The outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest.
"Honestly, you've had your fun these past two days. Stopping and starting, it took us two days to get here."
Liu Erlong turned her head, looking at Tang Yuehua, and complained to Jiang Ce.
Jiang Ce hadn't taken the proper path these past two days, instead toying with Tang Yuehua's clone, constantly teasing and training her main body.
"What did you say, Big Nai Long?"
Jiang Ce let out a sinister laugh and unleashed Phantom Dragon Impact.
Liu Erlong's body trembled like a sieve.
"Stop it, you haven't had enough yet?"
"Of course not, my Anti-Magic Ninja Captain."
"You're truly hopeless."
Liu Erlong clutched her abdomen and glared fiercely at her own chest.
"Alright, let's each find our prey. Yuehua, it's time for you to start fighting too."
"Yes, Teacher."
Tang Yuehua's spirit was high—
If one ignored her occasional fidgeting with her legs.
Tang Yuehua's first opponent was a four-thousand-year-old Iron-Armored Savage Bull.
Jiang Ce suppressed the age to a thousand years, without any amplification, so she could experience combat from the very basics.
After all, Tang Yuehua had no combat experience at all, even less than Ye Yingling.
As soon as she steadied herself, the Vibration Egg on her White Tiger Dagger vibrated violently, and her legs nearly gave out on the spot.
The Iron-Armored Savage Bull took advantage of her distraction and lowered its head to charge. Its horns grazed her waist, tearing a slit in the Black Latex Suit, which healed in the next second.
"Don't stop. Anti-Magic Ninjas have to keep fighting even if they're pierced on the battlefield."
Tang Yuehua gritted her teeth and swallowed her cry of pain. She compressed Venom into two threads as thin as silk and shot them out simultaneously, wrapping around the bull's front hooves and yanking hard.
The bull beast stumbled to the ground. She steadied her breathing amidst the vibrations, clenched her right hand, and the silk threads severed the beast's throat.
She won.
Her legs were still trembling, but she had indeed won.
A flicker of joy flashed in Tang Yuehua's eyes—she had finally experienced a real battle.
"Give the weapon a name?"
Jiang Ce emerged from her chest, transforming into tentacles.
Those threads were harder than Cold Heart Iron Essence, possessing both binding and cutting properties.
"Let's call them Moon God Silk."
"A good name, elegant. This thing is tiny, almost invisible, sharp as a knife, capable of strangling, controlling, defending, binding, and setting traps."
"Use my camouflage ability to make it blend with the environment, undetectable even by a Super Douluo. Practice until you can control ten threads; that should be enough for you for now."
"This thing requires strong control to be used perfectly, otherwise, it will harm yourself and others."
"Thank you for your guidance, Teacher."
She raised her hand and looked at the threads connected to her fingers. After applying camouflage, the threads blended seamlessly with the environment, invisible to the naked eye.
This was undoubtedly the best killing move.
Over the next few days, she controlled ten Moon God Silk threads simultaneously, spreading her Noble Sanctuary to suppress killing intent and battle intent, while the ends of the Moon God Silk cut.
She used the impact of the Vibration Egg to train her mental stability under extreme stimulation.
There were several times she almost collapsed, but her fingertips remained steady as the threads severed the soul beasts' throats.
On the third day, using the power of a thousand-year-level, she hunted four eight-thousand-year-level soul beasts.
Under the suppression of the Sanctuary, the soul beasts lost their will to fight, and before they could even pinpoint her location, they were shredded by the invisible threads.
After confirming she had mastered their use, Jiang Ce gradually lifted the restrictions, allowing her to mobilize more power.
After all, the issue with her martial soul hadn't been resolved yet, so for now, she could only borrow the abilities of the Symbiote.
In the center of a clearing in the forest, Tang Yuehua unfurled her Noble Ring Domain, dispelling the opponent's killing intent and defenses.
Her fingers spread slightly, and the Moon God Silk shot out silently. Ten transparent threads wove a net in the air, sealing off all escape routes for the ten-thousand-year soul beast.
She gently tightened her right hand, and the threads simultaneously constricted, binding the soul beast's limbs and freezing it in place.
Then, she manipulated that soul beast like a puppet to fight another soul beast.
The two soul beasts fought back and forth, and in the end, one was bitten to death.
Tang Yuehua stood on a towering tree in the distance, watching it all.
"Control."
She softly recited the ability that her teacher had pointed out, and which she had finally figured out on her own—
Using Moon God Silk to control enemies in battle.
