In April 2012, the northernmost part of the empire, Beimeng Province, Zhenbeast Pass.

Beimeng Province is a province on the northernmost border of the Heavenly Soul Empire, and Zhenbeast Pass is a city on the northernmost border of Beimeng Province.

There, it is the territory that belongs to the soul beast, and it can also be said to be the 'empire' of the soul beast.

And the name of this border city, the Beast Control Pass, as the name suggests, is the level of the soul beasts, and its role is to monitor and defend the fierce soul beasts in the soul beast forest, so as not to let them break into the territory of the empire and endanger the people.

The magnificent city wall to the north of the Beast Pass, which is several times higher than the ordinary city wall, is a dividing line between soul beasts and humans, but it does not mean that there are no traces of humans at all north of this high wall, on the contrary, there are not a few people outside this 'wall'.

There is a distance of about 100 miles between the entrance of the Soul Beast Forest and the huge city wall of the Town Beast Pass, and in the center of this distance, there is a small town called 'Brave Town'.

In fact, this town originally had no name, but later there were more people who called it so, and it became his 'official' name, and the reason why people called it so is because most of the people who came to this town could be called 'brave' - brave people who dared to enter the soul beast forest.

The Soul Beast Forest is not as famous as the three dangerous places on the continent, but has been separated independently, it is an existence higher than the three major dangerous places, and it is recognized as the most dangerous place on the Heavenly Soul Continent, and there is no one.

However, compared to the three dangerous places of 'one mountain, one valley, and one swamp' that are nine deaths after entering, most soul masters are more willing to go to the Soul Beast Forest to break through, because although the Soul Beast Forest is known as 'ten deaths and no life' after entering, it refers to the result of 'really' entering the core area of the Soul Beast Forest - the Soul Beast Forest is too big, and its peripheral area is not as terrifying as the legend.

Moreover, there is another difference between the Soul Beast Forest and the three dangerous places, that is, it is also regarded by some people as a 'treasure land'.

In the Soul Beast Forest, what is the most? In addition to plants, it is naturally a soul beast, and soul beasts, in the eyes of some soul masters, are equivalent to 'soul crystals', equivalent to 'wealth', and equivalent to 'shortcuts to cultivation'.

A soul master, if you want to be honest and increase your strength by simply cultivating without relying on external forces, it is too difficult, and all kinds of things that can speed up cultivation have naturally become the object of pursuit, the yuan stone is buried deep underground, which is rare and rare, and most of the yuan stone veins are in the hands of big families or big sects, outsiders don't want to get involved at all, but the soul crystal is not, he doesn't belong to anyone, as long as you have the ability to kill the soul beast, the soul crystal obtained is naturally yours, use the soul crystal to cultivate, get twice the result with half the effort. Moreover, in addition to the most valuable soul crystals on soul beasts, many soul beasts are also treasures, and even if they don't use them, they can trade many good things when they take them out. In addition, there are not a few kinds of heavenly and earthly treasures in the soul beast forest.

To sum up, although the Soul Beast Forest is regarded as a place of great evil, there are still countless soul masters to break into, whether it is cultivation, treasure hunting, adventure, or searching for contract soul beasts, etc., it is the best place to go - of course, all of this is based on the premise that you are only active in the peripheral areas below the fifth level, unless you want to seek death, then you can go inside.

If you have the strength of the Soul Venerable, you can try to enter the sixth-level area, and as for the seventh-level area, or beyond...... Perception of it was almost blank, as none of the people who went in to explore it came back alive......

Brave Town,It's a place for these soul masters who go to the Soul Beast Forest,Or come back alive from the Soul Beast Forest,In addition to some necessary shops、Inns、Taverns and the like,The most important thing in the town is the most central 'Brave Union',This is not an organization.,It's just a place equivalent to an exchange place.,This is usually the first place where soul masters go after entering the town.。

It is said to be a guild, but in fact, it is also a place equivalent to a bar, a huge hall, full of tables and chairs, people come and go, many soul masters sit in the hall alone or in groups, and a large counter is used to ask for information and hand over tasks.

One of the most important functions here is to issue various tasks, or to ask for some kind of soul crystal, or some kind of cub of a soul beast, or some kind of heaven and earth treasure...... Many things that some soul masters or forces need but are too lazy to find by themselves will post the quest here, as long as you come back with the things on the quest, you can get the corresponding reward.

Many bounty hunters or mercenary teams make a living from this.

......

Today, there is almost only a special guest in the union where soul masters gather......

A young boy of about ten years old.

