I'm picking up fragments in Douluo Continent

Chapter 257 The Eighth Ring

"Lu Feng, what are your plans next?" Dugu Bo asked puzzledly.

A series of events occurred, and Dugu Bo began to doubt Lu Feng. He had a hunch that there must be something shady going on between Lu Feng and the Spirit Hall.

However, he had no interest in pursuing these matters.

As long as it doesn't involve his granddaughter, Dugu Bo doesn't care at all even if Lu Feng sells out the Tiandou royal family.

Lu Feng took out a map from the soul guide. He couldn't tell what the map was made of, but it felt like it was quite old.

"Next, I plan to obtain the eighth spirit ring. Old man, I need your help."

"The eighth soul ring?"

Dugu Bo's eyes widened when he heard this, "Boy, you have already reached level 80!"

Lu Feng nodded, "My seventh soul ring is a divine soul ring, which exceeds the limit of 100,000 years and greatly improves my soul power."

He changed the subject and said, "Of course, my achievements today are mainly due to my hard work."

Although it was a joke, Dugu Bo did not refute him. Instead, he nodded in agreement.

Be it hard work or luck.

Sometimes, luck itself is a kind of strength.

Even for soul masters who have cultivated to the level of Titled Douluo, who is not a person with great fortune?

"If I remember correctly, you...you are only twenty years old this year?" Dugu Bo tried hard to calm himself, but his slightly trembling tone showed that his heart was far from as calm as he appeared.

"Yeah." Lu Feng nodded slightly, "I have been walking on thin ice all my life, and now I finally..."

"Okay kid, there's no need to talk nonsense between us."

Dugu Bo interrupted Lu Feng and said with a smile: "You are still walking on thin ice? Then other soul masters will be so ashamed that they will bury themselves alive, right?"

"Hehe." Lu Feng smiled and said seriously: "Old man, I have my eyes on a soul beast, but it is a bit difficult to deal with. I have to trouble you with my eighth soul ring."

Dugu Bo patted his chest and said, "As long as it's not a 100,000-year soul beast, I'm pretty sure I can get the other soul beasts."

"Oh?" Lu Feng's eyes rolled. "That's really unfortunate. The one I'm eyeing is a hundred thousand year old soul beast. How about forgetting it? I'll go back and think of a solution."

"Hmph, kid, you don't need to provoke me. Since it's a hundred thousand year old soul beast, let's go get some information first. No matter what, I'm also a Titled Douluo, so I should have no problem protecting you."

"Senior is so righteous, I admire you!"

Outside the Blue Silver Forest, on a hillside.

Lu Feng looked down and saw some sparsely grown plants in the valley ahead, which looked a bit desolate.

"Hey, is this the place?" Lu Feng looked at the map carefully and looked towards the valley again.

He found this map among Tang Hao's relics, and it recorded the location of the Blue Silver Forest.

According to the records in "Xuantian Baolu", after the five elements and four symbols, yin and yang are born.

For his last two soul rings, Lu Feng planned to hunt evil or sacred soul beasts, or soul beasts with the attributes of life or death.

Through the opposition of attributes, we can understand the changes of yin and yang, and then comprehend the great way.

However, soul beasts with the first group of attributes are somewhat rare on Douluo Continent, so Lu Feng can only use them as a backup.

As for soul beasts with life attributes, Lu Feng just happened to know one, the Blue Silver King.

No, after absorbing Tang San's blood, it might have been upgraded to Blue Silver Emperor.

The two soon arrived at the valley. Dugu Bo looked around with doubts in his eyes, "Boy, is this the valley you are talking about?"

"Yes, if the map is correct, this should be a blue silver grass forest."

Dugu Bo touched his chin and said, "Could there be some kind of concealment formation? I read in ancient books that some ancient soul beasts can perform some innate soul skills such as sleight of hand."

"Yes." Lu Feng clapped his palms and suddenly realized.

Immediately, a layer of light blue energy rose under his feet.

This is after his "Xuan Tian Bao Lu" was upgraded, using the Four Symbols Martial Soul as the core of the formation to arrange a layer of barrier, the Four Symbols Formation.

Once this barrier is formed, it will become a domain in itself.

Outside the time and space of Douluo Continent, an independent small world was opened up.

Seeing Lu Feng's "soul skill" again, Dugu Bo's eyes twitched.

Lu Feng used this move to force out his soul bone skills. If he hadn't acted decisively, he might have been trapped and killed in this move.

