Douluo Continent: Inheriting the power to destroy life, the supreme Blue Silver Grass

The tremors on the ground grew more pronounced, and then a human-faced spider radiating purple light emerged from the darkness with swift strides. It was clear that it was injured and was trying to avoid something.

"boom!"

Before it could even react, a blue-silver spear flashing with black light pierced through its most vulnerable part of its abdomen and went straight through its body.

The Man-Faced Demon Spider collapsed to the ground, its body pierced by Chu Chen's long-concentrated attack, leaving it with almost no chance of survival. Only after confirming the Man-Faced Demon Spider's complete death did Chu Chen swiftly disappear into the darkness.

"Without the Eight Spider Lances, that little punk's life is going to be miserable from now on."

Chu Chen smiled, then turned and left.

He was somewhat concerned about the Eight Spider Lances' ability to devour, because the Eight Spider Lances could also extract life force, but that was all he was concerned about.

He didn't need to absorb that thing to devour life force; it was completely unnecessary. Besides, that thing needed to absorb the soul ring of the human-faced demon spider before it could appear!

Therefore, after confirming that he had killed the Human-Faced Demon Spider, Chu Chen was relieved...

Once someone is killed by him, no one else can absorb the soul ring, and therefore it is even less likely that the Eight Spider Soul Bone will appear.

Shortly after Chu Chen left, Tang San, who had been searching for Xiao Wu, also arrived at this place.

"The human-faced spider was recently killed?"

After examining the corpse of the Man-Faced Demon Spider, Tang San felt extremely regretful: "What a pity. If I had encountered this Man-Faced Demon Spider earlier, I could have used it as my third spirit ring."

"Damn it! Who killed the Human-Faced Demon Spider and why didn't they absorb it..."

At that moment, Tang San suddenly had a strange feeling.

It was as if he had just missed something important, causing him to lose a golden opportunity.

This feeling grew stronger and stronger, eventually making Tang San more and more upset. Now, he still hadn't found the spirit ring, and Xiao Wu had been captured. Tang San felt utterly exhausted.

He even began to wonder why the Titan Ape had captured Xiao Wu...

Could it be that he's in heat...?

Thinking of this, Tang San felt a strange panic, and some inappropriate images began to surface in his mind. Just imagining it made Tang San feel desperate.

Meanwhile, Chu Chen had already embarked on his journey to leave the Star Dou Great Forest.

At the same time, at the very core of the Starry Sky Forest, at the very bottom of that lake, brimming with surging life force and resembling a fairyland…

A massive figure, which had been in a deep sleep, its mind constantly splitting and then returning to calm, slowly opened its eyes, which were like emeralds and amethysts, and a deep voice echoed softly.

"What terrifying pressure from the dragon bloodline... What is that...?"

A black figure appeared not far away. It was a man with golden pupils. It was remarkable that he could appear in the core of the Star Dou Great Forest with such features.

That would only be the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, Di Tian.

"My lord, you..."

Di Tian's tone was excited. He sensed that his master's aura seemed to be reviving, so he didn't bother to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth emitted by the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm anymore, and instantly appeared here.

"My lord, have you finally woken up?" Di Tian asked once again.

The enormous dragon shadow finally regained some of its senses. Its mental state was very unstable, and it was on the verge of a mental breakdown. However, it still recognized Di Tian.

"Di Tian, ​​what was that aura just now? I have been asleep for far too long... My current strength is not enough to awaken me."

A deep voice sounded.

Her words, however, poured cold water on Di Tian, ​​causing the ecstatic look in his eyes to dim slightly.

"My lord, I also sensed that terrifying dragon's aura, but it wasn't the aura of a soul beast, so it could only be..."

The enormous dragon shadow remained silent for a moment, then continued, "Humans..."

"Di Tian, ​​go, find that human, and bring him here... The dragon aura within him... can help me revive..."

"Once I recover, humanity... will surely perish!"

Di Tian was taken aback, but he did not object to the giant dragon shadow's command. He respectfully replied, "Yes, my lord."

After saying that, Di Tian's figure disappeared, turning into a beam of light and rushing out. The moment he landed on the shore, an elegant figure slowly walked over behind him.

"Di Tian, ​​it's the Lord..." A gentle voice rang out. She was the Emerald Swan, Bi Ji, one of the Ten Ferocious Beasts.

"Bibhi, I must find that human. He can help our lord restore his power. Then, it will be time for our soul beast race to launch a counterattack against humanity." Di Tian could not hide his excitement.

Biji smiled slightly: "Go ahead, Di Tian."

……

a few days later.

Outside the bustling Heaven Dou City, Chu Chen, after a long journey, arrived here. Since obtaining his fourth soul ring and leaving the Star Dou Great Forest, he had come to Heaven Dou City to visit an old friend.

"This is…"

Chu Chen passed by the gate of an academy, and upon seeing the sign, he couldn't help but stop in his tracks.

"Blue Tyrant Academy, which will later become Shrek Academy, is hard to evaluate." Chu Chen didn't care and skipped over Blue Tyrant Academy.

When Blue Tyrant Academy was mentioned, a question arose in his mind: Liu Erlong's talent was not bad, and Bibi Dong's talent was even top-notch. What was wrong with these two that they would take a liking to that good-for-nothing Yu Xiaogang?

Especially Bibi Dong, she even let Yu Xiaogang read the Spirit Hall's secrets...

"What's the difference between this and defecting to the enemy? Yu Xiaogang is a scoundrel, so how could she possibly be any better than Bibi Dong?"

