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

How could Tangshan miss such a golden opportunity? He stomped his legs hard on the ground, his entire body exploding like a cannonball. His blood and qi surged like molten steel boiling in a furnace, a thunderous roar filling his limbs and bones. His body lunged forward, delivering a powerful, heavy Iron Mountain Strike, slamming solidly into the arms of the Terrorclaw Bear.

Boom!

His feet gripped the ground tightly, and power surged from his right foot, flowing through his entire body like giant waves. Tendons, muscles, skin, ligaments, and bones tensed instantly, transforming into a powerful bowstring, which, with his elbow as the arrow, exploded and released a second time at extremely close range.

The Deinonychus, already battered and bruised from the impact, finally succumbed to the strain of the powerful blow, its sternum creaking loudly before a hideous crack appeared.

An overwhelming force surged forth, and the massive body was lifted off the ground like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into a grove of ancient trees not far away. Branches as thick as bowls snapped instantly, and wood chips flew everywhere.

Suddenly, a sense of crisis arose, and five cold lights flashed and disappeared.

Pfft!

Instinctively, he crossed his arms to protect himself, blood spurted out, and Tang Shan instantly had five wounds on his arms, with blood gushing out like blooming flowers.

That's the innate ability, Terrorclaw! Inherited from the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, although its power is not as great as the original, it is still enough to make it stand out among its peers.

If Tangshan Neijiaquan (internal martial arts) hadn't reached such a high level, this claw strike would likely have severely injured him.

The muscles contracted violently, forcibly squeezing the wound shut.

With his god-like perception and control, Tang Shan forcibly sealed off the injuries. Looking at the Deinonychus that had gotten up again and was now glaring fiercely, a cruel smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

His internal energy and soul power surged wildly, with only a portion reserved to maintain his soul skills, the rest being used to strengthen his physical body. Under this infusion of power, his body seemed to expand once more, a faint silver light appearing on his skin. His domineering and tyrannical will, like a seed of savage energy, surged forth, forcing down upon his body.

Roar!

The Deinonychus roared furiously, its eyes bloodshot, its muscles bulging, and its enormous heart pounding like a drum, pumping blood to every part of its body, providing a constant source of power for its wild and untamed form.

Perhaps the fierce clashes before were merely a test; now, the real battle has just begun...

The black-haired girl's figure was carried by the gentle breeze as she moved nimbly through the forest. Only after she had distanced herself from the Deinonychus did she stop, turn around, and open her eyes, which were as big as black pearls, to stare curiously at the battlefield in the distance, which was full of wildness and power.

"Little guy, come up here."

An aged voice rang in the girl's ears. She subconsciously looked up and saw an old man with a figure as straight as a javelin standing on the branch of a large tree beside her, looking down at her.

"Senior, I don't think I can get up there."

The girl tilted her head, her voice ethereal and melodious, exuding a calmness beyond her years, as if she were not the one who had just survived the attack of the Deinonychus.

Seeing the girl's calm expression, Douluo the Serpent Spear became interested and thought to himself, "Interesting."

The powerful soul force instantly enveloped the girl, gently pulling her to his side.

"Thank you for saving me, senior."

Although the girl thanked him, her tone was not very emotional.

"How come you're all alone in the Star Dou Great Forest? Where are your teachers? With your talent, you must have graduated from some prestigious academy, right?"

"The Serpent Spear Douluo asked curiously."

At less than twelve years old, his martial soul is suspected to have dual attributes, making him an absolute genius.

Calculating the enhancement of the body by the soul ring, the real age is probably not even ten years old. Where did this monster come from?

"I'm not from the Advanced Academy. I got separated from my family and wanted to get out of the Star Dou Great Forest first, but I encountered that Devilclaw Bear on the way."

As she spoke, the girl's slender, jade-like fingers pointed to the distant battlefield where the battle was deafening.

"so it is."

