Douluo's transformation from becoming stronger starts with eating soul beast meat

In the Boknuo Forest.

Quan Yi, clad in light armor and wearing the Fiery Sun Gauntlets, cautiously made his way through the forest.

Quan Yi's gaze constantly scanned his surroundings, wary of attacks from soul beasts.

Through two weeks of training, Quan Yi's vigilance had sharpened, and his five senses had become more acute. The wild environment seemed to be awakening the sensory abilities within Quan Yi's body.

A close look at Quan Yi's light armor revealed several black scorch marks on its surface.

These were traces of battles with soul beasts.

The Boknuo Forest was one of the many soul beast forests on the continent.

It wasn't large in scale, but due to the presence of an active volcano within, a large number of fire-attribute soul beasts inhabited the forest.

The age of the soul beasts within the forest was relatively low, but there were many different kinds of fire-attribute soul beasts. It was said that Su Ling'er obtained her first soul ring here.

This was Quan Yi's second week in the forest, and he was still searching for a suitable soul beast.

During this time, Quan Yi had encountered many fire-attribute soul beasts, but most of them were of low age, and the few that met the age requirement were not of the strength type.

"I've explored the outer areas of the forest pretty thoroughly. It seems I need to go deeper."

A soul beast over five hundred years old already possessed strength comparable to a Great Soul Master-level battle soul master. For a mere tenth-level Soul Scholar to even dream of hunting a soul beast single-handedly was simply a pipe dream.

But since Quan Yi had agreed to it, it meant he had confidence.

His greatest reliance was the Fiery Sun Gauntlets, which granted him fire immunity. The most threatening flames of fire-attribute soul beasts were completely ineffective against Quan Yi.

Relying on the Fiery Sun Gauntlets and Quan Yi's physical qualities, comparable to a twentieth-level Instrument Soul Master, Quan Yi could easily kill ordinary five-hundred-year soul beasts.

However, Quan Yi was not satisfied with ordinary soul beasts. Therefore, he needed to take some risks and choose to advance into the depths of the forest.

Behind Quan Yi, in a hidden location, Quan Yue and Su Ling'er were watching Quan Yi from afar.

"Husband, Xiao Yi is going deeper. Should we get closer?" Su Ling'er couldn't help but feel anxious when she saw Quan Yi heading into the depths of the forest.

"It's alright, this distance is just right. Don't worry, the soul beasts in this forest are generally of low age. With our strength, we can completely protect Xiao Yi. You're just letting your concern cloud your judgment."

Quan Yue saw Su Ling'er's anxious mood and patiently comforted her.

The two of them had been following Quan Yi for two weeks. During this time, Quan Yi had encountered attacks from soul beasts, but he had easily dispersed them all.

The two of them also had a further understanding of Quan Yi's strength. Quan Yi's physical strength was beyond imagination. Quan Yi hadn't even used his Gang Yu Jian, and was able to repel soul beasts with just his physical body.

But unexpectedly, the number of soul beasts in the soul beast forest was much lower than expected. Therefore, Quan Yi could only go deeper to obtain a soul ring. This would also lead to an increase in Quan Yi's level of danger.

When Su Ling'er was young, soul beasts were still everywhere in the forest. It could be seen that the disadvantages of excessive hunting of soul beasts had already begun to show.

Quan Yi pressed his hands against his chest, and with a flash of white light, a shield and spear appeared in his hands.

These were weapons that Quan Yi had specifically brought from the basement. Entering the interior was more dangerous, and Quan Yi did not dare to underestimate it. With weapons, Quan Yi could save more soul power, greatly increasing his safety.

The shield and spear were still a bit large for Quan Yi, but Quan Yi was able to pick them up easily, without a hint of strain.

And these weapons were taken from the necklace at Quan Yi's chest.

The necklace was called the Heart of the Fiery Sun and was Su Ling'er's ornament. More importantly, it was a very rare storage soul tool. Because its shape resembled a burning sun, it was called the Heart of the Fiery Sun.

For this test, Su Ling'er lent this precious soul tool to Quan Yi. Thanks to the soul tool, Quan Yi no longer had to carry heavy luggage and could carry enough supplies to survive for two months.

Inside, apart from these two weapons, were all soul beast jerky and water pouches.

Quan Yi was following the stream, constantly advancing towards the higher parts of the forest. Although he had no experience, Quan Yi also knew that soul beasts needed to drink water.

As long as he followed the stream, the probability of Quan Yi encountering a soul beast would greatly increase.

After walking for an hour or two, Quan Yi discovered a huge figure about five hundred meters ahead.

Quan Yi quietly walked behind a tree to the side, hiding his figure. He carefully observed from behind the tree. Although it was a bit far, the soul beast's massive size allowed Quan Yi to easily recognize it.

Moreover, more importantly, the rhinoceros horn of this Explosive Rhino had five clearly visible ring patterns. This was the basis for judging the Explosive Rhino's age.

As the age increased, its rhinoceros horn would also lengthen, and every hundred years, a red ring would condense on the rhinoceros horn.

This was because the Explosive Rhino's rhinoceros horn was the part that stored soul power, and it was also its strongest weapon.

The Explosive Rhino had poor eyesight and moved somewhat clumsily, but its strength was very great, and if its rhinoceros horn touched the body, the fire-attribute soul power contained within would flow into the enemy's body and cause an explosion inside.

This was also a skill developed to prevent itself from being harmed. Although the Explosive Rhino gave the impression of being gentle and honest, it was unexpected that it would have such a sinister soul skill.

Quan Yi's heart was very excited at this time, but he forcibly calmed himself down.

The closer it got to the end, the more he had to be calm. Facing such a powerful soul beast, Quan Yi had to be careful, careful, and careful again.

Quan Yi constantly thought about corresponding methods in his mind, but soon, Quan Yi gave up thinking.

Quan Yi seemed to have understood something, suddenly stood up, and walked straight towards the Explosive Rhino. And there was no sign of hiding at all.

When he was about two hundred meters away, the Explosive Rhino, which was drinking water, suddenly noticed Quan Yi's approach and suddenly raised its head to look at Quan Yi.

He saw Quan Yi fully armed, wearing light armor, holding a shield and spear in each hand, his eyes very firm, staring at the Explosive Rhino, just like a hero in ancient Greek mythology, coming alone to challenge it.

The difference in size between the two was very large. The Explosive Rhino seemed to be aware of the enemy's existence, staring at Quan Yi, slowly turning its body to face Quan Yi head-on.

Quan Yi's parents, who were watching Quan Yi from behind, were also shocked at this time. Su Ling'er even summoned her martial soul and was about to rush out, but was immediately stopped by Quan Yue next to her.

"What are you doing?"

"Wait, Quan Yi took the initiative to go there, maybe he has his own plan. If you go out at this time, wouldn't you completely ruin this test?"

"What time is it? You're still thinking about the test, this is an Explosive Rhino!" Su Ling'er was shocked.

Quan Yue was also frightened into a cold sweat. He didn't expect Quan Yi, who had always been calm and composed, to make such a reckless and impulsive move.

But, relying on his strong composure, Quan Yue barely maintained a trace of rationality.
