A Bite of Douluo Continent

Recipes will drop randomly.

With Qi Han's successful promotion to intermediate chef, the random recipe drop rate has increased to three stars or higher, but he seems to have never received a random recipe drop since then, until now.

A random recipe drop starting with three stars is naturally better than a three-star random recipe. Although there are no four-star recipes in the main quest rewards this time, there are two random recipe drops, which Qi Han thinks is still acceptable.

As for the random recipe drop from the side quest, Qi Han was also very satisfied.

So Qi Han silently turned his attention to the ingredient acquisition task.

The bear is a type of bear.

The Three-Eyed War Bear is a top-tier bear-type spirit beast that possesses both spiritual attributes and immense power.

The Demon Forest is the largest forest of soul beasts within the Sun and Moon Continent, and it is also the habitat of the Evil Eye Tyrant, who has a cultivation level of 800,000 years.

This ingredient gathering mission is extremely dangerous.

Chapter 531 Ye Changhong's Discovery (Seeking monthly votes on the last day of February)

Although dangerous, the rewards for this food gathering mission are also very generous.

In addition to the system soul ring that you get every time you complete an ingredient acquisition mission, there is also a four-star recipe: Precious Pearl.

This wasn't the first time Qi Han had received a four-star recipe. The reason he felt the reward was so generous was purely because of the dish itself.

This is a dish made with bear paws.

With bears becoming protected animals, bear paws, which were extremely rare to eat even in ancient times on Earth, have become a thing of the past. Therefore, Qi Han has never eaten any dishes made with bear paws on Earth.

After all, eating there would mean being sent to jail for food; no one could stand it.

Therefore, Qi Han is particularly looking forward to this reward recipe.

It was already late, so it was impossible to set off now. He planned to get some sleep and recharge before leaving Mingdu tomorrow.

His original plan to purchase a batch of soul tools tomorrow morning and return to Douluo Continent in the afternoon was naturally ruined. He had to rush to the Demon Forest as soon as possible. This was probably because the mission was indeed quite difficult. He had been given a full ten days, but if he was delayed by one or two days, it would not be easy to complete the mission.

After leaving the Demon Forest, you can purchase a batch of Soul Tools in a nearby major city and then teleport away from the Sun and Moon Continent.

Yes, the plan works.

With a plan in mind, Qi Han carried Gulu upstairs.

"Gulu, we'll leave Mingdu tomorrow. After that, we'll kill a ten-thousand-year-old three-eyed war bear, buy some things, and then we can go back to Shrek City."

"Meow!"

I'm really looking forward to it!

...

Time flew by, and it was the next morning.

Qi Han quickly packed his luggage, storing it all in his storage soul tool, and then walked towards the gate of Mingdu City.

Qi Han planned to leave the Hanshi restaurant as it was.

Even if I leave, the store will still have Ruyi's automatic protection, so no one can damage it and the interior will not get dusty.

Although I have left the Sun and Moon Continent at this moment, who knows if I will have the chance to come back in the future?

Selling this shop wouldn't cost him much more money, especially considering the complicated transaction process. It's better to keep it so he'll have a place to stay if he needs to come back in the future.

Unbeknownst to Qi Han, after he left Hanshi, countless spies sprang into action, and a plan targeting him was launched.

"What? Only Qi Han is here?"

Upon receiving the report from the Secret Service, Zhou Yuan and Xu Haolong exchanged a glance in the council hall, their brows furrowing.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid they've already arranged to meet somewhere outside Mingdu?" After thinking for a while, Zhou Yuan could only think of this one possibility. "In that case, the original plan will have to be delayed for a while. Right now, we only have Qi Han alone, so it won't be very effective to lure him into the secret realm. Commander Ye is better at tracking, so why don't we have him secretly follow them all the way, and then send a signal after they meet up, and then we can proceed with the original plan?"

"Okay, let's do it this way." Xu Haolong nodded, a hint of helplessness on his face.

Yesterday, several strategists in the court gathered together and discussed for a whole day. They finally came up with a plan that was relatively safe and could lure the other party into the secret realm provided by the Imperial Tutor.

Given the current situation, the plan will have to be postponed slightly, but fortunately the problem is not serious and it is not out of control.

...

Upon receiving the order, Ye Changhong, who had been waiting in the wings, instantly flew off from the Mingdu city wall and quickly chased after Qi Han in the direction the Secret Intelligence Bureau had sent. With his flying soul tool extended behind him, he unleashed the terrifying speed of a level nine soul master. Soon, Ye Changhong locked onto Qi Han's location at the edge of his mental perception.

Without closing the distance between them, Ye Changhong quickly slowed down and lowered his altitude, flying low close to the ground while carefully using his mental energy to probe Qi Han's situation.

At this moment, Qi Han was flying in mid-air, riding a soul beast that Ye Changhong had never seen before, which made Ye Changhong frown slightly.

