Sever His Limbs and Destroy Yu Xiaogang's Seed Pouch!

The unusual behavior of Her Holiness the Pope left the two elders, Ghost and Chrysanthemum, who were waiting outside the carriage, feeling quite bewildered.

Since when had Her Holiness become so attentive toward a child?

Or rather, had Her Holiness already "conquered" this little boy?!

At this thought, Ghost and Chrysanthemum exchanged glances and simultaneously made a gesture to keep quiet.

If Her Holiness were to learn of such speculation, they would likely be exiled to the Extreme North to preach.

For the sake of their own safety, they absolutely must not let their imaginations run wild.

The two elders reached a silent consensus: they must never again speculate about matters concerning Her Holiness.

The consequences of doing so were far too severe; neither of them could bear the weight of it.

"Let's go. To the Star Dou Forest."

Her Holiness's voice drifted out from within the carriage, sounding somewhat languid.

"As you command, Your Holiness! We are departing at once!"

Ghost and Chrysanthemum dared not show the slightest bit of negligence. They immediately flicked the reins, steering the thousand-year spirit beast, the Great Strength Ox-Horse, forward at a gallop.

As the place with the richest spirit beast resources on the Douluo Continent, the Star Dou Forest was home to a vast array of rare and exotic creatures.

The Bee Poison King Spider that Lin Tian had read about in the Library Pavilion lived in the marshy areas on the outskirts of the Star Dou Forest, and this location was the specific destination of their trip.

This area was about five or six hundred miles away from Spirit Hall. If they were in an ordinary carriage, it would likely take three or four days, but the carriage they were currently riding in was the exclusive vehicle of the Spirit Hall Pope.

In just over half a day, they would be able to reach the outskirts of the Star Dou Forest.

"Lin Tian, to obtain a spirit ring, you must personally hunt the spirit beast yourself for it to be successful. You must remember this clearly."

Inside the carriage, Bibi Dong parted her crimson lips slightly, whispering instructions to Lin Tian.

"When absorbing a spirit ring, you may face a backlash from the spirit beast's soul. Do not be afraid; just absorb it boldly. If you can kill its physical body, you can certainly destroy its soul!"

"Besides, you have me by your side. I will certainly not let anything happen to you."

Bibi Dong patted Lin Tian's little head, explaining all the precautions for absorbing a spirit ring in meticulous detail. Her thoroughness left Lin Tian feeling somewhat overwhelmed by such favor.

Throughout the journey, Bibi Dong patiently explained the knowledge of spirit power cultivation and how one should practice it in daily life.

This detailed explanation made Ghost and Chrysanthemum feel as though Her Holiness's temperament had undergone a complete transformation—something that would have been utterly impossible before.

With the incredible speed of the Great Strength Ox-Horse, after about an hour, the group arrived at the Star Dou Forest, which was filled with the roars of beasts and the cries of apes.

Listening to the roars of giant beasts in the dense forest not far away, Lin Tian felt an inexplicable sense of tension rise within him.

Although he had successfully completed his spirit awakening, he was still just a little brat who couldn't even protect himself.

If he wasn't careful and cautious after entering this place, death would be the only thing awaiting him!

"Your Holiness, we have arrived at the Star Dou Forest!"

Ghost and Chrysanthemum stood respectfully outside the carriage, softly signaling to Her Holiness that they had reached their destination.

"Thank you for your trouble, Elders!"

Inside the carriage, Bibi Dong spoke in a languid tone.

Immediately after, a fragrant breeze swept by. Bibi Dong wiped the water droplets from her cheeks and appeared before the two elders with a slightly flushed face.

"I truly never expected that one day, I, Bibi Dong, would set foot in the Star Dou Forest again. It is as lively as ever in here!"

"Lin Tian, get out of the carriage. We've reached our destination!"

"Alright, stop fumbling around, kid. Let Mother carry you down."

This...

Hearing the explicit terms used by Her Holiness, Ghost and Chrysanthemum looked at each other in shock. Was this really the Her Holiness they knew? How had she become so bold and open!

"Elder Ghost, you lead the way. We will accompany His Highness the Saint Son as we walk ahead. It's been a long time since I've been to the Star Dou Forest; taking a stroll through here suddenly feels quite nice."

Bibi Dong smoothed out her long purple dress and gestured for Ghost Douluo to lead the way.

It was rare for her to get out of Spirit Hall to get some fresh air, and now that she had the chance, she naturally wanted to have a good look around.

"As you command, Your Holiness."

Ghost Douluo nodded and began to lead the way.

Bibi Dong and Lin Tian walked in the middle, while Chrysanthemum Douluo toyed with a chrysanthemum, bringing up the rear to guard the group.

They had only walked a few steps when they felt a cold wind blowing over their heads from time to time, causing the Title Douluos present to tense up.

After all, there were existences within the Star Dou Forest that were taboos they dared not touch.

Lin Tian scanned his surroundings with curiosity, finding that the forest was dense with vegetation. The tree canopy formed a continuous shade on the ground, and in the sweltering summer heat, the air was filled with a refreshing scent, making the temperature much cooler than it was outside.

In the dense forest, Soft Bone Rabbits could be seen everywhere, covering the ground like a pale blue ocean. In the nearby woodland, several plump Soft Bone Rabbits were fleeing from a pack of Nether Wolves, showcasing the diversity of the ecosystem.

As they traveled through the dense woods, the wails of low-level spirit beasts being hunted echoed in their ears from time to time, creating a deeply unsettling feeling.

Perhaps sensing the fear in Lin Tian's heart, Bibi Dong, who was walking beside him, bent down and scooped him into her arms. The sweet fragrance emanating from her chest instantly calmed Lin Tian's mind.

Soon, Ghost Douluo led Lin Tian and the others to a wide grassy area. It was shaded by lush greenery and filled with clusters of flowers, with larks flying overhead from time to time—it was truly a perfect leisure spot.

"Your Majesty, the path ahead is somewhat difficult to traverse. Please remain here and rest for a moment. I shall go and hunt a spirit for the Holy Son; the nest of the Bee Poison King Spider is nearby, and I believe I can complete the task quickly."

"If that is the case, then I shall trouble you, Elder Ghost."

"However, Your Majesty, the growth age of the Bee Poison King Spider here is around five or six hundred years. Can the Holy Son's body truly withstand it? According to the Ten Core Theories of Spirits, I worry that he..."

Ghost Douluo looked somewhat concerned and could not help but remind Her Majesty in a low voice.

"Rest assured, Elder Ghost! As the Soul-Eater Spider Emperor is a leader among beast spirits, any spirit master who possesses it has a physical constitution far more formidable than that of an average spirit master. A mere five or six-hundred-year-old spirit beast will not cause any harm to his body!"

Bibi Dong glanced at Lin Tian, a look of pride immediately surfacing in her rose-colored eyes.

"The Holy Son has successfully awakened the twin Spider Emperor spirits; his physical tolerance is far beyond what other spirit masters can compare to. As for those spirit master theories circulating throughout the Douluo Continent, they are only intended for ordinary commoner spirit masters. For a genius, they are of no use at all!"

As Bibi Dong spoke these words, it was as if she had made a great resolution in her heart. Finally, she addressed the two elders, Ghost and Chrysanthemum, standing to the side:

"You two elders must remember: Yu Xiaogang is nothing but trash, a fraud who only knows how to freeload off the theories in the Spirit Hall Library! I order you, the next time you see him, cripple his four limbs, sever his manhood, and toss him into the Mass Grave to fend for himself!"
