The Sea God's Olive Branch!

Liu Feng's limbs gradually lengthened, and his hair grew longer, deepening in color until it resembled golden silk under the sunlight.

His features, which had softened due to the onset of night, underwent subtle adjustments, gaining a touch of sharpness.

If one had assumed he was a girl at a single glance before, he now looked more like his daytime form, only grown older.

He appeared to be about fourteen or fifteen years old, possessing a handsomeness that could captivate both men and women alike.

"Liu Feng has grown bigger..."

Three-Eyed Golden Lion opened her mouth, her face full of bewilderment.

She gently licked Liu Feng's cheek, thought for a moment, and added, "He doesn't taste any different! Still smells delicious!"

Scarlet King raised a claw and lightly tapped Liu Feng's body, exclaiming in surprise:

"His body has become even stronger! Even a thousand-year soul beast probably wouldn't compare to him!"

Although Liu Feng was not human and possessed a stronger physique, he had previously been unable to match a soul beast.

Yet now, his strength had increased significantly!

This was far too abnormal!

However, there were no ominous signs of danger regarding Liu Feng.

"Liu Feng... Liu Feng..."

Three-Eyed Golden Lion lowered her damp nose and gently nudged Liu Feng's face.

Scarlet King also watched Liu Feng with anticipation, sitting honestly opposite him like a large dog.

"Mm..."

Liu Feng's long eyelashes fluttered gently, and he opened his eyes.

A pair of violet eyes, soul-stirring and captivating, instantly seized the attention of the two fierce beasts.

In an instant, they both seemed to sink into this indescribable beauty.

An elf was a beautiful creature that seemed to have been crafted by the very essence of heaven and earth.

It was not just humans; even soul beasts of different species could perceive the beauty within him.

"Slurp, slurp...!"

Without a word, Three-Eyed Golden Lion lunged forward again, extending her tongue to smear saliva all over Liu Feng's face.

"Stop licking..."

Liu Feng hurriedly pushed Three-Eyed Golden Lion away, nearly drowning in her affection.

"Liu Feng, you are so beautiful..."

Three-Eyed Golden Lion widened her eyes, as if she wanted to tuck Liu Feng inside them.

Scarlet King also remarked, "You are even more beautiful than the most stunning Scarlet Demon Mastiff in our clan!"

"..."

Liu Feng looked at the two fellows helplessly.

He touched his lengthened wrists; during his recent unconsciousness, he had actually been able to perceive the changes in the outside world.

The reason for this transformation was the Sprite Dragon!

While the Sprite Dragon was devouring the soul power of Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, it had been absorbing energy for itself while simultaneously remodeling Liu Feng's body.

Coincidentally, due to the anomaly of his soul, Liu Feng existed in two states.

It had simply remodeled the nighttime Liu Feng, giving him the appearance of a twelve or thirteen-year-old.

Of course, his physical attributes would not change based on his state.

Liu Feng felt the explosive power surging within his body; he reckoned he could kill a cow with a single punch!

In short, it was a positive change!

With a thought, a purple ball of light appeared above Liu Feng's head.

Faintly, a "thump-thump" sound could be heard, resembling a heartbeat.

The Sprite Dragon was about to hatch!

Liu Feng did not yet know what species his Sprite Dragon would be, or what abilities it might bring.

However, he was certainly looking forward to it.

"Liu Feng, Liu Feng, look at this! I snatched it from that good-for-nothing!"

Three-Eyed Golden Lion tossed a cicada-wing-thin insect molt to Liu Feng.

Liu Feng's eyes brightened slightly, "This is a treasure!"

The remains of a million-year soul beast!

It possessed the property of malleability and could change into various forms using mental power.

In the original story, this was the reliance Sky Dream Ice Silkworm gave to Huo Yuhao for his journey to the Far North.

It could serve as thermal underwear for Huo Yuhao, masquerade as the true form of the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, and in the end, even trap the Ice Empress.

