You Chen Meets the Two Beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest

You Chen's Starlight Avatar's disguise can even fool Titled Douluo for a short time. As long as he doesn't fight with all his might or get hurt, under normal circumstances, no one can tell that it's a clone.

You Chen deliberately changed the faces of his six clones, and even took into account that Soul Beast might have face blindness to humans, so he intentionally made different adjustments to their appearances.

One of the clones, A, with an aged appearance, shouted at Er Ming from afar, "Titan Giant Ape, my master has no intention of being your enemy, retreat at once!"

These seemingly conciliatory words immediately caused Er Ming's forehead to bulge out in a deep frown, and his anger flared up instantly.

No way! You killed so many Soul Beasts on my turf, and now you're saying you "have no intention of being an enemy"?!

"Roar!"

Er Ming roared and slammed his mountain-sized fist directly at clone A.

Large swaths of vegetation, soil, and gravel were forced to be overturned and churned by Er Ming's immense force.

However, the punch undoubtedly missed its mark.

Although You Chen's Starlight Avatar only has the overall strength of Soul Douluo entry-level character, it is similar to the original character in that it is speed-oriented, and in terms of speed alone, it is definitely one of the fastest among Soul Douluo.

In contrast, the Titan Giant Ape is relatively weak in terms of speed and agility.

Furthermore, since the clone was controlled by You Chen, whose spiritual power cultivation had reached the Spirit Domain Realm, it was not difficult for him to dodge the attack if he had made prior preparations.

Er Ming was naturally even more furious about this.

Although Er Ming was not good at mental power, its mental power had reached the Spirit Abyss Realm level, so it naturally discovered You Chen's true form, which was absorbing the Soul Ring, from afar.

At first Er Ming was in a state of mind that he didn't care whether he swatted them or not, as these low-level Soul Master were as annoying and weak as flies.

But now, it's thinking of just killing this old guy who's spouting nonsense first!

These top-tier Soul Beast are all uniquely endowed. For example, the Emperor Golden Lion Beast lacks defensive capabilities but possesses invincible abilities, while the Titan Giant Ape lacks speed but has Gravity Domain like the Innate Domain that weakens its opponents' speed.

Although Er Ming is not good at speed, its racial advantage is there. Even in its weakest area, it is still at the top level of ordinary Titled Douluo. And once this Gravity Domain is activated, it knows that this little fly has no way to escape!

At that moment, the remaining five clones simultaneously sprang out and launched attacks on clone A and Er Ming using the self-generated Storm Airflow.

Obstructing Er Ming is secondary; the most important objective is naturally to use the power of the wind to pull clone A out of Er Ming's attack range.

Boom!

With a calculated attack, Er Ming's massive fist missed its mark once again, and the earth of the Star Dou Great Forest instantly emitted a mournful cry.

"Damn bugs!"

Er Ming saw these little insects toying with him like this, he instantly flew into a rage.

Logically speaking, Soul Douluo would be instantly killed in one round by a monster like the 100,000-year-old Titan Giant Ape.

Moreover, You Chen's clones are not actually Soul Douluo, and although they have combat power close to that of Soul Douluo, they do not have the Martial Soul Avatar of Soul Sage Saint. In terms of upper limit, they are not as good as a true Soul Sage.

But the key to their victory lay in the seamless coordination of the six clones. In addition, You Chen had a firm grasp on Er Ming's hot temper and straightforward fighting style, just like using six super soldiers to kite hero units, and in a short time, he had Er Ming under his thumb.

You Chen's original goal was not to use his clone to cause any harm to Er Ming. As long as he could hold Er Ming off, that would be his victory.

However, Da Ming, who was observing from afar with his mental power, had already sensed something was wrong and was speeding towards them.

As they drew closer and his mental probes became clearer, Da Ming's expression finally changed slightly. He hurriedly transmitted his voice to Er Ming: "Er Ming! Don't be fooled! Those six people you're fighting aren't real Soul Master at all; they're just using clone abilities! Don't get entangled with them anymore!"

