Douluo Jueshi: Who let him join Shrek!

Chapter 719 The Evil Lord Has a Premonition of Impending Doom!
After emerging from the small world, Jiang Ming found himself in his familiar bedroom.

He glanced at the Book of Elves on the bedside table in his bedroom, then waved his hand and put it away.

At the same time, he also saw the stacks of account books on the bed.

He wasn't good at these things; he simply handed over all the gold soul coins he had accumulated over the years to Zhang Lexuan to handle.

Originally, his motivation for making money was to develop Qingshui City, but now that Qingshui City is better than more than 90% of the cities on the continent, he no longer has much desire for money.

After picking up a few of the ledgers and glancing at them briefly, Jiang Ming immediately felt that Sister Le Xuan had worked very hard.

The accounts recorded in these ledgers are so numerous and complicated that they are quite tedious to look at. Sister Lexuan also has to prepare for the divine assessment, which is absolutely mentally taxing.

"Now that you're out, come down."

Just then, Zhang Lexuan's voice rang out from outside.

Jiang Ming walked to the window and looked down, and saw Zhang Lexuan and Wang Qiu'er drinking tea and chatting in the open space outside the house.

He flashed through the room and appeared beside the two women.

"Qiu'er, you're back?"

Jiang Ming looked at Wang Qiu'er with some delight.

To be honest, he was very worried when he went to look for Wang Qiu'er and found that she had entered the Star Dou Great Forest.

If he hadn't known that Wang Qiu'er had experience training in the Star Dou Great Forest, and if he hadn't had any premonition of danger, he would have rushed into the Star Dou Great Forest to find her.

With his current strength, the only one who can stop him in the entire Star Dou Great Forest is Di Tian.

"Ah."

Wang Qiu'er nodded. She wanted to say something, but after seeing Jiang Ming, the words she had been preparing for a year stuck in her throat and she couldn't say them for a long time.

This feeling made Wang Qiu'er feel very uncomfortable.

Left with no other choice, Wang Qiu'er could only look at Zhang Lexuan standing to the side.

Zhang Lexuan reached out and took Wang Qiu'er's hand, saying softly, "Don't rush, take your time."

Some things can't be rushed. When she and Jiang Ming got together, they went through some things before things naturally fell into place.

Compared to her, and even compared to Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen, Wang Qiu'er and Jiang Ming lacked the time that had passed. If you really want to calculate it, Wang Qiu'er had known Jiang Ming for no more than two years, and more than a year of those two years were spent in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Therefore, it's unlikely that Wang Qiu'er will join in right now; she'll need to spend more time together.

Feeling the warmth of Zhang Lexuan's palm, Wang Qiu'er nodded.

She has already made her decision; if she wants to join, it would be better to have Zhang Lexuan guide her in.

"What do you mean 'don't rush'? Qiu'er, what happened to you? Tell your master what's wrong, and I'll help you handle it! Right now, there's basically nothing on the entire Douluo Continent that your master can't handle!"

Jiang Ming picked up the teapot on the tea table, poured himself a cup, and drank it all in one gulp with great gusto.

He wasn't wrong. With his current strength, there's basically nothing on the entire Douluo Continent that he can't handle.

Upon hearing Jiang Ming's words, Zhang Lexuan and Wang Qiu'er exchanged a glance, and a smile appeared on their faces simultaneously.

Although Jiang Ming has only been taking Wang Qiu'er as his disciple for a short time, he is very protective of her and treats her very well. Otherwise, Wang Qiu'er wouldn't have fallen for him in such a short period of time.

"It's nothing, it's just that Qiu'er's cultivation level has already reached level 78. Once she breaks through level 80, she might need you, her master, to help her hunt down a 100,000-year-old soul beast."

Zhang Lexuan said softly.

With a cultivation level of 78, she is only two levels away from 80. At Wang Qiu'er's cultivation speed, she can break through these two levels of soul power in at most half a year.

"Your cultivation level has reached seventy-eight?"

Jiang Ming was somewhat surprised. Compared to his own cultivation speed, Wang Qiu'er's cultivation speed was indeed not very fast, but compared to others of the same age, it was very fast!
Keep in mind that just over a year ago, Wang Qiu'er had only just broken through to level 60!

Now, in less than two years, he's about to break through the level 80 bottleneck. This kind of cultivation speed is truly terrifying.

Wang Qiu'er repeated what she had just said to Zhang Lexuan to Jiang Ming.

The tempering of the Golden Dragon bloodline, the rewards from clearing the Qiankun Asking Love Valley, and a series of opportunities and experiences over the past year—all these factors combined to cause her soul power to increase so rapidly.

