Chapter 25: I'm Only Level 20! How Can I Save Her?
Staring intently at the fiery battlefield ahead, Tang Chuan's brows furrowed involuntarily. A Spirit Beast several meters tall with three enormous heads?
"This guy…" Tang Chuan's eyes flickered as he murmured, "A Spirit Beast with three heads? Its entire body is as red as blood, and it has an extremely fierce fire-attribute Qi…"
Many fragments of Spirit Beast data flashed through his mind, and finally, his gaze sharpened, as if he had remembered something.
"Judging by this guy's appearance, it should be—the Red King, one of the Ten Vicious Beasts, the Three-Headed Red Demon Mastiff!"
When he spoke the last five words, Tang Chuan's heart couldn't help but quicken a few beats. In his opinion, shouldn't the Ten Vicious Beasts be in the core region?
Immediately after, Tang Chuan's gaze fell upon the two individuals battling the Red King.
At this moment, although these two figures were being overwhelmed by the Red King, their auras remained incredibly powerful, with nine spirit rings swirling around them, like Heavenly Gods descended.
His gaze narrowed slightly, and Tang Chuan quickly began to analyze, his mind constantly replaying the descriptions of Titled Douluo from the original work: "Among these two, one is slender, wielding a golden Snake Lance, striking like lightning, with Spirit Abilities containing extremely strong piercing power. The other is bloated like a ball, covered in spikes, with Spirit Abilities subtly carrying potent venom…"
"Wielding a Snake Lance, with spirit power like a spear Dragon breaking through formations, this is Snake Lance Douluo!"
"The other person, spherical and covered in poison, should be Porcupinefish Douluo!"
"Shouldn't they be in Heaven Dou City right now, guarding Qian Renxue? Why are they here? Could it be… Qian Renxue is also nearby?"
Thinking of this, Tang Chuan couldn't help but gasp, looking up at the battlefield not far away, where the golden light had not completely dissipated, and a sacred pressure still lingered in the air.
Just as Tang Chuan's expression was grave, observing the battle, the corner of his eye caught a strange dark golden light not far away.
He saw his eyelid twitch violently, and his gaze instantly locked onto the fallen tree in the distance—it was the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear that had been severely wounded earlier!
At this moment, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear had long since lost all signs of life, its corpse lying on the ground. Its right arm had been corroded to a bloody mess by potent venom earlier, but amidst the damaged flesh and blood, a bone faintly glowing with a dark golden light gradually appeared in his field of vision.
"Is that—a Spirit Bone?!"
Tang Chuan's eyes instantly narrowed, a sharp glint bursting forth from them, and a look of incredible surprise and joy appeared on his face.
"Dark golden light, could it be the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's palm bone!" Tang Chuan's heart trembled, his pupils constricted slightly, as he muttered to himself.
Spirit Bones are incredibly rare, existing as an extremely scarce presence even within the entire Spirit Master's world. And this Spirit Bone before him, if it is the most lethal Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's palm bone! Placing it in the Spirit Master's world would be enough to trigger a bloody battle!
At the same time.
An earth-shattering battle was still raging ahead. The Red King's three heads spewed scorching flames and destructive shockwaves, and Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo had completely fallen into a disadvantage.
In the distant sky, a golden light was still faintly visible.
"Fight, fight, it's best if both sides are severely wounded. Then I can just take advantage of the chaos, and maybe even pick up a thousand-year Emerald Swan that you've stunned." After muttering to himself, Tang Chuan didn't hesitate. He used the Simulation Spirit Ability to transform into an emerald green vine, his body constantly stretching and winding, silently approaching the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's corpse.
Finally, the vine quietly burrowed into the broken flesh of the bear's right arm. The next second, a faint warmth and heavy sense of pressure came from the very tip of the vine.
"Found it!"
A sharp glint flashed in Tang Chuan's eyes. He controlled the vine to wrap around it once and pulled gently.
"Swish!"
A palm-sized bone, shimmering with a faint golden glow, detached from the flesh and landed steadily in Tang Chuan's hand.
This hand-like Spirit Bone was not large, but its front end had five slender, sharp blades, resembling a miniature Terrorclaw. A dark golden halo flowed continuously like ripples on the blades, giving it the feel of a divine Sharp Weapon.
"This time, I've found a treasure."
"You guys continue, I'm out of here!"
After obtaining the Spirit Bone, Tang Chuan glanced at the sky, then turned without hesitation, transforming back into an emerald green vine and rapidly fleeing towards the outer reaches of the Star Dou Great Forest.
In his opinion, the lives of these two Titled Douluo from Spirit Hall had nothing to do with him.
Even if he truly had the heart to rescue them, with his current strength, the ultimate outcome would only be to become cannon fodder. How could he save them? Turn into Di Tian and scare the Red King?
What if Di Tian really showed up later?
"The less trouble, the better. Saving my life is the most important thing."
Tang Chuan thought to himself, his figure like a green streak, weaving through the dense forest, rapidly retreating along the path he had come.
