Ten-Thousand-Year Radiant Sun Golden Lion! Everybody Move, It's Time for Me to Show Off!

Early the next morning, the three walked out of the inn, and Yu Fan once again pulled the two-meter-tall Anywhere Door out of his pants.

Somehow, every time Xue Qinghe saw this, she found it utterly outrageous. She was very curious about what Yu Fan's pants were made of.

Or were they actually a Soul Tool?

They could actually hold the two-meter-tall Anywhere Door...

It really was ridiculous!

"Um, could you stop pulling it out like that every time?"

"What, now you're looking down on me? You damn femboy!"

"What does femboy mean?"

Xue Qinghe had wanted to ask since yesterday.

Yu Fan answered casually.

"Oh, someone like Chrysanthemum Guan."

"Chrysanthemum Guan... Chrysanthemum Douluo?!"

Xue Qinghe remembered Yue Guan and his dainty hand gestures, and a shiver of disgust ran through her.

"You... how dare you say I'm like that!"

Xue Qinghe's face and ears turned red, though this time it wasn't from embarrassment.

She was simply furious.

"All right, let's go."

Yu Fan didn't want to dwell on the subject.

He walked through the Anywhere Door.

She Long spoke quietly from the side.

"Young master, endure for a moment and the winds will calm and the waves will settle! Don't stoop to arguing with this fellow whose brain isn't normal. I think he was born with a defect right here!"

He pointed at his forehead, then shook his head.

"..."

Xue Qinghe thought he was right.

She couldn't waste too much time arguing with someone like that.

The core region of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Yu Fan walked out of the Anywhere Door and glanced at the skeleton of the Ten-Thousand-Year Light-Winged Mantis, which had been gnawed clean.

"Oh, you ate that fast, you little glutton!"

When the Ten-Thousand-Year Ghost Tiger saw Yu Fan, it immediately wagged its tail and lay down at his feet.

"Awoo~!"

In just one night, its cultivation had successfully advanced from fifteen thousand years to twenty thousand years.

Although its conversion rate from devouring wasn't as good as the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's, gaining five thousand years in one night was still terrifying.

Of course, there was another very important reason.

That was...

This Ten-Thousand-Year Ghost Tiger was too much trash!

It didn't deserve the Light-Winged Mantis's corpse at all!

So naturally, devouring a high-quality Soul Beast let it advance quickly!

"Stop barking like a dog. From now on, follow me."

Yu Fan stroked the Ten-Thousand-Year Ghost Tiger's head. He thought keeping a Soul Beast was pretty imposing, and even if he couldn't fly, he could ride the Ghost Tiger everywhere.

Wasn't this the Douluo Continent's ghost-fire scooter?

He was going to be a ghost-fire scooter kid!

"Awoo, awoo!"

The Ten-Thousand-Year Ghost Tiger was thrilled. Following such a powerful Soul Master around and freeloading off him, it would have trouble not breaking through.

Maybe one day, it could follow Yu Fan and freeload its way to becoming a Hundred-Thousand-Year Ghost Tiger. Then it would be an overlord.

What Soul Beast wouldn't have to call it by that name on sight!

Heavenly Emperor Tiger!

"Uncle She, look!"

Xue Qinghe pointed at the Ghost Tiger, whose cultivation had broken through to twenty thousand years, and a grave look appeared on her face.

"That Ghost Tiger actually obeys his every command!"

"If it breaks through to a hundred thousand years in the future, it might really become a fighting force for him!"

"A hundred thousand years?"

Hearing that, She Long gave a disdainful smile.

"Hahaha!"

"Young master, you worry too much. If even a Ghost Tiger could break through to become a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, the heavens would really be about to change."

"The further Soul Beasts advance, the harder it becomes to break through. Besides, Ghost Tigers themselves are only good at hunting and ambushes; they don't count as very strong predators."

"So if a Ghost Tiger really reached a high age, I'm afraid it would be hunted by other Soul Beasts and end up as a meal."

What he said made a great deal of sense.

After all, in the Star Dou Great Forest, the weak were meat for the strong. The weak could only be devoured by the strong.

As for Soul Beasts stronger than the Ten-Thousand-Year Ghost Tiger...

There was no telling how many there were.

"That's true."

Xue Qinghe walked up to Yu Fan and asked,

"Tang San, where are we going to look for a Soul Beast next?"

"We just need to have Little Black take us there."

Yu Fan grinned and looked at the Ten-Thousand-Year Ghost Tiger.

"You should know what a light-attribute Soul Beast is, right? Go find one for my brother Xue!"

"Awoo, awoo!"

The Ten-Thousand-Year Ghost Tiger nodded repeatedly.

It had now figured something out: these Soul Masters only cared about Soul Rings and had no intention of taking the Soul Beasts' corpses at all.

Soul Beast corpses were treasures to Soul Beasts.

As for Soul Rings?

What were those things?

