Douluo Continent: From Internal Martial Arts to the Law of Heaven and Earth

Su Yuntao sighed again. He had finally escaped the pursuit and hid in the Sunset Forest, where he encountered a pack of wolves that suited his physique for cultivation. He had also successfully broken through his soul power level. Three good things had come together, which should have made him doubly happy, but now he had ended up in this situation.

He was speechless, looking at the little wolf cub perched on his shoulder, utterly helpless: "Little guy, why did you have to catch insects? Catching insects is one thing, but why did you have to touch those things?"

The little wolf cub let out a soft howl upon hearing the sound, and stuck out its scarlet tongue to lick Su Yuntao's cheek. Specks of golden light spilled from the corner of its mouth—this was the reason he was being hunted down again.

Boom!

A dazzling burst of light suddenly erupted, illuminating the dim forest as if it were daytime, and a brilliant ball of light, carrying a violent aura, slammed down from behind.

The Bloodstained Wolf King reacted with lightning speed, twisting its waist sharply and flashing sideways. The ball of light grazed the wolf's body and crashed into the ground, exploding with a deafening roar! Debris and dirt shot into the sky, and dust filled the air, obscuring the entire field of vision.

The wolf king dared not stop for a moment. Under the cover of the smoke and dust, he led the pack to continue traversing the forest, fleeing desperately deeper into the Sunset Forest.

hum!

A piercing sound suddenly rang out, and a dazzling blade of light, several meters long, materialized, slicing down like a giant guillotine with a chilling killing intent. Its speed was so fast that there was no way to avoid it! With a crisp "plop," a blood-soaked demon wolf at the end of the wolf pack was unable to dodge and was directly cleaved in two by the blade of light. Blood gushed out, staining the surrounding grass and trees red.

The moment the light blade dissipated, a figure wrapped in dazzling blue light flapped its wings and gave chase. The wind from its wings swept through the air, and its speed was even faster than that of the wolf pack fleeing with all their strength exhausted, and the distance between them kept closing.

"Big Blood, faster! It's catching up!"

Su Yuntao shouted urgently, urging the wolf king's will to its fullest extent, and communicating mentally with the Bloodstained Demon Wolf King beneath him, while patting the wolf's body to signal for acceleration.

The ten-thousand-year-old soul beast has already awakened its intelligence and can use some of its mental power. Although it cannot launch mental attacks, it can use Su Yuntao's wolf king will as a medium to conduct simple thought transmission.

Awoo!

The Bloodstained Demon Wolf King let out a low growl, and a rapid mental fluctuation was transmitted.

"You mean the wolf pack can unleash another Blood Burst, but it's extremely taxing, and if they can't replenish their losses quickly, they'll be weakened for a long time?"

While maintaining his balance, Su Yuntao fed back his understanding to the Wolf King through his will.

The blood-soaked wolf king, charging wildly, nodded fiercely.

"Then use it! Let all the wolves ignite their blood! If we still can't shake that thing off after the eruption, then we'll fight it to the death for the rest of the time!"

Su Yuntao's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and a huge wolf-shaped phantom materialized behind him, its fangs bared.

His thoughts were too complex, and it took the Bloodstained Wolf King a long time to fully comprehend them. In that short moment, two more blades of light slashed down, and two more Bloodstained Wolves screamed as their heads were severed, and blood splattered down.

At this point, including the wolf cub on Su Yuntao's shoulder, only fifty-three Bloodstained Demon Wolves remained.

Awooo—!

Upon receiving the command, the Bloodstained Demon Wolf King suddenly raised its head and let out a wolf howl, filled with determination!

In an instant, its entire body blazed with red light, as if it were burning with raging fire. Its soul power surged, and its aura suddenly increased by several times. Its originally gray-white fur was dyed crimson by the red light.

P.S.: There's one more chapter coming up in twenty minutes, and it's not finished being revised yet.

Chapter 237 The Terrifying Pursuer, the Severely Wounded Su Yuntao

The blood was burning, turning into streams of boiling power, which suddenly increased the speed of the Bloodstained Demon Wolf King as it ran. With each kick of its limbs, stones flew up, and its body swelled up a little, its muscles bulging, revealing a ferocious fighting spirit.

