Di Tian gave some instructions, mainly to restrain the other ferocious beasts, especially Xiong Jun, who was naturally impatient and who knew what trouble he would cause once he left.

The main reason is to protect their safety. Don't be fooled by their strength and the title of one of the Ten Ferocious Beasts. If they are caught, they will still be killed.

After all the arrangements were completed, it was already the early morning of the next day.

Beside the Lake of Life, the morning mist had not yet completely dissipated, and the air was so fresh that it was invigorating.

Di Tian glanced at Zhou Xuan beside him: "It's time to go."

Zhou Xuan nodded. After a night's rest, his mental state had recovered considerably, and he was now able to stand calmly beside Di Tian.

Behind a large tree, a furry head peeked out; it was the auspicious beast that had not yet transformed into human form.

In fact, Zhou Xuan was very curious as to why the auspicious beast would transform into Jiang Nannan's appearance.

If nothing unexpected happens, the two of them should have never met before, right?

However, being captured by Di Tian was too sudden, and he hadn't had time to think about it carefully these past two days. But now it seems that he won't be staying in the Star Dou Great Forest for a short time, and he'll figure it out sooner or later.

Di Tian didn't say much. Spatial power surged, and a pitch-black crack appeared out of thin air.

He stepped in first, and Zhou Xuan took a deep breath and followed closely behind. Having learned from his previous experience, he was well-prepared.

Unlike before, this time the spatial traversal was much smoother, clearly due to Di Tian's intentional control. Moreover, with Di Tian's protection, Zhou Xuan would not be directly torn apart by the spatial passage.

In a short while, the two appeared on the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest, and in the distance, the outline of a human town could be vaguely seen.

Although Di Tian had tried to conceal his aura, his unique temperament made it hard for others not to notice him.

Di Tian frowned slightly; he was very uncomfortable with being watched like this.

With Zhou Xuan in a flash, he arrived at a secluded place. Away from the noise around him, he finally felt much more at ease.

"Senior Di Tian, ​​I want to go back to Shrek City. Don't worry, I promise I will come back." Even though he himself didn't believe such a statement.

Di Tian looked at him with disdain: "Address."

"what?"

"I'll call out the person you're looking for for you, so you don't have to go into the city and cause any trouble." Zhou Xuan had told him before that he needed to arrange something with his family, which was probably the old man he had sent away before.

And to be honest, he was worried about letting Zhou Xuan go back.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xuan understood. Di Tian was afraid that he would run away, or rather, that something might happen after he returned to the human world.

As for whether Di Tian would harm them, Zhou Xuan thought not. First of all, there was no need for it, since he still had to do things for Di Tian. Moreover, it was Shrek City, and even someone as strong as Di Tian would not want to fight with Mu En.

"Then it's Senior Lao."

Di Tian ignored him and turned to walk towards the Shrek City gate.

With his strength, as long as he doesn't cause too much of a commotion, he could wander around Shrek City without being discovered.

……

Sai City, Zhou Mansion.

Uncle Wang sat in his chair with a frown, watching the two little ones cultivate. Ever since his young master was kidnapped, he hadn't had a good night's sleep.

Suddenly, Uncle Wang froze, a strange sense of unease washing over him. His expression changed slightly; this feeling…

He was so familiar with this feeling!

He knew it so well that he would never forget it in his entire life.

The aura of the Emperor!
"Leave the city! Zhou Xuan is waiting for you!" Di Tian was too lazy to waste words. As soon as he finished speaking, he left the city. If he wasn't worried about being exposed if he stayed too far away, he wouldn't even want to go into Shrek City.

Wang Bo's pupils contracted. He couldn't be wrong about Di Tian's aura, so his words were most likely true.

"You two focus on your cultivation, I have some errands to run."

Xiao Nuan and Gou Dan both nodded, but they were a little puzzled as to why Uncle Wang, who was usually so composed, was suddenly in such a hurry.

Outside the city, Zhou Xuan waited quietly.

Before long, a familiar figure appeared in sight, moving at great speed and heading this way.

"Uncle Wang!" Zhou Xuan's heart warmed, and he quickly went to greet him.

Although it had only been two days since they last met, Wang Bo's face showed obvious signs of fatigue, clearly indicating that he had worried a lot about his affairs.

"Young Master!" When Uncle Wang saw Zhou Xuan's figure, he was stunned for a moment, then his face lit up with joy. He rushed to Zhou Xuan in three steps, his voice choked with emotion, "Young Master! You...you're alright! That's wonderful! That's wonderful!"

