Ferocious Beasts Take Up Residence on Black Dragon Mountain, the Family Splits Up

Time flew, and another half a year passed.

More than a dozen whale Soul Beasts in the sea had already been hunted down.

They were all hundred-thousand-year Soul Beasts and Ferocious Beasts of various kinds.

Di Tian felt that it was enough. If they continued hunting, they would likely upset the balance among the Sea Soul Beasts.

Thus, he told the other Ferocious Beasts to stop hunting.

The Ferocious Beasts all waited for the Snow Empress.

Once she finished condensing her Soul Core, they would prepare the final matters for taking human form.

The days of waiting were long and boring.

Fortunately, the Ferocious Beasts had all lived through long ages, so waiting another year or two made no difference.

Three years later, the Snow Empress danced in midair like a child, her eyes bright.

She could not contain the joy in her heart.

Her Soul Core was complete.

With that, all seven Ferocious Beasts had condensed Soul Cores and stored vast quantities of Whale Rubber and Soul Bones.

Together, they entered the Sunset Forest.

On that day, the countless beasts of the Sunset Forest fell silent.

Sensing the presences of several Ferocious Beasts, the Soul Beasts all tucked themselves away.

Black Dragon Mountain.

All the disciples fell unconscious, as though they had been struck by an intoxicating incense.

After the Ferocious Beasts took up residence, they left Black Dragon Mountain with the humans whose Martial Souls carried their respective bloodlines.

The family of Black Dragon Mountain officially split up.

The Ferocious Beasts led the humans of their own bloodlines to establish territories.

Of course, splitting up was one thing, but the Ferocious Beasts would never pass up a fortuitous opportunity like the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

They often came back for a couple of breaths.

The Myriad Demon King gazed infatuatedly at the dazzling array of Immortal Herb seedlings, counting the days on his fingers and working out when they would mature.

Di Tian saw all of this, but paid the Ferocious Beasts no mind.

They wanted some resources, and as long as their demands were not excessive, he would grant them.

That evening, Di Tian also came to the place where the Sect Master of Black Dragon Mountain, Tuo Ba Yun, was resting.

Di Tian arrived dressed in a black robe.

Sensing their bloodline connection, Tuo Ba Yun stumbled out of bed and fell to his knees.

"Master!"

By now, Tuo Ba Yun's cultivation had fallen below the Soul Saint level.

It was all because of his battle with Qian Daoliu.

"Get up," Di Tian said indifferently.

An Immortal Herb then appeared in his palm. The white honeysuckle was spotless, like a green lotus and a white lotus root.

Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone.

The boy Tuo Ba Yun had been crippled for the sect, so Di Tian would certainly not treat him poorly.

When the Immortal Herb was first brought out, Tuo Ba Yun repeatedly shook his head and refused it.

"Master, this subordinate has already been crippled. I am not fortunate enough to accept this Immortal Herb.

It will be enough if I can still do a few things for you in the future, Master. In twenty years, I will pass the position of Black Dragon Sect master to my son, Tuo Ba Shuo."

Di Tian shook his head gently. "Swallow this, and your Soul Power should at least return to the level of an eightieth-level Soul Douluo.

As for passing your position to your son, speak of it again in fifty years.

You have only just made a name for yourself. Now is precisely the time to secure the sect's position."

Hearing his ancestor's words, Tuo Ba Yun hesitated no longer and accepted the Immortal Jade Muscle Bone.

Over the next few days, Di Tian's Dark Soul Power helped him quickly refine it.

The Immortal Herb nourished his sinews and restored his bones, allowing Qi to flow through his eight extraordinary meridians.

Di Tian also procured a complete set of Ten Thousand Year Soul Bones for him: a spiritual skull bone, a torso bone, and bones for both arms and legs.

In just one month, he raised Tuo Ba Yun's Soul Power Level back up to eighty-one.

Di Tian personally went to the Star Dou Great Forest and dug out a Dark Earth Demon Spider.

It was a Soul Beast with a full ninety thousand years of cultivation.

With Di Tian's help, Tuo Ba Yun easily obtained the Dark Earth Demon Spider's Soul Ring.

His cultivation recovered to level eighty-four.

He was satisfied with that; it was already a very good result.

With Di Tian's help, Tuo Ba Yun's spiritual power also improved enormously. It would not be difficult for him to conceal his cultivation in the future.

Thanks to his earlier battle with Qian Daoliu, the Black Dragon Sect's standing was like the sun at high noon with him holding the fort.

Sure enough, within a few days, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and all of the Lower Four Sects came calling.

