Douluo Continent: I, the world's greatest immortal master, have taken Ning Rongrong as my disci

hum-

squeak~

roar~
Deep in the Star Forest.

A wave of terrifying pressure descended.

As if triggered by some invisible command, the ancient soul beasts in the forest scattered wildly towards the outside of the mixed circle, running aimlessly and uttering terrified whimpers.

These high-level soul beasts desperately channeled their soul power to escape, their usual invincible aura vanished, leaving only their panicked backs. As they fled to the outer and inner edges of the mixed zone, they caused panic among the thousand-year and hundred-year soul beasts, making a chaotic wave of soul beasts seem inevitable.

But just as the disturbance of these soul beasts reached the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest, the soul beasts seemed to have run into an invisible barrier, unable to enter the territory inhabited by humans.

The culprits behind this scene were none other than the goddesses of Peach Blossom Spring who had rushed over from Shrek Academy in a fit of rage.

What Tang Wutong retrieved from her spiritual sea of ​​consciousness was a grand forest wedding related to her teacher, Su Ran.

This incident drove them almost crazy.

The oppressive aura and divine power they exerted along the way were hardly diminished.

Wherever he went, people worshipped him, and the spirit master Chang Gong was as if witnessing a divine miracle.

In the flooded areas, the old village chief had already organized the villagers to build a platform made of bluestone slabs on the highest nearby hillside. In the center, they placed neatly arranged sandalwood and pine branches into a three-legged bronze cauldron, and led the villagers in calling out:
"Water God, please calm your anger!"

"Poseidon, calm your anger!"

"May the gods have mercy on all living beings and quell the flood!"

In some places, the drought is severe. The scorching sun hangs in the sky, burning the earth so much that it cracks with spiderweb-like patterns. The rice seedlings in the fields have long since withered and turned into brittle bundles of firewood. Even the leaves of the old locust tree at the village entrance have curled into yellowish tubes and drooped listlessly. There is not even a breath of wind.

Having witnessed a miracle, they built a high platform overnight on the dry riverbank and called upon the water god and the sea god for blessings.

The indignant Shuiyue was left behind to solve the problems of floods and drought for the common people. Her little mouth pursed, clearly unhappy.
"Scream, scream, all you do is scream, trying to take advantage of me, the Sea God, huh?"

"I'm so busy."

"Normally, we don't manage floods; when disaster strikes, we pray to the gods."

"What God owes you?"

"Know that relying on oneself is worse than seeking divine intervention. With countless generations of descendants and endless human effort, one can change the world over thousands of years!"

……

When the goddesses of Peach Blossom Spring arrived at the Star Dou Great Forest, everyone was on high alert. No one slacked off. They released all their divine senses to conduct a thorough search of the core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest. Even an ant on the roadside was scanned to make sure there was nothing suspicious.

The Great Evil Land isn't particularly large, as it's located in the heart of the forest and its territory is shrinking. But it's not small either, considering it can accommodate multiple giant beasts tens or hundreds of meters long. A single beast's territory would require at least tens of square kilometers, so the Great Evil Land must be several hundred square kilometers in size. Add to that the ancient trees reaching for the sky and the rampant spirit beasts, and it's indeed difficult to search.

But these problems are not problems for the goddesses of Peach Blossom Spring who are eager to attend their teacher's wedding.

In just a few hours, they turned the dangerous place upside down, knowing exactly how many ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts there were, what their species and attributes were, and how many dens each had.

Even several high-level ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts that were engaged in strenuous physical activity and reproduction were interrupted by their divine power, for example:
Non-still image—A male tiger is on top of a female tiger, enjoying themselves immensely, when suddenly both tigers are stunned. A terrifying pressure sweeps over them, causing the male tiger to shrink back in fear.

It was precisely their all-out effort that completely dispelled the mystery of the ominous place.

The lake of life, hidden beneath ancient trees, has been revealed.

"Deep within the core of this Starry Sky Forest, there is indeed another world hidden."

"Back when we were Soul Masters, we often came to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for Soul Rings, so how come we never discovered such a lush lake here?"

"It smells of peach blossoms... Look, there are still peach trees! The teacher was indeed hiding here!"

"My goodness, there are such beautiful red cherry blossoms! Where did you find them?"

"This is terrible, senior sister! Look, there's a red carpet and a phoenix coronet and embroidered robe here. Aren't these wedding items?"

"Did the teacher really hide here and secretly marry someone?"

"Damn it, have we been tricked by the teacher?!"

When Ning Rongrong, Qian Renxue, Shui Bing'er, and Huo Wu burned through a dense forest of mist and entered the Lake of Life area, they saw a vast space shrouded in towering trees.

Surrounding this lake, a faint fragrance of peach blossoms filled the air, and there was a grove of red cherry trees that looked to have been recently transplanted, with red cloths draped over the trees and red carpets laid out beneath them.

