Give the Golden Hawksbill Turtle a Claw

This trip had been a gamble.

After all, he had no way of knowing how much Little Scoundrel could interfere, or whether he was constantly watching Douluo Continent.

Tang San of this era was like one of those rule-based urban legends—you never knew when he would appear or where he would show up.

Fortunately, the gains had been abundant.

He had sealed the Spirit Origin of the eight-hundred-thousand-year-old Sky Dream Ice Silkworm within his Spirit Sea, waiting to absorb it when he had the time.

The most important matter before him was Electrolux.

He activated a wisp of the Gold of Life's power to help Electrolux awaken.

"A magical beast?"

The newly awakened Electrolux spoke subconsciously upon seeing Jiang Heng.

"Senior, our world has no such thing as the magical beasts you speak of. There are only Soul Beasts, and Soul Beasts are merely resources on the path to strength..."

"Would you be willing to help our Soul Beast race escape this situation?"

Jiang Heng broadly explained the circumstances of Douluo Continent and the God Realm before asking Electrolux.

"The rules of this world are thus. Even if they are forcibly changed, only minor adjustments can be made upon the existing foundation. I cannot help you with what you wish to do."

"However, I can lend you a hand. This is the Half-Plane I opened up during my lifetime. You can lead your kin inside..."

Electrolux's memories were incomplete. This was the only solution he could think of for now.

"Rely on a Half-Plane to hide and develop it? Still endure tribulation when it comes, still remain unable to become gods, then wait until the God Realm discovers it someday, devours all the results, and wipes him out?

Jiang Heng was deeply dismissive of the solution Electrolux had offered.

Clearly, as a human, Electrolux could not possibly stand completely on the side of Soul Beasts.

With his experience in the original work, how could he have failed to see the flaws of Soul Spirits? How could he have been unaware of the greed in people's hearts?

One could say that he had later possessed a method to solve those flaws. One could say that Tang San had not given him a chance to implement it. But he had created the beginning of Soul Spirits, and because of him, the excavation of Soul Beasts' roots had begun.

Jiang Heng never cared about what someone said. He only cared about what they did.

Though his soul was human, from the day he became a Soul Beast, he had been destined to stand against the God Realm.

He had his own ideas and goals: survive first, develop for ten thousand years, and throughout those ten thousand years, improve his strength as much as possible. He would devour the Golden Bloodline and, ideally, use it to refine a wisp of the bloodline power of the Golden Sacred Dragon King and the Light Dragon King. Once ten thousand years had passed and the God Realm had moved away, he could hunt Tang San's son and slowly devour the Golden Dragon King's power within him. Once he succeeded, he would not hesitate to devour the Silver Dragon King as well, making himself the Dragon God.

He had brought Electrolux along only to see whether he had a better solution.

Since he did not, this remnant soul was unnecessary.

However, Jiang Heng also knew that with his current spiritual power, directly devouring Electrolux and seizing his memories would not be easy.

Then he would wear him down bit by bit and devour him bit by bit.

He would not give him any chance to recover!

After all, he was merely a wisp of spiritual light. If Electrolux had been allowed even a few years to recover somewhat, Jiang Heng would not have dared to do this.

Over the next period of time, he used the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's Spirit Origin power to improve his spiritual power while constantly eroding Electrolux's remnant soul power through his devouring ability.

In the blink of an eye, another half year passed.

Over those six months, his cultivation successfully broke through to one hundred eighty thousand years. His spiritual power rose rapidly and had already reached the level of a human Super Douluo.

"It's time to try breaking through to two hundred thousand years."

Jiang Heng knew very well that if he wanted to accomplish anything in the early stages—if he wished to preserve his life while lying low and also seize those opportunities—he could only rely on Soul Tools.

Even if he successfully broke through to two hundred thousand years, at most he would be comparable to a level-95 Super Title Douluo among human Soul Masters.

