Douluo: Yu Hao is reborn, this Tang San is different

Chapter 38 Soul Hunting Forest
Huo Yuhao nodded awkwardly and accepted the instruction.

Looking at Huo Yuhao's obedient appearance, Xiao Yan first stretched out his body, then spread out his palms. After a slight silence, colorful flames slowly rose up.

Xiao Yan's soul senses constantly monitored the flame's temperature. Taking advantage of this moment of inactivity, he glanced at Huo Yuhao, who was gazing curiously at the flame in his palm. After a slight hesitation, he whispered, "On the Dou Qi Continent, alchemists can usually tell an alchemist's rank by the color of the flame they use."

"The flames of ordinary alchemists are pale yellow. The higher the grade, the darker the color and the stronger the power."

Hearing this, Huo Yuhao blinked, pointed his finger at the flame in Xiao Yan's hand, and asked in astonishment, "Then why is Teacher's flame colorful?"

"Haha, what I mentioned earlier is the flame commonly seen among alchemists. In the circle of alchemists in the Dou Qi Continent, in addition to relying on Dou Qi to catalyze the yellow flame to refine pills, there is another way, which is to borrow fire to refine pills."

Xiao Yan smiled slightly, with a hint of pride in his smile, and said:
"Across the vast expanse of this Dou Qi Continent, there exist strange fires. Perhaps they are flames from volcanoes, or perhaps they have been forged deep underground for millennia... These flames are infinitely more powerful than those catalyzed by Dou Qi."

"The flame in my hand is called the Imperial Flame. It is a fusion of twenty-three different kinds of fire. Once, it was unbeatable, and any other flame pales in comparison."

"Unfortunately, the Emperor Flame is no longer as powerful as it once was. After I came to this world, the original fire of the twenty-two different kinds of fire was scattered around the world. Now, it is just a facade, and its power is far less than before."

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao's face was filled with curiosity, his eyes gleaming with a desire for knowledge. He couldn't wait to ask, "Teacher, what are the twenty-two kinds of strange fire?"

Slightly raising his head, Xiao Yan gazed into the distance, his thoughts drifting back to the days when he had been with the Strange Fire. He slowly said, "Yuhao, I'll tell you about the Strange Fire later when I have time. Our top priority right now is to refine the Qi Gathering Powder."

After saying this, Xiao Yan smiled slightly, and the colorful flames in his palms continued to surge. After a moment, his palms slowly merged and the flames dissipated.

Seeing Huo Yuhao's eyes full of curiosity, Xiao Yan felt quite relieved. He patted his shoulder and said earnestly, "Yuhao, watch carefully. Once you break through to the Fighter level, I will teach you how to refine pills. This alchemy technique is more than just combining herbs. There are many different aspects involved, and every step is crucial to the success of the pill."

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao's eyes widened and he stared at Xiao Yan intently, nodding vigorously, as if afraid of missing any details.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yan adjusted his state and his eyes fell on the medicinal materials prepared for refining the Qi Gathering Powder. Then, he reached out and picked up a herb emitting a green luster and placed it into the jumping colorful flames. The flames instantly wrapped around the Qingling Qi Gathering Grass, making a sizzling sound.

Finally, wisps of green smoke rose up, carrying a faint fragrance.

Xiao Yan was concentrating on controlling the temperature of the flame in his palm. At this moment, if the temperature of the flame was not controlled well, if it was a little higher, the green herb would be burned into a ball of empty air.

As the flames continued to roast the green herb, over time, a little bit of black impurities appeared inside.

Looking at the black impurities that appeared in the green medicinal herbs, Xiao Yan flicked his fingers and expelled them directly from the medicinal herbs.

After repeating this several times, Xiao Yan had completely removed all the impurities from the herbs.

Finally, the two liquids with different properties touched each other in Xiao Yan's hands, and suddenly there were bursts of strange sounds, and a faint white mist rose from the flames.

After a while, the white mist gradually weakened, and a rough-surfaced pill prototype quietly emerged from the flames. Meanwhile, outside the Soul Hunting Forest.

At dawn, the sky was a pale pale, and strands of morning light penetrated the thin clouds, covering the earth with a soft golden veil. Tang San, carrying the mysterious trident wrapped in black cloth on his back, strode steadily towards the outskirts of the Soul Hunting Forest.

In Tang San's impression, the forest should be full of nature, quiet and peaceful, with fresh air and sparsely populated areas.

But the soul hunting forest in front of me, at least outside the forest, feels like a big market.

Outside the forest, there are large houses, or shops, with various shouts coming one after another, and simple man-made paths crisscrossing them.

"We have a warrant to form a team to hunt powerful soul beasts, there are still two people left."

"Hunting agile soul beasts, warrants for seven people, ten gold soul coins."

"Looking for offensive teammates with warrants to hunt defensive soul beasts. We're short three people. After a successful hunt, we'll split the soul beast's body equally and pay each person five gold soul coins."

"Come quickly! Five of us have gathered the warrants and are specializing in hunting control-type soul beasts. We sincerely invite two partners who are good at long-range attacks to join us. The reward is generous: eight gold soul coins."

"We are sincerely recruiting auxiliary spirit masters to hunt healing spirit beasts together with us using hand orders. We have four people now, and we need three more."

"Urgently seeking a strong attack spirit master! Six people hold warrants and are preparing to hunt plant life spirit beasts. We are short one person. After completing the hunt, each person will receive ten gold spirit coins."

Similar shouts came one after another, and most of the shops selling weapons, armor, and various food supplies.

After hearing the last shout, Tang San's eyes suddenly lit up and he strode forward without hesitation. His steps were steady and he exuded a restrained but not to be ignored aura as he came in front of the person who shouted.

"I am a strong attack spirit master, I can join." Tang San raised his head slightly, looked directly into the other party's eyes calmly, and said in a clear and firm voice.

The man who was recruiting was a burly middle-aged man. He was stunned at first, and his eyes quickly looked at Tang San. After a slight pause, he smiled and said, "Little brother, judging from your appearance, you shouldn't be very old, right? I'm afraid that when we get to the Soul Hunting Forest, I will have to take care of you."

"Where did this little brat come from? You haven't even grown all your hair yet, and you're already wandering around the Soul Hunting Forest! Get out of the way! Don't waste our time!"

Seeing that the last spot on the team he wanted was taken away by a child, a soul master on the periphery immediately cursed.

After hearing the curse, Tang San frowned slightly, and an invisible sense of oppression emanated from his body. He walked steadily to the front of the big man. Although he was much shorter than the big man, he was not inferior in momentum at all.
