Douluo Dalu: Ice Snake Martial Spirit, Infinite Evolution

Chapter 170 I'll Introduce Ruoruo to You
After leaving Shrek City, the group headed straight for the Star Dou Great Forest.

Cai Meier, the vice dean of the Martial Soul Academy, led the way, with Xiao Xiao and the other students in their 30s and 40s walking in the middle, and Ma Xiaotao and Han Ruoruo bringing up the rear to prevent any soul beasts from attacking from behind.

Because they were only hunting souls on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, the two of them were very relaxed and even had time to chat.

"Sister Ruoruo!"

Walking at the end of the group, Ma Xiaotao asked Han Ruoruo beside her with a sense of boredom, "Have you ever eaten meat from the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, one of the top-tier soul beasts?"

"no!"

Han Ruoruo shook her head.

Top-tier soul beasts like the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear are not something that ordinary soul masters can hunt. And those who are capable of hunting them would not sell their meat for a few gold soul coins.

"Junior Uncle said we should take back the carcass of a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear to eat, but we don't know what the meat is like!"

Ma Xiaotao licked her lips, looking on with longing.

Han Ruoruo smiled and said, "Generally speaking, the meat of top-tier soul beasts like these is of good quality."

"However, I feel it's unlikely that we'll encounter the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. After all, Xiao Xiao and the others only need a thousand-year soul ring, and the outer soul beasts can meet their needs."

"The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear is a member of the Bear King's clan. Their clan lives in the core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest and only moves within the core area."

At this point, Han Ruoruo shook her head and said, "Unless you have incredible luck, it's impossible to encounter them on the outskirts."

“Then how about we take Xiao Xiao to the core area to hunt the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear? Its spirit ring is very suitable for Xiao Xiao’s Three Lives Soul Suppressing Cauldron.”

Ma Xiaotao said with great interest.

Xiao Xiao didn't care what kind of spirit ring she absorbed, but she really wanted to try the meat of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, a top-tier spirit beast.

"Taking a level 30 Quasi-Soul Master to the core area is too dangerous; Dean Cai won't agree..."

As Han Ruoruo was speaking, she suddenly heard a loud crash as trees collapsed.

Her gaze followed the sound and she suddenly saw a giant bear, over three meters long, with a robust physique, incredibly long arms, and claws that were two feet long, just a kilometer away to her right.

The giant bear is only a soul beast of about two thousand years, but it is suppressing a tiger demon cat that is ten thousand years old.

"What incredible luck!"

Han Ruoruo looked at the giant bear in surprise.

"Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear!"

Ma Xiaotao exclaimed in surprise, not expecting that they would encounter this soul beast so soon after they finished talking.

Cai Meier, who was leading the group, also began to examine the dark golden dinosaur bear.

"A dark gold dinosaur clawed bear from around two thousand years ago!"

She assessed the age range and looked at Han Ruoruo and Ma Xiaotao at the back of the group, saying, "Ruoruo, Xiaotao, catch it and let Xiaoxiao absorb it!"

"it is good!"

The two of them rushed over immediately.

Han Ruoruo arrived first, and with a flick of her jade hand, a bright golden rope shot out, instantly binding the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear and the ten-thousand-year-old Tiger Demon Cat, rendering them unable to move.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear forcefully stretched out its thick arms, trying to break the Golden Rope directly, but the Golden Rope was extremely soft and tough, far beyond what a thousand-year-old soul beast like it could break free from.

"Don't bother. If a thousand-year-old soul beast like you could break free, then Sister Ruoruo wouldn't deserve to be called the number one controller in the inner courtyard."

Ma Xiaotao landed in front of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, smashed its skull with a slap, leaving it on the verge of death, and then quickly flew back with it in her arms.

Han Ruoruo glanced at the bound and immobile Ten Thousand Year Tiger Demon Cat beside her.

She reached out and retrieved her golden rope, then flew back.

Ma Xiaotao carried the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear back to the team and threw the nearly dead bear in front of Xiao Xiao: "Absorb it!"

"Dean, would the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's spirit rings be suitable for me?"

Xiao Xiao looked at the dying Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear in front of her and hesitated.