Upon entering Tiandou City, Chu Chen witnessed for the first time just how prosperous this capital city of the Tiandou Empire truly was. Everything here was incomparable to Notting City.

The atmosphere here is more lively, and of course... more subtle.

Beneath the seemingly peaceful and tranquil surface of Tiandou City, various forces are engaged in undercurrents of conflict, and the future holds some interesting developments.

"The Heaven Dou Royal Academy... So it's outside Heaven Dou City. Looks like I'm on the right track. I wonder if she still recognizes me after all these years."

Chapter 22: Reunion with Ye Lingling, the eager crowd ready to watch the drama unfold.

After passing through Tiandou City, Chu Chen headed towards the Tiandou Royal Academy. The area was surrounded by mountains and had beautiful scenery; it was indeed a bit extravagant to establish an academy there.

However, considering that this was, after all, a royal academy, filled with noble children, Chu Chen felt relieved.

"It's called a royal academy, but it's just a platform for the arrogance and domineering behavior of noble children."

Chu Chen arrived at the gate of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, but was stopped by a young man: "You... are you not a student of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy? Leave quickly, or I'll kick you out."

The gatekeeper, seeing Chu Chen's shabby clothes, guessed that the boy must not be of noble birth.

"I'm here to find someone."

Chu Chen didn't take it personally; he had anticipated this situation, but he didn't care.

"Looking for someone? Who could you possibly know here?" The gatekeeper waved his hand dismissively. "I bet you're just trying to sneak in, build connections, curry favor with the rich kids."

"Let me give you a piece of advice: don't get any crooked ideas. Look at your brother here, I used to try to curry favor with rich kids, and now they've put me here as a gatekeeper."

Chu Chen: "..."

Chu Chen couldn't help but roll his eyes. He was about to say something when he saw a refined young man slowly walking up behind him. The young man looked at Chu Chen and said, "Hello, I am Qin Ming, a teacher here. May I ask who you are looking for?"

"Teacher Qin." The gatekeeper hurriedly bowed, his expression slightly changing.

Qin Ming nodded, and Chu Chen then said to Qin Ming, "Ye Lingling."

"Lingling? You're looking for Lingling?"

Qin Ming frowned slightly, a hint of surprise appearing in his pupils. As the leader of the Royal Fighting Team, he was naturally very familiar with Ye Lingling, but how could Ye Lingling have male friends given her personality?

Ye Lingling rarely interacts with others. The only person she interacts with most is Dugu Yan. Even her teammates, such as Yu Tianheng, rarely have the opportunity to exchange more than a few words with her.

"Is the friend you're looking for really Ye Lingling?" Qin Ming asked to confirm.

Seeing Chu Chen nod, Qin Ming said, "Okay, then come with me. This is the first time I've heard that Lingling has male friends, so I'm a little surprised."

Chu Chen smiled; that was understandable.

He knew Ye Lingling's personality. If they hadn't met by chance many years ago, their relationship wouldn't be so good.

"Speaking of which... why didn't her family send anyone to hunt for spirit rings with her back then? Instead, they only sent two Soul Masters to take her, and she almost got killed by the Ghost Tiger..." Chu Chen wondered to himself.

Following Qin Ming, Chu Chen also entered the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. Most of the disciples here were dressed in gorgeous clothes and gathered together to chat about everything under the sun, but it was all empty talk.

Although, they don't need to consider anything.

As long as the Heavenly Dou Empire exists, the rights of these nobles will not collapse, and as the second generation of nobles, they will naturally have no worries about food and clothing.

"As long as the old aristocracy exists, the common people will never receive truly fair treatment... They treat human life like dirt and dominate the people with resources and power—that is the old aristocracy..."

Chu Chen chuckled twice.

At this moment, he and Qin Ming arrived near a training ground filled with rich spiritual energy. A young girl walked by and waved to Qin Ming, saying, "Teacher Qin!"

"Yanzi, where are Lingling and the others?" Qin Ming asked with a smile.

"They're at the training ground. Didn't you tell me we're going to the Great Soul Arena in Soto City in a few days? They're training there."

Dugu Yan explained, then her gaze fell on Chu Chen: "Teacher Qin, he is..."

"He's Lingling's friend, and he's here to see her," Qin Ming replied.

But Dugu Yan's expression became incredibly strange and interesting. Who? Whose friend? Ye Lingling's? Or a friend of the opposite sex?

Dugu Yan even wondered if she had misheard. Could it be that there was another Lingling at the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy?

"My expression was the same as yours just now, but I've already confirmed it. Chu Chen is indeed Lingling's friend," Qin Ming said with a smile.

Dugu Yan nodded blankly, then couldn't help but look Chu Chen up and down a few times. He was indeed quite handsome, but...

Led by Dugu Yan and Qin Ming, Chu Chen also arrived inside the simulated training ground. There, he immediately spotted Ye Lingling sitting alone in front of him, cultivating her soul power.

She was dressed in all black, still wearing that familiar black veil, her long, azure hair casually draped behind her. She seemed out of place among the others, always alone in a corner.

"Sigh, even I can't warm up to Lingling's personality. I don't believe this guy can really be Lingling's friend. It'll be funny when he runs into a wall."

Dugu Yan thought to herself.

Just then, everyone finished their cultivation and saw Qin Ming and Dugu Yan as they stood up. Ye Lingling was the last to get up, and her slightly empty but very beautiful eyes casually swept over everyone.

But suddenly her gaze shifted and fell on Chu Chen.

"..."

Ye Lingling was moved, her eyes sparkling as she stared at Chu Chen with a slightly dazed expression, her red lips moving slightly beneath her veil.
