The next afternoon,
Zhao Changtian and Zhao Xin came to the town closest to the Xingdou Great Forest. This was Zhao Xin's fifth time here, and there was not much change from the past. The vendors' shouts, the children running back and forth, the mercenaries' bidding, and the combination of a middle-aged man, an old man and a young man like Zhao Xin and Zhao Changtian.
Zhao Xin and Zhao Changtian came to the hotel where they had stayed several times before to check in and rest. After traveling for such a long time today, the father and son decided to rest here for one night and go hunting soul beasts tomorrow.
At night, Zhao Xin sat cross-legged in the hotel room, quietly adjusting his state and preparing to obtain the fifth soul ring.
In the morning, Zhao Xin was awakened by his biological clock. After washing up in the bathroom, he put on the combat uniform he brought with him. This kind of clothing was developed by the Zhao family and was specially designed for participating in battles. This kind of clothing is very slimming and can better enable soul masters to exert their strength. Even when not possessed by martial spirits, this kind of clothing can resist the bite of soul beasts under 100 years old.
When Zhao Xin appeared in the hotel restaurant, Zhao Changtian had not arrived yet. After waiting for a few minutes, Zhao Xin decided to eat first since his stomach no longer protested.
A slap landed on Zhao Xin's shoulder, followed by a resounding voice, "You kid, you ate without even waiting for your father."
“Ahem.” Zhao Xin swallowed the crystal bun in his mouth with difficulty, without looking up. “You got up too late. I waited for a while, so I ordered some food for you to try.”
"You're anxious, and you can't keep calm?"
"No, I'm used to it."
"kindness."
The conversation between the two ended briefly. Zhao Xin and Zhao Changtian focused their attention on finishing the food. After Zhao Changtian arrived, the food on the table was eaten up in a flash. This also caused Zhao Xin to eat faster, after all, if the food was full, it would be gone.
After eating, Zhao Changtian wiped his mouth and said to Zhao Xin: "Eating is not about who comes earlier, but who eats faster. Look at me, although I came late, I finished earlier than you."
"Hehe." Zhao Xin uttered a string of ambiguous interjections, which made Zhao Changtian feel a little bit dizzy.
"Let's go. This place is still some distance away from the Star Forest."
"good."
.......
The town was only a dozen miles away from the Star Dou Great Forest. With the speed of Zhao Xin and Zhao Changtian, they reached the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest in less than twenty minutes.
"Get ready, we are going to the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest. Don't stay too far away from me." Zhao Changtian warned Zhao Xin.
This place is close to the outer area of the Star Dou Great Forest. After passing the danger warning signs, we will enter the Star Dou Great Forest.
Seeing the sign hanging on the tree not far away, Zhao Xin felt a sense of familiarity. He still clearly remembered what it was like when he first came here. Now it has been almost nine years, and now he needs to obtain the fifth spirit ring.
"I'm ready." Whenever Zhao Xin entered the dense Star Forest, he would feel isolated from the world. In fact, the Star Forest was like an independent kingdom, the kingdom of soul beasts.
One of the father and son is a Titled Douluo, and the other is a Quasi-Soul King with a top-level martial spirit. After entering the outer area, under the leadership of Zhao Changtian, they moved inward at full speed and headed towards the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest.
This was much better than when Zhao Xin and Zhao Changtian entered the Star Dou Great Forest before, mainly because Zhao Xin's soul power had increased greatly, and now he could rival ordinary soul emperors. At this time, Zhao Changtian had no intention of carefully exploring, and simply moved forward at full speed. He was shining with a layer of bright yellow light, and wherever he passed, the bushes on the ground opened up a path by themselves, and the strong aura released from him made low-level soul beasts dare not get close to him.
This is strength, relying on strength to force forward. Every two hours of progress, they rested for a quarter of an hour. When it was getting dark, judging by the strength of the soul beasts around them, they had passed the outer area and began to enter the mixed area.
Zhao Changtian's speed obviously slowed down. It was getting dark. With his own strength, it was not a big deal, but he had to take Zhao Xin with him, so he didn't dare to move forward at night. It was okay to take a rest at night, and it could also maintain Zhao Xin's own condition.
As they moved forward, they drove away several soul beasts that were not suitable for Zhao Xin. The two of them were already going deeper and deeper into the mixed zone.
Based on the distance, Zhao Xin could tell that the depth he had penetrated had exceeded the previous times he had been to the Xingdou Great Forest. He was nervous but also a little excited. As long as he was a soul master, who wouldn't want to go to the mysterious and dangerous place in the Xingdou Great Forest to take a look?
Further inside the mixed area is the core area, and the center of the core area is the most dangerous place. They are getting closer and closer to that place.
Among all the four areas of the Xingdou Great Forest, the largest areas are the outer area and the mixed area. The core area is much smaller. Of course, the soul beasts living in the core area are also extremely powerful. Without some background, which soul beast dares to live in the core area?
The distribution of the Xingdou Great Forest, which is strong inside and weak outside, makes sense. The further inward Zhao Xin goes, the stronger the breath of life in the air becomes. And this breath of life is very beneficial to any creature. Presumably, the most dangerous place in the core area is actually a paradise, the most suitable place for soul beasts to practice.
At this time, the sky had completely darkened and night had arrived. The roars and howls of soul beasts could be heard from time to time, as well as the chirping of insects and birds surrounding them.
Zhao Changtian stopped and looked at the sky through the gap in the tree canopy. He said in a deep voice: "We should have entered the middle of the mixed zone now. It is not conducive to moving at night, so we will rest here today. Son, we need to find a place to camp."
Zhao Changtian's Titled Douluo's mental power suddenly increased and quickly spread outward. After a moment, Zhao Changtian pointed in a direction and walked over with Zhao Xin.
This is a relatively high place, still surrounded by bushes.
Zhao Changtian combined his index finger and middle finger into a sword shape, with a sharp edge formed by soul power surging on it. The sword finger swept across, releasing several blade edges, clearing out the bushes.
Just like Zhao Xin had done before when he entered the Star Forest, he had to sleep in the open air. This was their camp tonight. Because they had to be prepared for any eventuality, sleeping in a tent was absolutely impossible.
Zhao Changtian looked around, and felt it with his spiritual power, and said in a deep voice: "There are many soul beasts around here, but from the process we just walked along, we can judge that there are no powerful soul beasts that have marked this place as their territory. We are moving very fast and have reached such a deep position now. Starting tomorrow, you may encounter a soul beast that suits you. I will keep watch tonight, you should rest well and be ready to fuse the soul ring at any time."
You are absolutely not allowed to make a fire in the Star Dou Great Forest. Soul beasts are not wild beasts, and many of them like fire. Of course, it is a different matter if you have a Titled Douluo father next to you.
Zhao Xin lit a fire. It was still a little chilly in the Star Forest at night, but the fire made a difference. Zhao Xin took out a thousand-year-old soul beast he had just hunted, skinned and deboned it skillfully, and roasted it over the fire.
The forest was very quiet, with only the sizzling sound of Zhao Xin grilling the meat and the crackling sound of the burning flames. Soon, the thousand-year soul beast in Zhao Xin's hand was grilled. "Father gives it to you."
Zhao Xin handed over the roasted soul beast meat in his hand and took a piece to eat.
"Yes, this kind of primitive barbecue has a unique flavor."
Zhao Xin took the water bag and drank a few sips of water. After a simple tidying up, he sat down and started practicing.
The forest was not pitch dark. The moonlight shone through the uneven shadows of the trees. Coupled with some small insects with glowing bodies, it gave people a strange sense of beauty. Zhao Changtian sat cross-legged on a tree with his eyes closed.
