The night passed uneventfully, and soon it was the next day.
After finishing breakfast, Old Scorpion and Dugu Feng followed behind the Shrek group and left the supply town as well.
However, Dugu Feng was in no hurry, maintaining a distance of several dozen miles between them.
Then ca the deploynt of the Erald Dragon Snake.
With the Core Pearl inside its body, the Erald Dragon Snake was the perfect scout.
Dugu Feng had it gradually close the distance to the Shrek team.
Within the Shrek team, Flender and Zhao Wuji took the front and rear positions respectively.
In the middle were Dai Mubai, Tang San, and the rest of the Shrek Seven Devils.
The Erald Dragon Snake shrank to its smallest form, just five inches long, slithering close to the ground until it was only a few hundred ters away.
After breaking through the ten-thousand-year threshold, the Erald Dragon Snake’s Void ability had greatly improved.
Originally, its jade-like body was semi-transparent, but now it had beco completely transparent, coupled with a snake’s natural ability to conceal its presence.
This allowed it to evade detection by both Flender and Zhao Wuji.
It shadowed the Shrek team as they advanced through the Star Dou Great Forest, keeping Dugu Feng updated on Tang San’s movents.
Around noon, a suitable Spirit Beast for Oscar appeared.
It was the Millennial Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent.
Following the serpent were Snake Woman Chao Tianxiang and ng Yiran.
Naturally, a duel ensued, with Tang San defeating ng Yiran.
This allowed Oscar to obtain his third Spirit Ring, granting him the flight skill.
Subsequent events unfolded without much change, and Tang San broke through to the thirtieth rank.
Among the Shrek Seven Devils, both Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing now needed Spirit Rings.
They continued their search.
A day and night passed without encountering anything suitable.
Dugu Feng knew the main event was about to unfold.
He ordered the Nine-Section Jadeite to keep a greater distance from the Shrek group.
While Flender and Zhao Wuji couldn’t detect the Nine-Section Jadeite, the Titan Giant Ape might be able to.
Due to Xiao Wu’s inability to control her aura, the Titan Giant Ape ca searching.
Xiao Wu was taken away by the Titan Giant Ape.
And during Tang San’s search for Xiao Wu, his greatest opportunity would appear.
All of this was naturally all too familiar to Dugu Feng.
After the Titan Giant Ape took Xiao Wu, Dugu Feng had the Erald Dragon Snake gradually approach Tang San, following him closely.
"Old Scorpion, our target this ti is Tang San. According to the information I obtained in Slaughter City, Tang Hao has given his son special training. For his third Spirit Ring, Tang San will definitely attempt to absorb one beyond his level. That ans there’s a high chance an External Soul Bone will appear. I’ll have the Erald Dragon Snake keep watch on Tang San. If an External Soul Bone appears, Old Scorpion, you’ll make your move and capture Tang San!" Dugu Feng instructed.
For anything he couldn’t explain, he naturally attributed it to information obtained in Slaughter City.
Old Scorpion blinked, sowhat shocked.
He wanted to say, are External Soul Bones really that easy to co by?
But seeing the absolute certainty on the young master’s face, Old Scorpion could only keep his myriad questions to himself. The young master had never been wrong before—it was best to follow his lead.
Deep in the forest.
The Titan Giant Ape was sprinting at trendous speed. Its massive body, over ten ters tall, moved through the forest like a towering building.
The width of its shoulders exceeded seven ters.
Yet, the Titan Giant Ape’s movent wasn’t the reckless charge one might imagine.
His massive fra did nothing to hinder his agility. Whenever obstacles appeared, he didn’t even need to slow down—the mountain-like muscles in his legs twitched, propelling him leaps of over a hundred ters.
Perched on his shoulder, Xiao Wu sat primly.
"Er Ming, this is far enough. You acted brilliantly this ti! Even I would’ve thought you were truly furious if I didn’t know the truth!
Look how you scared Dean Flender and Teacher Zhao, hehe..."
Xiao Wu’s lively eyes sparkled as she laughed.
The Titan Giant Ape’s lantern-sized eyes flickered with light, revealing a cunning glint.
"Humans are sly, so we Spirit Beasts must be even slyer. The forest is full of sches every mont—how could I not learn a thing or two!
By the way, Sister Xiao Wu, won’t you go see Big Brother? He misses you too!"
The Titan Giant Ape looked quite pleased with himself.
"Tell Da Ming to co here. I’m pressed for ti—I need to condense my third Spirit Ring first!"
With that, Xiao Wu leaped down from the Titan Giant Ape’s body and sat cross-legged.
Her hands ford orchid gestures, right palm facing upward, as she uttered a series of sounds incomprehensible to humans.
As the sounds echoed, Xiao Wu’s eyes turned golden, and a massive white jade rabbit phantom materialized behind her.
The phantom’s color gradually shifted until it beca a vivid crimson.
The radiant glow spread like flowing blood.
These lights slowly rged into Xiao Wu’s body.
Two yellow rings appeared around her—her first and second Spirit Rings.
Then, a layer of purple light gradually erged above the two rings.
The purple light coalesced into starlike points, finally forming a thousand-year purple Spirit Ring.
After the Spirit Ring took shape, Xiao Wu grew slightly taller, her curves becoming more defined and graceful.
"Sister Xiao Wu, how much longer until you reach Soul Saint? The longer you stay in the human world, the more dangerous it gets!"
The Titan Giant Ape beside her voiced his concern.
Xiao Wu slowly opened her eyes: "What’s there to fear? It’s not like I’m without backing. In the human world, it’s not just about personal strength...
Tell , in the years since I left, have any Soul Masters wielding the Clear Sky Hamr broken through to Titled Douluo in the Star Dou Great Forest?"
The Titan Giant Ape fell into deep thought before finally answering: "Four such Soul Masters have broken through. The most recent was last year..."
A red glint flashed through Xiao Wu’s eyes: "Shouldn’t it be five?
Four is still good. That ans the Clear Sky Sect has at least six Titled Douluo. The backing I’ve found is strong enough to ensure my safe cultivation for so ti!"
If Dugu Feng had heard Xiao Wu’s words, it would have completely overturned his perception of her.
Was this really the sa naive, love-struck Xiao Wu who ventured into the human world?
She actually knew about Tang San’s connection to the Clear Sky Sect and its Titled Douluo.
And from her tone, she had actively sought out this powerful ally.
The Titan Giant Ape chuckled helplessly: "Sister Xiao Wu, this strategy of ’knowing there are tigers in the mountains yet deliberately heading there’—are you sure it’ll work? Don’t end up trapping yourself!"
"We’ve discussed this before—this is the way.
Given our understanding of the human world, there’s a good chance of success.
I never expected to et Tang San so soon after arriving in the human world."
Tang San possessed Innate Full Soul Power and wielded the Blue Silver Grass Soul Spirit. His master, Yu Xiaogang, was from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family. At that ti, I had already deduced that Tang San’s identity was extraordinary.
Later, he took back to Holy Soul Village.
I learned his father’s na was Tang Hao.
That was when I confird Tang San’s identity—the son of Haotian Douluo and also the son of that empress from the Blue Silver Forest.
As long as I maintained a close relationship with Tang San, even if Tang Hao coveted my Spirit Rings and Soul Bones for him, he would still grant a period of stable cultivation.
He would also help conceal , preventing other factions from discovering my presence.
Wasn’t this exactly what we had planned before venturing into the human world?
Otherwise, wandering freely across the continent, any random Soul Douluo could kill !"