Er Ming is simple-minded, not truly brainless. After being reminded by Da Ming, he immediately realized what was going on.

It abruptly turned its head, its eyes flashing like lightning as it stared directly at the figure not far away, cross-legged and absorbing Soul Ring: 'These are all clones of this Soul Master; he's stalling for time!'

If being tricked by a few Soul Master brought Er Ming 10 points of anger, then realizing that he was just being tricked by You Chen's remotely controlled clone, Er Ming's anger level soared to 100 points!

"I'm going to kill you!"

The Titan Giant Ape's body suddenly swelled up another size.

It completely ignored the attacks of the several clones, its knees slightly bent, and its two thick thighs, as strong as pillars supporting the sky, sank deeply into the ground.

With a leap, after gathering its strength, it instantly burst forth at several times the speed of sound, rushing towards You Chen with a thunderous roar that shattered the sound barrier.

However, at this very moment.

One of the clones quietly took out a long black hair from its Storage Soul Tool, raised it high, and glanced at the direction where Da Ming was rushing over.

Even though it was a long distance that would take the Da Ming Dynasty several minutes to reach, the Da Ming still had the illusion that they were meeting each other's gazes across the distance.

But at this moment, Da Ming's gaze was drawn to the long black hair raised by his clone, and his pupils shrank instantly. He transmitted his voice to Er Ming with great urgency.

"No! Er Ming! Stop! Stop right now!"

Er Ming, who was in a fit of rage, regained some clarity upon hearing this inexplicable telepathic transmission. Looking at the man right in front of him, so close at hand, it did indeed waver.

In its heart, its elder brother's words were never wrong.

Even if a disagreement arises temporarily, it will be proven later that it was the other way around.

Er Ming always trusted and obeyed Da Ming's words without question.

However, the speed and power it unleashed in its rage were too fast and too strong, and the time to stop was exceptionally short.

With less than a fraction of a second of hesitation, Er Ming missed his chance to back down.

Although it managed to reduce its strength and slightly twist its body, its mountain-like back still pressed down on You Chen with an incredibly terrifying impact.

Da Ming witnessed this scene from afar, his two bull-like eyes wide open to the limit.

Boom!

The earth shook violently.

Er Ming's mountain-like body finally crashed solidly into You Chen.

Da Ming: "..."

He remained silent for a long time, but still made great efforts to get here.

At the same time, he received Er Ming slightly aggrieved voice from Erming through their mental connection. "Big brother, um... what's going on? Why did you suddenly tell me to stop?"

After a long silence and a few seconds of internal struggle, Da Ming finally sighed and replied telepathically, "He... that human Soul Master has Sister Xiao Wu's hair."

Another earthquake shook the ground.

Er Ming hurriedly sat up, and after a long while, he replied to Da Ming, "Brother, he... he's not dead yet! Should I tie him up now or what?"

Da Ming was speechless.

Although he wasn't dead, You Chen was clearly severely injured.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Da Ming himself wouldn't have believed that this human Soul Master had only suffered severe injuries after withstanding Er Ming's violent impact.

Although his muscles were torn and his blood was surging, he did not die in the end; he was only severely injured, not in a critical or dying state.

The Da Ming was deeply shocked. Perhaps this was also a factor that prevented it from providing an answer immediately.

When Er Ming came over, You Chen actually had a chance to dodge.

But this would undoubtedly interrupt the refining of the Soul Ring and forcibly break free from the state of absorbing the Soul Ring.

Even You Chen didn't react immediately to Er Ming action.

Sometimes, no matter how much you plan, it can't outweigh a momentary lapse in judgment from a simpleton.

Even if he took out Xiao Wu's hair, it was still a second too late.

You Chen had to admit that for a moment, he felt a little flustered.

