Ultimate Wood, Ultimate Fire

Half an hour later.

Three figures passed through layers of thick tree crowns and finally landed slowly.

When Chu Feng saw the scene before him, he was struck by the beauty of the place.

What appeared before him was a small lake, visible from end to end. The water was as smooth as a mirror, a pale green hue like the finest natural emerald, shimmering with a vibrant, life-filled light. Surrounding the lake, towering ancient trees reached into the clouds. A faint mist hung over the water, and the humid air rushed toward him, carrying the unique fragrance of plants.

However, these were not the main points.

The point was that Chu Feng could sense a dense aura of life here; its vitality was at least several times stronger than the outside world! It was as if this were the origin of life itself, where every living creature in the Star Dou Great Forest seemed to have been conceived. The place was saturated with the essence of the laws of heaven and earth. It felt as though even the slightest sound would shatter its peace and beauty.

"Welcome to the paradise of soul beasts—the Lake of Life, also known as the Great Fierce Land by the soul beasts of the outer perimeter and humans alike." Three-Eyed Golden Lion walked to Chu Feng's side, letting out a giggle as crisp as silver bells.

Seeing Chu Feng lost in thought, Di Tian felt a touch of pride and satisfaction in his eyes. He spoke slowly, "Little one, the water you see is the most sacred Water of Life. This lake has existed for over a million years. It can be said that it nurtured all life in the Star Dou Great Forest; it is a miracle of the entire Douluo Continent!"

"Indeed, with such a rich aura of life, it must be truly blissful to live here~" Chu Feng took a deep breath and smiled faintly.

However, his gaze remained fixed beneath the water, as if trying to discern something. After all, he knew that the Silver Dragon King was healing beneath this Lake of Life. Furthermore, there was a vast amount of Life Gold at the bottom of the lake—now that was a real treasure...

Just then, Chu Feng sensed several terrifying auras approaching rapidly.

"It really is the aura of an Auspicious Beast..."

"A second Auspicious Beast, how is this possible..."

"A black and white bear? Is this thing an Auspicious Beast??"

"What kind of creature is this?"

A series of surprised voices rang out. Chu Feng turned his head and saw that four unfamiliar figures had appeared behind Di Tian.

A dark golden giant bear over ten meters tall stood there, covered in a thick, heavy layer of dark golden fur. Its arms were exceptionally long, hanging down past its knees despite its massive frame. Its entire body radiated a violent aura, yet its gaze toward Chu Feng was filled with curiosity.

Beside it stood a large crimson dog. Its three massive heads, topped with swelling red-gold fur, each resembled a lion. It was the Three-Headed Scarlet Demon Mastiff, Scarlet King.

Beyond that was a beautiful, giant swan. Its emerald eyes radiated a captivating charm; this must be the Emerald Swan, Bi Ji.

The last one was a middle-aged man. His appearance was not particularly handsome, his complexion slightly sallow, and his cyan eyes were filled with an eerie, supernatural light. He was not very tall but possessed a slender build. He wore a dark green robe that fluttered without wind, his hair of the same color trailing behind him in the same manner.

This person was the only plant-type soul beast among the Ten Great Fierce Beasts—the Demon Eye Demon Tree, Wan Yao Wang.

Seeing these four great fierce beasts, Chu Feng felt a sense of wonder.

He had not expected his arrival to attract the attention of so many big shots.

Any one of them could stir up a storm of blood in the outside world, yet here they were, all gathered for him.

Aside from his bloodline as an Auspicious Beast, his Luck talent had also played a significant role.

Before Chu Feng could collect his thoughts, the system's notification sounded again.

[You shocked Xiong Jun, your strength increased by 2 times.]
[You shocked Wan Yao Wang, you obtained "Ultimate Wood Core".]
[You shocked Bi Ji, you obtained "Human Transformation Card".]
[You shocked Scarlet King, you obtained "Ultimate Fire Core".]
[Human Transformation Card: After transformation, cultivation can be converted into soul power and soul rings, and bloodline aura is completely concealed.]

The string of notifications left Chu Feng's head spinning; he hadn't quite processed it all.

The Shock System was truly generous. With these rewards, even a pig could take flight.

The last item, the "Human Transformation Card," was particularly important to Chu Feng. After all, soul beasts had to start their cultivation from scratch after transforming, and an Auspicious Beast was no exception.

With this reward, he could rapidly increase his strength after transforming.

"Hee hee hee~"

"Chu Feng, welcome to our big family~"

"This is Xiong Jun, this is Sister Bi Ji, and there are Scarlet King and Wan Yao Wang~"

Seeing Chu Feng dazed, Three-Eyed Golden Lion assumed he was socially anxious and hurriedly ran over to introduce them.

Chu Feng snapped out of his trance, quickly bowed his paws toward Xiong Jun and the others, and said, "Little one Chu Feng, greets all seniors."

"Hahaha! Little one, no need for such formalities."

"You possess the bloodline of an Auspicious Beast; your status is no lower than this Seat's~"

"Besides, you carry the bloodline of my clan; you and I are quite fated~"

Seeing this, Xiong Jun burst into laughter, the terrifying sound waves causing the air to tremble.

He had found it incredible the moment he saw Chu Feng; no one would have expected the black and white bear clan to give birth to an Auspicious Beast.

But since the other was truly an Auspicious Beast, it was only natural to build a good relationship, as an Auspicious Beast would be of great help to him in breaking through his life limit in the future.

"Damn it, Xiong Jun, have you no shame? You can even stretch it to being the same clan???"

Scarlet King was shocked by Xiong Jun's shamelessness and looked at him with disdain.

"How is it not the same clan? A black and white bear is a bear, and a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear is a bear. What is wrong with us both flowing with the blood of the bear clan!" Xiong Jun argued loudly.

"You motherf..." Scarlet King was left speechless; he had never seen such a thick-skinned bear in his life.

"Alright, stop arguing, you'll scare him~"

"The little guy is quite cute~"

Bi Ji smiled as she smoothed things over. She was captivated by Chu Feng's talent, Cute Act, and her gaze was filled with affection as she looked at him, finding him more pleasing the longer she stared.

Wan Yao Wang also watched Chu Feng with his dark green eyes, feeling a strong sense of favor toward him.

At this moment, Di Tian slowly rose to his feet and spoke: "Everyone, the fact that two Auspicious Beast have appeared within the soul beast clan simultaneously signals that our rise is at hand! From this day forward, Chu Feng's status shall be equal to our own, and he shall enjoy the same treatment as the Three-Eyed Golden Lion!"

"As you command!"

Upon hearing this, Xiong Jun and the others were all fired up!

With the blessing of two Auspicious Beast, the fortune of the entire Star Dou Great Forest would reach an unimaginable level, providing immense aid to both the cultivation of soul beasts and their ability to break through their lifespans!

The rise of the soul beasts was just around the corner!

Just like that, Chu Feng successfully joined the core circle of the Star Dou Great Forest, officially gaining the recognition and protection of all the soul beasts.