"Ah—"
But before he had gone too far, a sharp scream suddenly came from the dense forest ahead, containing extreme pain and unwillingness.
"Boom!"
Along with the scream, a heavy thud followed, as if someone had been violently slammed against a large tree, shaking the entire tree violently and causing leaves to rustle down.
His advancing figure paused, the end of the vine Tang Chuan had transformed into curled slightly, stopping on a branch. His heart tightened slightly, and he wondered:
"I think I just heard a person's voice. Could it be Qian Renxue?"
After a moment of hesitation, he slowly restrained his aura and stealthily approached the source of the sound.
Tang Chuan did not recklessly rush in, but instead used the Simulation Spirit Ability to once again disguise himself as an ordinary Blue Silver Grass on the ground, inching towards the direction of the sound.
Passing through several towering ancient trees, he finally saw the situation ahead clearly.
He saw a blonde woman sprawled miserably at the base of a giant tree, blood slowly trickling from the corner of her mouth, her clothes stained with mud and blood, slightly tattered.
And on the large tree behind her, a deep impact mark was clearly visible, with wood splinters flying and the trunk slightly cracked, showing how terrifying the impact had been.
Her gaze suddenly narrowed, and Tang Chuan's expression changed slightly. Short golden hair? A woman? Then, recalling the identities of the two Titled Douluo who had previously fought the Red King.
"Is she Qian Renxue?" His heart suddenly trembled, Tang Chuan said in a deep voice.
Just then, a roar echoed from the front.
"Roar—!"
Tang Chuan's gaze shifted, instantly falling on Qian Renxue's front. He saw seven or eight ten-thousand-year Spirit Beasts surrounding Qian Renxue, leaving no escape.
"Damn, why are there so many ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Beasts?" Taking a deep breath, Tang Chuan's gaze finally settled on the leading Spirit Beast at the very front.
It was a Spirit Beast shaped like a lion, its entire body covered in brilliant golden fur, with golden flames under its feet, and a vertical eye prominently growing in the center of its forehead.
"Three eyes, golden fur, that's the Emperor Ruishou—the Three-Eyed Golden Lion?!" Tang Chuan frowned deeply, his eyes filled with shock.
"How did it appear here?"
"Qian Renxue? Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo, Three-Eyed Golden Lion, Red King!!"
At this moment, various pieces of information in Tang Chuan's mind quickly connected. Clearly, Qian Renxue wanted to hunt the Three-Eyed Golden Lion for her spirit ring, which ultimately angered the Red King and caused it to attack. Subsequently, her two Titled Douluo subordinates were preoccupied dealing with the Red King's Clone, and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion led the other Spirit Beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest in pursuit. She was no match and was beaten into her current state.
Just then, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion raised its head high, and its third eye suddenly opened, bursting forth with a captivating golden light!
"Roar—!"
An angry roar echoed in the air, shaking the entire forest.
In that instant, it seemed as if the entire Star Dou Great Forest fell silent.
Subsequently, the seven or eight ten-thousand-year Spirit Beasts surrounding it all let out low growls in response, slowly stepping forward, their auras chilling, approaching Qian Renxue step by step.
Plants lay flat on the ground, the air was still.
A shadow of death, like a heavy dark cloud, hung over her head.
Qian Renxue's face was pale. She tried to struggle to her feet, but her knees buckled, and she nearly fell to the ground again. At this moment, she could barely stand, let alone resist such a siege?
"Am I really going to die here?"
"Grandpa, I miss you."
Looking at the slowly approaching ten-thousand-year Spirit Beasts, Qian Renxue took a deep breath, a trace of struggle and stubbornness flashing in her golden eyes, but in an instant, it was swallowed by despair.
At the same time, not far away, Tang Chuan, in his vine form, hung quietly beneath a giant tree. He calmly watched the scene before him but did not move.
He was hesitating.
"To save or not to save?" Tang Chuan's voice was barely audible.
If it were anyone else, he would probably have turned and left by now, never getting involved in such immense danger.
But the person before him was not just anyone.
She was the daughter of the Spirit Hall's Supreme Pontiff, the future Angel God Legacy holder, and the heir to the Douluo Continent's strongest power! If he could save her life now, in the turbulent future of this continent, it would be like gaining an unbreakable talisman!
She had immense utilitarian value!
Although she was Qian Xunji's descendant, and her father had some grievances with Tang Chuan, as the saying goes—five hundred Spirit Masters all slaughtered, grievances clearly dispersed like clouds and mists.
The primary culprit had already been punished, so why implicate innocent people?
If Tang San had been in charge of the Cloud Mist Sect back then, everyone would probably have met their demise. But this is the difference between Xiao Yan and Tang San, and the difference between a modern person who has received a higher education and a feudal society person who only knows loyalty to the monarch, the Sect, and a thief.
Tang Chuan would not be a dog of the Tang Clan, nor would he be loyal to the Clear Sky Sect.
Everything he did was for himself!
"But the problem is, my spirit power is only at level twenty, and I haven't even obtained my second spirit ring. How can I save her?"
