Douluo Continent: I had just reached my limit when the sky exposed me.

Chapter 90 Deterrence, Lake of Life

"However, I can guarantee that apart from you, who might be able to protect yourself with the super artifact, the Beast God beside you, as well as the other soul beasts of Douluo Continent, will definitely pay a heavy price."

"For two lifeless corpses that were merely the core of this precious land, the soul beast race has suffered such a devastating loss..."

Do you think this deal is worthwhile?

Gu Yuena stared intently at Lu Xiao, her purple eyes flashing intensely.

Anger, resentment, fear, surprise and doubt...

A mix of emotions.

She could sense that Lu Xiao's power at this moment was not an illusion; it was a genuine pressure from a god-king.

Even the essence of its power carried a supreme aura that even she found unfamiliar.

Add to that the fact that the mysterious Storm Dragon King has yet to appear, and the unfathomable depths of the academy itself…

Fighting head-on is absolutely the most foolish choice.

There was a long silence, lasting for more than ten breaths.

The restless elemental power surrounding Gu Yuena gradually subsided.

She gave Lu Xiao a deep look, as if she wanted to imprint this mysterious human in the depths of her soul.

"Dean Lu, excellent method."

Her voice regained its cool tone, yet carried a subtle, almost imperceptible complexity.

"I have remembered what happened today. Let's go."

Having said that, she didn't linger and flicked her sleeve.

He swept up the still-frightened Di Tian and merged his figure back into the void.

They vanished without a trace, as if they had never existed.

Seeing Gu Yuena leave, Lu Xiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The power transfer from the experience card was quickly interrupted.

The phantom image of the Creator's Ring behind him also dissipated.

What he just used was the [Level 1 Deity Experience Card (can be interrupted for 24 hours)] obtained from signing in.

Only with the blessing of the Creation God Ring could he barely possess the strength of a God-King.

Zhuang Zhou, standing to the side, was staring at Lu Xiao with an incredulous expression, completely wide awake.

He originally thought the dean was just keeping a low profile, but he never expected him to be so secretive!

The power he just felt made his soul tremble.

"Dean, you..."

Zhuang Zhou opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.

Lu Xiao patted him on the shoulder, resuming his lazy demeanor, and said earnestly, "See? This is true strength."

"So, Zhuang Zhou, you should sleep less and cultivate more in the future. Maybe one day you can reach my level."

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Zhou immediately snapped out of his great shock.

I yawned habitually.

She muttered a rebuttal under her breath: "Dean, you can't say that. You know I cultivate in my dreams too. Half of my martial spirit's power is in my dreams..."

Looking at his lazy appearance, Lu Xiao couldn't help but chuckle and shake his head, no longer insisting.

Everyone has their own path.

Zhuangzi's Dao may lie within that dreamscape where reality and illusion intertwine.

After this incident, Beidou Academy, under Lu Xiao's protection, once again safely survived another ordeal.

Above the sky, the Tai Chi symbol representing the interplay of ice and fire slowly dissipated.

But the dazzling golden light did not stop.

"Boom boom boom!"

Instead, it converges and surges with an even more magnificent momentum.

This time, the golden light no longer emanated from killing, evil, or extreme elemental power.

Rather, it is a life force that nourishes silently yet is vast and boundless!

This aura is invigorating, as if it can heal all wounds and bring life to all things.

[Ranking on the List of Opportunities, Third Place: Lake of Life]

Location: Core Area of ​​Xingdou Great Forest

[Opportunity Description: The core of the Douluo Continent's life veins converge, a manifestation of the purest and most primordial life force in the world. The lake water condenses a vast, almost liquid state of life energy, its essence at an extremely high level, one of the manifestations of the laws of life in this realm.]

【Core Efficacy】:
1. Inexhaustible Fountain of Life: Contains a vast and inexhaustible life force that nourishes all things and fosters the growth of spiritual plants. It is the ultimate healing and cultivation sanctuary that all living beings in the world yearn for.

2. Healing the wounds of the source: Its life energy level is extremely high, and it has a very strong healing and nourishing effect on the wounds of the source suffered by god-level powerhouses, which is far beyond the reach of ordinary life energy.

3. Sacred Ground for Soul Beast Breeding: It is the fundamental habitat, slumber, and reproduction site for the continent's top ferocious beasts. For the soul beast race, it is the cradle for the continuation of the race and the birth of the strong.

4. Weakening the Heavenly Tribulation: Cultivating and undergoing tribulation here can weaken the power of the heavenly tribulation to some extent by utilizing the vast life energy, thus increasing the success rate of tribulation.

[Blessed by the rules of the Heavenly Canopy: The source of the Lake of Life is nourished, increasing the activity and purity of life energy by 20%, enhancing its healing effects on injuries, and greatly improving its support for soul beast cultivation. Warning: This place is an absolute forbidden zone for the soul beast race, guarded by the Silver Dragon King and numerous ferocious beasts. Those who trespass will face certain death!]

[Belongs to: Starry Sky Forest]

Information is displayed.

The mainland has once again fallen silent!

"Lake of Life...The Core of Life on the Continent!"

"It can even heal the fundamental injuries of a god-level expert? This... is too heaven-defying!"

"The core of the Star Dou Great Forest! The territory of the Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena!"

"Most of the powerful figures on the previous Soul Beast Ranking probably reside there, right?"

