I Have A Trillion Protagonist Halos
Chapter 44: Entering The Dark Star Forest

"I am not Qi Yang." Su Zhan frowned slightly and shook his head.

"Not Senior brother Qi Yang ?" Hua Yiyi was taken aback and felt a bit surprised.

A month before coming here, she had already collected a list of the outstanding geniuses from various countries who might participate in the Dark Star Forest event. Qi Yang was among them, and he was ranked quite high. After all, he possessed the White Dragon Saint Body and could fight beyond his cultivation level.

But now, the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect unexpectedly didn't send Qi Yang to compete for the Star Element Fruit? Hua Yiyi was very puzzled and asked, "May I ask who this senior brother is?"

"I am Su Zhan."

Su Zhan…

After thinking for a while, Hua Yiyi realized that she had never heard this name before. Among the famous geniuses of the fifteen nations of the Eastern Territory, there was absolutely no such person!

Song Shanhai also looked at Su Zhan with some surprise, releasing his spiritual power to sense that Su Zhan's cultivation was probably at the initial stage of the Martial Master realm. He was also filled with doubts.

The Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect, which had someone known as invincible in the Martial Master realm like Qi Yang, didn't send him but sent someone at the initial stage of the Martial Master realm? Could it be that they were afraid Qi Yang might have an accident?

But if that were the case, wouldn't it be better to send a slightly older expert at the peak of the Martial Master realm than the current Su Zhan?

Seeing the doubts in Song Shanhai and Hua Yiyi's eyes, Chen Changfeng smiled and said, "Su Zhan joined our Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect a month ago. He has great talent and strength. Both the Sect Master and I agreed that he is the most suitable candidate to go to the Dark Star Forest, so we chose him to come."

"I see. Achieving the Martial Master realm at such a young age, his future is limitless!" Song Shanhai praised, but his face only showed a polite smile without any signs of amazement.

Clearly, it was just a courtesy. Condensing the Martial Master realm at the age of sixteen was indeed not something to boast about among the top geniuses.

Of course, this was also because Song Shanhai didn't know that Su Zhan had broken through from the lowest Meridian Opening realm to the Essence Condensation realm within just over a month. Otherwise, he might have been astonished.

"Senior Brother Su has exceptional talent," Hua Yiyi said with a smile. Although she maintained a smile, the feeling of closeness and warmth from earlier vanished instantly.

There was a sense of keeping one at arm's length.

"Hello, Miss Yiyi, and Senior Song," Su Zhan responded.

"Su Zhan, Senior Song and I are also friends. Miss Yiyi is an acquaintance. If there's anything they need help with in the Dark Star Forest, please lend a hand," Chen Changfeng instructed.

"Alright," Su Zhan nodded.

Upon hearing this, Hua Yiyi and Song Shanhai exchanged a glance, both sensing the strangeness in each other's eyes. Just an initial-stage Martial Master protecting her, Hua Yiyi?

Could it be that Elder Chen couldn't see that she, Hua Yiyi, was already a late-stage Martial Master cultivator?

Hua Yiyi felt a little displeased in her heart, but her face still maintained a faint smile as she said, "No need, the Dark Star Forest is full of dangers. Senior Brother Su should take care of himself!"

Song Shanhai also shook his head with a smile, "Our two countries have a good relationship, and supporting each other is only natural. If you happen to encounter each other in the Dark Star Forest, Yiyi, you should provide appropriate help to this young friend Su."

"Understood," Hua Yiyi nodded perfunctorily and greeted the Ninth Prince. She then stood aside and quietly listened to the conversation between Song Shanhai and Chen Changfeng.

After a while, a huge demonic bird appeared in the sky.

"That's the Blue Flame Eagle King from the Clear Sun Kingdom!"

"The Clear Sun Kingdom is a major power among the fifteen kingdoms of Eastern territory, and they have five spots to enter the Dark Star Forest. I wonder which five individuals have come this time?"

"It is said that more than one genius under the age of thirty in the Clear Sun Kingdom has reached the Martial Master realm. I wonder if it's true or not?"

