After participating in this sudden battle against the Sea Soul Beast, Zhou Huan and his group of seven rested on Demon Shark Island for another day before setting sail again on the morning of the third day.

Demon Shark Island, watching the Soul Guiding Ship gradually sail away and eventually disappear into the horizon, Bai Paopao said with some reluctance, "Mom, do you think Sister Zhang and the others will pass by here again when they come back?"

Xiao Bai affectionately patted Bai Paopao's head and chuckled, "What? You've only been together for ten days, and you're already reluctant to part?"

Bai Paopao nodded obediently, not denying it. "Yeah, I'm a little reluctant to leave. Sister Zhang, Sister Xiao Xiao, they are all very nice people. This is the first time I've met so many people and become friends with so many of them."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai shook her head slightly and said, "Humans, even the most powerful Limit Douluo, few can live past three hundred years, while our Life far exceeds theirs. So, silly daughter, you must learn to let go."

After a pause, Xiao Bai continued, "Moreover, humans are actually more forgetful creatures."

However, Bai Paopao insisted, "I don't think so. Sister Zhang and Sister Xiao Xiao won't forget me."

This time, Xiao Bai didn't say anything more, but gently ruffled Bai Paopao's hair.

Bai Paopao suddenly asked, "By the way, Mom, we only gave Sister Zhang and the others a few pieces of ten- Ten Thousand Year Whale Jelly and a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone. Isn't that too little of a gift?"

Xiao Bai replied with a helpless expression, "It is indeed too light, but we really don't have anything good that they would want. Even that Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone was left behind by the leader of the Evil Spirit Orca we killed during the battle the night before last. Otherwise, I wouldn't know what to give as a thank-you gift."

Bai Paopao then added a prayer, "I hope everything goes well for Sister Zhang and the others."

On the Soul Guiding Ship.

Zhou Huan casually toyed with a piece of Ten Thousand Year Whale Jelly, reminiscing about the past, when his first opportunity came from intercepting Huo Gua's Ten Thousand Year Whale Jelly.

Seven years have now passed.

Time flies!

Back then, he was just a Soul Grandmaster, but now he's a level 95 Super Douluo, brimming with cheat codes, even more powerful than Huo Gua. He's only slightly less powerful than Electrolux.

So, he just smoothly made it to where he is today?

Looking at the rolling waves below the boat, Zhou Huan was momentarily dazed.

He suddenly remembered the Demon Empress's inexplicable words, and even though Zhou Huan was usually carefree, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, because the unknown is the most terrifying thing.

But for now, Zhou Huan could only sit alone on the deck at the bow of the ship, making wild guesses.

The rest of the people were in their rooms absorbing the "gifts" of their trip to Demon Shark Island.

Zhang Lexuan was naturally absorbing the 100,000-year-old Evil Spirit Orca's left leg bone. After all, apart from Zhou Huan and Xiao Xiao, who already had left leg Soul Bone and didn't need them, it would be very difficult for the other four to absorb Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone Soul Bone, especially one from Evil Spirit Orca.

Therefore, Xiao Xiao and the other four are absorbing the Ten Thousand Year Whale Jelly.

Although Xiao Xiao, Wang Qingya, and Wen Xiaoshuai had all absorbed the Immortal Herb, the Ten Thousand Year Whale Jelly no longer had much effect on them. However, the Ten Thousand Year Whale Jelly was still a rare treasure for improving physical fitness, so it was better than nothing.

For Ye Guyi Nan Qiuqiu, the Ten Thousand Year Whale Jelly was quite effective.

As for Zhou Huan, there's really no need for him to absorb the Ten Thousand Year Whale Jelly; it's practically useless to him now.

Wait a minute, if the Ten Thousand Year Whale Jelly isn't refined after being inhaled, it seems to have some other effects, right?

Thinking of this, Zhou Huan, who was lost in thought, couldn't help but shake his head and smile, sighing, "It's still useless."

"What's useless?"

Suddenly, a gentle voice came from behind Zhou Huan.

It was Zhang Lexuan who came up.

Hearing this, Zhou Huan turned around, smiled, and opened her arms, saying, "Come here, give me a hug, I need some comfort."

Seeing her boyfriend's idiotic expression, Zhang Lexuan rolled her eyes speechlessly, but still walked over, sat on the deck, leaned on Zhou Huan's shoulder, and said, "Why do you seem so preoccupied?"

Zhou Huan immediately hugged Zhang Lexuan and said with a grin, "No, I just suddenly missed you."

Zhang Lexuan: "... You're so sweet-talking."

