Chapter 390: Flame King Candidate
Tick, tick, tick.

"Is the house leaking again?"

There seemed to be a never-ending sound of dripping water in a corner, as if urging Wu Juanjuan to open her eyes as soon as possible.

The storm is coming, and if the gap is not filled quickly, this house will hardly survive the storm.

She felt a pain in the back of her head and opened her eyes. What she saw was not the familiar ceiling, but a terrifying scene she had never seen before.

It was an enclosed room without windows. The dim candlelight was the only source of light, casting mottled shadows on the moss-covered walls.

The ground was wet and had an inexplicably sticky texture. The broken wooden door was tightly closed, and the air that could not circulate was filled with the smell of dampness and rust.

"This, this is?"

She struggled to get up, but was surprised to find herself tied to the wooden bed in a spread-eagle position. The rusty iron chains were wrapped around her, and there were heavy shackles on her wrists and ankles.

Turning her neck, the only part of her body that could move freely, she found a row of cold torture instruments quietly placed in the corner of the room. The deep red stains on the joints looked particularly strange in the dim candlelight.

"Oh, you're awake."

Amid the gloomy torture instruments, a thin figure slowly turned his head, threw the rag in his hand into the bucket at his feet, and said, "I thought you wouldn't wake up until tomorrow."

The man was only about 1.5 meters tall, a head shorter than Wu Juanjuan. His body looked particularly tall and terrifying against the candlelight and torture instruments.

Wu Juanjuan opened her mouth slightly but couldn't utter a word. She was obviously frightened by the scene before her.

Seeing this, the man took the initiative to walk to Wu Juanjuan with a brighter candle, and stroked her young and moist face with his big, withered hands, his eyes full of fanaticism and cruelty.

He liked this scene because the cornered prey always exuded a charming scent.

The taste of fear.

The man took a deep breath, a twisted but satisfied smile appeared on his face, and he slowly said, "Little girl, lament your unfortunate fate. Who made you see things you shouldn't have seen?"

"Let me think about it, he seemed to want me to tell you this"

The man cleared his throat and said in the most dignified tone possible: "The ugly behavior of the Qi family must not be revealed. In order to protect the dignity of the Qi family, please die."

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha"

The man's wild laughter made the atmosphere in the basement even more depressing, as if in the next moment, he would perform the cruel drama that had been repeated countless times here.

The wild laughter suddenly stopped for no reason, and the man said calmly: "You didn't cry, which is good. I hate crybabies. Don't worry, after the other appetizers are finished, you will be the last meal I enjoy."

"Ah~"

Seeing Gu You lose consciousness, Dugu Bo no longer acted like a Titled Douluo while there was no one around, and sighed without paying attention to his image.

I was sleeping soundly at home, how come I suddenly found myself on a hot and humid southern island thousands of miles away from home?

It’s obvious that this old snake doesn’t like traveling far away and usually likes to stay in his own small yard.

Well, the world is still a good place and it’s not all bad news.

At least Gu You was right about one thing, the sunshine at the beach is really good and it is quite comfortable to bask in it.

Maybe you can come and stay for a while from time to time.

I don't know when it started, but Dugu Bo also got Gu You's bad habit of daydreaming. While thinking about whether to buy a house or build it himself, he took out an ordinary small cylinder from his pocket.

After carefully reading the labels and instructions for use, Dugu Bo held it by the butt, pointed its head towards the sky, and gently pressed the small protruding button on it.

whoosh~~~bang!
Brilliant fireworks exploded in the sky, and fifteen seconds later, another identical firework rose on the northern coast.

"Oh, this thing is quite useful."

Dugu Bo was amazed.

He didn't expect that this small cylinder called a "flare launcher" could contact people far away through light and explosion sounds without the use of soul power.

The key to the problem is not the "light and explosion sound", but "not using soul power".

He thought that this was a new soul guide Tang San had made for entertainment in his spare time while he was busy researching artificial soul bones.

After all, there is no gunpowder in Douluo Continent, and with Dugu Bo's imagination, it is difficult to imagine a tool that can work without soul power.

Keeping in mind the principle of not littering, Dugu Bo was about to put away the used small cylinders.

He never expected that a big hairy hand would suddenly reach out from behind him and easily pull the small cylinder out of his hand.

"Oh, what an interesting little thing."

"?!"

A hearty and old voice sounded, and in an instant, Dugu Bo's hair stood on end.

