Unlucky Chaos Demon Ape

Three days later.

In the early morning, thick mist drifted over the lake, obscuring Yu Xiaolin's figure.

But the crowd by the lake still stared intently in the direction of the lake's center, as lightning flashed there, and muffled dragon roars continuously emanated from the dense fog, as if struggling to break free from some restraint.

Suddenly, a high-pitched dragon roar erupted. This sound was no longer struggling but instead revealed the joy of release.

At this moment, the dense fog in the lake was churned away, and a powerful oppressive aura swept outwards. Those caught in the sweep felt as if they were locked onto by an invisible eye, but this feeling vanished the next moment.

"Spiritual power projection, Big Brother succeeded."

Hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, everyone looked towards the lake.

At this moment, the rising sun cast golden rays onto the lake, clothing Yu Xiaolin in a golden coat.

Yu Xiaolin slowly rose from the lake, and with a gentle leap, his figure moved through the air like a swimming dragon, landing silently before the crowd by the lake.

"Thank you all for guarding me. After nearly fifty years of arduous cultivation, I finally see the true face of the world today."

Yu Xiaolin then looked at Dai Mubai and smiled, "This young friend's soul power has reached Level 40, just enough to absorb the Fourth Soul Ring. I just swept the ground with my spiritual power and happened to discover a Chaos Demon Ape with a cultivation of around four thousand years. I wonder if it's suitable."

"A four-thousand-year-old Chaos Demon Ape?" Dai Mubai's eyes widened in surprise upon hearing this, and he turned to look at the three teachers.

The three exchanged glances, and smiles appeared on their faces. It was truly a case of "planting flowers with intention, but they don't bloom; planting willows without intention, but they grow."

Yu Xiaogang explained the reason to the two brothers, briefly recounting their group's pursuit of the Chaos Demon Ape.

"The soul power within that Chaos Demon Ape is indeed depleted. If that's the case, it really is the one you were chasing."

Yu Xiaolin led everyone to the spot where the Golden Iron Triangle had used their Martial Soul Fusion Skill. A gully had already been carved out by the Thunder Abyss Python.

As everyone entered the gully, Yu Xiaolin manifested his Dragon Claw and gently dug into the side wall of the gully. A large area of soil was dislodged, creating a two-meter-high opening in the wall.

And within the opening, a massive ape skull lay with its eyes closed. Everyone looked, and it was indeed a Chaos Demon Ape.

"That claw mark on the left side of this Chaos Demon Ape's face was made by my Eagle Claw. There's no mistake," Flender said.

"I suppose this Chaos Demon Ape knew that the Thunder Abyss Python was hidden in this lake and wanted to use the Thunder Abyss Python's power to deal with us. But in the end, it underestimated us and overestimated itself."

Yu Xiaogang shook his head, then said to Dai Mubai, "Come on, Mubai, for your Fourth Soul Ring."

Dai Mubai nodded and walked to the head of the Chaos Demon Ape. He used Martial Soul Possession on his right hand and activated White Tiger Vajra Transformation, manifesting a gleaming tiger claw.

He exerted force with his right hand, and the tiger claw pierced into the Chaos Demon Ape's skull from the eye socket. A purple soul ring then appeared.

Dai Mubai retreated a few steps into the gully, then sat down on the spot, guiding the soul ring to land on himself.

Seeing this, everyone quietly moved to a spot not far away, watching Dai Mubai absorb the soul ring. Yu Xiaogang smiled and nodded, "This trip can be considered a complete success."

His expression then turned somewhat solemn as he asked Yu Xiaolin, "Big Brother, have any elders in the clan broken through to the Titled Douluo realm in recent years?"

"No," Yu Xiaolin sighed. "The clan only has Father as a Titled Douluo. Second Brother, is what you said about the Martial Soul Hall true?"

