Douluo Continent: Dragon Shadow Rebirth

After returning from the deep sea ruins, Chu Tian and his companions returned to their camp with a lot of harvest. When their companions in the camp saw that they had returned safely, they all gathered around them and curiously asked about their experience in the deep sea ruins.

"Oh, you don't know, it's really dangerous and mysterious in there." Zhang Meng ate the food prepared for him excitedly, and said, "There are strange statues and mechanisms everywhere, and there are also large crystals that may release dark forces!"

Ye Li smiled and added: "But we also gained a lot. We got an ancient book that records the secrets of the origin of the martial soul world and the methods of soul power cultivation."

"Wow, that's awesome!" a young soul master said enviously.

Chu Tian shook his head proudly at the side: "Of course, don't you see who we are?"

Qin Feng took out the ancient book and said to everyone: "The soul power cultivation method in this ancient book looks very unique. We must study it carefully. Maybe it can help us improve our strength to a higher level."

So, in the following days, Chu Tian and others began to study the soul power cultivation methods in ancient books in seclusion.

Chu Tian found a quiet mountaintop, where he sat cross-legged, and tried to guide his soul power to run a new route in his body according to the records in the ancient books. At the beginning, he felt very uncomfortable, and his soul power always deviated from the track halfway.

"This is not as simple as me flying in the air." Chu Tian frowned and muttered.

But he did not give up, and tried again and again. Finally, he succeeded in making his soul power run a circle along the new route. He felt that his soul power became more condensed, and he was more relaxed and free when flying.

"Haha, I did it!" Chu Tian excitedly somersaulted several times in the air.

Zhang Meng brought the giant rock bear to an empty valley. He practiced the fusion of strength and soul power with the giant rock bear according to the method in the ancient book. They first set up many huge stones in the valley as targets, and then Zhang Meng concentrated his soul power and injected it into the giant rock bear's attack.

The giant rock bear rushed towards the stone, and with a wave of its paw, the force that originally could only smash the stone actually smashed the stone into powder, raising a cloud of dust.

"Wow, this is so powerful!" Zhang Meng jumped up with joy.

Ye Li and the Frost Fox were practicing in a quiet ice cave. The method in the ancient book required her to deeply integrate her soul power with the ice attribute soul power of the Frost Fox. Ye Li closed her eyes, felt the fluctuations of the Frost Fox's soul power, and slowly moved her soul power closer.

At first, the two soul powers were somewhat mutually exclusive, but Ye Li was not in a hurry. She followed the guidance in the ancient book and gradually adjusted the frequency of the soul power. After some effort, the two soul powers finally merged perfectly.

Ye Li opened her eyes and waved her hand gently. A thorn of ice that was colder and harder than before shot towards the wall of the ice cave. It penetrated the wall directly and disappeared into the snow outside the cave.

"Great, Frost Fox, we succeeded!" Ye Li hugged the Frost Fox happily.

Qin Feng was in his tent, holding the Dragon Shadow Sword, and following the sword training methods in the ancient book, he began to re-understand the true meaning of the sword. He no longer relied solely on strength and speed, but integrated soul power into every sword move.

He swung the Dragon Shadow Sword, and complex soul runes flashed on the sword. As he practiced, the air in the tent seemed to be cut by the sword blade, making a slight whistling sound.

Suddenly, Qin Feng thrust out a sword. This sword seemed simple, but it contained endless soul power. Wherever the sword pointed, a deep sword mark appeared on the wall of the tent, as neat as tofu cut by a sharp weapon.

"This feeling is really wonderful." Qin Feng looked at the sword in his hand with satisfaction.

Although Xiaohua was young, she was not to be outdone. She took Xiaobai to a corner of the camp and practiced according to the cultivation method suitable for her in the ancient book. She focused on communicating with Xiaobai and tried to make Xiaobai's ability better cooperate with her own soul power.

After a period of training, Xiaobai's body became more agile and faster. Xiaohua was also able to use her soul power more skillfully. She could apply a soul power shield on Xiaobai's body to make Xiaobai safer in battle.

Just when everyone was immersed in the joy of the results of their practice, a sudden noise was heard outside the camp.

"What's going on?" Qin Feng walked out of the tent and asked puzzledly.

There was a group of strangers standing outside the camp. They were dressed in gorgeous clothes and looked very important. The leader was a young man with a handsome face but a look of arrogance in his eyes.

"Are you Chu Tian and others?" the young man asked. Although he was asking, his tone sounded like he was questioning.

Chu Tian flew to the man and looked him over: "We are, who are you? What are you doing in our camp?"

The young man sneered and said, "I am the prince of the Xingyao Empire. I heard that you found an ancient book in the deep sea ruins. This prince is very interested in the ancient book. If you know what's good for you, hand it over to me."

Chu Tian frowned: "We went through great risks to get this ancient book, why should we give it to you?"

A guard beside the prince shouted, "How dare you! How dare you be so rude to His Royal Highness. You should obediently give His Royal Highness what he wants."