Its rarity was evident!

"Then I'll give it to you!"

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion said happily at once.

Liu Feng patted the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's fluffy, oversized head.

Scarlet King gave a dry cough, "We should head back now; we'll collect all the Brocade Chickens on the way."

"Also, Auspicious Beast, no matter what, you let the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm go. Think about how you're going to explain it to Di Tian when we get back."

Scarlet King stood up and offered a reminder.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion was carefree and didn't take it to heart at all.

"Thump, thump, thump...!"

Just then, the sound of soul beasts stampeding echoed from the distance.

The beast tide triggered by the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had not yet ceased!

The soul power it had unleashed at the very end was like a natural medicinal treasure.

Scarlet King led Liu Feng and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion back to the core area without incident.

It was already late at night, and the moonlight was bright, reflecting a large, round jade plate upon the surface of the lake.

The Scorpion Tiger was still fast asleep beneath the treehouse, its aura of soul power having increased by several thousand years!

Had it not been in a deep slumber, it would have pounced on Liu Feng the moment it saw him return.

As soon as Liu Feng landed, he caught the scent of Di Tian and the other fierce beasts.

They simply hadn't revealed themselves, but they were nearby.

He couldn't help but gently stroke the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, feeling somewhat worried that she might be punished.

After all, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm could be considered a piece of "family" property.

And it had been lost because the Three-Eyed Golden Lion wanted to give it to Liu Feng.

"Di Tian..."

Scarlet King suddenly lowered his three heads toward the front.

Di Tian appeared out of thin air and nodded at them slightly.

"I saw what happened after the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm left. Since Liu Feng gained something from it, it isn't really a loss."

As he spoke, Di Tian grabbed Liu Feng's shoulder and quickly checked him over.

Only after confirming there were no issues did he release his grip.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion tilted her head back, looking very proud.

"I told you, letting Liu Feng devour that trash was the best use for it!"

A warmth spread through Liu Feng's heart; he could tell that Di Tian wasn't lying and truly didn't care about the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's escape.

This also meant that Di Tian had accepted him as one of their "own."

"Eat roasted chicken! Roasted chicken!"

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion's large tail suddenly patted Liu Feng's head, urging him on excitedly.

Liu Feng gave a firm nod and followed her as she ran toward the lakeside.

Once they were further away, Bi Ji and the other fierce beasts appeared one after another.

Bi Ji breathed a sigh of relief, a smile appearing on her face.

"Liu Feng is a good child..."

Zi Ji nodded in agreement, hugging her slender shoulders, her vertical pupils shimmering with an inexplicable light. "That's right, he's become even more beautiful; I like him!"

Bi Ji's expression stiffened, and she cast a wary glance at Zi Ji.

The other fierce beasts couldn't help but marvel, becoming increasingly amazed by Liu Feng's species.

Di Tian said calmly, "More than that, he is a child with talent. We find it difficult to become gods, but what about Liu Feng? If he were human, he would certainly become a god."

"!!!"

The gazes of all the fierce beasts converged upon Di Tian.

Becoming a god—this was the thing they dreamed of most!

Di Tian continued, "If we can nurture Liu Feng into a god, perhaps... he will become the hope that breaks the predicament of the soul beasts."

Once these words were spoken, the fierce beasts all realized the importance of Liu Feng.

As they looked back at Liu Feng, who was busy roasting fish, their gazes held even more fervor.

They had all heard of an event that took place ten thousand years ago.

Sea God Tang San had two brothers-in-law who, having sacrificed themselves to him by accident, had their physical bodies reshaped after he attained godhood, rising to the heavens on his coattails.

One had to realize that those two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts were actually their juniors!

If only they could also cultivate a Sea God Tang San of their own...

They chatted excitedly about their cultivation plan.

Yet neither of them noticed that Liu Feng had quietly fallen asleep, as a blue strand of divine consciousness descended from the sky and drifted into his mind.