While countless Soul Masters were astonished by the powerful effects of the Lake of Life, the glimmer of greed that had just risen in their hearts was instantly extinguished by the cold reality.

Unlike the duality of ice and fire, belonging to the Beidou Academy brings complex emotions.

All that remains in everyone's heart regarding the Lake of Life is pure awe and a reluctance to provoke it.

That's the lair of the Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena!

It is the lair of a group of terrifying and ferocious beasts, including Di Tian, ​​Xiong Jun, and Wan Yao Wang!

Should we go there and make a move?

Before you can even see the lake, it will probably be torn to pieces!

Even the ambitious Bibi Dong.

After seeing the description and ownership of the Lake of Life, I completely abandoned any such idea.

Before achieving the status of a Rakshasa god, she would never touch this hornet's nest.

Her targets for hunting spirit rings could only be the outer perimeter of the Star Dou Great Forest or other dangerous places.

They pinned their hopes on the future reward of a divinely bestowed soul ring, or on the adventure to find those lone 100,000-year-old soul beasts.

Star Forest, Lake of Life.

Gu Yuena and Di Tian had just emerged from the spatial fluctuations when they immediately sensed the difference.

The entire Lake of Life region was already filled with extremely rich life energy.

At this moment, it seems to have been injected with new vitality, becoming more lively and refined.

A faint golden halo even rippled across the lake's surface, a manifestation of the celestial rules' blessing.

"This is……"

Di Tian felt the life force nourishing his body like warm water, and his eyes revealed surprise. "My lord, the source of the Lake of Life seems to have been strengthened!"

Brigitte's elegant figure rose from the lake, a joyful smile on her face: "My lord, you've returned. With the arrival of the Heavenly Curtain Rules, the healing effects of the lake water and its assistance to our cultivation have been greatly enhanced."

Gu Yuena nodded slightly, a hint of understanding flashing in her purple eyes.

She felt the even more powerful and intimate life energy flowing into her body.

Although it had a negligible impact on her strength as a peak-level deity.

However, it has subtle but lasting benefits for healing old ailments and consolidating one's spiritual state.

More importantly, for ferocious beasts like Di Tian and Xiong Jun who have not yet broken through to the god level, as well as the entire soul beast race, this is undoubtedly a great blessing!

"Indeed, the opportunities in the heavens are not only favored by humans."

Gu Yuena said softly.

"With the blessing of this Lake of Life, it will be easier for you to break through the bottleneck, and you will have a better chance of dealing with the Heavenly Tribulation."

at this time.

Di Tianjiang recounted his previous experiences at Beidou Academy.

The other ferocious beasts that had gathered around Lu Xiao were told in detail about his sudden burst of power, which resembled that of a God-King, and his eventual forced retreat.

After hearing Di Tian's account, Xiong Jun let out a low growl of resentment, and the human face on the trunk of the Ten Thousand Demon King Tree also twisted.

The other ferocious beasts also showed expressions of anger and helplessness.

"My lord, are we just going to let the Beidou Academy occupy the remains of the two Dragon Kings?"

Xiong Jun asked in a gruff voice, his dark gold claws scratching fiercely at the ground.

Gu Yuena gazed intently in the direction of Beidou Academy.

After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "That Lu Xiao has unfathomable trump cards, and his burst of strength is by no means ordinary."

"It is not advisable to start another conflict before we have figured out its true nature. The matter of the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire should be put on hold for now."

She paused, her voice carrying a hint of determination and anticipation: "The most urgent task is to take advantage of the various opportunities brought by the Heavenly Canopy to enhance the overall strength of our clan. Once I truly break through to the God-King realm... then we can consider other matters!"

Upon hearing this, the ferocious beasts, though unwilling, understood that this was the safest option.

They responded in unison, "We will obey our lord's command!"

The city of killing.

Lu Bu stepped into this sinful paradise shrouded in dark red mist.

The intense killing intent permeating the air made his blood feel like it was boiling!

The Fangtian Halberd Martial Soul within his body emitted a series of eager hums.
It resonated strongly with the killing laws of this world.

"Hahaha! What a great place! It really is where my destiny lies!"

Lu Bu let out a wild laugh.

Feeling that his soul skill was not suppressed under the protection of the Heavenly Curtain Rules, his confidence soared even higher.

He couldn't wait to unleash his martial spirit.

The enormous halberd, wreathed in dark red malevolent energy, appeared out of thin air.

The halberd blade pointed straight to the sky, exuding an aura of dominance and slaughter!
The moment he released his martial spirit, a sudden change occurred!
"Buzz!"

Hidden deep within the city of slaughter is an ancient altar built from countless bones and the will to kill.

It was as if a ferocious beast that had been asleep for eons had suddenly awakened, bursting forth with a dazzling blood-red light!

The light instantly swept across the entire Killing City.

Everything was stained with blood!
A blood-red pillar of light, condensed to its extreme and composed purely of the laws of slaughter, flew directly towards Lü Bu's direction.

"who!"

"not good!"

Upon seeing this, Lü Bu was greatly alarmed, and the nine soul rings around his body flashed one after another.

Shockingly, this blood-red light seemed to transcend time and space.

Ignoring Lu Bu's attempt to block the halberd and his soul power defense, it pierced directly into his brow!
