Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Emperor, Unifying the Continent!

Chapter 112 Ma Xiaotao in a coma, Zhang Lexuan in a state of lethargy!

There are thirteen inner court students participating in this Soul Hunting Operation. All of them are at least Soul King level. Some of them do not need to acquire Soul Rings; they are simply teaming up to hunt Soul Beasts.

And it was this very team that encountered a 100,000-year-old soul beast!

Aside from Xuanzi, who led the team, the highest cultivation level among the thirteen inner court students was Zhang Lexuan, who was at level eighty.

The strength of a 100,000-year-old soul beast is comparable to that of a Title Douluo among humans!

A group of inner court students who haven't even reached the Soul Douluo level are facing a Title Douluo-level powerhouse, especially in the Star Dou Great Forest. They have virtually no chance of winning!

And judging from the inner court disciple that Xuanzi just sent over, the casualties this time were extremely heavy!

Those who were barely clinging to life were brought back, but what about the dead?

Xuanzi kept his head down, his messy hair obscuring his eyes and face, making it impossible to see his expression.

"When I arrived, four inner court students had already died..."

Four inner court students have died!

Every inner court student is destined to cultivate to the level of Soul Saint or Soul Douluo in the future, and some with exceptional talent may even reach the level of Title Douluo! Yet, in this simple Soul Hunting operation, four of them have already died!

There aren't many disciples in the inner courtyard!

Elder Mu did not ask if there were any casualties later. If Xuanzi caused casualties to the 100,000-year-old soul beast after arriving, then his cultivation of level 98 would have been in vain!

Xu Tianming, who was standing to the side, narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard the number.

If he remembered correctly, the original number of deaths in this Soul Hunting Operation should have been eight, with a total of twelve instead of thirteen.

Only four inner court disciples have died, a reduction of half compared to the original casualties!

Xu Tianming did not wait on Poseidon Island, but instead went along the road between Shrek Academy and Star Dou Great Forest to meet Zhang Lexuan and the others.

About twenty miles from Shrek City, Xu Tianming encountered Zhang Lexuan and her group.

awful!

There were thirteen people in total. Xuanzi returned with one seriously injured person. Four people died, and there were still eight people in the team.

Among the eight people, Zhang Lexuan carried the unconscious Ma Xiaotao on her back. Her clothes were covered in blood, and she looked somewhat dazed. Her steps were unsteady as she walked.

Behind him, the other six people also looked disheveled, each with exhaustion, sadness, and a hint of lingering fear from escaping death.

Even though they had rested for a while in the town outside the Star Dou Great Forest, the experiences of the past few days still made it difficult for them to relax.

Facing a 100,000-year-old soul beast head-on would be terrifying for them!

This is a terrifying experience that will be etched into your soul and never be forgotten!

"Dawn..."

Zhang Lexuan saw Xu Tianming running towards her. She slowed her pace, and an indescribable feeling welled up in her heart.

She almost never saw Xu Tianming again.

"Sister Lexuan, let me do it."

Xu Tianming took the unconscious Ma Xiaotao from Zhang Lexuan's hands. When he reached out and grasped Zhang Lexuan's hand, he guided the Life Gold and sent a wisp of life energy into Zhang Lexuan's body.

Zhang Lexuan felt a cool sensation quickly spread from her palms throughout her body, relieving her physical and mental fatigue.

The comfortable feeling almost made her fall asleep immediately.

Her body swayed slightly. Xu Tianming supported Ma Xiaotao's buttocks with one hand and reached out to support Zhang Lexuan with the other, saying in a deep voice, "Sister Lexuan, let's go back to the academy!"

He glanced at the status of the others in the group, but instead of speeding up, he continued walking towards Shrek Academy at the group's original pace.

Soon, the group saw the outline of Shrek City.

In the space where they could see Shrek City, all the girls in the group except Zhang Lexuan cried, and the boys were also moved to tears.

Just two weeks ago, they were enthusiastically forming a team to hunt soul beasts deep in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Half a month later, four of their companions had turned into cold corpses, and some of their companions couldn't even be pieced together into complete bodies!

Those few were simply lucky to have survived in the Star Dou Great Forest.

"I'm back, I'm finally back..."

For a moment, sobs echoed in Xu Tianming's ears.

Xu Tianming, carrying Ma Xiaotao on his back and holding Zhang Lexuan's hand, looked at the others and sighed softly.

He had never personally experienced the fear of facing a 100,000-year-old soul beast, and could not empathize with their despair, but he could tell from their state that the process was probably more dangerous than he had imagined.

Amidst sobs, the group returned to Shrek Academy.

Elder Zhuang immediately checked everyone's physical condition, and the power of the Tree of Life quickly healed their wounds and relieved their physical and mental fatigue.

However, the emotional trauma will likely not heal in the short term.

On Poseidon Island, Xu Tianming looked at Elder Zhuang and asked in a deep voice, "Elder Zhuang, how are Sister Lexuan and Sister Xiaotao doing?"

He had already examined the two women's bodies when he received them outside Shrek City, but he was never as professional as Elder Zhuang when it came to treatment.

Elder Zhuang said softly, "Le Xuan is alright. Her cultivation has broken through to level 80, and she has also absorbed a 100,000-year soul ring and a 100,000-year soul bone. Her wounds have also been healed, but she has some mental problems. It should have occurred when she absorbed the 100,000-year soul ring. There may be some aftereffects, and she will need to rest for a while."

Zhang Lexuan's cultivation level was the highest in the team besides Elder Xuan, and she had also absorbed the energy of a 100,000-year soul ring and a 100,000-year soul bone. Her physical body was fine, but absorbing the 100,000-year soul ring and 100,000-year soul bone in that environment obviously had a certain impact on Zhang Lexuan's spirit.

Theoretically speaking, Zhang Lexuan, who has eight rings, is capable of absorbing a 100,000-year soul ring, but that is an extremely difficult thing in itself, not to mention that in that special environment, the soul impact generated by absorbing a 100,000-year soul ring would be even stronger!

Clearly, Zhang Lexuan had no injuries, but her spirits were extremely low, and that was the reason.

"What about Sister Xiaotao?"

After learning about Zhang Lexuan's situation, Xu Tianming felt a slight sense of relief.

If one's spirit is weak, it can be nourished with the aura of the Metal of Life. The academy also has other methods to nourish the sea of ​​spirit, so it's not a big problem.

"Xiao Tao's situation is a bit troublesome. The seventh ring is a process of further integration between a beast spirit master and their own spirit. Xiao Tao's spirit is the Evil Fire Phoenix. The deeper the integration, the stronger the evil fire will be. In addition, Xiao Tao cannot hold back against a 100,000-year-old spirit beast. Under the full force of her attack, she was backfired by the evil fire... This requires you, Tianming, to handle..."

"Old Zhuang said in a deep voice."

"The problem is, Xiao Tao is currently unconscious and unable to help you suppress the evil fire. In other words, you'll have to suppress the evil fire of the Evil Fire Phoenix, whose cultivation has already reached the Soul Saint level, all by yourself!"
