Douluo Continent: From Internal Martial Arts to the Law of Heaven and Earth

Golden Crocodile Douluo, Xiong Jun, and Bi Ji quietly disappeared, no longer following Tang Shan and his companions. Previously, the core area required extra caution, but now, in the mixed area, Tang Shan's strength was more than enough to move freely.

A vast, ocean-like spiritual power spread outwards from Tang Shan's body, forming an invisible giant net that covered an area of ​​several miles. Every blade of grass and every spirit beast's aura was precisely captured, meticulously searching for its target.

"Let's each take one side," Gu Yue said to Tang Shan, her silver eyes brightening slightly as she released her spiritual power.

Tang Shan nodded, condensing his circularly spreading mental energy into a beam, drawing a semicircle, and searching for a suitable soul beast.

Gu Yue did the same, her spiritual power extending like a long river of silver light, echoing Tang Shan's spiritual power, and casually asked, "How many years does a soul beast need to live?"

"Zhu Qing needs a dark cat-type soul beast that is just over a thousand years old, while Zhu Yun can find a soul beast with strong spiritual power and outstanding close combat ability, with an age of just over ten thousand years," Tang Shan replied.

Zhu Zhuyun's second spirit ring had a lifespan of nine hundred years, which was a real pity as she couldn't reach a second ring with a lifespan of a thousand years. Fortunately, after cultivating internal martial arts, her physical abilities greatly improved, and she successfully reached a third spirit ring with a lifespan of three thousand nine hundred years. Now, with her martial soul reverting to its ancestral form and consuming immortal herbs, Zhu Zhuyun can barely attempt a fourth spirit ring with a lifespan of ten thousand years.

In fact, Tang Shan opposed Zhu Zhuyun's attempt because her foundation was too weak. However, she was very determined, so Tang Shan had no choice but to agree.

Two streams of spiritual energy, as vast as oceans, swept through the mixed zone of the Star Dou Great Forest, intertwining to form a detection field with no blind spots, almost imperceptible to all soul beasts. A few soul beasts with keen senses barely caught a trace of a cold and majestic aura, and immediately shrank into a ball, not daring to move, as if afraid of being targeted by that terrifying being.

"What terrifying mental power!" Golden Crocodile Douluo exclaimed, feeling the terrifying energy enveloping the forest.

Tang Shan and Gu Yue possessed extraordinary talent, and their mental strength was equally outrageous. Golden Crocodile Douluo could conclude that their mental strength was now on par with his own in terms of level; the only difference was the amount of accumulated power.

If their opponents weren't so exceptional, Golden Crocodile Douluo believed that Tang Shan and Gu Yue would be able to crush everything with their mental strength alone.

"There's a 1,500-year-old dark ghost cat here. Is that a suitable age?" Gu Yue was the first to make the discovery, and with a slight smile, she asked Tang Shan.

"The age limit is a bit too high. I estimate that Zhu Qing's maximum age is around 1,200 to 1,300 years. Moreover, this Dark Ghost Cat is a top-level soul beast, so the risk is really too high."

Tang Shan raised his hand to interrupt Zhu Zhuqing, who was about to speak, and shook his head at Gu Yue.

"Alright, I'll look again." Gu Yue showed no disappointment and continued to search with great interest using her mental power.

Compared to directly ordering the ferocious beasts to capture the target, Gu Yue preferred the process of searching personally, especially when searching together with Tang Shan.

Chapter 376 Tangshan's Test for Gu Yue

The dark figure moved through the forest, making no sound except for the faint sound of its body passing through the air. Even when landing or running at high speed, it remained completely silent.

His massive body shattered the air, his powerful muscles brimming with explosive force. Each step he took caused the ground to tremble slightly. He followed closely behind the shadowy figure, rapidly closing the distance.

boom!

Tang Shan stomped his foot hard on the ground, causing it to collapse instantly. He used the momentum to accelerate a second time, like a whirlwind, and caught up with the speeding black figure.

