Douluo Continent: Starting with a Void Treasure Trove

Xu Yang stepped forward, his aim being to catch the Golden Wolves off guard.

"You've been chasing me for so long, it's time for me to get my revenge. Do you really think I'm a pushover?"

Xu Yang thought viciously to himself.

The two golden wolves had been blown to pieces; one was missing its ears, and the other its tail.

Seeing that this weak human dared to provoke it, its ferocity was further ignited, and it began to let out a low, beastly roar. It then lunged at Xu Yang, ready to bite.

As if he had anticipated this scene, Xu Yang moved to the side of the golden wolf before it could get close to his body and grabbed at the wolf's waist and abdomen.

The terrifying dragon claw pierced the golden wolf's soft belly, leaving five bloody claw marks.

This further weakened the golden wolf's fighting ability. However, to Xu Yang's surprise, even under these circumstances, the golden wolf still tried to bite off his arm as if it were about to die.

Fortunately, Xu Yang reacted quickly and dodged to the side; otherwise, he might have lost his arm if that slap had landed on him.

So this soul hunt can now be considered over for him. Even with the Silver Moon Guardian as a safety net, in Xu Yang's eyes it will undoubtedly be a failed soul hunt.

It's just a first spirit ring, yet it cost me an arm. If this isn't a failure, then what is?

As expected, compared to the traditional fighting style of Soul Masters, I am now more suited to the Soul Master role.

The use of tools is a key difference between humans and forest apes.

Of course, this is partly due to my lack of systematic learning in physical skills over the past six years. Perhaps for the entire Sun Moon Empire, martial arts and combat skills are things that are not worth mentioning.

There's nothing that can be done about it; that's how battles between Soul Masters are. Kong Deming even joked about it once:

"Comparing the combat power of two level nine soul masters is roughly about comparing whose soul tool can deal higher damage within a safer range."

After Xu Yang barely dodged the attack of the first golden wolf, the other one was not idle either.

Taking advantage of Xu Yang's unpreparedness, it hurriedly bit Xu Yang's back, trying to cause him more serious injury.

Xu Yang had already taken precautions before the surprise attack on the first golden wolf, and he immediately deactivated his martial spirit possession.

The activated Silver Dragon's detached martial soul form.

Immediately, the originally small and exquisite silver dragon's body began to slowly grow larger, gradually becoming about the same size as the golden wolf, while also exuding a terrifying bloodline pressure.

Without Xu Yang's command, the silver dragon seemed to be of one mind with him and launched an attack on the golden wolf.

After feeling the terrifying bloodline pressure of the silver dragon, the golden wolf's body began to go weak, and it immediately stopped its movement towards Xu Yang.

Instinct told it it couldn't do that, it would die!!!

Seeing that Jinlang had become sickly, which was somewhat unexpected for Xu Yang, he didn't bother to investigate further because of the urgency of the situation.

He took out the Soul Guidance Ray from before and pierced its body in one strike.

Rest in peace...

Xu Yang murmured softly.

After witnessing the deaths of all the Golden Wolves, Kong Deming also came up behind Xu Yang.

Injecting a wisp of soul power served two purposes: firstly, to soothe Xu Yang's emotions, and secondly, to deal with the remaining mess.

He never thought Xu Yang could hunt down the silver wolves. Even if he succeeded by chance, he would most likely be chased away by the golden wolves.

But this situation was truly beyond his expectations.

Even though there are still many imperfections, for example, in Kong Deming's opinion, Xu Yang could have simply used that soul tool to kill the remaining two golden wolves, but he insisted on using his own martial soul to engage in close combat with the golden wolves.

In Kong Deming's eyes, this behavior was completely unnecessary. Even if he wanted to test his combat ability as a Soul Master, now was not the time.

Once he reaches the third or fourth ring, he can then go and learn more about combat experience.

Overall, Kong Deming was quite satisfied with Xu Yang's Soul Hunt, as he had perfectly demonstrated the advantages of a Soul Master in both the initial setup and the surprise attack.

He nodded at Xu Yang with satisfaction and said:

"I've already collected Silver Wolf's corpse and spirit rings. Let's go home and absorb them."

The Sun Moon Empire does have soul tools that can temporarily store soul rings, but they are not yet widely used and are still in the testing phase.

Currently, only the soul tool that stores the ten-thousand-year soul ring still has some flaws. However, several elders and their disciples are still perfecting this final step.

As for the Silver Wolf's corpse, it was a kind of victory for Xu Yang, something to keep as a memento.

The idea of ​​turning the corpses of soul beasts into soul tools is currently only in the theoretical stage.

Because the types of soul beasts are too complex, the Sun Moon Empire's research on them is still relatively superficial.

However, some people have tried to turn soul bones into soul tools. But because the cost-effectiveness was too low, they abandoned the idea after making one or two finished products.

A soul bone, once integrated into a soul master's body, can be passed down even after the soul master's death. However, if it is made into a soul tool and gets damaged during battle, it will be truly ruined.

Therefore, such soul tools, which were not worth the effort, disappeared. However, many people have developed a method to turn damaged soul bones that cannot be absorbed into soul tools.

In a sense, this can be considered a further utilization of the soul bone.

"Let's go back. It'll be safer and I'll feel more at ease if we absorb this spirit ring at home."

Kong Deming said to Xu Yang.

Xu Yang, suppressing his excitement, replied:

"good!"

…………

Kong Deming's residence, as a pillar of the Sun Moon Empire, was not particularly magnificent; in fact, it seemed rather strange.

Kong Deming transformed the various rooms into different laboratories to facilitate his research on soul guides at home.

Even though he and Xu Yang spent most of their time in the offering hall, it was still very clean.

Because Xu Qing's former subordinate, Xu Sheng, an 82-level Soul Douluo, voluntarily resigned from his military post after Xu Qing's death and became Kong Deming's housekeeper.

Xu Sheng, like Xu Qing, was originally a distant branch of the Sun Moon Royal Family. His martial soul was a treasured sword, and his innate soul power was level eight and a half.

He was pulled back from the brink of death by Xu Qing during a battle. Xu Qing discovered his talent and began to focus on cultivating him.

Xu Qing originally considered him a half-friend, but Xu Sheng was inflexible and insisted on acknowledging Xu Qing as his master. In his view, Xu Qing was the one who gave him a second life, so it was only natural to acknowledge Xu Qing as his master.

Moreover, this situation is quite common in the Sun Moon Empire. The royal family of the Sun Moon Empire often selects suitable talents from the army to train as subordinates.

From then on, the two addressed each other as master and servant.

As soon as the grandfather and grandson returned home, Xu Sheng knew immediately. He rushed out to greet them and said:

"Master Kong, young master, welcome home..."
