Shallows.

On a small hill.

Chen Fan lay in wait here, having "ambushed" for an hour.

Below this small hill, a strange-looking Soul Beast was grazing.

This Soul Beast resembled a sheep, with nine tails and four ears.

Even more bizarre, its eyes were on its back.

After careful observation, Chen Fan confirmed it was a wood-type Soul Beast called a Boyi.

The Boyi Soul Beast is generally gentle, with a great love for grazing, and its weakness is the eyes on its back.

However, once provoked, this Soul Beast becomes extremely violent.

Even if its opponent is several times stronger, it will charge fearlessly.

Knowing this, Chen Fan hesitated.

If he attacked the Boyi Soul Beast, it would undoubtedly become enraged.

And the sharp horns on its head weren't just for show.

If those things pierced his body, it wouldn't just hurt; it would surely leave a pair of bloody holes!

But seeing the Boyi Soul Beast finish eating and preparing to leave, Chen Fan knew he couldn't wait any longer.

He reversed his grip on the alloy dagger in his hand and swiftly charged down the slope.

As he sprinted, Chen Fan's Five-clawed Golden Dragon Martial Soul emerged and quickly enveloped him.

Facing a real Soul Beast for the first time, Chen Fan dared not take any chances!

At this moment, the Boyi on the slope also noticed Chen Fan.

With a few "baa baa baa" sounds, it charged toward Chen Fan.

Seeing this, Chen Fan's entire body surged with Soul Power, and he braced himself with full concentration.

Soon, they met.

The Boyi's horns aimed directly at Chen Fan, who quickly dodged.

At the same time, Chen Fan thrust his dagger toward the Boyi.

"Baa..."

However, at that moment, the Boyi Soul Beast suddenly let out another cry.

Then, its skill "Fearless Charge" was activated.

The Boyi's front hooves paused, then it executed a 360-degree turn on the spot.

With the skill's boost, it charged at Chen Fan again.

This time, the Boyi's speed was incredibly fast, and its horns glowed with a strange light.

Chen Fan sensed danger and hurriedly tried to evade, but it was too late.

In the next second, Chen Fan dropped the dagger and tightly grasped the Boyi's horns with both hands.

Both sides came to a standstill.

Boyi: "Baa baa baa..."

(Why aren't you following the script? You should be blocking with your dagger!)

Chen Fan ignored the Boyi's incessant bleating.

He exerted force with his legs, released the Boyi's horns, and flew backward.

Seeing this, the Boyi charged again.

Chen Fan wasn't polite, immediately preparing his Soul Stone skill.

"Rising Dragon Fist!"

With Chen Fan's shout, miniature golden dragons appeared behind him.

Then, Chen Fan unleashed a punch.

The miniature golden dragons shot out, covering the Boyi and causing it to cry out!

Taking advantage of the Boyi's moment of resistance, Chen Fan advanced again.

As they passed each other, Chen Fan returned to his previous spot and picked up the alloy dagger.

Then, Chen Fan turned back.

Before the Boyi could turn around, the alloy dagger was thrust into its back.

The intense pain made the Boyi thrash wildly, but Chen Fan refused to let go.

After about half an hour, the Boyi finally stopped struggling.

Search "pawread dot com" for the original.

After delivering another fierce stab, Chen Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He had finally, with his own strength, killed his first Soul Beast!

Even if it was through attrition!

But if Chen Fan didn't say, who would know the process?

Chen Fan quickly got up, used the alloy dagger to break open the Boyi's head.

Then, Chen Fan saw a Lesser Soul Stone emitting a white glow.

He picked up the Lesser Soul Stone and wiped the bloodstains on his clothes.

After examining it carefully, Chen Fan smiled happily.

Even though it was just a Lesser Soul Stone, it was something Chen Fan had obtained on his own.

This sense of joy was something others couldn't understand.

Pocketing the Soul Stone, Chen Fan left the area.

The scent of blood would attract other Soul Beasts.

...

After his initial victory, Chen Fan felt a bit elated.

In his view, real Soul Beasts weren't that strong after all.

So, Chen Fan began his reckless journey in the shallows!

Level 1 Menghuai, looks silly!

Charge!

Whoa, it's actually Level 2!

Can't beat it, retreat!

But Menghuai wasn't willing to let Chen Fan go.

It was sleeping peacefully in its territory, and you threw a stone at it!

Throwing a stone was one thing, but you also used a skill.

The key was that Chen Fan's skill had a defense-breaking trait, rendering Menghuai's defense ineffective.

Hit directly by the "Rising Dragon Fist," Menghuai was naturally enraged.

The key was that Menghuai could clearly sense that the human who provoked it was very weak!

Being challenged by a weakling was intolerable!

So, it wanted to teach this human a lesson.

Meanwhile, Chen Fan, fleeing in embarrassment, felt quite frustrated.

From Level 1 to Level 3 Menghuai, they didn't look much different!

The only way to distinguish their level was by the number of skills.

Level 1 had one, Level 2 had two, Level 3 had three!

But when Menghuai used its skills, it was definitely provoked.

Chen Fan wanted to explain to the Menghuai behind him that he didn't do it on purpose.

However, Menghuai seemed unwilling to let him go, chasing and releasing skills as it pursued.
