Leaving the Forest to Travel the Continent
Chapter 52 Leaving the Forest to Travel the Continent
After everything was arranged in the Star Dou Great Forest, Jerry took Xiao Wu and prepared to leave the forest!
That day, Da Ming, Er Ming, and many other spirit beasts came to see Jerry off. Having spent so much time with the spirit beasts, Jerry realized they were very sincere, honest, and straightforward. They were kind to Jerry, providing him with whatever he needed if it was available in the Star Dou Great Forest. They always did what Jerry asked immediately, without delay. Jerry suddenly felt a pang of reluctance to leave! However, the more he cultivated, the more he felt his lack of knowledge! He urgently needed to go to human society to learn more!
So Jerry, despite his reluctance, left with Xiao Wu!
Xiao Wu was overjoyed after leaving the forest. Cultivating in the forest had been so boring, and Xiao Wu's lively personality had been holding back for a long time. Now that she was finally out, Xiao Wu began to unleash her true nature!
Our first stop after leaving the forest was Soto.
Xiao Wu spent the whole day eating at the snack street, trying all kinds of delicious food, just like a little foodie!
Then they went to a clothing store and bought whatever they liked. They probably wanted to buy all the clothes they hadn’t bought in the past few years. In the end, they stopped when Xiao Wu’s rings were almost overflowing!
Jerry also went to Shrek Academy, but the academy was deserted.
I found out that the people from Shrek Academy moved away two weeks ago! They should be at Blue Tyrant Academy by now!
We spent a few days in Soto City, eating, drinking, and shopping with Xiao Wu every day. The days were relaxing and enjoyable! Xiao Wu even went to the Great Soul Arena to participate in a few soul battles! She won them all. After all, Xiao Wu is now level 48 and is about to become a Soul King. She is truly invincible among the Soul Masters!
Then they returned to Holy Soul Village together. When Old Jack saw his grandson return, he was so excited that tears streamed down his face! Knowing that Jerry was now a level 56 Soul King, he was even more moved to tears.
Old Jack often told others that a Soul Saint had emerged from his village, hence the village's name, Holy Soul Village. But no one believed him, and Old Jack couldn't prove it. Now, his grandson had cultivated to the Soul King level, just two major stages away from becoming a Soul Saint, and his grandson was not even 15 years old! He was certain he would eventually reach the Soul Saint level! Then he could bring glory to the family, so Old Jack was extremely excited, gesturing wildly and speaking incoherently!
Old Jack has not given up on cultivation these past few years, and he is now level 18. Although it is very slow, Old Jack has always persisted in his cultivation!
Jerry then taught the advanced meditation method to Grandpa Jack and gave him a lot of ten-thousand-year-old bone fertilizer, believing that Grandpa Jack would soon be able to cultivate to level 20.
As for Grandpa Jack's future cultivation, Jerry thought of the Ninth Grade Purple Ganoderma. Even Yu Xiaogang at that age could break through, so it seems that the Ninth Grade Purple Ganoderma has a very good effect on strengthening the foundation, nourishing the vital energy, and increasing skill!
Xiao Wu and Jerry stayed in Holy Soul Village after that. Jerry talked to Old Jack about some cultivation methods and knowledge!
Midway through, Jerry found the waterfall where the Blue Silver Emperor was planted. After going inside, he discovered that the lighting was poor, the soil was damp, and it was a bit cold. If the Blue Silver Emperor were planted there, it would never recover in a million years!
Jerry quickly discovered the Blue Silver Emperor, but alas, he was too late. He had hoped to find it and take it with him! However, having lost its Blue Silver Emperor bloodline, its powerful vitality was gone! It had degenerated into Blue Silver Grass, and after being in this enclosed, damp, cold, and poorly lit environment for so long, the Blue Silver Grass had rotted at the roots and died. After the roots rotted, the upper part broke off and fell onto the damp ground, completely decaying. Jerry scanned it with his mental energy and found it to be completely dead, leaving nothing behind, not even seeds!
Sigh! Jerry felt a little sorry for the Blue Silver Emperor. It sacrificed itself for its beloved, only to be planted in such a place by its beloved! It seems there's no intention to resurrect the Blue Silver Emperor!
Jerry then collected the rotten blue silver grass, planning to bury it in a beautiful, well-lit place with a suitable temperature after they got out. He reasoned, "You didn't have a good environment while you were alive, so I'll find you a good one after you die! Dust to dust, ashes to ashes!"
With a sweep of his mental energy, he found a box buried in the soil a meter away from the Blue Silver Queen! With a thought, the box flew out of the soil and landed in front of Jerry. Opening the box, he found a left leg soul bone radiating rich soul power. This must be Ah Yin's soul bone!
Upon inspection, it was discovered that this soul bone had also undergone degeneration, and its skills had changed. Now it can only be described as a 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Grass soul bone! One soul skill is passive healing, with a mediocre healing effect, and another is levitation! Sure enough, after the bloodline degenerated, the soul bone also became weaker.
Sigh, Jerry was starting to blame himself. Thinking back to how Tang Hao had inexplicably gone to the Star Dou Great Forest, Jerry suddenly realized why.
Tang Hao discovered that the Blue Silver Emperor's bloodline was degenerating, realizing a new emperor had appeared. He then sought out the 85,000-year-old Blue Silver King he knew, who told him the new emperor was in the Star Dou Great Forest. However, Tang Hao underestimated the current state of the Star Dou Great Forest, rushing towards its core area with only his brother! Ultimately, reality slapped him in the face; he died before even making it in. Before dying, he saw Jerry and remembered something he regretted, dying with his eyes wide open in disbelief.
He suddenly understood. He had been wondering before, thinking Tang Hao was specifically looking for him and Xiao Wu, but now he knew the reason! And this Blue Silver King betrayed his new emperor—once he found it, he would never let it go! He put away the soul bone and left!
As Jerry left the cave, he whistled! Then a Dark Night Wind Eagle swooped down from the sky, incredibly fast among flying spirit beasts! And this was a 30,000-year-old spirit beast!
Unlike other spirit beasts, the Dark Night Wind Eagle is a gregarious bird, though small in size, about the size of a hummingbird. Despite its small size, it flies incredibly fast. Its small size makes it difficult for others to attack, and its speed allows it to conceal its spirit power fluctuations. Its sharp, metallic beak can easily pierce through the bodies of spirit masters or spirit beasts! Like a bullet, imagine being pierced through a hundred or eighty times – it's truly terrifying!
Jerry instructed Dark Night Wind Eagle to find the Blue Silver Emperor in the Star Dou Great Forest and tell it that an 85,000-year-old Blue Silver King had betrayed it. That's why the two Title Douluos had stormed the Star Dou Great Forest before—to find it! Find the Blue Silver King's location and then notify me; I'll deal with this traitor!
Jerry stayed in Holy Soul Village for a few more days, spending his days working, eating, and listening to stories with Old Jack! Jerry felt he was getting a little lazy, mainly because Holy Soul Village was too comfortable! So he told Grandpa Jack that he was going to go out to cultivate with Xiao Wu! Although Grandpa Jack was reluctant, he knew he couldn't interfere with Jerry's cultivation; a young bird always has to spread its wings and fly, so he agreed!
