Along the way, Qian Yufeng did not see any signs of Fallen Spirit Masters causing trouble.

The villagers lived quite well, and every person wore a smile on their face.

It was unlike the situation when he had once led expeditions to suppress Fallen Spirit Masters; back then, people's faces were filled with sorrow and trepidation.

Even with Spirit Hall guards stationed around the villages, those Fallen Spirit Masters had been fearless enough to launch suicidal charges.

This was likely due to changes in current policies and living standards; productivity had increased, and the Heaven Dou Empire had relaxed taxes on the commoners under their rule while placing significant restrictions on the nobility.

Many children from commoner families had a higher chance of awakening innate spirit power now that their living conditions had improved.

However, within the areas governed by Spirit Hall, many families lived even better than the commoners of the Heaven Dou Empire, and most of their children were spirit masters.

"We're almost at the Star Dou Great Forest. It's been quite a few years since I last came here!" Qian Yufeng felt the air growing increasingly humid and smiled.

Qian Lingxin said, "Family Head, if I recall correctly, it has been at least twenty years."

"The last time you came to the Star Dou Great Forest, you were still the leader of the team hunting down Fallen Spirit Masters. After you stepped down, you spent your days fishing."

She left a thought unsaid: You have fished for so many years, yet the number of your catches could still be counted on one's fingers.

Qian Yufeng wore a look of nostalgia and said, "Hmm, to be precise, it has been twenty-eight years."

When that leader of the Fallen Spirit Masters entered the Star Dou Great Forest, it should have been like looking for a needle in a haystack for Qian Yufeng and his team.

Unfortunately for the culprit, at a critical moment, he had noticed something strange about the Blue Silver Grass on the ground.

In the end, by following the special markings on the Blue Silver Grass, he had managed to kill the guy.

Qian Yufeng only just remembered that there was a super-positioning master residing in the Star Dou Great Forest.

The Blue Silver Emperor!

Ninety-nine percent of the corners of the Star Dou Great Forest could not escape her sight.

The aura of a Fallen Spirit Master would indeed cause most spirit beasts to avoid them.

After all, back then, many Fallen Spirit Masters had wantonly slaughtered low-year spirit beasts for cultivation, turning the outer perimeter of the Star Dou Great Forest into a foul, chaotic mess.

If Spirit Hall hadn't suppressed them, many spirit beast tribes would likely have gone extinct by now.

Even so, the Star Dou Great Forest would still trigger a beast tide every so often.

It was just that the interval between them had been extended by about ten years.

"A-Feng, you all say this forest is the place where the most spirit beasts on the continent gather."

"The aura of hundred-thousand-year spirit beasts doesn't seem as abundant as it is in the ocean!"

A-Luo sat on the carriage table, staring at Qian Yufeng with wide eyes.

"The area of the Star Dou Great Forest is naturally not as large as the ocean!"

"Even the entire area of the continent is not as large as the ocean!"

"However, one cannot judge everything by appearances. The Star Dou Great Forest has a long history; perhaps there are spirit beasts we don't know about!"

Qian Yufeng told A-Luo that it was truly difficult to compare the two.

The Star Dou Great Forest contained the most fierce beasts on the continent; if you picked any one of them out (excluding Bi Ji), they would basically be capable of slaughtering everything.

The Beast God Di Tian possessed a terrifying cultivation of over eight hundred thousand years; even the nine-hundred-ninety-thousand-year-old Deep Sea Demon Whale King could not be said to be a guaranteed winner against him on land.

Currently, these fierce beasts were living in seclusion beneath the Life Lake, concealing their auras, so naturally, A-Luo could not perceive them.

The hundred-thousand-year spirit beasts currently in the Star Dou Great Forest were: the Azure Bull Python, the Titan Giant Ape, two Soft Bone Rabbits, and the Blue Silver Emperor.

