Star Dou Forest
With seven people in the group, Gu Yi had disappeared when they entered. Even Tang San, who had the most developed perception ability among them, couldn't sense Gu Yi's whereabouts.
Gu Yi, hiding in the dark, glanced at the several people who were fully prepared. He wasn't reckless enough to let them train on their own.
This time, their lineup was much better compared to the original.
Oscar, who originally needed to hunt for spirit rings, had advanced to level thirty ahead of time. He could even create mushroom sausages that could allow peope to fly at extremely fast speeds. As long as they didn't encounter spirit beasts far beyond their level, they could escape relying on their flying abilities.
Ma Hongjun had also mastered the ability to fly in advance. His spirit skills were stronger than before, and he could even slightly control the Evil Fire.
Their overall combat power had increased significantly. In short, the Shrek Seven Devils at this stage were completely enhanced versions of themselves.
However, in secret, Gu Yi was pondering how to cultivate his physical body. In fact, with his current cultivation level, the strength of his physical body had long surpassed that of ordinary people. Ordinary martial arts couldn't help him advance physically.
Perhaps I've been wrong from the beginning?
Gu Yi squatted down and looked at the Blue Silver Grass on the ground, plucking it absentmindedly, with a pensive expression on his face. The physical body was just the physical body, what did it have to do with the soul? Spirit power and physique were two completely different paths of cultivation.
The more Gu Yi thought about it, the more excited he became, his face showing excitement. That's right, that's right, it must be like this. The direction was wrong from the beginning.
Countless inspirations continuously flowed into his mind, colliding and sparking, and these would eventually bear sweet fruit. This time, Gu Yi no longer used spirit power as the basis for strengthening his physical body.
Gu Yi spent the entire day pondering, with countless inspirations in his mind, but he couldn't put them into practice. It was like a novel where before writing, one felt endless ideas, but when it came to putting them on paper, it was difficult to take a step forward. Now he just lacked a starting point to let him in, and once he entered that door, the road ahead would be much easier.
"Bro, do you think Brother Yi is really ignoring us?" Ma Hongjun approached Oscar and asked. Among this group, he was closest to Oscar and their relationship was the best. They had grown up together. As for Dai Mubai, he could only be considered slightly closer than ordinary friends. After all, Dai Mubai would leave as soon as classes were over, and sometimes he couldn't even be found.
"Brother Yi's thoughts are unpredictable. Just perform well. I also want to learn his's spirit skills." Oscar believed that it wasn't just him who couldn't forget that move that summoned thunder. That scene was deeply imprinted in his mind like a knife.
Ma Hongjun looked around cautiously, seeing no one observing them, then whispered to Oscar, "Do you think Brother Yi has taken a fancy to Zhu Zhuqing?"
Oscar didn't expect Ma Hongjun to ask this question. For a moment, his face changed drastically. He looked around carefully and, seeing no one, whispered angrily, "You fatso, if you want to die, don't involve me. He might be nearby." Even the fat on Ma Hongjun's body trembled. Planning Brother Yi's private affairs, if he didn't receive proper training after returning, it would be strange.
Gu Yi, who was hiding in the dark, naturally heard this, but he just smiled indifferently.
Zhu Zhuqing, he did have some good feelings towards her. Compared to others, he indeed gave her many privileges. These things were not given to Zhu Zhuqing as a mentor, but as an onlooker, giving a little light to this poor girl in the dim world.
As for whether he had any thoughts about her. Gu Yi could only say, at least not for the time being. Zhu Zhuqing was excellent, but she was still too young for him.
Suddenly, a powerful aura approached rapidly from the depths of the forest.
"It's here."
Gu Yi's face showed a slight smile and without alerting everyone his figure swiftly moved through the forest.
After traveling for a few kilometers, Gu Yi saw a giant ape-like creature resembling a mountain. Its muscles were coiled like dragons, terrifying and intimidating. Even when on all fours, its height exceeded seven meters.
The Titan Giant Ape looked at the human floating in mid-air and stared back. Without hesitation, it threw a punch. Humans appearing in the Star Dou Forest undoubtedly came to hunt spirit beasts. These human spirit masters would kill any spirit beast they encountered.
Gu Yi watched the giant fist approaching and dodged. Don't expect him to transform the Titan Giant Ape's fist like he did with the Sword Douluo Sword Qi. When the gap in strength reaches a certain level, techniques like softness to overcome strength won't work. The saying "one force breaks ten thousand methods" was the reason.
Although Gu Yi couldn't directly block the Titan Giant Ape's fist, it didn't mean he couldn't win. Strength was just one factor in determining victory.
Furthermore, his intention wasn't to kill the Titan Giant Ape but to prevent it from leaving the depths of the Star Dou Forest.
Does fate really exist?
Gu Yi hadn't tried to change anything over the years. This time was the best opportunity.
The most crucial part of Tang San's growth, the Eight Spider Lances. Because of the presence of the Eight Spider Lances, he could repeatedly turn danger into safety. Because of his presence, Tang San and the others were delayed for a while and didn't encounter Meng Yiran. Can Tang San obtain the Eight Spider Lances this time?
Gu Yi dodged. Various elemental attacks struck the Titan Giant Ape, causing it pain and making it more furious, but they had no other effect. Gu Yi's agility made the Titan Giant Ape furious. How could such a small human dare to stand in front of him?
He then let out a loud roar. The giant roar echoed throughout the Star Dou Forest. Even the Shrek Seven outside the forest became alert and stood up.
Xiao Wu showed an inexplicable expression. She could tell it was Er Ming's roar.
Who dared to provoke the king of the forest?
Suddenly, a figure flashed in Xiao Wu's mind. Perhaps that person could have a battle with Er Ming. Thinking of this, Xiao Wu couldn't help but worry. If it was really Gu Yi who was fighting with the Titan Giant Ape, wouldn't Er Ming be in danger?
"Why is this roar so loud?" Dai Mubai had never heard such a huge roar before, and even felt a slight pain in his eardrums.
Tang San looked serious, staring in the direction where the sound came from, and said in shock, "This is the roar of the Titan Giant Ape, the legendary king of the forest." Everyone who had been learning about spirit beasts these days understood what kind of existence Tang San was talking about.
"The Titan Giant Ape? Shouldn't it live deep in the Star Dou Forest? How did it appear here? But to provoke its roar, I'm afraid it's fighting against a person of the Titled Douluo level." As the most knowledgeable person here besides Tang San, Oscar naturally understood the habits of the Titan Giant Ape.
"Find a suitable spirit beast for San as soon as possible, and we'll leave. If it's really unavoidable, Vice-Dean will protect us and ensure our safety." Oscar added another sentence. If it were before, he would have suggested leaving immediately.