Strange, why doesn't he recognize this soul beast?

Also, where did Qi Han get his soul beast?

They knew he had been under their watchful eyes the whole time. This soul beast wasn't an inanimate object; it was impossible for it to be stored in a soul tool. How did it suddenly appear out of thin air along the way?

Despite his doubts, Ye Changhong stayed close behind Qi Han, but soon his brows furrowed slightly.

This direction…

Why does this look so familiar?

Wait a minute!

Isn't this the direction of the Demon Forest?!

Ye Changhong's expression changed instantly.

He is the legion commander of the Evil Lord Soul Master Corps, and the Evil Lord is the strongest soul beast in the entire Sun Moon Continent.

It's hard to say how strong it is, because everyone who has witnessed this being in action is already dead.

The sole survivor is De Hongchen, the current tutor of the Sun and Moon Emperor.

When De Hongchen had just entered the tenth level of Soul Master, he went to the Demon Forest to see if he could defeat the Evil Lord. However, he ended up fleeing in defeat. It was from that time that the Evil Lord Soul Master Corps was established. His Majesty named the Soul Master Corps after him, trying to borrow his fierce aura.

Therefore, Ye Changhong was fully aware of the terror of the Evil Lord.

Qi Han's current route is straight, with no place to stop along the way, making his destination obvious.

Could it be that the people of Douluo Continent are hiding in the Demon Forest?

Ye Changhong couldn't help but speculate.

After a chase that lasted more than two hours, the Demon Forest was soon in sight.

Qi Han finally descended slowly from the sky, landing at the edge of the Demon Forest.

Sure enough, their destination was the Demon Forest.

Could my guess have come true?

Ye Changhong raised an eyebrow, stopped, and hid in a secluded spot, using his mental energy to keep a close eye on Qi Han's movements.

Then, his eyes widened suddenly.

This…

A certain light flashed in Qi Han's hand, and then the horse-like spirit beast he rode suddenly disappeared from the spot. Then, holding the cat that had appeared many times in the Cold Food Festival, he walked into the Demon Forest.

Ye Changhong felt that his understanding had been impacted like never before.

How can a living being be stored in a soul storage device?

No, that might not be a storage soul tool.

Thinking about Qi Han's background, Ye Changhong suddenly had a new guess.

Perhaps it's a treasure similar to a storage soul tool that allows living beings to enter?

The Sun and Moon Continent is relatively unfamiliar to the Douluo Continent. Perhaps such a magical treasure really exists in the Douluo Continent?

If that's the case...

This seems to explain how Qi Han and his companions managed to infiltrate the Sun and Moon Continent.

It's very easy to investigate a group of people; as long as one of them slips up, the truth will be revealed.

But what if there's only one Soul Master skilled in stealth outside, while everyone else is hidden inside this treasure?

Therefore, their infiltration does seem to be possible.

It matches up! Everything matches up!

So at this moment, those people from Douluo Continent are hiding in this demonic forest?

They knew how much the locals feared this forest and rarely came here.

It's perfect for them to hide their tracks.

At this moment, Qi Han entered the treasure, only needing to take the others into it before he could leave leisurely.

No, it might not be Qi Han who comes out.

From this moment forward, the Demon Forest must be completely sealed off, and no one is allowed to leave!

Chapter 532 Sudden Attack

After Qi Han entered the Demon Forest, the entire outer area of ​​the Demon Forest was sealed off by a large number of high-level Soul Masters within an hour. They used the excuse that a serious criminal had escaped into the Demon Forest and forbade anyone to enter.

Everyone who emerges from there will be subjected to unprecedentedly severe questioning, and anyone found to have even the slightest suspicious sign of identity will be immediately detained.

Qi Han naturally had no idea about these things. Not long after entering the Demon Forest, Qi Han couldn't help but ask, "Ruyi, where is the Three-Eyed War Bear?"

He felt very uncomfortable in this forest, and having just entered, he couldn't wait to finish his mission and leave.

The Star Dou Great Forest, located in the Douluo Continent, is dangerous, but its natural scenery is still very beautiful. Various trees and shrubs grow there, and as far as the eye can see, it is all green.

The Demon Forest is located in a cold region. Although it is also a forest, it is mainly composed of virgin coniferous forests. The overall color scheme is black and gray, and the menacing branches of the trees look like demons baring their fangs and claws, giving people an extremely oppressive feeling.

“The Three-Eyed War Bears don’t have a fixed habitat,” Ruyi said helplessly. “They are not social creatures; they hunt and prey independently. I have already marked the dynamic locations and cultivation years of all the ten-thousand-year-old Three-Eyed War Bears on the Demon Forest map for you. It’s up to you now.”

"That works too." Qi Han looked at the light screen that had suddenly appeared in front of him and nodded in satisfaction.

The location of the Three-Eyed War Bear is directly marked, making it much easier to track it yourself.