It was not an illusion. There was no illusionist in Douluo Continent who was strong enough to make a Titled Douluo fall into an illusion. The sound was very close, the arm was less than half a foot away from the head, and the burning heat that penetrated into the bone marrow came from the ear, as if it could roast the head through the air.

If this hand had attacked just now, the consequences would be...
Dugu Bo didn't dare to think further. Being able to bypass the perception of a Titled Douluo and get so close, the enemy's strength was immeasurable.

Gu You had just started absorbing spirit rings, and now he was in trouble.

Just as Dugu Bo was considering whether to give it a try or just pretend to be submissive, an old voice suddenly said, "Don't be nervous, human boy. I'm not here to look for you."

"I heard there's a potential Cinder Blade Dragon Slayer here. Yes, it's the one lying in front of you."

"I didn't expect it to die. Can you tell me how it died?"

Coming to this familiar yet strange dark world once again, Gu You said that he has become proficient in it.

Backstroke, freestyle, breaststroke, butterfly stroke, dog paddle
In this dark world without direction and time, Gu You had the perfect opportunity to review his preparations for Poseidon Island.

After traveling to Douluo Continent and knowing that he was in the first timeline, Gu You began to make plans for the future.

In addition to building a good relationship with the mistress, every normal human being can think of preparing in advance for known opportunities after awakening the martial soul and being able to practice.

First, rule out the Eight Spider Lance, which is a useless opportunity, and then rule out the Plate Crystal Gold, which is likely to be unobtainable after it has nothing to do with Yu Xiaogang.

The remaining general opportunities were the immortal grass of Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, the territory of the City of Slaughter, and the soul power and god-given soul ring obtained for free from Sea God Island.

Xiao San could handle the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, and only fools who were willing to become crazy would go to the City of Slaughter. The only remaining Sea God Island was the top priority for Gu You at that time.

The first step is to tread water. No matter which world you are in, as long as you have extraordinary powers, you must first master climbing trees and then learn to tread water. It can be said that this is a must for every time traveler.

The exceptions are the system bosses, and the bosses with innate twin and triple martial spirits at level 20 or 30.

Since you want to learn how to tread water, you must be able to swim. If you practice treading water but can't swim, do you want to drown in the stream in Holy Soul Village?

Gu You didn't mention Seagod Island, but Tang San and the others learned to swim without realizing it, and they were pretty good at it. Xiao Wu: Yes, every time I fall into the water, there's a hateful bastard holding his stomach and laughing at me on the shore. Anyone can learn to swim.

All in all, the result is good. Under Gu You's whipping, everyone is ready for Sea God Island. Regardless of the result, whether it is an enemy or a friend, the initiative is not in the hands of the Sea Soul Master.

The two-on-two fighting spirit battle in the seaside fighting spirit arena was just a test for Gu You.

The result was quite gratifying. Gu You didn't use any soul skills, but beat Bai Lang underwater until his head was covered with bruises.

If there is a real problem, it might be that the game is not enjoyable enough.

After swimming in the void for who knows how long, Gu You, who was already tired of swimming without any substance, suddenly remembered something very important.

"Where is the Dragon Slayer Blade?"

Xiao Wu in the original novel seemed to have said that soul masters who wanted to absorb soul rings that were more than ten thousand years old would suffer from the mental shock of soul beasts when absorbing the soul rings, and they had to withstand it in order to absorb it successfully.

There is no failed example in the original book for reference, but Xiao Wu herself is a soul beast, so it should be somewhat credible.

The question is, where is the Dragon Slayer Blade of Jhin?
Gu You looked around and found that after waiting for so long, the Cinder Blade and Dragon Slayer really did not appear.

"Oh, no, I want to try out what mental shock is."

The cooked experimental report flew away. Just as Gu You was beating his chest and stamping his feet, a little light seemed to appear in the distance. Without saying a word, he put the mental shock behind his mind and rushed towards the direction of the light.

Rushing into the light from the endless darkness, Gu You, as a spiritual body, adapted to the change in brightness and was surprised to find that he had once again come to the ancient Jurassic world.

The Glacier Dinosaur and Meteorite Odinosaur are nowhere to be found, but the other small dinosaurs remain the same, giving people the illusion that they have nothing to do unless they fight.

Other than that, everything was calm and fine.

So, what about big brother?
When he absorbed the third soul ring, he didn't see the movie of the terrifying beast. Gu You thought that his elder brother looked down on the golden lion and didn't show it to him.

I didn't expect that my eldest brother would not even look down upon the Dragon Slayer Blade that I had spent a day and a night to complete.

