Douluo Dalu: Transforming Soul Rings into Soul Veins

One year later, beneath the Lake of Life in the Star Dou Great Forest.

The Silver Dragon King's massive dragon body was lying prostrate.

The dense silver scales shimmered with a cold and brilliant light under the ripples of the water.

A flawless body. This beauty even transcended race. Even any member of the human race, if they were fortunate enough to witness this scene, would surely be intoxicated by it, unable to extricate themselves.

The Silver Dragon King's entire body exuded an indescribable power and mysterious beauty. Every inch of skin revealed an unspeakable majesty.

However, at this moment, her pair of amethyst-like eyes were slightly narrowed, revealing a trace of displeasure.

"Hooo—"

She exhaled a breath of dragon's breath.

Her attention was drawn to a black-red wound on her body. The divine power surging in the wound was exceptionally conspicuous.

The flesh at the wound was clearly visible.

New flesh was constantly being born within it, trying to repair the damaged dragon body.

However, the erosion of that black-red divine power was so swift that the newborn flesh simply could not fill the fissure of the wound in time.

On her flawless dragon body, this was the only blemish that should not exist.

It was precisely the one sword strike from the Asura God back then that had injured the Silver Dragon King to this extent.

Under the corrosion of the Asura's divine power, her own strength could only be at the level of a third-level god.

Gu Yuena put away the huge piece of Life Gold and transformed back into her human form.

And at this moment, she had another kind of peerless grace.

Her figure was tall, slender, and well-proportioned, with smooth and graceful lines.

Her silver hair, reaching her waist and hips, was draped behind her, shining with a silvery-white brilliance.

Her face was as exquisite as a painting, with three-dimensional and distinct features.

As bright as the autumn moon and as beautiful as a hibiscus flower, her eyes were like cold stars dotted with lacquer, exuding a sense of inviolable coldness and nobility.

Her purple eyes were clear and bright, carrying a hidden touch of charm.

She was wearing only a simple white long dress, but under the wrapping of the clothes, her incomparably perfect, delicate body and proud figure were clearly visible.

Even if it was just a simple long dress, on her, it looked exceptionally sexy and charming.

"Asura God..."

Gu Yuena murmured softly, her voice carrying a sense of unwillingness.

"Just you wait. You will pay the price."

Her figure appeared beside the Lake of Life.

"Di Tian."

"Master."

A middle-aged man in black with golden hair appeared in front of the Silver Dragon King, bowing his head slightly.

"Where are the other ferocious beasts?"

Di Tian hesitated for a moment.

"Besides Xiong Jun and Chi Wang, everyone else is outside."

"Are those two sparring again?"

The corner of Di Tian's mouth twitched. Sparring should be something both parties agree to.

However, every time it seemed to be initiated by Xiong Jun.

This restless fellow, ranked sixth among the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts, had a cultivation of over 400,000 years.

As a Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear, his pair of claws could even tear space, and the bloodline power of the Behemoth flowed in his veins.

This guy had even scratched the Beast God Di Tian before.

The result was... he was dragged away and given a sound beating.

He was all about being rebellious. Like Er Ming, he was the type with no brain.

Because he couldn't stay idle, he often wanted to find others to fight.

The Ten Thousand Demon King, Zi Ji, and Bi Ji ignored him.

So he could only find the Three-Headed Crimson Mastiff—Chi Wang.

Chi Wang's own cultivation was close to 300,000 years.

He himself also had an ancient bloodline. He possessed three heads, with independent attack and defense capabilities.

His flame was also close to the ultimate fire.

His personality was not as foolish as Xiong Jun's.

He was loyal, conscientious, and at the same time possessed great strength and a certain degree of wisdom and strategy.

To put it in general terms, he was like a steady and powerful wise man.

Not the strongest, but definitely the backbone of a faction.

And what Xiong Jun valued was his character.

He couldn't stand his repeated harassment. If he wanted to fight, he could only find him.

Gu Yuena's face sank:

"So restless.

Although the Lake of Life has a barrier, that fellow Xiong Jun, who knows if he will run to the edge.

Last time he even dared to attack you.

It seems I have to teach him a good lesson!"

The next instant, in a certain part of the forest surrounding the Lake of Life, a great power that made one unable to muster any thought of resistance descended.

Xiong Jun and Chi Wang, who were still in the middle of their fight, their faces changed greatly.

The might of a god pressed down on them.

Under their terrified gazes, the space suddenly tore open.

A dragon claw covered entirely in silver scales...

Reached out from within the spatial rift.

It directly separated the two who were wrestling and knocked them to either side.

"Roar! → Oh?..." Xiong Jun hadn't even had time to let out a full roar before he quickly shut his mouth.

His claws, which could tear space, were clenched tight, as if trying hard to resist this sudden pressure.

Strange, he thought, how did I suddenly incur the Master's wrath?

And Chi Wang, the pressure on him was slightly lighter. He was not as flustered as Xiong Jun and quickly calmed down.

He quickly took a few steps back and sent a warning look to Xiong Jun.

