Chapter 157 - Returning to Sunset Forest

That also meant that Quan Yi's spiritual power had officially entered the Soul Saint level.

Through cultivation, Quan Yi was now able to control the changes in Soul Power as easily as moving his own limbs.

During the cultivation process, it seemed that some kind of connection had been established between spiritual power and Soul Power, with faint signs of fusion.

From firmness to softness, from softness to firmness.

There was not a single obstruction in between.

Vaguely, Quan Yi seemed to understand the true meaning of this cultivation.

Exercising spiritual power was the goal, but perhaps the combination of spiritual power and Soul Power was the ultimate destination.

He ended his training.

Quan Yi went to the room where he stored Soul Beast Meat.

Inside the room, Quan Yi hung smoked meat in the air with some thin ropes.

But the spacious room only had about a thousand kilograms left.

"This Soul Beast Meat won't last for many days. In a few days, I'll have to go to the forest to hunt a new Soul Beast."

His body and digestive ability had become stronger, causing the consumption of Soul Beast Meat to increase.

Tens of thousands of kilograms of meat were almost completely consumed in just three months.

However, this also showed how terrifying Quan Yi's physical training was.

In the evening, the sun had just set.

Quan Yi, wearing light clothing and carrying a Blazing Sun Heart, set off for the Sunset Forest.

This was the first time he had entered the Soul Hunting Forest alone to hunt Soul Beasts.

He felt a little excited, but not afraid.

In addition to hunting Soul Beasts, he also wanted to test his strength through combat.

The Sunset Forest, full of dangers, was regarded by Quan Yi as a training ground.

As night fell, Taiyun Town did not fall silent, but instead became more active.

Taverns and commercial streets were crowded with people, releasing their emotions to their hearts' content.

Most of these people were Soul Splitters who lived on the edge, and the night time was one of the few moments when they could vent their emotions.

However, just as everyone was relaxing, Quan Yi resolutely walked out of the town and ran towards the Sunset Forest.

At the forest entrance.

Quan Yi carefully surveyed the surroundings, and after confirming that no one was around.

Martial Soul Summon.

The Blazing Sun Gauntlets appeared on Quan Yi's hands.

Quan Yi's Blazing Sun Gauntlets had undergone tremendous changes since he broke through to the Soul Ancestor level.

The overall shape andpatterns did not change much, only the size increased along with Quan Yi's figure.

Although the appearance had not changed, the Martial Soul faintly flowed with dark gold and dark red light.

The coldness of metal and the heat of flames were clearly distinct, but harmoniously unified on one Martial Soul.

These two auras were obviously dozens of times stronger than at the Soul Ancestor level.

Quan Yi's Blazing Sun Gauntlets, after absorbing the Soul Ring, had undergone a qualitative leap in hardness, weight, flame temperature, and flame control.

The initial weight of Quan Yi's single Gauntlet exceeded three hundred kilograms.

The weight was about ten times that of the Soul Ancestor level.

Only Quan Yi's physical fitness allowed him to swing a weight equal to that of two adult men with one hand.

And the initial flame temperature of the Gauntlets could easily melt Iron Essence, and the flame temperature under compression, just maintained for a few seconds, caused the moisture within a few kilometers around Quan Yi to evaporate rapidly, and the temperature also increased sharply.

To avoid attracting attention, Quan Yi immediately extinguished the flames and ended the experiment.

With such improvements, Quan Yi had the confidence to venture into the Sunset Forest alone.

The yellow Soul Ring behind Quan Yi flickered.

He activated his Second Soul Skill, Dark Flame Power.

Jet-black flames began to emerge from his hands.

Instantly, under the cover of the flames, Quan Yi's flame-covered hands disappeared into the night.

Immediately afterward, Quan Yi activated his right leg bone Soul Bone Skill.

Fire Spirit Body.

Quan Yi's entire body was gradually consumed by shadows.

Gradually, his entire body vanished from the spot.

This was why Quan Yi had deliberately chosen to delve deep into the dangerous Sunset Forest at night.

The conspicuous firelight, under the effect of the Dark Flame Power, instead became Quan Yi's best means of concealing himself.

Of course, even though the Dark Flame was black, it still emitted a faint glow.

If someone observed carefully, they could still detect the anomaly.

However, the night was not entirely dark; it had moonlight and starlight.

Under the cover of the moonlight, the Dark Flame could help Quan Yi blend naturally into the night.

Moreover, in the Fire Spirit Body state, Quan Yi could freely control the size and temperature of the flames.

With the blessing of both, Quan Yi could achieve an effect similar to invisibility.

Transformed into black flames, Quan Yi traversed rapidly through the forest at an astonishing speed.

Any obstacle was meaningless before the invisible flames.

At this moment, Quan Yi seemed to have become a transparent soul, soaring freely in the world.

In this state, even when Quan Yi approached wary hundred-year and thousand-year Soul Beasts, they did not notice him.

However, Quan Yi did not hunt these low-level Soul Beasts.

He controlled the flames and went directly into the depths of the forest.

Quan Yi's current flying speed was about two hundred kilometers per hour.

Without pursuing the explosion and high temperature of the flames, Quan Yi's Soul Power reserves could support him for twelve hours.

Half an hour later, Quan Yi officially entered the inner circle of the Sunset Forest.

Returning to the old place, Quan Yi's heart was completely different from the last time.

His heart had more caution and less ease.

In the inner circle, there was no shortage of high-level Soul Beasts living here.

And Quan Yi's goal was precisely the ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts among them.

Once in the inner circle of the forest, Quan Yi began to slow down and cautiously search for traces of Soul Beasts.

More than an hour had passed since the official search began.

However, Quan Yi's harvest was zero.

Under the night, not only Quan Yi, but also other ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts became more secretive.

Moreover, because they could not perceive Quan Yi's existence, they would not actively attack.

In the limited light, Quan Yi's vision was also limited, making it impossible to quickly find traces of Soul Beasts.

To this end, Quan Yi slowed down his flying speed, calmed down, and used his senses to search for the ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts hidden in the forest.

In the Fire Spirit Body state, Quan Yi could only use his hearing and vision among his five senses.

However, in the state of becoming a Fire-attribute, Quan Yi's ability to perceive energy fluctuations was strengthened.

Once he calmed down and focused on these three senses, Quan Yi seemed to have opened up a new perspective.

Like a holographic image, a distribution map of subtle elements appeared in Quan Yi's mind.

Among them, Quan Yi's perception range of the Fire-attribute was the farthest and clearest.

With the blessing of the Fire Spirit Body and the Blazing Sun Gauntlets, his perception of the Fire-attribute reached its peak.

This perception ability became more and more terrifying as Quan Yi's cultivation level improved.

In a forest with limited visibility, this method was undoubtedly more efficient.

Soul Beasts could hide their bodies, but they could not hide the strong elemental fluctuations.

Especially Fire-attribute Soul Beasts, under Quan Yi's powerful perception, would definitely have nowhere to hide.

Changing his method, Quan Yi's search efficiency greatly improved.

Within an hour, Quan Yi found several ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts.

However, some of them were insect-type Soul Beasts with little meat, and some were highly poisonous and inedible.

Just as Quan Yi was thinking unluckily and wanted to leave this area.

Quan Yi sensed an extremely pure and strong Fire-attribute fluctuation.
