Douluo: Wuhun Qimen Formation, control everything!

"But..." Old Master Xuan could only utter half a sentence.

Di Tian had lost interest in listening any further. He had only listened to Elder Xuan and Uncle Wang for so long because of Zhou Xuan.

After all, he hadn't met such an interesting person in a long time.

However, his patience had run out. If it had been Mu En who came, he might have shown some respect, but it was Elder Xuan who came.

Sorry, in Di Tian's eyes, Elder Xuan is no different from anyone else on the roadside.

He didn't even make any extra movements; he simply raised his hand casually and gently waved it in the direction of Elder Xuan and Uncle Wang.

Without any earth-shattering noise, Zhou Xuan only felt the space around him distort slightly, and the next instant, the figures of Elder Xuan and Uncle Wang disappeared from their original positions.

Zhou Xuan's heart tightened suddenly, and he caught his breath. Could it be that he killed them?

Although I might be a little sad that Elder Xuan is dead, it's only a little, considering that the two of us only spent a little over a year together.

But Uncle Wang had been by his side since he was born, and was closer to him than his parents, with whom he hadn't spent much time.

Seeing the expression on Zhou Xuan's face, Di Tian's lips curled up almost imperceptibly.

For so many years, no one has ever dared to show such an expression in front of him.

Zhou Xuan immediately performed a divination.

"Phew~"

Knowing that the two were alright, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing his expression, Di Tian couldn't help but feel a hint of curiosity in his eyes.

He could guarantee that, given Zhou Xuan's strength, he would absolutely not be able to sense what he had just done.

Isn't he afraid that he might kill those two people?

The auspicious beast beside Di Tian seemed to sense something, blinked excitedly, and tugged at Di Tian's sleeve.

"It's him! It's definitely him!"

Some noisy sounds rang in Di Tian's mind.

Di Tian nodded helplessly: "Let's go back."

As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for Zhou Xuantong's agreement, he waved his hand and tore open a spatial rift.

He led Zhou Xuan and the auspicious beast inside.

Xiong Jun, who remained where he was, breathed a sigh of relief.

His bear-like face visibly relaxed considerably.

There's no reason why a ferocious beast of his level can't appear in the mixed zone. This is a rule set by Di Tian. After all, a ferocious beast of his level can make a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast faint on the spot just by the pressure it exudes.

Normally it wouldn't be a big deal, after all, Di Tian isn't some kind of god who can watch over them 24/7.

It's okay to sneak out occasionally.

But this time, by sheer coincidence, he bumped into Di Tian, ​​which made him extremely nervous.

But now it seems like everything is fine?

The bear looked somewhat pleased.

However, it soon realized that it had been too happy.

"Bear King, come find me later." Although the Emperor Beast was gone, its voice lingered in his ears.

His bear-like face visibly slumped down again.

His fur twitched involuntarily; he could already imagine his fate.

Although Di Tian is the number one ferocious beast, soul beasts are all impatient, and Di Tian is no exception.

He was naturally warlike, but he dared not fight those he couldn't defeat in the Star Dou Great Forest. The only beasts he could defeat, apart from Xiong Jun, were basically shattered at the slightest touch.

Therefore, Xiong Jun could already imagine what he would face next.

The core area of ​​the Star Forest.

Zhou Xuan felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, followed by a dizzying spin.

It felt as if I had been thrown into a high-speed spinning washing machine, and then an indescribable feeling of being squeezed came from all directions.

A churning sensation in my stomach rushed straight to my throat.

"Well……"

The nausea grew stronger and stronger, and finally, just when Zhou Xuan felt he was about to vomit, his eyes lit up.

It's finally over. My feet are on solid ground.

Zhou Xuan bent down, leaned against a towering ancient tree, and gagged violently a few times.

I almost threw up.

My mouth feels sour right now.

So uncomfortable!

Di Tian stood with his hands behind his back, calmly watching Zhou Xuan's disheveled appearance. He did it on purpose, as a little bit of mischievous fun.

The auspicious beast smiled and looked at Zhou Xuan, its face slightly hidden.

Zhou Xuan took a while to calm himself down before he felt better. He shook his head, and the scenery around him gradually became clearer.

Towering ancient trees pierce the clouds, and the air is filled with a life energy so rich it's almost tangible. Just a gentle breath is enough to invigorate the spirit and make one feel much more relaxed throughout the body.

