A Bite of Douluo Continent

Once the human-faced spider encounters an opponent it is certain it cannot defeat, it will immediately flee, a typical example of bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

Clearly, his strike had instilled fear in the Man-Faced Demon Spider, which is why it was running away at top speed.

However, Qi Han's expression did not become more relaxed; instead, it became even more serious.

The human-faced spider also has a natural trait: it is extremely vengeful.

He was going to stay in the Demon Forest for a while longer and wasn't leaving immediately, so even though the human-faced demon spider had run away, it might secretly follow him in the future and find an opportunity to attack him.

In other words, for him, the escape of the human-faced spider was not a good thing, but rather a troublesome matter, and he needed to be more vigilant from now on.

Forget it, take care of him.

With a hint of curiosity, Qi Han approached the severed spider spear of the human-faced demon spider, raising a slight brow.

The spider spear, gleaming with a cold black light, was covered with hard barbs, making it look exceptionally fierce. Even though it had just fallen to the ground, the weeds in the area it had pressed against had already turned into pus, which was enough to show how deadly it was.

The strong, fishy smell made Qi Han feel dizzy. He quickly took a few steps back, his brows furrowed. "Ruyi, what were you thinking, putting this thing in the Ingredient Encyclopedia?"

"Ahem, I just put it here casually." Ruyi was also a little embarrassed. "This thing can't be eaten."

"Nonsense!" Qi Han rolled his eyes and patted the little bear in his arms. "Let's go, let's continue looking for the Three-Eyed War Bear."

"Meow~"

Gulu gently nuzzled against Qi Han, then continued to lie quietly in his arms.

Gulu didn't participate in the battle just now, not because it didn't want to, but because Qi Han wouldn't allow it.

Gulu's Mist Flash, which carries Qi Han along, can now be used six times in a row, and the distance it travels is much farther than when it first awakened. Although dealing with the Human-Faced Demon Spider is stressful, Qi Han is not yet in real danger. Originally, Gulu planned to take advantage of the spider when it spewed spider webs, but since the spider did not spew them, Gulu naturally did not need to make a move.

Qi Han glanced at the location of the three-eyed war bear marked on the map and sighed softly.

After the three-eyed war bear that had been eyeing them for ten thousand years and the three-eyed war bear that had been eyeing them for fifty thousand years joined together, they stopped moving and obviously got along quite well.

Under these circumstances, Qi Han naturally couldn't just wait for the two of them to separate, so he had to find another target.

After searching the map, Qi Han quickly spotted another three-eyed war bear that was 18,000 years old.

Although it was a bit older, Qi Han felt he could still handle it.

More importantly, this guy was quite close by, and there were no other companions nearby.

It's you I've decided on, lucky little guy.

Chapter 534 Frequent Situations

Qi Han was not without losses in the battle against the Human-Faced Demon Spider.

Because of his skillful movement, he was not injured by the venomous spears of the Man-Faced Demon Spider. However, the consumption of his soul power was inevitable. After using the Five Techniques Combined twice in a row, plus other soul power consumption during the battle, Qi Han used up a full 30% of his soul power. Moreover, he inevitably inhaled the toxins that the Man-Faced Demon Spider had spread into the air during the battle.

Although not fatal, it made him feel dizzy and lightheaded during his journey.

Given his current condition, even if he were to reach the three-eyed war bear, he would likely find it difficult to defeat it and might end up delivering takeout.

So after forcing himself to travel one or two thousand meters, Qi Han finally stopped.

You can't rush things; I need to get my body back to its peak condition before I leave.

The appearance of that human-faced demon spider wasted a lot of my time.

He couldn't help but feel a bit more resentful towards the human-faced spider. After carefully looking around and making sure no one was around, he quickly entered the training space.

The training space features a 240-fold time acceleration. Even if you stay inside for a whole day, only six minutes will have passed in the outside world. This ensures that the target won't wander off during your rest and guarantees absolute safety. Only a fool wouldn't go there.

After Qi Han disappeared from the spot, a huge, pitch-black spider suddenly appeared nearby.

This jet-black spider looked rather strange; one of its fangs had been severed at the root, making its movement seem slightly uncoordinated, but its terrifying aura still gave people a great sense of threat.

Following Qi Han's aura, the spider quickly arrived at the spot where he had disappeared. It seemed puzzled as to why Qi Han's aura had vanished. After shaking its head, it concealed itself once more.

Qi Han was unaware of the situation outside. After he had fully recovered his soul power and expelled some toxins from his body, he came out of the training space again. The figure of the pitch-black spider had completely disappeared, and not even a trace of its aura was leaked.

Qi Han casually opened the map that Ruyi had given him and glanced at it. A satisfied expression quickly appeared on his face.

His second target, the 18,000-year-old three-eyed war bear, was obediently waiting for him in the same spot.

Awesome.

He increased his speed again, but having learned from his previous experience with the Human-Faced Demon Spider, Qi Han became more cautious this time.

Soon, the straight-line distance between him and the three-eyed war bear was reduced to about one kilometer.

At this distance, he sensed some unusual movements, which gradually made his expression turn strange.

A strange and ferocious beast roar faintly came from ahead. At the same time, a strong fluctuation of soul power could be clearly felt even from Qi Han's position. There seemed to be a special energy fluctuation spreading out, causing Qi Han's mental power to tremble slightly.

Is this a fluctuation of mental energy?

Hearing the strange roar that sounded somewhat like a bear's howl and feeling the spreading spiritual energy fluctuations, Qi Han suddenly realized something.

broken!

Could it be that the Three-Eyed War Bear got into a fight with someone else?

Someone wants to get there first?!

He carefully concealed himself and slowly approached the direction from which the noise came, hiding behind a sufficiently thick tree and cautiously peeking out.