Especially on Peach Blossom Island in the middle of the lake, the decorations are exactly the same as those of a bridal chamber—the wedding night, the dragon robe and phoenix dress are all there.

However, they searched the Lake of Life area several times but found no one there; it was completely empty. Clearly, the teacher had anticipated that they would find this place and had flown away.

This infuriated Huo Wu and the others, who cursed Su Ran a thousand times over in their hearts.

"It seems that the teacher has been gone for some time, and Tang Wutong is just a messenger that the teacher deliberately sent back."

“Look at these stone benches, they’re so huge, they don’t look like they’re meant for people to sit on.”

"Could the disciple our teacher accepted this time be a soul beast?"

"That's unlikely. Even spirit beasts can't break through level 100, how can they fight us? Only if our teacher trains a few more god-level disciples can they possibly defeat us."

"Please, this is deep within the Star Dou Great Forest, what else could it be but soul beasts?"

"Don't forget who our teacher is. If others can't teach soul beasts, do you think our teacher can't?"

……

While the other junior sisters were observing the environment of the Lake of Life and discussing what powerful individuals their teacher had trained to deal with them, Xiao Wu stood on an ancient tree and whistled. The whistle echoed through the forest, carrying for an unknown distance:

"Da Ming, Er Ming, why don't you come out and see me?"

After a while.

First came a dull tremor from underground, as if the earth itself was shaking.

Immediately following, a deafening roar resounded, and a colossal Titan ape rose from the ground like a moving mountain. Its form was somewhere between an ape and a monkey, its body covered in thick, black-gold muscles, bulging like small hills, each brimming with explosive power. Its eyes gleamed with a golden light, and with each step it took, the earth trembled, and the surrounding trees shook violently from its ferocious aura.

At the same time, enormous ripples spread across Star Lake in the core area. The lake water began to boil, and two azure bull horns slowly emerged from the water. Then, a massive bull's head rose from the water, its body rising like a undulating mountain ridge. Its scales gleamed with a cold, eerie light in the sunlight, and its serpentine tail swept across the lake, creating waves tens of meters high. The colossal body of the Azure Bull Python stood above the lake, its immense pressure covering an area of ​​several kilometers in radius.

Since Xiao Wu became a disciple of Taoyuan, her fate has been fundamentally reversed. She has not experienced the tragedy of sacrifice, and the forest king, Titan Giant Ape, and Azure Bull Python have also lived peacefully for ten thousand years, sleeping in the core area.

After Xiao Wu became a god, she sought opportunities to help them, enabling them to safely pass through the heavenly tribulation. Her cultivation level improved rapidly, and she is now approaching 200,000 years of cultivation, making her an unparalleled being in the Star Dou Great Forest.

But these two overlords, who had been dormant for many years, trembled upon hearing the sound waves coming from the depths of the forest. The two beasts met on the edge of a hillside, staring at each other wide-eyed:

"Da Ming, am I not mistaken? This is Sister Xiao Wu's assembly post?"

"It is indeed the rabbit whistle tune that Aunt Rou blew for us back then. Besides Aunt Rou, only Sister Xiao Wu knows it. And this fluctuation is more rapid and faster than Aunt Rou's, so it is most likely Sister Xiao Wu."

"Little Wu! The giant black ape is here!"

The two enormous soul beasts darted through the forest and soon reunited with Xiao Wu, following the sound of the whistle.

Seeing Xiao Wu's divine figure, the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape were both moved and somewhat envious. Good heavens, even after ten thousand years, they still found it incredible that Sister Xiao Wu had become a god. She must be the first person in hundreds of thousands of years to successfully become a god after transforming into a human.

However, Xiao Wu didn't call them over just to reminisce.

Xiao Wu glanced at the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, exchanged a few pleasantries, and then got straight to the point:

"Da Ming, Er Ming, I've called you here today because I have something I want to ask you."

"Have you seen a man around here recently who is extremely handsome and whose figure is not like that of an ordinary person? That is my teacher."

Titan Ape shook its head:
"The Star Dou Great Forest has indeed been unsettled lately. Even in the core area, many human soul masters have broken in. I was disturbed twice, but I haven't seen Immortal Master Su. Could it be that Immortal Master Su has come to the Star Dou Great Forest?"

"Hehe, I've been wanting to meet him for a while now. I only saw Master Su from afar back then, and he was indeed incredibly handsome. I still can't forget him."

Although its cultivation level had skyrocketed, the Titan Giant Ape's simple-mindedness made Xiao Wu shake her head in disbelief.

The Azure Bull Python was definitely smarter:

"Sister Xiaowu, some time ago, I was lying in wait beneath Star Lake and vaguely sensed the aura of several True Gods descending from the continent. Could it be that Immortal Master Su has encountered trouble? Do you need our help?"

