Douluo Continent: Building a Divine Kingdom Starting from the Spirit Hall

Unfortunately, although the ferocious beasts were powerful, the Spirit Hall side was not weak either. In particular, the Angelic Divine Sense exuded a divine might that was like that of a level 100 True God, which made Di Tian, ​​the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, feel great pressure.

"god?"

Shocked, Di Tian felt that the woman was very strange, as if she was not a physical being, or even human, but the aura she exuded was very strong, as if she were a being on another level, making it feel waves of pressure.

But this pressure felt somewhat superficial, which was quite strange.

The soul beasts, including Di Tian, ​​were shocked, as were Qian Daoliu and his companions.

Although I knew that there were great dangers deep in the Star Dou Great Forest and that there must be super soul beasts, I really didn't expect there to be so many, and so powerful.

Chapter 106 Showing Sincerity

The two sides remained locked in this stalemate for a long time. Finally, realizing that neither could suppress the other, they gradually restrained their soul pressure, their hearts becoming extremely calm, and they also gained a greater sense of recognition for each other.

A testament to their strength!

Since it is a negotiation, both sides must be equal; otherwise, the subsequent negotiations will inevitably be unequal, and neither side will accept or back down on this.

"The Blue Silver Emperor said your proposal was good, but I don't trust you humans. You are too cunning and have no credibility."

Looking down at the humans before him, Di Tian expressed his distrust.

The numerous ferocious beasts and soul beasts behind them also had fierce expressions, clearly indicating that they did not trust humans deep down. This was not only due to the hatred accumulated from years of fighting between the two races, but more importantly, because humans really had no credibility. Their entire civilization was filled with conspiracies and deceptions, so who would dare to believe them?

"Your Excellency Black Dragon, my name is Tian Hao. I am here on behalf of the Spirit Hall to negotiate with your Spirit Beast Clan."

After receiving a signal from Qian Daoliu, Tian Hao stepped forward and introduced himself to Di Tian.

"represent?"

Di Tian glanced at Tian Hao, then looked at the angelic divine thought that was always hovering high in the sky opposite him, and gave it a questioning look.

Are you humans serious about using such a weakling as a representative in negotiations?

"He can represent my will."

The angelic divine sense spoke up, and Qian Daoliu and the others had no objection to it. After all, they were only powerful, but when it came to deceiving people, that kid was still better.

He still had doubts, but Di Tian didn't say anything; it was a matter of respect for beings of the same level.

His gaze then fell on Tian Hao below, scrutinizing him carefully, wanting to see what was so special about that human that he could serve as a negotiating representative.

Unfortunately, after looking at it for a while, I still couldn't figure it out.

“I know that neither of us trusts the other, but this has nothing to do with the cooperation plan. We are only cooperating for mutual benefit. If things don’t go well in the future, either of us can unilaterally terminate the cooperation.”

Tian Hao stated earnestly and loudly, directly defining this cooperation as based on mutual benefit, and emphasizing that trust was unnecessary.

Such straightforward words actually made Di Tian feel favorably toward him, at least the other party was very honest.

"That's not enough; I need to see more sincerity."

Even as the giant maw opened and closed, Di Tian remained highly vigilant.

He was well aware of human intelligence; they were all cunning and shrewd, and he had to be cautious to avoid falling into a trap.

“I’ve heard many myths and legends, and even our Spirit Hall has records about you spirit beasts. You are more ancient than us humans, and you had a glorious civilization. It’s even possible that we humans originated from the combination and reproduction of your spirit beasts in human form. We are of the same origin…”

Tian Hao was earnestly trying to fool people, but before he could finish, Di Tian interrupted him coldly.

"It's useless to talk nonsense. You humans have already betrayed us and sided with the gods."

Although the tone was cold, the words undoubtedly acknowledged Tian Hao's statement.

As the oldest surviving soul beast, Di Tian witnessed the evolution of the life forms on Douluo Star, clearly understood the origins of humanity in this world, and also witnessed humanity's growth and independence.

Even when humans betrayed and broke away from the Soul Beast race, he thought of exterminating them. Unfortunately, with the gods of the God Realm watching over them, and having to protect his master, he could only watch as humans rose rapidly with the secret support of the gods, gradually squeezing out the living space of the Soul Beast race.

"Okay, I'll make it short."

With a helpless sigh, Tian Hao came up with a second set of deception plans.

"I believe you have also seen the essence of the anomaly in heaven and earth back then. It was that a large amount of divine power was poured into our world. We guess that this anomaly occurred either because there was a problem in the divine realm, and they had to temporarily pour their power into our world."

Either the gods of the divine realm are plotting something against our world, and the infusion of divine power is just a prelude to their scheme to transform our world, or whatever the possibility, the gods of the divine realm will surely descend upon our world in the future.

Leaving aside the gods of the divine realm, the large-scale emergence of divine power is a great opportunity for the beings of our world, but it requires sufficient power to preserve this opportunity.

Our Spirit Hall wants to seize this opportunity to create a new god and occupy and protect more of the divine power, but there are too many and too strong gods in the divine realm, and we are simply powerless to fight against them alone.

Therefore, we need allies, and the divine power is both an opportunity and a crisis for the nobles. We share the same goal and the same enemy, and have a basis for cooperation.

Moreover, the divine realm possesses immense spiritual power, and there are no areas of conflict of interest between us in the short term, which forms a solid foundation for cooperation.

This plan for the efficient use of spirit rings is the first step in our alliance, aiming to gradually quell the animosity and distrust that have accumulated between our two races over countless years.

