Chapter 219: Black Dragon Di Tian

Yang Podi gave a detailed explanation to Yang Tianyue and the others about the cultivation methods of Ultimate Metal. The group listened in astonishment.

After thinking carefully, Yang Podi continued, "Actually, Lingling can already be considered as possessing Ultimate Wood. Unfortunately, the Nine Heart Begonia has no innate offensive capabilities; otherwise, it would be incredibly powerful."

Yang Ping'an seemed slightly unsettled and asked, "Big Brother, who exactly was that Bear Lord earlier? It seems like his cultivation method is quite different from ours."

Yang Podi shook his head. "Bear Lord is not human. He is a soul beast. His true form is the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, known as the Earth Ripper—a being capable of tearing apart giant dragons."

Yang Tianyue quickly interjected, "Aren't soul beasts unable to take human form? How can he switch between human and beast forms so freely, and his strength doesn't even seem to decline?"

"Tianyue, Bear Lord is no ordinary soul beast. Normally, the soul beasts we encounter are just ordinary 100,000-year soul beasts. Even the 200,000-year-old Golden Scorpion Emperor we encountered earlier was unimaginably powerful."

"When soul beasts exceed 200,000 years of cultivation, they are no longer ordinary soul beasts. They are considered ferocious beasts, and ferocious beasts are much stronger than regular 100,000-year soul beasts."

"The Bear Lord we encountered should be close to 500,000 years of cultivation. In terms of strength, he is likely comparable to a Rank 99 Ultimate Douluo among soul masters."

Hearing this, everyone took a sharp breath. They couldn't believe their opponent was so powerful—it was simply unimaginable.

However, Yang Tianyue still had some doubts and asked, "Big Brother, since these ferocious beasts are so powerful, couldn't they just hide away and keep cultivating until they become invincible?"

Yang Podi shook his head. "This world has its own rules. Once a soul beast surpasses 100,000 years, it must undergo a lightning tribulation every 100,000 years. If it fails to withstand the tribulation, it will be reduced to ashes. If it succeeds, its strength will become even greater."

"Tianyue, you need to be especially cautious. One of the trials in your Sea God's Ninth Test involves hunting the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. That is a soul beast infinitely close to one million years of cultivation. Even Sea God Douluo Bo Saixi was no match for it. In the ocean, it is practically invincible."

Yang Tianyue seemed troubled. "Big Brother, if the Deep Sea Demon Whale King is so powerful, do we even stand a chance of completing the Sea God's Eighth Test?"

"Tianyue, what are you worrying about? Aren't we here to help you? Once you reach Rank 99, we'll work together to take down the Deep Sea Demon Whale King."

"But Big Brother, I was thinking of using the Deep Sea Demon Whale King as my ninth spirit ring. It seems like there's no hope for that now."

Yang Podi shook his head. "A soul master's ninth spirit ring cannot absorb the spirit ring of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King unless it willingly sacrifices itself to you. Otherwise, it's practically impossible."

"By the way, Tianyue, the spear techniques you used earlier seemed different. Did you experience some sort of fortuitous encounter?"

Hearing this, Yang Tianyue burst into laughter. After laughing, he proudly said, "Big Brother, during the battle earlier, I think I heard the voice of Lord Sea God. He said he would teach me the Golden Thirteen Halberds, but he only taught me three moves for now. The rest will require me to practice diligently."

Yang Podi smiled and nodded, silently thinking, The Sea God seems to favor Tianyue quite a bit. It looks like Tianyue truly has a chance to inherit the Sea God's position.

After pondering for a moment, Yang Podi added, "You need to practice those halberd techniques carefully. They are quite different from the techniques of the Breaking Soul Spear."

Suddenly, Yang Tianyue remembered something and asked, "Big Brother, what was that voice earlier? And what was that dragon claw that blocked your final attack?"

"That was the Black Dragon Di Tian, the strongest soul beast in existence—probably unmatched," Yang Podi said with a hint of severity in his eyes.

Yang Podi hadn't expected that two ferocious beasts, which weren't supposed to appear for tens of thousands of years, had shown up now. If it had only been Bear Lord, Yang Podi would have been confident in taking him down for a spirit ring. But when it came to the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian, he had no confidence at all.

In terms of cultivation, Di Tian was probably already 800,000 years old. Although his cultivation might not surpass that of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, Di Tian's bloodline was far more noble, being a pure-blooded black dragon. Even in the later Douluo II era, Di Tian remained indisputably the strongest individual. It was important to note that contemporary Limit Douluos were weaker than those of the Douluo II era, as the latter did not have dual spirit cores.

Yang Podi couldn't help but feel puzzled. By all logic, these ferocious beasts shouldn't appear so early. In the original timeline, even Bibi Dong almost killed the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python without provoking any reaction from the other beasts. Why are they suddenly showing up now? Could it be because I killed a few more 100,000-year soul beasts?

Indeed, Yang Podi had slain many 100,000-year soul beasts, not counting pseudo-100,000-year ones like the Thunder Dragon, Spatial Bone Dragon, Nether Panther, and Golden Behemoth. He had also taken down the Titan Gaint Python, Gluttonous Divine Bull, Demon Evil Orca King, Mutant Ghost Vine, and Golden Scorpion Emperor. The quantity alone was almost comparable to that of the Body Sect in the future, especially since the Golden Scorpion Emperor was a ferocious beast.

