Douluo Sharingan, I really didn't coerce Xiao Wu!

Chapter 31 The Bloodline Limit Plan

In the morning, the sunlight gradually warmed up, but most of it was absorbed by the forest, making it feel somewhat chilly.

Chen Xuan joined a team of ten people, led by a burly man at the Soul King level, as they entered the Star Dou Great Forest.

For half an hour, they stayed on the periphery, looking for suitable prey, and none of them dared to venture deep into the forest.

Ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts roam the area, and even soul beasts with a cultivation of one hundred thousand years exist there. The forest overlords, the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python, inhabit the central area.

The man leading the team was a big guy with a muscular body and a high level of cultivation. He had reached the Soul King level two or three years ago, but he still turned pale when it came to ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts.

Even someone with his level of cultivation dared not venture deeper into the forest, only lingering on the outskirts, which gives you an idea of ​​how dangerous this forest is.

"The soul beasts here are extremely ferocious. Even in the outer areas, there is a possibility of encountering ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts, unlike the soul beasts raised by the empire."

From the moment they entered the Star Dou Great Forest, the burly leader dared not relax, his expression extremely solemn, constantly paying attention to his surroundings.

"From now on, no one is allowed to leave my side by more than 20 meters, especially those Great Soul Masters. I won't be responsible if they die here." His name was Da Zhuang, and he was rough and always spoke bluntly.

Within the group, the five Great Soul Masters tensed up, their expressions filled with fear, and immediately took a few steps closer to the other party.

The team leader, Da Zhuang, then pointed to the four people in the group and said, "You two are responsible for clearing the way ahead, and you, you should be an agility-based attacker, so you're responsible for observing from the air."

"Okay," the three replied without any resistance, and walked to the front to clear the way.

When the team leader, Da Zhuang, pointed at Chen Xuan, he was taken aback, and his expression turned somewhat strange.

"Too young." He couldn't help but wonder, does this person really have the strength of a Soul Master? Is the old man's recruit reliable?

At most, he's just entered the Soul Venerable realm; there's absolutely no chance he'll get close to the Soul Sect level. After all, among ordinary people, breaking through to level 30 at the age of sixteen is already quite remarkable.

Many people, even in their thirties, barely reach the level of a Soul Master (level 40), while others spend their entire lives without ever breaking through to the Soul King level.

He was the lucky one, reaching the Soul King realm in his forties or fifties.

"Never mind, you can stay at the back of the line." Team leader Dazhuang shook his head in disappointment, waving his hand at Chen Xuan as if he were disgusted.

Chen Xuan was speechless; how much did they look down on him?

However, he still walked to the back of the line and did not refuse the other party's arrangement.

"Fine, that'll save me some effort." Chen Xuan didn't object; it suited him perfectly. He could just be invisible.

Unlike the others, their goal was to absorb souls, whose soul rings had a limit of around nine thousand years. Therefore, they needed to venture deeper into the Star Dou Great Forest.

"I wonder how long a kaleidoscope-level illusion can control a soul beast," Chen Xuan murmured. He could no longer hide his strength on this trip and had to use those terrifying eyes.

The reason we didn't use it before the competition was twofold: first, we were afraid of attracting attention and unnecessary trouble; second, we were afraid of wasting it and didn't want to use it unless absolutely necessary.

The main problem is that he has no close relatives. Once his Mangekyou Sharingan power is exhausted, there will be no Sharingan to replace it. In that case, he will have to live in a dark world for the rest of his life, with no light and only darkness.

Chen Xuan wasn't sure either. He wasn't good at genjutsu, hadn't trained in it, and didn't have the time. Moreover, he only had a straight Mangekyou Sharingan, which was geared towards speed and power, not a curved Mangekyou Sharingan that was good at genjutsu. In some ways, it wasn't much better than a three-tomoe genjutsu.