"Little kitten, trying to run away!" A sinister smile appeared on his face, and his palm, as big as a fan, suddenly shot out with tremendous force, grabbing straight for the neck of the dark figure.

Roar!

The dark figure suddenly ducked, dodging the hand that was gripping his neck, then flipped over and leaped in the opposite direction, lunging straight at Tang Shan's face. Its sharp claws gleamed with a chilling light in the dim daylight.

Tang Shan scoffed, completely disregarding the shadowy figure's counterattack. His massive hand, imbued with inner strength, thrust forward to meet the chilling claws.

Tear!

The claws gripped the massive hand without any resistance, producing a piercing cutting sound, but causing no harm to Tang Shan. The shadowy figure sensed something was wrong and tried to escape, but it was too late.

Tang Shan's palm struck the chest of the shadowy figure, which was exposed by the outstretched claws. The next moment, a series of dense, ear-piercing bone-crackling sounds followed.

Ugh!

A mournful cry rang out, and the lithe black figure crashed to the ground, grass clinging to its body, making it look somewhat disheveled.

Seeing the eerie presence that was still pitch black in front of him, Tang Shan was not surprised. He grabbed the other party by the neck and stepped back the way he came.

Facing the thousand-year-old soul beast in his hands, Tang Shan had no restraints. He was confident in his control over his power, and that palm strike just now had definitely shattered all of the beast's vertebrae from the thoracic spine down.

"Ghost Leopard, this is Shadow Transformation, right? The effect is pretty good, with all-around amplification plus the ability to escape shadows. If Zhu Qing can obtain it, her strength should increase significantly."

……

Rumble!

Fireballs, ice spikes, earth spikes, and light blades—a continuous barrage of elemental attacks poured forth from the silver-haired girl hovering high in the sky. Elemental power flowed and surged at her fingertips, crashing directly towards the ground.

On the ground, a snow-white fox dodged and weaved amidst the attacks, narrowly avoiding them each time with a light and agile movement.

hum!

Seemingly enraged by the relentless elemental attacks, the white fox suddenly leaped up, weaving and twisting in the air, leaving behind afterimages. Its clear and bright eyes flashed with spiritual light, and two mental attacks shot out directly from its eyes, targeting the silver-haired girl in the air.

Bored, Gu Yue frowned slightly as the white fox in front of her launched a counterattack, a hint of impatience flashing in her eyes. She made no attempt to defend herself, letting the white fox's attacks bombard her mental sea.

Squeak!

The white fox let out a miserable cry, its body trembled violently as it leaped through the air, blood flowing from its seven orifices. After a few thuds, it crashed to the ground, its body twitching slightly, clearly indicating that it had suffered an extremely severe mental shock.

This is a spiritual confrontation. If the attack fails, the soul skill will backfire and cause great damage to oneself.

Supported by the swirling wind, Gu Yue descended slowly, landing lightly on the ground. She lifted the white fox by the scruff of its neck, examined it from head to toe, a faint smile playing on her lips. With a satisfied nod, she disappeared back into the depths of the forest.

……

"Phantom Fox and Ghost Leopard. I didn't expect to encounter them one after another after a fruitless day." Tang Shan looked at the big cat in his hand and the little fox that Gu Yue was carrying, and sighed.

"Maybe I'm just lucky today." Gu Yue shook the white fox in her hand, her silver eyes curving into crescents, and turned her beautiful eyes to Zhu Zhuyun beside her. "Take it and absorb it. This soul beast tried to attack me with its mind just now and suffered a serious backlash. The soul shock of a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast should be much smaller."

"Thank you." A complex emotion flashed through Zhu Zhuyun's mind, and she looked earnestly into those bright silver eyes, expressing her sincere gratitude.

"Zhu Qing, this is your Ghost Leopard." Tang Shan threw the Ghost Leopard to the ground and waved to Zhu Zhu Qing, who was standing to the side.

"Thank you, teacher." Zhu Zhuqing took a few quick steps, took out a dagger, and pierced the neck of the paralyzed ghost leopard.

