Chapter 4 Wait a minute, Spirit Eye?
Looking at the blurry green patches gliding by, Tang Wulin felt a sense of familiarity mixed with strangeness. Before his transmigration, Tang Wulin had entered the Spirit Platform many times to hunt soul beasts.
Looking at the scene before him, Tang Wulin tried hard to remind himself that this scene was completely different from before, but the sense of familiarity just wouldn't go away. He didn't know why, and unable to figure it out, he could only marvel at the virtual reality technology of ten thousand years later, while continuing on his way.
The sun was high in the sky. After several days in the forest, Tang Wulin had already walked a considerable distance. Now, he was gradually slowing down. Although he was still full of energy, the bloodline from the Golden Dragon King had made him so hungry that his stomach was practically sticking to his back. He had to find a place with a stream so he could at least get some grilled fish or something.
Just then, a loud scream reached Tang Wulin's ears. Tang Wulin was startled. The voice was very childish and hadn't changed yet. Could it be that a child had accidentally wandered into the Star Dou Great Forest and encountered a soul beast? A sense of justice welled up in his heart, and Tang Wulin instinctively rushed towards the direction of the sound.
Not long ago, Huo Yuhao held up the White Tiger Dagger in his hand, looking nervously at the wind baboon in front of him. When it bared its teeth and charged forward, Huo Yuhao gritted his teeth and was about to rush forward when he accidentally stepped on a rock. As he leaned forward, he accidentally slashed open the belly of the wind baboon that was pouncing in mid-air.
Thump, splash! Huo Yuhao landed face-first on the ground. The corpse of the wind baboon flew past due to inertia, but the blood and various contents inside its stomach smeared all over Huo Yuhao. This disgusted Huo Yuhao, who had just fallen flat on his face. With a look of disgust, he brushed the filth off his body. With a sense of relief at surviving, Huo Yuhao looked at the God Eater that would later be recorded in his personal biography.
A white spirit ring flashed before his eyes, and Huo Yuhao began to hesitate. "Is this a spirit ring? Should I absorb it? After all, it wasn't easy to obtain. But a ten-year spirit ring, do I really have no better choice?"
"Oh dear, Huo Yuhao, what's wrong with you? You're only at level one innate soul power; you should be satisfied with just having a soul ring. Why are you being so dramatic? How will you ever get revenge? But it's precisely because I want revenge that I should accumulate even greater strength. Otherwise, how can I face a behemoth like Duke White Tiger? In the end, I'm just too useless."
Huo Yuhao slumped to the ground, but was quickly disgusted by the lump of internal parts under his buttocks and stood up. At the same time, Huo Yuhao made up his mind and walked towards the ten-year soul ring.
But what happened next surprised him greatly. At that moment, a giant fleshy worm suddenly appeared in front of him, said some obnoxious words, and then stabbed into Huo Yuhao's brain without saying a word. The huge mental shock made Huo Yuhao scream in pain. This is why Tang Wulin is rushing over now.
Upon arriving at the scene, Tang Wulin was shocked by what he saw. The dead baboon and Huo Yuhao leaning against a tree, covered in blood with a kidney stuck to his buttocks, truly stunned Tang Wulin. At first glance, this boy, who was about the same age as him, seemed to have been born from the baboon via cesarean section. However, looking at Huo Yuhao's thin body due to long-term malnutrition, he really did look like a little monkey.
Tang Wulin stepped forward, a soul-guided water gun appearing in his hand. He aimed it at Huo Yuhao's head, pressed the switch, and with a whoosh, Huo Yuhao was choked and opened his eyes. The first thing Huo Yuhao did when he saw the boy in front of him was to be stunned. Putting aside everything else, the boy's handsome appearance truly shocked him.
Looking at the delicate, almost girlish face before him, Huo Yuhao had a strange feeling, as if he were seeing a destined face before his eyes. But the next moment, his heightened senses, honed since childhood, made him instinctively raise the White Tiger Dagger and plunge it towards Tang Wulin's throat.
Two fingers extended, firmly gripping the White Tiger Dagger. Tang Wulin chuckled in surprise, "Hey, hey, don't be so sensitive. I just arrived. What happened to you? Why are you in this state?"
Huo Yuhao was taken aback for a moment, then realized that the person his age didn't seem to have any ill intentions. Sheathing his dagger, he leaned awkwardly against the back of a tree and said, panting, "I've come to hunt soul beasts and obtain my first soul ring."
Tang Wulin asked with some surprise, "Are you alone? No one's with you? Also, are you going to absorb that spirit ring?"
After glancing at the spirit ring, Huo Yuhao, sensing the fleshy worm in his sea of consciousness, shook his head and said, "No need, I already have a spirit ring."
Nodding, Tang Wulin said, "I see. I was originally thinking of taking you to get a spirit ring, but it seems we don't need to now. Alright, is there anything else that's bothering you?"
Recalling his physical condition, Huo Yuhao subconsciously wanted to scratch his head, but almost stabbed the dagger in his hand into his brain.
Startled, Huo Yuhao quickly waved his hands and said, "It's alright, it's alright. I'm so dirty, and you still came to help me. Thank you so much." Tang Wulin awkwardly dodged the dagger that was slashing in front of him, and at the same time noticed the pattern on it. He said with some surprise, "Eh? The patterns on this, are you from the lineage of Duke White Tiger?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao felt a surge of anger and instinctively shouted, "No, they have nothing to do with me!"
After saying this, Huo Yuhao became somewhat wary again, fearing that Tang Wulin might have some connection with the White Tiger Duke. Tang Wulin laughed and said, "Alright, alright, I understand. Put the knife away for now. I only just learned about this pattern myself. I even secretly hitched a ride with one of their young masters."
Huo Yuhao immediately felt ashamed and was amazed by Tang Wulin's boldness in daring to hitch a ride with the White Tiger Duke. This also shrouded Tang Wulin's image in a mysterious veil in his mind.
He put down his dagger and said, "I'm different from them. Look, this is my spiritual martial soul, it's called Spirit Eyes." As he spoke, Huo Yuhao released his true form martial soul. Looking at those bright eyes, which also seemed to have a faint sense of dizziness, Tang Wulin froze. The next moment, he exclaimed in shock, "No, what did you say?"
