Douluo Continent, Reborn: Yuhao and the Silver Dragon Keep Their Appointment

After entering the Spirit Ascension Chamber, Huo Yuhao felt a tingling sensation throughout his body, and his consciousness shifted to a forest. The sky was a uniform, soft pale blue, there was no sun, and the surrounding area was a primeval evergreen broad-leaved forest.

"Brother, I love it here!" Na'er skipped around, looking around, and even picked a small flower, placing it on her head. "Do you think brother looks handsome?"

Hearing Na'er's soft voice, Huo Yuhao was about to go over and help her tidy up when suddenly, he was momentarily distracted.

What's going on?

Huo Yuhao found himself unable to move; the only actions he could perform were speaking and blinking.

"Brother, why aren't you talking to me? What's wrong with you?" Na'er carefully walked over and took his hand, only to find that his hand was like a statue weighing tens of tons, completely still.

Na'er's face paled, and she called out cautiously again, "Brother, don't scare Na'er, what's wrong?"

"Na'er... I feel like I can't move."

"What are you two doing? Why are you dawdling?" Su Yuewan emerged from the bushes nearby.

"Sister Yuewan, my brother can't move, what should we do?" Na'er asked anxiously, her voice nasal.

Upon hearing Na'er's words, Su Yuewan's expression turned serious. She walked over, intending to take Huo Yuhao's hand, but her hand froze in mid-air. She glanced at Na'er, noticing the redness in Na'er's eyes, before finally taking her hand. Her eyes transformed into faint crescent moon patterns, and two purple spirit rings appeared beneath her feet, the second spirit ring glowing faintly.

With a whoosh, the two of them vanished from their original spot and reappeared on the other side. Su Yuewan asked breathlessly, "How are you? Can you still move?"

Huo Yuhao blinked, his long eyelashes drooping, looking somewhat forlorn. He said dryly, "Sister Yuewan, I still can't move. Could you please press the bracelet Teacher Shen gave me so I can get out?"

Su Yuewan nodded: "This is the best solution, after all, it's a problem with the equipment, and retaking the test is the only way."

"Brother, I'll be with you!" Na'er threw herself onto his back, feeling his body stiffen. "Na'er will retake the exam with you."

As soon as she finished speaking, she looked at her wrist.

Huh? Where's my exit button?

Su Yuewan frowned as she looked at Huo Yuhao's hands, then at her own.

Where did the exit button that Teacher Shen gave me go?

Just as they were wondering, something seemed to be wriggling in the lush grass around them, and a cold wind slowly blew on Huo Yuhao and the other two, making them feel a chill run down their spines.

Su Yuewan mustered her courage and walked over, wanting to see what was going on.

tear-

In an instant, a giant, entirely pink snake emerged. Its head was triangular, with crimson vertical pupils and a flower-shaped protrusion on its forehead. Su Yuewan was startled by the python and collapsed to the ground, her panic barely concealed. After all, girls are most afraid of strange reptiles, let alone this ugly and frightening snake.

The entire snake emerged from the grass. This snake was almost three meters long, with sharp, pinkish teeth, but its body had obvious scratches.

Su Yuewan was terrified, breaking out in a cold sweat. She shrank back timidly, without any intention of resisting. Her face was deathly pale, and fear took over. A spirit ring appeared beneath her feet, and she reached out, wildly attacking the snake's body with her spatial power.

The snake's body began to writhe strangely, and it hissed angrily. It opened its blood-red maw and lunged at her, trying to swallow her whole.

At this critical moment, a long spear covered in silver-white scales pierced its snake head.

The snake didn't react in time and was pierced by the gun. The gun remained stuck in the snake's head. At first, the giant snake only looked ferocious, but in an instant, its expression changed to unprecedented fear. The oppressive feeling of its bloodline made it want to submit, but before it could react, it turned into specks of starlight, transformed into a stream of light, and entered the tip of the gun.

"Interesting." A gentle voice sounded from outside the screen, "Elder Cai, this girl's martial spirit is very strange."

