The woods were steeped in silence. Sunlight filtered through the leafy canopy, sparkling like stars in the sky—dazzling, yet somewhat piercing. An unfathomable stillness filled the forest.

The patches of light swayed gently from side to side. In a clearing, a red-furred, tusked wild boar as tall as a person was confronting a child barely four feet tall.

Humph~ Humph~ Humph~

The red-furred tusked boar radiated energy, making its fur blaze scarlet like fire. It let out low grunts, hot breath streaming from its nostrils. The grass nearest its snout was withering visibly under that scorching heat.

"Come on. If you refuse to accept it, then keep fighting!" The little boy faced the boar, which stood two heads taller than him, without the slightest fear in his eyes.

The boar moved its hooves and charged at the little boy with a rumbling rush.

Almost at the same time, icy blue light surged from the little boy's body. The surrounding temperature dropped by several degrees. As he suddenly swung his palm, icy blue Dou Qi condensed into a palm of profound ice and slammed fiercely toward the boar.

Black-tier Mid-grade Dou Technique: Frost Palm

Do not underestimate the little boy's combat strength. With a single strike, the originally second-tier magical beast, the Tusk Fire Pig, was blasted backward by that mighty profound ice. It traced an arc through the air before crashing heavily onto the distant ground.

Thin ice crystals covered the Tusk Fire Pig's entire body. It did not move.

The Tusk Fire Pig had fallen!

"After four days of fighting, my realm has become much more stable!"

Hun Han was delighted as he lowered his head to look at his hands. Ever since coming down the mountain, he had entered a forest. His realm had abruptly soared from a two-star Dou Zhe to the terrifying level of an eight-star Dou Shi. Yet this was not necessarily a good thing. An unstable realm would be greatly harmful to future cultivation. That was why the previous scene had occurred.

Hun Han had now been down the mountain for four days. During those four days, he had hunted more than thirty first- and second-tier magical beasts every day. After four consecutive days of battle, his realm had finally stabilized once more.

Hun Han touched his storage ring and drew out a dagger, then began cutting useful materials from the Tusk Fire Pig.

Yun Jian was actually a transmigrator as well, something that had completely exceeded Hun Han's expectations. Besides Hun Han and Xiao Yan, there were actually other transmigrators in this plane. From Yun Jian, Hun Han had learned one lesson: there was no such thing as a protagonist's halo. Everything depended on one's own effort and luck. Without hard work, even a transmigrator with a golden finger could never become the most badass man in this plane, the brightest star in the sky.

Fortunately, Hun Han now possessed Exotic Water and had already stepped into the ranks of the strong.

Just as Hun Han finished taking the materials from the Tusk Fire Pig, a sound came from the sky. Immediately afterward, a violent energy fluctuation transformed into a powerful gale that swept through the surroundings.

"What's going on?"

Hun Han's heart tightened. He stomped off the ground and leaped onto a tree trunk. With another burst of force, he jumped straight to the treetop. Standing on the tip of the tree, he gazed up at the horizon. There, azure and violet colors spread across nearly half the sky. Even the pure white clouds high above had been dyed azure and violet.

"Dou Qi Manifestation Wings?"

Hun Han's eyes widened in surprise. Two conspicuous figures stood in the air ahead of him. Being able to manifest wings from Dou Qi meant they possessed at least the cultivation of a Dou Wang. Battles between Dou Wangs were not common in the Black Corner Region.

"Hm, it's a free show. It would be a waste not to watch. Maybe I can even pick up some combat experience!" Hun Han thought. His back trembled slightly as the silver Lightning Bat Sky Wings unfolded, and he shot toward the front at low altitude.

Looking at the trees retreating like afterimages behind him, it would have been a lie to say Hun Han was not excited at all. Flying low through the air made him want to throw back his head and howl at the sky.

The Lightning Bat Sky Wings were only a Black-tier Mid-grade Flying Dou Skill. Yet Hun Han felt that its flight speed was not slow at all; on the contrary, it was extremely fast. He did not know whether this was the strange enhancement he had gained after devouring Exotic Water.

Hun Han's physical body was now comparable to that of a Dou Wang, and he also possessed a rare treasure like Exotic Water. Thus, to get the best view, he landed directly on a mountain peak. He picked out a large boulder and sat down on it. Then, with a flick of his finger, he took out peanuts, fruit, sunflower seeds, and, yes, a jug of wine that he had prepared long ago from his storage ring.

"Oh, they're actually two women!" Hun Han examined the two people high in the sky. Those shapely, curvaceous figures belonged to two women.

One woman wore a plain dress that wrapped around her full, delicate body. She held a somewhat unusual longsword that emitted an azure glow. Azure indicated that she was a Dou Zhe who cultivated Wind Attribute Dou Qi.

Her long black hair was arranged into a noble phoenix-style coiffure. Her expression was calm and serene, her bearing graceful and dignified, and her beauty captivating. Behind her was a pair of somewhat illusory azure wings. Dou Qi Manifestation Wings meant that she possessed at least the cultivation of a Dou Wang.

The other woman confronting her wore a tight short dress. Her eyes were faintly violet, her face bore tattoos, and violet vapor radiated from her entire body. Under the effects of that violet vapor, the crowns of the trees below withered and turned black.

"A poison master?" Hun Han cracked sunflower seeds, slightly startled that he had encountered a poison master here.

Behind the poison-master woman was a pair of violet wings that seemed filled with noble splendor.

"Who are you, and why have you been relentlessly pursuing me?" The woman in the plain dress parted her red lips. Her calm voice was crisp and pleasant, like pearls falling onto a jade plate.

"Hand over the Heart of the Sea Armor, and we can spare your lives!" The woman in the violet short dress said with a faint curl of her lips.

Your lives?

Only then did Hun Han notice that many Dou Zhes were also lying in ambush within the forest below.

"The Heart of the Sea Armor is something I purchased at the Black Seal Auction House. How could I simply hand it over?" the woman in the plain dress said calmly.

"If that is the case, then I can only take it by force!" the woman in the violet short dress said sharply.

"Then let us fight again!" The woman in the plain dress slowly raised her unusual longsword. As she lifted her hand, tiny azure tornadoes suddenly appeared in the sky. They initially measured only two meters across, but in the blink of an eye, they swelled with the wind into massive tornadoes dozens of meters tall.

Azure tornadoes howled and spun between heaven and earth. Giant trees on the ground were continuously ripped from the earth and shredded into splinters that filled the sky by the violent winds.

"Mm, not bad. As expected of a Dou Wang. I suddenly realized that transmigrating is a good thing too. I get to watch all these fights for free, and they even come with special effects." A faint smile curved Hun Han's lips as he happily ate his sunflower seeds.