The Serpent Spear Douluo stood with his hands behind his back, turning his head to carefully examine the girl beside him. His heart was already brimming with desire: such a genius, if he could bring her back to the Spirit Hall, she would surely become the young master's right-hand woman. He just didn't know if her family would agree; perhaps he could try using the name of the Heaven Dou Crown Prince to his advantage.

While pondering his next move, Serpent Spear Douluo outwardly continued talking to the girl: "How are your family looking for you? Should we take you to a small town outside later?"

The girl's eyes flickered almost imperceptibly. After a moment of silence, she spoke: "I have already notified them, but it may take them a while to find us."

"Alright. It's not safe for you to be alone in the Star Dou Great Forest. Before they find us, why don't you come with us for a while?"

"Snake Spear Douluo said, his gaze seeking the girl's opinion.

"it is good."

The girl nodded slightly. Just as the big yellow cat in her arms was about to open its mouth, the girl quickly pinched its lips shut.

"By the way, what's your name? Since you have family, your family must be quite extraordinary, right? After all, ordinary families can't cultivate such a remarkable genius as you."

Serpent Spear Douluo continued to probe, attempting to start with family background. If it were a large family, winning them over might not be easy; but if it were a small family, with his status as the eldest prince of the Heavenly Dou Clan, it shouldn't be so difficult.

Faced with this somewhat clumsy attempt, the girl cooperated fully and quickly gave the answer she wanted.

"My name is Gu Yue. My family is a reclusive family and not very famous."

"Gu Yue... that's a nice name. But I've never heard of a family with Gu as their surname before."

The Serpent Spear Fighting Demon searched the intestines thoroughly, but found nothing.

The view shifts back to the battlefield, where the primal clash of forces continues. Enormous fists collide with massive bear paws in a raw, unadorned battle of pure power.

Tangshan's strength originates from the ground, flows through his arms, and he engages in a primal struggle with the giant bear before him.

With each attack, soul power is amplified, health is boosted, and willpower is linked, all kinds of buffs are stacked to the maximum, striving to crush the opponent with power and completely suppress them.

Boom boom boom!

Fists and palms clashed, and the aftershocks of the collision between man and beast left the surroundings in a mess. Wherever they passed, bushes were crushed and scattered; trees as thick as a man's embrace broke and collapsed under the occasional impacts of the two, with only an ancient tree as thick as two people's embrace barely surviving, but even so, its trunk was covered with countless deep gray fist marks.

Tang Shan grabbed the bear's massive paw and yanked it hard, causing it to stumble. Taking advantage of the bear's momentary loss of balance, Tang Shan stomped his front foot on the ground and slammed his hands together, striking the bear's head hard on both sides.

Click!

The cracking sound of bones twisting came from the bear's head, but this was only the beginning.

Before the Terrorclaw Bear could react, Tang Shan unleashed a barrage of heavy punches on its massive body. Then, its already muscular thighs, swollen from its increased size, expanded a second time under the effect of its first soul skill, "Self-Control," with tendons and muscles forming a solid leg armor that enveloped the entire leg.

With both hands pressing down firmly on the bear's shoulders, a powerful knee strike erupted, and the hands released their grip the instant the knee struck the bear's chest.

Click!

The dense cracking of bones exploded like firecrackers. In an attempt to kill him instantly, Tang Shan also injected hidden force into his internal organs, causing them to wreak havoc.

No, given Tangshan's current physique, this can no longer be called "hidden strength," but should be called "hidden current."

Mouthfuls of blood gushed from the transformed mouth of the Devilclaw Bear, its life force rapidly fading. Specks of purple light gathered above its corpse, eventually transforming into a pale purple soul ring.

call!

Tang Shan let out a long sigh of relief, removed the restraints from his body, and began to shrink, returning to his normal height of 1.8 meters in the blink of an eye.

He skillfully caught the tiger skin that was slowly falling and tied it around his waist.

He had obtained this tiger skin from an unfortunate, century-old gorilla. The gorilla and a wolf had fought to the death, and Tang Shan, acting out of "benevolence," helped them escape, inadvertently acquiring this pelt in the process.

This fur is specifically used to cover vital parts, to prevent being naked and exposed after using the second soul skill, which would be extremely embarrassing.