Upon hearing their leader's command, the remaining Bloodstained Wolves let out a low growl in unison, unleashing their Blood Burning Talents. Their blood scorched, and their bodies glowed with a dazzling crimson aura as they entered a state of desperate struggle.

A continuous crimson light enveloped the agile wolf bodies, the crimson light converging and merging like a surging, blood-red ocean, carrying a violent aura as it rapidly swept through the Sunset Forest.

Seemingly sensing Su Yuntao's desperate escape with the wolf pack, the aura of the pursuer behind him surged again, and a dazzling golden light flashed. Almost instantly, it traversed several meters and appeared above the wolf pack.

The light slowly faded, and it finally revealed its true form—it was an enormous butterfly with wingspans of a full meter. The surface of its wings changed from deep blue to azure to light blue from top to bottom, as if the clearest blue of the sky had been condensed into its wings.

Its wings are covered with silver-white V-shaped patterns, which shimmer with light as they flow, like carefully inlaid irregular gemstones, making it look luxurious and dazzling.

With each graceful flutter of its wings, the butterfly scatters tiny specks of golden light, which fall to the ground and vanish in an instant as dust.

This is the hunter relentlessly pursuing the Bloodthirsty Demon Wolf pack, a top-tier soul beast with a cultivation level of 20,000 years—the Goddess of Light Butterfly.

This morning, after finishing breakfast, Su Yuntao prepared to practice with the wolf pack to increase his combat experience. He then planned to go hunting with the wolf pack. However, just after fighting a Bloodstained Demon Wolf that was 3,200 years old, he saw the Bloodstained Demon Wolf King's cub happily running towards him, seemingly carrying something bright in its mouth.

Su Yuntao could tell that the other party intended to give him the prey. Over the past few days, he had basically integrated into the wolf pack and had a particularly good impression of the wolf cub. In addition, he also had a very good relationship with the cub's father, the Bloodstained Demon Wolf King, so he did not refuse the other party's kindness.

Although the prey looked like a butterfly, Su Yuntao thought he probably couldn't eat it, but keeping it as a keepsake would be quite nice.

Then, he took the butterfly from the wolf cub's mouth. Without the cover of its mouth, he immediately recognized the butterfly's species; it was a Hercules butterfly that was just over a hundred years old.

Although Su Yuntao was surprised by this, he didn't think much of it. However, it was a pity that the Goddess of Light Butterfly had died shortly after he acquired it. It was highly likely that the little wolf cub hadn't controlled his strength properly and was already seriously injured when he brought it in.

He then ignored the light blue fluid on his hands, wiped it off, and vigorously rubbed the wolf cub's head to express his gratitude before taking it with him on a hunt.

Then a 20,000-year-old Goddess of Light butterfly appeared in front of Su Yuntao, and then it was a chase, a flight, but he could keep up with her.

Top-tier soul beasts are not all the same. The Bloodstained Demon Wolf King is only at the very bottom of the top-tier soul beasts because it broke through ten thousand years and was originally a high-level soul beast. However, the Goddess of Light Butterfly is different. It can be said that soul beasts with the word "god" in their name or related to gods are definitely not ordinary. There is a super soul beast called Dark Demon Evil God Tiger with time-space attributes and bugged soul skills in the Arena of Life and Death.

There are rumors that the Titan Snow Demon Ape is a super soul beast that inherits the bloodline of the Ice God, possesses ultimate ice, and whose power is no less than that of the Titan Giant Ape.

While the Goddess of Light Butterfly is not among the super soul beasts, it is definitely at the pinnacle of top-tier soul beasts, far surpassing the Bloodstained Wolf King, not to mention the difference in their lifespans of ten thousand years.

With no other option, the wolf pack had to flee for their lives, or they would surely be killed by the 20,000-year-old Goddess of Light Butterfly.

Su Yuntao, who was lying on the back of a wolf, looked back at the wolf pack that was bursting with blood, and then couldn't help but look up again at the butterfly that was constantly scattering orbs of light energy above its head, looking very puzzled.

Why would the offspring of a 20,000-year-old soul beast be a soul beast that's only a hundred years old? Is that even reasonable?

