Douluo Continent: We agreed on a simulation, but they've come to life?

……

Sunset Forest.

The closer you get to the core, the more corpses are scattered everywhere. Among them are soul masters and soul beasts. There is no flesh and blood, but the bones are all mottled in color, which means that the poison is extremely potent and has penetrated deep into the bone marrow.

These remains have been soaked in poison for countless years, and the depth of the erosion is unimaginable to ordinary people. If any living creature were to come into contact with them, it would probably not survive for even a short while.

And in this place that ordinary people can only look up to and dare not set foot in.

Several figures easily broke through the thick fog and entered this forbidden land.

Leading the group was a middle-aged man dressed in a gray outfit with a cold expression. Behind him were several burly men dressed similarly, clearly belonging to the same faction. At the very center was a beautiful young woman.

Although her appearance was top-notch, her slightly furrowed brows and the impatience and disgust in her pink-blue eyes ruined that beauty.

"How much longer do we have to go?!" Tang Wutong shouted angrily.

"It should be soon." The middle-aged man in the lead looked embarrassed and scratched his head. They had never been here before, so how could they find it so quickly?

"Useless." Tang Wutong kicked a tree trunk beside her, snorted, and walked forward without looking back.

The several Haotian Sect experts behind them exchanged glances, all seeing the bitterness in each other's eyes, and could only follow.

What kind of ancestor did the sect leader find for them?

Fortunately, within a few tens of minutes, the poisonous miasma did indeed slowly dissipate, and they saw the outermost group of Seven Absolute Azure Phosphorous Flowers, as well as the valley that had been hidden here for nearly ten thousand years, isolated from the world.

"This should be... the place."

Tang Wutong's expression softened slightly. She glanced coldly at the several "useless" people around her who had fervent expressions. If she didn't have to rely on them, she wouldn't have brought them along at all. A bunch of Tang family vassals and servants, how dare they covet the immortal herb?

It's all Da Ming and Er Ming's fault. She had taken leave from Shrek Academy and originally planned to have those two good-for-nothings take her here, but they made excuses that they had important business and found a few people from the Haotian Sect to accompany her.

"Everyone, wait here."

Tang Wutong said calmly.

"Miss, you..." The middle-aged man's expression changed. If something happened to Tang Wutong, they would probably...

Tang Wutong gave him a cold glance, and the latter swallowed hard, then could only show a bitter expression and say no more.

"Humph……"

Tang Wutong strode into the valley.

A bunch of bastards who dare to try and get their hands on the immortal herb. This is the culmination of my father's years of hard work. Do you mortals even deserve it?

Ultimately, her mission was to retrieve the other two soul fragments: one was with Wang Dong'er, and the other was with the Imperial Beast.

This is the golden statue her father sculpted for her, the path to becoming a god.

Wang Dong'er suffers hardship, while she enjoys good fortune.

If she could also seize the auspicious beast's power of fortune and possess it herself, she would surely lead the entire continent once again and restore the glory of the Tang family.

This was very appealing to her; she admired her father and wanted to follow in his footsteps.

However, Wang Dong'er actually broke free from her father's control...

The thought of this clouded over Tang Wutong's pretty face, and she gritted her teeth: "Damn thing, wouldn't it be better if you just obediently let me replace you? Why do you have to struggle..."

She scoffed and clenched her fist: "Just a mere butterfly, does it really think it can escape my grasp?"

"Trying to run? Then I'll break all four of your limbs myself, and see where you can run then."

As Tang Wutong thought about it, her mood improved considerably, and her steps became more cheerful. Not long after descending to the mortal realm, she followed her father's example and first ate a fairy herb to whet her appetite. After absorbing it, with her talent, she would surely be able to advance to the Soul King level in an extremely short time.

A Soul King at fifteen years old—that's far more impressive than his father's achievements back then.

You should know that my father was only struggling at the Soul Master level when he was fifteen years old.

And she...

"..."

In the lush valley.

With the intrusion of an outsider, many immortal herbs were also awakened, emerging faintly from the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire, looking at the arrogant Tang Wutong with some surprise.

"you are?"

"I'm here to be assessed," Tang Wutong said calmly.

"An assessment?" Youyou was taken aback at first, then suddenly froze. Only now did she remember the man's instructions before he left ten thousand years ago. If it were before, she could have easily accepted them and given the girl a suitable immortal herb.

But the problem is... all the magical herbs in the entire canyon were picked clean by that kid before.

At this moment, apart from the first-generation immortal herb, all other flower seeds and seedlings have been uprooted. And this girl... can she absorb a 100,000-year soul ring in her fifth soul ring?

