In Douluo Continent, his martial soul mutated into Blue Silver Grass.

Chapter 231: Horrifying Battle Scenes, Dried Blood, Broken Branches

Although the mainland currently presents a thriving scene, who can guarantee when this beautiful picture will be destroyed?

The reason why the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire were able to maintain this seemingly peaceful situation was that the Spirit Hall, led by Qian Daoliu, prevented the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire from fighting each other to the death.

However, the ultimate goal of Qian Daoliu and even Qian Xunji, who took over the Spirit Hall from Qian Daoliu, was to make the Spirit Hall more powerful and to ensure that its influence and reputation would be carried forward on the Douluo Continent for a long time.

Their main goal was to better promote the glory of angels and ensure that the Spirit Hall remained firmly in the top position on the continent. However, during Qian Xunji's tenure, some of their policies towards the two great empires became somewhat extreme.

However, after Qian Xunji was devoured and died by Bibi Dong, Bibi Dong took over.

This woman is no simpleton. She has neither an Angelic Martial Soul nor does she believe in the Angel God. In fact, because of Qian Xunji's situation, she harbors a deep hatred for Angelic Martial Souls.

Secondly, Bibi Dong is ambitious, although it is unknown whether her ambition was innate or a result of Yu Xiaogang.

In short, the Spirit Hall under Bibi Dong's leadership shared the general policy of strengthening its influence on the continent, but her true purpose ran counter to that of the Angel Clan.

Qian Daoliu, however, completely ignored everything.

Later, Qian Renxue, perhaps thinking the same way, also harbored the ambition to unify the continent. Let's speculate that this was a unique kind of love characteristic of female angelic spirit masters!

However, only Lin Hai knows about this matter; no one on the mainland knows Bibi Dong's true purpose.

She wants to build a new world that can accept Yu Xiaogang.

……

"Alright, let's stop talking and go inside quickly," Qian Renxue said.

"We will obey the young master's orders," Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo replied.

"Okay!" Lin Hai replied.

The group of five then bypassed the perspective of the other Soul Masters and entered Thunder Canyon.

"You're always prepared. This time you specifically came to Thunder Canyon, what kind of spirit beast's spirit ring are you planning to obtain?"

Lin Hai pursed his lips, then said, "Thunderous Hell Vine!"

"Thunderous Hell Vine?" Qian Renxue looked puzzled; she had never heard of this name before.

Dugu Bo and Gui Mei also had puzzled expressions; they had never heard of the Thunderous Hell Vine before.

That's understandable, though. Plant-type spirit beasts like the Thunderous Hell Vine are extremely rare. The Spirit Hall's library might have some, but neither Qian Renxue nor Gui Mei seem like the type to read a lot of books.

Yue Guan, however, gave Lin Hai a rather surprised look.

"You actually know about the Thunderous Hell Vine, a soul beast?"

"What, Elder Ju, do you know about this soul beast called Thunderous Hell Vine?"

"I've seen some information about this kind of spirit beast in the Spirit Hall's library, but I've never actually seen it myself."

"The Thunderous Hell Vine is a very magical soul beast."

"This kind of spirit beast is among the top plant-type spirit beasts from birth. It is born with intelligence and is even more powerful than this kid's Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul."

"When it first grows, it resembles a bamboo shoot, only a small section. It must grow in a place where lightning strikes frequently. It can only develop during thunderstorms. Each time it is struck by lightning, it becomes stronger. A hundred lightning strikes are equivalent to a year of cultivation for an ordinary soul beast."

"You should all know how terrifying lightning is. The old dragon of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan was able to establish itself among the three upper sects with only one Title Douluo because of its terrifying lightning combat power."

Dugu Bo was well aware of this, because he had once gone to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect to confront that old dragon, and the result was also terrible.

Dugu Bo said indignantly, "That old dragon is indeed despicable."

"Oh, it seems you old poisoner have suffered at his hands! Hahahaha!" Yue Guan laughed wildly.

"Stop talking nonsense and get to your point," Dugu Bo said irritably.

"Cough cough cough!" Yue Guan cleared his throat.

"Thunder is the most violent of all natural forces. It is under the test of thunder that the Thunder Hell Vine continues to grow."

"According to ancient records from the ancient times, other soul beasts can cultivate for one year, while the Thunder Hell Vine may need ten years to gather enough thunder to form a hundred times, which is more than ten times slower than the cultivation of ordinary soul beasts."

