Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Spinning Top, Explosive Warrior

The group dispersed and each found a place to lie down.

Zhao Wuji lay on his back on the ground, looking at the night sky above him, his thoughts churning.

Wang Teng's words were like a thorn stuck in his heart.

If I hadn't been young and impetuous back then, wanting to mess with everyone I met, I wouldn't be in this predicament today.

However, so many years have passed, it's too late for regrets.

Zhao Wuji sighed again, turned over, and closed his eyes.

The night wind blew across the campfire, sending sparks flying that quickly disappeared into the deep darkness.

Midnight, deep within the Starry Sky Forest.

A bonfire was burning brightly, the flames flickering and illuminating a small area around it.

Wang Teng opened his eyes, quietly climbed out of his sleeping bag, walked over to Tang San who was on night watch, and patted him on the shoulder.

"Mistress, it's time to switch shifts."

Tang San nodded, yawned, rubbed his eyes, and walked towards the tent.

Wang Teng sat down by the campfire. To his left was Zhao Wuji, who was resting with his eyes half-closed, and to his right was Zhu Zhuqing, who was keeping watch with him for the rest of the night.

Zhu Zhuqing hugged her knees, staring into the darkness, without saying a word.

The night was quiet.

It was so quiet that the only sounds were the occasional crackling of burning firewood and the low growling of some unknown spirit beast in the distance.

Wang Teng added a piece of firewood to the fire, and a spark rose up and quickly disappeared into the night.

I sat there for who knows how long.

Suddenly, Zhao Wuji, who had been lying down sleeping, abruptly opened his eyes, sat up abruptly, and stared intently into the depths of the forest.

Wang Teng and Zhu Zhuqing also stood up, but before they could ask anything, Zhao Wuji shouted, "Everyone on alert!"

The sound exploded in the night sky, and chaos immediately erupted inside the tent.

"Roar--"

Almost simultaneously, a deafening roar came from afar.

Immediately following was a rumbling, shaking sound that grew louder and louder as it approached, as if a vast army was charging towards them.

"what happened?"

Tang San emerged from the tent, his face grave.

"It's a soul beast."

Wang Teng listened intently and analyzed, "And there are quite a few of them."

“Not a small number,” Zhao Wuji said in a voice as deep as a stone, “it’s a beast tide.”

As soon as he finished speaking, countless eerie green lights suddenly appeared in the darkness. Those were the eyes of the soul beasts, densely packed and stretching as far as the eye could see.

"Retreat! Retreat quickly!"

Zhao Wuji made a decisive decision.

But it was too late.

"Roar--"

Another earth-shattering roar erupted, and a colossal creature leaped out from the depths of the forest, soaring over the charging soul beasts and landing heavily in front of the group.

Under the moonlight, the enormous figure was over ten meters tall, covered in jet-black fur, and its eyes were like two blood-red lanterns.

"A 100,000-year-old soul beast, the Titan Giant Ape!"

Upon seeing the soul beast before him, Zhao Wuji's voice changed.

At this moment, the earth trembled, and with each step the giant ape took, a deep pit sank into the ground.

It charged straight toward the crowd at an astonishing speed.

"Run separately! Run as many as you can!"

Zhao Wuji roared.

"Oscar!"

Oscar had been awake for a while, and his face was pale, but his hands were moving very quickly.

Yellow, yellow, purple.

Three spirit rings lit up in succession, illuminating Oscar's tense face.

"First Soul Skill: I Have a Giant Sausage!"

"Second Soul Skill: I Have a Little Sausage!"

"Third Soul Skill: I Have a Clone Intestine!"

One sausage after another flew out of Oscar's hand and were distributed to each person, three sausages per person.

Before anyone could think twice, they swallowed it in a few bites.

As soon as the sausage entered their stomachs, the amplifying sensation immediately spread throughout everyone's bodies.

At the same time, two identical clones appeared next to each of Wang Teng and his companions.

Nine people, twenty-seven figures.

"run!"

At Zhao Wuji's command, everyone immediately scattered in all directions.

The Titan Ape was stunned for a moment, then roared and leaped into the air.

Its enormous body soared into the air, obscuring half the sky, and slammed its feet down onto the ground.

"Scatter! Watch out!"

"Xiao Wu, no!"

"Rongrong, Zhuqing, run to either side!"

boom--

The deafening roar made people's ears ring, and a huge crater was smashed into the ground. The shockwave spread outwards like a hurricane.

Wang Teng was thrown over by the blast wave and rolled several times on the ground before crashing into a tree and coming to a stop.

He looked up and saw that all the clones had been shattered. Oscar and Ning Rongrong were even sent flying far away, spitting blood in mid-air.

After landing, the two weaker individuals remained motionless, clearly having passed out.

Seventh Soul Skill: Mighty Vajra Bear!

Zhao Wuji's eyes turned completely red. His seventh spirit ring lit up, and he transformed into a five-meter-tall golden giant bear, pouncing towards the Titan Giant Ape.

Fifth Soul Skill: Gravity Compression!

Zhao Wuji slapped the Titan Ape's legs with both palms, causing the giant ape to pause slightly before impatiently swinging its arms.

In that instant, Zhao Wuji flew out like a cannonball.

"Bang bang bang!"

Zhao Wuji's body crashed through more than a dozen large trees before finally coming to a stop.

On the other side, the Titan Ape ignored everyone else and casually scooped up Xiao Wu, who was flying through the air.

Then it turned and left.

"Little dance!"

Tang San screamed in anguish, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

The Titan Ape's enormous figure quickly disappeared into the darkness.

At the same time, the soul beasts that had been startled by the Titan Ape also dispersed.

Silence returned to the forest, with only scattered footprints and fallen trees remaining as evidence of what had just happened.

"call--"

Watching the Titan Ape leave, Wang Teng breathed a sigh of relief and quickly walked to Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing's side.

Wang Teng knew about the relationship between the Titan Ape and Xiao Wu, so he wasn't too worried about Xiao Wu's safety.

However, when Wang Teng saw Ning Rongrong lying on the ground with a pale face, his heart still clenched.

He immediately took out a small cloth bag from his storage soul tool. These were candies he had specifically asked Teacher Shao Xin for before setting off, meant for healing wounds and stopping bleeding.

Wang Teng poured out a few pills and gently fed them into Ning Rongrong's mouth, then handed a few to Zhu Zhuqing.

"How about it?"

Wang Teng asked in a low voice.

Ning Rongrong took a while to recover before opening her eyes, forcing a smile, and saying, "I broke a few ribs... but I'm much better now."

Zhu Zhuqing took the candy, swallowed it silently, and nodded to Wang Teng.

At this moment, Zhao Wuji also came over, clutching his chest and limping.

His complexion was terrible, and there was blood at the corner of his mouth, indicating that he was seriously injured.

"Wang Teng, where is Tang San?"

Wang Teng was stunned. He turned his head and saw that Tang San was gone.

"He went after Xiao Wu!"

On the other side, Dai Mubai gave a reminder.

Wang Teng's heart tightened; he hadn't expected that Tang San would disappear in the blink of an eye.
