The Soul Bone Vault Star Dou Forest Had Amassed Over Countless Years!
Bi Ji sighed softly, like the gentlest breeze in the forest.
"Therefore, from a very long time ago, the guardians of the forest—including myself, Di Tian, Xiong Jun, the Ten Thousand Demon King, and later the awakened the Master —reached a consensus."
"All Soul Beast that have perished within the Star Dou Forest, if any have generated Spirit Bone, must be immediately collected and stored by us!"
"We will never allow them to roam freely and become a force that nourishes human Soul Master but then threatens the Soul Beast race!"
"This is for the long-term peace of the forest, and also to prevent the Soul Beast Clan from being harmed by the sharp blades nourished by their own remains."
As Lin Xia listened to Bi Ji's clear and insightful Analytic, the doubts in her heart suddenly disappeared as if the clouds had parted and the sun was shining through!
I see!
This is neither a coincidence of nature nor a restriction of rules, but the most rational strategic choice made by the core leadership of the Star Dou Forest based on the most realistic survival logic!
To reclaim Spirit Bone, isolate resources, curb the excessive greed of humans, and protect the balance of the forest and the future of Soul Beast!
What a far-sighted vision!
What a decisive move!
"I understand! I completely understand!"
Lin Xia's eyes instantly lit up dramatically, as if stars were burning within them.
The mystery that had been troubling him was solved, and a surge of overwhelming excitement followed!
The accumulation of countless millennia in the Star Dou Forest?
What an enormous and astonishing treasure trove of Spirit Bone that must be!
If we could choose from them...
The thought spread through his mind like wildfire.
He looked at Gu Yuena and Bi Ji with burning eyes, his voice rising slightly with excitement, almost impatiently, with a hint of nervousness and intense anticipation.
"Then... where are these recovered Spirit Bone stored now? Can... can I... possess some?"
This direct and Covet question startled Bi Ji slightly. She subconsciously looked at Gu Yuena, her eyes filled with a clear inquiry and a hint of barely Frisk surprise.
The Spirit Bone Treasury is one of the most important strategic reserves in the Star Dou Forest, a legacy accumulated over countless years, and its significance is profound.
Even powerful Ferocious Beast need a sufficient reason to obtain the Last Resort within.
Lin Xia, a human boy, even with special abilities, has just been recognized and immediately asks for something... This seems a bit...
However, Gu Yuena's reaction was unusually decisive.
She didn't even look at Bi Ji's questioning gaze; her deep purple eyes simply rested calmly on Lin Xia, as if she were looking at a precious object worth investing in.
Her voice remained cool and clear, yet carried an undeniable authority, like a final Judgment:
"Sure."
These four words exploded in Bi Ji's heart like a thunderclap!
Her emerald eyes widened instantly, filled with disbelief!
My the Master... you agreed so easily?!
There weren't even any additional conditions?
What... what does this mean?
This means that Lin Xia's status in the Master's heart has been elevated to the point where she can share the core strategic resources of the Soul Beast Clan?!
This is far more than simple appreciation or investment; it's practically equivalent to regarding him as... an extremely important member of the Soul Beast faction!
A human?!
Bi Ji's inner turmoil nearly overflowed her eyes. She Sheer Force suppressed her surging emotions, and when her gaze returned to Lin Xia, the gentle concern she already possessed instantly deepened, becoming even more... kind?
It's as if you're looking at a child who has been bestowed with supreme glory by the Master, a special being who needs your more kindness and attention.
To be so highly regarded by the Master, this young man... is destined for greatness!
"I will obey the Master's decree."
Bi Ji suppressed her shock and respectfully replied, her voice still gentle, but the look in her eyes as she looked at Lin Xia now showed complete acceptance and respect.
Just then, a powerful and familiar surge of Soul Power, carrying an undisguised anxiety and concern, Infiltrator the tranquil Barrier at the bottom of the Lake of Life like a sharp sword, instantly Lock-On this spot!
"Xiao Xia!"
A cold yet anxious call rang out, followed by a noble and peerless purple figure, radiating a sharp aura, suddenly appearing on the platform as if tearing through space!
The purple-gold sleeves of the Pope's robes fluttered, and although the powerful Rakshasa Divine Power was being restrained, the pressure of a Peak Douluo still made the surrounding air freeze.
The person who arrived was none other than Bibi Dong!
Her stunningly beautiful face was pale, and her amethyst-like eyes were filled with lingering fear and deep worry.
The moment she sensed Lin Xia awaken and appear here, she disregarded everything and broke through the intentional or unintentional "protection" of Di Tian and the Ferocious Beast, rushing over at top speed.
After scanning over and confirming that Lin Xia was safe and sound, and even looked better than before, Bibi Dong's tense nerves finally relaxed.
She had no time to pay attention to Gu Yuena and the gentle Bi Ji who were exuding terrifying pressure. In a flash, she appeared in front of Lin Xia, opened her arms, and with a mix of ecstatic joy and lingering fear, hugged Lin Xia tightly in her arms!
The force was so great that Lin Xia could hardly breathe, but he could clearly feel the slight trembling of his master's arms, and feel the worry and cherishment that emanated from beneath the cold Pope robes, a worry that seemed to be ingrained in his very bones.
"Master..."
Lin Xia felt a warmth in her heart, her nose tingled slightly, and she called out softly, trying to ease her master's tension.
"It's alright... it's alright..."
Bibi Dong's voice carried a barely Frisk sob. She closed her eyes, feeling the real body temperature and heartbeat of her disciple in her arms. The scene of ice and fire hell she had just witnessed seemed to be right before her eyes, leaving her with lingering fear.
After a long while, she slowly released Lin Xia, her hands still tightly gripping his shoulders, carefully examining him from head to toe, as if to confirm that he was truly unharmed.
"Master, I'm really alright now."
Lin Xia smiled reassuringly and took Bibi Dong's slightly cool hand in hers. Feeling the slight tremor in her fingertips, she was deeply moved.
He decided to tell his master some good news to put her at ease and also... divert her vigilance from Gu Yuena.
"And."
Lin Xia's smile carried the excitement unique to young people, and her voice became a little lighter.
"His Excellency the Silver Dragon King just promised me that I could choose Spirit Bone I wanted! It's a treasure trove of Spirit Bone accumulated over countless years in the Star Dou Forest! This time, I've truly turned misfortune into blessing! Master, you should be happy!"
"What?!"
Sure enough, Bibi Dong's lingering fear froze instantly, replaced by extreme shock and a hint of instinctive vigilance! She abruptly looked up, her sharp, blade-like gaze suddenly shooting towards Gu Yuena, who stood silently like a god not far away, and Bi Ji had a gentle smile on her face beside her.
Can you choose Spirit Bone?
The accumulation of countless years in the Star Dou Forest?
This is an utterly absurd promise!
