God Creation Plan

Unlike other soul masters, who would have been bursting with questions about how to become the God of Creation, Lin Wan'er cherished the time she had now. She had long since regarded the people of the Four Sects and the soul beasts as family.

Single-mindedly pursuing illusory power made it easy to lose oneself, forget the emotions one had as a human, and become nothing more than a tool of the world.

Just like the many Star Spirits represented by Soraka, they loved watching demigods who adored the human world gradually forget who they once were through scripts crafted by their own hands, becoming sharp blades in their grasp—or even dogs...

Finding the thought utterly boring, Lin Wan'er put away her smile. Her gaze swept over the soul beasts, each different in form but all skilled in concealment, and she said solemnly, "You've worked hard during this time. Now, I have one final task for you."

All the soul beasts pricked up their ears and listened to what the Holy Maiden would say next.

As long as they successfully completed the ten-year ambush plan assigned by the Holy Maiden, they could return to the Star Dou Great Forest and collect Soul Coin rewards from Pink Lady, exchange them for Soul Guidance Arrays capable of helping them grow into Ten Thousand Year soul beasts, and obtain special Soul Beast Pills.

Some soul beasts that were better at saving money and took on greater missions, such as the Scarlet Fruit Soul Tree, even squeezed out their Source of Life. As long as Huo Yun'er needed it, or Huo Yuhao had the thought of testing whether its fruits were ripe, those ruthless beasts could even obtain territory for permanent residence within the third ring of the Star Dou Great Forest. It made ordinary soul beasts like them green with envy!

Watching the little soul beasts' eyes light up at the mention of money, Lin Wan'er smiled again. Her icy gaze fixed on the Duchess, who was laughing heartily within the White Tiger Duke's estate, as she said, "For anyone who has spoken behind our backs about the Heaven Dou Empire being inferior to the White Tiger Duke—regardless of age—find a way to add Soul Power Stagnation Potion to their food. Make them completely unable to use soul skills for one year. For every person you take down, the reward is two hundred Soul Coins."

All the soul beasts erupted in excitement. Carrying the potions Lin Wan'er had taken from her spatial ring, they hurried toward the courtyard.

The Soul Coins they earned from completing the ten-year mission only added up to around a thousand. Yet now, taking down a single soul master within the White Tiger Duke's estate would earn them two hundred Soul Coins. Wasn't the Goddess of Wealth frantically waving them over? If they worked hard enough, perhaps they could bring their entire families to live within the third ring of the Star Dou Great Forest, enjoying the same treatment as the Scarlet Fruit Soul Tree!

Scarlet Fruit Soul Tree: ...

If it forcefully strengthened its roots and secretly slipped into the Duchess's beloved back garden to stretch its limbs a little, it should be able to take down quite a few soul masters, right? Sensing its eagerness, the soul beast that was innately disadvantaged when it came to movement began to panic. Lin Wan'er did not know whether to laugh or cry. She quickly raised a hand to stop the Scarlet Fruit Soul Tree's idiotic plan and reassured it, "Bi Ji has already reserved you in advance, though not many people know about it. Don't accidentally let it slip and make the other soul beasts jealous. It would be amusing if that caused a misunderstanding."

Hearing that Bi Ji, the leader of the Emerald Swan clan, was willing to take it in, the Scarlet Fruit Soul Tree stopped swaying its branches. Satisfied, it followed Lin Wan'er into the black hole and returned to the inner region of the Star Dou Great Forest.

After three rounds of transformation, the inner region was no longer as crude as before. All sorts of aerial pavilions and buildings, created by combining the authority of the Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena with Soul Tools and spatial fusion, were now no less impressive than Shrek's Inner Courtyard, one of the finest on the continent.

Every soul beast and soul master living here was an outstanding representative who had made exceptional contributions to the soul beast race.

The three sides maintaining a balance were the direct-line elder disciples of the Four Sects' inner branches who had fused with attribute soul beasts, soul engineers from the Sun Moon Continent, and the Ferocious Beasts led by the Star Dou Great Forest.

Naturally, there were also figures caught between these three massive powers, such as exchange disciples sent by the Holy Spirit Cult and the Body Sect, as well as some young talents from the Sun Moon Empire's royal faction who supported the soul beasts.

They were all outstanding individuals capable of easily stirring up storms across the continent. Only then were they qualified to come into contact with the Star Dou Great Forest's most sacred core region.

After handing the Scarlet Fruit Soul Tree over to a soul master from the Defense Clan, Lin Wan'er turned to look at Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, whose soul power was being drained by the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, and said helplessly, "Tianmeng, after all these years, have you really not learned the movement technique I taught you for concealing your aura? Is it really all right to let Jin'ni grab you and drag you around like this every day?"

At the end of the day, Tianmeng was male and Jin'ni was female. Although Lin Wan'er did not believe the two of them could possibly fall in love under everyone's watchful eyes, it still would not look good if others saw it.

If the Auspicious Beast failed to find a suitable partner in the future, would that idiot Tianmeng, who kept calling out "Ice Empress, hehe," have to take responsibility?

"Isn't it because I'm lazy? Besides, having Miss Jin'ni take a few mouthfuls of my soul power is my good fortune, hehe."

Tianmeng's smile was somewhat lecherous, completely ignoring Lin Wan'er's increasingly dark expression.

When the Three-Eyed Golden Lion noticed Lin Wan'er had returned, she decisively gave up devouring Tianmeng's soul power. She trotted over to her little sister's side, began purring, and begged for head pats.

Seeing this, Lin Wan'er sighed. As she stroked the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's fluffy fur, she said to Tianmeng, "That boy who fits your God Creation Plan has appeared. If you still refuse to come with me to the outskirts of the Soul Beast Forest, I'm afraid his first soul ring will end up being a ten-year Wind Baboon."

The previously busy and orderly inner region of the Star Dou Great Forest fell silent in an instant.

What? A ten-year Wind Baboon as a soul ring? That was unacceptable!

Dozens of Titled Douluo auras surged from nearby. Pairs of cold eyes stabbed wildly into Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's plump, round body.

Under the attention of so many powerful figures, Tianmeng immediately cowered. Wriggling over to Lin Wan'er, he stretched out his tiny hand and cried anxiously, "Ahhh! I will never allow this genius's host to have a mindless Wind Baboon as his first soul ring! Take me there, now—"

Tianmeng's voice echoed through the Star Dou Great Forest, successfully disturbing quite a few Ferocious Beasts in hibernation.

For a moment, more and more gazes fell upon him, and the pressure grew heavier.

"All you do every day is eat, drink, and sleep. Bai Chenxiang really spoils you too much."

Even now, Lin Wan'er did not understand why Bai Chenxiang liked Tianmeng. She cared for him as meticulously as a mother caring for her pet, and whenever she had nothing to do, she would sneak into the Land of Extreme North to steal some ice marrow for him. It had nearly caused the powerful figures there to come knocking...

Looking at Tianmeng's comical figure, Lin Wan'er ultimately attributed it all to their identities.

Bai Chenxiang's martial soul was a bird, while Tianmeng was an insect. Birds that had eaten their fill liked raising plump, pale worms. Perfectly reasonable!

The two soon vanished from everyone's sight, presumably to find the chosen son of heaven for the God Creation Plan.

Standing behind the Emperor Willow, Di Tian gave an indifferent snort. He could not understand why the Holy Maiden placed such importance on a human boy.

If he had not known that the Holy Maiden disliked romance and only enjoyed pursuing great undertakings, he would have thought she too had fallen blindly into love with a weak human whose age was not even as long as a minor project's planned duration.