"Master Su established the Spirit Transmission Tower and created the spirit form, allowing the dying and near-death spirit beasts to continue living in spirit form. This also reduced the frequency of spirit masters hunting spirit beasts. To us spirit beasts, he is a benefactor. If he needs help, we will risk our lives to help him."

"Sister Xiaowu, tell us, what do you need us to do?"

Although the Azure Bull Python was clever, it still underestimated the limits of Little Dance's abilities.

Xiao Wu felt a little embarrassed by what she said:

Sorry, the crisis the teacher is in is caused by us.

Xiao Wu echoed what the Azure Bull Python said:

"Just as Da Ming said, our teacher is in danger and has been kidnapped by an unknown powerhouse deep in the Star Dou Great Forest. Do you know what kind of soul beasts used to live here?"

Upon hearing this, the Titan Ape pounded its chest in fury.

Laser light also shot from the blue eyes of the Azure Bull Python:
"They actually dared to touch Master Su?!"

"Sister Xiaowu, to be honest, this place is called the Land of Great Misfortune, and powerful soul beasts have indeed appeared here before."

"Actually, ten thousand years ago, when Sister Xiaowu was still a soul beast, she also saw the ferocious beasts here. However, at that time, we did not know where they came from or what kind of beings they were. Aunt Rou also forbade us to explore this place and listed it as a forbidden area."

“But ever since you and Sister Xiaowu ascended, several times during that period, powerful soul beasts emerged from the perilous land to investigate the situation. Their cultivation levels were much higher than mine and Erming’s.”

"Later, we learned their names from the legends of human soul masters around the Star Dou Great Forest. They were the Ten Ferocious Beasts, the soul beasts with the highest cultivation on the continent."

"But I never expected that they would dare to attack Master Su. Even if we search the entire Star Dou Great Forest, we will find them!"

The Azure Bull Python told Xiao Wu what it knew.

"Don't you know where they went either?"

Have they already left the Star Dou Great Forest?

"You may all leave now. You have no say in this matter. Stay within your own territory for the time being, minimize your outings, and protect yourselves."

Disappointed at not getting the information she wanted, Xiao Wu told the Titan Ape and the Azure Bull Python to be careful before turning and entering the Lake of Life.

After exploring the Lake of Life for some time, the elders of the Sea God Pavilion, including Mu En and Xuan Zi, hurriedly arrived and were dispatched by their ancestors.

Similar to the information revealed by the Titan Ape and the Azure Bull Python, what Mu En and Xuan Zi found in the ancient books of the continent was also an introduction to the Ten Ferocious Beasts.

However, they knew nothing about the silver-haired girl mentioned by their ancestors; they could not find any related information, making her extremely mysterious.

This result left the disciples of Peach Blossom Spring feeling very uneasy.

"It seems that the only way to find out the truth is to defeat the teacher in two years."

"Ten thousand years have passed, so what's two more years?"

"It's just that the three senior sisters got off easy. It's infuriating! If I hold back, I'll get angrier and angrier. If I back down, I'll feel like I've lost out!"

"But will the teacher arrive as promised in two years? Is he just trying to fool us? It's just a delaying tactic!"

"Probably not, otherwise the teacher wouldn't have needed to send Tang Wutong to issue the challenge."

"Fine, if that's the case, let's vent our anger now, and then defeat the teacher two years later and take it all out on him!"

"When the time comes, I'll drown Su Ran!"

"Roar!"

……

at the same time.

Abyssal plane.

The sky was dark gray, with corrosive air currents flowing through the churning clouds, and purple lightning tore through the heavens, creating a world that looked like the end of the world.

On this dark land, Gu Yue's voice kept echoing in Su Ran's ears:
"My husband, are you not satisfied with the wedding I organized? Why didn't you attend?"

"Didn't you say that as long as we have a wedding, bow to heaven and earth, and enter the bridal chamber, we'll be a legitimate couple?"

"If you're not satisfied, I can go and grab the best emcee in the world to handle things for us."

"Hush! Lord..."

"You must call me Yue'er, or wife."

"Alright, Yue'er, our relationship hasn't reached that point yet, and I don't have the mind to do these things right now."

"See this entrance ahead? This is the entrance to the Abyss Plane. Di Tian, ​​Xiong Jun, Chi Wang... your goal is to break through here within two years."

Su Ran pointed to the fiery red vortex gate in front of her and said.

Gu Yue was very unhappy that Su Ran had given her a perfunctory answer, and coldly said to Di Tian and the others:

"Charge in! You must break through this place within a year, or you'll be in big trouble."

Di Tian and Xiong Jun were drenched in sweat and immediately jumped into the abyss vortex.

Then came the Lord's displeased voice:

"When will our relationship be considered to be at a certain stage?"

"Does it mean, as Brigitte said, that it's only considered complete when the wedding night is over and all is done?"

Su Ran: "..."

Brigitte, why do you keep stuffing your master's brain with all this stuff? (End of Chapter)