The others looked over upon hearing this. Yu Xiaogang nodded seriously and said, "It's true. The Martial Soul Hall has immense ambitions. To unify the entire continent, they plan to clear away some obstacles first, including the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

Everyone was shocked to hear this. After all, the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect both belonged to the Upper Three Sects, their names resounding throughout the continent and symbolizing the pinnacle of the Soul Master World. Everyone subconsciously found it hard to believe.

But upon careful consideration of the Martial Soul Hall's current power, they were rendered speechless. Yu Xiaolin couldn't help but sigh, "We should have realized this back when the Martial Soul Hall forced the Clear Sky Sect into seclusion. But at the time, the disaster didn't affect us, so no one spoke up."

Everyone couldn't help but sigh. Who could have known back then that the Martial Soul Hall harbored such great ambitions? Now, over a decade later, the Martial Soul Hall's power was beyond anything any single faction could contend with.

"Therefore, we must unite the Upper Three Sects," Yu Xiaogang stated.

"Second Brother already has a plan?"

"Yes. I have a student who is the daughter of the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and my personal disciple is also a direct descendant of the Clear Sky Sect. By uniting the Upper Three Sects through them, we might have a chance to resist the Martial Soul Hall."

"Excellent! If the Upper Three Sects can unite, then even if the Martial Soul Hall is powerful, they would never dare to make a move," Yu Xiaolin's expression relaxed considerably.

"However, this matter must wait until the Advanced Soul Master Academy Competition concludes in half a year. By then, my students will have graduated, and I can return to the clan to explain this matter to Father," Yu Xiaogang continued.

Yu Xiaolin and Yu Xiaofeng showed joy on their faces upon hearing this.

Yu Xiaolin gritted his teeth and said, "That's for the best. I have now advanced to Soul Douluo and am qualified to serve as an elder. Since you are willing to return to the clan, Second Brother, then Father and I will fight those old fellows in the clan."

Yu Xiaogang felt a warmth in his heart upon hearing this. Liu Erlong chuckled from the side, "No need, Brother Xiaolin. Xiaogang has awakened the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul. Those old fellows have no more excuses."

Yu Xiaolin and Yu Xiaofeng felt as if they had misheard. Under their gaze, Yu Xiaogang extended his left hand and released his Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul.

Looking at the blue dragon soul flying out from Yu Xiaogang's palm, Yu Xiaolin and Yu Xiaofeng's faces were filled with shock.

"Second Brother, is this a martial soul mutation or..." Yu Xiaofeng couldn't help but ask.

"It's a martial soul mutation, and also a reawakening. I now have two martial souls."

After speaking, Yu Xiaogang released Luo Sanpao.

Looking at the round Luo Sanpao on the ground, Yu Xiaolin and Yu Xiaofeng were completely convinced. A Twin Martial Souls phenomenon, rare in a century on the Douluo Continent, they were actually witnessing it today, and it was their own younger brother.

"Good, good, good, Second Brother. I will mention this to Father when I return to the clan. Your return to the clan will then be completely unobstructed," Yu Xiaolin said, patting Yu Xiaogang's shoulder.

"Big Brother, after you mention this to Father, don't make a big fuss to avoid any unforeseen circumstances. Also, have Father keep an eye on the Martial Soul Hall. This matter absolutely cannot be taken lightly."

"I understand."

Perhaps because this Chaos Demon Ape was unwilling, Dai Mubai suffered a rather strong Spirit Shock during the process of absorbing the Soul Ring.

But because his daily training was extremely arduous, Dai Mubai's willpower was exceptionally strong, and he always adhered to his original intentions.

It wasn't until late at night that Dai Mubai finally completely absorbed the fourth Soul Ring. His Fourth Soul Skill was precisely "White Tiger Meteor Shower."

Yu Xiaogang had anticipated this and was quite satisfied.

After resting for a night, the group quickly left the Sunset Forest the next morning.

The Shrek Group returned to Heaven Dou City, while Yu Xiaolin and Yu Xiaofeng headed towards the Thunder Mountain Range west of the Sunset Forest, which was the ancestral land of the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Clan.
