Chapter 61 Danger isn't just for soul beasts, it also affects people.
Bibi Dong was somewhat stunned, realizing that her disciple's knowledge of the Star Dou Great Forest was beyond her imagination, and in some aspects, she even knew more and in more detail than she, her teacher.
This suddenly made her feel awkward, as if she was not suited to be Ye Qifeng's teacher.
Bibi Dong's cheeks flushed slightly, but she still maintained the demeanor of a teacher and took over Ye Qifeng's words, first praising him: "Not bad, it seems that you have a very detailed understanding, Xiao Feng."
Then continued:
"The Star Dou Great Forest is a wonderful place. It is home to numerous soul beasts and can be considered a cradle of soul beasts. It is a favorite place for powerful soul masters."
"Almost every Soul Master who is about to break through can obtain the most suitable Soul Ring from it."
"But it is also an extremely dangerous place, and a considerable number of Soul Masters die there every year."
"Unlike the Soul Hunting Forest, which is used to raise soul beasts, the soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest are extremely dangerous and highly aggressive, and they have no affection for humans. As long as humans enter, they may face attacks from soul beasts that are thousands or even tens of thousands of years old at any time."
At this point, Bibi Dong spoke at a rapid pace:
"Don't be bound by the division of soul beast regions as described in the classic texts."
"In the Star Dou Great Forest, it's hard to guarantee that nothing will go wrong. It's possible that ten-thousand-year-old or even one-hundred-thousand-year-old soul beasts from the inner perimeter could run to the outer perimeter. This could even trigger a beast tide, causing all the high-age soul beasts from the inner perimeter to flock to the outer area."
"Therefore, when entering the Star Dou Great Forest, you must be extremely careful."
At this moment, Bibi Dong's expression turned serious:
"In addition, remember one more thing: danger comes not only from spirit beasts, but also from spirit masters who are also human."
"Human greed is terrifying, more terrifying than you can imagine. In this world, there are always some people who like to take risks, disregard human life, and hunt others to seize resources."
"Therefore, it is essential to understand the principle that you can't see into someone's heart, and you shouldn't flaunt your wealth. Also, don't easily trust others, especially in the Starry Sky Forest."
Bibi Dong paused for a moment, her beautiful eyes looking at Ye Qifeng:
"Xiao Feng, you are not a Soul Master yet. After entering the forest, you must always remember not to stray too far from your teacher and Nihuang."
"I won't say much about the other teachers."
"Okay, teacher, I understand!" Ye Qifeng nodded in reply.
Just then, Nihuang, who was driving the carriage, transmitted her voice through her soul power:
"Your Holiness, we have entered the vicinity of the Star Dou Great Forest by about 100 kilometers. There is a small town on the outskirts ahead. It is already afternoon and dusk is approaching. Should we stay overnight or go directly to the Star Dou Great Forest?"
Bibi Dong pondered for a moment after hearing this, and then used her soul power to transmit a message to Nihuang, saying, "Let's go directly to the Star Dou Great Forest and camp there for the night."
Neither Bibi Dong nor Nihuang were weak women; they often slept outdoors in the wild when they were on missions or hunting for spirit rings.
Even though their campsite was in the Star Dou Great Forest, they weren't afraid. After all, both of them were Title Douluo, and it was the soul beasts in the forest that they should be afraid of.
Moreover, Bibi Dong also intended to train disciples and let Ye Qifeng see what the Star Dou Great Forest was like at night.
"Okay." Having received the reply, Nihuang immediately drove the carriage through the outer town and continued on her way.
Half an hour later.
The carriage stopped; they had arrived at their destination, the edge of the Starry Sky Forest.
Once you get here, the carriage can't go any further. Beyond that lies the Star Dou Great Forest, where there are no more roads for carriages to travel, and you can only walk.
The carriage needed to be entrusted to someone for safekeeping.
"Your Holiness, we have reached the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest," Nihuang transmitted her voice into the carriage.
After receiving a telepathic message from Nihuang, Bibi Dong and Ye Qifeng stepped out of the carriage and jumped off.
Not far away lies the lush and verdant Starry Sky Forest.
As far as the eye can see, there is an endless green ocean, like a huge green beast lying on the ground, which is awe-inspiring.
A gentle breeze caressed my face, carrying the unique fragrance of plants and earth, refreshing and indescribably soothing.
The roadside where the carriage stopped was a temporary gathering place.
In the settlement, many people had already set up tents. Some were cooking over a fire while it was still daylight, while others were eating the dry rations they had brought with them.
These people are all Soul Masters, without any surprises.
Ordinary people dare not appear in this place. The Star Dou Great Forest is dangerous even for Soul Masters. Ordinary people here will only have one fate: to become snacks for Soul Beasts.
Judging from the clothing of the people gathered there, almost all of them were commoner Soul Masters with no real power or influence.
Some people hunt soul beasts to obtain soul rings, either by forming their own teams or by spending gold soul coins.
Others, however, do it to earn gold soul coins to support their families.
These people usually organize themselves into a group to help Soul Masters who need to break through their cultivation level to hunt for Soul Rings, and then receive a reward.
This group has a special name – the Soul Hunters.
The gathering place was a bit noisy, but not chaotic, clearly indicating that someone was in charge of maintaining order.
Suddenly, a magnificent carriage arrived, immediately drawing the attention of everyone in the settlement. They were stunned to see two stunningly beautiful women with a richly dressed little boy.
The male soul masters in the arena were particularly captivated, their eyes glued to Bibi Dong and Nihuang, never looking away.
One person almost had his ear ripped off by his female companion, letting out a scream of agony.
A few unscrupulous individuals couldn't help but reveal lewd glances in their eyes.
Although everyone was curious, no one dared to go up and strike up a conversation.
The unique emblem on the carriage, composed of six bright and eye-catching patterns—chrysanthemum, ghost, dragon, sword, hammer, and crown—constantly reminded them that this was the carriage of the Spirit Hall.
The people on the carriage were undoubtedly members of the Spirit Hall, and most likely important figures.
They are not to be trifled with.
After getting off the carriage, Nihuang released her spiritual energy, sweeping across the gathering place.
Judging from the fluctuations of their soul power, none of the people in the settlement had a soul power level lower than level 30.
Normally, before reaching level 30, Soul Masters obtain Soul Rings by hunting Soul Beasts in the Soul Hunting Forest, a special area where the Empire keeps Soul Beasts.
Unless they really can't find a suitable soul beast, almost no one would come to the Star Dou Great Forest to obtain one when they are in their first or second soul ring stage, like Ye Qifeng did.
Therefore, none of the people in the settlement have a soul power level below level 30.
