The two returned along the same route, but before they had gone far, a huge roar suddenly came from ahead, and the ground shook violently.

Lu Chen and Jiang Nannan exchanged a glance, stopped in their tracks, and quickly found the nearest cover to hide themselves.

Lu Chen made a hand gesture, and Jiang Nannan understood immediately. She then spoke to Rotom in her mental sea:

"Rotom, drone mode, scout ahead."

Upon receiving the order, Rotom rapidly transformed and ascended into the air, its electromagnetic waves spreading forward.

Not long after, Rotom's voice echoed in both of their minds at the same time.

"50 meters ahead, a Shadow Scorpion is chasing two Soul Masters."

The investigation continued, and Rotom provided more detailed information: "The Shadow Scorpion is 5120 years old, with one Soul Master at level 35 and a level 13 Soul Master."

As soon as Rotom finished speaking, the target was already in front of Lu Chen and the others.

The people being chased were a middle-aged man and a little girl.

The middle-aged man was almost entirely covered in bruises. The three spirit rings, two yellow and one purple, floated behind him, flashing alternately. His black cauldron spirit vibrated continuously. He stood firmly behind him, fighting and retreating at the same time.

The little girl was panting as she ran. She suddenly stopped and turned around.

A yellow spirit ring lit up behind her, and three large black cauldrons appeared out of thin air, surrounding her.

"The cauldron trembles!"

The little girl shouted out.

The three large cauldrons slammed down on the Shadow Scorpion with a dull thud, attempting to slow it down.

The Shadow Scorpion swung its massive pincers.

boom! boom! boom!

With three consecutive muffled thuds, the three large cauldrons were sent flying. The difference in their levels was simply too great; the attack had no effect whatsoever on the five-thousand-year-old soul beast.

Lu Chen looked at the little girl in front of him, with a black ponytail, green eyes, and three black cauldrons.

Seriously? Is the world that small?

This must be Xiao Xiao, after all, the three cauldrons are so recognizable that it's almost impossible to mistake them.

"Xiao Xiao, you go first, I'll hold this beast off..."

But before he could finish speaking, the middle-aged man was struck by a Shadow Scorpion's pincers.

He spat out a mouthful of blood, and his entire body flew backward, crashing heavily into a patch of ten-year-old bamboo.

A large number of white spirit rings floated up.

"Uncle Chen!" Xiao Xiao shouted anxiously, her eyes slightly red.

The Shadow Scorpion raised its venomous stinger high, aiming at the middle-aged man's heart, ready to deliver a fatal blow.

We can't watch the show anymore.

Lu Chen turned to look at Jiang Nannan and made a hand gesture.

Act quickly and save them!

Jiang Nannan nodded decisively.

The tactic was decided instantly. The most disgusting ability of the Shadow Scorpion is its Shadow Cloaking technique, which allows it to sneak into the shadows at any time to launch a surprise attack. This move must be disabled first.

"Rotom, mimicry, magnetic lock."

At the same time, the third soul skill, [Electromagnetic Overclocking], is activated!

Jiang Nannan infused her soul power, and a blue stream of light shot out, accurately hitting the Shadow Scorpion that emerged from the shadows.

A powerful electric current crackled, and the surrounding shadows were instantly dispelled by the blinding electric light. The Shadow Scorpion convulsed, its Shadow Cloak technique broken in an instant, leaving it completely exposed in the open.

good chance!

The three spirit rings behind Lu Chen lit up simultaneously.

First Soul Skill: Gravity Control.

Lu Chen locked onto the Shadow Scorpion, doubling the gravity and simultaneously doubling the gravity on himself.

With a thud, the Shadow Scorpion was knocked to the ground by the sudden heavy pressure, its eight legs sinking deep into the mud, making it difficult to move for a moment.

Second Soul Skill: Teleport!

Lu Chen's figure flashed and disappeared into thin air. The next instant, he appeared in mid-air thirty meters above the Shadow Scorpion.

Third Soul Skill: Dragon Soaring Kick!