Tangshan: Brother, you can't only care about whether something is reasonable when you encounter danger. Is a hundred-year-old soul bone reasonable? Since a hundred-year-old soul bone can appear, it's quite reasonable that the offspring of a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast only have a hundred-year-old offspring.

The brilliant power of light instantly gathered under the wings of the Goddess of Light, condensing into a dazzling ball of light, which then exploded in the next instant!

A golden beam of light, as thick as a bucket, shot out from the butterfly's body, instantly piercing through the bodies of the two blood-soaked demon wolves.

Su Yuntao gritted his teeth, suppressing the murderous intent in his heart, and let himself be carried by the blood-soaked wolf king at high speed.

Splash!

The blood-soaked wolves darted through the dense forest, their claws scraping against the tree trunks, breaking and scattering branches. The Goddess of Light butterfly in the air remained elegant, yet it continuously unleashed sharp golden rays, each carrying a chilling killing intent to reap lives.

After passing through the dense forest, the view suddenly opened up, revealing a huge basin. The basin was shrouded in a thick, impenetrable poisonous barrier that blocked out the sun and was chilling to behold.

The wolf pack was clearly very familiar with the terrain. Without hesitation, they ran around the outer edge of the valley and headed towards the hidden exit on the other side. Meanwhile, the Goddess of Light Butterfly, looking at the dense and terrifying poisonous barrier in the sky, noticeably slowed down the frequency of its wing flapping, forced to lower its flight altitude, and at the same time increased the distance between itself and the wolf pack to prevent them from launching a counterattack.

Su Yuntao glanced regretfully at the Goddess of Light Butterfly in the distance. Seeing that it was still hanging there like a leech, his expression grew even more unpleasant. Clearly, the other party had never given up the idea of ​​killing them.

This won't do. The wolf pack is already exhausted and needs to rest immediately.

Su Yuntao's pupils contracted, and his eyes scanned rapidly around, desperately searching for a way to escape danger.

Can we go into the valley to rest? No, the area outside the valley is covered with the Seven-Scaled Jade Flowers, which contain deadly poison. Rushing in would be tantamount to suicide.

Suddenly, Su Yuntao's eyes narrowed, his gaze locking onto a spot—the entire area of ​​jasper flowers was charred black, and the surrounding poisonous mist had thinned several times over.

He glanced up at the gloomy sky, suddenly remembered the torrential rain and thunder of the previous night, and his face instantly lit up with joy: "It's truly heaven's help!"

Without hesitation, he patted the Bloodstained Wolf King's neck and simultaneously transmitted his thoughts to it, raising his hand to point directly at the dark area of ​​the Azure Scale Flower.

The Bloodstained Wolf King instantly understood, turned its head to survey the area where the poisonous fog was thin, and slammed on the brakes without hesitation. Its huge body carved several deep grooves in the muddy ground, and then it suddenly turned around and ran wildly towards the scorched green flower sea.

One after another, blood-soaked demon wolves followed closely behind, turning in unison. Their sharp claws sank deep into the mud, leaving deep furrows, as they plunged headlong into the thin, poisonous fog, following closely in the footsteps of the wolf king.

The figure of the Goddess of Light Butterfly lingered and hesitated on the outskirts of the poisonous fog, its wings trembling slightly, clearly showing extreme fear of this highly toxic miasma.

It stared intently at Su Yuntao on the back of the Bloodstained Wolf King, then suddenly folded its wings together. The power of light on its body suddenly intensified to the extreme, and dazzling golden light gathered wildly in front of it, condensing into a huge light blade several feet long, which shot out like lightning!

Tear--!

The incomparably sharp blade of light cleaved a straight gap in the poisonous barrier ahead. Su Yuntao felt the hairs on the back of his head stand on end. The instinctive warning from the fusion of his martial souls left him no time to turn around. Almost subconsciously, he suddenly unleashed his soul power, pressing his hands firmly down on the Bloodstained Wolf King's body.

The blood-soaked wolf king staggered, instinctively crouching low to avoid a fatal blow.

*Thud!* Blood splattered. Su Yuntao felt a sharp, icy pain in his left leg. His trouser leg was instantly torn apart by the sharp edge of the light blade, and his skin was grazed, leaving a patch of flesh torn open.

hiss--!

