Chapter 21: Star Dou Great Forest

After several days of arduous trekking, Jerry and Xiao Wu finally arrived at the Star Dou Great Forest.

As soon as they entered the forest, they were surrounded by towering trees.

These trees were high enough to touch the clouds, blocking out the sky and sun, lush and green, which was breathtaking.

Some places were still filled with thin clouds and mist, making it appear somewhat mysterious and dim even when the sunlight shone on the ground through the leaves during the day.

The ground was covered by dense vegetation, and there were some vines growing around the big trees, with all kinds of strange wild flowers scattered among them, and a faint fragrance filled the air.

Occasionally, a few roars of spirit beasts could be heard, making them clearly feel the potential danger in the forest, creating a feeling of wanting to retreat.

Looking at the forest in front of them, Xiao Wu appeared unusually excited. After all, this was her home. She hadn't returned for six years since coming to the human world after transforming, and now that she was about to arrive home, she was eager to return.

Jerry and Xiao Wu walked in the Star Dou Great Forest, feeling the mysterious and dangerous aura around them.

They carefully bypassed the dense trees, avoided the encirclement of vines, paid attention to the grass under their feet, and tried their best to avoid spirit beasts that might appear.

The air in the forest was fresh and moist, making them feel happy. Occasionally, a ray of sunlight spilled onto the ground through the gaps in the leaves, forming patches of golden light spots, as if they were the guide for them to move forward in the forest.

"Brother, let's wait directly on the outskirts of the forest. Erming has already sensed that I'm back and will come to pick us up soon."

Xiao Wu said happily.

"Okay, Xiao Wu, you have to protect me later, don't let me be stepped to death by Erming!" Jerry joked.

After waiting for a while, they felt vibrations coming one after another. Was it an earthquake?

Before they had time to think, a Titan Giant Ape more than ten meters high descended from the sky.

"Boom!"

A huge landing sound came from in front of them, accompanied by the shaking of the ground. Jerry felt his brain was dazed, and his calves couldn't stop trembling.

After the Titan Giant Ape landed, it stood up directly, two huge fists beating its chest, and a huge roar came from its mouth.

Seeing that Jerry was scared, Xiao Wu hurriedly said: "Okay! Okay! Erming, this is the brother I recognized in the human world. Don't scare him. Hurry up and take us home to find Daming."

Hearing Xiao Wu's words, the Titan Giant Ape reached out, grabbed Jerry and Xiao Wu, and placed them directly on its shoulders!

"Brother Jerry, hurry up and hold on to Erming, we're going home!"

They saw Erming squat slightly, jump violently, and jump a thousand meters away in one go.

Jerry was so scared that he held on very tightly. This jump was hundreds of times more intense than a roller coaster.

Jerry originally thought the Titan Giant Ape relied on walking, but he didn't expect it to rely on jumping!

Although he had practiced for a few years, Jerry was essentially still an ordinary person.

Before coming, he had already anticipated the power of the Titan Giant Ape and had done psychological preparation, but when he truly saw it, he was directly shocked.

Jerry couldn't understand why other transmigrators in the novels he read had such good psychological quality. Was it because they were strong, so their psychological quality was good? But everyone was a modern person who transmigrated, all grown up under the red flag, and hadn't seen big storms since childhood. How did they become mentally strong as soon as they transmigrated?

Jerry had transmigrated to this world for nine years and had practiced for six years after his martial soul awakened. He thought he was already familiar with this world and his heart was already very strong, but it wasn't until he saw the behemoth Titan Giant Ape that he truly knew his insignificance.

Soon they arrived at the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest. First, they saw mountains, one after another, endless. Under the mountains, there was a wide lake, the lake water was clear, reflecting the blue sky, white clouds, mountains, and trees.

This area was very quiet, unusually quiet, as if one could hear a needle falling on the ground very clearly.

The Titan Giant Ape jumped to the lakeside and put Jerry and Xiao Wu down. As soon as he touched the ground, Jerry sat directly on the ground, and his legs were still numb even now.

The core area had arrived. This should be the home of Xiao Wu, Daming, and Erming. They were all hundred-thousand-year spirit beasts, and this was their territory. Other spirit beasts didn't dare to come, and even birds didn't dare to pass by, which was why it was so quiet.
