Chapter 12: Arriving at Sunset Forest, Hunting the 2,000-Year Soul Beast Dark Thunder Dragon
"Don't worry, Junior Brother!"
"Senior Sister, I promise that you won't get hurt at all~"
Hu Liena was ecstatic and walked out with Ye Han in a friendly manner.
At the same time, she didn't forget to shout to the two girls who were still stunned in the courtyard:
"Teacher! Elder Ling Yuan! Let's set off quickly to hunt soul rings for Junior Brother!"
This made Bibi Dong furious, and Ling Yuan felt an indescribable taste.
In this way, the group of four set off for their destination, "Sunset Forest."

Sunset Forest
One of the three most famous soul beast gathering places on the continent. However, in terms of both area and the number of soul beasts, it was at the bottom of the three.
The limited living environment made it difficult for high-year soul beasts to be born here. Not to mention 100,000-year soul beasts, even 70,000 or 80,000-year soul beasts were very rare.
This indirectly led to the fact that soul masters who sought powerful soul rings rarely set foot here.
The Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire had not been known to the outside world for a long time, mainly because it had not been explored in-depth by powerful people.
Of course, it was also due to the protection of the Seven Absolute Flowers of the Green Scales, which made those who were not good with poisons stay away from it.
Soul masters in their growth stages were more inclined to come to Sunset Forest to hunt soul rings due to the above reasons.
Wuhun City was very far from the Sunset Forest, but for a Titled Douluo, it was nothing.
Ling Yuan carried Ye Han on the road, while Bibi Dong took Hu Liena.
As the sun was approaching, Ye Han and the other three successfully arrived outside the Sunset Forest.
As soon as they stopped, Hu Liena ran over to hug Ye Han and smiled:
"Xiao Han Junior Brother, you must follow me, Senior Sister, when you go in later~"
On the way, she recognized Ye Han as the dirty kid from yesterday and loved him even more. After all, Ye Han yesterday was too pitiful, and she absolutely couldn't let that happen again!
"Yeah, I will follow Senior Sister Nana obediently~"
Ye Han nodded and leaned into her arms, pretending to be well-behaved.
Ling Yuan looked at this scene, feeling a little uncomfortable but quickly adjusted.
Bibi Dong, on the side, was furious but could only pretend to be calm and interrupted:
"It's getting late now, let's act!"
"After entering, give priority to hunting the third soul ring for Nana!"
With Bibi Dong's order, the four of them stepped into the Sunset Forest.
The dense trees blocked the afterglow of the setting sun, and the light dimmed. The sunlight could only shine through the sparse gaps and sprinkle on the ground in patches.
According to the plan, everyone first searched for a suitable third soul ring for Hu Liena.
After a while, they soon found a demon fox soul beast suitable for Hu Liena in the periphery.
Bibi Dong easily injured it, and Hu Liena finished it off with a knife and began to absorb it on the spot.
"Xiao Han, are you afraid of the scene just now?"
Ling Yuan leaned over and asked softly.
Ye Han got into Ling Yuan's arms and said coquettishly:
"I'm not afraid with Sister Ling Yuan protecting me~!"
Ling Yuan smiled delicately and rubbed Ye Han's head lovingly.
Their intimate interaction caused dissatisfaction with Bibi Dong, who suddenly interrupted:
"According to intelligence, there are many dark-attributed sub-dragons around four hundred years old on the outskirts of the Sunset Forest."
"Elder Ling Yuan, you stay to take care of Nana. I will personally take Xiao Han to hunt for the first soul ring."
When Ye Han heard about hunting for soul rings, he immediately remembered the content of the second test and hurriedly said:
"Teacher, for my first soul ring, I need to absorb the soul ring of a two-thousand-year-old soul beast!"
When these words came out, Ling Yuan and Bibi Dong were both stunned.
After Bibi Dong slowly came to her senses, she immediately frowned and shouted:
"Nonsense! The upper limit of the first soul ring is 423 years. If it exceeds this, the body will explode and die because it cannot bear it!"
Ye Han knew without guessing that this was Yu Dashi's bullshit theory and immediately refuted:
"Whether there is an upper limit to the age of absorbing soul rings is not fixed or absolute!"
