Douluo Continent: An Adventure Begins in Wuhun City

Especially those simpletons like the Titan Ape.

“In that case, continue your search. At least don’t let him leave the forest. I don’t believe he can hide for long in his severely injured state. Once I kill that human, I will keep my promise and release the Blue Silver Emperor.”

After saying that, Chen Yao turned and left with the Blue Silver Emperor in disappointment.

Chapter 83: Taking the Poison

Chapter 82: Bone Removal

Four months later, inside the slightly decorated, somewhat luxurious cave.

On a large bed made of precious ancient wood, Chen Yao, sitting cross-legged, slowly opened his eyes, a glint of shrewdness flashing in them.

"In four months, I've increased my soul power by two levels after it was compressed and refined. That's not bad."

As Chen Yao felt the level 67 soul power surging within him, he pondered and smiled. This speed of soul power improvement was something he had never dared to imagine before in Martial Soul City.

But after the brief joy came a wave of anxiety.

Although his progress in soul power was encouraging, there was still no news of Tang Hao.

"Where exactly did the problem go wrong? How is it possible to not find it?"

Chen Yao was completely baffled, his brows furrowed slightly, and then he gave up trying to figure it out.

"Forget it, if we can't find him, we won't look anymore. Xiao Wu and the others know how important Tang Hao is, so they naturally won't let him go. I can't waste any more time here..."

As thoughts flashed through Chen Yao's mind, he suddenly shouted.

"A Yin!"

As soon as the words were spoken, a graceful figure, but wearing shackles, slowly walked into the cave.

Over the past four months, the girl has undergone many changes. Her once tender face has fully matured, her nose is now straight and delicate, her eyes are captivating, and she exudes an elegant charm.

She looked like an exquisite person who had stepped out of a painting.

However, the person was walking heavily and looking worried.

During this time, although Chen Yao was immersed in cultivation, giving A Yin some free time, now that she has come out of seclusion, wouldn't her previous nightmarish days be about to return?

"Ah Yin, is there still no news from Tang Hao?"

Chen Yao looked at Ah Yin in front of him, a fiery glint in his eyes, but his face remained calm and indifferent, as if he were simply asking a question.

"No, the Blue Silver Grasses haven't sent any messages back..."

Ah Yin shook her head, but seemingly afraid of upsetting Chen Yao, she added something else.

"But don't worry, I can confirm that Tang Hao is still inside the Star Dou Great Forest, under the control of Blue Silver Grass. He can't possibly step out."

Besides, as a human, he couldn't possibly hide in the forest for long. I'm sure we'll find his trail soon!

However, Chen Yao shook his head and said...

"Soon? I remember you said the same thing four months ago, didn't you? I can't wait that long."

Upon hearing this, Ah Yin panicked and was about to defend herself when a sharp pain suddenly shot through her chest.

Her eyes widened in disbelief as she looked down and discovered that a thick, dark tentacle had pierced through her chest.

"Although it didn't have much effect, thank you for taking care of me during this time. Rest in peace. After you die, your soul will merge with mine, and then you will live on in another way."

Chen Yao spoke politely, but his eyes flashed with an icy indifference that made everyone who saw him tremble with fear.

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yao pulled out the tentacle from Ah Yin's chest.

"thump!"

The next moment, Ah Yin's body fell to the ground with a thud, and she was no longer heard from it.

His face remained in shock, his chest was hollow, and blood stained the surrounding area, making him look like a broken rag doll, exquisite and tragic.

After confirming that Ah Yin had no further fluctuations in her aura, Chen Yao bent down and began to search her body.

A moment later, he curled his lips into a smile and suddenly pulled his hand out from the mangled flesh.

He was injured and clutching a hard object that emitted a faint blue light, leaving a scarlet mark.

"A 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone..."

Looking at the soul bone in his hand, still bearing the warm bloodstains, Chen Yao's face lit up with joy. He then glanced at Ah Yin, who was slowly rising with a scarlet halo around her.

"Unfortunately, the attributes are too different; even the Black Zhe couldn't correct them. It's not suitable for me, what a waste..."

Chen Yao felt a pang of regret, but didn't dwell on it too much. After putting away the soul bone, he turned and left without any hesitation...

However, not long after Chen Yao left.

Inside the cave, Ah Yin's body gradually grew cold, and the remaining will that lingered in the air was also about to perish.

Suddenly, a green light appeared out of nowhere and emerged into the cave, gathering Ah Yin's collapsing will and keeping it from dissipating.

Immediately afterwards, within the green light, a blurry figure with graceful curves appeared and disappeared.

The figure glanced at Ah Yin's re-formed will in the air, then at the slightly cool body on the ground.

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, with a flick of her sleeves, the crimson soul ring that had been condensing on Ah Yin's body shattered, turning into a surge of immense energy that dissipated into the air.

