Diary Settlement, Rewards Explode Again!

At the bottom of the Lake of Life, Gu Yuena read the latest entry in the Diary. Her previous embarrassment and indignation had vanished, replaced by an unprecedented gravity.

The Spirit Soul Method.

Lin Ye had mentioned it in passing in the Diary before, and she had not paid much attention at the time. But seeing how certain he was today, she finally understood what this method truly meant for the Soul Beast Clan, which stood on the brink of extinction.

Since ancient times, the war between Soul Beasts and human Soul Masters had never ceased.

Humans had to hunt Soul Beasts to grow stronger, while Soul Beasts could only fight desperately to survive.

If there really was a method that allowed Soul Beasts to coexist with Soul Masters without dying, then the Soul Beast Clan could completely escape its current dead end of being hunted to extinction!

The soul-guided carriage traveled steadily along the broad official road. Lin Ye leaned against the plush seat, his eyes gently closed. He looked as though he were merely resting, but his mind had long since sunk into his sea of consciousness.

[It's time to plan out the road ahead. Dong'er going to enroll at Shrek normally is the best solution. I can't exactly take her into the Star Dou Forest with me.]

[After all, I'm going there to intercept a god's remnant soul. The risk isn't that great, but Wang Dong'er and I aren't that familiar yet. She can't know too much.]

[I need to come up with a flawless excuse. Once we get close to the Star Dou Forest, I'll have to get off and travel alone.]

The Diary Copy in Wang Dong'er's mind simultaneously refreshed with what Lin Ye had just written.

After reading it, her delicate cheeks immediately puffed up. Her pearly teeth lightly bit her lower lip, and the dissatisfaction in her heart nearly overflowed from her eyes. Fortunately, she forcibly held it back and revealed nothing on the surface.

What the heck?! This guy actually wants to ditch me the moment he turns around?

He just said we were going to Shrek together, and now he's secretly planning to run off by himself? He's just going to leave me behind like that?

Even though she had long known from the Diary that he was going to the Star Dou Forest to intercept a god's remnant soul, and knew that place was fraught with danger, she still could not suppress the knot in her heart.

She secretly raised her eyes and secretly shot a fierce glare at the eyes-closed Lin Ye. Puffing up her cheeks, she huffed in her heart. Too much!

In the core region of the Star Dou Forest, at the bottom of the Lake of Life.

The Emperor Auspicious Beast, who had been dozing beside Gu Yuena, suddenly stiffened. Her upright furry ears instantly stood taut, and her golden pupils flew open.

The Diary Copy in her mind refreshed with what Lin Ye had just written.

That human Lin Ye! He's coming to the Star Dou Forest!

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion's little tail wagged twice in quick succession. Her pink paws could not help scratching at the grass beneath her, and she could barely hide the excitement in her heart. She had long wanted to see that human with her own eyes!

But the next moment, her ears drooped again. A layer of disappointment instantly clouded her golden eyes, and her little body curled back up listlessly.

She remembered her master's orders. Her master had said that she was absolutely forbidden from leaving the area around the Lake of Life.

Even if she begged her master, her master definitely would not agree.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion let out a low, aggrieved whimper and curled herself into a ball.

Gu Yuena, beside her, naturally saw the contents of the Diary at the same time.

She lowered her gaze toward the Auspicious Beast beside her. Her slender fingertips lightly rubbed the edge of her sleeve, and a barely noticeable ripple flashed through her silver-purple eyes.

In the past, she would have sent out a single thought and had Di Tian lead the fierce beasts to crush that human to death.

But that would not work now.

She had merely entertained the thought of having Di Tian capture this human when that strange Diary immediately issued a warning.

Even at her peak, she would have been as insignificant as an ant before that power, let alone now, while she was still recovering.

Gu Yuena raised an eyebrow, her gaze falling on the aggrieved Auspicious Beast. An idea instantly came to mind.

It was not impossible for the Auspicious Beast to go see Lin Ye.

Inside the carriage, Lin Ye's thoughts continued writing in the Diary without pause.

[Come to think of it, my current strength is still a little lacking.]

[My Soul Power is only level 29. It would be a little embarrassing to say it out loud. I only have two Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Rings to keep up appearances.]

[My First Martial Soul, the Dark Gold Staff, has a solid foundation, and my Second Martial Soul has an even higher ceiling. But my Soul Power can't keep up. No matter how good my Martial Souls are, I can't bring out much of their power.]

[That Ten-Thousand-Year Titan Giant Ape Right Arm Bone in my hand is an exceptional treasure, but unfortunately, now isn't the time to absorb it.]

[I need to wait until my Soul Power level is higher. Otherwise, with my current body, the violent power within the Soul Bone could easily make me explode.]

[Fortunately, there's the Everlasting Spring Art. This technique is truly outrageous.]

[It can not only improve appearance and temperament, but also comprehensively enhance aptitude, cultivation speed, and even lifespan. It's practically an all-round, six-sided technique.]

At Shrek Outer Court, in the dormitory.

Xiao Xiao was holding a book when the freshly updated Diary contents in her mind made her eyes widen instantly.

There's such an incredible cultivation technique?!

Not only can it increase cultivation speed, it can even improve aptitude and extend lifespan? That's too heaven-defying!

Xiao Xiao could not help covering her mouth. Her heart was full of shock and envy. Once Lin Ye arrived at Shrek Academy, she had to get to know this impressive little brother properly.

Lin Ye silently recited in his heart, Settle today's rewards.

[Diary settlement successful!]

[Today's rewards issued: Soul Power level increased by three!]

[Reward: Two 100,000-year Soul Rings, automatically compatible with Martial Souls and attachable without backlash!]

[Reward: Everlasting Spring Art advanced to the Minor Mastery realm!]

A string of notification sounds exploded in Lin Ye's mind. He suddenly opened his eyes, nearly failing to keep his expression under control as a curse burst out in his heart.

Holy shit! Today's rewards really exploded!

Sure enough, the more he wrote in the Diary, the richer the rewards became!

Normally, he only received one or two rewards a day. Today, he received three in a row, and every single one was an extraordinary treasure that could only be encountered by chance!

His Soul Power had risen by three levels, allowing him to break through directly from level 29 to a level 32 Soul Elder! And there were also two 100,000-year Soul Rings!

One had to know that even a Titled Douluo might not possess a single 100,000-year Soul Ring, yet the Diary had given him two, and they could automatically attach without backlash!

Not to mention that the Everlasting Spring Art had directly reached Minor Mastery. His cultivation speed and aptitude would rise to another whole level in the future!

Lin Ye took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the surging excitement in his heart. He did not immediately claim the rewards.

No, I absolutely can't claim them now.

Although this soul-guided carriage could isolate Soul Power fluctuations, Wang Dong'er was still inside the carriage, not to mention the middle-aged man driving outside.

Lin Ye could tell with his toes that the man was definitely a top-tier expert, at the very least a Super Douluo above level 95.

Come on, what was Wang Dong'er's status? She was Da Ming and Er Ming's precious darling. Their own daughter was traveling all the way to Shrek Academy to study—if they did not assign her a top-tier guard, not even a dog would believe it.

If he claimed the rewards now, his Soul Power would rise three levels in a row and two 100,000-year Soul Rings would attach to him. The commotion would definitely draw every Soul Master in half the city over, let alone remain hidden from Wang Dong'er in the carriage and the mysterious expert outside.