If a normal Soul Master saw a mountain collapsing and crashing into their face, they would probably have only two reactions: either be too scared to move or run away immediately.

But You Chen is neither of those.

After a moment of panic, You Chen regained his clear thinking.

No matter how fast Er Ming is, due to the distance, You Chen is capable of activating his accelerated Soul Bone Skill to escape Er Ming's attack range after suffering the backlash of failing to advance, but You Chen is unwilling to accept such a loss.

With his ruthless mind, he made precise calculations in an instant, analyzing that his physique, which was among the top tier of Super Douluo, could withstand this attack.

As long as one can maintain mental clarity, one will still be able to absorb the Soul Ring.

The reason is simple: a 100,000-year-old Soul Ring is far from the limit that You Chen's eighth soul ring can withstand in his First Incarnation.

Even after suffering severe injuries and experiencing a significant decline in his condition, he was still on the verge of absorbing this Soul Ring.

If this were a Ferocious Beast Soul Ring, You Chen would definitely not be able to maintain the state of absorbing the Soul Ring after being hit by Er Ming, and would directly be killed by the backlash of the Soul Ring.

And the final outcome was exactly as You Chen had calculated.

He was seriously injured, but not on the verge of death; he even had the strength to fight.

In that ruthless state, comparable to a machine, pushing one's spirit to its limits, You Chen unknowingly touched upon the realm of Heart of Clear Mirror Still Water.

The strength of his mental power quietly jumped up a small step, reaching the mid-stage of the Spirit Domain Realm.

Then...

You Chen opened his eyes.

His face was covered in blood, yet You Chen's eyes were clear, as if the blood was merely paint.

Two minutes after suffering a severe blow, You Chen finally finished absorbing the Soul Ring and activated its Soul Ring Soul Skill immediately.

In the distance, Daming, who was sending a Da Ming message to Er Ming to calm him down, suddenly changed his expression again. "Er Ming, be careful!"

Er Ming had already sensed the fluctuations after You Chen used his Soul Skill and realized that You Chen had awakened, but it was still a step too late.

"You really hit me hard, Titan Giant Ape."

A emotionless voice came from behind it, and the next moment, a punch imbued with Stardust Power slammed into Er Ming's back.

That was Er Ming the spot where You Chen.

Boom!

With this punch, You Chen didn't hold back at all, and even extravagantly activated the fourth Soul Skill of his Second Incarnation, Emperor Golden Body, just for the power boost.

Therefore, the power of this punch reached the peak level of Super Douluo, sending the mountain-like Er Ming flying.

Can you imagine that?

The image shows a small mountain, several meters high, flying in mid-air.

The sound of Erming flying Er Ming and crashing into countless ancient trees, some hundreds of meters tall, was as magnificent and powerful as a magnitude 10 earthquake.

Boom!

Amidst the violent earthquake, Er Ming finally crashed to the ground.

"Roar!"

Amidst the agonizing screams, Er Ming stood up again, his eyes reddening.

Even with the physique of Titan Giant Ape, such a blow caused serious internal injuries, Er Ming now felt his internal organs shaking.

But at that moment, the Sky Azure Bull Python finally arrived at the scene.

"As expected of you, Sky Azure Bull Python."

Before Da Ming could question Xiao Wu about her hair, You Chen smiled and said, "That foolish Titan Giant Ape didn't realize those were just my clones, but you noticed the clues from such a distance. I have to admit, that was my mistake. If I weren't still in relatively good health, I might really be here today."

The reason why Er Ming like that was not only because Er Ming was too quick to act, but also because he miscalculated Da Ming's eyesight and judgment.

You Chen didn't expect that both Ju Gui and Da Ming only discovered the truth about the clone after damaging it, Da Ming, who was so far away, had already figured out the truth about the clone.

Therefore, although it is not explicitly stated in the original work, this Sky Azure Bull Python's attainment in spiritual power is definitely not low. Even if it has not reached the Spirit Domain Realm, it has probably reached the peak of the Spirit Abyss Realm.

