Chapter 121: The War Begins, Fishing in Troubled Waters

Chen Xin's expression was solemn as he spoke about the beast tide.

The terrifying Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear King that killed a 94th-level Titled Douluo with one claw and split the hundred-meter city wall of Tiandou City! Four other terrifying soul beast kings that hadn't taken action yet and could transform into human form.

Millions of soul beasts...

These words were spoken slowly from Chen Xin's mouth, causing everyone belonging to the Spirit Empire to change color.

Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo looked at each other, their hearts filled with horror.

They had entered the Star Dou Great Forest many times, hunting the 100,000-year Soft Bone Rabbit, Tai Tan Giant Ape, and Azure Bull Python. Although they had never succeeded once, it was enough to prove the terrifying combat power of those 100,000-year soul beasts.

But now, Chen Xin said that such a terrifying soul beast combat power was still dormant within the Star Dou Great Forest. How could this not shock the two of them!

Cold sweat broke out on both of their foreheads, and they felt that being able to survive coming out of the Star Dou Great Forest was truly a very lucky thing.

Qian Jun and Jiang Mo Douluo's hearts were also pounding; such things truly exceeded their cognition over many years.

Only Bibi Dong, after hearing Chen Xin's words, had a flash of brilliance explode in her eyes! She was still feeling heartache for letting the Tai Tan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python escape, and she didn't expect that a beast tide had broken out right now! And there were at least five soul beasts whose cultivation exceeded the 100,000-year level!

For her, wasn't this also good news! As for the beast tide being powerful, and the low-level soul masters of the Spirit Empire likely being unable to resist, losing the lives of countless low-level soul masters?

What did that have to do with her! As long as she could obtain soul rings and soul bones, complete herself, and finish that final assessment to become a god, what did it matter if the entire continent was buried with her? Bibi Dong knew very well that the launch of such a fierce beast tide was a battle between humans and soul beasts.

Although she was powerful, she couldn't resist such a terrifying beast tide alone! Naturally, she still needed to borrow the power of others to seek profit for herself.

She put on a solemn expression and said to Chen Xin and the others in front of her: "Is this true?"

Chen Xin shook his head with a bitter smile, "Pope, if it weren't so, why would we abandon Tiandou City and bring Emperor Xue Ye to the Spirit Empire?"

Bibi Dong nodded and said domineeringly: "The soul beast race actually dares to do such things that anger both gods and men! All members of the Spirit Empire, prepare for war, and meet the beast tide!"

"Chen Xin, Gu Rong, since you have come to my Spirit Empire, you naturally understand the principle that when the lips are gone, the teeth are cold!"

"This battle is a racial war between humans and soul beasts! You will also be incorporated into the Spirit Empire's team to intercept the beast tide!"

Hearing this, Chen Xin and the others nodded slowly. From the moment they decided to come to the Spirit Empire, they had already made this preparation in their hearts.

Now, among the several major forces and empires on the entire continent, the only one that could resist the beast tide was the current Spirit Empire! The grudges between empires were completely not worth mentioning in the face of human survival.

Humans were always a strange race; without external forces, they would naturally think of infighting.

And in the face of racial survival, they could quickly cast aside these grudges and twist into a rope to resolve this external struggle.

"Ghost Douluo, you are good at hiding, go ahead and scout the situation of the beast tide first!"

"Qian Jun, Jiang Mo, go and invite the several elders in the Douluo Hall and Qian Renxue to the Pope Palace to discuss matters."

"Chrysanthemum Douluo, pass the news to all the Red-Clothed Cardinals, and let all the soul masters of the Spirit Hall prepare for war!"

"Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo, please come with me into the Pope Palace first and explain in detail the situation of the several fierce beast leaders leading the beast tide."

Order after order was issued from Bibi Dong's mouth in an orderly manner. This empress who controlled the entire Spirit Empire displayed her terrifying control at this moment.

The entire Spirit Empire was like a terrifying machine, operating at high speed.

Three days later, the densely packed soul beasts, led by Di Tian and the several fierce beasts, approached the Spirit Empire.

The moment they arrived here, a thick anger rose in Di Tian's heart.

Outside the Spirit Empire, he sensed the aura finally emitted after the Three-Eyed Golden Lion fell, which was heading towards the Spirit Empire! He "saw" that around the Spirit Hall, the core building of the Spirit Empire, the aura of the power of fate was densely spread.

These powers of fate lingered around the Spirit Hall, forming a sharp contrast with the surrounding buildings.

Although the aura of these powers of fate was already somewhat thin, there was no power of fate displayed elsewhere.

Clearly, this was because the people in this building had used special means to cover up a lot of the power of fate after killing Little Golden Lion!

Di Tian knew that within this building, there were people who could do this to such an extent!

But in the eyes of Di Tian, the power of fate of the Star Dou Great Forest was like a bright lighthouse, attracting his gaze at all times.

Everything was clear! He looked at the dozen or so figures on the city wall, and among these figures, he saw the woman who had made him feel wary last time in the Star Dou Great Forest!

Pope Bibi Dong! However, this time, Di Tian did not retreat again! The power of fate of the Star Dou Great Forest must be taken back! The soul beast race must show its strength.

