Chapter 377: Chapter 377: Qian Renxue Takes Star Luo City, Dugu Feng on the Verge of a Breakthrough

The Tian Dou army advanced triumphantly all the way. Several days passed, and Dugu Feng noticed that Qian Renxue’s mindset had changed once again.

It seemed she was no longer worried at all about the appearance of Evil Soul Masters. When setting up camp, even as Dugu Bo and Dugu Feng laid down Mental Toxins, Qian Renxue paid little attention.

On the surface, it appeared Qian Renxue trusted the two of them, but Dugu Feng, who understood her extremely well, immediately realized something must have happened.

Could it be that Qiandao Liu had arrived?

With Evil Soul Masters running rampant like this, it was impossible for Qiandao Liu not to worry about Qian Renxue.

Although Azure Phoenix Douluo was a level 96 Super Douluo, he was no match for the elusive Evil Soul Masters.

It must be that Qiandao Liu had come again, which was why Qian Renxue was no longer concerned about the threat of Evil Soul Masters.

Dugu Feng immediately behaved with proper restraint, dedicating himself wholeheartedly to safeguarding the army’s advance.

He also became much more cautious in his cultivation.

In the blink of an eye, nearly a month passed. The vanguard led by Qian Renxue and Dugu Feng had already penetrated deep into the territory of the Star Luo Empire, advancing with unstoppable momentum and occupying three provinces.

The Spirit Hall’s Soul Master Legion had also seized four provinces surrounding the Spirit Hall. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

The two sides competed as if in a race, capturing cities and seizing territories on the battlefield.

Naturally, Dugu Feng was quite pleased with this situation. Qian Renxue was busy every day arranging troop movements, while he enjoyed a leisurely pace, simply following the army’s daily march. Even while marching, he rode on horseback, compressing his Soul Power.

His strength steadily improved bit by bit.

By the fourth month of the campaign, the left, center, and right divisions of the Tian Dou army had all approached Star Luo City, and there were signs that Bibi Dong’s Soul Master Legion was launching attacks in all directions.

By this time, everyone knew the Star Luo Empire’s fate was sealed.

Qian Renxue had already received letters of allegiance from multiple families in Star Luo City. It could be said that taking Star Luo City was a foregone conclusion.

Yet, at this point, Qian Renxue was in no hurry. She ordered the left and right divisions to gradually catch up, focusing first on swiftly capturing the remaining provinces to prevent Bibi Dong from seizing more territory.

As for Star Luo City, now a prize within her grasp, it was gradually being surrounded and could no longer escape.

The left and right divisions cut off communication between Star Luo City and the direction of Spirit City.

"Feng Xiongdi, at this point, even Bibi Dong cannot snatch Star Luo City from my hands. What does it matter if she occupies those few provinces?

The Star Luo Empire’s most elite million-strong army will all fall into my hands!"

While marching, Qian Renxue and Dugu Feng rode tall horses, brimming with pride and satisfaction.

As for Qian Renxue’s inner pride at defeating Bibi Dong, Dugu Feng could only play along. He said, "Bibi Dong has never fought in a war, so how could she understand the principle that speed is crucial in warfare?

Deploying her Soul Master Legion to occupy several provinces has been quite a struggle for her. How could she possibly compare to our strength!"

"Haha, Feng Xiongdi speaks wisely indeed."

Qian Renxue laughed heartily twice, feeling as though she had reached the peak of her life.

The two of them led the vanguard and halted at a city about a hundred kilometers from Star Luo City. They waited for over half a month until most of the provinces within Star Luo territory had been occupied before leisurely advancing toward Star Luo City.

The Zhu Family, a pawn Dugu Feng had planted, under his manipulation, surrendered and offered the city to Qian Renxue together with the Dai Family.

Qian Renxue successfully captured Star Luo City as she wished, then immediately began reorganizing the heavy armor legions and Soul Master legions of the Star Luo Empire.

This was the greatest gain from this battle.

