Chapter 40 Mythical Beasts!

How about my 355-degree extreme licking?

Zhu Wu was quite satisfied and nodded slightly, continuing, "In the years that followed, the Dragon God led all races in a long process of repairing this world. During this time, they gained the faith of many beings and also earned the recognition of this world, further enhancing their strength. However, no matter how hard they tried to restore it, like a broken mirror that can never be mended, this world could never regain its former prosperity. The Dragon God also began to understand that these powerful beings could no longer remain in this world."

"Otherwise, this world will collapse again sooner or later because of the activities of these primordial beings."

"Therefore, the Dragon God thought of creating an independent small world separate from this world."

"He wanted to transfer all the first living beings born in this world to this small world to prevent them from causing trouble for this world again."

"From now on, I will only be an observer, a guardian, protecting this world in a different way."

"Of course, it's also so that I can explore the universe and pursue higher realms without any worries."

He paused, then looked at the Silver Dragon King, "By the way, Your Majesty, was the Dragon God born in this world?"

"Or perhaps the five Great God-Kings know which world the Dragon God was born in?"

"It was indeed born in this world." The Silver Dragon King nodded. "However, to prevent his home planet Douluo Star from being targeted and retaliated against by enemies, the Dragon God warned all his subordinates during his conquest of the universe not to mention that he was born on Douluo Star. The beings who initially followed the Dragon God in his conquests were all from the Beast God lineage of Douluo Star, so it was impossible for the news to be spread. Therefore, the five God Kings were unaware of this."

"Furthermore, not only the five God Kings, but anyone outside the Douluo Star lineage would not know this, including the Beast God."

So this is his hometown. The Dragon God sent those dragon remains back, probably with the intention of returning to his homeland. Zhu Wu nodded, "In that case, there's no need to say that Douluo Star was encountered by the Dragon God during his conquest of the universe."

Di Tian frowned immediately. "But if this information reaches the ears of the Asura God, won't it attract the attention of the God Realm, prompting them to send people down to the mortal realm to conduct a large-scale search?"

"So many years have passed, if we could find it, we would have found it long ago." Zhu Wu shook his head. "After that great war, this world wasn't without its deities. As far as I know, the Angel God is one of them. If even these native gods haven't been discovered, how could the gods of the divine realm be found?"

"Besides, I intend to use this combination of truth and deception to conceal my identity."

"What do you mean?" A thought flashed through Di Tian's mind, as if he had realized something, but he was not sure.

Zhu Wu smiled and said, "After the Dragon God led the powerful primordial beings to the small world, they continued to evolve in the lower realm, and humans were born during this period. The Dragon God was grateful that although humans were weak at birth, they possessed extremely high intelligence, which was very different from ordinary soul beasts. As beings in the same world, the Dragon God did not show favoritism, but treated them all equally, regarding humans as a derivative branch of the soul beast race."

"Because they did not want to see this race, which possessed intelligence from birth, perish, they endowed these humans with certain abilities to enhance their survival skills. They also arranged for a member of their race to descend to the mortal realm to guard and guide them for a period of time. As a result, the first humans to worship the Beast God were born. And the ability they were given was the talent to freely switch between human and beast forms and to simulate the fighting style of soul beasts."

"So, as long as this information is spread, even if the Asura God sees the dragon scale between your brows on your martial soul, or even discovers a trace of the Dragon God's bloodline in your body, he will see it as a reward given to those humans by the Dragon God back then. He will not think that you are a survivor of that great war in the God Realm back then, nor will he think that you are the treasure beast that he killed with a single sword strike." Di Tian said, his eyes wide with astonishment.

"So, the next thing to do is to sever ties," Zhu Wu said with a smile and a nod.

"Because they were constantly protected, the dragon quickly became the object of worship for these humans, and was revered as the Beast God. Even after returning to the small world, the dragon continued to watch over these humans, and would often respond to their prayers. But one day in the future, the descendants of these humans suddenly discovered that they could no longer communicate with the Beast God they worshipped."

"And this continued generation after generation. Without the response and help of the Beast God, this group of humans encountered many troubles. Gradually, they began to believe that the Beast God they worshipped had abandoned them, and ultimately, they changed their faith and began to worship nature."