After speaking, Tian Hao waited quietly for Di Tian's response, demonstrating his sincerity in this regard.

Of course, these expressions of sincerity are just empty promises; they don't require any tangible commitment and are simply made casually.

"not enough!"

After pondering quietly for a long time, Di Tian spoke again, but his goodwill towards the humans below increased once more.

He's a practical little guy.

“Our Spirit Hall’s angel god suddenly lost contact over a thousand years ago and hasn’t sent any divine oracle for over a thousand years. Meanwhile, Seagod Island sent a divine oracle only once a hundred years ago. We suspect that our main god may have encountered an accident, thus severing our relationship with the divine realm.”

From now on, we will only have one stance: the Spirit Hall and this world.

Looking up at the angelic divine thoughts high in the sky, Tian Hao revealed this secret as a sign of sincerity.

"Divine sense?"

Di Tian suddenly realized what was happening, looked up at the angelic divine sense opposite him, and finally understood the other party's identity, but he still couldn't understand its state.

“Early after my god suddenly lost contact, we made the worst-case scenario plan and achieved some results.”

Tian Hao continued to deceive... no, to explain.

"What are your goals?"

After thinking for a while, Di Tian asked again.

"With the immense divine power, we will transform our world into a new divine realm, allowing more people to become gods."

Without mincing words, Tian Hao knew very well that if he wanted to fool an ancient being like Di Tian who had lived for hundreds of thousands of years, tricks and schemes would be useless. Only by showing his blatant and achievable ambitions could he gain the other party's trust.

"We humans have a saying: 'Better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix.' Rather than ascending to the divine realm and being suppressed and controlled by those five god-kings, it's better to create a divine realm that belongs only to us, to reign supreme, and to be free and unrestrained."

"This is a conflict!"

Di Tian said meaningfully, "The soul beasts and humans have been fighting for control of the world for many years. If the Spirit Hall wants to establish a god realm in this world, a battle with the soul beasts is inevitable."

"Our idea is this: first, we will each develop what we need, and then join forces to fight against the gods of the divine realm who may descend at any time. After we have resolved the threat from the gods, we will then have a final showdown, and the outcome will depend entirely on our own efforts."

However, there's no need for a life-or-death struggle. We can make a bet and stop when the fight is over, with the loser submitting to the winner. Otherwise, a fight that results in both sides being severely injured will only benefit the gods of the divine realm, which is not good for any of us.

Of course, this is just a suggestion, and we'll have to wait and see how things develop before deciding on the specifics.

Before the final showdown, neither side shall plot against the other, nor shall they cooperate openly or covertly with the gods of the divine realm.

"We can swear by our angelic gods, and you should swear by your dragon gods, shall we?"

Tian Hao remained very straightforward, even stating that he could swear an oath by the gods of both sides, which showed considerable sincerity.

Chapter 107 Emerald Swan

"Human, I'm starting to admire you."

Looking down at the humans again, Di Tian was quite impressed. No wonder the Blue Silver Emperor praised him so highly; he was indeed an interesting little fellow.

"Di Tian!"

Murasaki, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up, indicating that she had something to say.

Turning his head to look at him, Di Tian didn't say much, but simply nodded slightly to signal him to speak.

"You humans are not united; there are many factions within you. Your Spirit Hall is just one of them and does not represent all of humanity. If other factions want to scheme against us spirit beasts, how should we deal with that?"

Zi Ji looked down at Tian Hao and asked a key question.

They see all humans as the same and cannot distinguish which side they belong to, which undoubtedly puts them in a very passive position.

"It's very simple. This kind of soul power is called Holy Light. Generally, those who possess Holy Light soul power are people who believe in my god. As for those who don't, you can do whatever you want to them. Beat them to death, and even launch a beast tide to gang up on them. We have no objection."

Even if someone possesses holy light soul power, but harms the interests of your soul beast race, you can still take action to kill them.

However, I suggest that if you encounter such a person, it's best to capture them alive and notify the Spirit Hall for interrogation and investigation to see if any other forces are behind them, using this to sow discord and undermine our cooperation.

As he spoke, he condensed his holy light soul power into a ball and threw it toward Zi Ji.

Tian Hao had anticipated that the other party would ask this question. He had even discussed it with Qian Daoliu and others before coming, considering various possibilities and devising targeted solutions.

This should have been enough to gain the trust of the soul beasts, but this confidence soon crumbled.

"..."

Tian Hao paused for a moment, staring at the ball of holy light that had fallen to the ground ten meters away. Then he looked at Zi Ji with a resentful expression.

Big sister, can't you use your soul power to guide it?

"I forgot that you're just a weakling."

Zi Ji laughed, revealing a row of ferocious fangs. She then used her soul power to envelop the ball of holy light soul power and draw it over to carefully sense it.

She had just sensed that the soul power was very special and worth studying.

Even Di Tian glanced at the ball of holy light soul power in surprise and sensed something was wrong with it.

"I see your sincerity, swear an oath!"

His gaze fell on the human again, and Di Tian was very satisfied with the negotiation.

"No rush. You can discuss it with each other, bring up any new ideas, fill in the gaps, and strive to come up with a cooperation plan that satisfies both parties."

In addition, we also need to see your sincerity.

Shaking his head slightly, Tian Hao was in no hurry to finalize any plans or alliances, after all, this was only one of their purposes for coming here; there were others as well.

"I knew you guys were up to no good."

The hot-tempered Xiong Jun finally couldn't hold back any longer, and even his sharp claws popped out from his giant paws. The soul beasts behind him also looked fierce, and terrifying soul pressure surged forth.