One offered money, hoping to seek the Black Dragon Sect's protection and cooperation.

The Lower Four Sects, meanwhile, were straightforward and forceful. They wanted to become directly subordinate to Black Dragon Mountain and join its ranks.

Under Di Tian's instructions, Tuo Ba Yun turned none of them away.

He also put Ning Meilan in charge of purchasing Whale Rubber on a large scale.

Though Ning Meilan did not understand, she still did as instructed.

As they spent time together, she and Tuo Ba Yun grew increasingly close.

One evening, she officially became Tuo Ba Yun's third wife.

Meanwhile, the Ferocious Beasts began working on their grand plans to take human form.

None of them had any difficulty with the method of seizing a body.

But what the Ferocious Beasts were most unwilling to give up was their cultivation.

In recent years, they had begun seeking other ways to hide their cultivation in Soul Bones or elsewhere...

They were all Ferocious Beasts that had lived for hundreds of thousands of years, and each possessed genuine skills of their own.

Among the Ferocious Beasts,

Di Tian imitated White Dragon's method and began condensing an inner core of his own.

He dispersed his terrifying cultivation and refined it into a Dragon Core.

Di Tian planned to retain only two hundred thousand years of cultivation for seizing a body, storing as much of the rest as possible in the Black Dragon Core formed from his own body.

Zi JI, who was also a member of the Dragon Clan, could use this method as well.

Over the following days, Di Tian taught Zi JI to condense a Dragon Core and store as much of her Ferocious Beast cultivation as possible.

The two spent their days and nights together, and Zi JI bravely expressed her love. Di Tian was no longer the sucker from the original story, and when faced with this act of pursuing her teacher, he did not turn her away.

From then on, Zi JI became the Demon Empress, and Di Tian gained another wife.

Besides the two of them, Di Tian's first wife, the Emerald Swan, was also on Black Dragon Mountain.

As a Ferocious Beast who was the Lord of Life, it was much easier for her to store her own energy.

She would use water from the Lake of Life as a container for the energy, fusing her own vital essence with it!

And so, from that day onward,

Bi Ji continuously transferred her life origin into a Soul Tool, where a vast quantity of water from the Lake of Life absorbed it.

That ancient Soul Tool had been a gift from Di Tian.

While Black Dragon Mountain was busy, the Ferocious Beasts elsewhere also began to act.

The Myriad Demon King took the humans with Demon-Eyed Tree Martial Souls and put down roots in the Sunset Forest.

He took root there and accumulated his cultivation, providing a steady stream of resources for taking human form in the future.

Meanwhile, the Scarlet King took the humans with Scarlet Demon Mastiff Martial Souls and established a cave dwelling of his own.

Volcanoes dotted the area.

Xiong Jun did the same, but compared with the others' methods, it was much more difficult for the two of them to preserve their cultivation.

Both used vast quantities of Soul Bones to store their strength.

The outskirts of the Far North.

The Snow Empress established a cave dwelling with the Tianshui Family.

Every day, the Snow Empress provided the Tianshui Family with two kinds of supreme treasure, Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow and North Pole Divine Crystal, both naturally condensed from the ice-attribute elemental power of heaven and earth.

The Tianshui Family developed rapidly.

With resources of Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow and North Pole Divine Crystal piled up, and with the Tianshui Family possessing the top-tier Ice Phoenix Martial Soul,

The Tianshui Family gained five Titled Douluo in just three short months.

Shui Binghan was overjoyed.

But the Snow Empress was very dissatisfied with them.

In the Snow Empress's view, the Tianshui Family's foundation was simply too poor. I used more than two hundred jin of Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow and Ice Extreme Divine Crystal.

And you only produced five Titled Douluo?

Of course, the Snow Empress knew the reason: although the Tianshui Family possessed a top-tier ice-attribute Beast Martial Soul, they had never created a simulated extreme ice environment. As a result, their Martial Soul and cultivation environment were too poor, and their progress was slow.

After the Snow Empress helped the Tianshui Family improve,

She began storing her own power.

She found a snow lotus, the Soul Beast whose body she had originally planned to seize to cultivate anew.

Now that she had a more perfect human body, she no longer considered it.

Time flew.

Cultivation knew no passing years, and another century went by.

The Ferocious Beasts had all but finished storing their power.

On this day, Xiong Jun was in a foul mood.

Too many of his abilities could not be stored, and he was furious.

He thought of going out to clear his head.

But then he saw a streak of golden light descend near the Star Dou Great Forest, bearing a powerful breath of life!
