Douluo Continent: The Myriad Body of Truth and Falsehood

Chapter 44 Self-Healing Ability

Eerie lights and shadows flickered throughout the forest as the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear swept across like a small mountain, flattening nearby trees and turning the area into a chaotic wasteland. Dark gold claws, over five meters long, descended from the sky, their sharp edges aimed directly at the green figure.

But Bai Xu neither dodged nor evaded, seemingly wanting to test his limits. With his arms above his head and his legs slightly bent, he directly brought down the powerful and sharp golden claws.

boom!

The shockwave swept across the wasteland, raising clouds of dust.

Gu Yue hid behind a tree, holding his breath in utter astonishment.

At the age of about ten, Bai Xu solidly withstood the Dark Gold Terror Claw. The immense force caused the ground beneath his feet to crack, and even his ankles to sink into the earth, but the green figure remained steadfast.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear roared, its body radiating a faint golden light. It unleashed its soul power once more, its strength surging, creating an impact on its right claw, aiming to slam Bai Xu into the ground and crush him into mincemeat.

"That's about it." Bai Xu murmured softly. His first soul ring flashed, his figure spun, and his speed increased dramatically. He instantly escaped the suppression of the Dark Gold Terror Claw, causing it to miss its target.

boom!

With a muffled thud, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear smashed the spot to pieces, causing Gu Yue, who was in the distance, to feel a slight tremor. The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear truly lived up to its reputation as a race that could rival the Dragon Clan, as it contained a trace of Behemoth bloodline, making it extremely terrifying.

"Roar~~~" The beast roared deeply. The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear crouched down, its fur standing on end and turning even darker. It bared its teeth, ready for battle, sensing a great threat.

The green figure activated its first soul skill, leaving several afterimages in its wake, and rapidly approached the giant bear. However, the giant bear's eyes were also sharp, and relying on its instincts from years of combat, it slashed down with its claws to intercept the approaching figure.

But in that instant, the situation changed drastically. Bai Xu's right hand formed a claw, and the green claw shadow could extend several meters. It was as if he had anticipated the giant bear's movements. He stopped abruptly to dodge the bear's claw, and then instantly countered, blinding the dark gold dinosaur's right eye with a single blow.

"Aww~~~"

The excruciating pain made it roar, and it couldn't help but rampage through the forest again. It took a while to recover, and its blood surged, making it extremely furious. Its left eye scanned the surroundings, looking for its enemy.

But the next second, a light flashed in his left eye, and his left eye went blind again. The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear lost its vision and fled in a sorry state. At first, the treacherous human fought him in close combat, and the two had their share of victories and defeats. But suddenly the human's attacks became treacherous and cunning, targeting his vulnerable points. His eyes were the first to be harmed.

Without a line of sight, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was like a headless fly, bumping around aimlessly and attacking randomly without finding a target. When its strength was exhausted, it could only die with regret.

Gu Yue was shocked and amazed by Bai Xu's incredible Martial Soul stats. When she was at the second ring, she faced the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, and if she didn't use her trump cards, she would have been in grave danger. But Bai Xu's stats matched those of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, and after using his Soul Rings, he was able to defeat it. He was simply too strong.

The dark golden bear vanished, leaving behind a piece of dark golden bone with golden cloud patterns. It seemed to be forged from an alloy, yet it did not feel like metal; its texture was much stronger than that of metal.

"A Hundred-Year-Old Dark Gold Terror Claw." Bai Xu picked it up and subconsciously looked at the dark gold terror claw that had exploded after Xiong Jun's death in his left palm. Compared to it, it was a bit insignificant.

"It's finally over." Gu Yue sighed and slowly walked up to Bai Xu, explaining, "This should be the price the Spirit Pagoda paid to create this Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. It's a hundred-year-old soul bone. This Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear should be the guardian of the primary Spirit Ascension Platform, preventing soul masters from entering the intermediate Spirit Ascension Platform."

"Will you absorb it?" Bai Xu handed the Dark Gold Terror Claw to Gu Yue.

Gu Yue flatly refused: "I don't need it. You'd better absorb it quickly. It shouldn't be taken out of the Spirit Ascension Platform. This thing is very valuable to the Spirit Ascension Platform."

