Three-Eyed Golden Ni, Soft Rice Tastes Great!

[You are being watched.]

[The Three-Eyed Golden Ni's brilliant golden eyes are sizing you up with great interest, as if looking at a rare treasure.]

[You do not act rashly.]

[Although your second martial soul, Epitaph, has not issued a lethal red alert, this is the Emperor Auspicious Beast! Its appearance often means that those terrifying Great Beasts are nearby.]

[What puzzles you is that this is merely the edge of the Mixed Zone, a hundred and eight thousand miles away from the Core Zone. How did this golden nugget end up out here?]

[Suddenly, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni moves.]

[It walks toward you with elegant strides. Those originally majestic golden vertical pupils actually reveal a hint of human-like curiosity, and it even blinks at you.]

[You quickly understand the reason.]

[It is not interested in you, but in your second martial soul—Epitaph!]

[Epitaph possesses the ability to peek into the future, involving the mysteries of time and causality.]

[And the Three-Eyed Golden Ni, as the Emperor Auspicious Beast, gathers the fortune of the Star Dou Great Forest and controls the ethereal power of fate.]

[Time and fate resonate in a wondrous way at this moment!]

[One human and one beast, just like that, stare at each other, deadlocked on the spot.]

[The situation is momentarily very awkward.]

[You want to move, but you dare not.]

[Because just a moment ago, the instant you tried to take a step, Epitaph issued a frantic warning!

A scene flashed through your mind: a red giant hound with three heads lunged from the void, tearing you into pieces in an instant!]

[Ranked eighth on the Great Beast list—Chi Wang!]

[This old dog is indeed hiding in the shadows to protect its charge!]

[The situation has fallen into a dead loop.]

[Although you are confident you could escape under Chi Wang's nose by using the time erasure of King Crimson, your intuition tells you it is unnecessary.]

[Your sixth sense (or rather, the passive effect of Epitaph) is hinting wildly: stay! This Auspicious Beast will give you an unimaginable gift!]

[Seeing you standing there like a wooden stake, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni tilts its head, seemingly confused.]

[It has mistaken you for one of its own—a strange soul beast that looks like a human but possesses a special aura.]

[Thus, it lets out a low growl at you, which is an invitation.]

["Hey, you two-legged beast, want to come play with this Auspicious Beast?"]

"..."

Su Chen's mouth twitches slightly.

What is this?

Being kept by a rich woman... oh no, being kept by an Auspicious Beast?

However, since Chi Wang did not jump out to object, it means there is a chance!

[You gladly accept the invitation of the Three-Eyed Golden Ni.]

[Thus, a strange duo appears in the Star Dou Great Forest.]

[In front is a majestic Emperor Auspicious Beast, head held high, like a queen inspecting her territory.]

[Behind follows a human youth, hands in his pockets, strolling leisurely.]

[Along the way, you experience what it means to "borrow the tiger's might to intimidate the foxes."]

[Wherever the Three-Eyed Golden Ni passes, all beasts submit! Even those soul beasts with cultivation levels as high as tens of thousands of years, upon sensing the aura of the Auspicious Beast, obediently lie on the ground shivering, not even daring to raise their heads.]

[You have activated the "Star Dou Great Forest duo mode," moving along unimpeded, heading straight for the Core Zone.]

[Along the way, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni plays wildly, like a wild child just let out of a cage.]

[Finally, it mysteriously leads you to a hidden valley.]

["Here, take these pieces of junk."]

[It uses its claws to push aside a pile of rubble, revealing the treasure buried underneath.]

[You take a closer look, and your breathing quickens instantly!]

[Soul bones! Three whole soul bones shimmering with brilliant light!]

[Among them, a right arm bone radiating a dense dark aura is of a quality as high as seventy thousand years!]

[You are stunned. Is this the value of an Auspicious Beast?]

[Treasures that cause bloody storms in the human world are just "junk" that takes up space in its eyes?]

[You do not act coy; with a wave of your hand, you take them all.]

[Although the attributes of these soul bones do not match yours, taking them back to the Body Sect is enough to elevate the sect's foundation to a new level.]

[When drinking water, one must not forget those who dug the well; you have always kept the sect's nurturing grace in your heart.]

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, you have been "living off a woman" in the Star Dou Great Forest for nearly a year.

During this year, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni took you to feast on all the rare treasures across the mixed zone.

Piled high with top-tier resources, your soul power skyrocketed like a rocket, surging directly to level 65!

In the second year, your relationship progressed even further.

On a night filled with brilliant starlight, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni made a shocking decision—she took the initiative to press her forehead against yours.

Fate Guidance!

A surge of profoundly mysterious golden energy poured into your body, fusing perfectly with your second martial soul.

Your Epitaph has evolved!

It is no longer a passive danger warning, but an active deduction of fate! You can even clearly see specific scenes that will occur in the next few minutes!

This is a qualitative leap!

When the two-year period ended, your soul power successfully broke through the level 70 bottleneck, promoting you to a Soul Saint!

A 16-year-old Soul Saint! Throughout the entire history of Douluo, this is an explosive existence.

You feel it is time to leave.

The second awakening of your Body Martial Soul is imminent; it is the most important transformation for a Body Sect soul master.

Upon learning that you were leaving, the light in the eyes of the Three-Eyed Golden Ni instantly dimmed.

She bit the corner of your clothes, whimpering softly, and even wanted to leave the forest with you.

You decisively refused.

Are you kidding? Abducting the auspicious beast? Do you believe that the next second, the Beast God Di Tian would charge out from the core zone and slap you into a pulp?

In fact, over these past two years, Chi Wang, hiding in the shadows, had long wanted to wipe out you, the human brat who "seduced" the auspicious beast.

However, because the auspicious beast protected you so tightly, he could only endure it with frustration.

Now that he sees you are finally getting lost, Chi Wang is so excited he is almost moved to tears; he wishes he could kill a few humans on the spot to celebrate and set off firecrackers to mark the departure of this plague god.

The moment of parting arrived.

You gently hugged the Three-Eyed Golden Ni's furry neck, whispered a few words into her ear, and then turned to leave without the slightest hesitation.

A true powerhouse never drags things out.

The Three-Eyed Golden Ni gazed foolishly at your retreating back, unwilling to leave for a long time. Just as she was about to chase after you, a massive red claw pressed down on the scruff of her neck, pinning her fate in place.

"Tsk tsk tsk, the succubus constitution is confirmed."

Su Chen looked at the text on the simulator and couldn't help but complain.

"I can even conquer soul beasts; is my charm stat maxed out?"

But honestly speaking, this meal... really tasted good!
