Douluo Continent: I teach and nurture students at Tianshui Academy!

Gu Shenge did not answer her, but looked down at a dark forest. After a while, he had the white dragon release its pressure to lure out the soul beasts in the forest.

Bai Yujie accepted the order, releasing her own aura to envelop the dark forest. At the same time, she condensed a ball of energy in her mouth and spat it out, smashing it into the forest.

"boom!!!"

A loud bang echoed through the dense forest, dust billowed, rocks flew, trees collapsed and broke, leaves flew everywhere, and a crater several meters wide appeared in the ground, with cracks spreading out like a spider web.

After a while, Gu Shenge and Zhu Zhuqing both sensed the resurgence of an extremely powerful soul beast aura in the dense forest, which was extremely violent, as if it came from the ancient wilderness!

"Ow!"

A roar filled with rage echoed from the depths of the dense forest, awakening the slumbering soul beasts within, disturbed by the white dragon.

A strong tremor ran through the ground, and even Gu Shenge and Zhu Zhuqing, who were sitting in the sky, felt it through the tremors in the air. The newcomer must be an extremely powerful soul beast.

By the bright moonlight, they saw a huge figure rush out of the dense forest like a madman, rampaging like a heavy tank, crushing everything in its path.

Under the moonlight, Zhu Zhuqing could see the figure rushing towards her: a giant bear with dark golden fur, over ten meters tall, its eyes devoid of any emotion, filled only with rage.

Its entire body was covered in dark golden fur, and its arms were exceptionally thick, its shoulders broad and imposing like city walls. At the ends of its two thick arms were incomparably sharp, dark golden claws, each claw easily exceeding three meters in length. With its thick arms outstretched, the claws merely moved through the air along with its body, producing a soft hissing sound.

It was none other than the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, which was said to be able to fight dragons!

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear that charged in a rage was probably no less than 50,000 years old. With its innate and powerful defense and attack capabilities, even a titled Douluo might not be its match.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear exuded an extremely fierce and powerful aura. Disturbed from its rest, it looked up at the white dragon in mid-air, its eyes bloodshot, filled with anger and killing intent. It roared and howled, wanting to tear the white dragon to pieces and then devour it completely.

Sensing the savage and ferocious aura of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, Zhu Zhuqing's cold and pretty face turned somewhat pale. Feeling a little scared, she unconsciously reached out and grabbed Gu Shenge's trench coat, as if this would make her feel safe.

Chapter 112: Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's Left and Right Palm Bones

In the dense forest, a dark golden dinosaur bear, over ten meters tall, stood majestically, resembling a small dark golden mountain. It exuded a savage and ferocious aura, opened its blood-red maw, and roared angrily. The sound waves shook the surrounding trees, causing leaves to flutter down. Its eyes were blood-red as it glared at the white dragon in the sky, wishing it could tear her to pieces.

Bai Yujie was also intimidated by the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, and her dragon eyes revealed a trace of tension and panic.

Although the Xuan Shui Black Flood Dragon can be considered a high-level soul beast, it is still far inferior to the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear, which can fight against giant dragons.

Even with her nearly 100,000-year cultivation level, she was no match for this 50,000-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear; she probably couldn't even withstand three claw attacks.

Sitting atop the white dragon, Gu Shenge looked down at the dark gold dinosaur below. She reached out and gently stroked the white dragon's smooth, jade-like scales. It was as if there was a magical power in her palm that gradually relaxed and calmed the originally tense white dragon.

A bright silver moon slowly rose from behind Gu Shengge, encircling her in nine rings. Three thousand silver threads moved with the wind, and the cool moonlight enveloped her. She was radiant, noble, and holy, reflecting the bright moon in the sky. She transformed into a sage of the moon, walking in the world.

Zhu Zhuqing looked at her teacher, who was possessed by the Taiyin Martial Soul, and a strange light appeared in her beautiful eyes. The Moon Shadow Cat Martial Soul in her body trembled slightly, and she developed a sense of dependence on Gu Shenge.

"Third Soul Skill: Ice Extreme Divine Light"

Gu Shenge ascended into the sky, his silver eyes coldly staring at the roaring Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, indifferent and ruthless, as if nothing in the world could move him in the slightest.

Roar--

Upon seeing Gu Shenge, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear sensed a deadly danger emanating from him, driven by its animalistic instincts. It abruptly raised its terrifying claws, each with a three-meter-long blade, ready to strike, when it heard an extremely indifferent male voice.

"Third Soul Skill: Ice Extreme Divine Light"

A beam of icy blue divine light, capable of freezing everything in the world, descended from the sky. Extreme cold permeated the air, freezing everything in its path. Even space itself was frozen solid. The entire dense forest was frozen into ice sculptures by the cold air, transforming into a world of ice, which was dazzling under the moonlight!

