Chapter 35: Meeting on the Gorge Road, the Golden Generation’s Doubts
"Your Majesty the Pope!"
Five men knelt on one knee. One of the two leading men looked feminine and elegant, while the other one had a faint black mist emanating from his body and looked lifeless.
They are none other than the two Titled Douluo of the Spirit Hall, namely Chrysanthemum Douluo Yueguan and Ghost Douluo Guimei!
Behind them were three people who had just been praised by Bibi Dong as the young golden generation of Spirit Hall!
The Spirit Hall's golden generation consisted of three geniuses: Xie Yue, Hu Liena, and Yan.
Xie Yue possesses the spirit Moon Blade and is recognized as the leader of the golden generation and the number one of the younger generation of the Spirit Hall.
Hu Liena is Xie Yue's younger sister. She possesses a fox spirit and is a disciple of Pope Bibi Dong. She is also the first in line to become the next Pope.
Yan possesses the ancient martial spirit, Flame Lord, and is also a rare talent!
More importantly, the three of them have already reached level 50, four-ring soul lords, and they only need to obtain soul rings to become soul kings!
"This time, the two elders will accompany you to the Death Canyon for training, where you will obtain your fifth spirit ring. When you become a spirit king, I will personally award you the Spirit Hall Purple Medal. I hope you can lead the Spirit Hall team to glory next year!"
The three of them held their heads high and said confidently, "We will follow the orders of His Holiness the Pope. We will not let you down!"
After everyone left the Pope's Palace, Yan came to Hu Liena with an attentive look on his face.
"Nana, why doesn't His Holiness allow us to go to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt soul beasts, and in the Death Canyon?"
Hu Liena glanced at Yan and snorted coldly, "You and I are not close enough for you to call me that. Please understand your position!"
Hu Liena walked in front beside Xie Yue.
"Brother, does the teacher have other plans?"
"It is not our place to guess what His Holiness the Pope is thinking, but I think it has something to do with the recent riots in the Star Forest."
"riot?"
"Well, I heard that there are two hundred thousand year old soul beasts in the deepest part of the Xingdou Great Forest! They are the overlords of that forest, the kings there!
But for some reason, a few months ago, one of the hundred thousand year old spirit beasts started to go crazy, which caused the spirit beasts in the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest to flee. Many spirit masters have died there, so His Holiness the Pope doesn't want us to go there."
So that's how it is, but why did the 100,000-year-old soul beast in the Xingdou Great Forest suddenly go berserk? What about the other 100,000-year-old soul beast?
"Yueguan, you protect them in the open."
After the ghost finished speaking, it turned into a black shadow and disappeared into its own shadow.
This is often the case when he and Yue Guan are on a mission, one in the light and the other in the dark.
Yue Guan was already used to this, and said to the three of them, "Let's get ready and gather at the entrance of Wuhun City in a little while."
Death Canyon is a crack located in the center of Douluo Continent. It is rumored that the deepest part of the canyon can even reach ten thousand meters!
There are countless soul beasts lurking in secret and hunting their prey.
Anyone who comes here may face the risk of death even if they are careful.
"Senior, have we taken the wrong path? Should we have chosen not to enter this canyon just now?" Zhu Zhuqing said with some concern as he looked at the gloomy environment around him.
"Yes, there is indeed a canyon here on the map."
This canyon is very large and it would take too much time to cross it. Going directly through the middle can save at least two or three months!
So Ye Yan walked directly into the canyon. Could it be that this place was as dangerous as the Far North and the Star Forest?
There are indeed many soul beasts around, but they are all thousand-year-old soul beasts, which can't pose any threat to Ye Yan. The only disadvantage is that it is too dark in the canyon, and it seems to be going down!
How deep is this place?
"Senior, there is a sound of fighting ahead!"
Zhu Zhuqing's ears were very sharp. Although they were far away, she could hear some subtle sounds!
Of course Ye Yan also felt it. Not only that, he also knew that there was a Titled Douluo in front of him.
Isn't it said that Titled Douluo are extremely rare on the mainland? Why does it seem like he can run into Titled Douluo wherever he goes?
At this time, Yue Guan, who was standing on the cliff behind Hu Liena and others, also looked towards Ye Yan's direction.
"Someone is coming."
A sound came from Yueguan's shadow, and it was the ghost that came back from investigating over there.
"Who is it?"
"I'm not sure, but both of them look very young. The girl's soul power is not strong, it should not exceed Soul King. The soul power of the other man seems to be suppressed to around Soul Emperor, but in fact, they are at least Soul Douluo level!"
"Even you can't see his true strength?"
Even ghosts can't see through him, there must be some secret on him, or maybe his strength exceeds that of ghosts!
But Guimei said that the man looked very young and probably just had some special soul guides or something like that on him.
"Should we help them get out of here?"
"No, since it's a training, let them handle it themselves except when it's a matter of life and death."
With the speed of Ye Yan and Zhu Zhuqing, they arrived here just after the battle between Hu Liena and others ended.
"It is really rare that a ten thousand year old fire spirit beast was killed by three spirit masters at the spirit ancestor level."
When Zhu Zhuqing heard what Ye Yan said, she immediately understood that the three people were soul masters at the Soul Sect level, and the soul beasts they hunted were ten thousand year level!
"Senior, should we leave?"
The other party was obviously about to start absorbing the spirit ring. If an outsider appeared at this time, they would probably not be able to absorb it with peace of mind.
Just as Yan was about to sit down and absorb the soul ring, he was stopped by Xie Yue.
Xie Yue looked at Ye Yan and asked loudly: "Who are you?"
The danger of the Death Canyon is so great that even they need two Titled Douluo-level elders to lead them before they dare to enter. And these two people actually dare to appear here. What are their intentions?
Could it be that they were sent by other forces to assassinate their younger generation?
But the other party looks about the same age as them. Could it be that he is also here to gain experience?
But if that's the case, why not even bring a protector?
So suspicious!
Ye Yan didn't know that Xie Yue had already thought of many possibilities in just a short while, but he walked straight forward with Zhu Zhuqing.
Xie Yue and his companions looked at Ye Yan vigilantly, and would attack immediately if there was any unusual movement!
But after a while, Ye Yan really just took Zhu Zhuqing and left!
"Brother, they seem to be just passing by?"
Xie Yue shook his head and said to Hu Liena, "Let's take turns guarding Yan, so that we can be prepared in case the enemy suddenly attacks back!"
