The Tree Realm Descends on Douluo Continent

Chapter 268 Xiao Wu's Comb

"The Star Luo forces are so weak?" Xiong Jun suddenly felt bored, his massive body collapsing to the ground, propping his cheek up with his paw: "Someone of you go and take care of this."

The other spirit beasts also lost some interest upon hearing this, but since someone had to do it, they all turned their attention to the weakest Azure Bull Python.

"."

Facing the gaze, the Azure Bull Python remained silent for a moment before slowly straightening its upper body from the ground.

Since the day Erming was killed by humans, the landscape of the Tiandou Great Forest has changed. It turns out that the bottom of the lake, which it had always suspected, really was a hidden paradise.

It's hard to say whether this change is good or bad for it.

The advantage is that a large number of powerful beings have suddenly appeared in the soul beast camp. They are no longer fighting alone and can avoid being hunted down one by one by humans.

The downside is that it went from being the emperor of the Star Dou Great Forest to a subordinate, a misstep that caused its status to plummet.

As for the purpose of these soul beasts appearing, it now has a better understanding of it.

He never expected that there was a being 980,000 years old hidden among the soul beasts, and that these soul beasts were constantly devouring each other's enormous energy.

This contradicts its consistent mindset of banding together to resist humanity.

However, being under the eaves, the beast had no say among the group of soul beasts with its cultivation level, not to mention that there was an even more terrifying existence hidden at the bottom of the lake.

The Azure Bull Python silently got up and sped along following the Demon King's guidance. Having done so much cleaning up the small fry, it seemed to have gotten used to it.

At this moment, Elder Tang Ming was leading Tang San in a search for suitable spirit beasts: "Little San, what's the maximum number of years of cultivation your sixth spirit ring can withstand?"

"Reporting to the Grand Elder, I estimate that the sixth spirit ring should be able to withstand the cultivation of a 50,000-year-old spirit beast," Tang San said with a touch of humility.

Through the continuous absorption of the Eight Spider Lances, his physique became stronger and stronger, a feat that can be described as a leap forward.

Tang San was actually feeling a bit regretful. He had attached a spirit ring to the Clear Sky Hammer too early. Even if he hadn't waited until he was granted a title, his strength might have been even greater if he had attached the spirit ring now.

However, there's no use regretting the past. Now that he has come to his senses and no longer has an opponent like Li Xun to interfere, he will be able to move forward more steadily.

The main reason is that the Blue Silver Grass has mutated and possesses the divine skill of devouring. He felt that by cultivating the Blue Silver Grass first, his cultivation speed would be much faster than before.

"Fifty thousand years of cultivation?" The Grand Elder was shocked, followed by boundless joy.

"Yes." Tang San smiled and nodded slightly. "However, I don't plan to add any more spirit rings to the Clear Sky Hammer. Instead, I plan to cultivate the Blue Silver Grass first."

The First Elder pondered for a moment and nodded: "Little Third, you are right. Cultivating a weaker martial soul first can indeed give the other martial soul a greater advantage in the later stages."

"I don't know much about soul beasts. Tell me what kind of soul beast you want and how old it is."

"Then thank you very much, Elder. My Blue Silver Grass currently has four spirit rings. I need two plant-type spirit beasts with the ability to devour or suck blood before considering the choice of a sixth spirit ring."

When Tang San heard what the Grand Elder said to him, he couldn't help but think of Yu Xiaogang.

If I were still following that person, I might be having trouble choosing spirit rings now. Even if I didn't just absorb whatever I hunted, the choice of spirit rings wouldn't be very good, and the age of the rings would be ridiculously low.

Unlike having a powerful elder leading the team, where you can choose any soul beast you want.

哞—

Just as the two were searching for soul beasts, a roar that soared into the sky came, followed by a huge figure that appeared at the edge of their sight, moving at an incredible speed and charging straight toward them.

"Not good!!" Elder Tang Ming's expression changed drastically upon seeing the enormous figure. He quickly flashed to Tang San's side: "Quick, let's go! It's the Emperor Beast of the Star Dou Great Forest, the Azure Bull Python."

Everyone in their top-tier forces knew about the two emperor-level soul beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest, and he recognized them at a glance.

Azure Bull Python?

Tang San stared at the enormous figure for a moment, then a feeling of joy welled up inside him.

His purpose in coming to the Star Dou Great Forest was twofold: to obtain a spirit ring and to find Xiao Wu.

Since the end of the Soul Master Competition, the two of them have never met again. Tang San still remembers Xiao Wu telling him that if she disappeared one day, it must be because she returned to the Star Dou Great Forest.

Xiao Wu's two brothers, Daming and Erming, live here. She is much safer here than in human cities.

Thinking of Xiao Wu, Tang San felt a surge of excitement: "Elder, don't worry, this soul beast is not our enemy."

After speaking, Tang San took out a wooden comb from his soul tool. The comb was of fine texture, and the deep purple patterns indicated its age. A faint woody fragrance emanated from it, which made people feel much more relaxed.

This wooden comb was given to him by Xiao Wu herself. It was carved by Xiao Wu's mother and is also a memento of Xiao Wu's mother.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" The First Elder was extremely anxious and grabbed Tang San's shoulder, about to lift him into the air.

Unexpectedly, Tang San's hand covered it: "Elder, please believe me."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

The elder's gaze was fixed intently, but he found Tang San's gaze to be extremely firm, as if he had a plan in mind, and filled with doubt: "Little San, have you thought this through? If there is the slightest mistake, we will both be in danger."

"Don't worry." Tang San gave him a reassuring look, then turned his gaze to the Azure Bull Python, which was now even faster.

He gently stroked the wooden comb, surprised that Xiao Wu's brother actually recognized the scent.

Boom—

The enormous creature rampaged through the forest, crushing towering trees and scattering birds and beasts. Even the high-level spirit beasts were terrified, for they could clearly sense the fury emanating from the behemoth's body.

哞—

Another roar erupted, but this time, the roar carried a more chilling undertone compared to the previous one.

Staring at the azure bull python that showed no sign of slowing down, the First Elder's palms were sweating profusely: "Third Brother, are you sure it's not an enemy?"

Tang San felt a little insecure seeing the Azure Bull Python's aggressive approach, but because of his trust in Xiao Wu, he didn't panic too much.

At this moment, the Azure Bull Python seemed to be filled with endless rage.

It came to clean up human fish as usual, but unexpectedly sensed the presence of Xiao Wu and Xiao Wu's mother.

The thought that Erming had been lured out in this way and then killed by humans filled it with rage. Moreover, before coming, the Demon King had already calculated the number of people and their cultivation levels, so it wasn't worried about an ambush.

"Slow-moving domain".

With the target within reach, the Azure Bull Python's eyes flashed with cold light, its domain unfolded, and its tail lashed out with boundless killing intent.

Faced with this overwhelming attack, Tang Ming's expression changed drastically, while Tang San was somewhat taken aback.

"What happened?"