"Sect Master, I also find this strange. I feel that her martial soul is not just a weapon martial soul; I can sense the powerful suppression of that bloodline. I suspect that her martial soul may be of the same type as that of the ancient families, with a giant dragon sealed within her body... Moreover, her temperament and combat experience are too rich."

"Sister Yuewan, are you alright?" Na'er ran over and helped Su Yuewan up.

The silver dragon spear stuck in the ground also disappeared.

Su Yuewan stood up shakily, her legs still unsteady, her voice tinged with the lingering fear of being brought back from the brink of death: "Na'er, what was that thing? It was so scary..."

"That's a soul beast called the Mandragora Serpent, and it's about a thousand years old," Na'er replied softly. She helped Su Yuewan to Huo Yuhao's side and said in a childish voice, "Sister Yuewan, why don't you use your spatial power to hide Brother Yuhao? We can hide together, and if any soul beasts come, I'll protect you!"

Seeing Na'er confidently assuring him, Huo Yuhao could only suppress his doubts. Why did Na'er know so much? And wasn't Na'er's martial soul a bit too overpowered?

Su Yuewan nodded. Her combat experience was still too poor; she could only provide support for the team. However, just as the moon pattern appeared in her eyes, a roar came from not far away.

Awoo~

The howls of wolves echoed around them, and Huo Yuhao immediately sensed something was wrong. The datura snake had obvious claw marks on its body, clearly indicating it had escaped from a wolf pack. He looked closely and saw three wolves not far away, their bodies radiating flames. The one in the middle had the most intense flames and was significantly larger, appearing to be considerably bigger than the datura snake.

Most importantly, wolves are social animals with excellent teamwork and a keen sense of smell; danger is probably approaching...

Shen Yi watched from a god-like perspective on the soul-guided screen. The surrounding trees had been ignited by the fire wolves' breath, the crackling of the flames mingling with the howls of the wolves. A wave of heat washed over them, distorting even the air. More than twenty pairs of crimson eyes flickered in the firelight, like will-o'-the-wisps, slowly approaching from all directions, surrounding Huo Yuhao and the others. She couldn't help but ask again, "Elder Cai, are you really not going to activate the automatic exit for them? The pain they're suffering inside—if their brains can't handle it, they really could suffer brain death!"

Old Cai glanced at her but didn't say anything, his meaning was clear: you don't need to worry about it.

The gentle voice rang out again: "Shen Yi, don't worry. Although it's somewhat cruel, this machine has started a new experiment—it will automatically teleport them out only when the pain reaches its peak, when their hearts and brains can no longer bear it, or when they encounter fatal injuries inside the Spirit Ascension Chamber. Moreover, this experiment is only for Huo Yuhao, the boy. As the Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion, I guarantee that the others will be absolutely safe."

"Sister Yuewan, listen to me." Huo Yuhao looked at the tall trees nearby, which had turned into a sea of ​​fire. The temperature around him rose sharply, causing Na'er and Su Yuewan to break out in a sweat.

This time, however, Su Yuewan stood tall in front of Huo Yuhao, while Na'er's silver dragon spear was stuck in the ground, emanating a terrifying dragon aura that briefly suppressed the wolf pack, preventing them from advancing.

"Wait a minute, use your spatial power to pull Na'er away, don't worry about me. There's still half an hour left, you can definitely pass the test if you hide. But I don't need to take the test at all, Aunt Su said so. Listen to me this once, just run with Na'er. I can't move, I don't have an escape button, they just want to stimulate my brain to see if my martial soul can mutate again!"

"No!" Su Yuewan felt a chill run down her spine upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words. He spoke without a trace of fear; was he truly unafraid? "What will happen to Na'er if something happens to you?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Na'er seemed to sense something and turned her head with a trembling voice. Her silver hair was scattered in the air. Just a moment ago, she had been imposing, but now she looked pitiful. Na'er's hand holding the silver dragon spear trembled slightly. Her purple eyes were clearly gleaming with cold light, but they were also filled with tears. She opened her mouth, but it seemed that she was mute and could not speak. However, the despair in her eyes seemed to be able to see through Huo Yuhao.
