Douluo Continent: Heaven rewards diligence, Tang San's defenses are breached by liver damage.

"Don't worry, I'm here to end your suffering!"

Lin Chuan did not approach, but drew another arrow and shot it with force.

The sharp arrow pierced the shell of the Earth King, ending its life.

Faint yellow light began to gather above the body of the Earth King, forming a clearly visible yellow halo that shone exceptionally brightly.

"Xiao Chuan, you succeeded?"

Xiao Wu jumped to Lin Chuan's side, her eyes slightly shocked.

Unexpectedly, the King of the Earth, who had ruled for centuries, was killed so easily by a level 10 Soul Master. The calm and collected manner of the battle sent chills down Xiao Wu's spine.

But after all, they were the bloodthirsty kings of the earth. Although they were not the common enemy of soul beasts, few soul beasts liked them. Therefore, Xiao Wu was also shocked, but she did not have any other thoughts.

"I was lucky; it was much easier than I expected."

Lin Chuan smiled faintly and stepped to the side of the corpse of the King of the Earth.

The nearby flames were still burning fiercely, and the temperature was significantly higher than before, but the flames were spreading outwards and would not affect the inside.

In other words, this place is practically a natural place.

"So hot."

Xiao Wu had only been close for a short while when she was already covered in sweat.

"Xiao Wu, I'm about to start absorbing spirit rings, so I'll have to trouble you to protect me."

Seeing Lin Chuan's serious expression, Xiao Wu felt a little sad, but she still nodded.

"With your sister protecting you, Xiao Chuan, you can focus on absorbing the spirit ring!"

Seeing that Xiao Wu agreed, Lin Chuan didn't waste any more time.

After all, the Star Dou Great Forest is extremely dangerous. You might encounter a thousand-year-old or even ten-thousand-year-old soul beast at any time, so it's best to hold on tight.

Lin Chuan sat down cross-legged, and the black short bow in his hand slowly floated up.

Drawn by the power of the soul, the soul ring of the Hundred-Year Earth King flew towards Lin Chuan, and an invisible pressure fell upon him.

As the yellow halo gradually shrank, it enveloped the black short bow.

In an instant, a surge of scorching energy flowed into his right hand and quickly spread throughout his body, making Lin Chuan feel as if he were surrounded by a sea of ​​fire.

Not daring to be careless in the slightest, I immediately began to meditate.

While enduring intense pain, they were also refining this energy.

[You have engaged in a serious meditation session. If you have gained any insights, your soul power will increase slightly, and your proficiency in Soul Power Meditation will increase by 1.]

……

[You have engaged in a serious meditation session. If you have gained any insights, your soul power will increase slightly, and your proficiency in Soul Power Meditation will increase by 1.]

……

In his mind, the proficiency level of the Soul Power Meditation Technique began to jump wildly.

However, Lin Chuan couldn't care less about anything else at this moment. He was focused on refining the energy in his body as quickly as possible to avoid being overwhelmed by this scorching and turbulent energy.

Fortunately, the Soul Power Meditation Technique, which had reached level three, was extremely efficient. Under Lin Chuan's encouragement, the Soul Power within his body was also circulating rapidly, devouring all the outsiders.

Although it is still painful, the situation is slowly getting better.

At this moment.

Xiao Wu, who was standing guard beside Lin Chuan, also looked at him nervously. At first, Xiao Wu was a little worried when she saw that Lin Chuan's whole body was red, but as time passed, the condition of the person in front of her did not worsen, but instead became more stable, and Xiao Wu breathed a sigh of relief.

Boom boom boom!

Just then, a series of heavy footsteps suddenly sounded.

The ground began to tremble slightly.

Faced with this sudden turn of events, Xiao Wu didn't feel nervous at all; instead, a look of surprise appeared on her face. "Er Ming, what brings you here?"

A giant ape emerged from the forest.

"Sister Xiaowu, you're finally back."

The Titan Ape's face showed a human-like joy, but when it saw Lin Chuan sitting cross-legged behind Xiao Wu, the joy on its face instantly froze and turned into hostility.

