The Martial Soul Skeleton, in Douluo Continent's Bone-Changing Susanoo

Chapter 84 Tang San and Xiao Wu

The soul beast manuscript given by Yu Xiaogang records that the Shadow Lord is a dark soul beast with an ancient bloodline.

It is said that these kinds of soul beasts and the Flame Lord originally belonged to the same lineage, but due to different living environments, they developed different attributes.

The Fire Lord possesses top-tier fire and earth attributes. Therefore, the Shadow Lord should also have top-tier dual attributes, but currently only the dark attribute is recorded in the book, with the other attribute being little known.

The ancient book copy that Yu Xiaogang gave him even recorded the six attributes of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger so clearly, but he didn't know the complete attributes of the Shadow Lord.

This shows just how mysterious these kinds of spirit beasts are on the mainland.

For the past month, Xia Liang has been sending out a large number of Gastlys every day to conduct a thorough search.

The search area almost encompassed the entire outer region of the Star Dou Great Forest.

To this day, however, no trace of the Shadow Lord has been found.

That makes sense. Such a soul beast must be a top-tier existence, so how could it possibly stay in the outer area of ​​the forest?

Top-tier soul beasts possess a certain level of intelligence. Trying to find the Shadow Lord in the outer area is as absurd as encountering a 100,000-year-old soul beast in the outer area.

Just then, a deafening roar echoed from somewhere in the forest, and the Gastly hiding in the nearby shadows was annihilated by the terrifying roar.

This situation occurred when we encountered the Titan Snow Demon King in the far north.

Whether in terms of momentum or the energy vibrations it generated, the roar from afar was much weaker than that of the Titan Snow Demon King, but without a doubt, the soul beast that emitted the roar was definitely of top-tier bloodline.

Xia Liang was surprised that such a powerful top-tier soul beast had appeared in the outer area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest.

Is it a Titan Ape?

Xia Liang then recalled encountering Zhu Zhuqing being chased two or three months ago.

Based on the current timeline, Zhu Zhuqing should have joined Shrek Academy, just like Tang San and Xiao Wu.

The roar just now was probably the angry roar of the Titan Giant Ape, a 100,000-year-old soul beast.

In the original story, Zhao Wuji led Tang San and the Shrek Academy members into the Star Dou Great Forest. Xiao Wu's presence attracted the Titan Giant Ape, leading to a battle.

Having searched for soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest for so long, it's not surprising that I caught up with this part of the story.

After consuming a food-type soul skill that shielded him from detection by his aura and mental power, Xia Liang retrieved the tent and the bone dragon dagger that had been placed nearby.

Blue Silver Emperor activated his right leg bone skill, Flight, and flew towards the direction from which the beast's roar came.

As a 100,000-year-old soul skill, the soul power consumed during flight is extremely small. Unless there is intentional acceleration, it can basically achieve near-zero soul power consumption.

It flew for about ten minutes.

A terrifying aura entered the range of his mental perception, and Xia Liang instantly felt a gravitational force acting on him, causing Fei Chong's body to suddenly sink.

A massive figure flew over his head. Looking up, he saw that it was a giant ape, as large as a mountain, its entire body made of lava, constantly spewing out extreme heat.

The gravity restriction we just experienced was released by this giant ape; it's similar to a domain skill.

Xia Liang landed on a tree branch and stared at the giant ape passing overhead. His clairvoyance penetrated the leaves and other obstacles, and he saw a girl with rabbit ears and a scorpion braid sitting on the giant ape's shoulder.

Xia Liang had seen her at Notting Academy before; he wouldn't mistake her. The girl sitting on the giant ape's shoulder was Xiao Wu.

That giant ape was indeed the Titan Giant Ape, a 100,000-year-old soul beast.

With a single leap, the Titan Ape was already hundreds of meters away. After several jumps, it had disappeared from the range that Xia Liang's mental power could perceive.

