Douluo Continent: Building a Divine Kingdom Starting from the Spirit Hall

"Third Brother, this is a storage soul tool that can store living beings. Although the space inside is not large, it can hold Oscar without any problem. You can take it with you from now on. If you encounter an unavoidable dangerous situation, you can use this to take Oscar to safety."

Ning Rongrong handed the small pouch to Tang San and gave him a small antidote sausage and five large recovery sausages. She then distributed the remaining sausages to everyone.

In any case, Oscar's greatest value lies in the sausages he creates. As long as he has sausages, it doesn't matter whether he's alive or not. Storing them in a soul storage device would actually be safer.

Why bother?

Looking at the purse in his hand, Tang San shook his head helplessly, put it in his pocket, and tied the thin thread on it to the pocket button to prevent it from falling off.

At the same time, he was also very curious about this kind of soul tool that could store living things, and planned to study it when he had time in the future.

With everything ready, the group set off for Sunset Forest.

"Xiao San, you have the sharpest observation skills and the fastest reaction. You also have those hidden weapons that can attack from a distance. You can lead the way at the front of the team."

Rongrong, Jiu'er, you two follow behind Xiao San in the center of the group.

Fatty, Xiao Wu, you two protect the flanks.

"Zhuqing, you patrol and observe the surrounding area; I'll cover the rear."

Upon reaching the edge of Sunset Forest, Dai Mubai stopped to let everyone rest and explained the formation for the next step.

Everyone nodded, rested briefly, and then proceeded in formation, albeit at a slower pace.

Sunset Forest truly lives up to its reputation as one of the three major gathering places for spirit beasts; not long after entering, we encountered quite a few spirit beasts of the hundred-year level.

This level of soul beast was naturally not a threat to the group. Moreover, the powerful soul energy emanating from the group put a lot of pressure on the hundred-year-old soul beast, so none of them dared to attack. They just watched warily from a distance.

For soul beasts, unless they are the social type, they will never attack something stronger than themselves.

After traveling for a whole day and covering nearly a hundred miles, the group finally spent the night in a mountain cave.

The cave was clearly dug out by humans; there were even ashes from a fire, suggesting it was left by people who entered the Sunset Forest in the past.

Although the interior space was not large, it was enough for them to rest inside.

"There are no powerful individual soul beasts or groups of soul beasts within a kilometer radius."

Zhu Zhuqing returned after conducting a large-scale inspection and reported the results of her investigation.

The choice of campsite is very important. It must not be in the territory of powerful spirit beasts, nor should it be in the same place as social spirit beasts, otherwise it will be difficult to have peace at night.

"Sister Jiu'er, you wash first."

After receiving confirmation from Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong took out a large box from her storage soul tool and placed it outside the cave, gesturing to Ao Jiu'er.

Zhu Zhuqing went to the side of the large box to guard it, keeping a close eye on the surroundings.

This large box is the bathroom they bought at that shop; it can be used for simple showering.

Even though it's a dangerous place like Sunset Forest, it's still very necessary to take a shower if possible.

After all, running all day will naturally make you sweat, and sweat will have a smell, which will undoubtedly be a trigger for a soul beast with a keen sense of smell.

The construction of this portable toilet is also very ingenious. The main body consists of several storage soul tools, which can store both clean water and sewage, making it quite convenient.

"Little fatty, our dinner is in your hands now."

Ao Jiu'er took out the frozen lunchbox, gestured to Ma Hongjun, and then walked towards the portable toilet.

After running all day, she was covered in sweat and felt sticky and uncomfortable.

Ma Hongjun then took over the task of heating up the frozen food, placing it in a box, and then steadily inputting his fire-attribute soul power into it, creating a high-temperature space inside.

He had tried this before and knew how to do it.

Moreover, as a foodie, I've always been extremely serious about food.

After relieving herself in the bathroom, Ao Jiu'er quickly rinsed off the sweat and changed her clothes, taking less than five minutes in total.

After all, we were in the wild, in a dangerous place like the Sunset Forest, so we couldn't enjoy ourselves too much and had to keep things simple.

After changing her clothes, Ao Jiu'er came out and nodded to Ning Rongrong before going into the cave to help Ma Hongjun process the frozen food, especially controlling the heat.

Frozen food should not be heated over high heat. Otherwise, the outside will thaw but the inside will remain a block of ice. Continuing to heat it will cause the outside to burn. Therefore, it should be heated slowly to allow the frozen food to thaw completely before heating.

Fortunately, the dishes they chose were those with less sauce, making them easier to heat up.

Ning Rongrong quickly finished washing up, then Xiao Wu, and finally Zhu Zhuqing. Xiao Wu, who had finished washing up, took over Zhu Zhuqing's job and stood guard on the side.

"Boss Dai, it's your turn."

After watching Zhu Zhuqing come out, Ning Rongrong put away the portable toilet and then took out another one, gesturing for Dai Mubai and the others to go in and wash up as well.

"And ours too?"

Before Dai Mubai could say anything, Ma Hongjun became excited.

He knew about that portable toilet. Ning Rongrong would take it out and use it when they camped in the wild during their journey, but it was only used by the four girls. He didn't expect that they would be able to use it today.

This excited Ma Hongjun, but when he turned his head and saw Ning Rongrong taking out another bathroom, he immediately deflated, thinking there might be a little surprise.

"It's good enough if it's even usable."

Dai Mubai glared at the fat man who was now lustful again, nodded to Tang San, and went out to stand guard by the bathroom, keeping a watchful eye on their surroundings.

