Darkness instantly enveloped the surroundings, erasing all light from the world and even completely suppressing the aftershocks of thunder.
Tear!
A soft sound, like paper being torn apart, was calm yet jarring. No one could see anything, but they could clearly feel a terrifying presence descending, a chill that penetrated to the bone.
……
Star Dou Great Forest, Core Area
Di Tian's face was cold. A dark, rotating spatial passage floated in front of him. He was about to step in when he suddenly remembered Gu Yue's earlier instructions, paused, and withdrew his foot.
"Damn it, being wary of the divine realm's investigation is causing us endless trouble and making things extremely difficult!"
He cursed impatiently and stopped stepping in with his body. Instead, he used his black dragon claws and most of his senses to probe the spatial passage, and a powerful dragon might surged out from it.
……
Chant!
A dragon's roar, filled with extreme panic and fear, suddenly rang out. At the same time, a bolt of lightning erupted, barely dispelling a small patch of darkness. The pupils of the crowd, who had been holding their breath and staring intently, contracted sharply as they fixed their gazes on the bright area.
The lightning only dispelled the darkness within a radius of several dozen feet. Compared to the terrifying darkness that swept across the heavens and the earth, it was but a drop in the ocean, yet it was enough for everyone to see the scene before them.
Two jet-black dragon claws reached out from the void, their bodies covered with irregular jet-black scales. The lightning that struck the scales not only failed to cause any damage, but instead polished them even smoother. The oppressive force emanating from the dragon claws caused the heavens and earth to tremble.
With a single, massive dragon claw, a blue lightning tyrannosaurus rex was seized. Faced with absolute power, the hundred-meter-long dragon body was as small as a chick, held tightly in the claw, and then slowly dragged towards the deep, boundless spatial vortex behind it.
The father and son of Yulong Peak struggled desperately, their dragon bodies twisting wildly and unleashing all their thunderous power, but they could not budge the dragon claws in the slightest. They were firmly restrained and could not even move an inch. Their desperate roars echoed between heaven and earth.
"This is what you call a beast god?"
The moment the two dragon bodies were completely pulled into the spatial passage, a cold, disdainful voice came from the other end of the passage, carrying an overbearing arrogance.
Chapter 234 The Disheartened Yu Tianheng, Gu Yue's Generosity (Bonus Chapter for 800 Monthly Tickets)
The crack slowly closed, the last glimmer of lightning completely disappeared, and everything returned to silence.
call!
Golden Crocodile Douluo spoke with some difficulty: "Is that a god?"
Tangshan: In a sense, he is indeed a beast god, but from the perspective of cultivation, he is not.
"No, just a strong one."
Just then, Bi Ji appeared beside Golden Crocodile Douluo, her gentle smile returning, her tone as calm as if the earth-shattering pressure from before had never occurred.
Golden Crocodile Douluo descended silently, then silently returned to his tent, sinking into self-doubt.
Is he already obsolete of the times, or is the world developing too fast? Why were there so few Limit Douluos before he broke through his limits, but after he broke through, he encountered Limit Douluos one after another? What's wrong with this world?
Back at the camp, Xue Qinghe was still busy organizing things and hadn't returned yet, but Dugu Yan was already waiting at the entrance of Tang Shan's tent.
"Tangshan, you're back!"
Seeing Tang Shan's somewhat questioning gaze, Dugu Yan smiled and explained, "I just ran into His Highness the Crown Prince. He said you went out on business, probably related to that big battle earlier. So, did you gain anything?"
Tang Shan glanced around to make sure no one was paying attention to them, then simply opened his tent and let Dugu Yan in to talk.
Gu Yue slipped in with practiced ease, her movements so natural that Tang Shan was speechless.
Dugu Yan couldn't help but wonder: Why is she so skilled?
……
That's roughly what happened.
Tang Shan roughly explained the whole story to Dugu Yan. Since Xue Qinghe had directly told Dugu Yan that they had gone out, there was no need to hide too much.
"What? Gu Yue, you come from a reclusive family?"
What? Gu Yue, your family has quite a few Title Douluo powerhouses?
"What? Your family elders just killed two Title Douluos from the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan?"
Throughout Tang Shan's account, Dugu Yan was constantly astonished, and by the end, her mouth was agape in an "O" shape, unable to close for a long time.
"Meeting you is the worst luck they could have ever had."
After a long while, Dugu Yan couldn't help but sigh.
Tangshan: "If they didn't have malicious intent, then it might not be bad luck, but rather good luck."
