The Lord-Dark Cursed Cat Demon's size wasn't much different from ordinary cat demons, only its color was different.
Its body and limbs were black, with golden hair and a tail, radiating an ominous aura that made Wang Teng, who possessed two light-attribute martial souls, feel uneasy at first sight.
Beside the Lord-Dark Cursed Cat Demon were three ordinary cat demons and two throwing centurions. As usual, Wang Teng ignored the smaller monsters, found a good position, and aimed his rifle directly at the Lord-Dark Cursed Cat Demon.
*Bang*
A soul-power bullet burst forth, blooming into a small flower of blood on the Dark Cursed Cat Demon's body.
Lord-level monsters not only had long health bars, but their defense was also much stronger than ordinary monsters. After taking a soul-power bullet, the Dark Cursed Cat Demon let out a sharp cry, and the smaller monsters immediately surrounded it, becoming vigilant.
However, it was all in vain. By the time they discovered Wang Teng, the culprit, the Lord - Dark Curse Cat Demon, who had already taken several soul power bullets from Wang Teng, was lying on the ground, barely alive.
Before the monsters could rush forward to gang up on Wang Teng, the heavily wounded Lord - Dark Curse Cat Demon was already killed by Wang Teng.
Amidst a series of pitiful howls, the monsters, along with their leader's demise, ended their lives.
Notification: Cleared the dungeon - Deep Dark Forest, obtained 200 Lord Essence.
This time, the Lord's Treasure Chest didn't contain any equipment, only a money bag containing 120 Gold Soul Coins.
However, Wang Teng wasn't too disappointed. After all, ordinary equipment was available in the system shop, and the equipment he got was all useless to him, essentially a bargain for the system shop.
After collecting his loot, Wang Teng returned to the outside world.
Having completed both dungeons for the day, Wang Teng retrieved the equipment he had materialized and then sat on his bed to practice meditation.
Although he could level up by fighting monsters in dungeons, he couldn't neglect his regular meditation and cultivation. The 'experience' gained in dungeons was about as fast as the soul power gained through daily meditation.
Wang Teng estimated that he might be able to break through to become a Title Douluo by the age of 20?
"Hmm, that's a possibility! Let's set a small goal first: to become the youngest Title Douluo on the Douluo Continent."
If others knew about Wang Teng's idea, they would definitely laugh at him, since the well-known Haotian Douluo Tang Hao was already over forty when he broke through to become a Title Douluo.
However, Wang Teng did know that Bibi Dong's breakthrough to Title Douluo was definitely faster than Tang Hao's.
Although Wang Teng didn't know exactly when Bibi Dong became a Title Douluo, it was definitely shorter than Tang Hao's. After all, from the original work, we know that Bibi Dong hunted down Xiao Wu's mother after becoming a Title Douluo, using her as the soul ring for her second martial soul.
At that time, Bibi Dong was already a Title Douluo, and was only in her thirties. Even though Bibi Dong's advancement to the title level was fast, she was still far behind Tang San later on.
However, Tang San's advancement was cheat-like, so they can't be compared. And in this life, with Wang Teng, whether the Sea God can find a successor in the future is still uncertain!
Early the next morning, Wang Teng finished his daily tasks. He had already planned his daily schedule.
Every morning, he would finish a dungeon run, then spend the morning exploring the ocean of knowledge under the guidance of his tutor, Xu Yue. In the afternoon, he would practice his soul power control skills, along with some marksmanship. In the evening, he would meditate and cultivate until he was close to his limit before going to sleep.
It could be said that Wang Teng's daily schedule was now fully packed. In the afternoon, Wang Teng began practicing soul power control in the small courtyard outside his room.
Soul power control wasn't difficult to practice; there were many methods, but most soul masters didn't pay much attention to it.
Wang Teng didn't need to develop any self-created soul skills. After all, he already had firearms, and compared to creating soul skills, shooting was obviously much more convenient and powerful, so Wang Teng was too lazy to develop one.
Wang Teng wanted to practice controlling his soul power because his soul power cultivation speed was fast, and he could also increase the age of his soul rings and soul bones in the future, which would significantly boost his soul power. If he couldn't control it in a short time, it would be bad and affect his future cultivation.
Wang Teng even thought that in the future, his two martial souls would need a total of eighteen soul rings. If they all turned golden, it wouldn't be impossible for him to fight against gods, right?
After all, in Douluo Continent, although gods have infinite lifespans, their strength is indeed somewhat lacking. In the original work, Qian Renxue, who became a first-level god, the Angel God, was actually severely injured by a hidden weapon created by Tang San, which was a bit absurd. Although that hidden weapon wasn't an ordinary one; it was a top-tier item.
However, in Wang Teng's mind, this just meant that even gods were nothing special. Once he acquired eighteen million-year soul rings and a body full of million-year soul bones, would he be inferior to a mere hidden weapon?
Besides, although soul beasts could live long lives, it wasn't very useful. In other worlds, living for a hundred thousand years without possessing world-destroying power would be a waste of such a long lifespan!
It could be said that the Douluo Continent was cruel. Especially for soul beasts. Looking at an ornamental chrysanthemum beside him, Wang Teng released his soul power from his hand, trying to condense it into the shape of a chrysanthemum.
Unfortunately, looking at the indescribable lump in his hand, Wang Teng was incredibly embarrassed.
"This is too difficult!"
Although he said that, Wang Teng wouldn't give up easily. However, he changed his goal, changing from three-dimensional to two-dimensional, intending to first form a chrysanthemum image.
The training of soul power control couldn't be done in a day or two; it required Wang Teng's persistent efforts. In the evening, his younger brother Wang Chong came over.
"Brother, what are you doing?"
Wang Chong asked curiously, seeing his older brother staring at his palm.
"Your brother is practicing his soul power control techniques."
"Oh? Sounds impressive."
"Of course!" Wang Teng said proudly.
"Brother, what's that in your hand?"
Wang Chong looked at the scribbled pattern made of soul power in Wang Teng's hand, somewhat puzzled.
"Look, doesn't it look a lot like that chrysanthemum over there?" "
..." After a moment of silence, Wang Chong, being a mischievous child, hadn't learned to speak tactfully and naturally told the truth.
"It's not even as good as what I just drew!"
Instantly, Wang Teng's face darkened. Taking a deep breath, Wang Teng felt that his younger brother's future path had become too narrow.