Lu Chen's right leg suddenly burst into flames of raging dragon fire, the flames turning a violent dark red, and the surrounding air was distorted and deformed by the high temperature.

The power begins to build up, and its strength accumulates.

The body plummeted rapidly.

Double the gravity was perfectly integrated into this flying kick.

The wind whistled in his ears as Lu Chen, engulfed in flames, kicked straight at the Shadow Scorpion's head.

The Shadow Scorpion sensed the threat of death and began to struggle violently, its pincers flailing wildly as it tried to protect its vitals.

But it's too late!

"Die!"

A cold glint flashed in Lu Chen's eyes, and he kicked down hard with his right leg.

Boom—

The deafening explosion echoed throughout the forest.

A violent shockwave rolled outwards, sending dirt and gravel flying everywhere.

The smoke and dust gradually dissipated.

The purple millennium soul ring floated in mid-air.

The Shadow Scorpion's proudly hard shell couldn't even withstand the damage for a second.

Lu Chen's kick created a huge, clear hole in the head of the Shadow Scorpion.

Green bodily fluids splattered all over the ground.

The Shadow Scorpion, with five thousand years of cultivation, died on the spot, without even managing to twitch.

Lu Chen jumped down from the Shadow Scorpion's corpse. He looked at the corpse in front of him and nodded in satisfaction.

Not bad.

He said the Soft Bone Rabbit martial spirit was overpowered.

He already has gravity control and teleportation, and now he has the ability to ignore defenses. He can't even imagine how awesome it would be if he added invincible invincibility and intangibility in the future.

Ugh.

Sure enough, whether it was the Soft Bone Rabbit or Rotom, only he himself knew the hardships he had endured in terms of martial soul along the way.

Jiang Nannan walked over, looked at Lu Chen who was still crossing his arms and trying to look cool, and shook her head helplessly.

"There are still people here! You may be shameless, but I certainly am!"

I have my pride too!

Lu Chen retorted.

The middle-aged man finally came to his senses. He endured the excruciating pain and, with Xiao Xiao's help, stood up and clasped his hands in a fist salute to the two of them.

"Thank you both for saving our lives, young heroes. My name is Xiao Chen, and this is my niece, Xiao Xiao. If it weren't for your help today, my niece and I would probably be dead."

Xiao Chen spoke sincerely, but his eyes held awe; he had clearly seen the power of that kick just now.

These two young men are quite old, but their strength is exceptionally astonishing.

Xiao Xiao also snapped out of her shock. She peeked half her head out from behind Tie Niu, her emerald green eyes blinking as she looked at Lu Chen and Jiang Nannan.

"Big sister, big brother, you are so amazing! Thank you for saving me and Uncle Chen."

Xiao Xiao's voice was clear and lovely, and she had a grateful smile on her face.

Big sister?

He's clearly the older brother!

He was very unhappy with how Xiao Xiao was addressed!

Seeing that Lu Chen's expression was a little off, Xiao Xiao quickly covered her mouth, thinking that she had said something wrong.

"Let's leave here first. Such a commotion just now will probably attract a lot of soul beasts."

After Jiang Nannan spoke, Lu Chen didn't say anything more about how she addressed him.

The four cleaned up the battlefield and quickly left the Mingdou Mountains.

Mingdou City, Inn.

The four sat around the table, and Lu Chen asked, "Why did you come here? You don't seem to need to hunt for spirit rings."

Lu Chen was still very curious about why he had encountered Xiao Xiao in such a remote place.

It couldn't have been something like attaching a soul ring to the Nine Phoenixes' Auspicious Flute, could it?

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen glanced at Xiao Xiao, then sighed heavily.

"I can't lie to you two about how you saved my life. Actually, Xiao Xiao has twin martial souls. We came here to add the first soul ring to Xiao Xiao's second martial soul."

Twin martial souls?!

Jiang Nannan looked surprised. If she remembered correctly, a genius with twin martial souls, if properly nurtured, could be guaranteed to become a Super Douluo, and there was a high probability that he could break through his limits.