He looked Zhou Xuan up and down, and seeing that he was safe and sound, his heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down, but his eyes involuntarily reddened.

These past two days he's been worried that something might happen to Zhou Xuan, after all, Di Tian is no pushover.

Seeing that the person appeared in front of him safe and sound, he felt much more relieved.

Di Tian stood aside, watching the scene of the master and servant reunited with a blank expression, without much emotion in his heart.

Zhou Xuan patted Uncle Wang on the shoulder and reassured him, "I'm fine, Uncle Wang, I'm sorry to have worried you."

Wang Bo wiped his eyes, his excited mood calming down slightly. Only then did he notice the unfathomable Di Tian standing to the side, and his heart skipped a beat.

Zhou Xuan pulled Uncle Wang aside and whispered, "Uncle Wang, time is of the essence, so I'll get straight to the point."

He briefly recounted his agreement with Di Tian and the general outline of the Soul Spirit Project to Uncle Wang, omitting, of course, the parts about the Golden Ancient Tree and becoming a god.

It's not that I don't trust Uncle Wang, it's just that knowing too much isn't necessarily a good thing.

"Young Master, you know what you're doing!" Uncle Wang sighed. He couldn't offer much help with what Zhou Xuan was trying to do.

He took out several letters that he had prepared beforehand from his pocket and handed them to Uncle Wang.

"This is my arrangement for Xiaonuan and Gou Dan. You take them to Sai City first. There's a Soul Master Academy there. Although those two kids are talented, they don't have many peers around them. I originally planned to take them there myself, but it seems I won't have the chance now."
Once we get there, Gao Hongyu will teach Xiao Nuan swordsmanship. Uncle Wang, you keep an eye on things. As for other arrangements, they're all in here. We'll see after we leave Shrek Academy.”

"And about the matter I asked you to investigate before, if you find out anything, come directly to the Star Dou Great Forest, and Senior Di Tian will pass it on to me."

Zhou Xuan gave a long list of instructions, which Wang Bo carefully noted down. He nodded emphatically and said, "Don't worry, young master."

Wang Bo looked at Zhou Xuan with some concern.

The young master had arranged everything, except for his own.

It is evident that even Zhou Xuan himself was not entirely confident about staying in the Star Dou Great Forest.

He paused, but couldn't help but advise, "Young Master, do you really want to work with this senior..." Zhou Xuan smiled, "Uncle Wang, don't worry, I know what I'm doing. This Senior Di Tian, ​​although he is a Soul Beast Ruler, is not someone who can't distinguish right from wrong. I am in a cooperative relationship with him for the time being."

He patted Uncle Wang on the shoulder: "Alright, we don't have much time left, we should go now. Don't tell anyone you've seen us, we'll see each other again soon."

There was no other way; this was Emperor Tian's request.

Di Tian thought Zhou Xuan was very smart, so he was worried that Zhou Xuan would do something under his nose. Bringing him out was already a great risk, so it was even more impossible for him to contact Shrek Academy.

You have to understand, that old man Moon really is a threat to his existence.

A hint of reluctance flashed in Uncle Wang's eyes: "Young Master, please take care!"

After Wang Bo's figure disappeared into the distance, Di Tian slowly spoke: "Human emotions are truly complex."

Zhou Xuan withdrew his gaze and said calmly, "Senior, humans are not plants or trees; how can they be without feelings? May we begin searching for experimental subjects now?"

Di Tian glanced at him: "You're quite impatient."

"Regarding the experiments you mentioned, what are your plans for the human side?"

“Senior, I believe that if we are to conduct experiments on soul spirits, we will kill innocent people, whether they are soul beasts or humans. That is why I suggested that soul beasts whose lifespans are about to end participate in the experiments.”

Di Tian's eyebrows twitched slightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing with Zhou Xuan's statement.

In his long life, what did the life and death of mankind matter to him?

If it weren't for Zhou Xuan's attitude, we could have just grabbed a few people near the Star Dou Forest and called it a day; there would have been no need for all this trouble.

"I've already decided on my test subjects—evil spirit masters! They're the best experimental material."

"You've got some nerve, kid? You've even started plotting against me?"

Zhou Xuan nodded calmly: "How can this be considered exploitation? It's all consensual. Besides, if I'm not mistaken, the soul beast race doesn't have much affection for evil soul masters, right?"

As far as he knew, many evil spirit masters needed to kill a large number of spirit beasts to cultivate.

Di Tian narrowed his eyes, a bad memory flooding his mind.