Bai Xu naturally wouldn't absorb it anymore, nor was it worthwhile to bring the Fruit of Myriad Deeds into reality. Compared to that, the Ascension Platform deep within was far more attractive.

He casually put away the dark gold claw and said to Gu Yue, "Let's go, let's go deeper."

Gu Yue didn't mind, but she did remind him, "If we go any further, there might be ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts appearing, and I might not be of any use then."

monitoring room

The chilling aura pressed down on the staff inside the Spirit Pagoda, who were sweating profusely as they patiently explained, "Teacher Wu, we've encountered an emergency and need to report to the Spirit Pagoda for further instructions."

Wu Changkong ignored everything, released his martial spirit aura, closed his eyes and lowered his head: "I only know that my student has not violated any of the regulations related to the Spirit Ascension Platform. Even if he has really reached the intermediate Spirit Ascension Platform, that is his own ability. It is your freedom to report it, but you have to wait for my student to come out."

This was an opportunity. This battle completely changed Wu Changkong's impression of Bai Xu. He was indeed qualified to participate in this year's Shrek Academy student application and had a very high chance of being admitted.

He had originally planned to let Bai Xu train with Tang Wulin and the others for a few more years, but now it seemed that this might hinder Bai Xu's growth. Besides, the boy's dream was to join Shrek Academy, and he couldn't very well stop him.

Since that's the case, then we have no choice but to help him out, obtain his registration qualification as a Shrek Academy student in the Tianhai Alliance Grand Competition, and then send him into Shrek Academy.

"However, once the two enter the intermediate spirit ascension platform area, the monitoring equipment may become ineffective, and we will be unable to monitor the safety of the two students."

"It doesn't matter, they can make their own judgment."

Faced with Wu Changkong, who was at the Soul Emperor level, the staff looked at each other in bewilderment, none of them daring to step forward. In the end, they had no choice but to sit back down and continue operating the equipment.

Bai Xu and Gu Yue walked through the lush world for a long time, feeling that it was not much different from the primary Spirit Ascension Platform, except that it was too quiet here.

After walking several kilometers, the two did not encounter a single soul beast.

Bai Xu activated his Martial Soul throughout, sensing everything around him.

Gu Yue said, "The vitality here is much stronger than that of the primary Spirit Ascension Platform. You should have reached the intermediate Spirit Ascension Platform. The monitoring equipment of the Spirit Transmission Tower should no longer be effective here. You can unleash your full potential here."

"Really?" Bai Xu was skeptical, but decided against it after thinking about it.

The latest novel is first published here!

If the secret were to be exposed, there would be too many suspicious points about him, and it wouldn't be worth it just to improve his soul.

Gu Yue ignored Bai Xu's doubts and continued, "In this situation, we have likely entered the territory of a thousand-year-old or ten-thousand-year-old soul beast, which is why soul beasts are extremely rare here."

Before he could finish speaking, a strange spear suddenly pierced through the ground and went straight through Bai Xu's abdomen.

!! ?

Despite suffering such a severe injury, Bai Xu was still able to move. He activated his first spirit ring and hurriedly detached himself from the sharp spider legs, rolling all the way to the bottom of the tree, enduring the pain as he clutched the wound on his abdomen.

Gu Yue's face showed a slight look of shock. She flashed to Bai Xu's side, her light element spreading out, attempting to heal Bai Xu's injuries.

At the same time, the culprit emerged from the ground beneath the cave. Surprisingly, it was even smaller than the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear we had just encountered. It had eight spider legs and some yellow filaments around its body, which appeared to be its spider web.

"A 40,000-year-old cave spider!? It seems your luck is really not good." Gu Yue used light element to cover Bai Xu's abdominal wound with both hands, looking at him, hoping to see some hesitation in his eyes.

Surprisingly, Bai Xu grabbed Gu Yue's healing hands with his right hand. The light dissipated, and green flames gradually flickered, slowly covering the parts that had just been pierced.

The clothes were torn, exposing the intact skin underneath.

"No injury." Gu Yue thought it was the effect of the Jade Lotus Immortal Herb, but in fact, such injuries would be healed regardless of whether there was an immortal herb or not. Even if a knife cleaved half of Bai Xu's brain, he wouldn't die unless the entire head was cut off.

The Karma Martial Soul is born with a powerful self-healing attribute.

This is the charm of an all-around, flawless, hexagonal martial soul.