"Now that your soul beast foundation is completely destroyed, and I have re-infused you with life through my divine power, you can be considered a genuine human being. So it's not against the rules."

With a soft murmur, the phantom flicked its finger, throwing Ah Yin's consciousness into its body, then crushing it along with the flesh and soul on the ground, turning it into a pool of scarlet blood mist.

However, the blood mist did not dissipate, remaining enveloped by the surrounding emerald green and boundless life force.

The pool of blood mist seemed to reverse time, reforming and transforming into a perfectly pure physical body.

Looking at his masterpiece, a look of satisfaction flashed in the figure's eyes.

"In that case, it's done. You, Blue Silver Emperor, are lucky. If that evil fellow hadn't suddenly found a successor in this place and been gloating at the God King Council all day with his goodness, I wouldn't have gone to the trouble of reshaping your body."

The figure hummed softly. She had actually noticed the Blue Silver Emperor long ago, and it was indeed very much in line with her heritage.

Unfortunately, the identity of the Blue Silver Emperor meant that she was destined to be excluded from inheriting his legacy.

I was thinking of giving up and looking in other dimensions, but the evil I saw recently was just too infuriating.

She was so angry that she projected her image over, determined to create a legacy even if it meant interfering with the lower realms. However, she unexpectedly discovered the scene of Chen Yao's slaughter.

But she didn't stop it. If someone did it for her, it would reduce her energy to a minimum. Why not?

She even went so far as to shield those who were watching the cave from the tide.

This is why Chen Yao was clearly prepared to unleash the Ice and Fire Dragon King's soul bone and the Nine Nether Black Lotus to fight those 100,000-year-old soul beasts.

Surprisingly, there was no disturbance or obstruction, which allowed them to leave easily.

"However, the little girl carries a lot of resentment. Awakening with such a state of mind does not meet the standards for the inheritance of the God of Life. Oh well, we've already gone this far, so what's a little more?"

As she spoke, another shimmering green light emerged, enveloping the porcelain-white, beautiful body on the ground, followed by a purifying aura.

A moment later, the green light dissipated, and the girl on the ground had a completely different demeanor than before.

Even with its eyes closed, it exudes a gentle warmth that draws one close to all things, yet it also carries an air of majesty and superiority.

They cannot be climbed up to, but only inspire feelings of awe and worship.

"That's about it. The divine test has already begun. Little girl, I hope you won't disappoint me and waste all your efforts."

With that faint murmur, the blurry, verdant figure slowly disappeared into the halo of light.

Similarly, the glowing light inside the cave slowly diffused, restoring it to its previous state.

Only the young girl remained, lying on the cold ground.

Chapter 84 Bibi Dong's Guess

"First, go find Yu Xiaogang and retrieve the martial soul energy, then go refine the soul bone."

After leaving the Star Dou Great Forest, Chen Yao had a well-thought-out plan in mind, and he didn't bother to think about the unexpected smoothness along the way.

It would be best if killing the Blue Silver Emperor went unnoticed. Even if it did, with his various trump cards, those few hundred-thousand-year-old soul beasts wouldn't be able to stop him.

As he pondered, Chen Yao glanced around and saw a rather luxuriously decorated carriage passing by. He then went up to it in a friendly manner, chatted with it, and hopped on board.

As for the car owner, although he was quite frightened, he was unharmed. Chen Yao only lent him some gold soul coins for later use, and then he went outside to drive away.

He wouldn't kill without a cause if there were no conflict of interest.

He knew his sins were grave, so in his spare time he would try to do as much good as he could, even if it was just a little.

As the carriage slowly drove away from the area covered by the Star Dou Forest and headed towards the border of Tian Dou City.

Chen Yao was also gradually able to sense the existence of martial soul energy.

His expression froze slightly.

After leaving Sunset Forest, he passed through the Heaven Dou Empire and was able to sense that Yu Xiaogang was in a border town in Heaven Dou City.

But at this moment, he was moved to a place that was somewhat unexpected by Chen Yao.

What was he doing in Wuhun City?

Chen Yao was confused and hesitant, but in the end he decided to take the risk and go to Wuhun City. Retrieving the energy from Yu Xiaogang's body was of utmost urgency.

This concerns Chen Yao's sixth soul skill.

Thinking this, Chen Yao immediately spoke up, ordering the driver outside to change the route of the wealthy merchant who originally intended to go to Tiandou City.

The wealthy merchant, his face etched with sorrow, dared not resist. He pulled on the reins and rode off in a direction entirely different from before.

······

Several days later, Chen Yao stood in front of the gate of Wuhun City, looking at the familiar gate ahead, a hint of reminiscence in his eyes.

But then he stopped thinking about it and headed straight for the city gate.

"Stop! Show your ID."