Gu Yue crossed her arms and nodded slightly in agreement: all he wanted was to borrow some bloodline energy for cultivation. He could have just told her. It's not like she's stingy and wouldn't lend it. She deserved it for trying to take it by force.
"What about Yu Tianheng? Should we be careful around him in the future to prevent him from doing anything rash?"
Dugu Yan said cautiously.
Tang Shan shook his head: "Knowing that we were the ones who did it, actually, it's just your grandfather, you, His Highness the Crown Prince, and Gu Yue's people. As long as we don't make a fuss, no one will know that we eliminated the two Title Douluos of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan."
Just continue to treat Yu Tianheng as usual. As for the final outcome, let nature take its course.
……
Yu Tianheng sat blankly on the roof of the carriage specially provided for students by the Tiandou Royal Academy, staring at the boundless night sky with empty eyes, completely devoid of his former brilliance.
With his grandfather gone and his great-grandfather gone, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's top power was wiped out. He could almost foresee the outcome—nothing more than various forces swarming in to divide up the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's interests, leaving him at most a scrap. And the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, this top-tier martial soul, would at best become just another ordinary powerful martial soul circulating in the world, never to regain its former glory.
If Tang Shan knew Yu Tianheng's thoughts, he would definitely be speechless: the sect settings in Douluo Continent are already outrageous! Don't be fooled by the impressive names of the Clear Sky Sect, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect. In the end, they are all bound together by family bloodlines. They have no real knowledge inheritance or sect foundation to support them. They are called sects, but they are actually just large families maintained by blood ties. Once their top combat power is lost, the collapse of the sect is only a matter of time!
"Tianheng!"
The call came from under the car. Yu Tianheng glanced down unconsciously and saw Qin Ming looking up at him with worry in his eyes.
"Teacher Qin Ming."
Yu Tianheng climbed down from the car roof and walked up to Qin Ming, forcing a smile that looked more like a grimace: "I wonder what brings you here, Teacher?"
Looking at the young man in front of him who had gone from being spirited and energetic to being dejected and disheveled overnight, Qin Ming opened his mouth, but found that any words of comfort seemed pale and powerless.
Finally, he could only pat the other person on the shoulder and say softly, "Tianheng, get some rest. If you really can't handle the competition, then don't participate."
Yu Tianheng's lips twitched slightly, but he only gave a muffled "hmm" before turning around and getting into his carriage. He slammed the door shut, cutting off all the light from the outside world.
……
People's joys and sorrows are never shared. While Yu Tianheng was in complete isolation, Tangshan was experiencing an unprecedented and unexpected gain.
Just as the three finished discussing how to deal with Yu Tianheng, Bi Ji's voice came from outside the tent: "Gu Yue, Tang Shan, are you inside?"
Tang Shan casually pulled open the tent flap, and Brigitte, dressed in a light green dress, was standing outside. She glanced curiously at the three people inside the tent, and then handed a blue-purple bracelet to Tang Shan.
"This is the storage soul tool of the older Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Title Douluo. Everything they carried is inside. See if there's anything you can use."
"This……"
Tang Shan was completely stunned. He never expected that after Di Tian dealt with those two Title Douluo, he would send such a big gift. He didn't know how to accept it for a moment. After all, he had been watching the whole thing from the sidelines and hadn't done anything. He felt a little bad about accepting the gift for nothing.
"Tangshan, take it."
Inside the tent, Gu Yue pulled out a handful of snacks from somewhere, lazily resting her chin on one hand while slowly putting the snacks into her mouth with the other.
"Then thank you very much, Senior Brigitte."
Tang Shan thanked him sincerely and accepted the blue-purple bracelet.
Brigitte glanced curiously at the three people in the tent, then vanished without a trace in a flash.
Tang Shan closed the curtains again and placed the bracelet in front of Gu Yue, his meaning clear: he wanted her to open it.
Although Gu Yue looked uninterested, she still raised her hand and channeled her soul power into the bracelet to activate the storage soul tool. Then, she casually tossed it over, and with a series of crackling sounds, a pile of items poured out instantly.
Tang Shan's eyelids twitched violently. The first thing that caught his eye was seven or eight soul bones that emitted a strong fluctuation of soul power. Among them, the aura of the right leg bone was much stronger than the other soul bones.
Are these all ten-thousand-year-old soul bones? And is that right leg bone a hundred-thousand-year-old soul bone? The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan actually has so many good things hidden away!
