Serpent Spear Douluo didn't say anything more, his figure disappeared directly, and he prepared to do what Xue Qinghe had asked him to do.
Lu Yuan opened his eyes as he ended his meditation.
After having a quick bite to eat, they headed straight out of Tiandou City.
As the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, Heaven Dou City is a symbol of national dignity. No one except Title Douluo is allowed to fly here; to be discovered is to provoke the Heaven Dou Empire.
Even if most of the titled Douluo come to Heaven Dou City, they generally will not choose to fly unless a conflict breaks out. Although the Heaven Dou Empire does not have a single titled Douluo on the surface, a million-strong army is no joke.
After leaving Tiandou City, he breathed a sigh of relief upon realizing that no one was stopping him. It seemed that Xue Qinghe hadn't had anyone directly monitoring him.
That makes sense. After all, given Xue Qinghe's pride, even if he wanted to win me over, he wouldn't resort to surveillance or coercion.
After all, her talent is the most terrifying in this era: a divinely bestowed martial soul and innate level 20 soul power.
In the boundless sky.
Lu Yuan transformed into a golden ray of light and flew rapidly forward.
Sunset Forest is not too far from Tiandou City. With Lu Yuan's flying speed, he arrived at the edge of the forest in less than half an hour.
Although Sunset Forest is also known as one of the three major gathering places of soul beasts in Douluo Continent, it is incomparable to Star Dou Great Forest.
Not only in terms of area, but even in terms of the number of soul beasts, there is a huge difference.
However, entering the forest still gave Lu Yuan a sense of shock that he had never experienced before. Although Lu Yuan had been to the Soul Hunting Forest when he obtained his first soul ring, the impact was completely incomparable.
The sky was gloomy, weeds and vegetation grew rampant, and the air was filled with the smells of decay and dampness.
"Thankfully, I specifically looked up some information about Sunset Forest in the Notting College Library before coming here, otherwise I might have really gotten lost in this forest."
Lu Yuan looked around, his gaze somewhat wary.
He came alone this time, and although he was confident that he could escape unscathed even from a five-thousand-year-old soul beast if he used all his strength, he still had to be careful.
After all, in this dangerous forest, there are quite a few Soul Masters who, overconfident in their strength, have lost their lives due to carelessness.
Suddenly, Lu Yuan's gaze sharpened, he snorted coldly, and casually flicked out a golden lightning bolt!
The lightning streaked across the sky and struck the bushes not far from him!
The crackling electricity illuminated a distance of three or four meters, and a burnt aroma wafted from the bushes.
"The dead leaf vine snake is highly venomous and is known as the 'three-step killer'!"
Looking at the charred snake that had been killed by a bolt of electricity and even had a white spirit ring appearing on its body, Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel secretly fortunate.
Thankfully I was careful, otherwise getting bitten would have been a real hassle.
This time, his target was a soul beast called the Thunder Devouring Bull, which was known for its strength. Not only was its control over lightning extremely powerful, but it also had considerable speed.
Because of its formidable strength and massive size, it is undoubtedly a dominant force in the outer perimeter.
Considering the size of Sunset Forest, Lu Yuan had even prepared himself to spend the next week in the forest.
Whether it was luck or fate, only half a day had passed.
One appeared right in front of him.
Chapter 16 Hunting the Thunder-Devouring Bull! Lightning Battle Qi
Lu Yuan secretly observed the creature in front of him, which was three meters tall and over five meters long. Its entire body was covered with hard purple scales, and its black horns were over half a meter long. Within the horns, streaks of lightning were forged together, containing considerable destructive power.
"So this is the Thunder Devouring Bull? It certainly looks extraordinary."
"If I make it my second spirit ring, I'm sure I'll get a pretty good spirit skill."
Lu Yuan's eyes flickered, and a smile appeared on his lips.
This soul beast is as if it were specially prepared for me by the heavens.
Even the time limit was quite suitable for him. More than a year of meditation made Lu Yuan's physical strength even surpass that of most Soul Venerables.
He can absorb any soul ring that is no more than two thousand years old.
The Thunder Devouring Bull in front of us is of exceptionally good age.
The bull's horns are over 60 centimeters long, indicating that this spirit beast is between 1,600 and 1,800 years old.
Given his physical strength, this soul beast was within a safe and stress-free range.
In that case, let the hunt begin!
A cold light flashed in Lu Yuan's eyes, and his martial spirit instantly possessed him, his entire body enveloped in golden lightning.
He stomped his foot, and instantly a circle of lightning enveloped an area within a hundred meters.
This is his Thor's Domain. Under the influence of this domain, all enemies will have their overall attributes reduced by 30%.
Moreover, as the area expands, the enemies enveloped will become paralyzed.
Numerous bolts of lightning continuously erupted from the ground, striking the Thunder-Devouring Bull's limbs.
He himself soared into the sky, and endless lightning gathered in his hands.
Thick bolts of lightning were thrown from Lu Yuan's hand and continuously struck the Thunder Devouring Bull.
Lu Yuan's attack was extremely swift and stealthy. The first wave of attacks appeared directly in front of the Thunder Devouring Bull before it could even react.
Wherever the lightning passed, the air hummed and crackled, each sound a testament to the power of Lu Yuan's attack.
Seeing the attack already appearing on its face, the Thunder Devouring Bull roared and tried to retaliate.
But the lightning, imbued with the might of heaven, exploded on his face, instantly generating immense power.
Blood and flesh flew everywhere, and a constant aroma of caramel wafted out.
Taking advantage of the fact that his attack had left the Thunder Devouring Bull dazed and confused, Lu Yuan pressed his advantage.
Now in the air, his hands once again condensed a large amount of lightning.
Lightning transformed into a bridge connecting heaven and earth, beginning to stir up the true might of the heavens!
