Chapter 46: Heading to the Star Dou Great Forest
The Little Rabbit, having obtained a hundred-year limit second Soul Ring, was showing off all day long. Fortunately, Lin Yang was there to make her quickly recognize reality.
Even if the Little Rabbit wasn't the same Little Rabbit who was "bullied" every day in the past, Lin Yang was still that same Lin Yang!
Suppressing a whimpering rabbit with a single hand was as easy as turning over a palm!
There was no helping it; this stupid rabbit was like a clockwork toy that needed to be wound up from time to time, otherwise, she would try to turn the World upside down.
Xiao Wu's Second Soul Skill was still Charm, a control-type soul skill.
This skill might not sound like much, but Spiritual-type abilities are considered extremely broken in the early stages for a Soul Master.
Among those of the same rank, very few can resist Spiritual control.
Well... except for Lin Yang.
The Little Rabbit had used her Charm soul skill on Lin Yang, but the result... Lin Yang only thought the Little Rabbit was winking at him, feeling absolutely nothing at all.
The Little Rabbit tried several more times before finally admitting, unwillingly, that Lin Yang's Spiritual Power was stronger than hers.
After all, with the accumulation of three lifetimes, it was understandable for Lin Yang's Spiritual Power to be a bit stronger.
As for a transformed Soul Beast like the Little Rabbit, she could only start accumulating from scratch, so naturally, there was a gap.
But regardless, being immune to Spiritual control was definitely a good thing.
The Little Rabbit didn't take it to heart either; anyway, being discouraged in front of Lin Yang wasn't a new occurrence.
Although there was a "tiny" bit of an unexpected twist, she had at least reached the two-ring herself, the Little Rabbit comforted herself.
Lin Yang was at the two-ring, and she was at the two-ring; rounding it off, weren't they both the same?
However, this Ah Q-style spiritual victory didn't last long before a piece of news struck the Little Rabbit like a bolt from the blue.
Lin Yang had broken through!
Little Rabbit: Who am I? Where am I? What am I supposed to do?
Xiao Wu looked at Lin Yang with a conflicted expression, her small hand constantly poking his arm.
"How could you break through so fast? This doesn't make sense!"
Lin Yang gave a fake smile: "You sound like you're not satisfied?"
"Of course not!"
The Little Rabbit had long ago trained her ability to read the room, and she backed down at light speed.
Lin Yang gave a light snort: "I'm going to the Star Dou Great Forest tomorrow. You stay here."
"I want to go too. I want to go back and see Da Ming and Er Ming."
Lin Yang hesitated slightly, but thinking that Xiao Wu returning to the Star Dou Great Forest was like going home, he didn't refuse.
"Then let's make it the day after tomorrow. Pack your things; we probably won't be coming back for a while."
...Two days later.
"Time to go!"
Lin Yang locked the gate of the small courtyard and turned to board the carriage.
Xiao Wu looked at the courtyard with lingering affection.
Without realizing it, she had lived in this courtyard for over three months.
Three months wasn't long, but she felt this was the second place, besides the Lake of Life, that could give her peace of mind and warmth.
This place held almost all her beautiful memories of the human World.
Seeing Xiao Wu's nostalgic look, Lin Yang chuckled.
"Alright, don't be sad. I already bought this courtyard yesterday. You can stay here whenever you want, for as long as you like."
Hearing this, the clouds on Xiao Wu's face instantly turned to sunshine, her face full of surprise: "Are you serious?"
"Naturally," Lin Yang smiled.
Houses in Soto City weren't cheap, but the two of them had earned quite a bit at the Great Soul Fighting Arena, so buying a small courtyard was more than affordable.
Now that Xiao Wu was no longer sad, she quickly sat in the carriage.
This carriage was the same one Lin Yang had used before, just with a more comfortable cabin.
Over the past three months, the stable had raised this old horse to be plump and strong; now it was time for it to pull its weight.
The carriage soon left Soto City, heading east toward the Star Dou Great Forest!
The goal of this trip to the Star Dou Great Forest was simple: to find a suitable third Soul Ring.
Lin Yang already had a few targets in mind, but whether they were truly suitable would depend on the situation when the time came.
After all, as the largest gathering place for Soul Beasts on the continent, it was hard to say if his knowledge of Soul Beasts would be applicable to the Star Dou Great Forest.
As for Xiao Wu?
She certainly knew many types of Soul Beasts, but Lin Yang's emotional intelligence wasn't zero; how could he possibly ask such a question?
Soto City was over four hundred kilometers from the Star Dou Great Forest. If the two of them traveled on foot day and night, it would take about three or four days.
The reason for choosing a carriage was, on one hand, that Lin Yang wasn't in a great rush, as it didn't interfere with his cultivation anyway.
On the other hand, he wanted to use this time to further guide Xiao Wu, to see if he could help her open the "Transparent World."
By now, Xiao Wu's Softness Breathing Technique was already quite perfect.
Her various moves were also nearing completion, but she just couldn't grasp the "Transparent World."
In Xiao Wu's words, the feeling was like looking at a flower through a fog, separated by an invisible membrane!
As someone who had been through it, Lin Yang knew very well that her current situation had nothing to do with talent or skill; she just lacked a suitable opportunity.
When the opportunity arrives, everything will fall into place!
If the opportunity hasn't come, then everything is like trying to catch the moon in the water.
So along the way, Lin Yang didn't say too much to avoid adding to Xiao Wu's burden for no reason.
Instead, he guided her to continuously consolidate the foundations of her Breathing Technique.
A tower of ten thousand feet rises from the ground!
Repeat, repeat—until you reach your goal, you must keep repeating!
And Xiao Wu once again experienced that feeling of being in deep water and scorching fire.
Ten days later, the two of them drove the carriage to the small town on the outermost edge of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Such towns were basically standard features for any gathering place of Soul Beasts, large or small, so they didn't need much introduction.
However, the town near the Star Dou Great Forest was significantly larger, like a miniature city, not at all inferior to Nuoding City.
The two of them left their carriage at a stable, and after eating and drinking their fill in the town, they went back to an inn to rest for the night to replenish their energy.
Meanwhile, in the center of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Moonlight spilled down, and starlight dotted the area, making this region look like a true paradise on earth.
And at the center of this paradise was a large, clear lake.
At that moment, a massive dark shadow suddenly rose rapidly from the bottom of the lake.
Boom!
Accompanied by a huge splash, a monster with a bull's head and a snake's body appeared from the center of the lake. Just the part exposed above the water reached a staggering hundred meters.
"Er Ming, I sense her presence!"
As the low, booming voice rang out, two moons suddenly appeared in a corner of the lakeshore.
Looking closely, these were no moons, but clearly a pair of giant yellow beast pupils.
By the faint moonlight, the owner of these giant beast pupils soon became visible. It was also over a hundred meters tall, resembling a combination of a gorilla and King Kong.
Its massive body was like a mountain that was breathing.
"She must be in trouble. I'm going to get her right now!"
Er Ming's massive body began to slowly stand up, his humming voice like rolling thunder!
"No need," Da Ming said in a deep voice.
"Going out now will only attract human experts. Wait until she enters our territory."
After a moment of silence, Er Ming's humming voice rang out: "Understood!"
