Chapter 91 Reunion (3)
Chapter 91 Reunion (3)
Mu Chen was surrounded by three clones created by Qian Yuhan's "Shadow Clone of Light". However, facing such a dangerous situation, he showed no fear, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, as if these shadow clones were nothing more than insignificant existences. A dazzling blue light was emitted from his left arm.
Just then, Qian Yuhan's eyes suddenly narrowed to slits, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face as he exclaimed, "This is... a soul bone?!"
Before this, Qian Yuhan only had one external soul bone—the Wings of Light—that she was lucky enough to obtain from the Golden-Winged Lion of Light. But who could have imagined that Mu Chen, who already possessed the right arm bone of the Earth King, would actually acquire a left arm bone after this winter break!
At this moment, Qian Yuhan couldn't help but exclaim inwardly, "My goodness! What kind of luck does this guy have? He already possesses two soul bones!!"
……
Speaking of acquiring this soul bone, it was truly a case of getting it while sitting down. During winter break, Mu Chen accompanied his father, Golden Crocodile Douluo, to another extremely mysterious and little-known soul beast forest on the Douluo Continent for cultivation. This forest was called the Panlong Great Forest! The Panlong Great Forest was not a place known to ordinary people; even those soul masters of slightly higher levels had only vaguely heard of it. Under normal circumstances, soul masters dared not easily set foot here, simply because the level of danger here was astonishing. It was no exaggeration to say that the danger of the entire forest was comparable to the most core area of the Star Dou Great Forest. Rumor had it that the number of soul beasts over 100,000 years old in this forest was astonishing!! Because there were so many 100,000-year-old soul beasts, one might accidentally encounter one, and then…
Fortunately, with the powerful Golden Crocodile Douluo protecting his beloved son, Mu Chen was able to fight without restraint, without worrying about his life. He always actively chose various soul beasts as opponents for fierce battles, but never killed them all. His unexpected encounter with the Gale Wolf was purely a coincidence. At the time, Mu Chen had just finished a fierce battle with a soul beast with nearly ten thousand years of cultivation and was sitting in an open space, meditating and adjusting his breathing to recover his soul power. Just then, a Gale Wolf with over twenty thousand years of cultivation quietly appeared nearby and immediately spotted Mu Chen meditating.
In that instant, the figure that had been hidden in the darkness approached silently like a ghost, attempting a deadly sneak attack. However, none of this escaped the sharp eyes of Golden Crocodile Douluo. He snorted coldly, swung his arm, and with the force of a thunderbolt, slapped the unfortunate fellow hard across the face.
With a loud "bang," the poor Gale Wolf was instantly smashed into a pile of minced meat, blood and flesh splattered everywhere, a gruesome sight. Surprisingly, a spirit ring emitting an eerie black light slowly emerged from the pile of flesh.
At the same time, something even more incredible happened. A short while later, accompanied by a slight tremor, a soul bone shimmering with a mysterious blue light slowly emerged from the pile of flesh. It seemed to possess life, floating lightly in the air, radiating an alluring aura.
Seeing this, Golden Crocodile Douluo nodded slightly, patted Mu Chen who was meditating to the side, and then winked at Mu Chen, signaling him to quickly step forward and take the precious soul bone.
Upon receiving the signal, Mu Chen was initially stunned: This is... a soul bone?! Oh my god!! My dad wants me to absorb it. Hurry up, hurry up...
Not daring to delay, he quickly rushed towards the soul bone. Meanwhile, Golden Crocodile Douluo stood still, intently protecting him to prevent any unexpected situations from occurring.
Mu Chen approached the soul bone, took a deep breath, and then carefully stretched out both hands, tightly grasping the soul bone in his grasp. He then began to guide his soul power into the soul bone, following the methods he had learned, preparing to absorb it. The entire process went exceptionally smoothly; in no time, the 20,000-year-old Gale Wolf left arm bone had completely merged into Mu Chen's body.
……
Back in the Soul Arena of Mingyue Community.
Mu Chen stood still, when suddenly a powerful gust of air surged around him, as if an invisible hand was stirring the air. This airflow rapidly coalesced into a massive cyan tornado, which began to spin wildly around Mu Chen. As time passed, the cyan tornado grew stronger and stronger, its size continuously expanding.
