Chapter 26 The Stars Are Not as Beautiful as You

"A dragon-shaped soul beast, preferably ten thousand years old."

Gu Yi pretended to be thinking and spoke calmly.

After all, he already possesses a divinely bestowed soul ring, so he can simply find a good opportunity to slip away later.

“A ten-thousand-year-old dragon-shaped soul beast, I think it must be like that, but such soul beasts are not easy to find. Not only are they powerful, but their numbers are also extremely rare,” Zhao Wuji said, frowning.

The Star Dou Forest is too vast, and finding this specific soul beast would be quite difficult and would likely take a lot of time.

Gu Yi naturally knew the difficulties involved, so before Zhao Wuji could think too much, he pretended to be surprised and looked at Tang San beside him, saying, "Hmm! It seems that the number of people who need to obtain a spirit ring will have to increase by one more."

Hearing this, Zhao Wuji turned to look at Tang San, who was cultivating nearby, and Tang San opened his eyes at that moment.

"Tang San, you've broken through to level 30?" Zhao Wuji asked tentatively.

"Yes, Teacher Zhao, it seems I'll be staying in this forest for a while longer." Tang San nodded in response, a hint of joy on his face.

Zhao Wuji was also helpless. Good heavens, all the breakthroughs happened at the same time, and for no reason, his workload had quadrupled.

However, while feeling helpless, he was also happy, since he was the teacher of these little monsters.

"Hey~ Oscar, you've finally finished absorbing your spirit rings! Quick, tell us, what's your third spirit skill?"

Suddenly, Ma Hongjun's excited exclamation rang in everyone's ears.

In an instant, everyone gathered around out of curiosity, which put Oscar in a difficult position.

The incantation for this soul skill was simply too embarrassing. He felt incredibly awkward doing it in front of so many people, especially with girls present.

"Forget it, you guys shouldn't be curious anymore. You'll find out eventually," Oscar said, nudging Ma Hongjun, who was closest to him, with a hint of embarrassment.

"Tch~ Could it be that he obtained a really trash soul skill and doesn't want to admit it or be embarrassed?" Ma Hongjun curled his lip and said disdainfully.

Upon hearing this, Oscar immediately became agitated. His face flushed red, and he angrily retorted, "Hmph! You know nothing! When I use this soul skill, it will absolutely blow your mind!"

Without further ado, he gathered his soul power in his hands and loudly chanted his unique soul incantation: "I have a mushroom sausage!"

The next moment, a strangely shaped sausage appeared in his hand. Its overall appearance was similar to that of a recovery sausage, but it had an umbrella-shaped mushroom head at the top.

"Hahahahaha!"

The moment he finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter. This soul curse was really too funny, and even Zhao Wuji was amused.

This made Oscar feel quite ashamed, but he still loudly proclaimed the function of the soul skill.

"Stop laughing! My mushroom sausage can fly! And it can fly at the speed of a crested serpent for one minute!"

Upon hearing this, everyone except Gu Yi was stunned; they could hardly believe their ears.

"What did you just say? A soul skill that assists in flight?"

"Or fly at the speed of a crested serpent for one minute?"

"

Seeing their reaction, Oscar's vanity was completely satisfied, and he nodded proudly.

"That's right! It's exactly what you just heard."

"Great! Oscar, from now on, your sausage spirit is considered top-tier among support spirits!" Zhao Wuji said happily.

There are examples of assisting Soul Masters to gain the ability to fly, but those are only possible after becoming a Soul Emperor. Oscar's actions have truly exceeded their expectations.

"Alright! Let's keep up the good work. First, let's help Tang San get his spirit ring, and then we'll take care of that kid Gu Yi."

With that, the group embarked on their search for soul beasts once more, advancing deeper into the Star Dou Great Forest, but still without any success.

This situation continued into the evening; despite a hard day's work, nothing was accomplished.

They found an open space, set up their tent, and prepared to rest.

But Gu Yi sat alone by the campfire, gazing at the distant forest. His melancholy demeanor, combined with the starlight, made him appear exceptionally lonely.

"It should be here soon, right?" Gu Yi muttered to himself.

According to the original text, it was on this night that the Titan Ape successfully sensed Xiao Wu's presence and launched a surprise attack on their camp.

Gu Yi hadn't slept because he was waiting for it to arrive so he could start his 'performance'.

"What are you looking at?"

Suddenly, Zhu Zhuqing came out of the tent and sat down next to Gu Yi, asking curiously.

"I'm looking at the starry sky in this forest, trying to see which is more beautiful, it or you," Gu Yi joked with a smile.

"And what was the result?" Zhu Zhuqing asked calmly.

She seemed to have had enough of Gu Yi's sweet talk and was now almost immune to it.

“I find that you are beautiful, but you are even more beautiful under the starry sky,” Gu Yi replied softly.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing smiled and rested her head on Gu Yi's shoulder, quietly watching the starry night sky with him.

It must be said that the night sky is beautiful. Every star is as dazzling as a diamond, and shooting stars occasionally streak across the sky, making it a truly breathtaking sight.

"If only things could stay like this forever," Zhu Zhuqing whispered in Gu Yi's ear.

She enjoyed this moment of peace; at least for this moment, she felt at ease.

