After Jiang Wanyu and the others packed up simply, they arrived at the entrance of the Exotic Beast Academy.
"We won't be taking a carriage this time. We will rush to the Star Dou Great Forest by galloping a thousand miles."
"This is mainly to train us to maintain and change formations. After arriving at the Star Dou Great Forest, we will adopt a conservative formation and advance steadily."
Jiang Wanyu briefly explained the situation and purpose, and then directly arranged the formation.
"After entering the wild, the attack will be in a formation of one, three, three, two."
"Wu Feng is in front of the team, acting as an air unit and providing the team with first-hand intelligence!"
"Zhu Zhuqing, Yan Yue, and Dugu Yan are the second echelon, and they will be at the front of the team to provide immediate support!"
"Tie Chenyuan and Wan Chenhao will protect Ye Lingling in the middle. Meng Yiran and I will be the rear guard to ensure that no one is left behind and that we can launch a counterattack immediately."
"Now, let's head to the Star Dou Great Forest and set off!"
After that, the team members began to march in formation without saying a word.
Barak City is not far from the Star Dou Great Forest, it can even be said to be very close, so in less than half a day, they arrived at a soul hunting town before dusk.
Further ahead is the Star Dou Great Forest, which is the last supply point. So after a brief rest, everyone entered the Star Dou Great Forest before dawn the next day.
When we entered the Star Dou Great Forest, it was just dawn.
"Everyone, pay close attention and try to avoid the spirit beasts. The direction of advance is northwest."
"Advance according to the established formation, Wufeng. Watch out for explosive bees appearing in the sky. Report to me if you find any."
Everyone nodded to show that they understood.
Dugu Bo watched all this quietly. Since he absorbed the herbs given by Jiang Wanyu two days ago, his condition has improved significantly.
Not only has the control over toxins in the body improved, but due to years of soul power accumulation and the effects of the magic grass, the soul power level has been raised to level ninety-four in one go!
Moreover, the quality of the martial soul has also been greatly improved, strengthening oneself in all aspects!
Now Dugu Bo feels that he is terribly strong. As long as there is no hundred thousand year soul beast, he can easily protect Jiang Wanyu and his group!
Along the way, they encountered attacks from many soul beasts, some of which were hundreds to thousands of years old. Jiang Wanyu basically played a supporting role, leaving the tasks to the team members, and they gradually became proficient in cooperating.
Halfway through the journey, Wu Feng's voice rang out again, but this time it was not an attack by a soul beast.
"Boss, there are five Exploding Bees about three hundred meters to your left!"
"Don't bother that Exploding Bee, let's follow it!"
After receiving the information, Jiang Wanyu gave the order directly and followed carefully.
After arriving here, Jiang Wanyu and his friends saw the five explosive bees hunting a thousand-year-old windchime deer.
"This Exploding Bee looks like an ordinary batch-produced Exploding Bee, but its head is only slightly smaller than a basin of water. The Exploding Bee Queen must have cultivated for at least ten thousand years!"
After Jiang Wanyu found out, he didn't think the age limit was too high, but rather that it was just right!
At this time, an explosive bee pounced on the face of the wind chime deer and exploded directly. The explosion swallowed the wind chime deer's head. This is the hunting method of the explosive bee. All explosive bees are consumables of the explosive bee queen!
The remaining four explosive bees took away the body of the wind chime deer, probably to transport it to the mother.
After Wu Feng took the lead and followed, Jiang Wanyu fell behind the team.
"Old Poison, this Exploding Queen Bee should be a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast. Please help me capture it later. I will explain the reason later."
"I see."
Dugu Bo did not ask why Jiang Wanyu said that. He just needed to do it. He would know the answer soon.
When Jiang Wanyu caught up, he found that the team members were waiting for him.
There is a huge mountain in front, and at the bottom of the mountain there is a dark cave, with explosive bees coming in and out.
"Boss, the Exploding Queen Bee you mentioned should be in the cave ahead. How about we brothers join forces to capture it together?"
When Wan Chenhao saw Jiang Wanyu coming, he leaned over and spoke with a smile.
"No need. The Exploding Queen Bee is not something you can capture for the time being. I will let Senior Dugu Bo take action. You can help me drive away the soul beasts around here."
"Try not to stay too far away, and try not to seriously injure soul beasts if you encounter them, unless they are some evil soul beasts."
Jiang Wanyu directly rejected Wan Chenhao, and then informed the other members of the team to go for actual combat.
When they heard that Dugu Bo was going to take action, they gave up the idea of doing so. Since His Majesty Dugu Bo still needed to take action, they had better not be so stubborn.
So they left directly, ready to cause trouble for the nearby soul beasts.
After they walked away, Dugu Bo came to Jiang Wanyu.
"You know this is a ten thousand year old soul beast, why did you choose it?"
"Old Poison, can you take a closer look at my spirit ring?"
Jiang Wanyu summoned his martial soul, took out the Ice and Fire Mysterious Bow, and the three soul rings on his body vibrated rhythmically.
"Hmm? What happened to your spirit ring?"
Dugu Bo widened his eyes. He had hardly seen Jiang Wanyu's soul ring before, and even if he had seen it, he didn't care much. But now, after taking a closer look, he discovered a clue!
"Your spirit ring..."
Jiang Wanyu felt refreshed, smiled slightly, and removed his disguise. The colors of the three soul rings became deeper, yellow, purple, and purple, and the second ring even turned purple!
"Now you understand what I mean?"
Jiang Wanyu smiled faintly. The third soul ring was almost purple and black, making Dugu Bo feel that he was being played...
So, things became simple next. As soon as Dugu Bo made a move, all the explosive bees died without having time to self-destruct.
Dugu Bo walked into the cave and took out a huge explosive bee with a particularly swollen abdomen. He thought it was the queen explosive bee.
"Brat, let me tell you first, this soul beast is almost 30,000 years old. Can you really withstand the combined mental and physical impact? How about I find you a new one?"
Dugu Bo said this with great concern. He really didn't want to see Jiang Wanyu take risks.
"Trust me, Old Poison. The bigger the waves, the more expensive the fish. The greater the adventure, the greater the reward. And I'm sure I can absorb it!"
Jiang Wanyu has now absorbed three strains for physical training and one strain for improving mental strength. He is still quite confident in defeating a soul beast that is more than 20,000 years old!
"Well, then, you absorb it here, and I will protect you. If necessary, I will interrupt you!"
Dugu Bo looked serious and said that he was not taking things lightly!
"I see."
Jiang Wanyu took a deep breath and immediately killed the Exploding Bee Queen. Looking at the condensed black soul ring, he sat cross-legged and began to absorb it!
