengzhi smiled and said:
"It should be enough to have Uncle Jian accompany you on this soul hunting trip. When you really need it, Uncle Gu and I will also help you."
Ning Fengzhi is now a Soul Douluo at level 84. He has accumulated experience over the years, and later he took the magical herbs, and his martial soul evolved successfully. He absorbed the eighth soul ring and gained soul power at level 84.
Moreover, his eighth soul ring, attack transfer, can transfer any attack below the god level. Of course, the soul power consumed will vary with the strength of the attack.
As long as his soul power is not exhausted, no strong person below the god level can hurt him. With this special soul skill, Chen Xin and Gu Rong no longer need to distract themselves to protect him. The two super Douluos amplified by Ning Fengzhi will show their full strength, which will definitely scare their enemies.
And all this was because of the magical herb that Chen Yuan brought back. For Ning Fengzhi, this was an opportunity to change his destiny.
Chen Yuan's eyes flickered. Perhaps it would be needed in the future. With Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin and Gu Rong working together, hunting down a hundred thousand year old soul beast would not be a difficult task.
Then, he smiled and said:
"Thank you, Sect Master. My teacher and I will set off right away."
A moment later, above the main peak of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, two sword lights shot up into the sky at such a speed that they disappeared in an instant.
After leaving the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, Chen Yuan saw Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan waiting on a hillside, so he quickly landed. When he approached the two, he directly extended his hand to Dugu Yan, then looked at Dugu Bo and said with a smile:
"Grandpa, I'll pick up Yanyan first."
Dugu Yan looked at Chen Yuan with his flying black hair and the faint smile on his lips, which made her dazzled. She took a step forward and stretched out her hand in response. Then, Chen Yuan held Dugu Yan's hand, pulled her onto the flying sword and held her in his arms.
Then, the two of them ascended into the sky like a couple of gods, looking truly free and easy.
But in Dugu Bo's eyes, his eyes widened. His granddaughter was taken away like that. He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say. In the end, he could only shake his head and flew into the air.
He did not chase after her, luckily Chen Xin was waiting there, and soon the two of them were shoulder to shoulder in the sky. The last time they met in the Sunset Forest, they were still wary of each other, but who would have thought that now they could meet so peacefully.
Chen Xin thought about the fairy grass he had eaten, which came from the other party, so he took the initiative to talk:
"Du Douluo, it seems that he is also taking his granddaughter to hunt soul beasts."
Dugu Bo nodded, but then spoke helplessly:
"Yes, I did take my granddaughter to hunt soul beasts. In addition, Jian Douluo really taught a good disciple. My granddaughter was so obsessed with him that she could hardly extricate herself."
When Chen Xin heard this, he didn't know what to say. He had taught Chen Yuan good swordsmanship, but he only taught him swordsmanship. He had never taught him any way to seduce girls. He just laughed dryly and said nothing more.
Dugu Bo felt heartbroken and relieved. In short, it was a very complicated emotion, but more than that, he just wanted his granddaughter to be happy.
And in front, Chen Yuan's black hair was flying, his clothes were fluttering, and his arms were wrapped around Dugu Yan's soft waist. The warm touch made people reluctant to let go.
Dugu Yan snuggled in Chen Yuan's arms, her eyes slightly closed, showing her deep attachment.
……
With their speed, they arrived near the Star Dou Great Forest before dark. However, even with the escort of two Titled Douluo, they did not enter the Star Dou Great Forest immediately.
They had dinner, checked into a hotel, and rested for a night in a nearby town. Then they set out into the forest the next morning.
Because all the beasts they wanted to hunt were ten thousand year old soul beasts, and there were two Titled Douluo present, the group headed straight for the core area of the forest.
After passing through the outer area of the forest, the middle area of the forest, and reaching the core area of the forest, ten thousand year soul beasts can be seen frequently.
As the soul beast forest with the largest area, the most species, and the richest soul beast resources on the continent, the number of soul beasts in it is quite huge.
At this time, even Chen Xin said in a deep voice:
"It's OK to enter here. Now start searching around. Try not to go too deep. This is the core area of the forest. There are many high-level soul beasts over 50,000 years old. Let's be as careful as possible."
Dugu Bo also nodded immediately:
"Indeed, many high-level soul beasts over 50,000 years old have special abilities. Both me and Jian Douluo need to pay close attention."
Chen Yuan and Dugu Yan, of course, had no objections, and they immediately started searching all around.
The human-faced demon spider, the mandala snake, the iron-armored rhinoceros, the red-flame demon tiger... each of these powerful soul beasts are over ten thousand years old, and there are even some thirty thousand or fifty thousand year old powerful soul beasts.
This is why Sword Douluo and Poison Douluo have to be so careful. Of course, they are not afraid if they are alone and can escape no matter what. But with Chen Yuan and Dugu Yan with them, they have to be careful.
Half a day passed quickly. Although a soul beast suitable for Chen Yuan had not been found yet, a soul beast suitable for Dugu Yan had been found. It was a Tiangang centipede that was hunting.
The Tiangang centipede has a heavy armor, which allows it to entangle the enemy, making it difficult for the enemy to cause harm to it. It then injects horrible neurotoxins to kill the enemy and then enjoys the delicacy.
The Tiangang centipede they encountered was no less than twelve thousand years old, which was definitely more than enough to serve as the fifth soul ring. Dugu Yan, who had taken the immortal grass and had an external soul bone, would definitely have no problem absorbing it.
