Chapter 19: Meet Dugu Bo again! The battle of the strong! The peerless dragon and snake! Opportunity!
Star Dou Great Forest, deep in the outer area.
Lu Yu had been here for three days, but he still hadn't found a suitable target.
He had encountered a few soul beasts whose abilities matched the Fantian Seal, but their ages were not satisfactory.
Lu Yu's requirement for the age of the third soul ring was more than 7,000 years, not exceeding 8,000 years!
Soul beasts with such cultivation were already considered strong in the outer area of the Star Dou Great Forest, and it was difficult to meet them.
In the middle area of the Star Dou Great Forest, ten-thousand-year soul beasts frequently appeared, and the risk factor increased exponentially.
If he encountered a soul beast of more than 50,000 years, or a soul beast with super blood, or a group-type soul beast, even Lu Yu was not sure he could escape unscathed.
"There are too few high-age soul beasts in the outer area, but the middle area is full of dangers..."
Lu Yu stopped and looked forward, a little hesitant.
After a moment, he suddenly shook his head and laughed, muttering: "The road to becoming strong is full of dangers. If you don't dare to face danger, how can you reach the top?"
Although he was reborn, Lu Yu had learned from his previous life and was cautious in everything he did. Now he finally untied his knot.
Just when Lu Yu was about to enter the middle area, he suddenly felt a violent fluctuation of soul power.
As early as when he entered the Star Dou Forest, he had added a Shangqing Sensing Talisman to himself. With the effect of the Shangqing Sensing Talisman and his strong spiritual power, his perception was extremely sharp.
Moreover, the soul power fluctuated violently, and it was obvious that strong people were fighting.
Was it the cannibalism between soul beasts, or the battle between soul masters and soul beasts?
Lu Yu's heart moved, and he quietly moved toward the direction where the soul power fluctuation came from.
From a distance, Lu Yu cast a Form-Stealing Talisman and a Breath-Retaining Talisman on himself.
When he was a hundred meters away, he stopped, jumped onto a big tree, and looked into the distance.
Then, Lu Yu was stunned.
Because he actually knew one of the parties in the battle!
Dugu Bo!
Although Lu Yu did not meet Dugu Bo the last time he came to the Star Dou Great Forest, when Dugu Bo appeared behind him, he had already "seen" the other party's appearance through his spiritual power.
The people fighting Dugu Bo were an old man and an old woman.
The old woman looked to be in her sixties or seventies, with a head of white hair combed very neatly, sharp eyes, and a three-meter-long serpent cane in her right hand.
Around the old woman, six soul rings — two yellow, three purple, and one black — shone brightly!
Next to the old woman was a tall and thin old man. The old man was about the same age, with a head full of silver hair, holding a bright silver dragon-head cane over four meters long.
Around the old man were eight soul rings — two yellow, three purple, and three black!
Although he had never seen them before, Lu Yu recognized the identities of the old man and the old woman at a glance...
Peerless Dragon and Snake!
Looking at the two sides fighting constantly, Lu Yu couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The cooperation between the Peerless Dragon and Snake couple was too tacit. Although their opponent was Dugu Bo, a Titled Douluo, the two of them were not at a disadvantage for the moment.
Of course, Dugu Bo was a Titled Douluo after all, and this stalemate would not last long. The two would probably be defeated soon.
Lu Yu noticed that a dying soul beast was lying on the ground not far from the area where they fought.
It was a dragon-type soul beast, and from the appearance, it was six points similar to the dragons of the Douluo world — it was obvious that it had a very high dragon bloodline!
Dragon bloodline is the noblest bloodline among soul beasts. Even if it only has a trace of dragon blood, it is enough to make a soul beast a leader among those of the same cultivation.
If the dragon bloodline is strong enough, it can allow oneself to produce a certain degree of dragonization, and even become invincible among peers, or even like the Golden Haired Lion Mastiff, possess combat power far exceeding peers.
Lu Yu knew this soul beast. It was called the Wind-Thunder Winged Dragon Bat and had a thin dragon bloodline.
But looking at the appearance of this Wind-Thunder Winged Dragon Bat, it was obvious that it had undergone some fate, which caused its bloodline to mutate and evolve. Its wings had completely become dragon-like, and it even had dragon horns and a pair of dragon claws!
The soul ring produced by a soul beast can only be absorbed by the killer.
The battle between Dugu Bo and the Peerless Dragon and Snake was obviously for the soul ring of this Wind-Thunder Winged Dragon Bat.
But what puzzled Lu Yu was that
Dugu Bo had reached the realm of Titled Douluo and no longer needed soul rings. Moreover, Lu Yu judged that the cultivation of this Wind-Thunder Winged Dragon Bat had exceeded 50,000 years. Therefore, Dugu Bo could not possibly let Dugu Yan absorb this soul ring.
If that was the case, why were the two sides fighting?
At this moment, the Dragon Lord Meng Shu, who was fighting with Dugu Bo, suddenly said, "Your Majesty! You are a Titled Douluo, but this soul ring is useless to you!"
"We are willing to pay a price that will satisfy you. Please give us this soul beast!"
Dugu Bo did not give him any face and snorted, "Who said that Titled Douluo don't need soul rings?"
"Can't I take this soul beast back for someone else?"
Listening to the conversation between the two sides, Lu Yu understood a little.
It was probably Dugu Bo who discovered this soul beast, and one of the Peerless Dragon and Snake had reached a bottleneck and needed to obtain a soul ring, and happened to have taken a fancy to this Wind-Thunder Winged Dragon Bat.
While thinking, Lu Yu suddenly noticed that the soul beast was already on the verge of death, but it was staring in one direction, with unwillingness in its eyes.
Lu Yu's heart moved. Thinking of the bloodline evolution of this Wind-Thunder Winged Dragon Bat, his heart couldn't help but heat up.
When ordinary soul beasts face death, they feel fear or become mad.
But this Wind-Thunder Winged Dragon Bat seemed to have some unfulfilled wish...
Could it be that...
the opportunity to transform its dragon bloodline had not been completely digested by it?
Thinking of this, Lu Yu quietly retreated a hundred meters, and then moved in the direction where the Wind-Thunder Winged Dragon Bat had been looking.
After walking a few hundred meters, with the help of the Shangqing Sensing Talisman, he suddenly heard a low roar.
The sound was sharp and harsh, but somewhat similar to a dragon's roar.
Lu Yu's eyes lit up. He followed the sound and found a hidden cave entrance.
Without saying a word, he went straight into the cave and saw a fruit tree at the deepest part of the cave.
The fruit tree was more than one meter tall, with a straight trunk and a golden-red fruit hanging on a branch.
The halo under the skin of the fruit flowed, as if a tiny dragon was cruising inside it.
The soil under the fruit tree was dark red, as if it was soaked in blood.
Lu Yu showed a smile on his face. It seemed that his guess was right!
Just as he was about to pick the fruit, a low roar suddenly came from the top of the cave.
Looking up, he saw a miniature version of the Wind-Thunder Winged Dragon Bat hanging upside down above the cave.
Compared to the one outside, this Wind-Thunder Winged Dragon Bat had a larger dragon-like transformation on its body, and even grew a dragon tail, with only a small part of its torso remaining unchanged.
Lu Yu immediately understood that the Wind-Thunder Winged Dragon Bat outside was unwilling to die not because of an unconsumed fruit — but because of its cub!
