Douluo Continent: The Peerless Tang Sect - Sharingan Intercepts Tianmeng

Chapter 140 Elder Xuan: I can say I have fulfilled my mission.

When they sensed the soul beast aura released by Xiao Qiang and the even more terrifying ferocious beast aura that rushed towards them, the other Shrek members who hadn't been taken away by Elder Xuan all turned ashen-faced.

"How are your injuries?" Xue Di asked with concern as she approached the auspicious beast. Because she was worried about the auspicious beast and Xiao Qiang's situation, she didn't even have time to casually slash at Elder Xuan with her sword.

The auspicious beast shook its head. "Luckily you arrived in time. I'm alright here, but..."

The auspicious beast glanced in the direction of Huo Yuhao, whom it had just knocked away, and gritted its teeth in anger. "Damn humans! If I ever see them again, I'll find a way to skin them alive and feed them to the other soul beasts!"

After berating Elder Xuan and Huo Yuhao for their swift escape, the auspicious beast turned its gaze to the other Shrek Academy students. "You guys said you wanted me as your spirit ring, right?"

"It's a misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding!"

The Shrek members quickly tried to explain, but the auspicious beast wasn't going to listen.

When the auspicious beast opened its mouth, the flames of light shot directly at the group. Normally, the group should have been able to dodge the beast's attack, but with the Snow Emperor's oppressive aura, they couldn't even move. They could only let the flames of light scorch their bodies, and finally be slowly burned to death.

"Hmm?" After the Shrek Academy members were burned to death, as the flames gradually subsided, only skeletons remained of the group. Normal human bones could not withstand the extreme fire of the auspicious beast, but soul bones could. Therefore, Xiao Qiang quickly saw a skull that was at least 60,000 years old and a right leg bone that was at least 80,000 years old.

Seeing the sudden appearance of the spoils, Xiao Qiang casually picked up the two soul bones.

"You're not a soul beast, but a human?" Because Xiao Qiang stopped urging Xue Dan to release the ferocious beast aura, and because he also restrained his soul bone, the auspicious beast realized the difference between Xiao Qiang and a soul beast after calming down.

Xiao Qiang did not deny it. "But we are not enemies, at least not right now."

The auspicious beast looked at the Snow Empress and then at Xiao Qiang. "Indeed, no matter what, thank you for my matter this time."

It had just wanted to die. It was in a situation where it couldn't live or die, but Xiao Qiang saved it. Even though Xiao Qiang is human, the fact remains that he saved it.

"Come a little closer, I have something for you."

Following the auspicious beast's instructions, Xiao Qiang stepped forward to face it. Then, the auspicious beast's eye on its forehead released a powerful force of destiny, which converged at a peak and shot towards Xiao Qiang's forehead, forming a phantom image of the Eye of Destiny above Xiao Qiang's head.

"Consider this your reward for saving me this time. You can use this eye to strip away the luck of others, whether they are people or soul beasts. You can use this eye to extract their luck and then transfer it into your own body to increase your own luck."

"However, since it is only an eye projected from my power, you can only use it three times. After three times, this Eye of Destiny will automatically disappear, but the fortune you seize through the Eye of Destiny will still be yours."

The auspicious beast explained the purpose of the Eye of Destiny to Xiao Qiang, and as Xiao Qiang listened to its explanation, his first reaction wasn't to care about the number three, but rather...

"You can extract the fortune of a human and a soul beast and turn it into my fortune? Can you extract any kind of fortune, no matter how powerful? Even the fortune of that human you just swatted away?"

Xiao Qiang didn't care much about the amount of luck. After all, the luck of a hundred Dai Huabins couldn't compare to that of one Huo Yuhao. If he could really extract other people's luck for his own use, one Huo Yuhao's luck would be enough. The other two could even be considered extra.

Hearing Xiao Qiang say this, the auspicious beast was stunned for a moment. Then he thought of how Huo Yuhao was almost taken by his fate, and how he survived even after failing.

This incident allowed Huo Yuhao to control the power of destiny and make his luck even stronger. Although he failed, Huo Yuhao also successfully escaped from his own grasp. This kind of luck is obviously extraordinary.

However, as extraordinary as it may be, it is an auspicious beast that controls destiny. All the soul beasts in the entire Star Dou Great Forest rely on the destiny it uses to increase their cultivation speed. If it didn't have such terrifying control over destiny, how could it double the cultivation speed of all the soul beasts in the entire Star Dou Great Forest?

"His luck is strong, but when it comes to controlling luck, I am the true emperor. No matter who he is, anything related to luck cannot escape my influence. You can absolutely plunder his luck, but..."

The auspicious beast pondered for a moment. "What I gave you was a gift to thank you for saving me. If you help me avenge myself, how should this be considered?"

Xiao Qiang scratched his head. "You don't need to worry too much. It was Xue Di who ordered the rescue. I just came up with a plan and helped carry it out."

The auspicious beast pondered for a moment. "This control over the power of destiny is my way of thanking you. If you truly strip one of those two of their luck, I'll give you something else then."

"Okay." Although the fact that Huo Yuhao's luck could be deprived was already better than anything else, there was no reason to refuse the benefits that others wanted to give, especially since the benefits that the auspicious beast could give should not be too bad.

While Xiao Qiang was talking to the auspicious beast, after a while, the Crimson King also arrived with a 100,000-year-old soul beast and a 15,000-year-old soul beast.

The Crimson King was taken aback when he sensed the aura of the Snow Emperor, a 700,000-year-old soul beast. Then, a darkness suddenly appeared from the void. When the darkness dissipated, a middle-aged man with long black hair reaching his heels appeared.

"Snow Empress, what are you doing here?"

…………

Near Shrek Academy on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Thanks to Xue Di's priority in ensuring Xiao Qiang and the auspicious beast's safety, Elder Xuan had a brief respite.

Just then, Huo Yuhao was blasted away by a fireball from the auspicious beast, which happened to be not far away. Xuan Lao then used his mastery of earth to carry Huo Yuhao away underground.

As for the other trainees...

The moment the auspicious beast was no longer in his hands, and the aura of a ferocious beast of 700,000 years appeared, Elder Xuan knew that if he had slowed down even a little, not to mention the other students, he might have even lost his own life there.

Huo Yuhao was lucky enough to be by his side because of the attack from the auspicious beast. As for the students who were still by the auspicious beast's side, or who were about to be by the side of the 700,000-year-old soul beast, he really had no way to save them.

Fortunately, Huo Yuhao had already obtained a thousand-year soul ring before this, and he survived.

After checking on Huo Yuhao's condition, Elder Xuan took a sip of wine to comfort himself. "Yuhao is alright. This time, we can barely be considered to have fulfilled our mission."
