Douluo Dalu: The Unrivaled Panlong Zhentian

Chapter 138: Sunset Forest, Seven Phosphorus Flowers
In the history of Douluo Continent, the secrets of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire that are recorded in books are like distant mountains in the morning mist, hazy and mysterious, and have never been clearly outlined by the writings of history.

There are too many uncertainties as to why this happened.

But Qiangu Tianzong could find information about Sunset Forest from those books.

The Sunset Forest still exists today.

At that time, the Sunset Forest was still a large soul beast forest, with many ten thousand year old soul beasts.

Ever since the Tiandou Empire split into the Douling Empire and the Tianhun Empire thousands of years ago, many things originally within the Tiandou Empire have been divided.

The Sunset Forest, which was originally located in the northeast of the Tiandou Empire, also fell into the territory of the Tianhun Empire.

Although the Tiandou Empire was originally an empire, there were many principalities within the empire. Although these principalities seemed to be part of the strength of the Tiandou Empire.

But in fact, these principalities have weakened the strength of the Tiandou Empire in some ways.

Now, although the Tiandou Empire is divided into the Tianhun Empire and the Douling Empire, these principalities are gradually disappearing.

What replaced these duchies were noble lords with real power and territories.

It is difficult to comment on whether it is good or bad.

The establishment of the Tianhun Empire and the Douling Empire means that the intensity of the war has increased.

The original struggle between the Tiandou Empire and the Xingluo Empire gradually evolved into a three-kingdom conflict.

The Sunset Forest was reduced in size due to the constant wars.

Qiangu Tianzong slowly searched its range with the help of ancient books. It took more than a year for Qiangu Tianzong to slowly travel from the Douling Empire to the Tianhun Empire.

At this moment, he was holding a map in his hand and slowly narrowing the search area. The map was bought by Qiangu Tianzong from the Douling Empire.

The royal family of the Douling Empire is also a descendant of the royal family of the Tiandou Empire, so there are still maps of the imperial territory that originally belonged to the Tiandou Empire.

To this day, the Sunset Forest is still the habitat of soul beasts.

The Sunset Forest is close to the north and the temperature is relatively low. Going further north, you will reach the Far North.

"I didn't expect there would be so many soul beasts here." The closer they got to the Sunset Forest, the more Long Wan'er could sense the familiar aura of soul beasts.

However, these soul beasts were so weak that they did not even need to release their own aura. They would have already fled, let alone actively attack.

"They are just ten-year-old soul beasts. This place is really barren!" She said with a frown.

"You can't compare this place with your Great Star Forest."

"I think you should know that the Star Dou Great Forest is the premier gathering place for soul beasts in the entire continent."

"The core area where you have been for many years, the Great Dangerous Land, the Far North Core Circle of the Far North Land, and three other extremely dangerous places are collectively known as the Five Forbidden Areas of the Human World."

Indeed, it is a bit of a stretch to compare the Sunset Forest with the Star Forest. The very mention of the Star Forest is enough to awe countless soul masters. It is not only the largest soul beast settlement in the entire continent, but also a paradise in the soul beast world. It is filled with powerful beings, a wide variety of species, and a complex ecology that is not found in ordinary places.

The fierce place at the core is as frightening as the gate to hell. Even the top Title Douluo would think twice before entering. It is the last pure land for soul beasts and the trial field that soul masters dream of. Every fallen leaf and every roar of the beasts seem to be telling the cruel law of survival and struggle.

The core circle of the Far North is in harmony with the Great Dangerous Land of the Star Forest. Together, they are listed among the five forbidden areas of the world, becoming the most mysterious and dangerous places on the continent. Each of these five forbidden areas hides a power that can subvert the world. They are forbidden areas in the mouths of soul masters and are the endless yearning of explorers.

Although the Sunset Forest has its own unique features, it still seems much smaller in front of these behemoths. It is more like a pearl on the continent. Although it is not as dazzling as the stars, it also emits its own light, attracting those soul masters who are brave enough to explore and seek breakthroughs to come and seek opportunities.

"But are you sure you want to follow me?"

"I'm going there to hunt soul beasts!" Qiangu Tianzong glanced at Long Wan'er.

"Hmph!" Although Long Wan'er was unhappy, she didn't say anything else.

With the memory of Qiangu Tianzong, her mind is more mature than before. So she is now open-minded about many things. But as a soul beast, she inevitably has some emotional changes.

……

"Is this the place you're looking for?" Long Wan'er's voice was filled with uncertainty. She stood side by side with her companions high above the sunset forest, her eyes as sharp as torches, penetrating the sparse canopy and reaching that unusual place. Her brows were furrowed, and her eyes were filled with both doubt and vigilance, as if she had already sensed the extraordinary things ahead.

