Douluo's Demon Blade Thousand Blades and the Original Martial Soul

Chapter 65 Soul Gathering Turtle

After Lin Yizhang briefly introduced his gains to Dugu Bo and Zhang Fan, the three of them embarked on their journey to find soul beasts once again.

Zhang Fan wanted to obtain a pure attack power amplification soul skill for his fifth soul skill. After breaking through to become a Soul Master, he planned what kind of soul beasts he should hunt for his fifth soul ring. By consulting the data, he found more than a dozen suitable soul beasts, such as the Armored Dragon, Soul Gathering Turtle, Soul-Devouring Thorn Vine, Vajra Tiger, and Wood Spirit Soul-Gathering Flower.

The three of them were currently in a gathering place for soul beasts that were over 30,000 years old, while the soul beast that Zhang Fan needed was around 15,000 years old, so the three of them headed towards the outer area.

Along the way, Dugu Bo carried Lin Yizhang and Zhang Fan, flying slowly above the forest. Dugu Bo released his mental energy to carefully scan the situation below.

After searching for more than an hour, Dugu Bo finally found a Soul Gathering Turtle that was 16,000 years old next to a large pond below.

The Soul Gathering Turtle is an extremely powerful soul beast; few other soul beasts of the same age can match its total soul power.

With its abundant soul power, the Soul Gathering Turtle already holds an advantage when fighting other soul beasts of the same level. Combined with its formidable defensive shell, most soul masters or soul beasts won't bother it. Of course, soul beasts with higher lifespans or stronger soul masters will still prey on it.

The Soul-Gathering Turtle below was sleeping by the water. It couldn't detect Dugu Bo's mental scan, so it was still unaware of the impending danger.

This time, Dugu Bo didn't put Lin Yizhang and Zhang Fan down beforehand. Instead, he carried the two of them and quickly descended towards the Soul Gathering Turtle.

Just as Dugu Bo was about to step onto the Soul Gathering Turtle's back, the turtle realized the danger and tried to circulate its soul power to defend itself, but it was too late. Dugu Bo's foot, imbued with powerful soul power, landed directly on the turtle's back.

The shell of the Soul Gathering Turtle was instantly shattered, with most of the shell fragments flying everywhere. Dugu Bo used his soul power to protect Lin Yizhang and the other person.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Yizhang and Zhang Fan were unaware that Dugu Bo had already spotted the target soul beast. They saw Dugu Bo suddenly descend rapidly, followed by a loud bang. By the time they realized what was happening, the Soul Gathering Turtle was already on the verge of death, with only a few pieces of its shell clinging to its body.

Dugu Bo said, "A 16,000-year-old Soul Gathering Turtle is just the right age. Let's kill it quickly, it's about to die."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Fan immediately stepped forward and used his Dragon Pattern Spear to finish off the Soul Gathering Turtle with a single thrust, then began absorbing the Soul Gathering Turtle's soul ring.

Zhang Fan successfully absorbed the ten-thousand-year soul ring in just one and a half hours.

Seeing Zhang Fan stand up, Lin Yizhang asked curiously, "How was it? Did you get the soul skill you wanted?"

Zhang Fan said happily, "My fifth soul skill is 'Attack,' which can increase the attack power of the Dragon Pattern Spear by 100% and quickly penetrate the enemy's defense to deal damage. I am very satisfied with this soul skill."

Dugu Bo said, "Very good. Now that you have both obtained soul rings, you can leave first. With your strength, it won't be a problem for you two to get out of the forest. I'll go pick a Dragon Blood Grass for Yan Yan and take it back. We'll meet at the big hotel outside the forest."

After Dugu Bo left, Lin Yizhang and Zhang Fan headed out of the forest.

Walking through the lush forest, listening to the occasional roars of beasts from afar, Lin Yizhang felt as if he were in a primeval jungle fraught with danger.

However, Lin Yizhang did not feel afraid at this moment, but rather very excited, excited that he could freely move through this dangerous Soul Beast Forest.

Along the way, Lin Yizhang and Zhang Fan encountered many Soul Masters who came to hunt for Souls. When they encountered Soul Master teams, Lin Yizhang and Zhang Fan ignored them.

He only intervened to help when he saw a Soul Master who came alone to hunt Souls encountering danger, and after doing so, he didn't linger and continued walking outside.

Most of the Soul Masters who came to hunt Souls alone were commoners without any background or identity. Seeing them in trouble, Lin Yizhang and Zhang Fan, who were also commoners, could not stand by and watch them die.

When the two left the forest and arrived at the grand hotel where they had agreed to meet Dugu Bo, they found that Dugu Bo had already ordered a table full of food and was slowly enjoying it.

Lin Yizhang and Zhang Fan went over to say hello and then sat down to eat together.

After a hearty meal, before the sun had even set, the three of them did not linger. Dugu Bo once again suggested that Lin Yizhang and Zhang Fan fly towards Tiandou City.

By the time they returned to Tiandou City, it was already dark.

In just one day, Lin Yizhang and Zhang Fan obtained the spirit rings they desired. Lin Yizhang couldn't help but sigh inwardly: It's really good to have a Title Douluo who cares about me as a backer!

Lin Yizhang and Zhang Fan were taken directly to Dugu Bo's residence. Dugu Bo's residence had quite a few empty rooms, so Lin Yizhang and Zhang Fan stayed there for the night.

The next morning, Dugu Bo, Dugu Yan, Lin Yizhang, and Zhang Fan gathered at the dining table in the hall outside the kitchen to eat breakfast.

The breakfast was very lavish. Dugu Bo was not the kind of person who would eat simple food when he could afford delicacies, even though to him there was no difference between eating these foods and eating simple food.

After breakfast, Zhang Fan said, "I plan to go back and cultivate now."

When Zhang Fan said "go back," he meant returning to the small courtyard next to the Soul Arena.

Lin Yizhang also spoke up: "I need to go to the Nine Heart Begonia family. A couple of days ago, I made an appointment with Lingling's parents that you, Grandpa, would take me to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt souls tomorrow. However, I obtained a soul ring yesterday, so I need to go and tell them."

Dugu Bo said, "The Star Dou Great Forest is much more dangerous than the Sunset Forest. Zhong Yun and the others are hunting soul beasts that are about 30,000 years old, so they need to go into the inner circle to search for them."

Even though Zhong Yun has become a Soul Douluo, he might not be able to protect Ye Xin when fighting Soul Beasts, so I'll go with them this time.

I'll go see them directly tomorrow morning; you don't need to notify them, Yizhang.

Lin Yizhang nodded and replied, "Okay, Grandpa, then I'll go straight to refine pills later."

Dugu Bo took out a bottle of pills and handed it to Lin Yizhang, saying, "Taking one antidote pill will allow you to safely pass through the poison array outside the medicinal shrine. The effects of one pill will last for three days."

Lin Yizhang nodded and accepted the pills.

Dugu Yan said, "Then I'll absorb that Dragon Blood Grass later."

Everyone had their own plans, and soon everyone went about their own business.

After preparing ample food and water, as well as the necessary materials for alchemy, Lin Yizhang went to the Medicine Pu in Tiandou City to buy a lot of medicinal herbs before heading to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye in Sunset Forest.

Lin Yi-chang plans to stay in seclusion until the end of his vacation.
