Chapter 144

Lake of Life.

The Lake of Life is located in the core region of the Star Dou Great Forest, with a very vast area.

Lake of Life lies in the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest, its area extremely vast.

At this moment, beneath the Lake of Life, an eighty-zhang-long, pitch-black giant dragon lies sleeping here.

At this moment, beneath the Lake of Life, an eighty-zhang-long, pitch-black giant dragon lies sleeping here.

Suddenly, the giant dragon suddenly opened its eyes—closed, two huge golden dragon eyes appeared.

In the dragon's eyes were majesty, brutality, and a love of killing.

This giant dragon is the strongest soul beast on the continent aside from the Silver Dragon King Gu Yue Na, the chief of the ten ferocious beasts, and aside from the Dragon God's Nine Sons and the Golden Dragon King, the Silver Dragon King, it is the dragon king with the purest bloodline.

This giant dragon is the strongest soul beast on the continent aside from the Silver Dragon King Gu Yue Na, the chief of the ten ferocious beasts, and aside from the Dragon God's Nine Sons and the Golden Dragon King, the Silver Dragon King, it is the dragon king with the purest bloodline.

Its strength is unmatched, comparable to a demigod.

At this moment, the giant beast's pair of dragon eyes gazed toward above the Lake of Life, its gaze full of killing intent.

Above the Lake of Life, Qianxunji flew in the sky.

Beside him followed Wu Ji, Xiao Wu, Da Ming, and Er Ming.

Qianxunji's sharp gaze swept over the Lake of Life, and he saw the huge black dragon within the lake, roaring:

"Di Tian brat, come out and die!"

The rumbling sound passed through the Lake of Life and reached Di Tian's ears.

Di Tian's pair of large dragon eyes were full of anger.

He is none other than the Beast God Di Tian; now the Silver Dragon King Gu Yue Na is asleep, and he is the Soul Beast Sovereign.

His strength is such that even if the Spirit Hall's Ultimate Douluo Qian Daoliu were to come, he would still not be a match for him.

Unexpectedly, the human before him actually dared to provoke him.

Thinking this, Di Tian's massive dragon body stirred, and his body instantly shot upward toward the Lake of Life.

"Boom!"

On the lake surface, a tremendous wave-breaking sound rang out.

"Roar!"

Accompanied by a dragon roar that made all beasts submit, a wholly pitch-black, ferocious and terrifying giant dragon surged forth.

Qianxunji surveyed Di Tian before him, whose body stretched eighty zhang, scales like steel covering his whole body, exuding a piercing killing aura.

While Qianxunji was sizing up Di Tian, Di Tian was also sizing up Qianxunji.

Seeing Qianxunji flying in the air, he was certain he was a Title Douluo.

However, he could not tell the opponent's strength, whether his aura was strong or not.

It seems the opponent has cultivated a technique to restrain his aura.

However, in Di Tian's view, even if Qianxunji were stronger, he could not be his match.

"Human, although I don't know how you learned of my existence, your courage is truly great."

"Knowing I am the Beast God Di Tian, you still dare to come here—truly you do not know the meaning of life and death."

"Heh!" Qianxunji gave a cold chuckle, then said lightly:

"Little earthworm, if you submit to me now, you can still avoid the suffering of flesh and skin; otherwise, in a moment I will flay you, pull out your tendons, and ruin all your strength."

"Impudent!"

Di Tian exploded with a shout, saying:

"I am a dragon king of 890,000 years; how could you, a mere Title Douluo, compare to me? Since you seek death, I will grant it."

Just as his words fell, Di Tian raised his massive dragon claw and fiercely swatted at Qianxunji.

"Fall back!"

Qianxunji coldly shouted; beside him, Wu Ji embraced Xiao Wu and retreated to a distance, while Da Ming and Er Ming also fled quickly, their eyes burning as they watched the impending battle.

Da Ming, Er Ming, Xiao Wu, and Wu Ji stared in shock at the enormous black dragon before them.

They had previously sensed a tremendous pressure beneath the Lake of Life, knowing a powerful soul beast slept below, so they had never dared to venture deep into the Lake of Life.

