Bi An Bloodline; Azure Blood Dragon Beast

Yan Shaozhe saw Lu Heqiu nod his head gently.

He immediately gasped.

His gaze also turned towards the inner region of the Star Dou Great Forest.

There was more than one Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast there!

If Lu Heqiu were to pick them one by one, they might not be able to handle it. Who would go around fighting Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts for fun!

Moreover, Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts were on the protected list of the core area inhabitants.

Unless they were exceptionally ferocious.

Otherwise, touching one.

Might cause the inhabitants of the core area to erupt.

Whether they could leave the Star Dou Great Forest then would be another matter.

"You little fellow have quite the ambition!"

"Fine, fine, this old man will take you in to see, to see if you, little fellow, can truly absorb a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring!"

Xuan Zi seemed to be amused by Lu Heqiu's ambition, his voice carrying emotion as he spoke. He clearly didn't believe Lu Heqiu could actually absorb a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

But today, he was determined to take Lu Heqiu to see.

To see what kind of mountain a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast was!

That was the pinnacle for Soul Masters to absorb Soul Rings.

How could a first-ring Soul Master covet it?

"Xuan Zi!"

Yan Shaozhe exclaimed towards Xuan Zi.

After speaking, Xuan Zi directly snatched Lu Heqiu from Ma Xiaotao's embrace and flew towards the inner region. Their Shrek Academy's map clearly indicated the presence of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts.

In the past, they avoided letting students enter these areas, but now, it had become the direction for everyone to find Soul Beasts.

Yan Shaozhe watched the streak of light and didn't dare to hesitate, directly pulling Ma Xiaotao and flying towards Xuan Zi.

If Ma Xiaotao was too far from Lu Heqiu, something bad could happen!

When Yan Shaozhe pulled Ma Xiaotao.

Ma Xiaotao's condition was already somewhat unstable.

Yan Shaozhe didn't dare to delay for a moment, decisively unleashing his full strength and flying towards Xuan Zi. Xuan Zi hadn't used his full power, and was soon caught up by Yan Shaozhe. He was currently hovering in mid-air, holding Lu Heqiu, and looking down.

"Kid!"

"See it?"

"That small mountain is the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast you're looking for, and it's even one of the weaker species among Soul Beasts!"

Xuan Zi said to Lu Heqiu with immense pride. Lu Heqiu followed his gaze, and indeed, there was a life aura below. If Xuan Zi hadn't introduced it, no one would have imagined that such a mountain was a Soul Beast.

It lay there, with branches hanging on its body, its back already petrified, as if it hadn't moved for many years.

Yan Shaozhe looked at the Soul Beast and introduced it.

"Azure Blood Dragon Beast."

"It possesses the bloodline of the Dragon race... to be precise, the Bi An lineage."

"It's suitable for a Power Attack type Battle Soul Master, or rather, any Soul Master who can absorb its Soul Ring wouldn't be picky. Its combat power is extremely strong. Just among the Titled Douluo recorded by our Shrek Academy, three have fallen to it."

"Its accurate age should be over 120,000 years. Since it was first recorded, it has barely moved."

"Its Soul Skills are even harder to guess."

Yan Shaozhe revealed the full might of this Soul Beast, attempting to dissuade Xuan Zi and Lu Heqiu. This old and young pair were more stubborn than anyone. If they really attacked this Soul Beast, let alone whether it would attract the hostility of the core area.

Just he and Xuan Zi would be injured.

Xuan Zi was also looking at Lu Heqiu in his arms, waiting for him to shake his head and admit his mistake. Xuan Zi didn't actually want to capture this Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast; he just wanted Lu Heqiu to see how powerful the pressure of a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast was!

But Lu Heqiu in his arms' eyes lit up, and he nodded at the Azure Blood Dragon Beast below, clearly having taken a liking to it.

"You!"

Xuan Zi's anger surged, making him want to throw Lu Heqiu down directly.

He had said all the nice words, yet this little fellow didn't understand at all!

This Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast was not something he could absorb!

Before Xuan Zi could scold him, the Azure Blood Dragon Beast below suddenly opened its eyes. Those eyes, larger than a human's, looked at the few people in the sky, and it actually spoke human language.

"Humans, what do you want to do?!"

Xuan Zi's expression changed. Yan Shaozhe on the side clasped his fists and spoke very politely.

"Azure Blood Dragon Beast King."

"We are merely passing by and will only stay for a moment. Please do not be offended."

The Azure Blood Dragon Beast below shifted its gaze, landing on Xuan Zi, or more accurately, on Lu Heqiu. Its massive eyes fixed intently on Lu Heqiu in the sky.

"Leave that tender, young little one behind."

"You may leave."

Yan Shaozhe's expression instantly turned grim. He had been unsure if Xuan Zi would intervene, hence his initial reluctance to offend the Azure Sea Dragon Beast. But now, it was demanding the little one as a blood sacrifice.

This ignited a furious rage within Yan Shaozhe. If the little one hadn't been present, he would have attacked the Azure Sea Dragon Beast directly!

But unexpectedly.

Xuan Zi's temper was even more explosive than his.

Already seething with anger.

It was one thing for the little one to provoke it, as children's words were innocent. But now, a mere soul beast dared to dictate terms to him, and a soul beast with such diluted Dragon race bloodline at that. He immediately unleashed his Martial Soul, casually tossing Lu Heqiu towards Ma Xiaotao.

"Damn it!"

"A beast dares to negotiate with me!"

Ma Xiaotao swooped in to catch Lu Heqiu, and Yan Shaozhe's voice rang out.

"Xiaotao, take the little one to a safe place!"

The two Super Douluo instantly charged towards the Azure Sea Dragon Beast. Regardless of whether the little one absorbed this soul ring today, a soul bone had certainly been prepared for Lu Heqiu!

The Bright Phoenix and Godly Taotie Bull Martial Souls bloomed in the air. The purple-black soul ring was tinged with red, and dazzling soul skills appeared as the two Super Douluo descended towards the ground.

Ma Xiaotao quickly retreated. It wasn't until the Azure Sea Dragon Beast fully moved that they saw its true form.

Calling it a small mountain would be an understatement.

It was practically a mountain!

Half its body was buried in the earth, blending with the soil and rocks. Several trees grew on its back, shaking loose as it moved, revealing its entire carapace.

It was a colossal Turtle Soul Beast!

Its back was covered in rows of sharp spikes, making it impossible to stand upon.

Its limbs were immense, with the narrowest parts being tens of meters thick. It stood like a colossal pillar, unfazed even by Xuan Zi's soul skills.

Several gazes shot out from the core area, surveying the battle.

Strangely.

No soul beasts in the core area made any move to intervene!

"This old fellow doesn't seem to have very good relations with beasts."

"In the past, when humans hunted Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts, they would always face various obstacles, forced to hunt stealthily and worry about retaliation from the Star Dou Great Forest."

"But this old fellow..."

"Not a single beast is willing to help him?"
