Perhaps there are some secrets involved, but so what?
In Ghost Douluo's view, there is nothing more important than Su Chen himself right now.
"It seems the plan has to be terminated ahead of schedule. The appearance of the Linwu Silkworm, a soul beast that has not appeared for thousands of years, on the outskirts may indicate that something unknown has happened in the Star Dou Great Forest."
Ghost Douluo frowned, looking somewhat grave.
Is the Silkworm of Linwu the same soul beast that was the first soul ring I got?
Su Chen was a little curious.
But now was clearly not the time to ask questions, so he decided to go back and look it up himself.
Having deliberately shown so much, I should have a chance to meet the Pope when I get back, right?
"no problem."
Chrysanthemum Douluo nodded.
Although his feelings were still complicated, he knew the priorities, especially after Su Chen had shown such extraordinary talent. Getting Su Chen safely back to the Dao Martial Soul Hall was the most important thing.
Having made up their minds, the three of them hurried along and quickly arrived at the meeting point. After instructing Su Chen not to wander off, the Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluos also left in a hurry.
With the help of a titled Douluo hunting down a spirit ring, especially given the time constraints, the speed was not particularly fast.
Soon after, Su Chen sensed some subtle fluctuations in soul power, indicating that someone was absorbing a soul ring.
Before absorbing a spirit ring, such fluctuations would have been extremely difficult to detect, but now, it only requires a little concentration.
It seems that obtaining the spirit ring has had quite an impact on me.
Su Chen shook his head and began to think about his next move.
They need resources, money, and influence.
Therefore, it was essential to expose himself to the higher-ups of the Spirit Hall in advance, which is why he showed some of his abilities to Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo.
To gain a voice, one must demonstrate one's value and showcase it to discerning individuals.
Bibi Dong was his target.
This youngest pope of the Spirit Hall, in the decades that followed, brought the Spirit Hall's power to its peak, and its overall strength rose to a new level.
Putting aside some personal opinions, this woman is top-tier in both intellect and strength on this continent. If it weren't for the protagonist's halo, she would definitely have gotten what she wanted.
A smart partner is especially important to Su Chen; he doesn't want to waste his time on idiots.
Just like in the ninja world, after he reached a deep cooperation with Orochimaru, the first thing he did was to completely sever ties with Danzo.
More importantly, Bibi Dong's weaknesses are very obvious, and in a sense, she is surprisingly naive.
This is a good thing for Su Chen.
After all, his goals and Bibi Dong's goals did not have any substantial conflict.
Rustle!
The slight rustling of the bushes startled the boy from his thoughts, but after glancing up, Su Chen lost interest.
"Hahahaha, I'm back!!"
Yan struggled to squeeze out of the bushes and laughed joyfully, but his laughter stopped abruptly the moment he saw Su Chen, and he instinctively shrank back.
Just a moment later, he remembered something, straightened his bent back, and his expression became smug and arrogant.
"Hey, you!"
He put his hands on his hips, pointed at Su Chen, and snorted coldly.
"You've obtained your first spirit ring too, right? Do you dare to have a match with me!"
That idiot brat.
Su Chen ignored him and continued to close her eyes to rest, conceiving his plan in her mind.
Tang San should have just transmigrated this year, and he still has about ten years to plan his moves. However, this body is still young, and the things it can do are very limited.
Even with Bibi Dong's trust and support, he could only use his transformation technique to do certain things, which contradicted his plans.
Six years old is still too young. If you want to stand on the front line and show your face in the Spirit Hall, you need to be at least twelve, thirteen or fourteen years old.
Su Chen had a headache.
"What, you coward, you don't dare? I knew you were a spineless coward!!"
However, when Yan saw that Su Chen ignored him, he angrily stepped forward and, without saying a word, directly released his martial soul!
The towering Flame Lord was enveloped in a layer of magma, radiating intense heat, with a yellow, century-old soul ring wrapped around it, exuding an awe-inspiring presence!
