Douluo Continent: Taking Tang San to fight Gangzi

Chapter 50 Heading to the Soul Hunter Forest

The next morning.

Xiao Lin and the other two prepared the tools they carried with them, but did not put them into the storage soul tool.

Wealth can be tempting, and both Xiao Lin and Tang San understood this principle.

Besides the specially designed water pouches that were easy to carry, the three of them also bought some food. Tang San, in particular, had some poison and insect repellent powder on him.

In this life, under Xiao Lin's influence, Tang San also began to enjoy reading and learn about the plants, animals, and poisons of this world.

Tang San didn't want to put himself, Xiao Lin, or Xiao Wu in danger because the medicinal herbs looked the same in the two worlds but had different medicinal properties.

The entrance to the Soul Hunting Forest is located 1,200 miles outside Notting City (as mentioned before, it's a map with more than three times the map size). If Tang Hao didn't have a dedicated plane, Xiao Lin and the others would have had to take a horse-drawn carriage.

Fortunately, Su Yuntao had already hired a carriage.

Soon, the three of them boarded Su Yuntao's carriage, which cost Su Yuntao fifteen silver soul coins.

Although Xiao Lin said that the earnings from this Soul Hunt would cover Tao Ge's travel expenses, Tao Ge still refused.

Because in Su Yuntao's mind, Xiao Lin's combat power was even more terrifying than his own, so he was essentially paid as a hired hand.

Tang San was in a similar situation. Su Yuntao was easily defeated by Tang San using his skills. In addition, Tang San also had healing abilities, which greatly increased the safety of the group when hunting souls.

As for Xiao Wu, she's just a slacker.

They boarded a carriage and headed to the Soul Hunter Forest.

On the carriage, Su Yuntao was wearing a rather loose-fitting outfit, which was his combat uniform after his martial spirit was attached to him.

The journey is very long; even by horse-drawn carriage, it will take more than three days.

Moreover, even though the group had not yet reached the Soul Hunter Forest, they could not completely let their guard down.

What if a spirit beast escapes from the Soul Hunter Forest?

On the carriage, Su Yuntao began to recount the mission in the Soul Hunting Forest.

"Speaking of which, it's all because of Master Lin Dong's paper. By the way, have you guys read Master Lin Dong's paper? It says that Soul Masters can absorb Soul Rings beyond their limits."

"The three of you have such high talent, so don't waste your time cultivating your physical strength."

As he spoke, Su Yuntao showed the three of them his arm muscles: "I've recently started training my body, hoping that when I break through level 30, I can absorb a stronger soul ring."

Su Yuntao dared not say that he had absorbed the soul ring beyond his limit.

Soon after Xiao Lin assured them that all three of them would absorb the second-thousand-year soul ring, Su Yuntao chose to end the topic and continue talking about the mission.

"Because of the matter of absorbing a spirit ring beyond its limit, Wang Fugui of the Wang family in Notting City has become more ambitious and is clamoring to absorb a second spirit ring that is seven hundred years old. The stronger a spirit beast's cultivation is, the more it likes to hide deep within."

"This means that our Soul Hunting Team may have to go deep into the Soul Hunting Forest, which means we don't have enough manpower. So you guys are the reinforcements I found."

Su Yuntao stared intently at Xiao Lin and Tang San, his gaze revealing a resolute determination.

These two genius teenagers are far stronger than him, and he is determined to succeed in this Soul Hunting Operation.

"What kind of martial soul does Wang Fugui possess, and what kind of soul beast's soul ring does he want to absorb?"

Xiao Lin asked, as he needed to understand the information about soul beasts more thoroughly.

Otherwise, if they encountered a monster-like soul beast with the numerical value that could challenge a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast in a hundred years, they would be in danger.

Although it is unlikely that such a soul beast would appear in the Soul Hunter Forest.