Seeing this, Xiong Jun also understood Chi Wang's intention, quickly retreated, and quietly waited for the judgment to arrive.

"You two, get your asses back here right now!"

"Yes, Master."

In just a moment, all the ferocious beasts had gathered at the Lake of Life.

Behind Bi Ji, a soul beast with golden fur poked its head out from time to time, peeking at Gu Yuena in the distance.

"Master? You are?"

Xiong Jun asked.

"There are some things I want to ask you all."

Ask us?

All the ferocious beasts showed a look of confusion.

You are the common lord of soul beasts.

It has always been you who gives orders. We just have to obey. What questions do you still need to ask us?

Gu Yuena's gaze swept across the shore of the Lake of Life.

"Qiu'er's prophecy...

And the matter of me going out last time, you should all be aware."

Di Tian nodded.

"Master, is it about that Lin Feng again?"

Di Tian's voice sounded somewhat frustrated.

This personal guard of the Dragon God, the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian...

As the clan leader of the Black Dragon clan, he was the leader of the continent's Ten Great Ferocious Beasts.

The ruler of the Star Dou Great Forest on the surface, revered as the Beast God.

He was the spokesperson for Gu Yuena, this common lord of soul beasts.

After losing his god-level strength and coming to the Douluo Star, he had been cultivating hard, hoping to one day return to the God Realm and revitalize the soul beast clan.

It could be said that with the existence of the Silver Dragon King, everything he did would be from her perspective, offering his most sincere loyalty.

However, not long ago, Di Tian suddenly discovered that his own master seemed to have had some changes.

Although Wang Qiu'er was the Emperor Destiny Beast and possessed the attribute of fate...

The one bit of trajectory her Eye of Destiny saw was indeed something they had to believe, but weren't the things the Master was doing a bit too premature?

Last time she actually went over personally, refusing his offer to go.

And then after coming back, she had thrown a tantrum for no reason.

Recently, the name the Master muttered the most was Lin Feng.

He's clearly just a human. Even if he plays an important role in the future, how can he make our own master worry so much for him?

Simply outrageous!

Gu Yuena nodded.

With her continuous catalysis using the Life Gold and her divine power, plus the nourishment from the energy on the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings' legacy bones...

She had finally catalyzed the Star Lou Holy Pearl and the Origin Energy Immortal Grass, which were merely seedlings, into the 100,000-year level today.

An immortal grass grown like this, and with Gu Yuena's deliberate intention, could not give birth to consciousness.

In other words, these two were now merely immortal herbs, and had not become soul beasts.

She took out two points of light.

"Slurp—"

Xiong Jun wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth.

The fragrance emitted by the Origin Energy Immortal Grass and the Star Lou Holy Pearl made his tongue move greatly.

Especially that Origin Energy Immortal Grass.

Its own function was to purely increase soul power cultivation and assist in condensing a soul core. A single effect symbolized a powerful effect.

Heavenly and earthly spiritual plants, for ferocious beasts of their level, perhaps did not have too exaggerated of an enhancement effect, but they definitely had an attraction.

"Master... these two blades of grass... could you..."

"Di Tian, drag him away."

"Yes, Master."

Di Tian let out a sinister laugh.

This guy had dared to offend him before. Even after teaching him a lesson once, he still couldn't fully vent his anger.

Just this time, you brought trouble on yourself. Your stupid bear head should just take a good palm strike from me.

"No, don't, boss!"

Di Tian dragged Xiong Jun off to who knows where.

Gu Yuena continued to speak:

"Don't you all think about it. I have a use for both of these immortal herbs.

Zi Ji, Bi Ji, this time, you will be the ones to hand them over to him. At present, he only needs this one, the Origin Energy Immortal Grass."

Zi Ji and Bi Ji looked at each other, the former responding softly.

Zi Ji said, "It's just that, Master...

That Lin Feng seems to have already returned to Spirit City. There are several Super Douluo there, and also a level 99 Limit Douluo.

If it's just us who go, I'm afraid we will..."

Gu Yuena frowned and looked at the Ten Thousand Demon King:

"Spirit City?

What exactly is the situation with this city?"

The Ten Thousand Demon King bowed:

"Replying to Master, this Spirit City is a new human main city that has been built in recent years.

It is on the border of our Star Dou Great Forest, at the junction of the two great human empires in the north and south.

It was built by an organization called Spirit Hall.

This Spirit Hall, I hear, was founded by the Angel God of the past and has now become the holy temple of human soul masters.

It is divided into two places, the Douluo Hall and the Pontiff's Hall.

The Tributes and elders added together should be 20 Titled Douluo. There are 7 Super Douluo, and the Limit Douluo is just over a hundred years old.

At the same time, this Spirit City is full of soul masters. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it is the most powerful faction of humans."

Gu Yuena frowned. She knew before that Lin Feng was a person of Spirit Hall.

But she had never thought that the headquarters of his faction was located in such a dangerous place.

In that case, she could not let Bi Ji and Zi Ji go.