Tang San went in first to take care of his physical needs, then washed himself quickly before coming out. Next was Ma Hongjun, and finally Dai Mubai, the team leader.

Taking a shower and changing clothes immediately improved the three of them's spirits, and they looked even better after the food was heated up.

“Boss Dai, that shop only has two of these portable toilets. This one has a smaller storage space inside, so use it as you see fit. When you get back, ask the shop owner to customize one for you.”

Seeing Dai Mubai come out of the bathroom, Ning Rongrong said something.

The reason I didn't take it out during my journey was because the storage space inside was too small. It could only hold a limited amount of clean and dirty water, so it couldn't be used many times, and it was also troublesome to replace it. Now that things are different in Sunset Forest, that's why I took it out.

Dai Mubai understood and used his own storage soul tool to put away the portable toilet, making it a shared item for the male members of their team.

"Have we forgotten something?"

Picking up their lunchboxes, everyone looked at the remaining lunchbox and fell into deep thought.

"I forgot about Xiao Ao."

Tang San then realized what was happening, took out the small pouch, and released Oscar from inside.

As soon as Oscar came out, he tightly clamped his legs together, looked around at his surroundings, and quickly ran outside to relieve himself under a big tree.

It really feels awful to have been holding it in all day.

Oscar, now free, was overjoyed and scurried back to pick up his lunchbox, though his eyes still kept darting towards the young lady like a pervert.

Seeing this, Dai Mubai not only facepalmed, but even Ma Hongjun moved aside, leaving Oscar a space between them, as if afraid of catching something from him.

"As the young sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, I bear a heavy burden. I have only one standard for choosing a partner: a god, and to have an eternal love with a god who will not decay into dust."

Before I become a god, I will not consider personal feelings. You are born with full soul power and have the hope of cultivating to become a god, so don't delay yourself.

Do you understand what I'm saying?

Feeling extremely uncomfortable under her gaze, Ning Rongrong could only speak frankly: her goal in this life was to become a god, especially after being accepted as a disciple by her teacher, which gave her even greater hope of achieving godhood.

Therefore, she will absolutely not engage in romantic relationships before becoming a god, as that would only affect her cultivation speed.

"I see."

First, his face turned pale, then he fell silent. Finally, Oscar nodded and silently began to eat his boxed lunch.

He had been a little infatuated before, but his goddess's words brought him back to his senses.

However, he will not give up; he will pursue Rongrong again after he becomes a god.

"It's hopeless!"

Seeing what someone was thinking, Dai Mubai shook his head.

He and Fatty had tried to persuade him a lot over the past three days, but he wouldn't listen to a word. Now, he understands after the girl says just one sentence.

This is truly hopeless, but he was too lazy to say anything more and continued eating his boxed lunch.

Although the taste and texture are not as good as freshly made, it is still considered delicious in this environment.

Seeing that Oscar understood something, Ning Rongrong breathed a sigh of relief and continued eating.

At the same time, he didn't forget to use his soul power to create a mist from the water to absorb the aroma of the heated food, so as not to attract soul beasts because of the smell.

After dinner, everyone rested, while Dai Mubai, Tang San, and Zhu Zhuqing took turns keeping watch.

"These little brats, they don't even know how to be considerate of the elderly."

Flander, watching from a tree not far away, munched on his dry rations while making sarcastic remarks.

After all, the main purpose is to give those children experience, so he naturally won't be in the group. He will only follow them secretly, and he won't even show up to help unless the children are in mortal danger, so as to maximize the training of those children's adaptability.

However, Ning Rongrong's display of wealth made him feel uneasy, especially seeing her eating a delicious heated lunch while he could only gnaw on cold and hard dry food, which made him feel even more unbalanced.

Unbeknownst to Flander, there was another person watching him from a hundred meters behind.

"Money really does have the power to prevail in any world."

After a moment of reflection, Tian Hao, who was wearing the Shi Nian vest, was very satisfied with his disciple's performance.

He didn't want to come here, but after discovering two big guys in Sunset Forest, he sneaked over to watch the show and see just how strong the power of fate really was.

……

The next day, after a quick wash, the group set off to venture deep into the Sunset Forest and soon arrived at the area where the thousand-year-old soul beasts roamed.

Not daring to venture any deeper, he wandered horizontally around the outer area of ​​Sunset Forest, searching for a suitable soul beast to be Oscar's fourth soul ring.

The choice of spirit rings was entrusted to Tang San, because Tang San had the deepest and most extensive knowledge of spirit beasts, and also the richest theoretical knowledge.

"There is a group of pink scorpions about 200 meters to the left front. They are shrouded in a pink mist. It is impossible to estimate the exact number, but the preliminary judgment is that there are probably more than a thousand."

Zhu Zhuqing's voice suddenly entered everyone's minds through Ning Rongrong's mental connection, and the marching group immediately stopped.

"Pink scorpions living in groups? Pink mist? Could it be the Pink Lady?"

Based on the crucial information Zhu Zhuqing relayed, Tang San quickly connected it to a type of soul beast his teacher had once mentioned.

"What kind of spirit beast is that?"

Ma Hongjun rubbed his hands together; the name instinctively excited him.

I've heard that some soul beasts resemble humans. Could it be that I've stumbled upon one this time?

Tang San was speechless at this sight, but he still explained: "The Pink Lady is a scorpion-like social soul beast with a gentle temperament. Its body is transparent pink, like pink crystal, similar to the Ice Jade Scorpion of the far north. However, the Pink Lady is not as aggressive as the Ice Jade Scorpion."
