Fishing for a "Title" Big Fish-I'm Here to Take Her Back

Although he did not know the names of these immortal herbs and spiritual plants, he possessed the spiritual perception of a 200,000-Year Ferocious Beast.

He could vaguely sense which immortal plants suited him.

For example, there was one immortal plant brimming with life energy. If he devoured it, his life essence would definitely improve tremendously.

Once his life essence improved, it would not merely mean greater vitality—it would also mean he could take more punishment, while his Blue Silver Grass became tougher and sharper.

All of this would help him overcome the Heavenly Tribulation.

He also remembered that Ten Thousand Demon King, one of the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts, had originally been an ordinary plant-type Soul Beast. Though "ordinary" was hardly a fitting word when compared to Blue Silver Grass.

Yet by absorbing an immortal plant suited to him, Ten Thousand Demon King had become the king of all plant-type Soul Beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest and had even survived the 500,000-Year Heavenly Tribulation.

His bloodline might have started out a little lower, but would it really be too much to ask for him to survive the 200,000-Year Heavenly Tribulation with the help of immortal plants suited to him?

What was more, he had devoured far more than one immortal plant!

And within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, he remained for an entire month.

During that month, aside from the Infernal Delicate Apricot and Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, he also devoured two other immortal plants: the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, which enhanced spiritual power, and an unidentified immortal herb overflowing with life energy.

Do not assume that the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew was useless just because it increased spiritual power. Powerful spiritual power would allow him to control and combine his Blue Silver Grass vines far more freely in battle.

That would let him form all kinds of unpredictable Self-Created Soul Skills as he pleased, even without Soul Rings or fixed Soul Skills.

That was right.

During that month,

aside from devouring immortal herbs, he had also pondered how to develop Soul Skills useful to him.

Now that everything was ready, he was preparing to leave.

It was a pity that he could not absorb external energy through meditation, so the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well's tenfold cultivation speed was useless to him.

Of course, that was not truly a pity. After all, he had a cheat!

Through the Demon Contract, he could continuously sacrifice lifespan to raise his level. The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well's tenfold growth speed was no different from having nothing at all.

Boom!

Lan Lingcang shot up from the ground and flew straight out through the exit of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

After leaving the valley, Lan Lingcang stopped in midair, his gaze sharpening as he controlled the tens of thousands of Blue Silver Grass plants surrounding the valley to grow wildly.

Countless thick blue-gold vines intertwined and coiled around one another like horned dragons, weaving an enormous net through the air.

In only a few moments, he used those indestructible vines to form a sealed defensive barrier above the valley.

He thoroughly sealed off this "volcanic exit" that concealed countless precious treasures.

This treasure vault now belonged to Lan. No one would be allowed to touch it!

Unless one was a Title Douluo-level expert, no one could possibly break through his Blue Silver Grass.

Moreover, those vines bore his spiritual imprint. The moment they came under attack, he would immediately sense it.

As for now, it was time for him to find Ah Yin.

He had also not forgotten that one of the three Hextech augments he had chosen this time was [Golden Egg].

Normally, Golden Egg required eleven years to hatch.

Eleven years was far too long. He could not wait that long.

However, killing a Title Douluo or a Soul Beast over a hundred thousand years old would reduce the time by one year.

And according to his perception, while Tang Hao and the other two encountered Ah Yin and trained together, Spirit Hall experts had already been lurking in the shadows.

Therefore, Spirit Hall had long since discovered Ah Yin's true identity.

They had merely chosen to remain still.

After all, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao were both direct descendants of the Clear Sky Sect. Spirit Hall could not possibly ignore them when they went out to train.

And once they paid attention, trouble followed.

That was also why Lan Lingcang wanted to find Ah Yin.

Not only because she was one of his people, and because the original story had given him a favorable impression of her—she was beautiful, after all.

It was also because he could use this opportunity to fish.

He would lure out Spirit Hall's Title Douluo, perhaps even the Clear Sky Sect's Title Douluo as well.

Would that not give him all the "materials" he needed to shorten Golden Egg's hatching time?

He did not particularly want to hunt Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts. Though they were not of the same race, they were still Soul Beasts.

Unless they provoked him first and intended to kill him.

His previous life had been as a human, after all, so he still held some feelings toward humanity and would not slaughter innocents indiscriminately.

But!

If those human Soul Masters came to them of their own accord, seeking to hunt Soul Beasts for Soul Rings and Soul Bones,

then that was an entirely different matter!

When dealing with Soul Masters who came looking to harm Soul Beasts, Lan Lingcang would absolutely show no mercy.

Those who kill shall be killed!

Turning all those Title Douluo into nourishment for Golden Egg would be perfect.

At that thought, a smile curled across Lan Lingcang's lips.

He chose the direction he had sensed, pushed his flying ability to its limit, and shot into the distance at incredible speed.

Elsewhere.

Tang Hao, Tang Xiao, and Ah Yin were traveling through the Balak Kingdom in the southern region of Douluo Continent.

Though the Balak Kingdom was not particularly large, its unique location made its Soul Master world quite active, making it an excellent place to train.

At that moment, the three were walking along a somewhat remote official road.

Ah Yin walked with her eyes lowered, seeming distracted all this time.

Ever since she had suddenly sensed her Blue Silver Emperor authority being inexplicably taken from her more than a month ago, she had been filled with curiosity and worry every day.

For more than a month, only one thought had occupied her mind: she had to return to the Ancestral Land in the Star Dou Great Forest!

Thus, under her deliberate guidance throughout their journey,

the border of the Balak Kingdom where the three of them now were was no longer very far from the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest.

If they traveled at full speed, they would likely reach the forest's edge in no more than two days.

Tang Hao and Tang Xiao, walking ahead, were enthusiastically discussing what good liquor the town ahead might have.

Then, at that very moment!

Without any warning, a tall, slender figure appeared out of thin air directly on the path Tang Hao and the other two had to take.

The newcomer was none other than Lan Lingcang!

With his hands behind his back, he floated naturally in the air, about three feet above the ground.

His long blue-gold hair, like drifting clouds, fluttered freely in the breeze.

A calm, faintly visible smile rested on his fair and handsome face.

He wore a blue-gold robe condensed from Soul Power, and an invisible pressure belonging to one in authority faintly radiated from his body.

Tang Hao and Tang Xiao immediately became wary as they watched the mysterious young man who had suddenly appeared before them.

Both of them were now Soul Douluo experts, and Tang Xiao was even a high-level Soul Douluo, yet neither could see through the young man before them.

This man had come with ill intent!

"Who exactly are you, sir?"

Tang Xiao stepped forward and shielded Ah Yin behind him, his expression grave as he demanded.

"Why have you suddenly appeared here to block our path?"

As the question rang out, Clear Sky Hammers had already appeared in their hands.

"Me?"

Lan Lingcang gave a soft laugh. "I'm here to take Ah Yin back."
