Douluo Continent: An Adventure Begins in Wuhun City

Upon hearing this, the group was taken aback, realizing what Elder Wang meant. Many of them looked troubled, but quickly their expressions softened, and they all sighed and spoke up.

"Indeed, extraordinary measures are needed in extraordinary times. If the Heavenly Dou Empire doesn't know what's good for it, this is all we can do. The Heavenly Dou Empire alone can't make much difference."

Just as everyone was accepting the idea, one person raised a different opinion.

"Why are you all so pessimistic? Perhaps before we can even implement our policies throughout the entire Heavenly Dou Empire, we will have already discovered the whereabouts of Chen Yao or His Highness?"

Upon hearing this, some people looked at this newly promoted Title Douluo with the eyes of someone looking at a fool.

"Discovered Chen Yao's whereabouts? You make it sound so simple. Do you know that Chen Yao, with the strength of a mere 7-ring Soul Saint, forcefully killed two Title Douluos right in front of everyone when surrounded by more than a dozen of us Title Douluos?"

If it weren't for the Pope's intervention, I'm afraid even if all of us combined, we wouldn't have been able to capture him. Let alone whether you can guarantee that you were on duty when you discovered Chen Yao, even if you were on duty and discovered him, do you have the confidence to take down such a vicious person by yourself?

Even if you're confident, Chen Yao is the Pope's lifelong love. Can you guarantee you can capture him alive without harming a single hair on his head?

Old Wang asked three questions in a row without any expression, immediately silencing the person who had spoken, whose face turned extremely ugly.

It was only at this moment that he realized that the orders given by Bibi Dong were so demanding that they were almost impossible to complete!

"Hehe, Elder Wang, there's no need to be angry. This young man is a newly appointed member of the council and is unaware of the inside story. I hope he will forgive him. Let's elect the person in charge first. After all, everyone knows this is a tough job, and I'm afraid no one will be foolish enough to take the bait again."

At this point, those who were close to the person who had spoken began to speak on their behalf, subtly changing the subject.

Old Wang glanced at the man, then, too lazy to pay any more attention, nodded and said.

"I do know someone like that."

"Who?"

"His name is Chen Ming. He is from the same village as Chen Yao. Although they are not closely related, he was recommended by Chen Yao to enter the Spirit Hall, so there is still some connection. Some time ago, influenced by Chen Yao, he gained the favor of the young prince and rose to become a genius in the Spirit Academy. Some time ago, he was very supportive of the search for Chen Yao. This time, he will be in charge, and I believe he will not refuse."

"Chen Ming? A mere student, isn't his strength too low? If the Pope blames us, we won't know how to explain ourselves!"

Some people frowned upon hearing this.

"This person is quite talented. He has already reached the Soul King level at the age of 20, which is enough to take charge. Furthermore, he has an ambiguous relationship with Chen Yao and the young prince. If something goes wrong in the future, he can take responsibility and not implicate others."

Upon hearing Elder Wang's words, the others' eyes lit up with excitement, and they showered him with compliments.

"As expected of Elder Wang, his thinking is sharp and his strategies are masterful. We are truly in awe!"

Old Wang smiled upon hearing this.

"Since no one has any objections, then let's pass on the message as soon as possible."

"Yes!"

Soon, the enormous machine that was the Spirit Hall began to operate, and at the same time, Chen Ming, who was at the Spirit Academy, also received a notification from his superiors.

"it is good!"

Inside the room, Chen Ming looked at the letter, which asked him to take charge of the search for Qian Renxue. He couldn't contain himself and slammed his hand on the table in front of him.

However, seeing that Qian Renxue might appear with Chen Yao, Chen Ming's expression turned somewhat gloomy.

"Chen Yao, you are now despised by His Holiness the Pope, who has issued an arrest warrant for you. Let's see who can protect you now!"

Chen Ming's tone was menacing, his heart brimming with confidence.

Chen Yao's strength was only known to the higher-ups of the Spirit Hall, so Chen Ming naturally had no way of knowing it. He secretly vowed that if he found Chen Yao's whereabouts, he would definitely find an opportunity to kill him!

Chapter 192 Desiring to Seize the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm

Slowly opening his eyes, Chen Yao felt the surging soul power within his body, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up. Every breakthrough and absorption of a soul ring brought a different experience, and this feeling of controlling power was intoxicating.

He has now completely absorbed the soul ring with a soul power of 60 years. The moment he broke through the barrier, he was directly pushed to level 85 by the immense soul power.

This was only because he kept compressing the empty and hollow soul power within his soul ring; otherwise, he might have been able to advance to the level of a Title Douluo in one fell swoop.

Similarly, this spirit ring also granted Chen Yao two terrifying spirit skills.

A distorted, lightless world.

Designate a region spanning ten thousand meters horizontally and vertically, and seal it off. Within this region, the sun and moon lose their light, yin and yang are reversed, all things are distorted, and time collapses.

If the seal on this world cannot be broken through effective means, one's mind will be constantly distorted and one will completely fall into depravity due to the bizarre and fantastical nature of the world without light.

No matter how long the creatures within are trapped or how much torment they endure, it is but a fleeting moment to the outside world.

The solution is simple: one only needs to have a soul power stronger than Chen Yao's to alleviate, counteract, or even destroy the anomalies in the world without light.

However, if one does not possess strength that completely overwhelms Chen Yao, this distorted, lightless world will be a nightmare and a graveyard for countless people!

It should be noted that Chen Yao is already an 85-level Soul Douluo at this moment, and the next step will be to become a Title Douluo.

How many people in the entire world dare to claim that they can crush Chen Yao?

Furthermore, the terrifying power of this soul skill cannot be demonstrated in the Douluo Continent.