"First Soul Skill: Lightning and Thunder!"
Thick black clouds gathered above Lu Yuan's head, constantly churning purple lightning.
These lightning bolts were incredibly violent, seemingly about to strike at any moment and annihilate all the enemies in front of them.
But Lu Yuan, standing below, wore an excited smile.
More, more!
As Lu Yuan continued to condense thunderstorms, the Thunder Devouring Bull finally reacted completely.
Although half of its body was blown to pieces, this seemed to have completely unleashed its ferocity.
Seeing that Lu Yuan was flying in the air and it could not tear him apart with its strong body, it immediately changed its attack method.
The black horns suddenly released a large amount of lightning, containing boundless destructive power.
The lightning swiftly swept towards Lu Yuan, but Lu Yuan simply ignored it.
A contemptuous smile played on his lips as he lightly flicked his raised hand away!
"Disappear with a thunderous roar!"
boom!
A thunderstorm, flashing with blinding light, fell from the sky, instantly illuminating the dark forest.
As the blazing and violent lightning struck, it was as if a high and mighty god had unleashed his divine punishment!
Everything in its path will be utterly destroyed, not even the Thunder-Devouring Bull, which possesses and controls lightning.
As the smoke cleared, the thunder had thoroughly cleansed the earth, leaving it bare and devoid of any life.
On the bare ground, a purple spirit ring floated silently.
The massive body of the Thunder Devouring Bull had completely vanished.
"The might of the heavens is indeed beyond human power to resist. Even a soul beast with an extremely terrifying physical strength, such as the Thunder Devouring Bull, was completely annihilated by this attack."
It's a pity that no soul bone dropped. Although I wouldn't absorb a thousand-year soul bone even if it dropped, those bull horns were still pretty good.
Lu Yuan shook his head in disappointment, then looked around and, finding no danger, finally felt completely relieved and landed on the ground.
Sitting cross-legged within the spirit ring, Lu Yuan immediately entered meditation and began absorbing the spirit ring.
As the purple soul ring was absorbed into Lu Yuan's body, the immense soul power immediately began to flow continuously within him.
If there were outsiders present, they would surely be terrified by Lu Yuan's behavior at this moment.
It should be noted that the highest age of a second spirit ring in the past was only over seven hundred years, but Lu Yuan is now absorbing a spirit ring that is nearly two thousand years old.
If it were an ordinary person, their body would surely be swollen and their blood vessels would burst by now, but Lu Yuan was so calm at this moment.
Without even the slightest tremor, the raging soul power within that thousand-year soul ring was absorbed and refined by Lu Yuan as calmly as a stream.
…………
However, after twenty or thirty minutes.
Lu Yuan had already woken up from absorbing the soul ring. Feeling his soul power increase by at least twice, a smile appeared on his face.
"Success!"
"As expected of the Thunder Devouring Bull, my second soul skill is actually lightning battle aura!"
Feeling the joy of his newly acquired soul skill, Lu Yuan couldn't help but reveal his delight.
The lightning battle aura he obtained not only enhanced his lightning attribute but also doubled his defense.
And it can be used again immediately after use.
"Second Soul Skill: Lightning Battle Aura!"
Suddenly, bursts of golden lightning erupted from Lu Yuan's body, and the golden lightning became even sharper in the next moment.
Lu Yuan's body had also become somewhat more muscular.
"The lightning attribute has been enhanced by at least 100%, and it is even approaching its maximum value."
"My physical fitness has also improved a lot, and my speed seems to have increased as a result."
As Lu Yuan felt the changes after using his lightning battle aura, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Next, let's see how many times I can withstand this lightning battle aura.
Lu Yuan made up his mind and then began his experiment.
Lu Yuan was extremely strict in his control over soul skills.
After all, if you don't control it well in battle, it could be life-threatening.
In the forest, golden lightning flashed continuously.
He used his newly acquired lightning battle aura again and again, praying to reach his limit.
…………
Chapter 17 Admission to Tiandou Royal Academy
The golden lightning gradually dissipated, and Lu Yuan wiped the sweat from his forehead caused by the depletion of his soul power.
With his current physical strength, he can withstand the enhancement of lightning battle qi four times in a row at most. Any more than that could cause irreversible damage to his body.
Furthermore, after using the Lightning Battle Aura several times in succession, Lu Yuan could feel that his lightning attribute was about to change to an even more extreme level. That power, that crushing of ordinary attributes, made him very certain that this was the ultimate attribute he had always longed for.
Looking into the depths of the Sunset Forest, Lu Yuan fell into deep thought. It would be several years before Tang San went to Shrek Academy, and even longer before he came to Heaven Dou City. There was no need for him to be too hasty in planning to obtain immortal herbs.
Lu Yuan now faces two paths: first, he can go directly to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and charge straight in.
He picked all the medicinal herbs he knew. This was the fastest route, but it was also very dangerous. He might even be killed by Dugu Bo the moment he rushed in.
The second option is to enroll in the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy, make contact with Dugu Yan, and eventually contact Dugu Bo through Dugu Yan, thus obtaining the immortal herb.
This is the helplessness of not having a powerful backer. If you came from a powerful family, you could just lead your men to rob it.
However, Lu Yuan was not the kind of person to wallow in self-pity. Although being born into a powerful family would be of great benefit to future development, it might also cause him to miss out on his greatest opportunity.
The Lei Yi Martial Soul is incomparable to any other Martial Soul on the Douluo Continent. In fact, his Lei Yi Martial Soul even has the ability to evolve. Such potential is beyond what any high-level, top-level, or super Martial Soul can match.
Even if Lu Yuan were given a divinely bestowed martial soul, whether he would be willing to exchange it or not is another matter.