It couldn't absorb them anyway!

In a Soul Beast's eyes, all the essence was in the body!

"You can do that?"

Xue Qinghe looked at the Ghost Tiger, which had suddenly lain down. At first, she had been wondering what the Soul Beast wanted to do.

Then she saw Yu Fan climb straight onto its back.

"There's no such thing!"

"You're just scared, young master!"

"..."

"Let's go, Little Black!"

Yu Fan rode the Ghost Tiger in the lead, with Xue Qinghe and She Long following behind.

The Ghost Tiger's sense of smell could pick up the scent of Soul Beasts, and it was already very familiar with the Star Dou Great Forest.

As it darted through the trees, its speed wasn't hampered in the slightest. Instead, it ran faster and faster.

Meanwhile, She Long, whose Soul Douluo cultivation had been restored, found himself struggling to keep up with the Ghost Tiger.

Not only was he hindered by the terrain,

he also had to carry Xue Qinghe as he flew.

"No wonder he wanted to ride the Ghost Tiger!"

Xue Qinghe finally understood.

Yu Fan was a total lazy dog!

There he was, sleeping soundly on the Ten-Thousand-Year Ghost Tiger's back!

Meanwhile, they were struggling to catch up behind him!

What kind of behavior was that?

"We're here!"

Yu Fan, riding the Ghost Tiger, suddenly stopped.

She Long and Qian Renxue arrived shortly afterward.

"This is! A Ten-Thousand-Year Radiant Sun Golden Lion!"

She Long couldn't hide his shock.

"Young master, this is an extremely rare attack-type, light-attribute Soul Beast! If you can absorb its Soul Ring, you'll surely obtain a powerful attack-type Soul Skill!"

"Then we'll choose it."

A trace of pleasant surprise also appeared on Xue Qinghe's face. She hadn't expected this Soul Hunt to be so easy.

Even though She Long only had Soul Douluo cultivation now,

dealing with a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast would be as easy as reaching out and catching it.

"Yes, young master!"

Just as She Long was about to charge forward,

the next moment,

Yu Fan reached out and stopped them both.

"Wait."

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

Xue Qinghe looked at Yu Fan in puzzlement.

He pressed two fingers together and lightly touched them to his forehead.

"Let me deal with this Soul Beast. The Soul Ring is yours."

"..."

She Long didn't try to stop him. Since this fellow wanted to go,

he might as well let Yu Fan go.

After all, the ultimate goal was still for Xue Qinghe to absorb the Soul Ring.

And he could save himself some effort too!

"But what is he doing?"

She Long couldn't quite understand, but he soon noticed specks of golden starlight beginning to emerge from Yu Fan's forehead.

"Could... could that be his Martial Soul?!"

"Is he finally going to reveal his Martial Soul?"

Xue Qinghe was also somewhat surprised. Looking at the imposing golden starlight on Yu Fan's forehead, she felt it was highly extraordinary.

Yu Fan's Martial Soul was at least a top-tier Martial Soul!

"Spear, come!"

Yu Fan swept his two fingers sharply away from his forehead.

Then a golden spear instantly appeared in his hand!

A dragon's head crowned the golden spear. Its shaft bore a golden-scaled dragon pattern, and dragon claws wrapped tightly around the grip. Most shocking of all,

the spearpoint held an incomparably terrifying power of destruction!

And not just the power of destruction!

There was also a bizarre power that could devour life force!

[Super Divine Artifact-Golden Dragon Spear]

"Watch closely. This strike is going to look cool!"

Xue Qinghe didn't know whether it would look cool.

But she really had been awed by its extravagance.

No, that wasn't right...

She had been frightened!

"This presence..."

Xue Qinghe was completely dumbfounded.

For she had actually sensed a long-familiar power of a god from the Golden Dragon Spear!

How was that possible?!

This power...

was actually tens of thousands of times more terrifying than what she had felt when receiving the Angel God's inheritance!

"His golden spear is actually stronger than the Angel Holy Sword Grandpa guards!"

Xue Qinghe was so shocked that she couldn't speak.

"...!"

She Long's eyes widened even further. The Six-Winged Angel was engraved on Spirit Hall's token, and right at its center was an Angel Holy Sword.

Although he had never actually seen the Angel Holy Sword,

but...

before his Golden Dragon Spear, even the Angel Holy Sword probably amounted to little!

"Wh-what kind of power was this?"

"Why couldn't even this old man comprehend the power contained within this spear?!"

She Long's shock was easy to imagine. He could sense that the Golden Dragon Spear was extraordinary. It contained a kind of power that was not Soul Power.

"Of course you couldn't understand it."

Yu Fan grinned.

"Because this was the power of a god!"

She Long: Σ_(꒪ཀ꒪"∠)Ⳋ!!

Xue Qinghe (Qian Renxue): Σ(ﾟ∀ﾟﾉ)ﾉ!!