As long as Chen Yao advances to the Title Douluo level, even if Bibi Dong possesses the inheritance of the Evil God King and has reached level 99, Chen Yao is confident that he can make her obediently bow down with his ordinary strength.

This soul skill is practically prepared for Chen Yao's future battle against the gods.

The immortality of gods also means enduring eternal torment. A moment in the outside world is equivalent to ten thousand years of torment in the inner world, enough to drive those gods with eternal life completely mad.

Chen Yao could almost foresee the fate of the gods who would fall at his hands in the future.

Aside from the distorted, lightless world, Chen Yao's other soul skill wasn't particularly outstanding.

Dark Nightmare Demon Body.

Similar to the evolution of the Dark Body, it can further enhance the strength of the body, as well as the range and power of each soul skill, on top of the original foundation.

It may seem simple, but the effects it can produce are astonishing.

At least, under the Dark Nightmare Demon Body state, Chen Yao's physical strength is already sufficient to use those two million-year-old soul bones at will!

Feeling the two new soul skills he had just acquired, Chen Yao was delighted, a smile on his lips, and felt extremely comfortable. He felt that with these two powerful weapons in hand, he was now truly invincible and could kill indiscriminately, even the gods!

"Brother Yao!"

"Ah Yao!"

"teacher!"

Upon seeing Chen Yao wake up, the women immediately surrounded him, looking concerned.

Chen Yao smiled and pressed his palm to indicate that he was alright before reassuring the women.

"Ah Yao, now that you've absorbed the spirit ring, hurry up and come with me to Heaven Dou City. Ah Yin and Er Long miss you terribly!"

Tang Yuehua spoke up at this moment.

If she were to encounter Chen Yao alone, she would naturally not lead him into the lion's den. Instead, she would take Chen Yao and wander the world with him, choosing to possess him alone.

However, Chen Yao was surrounded by many women, forming a small circle that shared a common hatred towards her. There was no other way but to pull in Ah Yin and Liu Erlong to fight against these women.

"Heaven Dou City is the closest to the Spirit Hall, and it's obviously an easy target. As Brother Chen Yao is the Spirit Hall's most wanted man, what are your intentions in leading Brother Chen Yao to Heaven Dou City?"

At this moment, Qian Renxue spoke softly.

Just kidding. How could Qian Renxue not know what Tang Yuehua was planning? Chen Yao's group of women was already giving her enough headaches. How could she let a few more join in? Otherwise, it might really turn into a war.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yao fell into deep thought. Perhaps it was because he was worried about the Spirit Hall's presence in Tiandou City, since his strength was now no longer a threat to Bibi Dong.

But then he suddenly thought of something.

That was the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, which was snatched away by that group of ferocious beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest.

He possesses an unprecedentedly pure soul power without any impurities. If one could absorb all of it, wouldn't it directly elevate his strength to the level of a Title Douluo?

By then, not only will the Spirit Hall be able to protect itself, but even gods will be able to protect themselves!

He hadn't thought of it before because he was afraid that Gu Yuena wouldn't be able to suppress those brutal beasts, but now that he's been added to the mix, what about now?

For a moment, Chen Yao's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he looked at Gu Yuena.

"There should be an Ice Silkworm inside the Star Dou Forbidden Zone, right?"

Gu Yuena was taken aback upon hearing this and asked with some curiosity.

Yes, there is, but how did you know?

"Never mind that. How many years has the Ice Silkworm been drained of its soul essence by those guys in the forbidden zone? How much of its soul essence is left?"

Gu Yuena gave Chen Yao a strange look. Although she couldn't figure out how Chen Yao knew the deepest secrets of the forbidden area, she was too lazy to think about it. After pondering for a moment, she said in a low voice.

"The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm was originally brought back by Emperor Tian from the extreme cold region. He intended it for me to use to heal my injuries, but after trying it, I found that it did not benefit my injuries at all, so I gave it away as a reward."

Although the essence of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's soul power could help them quickly increase their soul power, they gradually discovered that the essence of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm also helped them alleviate the effects of the Heavenly Tribulation. Therefore, they didn't exhaust its resources, only using it at crucial moments, resulting in the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm still having more than half of its soul power essence remaining for absorption.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yao's eyes lit up.

With most of the essence of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, it should be enough to boost his soul power to level 90, right?

"Take me to the forbidden zone. I want that Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm!"

Chen Yao spoke up without hesitation.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena hesitated for a moment, thinking that her subordinates were currently relying on the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's abilities to delay the arrival of the Heavenly Tribulation and thus maintain their lives.

But after hearing Chen Yao's unquestionable tone, he gritted his teeth and nodded.

For Chen Yao's sake, she could only make things difficult for her subordinates.

The other girls listened to Chen Yao and Gu Yuena's conversation with some confusion. The forbidden areas of the Star Dou Forest, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, and the ferocious beasts were all completely outside their knowledge. Even Qian Renxue, who had read extensively in the Spirit Hall's books, was at a loss.

"Brother Chen Yao, what are you talking about? What kind of forbidden beast is this?"

Unable to contain her curiosity, Qian Renxue finally couldn't help but ask.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yao snapped out of his reverie, looked at the girls, and fell into deep thought.

He didn't intend to explain for the other party; he was just thinking about how the women would handle it if he entered the restricted area.

After thinking for a while, he hesitated and said...

"You may come in with me, but almost all the beasts there are over 20 years old, with some even reaching 90 years old. It's very dangerous, and a great battle may break out. Remember to stay behind me and never leave my side."

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue and the others were stunned. If Chen Yao's voice hadn't been so solemn, they would have thought he was joking.

"9.9 million years? Brother Chen Yao, are you kidding me? A 100,000-year-old soul beast is already comparable to a Title Douluo, so wouldn't a 900,000-year-old one have already become a god?"

Qian Renxue still found it hard to believe.
