Peerless Tang Sect: Becoming a God Through Medicine

Chapter 143 The Frustrated Old Men, the Auspicious Beast Appears
Three days of frantic searching had nearly exhausted their patience.

Those who know the situation understand that they are hunting down someone, but those who don't might think they're trying to secretly mine in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Given their status, when have they ever done anything so degrading?

Xuanzi, in particular, is already restless and has a hard time keeping his composure. If it weren't for Mu En's prior instructions, he would have already started to lose his temper and let himself go.

Another reason is that the longer it drags on, the more likely Lin Nuo and the others are to leave the Star Dou Great Forest. If they really manage to escape, then all their efforts will have been in vain.

To put it bluntly, they're getting desperate.

Although the plan to intercept and kill Lin Nuo was finalized by Mu En, the initial suggestion came from Xuan Zi. If the five of them, as titled Douluo, couldn't even handle a brat from the Sun Moon Empire, wouldn't that make them look utterly incompetent?

The other four were alright, but Xuanzi's desire to achieve great things was even stronger than his desire to drink.

Having experienced the previous competition and the series of changes that followed, Xuanzi is now extremely eager to improve and can't wait to do something big.

As for who he helped achieve success, don't worry about that for now. Just tell me whether he actually achieved success or not.

My title as the Supreme Elder is not just for show.

"How about this, let's not push forward step by step. According to the descriptions of Yuhao and the other two, the brats from the Sun Moon Empire must be here to hunt souls in the Star Dou Great Forest. And the soul rings they want must be of very high quality, otherwise they wouldn't need to hunt souls in the Star Dou Great Forest; they could do it in the Sun Moon Empire." In his eagerness to make a name for himself, Xuanzi's stagnant brain actually displayed astonishing wisdom.

"If they need high-quality spirit rings, then they must go deep into the mixed zone or even the core zone. We can just search inside!"

"Xiao Song, you're faster, so you can work harder and search a wider area. The rest of us four will each choose a direction and search quickly. Once we find a match, kill them without mercy!"

"Alright, let's divide the work!" The other four naturally had no objections.

They also wanted to finish as soon as possible, eliminate the destabilizing factors, and return to Shrek Academy to report back. Every second they stayed in the Star Dou Great Forest increased the uncertainty, and they hated this feeling, hated the feeling of not being in control of the situation.

Song Yunzhi took the lead, transforming into an elusive streak of azure light and disappearing instantly, heading deep into the Star Dou Great Forest.

The other four also set off, each choosing a direction, and began to advance rapidly.

The sun sets and the moon rises, the moon sets and the sun rises.

A day passed quickly.

Unlike Lin Nuo, who possesses a domain soul skill that allows him to detect wherever he goes, the five titled Douluos of Shrek Academy could only search little by little by flying. Moreover, they could not make too much noise, lest they alert the beings in the Star Dou Great Forest.

A full day later, the five of them had searched through the deeper mixed areas, but they found nothing.

The five people who regrouped at the edge of the core area looked even more grim than they had a day ago.

"It seems they'll only be in the core area." Xuanzi looked deeper into the Star Dou Great Forest, his hands behind his back clenching slightly.

Unlike the mixed zone, the core area has a much higher probability of encountering 100,000-year-old soul beasts or ferocious beasts, and they may run into them head-on at any time.

They really didn't want to go in unless absolutely necessary.

They weren't afraid, and even if they encountered trouble, the five of them were confident they could escape unscathed. What they worried about was getting Shrek Academy into trouble. "The arrow is on the string and must be released, everyone. There's no need to hesitate, let's go in." Song Yunzhi sighed. Even though the risks in the core area were several times greater, they had no choice but to go in.

"Since the incident at the Body Sect, I can't even remember the last time I entered the core area of ​​Star Dou. It's a pity for my old bones." Lin Huiqun shook her head and followed suit, heading deeper into the area.

Three more streaks of light followed closely behind.

……

The Starry Sky Forest is full of diverse things, and different things happen every minute and every second.

Lin Nuo was still protecting Xiao Hongchen with Meng Hongchen here, while outside, Shrek Old Deng had already formed a five-player team to climb the ranks in Kuku. Inside, there was also a little ancestor whose stomach was rumbling.

"Red King, I'm hungry!" A melodious female voice rang out in the dense forest, and a lion as beautiful as a work of art leaped out of the bushes.

"I'm going hunting! Red King, remember to follow!" The Three-Eyed Golden Lion shouted to the sky and then galloped off towards the core area.

Its soft, golden-red fur seemed to burn like flames in the sun.

heaven.

The three-headed Crimson Demon Hound, Crimson King, who was sleeping nestled in a fiery red cloud, opened his eyes after hearing the voice of the three-eyed golden lion. Somewhat helplessly, he fell from the cloud to the ground and followed in the footsteps of his little ancestor.

Since the Three-Eyed Golden Lion was born, it has always been protected by the Crimson King. The Crimson King has experienced countless times the little ancestor went hunting, and could only interrupt his own rest.

Although it didn't believe that any spirit beast in the Star Dou Great Forest would dare to harm auspicious beasts, the Star Dou Great Forest was often visited by damned humans who hunted spirit beasts, especially the neighboring Shrek Academy and that audacious Body Sect.

What if the Three-Eyed Golden Lion gets targeted? The Crimson King dared not gamble on whether some foolish human might appear and try to kill the Three-Eyed Golden Lion to make it his soul ring.

The Crimson King never doubted the greed and recklessness of humans. Once humans went mad, even it, as a soul beast, felt ashamed of itself.

And for some reason, even though it was just an ordinary hunt, the Red King felt a chill run down his spine.

It was as if they had a premonition that something bad was going to happen.

After the Three-Eyed Golden Lion left the Lake of Life, the Crimson King felt increasingly uneasy, especially when the Three-Eyed Golden Lion locked onto a Light-attribute Soul Beast and began to chase it, constantly heading towards the outer edge of the Star Dou Great Forest. This ominous premonition reached its peak.

Its three heads twitched their noses twice, and then its expression changed drastically.

"Buhou, it's the aura of an evil human soul master!"

Ow—

The Crimson King roared to the sky and, without saying a word, spewed out three mouthfuls of terrifyingly hot hellfire. The fireballs of purple, red, and orange intertwined and formed a huge spiral-shaped pillar of fire.

On the other side, Cai Meier, who had just peeked out from the hillside to check if there was any trace of Lin Nuo around, watched helplessly as the three-colored spiral fire pillar rushed towards her.

Cai Meier: ? ? ?
