No! Master! Sister Xue'er! What You're Sensing Is Only the Surface!

"Um."

Bibi Dong's cool voice fell, carrying an undeniable determination.

Her purple figure transformed into a streak of light, rushing towards the deeper part of the forest where the Soul Power fluctuations were purer.

Qian Renxue's six pure white wings unfurled behind her, their holy radiance dispelling some of the gloom of the primeval forest, and followed closely behind.

Lin Xia and Ivysaur were gently lifted up by Bibi Dong's invisible Soul Power and followed steadily to the side.

The goal is clear at this moment.

Our priority is to obtain Qian Renxue's Seventh Soul Ring!

If successful, Qian Renxue Seven-Ring Soul Sage, will experience a qualitative leap in strength.

As for Lin Xia's third Soul Ring, compared to hunting Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, it did seem much "easier".

According to Qian Renxue's description and the Spirit Hall's top-secret records, the Soul Beast she needed was an extremely rare one, symbolizing pure light and Soul Beast — the Holy Light Unicorn.

These Soul Beast typically inhabit small groups on the edge of the core area of Star Dou Forest, near areas rich in sacred attributes.

For the next fourteen days, the three (plus Ivysaur) conducted a thorough search in the treacherous heart of the Star Dou Forest.

Bibi Dong's powerful mental strength was like an invisible radar, sweeping across the primeval forests.

Qian Renxue, relying on the Angel Spirit's natural affinity for divine aura, continuously corrected her course.

Lin Xia, relying on Ivysaur's exceptionally keen perception of energy after fusing the essence of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings, the Rakshasa Divine Power, and her increasingly profound Plant Affinity, explored the environment from another dimension.

They avoided the territories of several terrifying Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast and even frightened away hordes of Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast. Finally, at dusk on the fourteenth day, they arrived at a valley shrouded in a strange light.

This valley is like a dazzling jewel embedded in a dark forest.

The valley entrance is surrounded by towering ancient trees, but the valley itself is exceptionally open, with the ground covered in Limber, velvety, silvery-white moss that emits a faint glow.

In the center of the valley lies a small, crystal-clear lake, which also radiates a soft, holy light.

Meanwhile, on the meadows surrounding the lake, they leisurely strolled towards their target— the Holy Light Unicorn!

There are seven in total.

They are taller and more robust than ordinary horses, covered in pure white fur that is as bright as moonlight and as smooth as silk, shimmering with Pearl luster in the afterglow of the setting sun and their own holy light.

What's most striking is the spiral-shaped, crystal-clear horn on their foreheads, as if carved from the purest crystal!

The single horn is the source of their power, and at this moment, with their breath, it naturally exudes a gentle yet powerful divine aura, dispelling the coldness and malevolence deep in the forest, filling the entire valley with a peaceful, serene, and pure atmosphere.

Their very existence is like the embodiment of light.

Even the well-informed Bibi Dong and the resolute Qian Renxue couldn't help but show a hint of amazement in their eyes at this moment.

Especially for Qian Renxue, her Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul even resonated subtly, and the Angel Soul Power within her body became exceptionally active, as if it were cheering and jumping for joy.

She could clearly sense that the power attributes of these Holy Light Unicorn perfectly matched her Martial Soul, especially the one that was the largest, with the most intense unicorn light, clearly the leader of the tribe, whose aura had reached an astonishing peak of 90,000 years! This was simply a perfect Seventh Soul Ring tailor-made for her!

"These are the ones."

Qian Renxue's voice carried a hint of barely suppressed excitement, her golden eyes Lock-On onto the leader unicorn.

Her six wings trembled slightly, and a vast Angel Soul Power began to gather, with the phantom of the Sword of Holiness appearing and disappearing in her hand.

Bibi Dong narrowed her purple eyes slightly, her powerful mental energy already Lock-On onto the entire clan.

The Pope's majesty and murderous aura began to permeate the air, and the phantom of the Death Spider Emperor flashed past behind her.

She was about to make her move, seizing control of the situation with lightning speed to ensure her daughter could successfully absorb the strongest unicorn Soul Ring.

In her view, although these seven Holy Light Unicorn were powerful and rare, the strongest of them was only 60,000 years old, and they couldn't cause any trouble in front of her, a level 97 Peak Douluo.

"Da... da na--!!!"

Just as Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue were about to unleash their power and make their move, at the critical moment...

Ivysaur had been lying quietly at Lin Xia's feet and seemed to be attracted by the sacred scene before it, suddenly let out an extremely sharp screech, full of warning!

The Four-Colored Light Wheel on its back, which had been slowly rotating, suddenly accelerated, especially the purplish-black pattern representing the Rakshasa Divine Power, which, like an activated alarm light, burst forth with an unprecedented, almost blinding, eerie light!

The light flashed intensely, pointing directly at the tranquil and peaceful lake of holy light and the herd of unicorns!

At the same time, Lin Xia's heart suddenly clenched!

A powerful, chilling sensation instantly swept through his entire body!

This doesn't come from sight or hearing, but from his increasingly profound affinity with plants and nature!

In his perception, the seemingly pure, warm, and vibrant holy light energy field throughout the valley... something was wrong! Something was very wrong!

Beneath the surface, there seems to be an extremely cold, viscous, and malicious layer, like ink dripping into a clear spring, silently polluting this sacred place!

The cold, viscous aura was deeply concealed, perfectly blending into the appearance of the holy light. If it weren't for Ivysaur's almost instinctive and unimaginable keen perception of the Rakshasa Divine Power being violently triggered, coupled with Lin Xia's own Plant Affinity that brought him insight into the "essence" of energy rather than its "appearance," it would have been impossible to Frisk!

"Master! Sister Xue'er! Wait a moment!!!"

Lin Xia almost roared, his voice distorted by a strong sense of crisis. He took a step forward and even subconsciously reached out, as if trying to stop the two figures beside him who were about to act.

Lin Xia's actions and voice were so abrupt and urgent that they instantly interrupted Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue's Soul Power that they were preparing to unleash!

Bibi Dong's killing intent vanished abruptly, and her purple eyes instantly turned to Lin Xia, carrying a hint of sharpness at being interrupted, but more so a serious expression of concern for Lin Xia's unusual reaction.

Qian Renxue's Sword of Holiness paused slightly, a hint of surprise and inquiry flashing in her golden eyes as she looked at Lin Xia and the restless Ivysaur beneath his feet, which was emitting a blinding purple-black light.

"Xiao Xia? What's wrong?"

Bibi Dong's voice was low and swift, and her mental energy immediately swept back towards the valley like a tide, but her brows furrowed slightly—in her perception, those Holy Light Unicorn were still holy and peaceful, with pure energy, showing no signs of any abnormal Soul Beast lurking, nor any powerful aura that could threaten them!

"No! Master! Sister Xue'er! What you've perceived is only the surface!"