Seeing that her younger sister had begun to absorb the spirit ring, Zhu Zhuyun stopped being coy and decisively ended the life of the ten-thousand-year-old white fox. After the spirit ring was condensed, she also sat cross-legged on the ground and began to absorb it and break through.

Seeing that the two sisters had officially begun absorbing the soul rings, and after Zhu Zhuyun had overcome the initial soul shock and her aura had gradually stabilized, Tang Shan took Gu Yue's hand and led her to sit down under a big tree.

"What do you need me for?" Gu Yue blinked her beautiful big eyes, her long eyelashes fluttering, and asked curiously. Clearly, Gu Yue thought Tang Shan had something to say to her.

"What, can't I talk to you if there's nothing wrong? You are my..." Tang Shan stopped mid-sentence, because he suddenly realized a very serious problem: although the two of them had tacitly acknowledged their relationship, they had never openly confessed their feelings, which was not good.

"What's wrong?" Gu Yue's silver eyes were filled with pure confusion. She tilted her head, wondering why Tang Shan's words had stopped abruptly.

Tang Shan took a deep breath, barely calming his somewhat agitated thoughts. He had to resolve this matter as soon as possible, otherwise there would always be something imperfect about it.

Despite the turmoil in his heart, Tang Shan spoke softly, "It's nothing, I just remembered there's something I haven't done yet, and I plan to do it in a while."

"I see." Gu Yue didn't think much of it and didn't even notice that Tang Shan hadn't confessed to her. After all, she was a virgin dragon who had been sleeping and recovering since birth, and she had no experience in love or even in society.

As for the Dragon God's legacy, let's set aside how much of it is actually fabricated. Would a normal dragon put its romantic memories into its legacy?

It can only be said that Tangshan and Guyue are a rather peculiar couple. They've hugged and cuddled quite a bit, and Tangshan even promised to kill her first, yet their actual relationship hasn't been confirmed yet. They're truly exceptional.

After a long while, Tang Shan finally remembered why he had brought Gu Yue here. He embraced the girl, gently stroked her silver hair with his fingertips, and asked softly, "Gu Yue, after we get back this time, will we set off immediately, or stay in Tian Dou City a little longer?"

The warm breath brushed against the girl's earlobe, turning Gu Yue's small ears a light pink, and the tips of her ears trembled slightly.

The girl tilted her head slightly, a faint blush rising to her cheeks, her voice ethereal and clear: "You can arrange it, I'm fine with anything."

"I'm fine with either, you decide this time." Tang Shan kicked the little ball back again, which made the Silver Dragon King's pink lips pout slightly, but Tang Shan's next words made the girl's heart flutter with joy.

“You always listened to me before, but this time I'll listen to you. You'll be in charge of making the arrangements. Wherever you say we're going, I'll go.”

"Let me think about it." Her voice was ethereal and clear, yet it couldn't hide her joy. What Gu Yue cared about wasn't that Tang Shan said he would listen to her, but rather the gentleness in his voice.

Looking at the girl's exquisite smile, as beautiful as a fleeting flower, her eyes sparkling and captivating, Tang Shan's heart was deeply touched once again. He was even more grateful for their encounter in the Starry Sky Forest. Such a lovely girl, if he had missed her, it would have been a great regret.

This made Tangshan feel that the future hybrid bloodline was becoming increasingly absurd. All the talk about being in dire straits, having to choose between humans and animals, and being caught in a dilemma was nonsense. They didn't even look at where this dire straits came from.

The Demon Emperor wants revenge on your father; your father is the ringleader in the Abyss Plane; your brother-in-law was responsible for the extinction of the Soul Beasts—his sins are utterly heinous.

To be honest, if a certain digital human is able to defeat the Silver Dragon King in the future, Tang Shan thinks there's a high probability that some Buddha is pulling the strings behind the scenes. After all, when it comes to personality stitching, who's the best? I, Tang Shan, am a member of the Divine Realm Committee.

"What are you thinking about?" Gu Yue saw Tang Shan staring at her and starting to daydream again. She couldn't help but gently tap his head with her slender fingers, her eyes full of coquettishness.

