Chapter 158 Can't see through it?
Xue Qinghe watched as Dugu Yao and Ye Lingling left, chatting and laughing, without making any move. He simply stood there watching until the two completely disappeared from his sight.

In fact, she had many doubts and questions in her heart.

If one of these two people came to obtain a spirit ring, why did they come out from the depths, and why were there no spirit masters protecting them?

The Xuanling Pill Sect can't just let the two of them enter the dangerous Sunset Forest like this.

Sunset Forest might not be considered particularly dangerous for powerful Soul Masters, but it was a different story for Dugu Yao and Ye Lingling.

That was extremely dangerous; a thousand-year-old soul beast could kill the two of them.

Just then, Serpent Spear Douluo and Porcupine Douluo, who had been hiding in the shadows, suddenly appeared on either side of Qian Renxue.

"Young Master, should we?" Serpent Spear Douluo made a throat-slitting gesture, clearly intending to leave the two who had suddenly appeared here forever.

Qian Renxue waved her hand and said, "There's no need to pay attention to them. I don't need to cause any more trouble. Those two can't see through my identity, and they will be useful to me in the future."

These two people—or rather, Dugu Yao, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling—are all potential entry points for her to obtain the secrets of the Xuanling Pill Sect in the future.

"But Elder Serpent Spear and Elder Porcupine, can you see through their soul power levels?" Qian Renxue asked.

A powerful Soul Master can easily see through the Soul Power level of a Soul Master who is weaker than themselves; this is true without the influence of external factors.

Of course, she couldn't see through the soul power levels of these two people, otherwise she wouldn't have asked Snake Spear and Porcupine.

Upon hearing this, Serpent Spear Douluo and Porcupine Douluo exchanged a glance, both of them seeing a look of bewilderment in each other's eyes.

Clearly, neither of them could discern the other's soul power level; it was as if they were shrouded in mystery, their soul power levels impossible to detect.

This is very strange. Logically speaking, as titled Douluo, it should be very easy for them to see through the soul power levels of the two people.

Unless the opponent possesses a soul skill or soul bone that conceals or hides their soul power level.

“Young Master, I cannot discern the soul power level of these two individuals. It seems that they possess soul bones or soul skills that conceal their soul power level.”

Serpent Spear Douluo bowed respectfully and said, "If you can't see through it, you can't see through it."

Qian Renxue looked meaningfully in the direction the two had left, nodding slightly, her thoughts unknown.

"Was this Dugu Bo's doing? What is he trying to hide? But I'll find out sooner or later. There are no secrets that stay hidden forever!"

"Even if what I'm doing now might be exposed in the future," Qian Renxue thought to herself, not paying too much attention to the matter.

"Let's go. Let's hurry up and find suitable spirit rings for us, and return to Heaven Dou City as soon as possible, lest things get complicated."

After saying that, everyone followed Qian Renxue into the depths of Sunset Forest to search for the ten-thousand-year-old soul beast she needed.

Meanwhile, Dugu Yao and Ye Lingling had already returned to the Nine Nether Cave. Since it was noon, their return was just in time.

Looking at the table full of delicious food, I started eating heartily.

"Yao'er, did you get anything?" Dugu Bo asked, looking at Dugu Yao who was eating. This time, Dugu Yao and Ye Lingling were hunting souls. They should have gained something, right? They couldn't have gotten nothing at all.

"Yes, yes." Dugu Yao swallowed what was in his mouth and said calmly, "I need to speed up my journey to becoming a Soul Saint. It's really tough not being able to fly!"

"And this Sunset Forest, the roads are rugged, or rather, there are no roads at all, and they are overgrown with weeds. We'll have to find our own way back."

"This is really troublesome. If I were a Soul Saint, I could fly back immediately. After all, Soul Saints can fly for short periods of time."

That's right, this is Dugu Yao's gain. As expected, a powerful Soul Master makes everything so convenient, especially the flying skill, which is incredibly convenient.

"Pfft~" Upon hearing this, Dugu Xiao almost spat out his food. He swallowed it down, wiped his mouth, and looked at Dugu Yao in surprise.

"Yao'er, is that all? Didn't you gain anything else, like practical experience? Didn't you gain anything at all?"

If he remembered correctly, the reason he asked Dugu Yao to accompany Ye Lingling on the Soul Hunt was to train Dugu Yao's combat skills.

"Combat ability?" Dugu Yao was slightly taken aback. It was a completely unfamiliar term. To be honest, his combat ability hadn't improved at all during this Soul Hunt.

However, crushing a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast was indeed quite satisfying. The powerful ten-thousand-year-old soul beast couldn't even last a minute in his hands.

Of course, this also confirms one thing: it is extremely difficult to improve his combat ability; ordinary ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts are of no use.

Dugu Yao spread his hands and said, "Excuse me for being frank, but for an ordinary ten-thousand-year-old soul beast, it would be quite difficult to improve my combat ability at the beginning."

"However, there's no need to force it in this regard. When I really need to fight someone, who knows how strong I'll be then."

"If you can crush them, just crush them. As for combat ability, let it be. You'd be better off spending that time on training."

"I became a Soul Saint early on and received the seventh inheritance reward from the fierce god Xiang Liu."

As for his actual combat ability, let's just leave it to fate. Besides, he's not exaggerating. Just imagine how strong he will be when he actually needs to fight.

He is already very close to it now, and the Soul Master world is at least peaceful now, until it becomes chaotic again.

That will be more than ten years from now.

"Brother Yao is very strong, and Xiao Xiangliu is also very strong. That ten-thousand-year-old soul beast, Brother Yao didn't even need to use his soul skills. It couldn't even last a minute in Brother Yao's hands!"

While eating, Ye Lingling said that after this incident, she was a huge fan of Dugu Yao. Brother Yao was the strongest!

Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan stroked her chin. It seemed she would have to work even harder in the future. She just didn't know if she could defeat a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast.
Dugu Bo nodded slightly and said with a smile, "Then let fate decide. Yao'er, you should try to break through to the Soul Saint realm as soon as possible. You are already very close to becoming a Soul Saint."

Dugu Yao is right. Instead of spending time improving combat skills, it would be better to spend time on cultivation.

After all, once Dugu Yao's soul power level reaches level 70, he can enter the alternate dimension again and receive the seventh inheritance from the fierce god Xiang Liu.

It remains to be seen what this seventh inheritance will ultimately give him—something useful to the public or something useful to him personally.