When Gu Yi agreed to the duel today, her heart was pounding uncontrollably. She was worried that Gu Yi would get hurt, and even more worried that Gu Yi would leave her because of it.

She hated that feeling; all she wanted was the present moment, every single second with Gu Yi by her side.

As if sensing Zhu Zhuqing's current mood, Gu Yi put his right arm around her waist and whispered, "Don't worry, I won't leave. Even if my body is gone, my heart will remain."

As he spoke, Gu Yi chuckled and teased, "Besides, I'm so strong that even the Soul Emperor can't do anything to me, so what do you need to worry about?"

Zhu Zhuqing was amused by him and felt a sweet warmth in her heart.

The two were so engrossed in their own intimacy that they didn't notice a head peeking out from each of the two tents, watching them.

"Ugh! How disgusting," Ning Rongrong thought to herself.

After saying that, she couldn't bear to watch any longer and went back into the tent.

On the other hand, Dai Mubai's eyes were filled with murderous intent. His face was contorted with rage, and he had already made up his mind that he must make his move tomorrow!

But suddenly, a loud bang rang out not far from the camp, drawing attention in the quiet night sky.

Immediately, everyone woke up at the same time. Zhao Wuji frowned deeply and rushed out of the tent to block Gu Yi's way.

Just a moment ago, he keenly sensed a terrifying aura, the oppressive feeling brought by absolute power.

"Get up, all of you!" Zhao Wuji roared behind him, then released his martial spirit.

Upon hearing his voice, everyone rushed out of the tent. They stood nervously behind Zhao Wuji, looking towards the forest not far away.

"boom!"

Another giant tree crashed down, and then a chimpanzee as big as a small mountain emerged from it. It was on all fours, seven meters tall at the shoulder, and exuded a terrifying aura.

"This...this is? The Titan Ape, the King of the Forest!"

Chapter 27 The Movie King Makes His Debut

Zhao Wuji stared in disbelief at the figure that appeared before him, his heart sinking into an ice cellar, his mind going completely blank for a moment.

He didn't understand why this king of the forest would come to the outskirts. Did we have something here that could attract it?

But now there wasn't much time left for him to think about this problem. With the Titan Ape getting closer and closer, Zhao Wuji had no choice but to hurriedly give the order.

"Go! All of you go! Gu Yi! Take them with you! Make sure they are safe!" Zhao Wuji practically roared as he ordered Gu Yi, who was standing to the side.

At the same time, he took a few steps forward towards the Titan Ape, looking nervously at the king before him, and respectfully said, "Your Majesty, King of the Forest, we have no intention of offending you. If this is your territory, we are willing to leave immediately."

The Titan Ape was extremely intelligent. Knowing that it could understand human speech, Zhao Wuji tried to communicate with it.

But the other party ignored him and took another step forward. Although it was only one step, it brought them very close to the crowd.

At this moment, Zhao Wuji was extremely flustered. What should he do? Facing an opponent of this caliber, he himself was having trouble even protecting himself, let alone protecting these students as they retreated.

The instinct for survival kept urging his legs, but he knew he could not retreat an inch. Behind him were the hopes of the Soul Master world, his students!

Thinking of this, Zhao Wuji gritted his teeth, and all four of his spirit rings lit up at the same time. Gravity enhancement and gravity compression controlled the Titan Giant Ape's movements simultaneously. With his Immovable King Body protecting him, he pushed off with both feet and used the Mighty Vajra Palm to strike the Titan Giant Ape.

He made up his mind that even if it meant his death, he would buy these students time to escape!

But why would Gu Yi leave? He knew perfectly well that the Titan Giant Ape, this "actor," was only there to see Xiao Wu and catch up with her. As long as they weren't provoked, it wouldn't bother killing them.

Besides, he had been waiting for this moment for a long time; he could finally act alongside this 'Best Actor'!

Gu Yi put on a resolute expression, turned to the others, and said, "You all go first! I'm staying to help Teacher Zhao!"

After saying that, the Bone Dragon Martial Soul instantly appeared behind him, and he charged towards the Titan Giant Ape without looking back!

At that moment, how magnificent he appeared in everyone's eyes! Just like Zhao Wuji at that moment.

"I'm staying too! You all go!"

Suddenly, Dai Mubai also spoke up.

He immediately unleashed the White Tiger Vajra Transformation and the White Tiger Protective Barrier, and charged forward.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! With the Titan Ape around, Gu Yi is doomed!

In addition, the beast-attracting powder on his body will surely draw all its attention to Gu Yi. This will not only ensure Gu Yi's death, but also buy Zhao Wuji and himself time to escape.

Perfect! Dai Mubai was truly impressed with his own brilliant mind!

But before he could be happy for long, another figure rushed in front of him—it was Zhu Zhuqing!

Gu Yi didn't leave, so why would she abandon him and leave?

Since Gu Yi wants to fight, then she will go with him!

"The seven treasures are named: First, strength! Second, speed!"

Suddenly, in

Everyone present received a 30% boost to their attributes, including Zhao Wuji, whose soul power instantly reached level eighty-something.

Since none of them were leaving, Ning Rongrong didn't plan to leave either. If she left now, wouldn't she seem inferior to them?

I've tried my best to control my temper these past few days, hoping to gradually integrate into the team. If something goes wrong now, wouldn't all my patience have been for nothing?
