Douluo: Soul Breaking Spear

Chapter 25 Entering the Sunset Forest
After about two hours of riding in a carriage, Yang Wudi and Yang Podi finally arrived at the outskirts of Sunset Forest.

Outside the Sunset Forest is a Soul Hunting Town, which is not very big, but has a lot of people. There are all kinds of people, mainly some restaurants and hotels, including some that sell Soul Beast Forest survival items.

Seeing that Yang Po Di was quite curious, Yang Wudi did not rush into the Sunset Forest. Instead, he took his grandson around.

The most common thing in Soul-Splitting Town is vendors selling all kinds of things, including some forest necessities, such as swords, various types of weapons, bows and arrows, ropes, tents, and even some food, such as instant forest food jerky and the like.

Normal people cannot make a fire in the soul beast forest, and they don't even dare to make a fire. The fire can easily attract some ferocious soul beasts, especially at night when all kinds of large and small soul beasts will appear, such as poisonous spiders and ants.

Of course, there are some more important things, including the feces of some rare soul beasts, such as the feces of the Titan Giant Ape or the feces of some poisonous spiders, which are all powerful hunters in the forest.

Although these little things look inconspicuous, they are essential in the forest. With these things, a lot of troubles can be avoided at night, and their aura can scare away many sneak attacks from soul beasts.

Others sell items obtained from the Soul Beast Forest, including the limbs and even important organs of some soul beast corpses, such as rhinoceros horns, bear paws of bear soul beasts, etc. These are either tonic plants or have certain medicinal value.

There are even some people selling various poisonous or medicinal herbs, which are also found in the Soul Hunting Forest. Relatively few people enter the Soul Hunting Forest, and at least many places have not been carefully excavated by people, so some rare medicinal herbs will grow in many places.

Of course, there is another type of people who are particularly numerous in the Soul Hunting Forest, and that is mercenaries. Their main job is to help people hunt for the soul beasts and soul rings they need, and the price is determined according to the age and scarcity of the soul beasts. The prices are all very expensive.

For example, a simple hundred-year soul beast would cost at least several thousand gold soul coins, and a thousand-year soul beast would require tens of thousands of gold soul coins. The prices of some rare or ferocious soul beasts would double or even exceed that. As for ten-thousand-year soul beasts, there are very few mercenaries to help hunt them, because a normal ten-thousand-year soul beast needs a Soul Emperor-level warrior to hunt it, and it requires going deep into the Soul Hunting Forest, which is very dangerous.

Of course, if you ask mercenaries to hunt for spirit rings, you will usually discuss another issue, which is that the body of the spirit beast and everything on it belong to the mercenary team.

This also makes it very dangerous at times. If a soul bone appears, there will often be internal strife or the employer will be killed to silence him. After all, the value of soul bones is very exaggerated. For example, the last auction only saw a thousand-year soul bone, but it cost hundreds of thousands of gold soul coins.

After Yang Wudi took his grandson for a stroll in the Soul Hunting Town, the two walked straight into the Sunset Forest.

The Sunset Forest is not a forest for captive soul beasts in the Empire. No warrant is required to enter. Although no hundred thousand year old soul beasts have been found yet, there are still many high-level soul beasts. Otherwise, it would not be the largest soul beast forest in the Tiandou Empire.

Some mercenaries also looked at Yang Wudi and Yang Podi and wanted to come forward to sell their products, but they were scared away by Yang Wudi's ferocious face. Of course, there were also people who saw Yang Wudi, an old man, bringing a child into the Soul Hunting Forest. They seemed to be whispering something, and there were even shadows flashing.

After the two entered the Sunset Forest, their speed slowed down.

There are all kinds of tall trees and weeds throughout the Soul Hunting Forest. The weeds are mainly blue silver grass, and there are also various unknown grass plants or vines. Even walking is walking on the weeds. Obviously, many people walked and slowly formed an inconspicuous small road. After entering the Sunset Forest, there will be all kinds of strange sounds, hissing, chirping and even some animal roars. Of course, a bird soul beast will fly over the sky from time to time and make a cry.

Yang Wudi was not in a hurry to take Yang Podi to hunt soul beasts. Instead, he kept introducing some soul beasts in the forest to Yang Podi, including the characteristics of the plants he had seen.

For example, the bamboo we just passed by is the Lone Bamboo Soul Beast. Although this type of soul beast has relatively poor attack power, it is still dangerous if you get close to it. Just like the seemingly simple vines you encounter on the road, they are also soul beasts. If people or animals get close to them, they will easily be entangled, which is also dangerous.

Of course, we also encountered some spider or ant-like soul beasts, but many of them were ten-year soul beasts and had relatively low value.

In this way, the two of them lingered in the Sunset Forest for almost a day, but did not encounter any suitable soul beasts. Although there were two power-type soul beasts, they were too young and they were really not worth looking at.

At night, Yang Wudi found a vacant lot, set up a tent, and scattered some feces of some unknown soul beast around it.

Then the two began to chat: "Po Di, how do you feel about spending a day in Sunset Forest today?"

"Grandpa, I think the Soul Beast Forest is full of dangers. Even some small soul beasts may be very dangerous, and there will be unknown attacks at any time."

"Defeat the enemy, you are right. We must be extremely careful in the Soul Beast Forest and cannot let our guard down for even a moment. If we are not careful, we will encounter various attacks, and some of them will be very strange."

"We are only at the outskirts of Sunset Forest now. If we enter the central part of Sunset Forest, we will encounter many ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts. I have even encountered soul beasts that are over 8 years old. The strength of such soul beasts is almost comparable to that of human Titled Douluo."

"Grandpa, a soul beast that has just passed ten thousand years should be easy for you to deal with."

"Defeat the enemy, you are right. For me, a 5-year-old soul beast is really nothing. Grandpa, I can even defeat soul beasts from 7 to years ago. But you must be absolutely careful, you must not get hurt in the soul beast forest. As long as you get hurt, the bloody smell on your body will attract attacks from all kinds of soul beasts, one after another."

"And once you enter the Soul Hunting Forest, you basically go there to hunt for soul rings. If you get injured, it will affect your ability to absorb soul rings and face various attacks, so you must pay special attention to protecting yourself and don't fight soul beasts unless necessary."

"Defeat the enemy, and the most important thing is, you have to remember, in the Soul Beast Village, the most dangerous are never the soul beasts, but the people. Just like now."

Obviously, Yang Wudi felt something.