"Oh!" A-Luo nodded as if she understood, though she was also puzzled in her heart—the ocean's history was also quite ancient, why didn't you mention that?

The group arrived at the knight order stationed on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest. After alighting from the carriage, Qian Yufeng revealed his identity directly.

The commander of the knight order here had also met Qian Yufeng before, so naturally, he dared not be negligent.

Qian Yufeng did not enter their military camp, but simply requested that they take good care of the carriage.

After giving these instructions, the three of them entered the Star Dou Great Forest.

Towering trees and sunlight filtering through the gaps in the leaves... these formed the most common scenery here.

Of course, there was a lot of inconspicuous Blue Silver Grass growing on the ground.

No one would have ever thought that among these seemingly ordinary blades of Blue Silver Grass, a top-tier existence had emerged.

Qian Yufeng looked at the trees ahead, then lowered his head to glance at the Blue Silver Grass, a smile appearing on his face.

This was to send a signal to the other party that he had come to find her.

Sure enough, after Qian Yufeng looked up, the Blue Silver Emperor received the information.

She had learned a lot of knowledge from the human world, and this smile from Qian Yufeng was akin to a greeting or a notification.

What does he want with me? The Blue Silver Emperor was very puzzled.

Assisting him in dealing with the Fallen Spirit Masters back then had been for the sake of the stability of the Star Dou Great Forest.

But that had also made the man aware of her existence, though he had never caused her any trouble.

So many years had passed; what was the purpose of this human man suddenly coming to find her?

The Blue Silver Emperor held a great deal of wariness toward humans, yet she had collected quite a bit of information on Qian Yufeng.

He had only been to the Star Dou Great Forest ten times; seven were to obtain spirit rings, and three were to hunt down Fallen Spirit Masters.

He had never once engaged in the indiscriminate slaughter of spirit beasts; on the contrary, he even forbade the casual hunting of weak spirit beasts.

The beast tides were special circumstances and did not count.

She did not know if it was just her imagination, but she felt that Qian Yufeng was trying to seek a path for spirit beasts and humans to coexist.

After thinking it over repeatedly, the Blue Silver Emperor prepared to meet him.

Back on Qian Yufeng's side, the three of them radiated their aura, causing ordinary spirit beasts to avoid them, fleeing far away.

Moving at a steady, unhurried pace, Qian Yufeng simply waited for the Blue Silver Emperor to give him a reply.

A-Luo also hovered in the air, curiously observing the surrounding environment.

"There are many spirit beasts here, but their auras are very weak; they are no match for A-Feng."

"In the ocean, they would just be A-Luo's food!"

After walking for ten minutes, A-Luo began to feel a bit bored.

"A-Feng, are you looking for something?" She landed on Qian Yufeng's shoulder; such a slow pace did not seem like something he would normally do.

"Mm, A-Luo is truly clever. We should have an answer soon," Qian Yufeng smiled.

Once he finished speaking, he began to observe the changes in the Blue Silver Grass. These blades of grass had formed arrows, pointing the way in a specific direction.

"She has given an answer. Follow me."

With that, he began to lead the way, heading toward the territory of the Blue Silver Emperor.

Thirty minutes later, they arrived at a gathering place of Blue Silver Grass.

The Blue Silver Grass growing here was different from what they had seen before; a small number of the blades possessed pale golden veins.

Qian Lingxin sensed a powerful aura in the grass ahead and instantly became alert.

Qian Yufeng, however, looked relaxed. He said to the two women, "There is no need to be so tense; she has no ill intent."

A-Luo wanted to fly higher to see what was ahead, but the dense Blue Silver Grass made it difficult for her to perceive the other party's aura.

"Elder Qian, I wonder what business you have with me, coming here to find me?"

A gap opened in the thicket formed by the Blue Silver Grass ahead, and a woman with blue hair and blue eyes, carrying an air of nobility, slowly walked out.

Her eyes held a hint of curiosity as she looked at Qian Yufeng and his companions.
