Douluo Continent: Transmigrated as Qian Renxue's follower, forced to become a god

Chapter 23 Eyes on the Branches

Tang San and the Dean entered the forest.

However, as they walked deeper and deeper, the surrounding environment rapidly darkened.

Tang San swallowed hard, then forced himself to stay alert.

I am the reincarnation of a god-king, what do I have to fear?

The dean looked around and said, "A friend of mine once visited this Sleeping Moon Forest and told me that it's constantly shrouded in mist, which creates its dark and damp environment. Tang San, don't worry."

"He's still just a child. He has the knowledge taught by the master, but he lacks some personal experience," the dean thought to himself.

A dark and damp environment? Isn't that exactly what I excel at?

Tang San was thinking about dampness, not darkness.

He couldn't help but puff out his chest.

I am the god of the sea! What do I have to be afraid of!

However, just as Tang San began to cheer himself up, a strange voice appeared in front of them.

"Don't panic!" The dean grabbed Tang San's arm.

Tang San's eyes flickered slightly as he used his Purple Demon Eye to look ahead. He saw a bush in front of them moving without any wind, and then slowly parting.

Tang San frowned, then with a slight movement of his right hand, he summoned his Blue Silver Grass martial soul.

But there was no response.

"..."

He smiled helplessly. He was only a level 20 Soul Master, and his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul had not yet undergone a second awakening, so naturally he didn't have the so-called Blue Silver Domain to help him explore the path.

So weak!

Tang San couldn't help but shout in his heart.

He cautiously released his first soul skill, connecting himself with the dean beside him, hoping to ensure his safety.

The dean did not stop him from doing so, which was the right thing to do.

"Dean, let's continue." Tang San recalled for a moment and then said, "I remember, the Demon Eye Tree should be just ahead."

"Okay." The dean nodded.

He is now in his fifties, with a strength level of forty-two. He is a Soul Master with a staff as his Martial Soul and one white and three yellow Soul Rings.

They continued forward, unaware that far, far behind them, a slender figure stood on a tree, staring intently at their backs.

The slender figure's eyes shimmered with a purple light, the true color of Shi Yueyi's eyes, like a purple Roland.

During this period of cultivation, her original martial soul also evolved its spiritual power, which may be one of the differences between her original martial soul and that of the Poison Undying of later generations.

The one that cannot be killed by poison might be more accurately described as a physical martial spirit.

Because both the brain and the eyes are part of the body.

Tang San and the Dean moved forward, and she followed, like a shadow falling into the far distance.

Shi Yueyi gently tapped her headset: "Grandpa Guangling, how are your preparations going?"

After a short while, the voice of the Radiant Douluo came: "That's about it, just a small rare treasure."

Shi Yueyi nodded gently.

That was her plan.

Generally speaking, plant-type soul beasts only possess a certain level of combat power after reaching a thousand years, while animal-type soul beasts do so within ten years.

In order to avoid attracting too much attention while still improving himself, Tang San chose a Demon Eye Tree that was about to reach the thousand-year level as his second spirit ring.

According to his understanding, this kind of spirit beast possesses wood attribute, poison attribute, and good mental strength.

However, it was precisely this extra spiritual power compared to other plant-based soul beasts that caused the problem.

At Shi Yueyi's suggestion, Guangling Douluo took out a rare medicinal herb brought from the Spirit Hall, named Tianhui Bamboo.

They overheard Tang San's conversation with the dean a few days ago, and then arrived at the forest ahead of schedule to begin preparations.

This caused the little demon tree, which was originally over nine hundred years old, to undergo a slight evolution.

The Demon Eye Tree, possessing a trace of spiritual power, absorbed that small rare treasure and thus transformed into a thousand-year-old soul beast.

This was also part of Shi Yueyi's plan. Knowing that Tang San's fourth ring was ten thousand years, she wanted to see if Tang San would choose to absorb a ring beyond his level this time.

A foul odor wafted out, causing the dean to pause for a moment.

"Is this the unpleasant smell that the Demon Eye Tree was talking about?" The dean couldn't help but cover his nose.

Tang San nodded and said, "That's right, this is a characteristic of the Demon Eye Tree."

"How come you seem completely unaffected?" the dean asked.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

"Because my teacher uses his martial soul to help me cultivate," Tang San said calmly. "Perhaps that's what makes my teacher unique; he lets me improve myself even in harsh environments."

The dean's face contorted slightly at the thought of Yu Xiaogang's arrogant words.

Only a great master could come up with the idea of ​​having his disciples cultivate diligently in such an environment!

He truly deserves to be called a master!

"A promising young man, a truly promising young man!" he exclaimed in admiration. "Today, no matter what, I must help you obtain this second spirit ring, otherwise I won't be able to explain it to the Master!"

Despite the unpleasant smell, the dean led Tang San forward.

A rustling sound came from above their heads, sounding like some creature was darting rapidly between the treetops.

Tang San looked around warily, but he was surprised to find that he had unknowingly walked into the thick fog of this forest. If it weren't for his Purple Demon Eye, he would probably have been lost here!

He gripped the blue silver grass connecting him and the dean warily, then said, "Dean, be careful!"

He gently stroked the Twenty-Four Bridges Under the Moonlit Night with his other hand, and some of the hidden weapons he had crafted silently slid into his palm.

He is currently just a Soul Master who has cultivated to level 20 using the Mysterious Heaven Technique, and without sufficient cultivation to support him, he can hardly use his hidden weapons.

A drop of viscous liquid fell onto the web of his hand; it was transparent, but—

It carries a hint of corrosive power!

Tang San looked up in shock and saw a tree branch above them, and on the branch, an eyeball was staring at them!

Then, he looked down at his feet with a hint of fear. The sound of water was gurgling. The viscous liquid had somehow flowed over the spot where he was standing and soaked the soles of his shoes. He felt as if he were standing on a thin layer of water!

"Damn it!" He immediately gathered his energy and began to circulate the level 20 soul power within his body.

As a result, they discovered that their ghostly presence was restricted by this viscous liquid!

"Tang San! Be careful! This might not be the hundred-year-old soul beast you mentioned!"

The dean also noticed something was wrong and exclaimed in surprise.

As soon as he finished speaking, the demonic eye on the tree branch in mid-air once again spewed out a sticky, glue-like liquid, which carried corrosive toxins!

"No!" Tang San cried out in terror.

In the original text, this dean was level 42, but he still went to great lengths, relying on his own martial soul that was incompatible with the Ghost Vine, to finally subdue it. Therefore, his spirit rings couldn't be too good. One white and three yellow rings were a favor.
