Chapter 523: Revisiting Star Dou: Searching for Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beasts

"Oh my, Feihuang, it's so boring here. I'm not at the point of leveling up yet, so why did you drag me here?" Dark Qian Renxue complained, her face full of dissatisfaction.

What she enjoyed was the thrill of turning the world upside down and then slaughtering those who coveted her beauty; coming to a ghost place like the Star Dou Great Forest, where there were hardly any humans, did not suit her desires at all.

"You aren't at the point of leveling up, but I am." Feihuang smiled slightly, flipped his left hand, and his Dunjia Heavenly Book martial soul was revealed.

He had kept it hidden all these years because he was worried about the saying, "The tree that stands above the forest will be destroyed by the wind," but at this very moment, unless a god descended to the mortal realm, no one on the Douluo Continent, including the three Limit Douluo and Bibi Dong, could do anything to him anymore.

Even if they were fighting in places like the Angel Temple or Sea God Island, where Qian Daoliu and Bo Saixi could directly borrow the power of gods, Feihuang might not be able to defeat them, but he could at least get away.

And if fighting in the outside world, Feihuang would not shy away from anyone in a one-on-one, and even had a certain amount of confidence that he could kill a Limit Douluo.

Therefore, he no longer needed to hide anything from Qian Renxue; in short, he was no longer afraid!

Once Feihuang also reached the Limit Douluo level, even if they could borrow the power of a Level One God, he feared they would not be his match, so now he needed to replenish the Spirit Rings for his Dunjia Heavenly Book as soon as possible.

The million-year Spirit Ring of the Red Hare would be best used as his final ring, as only then could it unleash its greatest power.

As for the sixth through eighth Spirit Rings, Feihuang needed to spend a little time searching for them carefully.

He believed that on this continent, besides the Azure Ox Python and Titan Giant Ape brothers in plain sight, and the many Ferocious Beasts still in seclusion at the center of the Life Lake, there must be other Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beasts in existence.

One only had to look at later generations to know.

Dragon God Douluo Mu En, Body Douluo Du Busi, Dragon Emperor Douluo Long Xiaoyao, Gluttony Douluo Xuanzi, and others—a whole bunch of people possessed Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Rings.

Especially monsters like Mu En, Du Busi, and Long Xiaoyao, who each averaged two or three red Spirit Rings.

With so many Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Rings, they couldn't have all grown during that ten-thousand-year period; at least some of them must have existed all along, just keeping a low profile.

Feihuang wanted to try to see if he could find them. Actually, it wasn't that he hadn't thought about the Ferocious Beasts or the Demon Orca King and Deep Sea Demon Whale King in the ocean.

But the Ferocious Beasts were likely gathered together right now, and no matter how confident Nan Feihuang was, he wouldn't dare claim he could take on a whole group of Ferocious Beasts alone, even if his combat power exceeded the norm; after all, he was only at level ninety-three right now.

Moreover, among the Ferocious Beasts, there existed the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Ditian, whose strength far surpassed that of a Limit Douluo.

Added to that was the unfathomable Silver Dragon King, who was nursing her wounds; it would be better for him not to go poking the tiger's whiskers of these fellows while bringing Qian Renxue along.

As for the Demon Orca King and the Deep Sea Demon Whale King in the sea, since Feihuang had let his wife Lv Lingqi complete the Sea God Nine Trials, these two fellows were naturally her prey; Feihuang would not snatch his own wife's things.

Of course, the ocean was so vast that it couldn't possibly only have these two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beasts, but precisely because it was so vast—with an area countless times larger than the Douluo Continent—going into the ocean to look for them would be truly like looking for a needle in a haystack, wouldn't it?

Actually, if it weren't for the fact that the Seven Great Sects re-election assembly was approaching and it was inconvenient for him to travel far, he believed the place he should go to right now was the depths of the Extreme North.

There were hidden Ferocious Beasts there too, and they weren't gathered together like those fellows in the Life Lake.

The Snow Maiden, the Ice Jade Empress Scorpion, and the Titan Snow Demon King—these three Heavenly Kings of the Extreme North were all good choices. Furthermore, the Snow Maiden seemed to have an adopted son, Ice Bear King Xiaobai, whose strength was not inferior to a Ferocious Beast.

For these three months, Feihuang would stay in the Star Dou Great Forest to search for Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beasts; if he found them, he would try to hunt them to replenish the Dunjia Heavenly Book's Spirit Rings, and if he couldn't, he would go to the Extreme North afterward.

Qian Renxue stared blankly at the book in Nan Feihuang's hand, her eyes full of disbelief. "Fei... Feihuang, you have Twin Spirits?"

"That's right, is it a surprise, Xue Jie?" Feihuang laughed.

"What kind of surprise is this? Such a big matter, and all these years, you've actually been hiding it from me. Do you have me in your heart at all?" Qian Renxue was extremely dissatisfied; there were simply too many things Feihuang had hidden from her.

Every time she thought she had finally figured out the bottom line of Feihuang's strength, he could always pull out a new trump card, and each one was more terrifying than the last; he was simply like a bottomless pit.

This was only because Nan Feihuang hadn't revealed the five existing Spirit Rings of the Dunjia Heavenly Book; otherwise, Qian Renxue would likely have been even more shocked.

"Xue Jie, don't be angry. Think about it: if a Twin Spirits user appeared within your Spirit Hall, would you go around the world proclaiming it to other factions? Bibi Dong back then kept it tighter than anyone; besides you people in the Spirit Hall, only the Grandmaster knew. Even my mother didn't know; it was only exposed after her strength was sufficiently powerful," Feihuang explained. "Xue Jie, even if I loved you before, we ultimately belonged to different factions. Just like when you disguised yourself as Xue Qinghe, did you ever reveal the truth to me?"

Qian Renxue thought about it, and it was indeed true. In a relationship between a man and a woman, honesty is certainly good, but since they belonged to different camps, one had to have a certain bottom line.

Bibi Dong had been too lacking in bottom lines with the Grandmaster back then, which led to the Grandmaster even knowing the Spirit Hall's greatest secret: the Angel Divine Set composed of the Angel Six Soul Bones.

It was said that Qian Xunji was so furious at the time he nearly died of rage; if killing the Grandmaster wouldn't have completely driven Bibi Dong insane, he would have acted back then.

"Fine, I'll forgive you this time, Xue Jie, but remember: from now on, you are not allowed to hide anything from me," Qian Renxue said.

"Alright, I swear, if I hide anything from you again, let me only be able to have one son in the future, and the rest all daughters!" Feihuang raised four fingers and made a seemingly vicious vow.

As a Crown Prince of a kingdom, one son was clearly not enough; what if some accident happened?

But Feihuang was confident that with him protecting them, his son would definitely grow up healthy. He needed an heir to inherit the throne, and as for the rest, of course, the more little "cotton-padded jackets" (daughters), the better; Feihuang seemed to have a bit of a daughter-complex potential.

"Tch, this vow—why do I feel like you seem to be enjoying it?" Qian Renxue curled her lips and rolled her eyes. This was only because she was in her darkened state; if it were her usual self, she wouldn't show such an expression.

And only in her current state would she say the extremely bold words that followed.

"I'll say this first: if you really lie to me, then this only son must be born by me!"

As expected of the dark version, she had absolutely no sense of shame. In fact, her thinking was very simple.

Since the Spirit Hall and the Gu Lei Kingdom were now enemies, the winner would always be one of the two sides.

Whether the Gu Lei Kingdom won or the Spirit Hall won, as long as the person who finally inherited everything was her and Feihuang's son, then it was a win-win situation either way!
