Douluo: I, the Sun God

Chapter 80 Sun God Light
"Stinky boy!"

Gu Rong smiled silently and stretched out his right hand forward, not caring at all.

Suddenly, he subconsciously felt a sense of danger in his heart. He raised his hand and used his third soul skill, condensing a bone shield that floated in front of him.

"Bang! Bang!..."

Five blazing rays bombarded the shield, exploding instantly. Flames suddenly burst forth, making it impossible to see the battle situation.

A golden light flashed in Xu Yang's eyes, and his eyes turned into golden pupils of the sun. He looked at the situation inside through the layer of firelight and found that the bone shield had been grasped by Gu Rong in his hand at some point. There were five holes of the same size on it, and it was obvious that the bone shield had been pierced.

Gu Rong, who was holding the shield, had a slightly ugly expression on his face. He was a Titled Douluo, and a defensive type, but he was actually pierced by the defensive soul skills of a Soul Sect. If this were to be told to others, it would be so funny that he would die.

The soul power flowed in his hands, and in the blink of an eye, the five holes were repaired and the shield was intact.

Seeing Gu Rong's actions, Xu Yang instantly understood his thoughts.

Frightened in seconds!
He simply closed his newly acquired golden sun pupils and pretended that he saw nothing.

However, he was extremely excited in his heart. He did not expect that this soul skill was so powerful that it could actually penetrate the defensive soul skill of the Titled Douluo. You know, Gu Rong used the seventh soul skill and the third soul skill to block the impact of the poisonous explosion that was comparable to a nuclear explosion. This shows the abnormal defensive power of this soul skill.

"In that case, I might as well try another way of attacking!"

Before the light faded away, the five suns in the sky shone brightly, and the dazzling light illuminated the already dark sky like daylight. Countless tiny rays of light were like a sudden rain, densely covering the sky all day and bombarding the ancient banyan tree below.

"Don't go too far, little brat!"

Gu Rong's roar was heard in the light, followed by a terrifying burst of soul power, which directly annihilated all the light rain in the sky, revealing Gu Rong with a dark face.

"Grandpa Gu, you are a Titled Douluo!" Xu Yang quickly put away his martial spirit and smiled awkwardly.

"Ha! Ha! Ha!" Dugu Bo, who was watching the battle from the side, couldn't help but laugh out loud. He looked at Gu Rong and said teasingly, "Old Bones, a dignified level 97 Super Douluo, actually suffered a loss at the hands of his own junior because he underestimated the enemy!"

"Fuck!"

Gu Rong's face turned even darker. He was so focused on how to deal with Xu Yang that he even forgot about the old monster Dugu Bo. The bright light just now was nothing to Dugu Bo, so wouldn't all his attempts to cover up have been seen by everyone?

"By the way, where is Uncle Ning?!" Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit subtle, Xu Yang quickly changed the subject.

"Well...Uncle Ning went to investigate. After all, this is inside the Star Dou Great Forest. There are many ten-thousand-year soul beasts here, so it's still very dangerous!" Dugu Yan reacted and looked at Gu Rong with a dark face and responded quickly.

"Really?! Uncle Ning, you've worked so hard!"

“Yeah, it’s very hard!”

……

So the two of them chatted back and forth, trying to dispel the awkward atmosphere. Gu Rong was also very considerate, humming softly and walking aside to rest.

Another half hour passed before Ning Haiyan, who had been on the scout, returned. "Lord Gu, Your Majesty Dugu, the number of ten-thousand-year soul beasts around here is increasing. It seems they've discovered us!"

"Well, Haiyan, you protect Yang'er and Yanyan for a while. We will set off overnight and fly out of the Xingdou Great Forest."

Gu Rong looked a little solemn. They had not moved for too long. Such manipulation was very dangerous in the Star Dou Great Forest. The wisdom of ten thousand year old soul beasts, especially those over fifty thousand years old, was no less than that of humans, and they all hated humans extremely. If they stayed in one place for too long, they would most likely be surrounded by ten thousand year old soul beasts.

This is also the reason why Gu Rong asked Ning Haiyan to scout the surrounding area.

Now that the ten thousand year old soul beasts are beginning to gather, it is very likely that they are preparing to attack them.

Although he was a Titled Douluo, facing the beast tide composed of ten thousand year soul beasts, he was not sure that he could safely protect Xu Yang and Dugu Yan and bring them back intact.

Although Dugu Bo could use poison to cause a massacre, this method of killing was somewhat immoral and would definitely anger the 100,000-year-old soul beast in the Star Dou Great Forest.

There are quite a few hundred thousand year soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest, but the only known king is the Titan Giant Ape. Many other hundred thousand year soul beasts are low-level and mid-level soul beasts like the Soft Bone Rabbit. Because of their bloodline and strength, their presence in the forest is not high, but this does not mean that their strength is not strong. To become a hundred thousand year soul beast, each one has strength no less than a human Titled Douluo.

Therefore, the only option is to leave the Star Dou Great Forest before the soul beasts gather completely.

As for the problem of vision, for a soul master, as long as he concentrates his soul power in his eyes, his night vision ability will not be much different from that of a soul beast. As long as he is careful, there will definitely be no big problem.

After a brief discussion, everyone set out on the journey to leave the Star Dou Great Forest.

They didn't choose the same route they came from, but instead retreated in another direction and headed towards the Xingluo Empire. There were relatively few ten-thousand-year soul beasts in this direction, and with Gu Rong's spatial travel ability, it would be very easy for him to take them away.

Walking in the dark forest, even with the protection of two Titled Douluo and one Soul Douluo, Xu Yang and Dugu Yan did not dare to be careless at all. They focused their soul power in their eyes and kept an eye on the situation around them.

The roars of animals and the chirping of birds can be heard from time to time in the forest, indicating the danger within.

Fortunately, the whole process was safe and sound. Ning Haiyan killed a few foolish thousand-year-old soul beasts with one sword and successfully reached the outskirts of the forest.

When they reached the outskirts of the forest, there were much more soul beasts, but there were very few ten-thousand-year soul beasts, which were not a threat at all to Xu Yang and others.

The group soon arrived at Mentoutie City.

This is a city located on the border of the Xingluo Empire and is quite wealthy.

However, this is a small border town after all, and there is no Qibao Hotel, so the few of them found the most luxurious hotel in the city to stay in, preparing to rest for a night and set off again tomorrow morning.

Early the next morning, everyone rented two carriages and set off towards the poisonous swamp in the south of the continent.

Compared to the Star Dou Great Forest, the poisonous swamp is much smaller. However, because it is filled with poisonous miasma all year round, no humans survive within a radius of ten miles. Only a few poison-attribute soul masters will go there to hunt soul beasts.

The Xingluo Empire is very large, and it took the group nearly two months to reach the outskirts of the poisonous swamp from the Xingdou Great Forest.

Looking at the poisonous miasma that filled the air and the various poisonous insects that kept flying around, Dugu Bo's eyes lit up and he kept muttering, "There are so many poisonous insects, and quite a few rare ones. It seems I've made the right choice this time."