"A human Soul Master who hunted Soul Beasts, I'll kill you!"

Without a word, the Titan Ape raised its enormous hand, intending to crush Lin Chuan to death.

"Stop! Erming, he's my friend!"

Xiao Wu stepped in front of Lin Chuan at the right moment, stopping the Titan Giant Ape.

Chapter 12, First Soul Skill: Explosive Arrow

Upon hearing Xiao Wu's words, the Titan Ape shook its massive head, a look of innocence in its eyes.

"Sister Xiaowu, this human may have seen me."

Xiao Wu was stunned for a moment, then immediately shook her head.

"It's alright. Xiao Chuan is focused on absorbing the spirit ring and won't notice anything outside, so my identity won't be revealed."

"Also, Erming, you were too impulsive. Next time you sense my presence, observe from a distance first. Otherwise, if you rush here like this and there are other people with me, it will be very troublesome."

The Titan Ape nodded in a human-like manner, its lantern-sized eyes revealing a clear-eyed foolishness.

"Erming, how is Daming?" Xiaowu asked again.

Titan Ape nodded again, "Da Ming and I are both fine, after all, there are no soul beasts in the forest that can rival us. But it's too dangerous for you, Sister Xiao Wu, to be alone in the human world."

"Of course I know, but I must avenge my mother!"

Xiao Wu bit her silver teeth, her eyes filled with sorrow and hatred.

“But that woman was already a Title Douluo a few years ago, and her strength has probably increased even further now. Sister Xiao Wu, you alone may not be a match for her.”

The Titan Ape let out a low growl, a hint of worry in its heart.

Not to mention, that woman was accompanied by two Title Douluos, whose identities were clearly extraordinary. Adding herself to that, there were a total of three Title Douluos. Xiao Wu was at a huge disadvantage by herself.

Even so, I will not give up.

Xiao Wu stubbornly shook her head.

Since I chose to embark on the path of human transformation, I cannot give up halfway.

Suddenly remembering something, Xiao Wu turned to look at Lin Chuan, whose whole body was red. She had thought that Tang San, who was born with full soul power, was a rare human genius.

But now that I think about it, this human boy in front of me is probably even better.

If we could get other help, perhaps...

Xiao Wu's eyes flickered slightly, and her mind gradually became active.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

The redness on Lin Chuan's body began to subside, and a crisp cracking sound seemed to come from his body as the violent and scorching energy completely merged with his soul power.

Seeing this, Xiao Wu knew that Lin Chuan had successfully absorbed the soul ring and would be waking up soon, so she hurriedly urged, "Xiao Chuan is about to wake up, Er Ming, you should go back quickly and let Da Ming know that I'm safe."

Despite his reluctance, the Titan Ape nodded, got up, and ran off into the distance.

After another stick of incense.

Lin Chuan's appearance has completely returned to normal, and the soul power within his body has gradually subsided.

Slowly opening his eyes, he saw Xiao Wu's curious gaze.

"Xiao Chuan, you're finally awake! I was so bored."

Having finally succeeded in acquiring the spirit ring, Lin Chuan was in a good mood and chuckled, "Xiao Wu, thank you for protecting me."

Xiao Wu waved her hand dismissively, "No need to thank me, we're friends."

Friends?!

Lin Chuan's eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't respond.

"Let's not talk about that anymore. What soul skill did you acquire?"

Xiao Wu cast another curious glance at her.

Lin Chuan didn't hold back. He channeled his soul power to release his martial soul, then drew an arrow from his quiver, nocked the bowstring, and the yellow soul ring behind him instantly lit up.

Suddenly, Lin Chuan saw the arrow on the bow turn fiery red, with the arrowhead flashing a dazzling red light.

Let go of my fingers!

huh~~~

The arrow shot forward.

The arrow struck a tree with pinpoint accuracy, which was three meters in diameter. With a loud bang, the trunk exploded violently and was severed in half.