These ancient books are the secret texts of ancient sects and families obtained by the Spirit Hall. At the beginning of the Spirit Hall, all kinds of families and sects began to rise.

However, with the passage of time, these families and sects could not hold on. Some were wiped out, while others were destroyed. Only because the Spirit Hall has remained prosperous has it had the opportunity to collect the secret texts of these families and sects into the Spirit Hall's library.

Yu Xiaogang knew about the Sea God because he saw it in the Spirit Hall's library.

Ordinary forces might not even know about the legend of the sea god from countless years ago.

After all, the Spirit Hall is the representative force of the gods in the lower realm! The Spirit Hall obviously knows more.

Yue Guan continued, "Don't be fooled by the hardships the Thunderous Hell Vine endures in its survival and cultivation. As time goes by, once the Thunderous Hell Vine can cultivate to the hundred-year level, the situation will change dramatically."

"When the Thunderous Hell Vine reaches a hundred years of cultivation, it can actively attract lightning during thunderstorms and let the lightning strike it. Often, it can receive a hundred lightning strikes in one night. Although by then, it will take more than a hundred lightning strikes a year to improve its cultivation, its cultivation speed will greatly increase."

"Due to the inherent characteristics of the Thunderous Hell Vine, once it is cultivated to a certain level, its destructive power becomes extremely terrifying, often creating a spectacular scene of thunder pools appearing in an area."

"And this Thunder Pool will continue to expand as the Thunderous Hell Vine itself grows stronger, until it devours everything around it."

"It seems you have a wealth of knowledge, Uncle!" Lin Hai couldn't help but say to Yue Guan.

"Don't interrupt me, brat." Although Yue Guan's tone was a bit stern, there was a subtle smile playing on his lips. After all, this was his own grand-nephew, and how could he not be happy that he had been praised?

"Elder Ju, please continue!" Qian Renxue also frowned and glanced at Lin Hai.

"A Thunderous Hell Vine with ten thousand years of cultivation is enough to change the celestial phenomena, causing thunder to descend upon the mortal world and control the power of thunder to destroy everything in the outside world."

"Therefore, once a Thunderous Hell Vine of this level of cultivation appears, it will inevitably cause disaster in a certain region. Only a super strong person has the possibility of destroying it."

"But this Thunder Canyon seems to be a major danger zone."

……

After a pause, Yue Guan continued, "But the Thunderous Hell Vine also has a drawback. Because it relies on constantly absorbing lightning to improve itself, once it reaches a certain level, the destructive power of the compressed lightning becomes too strong, making it vulnerable to self-destruction at any time."

According to records, the vast majority of Thunderous Hell Vine appear in deep mountains and forests, developing in uninhabited places, but ultimately perish during its own growth process.

"Depending on the different growth experiences of each Thunderous Hell Vine, they generally self-destruct around 20,000 to 50,000 years, and there are very few Thunderous Hell Vine that can cultivate for more than 50,000 years."

……

"It is also because of their harsh living environment that their numbers are so small. Thunderous Hell Vine that can grow to ten thousand years old is extremely rare."

"I see!"

"This Thunderous Hell Vine is actually such a terrifying soul beast." Qian Renxue nodded gently.

"However, I'm curious, how did you know about the Thunderous Hell Vine, a soul beast? You brat," Yue Guan retorted.

"Even I found it in the Spirit Hall's library."

Lin Hai: "..."

"Although you already know some things, I might as well tell you. The forest I visited before was where the previous Blue Silver Emperor lived."

"You should know that the previous Blue Silver Emperor was Tang Hao's wife, who was hunted down by Qian Xunji, the previous Pope of the Spirit Hall."

"And in that forest, besides the Blue Silver Emperor, there is also a Blue Silver King with an age of 80,000 years."

"However, you must not try to take it."

"And it was from this Blue Silver King that I learned about the Thunderous Hell Vine."

"No, no." Yue Guan keenly realized that there was something wrong with Lin Hai's words.

"You should have known about the Thunderous Hell Vine, a soul beast, before this." Yue Guan's gaze was fixed on Lin Hai.

Lin Hai: "..." Is it really necessary for us to do this?!

"Yes, I did learn about the Thunderous Hell Vine, a soul beast, from a tattered ancient book. I happen to have the opportunity and status to ask the Blue Silver King about it."