"Wang Fugui's martial soul is a coin box. When attacking, it can spray out countless coins. However, these coins are not very lethal and are not real coins, so they are only useful to some greedy human soul masters."

"So this time, the soul beast he wants is a seven-hundred-year-old bullet bee."

"Bullet Bee!? He's gone mad?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Lin suddenly raised his voice and shouted loudly.

In an instant, everyone in the carriage turned to look at Xiao Lin.

"What's wrong?"

Su Yuntao was puzzled. It was just a seven-hundred-year-old bullet bee, which might not even be able to break through Xiao Lin's protective soul power. What was there to worry about?

"What? What happened?"

"You have no idea what kind of soul beast the Bullet Bee is."

"Bullet bees are social soul beasts. Generally speaking, once the queen of the bullet bees has more than 500 years of cultivation, the scale of the bullet bee colony can occupy a small part of the Soul Hunting Forest."

"In other words, if that guy is looking for a 700-year-old bullet bee, then he will encounter a group of bullet bees that are around 700 years old."

"Under these circumstances, I wouldn't recommend going unless you have a Soul Master with a top-tier fire-attribute martial soul."

As soon as Xiao Lin finished speaking, the other three people in the carriage were shocked. Su Yuntao opened his mouth wide and then gasped.

"No way, Xiaolin, the Soul Hunting Forest isn't big enough to have such a powerful group of soul beasts. The Spirit Hall wouldn't allow them to have such a powerful group of soul beasts either."

Su Yuntao shook his head awkwardly; he still found it hard to believe.

If it were really as terrifying as Xiao Lin described, he would have encountered bullet bees long ago, given his numerous trips into the Soul Hunter Forest.

Xiao Lin frowned and continued, "Yes, that's true. These gregarious bullet bees usually don't appear in the small Soul Hunter Forest."

"But if the bullet bee doesn't have a queen and is just a single bullet bee, then it's even more unsuitable."

"Because there is only one Bullet Bee, its body will mutate, and a highly toxic organ will appear on its body. This toxicity can cause a low-level Soul Master to have difficulty breathing and lose the ability to fight if it just scratches the skin, and eventually suffocate to death."

"One shot, one kill—that's where the name 'Bullet Bee' comes from."

"If Wang Fugui just wants a speed-type soul skill, I advise him to get a different soul beast."

After Xiao Lin finished speaking, the three people in the carriage, each with a different appearance and expression, looked completely different.

Su Yuntao frowned: "Although this soul beast doesn't seem to be able to break through Xiaolin's defense, for us soul masters, it's a matter of death if we touch it."

Tang San lowered his head: There are such powerful toxins. I might collect them and see if I can combine them with my hidden weapons.

Xiao Wu tightened her thighs, hugged her calves with both hands, and touched her calves as if in phantom pain: Brother Lin is right, that bullet bee sting really hurts.

Su Yuntao looked at Xiao Lin with a troubled expression: "Xiao Lin, is there really no other way? That Wang Fugui gave each of us a hundred gold soul coins. If you join, you will also get that many gold soul coins."

"Brother Tao, this amount of money is not much. The Soul Hunting Team at the entrance of the Soul Hunting Forest only needs more than 5 gold soul coins for a ten-year soul beast."

Xiao Lin shook his head again. He wasn't afraid, and Tang San probably wasn't afraid either, but what about Xiao Wu?

Where are Tao and the others? What about the other Soul Hunter teams and Wang Fugui?

Does this mean that once the task is completed, we can ignore Wang Fugui, who issued the task?

This task is far too difficult, especially considering the need to protect the paying client.

"Alright, I'll ask if we can change it later, but you'll have to think of a suitable soul beast for me."

"Sure, but that's a separate price. Let Wang Fugui pay, and I'll tell him it's appropriate. This is called paying for knowledge."

Xiao Lin nodded, hoping that Su Yuntao would accept his opinion.

After all, the trio didn't come here specifically to suffer, but to broaden their horizons and gain experience.