It wasn't, as he suspected, that other Soul Masters were fighting the Three-Eyed War Bear; rather, it was two incredibly ferocious Soul Beasts battling it out.

One of them was a bear-like spirit beast that stood seven or eight meters tall when upright, with a robust body and bulging muscles. Its body was covered with short, dark gray fur, and it roared fiercely from its large, menacing mouth. The most striking feature was the third eye standing upright on its forehead, which made it look extremely eerie.

It was precisely Qi Han's target for this trip: the three-eyed war bear with a cultivation level of 18,000 years.

At this moment, the three-eyed war bear had several dark wounds on its body, with signs of corrosion on the wounds. Its fur could not stop the corrosion at all. Although its roar was still fierce, it gave Qi Han a feeling that it was all bark and no bite.

The other side fighting it was a soul beast with a very strange appearance.

It has no limbs and floats in mid-air like a balloon, with its main body being spherical.

It was a huge, blood-red eye, about a meter in diameter, with six jet-black tentacles behind it.

This strangely shaped soul beast didn't make many moves; it simply shot out black light from its pupils, easily repelling the three-eyed war bear that charged at it. Clearly, it had gained a complete advantage in the battle.

Qi Han's pupils contracted slightly.

He had already recognized the origin of this soul beast.

Evil eye.

The most powerful race in the Demon Forest, without exception.

The king of the Evil Eye clan is the Evil Eye Tyrant, who ranks second among the ten most ferocious beasts. He is practically invincible in this forest. With him inhabiting the Demon Forest, other soul beasts dare not hunt the Evil Eye clan. Even without him, the Evil Eye, a unique and rare spiritual attribute soul beast, is still one of the top soul beast races, and its strength is also very powerful.

This race is very peculiar. Even within the race, the Evil Eye is divided into different types. In addition to the mental attribute, the Evil Eye can also possess other attribute powers, but the more mixed the attributes, the weaker the power.

For example, the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler himself only has the attribute of spirit, which is why he was able to survive seven heavenly tribulations on his own.

Both the age of the Evil Eye and its inherent attributes can be seen in its tentacles.

The dark aura that could be clearly sensed from the black tentacles clearly told Qi Han the nature of the giant creature in front of him.

The Evil Eye possesses both spiritual and dark attributes.

A ten-thousand-year-old Evil Eye has six tentacles. After that, for every ten thousand years that the Evil Eye's cultivation increases, one more tentacle will be added, until it has more than fifteen tentacles, transforming from an ordinary Evil Eye into a hundred-thousand-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant.

The seventh tentacle of this evil eye has not yet emerged, indicating that it has only reached the level of ten thousand years. Compared to the three-eyed war bear, it is much weaker in terms of age.

Even so, this evil eye still held an absolute advantage, which was enough to show the strength of the evil eye clan.

Upon seeing this, Qi Han's heart tightened.

This is not good. The three-eyed war bear seems unable to withstand the opponent's attacks. If this continues, I will not be able to complete my mission.

Or... I could help the Three-Eyed War Bear kill that evil eye first, and then kill the Three-Eyed War Bear?

Having made up his mind, Qi Han was about to set off when he saw the evil eye suddenly turn towards the direction where he was hiding.

Before he could react, a terrifying black light burst forth from the Evil Eye's pupils, heading straight for Qi Han.

Discovered?

Qi Han was startled, then immediately annoyed.

Careless.

Both of these guys have mental attributes, so it wouldn't be difficult for them to detect their presence.

Fortunately, Qi Han had been keeping his body tense in case of any eventuality, and at the moment the evil eye unleashed its attack, he lunged to the side, dodging the attack.

When he looked up again, he saw that the two soul beasts, who had been fighting to the death, seemed to have reconciled instantly and were now attacking him together.

Qi Han: "???"

Chapter 535 One Against Two (Seeking Recommendation Votes)

At this moment, Qi Han was extremely grateful that he had been cautious before coming over and had adjusted his condition to its peak. Otherwise, he would have surely died if he were facing the attacks of two ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts.

As for now…

It's still too early to say who will emerge victorious.

Although Qi Han doesn't have a sixth soul ring now, he can still be considered a quasi-Soul Emperor. He has the powerful weapon of combining five skills, as well as Gulu's Mist Flash as a trump card, which allows him to unexpectedly flash to a position that the opponent cannot avoid to attack. Even when facing two powerful ten-thousand-year soul beasts, he is not afraid at all.

Although he didn't know how the two guys managed to reconcile instantly and decide to gang up on him, Qi Han felt that he could easily take on two opponents at once. After all, the two guys had already fought once before and were not at their peak, and the three-eyed war bear had suffered quite a few injuries.

Soon, the man and the two beasts were locked in battle. The aftershocks of the fight left trails around the battleground, causing many weaker soul beasts nearby to flee in panic.

The two soul beasts had a very clear division of labor. The three-eyed war bear pounced on Qi Han almost instantly. Its seven- or eight-meter-tall, robust body was like an iron tower with unparalleled oppressive power. It fought Qi Han in close combat, while the evil eye would occasionally shoot out a beam of mental energy with terrifying dark power, taking advantage of Qi Han's distraction to launch a sneak attack.

With a swift movement, the blade, imbued with armor-piercing power, instantly slashed a deep, bloody gash across the three-eyed war bear's body. Then, the blade twisted, using the side of the edge to take the full force of the three-eyed war bear's attack, which had gone completely mad with bloodlust. Qi Han used the momentum to fly backward, dodging an attack that the Evil Eye was poised to unleash from the side.

He slightly shook his wrist, which was aching from directly taking a hit from the three-eyed war bear, and his brow furrowed almost imperceptibly.

This can't go on.

He overestimated himself.

He believed he could handle two other soul beasts of similar age.