"Gu Yue, I have a question for you, and you must answer it seriously." Tang Shan suddenly looked at the girl with a solemn expression and said.

Seeing Tang Shan's serious expression, Gu Yue sat up straight, her little face serious: "Ask away."

Tang Shan: "If a peerless expert were to cultivate in seclusion for many years and then discover that the world had suddenly become unrecognizable, and wanted to understand why, would he separate a portion of his soul and essence to create an avatar and send it out to investigate?"

Gu Yue thought for a moment and shook her head firmly: "Impossible. Since you said earlier that she is a peerless expert, it means that her strength in this world is still top-notch. If she is top-notch, why is she so cautious?"

Seeing Gu Yue's firm rebuttal, Tang Shan's lips twitched slightly, and he asked again, "What if that powerful person is not only unparalleled in strength, but can sweep across the entire world, and she also has a grudge against the people of that new world? What do you think she would do?"

"Then we'll definitely act immediately, destroy everything, settle scores, and avenge those we have!"

Gu Yue's answer was perfectly reasonable, which plunged Tang Shan into a long silence. Was the Silver Dragon King's wisdom really that "astounding"?

"Gu Yue, if you were that powerful figure, would you think about understanding them first, then surpassing them, and finally destroying them?" Tang Shan was still somewhat unwilling and probed further.

Gu Yue frowned instantly, giving Tang Shan a strange look. She raised her small, white hand and touched Tang Shan's forehead: "Tang Shan, are you alright? That was my idea just now. How could I be so stupid as to think about surpassing the opponent when I can be sweeping aside and taking revenge? What's the point of that? Is there something wrong with those twin cyclops? It seems like your intelligence has dropped a lot."

Tangshan: "..."

Sure enough, my Silver Dragon King is not the Silver Dragon King of 20,000 years in the future at all. She has lost her "world-shaking" wisdom and only has the wisdom of an ordinary person. This is truly a cause for celebration.

Tangshan can basically conclude that the future Silver Dragon King either slept for 20,000 years and became mentally impaired, or he was cursed by the Sea God; otherwise, he could never be so abstract. Look at the current answers—how normal and down-to-earth they are! The future is beyond what the word "abstract" can describe.

However, there is a problem now. The Silver Dragon King suspects that my "wisdom" has declined. What should I do?

Chapter 377 One-Way Trip

The fluctuations in his soul power gradually subsided, and Tang San, having exited his cultivation state, opened his eyes, a faint purple glint flashing in them.

"How is it?" Yu Tianheng crossed his arms in front of his chest, looking Tang San up and down, wondering what kind of soul skill the other party had obtained.

Tang San smiled and said, "Brother Yu, the soul skill is quite effective. I call it Parasite. Its effect is to plant seeds on the opponent and activate them at a crucial moment to bind the opponent."

"It's actually pretty good, a decent binding skill." Yu Tianheng replied noncommittally. What he cared about was never how strong Tang San's Blue Silver Grass was, but rather the opponent's twin martial souls.

"Brother Yu, what do we do now?" Tang San was somewhat confused after completely absorbing the spirit ring, unsure of what to do next.

"Test the effects of your soul skill first, and let me see what it looks like after it's released," Yu Tianheng said in a deep voice.

Tang San nodded, and two yellow spirit rings appeared beneath his feet. A thicker, more supple Blue Silver Grass appeared on his right hand. He shouted, "Blue Silver Entanglement!"

Brush brush!

Thick blue silver grass sprouted from the ground and coiled itself around a large tree not far away, its sharp thorns embedding themselves in it, leaving several deep marks.

"Second Soul Skill, Parasite, activate!" Another roar echoed through the mountains and forests as Tang San clenched his right hand tightly with immense force.

*Pfft!*

Dense vines grew out of the tree trunk, forcefully splitting the entire tree apart and sending wood chips flying.

Card wipe!

The tree fell with a thud, crashing heavily to the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust.
