Deep within the Star Dou Great Forest, ancient trees towered into the clouds everywhere, and the clear blue lake water exuded a rich aura of life from within.
The Six Great Fierce Beasts had gathered here, along with an adorable Three-Eyed Golden Lion Beast.
"How could we possibly join the Master in blocking all the Gods outside this continent? That's impossible!"
Gazing at the Sky Curtain above the heavens, Di Tian's golden dragon pupils suddenly contracted.
"How could we acknowledge a human as our master? That's impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Xiong Jun wasn't just huge in stature; his voice was equally thunderous, his speech like rolling thunder.
Among all the fierce beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest, Xiong Jun had the worst temper, and he had once even injured someone.
Born as a Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear, his rank and cultivation might not surpass Jade Swan Bi Ji's, but when it came to combat power, even Jade Swan Bi Ji plus Three-Headed Crimson Demon Dog Chi Wang might not be his match.
Throughout the entire Star Dou Great Forest, only the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian could subdue him.
And Xiong Jun had always been dissatisfied with Di Tian, coveting his position as the acting Lord of Soul Beasts.
Di Tian glanced at Xiong Jun but said nothing, clearly sharing the same thought.
"To promote peaceful coexistence between humans and soul beasts!"
Bi Ji's beautiful eyes shimmered with a strange light.
Among all the fierce beasts present, she was likely the only one who didn't reject that person becoming the Lord of Soul Beasts.
After all, Bi Ji's personality could only be described with one word: compassionate.
The kind-hearted Bi Ji did everything in her power to prevent wars, heal injured soul beasts, and maintain peace in the Star Dou Great Forest as much as possible.
Her greatest dream in life was for soul beasts and humans to coexist peacefully.
After experiencing so much, Bi Ji had originally thought this would forever remain a mere wish.
Unexpectedly, in some distant future, it was truly realized by that human named Gu Tian.
"The connection between the God Realm and Douluo Continent has disappeared!"
Just then, a voice like a silver bell, yet full of authority, suddenly rang out from within the lake.
Hearing this, the fierce beasts fell silent for a moment.
Only the Three-Eyed Golden Lion Beast blinked its adorable eyes, completely unconcerned with such matters.
This was only natural; as the auspicious beast of the Star Dou Great Forest, the great tribulations other soul beasts faced had nothing to do with it.
Compared to that, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion Beast was far more interested in the Lake of Life before it, or rather, the mysterious Master it had never seen before.
"Master, are you telling the truth?"
After a long pause, Di Tian spoke with a tense expression.
It wasn't surprising that this peerless fierce beast with eighty thousand years of cultivation, the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King known as the Beast God, would react this way.
Countless soul beasts had perished under the Heavenly Tribulation when breaking through the hundred-thousand-year mark.
If there truly was a way to spare soul beasts from the Heavenly Tribulation, their strength would undoubtedly surge tremendously.
The remaining fierce beasts also looked expectantly toward the Lake of Life.
Even Xiong Jun restrained his fierce and brutal aura, becoming harmless as a lamb.
It wasn't their fault; the Heavenly Tribulation was simply too terrifying for soul beasts.
For them, the Heavenly Tribulation that descended every hundred thousand years was like a blade hanging over their necks.
Even these renowned fierce beasts couldn't guarantee they would safely weather the Heavenly Tribulation.
If anyone else had said this, they wouldn't have believed it.
But the one speaking now was the true master of the Star Dou Great Forest, the incarnation of the Dragon God—the Silver Dragon King.
"At the same time, the pressure and constraints they imposed on us soul beasts are also gone!"
The moment the voice sounded, the waters of the Lake of Life suddenly began to churn.
The next second, a massive silver dragon, its entire body shimmering with resplendent light, silently emerged from the water.
"Master?" Di Tian looked at the Silver Dragon King with deep concern.
He knew well that the Silver Dragon King had been sleeping in the Lake of Life to evade the God Realm's pursuit.
"It's fine. The God Realm has lost control over this continent." The Silver Dragon King shook her head.
"Master, what should we do next?"
Di Tian lowered his dragon head and asked.
"I can't yet determine whether Douluo Continent's loss of contact with the God Realm is related to that thing in the sky, so for now, we'll just wait and see."
The Silver Dragon King glanced at the Light Screen in the sky before diving back into the Lake of Life.
But this time, she chose not to sleep, instead absorbing the energy of the Essence of Life Gold beneath the lake.
No matter what the future held, the most important priority was to recover her injuries as quickly as possible.
Only then could she protect the Soul Beast Clan and have the power to choose.
God Realm.
"Who? Who exactly is scheming behind the scenes? Could it be that bastard Destruction?"
"No, he wouldn't do this, and there's no way he could pull off something so silently right under my nose."
Inside the palace radiating majestic, faint blue divine light, Tang San's expression was grim. "Whoever you are, you've sealed your own death. You'd better pray I don't find you."
Just moments ago, he had suddenly sensed that he—or rather, the entire God Realm—had completely lost contact with the Douluo Plane.
It was as if the Douluo Plane had vanished without a trace.
Whether it was the Child of Destiny, his daughter, or the Clear Sky Sect and Tang Sect, which he had left contingencies with, all perception of them was gone.
"Third Brother, what's wrong?"
Watching Tang San's face suddenly turn terrible, Xiao Wu walked in from outside, utterly confused.
"The Douluo Plane... suddenly disappeared," Tang San said with a dark expression.
"What? Third Brother, weren't you keeping an eye on it the whole time?"
"That's why I said... suddenly."
Tang San felt a bit embarrassed, as if his pride had taken a hit.
He was the esteemed Asura God and Sea God, a God Realm Law Enforcer, and yet, while constantly monitoring a plane, he had let it vanish without a trace.
How could Tang San bear such humiliation!
"Oh no, Third Brother, I was just about to tell you!"
Just then, Xiao Wu seemed to remember something and cried out in alarm, "Xiao Qi sneaked off to the Douluo Continent just now!"
"Xiao Wu, don't worry."
Hearing this, Tang San wasn't surprised.
After all, this was something he had deliberately orchestrated.
Otherwise, with Tang San's control over the God Realm, how could his daughter have had any chance to slip away to the Douluo Continent?
"Da Ming and Er Ming are on the Douluo Continent, and so are Father and Mother."
"I notified them long before Xiao Qi sneaked off to the Douluo Continent."
Tang San pulled Xiao Wu into his arms, comforting her. "So Xiao Qi will be fine, and I'll figure out the reason for the Douluo Plane's disappearance as soon as possible."
By the end, Tang San's tone had turned serious.
With his Divine Sense in place, there was no way Xiao Qi could come to harm.
The most pressing issue now was to find the Douluo Plane and get the millennia-spanning plan back on track.