As the two focused their sights, a colorful poisonous miasma gradually appeared before their eyes. It was as gorgeous as a rainbow, but it contained deadly danger. This colorful poisonous miasma swayed gently in the breeze, and each wisp exuded a palpitating breath, as if it was the most ruthless warning from nature, preventing anyone from entering without permission.

"It's actually a colorful poisonous miasma!" Long Wan'er's voice was filled with surprise and curiosity. She knew that such a scene was not accidental, but the result of a long-term effect of some powerful force or special environment. She couldn't help but feel a strong desire to explore and uncover the secrets behind this poisonous miasma.

"What secrets are there here?" She turned to look at Qiangu Tianzong beside her, her eyes flashing with expectation and inquiry.

"Long Wan'er, let me teach you a lesson: learn more, watch more, and talk less."

"No one will spoil you outside the Star Forest."

"you!!!"

Qiangu Tianzong ignored Long Wan'er and flew forward for a distance on its own until it could face the colorful poisonous miasma most directly.

"The source of cholera is the poisonous gas further behind!"

"Rich forest, purification!" Qiangu Tianzong's second martial soul emerged.

Numerous and strong Jianmu Xuan roots continued to emerge from the ground.

Generally speaking, if miasma encounters a plant of wood attribute, it will certainly be corroded and decayed by the miasma. However, it is different for Jianmu Xuangen, who is a master of the universe. Wherever Jianmu Xuangen passes, the miasma will retreat as if it has encountered a natural enemy. The miasma that fails to retreat in time will be purified by Jianmu Xuangen's pure life force.

The branches and leaves of the Jianmu Xuangen swayed gently, emitting a faint green light, which formed a sharp contrast with the colorful poisonous miasma. Each Jianmu Xuangen was like a small purifier, constantly absorbing toxins from the poisonous miasma and converting them into nutrients that were beneficial to the surrounding environment.

As Jianmu Xuangen continued to emerge and spread, the surrounding poisonous miasma began to gradually dissipate, revealing a scene that had been previously covered up.

Long Wan'er was shocked when she saw this. She had seen Qiangu Tianzong's martial soul before, but she never expected that his martial soul was not afraid of the miasma and could even fight back against it.

"What kind of ability is this?" Long Wan'er couldn't help but ask.

Qiangu Tianzong did not look back, but said calmly: "It seems that you don't know much about my memory!"

"The Star God of Plenty, the Mysterious Root of Jianmu. How can the items belonging to the Star God of Plenty be ordinary things?"

Qiangu Tianzong: "The Medicine King is compassionate, and the Jian tree grows. Those who plant it are of one mind, and together they ascend to paradise."

After hearing these words from the immortal, Long Wan'er's mind suddenly fell into a period of confused memories.

……

The Thousand-armed Medicine King said: "Birth, old age, sickness and suffering all lead to death. The suffering of the living is suffering because it has a limit. The suffering of the old is suffering because it is inevitable. The suffering of the sick is suffering because death is imminent. Therefore, birth, old age, sickness and suffering refer to death. From death comes the root of suffering."

Suddenly he asked the envoy to put his palms together and said, "All sentient beings have a day of extinction and a day of reincarnation. How can we end the suffering of birth, aging, sickness and pain?"

The Thousand-armed King of Mercy told his messenger, "Those living beings are confined to their bodies, like prisoners in a cage, suffering torture. I will now plant the sacred tree of eternal life, which will liberate those living beings, so that they will have endless life, will not grow old, will be reborn after death, and will be free from all troubles."

At that time, he suddenly made his servant think: "The Medicine King is merciful, and the Jian tree has grown. Those who cultivate it are of one mind, and they will all ascend to the Pure Land together." "The Medicine King is merciful, and the Jian tree has grown. Those who cultivate it are of one mind, and they will all ascend to the Pure Land together."

At that time, 99,999 people who were cultivating the trees said in unison: "The Medicine King's compassion has made the Jian tree grow. The cultivators are of one mind and will all ascend to the Pure Land together."

When these words were spoken, all 99,999 people who had planted the seeds were freed from the sufferings of birth, aging, sickness and death.

……

"Star God~Abundance~" Long Wan'er murmured.

"What did you say?" Qiangu Tianzong asked.

The Jianmu martial spirit, which has been endowed with eternal talents, is truly blessed by the God of Fertility. The reason behind this cannot be explained in too much detail.

