Douluo Continent: You become gods, I become immortals

Chapter 61 The Invisible Little Guy!

As evening fell, Golden Crocodile Douluo, who had just returned from Qian Xunji's place with a full load of goods, stepped into his own mansion and saw a familiar figure in the center of the courtyard from afar.

He paused, his previously composed face instantly revealing an undisguised urgency, and strode forward.

"Daughter, how are you feeling? Is Zhang Qingxuan's treatment even working?"

Golden Crocodile Douluo's voice trembled slightly, and his aged hand directly touched Jin Ting's wrist, his powerful soul force probing into her meridians like a trickle of water, sensing her deeply.

Upon seeing this, Jin Ting's face regained its long-lost rosy glow, and she nodded with a smile: "Yes, Father, my injuries are much better now."

"The excruciating pain that felt like my meridians were being torn apart has disappeared, and my soul power is circulating much more smoothly than before."

Golden Crocodile Douluo withdrew his hand, his eyes gleaming.

As a level 98 Super Douluo, his senses were incredibly sharp. In just that one moment of contact, he confirmed that the wounds that had plagued his daughter for many years had indeed been mostly healed.

[It seems Zhang Qingxuan truly possesses extraordinary abilities; even the Grand Elder was helpless against this intractable disease, yet he managed to turn things around!]

"That's right, Father!"

Jin Ting suddenly took out a neatly folded piece of parchment from her bosom and handed it over.

"Mr. Qingxuan gave me a list, saying that hunting soul beasts according to the list would be of unexpected help to me!"

Upon hearing this, Golden Crocodile Douluo raised an eyebrow, took the list, and unfolded it. Even though he had seen many storms, he couldn't help but gasp in shock.

[Good heavens, Zhang Qingxuan really knows how to pick them! They're all rare soul beasts, powerful and ferocious—it's practically a list of rare soul beasts!]

And these soul beasts—

As the head of the Golden Crocodile Clan, Golden Crocodile Douluo naturally possesses extraordinary vision.

He stared intently and discovered that these seemingly ferocious soul beasts actually had a subtle connection with their Golden Crocodile Martial Soul.

If Jin Ting is absorbed in this sequence, there is definitely no danger to her, but what kind of help can it provide?

"What were his exact words?"

Golden Crocodile Douluo raised his head, staring sharply at his daughter, his tone carrying a hint of inquiry.

Immediately afterwards, Jin Ting recounted her conversation with Zhang Qingxuan word for word, including Zhang Qingxuan's expression when he mentioned her martial spirit's degeneration, and the seemingly joking but actually profound remark at the end, "Maybe I can surpass those people."

After hearing his daughter's retelling, Golden Crocodile Douluo's relaxed brows furrowed tightly again, his expression became extremely serious, and his eyes were filled with turbulent emotions.

"You mean, Zhang Qingxuan knew about your martial spirit's deterioration before providing this list, right?"

Golden Crocodile Douluo confirmed this again.

Although Jin Ting didn't know why her father was taking it so seriously, she still obediently nodded: "Yes, Father."

After receiving an affirmative answer, Golden Crocodile Douluo's gaze grew even more solemn as he stared intently at the thin list of soul beasts, as if it contained some earth-shattering secret.

"What's wrong, Father? Is there something wrong with the spirit beasts on this list?"

Upon seeing this, Jin Ting also felt a sense of unease and curiosity.

"No." Golden Crocodile Douluo shook his head first, then waved his hand, his tone leaving no room for doubt.

"Go back and get some rest. Keep this list with me for now. Don't show it to anyone else without my permission."

"Oh." Although Jin Ting was full of doubts, she knew her father's temper well, so she could only obediently nod and turn to leave.

Once his daughter's figure had completely disappeared from sight, Golden Crocodile Douluo finally let out a long breath, looking as if he had aged several years.

With trembling hands, he took out a yellowed family tree from his storage soul tool. It was a detailed record of all the core members of the Golden Crocodile Clan over the past few hundred years. It not only recorded the soul ring ratio of each person, but also detailed the types of soul beasts they hunted and their characteristics.

Three hours, a full three hours have passed.

The candlelight flickered, illuminating Golden Crocodile's wrinkled face. He held his forehead, his eyes bloodshot, yet his gaze was frighteningly bright.

[Soul Evolution — Could it really be related to the hunted soul beasts?]

This wild guess is the ultimate conclusion that Golden Crocodile Douluo deduced by combining the martial soul mutations of Li Yuntian and his wife, Zhang Qingxuan's miraculous medical skills, the characteristics of the soul beasts on the list in front of him, and the data of the ancestors recorded in the family genealogy.

He suddenly grabbed the heavy list from the table, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

[Alas—our entire Golden Crocodile clan truly owes Zhang Qingxuan an immense favor this time!]

This debt of gratitude is something that even giving everything one has could never repay!

Meanwhile, inside the small courtyard in the orange grove.

The night was as dark as ink, and the moonlight spilled like quicksilver across the ground.

Zhang Qingxuan sat cross-legged in the center of the courtyard, his body emitting a faint glow, using the ultimate essence of moonlight to continue to comprehend the profound power of heaven and earth.

However, what he didn't notice was that the array next to him suddenly emitted a faint light.

Inside the formation, the mysterious spirit egg that Zhang Qingxuan had obtained was undergoing subtle changes.

The once still egg suddenly swayed slightly, and then a hair-thin crack appeared on the surface of the eggshell, almost imperceptible.

Before long, a second and third crack appeared one after another, spreading rapidly like a spider web.

"With a soft crack, the eggshell shattered completely in two, but strangely, there was no bloody creature inside; it was empty."

A moment later, a faint, almost transparent halo of light slowly coalesced into a strange little creature the size of a palm.

Its specific appearance is unclear, but a general outline can be discerned.

It has big ears, a small body, and is very cute!

It blinked its bright, large eyes, curiously looking around before finally fixing its gaze on Zhang Qingxuan, who was cultivating.

The little guy seemed to feel a sense of familiarity with Zhang Qingxuan. He stretched out his tender little hand, bit his finger, and then turned into a stream of light, flying silently toward Zhang Qingxuan.

Arriving in front of Zhang Qingxuan, it did not disturb Zhang Qingxuan who was cultivating, but instead looked at Zhang Qingxuan curiously.

Finally, it carefully flew into Zhang Qingxuan's arms, found the most comfortable spot to curl up, and soon began to snore softly, sleeping soundly.

Zhang Qingxuan remained immersed in his cultivation, completely unaware of what was happening.