"The maximum age of the soul ring can be broken through as the soul master's physical strength increases!"
"A soul master's physical strength can be improved by having a strong martial soul, taking high-age whale glue, and absorbing soul bones!"
"I have eaten three pieces of ten-thousand-year-old whale glue and absorbed a ninety-thousand-year-old soul bone. Now my body is strong enough to absorb a two-thousand-year soul ring!"
Ling Yuan listened patiently and inexplicably felt that it made sense.
Bibi Dong's face, which was displeased just now, became even gloomier at this moment.
The upper limit of the absorption of the first soul ring is 423 years, but this is the conclusion drawn by Xiao Gang after vomiting blood in research.
Then, under her promotion, the entire Douluo Continent strictly abided by this rule.
If improving physical strength can increase the upper limit of the absorption period, then isn't Xiao Gang's theory wrong?
And she is the one who promotes this rule—then aren't she and Xiao Gang the sinners who mislead the world?!
Xiao Gang's theory is not wrong!
Bibi Dong directly denied with a gloomy face:
"No matter how strong the physique is, the upper limit of the absorption of the first soul ring can only be 423 years, not even one year more!"
After saying this, she was a little angry and could not calm down. She immediately gave up the idea of taking Ye Han to hunt soul rings and waved to Ling Yuan:
"Elder Ling Yuan, I leave it to you, go and get things done!"
Ling Yuan was eager for this and quickly nodded to accept the order.
She pulled Ye Han up and left, as if she was afraid that Bibi Dong would suddenly regret it.
Ye Han was also glad that Ling Yuan would definitely agree to take him to hunt for a two-thousand-year-old soul ring.
If Bibi Dong took him to hunt for soul rings, she would definitely follow that bullshit theory!
"Bibi Dong, I will prove with my actions that your sweetheart Yu Dashi's bullshit theory is wrong! Wait!"
Before Ye Han followed Ling Yuan away, he looked at Bibi Dong jokingly and made a secret decision in his heart.
I don't know what she will do when she sees that the first soul ring he hunted is two thousand years old? Will she question Yu Dashi's firm belief in the theory, or will she continue to believe it without thinking?
Just thinking about it makes one look forward to it!

"Xiao Han, are you still determined to hunt for the soul ring of a two-thousand-year-old soul beast?"
After walking away, Ling Yuan turned her head and stared at Ye Han, asking seriously.
"Yeah, sister Ling Yuan will support me, right~"
Ye Han pulled Ling Yuan's jade hand and shook it coquettishly, his eyes full of hope.
Whether the second test of the Dragon God can go smoothly depends on Ling Yuan's thoughts!
"Okay, I support you. Now I will take you to find a suitable soul beast~"
Ling Yuan picked up Ye Han with love and set off into the depths.
She firmly believed in this little guy, and she knew he could do it!
However, just before they walked far, some traces in front of her attracted Ling Yuan's attention.
"Is this... the trace of the Dark Thunder Dragon's activities?"
"From the footprints, it is about two thousand years old!"
"Dual-attribute dragons are extremely rare. This soul beast is very suitable for you!"
Ye Han was delighted and said quickly:
"Then let's chase it!"
Ling Yuan nodded and followed the trail.
Not long after, the two caught up and saw its figure.
The Dark Thunder Dragon was dark all over, with huge wings on its back. The whole body was covered with dark lightning currents, and it swam like a lightning snake—very powerful and domineering.
However, it seemed to have been severely injured at this time, and collapsed at the bottom of a big tree, dying!
"It looks like it was seriously injured in a battle with other soul masters or soul beasts."
"We got a great bargain for nothing. Let's kill it and absorb its soul ring."
Ling Yuan chuckled, and then her beautiful eyes flashed brightly as she took out a dagger.
Ye Han took the dagger and walked over, excitedly ready to kill it.
But at this moment, a stern shout suddenly came:
"Stop!!!"
The voice was wrapped in rolling soul power and suddenly shook the dagger in Ye Han's hand away.
Ye Han and Ling Yuan looked in the direction of the voice, only to see an old man in a green robe walking slowly.
Behind this middle-aged man, there were two people—a man and a woman.