No, it seems I still can't give up forging. Putting everything else aside, the effects of the spirit alloy can be integrated into the soul master's body, and even higher-grade metals can change according to the soul master's own body shape. It's simply the best choice for me.

"To be able to challenge and kill a Terrorclaw Bear while being a Great Soul Master, his combat power is truly unparalleled in my life."

Snake Spear Douluo appeared silently beside Tang Shan, his eyes revealing undisguised experience.

"You flatter me, senior. It's mainly because... because..."

Tang Shan wanted to be modest, but the words caught in his throat. He hadn't killed a Soft Bone Rabbit or a Blue Silver Grass, but a Terrorclaw Bear, one of the top high-level soul beasts. To kill a soul beast of this caliber, one had to rely entirely on sheer, hard power.

"Strong is strong! In my estimation, with your current combat strength, you could easily defeat even an ordinary Soul King. I can't even imagine what level of strength you will reach when you come of age."

While sighing, Serpent Spear Douluo took out a large bucket and placed it in front of Tang Shan: "Go wash up quickly. Be careful, there's a girl in that tree who got separated from her family. Let's take her with us."

Tangshan picked up a bucket of water and poured it over her head, casually asking, "Senior, what's her name?"

Clearly, he was still bothered by that vague sense of déjà vu he had felt earlier.

"Her name is Gu Yue..."

P.S.: Seems like there's not much to say, so I'll just continue my usual practice of relentlessly pursuing the author.

Chapter 107 Gu Yue, Thighs; Big Cat, Auspicious Beast (Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets)

Whoosh!

A bucket of cold water was poured over him, leaving Tang Shan unsure whether he felt the chill in his body or his heart.

Serpent Spear Douluo's words were like a bolt from the blue, leaving him completely stunned.

Tang Shan knew that his true martial soul possessed extremely keen hearing, making it impossible for him to mishear, but he still forced a composed expression and casually asked the Serpent Spear Douluo:

"Her name is Gu Yue?"

"Right?" Serpent Spear Douluo obviously didn't notice Tang Shan's expression gradually breaking down, but continued to recount the information he had just obtained, "She seems to be from some reclusive family. She got separated from her family in the Star Dou Great Forest. I told her to come with us first, and then go back when her family comes looking for her. After all, the Star Dou Great Forest is still too dangerous for her."

Tang Shan was unsure what expression to make. There were too many elements hidden in the words of the Serpent Spear Douluo, any one of which would be explosive on its own, let alone when they were piled up together.

Tangshan really wanted to say: Senior She, it's definitely not dangerous for her to go on her own. Returning to the Star Dou Great Forest is like coming home for her, how could there be any danger?

Also, should we leave a little earlier and just leave them here? If their "family" really comes looking for us, it's hard to say whether the two of us will be able to get out alive.

Although Tang Shan wanted to immediately grab Snake Spear Douluo and turn around and leave, reason still forcibly restrained his actions.

After all, it's possible that he just happened to encounter the silver dragon fish, but if he turns around and leaves with the Serpent Spear Douluo, it's very likely to arouse her suspicion, and then it's hard to say what the outcome will be.

As Tang Shan pondered, he couldn't help but recall the image of the girl embracing a yellow creature that he had accidentally seen a few days ago at the original diamond mammoth habitat. So that wasn't an illusion after all. What on earth was this? What the hell was Kboss?

Tang Shan was unaware that even if he did not encounter Gu Yue by chance, his entry into the Soul Ring Skill Space while absorbing the Diamond Fierce Beast Soul Ring would inevitably attract her, given the very clear fluctuations in the rules.

"I think this girl is quite talented. Tangshan, later you can see if you can get her to join His Highness's ranks."

Tang Shan's lips twitched again. He added the Silver Dragon King to the divine lineage to make sure that the Silver Dragon King wouldn't suddenly go berserk and slap the angel away.

"Senior, I will do my best."