Well, judging from the fact that its Soul Bone Skill "Sky Blue Sluggish God Claw" determines the duration of the slowing effect based on the strength of the attacker's mental power, the Sky Azure Bull Python's Sluggish Domain may act on both the mental and physical fields simultaneously.

Therefore, it is not so surprising that the Da Ming possessed such high spiritual attainments, or rather, that it had Soul Beast with Mental Attribute.

In the realm of the mind, it refers to the innate ability to slow down or regulate the perception of speed and changes in physical speed...

'Hmm?... In that case, I should increase the weight given to choosing the Sky Azure Bull Python as a candidate for the seventh ring. If by then I haven't evolved my Martial Soul again, perhaps I can rely on the Sky Azure Bull Python's Sluggish Domain to comprehend a relative acceleration realm.'

A glint flashed in You Chen's eyes as he silently pondered.

In fact, after his Martial Soul Evolution, Da Ming had always been on his list of Soul Ring candidates, but now he stands out even more.

Unaware that he had been silently added to the list of potential Soul Ring candidates, Da Ming showed no intention of responding to You Chen's words. He lowered his massive bull head and said in a deep voice, "Human, why do you have that hair, and why did you show it to me at that time!"

You Chen's possession of Xiao Wu's hair was already enough to Da Ming attention, but the fact that You Chen would deliberately show Xiao Wu's hair to them was even more noteworthy!

Because this could very well mean that... You Chen has already captured Xiao Wu her to reveal their relationship!

This is why Da Ming stopped Er Ming.

The worst-case scenario, where Xiao Wu has already been hunted down, goes without saying; the Da Ming didn't even want to think about it.

If this worst-case scenario were to happen, Er Ming were to kill You Chen, they wouldn't even know where Xiao Wu was, let alone be able to rescue her!

Er Ming heard Da Ming questioning You Chen, he immediately realized what was going on.

When a "simp" is showing concern for a goddess, his mind often works so fast that even his friends can hardly understand it.

That's how Er Ming is.

After Da Ming pointed it out, it now fully realized the problem.

"Kid, tell me where Sister Xiao Wu is! But if you say anything unpleasant, my brother and I will tear your mouth apart right now! Be prepared!"

Er Ming clenched his fists, barely managing to hold back from smashing them down, but instead let out a deafening roar at You Chen.

Looking at the two turtle-like men... no, turtle-like beasts, You Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Human! What are you laughing at! Shut up!"

Er Ming didn't know what You Chen was laughing about, but it felt a strong sense of unease from You Chen's laughter.

"Er Ming!"

Da Ming reprimanded Er Ming, then narrowed his eyes slightly and said to You Chen, "Humans, our patience is limited. Since you didn't continue after that punch, you must not want to fight us anymore, but have something to say!"

"You're quite clever."

You Chen glanced at Da Ming, a mocking smile playing on his lips, "Don't worry, the truth is a little different from what you imagine."

He pulled out a Soul Tool with video recording capabilities and started playing it, under the wary gazes of Da Ming Er Ming.

"Take me with you too."

The sound and the visuals were synchronized. Upon hearing the sound and seeing the visuals, both Da Ming and Er Ming's beast faces froze.

The video playing was of Xiao Wu, her face full of hope, clutching You Chen's arm and You Chen with him to take her away from Notting City.

biu——.

You Chen pressed the button to end the playback and retrieved the Soul Tool.

"Etc!"

Er Ming made the gesture of Erkang, as if he only wanted to see Xiao Wu's face and smile one more time, even if she showed the same expression to other men.

Da Ming asked with a complicated expression, "Who... exactly are you? Did Sister Xiao Wu herself tell you about our relationship with Sister Xiao Wu?"

Although the man in the picture is dressed differently from the man in front of him, they are clearly the same person.

As for the suspicion that the image was fake? Although the image is indeed real, the Da Ming is clearly not smart enough to consider the possibility that images can be faked.

