The Truth of the Star Dou Great Forest, Preparing to Break Through the Fortress
"In any case, I think it's best for our lord to stay here," Di Tian said.
"No, you should see who she's willing to go with. Just like when he invited me, and later invited the Snow Empress. Only later did we realize that we had no regrets about following him for the rest of our lives," said the Ice Empress.
"Ice Empress, I am sincerely inviting you," Long Shuang Han said.
"Hmph, invite me? What can a human like you do?" the Ice Empress said.
"Becoming a god is something I can promise you, and I will show you my abilities. Besides, shouldn't you go and see this world?" Long Shuang Han said.
At that time, Long Shuang Han came to the Far North, met the Ice Empress, and made a promise.
"Humans? I will not trust humans," Snow Empress said.
"Snow Empress, we know each other, and even I trust him. We should give it a try," Ice Empress said.
"But he is human, and all humans are the same," Snow Empress said.
"Miss Snow Empress, I won't deny some of what you said. But, since all humans are bad, why don't you try it and see for yourself?" Long Shuang Han said.
This was the initial conversation between Snow Empress and Long Shuang Han, when Xue Di was rescued.
At that time, the two Ferocious Beast chose to believe, and even to stay with each other for a long time, making their own choices.
Yes, they don't regret it, or even regret waiting for so many more years, just like everyone else.
"So why are you here? Didn't you become gods with him?" Di Tian asked.
"At that time, he did indeed die initially. However, we chose to be reborn, which is something that gods can do. We are not as powerful as those gods, but with the power of the two of us at that time, reincarnation was not difficult. It just required a long wait," said the Snow Empress.
"So, you may have heard this question many times, but you still believe him, right?" Di Tian asked.
"What do you think?" Ice Empress retorted.
"This is your choice, why should I stop you?" Di Tian said.
"Regarding human actions, we still hold some of the same views as before. However, we cannot deny that some people are making efforts," said Snow Empress.
"Too small, what's the use? I think it's better to let him see what the outer edges of this forest look like," Di Tian said.
"This..."
"Well, let him take a look. At least it won't do him any harm right now," Old Long said.
"I have a question for you regarding him," Di Tian said.
"Okay, go ahead and ask," Old Long said.
"What kind of person was he, Long Shuang Han, in his original world?" Di Tian asked.
"He's in his original world? Haha, that's a good question," the Old Long said.
"Before coming to the Douluo Continent, he was a world-renowned knight. You also know a little about the Divine Seal and the Throne. Of course, he has a powerful attraction to all living beings."
"So when he was around, there wouldn't be such a deep and painful conflict. Sometimes, he would choose to charge forward even when faced with a Godslayer bomb, just like he is now."
"But he was confident, or in his own words, he was a bit of a strange person."
This is Old Long's explanation, which may be a little hard to understand, but it is exactly as it says.
"Hmm, he really is a strange human. What can he possibly bring?" Di Tian said.
"Yes, that's it... Hmm? He's awake, we should go back now," the Old Long sensed and said.
Now that everything has been said, we should continue.
Then, just as before, before Wu Yang Jin woke up, the three Old Long beasts returned to their Sea of Consciousness.
"This, this is..."
"Kid, you're awake?" Di Tian asked as he walked over.
"Um, who are you?" Wu Yang Jin asked.
"Dad, he was the bad guy who was about to hit you!" Gu Yuena said.
"That's right, I... uh, I'm not, my lord." Di Tian quickly said.
"Haha... It's alright, Yue Na, don't worry," Wu Yang Jin comforted her first.
"Ahem, kid, come here, I'll take you somewhere," Di Tian said.
After comforting Gu Yuena, Wu Yang Jin followed Di Tian alone.
Then, we arrived at the end of this great forest, a place that should have been filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers.
However, the scene before us was surprising, as the end of the wall was surrounded by metal walls.
Furthermore, one can see soldiers holding guns on a high observation platform in the distance.
Because they are on alert of their surroundings, constantly on guard against the appearance of Soul Beasts.
Furthermore, you can see that the walls are covered with iron fences and electric wire mesh, which are used to prevent the Soul Beasts from escaping.
On the ground, there were military trucks and Soul Guidance Weapon everywhere, and the soldiers were training in an orderly manner.
That's how it is; one wall after another surrounds the entire Star Dou Great Forest.
Yes, just like a cage, the entire Star Dou Great Forest is no longer the same as before.
Moreover, a thousand meters above the Star Dou Great Forest, there is a nearly transparent light shield.
However, it is precisely this protective shield that isolates all living things from the outside world.
"This has no gaps at all; it's a cage," Wu Yang Jin said.
Yes, it's like imprisoning criminals; the environment inside looks very nice, but the outside is actually quite unbearable.
"Who could this be?" Wu Yang Jin wondered again.
"Boy, now you see, right? Surprised? But this is the ugly side of you humans." Di Tian said coldly, his anger evident in his words.
"I saw it, and... I don't know what to say," Wu Yang Jin said.
"Now you understand. And although you are human, you must remember that we have our own pride, and what we need is a real life, free from the constraints of such ghosts!" Di Tian said.
"So, you may not understand what I'm saying, but this time..." Di Tian said.
"This time, I choose to believe you, and I will let you take her away. Remember, take good care of the Lord, and remember to help the Lord regain his memories. Otherwise, I don't care who you were before or who you will be in the future, I will not let you go," Di Tian continued.
"Yes, I promise you. But where should Yue Na and I go?" Wu Yang Jin asked.
"You can decide that yourself, but you should know the Lord better and go to the place you are most familiar with," Di Tian said.
At this moment, we arrived at the outer area, which is the Star Dou Fortress of the Spirit Pagoda.
Star Dou Fortress actually has a history of over three thousand years, from its establishment to the present day.
Furthermore, even though there were regulations, everything has remained the same since three thousand years ago.
Because at that time, the Ferocious Beast in the Core Circle Star Dou Great Forest suffered a crushing defeat in a great battle.
Then, taking advantage of the situation, the Spirit Pagoda built this fortress and reached an agreement with many Ferocious Beast.
The agreement was that humans would no longer cut down forests, and the Ferocious Beast would live there.
Furthermore, if Ferocious Beast charges through human defenses and attempts to attack humans, then humans have the right to kill it.
Conversely, if humans enter the forest, these Ferocious Beast can kill them without being affected by the contract.
It seems fair at first glance, but in reality it's not fair at all.
Because the Star Dou Fortress took too long to complete, by the time it was finally finished, it was too late.
Because, from the moment it was completed, the Core Circle Star Dou Great Forest became a real prison.
As for the Soul Beasts in the forest, they are naturally like animals kept in a beautiful forest.
As for the Spirit Pagoda, what this group of people does is sell tickets to enter at high prices.
Although one aspect is the risk of life and death, the allure lies in the fact that it involves real Soul Ring.
Moreover, only high-level Soul Beasts can give Soul Master the possibility of possessing top-tier Soul Ring.