Dugu Yan's eyes widened instantly, and her breathing became rapid. She had excellent eyesight and recognized it as a 100,000-year soul bone at a glance. In terms of rarity, a 100,000-year soul bone was far superior to a 100,000-year soul ring. After all, soul bones could be passed down from generation to generation, while soul rings could only disappear when the soul master died.
"Tangshan, do you want this soul bone?"
Gu Yue yawned lazily, her fair little hands shoving the pile of ten-thousand-year-old soul bones aside. She picked up the one-hundred-thousand-year-old right leg bone and casually waved it in front of Tang Shan.
As the great Silver Dragon King, how could her friend only use ten-thousand-year soul bones? Absorbing these things is too beneath him. When the opportunity arises in the future, she should give him a complete set of one-hundred-thousand-year soul bones.
Tang Shan thought to himself: Is this the charm of the rich woman Long? It's simply amazing!
Looking at the incredibly tempting 100,000-year-old soul bone before him, Tang Shan finally shook his head with difficulty: "Forget it, this soul bone is of the lightning attribute, which is completely incompatible with my strength attribute. My martial soul's instinct tells me that as long as I absorb a stronger strength attribute soul ring, I can reach the ultimate strength level. To avoid attribute confusion, I can't accept this soul bone."
If it were Tang Shan before he reached the second ring, his cultivation path was still undefined, and he would certainly not have been able to resist the temptation of a 100,000-year-old soul bone. But now he is a three-ring Soul Master, and his cultivation path and combat system centered on power have already taken shape and are extremely powerful. At this time, rashly absorbing a 100,000-year-old lightning-attribute soul bone would undoubtedly throw him into disarray and would be an unwise move.
Ultimate power?
Gu Yue blinked, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, and the image of the Golden Dragon King flashed through her mind—that guy seemed to be the ultimate power, but what exactly were the effects?
She couldn't recall it for a moment, and didn't delve into it. Her fingertip lightly touched the 100,000-year-old soul bone, her red lips slightly pursed: "It seems to be from a 100,000-year-old thunder serpent, perfect." Her eyes suddenly lit up, and she reached out and placed the soul bone into Dugu Yan's hand.
"Here, take this."
Dugu Yan held the warm 100,000-year-old right leg bone in her hand and instantly froze, her mind blank—she and Gu Yue had no connection whatsoever, so why would the other party give her such a valuable gift?
"Your martial soul is the Azure Scale Serpent, which is based on the fusion of serpent bloodlines. This Thunder Serpent right leg bone can not only add a portion of Thunder Serpent bloodline to you, but also bring considerable attack power. It is a perfect match for you."
Gu Yue crossed her arms, speaking as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
Dugu Yan nodded subconsciously, but then realized that she had been led astray by Gu Yue's thought process—this was not a question of whether it was appropriate or not, but whether it was really appropriate for her to absorb such a precious 100,000-year-old soul bone rashly.
"Take it without worry."
Gu Yue waved her hand, too lazy to argue with her, and pushed the pile of ten-thousand-year-old soul bones that had been pushed aside in front of Tang Shan. Her little face was full of seriousness: "Tang Shan, you can take these ten-thousand-year-old soul bones first. My family has a secret method that can increase the age of external soul bones by breaking ordinary soul bones. Once I find the secret method, I will help you use these soul bones."
Tang Shan couldn't help but ask, "Gu Yue, what did you keep for yourself?"
He knew that the person in front of him was the once terrifying Silver Dragon King, and that these soul bones were useless to her, but he still felt really bad about taking so many benefits for nothing.
He was fine with Xue Qinghe; he could help him make up for the regrets in the original work to repay the favor. But when it came to Gu Yue, he really didn't know how to repay this heavy gift.
Chapter 235 Another Turbulent Wave is About to Rise: Tangshan's Advice
Upon hearing Tang Shan's question, Gu Yue shook her head indifferently: "These are of little use to me, you can keep them yourself."
Tang Shan remained silent for a moment, then did not refuse again. He opened his storage soul tool and put away the remaining soul bones.
These soul bones most likely belong to Yu Yuanzhen and Yu Longdian themselves; otherwise, it would be unreasonable for them to carry so many soul bones with them.
Should we go and loot the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan?
A very tempting idea came to Tang Shan's mind: with the strength of Xiong Jun, Bi Ji, and Golden Crocodile Douluo, it shouldn't be too difficult to quietly plunder for a while. However, Tang Shan quickly dismissed the idea.
