There is a beast: (Hundred Explanations)

Deep in the forest.

Bai Jie is confronting the spirit in front of her.

He just followed the energy to find his way here.

Upon seeing the spirit in front of him, he immediately started fighting with him without saying a word.

“Golden Thread, be careful,” the Four-Faced Beast said.

“You should stand a little further away, just so you don’t hold us back. No, you shouldn’t stand too far away either,” Bai Jie said.

If you stand too far away, you might get ambushed without even realizing it.

The four-legged creature tilted its head, wondering whether it was going far or not.

He turned around and looked at the bushes behind him, then darted in, leaving only his two corners sticking out.

Seeing that her own Qilin had run away to hide, Bai Jie then went all out in the fight.

He just imbued the Four-Faced Beast with his various energies, and with the three strikes from his own horn, self-preservation shouldn't be a problem.

"Hmph, over your own strength!"

Bai Jie snorted coldly. If it weren't for the Four No-Face, would I be afraid of something like you?

If you send Bixie, he can handle a whole bunch of things on his own, let alone him.

Their physical bodies are capable of striking the soul.

These things are fine for messing with ordinary people, but against your own energy and body, they're just asking for trouble.

The ghost split its body into four parts and attacked Bai Jie.

Bai Jie's eyes narrowed, and a surge of powerful dream energy erupted forth.

The ghost's eyes went blank for a moment.

Then, as if he were suffering some kind of pain, wounds kept appearing on his body, and then his soul shattered.

None of the surrounding souls escaped unscathed.

"what--"

The air was filled with the screams of ghosts dying.

"Swiss, swish -"

This scream caused other unknown tremors within the mist.

The forest, which was eerily quiet, seemed to have been brought to life.

The trees began to shake, and suddenly, one of them sprang up from the ground.

"!!!"

What the hell? Are these trees alive?

Like the Sky-Piercing Tree?

Bai Jie was startled by the scene before her. If they all came back to life, she really wouldn't know what to do.

You have to understand that these trees are all tens of meters tall, and some are even hundreds of meters tall. Let alone attacking them all at once, even if two or three trees come at him, Bai Jie would have to deal with them for a while.

Each tree displayed its own expression: some o(╥﹏╥)o (crying), some (*^▽^*) (happy), some ︿(￣︶￣)︿ (relaxed), and some (??へ??╬) (angry).

Bai Jie, who was initially a little scared, twitched her lips slightly. What the hell? Sky Tree, why don't you come and see your kind? Why are they all so abstract?

The Sky-Piercing Tree on the other side.

"Ha~ Ha-qiu~" The Sky-Piercing Tree spun a branch and scratched its 'nose'. "Could trees catch colds? Probably some lost little beast is missing someone~"

. . .

Bai Jie remained on guard for a while and found that the trees did not have any intention of attacking.

I silently wondered, "What?! All that commotion, and nothing happened?"

Seeing that Bai Jie's battle was over, Si Bu Xiang crept over.

He naturally noticed the unusual appearance of these trees as well.

In his mind's eye, he looked toward a place, right in the center of these trees.

"Golden Thread, over there."

Upon hearing this, Bai Jie looked over and saw something glowing. However, it was obscured by the mist, making it difficult to see clearly.

“Let’s go take a look,” Bai Jie said.

That's probably the treasure mentioned in the system.

As they approached, I felt extremely uncomfortable.

"Gold...golden thread, these trees seem to be staring at us..." The Four-Faced Beast's legs felt a little weak.

The trees that originally had various expressions have all been transformed into ???.

“…Don’t look at them, just look at me,” Bai Jie said after a moment of silence.

These things are really weird. If you're afraid of the Four-Unlikes, just look at yourself and follow them step by step so you won't be afraid.

No wonder I felt uncomfortable when I arrived; it turns out I was being watched... cough cough, being closely observed.

All eyes followed their movements.

"Huh? Oh, howl." The Four-Faced Beast was stunned for a moment. If the Four-Faced Beast didn't know better, it would have thought that Bai Jie's words just now were because she was jealous.

He mentally prepared himself again, a signature squinting smile spreading across his face, feeling quite pleased with himself.

"Huh?" Bai Jie glanced back with some concern, afraid that the Sibiki might lose her.

It turned out that the guy was completely unaffected, and even had a smile on his face.

It seems I was overthinking it.

Bai Jie shook her head and continued forward.

What should have been a few minutes' walk took Bai Jie ten minutes.

He had been observing the changes in these trees.

This way, you can escape immediately when the tree tries to attack.

Before Bai Jie was a flower emitting a faint purple light.

Bai Jie could sense the energy fluctuations emanating from it, which were no less than her own supreme-level dream energy.

Bai Jie stretched out her claws and reached for the flower.

'boom! '

A purple barrier appeared on the surface of the flower, and the white claws were repelled the moment they touched it.

The trees next to it all had their faces changed to (`皿′).

Then, a gust of wind swept outwards from the flower.

Just as Si Bu Xiang was about to be blown away, his claws grabbed Bai Jie's tail.

"!!!"

I barely managed to suppress the urge to kick the four-legged creature away.

He gritted his teeth, his feet and claws digging deep into the soil to steady himself.

"Four-Faced Beasts, hold on tight to my tail!" Bai Jie shouted as the wind blew by.

But the wind howled into the four ears of the Four-Faced Beast, making it impossible for it to hear anything.

The gust of wind lasted for five minutes.

Five minutes later, the wind suddenly stopped.

The four-legged creature, which had been blown into the air, lost its wind power and fell to the ground with a 'thud'.

The ground that Bai Jie was holding onto also showed signs of cracking to varying degrees.

"Huff, huff~" Bai Jie gasped for breath.

"Four-Faced Beasts, are you alright?" Bai Jie turned to look at Four-Faced Beasts and asked.

The four-legged creature was still tightly gripping Bai Jie's tail, its eyes somewhat bewildered.

He could only feel his ears buzzing and see Bai Jie's lips moving, as if she was saying something.

Hmm... I can't hear you...

Bai Jie said a lot and finally realized that something was wrong.

After a moment's thought, looking at the four drooping ears, he understood what was going on.

His claws reached for the Four-Faced Beast's ears, and 'Springtime' was activated.

A moment later, "Four-Faced Beasts, can you hear me?"

"Golden Thread? Were you talking to me the whole time?" The Four-Faced Beast's condition had improved.

"Phew~ It's good that I can hear you." Bai Jie said.

This ability to revive in spring is really convenient; I've used it here more than once or twice already.

He gently rubbed the four-legged creature's ears with his paws.

"Ugh... Golden thread, it itches~" the Four-Faced Beast said, its ears getting slightly warm from being rubbed.

It feels nice to the touch.

"Alright, let go of my tail now, I feel like you're going to rip it bald," Bai Jie chuckled.

But when he saw that the Four-Faced Beast had removed its paws, and that a large tuft of fur was missing from its tail, it fell silent.

"Uh, that, the golden thread?" The Four-Faced Beast sensed that something terrible was about to happen.

It seems I accidentally plucked a bald patch off Little Golden Thread's most cherished tail?

"Phew, it's nothing~" Bai Jie casually cast 'Spring Return', and the fur on her tail returned to its original appearance.

Be thankful you have 'Springtime', otherwise you would have gotten a beating.

Next, we need to process this flower.

This energy barrier.

Can I break through it using the power of dreams?