Just then, a deafening roar erupted, and the azure tornado, as if having gathered enough power, suddenly burst open. Instantly, a fierce wind howled, sand and stones flew, and sharp gusts of wind rushed out in all directions like wild horses. These gusts of wind were like a pack of ferocious wolves, opening their blood-red mouths and revealing sharp fangs, aggressively pouncing on everything around them.
It turned out that this was the skill Mu Chen possessed—the Demon Wolf Storm—granted to him by the left arm bone of the Gale Demon Wolf. This skill was an area-of-effect attack with astonishing power, but it also required a considerable amount of time to charge up before unleashing its full potential. At this moment, Qian Yuhan was using his "Shadow Clone of Light" to test Mu Chen.
It must be said that Mu Chen knew Qian Yuhan far too well. He knew that Qian Yuhan was cautious and never acted rashly, and would definitely take a probing attack first to find out the other party's strength. Therefore, when Qian Yuhan used "Shadow Clone of Light", Mu Chen had already quietly begun to gather his strength, waiting for the best opportunity to arrive.
As expected, upon seeing this scene, Qian Yuhan instantly understood Mu Chen's battle strategy. He couldn't help but smile wryly, secretly sighing, "It seems my third brother really knows me inside and out..." However, since things had come to this, he could only grit his teeth and deal with the situation ahead.
The black fourth spirit ring beneath Qian Yuhan's feet flashed, "Fourth Spirit Skill: Baptism of Light!"
Qian Yuhan unfurled her wings of light, using them to amplify her speed as she dodged the attacks of Mu Chen's "Demon Wolf Storm"—each wolf shadow a direct hit. One wolf shadow pounced straight at her, but Qian Yuhan dodged, causing the wolf shadow to miss and collide with another wolf shadow attempting to attack her. A deafening roar echoed throughout the arena, drawing many residents from the Bright Moon Villa district to watch the battle.
Qian Yuhan moved with lightning speed, soaring into the sky in the blink of an eye. With a gentle release of his right hand, the Radiant Divine Sword, radiating brilliant light, did not plummet to the ground as expected. Instead, it seemed to possess sentience, closely following Qian Yuhan and soaring together through the heavens.
Just then, an astonishing scene unfolded. The single Sword of Light suddenly split into two, then rapidly multiplied into four, eight, sixteen... the number kept increasing until it reached a full one hundred! These Swords of Light, like well-trained soldiers, stood neatly arranged behind Qian Yuhan.
When Qian Yuhan reached a certain height, he stopped and hovered in the air. The hundred or so divine swords of light surrounding him shone brightly, ready to strike. Qian Yuhan uttered a soft command: "Go!" This command, like a thunderclap, instantly shattered the silence.
In an instant, a hundred flying swords transformed into a dense rain of energy, pouring down upon the arena below with unparalleled force. The scene was truly magnificent, leaving everyone in awe.
Upon seeing this situation, Mu Chen, who was in the Soul Arena, couldn't help but exclaim, "Holy crap!" He didn't dare to be negligent in the slightest and quickly activated his second yellow soul ring, unleashing his defensive skill, "Golden Protective Aura."
In the blink of an eye, the first sword shadow hurtled towards Mu Chen with lightning speed. However, when the sword shadow touched the golden protective shield surrounding Mu Chen, it shattered and dissipated after only a slight collision. Unfortunately, there were simply too many sword shadows following suit. Although each sword shadow could not easily penetrate Mu Chen's protective golden aura, as the saying goes, two fists cannot fight four hands. As time passed, Mu Chen's protective golden aura finally could not withstand such a fierce attack and shattered with a crash.
Seeing this, a barely perceptible smile flashed across Qian Yu's cold and stern face. With a casual wave of his right hand, the remaining sword shadows that hadn't yet struck their targets vanished into thin air as if summoned, disappearing without a trace. The entire arena instantly returned to silence, leaving everyone still immersed in the breathtaking battle, unable to recover for a long time…
……
Final exams are in a month, and I've been taking extra classes, but I really can't understand anything anymore. I've missed so many classes (the price of not paying attention). I have to pay back the debt I owe. I'm crying and breaking down.
I still managed to squeeze in some time to write this chapter, it was really done in a rush, brothers, please understand, sob sob—
I'll definitely update whenever I have time, but the update time will be uncertain. I probably won't be able to update twice a day again until after my exams in early January. Brothers, please understand this poor elementary school student... *bowing emo*
