The Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum and the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew.

These two kinds of Immortal Herb will provide him with the greatest boost at this stage.

The Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum primarily cultivates physical strength and can greatly enhance physical power.

The Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew technique targets spiritual power, which is perfect for further developing the Eye of Life.

He first picked up the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum).

This was a huge chrysanthemum, each petal resembling a fuzzy tail. Following his memory, Dai Huabin first ate the petals, then sucked out the stamens.

Upon tasting the Immortal Herb, a balanced and peaceful energy instantly exploded within the body.

There was no tearing sensation, only an extremely thick and intense heat that surged wildly through my limbs and bones.

Dai Huabin felt his bones making subtle popping sounds, and his muscle fibers being constantly stretched and reorganized.

Combined with the powerful regenerative abilities of the Life Gold, this transformation process became exceptionally smooth.

Then, he took the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew).

A cool liquid dripped into my eyes, and instantly a wave of clarity rushed to my brain.

Within his spiritual sea, Electrolux's fragments of consciousness seemed to sense this pure spiritual energy, emitting pleasant fluctuations.

The Eye of Life appeared on his forehead, its cyan-gold light growing ever deeper.

A day later, Dai Huabin suddenly opened his eyes.

A faint golden light flashed deep within his eyes.

He stood up, casually threw a punch, and a muffled thud resounded in the air.

Physical strength has at least doubled.

The wondrous velvet reaches to the heavens, its golden light undiminished!

More importantly, it's Soul Power.

Originally stuck at level 38, the Soul Power, propelled by the medicinal power of the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, broke through level 39 without any hindrance, directly reaching the level 40 threshold.

Further Soul Power Level can only be obtained after completing the fourth Soul Ring event.

Dai Huabin turned to look at Ice Empress, who was still in seclusion, but did not disturb her.

He left the Undead Semi-Plane alone and determined his direction.

The quality of the spirit beasts in Sunset Forest is too poor, making it difficult to find a ten-thousand-year-old spirit beast suitable for his Ice Soul White Tiger Martial Soul.

If you want top-tier Soul Ring, you still have to go to the Star Dou Great Forest.

Dai Huabin spent three days traveling eastward from Sunset Forest, passing through two small towns, and finally standing on the northern edge of Star Dou Great Forest.

The last time I came here was when I enrolled and was waiting for Huo Yuhao.

Now...

Things are completely different now.

The Ice Empress Blood Pact altered his physique, and the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum further elevated his physical abilities to an absurd level.

Furthermore, with the nourishment of the Life Gold over such a long period, his physical endurance is far beyond that of ordinary Soul Master.

Therefore, he doesn't intend to play by the rules for his fourth Soul Ring.

Under normal circumstances, getting a fourth Soul Ring that is four to five thousand years old is the best you can hope for.

A truly daring genius might attempt something that takes ten thousand years.

He plans to go straight for 30,000 years.

Even 40,000 years.

The prerequisite is that he needs to find a suitable Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

On the first day, he circled around the perimeter and practiced against three thousand-year-old Soul Beast.

After being possessed by the Ice Soul White Tiger, his combat power was more than one level stronger than it was half a year ago; even thousand-year-old Soul Beast couldn't withstand more than three moves from him.

The next day, he ventured deep into the central part of the forest.

The Soul Beast here are noticeably more ferocious; you can occasionally encounter one or two that are ten thousand years old.

But either the attributes are incorrect, or the year is insufficient.

On the third day, he had already entered the mixed zone of the Star Dou Great Forest.

The vegetation in this area is tall and dense, with tree canopies that almost completely block out the sunlight, leaving only a few scattered beams of light to pierce through the gaps.

The air was filled with a strong smell of humus, mixed with the scents of various flowers, plants, and animals.

Dai Huabin stopped under a thick, ancient tree and looked around.

There is no suitable goal.

It's been three days, and I haven't encountered a single one that meets the criteria.

As for why Dai Huabin dared to be so reckless, it was partly due to the existence of the Undead Semi-Plane, and partly due to the existence of the Ice Empress.

"Forget it, there's no use in rushing."

Dai Huabin decided to fill his stomach first.

He found a relatively open space nearby, where a shallow stream flowed by, its water clear. It was the perfect place to cook.

He captured a Soul Beast, detached its two legs, and then took out spare seasonings from his storage ring.

After all, he's a time traveler; grilling meat is nothing new to him.

A fire was lit, and the skewered thigh meat was placed on it. The grease dripped onto the charcoal and sizzled, and the aroma of the meat quickly filled the air.

Dai Huabin sprinkled salt on the meat while turning it over and grilling.

Lighting a fire and roasting meat on the outer edge of the Core Area of Star Dou Great Forest would be considered suicidal by any normal Soul Master.

The sense of smell of Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast is extremely sensitive; the aroma of roasted meat can travel for miles, which is equivalent to having a sign hanging on its head that says, "Come and eat me."

But Dai Huabin wasn't worried.

He carries the aura of Ice Empress.

As long as that trace of bloodline is activated, relying on the bloodline suppression of a 400,000-year -Ferocious Beast, ordinary Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast within a radius of several miles will not dare to approach.

And that is indeed the case.

On the day he entered the outer edge of the Core Area, almost all the Soul Beast along the way actively avoided him, even those that were ten thousand years old went around him.

So he felt very comfortable grilling it.

When the meat was about 70-80% cooked, Dai Huabin took off the first piece of thigh meat and took a bite.

It tastes good.

Although the seasonings were simple, the thigh meat itself was delicious.

He ate while thinking about his next plan.

It is still a tiger-type Soul Beast.

Just then, he sensed something.

To be precise, all the hairs on the back of my neck stood on end.

This feeling wasn't murderous intent or hostility, but a pure, instinctive alertness.

The meat in Dai Huabin's hand stopped in mid-air, and he hadn't swallowed the meat in his mouth yet.

He didn't turn around, but his mental power had already been fully unleashed.

The Eye of Life faintly glowed on its forehead, taking in and perceiving everything within a hundred meters.

About thirty meters behind him, a cat was perched on a branch of a giant tree.

Wrong.

The "cat" was entirely golden, its fur shimmering like liquid gold.

It is three to four times larger than an average domestic cat, with strong and powerful limbs, and its tail hangs leisurely under the tree branch, swaying gently.

There is a vertical eye in the very center of the forehead.

The vertical eye was slightly narrowed, staring intently at the roasted meat in Dai Huabin's hand.

Dai Huabin almost dropped the meat on the ground.

Ah?

This is Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

Dai Huabin's mind raced.

In the original novel, the storyline between the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and Huo Yuhao takes place after the Soul Master Tournament.

Because of Xuan Jin's forceful intervention, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and Huo Yuhao underwent Fate Connection.

Although Dai Huabin had been thinking about how to intercept this Fate Connection guide, he never expected to encounter the Three-Eyed Golden Lion today.

Dai Huabin slowly swallowed the roasted meat in his mouth.

Then he did something that even he found absurd: he picked up the remaining roast meat in his hand and waved it in the direction of the tree.

"Want some?"

The golden figure in the tree paused for a moment.

The vertical eye blinked, seemingly surprised that this human had discovered it, and that its first reaction wasn't to run, but to offer food.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion leaped down from the tree branch.

The landing was almost silent; its four golden claws stepped on the withered leaves without crushing a single one.

It walked gracefully to a spot five or six meters away from Dai Huabin and stopped.

Upon closer inspection, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion was even more beautiful than Dai Huabin had imagined.
