Douluo Continent: The Ten Kings of Hell, I am the Emperor of the Underworld

Chapter 79 Searching for the Prison-Suppressing Divine Beast, the Lake of Life

"Elder Chen, I'm entrusting this Underworld Palace to you."

In Soto City, Ning Qiuyang addressed Chen Jianjun before leaving the Underworld Palace.

"Don't worry, with me here, no one can damage a single blade of grass or tree in the Underworld Palace, not even Qian Daoliu."

Chen Jianjun was defeated by Qian Daoliu twice and has always been somewhat unconvinced.

Besides the fact that Qian Daoliu's level was higher than his, he believed that Qian Daoliu also had the advantage of terrain. In Wuhun City, Qian Daoliu could even call upon some of the divine power of the Angel God. Fighting Qian Daoliu in Wuhun City would be too disadvantageous.

Now, as the temple priest of the Underworld Palace, Chen Jianjun's status is actually similar to that of Qian Daoliu's Angel God Guardian. When encountering powerful enemies, he can also call upon some of the power of the Underworld.

If Qian Daoliu really leaves Wuhun City to fight Chen Jianjun here, with one gaining an advantage and the other losing, Chen Jianjun might actually be able to defeat Qian Daoliu.

Ning Qiuyang left alone.

The sisters Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing remained in the Underworld Palace, preparing to complete the first test of their divine trials as Black and White Impermanence.

Ning Rongrong and Dugu Yan sensed something about the divine test and had already returned to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School ahead of time.

As for Qian Renxue, he needs to go to Tiandou City first.

She's been gone for so long, it's like she's abandoned the mission. Going to Heaven Dou City is a final farewell, and she'll have to go back to Spirit City afterwards.

"Brother Qiuyang, see you in Tiandou City," Qian Renxue said.

"Alright, see you in Tiandou City. Take care, Sister Qianqian."

Qian Renxue smiled slightly, her wings appeared, and she flew towards the direction of Tiandou City.

Ning Qiuyang took a step forward, activated the Underworld Passage, and his figure disappeared from the front of the Underworld Palace.

His destination was the Star Dou Great Forest, where he planned to complete the long-delayed second divine test.

The underworld is now basically complete, but it needs three guardian beasts to suppress the underworld's veins for a long time to further improve the underworld.

Ning Qiuyang's strength was not strong at the time, so he postponed the second divine test.

Even if he is no match for those 100,000-year-old soul beasts now, he is more than capable of protecting himself.

Ning Qiuyang activated the Underworld Pathway with all his might. His third soul ring was already over ten thousand years old, and its effect was greatly enhanced.

Initiating a passage through the underworld can allow Ning Qiuyang to travel as far as forty or fifty miles.

It didn't take Ning Qiuyang long to arrive outside the Star Dou Great Forest.

Instead of searching aimlessly for suitable soul beasts to become the Prison Guardian Beasts, he headed directly towards the Lake of Life in the core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest.

……

"Dean, you're finally awake."

"Shrek Academy!" Shao Xin exclaimed in surprise.

As a food-type Soul Master, Shao Xin was very glad that he didn't go to the Underworld Palace with Flander and the others that day.

Shao Xin was stunned when he saw the terrible state of Flanders and the others.

When they went there, everyone was unharmed, but when they came back, not a single one was alright, especially Flander, who was the most seriously injured and was barely clinging to life.

After Flander woke up, everyone from Shrek Academy rushed over.

"Flander, I'm glad you're not dead."

Yu Xiaogang, who was blind, groped his way toward Flander's bed.

"Xiaogang, your eyes."

When Flander led Yu Xiaogang and the others on their escape, he was completely focused on his own breath and didn't notice that they had been injured later.

Yu Xiaogang was truly on the verge of tears.

His eyeballs had completely disappeared, and he couldn't even squeeze out a single tear.

"Flander, my eyes, like your hands, are gone." Flander, who had just woken up, slowly looked around at the others, then painfully closed his eyes.

The Shrek Academy he founded has now become like this, and he feels so heartbroken he could vomit blood.

"Flander, let's go to Tiandou City to find Erlong. With our trio together, we can definitely revitalize Shrek Academy."

Since losing his sight, Yu Xiaogang has been filled with immense fear, terrified of being abandoned.

Although Tang San was his disciple, he understood that he couldn't rely on Tang San for everything.

But Liu Erlong was different. He believed that once they met again, given their past relationship, Liu Erlong would never let him leave despite his blindness.

"This is not good."

Flanders hesitated.

Although he has a thick skin, it's still not as thick as Yu Xiaogang's.

Moreover, he genuinely cared about Liu Erlong. Now that he was a one-armed man, how could he possibly appear in front of the person he admired?

He was also worried that their reunion with Liu Erlong would cause trouble for her.

“There’s nothing wrong with it,” Yu Xiaogang said. “Can you really bear to watch Shrek Academy, which you founded, fall apart and disappear completely?”

"of course not."

Flander was persuaded by Yu Xiaogang.

"Alright, once my injuries have healed a bit, we'll go find Erlong. It's been so many years since we last saw her; I wonder how she is now."

"Yes, I'm also looking forward to reuniting with Erlong."

Since Flander and his friends returned, Shrek Academy has been in turmoil.

If Flander doesn't take any action, Shrek Academy might really fall apart, not only the students but also the teachers.

After listening to Flander and Yu Xiaogang's conversation, Tang San asked:
"Teacher, who is this Liu Erlong you're talking about?"

Having suffered another blow, Tang San became much more sinister. Even when speaking to Yu Xiaogang, his voice was icy cold.

"She is my and Shrek's... good friend. The three of us made quite a name for ourselves in the world of Soul Masters back then."

"Oh."

Tang San didn't care who Liu Erlong was; he was waiting for Tang Hao to come to him.

After returning from the Underworld Palace, his soul problem resurfaced. He urgently needed to absorb the 50,000-year-old soul bone in Tang Hao's possession, and he also wanted to go to the Star Dou Great Forest with Tang Hao to hunt more soul beasts and find more soul bones.

The core area of ​​the Star Forest.

Both the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python were in a daze; in the past, they would definitely be sleeping right now.

However, ever since they helped Tang San hunt down a large number of soul beasts that were over ten thousand years old, they would see those soul beasts that had died at their hands whenever they slept.

They had killed quite a few soul beasts in the past, but that was all for survival and to become stronger, and they never felt guilty. But this time, they were hunting soul beasts to help humans obtain soul bones, and they felt that the other soul beasts were looking at them differently.

"These two guys also have so much resentment from soul beasts, it seems they've become beast traitors too, just like that old rabbit."

Ning Qiuyang, through the Netherworld Eye, saw the intense resentment emanating from the two soul beasts in the space between Yin and Yang.

"It seems we can give Di Tian a big gift."

Ning Qiuyang looked at the Lake of Life and sent a spiritual force probing beneath the surface of the lake.

Before long, a majestic voice came from the depths beneath the lake.

"who."

Upon hearing this sound, the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Ape trembled violently.

Oh no, why did he wake up early?
Did he find out that we killed and hunted high-age soul beasts?
The Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, feeling guilty, were pounding their hearts like drums, extremely panicked.