Moreover, Qiangu Tianzong did not know that when his Jianmu martial soul came into contact with Long Wan'er's Eye of Destiny, he not only obtained part of the destiny authority of the Douluo Continent, but also exchanged the memories of both parties.

In addition, the abundant power in the Jianmu martial soul also affected Long Wan'er. This invisible power gradually influenced Long Wan'er's thoughts.

Seeing that Long Wan'er did not respond, he shook his head and took another step forward. All the poisonous miasma along the way was purified by Jianmu Xuangen.

After walking a few miles, they saw a different world. The colorful poisonous miasma was much less, and it was replaced by a stunning green.

The emerald green sheen is like soft jade, gently covering this vast land. Each emerald green plant is arranged in a seemingly random yet orderly manner. Together, they weave into a huge green carpet, spreading across the heart of the Sunset Forest.

A light green mist rises slowly from among the plants, like the mist in the morning light, soft and mysterious, yet carrying a dangerous aura that cannot be ignored.

Qiangu Tianzong's brows were tightly furrowed, his eyes were deep and sharp, as if he could penetrate all appearances and see directly into the essence of these green plants.

He knew that the greenery before him was more deadly than the colorful poisonous miasma. Each of these plants contained a terrifying poison and was the most cunning killer in nature.

These green plants are not tall, they crawl on the ground in a humble manner, about half a meter high, but it is this low posture that contains endless threats. The leaves of each plant have a strange shape, they are a bit like human hands, but with a few more fingers, some have seven fingers, and some even have nine fingers, with different shapes, weird and terrifying.

At the top of these leaves, large emerald green flowers bloomed proudly. Their petals were thick and full, and the stamens continuously emitted a faint emerald green mist. The mist slowly condensed in the air and eventually merged with the surrounding colorful poisonous miasma, making the toxicity of this area more complex and changeable.

"The Seven Deadly Phosphorus Flowers!" Qiangu Tianzong's voice was deep and powerful. He recognized the identity of this plant. This was a notorious poisonous grass on the continent. Its toxicity was strong enough to scare any living creature. Not only were there a large number of them, but each one had the characteristics of a soul beast, able to sense changes in the surrounding environment and respond accordingly.

"What is this? There are so many! But I can feel that they are also soul beasts!" Long Wan'er's voice was filled with surprise and shock. She had never seen such a strange and powerful plant soul beast. She clung to Qiangu Tianzong, fearing that she would accidentally touch these deadly poisonous plants.

"According to records, the Seven Absolutes of Green Phosphorus Flowers are one of the most poisonous plants on this continent." Qiangu Tianzong explained, "They are extremely poisonous. Once infected, even a powerful soul master will not be spared. The body will be corroded in a very short time, and the process will be extremely painful and torturous."

As his words fell, the air around them seemed to freeze, and an indescribable sense of oppression enveloped the hearts of the two. They knew that if they wanted to survive in this dangerous area, they had to remain vigilant and cautious at all times.

"Oh! So what if they are poisonous? I want to see how long they can last in front of my flames."

Upon hearing this, Qiangu Tianzong naturally took a step back and watched the show.

Although the Green Phosphorus Seven Wonders Flower is not afraid of fire, Qiangu Tianzong also wants to see whether the Green Phosphorus Seven Wonders Flower can still be immune to this extreme flame.

Boom~
Flames emerged from Long Wan'er's body.

As the flames appeared, the surrounding air instantly became extremely hot, and even the space seemed to be distorted by the high temperature. The flames surrounded Long Wan'er, forming a gorgeous ring of fire, which made her look like a phoenix descending to the mortal world.

Facing this sudden flame, the Seven Absolutes of Green Phosphorus flowers seemed to feel an unprecedented threat. They began to sway, and the colors on their petals became brighter, as if to warn the invaders. However, Long Wan'er did not retreat. She had a firm look in her eyes, and with a gentle wave of her hands, the Phoenix Nirvana Flame surged towards the poisonous grass like a tide.

When the flames and poisonous grasses met, a series of fierce collisions broke out instantly. The seven unique flowers of the green phosphorus released strong toxins to try to resist the invasion of the flames. But this flame was like their nemesis. Not only was it not corroded by the toxins, but it burned even more fiercely.

Wherever the flames passed, poisonous weeds withered and the toxins quickly evaporated under the high temperature of the flames, turning into nothingness.

"Extreme flames are indeed the nemesis of most plants. Even the Jade Phosphorus Seven Absolutes Flower, which has the fire-immunity attribute, cannot avoid it."

"If it weren't for the abundant power, my Jianmu martial spirit would not be able to avoid the invasion of this extreme flame."