"The Blue Silver King has lived a long time, so I think it should be able to understand some things."

"So, your sixth spirit ring is this spirit beast called Thunderous Hell Vine?"

"Um!"

Lin Hai still wasn't sure if the Thunderous Hell Vine was truly a 10-year-old soul beast.

However, with three Title Douluos—Dugu Bo, Yue Guan, and Gui Mei—capturing a 10-year-old soul beast shouldn't be too difficult.

"Alright, since you already have a plan in mind, we don't need to ask any more questions. Tell me, how do we find that Thunderous Hell Vine?" Ghost asked Lin Hai.

"Because of its own characteristics, the Thunderous Hell Vine is a soul beast that lives in places where the thunder element is very strong."

"We'll choose a place with a high concentration of lightning element."

"Secondly, since the cultivation process of a spirit beast like the Thunderous Hell Vine is accompanied by the bombardment of lightning, areas with dense clouds and rampant lightning are also places we can rule out."

"Alright, you don't need to say anything anymore," Qian Renxue interrupted Lin Hai.

"Since you all say that the Thunderous Hell Vine is so powerful, then let's go directly to the central area of ​​Thunder Canyon to find it." Qian Renxue pointed directly to the key point: the central area of ​​Thunder Canyon, which is also the place where lightning is most concentrated and where the lightning element is most abundant.

If the Thunderous Hell Vine relies on lightning for survival and cultivation, then the central area of ​​Thunder Canyon is undoubtedly a very suitable place.

"Yes, young master!" Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo naturally listened to Qian Renxue. They had just pledged allegiance to her and couldn't go against their boss!

Dugu Bo didn't care where he went. He had been with Lin Hai for a long time, and Lin Hai had spent a lot of time interacting with Qian Renxue, so Dugu Bo didn't feel annoyed with Qian Renxue like he did with the other people in the Spirit Hall.

Lin Hai said, "Okay!"

Subsequently, under the escort of Dugu Bo, Yue Guan, and Gui Mei, three titled Douluo, Lin Hai and Qian Renxue moved rapidly towards the central area of ​​Thunder Canyon.

……

"As expected of the central region of Thunder Canyon, the lightning is incredibly violent."

"This place has basically been occupied by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan. Other soul masters who want to obtain soul rings in Thunder Canyon need a warrant from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan."

"They may be domineering, but that's the law of this continent: the strong are respected."

"As long as we have the power to overthrow this continent, we can set our own rules."

……

"Although there aren't many soul beasts in the central area of ​​Thunder Canyon, each one is quite old." Yue Guan and his group saw quite a few powerful lightning-attribute soul beasts in Thunder Canyon.

For example, the Berserker Thunder Lizard, the Lightning Eagle...

"This is the area where the lightning is most concentrated, young master, you brat, you two stay close!" Yue Guan reminded Lin Hai and Qian Renxue.

"Let's go!" Qian Renxue said calmly.

Strangely enough, although they were supposed to be hunting soul beasts and obtaining soul rings for Lin Hai, the person in charge was changed to Qian Renxue.

Just like not long ago in the Star Dou Great Forest, although it was Qian Renxue who obtained the seventh soul ring, Lin Hai was in charge of the whole process.

It seems Qian Renxue is still a bit unhappy about being manipulated by Lin Hai! So she wants to retaliate and manipulate Lin Hai in return.

Lin Hai knew that Qian Renxue was a proud and arrogant person, so he did not resist Qian Renxue's arrangements.

……

Protected by Yue Guan, Gui Mei, and Dugu Bo, Lin Hai and Qian Renxue broke through the dense net of lightning.

"Terrifying! Such a battle is still raging amidst such dense lightning!"

Lightning streaks danced in the sky, and thunder roared, but this terrifying scene was far less shocking than what Lin Haiqianrenxue and her companions were witnessing.

As far as Lin Haiqianrenxue could see, there was only scorched earth, a completely different concept from the area outside the lightning net.

Moreover, in this area where lightning was most concentrated, there were stone walls on three sides, with large chunks missing from the stone walls at intervals, and the lightning strike marks on the stone walls were scorching.

There were dried bloodstains and broken plant vines on the ground, the vines were purplish-red.

This shows how intense the battle was back then. Those who could come to such a place must have been over 70,000 years old if they were spirit beasts, and must have reached the level of a Soul Douluo if they were human spirit masters.