Chen Xuan knew that if he went deeper, he would inevitably encounter ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts, but there was nothing he could do about it. The outer area was mostly filled with thousand-year-old soul beasts, and nine-thousand-year-old ones were extremely rare, and even if they were, they might not be suitable.

He awakened a spatial martial soul. After consuming the plant that resembled a divine herb, the quality of his martial soul was elevated, making it like a non-attribute martial soul, which most soul beasts did not reject.

This time, he chose a water-attribute martial soul as his target to test whether his idea was feasible.

Chen Xuan felt that if he possessed water-attribute soul power, he might be able to cultivate water-attribute ninjutsu, thus solving the problem of not having water-attribute chakra.

If things go as he predicted, the next spirit ring will be an earth-attribute spirit ring, and the one after that will be a rich yang-attribute spirit ring.

With soil as its foundation, water as its nourishment, and yang soul power as its seed, it awakens the ultimate bloodline limit—Wood Release!

The idea is wonderful, but if it fails, it will be a waste of a spirit ring.

"Forget it, let's just take it one step at a time." Chen Xuan snapped out of his thoughts and followed the group.

And so, the ten-person team advanced, slowly venturing deeper into the outer perimeter in search of suitable prey.

The employer, Long-Bearded Big Tree, was very satisfied with the arrangement made by team leader Da Zhuang. The current positioning, with him and his beloved son protected in the middle, made him feel very safe.

The bearded uncle's son, Xiao Shuai, possesses a beast spirit and is searching for a powerful offensive spirit beast that is around 1,300 years old.

Chen Xuan was slightly astonished. Most of the Seven Freaks had only reached the third ring level in about 1,700 to 1,800 years. This person, born into humble circumstances, was a genius.

Suddenly, a rustling sound came from afar. The grass in that area was moving, and the movement was very large, like a large, ferocious beast.

The team leader, Da Zhuang, suddenly tensed up, his expression turning serious. He shouted, "Don't stray from me! The three of you go check what's going on!"

The three men were only in their thirties and were also afraid, so they only dared to jump onto the big tree and approach cautiously.

After seeing what was behind the bushes, they breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It looks like a wolf with a red tail."

"How long are they? Are their claws red too?" the team leader, Da Zhuang, asked, his eyes narrowing.

The three nodded in their direction; the claws were indeed red and about three meters long.

"Three meters, exactly thirteen hundred years." Upon hearing this, the team leader, Da Zhuang, was overjoyed and immediately decided that this was the soul beast they wanted.

This wolf is named Blood Wolf. It is extremely ferocious and is very suitable for offensive Soul Masters.

Strangely, these spirit beasts live in groups and rarely venture out alone.

Of course, this possibility cannot be ruled out.

Upon hearing this, the long-bearded uncle was overjoyed and said urgently, "Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and arrest them!"

The team leader, Da Zhuang, didn't hesitate. Five spirit rings appeared beneath his feet: two yellow, two purple, and one black. At the same time, a gigantic phantom of a brown bear appeared behind him.

Chen Xuan was about to step forward when the other person stopped him, as if they were disgusted and didn't need him to do anything, so he stayed where he was.

"You three, come with me to hunt soul beasts. The rest of you stay put and wait for me to return," said the team leader, Da Zhuang, leading the three Soul Master men to capture the soul beast Blood Wolf.

The bearded man breathed a sigh of relief. He had initially thought there was something unusual happening on the outside, but it seemed they had worried unnecessarily; everything was normal.

He regretted it somewhat; he shouldn't have recruited so many people. The Great Soul Master and that young man were completely useless. The thought of having to pay so many Gold Soul Coins for nothing when he got back made the middle-aged man feel extremely distressed; it wasn't worth it at all.

"With a Soul King and three Soul Venerables, dealing with a thousand-year-old Soul Beast shouldn't be a problem. I should probably slip away soon," Chen Xuan muttered to himself, planning to quietly leave the group.

As for the promised three hundred gold soul coins, he did not accept them and would not accept them, so he felt no guilt.
