It was time to obtain her seventh soul ring. Wang Qiu'er thought to herself. Her transformation was different from that of ordinary soul beasts.
Because she could freely shift between soul beast and human forms, she didn't possess any intrinsic origin power that could be converted into a soul ring. She could only hunt soul beasts and obtain soul rings the same way ordinary soul masters did.
Although she had inherited Huo Yuhao's memories and thus knew the method of condensing soul rings, knowing something and actually putting it into practice were two completely different matters.
What's more, the soul ring condensation method itself was still far from mature.
Hm?
As if sensing something, Wang Qiu'er suddenly turned her gaze in a certain direction. A blood-red, eerie vertical eye opened on her forehead. As the Eye of Destiny opened and closed, it emitted a faint glow.
Her body began to tremble—part joy, part disbelief—but she was certain her perception could not be wrong.
In the next instant, Wang Qiu'er shot off like an arrow released from a bow, rushing toward the direction she had sensed.
Di Tian froze for a moment. What could have made the Auspicious Beast so anxious? Still, he immediately followed after her.
On the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, after several days of arduous travel, Zhang Lexuan and Su Xing arrived with Xiao Lian. They hunted a nearly four-hundred-year soul beast to serve as Xiao Lian's first soul ring.
Don't talk about rigid soul ring age limits—does a twelve-year-old girl have the same endurance as a six-year-old? What's wrong with exceeding it by twenty or thirty years?
As the most dangerous soul beast forest on the continent, most people entered the Star Dou Great Forest trembling with fear. But clearly, that didn't apply to Zhang Lexuan and Su Xing.
A yellow soul ring encircled Xiao Lian's body as she remained in the process of absorption.
Meanwhile, Su Xing had caught several ten-year Soft-Boned Rabbits. He lit a fire, set them on the rack, added seasonings and salt—his movements smooth and practiced.
Coming to the Star Dou Great Forest without going native would be a waste. This was the perfect chance to sample the local specialties.
Su Xing focused intently on turning the roast, brushing oil, and sprinkling spices, his expression unusually serious.
Zhang Lexuan watched from the side with a smile. This guy—no matter the situation—was always such a foodie.
But the next moment, she noticed Su Xing's gaze suddenly turn toward the inner region of the Star Dou Great Forest. His brows knit tightly, so focused that he didn't even realize the rabbit on the grill had started to burn.
"Xiao Xing, what's wrong?" she asked.
Not long after she spoke, Zhang Lexuan felt it too. Her eyes followed his toward the same direction.
At that very moment, a golden figure flashed by and stopped ten meters in front of the three of them.
When she saw the appearance of the suddenly arrived soul beast, Zhang Lexuan's expression tightened. She had once read records about it in the Sea God Pavilion's archives.
The Three-Eyed Golden Ni—the Fate Auspicious Beast of the Star Dou Great Forest, also known as the Emperor of Soul Beasts.
Its own combat power was already formidable, and as an Auspicious Beast, it was certain to be guarded by other powerful soul beasts.
Fighting the Auspicious Beast in the Star Dou Great Forest was tantamount to courting death—especially when one of their group was still absorbing a soul ring.
Thus, Zhang Lexuan lowered her posture and said, "Respected Emperor of Soul Beasts, we have no intention of offending you."
Wang Qiu'er didn't even look at her. From the very beginning, her gaze had been fixed on Su Xing, never wavering. In her golden eyes surged intense joy and an indescribable longing.
At this time, Di Tian finally arrived. When he saw Su Xing, his expression changed drastically, his pupils shrinking violently.
He's still alive!The exclamation echoed uncontrollably in Di Tian's heart. He couldn't tell whether this was good or bad and immediately contacted his lord to let her decide.
Observing their expressions, Su Xing also noticed that the beautiful golden soul beast's attention was entirely on him. For reasons he couldn't explain, she gave him an inexplicable sense of closeness.
Almost unconsciously, Su Xing stepped forward, wanting to reach out and touch the beautiful soul beast—but Zhang Lexuan quickly pulled him back.
"Are you… alright?"
At that moment, Wang Qiu'er spoke. Her voice trembled slightly.
Zhang Lexuan's expression changed. Could it be that Su Xing had known this Emperor Auspicious Beast before? Whatever she intended to do, it was already too late.
Although the one before him was a soul beast, Su Xing could clearly see the complex emotions contained in her eyes.
For some reason, she felt incredibly familiar—like someone he had known for a very long time.
"Did we… know each other before?"Su Xing asked tentatively. Though phrased as a question, he felt that the answer was probably yes.
That unique sensation—and the soul beast behind her. No, not a person either, but a soul beast. That soul beast seemed equally surprised to see him.
When Wang Qiu'er heard Su Xing's words, her body shook violently. Trembling, she asked, "You… don't remember me?"
As her words fell, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni transformed into human form amid a burst of golden light. Her golden eyes locked onto Su Xing's, brimming with boundless emotion.
How could it be her?When Zhang Lexuan saw the golden-haired woman the Auspicious Beast had transformed into, her heart jolted. Wang Qiu'er had once been selected as a reserve team member and a key cultivation target; Zhang Lexuan had met her before.
She never imagined that Wang Qiu'er was actually the Auspicious Beast in human form.
At this moment, space rippled slightly, and Gu Yue Na appeared, dressed in a flowing silver gown.
Su Xing had been about to ask Wang Qiu'er something, but Gu Yue Na's appearance instantly put him on edge. That beautiful woman gave him an overwhelming sense of danger.
This was the first time anyone had ever made him feel this way—as if she could effortlessly crush him to death with a single hand.
Gu Yue Na, on the other hand, was equally surprised to see that he was still alive. She examined Su Xing with mild curiosity and said, "You human really do surprise this seat—surviving even under those circumstances."
Su Xing was stunned. From her words, she clearly knew him as well. But these were all soul beasts—how could he possibly have had any interaction with them in the past?
Di Tian moved his lips slightly, transmitting Su Xing's current condition to Gu Yue Na.
"So that's how it is. Damage to the divine soul?"After hearing Di Tian's report, Gu Yue Na nodded slightly. "That explains it."
Then she turned to Di Tian and commanded, "Bring them to the Lake of Life."
Her tone allowed no refusal. She didn't seek Su Xing's or Zhang Lexuan's opinion at all.
"Yes, my lord."Di Tian bowed slightly and watched as Gu Yue Na disappeared into the void.
He then turned to Su Xing, Zhang Lexuan, and the others, making a polite gesture. "Please."
His attitude was fairly courteous.
Zhang Lexuan's heart tightened. She felt that something bad was about to happen—that events were spiraling out of control.
But she had no way to stop it. The moment Beast God Di Tian appeared, it was already destined that she could no longer halt the course of events.
Su Xing was worried as well, but he also wanted to take this opportunity to understand what was going on. Besides, Gu Yue Na hadn't given him any chance to refuse.
And so, after waiting for more than ten minutes, Su Xing, Zhang Lexuan, and Xiao Lian—who had finished absorbing her soul ring—followed Di Tian into the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest: the Lake of Life.
By the lakeside, Su Xing and Wang Qiu'er embraced each other, their foreheads touching. The Eye of Destiny appeared once more on Wang Qiu'er's brow.
At the same time, an identical vertical eye裂 open on Su Xing's forehead. Golden light poured forth, intertwining with the red glow from Wang Qiu'er's Eye of Destiny, releasing concentric rings of golden-red radiance—dazzlingly beautiful.