…

As the Blue Flame Eagle King appeared, everyone's gazes converged, and discussions filled the air.

"The number one genius of the Clear Sun Kingdom, Ye Yunxuan! The Clear Sun Kingdom really sent him!"

Seeing the outstanding individuals stepping down from the back of the Blue Flame Eagle King, Hua Yiyi was pleasantly surprised.

"Master Song, I had a brief encounter with Senior Brother Ye a few years ago. I'll go say hello to him first."

"Very well," Song Shanhai nodded.

With permission granted, a look of joy appeared on Hua Yiyi's face. She didn't even glance at Su Zhan again, turned around, and headed towards the area where the geniuses from the Clear Sun Kingdom were.

"Brother Su, feeling a little down, aren't you?"

Once Hua Yiyi had walked away, the Ninth Prince, Xia Qihai, approached with a smile. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ NƟvelFɪre.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

"What's there to be down about?" Su Zhan looked at him with some surprise.

Xia Qihai chuckled, "A beautiful girl like her showing completely different attitudes towards you and that Ye Yunxuan. I understand that psychological feeling. But Brother Su, don't take it to heart too much."

"I wasn't really paying attention to it." Su Zhan shook his head and then curiously asked, "Is this Ye Yunxuan very powerful?"

"He's very powerful. He's only twenty-five years old and already a strong Origin Elixir realm cultivator. Moreover, his actual combat strength is probably much stronger than an average early-stage Origin Elixir warrior!"

"I see."

Su Zhan understood why Hua Yiyi was so excited. If she could have the protection of an Origin Elixir realm cultivator in the Dark Star Forest, it would greatly enhance her sense of security. And most likely, she had compared himself to Ye Yunxuan in her mind, and the difference was like night and day!

After all, what others could sense was only his early-stage Martial Master realm, and they couldn't know about his Sun Flame True Qi, Great Sun Divine Body, Firestar Sword Technique, and so on. Su Zhan smiled slightly and didn't let it bother him.

"Actually, apart from Ye Yunxuan, there are many other powerful geniuses this time. For example, the outstanding talent from the Fire Cloud Temple in the Lie Kingdom, who possesses the innate Fire Spirit Body, and also the genius from the Chen Kingdom…"

With nothing better to do, Xia Qihai began discussing the powerful talents from various countries with Su Zhan.

Su Zhan listened attentively, his gaze lingering on the individuals Xia Qihai mentioned, and he made a mental note of them.

…

Half a day later.

Ripples suddenly appeared in the sky!

The starting point of those ripples was marked by the emergence of a black hole. Subsequently, the surrounding space trembled violently, and the black hole continued to expand.

Finally, it transformed into a three-meter diameter dark vortex, hovering in the air several meters above.

"The spatial passage has opened!"

Everyone's spirits were lifted.

Someone immediately entered the vortex, disappearing without a trace!

Song Shanhai looked at the vortex with a solemn expression. "Yiyi, the Dark Star Forest is extremely dangerous. You must be extra careful. Otherwise, if something happens, I won't be able to explain to Her Majesty the Empress!"

"Master, rest assured. I have already agreed with Ye Brother to act together. Ye Brother is a strong Origin Elixir realm cultivator. With him around, I will be fine!" Hua Yiyi smiled sweetly, walked past Su Zhan and the others, and with a tiptoe, leaped into the spatial passage.

"Although the exact location upon arrival in the Dark Star Forest is uncertain, the margin of error will be within twenty li from the entrance of the spatial passage. If the two of you intend to team up, it is also possible." General Li glanced at Xia Qihai and Su Zhan and said.

"We have already discussed it earlier, but Brother Su prefers to act alone, so let's forget it." Xia Qihai shook his head and also walked towards the entrance of the spatial passage.

Chen Changfeng looked at Su Zhan and advised, "Su Zhan, be cautious when entering the Dark Star Forest. Don't let your guard down. The dangers in the Dark Star Forest are far greater than any place you have been to before!"

"I understand. I will proceed with caution." Su Zhan took a deep breath, and his true qi erupted from the soles of his feet. Like an arrow, he shot into the spatial passage!