Su Yuntao gasped in pain as a thick, putrid fumes entered his mouth and nose, then traveled down his throat and into his body. The fumes rapidly eroded the wound on his left leg.

"Come on!"

Su Yuntao's throat was burned by the poison gas, his voice was hoarse and broken. He pounded on the back of the blood-soaked wolf king with all his might, and his hair stood on end again - the second attack was already approaching!

The Bloodstained Wolf King, whose steps had been faltered by the sudden burst of energy, finally regained its footing before the second blade of light descended. With a burst of strength from its limbs, it leaped into the air, the blade of light grazing its tail fur before slashing fiercely into the ground where the man and the wolf had just stood, instantly carving out a hideous trench several feet deep.

The blood-soaked wolf king, leaping through the air, looked down at the deep ravine below, feeling fortunate. But with danger looming, there was no time to waste. It swung its limbs, carrying Su Yuntao, and rapidly approached the valley.

Whoosh whoosh!

The sound of air being torn apart continued, and golden light blades shot out in dense bursts, but Su Yuntao and the Bloodstained Wolf King were prepared, and all the light blades missed their mark, posing no further threat.

Soon, the Bloodstained Wolf King led Su Yuntao and the remaining wolves to the top of the valley, and then jumped down without hesitation.

Enraged, the Goddess of Light Butterfly flapped its wings wildly, its light power surging. However, seeing the Azure Scale Seven Absolute Flowers gathering again around the valley and growing at a visible speed, along with the increasingly dense poisonous barrier, it ultimately dared not pursue rashly. It could only vent its anger by frantically unleashing light blades at the sea of ​​Azure Scale Flowers before turning away in a huff.

Connecting to the bottom of the valley is a nearly vertical, steep slope. The slope is slippery and covered with gravel and withered vines. If an ordinary person came here, they would be helpless. But for the bloodthirsty wolf pack that roams the mountains and forests year-round, this steep slope is no different from flat ground.

Once the Goddess of Light Butterfly was confirmed to have completely departed, the wolf pack withdrew their Blood Burning talent, and their originally grayish-white fur became even darker and drier after being burned by the blood.

Upon reaching the bottom of the valley, a spectacular sight suddenly appeared before us—the lake was precisely divided by an invisible boundary, clearly separated.

On one side, the lake water was crimson red, like molten iron, steaming with rolling heat waves;

On the other side, the lake water was as white as ancient ice, with a light mist condensing on the surface, and wisps of soft, cold air lingering around it.

On each side of the lake shore grows a magical herb, its leaves as lustrous as jade, with a faint spiritual light flowing between its veins.

Awoo!

The tender howl of the wolf roused the blood-soaked wolf king from this strange sight. It subconsciously turned around and saw that Su Yuntao's face was bluish-purple, his breathing was weak, and the wound on his left leg had long been corroded by the poison gas and riddled with holes.

The bloodied wolf cub anxiously stuck out its tongue, licking his wound repeatedly, its little head rubbing against his arm, its eyes full of unease.

Roar!

The Bloodstained Wolf King growled and hurriedly and carefully put Su Yuntao off his back, afraid of touching his wounds.

Su Yuntao, whose consciousness had barely returned to a sliver, wore a bitter smile.

They thought they had managed to escape, but in the end, they failed.

His physique was not that of a soul beast. He tried to hold his breath and use his soul power to resist the poisonous miasma, hoping to withstand the poison even if he was poisoned. However, the pursuit of the Goddess of Light Butterfly was too relentless. He accidentally inhaled a large mouthful of poisonous gas, and now the poison has probably already invaded his internal organs.

Why is it relentlessly pursuing me? Is it simply because that hundred-year-old Goddess of Light butterfly died at my hands?

He turned his head with difficulty, looking helplessly at the wolf cub licking its wounds, his voice hoarse and weak: "Little guy, you might really kill me this time."

Chapter 238 The Refinement of the Body by Ice and Fire: The Advancing Dugu Yan and the Guilty-Hearted Xue Qinghe

Ugh!

Even though it's not very old, the bloodline itself means that the Bloodstained Demon Wolf King cub's intelligence is still quite strong.