Her right hand clenched into a fist, and ten threads exerted force simultaneously. The controlled soul beast was sliced into dozens of pieces, the cuts as smooth as a mirror.
"This hair-based combat is good, it suits your temperament. You can expand it later to weave traps and ensnare a group of people."
"Yes, teacher."
Tang Yuehua retracted her threads, a hint of eagerness flashing in her pupils.
In the clearing on the other side, Ye Yingling was having a blast.
She conjured a staff, appearing to be a gentle support soul master casting healing spells from afar.
A leopard-like soul beast lunged from the side, aiming to flank the backline. Ye Yingling didn't even turn her head, swinging her staff backward.
The soul beast was struck on the head with the staff, sent flying to crash into several trees, and killed instantly.
She chased after the remaining soul beasts, her staff launching a barrage of ice, fire, lightning, wind, and rock attacks from a distance.
Her right hand swung the staff, knocking away a sneak-attacking soul beast.
She had played enough as a battle soul master a while ago.
Jiang Ce had told her to switch professions.
She had directly become a mobile artillery platform, bombarding everything.
Her soul power consumption was entirely reliant on the Heart of the Earth.
Standing on the ground, she recovered two percent per second, plus the boost from her support soul skills, so she never lacked mana.
When someone tried to flank the backline, they would find this artillery mage swinging her staff like a mace, smashing them away.
It was incredibly fun.
Deep in the dense forest, Liu Erlong's combat was a completely different style.
Venom formed gauntlets on her arms, and her palms transformed into five Dark Gold Terrorclaws.
A fifty-thousand-year Red Armor Earth Dragon had just rushed out of its nest. She pinned its head with one claw and smashed it into the ground, sending dirt and rocks flying.
The earth dragon swept its tail. Liu Erlong dodged sideways, then punched into its side. The dragon claw blades pierced through its scales, sinking in up to the hilt.
She lifted the entire earth dragon, smashing it against the rock wall like a sandbag, then pulling it back and smashing it again.
Fragments of the earth dragon's scales scattered. Its struggles weakened from violent to faint, and finally, its limbs twitched as it collapsed on the ground.
Liu Erlong stepped on the earth dragon's head, pulling her dragon claw blades out from between the scales, drawing a string of viscous blood.
"Didn't even have a chance to fight back, too weak."
She dragged the corpse into the nest and searched it thoroughly, finding two or three soul bones, a small pile of gold coins, and some ores and herbs. Her expression darkened as she searched.
"This guy is too stingy? The gold coins are less than the tip of my pinky from last time. If converted to the same age, this guy is way poorer than a Red Flame Earth Dragon."
"Maybe this one was more thrifty."
"Thrifty my ass, it's just lazy. Otherwise, it's lived so long, if it had just collected some things, I would be rich."
Liu Erlong had now become a little money grubber.
After killing a soul beast, she absolutely had to find its lair and ransack it.
This time, the harvest was unsatisfactory.
She put the soul bones into her Storage Soul Tool and kicked away the碎石 at her feet.
After searching for several days consecutively, Jiang Ce had increased his age to seventy thousand years by devouring soul beasts.
Liu Erlong had also successfully advanced to rank sixty.
"I still haven't found that Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear you mentioned."
"Then keep looking. Maybe you can really create a conceptual skill."
Liu Erlong nodded.
Dragon Beast Nemesis—as long as the opponent is a dragon, they are suppressed.
The soul beasts on the Douluo Continent all spread the aura of the Silver Dragon King, evolving from ordinary animals into soul beasts, and more or less carrying dragon energy.
In the future, almost all soul beasts would be suppressed by this skill.
Jiang Ce even said that this conceptual ability.
Would definitely come with an unreasonable component.
I see you as a dragon, so you are a dragon!
If you are a dragon, you should be killed by me!
Thus, Everyone would be seen as a dragon by her.
And would be suppressed by her.
Suddenly, A thunderous roar erupted from the depths of the dense forest.
It was the bellow of a bear, the sound waves causing the surrounding leaves to rustle and fall.
A sharp glint flashed in Liu Erlong's eyes, and she transformed into a streak of golden lightning, darting toward the source of the sound.

[Well, Jiang Ce's Anti-Magic Ninja lewdness is for his eyes only; he won't be giving others a show. When people are around, the Black Latex Suit is a few layers thicker, but when he's alone? Heh heh.]