Roar! ! !

Sensing the deadly threat posed by the Frostfire Divine Light, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear roared to mask its panic. A layer of dark golden light surged from its undamaged fur, not outwardly emitted but contained within its fur. Each strand of dark golden fur stood on end, like steel needles, as it simultaneously swung its massive claws, striking at the Frostfire Divine Light!

Looking at the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear facing the icy divine light, a hint of surprise appeared in Gu Shenge's originally indifferent silver eyes.

That bear is very brave!

Ideals are beautiful, but reality is cruel.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, with a mere 50,000 years of history, could handle ordinary Title Douluos, but against the 100,000-year-old third soul skill of a level 99 Peerless Douluo, it was nothing more than an ant.

When the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's giant claws collided with the icy divine light, there was no loud noise as expected. The extreme cold contained in the divine light instantly froze the giant bear, turning it into a lifelike bear-shaped ice sculpture, powerless to resist.

In front of Gu Shenge, let alone a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear with more than 50,000 years of history, even the strongest member of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear clan, Bear King, is not worth mentioning.

Inside the ice sculpture, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's proud defense was utterly unable to withstand the extreme cold. Its supposedly unparalleled claws were frozen solid and unable to move. It could only watch as Gu Shenge descended from the sky and landed in front of it.

"They are quite persistent."

Looking at the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear that hadn't yet frozen to death, Gu Shenge exclaimed in admiration. Then, she raised her hand and gently patted the ice sculpture. With a slight force, she smashed the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear into shattered ice, while its two arms remained intact.

A black spirit ring appeared, along with a dark gold dinosaur right arm spirit bone that was over 50,000 years old.

The spirit ring and the corpse of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear were retrieved by Gu Shenge into the Bright Realm, while its arms and spirit bones were stored in the system space.

Gu Shenge still didn't approve of the dark gold dinosaur claw bear's right arm soul bone, which was over 50,000 years old; only the bear king's soul bone could catch his eye.

Zhu Zhuqing was amazed to see her teacher defeat the terrifying bear-like spirit beast with just one spirit skill, and even obtain a spirit bone. Her beautiful eyes shone with admiration.

The teacher is amazing!!

After dealing with the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, Gu Shenge flew alone into the dense forest and soon pulled out another Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, nearly two meters tall and almost frozen to death.

When the white dragon saw Gu Shenge return, it landed with Zhu Zhuqing on its back.

Gu Shenge tossed the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear to the ground and lightly slapped its head with a palm. A sound of bones cracking was heard, and all the bones of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear except for its arms were shattered by his palm. At the same time, he softened its fur with his Taiyin Soul Power, rendering it defenseless.

"Xiao Qing, it's your turn."

Looking at the dying Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, Zhu Zhuqing knew exactly what her teacher was thinking: she wanted to use this soul beast as her third soul ring.

The little wildcat swiftly approached the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, a fine gold dagger appearing in her hand. With all her might, and despite the bear's already shattered bones and broken outer fur, she managed to plunge the dagger into its central nervous system, piercing the thousand-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear and killing it.

A dazzling ring of bright purple spirit rings appeared as the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear died.

Looking at her trembling hands, Zhu Zhuqing seriously doubted that if it weren't for her teacher's help, she probably wouldn't have been able to kill the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear even if she had a whole day.

The little wildcat immediately sat cross-legged, drawing the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's spirit ring to its front and beginning to absorb this thousand-year spirit ring, its entire body being coated with a layer of purple.

Gu Shenge then turned his gaze to the corpse of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. He deliberately avoided the arms when he shattered the bones, specifically to target the left and right metacarpal bones of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

The Sun Sword appeared in his hand, and like a hot knife through tofu, it severed the left and right forelimbs of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, dissecting it in a few swift movements to reveal two strange bones.

They were clearly the left and right metacarpal bones of a dark gold dinosaur.

"As expected, my luck is not bad."

The two metacarpal bones were dark gold in color and exuded a strong soul power fluctuation. The bones, which resembled the palms of the hands, were not large, but five narrow blades appeared at the front end, like miniature versions of dinosaur claws. The dark gold halo flowed on the blades like water ripples, giving them the feel of divine weapons.

Gu Shenge then took out the arms of the 50,000-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, and after untying them, she found two more pieces of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's left and right metacarpal bones.

Gu Shenge did not intend to fuse these two pairs of metacarpal bones, as neither was suitable for him. After all, there was still a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear King, over 400,000 years old, waiting for him, and it was not worth fusing them prematurely.

Zhu Zhuqing ran into trouble right after the metacarpal bone was dissected.