The vitality it possessed was even greater than the one I felt when I absorbed the essence of the Golden Tree.

Not far away, a golden lake lay quietly, its surface undisturbed, yet radiating a breathtakingly powerful vitality.

"This is what you humans call the core of the Star Dou Great Forest, but I prefer to call it the Lake of Life."

Since he had already been captured, Zhou Xuan had no choice but to accept his fate.

Although he has many tricks up his sleeve.

But as the saying goes, in the face of absolute power, any means are futile.

So, since we're already here, we might as well see what's going on.

Zhou Xuan walked over to a stool and sat down.

The sense of relaxation even made Di Tian think that Zhou Xuan had been here before.

"Senior Emperor Tian, ​​just tell me straight. What do you want with me here? Do you want to kill me or torture me? Give me a quick death."

Upon hearing this, Di Tian remained expressionless, but felt somewhat embarrassed inside.

To be honest, he didn't know what he wanted to do with this human.

After all, it was said by the auspicious beast that this human might be able to change the fate of the soul beast race.

So he wanted to see what this human looked like.

However, he didn't quite believe it, after all, he knew some secrets about why the soul beast race had fallen to such a state.

Even that person couldn't do it, so what can a mere human do?
If it weren't for the auspicious beast that said those words, he would have slapped it long ago.

However, he still spoke stiffly, "Do you think it would be so complicated for me to kill you?"

Zhou Xuan nodded; he didn't believe that Di Tian had brought him here to kill him.

He asked that question simply to try and get some information out of the other person.

Since the other party did not immediately kill, they must have something in mind.

"Senior Emperor Tian, ​​you went to all this trouble to kidnap me, surely you didn't come here just to show me off at the Lake of Life?" Zhou Xuan shrugged, trying to appear more relaxed.

It would be a lie to say you weren't nervous in the face of such a presence.

Di Tian didn't answer immediately; he was indeed somewhat... unsure of what to say.

This whole thing was the auspicious beast's idea from beginning to end; to put it bluntly, he was just a tool. "Di Tian, ​​it's him! I can sense it! He can help us!" The auspicious beast's voice rang in their ears.

Zhou Xuan looked at the girl who looked almost exactly like Jiang Nannan.

He didn't believe it was any coincidence.

He looked at Zhou Xuan: "The auspicious beast says that you can change the fate of the soul beast race."

Zhou Xuan: "..."

A mythical beast?

Zhou Xuan finally understood, but the auspicious beast looked like this?

In the original story, the auspicious beast was in the form of Wang Dong'er, but now it's in the form of Jiang Nannan. But I don't have any interaction with the auspicious beast.

How did it transform into Jiang Nannan's appearance?

This left Zhou Xuan completely baffled.

He's not one to dwell on things; if he can't think of something, he can't think of it.

"Senior Di Tian, ​​are you serious?"

Can the fate of the Soul Beast race be changed?

He had thought about it, but it was just an idea, and he had never told anyone about it. It was something that was still far from being realized, so how did you know?
"I don't believe it either, but I have no choice but to believe what the auspicious beast says," Di Tian said calmly.

"The auspicious beast says you can do it, so, can you do it?"

After all, besides its special status, even he couldn't fathom the power of destiny emanating from the auspicious beast.

Zhou Xuan rested his chin on his hand and looked at the Lake of Life.

Di Tian wasn't in a hurry; the person was right under his nose and couldn't escape.

After a long while, Zhou Xuan looked up and stared directly at Di Tian.

"Di Tian, ​​do you want to become a god?"

The air seemed to freeze the moment Zhou Xuan uttered those words.

The golden surface of the Lake of Life, which was originally completely still, rippled slightly at this moment.

Somewhere underground, a faint, silvery-white light shone.

A change finally appeared on Di Tian's face: "Boy, becoming a god? Do you even know what a god is?"

"boom--!"

The invisible pressure, like a tangible giant wave, swept outwards in all directions.

The stone bench beneath Zhou Xuan instantly turned to dust, and he felt an immense force, like Mount Tai pressing down on him.

"I know!" But he still gritted his teeth and answered Di Tian.

The aura emanating from Di Tian only lasted for a moment before he forcibly suppressed it.

For Di Tian, ​​who has lived for 800,000 years, the allure of becoming a god is unimaginable.

He wanted to become a god!
Even in my wildest dreams!