Although Zhang Lexuan knew Zhou Huan was talking nonsense, she wouldn't call him out on it. She just felt a little sentimental. This guy always liked to show off and always felt that he should bear the pressure. Little did he know that as his girlfriend, she was also happy to share the burden.

However, Zhang Lexuan was always understanding and would never force Zhou Huan to give a clear answer.

She should just stand quietly behind him.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Lexuan heard Zhou Huan and say, "You surely know whether I have a sweet tongue or not."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lexuan immediately elbowed Zhou Huan.

Zhou Huan coughed a few times, then asked seriously, "How did you absorb the Soul Bone so quickly? Is that alright? It's been less than fifteen minutes."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lexuan's lips curled into a slight smile, a departure from her usual humility. "As a level 95 Dual Soul Cores Super Douluo, absorbing a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone is a piece of cake for me."

"Sister Lexuan, you've changed."

How have I changed?

You've become even cuter.

"... How much longer do you think it will take us to reach Dragon Valley?"

"You changed the subject so abruptly, Sister Lexuan, are you blushing?"

"I didn't, I'm not, don't talk nonsense."

"... According to the route map given by Gu Yuena, we've only reached a quarter of the way."

Hopefully, things will continue to go smoothly from now on.

Time flies, and another three months have passed.

Sailing on the high seas is indeed tedious and boring, but the Smooth Sailing, and we didn't encounter any tsunamis or similar situations.

The occasional thousand-year or ten-thousand-year-old Sea Soul Beast they encountered were nothing to worry about, but even a hundred-thousand-year-old Sea Soul Beast wouldn't be enough for Zhou Huan and Zhang Lexuan to defeat.

So, during these three months, Zhou Huan and his six companions on the Soul Guiding Ship played almost every board game Zhou Huan knew in his previous life, from mahjong to Dou Dizhu (a card game), to Three Kingdoms Kill), to Tractor (a card game).

On the morning of the fifth day of the fourth month, Xiao Xiao, standing at the bow of the ship, suddenly let out an excited, childlike voice that resonated throughout the entire Soul Guiding Ship: "We're here! We're here! We've arrived! Everyone, come and see, it's land!"

At this moment, Zhou Huan and the other six stood up from the mahjong table and looked towards the bow of the ship.

Sure enough, that was the land marked on the map!

In other words, the entrance to Dragon Valley is right here.

Zhou Huan was in high spirits and said enthusiastically, "Alright, listen to my command! Tidy yourselves up and get dressed, we are about to become the first people in the Douluo Continent to discover a new continent!"

Then Nan Qiuqiu said innocently, "Weren't we following the map? How come we're the first one?"

Zhou Huan: "..."

"Hahaha!" "Haha!"

The others couldn't help but laugh out loud after hearing this.

Actually, regardless of whether they were the first or not, everyone was naturally very excited to have finally reached their destination.

Soon, the Soul Guiding Ship docked.

Zhou Huan and his seven companions finally set foot on this brand new continent!

Xiao Xiao, that silly girl, immediately lay down on the ground and sniffed it, then looked up and said, "It seems no different from the Douluo Continent."

Upon seeing this, Zhou Huan immediately felt three black lines of varying lengths appear on her forehead, and said in an annoyed tone, "... Do you think you're a puppy, able to smell it?"

However, Xiao Xiao replied, "I've just been away from land for too long, and I miss it a little."

Although the little girl's thoughts and behaviors are rather eccentric, there are still normal people in this team, such as Ye Guyi and Ye Toutie.

Ye Guyi said, "Within my mental perception range, there is no trace of any humans, and it seems there aren't even any Soul Beast, only some ordinary small animals."

Zhang Lexuan nodded in agreement. "That's true. I can't sense any humans or Soul Beast yet. However, in this unfamiliar environment and on this unfamiliar continent, we still need to be careful."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Huan immediately took Zhang Lexuan's hand and said, "Don't worry, I'm here."

Wang Qingya, on the other side, couldn't stand it any longer and said, "Big brother, stop showing off! Look, the little pet is starving. Hurry up and go find some food. I'm so sick of eating chilled food and seafood every day for the past few months. I want some fresh barbecued rabbit!"

Upon hearing that they were going to eat roasted rabbit, Xiao Xiao, who was lying on the ground, immediately kicked her legs and stood up. "Okay, okay, let's go catch a rabbit to eat, and get a spicy rabbit head too."

Then, the tone shifted instantly; the discussion, which was originally about safety issues, turned into a question about food choices.