Even the Da Ming, the Azure Blue Python, the forest's overlord, dared only to linger at the edge of the Lake of Life, not daring to get too close.

Because it feared the presence beneath the Lake of Life.

At this moment, Da Ming looked at Di Tian before him and could clearly feel the mighty majestic pressure emanating from Di Tian's body, far stronger than his own.

Da Ming stared at Di Tian with lingering fear, and whispered:

"Xiao Wu sis, who do you think will win, Qianxunji or the Beast God Di Tian?"

Xiao Wu heard this, thought for a moment, then spread her two rabbit paws and said:

"Qianxunji can so easily defeat the four of us; his strength is far beyond ours."

"And the Beast God Di Tian's pressure from his body is truly too strong; we are also far from being his match. If I had to judge, I truly do not know who could win."

Wu Ji heard this, thinking of Qianxunji's terrifying Steel Body and formidable physical strength, and said firmly:

"I think Qianxunji will surely win."

"Why?" Da Ming hurriedly asked, while Er Ming and Xiao Wu also turned their gazes toward Wu Ji.

Wu Ji felt the gazes and said embarrassedly:

"Because his flesh is truly too hard, far stronger than that of soul beasts by a great margin."

"With such a tough physical constitution, he is innately invincible."

"Is his flesh hard?" Xiao Wu murmured, her eyes shining as she fixed her gaze on Qianxunji.

At that moment, Qianxunji watched Di Tian's massive dragon claw swing toward him, clenched his fist, and then launched a fierce punch.

"Boom!"

The huge dragon claw and Qianxunji's petite fist collided, instantly erupting a deafening roar on the spot.

At the same time, the lake water below exploded upward, stirring up towering waves.

Wu Ji, Xiao Wu, Da Ming, and Er Ming watched this scene, all looking shocked.

Da Ming Erming murmured further:

"So it was that, when Qianxunji dealt with the two of us that day, he was far from using his full strength; otherwise we would have died without a place to be buried."

"Roar!"

Suddenly, a painful dragon roar rang from the sky; the few onlookers looked up and saw the Beast God Di Tian's dragon claws smashed by Qianxunji into a bloody, flesh‑torn mess.

"So strong?"

Wu Ji stared at the scene in astonishment; she knew Qianxunji was powerful, and that he would surely win this battle.

But she had not expected Qianxunji to be so mighty; with a single punch he shattered the overwhelmingly strong, flesh‑bound dragon claws of Di Tian.

The sight was truly overwhelming.

At that moment, Wu Ji's gaze toward Qianxunji was filled with blazing admiration.

In that instant, Wu Ji felt she had bet correctly; Qianxunji truly was her ideal husband, indeed the strongest support she had sought for herself and Xiao Wu.

From that single strike, Wu Ji saw that Qianxunji's power far surpassed Ultimate Douluo, likely already beyond demi‑god level, and perhaps already possessing the legendary mysterious Divine‑level power.

"Sss!"

Wu Ji inhaled sharply, Divine Abode, Divine‑level power!

Does that not mean that, now that she has become Qianxunji's woman, no human Soul Master on the continent would dare hunt her and Xiao Wu for a hundred‑thousand‑year Soul Ring?

Unless Qianxunji's beastly nature erupts and he kills the two of them to take the Soul Ring.

However, after more than ten days of day‑and‑night interaction, Wu Ji had already seen that Qianxunji, though a complete lecher, gets ideas when he sees a stunningly beautiful woman.

But Wu Ji also knew that as long as she became Qianxunji's woman, he would treat his own woman very well.

His own woman, his own care.

That sentence reflects Wu Ji's understanding of Qianxunji.

"Roar!"

Di Tian looked at his blood‑soaked dragon claws, let out an angry roar, and his lantern‑sized golden dragon eyes, brimming with killing intent, fixed tightly on Qianxunji, angrily saying:

"Human, I never expected your flesh to be so strong; I underestimated you, and have suffered such a great loss."

"From now on, I will unleash all my power; meet your death!"
