The hazy starlight twinkled in the sky, like the breath of the stars.

The silent night, like a black curtain, covered everything. In the dim light, the trees that were lush and green during the day stood in the darkness, their outlines blurred in the night, appearing particularly eerie.

The night was shrouded in mist, and the dark shadows moved silently through the Sunset Forest, where the danger had doubled.

As the soul beast, drinking water by the babbling brook, twitched its ears and suspiciously looked around, but found no suspicious figures. It seemed that the rustling sound was just the wind blowing through the leaves.

The gothic-style black dress, shimmering with tiny lights, resembled an elegant black cat slithering through the night, perfectly blending into the darkness. Even when passing by the sensitive nest of a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast, it did not disturb the sleeping beast.

A petite figure landed on a slightly thick branch, looking ahead at the mist that was different from the hazy night fog, mixed with an eerie dark green and dark purple. Her nose twitched slightly, and a smile appeared in her light purple eyes.

Found it.

In the original storyline, Dugu Bo set up a poison array in Sunset Forest to hide and protect the rare treasures of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.

A gentle breeze ruffled Qian Yuelong's soft black bangs, transforming her once beautiful long silver hair into a simple short black hairstyle.

The Moon Shadow Veil, which achieves perfect concealment as long as you remain silent, combined with two pieces from the [Crimson Law] set, the "Fearless Forward" outfit and the "Dream Bewitching" hair, creates a perfect concealment effect.

With this three-click combo, as long as she hides well, even a Title Douluo wouldn't be able to find her.

[Host, maybe we should call it quits? This poison array looks really powerful. Your third soul skill only heals, it doesn't cure poison. What if you get poisoned?]

886's worried voice echoed in his mind.

Qian Yuelong raised an eyebrow slightly. "My third soul skill indeed doesn't cure poison, but have you forgotten? I've already cultivated my Heavenly Evolution Technique to the first level. My blood is immune to all poisons; I have innate poison immunity. No matter how potent the poison, it has no effect on me."

886 thinks it's not a good idea.

[But what if you get face-to-face with Dugu Bo after you go in?]

During the daytime standoff, the host secretly put on "Condensed Light" while both sides were still locked in a stalemate.

If a fight really breaks out, can you lock onto the opponent for five seconds?

“Dugu Bo won’t be there,” Qian Yuelong answered confidently. “He’s the same as in the original story; he dotes on his only granddaughter like the apple of his eye. Dugu Yan was injured during the day, so Dugu Bo must be with her now, escorting them back to the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy.”

A string of code flashed through 886's not-so-bright little brain, lighting a candle for Dugu Bo's herb garden.

With a light touch on the treetops, Qian Yuelong confidently leaped into the poisonous area, a mixture of dark green and deep purple.

The pungent smell was almost nauseating.

If this is true for humans, then it's even more true for spirit beasts with their keen sense of smell.

No wonder no soul beasts within several miles of the poison array were willing to approach.

"Sizzle"

A faint corrosive sound came from my body.

Qian Yuelong's pupils shrank as she looked at the Moon Shadow Veil draped over the black cloak. The thin, misty Moon Shadow Veil was corroded with large holes the moment it came into contact with the poisonous mist.

Qian Yuelong, whose heart had stopped, slammed on the brakes and jumped back outside the poison array. She quickly took off the Moon Shadow Veil and unceremoniously tore off her black cloak, throwing it on the ground to be covered in dirt.

The toxic fumes are highly corrosive.

The once magnificent black cloak was quickly eroded into pitiful pieces by the corrosive toxins remaining on the clothing.

These are toxins that spread from the corroded Moonveil.

"How could this happen?!"

Her clothes!

Qian Yuelong felt as if her heart was being torn apart, looking painfully at the Moon Shadow Veil in her hand, which was still incomplete even though she had managed to stop the damage in time.

It's like holding a piece of starlight, the twinkling rays weaving a thin veil, but that doesn't change the fact that the Moon-Hidden Veil is already tattered, with big holes here and there, and can no longer be worn.

Her faith level!

The Assassin's Set "Fearless Forward" was unharmed because she took off her cloak in time; otherwise, Qian Yuelong would have lost more than just a Moon Shadow Veil.

886 sighed: [Host, you're immune to the virus. But your clothes aren't. Unless you want to go in naked.]

Qian Yuelong: "......"

Do you want to listen to what you're saying?

Her delicate face contorted for a moment, she took a deep breath, and asked with a pained expression, "Can the damaged clothes be recycled?"

886 flipped through the system manual and shook his head regretfully: [No.]

Their main system is very unscrupulous; it will never give away more than it can swindle the host's faith points.

If clothes are damaged, you can only spend faith points to remake them; there's no way you can trade in old clothes for new ones and make a profit.

Qian Yuelong watched the surging poisonous fog ahead with resentment.

Since she'd already come all this way, and she'd even lost a piece of Moon-Hidden Gauze, it would be a real shame to leave without taking away some local specialties.

'Xiao Ba, quickly search if there's a set with maxed-out poison resistance?'

886 first checked the details of the unlocked A-grade sets, then looked at their remaining balance, and sincerely suggested: "There are A-grade sets available, but I don't recommend you craft them. I think you should choose B-grade sets; it's more cost-effective."

Qian Yuelong: "......"

Okay, it's just an inspection fee?

She already has 6720 faith points, so she doesn't need to worry about these few more.

"...Go ahead and deduct it." she said wearily.

[Beep—Faith Value -15, Current Faith Value: 6705]

After processing a massive amount of data on outfit sets, 886 found the most suitable outfit set.

[Host, this B-grade set is pretty good. Its ability is to transform into a butterfly, allowing it to swim freely in the poison circle.]

886 proudly projected the details of the selected packages it had chosen.

Qian Yuelong stared intently.

Qian Yuelong let out a soft "Eh".

Because the price of this B-grade set is surprisingly cheap for each piece compared to other B-grade sets.

Could there be some strange side effects?

Qian Yuelong suddenly became alert.

—A side note—

It will drop on time, but only once, wow~
