Douluo Continent: Sword Named Star, Slaying Gods to Prove the Dao

However, Ning Xingchen did not intend to absorb the right leg bone and kept it.

"Star, how's it going? Have you reached level 100 yet?" Bone Douluo asked.

Ning Xingchen shook his head and said, "Not yet, but I feel it's coming soon. Maybe I'll reach level 100 when I absorb the next soul ring."

At this moment, Ning Xingchen's soul power had reached the peak of level ninety-nine, and he was probably only one step away from level one hundred.

This is the result of absorbing the soul rings of several soul beasts that are hundreds of thousands of years old to reach this level of soul power.

Even at his cultivation speed, he might not reach his current level of soul power even after a hundred years of cultivation.

The journey from level 99 to level 100 is like an insurmountable abyss.

In the Douluo Continent, how many people can truly surpass this limit through their own efforts? Ning Xingchen knows that the Sea God is one of them, who became a god by using the power of faith in the sea.

The God of Medicine back then did not rely on any sacrifices; he improved his soul power to level 100 by constantly refining and taking medicine, eventually becoming a god.

Ning Xingchen possesses twin martial souls, which allows him to absorb higher-age soul rings once he reaches level 100, requiring at least a soul ring of 100,000 years or more. However, Ning Xingchen's requirements are even higher.

However, judging from the current situation, it is right to have high expectations. He has already absorbed six spirit rings and is now looking for the seventh.

Ning Xingchen didn't have high expectations for this seventh spirit ring, since it only had one skill: Martial Soul True Body.

“Uncle Jian, Uncle Gu, let’s continue choosing soul beasts. There are more than just this one in the Star Dou Great Forest that is over 200,000 years old,” Ning Xingchen said.

"Xue'er, I'll have to trouble you again."

"Brother, this is what Xue'er should do."

“We’ve already searched many places before. This time, I can try a different approach and ask some of the more intelligent soul beasts. As long as we have information about these soul beasts, I believe many of them have seen them and we should be able to find some clues,” said Xue Di.

This is one of the benefits of having Xue Di with you; she can communicate with soul beasts, something that humans cannot do.

Therefore, Ning Xingchen and Xue Di maintained a certain distance, leaving space for Xue Di and other soul cultivators.

Ning Xingchen also told Xue Di about some of the characteristics of the soul beasts he knew, such as Di Tian, ​​the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear, the Crimson King, as well as Bi Ji and Zi Ji.

Among them, Zi Ji has the lowest age, but Zi Ji is not simple either. She is a rare pure-blooded true dragon soul beast, and her true form is the Hell Demon Dragon King.

For the next month, Ning Xingchen wandered around the Star Dou Great Forest.

Xue Di searched for countless soul beasts, but unfortunately, she couldn't find anything related to any ferocious beasts.

Finding ferocious beasts during this period is indeed not easy.

Should we really go and confront the Silver Dragon King ahead of time?

This is only done as a last resort.

After all, Xingchen's plan was to raise his soul power to level 100 when he went to hunt down the Demon Orca King, and he was determined to complete it.

Because he wants to place this spirit ring directly into the tenth spirit ring of the Nine Treasures Profound Yellow Space, he will immediately reach the god level, and he can say that he doesn't need to care about whether he inherits the godhood or not.

Having a spirit ring after reaching level 100, what else could it be but god-level?

Continuing their search in the Star Dou Great Forest, they finally made a breakthrough a month later. Xue Di obtained some information about Zi Ji from a soul beast that was over 80,000 years old.

Following Zi Ji's information, Ning Xingchen and his companions searched for another month, but still found nothing.

Could it be that they are really absorbing the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm together?

So, Ning Xingchen also made that decision!

"Uncle Jian, Uncle Gu, and Xue'er, let's go check out the Lake of Life. Since we can't find it by actively searching, let's make a bigger commotion."

Chapter 132 Saving Brother Tianmeng! One sword to slay Emperor Tian?

Ning Xingchen couldn't find these soul beasts, but he knew that Di Tian and the Silver Dragon King knew each other, and if the Silver Dragon King was in danger, Di Tian would definitely come.

However, this was the only option available. Otherwise, Ning Xingchen would have wasted countless hours here. If all else failed, he would have had no choice but to absorb the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python.

A day later, the Snow Emperor stood above the Lake of Life, its surface calm and undisturbed.

The Titan Ape on the shore of the Lake of Life was the first to discover the Snow Empress. Then, strange movements began to occur in the center of the lake, and the Azure Bull Python stretched out its long python body and bull head from the surface of the lake.

Ning Xingchen and his two companions did not appear; they were only six or seven hundred meters away from the Lake of Life.

After arriving here, Ning Xingchen still asked Xue Di to test the waters by questioning the two soul beasts again to see if they knew the whereabouts of Di Tian and the other ferocious beasts.

After all, these two soul beasts are different from other ordinary soul masters. They have been entrenched in the Lake of Life for a long time and are 100,000-year-old soul beasts that have lived for many years. They should have more information about them.

Therefore, when Xue Di appeared, she also showed her side as a soul beast, and the power of the stars no longer helped her hide her identity as a soul beast.

"Are you a soul beast?" The Azure Bull Python sized up the Snow Empress, who was dozens of meters away. It could tell the Snow Empress's identity at a glance, but this was the first time it had encountered a humanoid soul beast.

The Snow Empress said coldly, "That's right, I am a soul beast from the far north. Do you know where there are soul beasts in the forest that are over 200,000 years old?"

"There's also an ice-attribute soul beast that came to this forest from the far north. It seems to have been captured by those other soul beasts. Do you know anything about it?"

This is what Ning Xingchen asked Xue Di to inquire about. These two would definitely not have told human soul masters in the past, but it's a different story if they were soul masters.

