Douluo: The blue phoenix cries loudly, and the wind whistles through the air

You should know that when walking in the Star Dou Great Forest, the hot and humid environment makes it very easy to sweat, and insects, attracted by the smell, will constantly bite the Soul Master, which is extremely annoying.

There was no sign of any insects here, and the climate was pleasant.

Wu Qi nodded slightly, then subtly gestured for the other party to stop talking.

The inheritance of deities has always been the Spirit Hall's biggest secret, and those students are not yet qualified to know about it.

The trainees, with their limited experience, couldn't help but look around at the strange sights around them.

A short while later, they saw the fawn eating fruit from the surrounding trees without giving any warning.

Driven by curiosity, the students also tried the taste of the fruit.

For a moment, their taste buds felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction.

This fruit is sweet but not cloying, melts in your mouth, and its fresh and sweet taste lingers in your mouth.

Most importantly, after eating, they felt like they had inexhaustible energy and were instantly full of spirit.

The little deer ran up to Wu Qi, rubbed against his trouser leg, and gave him an innocent look.

The two students who ate the fruit were extremely excited and couldn't sit still; they kept jumping around.

"What did you eat?" Wu Qi frowned.

In such an unfamiliar place, where you don't even recognize the surrounding plants, who knows what might happen if you rashly eat their fruit?
None of the accounts of Azure Phoenix Douluo, Ghost Leopard Douluo, or the Dead Ghost mentioned this exhilarating fruit.

It's highly likely that the fruit had serious side effects, or that they simply didn't eat it out of caution.

However, given the current situation, it's clear that the fruit they're eating has serious side effects.

Wu Qi said in a deep voice, "The others should not touch the fruit. Observe their condition first, and we'll talk about it later."

Before he could finish speaking, the two men let out a loud shout, and their respective martial spirits—the pangolin and the mountain eagle—appeared behind them.

The next instant, without any warning, the martial spirits of the two people gradually grew larger.

"Martial Soul True Form!?" Qian Gu Chang Kong muttered.

These two are only Soul Masters, how can they use their Martial Soul True Body?
"No, this isn't the true Martial Soul Form." Wu Qi quickly told everyone to step back.

From the perspective of the original timeline, the Martial Soul True Body is not something that a Soul Master can only use if they reach the Soul Saint level; rather, it is related to the quality of the Soul Power within the body.

In the original timeline, the Shrek Seven Devils used a seven-in-one spirit fusion technique against the Wind and Fire Team during the Soul Master Competition. All their spirit power was concentrated on Tang San, and at that time, Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer did not have any spirit rings attached, yet he was still able to unleash his true spirit form.

From this, Wu Qi could guess that for a Soul Master, as long as the quality of the Soul Power within their body is strong enough, they can still unleash the Martial Soul True Body even without a seventh Soul Ring.

He couldn't help but wonder what kind of fruit it was!
The deer was fine after eating it, but when a human soul master ate it, it provided such immense power that it even allowed them to unleash their true martial soul form.

However, soon, something strange happened to those two.

Their bodies were swelling, as if they were about to burst from this immense force.

Realizing something was wrong, the two cried out repeatedly, "Elder Wu, save us!"

As they spoke, they approached Wu Qi and the others.

Wu Qi realized something was wrong and quickly said, "Stop! Everyone else, retreat immediately!"

This situation is clearly on the verge of self-destruction and is beyond saving.

If these two get close, everyone will be killed in the explosion.

This was a full-force attack surpassing even a Soul Saint! Even Wu Qi wouldn't want to face it head-on. In desperation, Wu Qi activated his Martial Soul, retrieved the little deer, and, carrying Qian Gu Chang Kong and Chen Ping, along with three of the eight students who were Flying Soul Masters, they also grabbed their companions and, in a gliding dive, soared into the distance.
The immense force blew the two of them into balloons, making it impossible for them to move an inch.

Immediately following was a loud bang, and two mushroom clouds bloomed.

Affected by the impact, Wu Qi and the others immediately fell to the ground, forced to eat mouthfuls of mud.

Qian Gu Chang Kong couldn't help but curse, "You're more trouble than you're worth! You brought food, why did you have to touch those fruits?"

Wu Qi found it hard to believe that such a small fruit could contain such immense power. What kind of fruit was this?
Before he could think, he heard something strange behind him.

The two men were blown to bits, leaving only their skeletal remains, but they were still alive.

Without vocal cords, only the skull's mouth opened and closed repeatedly, as if trying to speak, but no sound came out.

Qian Gu Chang Kong summoned the Panlong Staff, only to find it troublesome. "What the hell is this thing? It can't die!"

Wu Qi frowned, as if he understood something. "This fruit must have provided extremely pure life energy, which their bodies could not withstand, so much so that they were devoured by the energy. But at the same time, this powerful life force kept them alive."

Wu Qi drew his scepter from behind him. If this was truly the garden of the God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life, then this scepter could absorb the last life force from the corpses, allowing the two to rest in peace.

Without hesitation, Wu Qi strode forward and struck the two men with his scepter.

Just as he had expected, the life force of the two people was drained, and they instantly lost their vitality.

After the crisis was resolved, Wu Qi's expression was not good.

Non-combat casualties are a major taboo.

Qian Gu Chang Kong couldn't help but curse, "Anyone who dares to touch anything here again will suffer the consequences!"

……

The group returned to their previous positions, but they appeared listless compared to before.

The remaining eight trainees were clearly frightened, and some even shouted that they wanted to leave.

Wu Qi did not object and allowed the three trainees who wanted to leave to return the way they came.

The journey ahead will only become more dangerous; every life saved is a life saved.

"The deer were fine after eating the fruit, so why did they get into trouble?" Qian Gu Chang Kong was completely baffled.

Wu Qi casually explained, "The deer belongs here; its physical structure is naturally adapted to this environment. Or rather, those fruits were created specifically for them."

Whether it is or isn't, it's no longer important.

Some people have already paid the price for this, and Wu Qi dares not touch that kind of fruit again.

The remaining five trainees took turns keeping watch with the three others until everyone had recovered their energy and continued on their way.

This highly poisonous land is shrouded in mystery, and Wu Qi dared not venture into it one by one. He could only keep the Fragrant Silk Immortal Item with him at all times and continue his journey forward.

Soon, they arrived at the foot of that ancient, towering tree.

According to the map and what the dead man said, we should head to the left.

This also means that they will face even more dangerous trials ahead.

"From now on, no one may leave my ten-meter radius; everyone must walk under this pink halo."

"If there are special circumstances that force you to stop, be sure to speak up!" (End of Chapter)