After resting for a few days, the group prepared to return to Heavenly Academy. Although He hadn't reached Rank 99, He was still satisfied with these results, having met his expectations. The only regret was that He hadn't found the Azure Bull Python and the Evil-Eyed Dark Tiger.

However, Yang Podi remained curious. What exactly happened in the Star Dou Forest? Why have the Azure Bull Python, Titan Giant Ape, and Xiao Wu disappeared? Could Xiao Wu have been captured by Chrysanthemum Douluo? But they shouldn't have the capability to capture the Azure Bull Python.

Deep within the Lake of Life in the Star Dou Forest, Bear Lord sat casually on the ground. Beside him, a stunning woman emitted a green light as she healed him.

Nearby, several figures stood. One of them was exceptionally tall, dressed entirely in black, with golden eyes. This was the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, Di Tian.

Di Tian spoke grimly, "Bear Lord, I didn't expect your strength to have deteriorated so much. You almost got taken down by a group of kids."

Bear Lord replied nonchalantly, "Those kids might be young, but their strength is no joke. Didn't you fail to gain the upper hand against them either?"

"They have special identities, which is why I couldn't act recklessly. Otherwise, I would have taken them out long ago. Why did you act against them without permission?"

Xiong Jun's expression turned serious. "Those kids have killed so many 100,000-year soul beasts, including the Golden Scorpion Emperor. If we let them continue, they'll wipe out every 100,000-year soul beast in the Star Dou Forest. The Golden Scorpion Emperor was one of our own!"

"You call yourself the Beast God, yet you stood by and did nothing. You've brought shame to soul beasts. I think I should take your place as the Beast God."

Di Tian suppressed his anger and sighed. "Bear Lord, you'd better be careful. One os those kid carry the aura of gods. Our priority is to protect our Lord and keep his existence hidden. If the gods of the Divine Realm discover him, the consequences will be unbearable."

Bear Lord grew serious as well. "If our Lord is so worried about exposure, why did he send me to save that little rabbit? That rabbit chose to take human form and has betrayed the soul beasts."

Di Tian shook his head. "This matter concerns the future of soul beasts for the next ten thousand years. Do not ruin it, or I'll deal with you myself."

Suddenly, the core of the Star Dou Forest seemed to tremble, and a faintly visible door appeared in the air. Di Tian's expression changed instantly. He vanished and entered the door at incredible speed.

Within the void of the Lake of Life, which lay inside the door Di Tian had entered, there was not only him but also an unimaginably enormous silver dragon.

Di Tian bowed with utmost respect. "Greetings, my Lord. May I ask why you have summoned me?"

The silver dragon opened one of its enormous dragon eyes, which seemed capable of perceiving all of creation. "Di Tian, how are matters progressing?"

"Reporting to my Lord, everything has been handled. The small rabbit at the Lake of Life has been rescued, and the three 100,000-year-old soul beasts have all been properly secured. We are now only awaiting the next steps."

"That is good. These three young soul beasts are of great importance; they must not be allowed to come to harm."

Di Tian seemed somewhat puzzled and asked, "My Lord, they are merely three young soul beasts. Why do you value them so highly?"

The silver dragon did not answer Di Tian's question directly but instead spoke in a calm tone. "Recently, as I observed Douluo Star, I noticed its fate experiencing a tremendous shift. Originally, the entire planet's fate was concentrated on three individuals. However, now, fate has dramatically redistributed, with two others also possessing extraordinarily strong fortunes. The fate surrounding the child of destiny we had planned for is actually diminishing. I fear an unknown variable has emerged in this world."

Di Tian seemed confused. "My Lord, can fate truly change?"

The silver dragon closed its massive eye. "Of course fate can change. Every world is full of unknowns, endless transformations, and countless anomalies."

"Douluo Star is the birthplace of the God Realm. Whenever a child of destiny emerges, it signifies that a new god will soon ascend in this world. Tens of thousands of years ago, both the Sea God and the Angel God carried unparalleled fortunes. It was only through this immense fortune that they were able to achieve godhood through faith."

"Now, with fate distributed among five individuals, it seems this world is on the brink of great upheaval."

Di Tian remained skeptical and asked, "What does this have to do with our soul beast race? We failed in the past. The gods of the God Realm will never allow members of the soul beast race to ascend to godhood."

The silver dragon was silent for a moment before responding, "It is true that the gods of the God Realm will not allow our soul beast race to ascend to godhood. However, if it is the relative of a child of destiny, they can also ascend to godhood alongside them. Furthermore, the God Realm permits individuals with soul beast bloodlines to become gods, especially if they are connected to a child of destiny."

Upon hearing this, Di Tian understood his Lord's intentions. For the sake of the soul beast race, he would stop at nothing.

If Yang Podi were to overhear the silver dragon's words, he would likely spit in its face. With this level of intelligence, how did you become the leader of the soul beast race? And just who are these people you've chosen?

Admittedly, its plan was sound, perhaps even brilliant. But among the individuals it had chosen, who had ever contributed even a shred of effort toward the soul beast race?