Why have the Soul Beast race fallen to such a state? It's because they can't become gods. Back when the Dragon God was alive, how could the Soul Beasts have lived such a miserable life?

But, is this possible?

The God Realm's rejection of soul beasts was something even that one person couldn't resist.

What gives this human being the right to do this?
"Humans," Di Tian slowly began, "do you know what the word 'god' means to us soul beasts?"

In his voice, there was a faint hope... one that even he himself was unaware of.

Maybe there really is hope?

"This means that the Soul Beast race may have a completely new way out."

He paused, then continued, "The reason why soul beasts cannot become gods is not because they lack the aptitude, but because of the deliberate restrictions imposed by the God Realm. Am I right?"

Di Tian's pupils contracted again!
How could this pitifully weak human know such a thing?
Now he's starting to believe it.

"Why should I believe you?" Di Tian asked in a deep voice.

Zhou Xuan shrugged: "I'm right here, I can't go anywhere. I'm just saying this, and you can just listen to it. Whether you believe it or not is up to you. Anyway, I don't have any other choice right now."

"Speak," Di Tian waved his hand, and two stone benches and a stone table appeared out of thin air. He sat opposite Zhou Xuan, waiting for him to continue.

"Having reached your level, you must know about the existence of world consciousness, right?"

Di Tian nodded. Indeed, that was the case. The great calamity that soul beasts experienced every 100,000 years was a rule imposed by the world's consciousness.

"Since that's the case, you must also know that Shrek Academy's golden ancient tree is actually the embodiment of the entire Douluo Continent's world consciousness. Tell me, if you were to devour it, wouldn't you advance even further?"

Zhou Xuan was already troubled about how to destroy that tree, since, to be precise, that tree was no longer part of the Douluo Continent's world consciousness.

The true world consciousness resides in the seed within him.

When the Golden Tree is destroyed, and he replants the seeds, a new world consciousness will be born.

That's why I came up with this idea.

After all, in the myths of my past life, there was also a black dragon named Nidhogg!
Although Di Tian is not even a fraction of the opponent's power, and the Golden Ancient Tree is not as powerful as the World Tree, it is not impossible to emulate the ancient sages.

Zhou Xuan's words, "If you swallow him, will you advance further?" exploded in Di Tian's heart like a thunderbolt.

He has lived for 800,000 years, what storms haven't he seen?

But he had never even considered the idea of ​​"devouring the ancient golden tree".

"The Golden Tree is the embodiment of the continent's consciousness. If I devour it, who can guarantee what will become of this world?" Di Tian's voice was icy.

"Nothing will happen!" Zhou Xuan could absolutely guarantee that, after all, destroying the Golden Ancient Tree was the will of the World Consciousness itself.

"How do you know?" Di Tian stared intently at Zhou Xuan, trying to read something from his eyes.

However, he was disappointed.

After all, Zhou Xuan was telling the truth.

"I'm sorry, I can't say."

Di Tian frowned.

"Based on your few words alone, I cannot believe you, nor can I gamble with the entire soul beast race for myself."

Zhou Xuan laughed, "Senior Di Tian, ​​my life is in your hands. Do you think I would joke about my own life like this?"

To be honest, if we could get Di Tian on our side, our plans would be much smoother.

“You certainly don’t dare, but as I said, I can’t gamble with the fate of the entire soul beast race.”

At this moment, the auspicious beast beside him spoke up: "Di Tian, ​​what he said might be true."

Ditian was silent.

The auspicious beast's words made Di Tian waver again.

In fact, a large part of the reason he rejected Zhou Xuan was that he felt Zhou Xuan's idea was indeed feasible!
He thought for a while, then shook his head: "Even so, I can't believe you, after all, you're human."

Zhou Xuan nodded. He didn't really expect Di Tian to agree immediately. Anyway, it seemed he would have to stay here for a while, and it was still too early to destroy the Golden Tree.

He has plenty of time.

"In that case, Senior Di Tian, ​​let's talk about something else, about how I changed the fate of the Soul Beast race."

Di Tian didn't even frown: "Isn't what you just said about this matter?"

In his view, as long as he could become a god, the situation faced by the soul beast race would improve.

Zhou Xuan shook his head: "No, and what gave you the idea that becoming a god would change the fate of the soul beast race?"

To be honest, that's not realistic. (End of Chapter)