The Azure Bull Python said, "We don't know of any other ice-attribute soul beasts, but I roughly know the location of the ferocious beast you're looking for that's over 200,000 years old."

Although they were far away, Ning Xingchen could still hear everything clearly through his powerful mental strength; the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape indeed knew something.

"Please tell me their location," Xue Di said.

The Azure Bull Python said, "Keep going in this direction, and the first mountain you encounter that's over a thousand meters high might be there."

"Okay, thank you." Xue Di turned and left in the direction indicated by the Azure Bull Python.

Ning Xingchen followed from another direction.

Long after the Snow Empress left, the Titan Ape finally spoke, "Da Ming, why did you tell her about that place? Wasn't it forbidden?"

The Azure Bull Python said, "She is very old, probably on par with those soul beasts. I estimate that she is over 500,000 years old."

“However, even if she goes there, she may not be able to enter that space,” said the Azure Bull Python.

“That’s right, it’s very difficult to get in,” said the Titan Ape.

Ning Xingchen did not hear the conversation between the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, as he had already met up with the Snow Emperor more than ten kilometers away.

So the four of them traveled together for about 300 kilometers before finally arriving at the high mountain that the Azure Bull Python had mentioned.

“Star, we’ve been to this place before and didn’t find anything.” Bone Douluo looked around. They had been here more than a month ago but hadn’t found anything. It was Snow Empress who had inspected this place.

Not only Xue Di, but Ning Xingchen also checked carefully, but found nothing.

"Could it be that those two soul beasts were lying?" Sword Douluo pondered.

Xue Di thought for a moment and said, "I think what that soul beast said is probably true. Perhaps we missed some places when we were searching."

However, Ning Xingchen had a special idea.

“Let’s split up and search. We can search every corner of this mountain range. If it’s not outside, it might be inside the mountain,” Ning Xingchen said.

If it really is here, and they can't find it, Ning Xingchen thinks there are two possibilities.

The first possibility is that there is an area hidden by an array, which they overlooked during their search. However, this possibility is relatively small, since Ning Xingchen had also searched for it before, and he could easily spot ordinary hiding places.

The most likely explanation is the second one: there might be a space within this mountain range, similar to the space in Killing City.

Hidden in this space, even Ning Xingchen, relying on his Starry Eye, would have difficulty finding them, so the four of them began to split up to search.

Each person was responsible for a direction. Ning Xingchen entered the mountain range and walked up step by step, observing any suspicious places.

The very next day, Sword Douluo finally found a clue in the direction he was looking for, and the four of them reunited.

"Star, look, what kind of soul beast's footprints are these?" In the direction Sword Douluo was searching, there were many footprints about one meter in size on the mountainside.

“They should be bear footprints,” Ning Xingchen replied.

“Star, there’s a ten-meter-wide crevice in the mountain 500 meters above. These footprints disappear when they reach that spot,” Sword Douluo said.

Ning Xingchen carefully observed the footprints and drew some conclusions.

“Uncle Jian, these footprints are very old. Look at these weeds, and some of the footprints even have trees growing out of them. Judging from the tree rings, they are at least ten years old,” Ning Xingchen said, looking at the broken tree trunk in his hand.

“Xingchen, I feel that the places where these footprints disappear are different from other places, but I can’t quite put my finger on it,” Sword Douluo continued. With these discoveries, he immediately notified Ning Xingchen and the other two to come over.

Ning Xingchen smiled and said, "Uncle Jian, I think it might be the place you mentioned. Take us there to take a look."

"it is good!"

Ning Xingchen and the others followed the footprints. Along the way, Ning Xingchen also discovered some smaller footprints, which were extremely difficult to spot due to the passage of time.

However, all these footprints were pointing towards the place that Sword Douluo had mentioned.

About ten minutes later, Ning Xingchen and his group arrived at the crevice in the mountain that Sword Douluo had mentioned.

Looking at the spot where the footprints disappeared, Ning Xingchen quickly walked over. The mountain crevice was clear and unobstructed, with nothing unusual. However, like Sword Douluo, Ning Xingchen felt that this place was somewhat different from other places.

Ning Xingchen then looked at the rock walls on the left and right, but one of the rock walls caught his attention.

This rock wall looks no different from ordinary rocks, but its material and shape seem to be different. It is also exposed to the wind and sun, but its color and appearance are different from other rocks.

I touched it with my hand to feel it, and then touched other parts of the stone.

"Star, have you found anything?" Sword Douluo asked.

"The feel is different, and the temperature is different too."

After speaking, Ning Xingchen released the Star Sword. With a single swing, the Star Sword landed on the rock wall. Half of the Star Sword was in Ning Xingchen's hand, while the other half entered the rock wall.

Even more strangely, when the Star Sword was drawn, the rock wall showed no signs of attack and remained completely intact.

Ning Xingchen said, "There might be an alternate dimension inside, where many high-level soul beasts live."

"But how do we get into this space?" Xue Di asked, as this was the first time she had ever heard of another dimension.

Ning Xingchen said, "If we have no way to get in, then we have no choice but to forcefully break through this space."

"Then what are we talking about? Let's break through it and go straight in," Bone Douluo said.

Ning Xingchen nodded, put away the Star Sword, and then punched it with all his might. A hole more than a meter high was punched into the rock wall in front of him.

"Let's go in," Ning Xingchen said.

Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo, and Snow Empress followed Ning Xingchen inside one after another. They weren't worried about not being able to get out. Since Ning Xingchen could break through the entrance space with one punch, he must have the ability to break out again.

The entrance was pitch black, but after walking about three meters, the light came on.

Looking down at the ground beneath their feet, and at the soul beasts before them, they saw...

"This is?"
