Douluo Continent: Steadily Growing Stronger in Shrek Academy

Chapter 125 Contra

Both soul beasts had cultivation levels of around 30,000 years. Huo Yuhao's absorption process was completed in just over an hour, while Li Yongyue, on the other hand, sat there for nearly three hours before completing the final absorption.

However, a slight change occurred, because the little girl Xiao Xiao also came to search for a spirit ring.

Just as Li Yongyue finished absorbing the spirit ring and everyone was preparing to find a spirit ring for Xiao Xiao, a powerful aura suddenly appeared, heading straight for Lin Chen.

It was clearly Lin Chen who had just absorbed the spirit ring.

With the help of the soul rings and soul bones, Lin Chen's soul power reached the mid-stage of level 82, officially making him a Soul Douluo.

However, his strength is not limited to this. After absorbing the Seven Kill Sword's attack power from the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear, he has reached the level of a Super Douluo.

This aura only flashed by and disappeared in an instant; under Lin Chen's control, his aura was quickly concealed.

As for the manifestation of that aura just now, it was unavoidable.

Sensing this aura, everyone became vigilant once again.

"Such a powerful aura, even I feel a strong sense of crisis," Cai Meier said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing Cai Meier's words, everyone quickened their pace to leave, hoping that the owner of that aura wouldn't come after them.

For some reason, when this aura appeared, a sense of familiarity welled up in Zhang Lexuan's heart again.

"Dean Cai, I'll go take a look," Zhang Lexuan suddenly said.

"No!" Cai Meier said decisively. "Even I felt a huge threat from that aura just now. Although you have two 100,000-year soul rings, you are not a Super Douluo after all. Going there would be extremely dangerous. Moreover, the place where that aura was located is in the inner core area, which is several times more dangerous than here."

"Dean, that aura felt very familiar to me. He must be someone I know," Zhang Lexuan said anxiously.

Only when facing Lin Chen could the senior sister lose her composure; normally, she was always calm and collected in the face of adversity.

Hearing Zhang Lexuan say this, Cai Meier hesitated. She couldn't gamble the lives of the entire team on Zhang Lexuan's words.

Just then, Xiao Xiao spoke up as well.

"Dean, I also feel a sense of familiarity."

Hearing this, Cai Meier was also taken aback.

"Whose aura could make Xiao Xiao and Le Xuan feel familiar?" Cai Meier frowned and pondered.

"Lin Chen!"

"Xiaotu!"

Zhang Lexuan and Xiao Xiao said in unison.

"Lin Chen? How come he's in the Star Dou Great Forest?" Cai Meier asked, puzzled.

"When we arrived here, Lin Chen's cultivation had already reached a bottleneck. He's probably here to obtain his eighth soul ring," Zhang Lexuan said.

As she said this, Zhang Lexuan also felt a surge of anger. He dared to come to this dangerous place alone, and he did so without telling her.

I clearly asked him if he wanted to come along!

Zhang Lexuan now guessed Lin Chen's purpose. He didn't want her to be in danger, but couldn't she stand by him through thick and thin?

What does he take me for?

"Now that we know it's Lin Chen, let's go find him!" Huo Yuhao said.

Huo Yuhao, who always had a strong sense of unity, also suggested going to find Lin Chen.

"What about Xiao Xiao's soul ring?" Cai Meier asked.

"Dean, let's find Xiao Tu first. I can ask him to help me find a spirit ring. He's the one who made us worry, hehe."

Hearing everyone say this, Cai Meier agreed.

So everyone set off for the cave where Lin Chen was.

On the other side...

"Phew! Finally, the absorption is complete." Lin Chen stretched and let out a long sigh of relief.

"We can't waste this fur; it might fetch a good price, or it might have some other use."

Thinking of this, Lin Chen summoned the Seven Kill Sword and slashed at the corpse of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, storing some valuable parts into his storage bag.

After finishing all this, Lin Chen left and headed straight towards the academy.

Lin Chen had originally planned to stay here for one or two months. He was truly lucky; he didn't know if it was his own good fortune or if he had benefited from being chosen by Huo Yuhao.

With a raised hand and a surge of soul power, Lin Chen instantly moved the boulder blocking the cave entrance, allowing bright sunlight to stream into the cave.

Lin Chen summoned the Seven Kill Sword and flew away on it.

Following the mental energy markers he had left when he entered, Lin Chen walked out of the forest along the same path he had taken.

After walking for about an hour, Lin Chen had reached the living area of ​​soul beasts aged 30,000 to 40,000 years.

To avoid attracting attention and interference from aerial spirit beasts, Lin Chen simply landed on the ground, activating both his invisibility veil and life domain, and headed towards the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest.

With Lin Chen's current strength, even a Limit Douluo probably wouldn't be able to detect anything, unless they were observing from within ten meters of him.

Meanwhile, after searching for a while, Zhang Lexuan and the others also arrived at the cave where Lin Chen had been.

Looking at the mangled corpse of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear on the ground, everyone was shocked, except for Wang Qiu'er, whose eyes flashed with sorrow and anger.

"This...this is a 100,000-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear?" Huo Yuhao exclaimed in surprise.

Cai Meier sighed and said, "Judging from her figure, it should be."

Hearing Cai Meier say this, Wang Qiu'er's eyes filled with even deeper sorrow. Those who died were all people she had once protected! What's more, the one in front of her was a being that had existed for 100,000 years, and was from Uncle Xiong Jun's clan.

But I seem to have been hunting for spirit rings with them, so I have no right to say anything.

Upon hearing Cai Meier's words, everyone's hearts immediately filled with worry.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, which is 100,000 years old, is incredibly powerful. Even if Lin Chen could kill it, he would have to pay a considerable price.

That's what everyone was thinking, including Zhang Lexuan.

However, Senior Sister was not a little girl like Wang Dong'er. Calmness and composure were her style. At that moment, she simply said to everyone, "I'm sorry everyone. Because of my selfishness, I delayed the time for finding a soul ring for Xiao Xiao and also delayed everyone's return to the academy."

"Why talk about this? Since we're all out together, there's no need to divide things up so much," Cai Meier said.

"Yes, Senior Sister, Lin Chen is our classmate. Now that we've run into him, we should ensure his safety and go back to the academy with him," Huo Yuhao said.

Do you think this statement fits Huo Yuhao's character?

"Yes, Senior Sister, shall we look again?" Wang Dong'er asked.

Zhang Lexuan shook her head and said, "No need. He probably hasn't encountered any danger. Let's find a spirit ring for Xiao Xiao first!"

Hearing Zhang Lexuan say this, no one objected.

"Wait a minute!" Huo Yuhao suddenly said.