She didn't know much about the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, only that it was a top-tier soul beast, and that the Bear King among the Ten Ferocious Beasts was the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

"Perfect!"

Cai Meier explained, "What you want for your third soul ring is a defensive soul skill, while the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear is a soul beast that combines attack and defense. Although it is not known for its defense, its defensive capabilities are still extremely powerful."

"That's good!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xiao felt relieved, took out a soul-guided dagger, and ended the life of the dark gold dinosaur bear.

A purple spirit ring rose from the corpse.

She sat cross-legged on the ground, attracting the spirit ring to herself and beginning to absorb it.

After Ma Xiaotao absorbed the spirit ring, she immediately waved her hand to collect the corpse of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. Then, she smiled at the surprised Cai Meier and said, "Master's wife, I've never eaten meat from such a top-tier spirit beast as the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear before!"

"Fine!"

Cai Meier smiled and gave up the idea of ​​searching for the soul bone.

The next two, three, and four days were spent in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Xiao Xiao has already obtained a spirit ring and will also help the other students hunt for spirits.

However, the other students did not have an extreme pursuit of spirit rings; they were content with just having something decent.

For those who seek the most suitable spirit ring, hunting spirits is a long process. However, for those who don't care about finding the most suitable spirit ring and just want something that's good enough, it's easy to find a suitable spirit ring to absorb in the Star Dou Great Forest.

So on the fifth day, the group ended their soul hunt and returned to Shrek Academy.

Zhang Lexuan successfully condensed her soul core two days ago.

They also received a letter from Dugu Han, sent by Elder Wu.

After Han Ruoruo and Ma Xiaotao returned, she took the letter to them and said, "Dugu Han has sent a letter. He and Wu Ming have both obtained their respective soul rings and are now in Mingdu. He wants us to go to a princess's residence in Mingdu to find him."

“Let’s go now!” Han Ruoruo nodded.

"Take this to my junior uncle and ask him to save me a bear paw."

Ma Xiaotao cheerfully took out the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear corpse that she had collected in the Star Dou Great Forest.

"Okay, I'll talk to him!"

Zhang Lexuan smiled as she put the corpse of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear into the Ice and Snow Love, and then left Shrek Academy with Han Ruoruo, heading towards the Sun Moon Empire.

Shrek Academy is located at the intersection of three kingdoms. The shortest route to the Sun Moon Empire requires traversing a small part of the Star Luo Empire.

Zhang Lexuan and Han Ruoruo arrived at the border between the Star Luo Empire and the Sun Moon Empire in just two days.

It took another two and a half days to reach Mingdu.

……

That day, Dugu Han was sitting in the courtyard with Wu Ming, basking in the sun. He was holding a map in his hand, which his uncle had sent over.

The location of a Howling Moon Wolf King, over 200,000 years old, is marked on it, which can serve as Zhang Lexuan's ninth soul ring.

"I wish I could live a leisurely life like this forever!"

Wu Ming gently shook her small hand, which was intertwined with Dugu Han's, and suddenly sighed.

She is very content with her current life.

Peaceful and serene, requiring no strenuous cultivation, it is very leisurely and carefree.

"Sure, we can do it after we break through level 100!"

Dugu Han said with a smile.

"Breaking through level 100!"

Wu Ming leaned on his shoulder, looked up at the sun shining brightly in the sky, and murmured, "Do you think I can become that?"

"OK!"

Dugu Han nodded seriously.

Wu Ming's talent can be enhanced with the Qiankun Creation Pill. The only challenge now is helping her raise her ultimate fire attribute to a level beyond the limit.

This is extremely difficult; it cannot be achieved simply by adding a few hundred thousand-year soul rings or absorbing tens or hundreds of thousands of-year soul bones.

However, Dugu Han was not worried about this. There was no rush for Wu Ming to inherit the position of the Sun God. They could wait. They could wait for the Snow Empress to become a god first, and then the Snow Empress, once a god, could search the entire continent for treasures that could enhance the fire attribute.

Alternatively, Zhang Lexuan could wait until she finds the Moon Goddess's divine inheritance and becomes the Moon Goddess herself, then help Wu Ming find a way to elevate her attributes to an extreme level.