(The protagonist's soul bones are all of the highest grade, so there's no need to worry.)

Chapter 113: Zhu Zhuqing's感动 (Moved/Touched)

Gu Shenge looked at the two pairs of dark golden bone palms floating in front of her, one pair over 50,000 years old and the other over 3,000 years old.

He's always been lucky; perhaps it's the sun's protection—no, it's night now, more accurately the moon's blessing.

He waved his hand to put the two pairs of dark gold dinosaur claw bear paw bones into his system space, then turned to look at Zhu Zhuqing, who was absorbing the three-thousand-year-old dark gold dinosaur claw bear soul ring.

A rich purple halo enveloped Zhu Zhuqing, and the Moon Shadow Cat Martial Soul possessed her, transforming her into a sexy catwoman. Her slightly childish yet cold and beautiful face showed traces of pain, her delicate eyebrows were furrowed, her hair was wet, and she was covered in sweat. Her lithe body, wrapped in a tight leather outfit, trembled violently, indicating that her condition was very bad.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Soul Ring, which is over 3,000 years old, is even more powerful, violent, and domineering than the 2,000-year-old Human-Faced Demon Spider Soul Ring that Meng Yiran absorbed. Its absorption difficulty is no less than that of a 10,000-year-old Soul Ring.

Although Zhu Zhuqing had undergone a week of body tempering training, making her physical strength stronger than that of an average soul master, she still couldn't control the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear soul ring.

That extremely violent and domineering energy rampaged through her body, even more savage than an enraged rhinoceros. It was unbearable for Zhu Zhuqing; she felt as if her meridians were about to explode, her whole body was in excruciating pain, and her bones could not withstand the impact of the energy, as if they were about to fall apart.

Zhu Zhuqing endured the excruciating pain in her body, trying to concentrate on refining the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear Soul Ring. However, her level 30 soul power was simply insufficient to restrain the series of raging rhinoceroses within her body. As soon as it condensed, it was forcibly broken through, leaving her body riddled with holes, and there was no time to repair it.

"We absolutely cannot let our teacher down!!"

Seeing that the energy in her body was getting out of control, Zhu Zhuqing gritted her teeth. She could not give up and could not disappoint her teacher. She immediately forced herself to change her posture.

Since ordinary meditation methods couldn't help her refine the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Soul Ring, she decided to try another one.

The little wildcat forcefully formed the Taiyin Seal, assumed a visualization posture, ignored the waves of pain coming from her body, concentrated her spiritual power, and actually began to cultivate the Taiyin Refining Spirit Technique!

As if sensing her presence, the bright moon in the sky cast a ray of moonlight onto Zhu Zhuqing's trembling body. The silvery moonlight gradually emerged and flowed into the little wildcat's body with her breath.

This scene caught Gu Shenge's eye and surprised him as well.

Abandoning the Martial Soul Meditation Method, they instead used the Taiyin Refining Spirit Technique to refine the Soul Ring.

Gu Shenge hadn't considered this point, since he no longer needed to absorb spirit rings, so he hadn't tried this method.

If Zhu Zhuqing succeeds, then the students in the elite class can switch to using the Taiyin Refining Spirit Technique to refine their soul rings.

As the moonlight entered her body, the little wildcat clearly felt a chill gradually enveloping her, relieving the burning pain within her and making her mind clearer.

Even with the help of the moonlight, it only barely suppressed the violent and domineering energy surging within the body, and it was still difficult to refine it.

However, the soul ring energy within Zhu Zhuqing's body is like a rootless duckweed, without any support. With persistent effort, she can still refine and absorb it.

The moonlight flowed through the little wildcat's body, soothing the damage to her meridians and repairing them little by little. The violent energy was forcibly suppressed, making her like a fish on a chopping board, at Zhu Zhuqing's mercy.

Although the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was powerful, it appeared insignificant and negligible in the face of the power of Taiyin.

Three hours later~

The moon disappeared, and a pale white light appeared in the sky. The clouds churned, and the light of dawn broke through the clouds, dispelling the remaining darkness of the night.

Gu Shenge watched Zhu Zhuqing, who was nearing the end of absorbing the soul ring, with undisguised admiration in her eyes and a slight smile of satisfaction on her lips.

He originally intended to help the little wildcat refine her soul ring, but she found a way on her own.

As the dense purple light enveloping Zhu Zhuqing's body receded into her body, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's spirit ring overlapped with the other two spirit rings, and the third spirit ring was completely refined.

Two yellow and one purple spirit rings swirled and floated beneath Zhu Zhuqing, signifying her official breakthrough to the Spirit Master level.

She absorbed all the soul power contained in the soul ring that had been around for over three thousand years, and her soul power level jumped to level thirty-three!
