Chapter 176 Star Forest (46)

three days later.

Lin Yuan, Huo Yuzhe and Xue Di finally arrived at the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest.

As the distance got closer, the air around seemed to become fresher and moister.

In the early morning, the morning mist has not yet completely dissipated, casting a mysterious veil over the vast forest. The sunlight penetrates the mist and shines on the tall and dense trees, creating a mottled and colorful scene.

Towering trees, their trunks so thick they could barely be embraced, stood silently. The ground was covered with a thick carpet of fallen leaves, their branches interwoven like a giant green net.

Occasionally, a few rays of sunlight penetrate the gaps between the leaves, projecting onto the ground and sprinkling on the fallen leaves, reflecting off little bits of light, like a dream.

Lin Yuan couldn't help but sigh: "This Xingdou Great Forest is indeed well-deserved of its reputation. With such beautiful scenery, it's hard to imagine that it is full of dangerous soul beasts. It is a great place to live in seclusion."

Huo Yuzhan was also pleasantly surprised and nodded repeatedly. "Yes, it's so beautiful. It feels like entering a dream world. Brother Uranium, what do you think about us living here in the future?"

Although Xue Di's expression remained cold, a hint of appreciation flashed in her eyes.

"I remember you said the same thing when you were in the Far North. At that time, you also said that if you and I were not afraid of the cold, we would be satisfied just looking at the snow every day." Lin You couldn't help but complain.

"That's different. Mom wouldn't be able to survive in the Far North. It's too cold for ordinary people."

“On the contrary, this place is nice and beautiful.”

Lin Yu continued, "Although the Xingdou Great Forest is full of dangers for ordinary soul masters, and deadly crises are hidden everywhere, with the Snow Empress here, nothing will be a problem."

Then, the three of them slowly went deeper into the forest.

As they walked, the atmosphere of the forest gradually became eerie. The sunlight was blocked by layers of branches and leaves, making the light in the forest dim and shadows heavy.

Occasionally, soul beasts would peek in the dark, their flickering eyes revealing wildness and danger. Whenever they noticed something, the soul beasts would quickly disappear into the dense vegetation, leaving only the rustling of leaves, as if the forest was issuing a silent warning.

The scene in the forest was ever-changing. Sometimes a quiet meadow appeared, and sometimes the way was blocked by intricate vines and thorns. Suddenly, a low roar came from the front, and then a group of soul beasts resembling wild wolves rushed out from all directions and surrounded them.

These wild wolf soul beasts are huge in size, with rough and hard fur, and greedy and fierce light flashing in their eyes.

"They should be soul beasts that are several decades old, Nether Wolves. They move in groups, and their leader is a hundred-year-old soul beast." Lin Yuan made an accurate judgment.

Huo Yuzhen didn't even get nervous, and continued chatting and laughing with Lin You, "Maybe it's because Sister Snow Girl didn't release her pressure, so they all thought we were ordinary people, right?"

However, Xue Di looked calm. She stood aside and did not take action immediately, as if observing the reactions of the two.

"Brother Uranium, I don't want to take action and waste my energy. Hehe, please." The girl playfully clasped her hands and begged.

"There's really nothing I can do about you."

Lin You watched the Nether Wolves slowly approaching, and he could only walk forward helplessly.

Suddenly, a leading Nether Wolf pounced towards Lin You. Lin You dodged to the side and threw a punch, hitting the Nether Wolf on the side.

puff--

One punch, straight through.

The Nether Wolf let out a scream and fell to the ground. After struggling for a few moments, it immediately stopped moving. Seeing this, the other Nether Wolves also launched attacks, and the situation was extremely critical. Then, in less than a minute, the battle was over. The scene was in chaos. However, except for the Nether Wolf at the beginning, Lin You held back a little and did not kill it with a single punch.

Then, he waved his hand lightly, and elemental power surged. The wild wolves were instantly frozen in ice, remaining in an attacking posture, unable to move.

Huo Yuzhen looked at the frozen wild wolves with a pity in his heart. He said to Lin You, "Brother You, they are only attacking us to survive. Why don't we let them go? After all, I don't think Brother Bingdi Tianmeng would want us to massacre soul beasts, right?"

She explained: "When we enter the forest, we only need to hunt down a soul beast that meets my needs. Don't kill any innocent people."

At this moment, Bingdi suddenly spoke up, "Yuzhen, it's okay. Although I'm a little relieved that you have this intention, in the soul beast community, survival of the fittest is the law of nature. Those who can survive live, and those who can't survive die. I don't mind you slaughtering soul beasts at all. After all, they are not my people, so you can do whatever you want."

Brother Tianmeng also had something to say: "Well, Yuzhen, we soul beasts are not united. We are different from humans. Humans are still a single race, but we soul beasts are many different races, each of which is opposed to the other. We have innate racial hatred. Have you forgotten that after I became your soul, the first soul ring I found was from my clan?"

What Brother Tianmeng said was so reasonable that Huo Yujian was stunned. He felt that what he said made a lot of sense, but he was speechless.

The three continued to move forward. At noon, sunlight shone through the gaps in the leaves onto the ground, forming patches of light. They heard the sounds of fierce fighting and the roars of soul beasts.

Following the direction of the sound, I saw a group of soul-hunting mercenaries.

The captain of the mercenary team was a red-haired, one-eyed woman with a mole at the corner of her mouth. She looked charmingly beautiful. At this moment, she was smiling heartily, resting together and inviting the team members to eat. Next to her lay a dead soul beast, a hundred-year-old soul beast.

A middle-aged man stood aside with a gratified smile on his face. Next to him was a young man about the same age as Lin Yuan, who was looking at the soul beast on the ground excitedly.

When she saw Lin You and the other two, she was slightly startled, then stood up and greeted them with a smile: "Why are you little guys here? This Xingdou Great Forest is not a place for fun."

Lin You and Huo Yuzhe are really too young. Although they are no less physically fit than adults, they still have a childish look. This woman obviously knows that people who have absorbed spirit rings will grow faster, so judging their age is not a matter of appearance.

After all, they really are only twelve years old.

As for Xue Di's appearance, she looks to be only about twenty years old, and it is obvious that she is not a particularly strong type.

Lin You responded politely: "We are here to obtain spirit rings."

The captain of the mercenary team looked them up and down and kindly warned them, "The forest is dangerous. Fifty miles east of here is the territory of the Flame Tiger. The Flame Tiger is quite powerful, so you must be careful."

After she finished speaking, she pulled out a map from her bosom and handed it to Lin You. "We've been helping people hunt souls in this area for years. This is a map we drew ourselves. I'll give it to you. I hope it can be of some help to you."

Lin You quickly took it and said gratefully, "Thank you so much, you are such a good person."

The captain of the mercenary team laughed heartily: "When we are out and about, we should help each other. Be careful, we also need to help the client guard and absorb the spirit ring."

After saying that, the mercenary team packed up their things, finished their meal, and immediately stood up, taking a standard defensive formation.

Huo Yujian looked at their backs and sighed, "In fact, there are still many good people in this world."

Lin You nodded: "Yes, although this map is of little help to us, I am actually very satisfied with the thoughtfulness of it."

As time passed, the sky gradually darkened, and the sun slowly sank to the west, dyeing the sky orange-red.

The light in the forest gradually dimmed, various nocturnal animals began to become active, and strange noises were heard from time to time.

Lin You and the other two found a relatively safe place and prepared to spend their first night in the Star Dou Forest.