It's probably very difficult; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it's a matter of life and death.

"Can we begin?" Tang Wutong frowned slightly.

“This, this…” Youyou stammered, “I’m afraid that won’t work.”

"Huh?!?!" Tang Wutong exclaimed angrily, "What do you mean?"

A guard dog was actually stopping her from picking the herb from her own garden?!

That's outrageous!

"No." Youyou was on the verge of tears.

She was truly innocent. After all, it was Jiao Jiao who made the decision at the time, so she didn't say anything. But who would have thought that just a few days later, that guy would send someone to ask for the immortal herb?

"I'll give you a chance to explain," Tang Wutong said through gritted teeth.

"..."

"Actually, the immortal herb was...picked by a young boy," Youyou said timidly.

"So what if he picked them? It's such a huge medicinal garden, with so many precious herbs. Could he really have picked them all?" Tang Wutong said impatiently.

“Yes,” she said softly.

Tang Wutong: "..."

"You mean he picked all the immortal herbs in the entire herb garden?!" Tang Wutong instantly flew into a rage: "You bunch of good-for-nothings! My father entrusted you with guarding the herb garden, and this is how you guarded it? A bunch of idiots, good-for-nothings! You can't even do this simple task properly! And yet, you were allowed to stay in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, nurtured with the best spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and now that it's time to harvest the fruit, you actually..."

She was genuinely angry.

Without the magic herb, how can she replicate her father's path to godhood?

She had high hopes for this place; she couldn't possibly be left behind by that good-for-nothing Wang Dong'er, could she?

"I'm going to destroy your entire herb garden! You useless piece of trash who's good for nothing!" Tang Wutong roared.

But then she remembered that the Haotian Sect experts she had brought were still waiting outside the canyon, and even if they came in, they would be no match for such a group of 100,000-year-old soul beasts.

"..."

The scene was somewhat quiet.

Tang Wutong became increasingly embarrassed and annoyed, stomped her foot, and left.

Now that her father is being held back by the God of Destruction, he cannot easily check the situation in the lower realm. Although he has given her a mark, it cannot be easily mobilized unless it is a matter of life and death.

Alternatively, bring Da Ming and Er Ming and wipe out the entire Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.

But that's obviously impossible; the entire Immortal Herb Garden is one of Father's most important plans in Douluo Continent.

She didn't ask Youyou for any more information about the "thief," only knowing that he was a boy, and nothing else.

"We must...find it quickly!" Tang Wutong became increasingly anxious.

Those immortal herbs are the foundation upon which the Tang family can continue to dominate this continent in the future, and also her current source of confidence.

Her current strength is only at level forty-two. Without any immortal herbs, it will be difficult for her to advance to the Soul King realm...

"Damn it, damn it, damn it!!!"

Tang Wutong's eyes reddened as she gritted her teeth and roared.

"Once we get back, I'll make sure Da Ming and Er Ming investigate this matter thoroughly. Anyone who dares to steal my Tang family's immortal herbs will pay the price!"

……

Starry Sky Forest.

Lu Cheng was unaware of what had happened in the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire. He was playing around with Wang Dong'er and Tang Ya as they moved forward. The Body Sect also dispatched Elder Chen, the Sixth Elder, to accompany them and protect them.

Beside the campfire.

The night sky was dotted with stars. Lu Cheng sat cross-legged on the ground, with Tang Ya and Wang Dong'er whispering to each other beside him. This time, when they came out alone, their relationship had become much closer.

"Something feels... off."

Lu Cheng looked around, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes.

A familiar scent.

Based on his habits of dealing with those evil spirit masters, this faint aura really did seem to resemble them.

The key point is that it's not just one person.

Instead, they travel in large groups.

It was like a locust swarm passing through.

What are they doing in the Star Dou Great Forest?

Chapter 166 Reencounter with Ye Guyi; The Hunt for the Auspicious Beast ( )

Starry Sky Forest.

The area close to the core.

At the summit of a towering ancient tree, surrounded by mist, several figures in black robes slowly emerged. The leader possessed a profound and solid aura, clearly a top-tier expert, while those following behind him were all powerful figures at the Title Douluo level.

Only one figure seemed slightly out of place.

She removed her hood, revealing a pair of exquisitely beautiful faces. They were distinctly alluring yet possessed a dignified and elegant air. These two qualities should not have appeared on the same person, but they did.

Ye Guyi gathered her golden hair, but a look of surprise flashed across her pretty face for a moment, as if someone who shouldn't have been there had appeared in her field of vision.

"Bone Robe, what's wrong?"
