A green light surged upward, shielding Liu Feng within.

Bi Ji appeared beside Liu Feng, her expression helpless as she shook her head slightly.

"With the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm gone, they have all become restless."

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion hopped over as well, her small claws pawing at the ground restlessly, eager for action.

Liu Feng asked in confusion, "What are they trying to do?"

"To be your teachers."

A deep voice resonated.

Di Tian hovered in mid-air, appearing in human form, looking incredibly small amidst the gathering of Great Beasts.

"All of you, stop."

As his voice fell, the Great Beasts quieted down; despite their mutual hostility, they ultimately ceased their attacks.

Di Tian descended beside Liu Feng and nodded at him slightly.

"You have already grasped the laws and awakened your spiritual essence. By drawing parallels, you can gain insights from the innate soul skills and domains of other Great Beasts."

"Since they have nothing better to do, they shall all serve as your teachers."

Di Tian said indifferently.

Liu Feng scratched his head. Learning from these Great Beasts?

It seemed... the feasibility was actually quite high!

With his affinity for the world, his exceptional comprehension, and the Great Beasts as references, as long as he was given time, he could definitely derive some self-created skills!

And their power would certainly be immense!

"Alright! I agree!"

Liu Feng nodded in acceptance.

Di Tian grunted, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly.

"Who do you wish to learn with first?"

The moment his question was asked.

The gazes of all the Great Beasts converged upon Liu Feng.

To teach Liu Feng meant being able to get close to him, and the benefits were simply too great!

Seeing Bi Ji and Zi Ji sleeping with Liu Feng at night had made all the other Great Beasts green with envy!

"Of course, it's Big Sister Bi Ji."

Liu Feng answered without hesitation.

A faint smile appeared on Bi Ji's face as she draped an arm over Liu Feng's shoulder.

"I will teach you the true meaning of life."

With a flash of purple light, Zi Ji transformed from her Demon Dragon state into human form and landed on Liu Feng's other side.

She pinched Liu Feng's cheek and giggled:

"Little Liu Feng, then the second teacher shall be me!"

The Great Beasts were immediately displeased, each of them ready to revolt again.

"On what grounds?!"

"I refuse to accept this! Zi Ji, you are always cheating!"

"..."

Zi Ji immediately retorted fiercely, "What are you bunch of idiots squawking about? Can't Little Liu Feng like me?!"

Di Tian rubbed his temples and waved his hand at Bi Ji.

Bi Ji quickly took Liu Feng away from the area.

The moment they left, as Zi Ji reverted to her Demon Dragon form and spat a mouthful of flames onto Lord Bear's chest, the great battle between the beasts began once more!

Bi Ji's teaching location was not in the core area, but at a lake in the inner region.

A green light descended, bringing Liu Feng and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion with it.

They looked around curiously.

On the lake, over thirty Emerald Swans were floating on the water, their slender necks held high or tucked into their wings, radiating an aura of peace and tranquility.

Around the lake, a group of different species of soul beasts stayed together in harmony.

There were even soul beasts that were natural predators of one another in the outside world, yet they were able to coexist peacefully here!

This was the clan of the Emerald Swans, the most benevolent soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest!

Bi Ji smiled and said, "Almost every day, soul beasts come here seeking help. Xiao Feng, just watch how they treat those injured soul beasts."

Liu Feng nodded, just about to speak.

Some soul beasts also noticed their arrival.

Those with intelligence would bow their heads toward Bi Ji to greet her.

At this moment, a group of Streamer Peacocks, dragging long cyan tails, swayed their bodies as they walked toward this side.

Bi Ji introduced, "Streamer Peacocks are incredibly beautiful and very rare. They possess magnificent tail feathers, which leads some greedy humans to hunt them."

"Because Streamer Peacocks are extremely vain and have difficulty reproducing, I can only take them in here to prevent their extinction."

Bi Ji sighed; this was the plight of soul beasts.

Liu Feng fell silent. He feared no one knew that the situation for soul beasts would only get worse in the future.

