Adorably Cute Baby: Mommy's Going Against the Heavens

Instead, her eyes were firm, and with a light touch of her toes on the tree trunk, her figure flashed like a ghost and instantly disappeared into the thick fog.

She sensed a strange yet familiar power coming from the southwest. The power made her uneasy, yet she couldn't help but want to get closer.

This force drew her in like a magnet, making it irresistible, and she felt she had to find out what it was all about.

"She...she just used...soul power?" Xuan Yuan Wuhen stared wide-eyed in disbelief, his pupils reflecting the direction Shen Yunxi had disappeared, his tone filled with shock and confusion.

He rubbed his eyes hard, wondering if he was seeing things.

"Soul power?!" Shen Tu Zihan was stunned at first, then realized what she meant. Her eyes widened, and she asked incredulously, "Didn't she fail to awaken it?"

Xuan Yuan Wuhen shook his head and said in a solemn tone, "It seems the rumors are true. Shen Yunxi, who disappeared for six years, has not only awakened her companion spirit, but is already a Soul Imprint Master..."

He gazed intently into the distance and continued, "It seems we all underestimated her."

Before the words were finished, a deafening roar of a beast rang out again, and the ground shook violently.

Xuan Yuan Wuhen's expression changed. Without further hesitation, he picked up Shen Tu Zihan and quickly fled.

Shen Yunxi chased after that force, and the inexplicable attraction in her heart grew stronger and stronger.

At the same time, the beast tide seemed to be guided by something, changing direction and surging towards the direction she had left, as if she were some kind of special bait.

Inside the Star-Picking Tower, the atmosphere was so heavy that you could hear a pin drop.

The pavilion master paced back and forth, his brow furrowed and beads of sweat forming on his forehead. He said in a deep voice, "What exactly is going on?!"

The group looked at each other, clearly unsure what had happened.

“Those monsters and soul beasts are usually as docile as rabbits, so why have they suddenly gone berserk today?! Could it be that someone deliberately sabotaged the formation?” He swept his sharp gaze across the crowd present, his tone carrying a hint of accusation.

A deputy pavilion master, Lu Xiao, stepped forward with a worried expression. He sighed and said in a heavy tone, "Pavilion Master, according to the disciples' report, part of the formation in the mountain has been destroyed, and the soul beasts and monsters have completely gone out of control. The situation is now extremely critical."

Lu Xiao's face was grim as he said, "We must immediately stop the assessment and organize manpower to go to Phoenix Perch Mountain to rescue people! Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

"Terminate the assessment? Terminating it now would mean all our previous efforts were wasted!" another elder objected. "The assessment has reached its final stage. Terminating it now would be unfair to those disciples who have already passed!"

"But lives are at stake!" Lu Xiao retorted anxiously. "If we don't rescue them in time, the disciples trapped in the mountains will be in mortal danger!"

Just as everyone was arguing, Wufeng pointed at the crystal ball, his voice filled with disbelief: "Wait! Look, the beast tide... has changed direction!"

Mo Wen's tone was filled with shock and confusion, "They...they seem to be moving southwest...there...there is..."

He suddenly realized something, and his face turned deathly pale. "That's the direction Shen Yunxi is in!"

The crowd gathered around and saw that inside the crystal ball, the mighty beast tide resembled a giant black python. Halfway through its journey, it suddenly changed direction, as if chasing something.