As expected of the big brother of the Devil Beast, his vision is extraordinary. If this continues, if Gu You wants to watch the third part of the movie, he can only go to the Xingdou Great Forest to find trouble with the beasts.

If we count the soul beasts that have appeared in Douluo Continent, the only ones that can catch the eye of Big Brother Monster are the ferocious beasts with extraordinary combat power.

It’s not that Gu You is heartless, it’s mainly because he really can’t find more ways to entertain himself.

Fishing, playing chess, cockfighting, cricket fighting, watching plays, watching singing and dancing, listening to storytelling by soul masters or rich people can go to the soul fighting arena to watch soul fighting. These basically cover all the entertainment methods in Douluo Continent.

Think about it, besides fishing, are there other entertainment activities that are suitable for the physique of modern people?
It's impossible to let Gu You release Liming, the cock used for guarding his house, and watch it reach the top of the cockfighting world.

Reaching the Soul Sect at the age of thirteen is already embarrassing for a time traveler. Adding the epic title of "Cockfighting King of Douluo Continent" makes the shame ten times greater.

Therefore, the action war film "The Rise of the Ultimate Conductive Monster" is one of the few remaining hobbies for Gu You.

Brother Devilbeast, you are taking away even this little hobby. That is too much.

Gu You silently complained in his heart.

"Roar--!!!"

"Ok?"

It was a very familiar roar, as if I had just heard it not long ago.

Gu You looked around and discovered that the big brother of the Devil Beast did not appear because he had turned into the Ultimate Conductive Devil Beast again. At the same time, he also found the Cinder Blade Slasher Dragon jumping at his feet.

Its entire body is red, with a large amount of white smoke coming out of the heat sink on its back, and a dazzling sword-shaped tail.

There is no doubt that this is the hot state that Gu You accidentally avoided.

".really interesting."

Gu You was wrong. A hint of amusement flashed in the eyes of the Ultimate Conductive Monster, and it stretched out its evil claws towards Zhanlong.

"Roar?"

"Hehehe, you came just in time. Let me see if you are developing normally."

On the seventh day on the island, the weather was cloudy and was about to turn into a severe storm.

The sky was gloomy and covered with dark clouds. The thick clouds were like a heavy lead curtain, making it hard for the people underneath to breathe.

The clear skyline of the past gradually became blurred, the sea was surging, and the layers of waves were rolling in the intermittent wind, as if an invisible giant hand was stirring the sea water intentionally or unintentionally.

Gu You slowly opened his eyes and felt the fourth soul skill that had been completed in his body, and his heart was filled with ecstasy.

After going through so much hardship, he finally got the most suitable soul skill. Xiao San, even if you have a domain, it's still ten years too early for you to defeat me!
Before he could burst into laughter, a cup of hot water was extended to him from the left corner, and an unfamiliar voice said kindly, "Are you awake? Do you want to drink some water first?"

"Thank you, this one"

After taking the cup of water, Gu You turned his head and saw a big furry face occupying his entire field of vision. He hesitated and said, "Mr. Monkey?"

"Mr. Monkey? Human boys are so interesting."

The hairy big hand slapped Gu You's back with such great force that if it were Yu Tianheng, he would probably be dead.

There was no sign of any malicious intent from it. Dugu Bo and the others in the distance were unharmed except for a large bump on their foreheads. Gu You drank a sip of hot water, forced a friendly smile and asked in confusion, "What do you want from me, Mr. Monkey?"

"Hey, I like you kid. Other humans are always speechless when they see me."

He flashed to the front and finally had the chance to see Mr. Monkey's true appearance.

It was about the same size as a human, about 1.7 meters tall, with dark grey skin that looked incredibly tough, and fluffy golden hair that glowed faintly even on cloudy days.

His eyes were sharp, deep and full of spirit, with a spark of "wisdom" flickering in the depths. On his forehead was a burning purple-red flame without any heat or energy fluctuations.

Even though the attitude was friendly, Gu You did not dare to overstep the mark.

After all, this is a hundred thousand year old soul beast that has never appeared in the original book.

"My name is Hanuman, and I am the candidate for the Fire King who reigns over Yasha Island and commands the Flame Monkey clan, the Flame King Beast Hanuman."

"What about you, human boy."

"Candidate for the Fire King?"

When he heard the noun appear for the first time, Gu You silently memorized it in his heart.

Nodding slightly, Gu You said without losing face: "My name is Gu You, I am the strongest captain who reigns over the Holy Soul Village and controls the Royal Fighting Team, the terrifying beast Gu You."