"A good idea." The Silver Dragon King nodded.

"Then comes the specific setup," Zhu Wu continued. "The cultivation method of the Phantom Beast race is very special. They distinguish their realms by the degree to which they simulate Soul Beasts. The first stage is the Liberation Form. After switching into beast form, they will simulate the aura of the corresponding Soul Beast, blend into the Soul Beast clan and live together, and learn about the other's fighting style and abilities by observing the Soul Beasts."

"Ultimately, one must become a true soul beast, enabling their skills to be freely released as a bloodline talent, just like a soul beast, achieving perfect mastery. This is a trial that every disciple of the Illusionary Beast Sect must complete; life and death are predestined, and death means returning to nature."

"In fact, this cultivation method is exactly what I have come to understand during my training in the Star Dou Great Forest. It is a phased cultivation method tailored for myself."

"The second stage is the transcendent form."

"It refers to perfectly controlling one's abilities in beast form, and then realizing the human form, so that one can perfectly exert one's abilities even in human form."

"To advance to this level, one must return to human society, wash away one's animalistic nature, and return to one's true self."

"After that, the spirit ring is fused with oneself, which multiplies one's attributes and turns all spirit skills into innate abilities, achieving a perfect fusion of the martial spirit and oneself. I call this final step 'spirit ring fusion'."

"After that, naturally, we will try to break through to the ethereal realm of the Beast God. And this is the cultivation path that I, as a soul beast, have opened up for these humans."

"The only difference is that before, one could break through realms simply by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. But later, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth decreased sharply, and it became necessary to absorb soul rings to break through realms."

"Thus, this group of humans and soul beasts have become complete enemies." Di Tian's eyes lit up.

"And this kind of martial soul talent, this kind of simulated soul beast cultivation method can be used as a disguise, allowing us ferocious beasts to transform into human form and walk outside."

"In addition, the Beast Illusion Sect's belief in nature and its own responsibilities can also serve as a reason to explain why the sect has never been known to the outside world for countless years."

"The Beast Sect protects nature and forests, so it naturally stays in the mountains. However, humans from the outside world often damage the natural ecosystem, which naturally leads to their rejection by the sect."

"Not bad." Zhu Wu nodded with a smile and continued.

"Because the initial batch of humans were endowed with different soul beast talents by the Dragon God, the martial souls that evolved from them were also quite different. As things stand now, the disciples within the sect have evolved into several lineages."

"The sect leader is the strongest dragon vein leader in terms of martial prowess, and the position is inherited by the dragon head. The leader of the Nine-Tailed Fox lineage, who once presided over the sacrifices, is the Chief of Wisdom. As a spirit-attribute martial soul, he possesses strong spiritual power, as well as remarkable wisdom and foresight. Therefore, he serves as the sect leader's assistant and advisor. This fox lineage is merely a fictitious structure, only used to complete the sect's setup."

"The rest can be designed based on the original forms of the various ferocious beasts outside. Di Tian, ​​if you have seen other ferocious beasts that can transform into human form, you can also include them; they might be useful later."

"Alright." Di Tian nodded.

"I have traveled across the continent and encountered two in the far north. One was a Snow Maiden of Ice and Snow, with a cultivation of over 60 years. The other was an Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, with a cultivation of over 30 years. There was also a Titan Snow Demon King, whose bloodline potential was quite good, but I don't know if it has advanced to a ferocious beast yet. In addition, on the continent on the other side of the sea, there is a Spirit-attribute Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord, whose age has exceeded 70 years. As for the sea, I didn't pay much attention to it when I was traveling through the air back then."

"That's enough," Zhu Wu said. "We can discuss the details with the ferocious beasts outside later, get a heads-up, and agree on a unified story."

"In that case, if there's nothing else, you may leave." The Silver Dragon King was quite decisive. "Di Tian, ​​from this day forward, you must fully cooperate with all of Zhu Wu's actions."

"Yes!" Di Tian bowed respectfully.

"Your Majesty, we take our leave." Zhu Wu then bowed.

"Hmm." The Silver Dragon King nodded, and its enormous head quickly submerged and disappeared into the lake.

"Let's go." Di Tian turned around.

"Okay." Zhu Wu nodded and followed towards the exit.
