"Roar-"
A terrifying roar shook the surroundings, accompanied by a wave of shock that toppled the towering ancient trees of the Eternal Day Zone like wheat stalks being cut down. A sleek black shadow leaped down from the sky.
It was a wolf-shaped soul beast, much smaller compared to the giants that often reached dozens of meters in size. Its shoulder height did not exceed two meters, and its body length was only three meters. However, its build was exceptionally robust, with bulging muscles all over its body. Its beautiful silver-white fur shimmered under the eternal daylight, reflecting an unparalleled brilliance.
Luminous Silver Wolf!
A unique soul beast of the Eternal Day Zone in the Yoyo Forest!
Legend had it that one of the two super predators in the Yoyo Forest was a Wolf Emperor with over ten thousand years of cultivation. The Luminous Silver Wolf, therefore, became the dominant race of the Eternal Day Zone. Yet, this particular Luminous Silver Wolf, with ten thousand years of cultivation, enough to roam the forest with impunity, was now fleeing as if for its life!
"Boom-"
A beam of black light tore through the space, shooting at meteoric speed, its exterior seemingly engulfed in flames, turning everything in its path to ashes.
Soul beasts with ten thousand years of cultivation had an extremely acute sense of danger. The Luminous Silver Wolf's silver-white fur stood on end, and a smooth, eggshell-like Soul Power Shield formed over its body.
The Luminous Silver Wolf's reaction was not untimely, but the black light was too fast and too powerful. The moment it touched the Soul Power Shield, the shield trembled violently like boiling water.
After a sharp cracking sound, the black light grazed the Luminous Silver Wolf's left hind leg and embedded itself in the ground, revealing its true form a sharp Black Spear with a forked tip like a snake's tongue.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
The Luminous Silver Wolf let out a mournful howl, its body tumbling to the ground, its once- lustrous fur now dirty and matted with blood. It cast a venomous glance at the snake spear, knowing it could not escape death. Clenching its last breath, it fled madly toward its predetermined target.
Just a few seconds later, two figures arrived at the spot where the Luminous Silver Wolf was injured. They were Princess Xu Jiujiu of the Star Luo Empire and the Snake Spear Soul Douluo, She Chong.
She Chong pulled out the snake spear with one hand and asked Xu Jiujiu with concern, "Your Highness, are you alright?"
"I'm fine, just don't lose it," Xu Jiujiu replied.
Xu Jiujiu's face was flushed, and she was breathing heavily. The speed of the ten-thousand- year-old Luminous Silver Wolf was not something a Star Crown could easily match, and she was struggling to keep up.
She Chong smiled confidently and said, "Your Highness, don't worry. That beast has been hit in its hind leg by my spear. It won't run far before it dies from its injuries."
"Good."
Xu Jiujiu nodded and looked up at the sky, a flash of worry crossing her eyes. She then said, "Uncle She, the Luminous Silver Wolves never enter the Eternal Night Zone, yet I feel like this one is fleeing toward the Eternal Night."
"I think it's just panicking and running blindly!" She Chong waved his hand, dismissing the idea.
Xu Jiujiu's woman's intuition told her that something was amiss, though she couldn't quite put her finger on it. She sighed and said, "Let's hope so. Let's continue the chase!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
On the other side, Ling Bai rushed toward the location of the Petrified Soul Beast without a moment's hesitation, his black pupils swirling with blood-red light.
Xu Jiujiu's and She Chong's every move was being monitored by the Demon Spiders along the way, and he knew more than Xu Jiujiu did!
Ling Bai was certain that the location of the Petrified Soul Beast was the lair of Medusa, the Snake Empress. The Luminous Silver Wolf was determined to the extreme, preferring death to leading Xu Jiujiu and She Chong to Medusa, hoping to die alongside them at Medusa's hands! The problem was that while Medusa, the Snake Empress, was powerful, ten thousand years of cultivation were not enough to defeat a Soul Douluo!
So, there must be an even more terrifying creature in Medusa's lair!
With this thought, Ling Bai dared not delay. A ten-thousand-year-old Medusa could be easily dealt with, but the unknown creature... it might take advantage of She Chong!
"Sss... sss... sss..."
The Luminous Silver Wolf stopped, its mouth wide open, drooling transparent saliva. The destructive soul power from the snake spear had almost soaked the entire back half of its body, but it didn't care. Its wolf eyes scanned the surrounding grayish-white, beast-shaped stones, as if it could see through time to the deep fear of the soul beasts in their final moments!
She Chong and Xu Jiujiu followed closely behind, the scene in the Eternal Night Zone contrasting sharply with the Eternal Day Zone. The sky was dark and devoid of light, the trees dense and sinister like endless evil spirits. They too saw the Petrified Soul Beasts and felt a chill run down their spines.
Xu Jiujiu bit her lip, her body unconsciously moving closer to She Chong. She forced a smile and said, "Uncle She, the Petrified Soul Beasts... seem to be the work of Medusa." "Damn beast, trying to trick us even in death!" She Chong cursed. "Princess, I'll go capture it, and you can kill it and absorb its soul ring once we leave the Yoyo Forest!"
"Good! Act quickly!"
Xu Jiujiu thought this was the best course of action. With an unknown level of cultivation, no soul master wanted to face Medusa, the Snake Empress!
As he spoke, She Chong took the lead, his eight soul rings-two yellow, three purple, and three black-suddenly rising. The third purple soul ring glowed brightly, and the snake spear
drew a mysterious semicircle in the air!
Third soul skill: Snake Coiling Thrust!
Faced with She Chong's furious attack, the Luminous Silver Wolf did not dodge. Instead, it raised its head, exposing its vulnerable throat. She Chong was momentarily stunned and could only watch helplessly as the Luminous Silver Wolf died on the snake spear!
"Awooo-"
The Luminous Silver Wolf fell, letting out a long, mournful howl in its final moments, as if unwilling to accept its fate, or perhaps calling out to something else!
"Hiss-hiss!"
Hearing the Luminous Silver Wolf's piercing howl, pairs of cold, emerald eyes lit up in the darkness, and soul beasts of various species and cultivation levels surged from all directions
like a flood!
In the center of the snake swarm was a soul beast with a human head and a serpent's body. She had a head full of snake hair and a pair of boar tusks, her face and neck covered in snake scales. Her third eye, located on her forehead, was tightly shut, said to petrify any creature it gazed
upon!
"Medusa, the Snake Empress!"
She Chong's heart tightened instinctively, but upon closer inspection, he relaxed and laughed, "It's just a ten-thousand-year-old Medusa. If it had broken through to fifty thousand years and had the snake swarm's help, this time, the princess and I would be in
grave danger."
Xu Jiujiu's face was tense. Unlike the reckless She Chong, she knew the Luminous Silver Wolf had fled into the Eternal Night for a reason!
Sure enough, as soon as Medusa appeared, she immediately stepped aside, ceding her
leadership. A soft, girlish laugh echoed, and another soul beast appeared before the two!
It had a human head like Medusa, but its lower body was covered in black vines. Each hand held a flower bud, and its chest contained a large, black-and-white eyeball. The white part of the eye was like a sinister spider web, filled with green blood vessels, and the gray-black pupil glowed with a cold, piercing light. The overwhelming aura of death was suffocating!
"Death... Death Emperor Yalu!"
Xu Jiujiu recognized it, and her face instantly turned pale!
Ling Bai, who had been watching from the shadows, murmured, "Descendant of the Death
God, Death Emperor Yalu... Wasn't this soul beast supposed to be extinct? And this one in the Yoyo Forest is actually fifty thousand years old!"