"So this is ah."

Jiang Ming had no doubts, because it was indeed reasonable.

Among them, the Golden Dragon Bloodline Tempering and the Qiankun Asking Love Valley were done by him personally with Wang Qiu'er, so he naturally knew how much these two things could improve soul power.

However, it is truly astonishing that Wang Qiu'er can maintain a rate of increasing her soul power by one level almost every month at the level of Soul Emperor and Soul Saint!

Is training in the Star Dou Great Forest really that effective?

"Moreover, it's not just these things, Qiu'er. Release your martial spirit and let your master see it."

Zhang Lexuan looked at Wang Qiu'er and said softly.

Wang Qiu'er nodded, stood up and took two steps back. A dragon's roar sounded, and seven soul rings—two yellow, two purple, two black, and one red—quickly rose from beneath her feet.

"One hundred thousand year soul ring?!"

Jiang Ming was stunned.

This time, you were truly surprised. A seventh spirit ring with a ten-thousand-year lifespan is incredibly rare!
However, this makes Wang Qiu'er's cultivation level more reasonable.

The benefits a 100,000-year spirit ring provides to a spirit master are enormous!

Putting everything else aside, after absorbing this 100,000-year soul ring, Wang Qiu'er's soul power will definitely not increase from level 70 to level 71 like other soul masters who absorb 10,000-year soul rings. It will at least increase to level 72, or even level 73!

Adding a 100,000-year-old soul bone would further enhance the effect!

However, after seeing this 100,000-year-old soul ring, Jiang Ming had the same question as Zhang Lexuan.

"Your 100,000-year soul ring... it couldn't be from a 100,000-year soul beast you killed yourself, could it?"

If Wang Qiu'er killed this 100,000-year-old soul beast herself, that would be amazing!

"How could that be? My elders in my family helped me obtain it."

Wang Qiu'er couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard Jiang Ming's words.

If she were in her soul beast form, with her dual extreme attributes of Imperial Auspicious Beast and Extreme Light and Extreme Fire, she could attempt to kill a 100,000-year-old soul beast on her own.

But in her current human form, with her level 70 soul power, it would be absolutely impossible for her to kill a 100,000-year-old soul beast, even with a Golden Dragon Martial Soul!

"An elder in your family? Someone who could help you kill a 100,000-year-old soul beast must be a Title Douluo, right? When are you going to take me to meet them? You're already my disciple, and I haven't met your family yet." Hearing that the 100,000-year-old soul beast was hunted down for Wang Qiu'er by her elders, Jiang Ming was eager to meet them.

On one hand, Wang Qiu'er had already become his disciple, and her family would definitely know. On the other hand, the ability that made the Book of Spirits tremble and that allowed him to inexplicably sense Wang Qiu'er's power made him suspect that it might be related to Wang Qiu'er's family.

With his current strength, he can actually deduce the underlying reasons for many things through contact and perception.

But he couldn't bring himself to push Wang Qiu'er out.

This is very strange.

"To meet my family?"

When Wang Qiu'er heard Jiang Ming mention this, her expression stiffened. She quickly waved her hand and said, "It's better not to. I've already told them about this, and they are very satisfied and at ease. There's no need to meet."

What a joke! If Jiang Ming were to meet her family...

Putting everything else aside, Jiang Ming will definitely clash with Di Tian!
Whether Jiang Ming defeats Di Tian or Di Tian defeats Jiang Ming, it is not the outcome she wants to see.

"Ok?"

Jiang Ming clearly sensed that Wang Qiu'er was hiding something, but since she didn't want to say, he, as her master, didn't want to force her.

"Alright then, I'll visit your family again when I have the chance."

Jiang Ming nodded, then continued, "Your cultivation level has reached level 78. At your cultivation speed, you should have no problem breaking through the level 80 bottleneck within half a year. Once you break through the level 80 bottleneck, I'll take you to the Star Dou Great Forest to see if there are any suitable 100,000-year-old soul beasts for you."

Wang Qiu'er's seventh spirit ring is already 100,000 years old, so her eighth spirit ring definitely can't be of a lower grade.

Her seventh spirit ring was obtained with the help of her elders, so as her master, he couldn't be lacking in prestige either. A 100,000-year-old spirit beast was no problem.

"Actually, that's not necessary. My martial soul is special, so it's more convenient for me to obtain soul rings near my home."

Wang Qiu'er shook her head.

