Douluo Continent: Taking Tang San as a disciple, with a ten-thousand-fold return for teaching him.

For Chen Luo, the dragon spider still posed no threat, but for Yu Xiuyuan and Ma Hongjun, the dragon spider was a deadly threat.

Perhaps sensing Chen Luo and the others' arrival, the dragon spider began to move, rushing towards them at great speed.

As they rushed towards it, everyone quickly got a clear look at the dragon spider. As they got closer, they also felt the oppressive presence of the dragon spider's enormous size.

"I'll do it."

Yu Zongtian stepped forward again, wielding a long sword and heading straight for the Dragon Spider.

Chen Luo didn't just stand by and watch; he also chose to take action. Why fight one-on-one when you can gang up on someone?

Flander and Liu Erlong did not take any action. They were responsible for protecting Yu Xiuyuan and Ma Hongjun, and they also had faith in Chen Luo and Yu Zongtian's abilities.

As Yu Zongtian advanced, his sixth soul ring lit up, and eight silver longswords quietly appeared around him. Together with the longsword in his hand, there were a total of nine longswords. Under Yu Zongtian's control, they all flew towards the Dragon Spider, forming a sword formation in mid-air.

The moment the sword formation was formed, nine enormous silver sword phantoms appeared strangely around the dragon spider, then suddenly fell, piercing through its body and restricting its movements.

The sword formation was relatively weak and did not cause much damage to the dragon spider, but its control effect was excellent, and the dragon spider was currently unable to move at all.

Chen Luo then arrived in front of the dragon spider, his right hand covered with golden scales, which had transformed into the hand of a divine dragon.

Without any fancy maneuvers, a simple and unadorned punch landed with a resounding thud.

"boom!!!"

With a deafening, muffled sound, the dragon spider's body suddenly exploded. This seemingly incredibly dangerous creature couldn't withstand even one blow from Chen Luo's fist.

A look of surprise flashed across Yu Zongtian's face. He was no longer marveling at the speed of Chen Luo's growth, but simply at Chen Luo's strength.

"He doesn't even need soul skills; he can kill this special monster with just one punch. Just how strong is he?"

Chen Luo was unaware of the shock Yu Zongtian was experiencing; his gaze remained calmly fixed ahead.

Under the destructive power of Chen Luo's Divine Dragon Hand, the dragon spider's enormous body had been reduced to dust.

Soon, an energy that was extremely familiar to Chen Luo slowly emerged. It was different from the special energy they had obtained from killing the monsters earlier; it was the dragon soul he had absorbed in the past!

That's right, it is the Dragon Soul, but this Dragon Soul is extremely rare, there is only a wisp of it.

Of course, that special energy also exists, and it seems to be a guaranteed loot dropped by the monsters here.

Without Chen Luo's deliberate guidance, the wisp of dragon soul automatically entered his body.

Dragon soul is also mixed in with the special energy, but the proportion is so small that it can be almost ignored.

Chen Luo did not keep all the spoils for himself, but left the special energy to his teammates.

Yu Zongtian and the others also sensed the presence of that special energy, but they couldn't sense the existence of the dragon soul like Chen Luo could, or perhaps the dragon soul was too faint, which is why they couldn't sense it.

After sensing the special energy, Yu Zongtian did not take any action, nor did Flander and Liu Erlong behind him.

Flander urged Yu Xiuyuan and Ma Hongjun, "You two hurry up and absorb the energy. Hongjun, be careful not to lose your way. Even if you absorb less energy, don't rush it."

"Yes, Dean!"

"Okay, teacher!"

Without any pretense or politeness, Yu Xiuyuan and Ma Hongjun immediately took action.

The dragon spider contributed far more energy than the previous spider monsters, and it took Yu Xiuyuan and Ma Hongjun about half an hour to absorb all the energy.

Ma Hongjun had a strong enough willpower. Although he showed signs of pain during the process of absorbing energy, he eventually stabilized.