Just like many people don't know or believe that scammers can use AI to Simulation the appearance of someone you know during a video call.

In particular, the fleeting yet vivid expression on Xiao Wu's face Da Ming believe that she was a real person, and he had no doubts whatsoever.

"It's just simple reasoning."

You Chen silently took out a pair of glasses, put them on, and gently pushed them up, saying, "I met Xiao Wu in a town on the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest. As my cultivation improved, after discovering that she was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, it wasn't difficult to deduce the possibility of a connection between you based on the current information about Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in the Star Dou Great Forest. More importantly, just now, in order to save my life, I naturally did everything I could. To grasp at the last straw, I would instinctively want to believe and try any possibility."

Da Ming nodded, completely agreeing with this statement.

After all, it couldn't possibly imagine that someone could calmly think and analyze, or even make meticulous calculations, under such circumstances.

This kind of thing is beyond the comprehension of most people in this world, let alone Soul Beast.

It is a mysterious realm that only You Chen, who is undoubtedly number one in the world in terms of spiritual talent and potential, could possibly reach.

"So, in the end, it was our side that was exposed?"

Da Ming gazed intently at You Chen and asked, "Human, how is Sister Xiao Wu doing now?"

You Chen chuckled and spread his hands, saying, "Didn't you see it just now? I didn't take her with me. It's been several years since we parted ways in Notting City. I have my own things to do. How would I know how she's been doing since then?"

Seeing You Chen's appearance, Er Ming You Chen instantly labeled him as a heartless scumbag who dumped his girlfriend. Enraged, he glared at him and said in a deep voice, "Kid, don't think you can get away with this! Even if you have a connection with Sister Xiao Wu, it can't cover up your previous wanton slaughter of Soul Beast!"

Er Ming was indeed angry, but how could the deaths of his underlings compare to the news of Sister Xiao Wu?

He was merely using this as an excuse to threaten You Chen and vent his anger towards You Chen!

What one desires but cannot obtain is discarded by the other party like worn-out shoes...

How it wished it were itself that was being pulled and persuaded to stay by Sister Xiao Wu!

How could this not Er Ming!

However, You Chen just looked at Er Ming with the eyes of Er Ming idiot and said, "Soul Beast and humans are inherently hostile to each other. What's so strange about me killing Soul Beast? Soul Master hunting Soul Beast and Soul Beast hunting Soul Master is a matter of course."

Er Ming's blood boiled, and he roared, "So, you think the same way about Sister Xiao Wu?! I knew it! I knew it was true! You inherently Evil God King human Soul Master, I'll kill you right here with my own hands!"

You Chen's face showed even more sympathy. "Once Soul Beast Transformation, it belongs to us humans and there is no longer any reproductive isolation between them and humans. After reaching the seventh ring, it is completely no different from human Soul Master. Even if someone wants to use the righteous cause of killing Soul Beast to hunt down the Soul Ring and Soul Bone of transformed Soul Beast, that is just a cover for killing for treasure and fighting for interests. But you two, as Soul Beast, are still thinking of your companions who have already joined the human camp. Aren't you being a bit too nosy? Whether in terms of race or lifespan, you are already completely different beings."

This is a lie. Although Soul Beast Transformation, they still retain their Soul Beast bloodline and pass it on to their offspring. This is why Xiao Wu feels an innate affinity for Tang San.

But Da Ming Er Ming knew nothing of these things. Upon hearing this, they were both shocked.

They don't quite understand things like race and reproductive isolation, but they can immediately grasp the difference in Soul Beast.

A life form with a lifespan of only a hundred years, or at most a few hundred years, is naturally worlds apart from those that have survived the tribulation and can live for at least another hundred thousand years.

The 149 Emperor Golden Body could be used 5 times a day, felt even more overpowered than the Ferocious Beast Soul Ring. It should be nerfed to 3 times a day.
