Chapter 59 Soul Hunter 2.0 (Part 1)
(Thanks to my true love, Bika Qiu, for the 10,000 Qidian coins, and to all the readers for their votes, comments, and support.)
A week later, Dugu Bo and Flander led Li Luochen, Li Yusong, and Dugu Yan to hunt souls in the Star Dou Great Forest.
The quality of the soul beasts needed this time is very high. Li Luochen needs a Golden Earth Dragon King, a powerful sub-dragon species with the attributes of light and the power of gold.
Dugu Yan needs a 10,000-year-old earth-attribute dragon. If she encounters a dark gold dinosaur or a Titan Ape, she can also absorb it. As for the dragonification issue, it's not a big problem at the moment.
Because Dugu Yan absorbed the head soul bone of the Sea Demon Dragon, she has achieved dragon transformation of the dragon's head and right arm.
The dragon transformation progress is similar to that of the Soul Kings of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, so there are more options for the fourth Soul Ring this time.
The palm bones of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear are perfectly suited for Dugu Yan. With Dugu Yan's arms transformed into dragons and combined with the strongest palm bones of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, the power would be truly terrifying.
Li Yusong needs a sub-dragon with golden bloodline, such as a golden python, a golden horned dragon, or a golden-scaled lizard king.
The whale glue that Dugu Bo brought back this time has greatly strengthened Shrek Academy. When Flander absorbed the soul bone, he was only at the mid-level of level 82. After more than half a year of training, he has only barely reached the late stage.
Now he has consumed two 50,000-year-old whale gelatin pills. The effects of the whale gelatin helped Flander's body retain the effects of the Wind Whisper Eagle Beak Flower medicine to accelerate its fusion and absorption, helping Flander reach level 84 in one fell swoop, a full level and a half higher.
However, Flander had indeed absorbed a lot during this period: a Celestial-grade Wind Whisper Eagle Beak Flower, two soul bones, and two 50,000-year-old whale glues. He had a lot of energy in his body, and now the whale glues were directly helping Flander quickly fuse with this energy.
He has only reached level 84. Flander is no longer a beginner in Soul Douluo; he is considered a master among Soul Douluo. The Soul Ring configurations of the three instructors of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy are not as good as Flander's. Flander has the best Soul Ring configuration.
The teachers at Shrek Academy all received two Whale Glue, and Zhao Wuji reached the peak of level 79 from level 78. He is estimated to break through to Soul Douluo soon.
Shao Xin reached level 75 from level 73, and Lu Qibin reached the peak of level 69 from level 68. Lu Qibin is a bit older than Li Yusong, so breaking through level 70 was a difficult hurdle for him.
Zhao Wuji and Lu Qibin should break through in about a year, at which time Flander will lead them to obtain their spirit rings.
As for the two 80,000-year-old whale capsules that Oscar and Ma Hongjun left for them, they shouldn't rush to take them; they should wait until they are ready to fight.

Return to the Star Dou Great Forest
Since the three of them needed rare spirit rings and spirit beasts, they went directly to the mixed zone of the Star Dou Great Forest.
The mixed zone is the border between the core area and the inner area of the Star Dou Great Forest. It is home to an extremely rich variety of soul beasts, including even 100,000-year-old soul beasts.
Finding soul beasts here is extremely convenient, and with Dugu Bo protecting them, the safety level is quite high.
Currently, the only 100,000-year-old soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest are the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, known as the Forest Emperor and the Forest King, respectively. They generally do not appear in the mixed zone at will.
As for other powerful soul beasts, such as the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger and the Thousand-Pound Ant King, they will not appear here. They have all been driven out and should be hiding inside. If they appear in the mixed zone, they will most likely be beaten up by the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python.
The five of them searched for soul beasts in the mixed zone. There were a lot of ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts there, but Dugu Bo chased them all away. Ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts are intelligent; when they encounter humans they can't defeat, they'll run away instead of blindly charging in. Roar—
A giant bear with dark golden fur, over five meters tall, with eyes devoid of any emotion, filled with indifference and cruelty.
Its entire body was covered in dark golden fur, and its arms were particularly thick, with broad and powerful shoulders like city walls. At the ends of its two thick arms were incomparably sharp dark golden claws, each claw being over a meter long.
A pair of thick arms were outstretched, and the sharp claws could make a slight hissing sound as they swept through the air following his body.
"Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear! Five meters tall! Just the ten-thousand-year level, Yanzi, your soul ring has arrived!" Li Luochen said excitedly as he looked at the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear in front of him.
This is a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. If he didn't take such a flashy route, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear would be one of the most suitable soul beasts for him, with immense power and unparalleled ultimate gold.
Adult Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bears have no natural enemies; even true dragons might not fare well against them. Among all top-tier spirit beasts, it has always ranked among the best. This is a terrifying spirit beast capable of contending with true dragons!
The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's most formidable attack lies in its pair of terrifying claws. After reaching ten thousand years of cultivation, this creature becomes an almost monstrous threat. Even a Title Douluo would find it difficult to resist.
Fortunately, Dugu Bo was a Super Douluo, and he was still able to control this Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear that was just over ten thousand years old.
The 10,000-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear is comparable to a 100,000-year-old soul beast. It would be perfect as Dugu Yan's fourth soul ring, and she should get a powerful amplification soul skill.
Dugu Bo instantly appeared in front of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear and delivered a poisonous punch, causing the bear to howl in pain and frantically claw wildly.
Even going mad couldn't change its fate. It was constantly suppressed by Dugu Bo, its poisoning deepened, and its strength gradually gave out.
Not long after, the massive body collapsed, still breathing but very weakly.
"Yan Yan, take care of it." Dugu Bo clapped his hands after finishing, having subdued the super soul beast known as the "Earth Ripper" with little effort.
Dugu Yan released her dragon claw with her right hand, instantly ending the life of the dark gold dinosaur bear.
A black spirit ring appeared, and Dugu Yan sat cross-legged, absorbing this ten-thousand-year spirit ring. She was the second person after Li Luochen to absorb a ten-thousand-year spirit ring as her fourth spirit ring. It is unknown whether there were any before, but there certainly hasn't been one in the last hundred years.
Li Luochen then went to the corpse of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. He didn't need to look at the other parts; he only needed to look at the right arm. The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's most powerful feature was its claws. He wondered if it would drop an external soul bone.
Li Luochen started to pry open the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's right arm, but to no avail. The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's right claw was stronger than its left claw, but unfortunately, it didn't have one.
Li Luochen touched his left arm and discovered that the bones in his left hand were emitting a faint dark gold color. As expected of a versatile soul beast, dropping a soul bone is truly amazing.
"Hmm? An external soul bone?" Dugu Bo also looked over at this moment. Li Luochen was holding a dark golden palm bone in his hand.
"Yes, and it's the most precious palm bone of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. The Dark Gold Terrorclaw will greatly enhance Yanzi's close combat ability," Li Luochen said with a smile, watching Dugu Yan absorb the soul ring.