With the gravity that had restricted his movements lifted, Xia Liang's body trembled slightly. Facing the pressure released by a 100,000-year-old soul beast with his current level 40 soul power was still a bit too much for him.

According to the original plot, Tang San will go to find the Titan Giant Ape and Xiao Wu.

Therefore, if you want to intercept the external soul bone of the Human-Faced Demon Spider, you only need to wait in a place that Tang San is bound to pass by.

Unfortunately, it's daytime. The Haunters can't begin their search for Soul Beasts.

Otherwise, they could directly find the human-faced demon spider mentioned in the original work.

According to the original description, the human-faced demon spider was injured by the couple, the peerless dragon and snake, and its cultivation level was around two thousand, making it easy to distinguish.

At this moment, a young man dressed in light blue outfit, who looked to be only a teenager, was flying in the air with the illusory colorful wings on his back.

Because it flew overhead, Xia Liang could clearly see that the young man in the light blue outfit was not in good physical condition, as if he had been through a major battle.

When Xia Liang saw the young man in the light blue outfit with a belt inlaid with twenty-four jade stones around his waist, he confirmed that this person was Tang San.

They once lived together in Dormitory 7 of Notting Academy for a few days. Although so many years have passed, Tang San and Xiao Wu have only grown taller, and their appearances haven't changed much.

With the ability to shield himself from spiritual detection thanks to his soul skill, Xia Liang felt he could follow behind Tang San.

Once the Human-Faced Demon Spider appears, they can then use the pretext of helping Tang San to obtain the opportunity to acquire the external soul bone, the Eight Spider Lances.

As he slowly fell from the sky, Tang San grabbed onto a large tree beside him, panting heavily. At this moment, the colorful wings on his back had completely disappeared, and he no longer had the ability to fly.

Throughout the flight, Tang San had pushed his Purple Demon Eyes to their limit in order to find the Titan Giant Ape.

But things didn't go as planned; despite straining his eyes, he couldn't find any trace of the Titan Ape.

Tang San was unwilling. He was truly unwilling; he couldn't understand why the Titan Giant Ape had chosen to kidnap his younger sister, Xiao Wu.

The lively Xiao Wu recognizes herself as her older brother and follows him silently, with a charming appearance.

Every scene of him spending time with Xiao Wu flashed through his mind, causing Tang San excruciating pain.

Although he could no longer fly, Tang San did not give up. He tried his best to move forward in the direction he felt, hoping to find any clues about the Titan Giant Ape or Xiao Wu.

His soul power was gradually recovering with the help of the recovery sausage, but his physical strength was already somewhat exhausted. He had to stop and catch his breath for a while.

Looking around at the terrain, Tang San sat down against a big tree, took out a water bag from the Twenty-Four Bridges Under the Moonlight, and drank it in large gulps, not even noticing that his body was getting wet.

His breathing gradually calmed down. Tang San dared not cultivate, for no one knew if a spirit beast might suddenly attack him. He only wanted to wait for his strength to recover somewhat before continuing his search for Xiao Wu's whereabouts.

As Tang San finished drinking a sip of water, Xia Liang, who was 300 meters away, enhanced his mental power and used his penetrating vision to scan the surroundings.

According to the original plot, a human-faced demon spider will soon appear to ambush Tang San, and he is very likely to be within the attack range of this human-faced demon spider, so he has to take precautions.

Suddenly, a strange sound caught Tang San's attention.

The rustling sound was like someone changing clothes, or like the rustling of leaves.

With growing vigilance, Tang San slowly stood up and cautiously looked in the direction from which the sound came.

Tang San slowly tilted his pale purple eyes to the left, and what appeared in his Purple Demon Eyes' field of vision was a strange giant spider that was over three meters long. It was this one glance that allowed Tang San to recognize its species. Its name was the Human-Faced Demon Spider, a kind of extremely cunning and evil soul beast that devours life.