Zhang Meng came over and said dissatisfiedly: "You are robbing us by force, but we are not afraid of you."

The prince raised his eyebrows and said, "It seems that you are not willing to accept my offer. I have brought many experts with me today. If you do not hand over the ancient book, don't blame me for being rude."

As he spoke, a group of guards and soul masters behind the prince summoned their soul beasts and assumed fighting postures.

Qin Feng stepped forward and said calmly: "Your Highness, this ancient book is very important to us, we can't give it to you. If Your Highness wants to know the contents, we can study it together, but it is unreasonable to ask for it directly."

The prince snorted, "I don't have time to talk to you guys, just come on!"

Following the prince's order, his men rushed towards Chu Tian and others.

Chu Tian immediately flew into the air and attacked the enemy. His soul blade was sharper than before, easily slicing through the clothes of several guards, forcing them to retreat in embarrassment.

Zhang Meng ordered the Giant Rock Bear to rush towards the enemy. The Giant Rock Bear's huge body was like a chariot, and wherever it went, the enemies were knocked away.

Ye Li and Frost Fox also joined the battle. Frost Fox released cold air, instantly freezing several approaching enemies. Ye Li used soul power to control the ice spikes and shot them at the enemies.

Qin Feng held the Dragon Shadow Sword and moved freely in the enemy formation. His sword moves were sharp, and each sword could accurately pierce the enemy's vital points, but he did not kill them, but only injured them and made them lose their ability to fight.

Xiaohua hid behind a big rock, and she asked Xiaobai to harass the enemy from behind. Xiaobai was extremely fast, running around behind the enemy, and from time to time he released a beam of light to distract the enemy.

The prince was furious when he saw his men gradually losing the upper hand. He personally joined the battle and summoned his soul beast - a unicorn with a golden glow all over its body.

As soon as the unicorn appeared, it exuded a powerful pressure. It rushed towards Chu Tian, ​​and the golden soul power flashed on the unicorn's horn, and it was about to pierce Chu Tian.

Chu Tian dodged quickly, he felt that this unicorn was very powerful.

"Hmph, let's see where you can hide!" the prince shouted, controlling the unicorn to chase after him.

Qin Feng saw that Chu Tian was in danger, so he rushed to the unicorn. He jumped onto the unicorn's back and held the Dragon Shadow Sword against the prince's throat.

"Your Highness, please stop. This will not benefit anyone." Qin Feng said.

The prince's face turned very ugly, but he knew he was at a disadvantage, so he waved his hand to ask his men to stop.

"Don't think you've won like this. This prince won't let you go." The prince said viciously.

At this moment, there was another sound of horse hooves outside the camp. Everyone turned around and saw a group of knights running towards the camp.

Leading the group was an old man riding a white horse, exuding a peaceful aura.

"What's going on? Why are they fighting here?" asked the old man.

Chu Tian and the others, as well as the prince, looked at the old man with some confusion.

The old man got off his horse and walked in front of everyone. He looked at Chu Tian and others, then looked at the prince, then smiled and said, "I am the state teacher of the Xingyao Empire. I heard that there is some dispute here, so I came to mediate."

When the prince saw the Imperial Master coming, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Imperial Master, these people have obtained an ancient book. This prince wants to study the ancient book, but they refuse to hand it over."

The Imperial Master looked at Chu Tian and the others, then said to the prince: "Your Highness, since they have obtained this ancient book through great difficulty, it should belong to them. We in the Xingyao Empire cannot do such a thing of robbery."

The prince said somewhat dissatisfiedly: "But Imperial Master, that ancient book may contain great value."

The Imperial Master shook his head and said, "Your Highness, we should respect the fruits of others' labor. If Your Highness is really interested in ancient books, you can negotiate and cooperate with them to conduct joint research."

After hearing what the imperial teacher said, the prince was reluctant but could not refute it.

The Imperial Master then said to Chu Tian and the others, "My dear friends, Your Highness was also impulsive. I hope you don't mind. I think Your Highness is also full of curiosity about the knowledge in the ancient books."

Qin Feng nodded: "Master Imperial Master, we also understand your Highness's idea. If your Highness really wants to study ancient books together, we can consider it."

After hearing what Qin Feng said, the prince's expression eased a little: "Well, since the Imperial Master has said so, let's study it together."

Therefore, under the mediation of the national teacher, the prince and Chu Tian and others made peace. They began to study the contents of the ancient book together. In the process, the prince was also attracted by the soul power cultivation methods of Chu Tian and others, and he realized how reckless his previous behavior was.

As time went by, they discovered more secrets about the martial arts world from ancient books and shared these secrets with more soul masters. The overall strength of the soul masters in the entire martial arts world was improved due to the spread of this new knowledge, and Chu Tian and others also made more friends because of this incident, and their reputations spread more widely in the martial arts world.

However, they know that the world of martial arts is still full of unknowns and challenges, and they need to continue to explore and practice in order to cope with possible crises in the future.
