Golden Ranking Seventh Revealed! Bibi Dong's Shock!

Not far behind them.

Gu Yuena sat quietly upon a piece of warm, smooth jade, her exceptionally beautiful violet eyes flickering with an unusually intense light.

Another opportunity to observe the Sky Screen bestowing rewards at close range.

Gu Yuena pondered silently in her heart.

As long as she could clearly discern the trajectory of the Sky Screen's power, she was confident she could follow the trail to find the entity behind it.

Moreover, Bi Ji's increase in strength would be a tremendous boon for her.

Just as the fierce beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest were filled with anticipation.

High above in the firmament, the vast purple clouds rolled once more.

Several lines of massive golden text, carrying immense divine might, crashed into existence at the center of the Sky Screen.

[Soul Beast Ranking, 7th Place: Emerald Swan, Bi Ji.]

[Identity: Matriarch of the Emerald Swan clan of the Star Dou Great Forest, wife of the Beast God, Di Tian.]

Boom!

These few simple lines of text struck like a heavy hammer against the hearts of every human soul master.

The entire Douluo Continent fell into a deathly silence at that very moment.

A moment later.

The barrage of comments on the Sky Screen descended into a state of frantic chaos.

"Holy crap! Di Tian's wife?!"

"The Beast God Di Tian, whose name has already echoed across the continent even though his ranking hasn't been announced yet—he really is a soul beast from the Star Dou Great Forest!"

"My god, the foundation of the Star Dou Great Forest is just too terrifying, isn't it?"

"Martial Soul Hall used to claim to be the strongest power on the continent, but compared to these old monsters hidden in the Star Dou Great Forest, they're nothing!"

"Exactly! A Di Tian, a Bi Ji, plus the Nine Heavens Demon Eye Holy Tree King of Ten Thousand Demons and the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Xiong Jun... this Star Dou Great Forest is going to defy the heavens!"

Martial Soul Hall.

Inside the Pope Palace.

In the dimly lit hall, Bibi Dong sat upright upon the throne that symbolized supreme power.

Previously.

Seeing that Xiong Jun was only ranked ninth and the King of Ten Thousand Demons eighth.

Bibi Dong had even begun calculating how to hunt down that injured Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

After all, the soul ring and soul bone of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear clan were an irresistible temptation for any soul master.

But now.

Looking at the lines of information popping up on the Sky Screen, Bibi Dong was left stunned on her throne.

Her long, fair fingers gripped her scepter so tightly that her knuckles turned slightly white.

"Star Dou Great Forest... how could it possibly be this powerful?"

Bibi Dong muttered in disbelief.

She had originally thought that the Star Dou Great Forest only contained the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, two hundred-thousand-year soul beasts that Martial Soul Hall could claim whenever they wished.

But now it seemed.

Those two so-called Kings of the Forest weren't even fit to carry the shoes of these truly terrifying existences!

To the side of the hall, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan turned pale, his voice trembling as he asked:

"Your Excellency, our plan to hunt that Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear... should we perhaps put it on hold?"

Bibi Dong closed her eyes and took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the surging emotions within her.

A moment later, she slowly opened her eyes, a glimmer of resolve shining within them.

"No, the plan remains unchanged."

"Although this Di Tian is the master of the Star Dou Great Forest, according to the information I have obtained, Xiong Jun and Di Tian have always been at odds."

"As long as we act quickly enough to kill Xiong Jun before Di Tian can react, Di Tian would not launch an all-out war against our Martial Soul Hall for the sake of a dead rebel."

Speaking of this, Bibi Dong's gaze fell upon the name of the King of Ten Thousand Demons.

"And that King of Ten Thousand Demons... the Top-Grade Immortal Spirit Grass he obtained is absolutely a rare, peerless divine object."

"Such an immortal herb must have immense utility for our soul masters' second martial souls."

"If there is an opportunity, we shall take down the King of Ten Thousand Demons as well and seize his immortal herb!"

Bibi Dong's words were filled with undisguised ambition and greed.

Just as the entire continent was reeling from the shock of the relationship between Di Tian and Bi Ji.

The image on the Sky Screen shifted once more.

A colossal phantom of an Emerald Swan slowly coalesced in the firmament, radiating a sacred and inviolable majesty.

Immediately following.

The Sky Screen began to reveal the characteristics of the Emerald Swan race.

[Race Trait: The Emerald Swan is the supreme being among healing-type soul beasts. The life energy within its body is pure, devoid of even the slightest impurity.]

[Precisely because of this, the Emerald Swan possesses almost no offensive capabilities during its growth phase. Its flesh, blood, and Soul Power are the ultimate longevity-extending tonics for any soul beast or soul master.]

Upon seeing these lines.

The entire human soul master world turned bloodshot with greed in an instant.

"No offensive capabilities?"

"The life energy within its body is a longevity-extending tonic for all living things?"

"My god, isn't this just a walking hundred-thousand-year ginseng fruit?"

"If one could capture even a single one, wouldn't that mean living for an extra hundred years, or perhaps even defying fate itself?"

Countless reclusive old monsters whose lifespans were nearing their end found their breathing becoming heavy, their eyes filled with frantic greed.

"But... how did such a unique and fragile soul beast manage to live for six hundred thousand years?"

In the barrage of comments, someone raised the question.

In that world of soul beasts where the law of the jungle prevailed and brutal slaughter occurred every day, for a soul beast with zero combat power that was essentially a walking treasure trove to survive was nothing short of a miracle among miracles!

The image on the Sky Screen seemed to respond to the world's confusion; it flickered slightly and began to play Bi Ji's growth journey.

It was an extremely ancient Star Dou Great Forest.

In the image, Bi Ji was then only a petite white swan, her age not even reaching ten thousand years.

However.

In that ancient era of heaven-shattering, earth-rending conflict, where soul beasts suffered countless casualties over territory.

This little swan dragged her exhausted body, flying across battlefield after battlefield.

She used her purest life energy, transforming it into showers of green light, silently healing those soul beasts on the brink of death.

In the images.

Among those who had received her grace were a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear that had not yet matured and had been severely wounded by enemies.

There was a Demon Eye Demon Tree whose roots had been severed under a heavenly tribulation, leaving it at death's door.

There were even countless ordinary, low-tier soul beasts.

Scene after scene flashed by, each one showing Bi Ji saving lives without asking for anything in return.

Above the Sky Screen, several lines of text glowing with a faint golden light slowly appeared.

[Bi Ji's own cultivation base has, in fact, never even reached one hundred thousand years.]

[Because of her great compassion, she has saved countless powerful beings in the Star Dou Great Forest over tens of thousands of years.]

[Every soul beast that has received her grace voluntarily stripped away a portion of their own cultivation to merge into Bi Ji's body, which is what forcibly pushed her age to the terrifying height of six hundred thousand years.]

[In the Star Dou Great Forest, Bi Ji's status is unparalleled. Even if the Beast God Di Tian issues an order, there are soul beasts that would dare to defy it, but as long as Bi Ji speaks, the billions of soul beasts in the entire forest would fight to the death for her.]