Since he had received the protection of the soul beasts, he would certainly do his best to preserve them.

Just then, that group of Streamer Peacocks stopped in front of him.

Both Bi Ji and Liu Feng were puzzled. The intelligence of Streamer Peacocks was limited; could they really have come to pay respects to Bi Ji?

The next second, several Streamer Peacocks spread their long tail feathers, forming magnificent, colorful screens.

The ends of the tail feathers featured iridescent, eye-shaped patterns—sky blue, blue-green, bronze... circles of varying widths, layered and distinct, looking extremely beautiful.

A few other Streamer Peacocks that couldn't spread their tails began to perform a "dance" on the spot.

Liu Feng and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion were both stunned, admiring this beautiful scene.

Bi Ji, however, had a strange expression on her face and let out a laugh.

"What is it? Sister Bi Ji...?"

Liu Feng asked, puzzled.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion also looked at her, while glancing at the dancing Streamer Peacocks.

They were so beautiful that even she wanted to learn!

Her body also began to sway gently in imitation.

Bi Ji covered her mouth and chuckled, "Xiao Feng, spreading their tails and dancing are courtship displays for the Streamer Peacocks, but they only do this for beautiful members of their own kind."

"Sometimes, if their kin aren't beautiful enough, they would rather remain alone for life than choose a mate."

"I was worried that these Streamer Peacocks hadn't been courting; I wondered if..."

Before Bi Ji could finish her sentence, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion beside her bristled.

"Roar...!!!"

She lunged at the Streamer Peacocks in a rage, her fierce aura spreading.

Without mercy, she bit down directly, aiming for the neck of one of the Streamer Peacocks!

"Auspicious Beast, no!"

Bi Ji hurriedly raised a green barrier to protect the Streamer Peacock.

The other Streamer Peacocks also shrieked in terror and scattered in flight.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion still wanted to chase the others.

Bi Ji hurriedly picked her up and said angrily:

"Auspicious Beast! If you hurt the soul beasts here, I won't welcome you anymore!"

"..."

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion trembled with rage.

"Why are you angry at the Streamer Peacocks? They were showing off their beauty, and weren't you just enjoying it a moment ago?"

Bi Ji persuaded helplessly.

"!!!"

Hearing this, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion was so angry she nearly puffed up like a ball, the vertical eye on her forehead flashing with a sharp light.

Bi Ji hurriedly wrapped her in soul power to prevent her from attacking again.

Liu Feng patted the tail of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, "Stop making a scene, I still have to study! When we go back tonight, I'll roast a Brocade Chicken for you."

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion finally began to calm down.

"Those ugly, motley-feathered chickens! Get lost!"

Bi Ji shook her head, speechless. After giving the Three-Eyed Golden Lion a few more instructions and ensuring she wouldn't truly harm the Streamer Peacocks, she took Liu Feng's hand and walked to the lakeside.

She explained Liu Feng's situation to her kin.

The Emerald Swans all liked the aura on Liu Feng; it felt very close to them.

One by one, they bent their necks, affectionately nudging Liu Feng.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion paced back and forth nearby, baring her teeth at the Emerald Swans from time to time, the flames beneath her feet nearly covering half her body.

"Liu Feng, we Emerald Swans possess life attributes that approach the ultimate, and we have an affinity for the laws of life. When they heal the soul beasts, you must observe carefully..."

Bi Ji gave her instructions while keeping a wary eye on the dangerous individual beside her.

Liu Feng let out a grunt and nodded.

Suddenly, he caught the scent of an incredibly rich aura of life!

Deep within his heart, two impulses began to sprout simultaneously!

One came from the Sprite Dragon about to break out of its shell.

The other originated from the depths of his own mind.

Liu Feng turned his head to look, and at the edge of the woods, a turtle-type soul beast that looked as if it had been cast from solid gold was crawling toward them.

A Golden Hawksbill!

It also came to a halt, staring right at Liu Feng!