However, these matters had little to do with Dugu Feng, allowing him to devote more time to cultivation.

He was not far from breaking through to become a Titled Douluo.

In the following days, no matter how busy Qian Renxue was, Dugu Feng immersed himself in cultivation. Finally, after two months, the liquid Soul Power in his lower Dantian had accumulated to its limit, and he could break through to Titled Douluo at any moment.

Under the guidance of the Asura Power, the Overlord Venom also transformed into a dazzling, multicolored pearl at the center of his brow.

This pearl contained all the toxins in his body, and it was connected to his flesh and blood, just like an organ of his body.

Dugu Feng knew that with just the right opportunity, the envisioned Seven-Colored Poison Pill would appear. However, Dugu Feng’s Overlord Venom had evolved once, turning into an eight-colored form.

Perhaps this pearl would also become an Eight-Colored Poison Pill.

After some thought, Dugu Feng decided to bid farewell to Qian Renxue. Over these two months, the situation in the Star Luo Empire had stabilized.

The integration of the elite Star Luo army had entered a stable phase, and there was no longer a need for Dugu Feng to remain there for protection.

In a while, even Qian Renxue planned to leave Ge Long to garrison Star Luo City and return to Heaven Dou City.

Therefore, she did not stop Dugu Feng from leaving.

Dugu Feng asked Dugu Bo to continue staying with the army to support Qian Renxue.

He himself bid farewell to Qian Renxue and swiftly headed westward.

As he traveled, Dugu Feng continued cultivating. Only after leaving the Star Luo Empire far behind did he activate his Spider Emperor Wings and fly at extreme speed.

His destination was actually the Western Sea.

While flying, Dugu Feng thought about Poseidon Island. According to the information obtained from Ning Rongrong’s Core Pearl, her Top Seven Trials were nearing completion.

The content of the God Test was no different from the original storyline. The first three trials were Sea God’s Light, breaking through the Circular Seal, and Tidal Body Refinement. These three trials alone had lasted over three years.

The remaining trials included hunting the Evil Orca King, challenging the Sacred Pillar Guardians, and enduring three incense sticks’ worth of time under the attacks of the Seven Sacred Pillar Douluo. These trials proceeded relatively quickly, with only the breaks and cultivation periods in between taking some time.

In about one or two more months, the Shrek Six Devils would complete their trials.

Compared to their cultivation levels when they first went to Poseidon Island, they had undergone earth-shaking changes.

After completing all the trials, their Soul Power levels should advance further. However, Dugu Feng himself was about to step into the realm of Titled Douluo.

Tang San and Tang Hao could no longer pose a threat to him!

His journey to the Western Sea was not for them but for the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

That’s right—Dugu Feng had already reserved the Deep Sea Demon Whale King for his Ninth Soul Ring.

His first eight Soul Rings were all Poison Attribute Soul Rings, and he was on the verge of evolving an Eight-Colored Poison Pill, nearly reaching the pinnacle in poison development.

For his Ninth Soul Ring, Dugu Feng decided to hunt the Deep Sea Demon Whale King to rapidly advance his Soul Power level.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King possessed energy equivalent to a million-year duration, which Dugu Feng coveted greatly.

After Tang San hunted the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, he absorbed its energy and made significant progress in Soul Power.

Unfortunately, Tang San’s physical strength was insufficient to fully absorb it, so he had to share part of the energy with the other six devils, as well as Xiao Bai and a few of her clan members.

Even so, the million-year Soul Ring’s energy allowed Tang San to break through the bottleneck from level ninety-six to ninety-seven, then directly rise to level ninety-nine.

These were three levels of a Super Douluo.

The Soul Power Level increase brought by the million-year Soul Ring’s energy was too tempting.

If it could raise Tang San from level ninety-six to ninety-nine, how many levels could he himself reach after absorbing his Ninth Soul Ring?

Dugu Feng dared not even imagine.

This opportunity was something Dugu Feng had to seize—it was also his shortcut to quickly catch up to Bibi Dong.