As for Yu Xiuyuan, he possesses the ability to devour, and was not affected by the negative effects of "being lost." His condition remained stable, and he absorbed much more energy than Ma Hongjun.

Both of them have seen a significant improvement in their strength, but because they absorbed too much energy this time, it will probably take some time to "digest and absorb" it.

In addition to improving his strength, Yu Xiuyuan also gained something extra.

After absorbing the special energy, he went to Chen Luo's side immediately.

"Teacher, I feel like my White Snake has become stronger too."

Chen Luo was slightly surprised to hear this, and everyone else looked at Yu Xiuyuan. In the end, everyone's eyes fell on Yu Xiuyuan's white snake.

Others could not see the changes in the white snake, but Chen Luo, the strongest among them, could clearly sense them.

Indeed, as Yu Xiuyuan said, he received a promotion.

Could it be that Yu Xiuyuan also has a cheat code, using the absorption of dragon souls to enhance the strength of his martial soul?

In Chen Luo's view, the only thing that could enhance Yu Xiuyuan's white snake was the pitifully small amount of dragon soul within that special energy.

That existence, which was dispensable to him, might be of great help to Yu Xiuyuan.

Chen Luo looked at Ma Hongjun and asked, "Hongjun, has your martial spirit changed?"

Ma Hongjun shook his head: "No, Master."

Chapter 303 Guardian of Fire

"It should be the effect of the Dragon Soul. Your disciple's martial soul is also quite special, so perhaps it can be improved through the Dragon Soul."

Yu Zongtian suddenly spoke, immediately drawing everyone's attention.

Chen Luo knew all of this, but he didn't expect that Yu Zongtian seemed to know it as well.

However, considering that Yu Zongtian even knew about the Dragon Soul, it's not surprising that he would know about these other situations as well.

All eyes fell on Yu Zongtian, who then continued, "Dragon Souls are bound to exist here. A few people's Martial Souls can be enhanced through Dragon Souls. I learned this from the memories of the lost souls of the past."

Another lost soul.

Chen Luo was very curious about how many lost souls Yu Zongtian had encountered.

What is certain is that all of those who lost their way were powerful members of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family.

This place was originally the exclusive "dungeon" of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family. Perhaps the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Martial Soul was stronger in the past with the help of the Dragon Soul, but now the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Martial Soul has become weaker due to the lack of the Dragon Soul's enhancement.

Furthermore, there is a strong possibility that Yu Zongtian is also an ancestor of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family.

Yu Zongtian and Yu Zongtian might be the same person.

Although Yu Zongtian's martial spirit is a longsword, Chen Luo could clearly see the shadow of a "dragon" within it.

"That's great, Yuan-di! Your martial spirit can keep getting stronger. If there's still energy to absorb later, let you absorb mine too!"

Upon hearing that Yu Xiuyuan's martial soul could be improved, before Yu Xiuyuan himself could even feel happy, Ma Hongjun was already beaming with joy, as if it were him who could be improved. He was even willing to give up his own opportunity to improve his strength and let Yu Xiuyuan have it.

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiuyuan was deeply moved, as he had always felt the care that Fatty Brother had shown him.

"Thank you so much, Fatty! I appreciate your kindness, but you can't miss this opportunity to improve your strength!"

"And energy absorption has to be done slowly. I can't absorb that much energy by myself. After absorbing energy, I need at least an hour to adjust my state before I can continue to absorb energy."

"Fatty, you're probably in the same situation, right?"

Ma Hongjun smiled and nodded: "Yes, that's right. We'd better not rush things."

Chen Luo then said, "Being able to keep your mind at peace is the best thing."

As he spoke, Chen Luo looked at Yu Zongtian and said, "Senior, you don't need to worry about us. Just absorb any energy that appears."

Yu Zongtian nodded: "Mm."

Chen Luo then looked at Flander and Liu Erlong: "Flander, Erlong, you two should try absorbing the energy later. This energy is different from the previous energy. Maybe after absorbing it, your martial souls will also be improved."