Tang Shan could only answer like this, but in his heart, he was already calculating how to prevent the Silver Dragon King and Qian Renxue from meeting. As for the Snake Spear Douluo's suggestion of recruiting him into His Highness's ranks, Tang Shan said, "I don't want to see the Silver Dragon King kill the Angel's successor today and have a monstrous sword hanging over my head tomorrow."

After a quick cleanup, Serpent Spear Douluo and Tang Shan leaped up the tree where Gu Yue was.

Looking at the exquisite and attractive face beneath the black hair on the tree branch, and the large yellow cat in her arms, Tang Shan felt a sense of helplessness.

Why bother with the disguise? If you had silver hair, big silver or purple eyes, and a perfect face, how could I not recognize you?

And sure enough, you actually pulled out Gu Yue's standard attire.

With a pleasing but not stunning appearance, and holding a large cat in her arms, no one would guess it was you, sir.

Tang Shan was speechless with frustration, but then he realized why he had felt a sense of déjà vu before.

During the Douluo Continent III era, wasn't it a Silver Dragon Fish that found the Golden Dragon King's human form while fishing for a Crystal Bear in the Ascension Platform Forest?

Goodness, we've found the reason why he did this in the future; it turns out he has a criminal record.

While his mind raced, Tang Shan had already calmed his body. After all, Gu Yue was once a God-King level powerhouse, and he didn't know what tricks he might have up his sleeve. But if the other party discovered that he already knew his true identity, it was hard to say what the outcome would be.

You may underestimate the Silver Dragon King's astonishing "wisdom," but you should never underestimate her elemental power.

With the leap in physical fitness gained after the breakthrough, Tang Shan quickly approached the tree branch where Gu Yue was located.

A small, white hand reached out in front of him, and Tang Shan instinctively reached out to it, using the strength of the hand's owner to successfully climb to the top of the tree, and said, "Thank you."

"No need to thank me. Let me introduce myself. My name is Gu Yue."

Gu Yue smiled, her eyes, like black jewels, filled with curiosity.

Having just recovered, Tang Shan looked into the other person's clear eyes, and his inexplicable wariness suddenly relaxed a little.

He looked at the other person, a slight smile appearing on his face: "My name is Tang Shan."

Never mind, let's just take it one step at a time. Judging from Gu Yue's actions in the original work, although she is somewhat love-struck, she obviously did not indiscriminately kill innocent people. In fact, the way she fought for the rights of the soul beasts in the end was very gentle, so there shouldn't be much of a crisis.

Tangshan did indeed lower its guard against Gu Yue, and the reason for this was indeed influenced by the original work.

After all, we live in an era where it's all about who can win.

It wasn't that Dou Er Rui Shou was kidnapped by Huo Yuhao, and there was a period before that when the Ben Ti Sect hunted down 100,000-year-old soul beasts in large numbers;

It wasn't the time when Huo Yuhao in Douluo Continent III discovered the incredible power of the Soul Spirit, which nearly wiped out the Soul Beasts;

Although Soul Masters hunt Soul Beasts, Soul Beasts also hunt Soul Masters; there is not much deep-seated hatred between the two sides.

There is absolutely no need to worry about the soul beasts retaliating against humanity.

With his mind made up, Tang Shan's thoughts began to race. Putting aside the fact that the Silver Dragon King was still a powerful first or second-level god despite his serious injuries, the girl in front of him was... well, a powerful figure, a powerful figure in no way inferior to Qian Renxue. If he could cling to this fair and beautiful figure, then what would he have to fear in the entire Douluo Continent?

You must understand, this is a battle for supremacy. The one in the sky is still the old Asura God, who has long since retired. Even the current god of the divine realm is no match for him. He is now a powerful figure who can easily defeat any god.

There are no enemies in the sky. He has the Silver Dragon King as a Douluo Soul Beast and Qian Renxue as a Soul Master. In the entire Douluo Continent, apart from guarding against Bibi Dong, what else does he have to fear?

As long as I hold on to this powerful figure, my future spiritual practice, while not guaranteed to be smooth sailing, will certainly be peaceful and safe.