"See that? This is a hundred-year-old spirit ring. If you kneel down and apologize to me now, admitting you're a coward, I won't lay a hand on you. Otherwise..."
"I'll let you taste the power of a century-old soul skill!!!"
The white-haired youth, disturbed, frowned, his dark eyes fixed on Yan, and coldly uttered a single word.
"roll."
The coldness emanating from the boy's dark eyes was exactly the same as that day. Yan was instinctively frightened and took a step back, his fighting spirit instantly diminishing by half. However, he twitched his ears and heard Xie Yue and Hu Liena's voices.
If Hu Liena could defeat Su Chen in front of them, wouldn't she be able to...
Thinking of this, Yan gritted his teeth, suppressing his fear, and took a step forward. "You dare."
boom!
With a loud bang, the white-haired youth vanished in an instant, appearing before Yan in the blink of an eye. In his raised right hand, a ball of azure light condensed, and his dark eyes were filled with indifferent killing intent!
A strong wind blew across Yan's face, but he had no time to care.
The murderous intent in the boy's eyes and the eerie blue light in his hand were like the scythe of death, completely enveloping him.
I'm going to die, I'm going to die, I'm going to die!!!
Several scarlet characters flashed in Yan's mind, and the chill of death shot straight up his spine to the top of his head, making him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Aaaaaaah!!!"
Perhaps it was the sudden surge of survival instinct that allowed this talented genius to escape from extreme fear for a moment, and at that moment, the yellow hundred-year soul ring shone with an incomparably brilliant light.
"Hellfire Magma Surge!!"
Crimson lava shot into the sky, all rushing towards Su Chen, a scene witnessed by Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and the others who had just arrived.
But things happened too fast, and they had no time to react. They could only watch helplessly as the lava engulfed Su Chen.
"Su Chen!!!"
Hu Liena exclaimed in surprise, and Xie Yue also frowned. But the next second, both of them stared wide-eyed in astonishment.
The towering, scorching magma didn't even last half a second against the azure sphere of light before it was completely annihilated and disappeared.
At this moment, only that dazzling azure blue remained on the field!
boom!!!!
The powerful blast blew everyone's hair and clothes wildly, and smoke and dust spread out, sending grass and dirt flying and pelting the trees with a crackling sound.
Whoosh!
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo appeared instantly. With grim expressions, they waved their hands, and a strong wind blew away the smoke, revealing the scene inside.
The once flat grass had disappeared, replaced by a spiral-shaped pit. Yan stood in the very center, his face pale, his legs trembling and dripping water. He was somewhere between unconsciousness and consciousness.
"This is the last time I'll forgive you. If there's a next time, you can bury yourself here."
The white-haired youth slowly withdrew his right hand, gradually withdrawing his chakra. After nodding slightly to everyone, he sat back down on his own.
His desire to avoid further complications does not necessarily mean he has a lot of patience.
Holding back was a sign of respect and goodwill towards Chrysanthemum Demon and the two Douluo, as well as Bibi Dong behind them.
"Sigh, I knew it. How could this kid be so blind?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo shook his head.
This kid has good talent, but he's a bit too prone to courting death.
Fortunately, Su Chen didn't go too far, otherwise even if he had been killed, the Spirit Hall wouldn't have been able to do anything to him.
Yan is rare, but Su Chen is one of a kind.
"Xie Yue, go help Yan. He probably won't be able to walk properly anymore, Xie Yue?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo raised an eyebrow, turned around and saw those dumbfounded little faces, and immediately felt a little helpless.
"Fine, I'll do it myself."
Su Chen's battle ended quickly, but the fading purple ring still deeply stung everyone's eyes.
"The first spirit ring in a thousand years?"
Xie Yue stared intently at the fading purple, his throat dry and his eyes filled with disbelief.
"this"
Hu Liena and another girl stood frozen in place.