But if he had a level-nine Soul Tool, the result would be completely different.

The highest-level Soul Tool knowledge he could obtain was only related to level-eight Soul Tools. If he wanted to learn about level-nine Soul Tools, he would need to go to the Sun Moon Empire.

Without becoming a Fierce Beast, he could not take human form.

Therefore, he needed to speed things up.

At present, he had assistance beside him that was sufficient to let him take human form.

A one-hundred-ninety-thousand-year Soul Beast, one with a golden attribute and half an Auspicious Beast—the Golden Hawksbill Turtle.

Naturally, he would not kill the Golden Hawksbill Turtle. The backlash of fate was no joke.

"Jiang Cai, go investigate. Have any powerful human Soul Masters recently come to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt Soul Beasts?"

Jiang Heng issued the order while looking at the enormous Golden Earth Dragon King beside him.

This Golden Earth Dragon King was the clanswoman who had broken through by devouring that one-hundred-thousand-year Silver Moon Wolf King. He had named her Jiang Cai.

Although Jiang Cai had reached the one-hundred-thousand-year mark, she had not yet endured the lightning tribulation. Strictly speaking, she was not yet a true one-hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast.

"By your command!"

Upon receiving the order, Jiang Cai immediately set out.

She was the only one in the clan besides the king who had a name. With the king's help, she had even broken through to one hundred thousand years, and her loyalty was absolute.

"My king, two Title Douluo from the Star Luo Empire have brought a woman and her guards here to hunt Soul Beasts. The two Title Douluo are level 91 and level 92 respectively."

Jiang Cai soon returned with the information.

"With that level of strength, breaking the Golden Hawksbill Turtle's defense will be rather difficult!"

After receiving the news, Jiang Heng began to ponder.

Over the years, the Golden Hawksbill Turtle had eaten and drunk exceedingly well here. Jiang Heng had even gone into the Ocean and captured two ten-thousand-year female turtle-type Soul Beasts to serve him.

The purpose was to let him better nourish the clan and better enhance the clan's strength.

Without the Gold of Life draining his vitality, the Golden Hawksbill Turtle's cultivation had also recovered rapidly. He was now comparable to a ninety-thousand-year Soul Beast, but his foundation was that of a one-hundred-ninety-thousand-year Soul Beast. Ordinary Title Douluo truly could not break his defense.

"If so, then give him a punch!"

Without any hesitation, Jiang Heng went directly to where the Golden Hawksbill Turtle lived.

"Golden Earth Dragon King, you're here. Have you brought me something good again?"

The Golden Hawksbill Turtle immediately became delighted when he saw Jiang Heng arrive.

For the past several decades, he had lived an extraordinarily comfortable life here.

Compared with before, what miserable days those had been.

The Golden Hawksbill Turtle was carefree and happy.

"I've raised you for so long. It's time for you to repay me!"

As soon as he approached, Jiang Heng swung his massive dragon claw and slapped it toward the Golden Hawksbill Turtle.

Over the past several decades, he had not merely been increasing his cultivation. His combat strength had also improved.

Especially after obtaining the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's Spirit Origin, his spiritual power had risen swiftly. The minor matter of fusing spiritual power and Soul Power was no longer difficult at all, and he had created his own exclusive combat technique.

This claw was named Star Breaker!

Bang!

As a dull explosive sound rang out, cracks immediately appeared across the Golden Hawksbill Turtle's body, and he began vomiting blood continuously.

That strike had not only broken his defense but also taken half his life.

"How is this possible?"

The Golden Hawksbill Turtle could not believe it. Even two-hundred-thousand-year Fierce Beasts could not break his defense.

"Golden Earth Dragon King, do you dare kill me? Aren't you afraid of the backlash of fate?"

Sensing the crisis of life and death, the Golden Hawksbill Turtle hurriedly roared.

Then Jiang Heng threw him out.

He tossed him directly near those human Title Douluo.