As the Four Symbols Formation expanded, ripples gradually appeared in the air.

The space was squeezed by two different formations, and gradually, a layer of grass appeared. Lu Feng looked along the place where the grass spread, and saw an endless expanse of blue silver grass in front of him, with thick branches intertwined together, looking like a forest.

"Let's go!" Lu Feng's eyes flashed and he stepped directly into the forest.

Dugu Bo followed closely behind, looking around vigilantly.

Walking on the path, Lu Feng seemed to be able to feel the emotions of the blue silver grass around him. They seemed to be cheering and welcoming him.

"Guests from afar, please come here."

Suddenly, an old voice sounded in Lu Feng's heart.

Lu Feng and Dugu Bo looked at each other, and it was obvious that the other party also heard the voice.

The two walked along the path for more than ten minutes and came to a vine in the center of the forest.

The vines were intertwined, looking like a large tree, big enough for five or six people to hug. In the middle of the vines, where they were condensed, there was a mark that looked like a human face.

At this moment, its expression seemed to be smiling.

"Dear guests from afar, welcome to the Blue Silver Forest."

The human face in the center of the vines moved, revealing a very human expression, and its big mouth opened, actually uttering human words.

Dugu Bo was greatly surprised. You know, it is very difficult for plant-type soul beasts to practice.

The soul beast in front of him had obviously reached the level of one hundred thousand years of cultivation.

"Guest, what brings you to the Blue Silver Forest?" Vine asked with a smile.

"Uh" Lu Feng was suddenly speechless.

"Little brother, you are so polite. I feel a bit embarrassed. Should I just say I am here to kill you?" Lu Feng thought to himself.

He collected his thoughts instantly, and a faint smile appeared on his face. "Hello, Senior Blue Silver Emperor. I heard that the Blue Silver Clan has a special ability to gather energy to help soul masters condense soul rings without damaging the Blue Silver Grass?"

Dugu Bo was shocked when he heard this.

With such a magical ability, doesn’t that mean soul masters won’t have to worry about soul rings in the future?

The vine turned into a smiling face and said, "Yes, who needs a spirit ring?"

"Hmm? Is it so smooth?" Lu Feng wondered in his heart.

The vine spoke again, "According to my perception, the spirit ring you need is between 60,000 and 100,000 years old. The energy required for this period of time is just a drop in the bucket for us."

Lu Feng touched his chin and asked in surprise: "So amazing?"

"Yes." The Blue Silver King smiled, "I sense a breath of light in you, so you are the best friend of our clan. It is right to sacrifice a little for a friend."

Lu Feng nodded, summoned the [Tiger Finger Martial Spirit], sat down cross-legged, and held his breath to concentrate.

At this time, Dugu Bo patted him on the shoulder and said, "Wait a moment, kid. Why do I feel like things are going too smoothly?"

Lu Feng whispered, "It's okay, old man, aren't you a Titled Douluo? Just protect me later."

Dugu Bo nodded, then stared at the vines vigilantly.

Gradually, a blue energy rose and slowly gathered into Lu Feng's body.

This energy gushed out from every plant of blue silver grass and gathered together like a blue ocean.

Dugu Bo looked at everything in front of him in shock, and then a word inexplicably appeared in his mind: sacrifice.

However, after ordinary soul beasts are sacrificed, they will perish. But now, each blue silver grass only consumes a little energy, so it should not have much impact on itself.

However, the next moment, something changed suddenly.

Two vines flew out and pierced into Lu Feng's skin. The gathered energy was quickly recovered and gathered into the Blue Silver Emperor's body through the vines.

"What are you doing!" Dugu Bo asked angrily.

The Snake King's martial spirit instantly possessed the body, nine soul rings rose up, and a surge of soul power vibrated.

"Hahaha, stupid human!"

The Blue Silver Emperor laughed loudly and said, "Do you really believe that the Blue Silver Clan would give energy to outsiders for nothing?"

"Too late! Too late! Once the soul ring absorption begins, it can no longer be stopped! This soul master's martial soul is already useless, and his body will be used as nutrients to nourish my people."

As he spoke, Lu Feng's [Tiger Finger Martial Spirit] became more and more transparent, the black light attached to it gradually dissipated, and his aura gradually weakened.

A layer of anger appeared on Blue Silver Emperor's face, and he said to Dugu Bo: "And you! Although your body is full of fishy smell, it is still passable as fertilizer for flowers."