More than a decade ago, two Soul Masters forcibly entered the Star Dou Great Forest, killed thousands of Soul Beasts, and then left triumphantly.

At that time, Di Tian was in seclusion, and it was only after he finished that he heard Bi Ji report this matter.

He wanted to take revenge afterward, but he couldn't find the person.

"That's right, we'll do it your way!"

Consider it revenge.

Using evil spirit masters for experiments would greatly reduce Zhou Xuan's mental burden. These people deserved to die anyway, and their only value was to contribute "power" to the advancement of the Soul Spirit Project.

"Evil Soul Masters... how are you going to find them? As far as I know, these people aren't easy to find, are they?"

Zhou Xuan grinned: "Of course, their main base is in Sun and Moon, where there are many evil soul masters. It's not easy to find rats hiding in the crowd, but if a group of rats gather together, it's much easier to find them."

Di Tian was no stranger to the Sun and Moon Continent. After all, he knew a lot about the wars between the two continents over the years, even though he was in the core of the Star Dou Great Forest.

"Going to the Sun and Moon Continent?"

“Exactly,” Zhou Xuan replied affirmatively. “Firstly, there are likely more evil spirit masters there, giving us a wider range of choices.”

Secondly, our actions there are less likely to attract the attention of the Douluo Continent, especially Shrek Academy.

Di Tian nodded slightly. Zhou Xuan's considerations were indeed thorough; he really didn't want to attract human attention.

Di Tian isn't necessarily afraid of Mu En alone. The real problem is that each generation of Sea God Pavilion Master can borrow the power of the Golden Tree. With the Golden Tree's protection, even Di Tian isn't entirely confident of defeating Mu En.

“Okay.” Di Tian agreed readily.

Before he finished speaking, he casually made a slash, and a bottomless rift immediately opened up in the space in front of him. Zhou Xuan only felt the scene before him suddenly blur, and an irresistible suction force suddenly erupted, pulling him in.

The Sun and Moon Continent is far away, but for Di Tian, ​​it's just a matter of a few teleportations.

After several traversals, Zhou Xuan finally stepped onto solid ground once again.

The overwhelming presence of soul power far surpassed that of the Douluo Continent, along with the completely different architectural style, all indicated that they had arrived.

Zhou Xuan looked around and saw that the two of them were standing on a desolate mountain ridge.

In the distance, the outline of a rather large city could be vaguely seen, its architectural style quite different from that of the Star Luo Empire.

"arrive."

The distance between the two continents was merely a matter of a few breaths for this person.

He was extremely envious of that ability to tear through space and travel thousands of miles in an instant.

If he could figure out the ins and outs, maybe he could even create a space teleportation soul tool.
The moment this thought arose, his heart was filled with a burning passion.

"Senior, evil spirit masters are secretive and usually don't expose themselves easily. However, this is the Sun Moon Empire, where there are many evil spirit masters. For them, cultivation requires resources, and for evil spirit masters, the best cultivation resource is humans."

"There are many evil spirit masters in the Sun and Moon region, so even if they hide well, finding them will be much easier than in the Star Luo region."

Zhou Xuan pointed to the clearly defined outline of the city in the distance: "Let's go and take a look at that city first."

Before the words were even finished, the two figures appeared at the city gate in a few flashes of light.

Unlike the simple and elegant architectural style of the Star Luo Empire, the city in front of us has exceptionally sharp lines in its buildings, with metal structures everywhere.

Looking at these things, Zhou Xuan couldn't help but feel uneasy.

The Sun and Moon Continent is practically on the verge of the Industrial Revolution, while the Three Kingdoms in the Star Luo region are still struggling in the mud.

No wonder that in the original story, three against one were completely crushed, and even the appearance of a cheat-like figure like Huo Yuhao was useless. If it weren't for that nobody personally getting involved, this continent would probably have truly changed hands.

Just as Zhou Xuan was secretly complaining, Di Tian, ​​who was beside him, released his terrifying mental power without warning.

Di Tian stood still, his aura completely undisturbed.

In the blink of an eye, his vast and unparalleled spiritual power had silently spread out, completely enveloping the entire massive city.

Everything in the city, from the main streets and alleys to the comings and goings of people and vehicles, and even the chirping of insects and the scurrying of mice in the corners, was reflected in his perception in every detail.

A moment later, Di Tian's calm and unwavering voice rang out: "You're right, there are indeed quite a few rats here. To the southeast, on the outskirts of the city, there's an abandoned mine where many are hiding." (End of Chapter)
