Chapter 1 Star Forest

“We’ve been walking for several days, we should be there!” Huo Yuhao looked at the instructions on the simple map in his hand, then raised his head to look at the fork in the road ahead, confirming that they were very close to the Star Dou Great Forest.

A girl with a relatively small figure but delicate features sat under the tree behind him, holding a very strange pure black spider doll in her arms and a small package on her back. She blinked her big eyes and asked, "Brother, are we there yet?"

“Well, we are not far from the Star Dou Great Forest.” Huo Yuhao wiped the sweat from his forehead with a smile on his face.

Huo Yuxi got a positive answer, and happily stood up and walked to Huo Yuhao's side. She moved her ears and heard the sound of flowing water coming from not far away.

"Brother, there seems to be a sound of water over there!"

Water means fish. They have been eating dry food these days and they are both very excited to finally have a chance to improve their diet.

Huo Yuhao's martial soul is the Spirit Eye, which is of spiritual attribute, and his six senses are much stronger than those of ordinary people. He jumped onto the stone in front of him and activated his martial soul.

Sure enough, less than two hundred meters away there was a stream about three meters wide. The water was so clear that you could clearly see the tails of the fish swaying in it.

"Xixi, the fish in the stream are so big, let's go over there quickly." He jumped off the rock and took Huo Yuxi's hand and walked over there.

Hearing this, Huo Yuxi's eyes lit up. There was nothing she could do. Her health had not been very good to begin with, and she had been running around these past few days. She had not eaten or slept well, and now she looked a lot thinner.

When she came to the stream, she quickly washed her face. She hadn't washed it for several days and looked like a little beggar.

Huo Yuhao broke off a branch at the side, took out the White Tiger Dagger and sharpened the front end, then walked to the stream, closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened his eyes, his pupils lit up with golden light. The details in the water were instantly magnified in his eyes, and the speed slowed down countless times.

"Shh."

He acted extremely quickly, stabbing the fish's body with the branch in his hand. When he lifted it up, a black carp had been caught.

The fish was not very big, and one was definitely not enough for the two of them, so Huo Yuhao caught several more in succession.

"That's great. We don't have to eat that dry food anymore." Huo Yuxi looked at the fish wrapped in leaves happily. "The fish won't spoil easily after it's been roasted. We can save some for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."

Huo Yuhao also had a relaxed smile on his face. Unlike the oppressive atmosphere of the Duke's Mansion, here there were only the relaxing sounds of birds singing and flowing water, which made people relax involuntarily.

He looked down at the White Tiger Dagger in his hand and thought of his mother, that frail yet tough woman. A faint sadness came over him. When Huo Yuxi saw his expression, she knew what he was thinking.

She also missed her mother. Since she was born, her mother had always favored her because her physical condition was worse than her brother. Even when she died, she was still worried about her frail daughter.

For so long, she had tried her best to restrain herself from thinking about it, but now the sadness was aroused and she couldn't suppress it at all.

Huo Yuhao threw these thoughts out and looked up to see Huo Yuxi looking depressed.

"Xixi." He stood up, put the fish on the grill, wiped the tears from her face, and comforted her: "Mom has just gone to live in another world. We must work hard to cultivate, and then we can avenge her."

"Yeah." Huo Yuxi knew that what he said was right, but he just couldn't control himself.

“Okay, don’t think too much. The fish will be grilled soon. Let’s eat something first.” Huo Yuhao simply changed the subject.

Sure enough, the aroma of grilled fish filled the air, and Huo Yuxi's appetite was immediately aroused, and his attention was successfully diverted.

Huo Yuhao controlled the heat perfectly, and the fish was cooked quickly. Huo Yuxi ate two of them in a row. After eating and drinking, Huo Yuhao sat in meditation to recover his strength. His talent was not good. Although he had a rare spiritual attribute martial soul, his innate soul power was only level one, which was completely different from Huo Yuxi's innate soul power of level 15. He had practiced hard for five years and put in several times more effort than others, but now he had just reached level 10.

This time, their target is his first soul ring. The Star Dou Great Forest is vast and has many types of soul beasts, but soul rings have attribute restrictions, and soul beasts with spiritual attributes are very rare. They don't know when they will be able to find a suitable one.

After resting for about ten minutes, the ground suddenly shook.

Huo Yuxi immediately became alert, "Brother!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Yuhao immediately opened his eyes and stood up, protecting Huo Yuxi behind him and activating his spirit soul to explore the surroundings.

He didn't know what kind of soul beast it was, but it was very fast. Even with the help of his spiritual eyes, he could only barely see a blurry shadow.

At the same time, a circle of white and a circle of yellow spirit rings lit up under Huo Yuxi's body. Then the cloth pattern on the outer surface of the spider doll in her arms faded away, and it shrank to the size of the palm of her hand and stood in her hand.

The colorful body and legs are pink and blue, shining strangely under the sunlight.

He didn't know where the target was, and he didn't move around. He was ready and waiting for Huo Yuhao's instructions.

"Xixi, 4 meters to the right."

“First soul skill, Nightmare Blade.” Huo Yuxi reacted instantly, and the spider’s pink legs transformed into eight sharp blades, attacking the target.

Nightmare Blade, a group attack skill, the blade is highly poisonous. The injured person will be instantly pulled into an illusion, and the body will be corroded by the toxin until death.

The soul beast was very fast and dodged the attack with a flash, then pounced towards the two people with anger.

With the help of his spiritual eyes, Huo Yuhao's reaction ability became extremely sharp. Feeling a sense of crisis, he quickly pushed Huo Yuxi aside, quickly grasped the White Tiger Dagger with both hands, and stabbed forward fiercely.

"Puff." An invisible force blew him away and he hit the big tree behind him. The blood he spat out instantly dyed the front of his body red.

At this time, he also successfully saw the soul beast clearly. It looked like a cheetah, about one meter long, with black and purple leopard spots all over its body, and a pair of fierce eyes.

“Brother.” Huo Yuxi saw Huo Yuhao vomiting blood and ran over nervously.

At this moment, something unexpected happened. A brown bear about two meters tall suddenly appeared, grabbed her neck with its sharp claws and ran into the Star Dou Forest.

"Xixi."

It happened in a flash. Huo Yuhao didn't care about his own injuries or the soul beast that was eyeing him from behind. He stood up and chased after it. People's potential will be stimulated in emergency situations, and the cheetah just couldn't catch up with him.

Huo Yuxi was very panicked at first. The tears in her eyes were shaken out on the road and then dried by the wind. She forced herself to calm down and try to use her soul skills.

But the gap in strength was so huge that the brown bear's hide wasn't even broken.

It would be useless even if her soul power was exhausted if she continued like this. She had to think of other ways.