When the little boy stepped into the rather noisy guild hall with some timidity, he was immediately frightened by more than a dozen glances and almost turned around and ran, but after hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and trotted to the counter in the innermost part of the hall, and then leaned back on the counter and gasped for a few breaths, as if it had taken him a lot of energy to run the distance of less than 100 meters just now.

And the few who looked at him also withdrew their gazes, as if they had lost interest.

"Huh......" The little boy breathed a long sigh of relief, turned to face the high counter, stood on tiptoe on the counter, and asked timidly, "Hello grandpa, I, my name is Xiaoyi...... Is this a place where you can delegate tasks?"

Behind the counter was a kind-looking old man, who did not ignore the boy because of his age, and smiled: "Yes, little one, what are you doing here?

Xiao Yi shook his head: "I, I'm here to entrust the task." ”

"Entrustment?" the old man was stunned for a moment, and then said with a strange expression, "What do you want to entrust?"

"I ...... I'm going to commission the search for the Star Grass, the kind that can cure all diseases, these ...... These are entrustment money, do you see enough??" Xiao Yi said this in his immature voice, and at the same time carefully took out a small cloth ball from his arms, and after slowly opening it, there were more than a dozen copper coins lying inside, each of which was polished brightly, and it seemed that he was usually cared for in every way.

“......”

There was a moment of silence in the whole hall, almost all of the people present were soul masters, and the strength that dared to come here was not weak, most of them were above the soul realm, naturally many people heard what Xiao Yi said, and after a short silence, there was a burst of laughter, as if they had heard some big joke.

"He said he was going to commission the search for the Celestial Star Grass, do you use those copper coins? haha...... Whose kid is this, is it an idiot??"

"Tianxing Grass can indeed cure most diseases, for them ordinary people, it is an elixir to bring the dead back to life, but it is useless for soul masters, although it is worth a thousand gold in the world of ordinary people, but that thing is in the fifth-level area of the Soul Beast Forest, who can reach that place, who will scarce this little money? No one will be willing to bend down and pull it when they step on it. ”

"What a cute little fellow, he's from 'that village,' isn't he? and only the 'outcasts' there can be so ignorant......

"It's just that a child is not sensible, and it's not a shame to be a soul master and make a child happy......"

"Hello, then you take his task and help him find the Celestial Star Grass. ”

"Come on, I'm not merciful enough to joke with my life......"

Maybe it was a little boring, and many people in the hall began to talk about it, which made Xiao Yi show a trace of timidity again, and said with a flushed face: "No, isn't it enough......?" But that's all the savings I've saved up for two years...... Grandpa, can you give me the Celestial Star Grass?"

"This ......" The old man behind the counter did not laugh like the others, but sighed, "Alas, little one, you go back, you can't get the ...... of the Star Grass"

"No, I'm not leaving! I must get the Heavenly Star Grass!" Xiao Yi suddenly became anxious, and said with a crying voice, "The village chief's grandfather said that only the Heavenly Star Grass can save my mother, she has been sick for many years, and the village chief's grandfather said that she will die in a few months......!"

The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and he leaned on the counter and begged, "Please...... If the money is not enough, I can still save it, or ...... I can do the work for you! I can mop the floor, I can do the laundry, and I can cook for as long as you want! Please, give me the star grass! Please save my mother...... I didn't have a father since I was a child, I don't want to be without a mother anymore, please......"

Xiao Yi kept repeating the words of begging, and the people in the hall fell silent, some of them showed sympathy, and some of them looked indifferent, but none of them had the intention of helping.

"Alas......" the old man sighed, and said helplessly, "It's useless for you to beg me, there is no Tianxing grass in the guild at all, and your commission can't be sent out at all, silly boy, don't be naïve, go home and accompany your mother...... That's all you can do......"

"I ......" Xiao Yi wanted to beg again, but seeing the sympathy and helplessness in the old man's eyes, he seemed to understand that everything was in vain at a young age, tears slipped from his eyes in large pieces, but he stubbornly refused to cry, bit his lip tightly, and didn't even notice that the bite was bleeding, and silently wrapped up the dozen copper coins little by little, ready to turn around and leave.

But at this moment, a hand suddenly stretched out from the side and took the bag of copper coins in his hand.

"Hehe, Xiaoyi, is ......it? I'll take it!"

Sorry for the late update, new story and environment, there are many backgrounds to explain, this time the plot will develop quickly, the first small climax will come soon, there will be new horcruxes and self-created weapon skills debut, so stay tuned......