"When will he leave? Where did Zi Ji find him last time?"

"It was in a border area of Fasinuo Province, Nuoding City.

Following Qiu'er's prophecy, I had been waiting for his arrival there long ago.

That little rabbit from the outer periphery also went there.

It's just that I didn't expect him to leave so soon and return to Spirit City."

Gu Yuena looked at Wang Qiu'er:

"Qiu'er, have you seen any images recently? Where will he appear?"

Wang Qiu'er shook her head. It wasn't like her Eye of Destiny could be used whenever she wanted.

Let alone this kind of targeted use.

"Master sister, ever since I saw Lin Feng say that sentence last time, my Eye of Destiny hasn't given me any more revelations.

And now it's even a little difficult for me to open it..."

Wang Qiu'er's crimson eyes blinked.

She hid behind Bi Ji with a slightly wronged look, as if afraid that Gu Yuena would blame her.

Gu Yuena did not speak.

Indeed, the last time she had Qiu'er proactively use her Eye of Destiny was the result of her forcing it.

Her heart felt a little frustrated.

Bi Ji spoke at this time, her voice gentle and graceful:

"Master, why are you in such a hurry to find him?

Our lifespans are measured in tens of thousands of years, while a human's lifespan is short, a hundred years, or at most a thousand.

That human named Lin Feng cannot possibly stay in Spirit City his whole life.

When he comes out, won't it be the same for us to find him then?"

"You don't understand."

Bi Ji was stunned. What don't I understand?

Gu Yuena saw the confusion on her face and explained:

"Not long ago, I sensed a new change in the power on his body.

Different from the five elements, and also different from soul power. It was a very novel thing. This shows that his martial soul theory has taken another step forward.

I am very interested in this, so I want his progress to be a little faster."

Di Tian and the battered Xiong Jun returned.

Hearing only half the conversation, he directly said:

"Master is interested? In what?

If you think it's interesting, just snatch it back.

Is there anything on this Douluo Continent that can stop our Master?"

The atmosphere suddenly fell silent.

Gu Yuena let out a laugh.

The ferocious beasts were stunned. This seemed to be the first time they had seen their own master laugh, and she seemed very happy?

A light flashed in Gu Yuena's eyes. This stupid bear was right.

He, Lin Feng, was just a human.

She had given him the ice and fire origin of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

And had gifted him all the high-grade and immortal-grade herbs. Even the Star Lou Holy Pearl and the Origin Energy Immortal Grass seedling she had taken away would be given to him in the future.

She had put in so much effort. For what?

Wasn't it in the hope that his martial soul theory could take shape a little faster, and that his own strength could grow a little faster?

The soul veins and that martial soul she couldn't understand, plus the new power she had sensed a few days ago...

Didn't it just show that this kid had the possibility of becoming a god?

Although in Qiu'er's prophecy, he seemed to be on the opposite side of the God Realm...

But she still had to confirm it again.

A human's lifespan was too short. She could afford to wait, but he couldn't.

Perhaps letting him grow outside was not a good thing either. What achievements could a human soul master have?

His own achievements already stood at the forefront of this era.

The human world simply had nothing he needed to know.

Might as well just grab him and have her personally guide him.

As the current only god on the continent, and at the same time the god who controlled all the elements...

Letting him grow by her side, wouldn't that be a better thing?

As for the worry of being observed by the gods after leaving the Lake of Life's barrier...

She just needed to send out an avatar like last time.

But even an avatar was not something a human soul master could contend with.

One must know, the power of a god, compared to a Titled Douluo, was on a completely different level.

It was like an elephant trampling an ant.

Lin Feng, is it? You've made me work so hard for so long. It's about time I properly trained you!

Gu Yuena's heart was refreshed.

"Di Tian, you will go with my avatar to the human world and bring him back."

"Yes, Master."

Di Tian's voice carried a hint of excitement. He really wanted to see what kind of human could make his own master so concerned.

To actually be able to make the master angry, I must definitely teach him a good lesson!

Zi Ji was surprised:

"Master, didn't you say two and a half years later last time...

Isn't this a bit too early?"

Gu Yuena shook her head:

"Not early, not early at all. It's been more than a year since you last had contact with him, right?

Hasn't his gift already been prepared? It's the new power born from his soul veins."

Zi Ji hesitated for a moment:

"It's just that if we bring him here now, his girlfriends, and that Limit Douluo from Spirit Hall... if they investigate..."

Gu Yuena said faintly:

"With just them, they still can't find this place.

As for his girlfriends, just let them wait for a few days.

It's not like I'm not giving him back to them."

Gu Yuena was suddenly stunned.

Why should I give him back?

Such an interesting human is like a treasure.

As everyone knows, as long as it's a dragon, they are born with the talent of collecting precious treasures.

A person like Lin Feng is destined to become my possession.

I am just taking back what should have been mine in advance. Even if in the future, he wants to go back, he still needs to ask for my opinion.

For the "treasure" I hold, I will also respect its choice.

Hmph hmph—
