Chapter 68: Beast God Ditian, the Appearance of Abyssal Creatures
Zhexian stood on the cherry blossom tree, his gaze calmly fixed on A Yin, and with a light flick of his fingertip, a pale green light drifted slowly toward that stalk of Blue Silver Grass.
The light merged into A Yin's branches and leaves; instantly, the Blue Silver Grass's foliage trembled slightly, as if it had sensed some kind of warm power.
Within A Yin's consciousness, that sense of weakness gradually receded, replaced by an unprecedented vitality and vigor.
"This... is this the power of the Life Law?" A surprised voice echoed within A Yin's consciousness.
Zhexian did not answer, merely saying indifferently, "Relying on this, it won't be long before you can recover your human form."
A Yin's branches and leaves swayed gently, as if expressing gratitude, and A Yin's consciousness looked at the white-clothed man before her with a face full of confusion.
Subsequently, Zhexian did not linger, turning to leave the cherry blossom forest with Guyuena and Tianmeng Bingcan.
After leaving the cherry blossom forest.
Guyuena looked at Zhexian and asked a question in confusion.
"Why did you save her just now?"
Regarding what had just happened, Guyuena was very puzzled by Zhexian's actions.
As the Master of all Soul Beasts, she was naturally very disgusted by Zhexian's extraction of Soul Beast life essence, but the scene just now made Guyuena completely unable to fathom what Zhexian was thinking...
Zhexian's gaze remained calm as he said indifferently, "I do things as I please. Helping her is only because she is useful to me."
Tianmeng Bingcan chimed in fawningly from the side.
"Exactly, exactly! Does a great god need you to understand their actions?"
Hearing this, Guyuena looked at Tianmeng Bingcan with cold eyes; a mere ice silkworm dares to provoke me?
Sensing Guyuena's icy gaze, Tianmeng Bingcan immediately shrank its neck, not daring to make another sound. Although it boasted of being a Million Year Soul Beast, in front of Guyuena, it still felt an invisible sense of oppression.
"Ditian and the others should be arriving soon."
Guyuena said casually.
"Ditian?!"
Who would have thought that upon hearing this name, Tianmeng Bingcan would immediately jump up again!
"The Beast God Ditian, the publicly recognized strongest on the Douluo Continent, the King of Million Year Soul Beasts, the head of the continent's Ten Great Fierce Beasts, the supreme ruler of the Star Dou Great Forest!"
Tianmeng Bingcan rattled off the introduction of Ditian in one breath, but there was one point it got wrong.
The supreme ruler of the Star Dou Great Forest was the Silver Dragon King Guyuena standing right before it!
Hearing Tianmeng Bingcan's words, the corners of Guyuena's mouth curled into a cold sneer, and a flash of disdain crossed her eyes: "You certainly know quite a lot."
"That's for sure, I am the only Million Year Soul Beast on the continent; even the legendary Silver Dragon King would have to be polite in front of me."
Tianmeng Bingcan twisted its body arrogantly, its eyes revealing an aura of being invincible under the heavens.
"Oh? Is that so?"
Guyuena smiled slightly.
The Silver Dragon King's aura was no longer held back at this moment, and a powerful bloodline pressure descended directly upon the Star Dou Great Forest.
Soul Beasts for thousands of kilometers around instantly collapsed to the ground, not daring to move, their eyes filled with awe and panic.
Sensing the majestic Silver Dragon King aura on Guyuena, Tianmeng Bingcan trembled all over in fright and blurted out: "Holy crap! Silver Dragon King?!"
Its originally arrogant spirit was instantly extinguished; its entire body curled into a ball, shivering as it looked at Guyuena, its eyes filled with terror and awe.
"Gr... Great One, I was just joking earlier, please don't take it seriously!" Tianmeng Bingcan stammered, its tone carrying a hint of fawning and pleading.
Guyuena glanced at it coldly, the corners of her mouth curling into a cold sneer: "Oh? Didn't you say that even I would have to be polite in front of you? What's wrong, not so arrogant now?"
Tianmeng Bingcan shook its head hurriedly, like a rattle-drum: "I wouldn't dare! I... no, your humble servant was just spouting nonsense earlier. You are magnanimous, please don't lower yourself to my level!"
Zhexian stood to the side, his gaze still calm, as if he did not care about this scene at all.
Just then, a low dragon roar came from afar, as if the entire Star Dou Great Forest were trembling because of it. Immediately after, a massive black figure descended from the sky, landing in front of Zhexian and Guyuena.
It was a huge black dragon, its entire body covered in pitch-black scales, its eyes like two burning flames, emitting a powerful aura. It was none other than the guardian of the Star Dou Great Forest—the Beast God Ditian.
After Ditian landed, his gaze first fell upon Guyuena, and a trace of respect flashed in his eyes: "Master, you have returned."
Guyuena nodded slightly, her tone carrying a hint of majesty: "Ditian, this is that person from over a decade ago."
Hearing this, Ditian turned his gaze toward Zhexian, a trace of vigilance flashing in his eyes. He could sense the unfathomable aura on Zhexian, as if he were not facing a person, but an insurmountable mountain.
Over a decade ago, he had also noticed Zhexian's presence, but at the time, it was too far from the core area, so he had not paid much attention.
"Master, Xiongjun and the others are still waiting for you."
Guyuena looked at Zhexian, seemingly asking if he wanted to go over.
Zhexian nodded, though his attention was focused on a certain corner of the continent...
At the same time.
Sunset Forest, the land of the Ice and Fire Dual Springs.
This was an extremely rare wonder on the Douluo Continent, where the Ice and Fire Dual Springs converged, and the powers of extreme cold and extreme heat fused perfectly here, forming a unique energy field.
Ever since Zhexian set up the Killing Array, apart from Tang San and his group who escaped using some unknown method, no other Soul Masters had entered this place.
However, right at the bottom of the Ice and Fire Dual Springs, a tiny crack quietly appeared.
From the crack, a cold and evil aura faintly seeped out, as if it were connected to another world.
Suddenly, the crack trembled slightly, and several strange-looking creatures crawled out from it.
Their bodies were dark red, their surfaces covered in hard, shell-like structures, their limbs were long and thin, their heads bore a pair of sharp antennae, and their eyes flickered with a scarlet light.
These creatures were low-level Abyssal Creatures from the Abyss Plane.
However, just as they stepped out of the crack, before they could even adapt to the environment of the Douluo Continent, they were swallowed by the extreme temperatures of the Ice and Fire Dual Springs.
The energy of extreme cold and extreme heat instantly eroded their bodies; the Abyssal Creatures let out shrill hisses, their bodies rapidly disintegrating into wisps of dark red energy, which were then thoroughly purified by the power of the Ice and Fire Dual Springs and dissipated into nothingness.
However, the death of these Abyssal Creatures did not stop the expansion of the crack.
On the contrary, with their deaths, the energy surging from the crack became even more concentrated, as if attracting more Abyssal Creatures to come.
And all of this was noticed by Zhexian.
……
PS: To explain, there really is nothing left to write about in the world of Douluo Dalu I, so I am forcing the plot of Douluo Dalu III to emerge.
