Douluo Continent: The Peerless Tang Sect, Angels and Rakshasa Return

Chapter 219 - Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear: You're so high and mighty!

With the help of the baby bottle, Huo Yuhao's soul power recovered faster and faster. When it was almost exhausted, he only needed a quarter of an hour to restore his cultivation to nearly 50%.

Just then, Huo Yuhao suddenly opened his eyes. He stood up unsteadily, walked quickly to Huo Zhanji, who was frozen into an ice sculpture, and with a wave of his hand, removed the extreme cold from Huo Zhanji's body.

Once the chill unique to the extreme ice fades, the remaining ice blocks are naturally no longer a concern.

In the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, there was a rustling sound, and broken ice flowers fell to the ground in pieces. Huo Zhanji also collapsed to the ground, exhausted, with a dull thud.

"Feel sorry."

Huo Yuhao looked at Huo Zhanji with a slightly apologetic expression, his face full of shame, but Huo Zhanji didn't seem to mind. He nodded silently to Huo Yuhao, indicating that he was alright.

The group sat cross-legged again to recover their soul power, and the guard duty at this stage naturally fell to Xiao Xiao.

About half an hour later, Huo Yuhao and Huo Zhanji opened their tightly closed eyes and stood up from the ground.

"I see you also know one of my Tang Sect's ultimate techniques, the Purple Demon Eye! Could it be that you're also a disciple of my Tang Sect?" Huo Yuhao stepped forward, patted Huo Zhanji's shoulder lightly, and asked in a low voice:

"Who guided you into this path? If it was the senior disciple, why haven't I seen you before!"

"scare!"

In an instant, a fine layer of sweat appeared on Huo Zhanji's forehead, and his heartbeat quickened.

How could he possibly know who else in the Tang Clan was besides those few famous ones?

However… since Huo Yuhao's ancestor mentioned having a senior brother, then perhaps there's also a senior sister, right?!

Thinking it over, Huo Zhanji tentatively said, "The person who guided me into this field is a beautiful older sister."

"A woman!" Huo Yuhao glanced at Huo Zhanji suspiciously, thinking to himself: [Besides Jiang Nannan, Xiao Xiao, and Tang Ya, what other women does my Tang Clan have?]

"Oh! You were taken in by Sister Tang Ya in Heaven Dou City, right!" Xiao Xiao exclaimed excitedly. Huo Yuhao, standing to the side, was speechless, thinking to himself, "Xiao Xiao, you need to be more careful! She found out everything you knew in just one sentence!"

Upon hearing this, Huo Zhanji was overjoyed and hurriedly nodded, replying repeatedly, "Yes, it's her!"

Seeing that he couldn't get any information from him, Huo Yuhao had no choice but to give up in frustration. He sighed and walked deeper into the Star Dou Great Forest: "Keep up, we need to continue our journey now!"

With the combined effects of Huo Yuhao's two soul skills, Spirit Detection Sharing and Simulation, the four of them walked for almost half an hour without encountering any attacks from soul beasts.

Huo Yuhao frequently activated his simulated soul skills, releasing the aura of a thousand-year-old fire master. He did this with a clear purpose.

The spirit rings they need are all around 1,000 years old. Of course, at least 3,000 years old or more would be suitable.

The Flame Master is already a highly aggressive and powerful being among the thousand-year-old soul beasts. Those that are scared away by it are naturally not suitable to become their targets.

After walking for another fifteen minutes, Wang Dong tugged at Huo Yuhao's sleeve and said in a deep voice:

"We've reached the ten-kilometer mark. Now we can move laterally."

"Okay!" Huo Yuhao nodded in agreement.

The Star Dou Great Forest is vast, but within its outer ten-kilometer radius, most of the inhabitants are indeed soul beasts with cultivation levels of ten or a hundred years. ①

For the next two hours or so, apart from a few well-behaved thousand-year-old soul beasts, they encountered virtually no threatening creatures.

"Another soul beast has arrived, and it's a big one," Huo Yuhao shared what he saw with Wang Dong and the other two through mental sharing.

A large, jet-black bear slowly appeared in the mental detection system, and it lazily walked towards Huo Yuhao and his companions.

From its surging blood and soul power fluctuations, Huo Yuhao immediately judged that no matter what kind of bear-like soul beast it was, it was already a thousand-year-old soul beast, and not just any ordinary thousand-year-old one, but one with at least three thousand years of cultivation.

This giant bear is over three meters long and extremely majestic, with its black fur subtly reflecting a metallic sheen.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao's gaze fell on Xiao Xiao.

"How is it?"

Xiao Xiao was slightly taken aback and asked, "What? How?"

Huo Yuhao asked, "Would this bear-type spirit beast be suitable as your spirit ring?"

Xiao Xiao asked in surprise, "How did you suddenly think of this? Its cultivation level seems to be about right for me to absorb. But we only sensed it through spiritual detection, we didn't actually see it, and we can't even determine what kind of soul beast it is. How can we judge?"

Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "Did you see its metallic fur? Metallic, bear—even just those two things alone give me a more than 60% chance that it's skilled in defense. Moreover, judging from its aura and soul power fluctuations, this bear-type soul beast must be quite powerful."

Upon hearing this, Huo Zhanji's eyes widened in surprise. He thought to himself, "As expected of the Spirit Ice Douluo! He can analyze so much without even needing to appraise the soul skill. I must perform well later."

Seeing that the bear was about to leave, Huo Yuhao urged, "Make a decision quickly, or it will be too late."

Xiao Xiao said, "Of course! We'd rather miss out than let it go! We can't come up empty-handed today, can we?! But can we handle it?"

Soon, Huo Yuhao answered Xiao Xiao's question with his actions.

With a resounding metallic clang, a massive, dark cannon barrel, 1.3 meters long, was attached to Huo Yuhao's right shoulder.

Aside from being a bit small, this cannon is exactly the same as the energy-gathering soul-guided cannon that He Caitou used in the Soul Master Competition.

Xiao Xiao was slightly taken aback, gave Huo Yuhao a strange look, and couldn't help but ask, "Is this the one from back then..."

"Yes," Huo Yuhao nodded from the side, while Wang Dong held the cannon barrel with one hand and helped Huo Yuhao charge the cannon with the other.

Yes, this is the Super Energy Concentration Soul Cannon after being modified by Fan Yu. Even a three-ring Soul Master can charge it.

With the fusion of Wang Dong's power with Huo Yuhao's, Wang Dong's strength has been amplified to the level of a four-ring Soul Master, making him perfect for the cannon.

After being charged, the super-energy cannon turned completely incandescent, and an indescribable sense of terror permeated the area around Huo Yuhao's body.

Such a powerful fluctuation of soul energy quickly alerted the giant bear. A layer of dark golden light surged from its fur, not outwards, but rather contained within its fur. One could see that each strand of dark golden fur instantly stood on end, like steel needles.

Roar!

The giant bear stood upright and let out a savage roar!

boom!

A magnificent white light appeared; it wasn't a pillar of light, but a white sphere of light. The moment it was launched, a cross was marked on the giant bear's body.

When the white orb of light flew out of the super-energy cannon, even the air seemed to distort strangely.

The white sphere of light was only a foot in size, but when it exploded, it was like a tiny sun rising in the forest!

"Boom!"

Amidst the deafening roar, the four felt a powerful gust of air surge in front of them, lifting them off the ground like eggs being fried in a pan, before slamming them back down.

(①The fight with Huo Zhan wasted nearly half an hour, and the Thousand-Year Tiger Demon Cat went home to find its mother for dinner, so they didn't encounter it!)