Hunting 100,000-year-old soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest would weaken the Star Dou Great Forest's strength. Although she was only familiar with ferocious beasts like Di Tian, ​​Bi Ji, Xiong Jun, Wan Yao Wang, Chi Wang, and Zi Ji, and not much else, 100,000-year-old soul beasts were definitely high-level combat power in the Star Dou Great Forest.

As a transformed imperial auspicious beast, although her cultivation level had not reached 100,000 years, she was still able to condense a 100,000-year soul ring on her own with the help of some external forces, without having to hunt 100,000-year soul beasts.

"Where is your place?"

Jiang Ming became even more curious.

Wang Qiu'er's martial soul is a golden dragon!

The soul beasts suitable for this kind of martial soul are basically those with extremely powerful bloodlines, or they are simply dragon soul beasts.

There are practically no places on the entire Douluo Continent where it's relatively easy to obtain this kind of soul beast soul ring!

Surely Wang Qiu'er's family isn't in the core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest, which is home to a large number of high-level bloodline soul beasts, including a Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King.

"Alright, since Qiu'er doesn't want to talk about it, you, her master, shouldn't pry."

Zhang Lexuan promptly interrupted Jiang Ming's further questioning, as she could tell that Wang Qiu'er did not want to reveal her family background.

This is not surprising, because for a reclusive family, the fewer people who know about it, the better, as this ensures the family's safety.

Hearing Zhang Lexuan speak up for her, Wang Qiu'er breathed a sigh of relief.

If Jiang Ming continued to ask, she might give herself away.

Although she had made some preparations, now was clearly not the best time to reveal her identity.

"Alright, then I won't ask anymore. When you break through level 80, just tell your master if you need anything."

Jiang Ming is now somewhat relaxed.

At the current pace, he only has a few things to worry about.

The progress of the Sun Moon Empire's war, the content of his own divine assessment, the divine assessment results of the three women, the defensive soul-guided array project he was working on, and the destruction of the Holy Spirit Cult.

The rest are not really a big problem.

The development of Qingshui City is already sufficient. Even if the Sun Moon Empire launches a war, the main battlefield will not be in the far north. And as long as it is not the main battlefield, with the current defensive strength of Qingshui City, it would be useless to attack Qingshui City with a Soul Master Corps.

As for the academy, Elder Mu, who was supposed to be nearing the end of his life, was forcibly brought back to life by him. After a period of time, once Elder Mu recovers to his peak cultivation, Elder Xuan will be encouraged to work harder to break through to the Limit Douluo level, and the other elders will be urged to increase their soul power by a few levels.

Even if those few become gods and go to the God Realm, the academy will remain very stable.

The following period was peaceful. The Sun Moon Empire was repeatedly harassed, so its war mobilization was completely halted. It planned to first eliminate all the unstable factors within the country and then accumulate war preparation resources for a period of time.

This process will take at least three to five years.

The three great empires finally got a precious respite, but no one dared to let their guard down. They continued to do their best to research and equip soul tools in preparation for future wars.

The cooperation between the Body Sect and Shrek Academy has become increasingly close, which has even indirectly promoted further cooperation between sects such as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and Shrek Academy.

However, neither the Haotian Sect nor the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect made any moves; they either went into complete seclusion or had other plans.

The mainland was unusually peaceful, but Jiang Ming was having a hard time.

Given his current situation, the difficulty of breaking through will only increase with normal cultivation. Although he is confident that he will not encounter any major bottlenecks before level 99, his personality makes him unaccustomed to cultivating in this way.

On the shore of Poseidon Lake, Jiang Ming frowned and stopped cultivating.

He felt his body was getting rusty from all the meditation and cultivation.

He wanted to find someone to fight, or rather, to hone his skills by sparring with a strong opponent.

But he is now the strongest in the academy. Elder Mu has only recovered to level 97 soul power, Elder Xuan has not yet broken through to level 99, not to mention the other elders.

"How about we go and have some fun with the Evil Lord beforehand?"

There are only a handful of people on the entire continent who can spar with him.

Evil Lord, Emperor Tian.

He wasn't very confident about Di Tian, ​​and he always felt that there was an even more mysterious being in the Star Dou Great Forest than Di Tian.

In comparison, sparring with an evil lord is safer.

Moreover, his seventh test is to kill the Evil Lord. If he practices with him more, he can kill him faster when the time comes.

Without hesitation, Jiang Ming greeted Zhang Lexuan and then flew alone towards the Demon Forest of the Sun Moon Empire.

In the Sun and Moon Empire, in the Demon Forest, the massive body of the Evil Lord, who was trying to replenish his lost spiritual power, suddenly trembled.

He had a premonition that something terrible was about to happen!
