Douluo Continent: I am a Hyperion larva, and I devour Xiao Wu at the start.

Chapter 16 Growth, People from the Spirit Hall Arrive

Jiang Chen shrunk his size, then found the tallest tree and climbed up to the top.

Lying on the treetop, Jiang Chen began to rest.

Jiang Chen, lying prone, gazed at the entire Soul Hunting Forest in thought:

"Now that I've grown to three meters tall, after devouring all the remaining soul beasts in this forest, I should be able to grow even larger."

"Once this forest has finished devouring everything, we can't stay nearby. We need to go further afield, to the Soul Hunting Forest, to devour more soul beasts."

It directly devoured the soul beasts of the entire Soul Hunting Forest, along with the soul masters and soldiers of the Spirit Hall.

Jiang Chen felt that the Spirit Hall would definitely send a high-level Spirit Master to capture him.

Then we might as well run further away, since there's no way to track us in this Douluo Continent world anyway.

Before going to eat Ah Yin, Jiang Chen planned to grow his body to over 5 meters tall.

After all, the larger the body size, the more energy it needs, and it probably won't grow as fast as it does now in the future.

As Jiang Chen pondered, time passed little by little.

As the sky began to darken, Jiang Chen felt that he had fully recovered.

Jiang Chen then jumped down from the treetop and continued hunting soul beasts in the Soul Hunting Forest.

The four soul beasts that previously besieged Jiang Chen were already the strongest soul beasts in terms of age and strength in this Soul Hunting Forest.

Therefore, after they were dealt with and devoured by Jiang Chen, he easily dealt with all the soul beasts in this forest.

Jiang Chen extended a claw from the orange crystal on his chest and grabbed the corpse of the soul beast he had killed.

After devouring the soul beast, Jiang Chen continued forward.

However, Jiang Chen hadn't gone far when he discovered that there was no road ahead.

"Have we reached the wall yet?"

Looking at the wall in front of him, Jiang Chen realized that he had already slaughtered his way through the entire Soul Hunting Forest.

Looking at the Soul Hunting Forest behind him, Jiang Chen pondered for a moment.

Although he advanced directly from a wall in the Soul Hunting Forest, any soul beasts he encountered along the way were basically devoured by Jiang Chen.

However, this does not mean that all the soul beasts in the entire Soul Hunting Forest were completely devoured by Jiang Chen.

There must still be soul beasts that Jiang Chen hasn't devoured in this Soul Hunting Forest.

However, these red soul beasts are already very rare, and Jiang Chen needs to conduct a thorough search to find them all.

"Forget it, it's too much of a waste of time." Jiang Chen decided not to continue searching for the remaining soul beasts bit by bit in this Soul Hunting Forest.

Looking at the wall in front of him, Jiang Chen instantly transformed into his complete form.

Hypa larvae measuring 3.2 meters appeared.

After consuming a number of things, Jiang Chen grew another twenty centimeters in size.

From the moment Jiang Chen entered the Soul Hunting Forest until the end, the soul beasts and soul masters in the forest together increased Jiang Chen's size by a total of seventy centimeters.

Jiang Chen was already quite satisfied with this rate of growth.

Jiang Chen raised his scythe and swung it down at the wall of the Soul Hunter Forest.

After tearing down the wall, Jiang Chen went straight out through the destroyed wall.

Jiang Chen was quite satisfied with the wall he had damaged.

Jiang Chen's current behavior is almost equivalent to indicating that he has been here and made a tourist visit.

After destroying the wall, Jiang Chen shrunk his size again and began to leave.

Jiang Chen decided to head to other cities, where the Soul-Hunting Forests awaited his exploration.

The next day.

The gate to the Soul Hunting Forest where Jiang Chen was hunting was piled high with wailing Soul Masters.

"My lord, all the Soul Masters in the forest have been cleared out."

The Spirit Hall's Spirit Masters reported to the Spirit Masters who had been urgently dispatched here by the Spirit Hall because of Jiang Chen's actions.

"To think that a single beast could devour most of the soul beasts in the entire forest, and not only that, the law enforcement team and soldiers of this Soul Hunting Forest suffered such severe losses."

Rao Shang looked at the Soul Masters being treated in front of the Soul Hunter Forest gate, his tone filled with suppressed anger.

No, these people who were rescued are no longer Soul Masters. Their Martial Souls and Soul Power have been devoured by Jiang Chen.

The Spirit Hall Soul Master who was reporting to Rao Shang whispered to him:

"My lord, this soul beast not only devoured most of the soul beasts in this forest, but it also has the ability to devour soul master martial souls and soul power."

Rao Shang, who was urgently dispatched, had no idea about Jiang Chen.

On the contrary, this Spirit Hall Soul Master understood Jiang Chen better, since he could see their commonalities just by looking at the surrounding Soul Masters.

Upon hearing the words of this Soul Master, Rao Shang's eyes widened immediately:

"What you're saying is true?"

Rao Shang took a few steps to the Soul Master, grabbed his shoulder, and lifted him up.

The Soul Master, who was being watched by Rao Shang, immediately began to speak:

"Yes, sir, basically all the surviving Soul Masters have lost their Martial Soul and Soul Power."

"Not only that, sir, a similar soul beast also appeared in Notting City."

This Spirit Master from the Spirit Hall had clearly done his homework, and then he continued:

"So I boldly guess that this time the soul beasts probably first appeared in Notting City."

"Then, for some reason, this soul beast came to the Soul Hunting Forest again and began to devour other soul beasts."

Hearing the Soul Master's words, Rao Shang fell into deep thought.

Nottingham?

In Rao Shang's memory, Nottingham should be a tiny city, right?

Even the Spirit Hall within Notting City is merely a branch of the Spirit Hall.

But in such a city, such a strange spirit beast has appeared.

Rao Shang had never heard of a soul beast capable of devouring a soul master's martial soul and soul power.

However, Rao Shang was not sure if such a soul beast had never existed, after all, he was only a level 68 Soul Emperor.

"It looks like the situation needs to be reported up the chain."

Rao Shang pondered for a moment, then turned to the Spirit Hall Soul Master in front of him and asked:

"Have you investigated the Soul Masters that Soul Beast devoured in Notting City?"

Rao Shang felt that since only one Soul Master in Notting City was attacked by that Soul Beast, he might be able to find some clues from this Soul Master.

Upon hearing Rao Shang's words, the Spirit Hall Soul Master who had reported to him was speechless.

He hadn't actually investigated that; he only knew that there was a Soul Master in Notting City who had been attacked.

Seeing that the Soul Master in front of him didn't say anything more, Rao Shang knew that he didn't understand.

After putting it down, Rao Shang decided to go to Notting City to see the first Soul Master who had been attacked by this Soul Beast.

"Close the Soul Hunter Forest and make arrangements for the medical treatment here."

After saying that, Rao Shang led two or three Spirit Masters from the Spirit Hall to Notting City.