During this time, Wu Ming needs to continuously improve his soul power. Ideally, he should cultivate his soul power level to the Limit Douluo level when he inherits the Sun God's position, as this would increase his chances of success.

The sun god is a first-class god, and one of the strongest among the first-class gods.

Once Wu Ming becomes the Sun God, she can not only ascend to the God Realm with Xue Di and the other two, helping each other, but she will also be a great help to Dugu Han after he creates his own godhood and ascends to the God Realm in the future.

She has her sun god, Zhang Lexuan's moon god, Xue Di's ice god, and Ma Xiaotao's fire god!

Thinking of this, Dugu Han smiled and took Wu Ming's small hand and rubbed it.

With the support of four first-level gods, he can have his own voice even in the realm of gods.

Furthermore, Ning Tian may obtain the position of the God of Love.

"Hey!"

Wu Ming suddenly looked into Dugu Han's eyes, hesitated for a moment, and asked in a low voice, "How do you feel about Ruoruo?"

"It's pretty good!"

Dugu Han thought about his impression of Han Ruoruo: "Like Le Xuan, she is a very gentle girl next door. It's hard to imagine that someone as gentle as her would be the number one controller in the inner courtyard."

"Le Xuan is gentle?"

Wu Ming looked at him strangely and reached out her little hand to touch his forehead.

"You don't have a fever, so why are you talking nonsense?"

"What do you mean by that?" Dugu Han raised an eyebrow.

"That means you're talking nonsense!"

"Le Xuan is not even as old as me and Ruo Ruo, but she is called the senior sister by all the inner court students. She manages the inner court and keeps many troublemakers in line. They listen to her every word. Dai Yueheng has had a crush on her for many years, but he doesn't even dare to confess."

Wu Ming rolled her eyes at him: "You actually said that such a person is gentle? What kind of nonsense is that?"

"Perhaps I see beauty in the eye of the beholder!"

Dugu Han thought about it and realized that Zhang Lexuan wasn't as gentle as he had imagined, but it didn't matter as long as she was gentle to him.

"Xi Shi?"

Wu Ming was unfamiliar with the name, but she didn't think much of it. She just stared at Dugu Han for a moment and hesitated before saying, "How about I introduce Ruoruo to you?"

Dugu Han was taken aback upon hearing this, and he looked at Wu Ming with surprise.

"Look, Lexuan is with you, and I'm with you too. Of the three of us, only Ruoruo is still single. I'm thinking that instead of letting someone else have her, I might as well let you have her!"

"At least you don't hold back your good stuff at all; you're willing to give us everything."

After Wu Ming finished speaking, she looked at him with a pleading expression and said, "How was it? Was I a good concubine?"

"not so good!"

Dugu Han raised his hand and slapped her on the forehead, saying irritably, "If Sister Ruoruo finds out that you sold her off like this, she'll tear you apart."

"I'm doing this for her own good!" Wu Ming muttered.

Dugu Han glanced at her and laughed, "Don't worry about her. Judging by the time, Le Xuan should be here soon. You should think about how to explain things to Le Xuan first!"

"..."

Wu Ming opened her mouth, but no sound came out, and her delicate face was full of worry.

How the hell is she supposed to say that?!

Dugu Han looked at her troubled expression and was about to say something when he suddenly sensed Zhang Lexuan and Han Ruoruo appearing in his mental perception.

He smiled and said, "You're here!"

"What's coming?"

Wu Ming asked subconsciously.

"Le Xuan and Sister Ruo Ruo, they'll be here soon!"

As he spoke, Dugu Han stood up, preparing to go out to greet him.

"Really? You're not kidding me, are you?"

Wu Ming looked at him suspiciously. How could he have been talking just a moment ago and then suddenly appeared!

"They've really come! I can sense them with my spiritual power!"

Dugu Han said this and walked out.

Seeing this, Wu Ming quickly got up and followed, but she stopped after taking only two steps, and her two little hands unconsciously clenched together.

There's always this feeling of a concubine meeting the first wife.

It made my heart pound.

"I'll see him sooner or later, so let him die if he wants!"

Wu Ming took a deep breath and walked over again.