Flander laughed and said, "My martial soul is unlikely, but Erlong's martial soul is very likely, after all, it is also a dragon."

Liu Erlong said, "Brother Fu, we should at least give it a try."

Flanders nodded: "Yes, I'll try it later."

The group continued on their journey and soon encountered the dragon spider again.

This time, the dragon spiders they encountered were much fiercer than the previous ones, and they immediately unleashed their skills.

The dragon spider emitted a red light, which was eye-catching, but what was even more noteworthy were the faint golden threads on its body, which seemed to be the source of the dragon spider's powerful strength and the source of its true destructive force.

As the dragon spider emitted a red light, the golden threads on its body gradually solidified. Then, all the scales on its body fell off, and each of them, wrapped in red energy, was attached with a golden light spot. Carrying a violent aura, they flew towards Chen Luo and the others.

Upon seeing this, Chen Luo was about to make a move, but Liu Erlong beat him to it.

"Let me do it; I have to do my part too."

Liu Erlong unleashed a 100,000-year-old soul skill right away. Her ninth soul ring lit up, and the 100,000-year-old soul skill Fire Guardian, bestowed by the gods, was activated.

With a violent fluctuation of soul power, flames surged on Liu Erlong's body, and a huge fiery phantom quietly appeared, enveloping everyone inside.

The enormous phantom of flame was indistinct in appearance, but it gave off an aura of immense power.

Soon, the dragon spider's scales arrived, but were blocked by the fiery phantom. For a moment, ear-piercing explosions rang out, and each scale burst forth with tremendous energy. However, the result did not shake the fiery phantom in the slightest; instead, it made it even more solid.

After a series of explosions, Liu Erlong clenched his right fist and then threw a punch at the Dragon Spider out of thin air.

The enormous fiery phantom made the same move, but its fist landed squarely on the dragon spider.

The explosive flames, carrying terrifying power, poured onto the dragon spider's body. Although they didn't manage to blast the dragon spider into pieces like Chen Luo had just done, they still deformed and twisted the dragon spider's body. Under the scorching heat of the flames, the dragon spider's body quickly turned red and black, eventually becoming a pile of charcoal.

This was also the first time Chen Luo and the others had seen Liu Erlong's 100,000-year soul skill. Chen Luo remained relatively calm, while Flander showed a look of shock and envy.

As for the two little guys, Yu Xiuyuan and Ma Hongjun, their expressions were similar to Flanders', only more exaggerated.

Even Yu Zongtian, a titled Douluo, had a hint of envy in his eyes.

Every Soul Master yearns for a 100,000-year Soul Ring, craving its immense power.

After witnessing Liu Erlong's 100,000-year soul skill, everyone's eyes fell on the soul rings surrounding Chen Luo.

Chen Luo possesses many things that countless people yearn for.

The battle started quickly and ended quickly.

After the dragon spider died, it was time to enjoy the spoils of war.

Yu Xiuyuan and Ma Hongjun were no longer able to absorb anything, so they used this time gap to cultivate and stabilize their strength, so that the next absorption time would come sooner.

Yu Zongtian only absorbed a small amount of energy. It wasn't that he was being polite to Chen Luo and the others, but rather that he was worried about losing his way again, so he appeared very conservative.

It was no surprise that most of the energy was absorbed by Liu Erlong and Flander. Liu Erlong's martial soul was also able to be improved with the help of the dragon soul, while Flander's martial soul could not.

Last time, when Chen Luo, Liu Erlong, and Flander explored the Dragon's Secret Realm, the Tomb of Ice and Fire, Flander was the one who gained the least.

Although his martial soul had not been upgraded, he had gained a lot of energy, which made Flander quite satisfied. He was also excited and expectant, because he saw his hope of reaching the Title Douluo level again.

It is possible to reach the title of Douluo through self-cultivation alone, but that is too far away, and it is unknown how much time it would take to take that final step.
