Douluo Continent: Reincarnation of Huo Linfei, Illusory Lin Nebula

Chapter 38 Country bumpkin? Me?

Huo Linfei crossed his arms, tilted his head slightly, looked at Xiao Wu, and asked, "Aren't you afraid of encountering danger if you go back like this? You're human now, and the Star Dou Great Forest isn't safe."

A hint of disdain flashed in Xiao Wu's eyes. "I'll be careful. Besides, that's my home. I know everything about it. Once I get there, Daming and Erming will sense my presence and come to pick me up."

"Sigh... Fine, I'll do you a favor and take you back to the Star Dou Great Forest. That way it'll be faster." Huo Linfei smiled slightly and walked past Xiao Wu to the front.

"Ah Fei, thank you." Xiao Wu's expression was complicated as she lightly bit her thin lips.

"Stop being so wishy-washy, let's go. You've come all this way to the human world, so on your way back, buy some local specialties for your two little brothers. Like... bananas or something," Huo Linfei said with a smile.

Xiao Wu couldn't help but smile.

"You're being too funny. Erming may be a Titan ape, but it doesn't eat bananas anymore."

……

Three days later.

Starry Sky Forest.

The "Phantom Scale" has two figures, Huo Linfei and Xiao Wu, on its back, with a large black bag hanging below, containing various items.

"We've arrived at the Star Dou Great Forest. Why haven't your underlings come to greet you yet?" Huo Linfei glanced at Xiao Wu behind him and asked in confusion.

"We're still too far away and too high up. Let's fly lower and go a little further in," Xiao Wu said, frowning.

She lowered her head slightly, looking down at the forest below, and felt a chill run down her spine. Gazing at the boundless scenery in the distance, she had never realized how vast the Starry Sky Forest truly was.

"It's so great to be able to fly..."

Huo Linfei had just landed and was flying at low altitude when he heard Xiao Wu whispering, though he couldn't quite make it out.

"What did you just say?"

"It's nothing..." Xiao Wu shook her head. Suddenly, a messy grove of trees appeared ahead, and she quickly called out, "Hey! You stinky brat, look ahead!"

"Lightning Drift! Blade Overtake!" Fire Kirin drove "Phantom Kirin Speed" through the forest with great difficulty, drifting along the edge of the road.

"Let me show you what real skill is!"

"Yay!"

"You stinky brat! I'm not done with you yet!" Xiao Wu felt dizzy and disoriented. If it weren't for her homemade seatbelt, she would have already fallen off.

"Holy crap, what is that?"

Huo Linfei stared at the huge black shadow that suddenly appeared, and upon closer inspection, he realized that it was actually a sizable purplish-black spider.

"Phantom Scales Dash" couldn't dodge in time.

Huo Linfei's skills are not yet fully refined.

In addition, the purplish-black spider was charging towards him.

"Bang!"

After a loud bang.

After spinning twice, "Phantom Scales" retreated slightly and slowly came to a stop in mid-air.

The purplish-black spider, under the immense force of "Phantom Scale Flash," was also sent flying uncontrollably backward, unfortunately crashing into a giant tree branch.

"Oh no, there's been a car accident..."

"It's all your fault for talking just now, you disturbed me." Huo Linfei drove "Phantom Scale" slowly closer, looking down at the purplish-black spider.

"Blame me? It's clearly your own fault!" Xiao Wu snorted.

"If it weren't for you... ugh..."

Xiao Wu wanted to speak, but the dizziness, combined with Huo Linfei's previous actions, made her stomach churn, and she began to dry heave.

"Even if I, Xiao Wu, die, I will never ride in your 'Phantom Swift' again."

"Pretentious." Huo Linfei handed a tissue to Xiao Wu and continued to examine the purplish-black spider. "This soul beast looks like a human-faced demon spider, doesn't it? It has some similar characteristics to what's described in the textbook."

Huo Linfei examined the human-faced demon spider's abdomen, noting the pattern resembling a human face.

It was because of its face-like pattern that it got its name, the Human-Faced Demon Spider.

"Ignorance is truly terrifying! You don't even recognize the Human-Faced Demon Spider. I really don't know how you've managed to get all these years of schooling!" Xiao Wu wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth, her face full of disdain.

"Look at you, so capable. I don't think you're that smart." Huo Linfei curled his lip.

Noticing that the human-faced spider was already exhaling more than inhaling, they couldn't help but exclaim in alarm.

"My apologies, my apologies!"

"I didn't want to kill you, but you have so many eyes, yet you still don't look where you're going. You've even ruined the paint on my 'Phantom Swift'."

"Let me end your ugly life."

have to say.

This human-faced spider is truly ugly.

Huo Linfei's fifth soul ring suddenly shone brightly. He placed his hands on his waist, his fingers spread outwards, and crimson energy instantly condensed and appeared, as dazzling as the sun.

"Fifth Soul Skill: Radiant Flame Strike!"

Huo Linfei pushed with both hands, and a pillar of fire was released from his hands, instantly engulfing the entire body of the human-faced demon spider.

"You stinky brat, be careful not to set the forest on fire!" Xiao Wu warned.

Huo Linfei felt that the Human-Faced Demon Spider was almost done, so he stopped and withdrew his hand.

"I killed this human-faced spider, don't you feel bad?" Huo Linfei asked curiously.

"Why should I feel sorry for it! It's just a broken spider. Even if you don't do anything, I'll still kill it! This human-faced demon spider is practically the public enemy of all soul beasts. I'd have to be crazy to feel sorry for it!" Xiao Wu rolled her eyes, looking indignant.

"Is this soul beast really that bad?" Huo Linfei asked, somewhat surprised.

At that moment, he suddenly noticed that a purple light was still lingering where he had cremated the human-faced spider.

"What is this? A bone?"

Huo Linfei took the ball of purple light into his hand and began to observe it with curiosity.

At first glance, the skeleton appears to consist of eight small bulges connected to the spine of the torso, giving it a very bizarre shape.

"This is a soul bone, you country bumpkin, you have no knowledge!" Xiao Wu said disdainfully.

"Soul Bone?" Huo Linfei's eyes lit up.

He'd heard of this thing before!

The legendary treasure of the Blood River!

Previously, Tang Hao had even taken out a piece of emerald green soul bone and given it to that stinky old man next to Ning Rongrong.

"I heard that there are six parts of a soul bone: the skull, the torso, the limbs, and the torso. Is this soul bone the torso bone?" Huo Linfei asked in confusion.

"This... I think so..." Xiao Wu said, somewhat uncertainly.

"Speaking of which, soul beasts are really strange. After they die, not only can they produce soul rings that humans can absorb, but they can also produce soul bones that can match parts of the human body..." Huo Linfei frowned and pondered.

"Never mind, I don't want to think about it anymore, it gives me a headache."

Huo Linfei tossed his red hair, put the soul bone away in a sack, and casually tied it to the back of "Phantom Lin Flash".

"Looks like I'll have some free time and figure out how to get a storage soul tool to play with."

"This can't go on forever."

"That's easy." Xiao Wu said with a smile, "I didn't understand before I entered the human world. Now that I think about it, my mother left me a lot of soul tools and gold soul coins, and Da Ming and Er Ming also had a lot. They've been kept hidden and haven't been touched. I'll give them to you later."