"The Emperor Auspicious Beast, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, fell here." "The power of fate of the Star Dou Great Forest is now in the city behind."

Di Tian's figure floated in mid-air, and he said coldly: "For the sake of the soul beast race, kill!"

"Roar!!"

Xiong Jun roared, directly revealing his body, which was like a mountain, roared, and stood in the air.

A verdant green figure spread its wings and rose slowly; it was the Emerald Swan Bi Ji. She spread her wings behind her, green light shining brightly, waves of emerald green feathers flowing with light, constantly expanding, and soon turned into huge wings with a span of over a hundred meters.

Wan Yao Wang also rose into the sky, his long hair fluttering, extending for dozens of meters, his cold aura not inferior to Xiong Jun, who was like a mountain.

Beside him was the Hell Demon Dragon King, Zi Ji, who also appeared in human form!

Xiong Jun roared, and just as he was about to strike first, a figure rushed into the sky from above the Spirit Empire and killed towards Xiong Jun.

This figure looked only thirty or forty years old, with a very handsome appearance, calm and indifferent. He was taller but not robust, wearing a simple gray robe, with black long hair draped behind his head, combed very neatly. Although his attire was so simple, just standing there gave people a feeling of worship.

Compared to Xiong Jun's terrifying figure, this figure was very small, but the violent aura on his body was not inferior to Xiong Jun. The three pairs of golden angel wings behind him scattered golden light.

This person was the Hall Master of the Douluo Hall, the Great Elder of the Spirit Hall, Qian Daoliu! The soul beast race and humans very tacitly chose to pit soldier against soldier and general against general!

The moment Xiong Jun and Qian Daoliu met, they dragged the battle directly into the high sky, and terrifying fluctuations erupted in the high sky, which also became the signal for the start of this battle.

Wan Yao Wang rushed out, Gu Rong and Chen Xin attacked simultaneously, flying towards the sky to intercept Wan Yao Wang! Zi Ji was dragged by Qian Jun Douluo, Jiang Mo Douluo, and Ling Yuan Douluo, and the battle started on the other side of the battlefield.

Di Tian's eyes flashed with golden light, his gaze directly meeting Bibi Dong's.

Bibi Dong did not speak, looked at Golden Crocodile Douluo beside her, and rushed into the sky, looking at Di Tian, the emperor of the Star Dou Great Forest, from afar.

As for Bi Ji, a verdant green light flashed, adding status to everyone, and simultaneously adding status to the countless soul beasts behind her. The combat power of the Qian Jun Ant brothers, who were originally at the 90,000-year level, directly broke through to the 100,000-year level, and they fought hard to attack the city gate.

Ghost, Chrysanthemum, and a group of Titled Douluo, under the call of the Young Master of the Spirit Empire, Qian Renxue, led the soul masters of the Spirit Empire to formally engage in battle with these soul beasts.

"Boom!!"

Terrifying tremors erupted from the sky. This shocking great war, under the intentional promotion of the leaders of both sides, was on the verge of breaking out! The entire battlefield was divided into several major areas. High above the sky, a thousand meters up, was the battle between a group of Titled Douluo and several Great Fierce Beasts.

And outside the Spirit Hall City, Bi Ji led a million soul beasts, frantically launching an impact on the city.

Bibi Dong had long had the ambition to annex the continent, and the Spirit Empire raised tens of thousands of low-level soul masters!

But these low-level soul masters could not be compared with a million soul beasts at all!

If it weren't for the prestige of the Ghost and Chrysanthemum martial soul fusion skill, relying on the convenience of the city gate, and the joint efforts of Tuobaxi and other leaders of the new Upper Three Sects, the city gate of the Spirit Empire would have been broken by these soul beast armies at the first moment! Even so, the Spirit Empire side was still constantly being pushed back.

Blood flowed like a river, and the entire battlefield was like a huge meat grinder at this time. Soul beasts and soul masters were dying every moment.

While the outside world was fighting until the sky fell and the earth cracked, in a corner within the Spirit Hall of the Spirit Hall City, a black portal quietly opened, and then instantly closed.

Ye Ming, who used the Hidden Scale Gu to hide his figure, quietly slipped out of the Fox Immortal Blessed Land.

When he saw the great war erupting outside and the scene of the space collapsing from the battle of Xiong Jun and the several fierce beasts in the sky, a smile appeared on his face.

"The war has finally started!" A flash of brilliance passed through Ye Ming's eyes, "My soul ring is also here!"

During these days of cultivating in the Fox Immortal Blessed Land, Ye Ming's soul foundation had made huge progress under the nourishment of the three great secret realms. Just by relying on soul perception, he could detect that the souls of countless soul masters and soul beasts dying on the battlefield outside were wailing.

"After my harvest this time, the Courage Gu on the Danghun Shan has decreased a lot. In the long run, the output of Courage Gu will definitely decrease."

"The souls on the battlefield right now are the nourishment for the Danghun Shan!"

While paying attention to the battle above, Ye Ming activated the Soul-Gathering Gu and began to absorb the souls of these dead soul masters and soul beasts on the battlefield.

He didn't let go of the high-level soul beast corpses either. Whenever there was an opportunity, he quietly collected them into the system space.

These were all...

He had always been a thrifty person and couldn't bear to waste anything.
