Meanwhile, far away in Eastsea City, Leng Yaozhu and Illusion Brain Douluo Han Tianyi saw this scene, and grave expressions immediately appeared on their faces.
The Beast God Di Tian?
He had suddenly vanished, only to appear on the new continent and attack the Spirit Pagoda.
Leng Yaozhu and Han Tianyi decisively summoned their four-word battle armor. After fusing with it, they transformed into streaks of light and swiftly flew toward Heaven Dou Continent.
At first, Leng Yaozhu had not intended to interfere with the Spirit Pagoda on Heaven Dou Continent. She had merely wanted to watch the spectacle.
After all, of the Eighteen Heavenly Pillars, nine were managed by the Qiangu Clan, and the Spirit Pagodas on both new continents were entirely under the Qiangu Clan's control.
Developing the new continents was far more profitable than making money in the Federation. The natives of the new continents had plenty of money to harvest, but the Qiangu Clan kept an extremely tight grip on resources, leaving them no way to get involved.
This time, the Spirit Pagoda on Heaven Dou Continent had been attacked, which was undoubtedly a devastating blow to the Qiangu line. At first, Leng Yaozhu had only wanted to applaud.
However, once they discovered the invader's true identity, they could no longer stand idly by.
That was right. They had recognized him. The one attacking the Spirit Pagoda was none other than the Beast God Di Tian, the ferocious beast who had suddenly disappeared from the Star Dou Great Forest several months ago.
No powerhouse could fail to recognize that signature skill.
Leng Yaozhu and the others were competing with the Qiangu Clan for power, but when facing soul beasts, they stood united against a common enemy.
Those not of our kind are bound to harbor different intentions. Only by driving out external threats could internal stability be maintained.
Moreover, soul beasts had actually taken the initiative to attack the Spirit Pagoda. This was an extremely dangerous omen, and Di Tian had to be stopped.
To arrive as quickly as possible, they were practically accelerating beyond their limits.
The instant Di Tian and the others made their move, Bear Lord and the Myriad Demon King acted as well.
They did not possess spatial elements and could not enter the core area directly. Instead, following Lin Chen's instructions, they charged in through the main entrance, leaving corpses strewn all along the way.
This was an invasion. It was impossible to avoid casualties, and Bear Lord and the Myriad Demon King showed no mercy.
After all, they were humans—and detestable Spirit Masters at that.
Lin Chen had only said not to harm innocents, but in a normal battle, those who needed killing still had to be killed.
There were so many people in the Spirit Pagoda. Leaving some alive would be enough.
Bear Lord and the Myriad Demon King crushed their way into the core area of the Spirit Pagoda in Moon-Slaying City. They then made the same arrangements as Lin Chen, ordering the surviving Spirit Masters to pack the soul spirits into special storage Soul Tools.
Meanwhile, within the Spirit Pagoda in New Heaven Dou City, Di Tian silently watched them rapidly pack away the soul spirits, while Lin Chen noticed that something was wrong.
He noticed that although this tower master looked utterly cowardly, timid as a mouse, and had shamelessly knelt to beg for mercy, there was no real fear in his eyes. Instead, he seemed rather confident.
Lin Chen immediately took control of Di Tian's body and strode up to Luo Yan, emanating a terrifying aura.
"My lord, what else do you require?"
"Nothing. Give me your communication Soul Tool."
The moment those words were spoken, panic immediately appeared on Luo Yan's face.
Seeing this, Lin Chen instantly understood and directly snatched away his communication Soul Tool.
With soul guidance satellites and such advanced technology, surveillance was everywhere. It was practically like the all-seeing eyes of his previous life—no one could hide.
He knew very well that the moment he stormed into the core area and began seizing soul spirits, everything here had already been relayed to Spirit Pagoda headquarters and witnessed by many people.
But he was not worried in the slightest. No matter how fast a four-word Battle Armor Master's flight speed was, it was impossible for them to immediately cross more than half of Douluo Continent from Shrek City to Heaven Dou Continent.
However, he had forgotten another possibility. Perhaps a powerhouse happened to be nearby.
Sure enough, Luo Yan's communication device was currently active. Not only was it providing the other party with their location, but it was also accurately transmitting everything happening here.
The entity receiving everything through the device was clearly listed as: Temporary Contact: Leng Yaozhu.
When Lin Chen saw those three words, his expression could not help turning grave.
"Di Tian, a formidable opponent is coming—the Spirit Pagoda's vice tower master, an Ultimate Douluo, a four-word Battle Armor Master, the Heavenly Phoenix Douluo Leng Yaozhu. We need to finish this quickly."
"Mm, I understand."
The reason Lin Chen warned Di Tian was not because he feared Di Tian could not defeat Leng Yaozhu.
No matter how strong Leng Yaozhu was, she was only an Ultimate Douluo. In a one-on-one fight, she was absolutely no match for Di Tian.
However, the existence of battle armor made Ultimate Douluos extremely troublesome to deal with.
Once you put on battle armor, even if you could not defeat your opponent, you could easily escape. That was the true value of battle armor.
Di Tian understood this as well. After all, he had fought countless four-word Battle Armor Masters, and he had some impression of Leng Yaozhu. She had been among those who had previously besieged the Star Dou Great Forest.
Di Tian stopped wasting time. After having Scarlet King oversee this place, he quickly used spatial traversal to bypass the slow elevator and travel directly from the core level to the floor where the Spirit Ascension Platform was located. He soon found the Spirit Ascension Platform's core apparatus.
Since this was Heaven Dou Continent, this Spirit Pagoda's Spirit Ascension Platform was somewhat low-grade. They had only come here to harvest the natives' money, not to genuinely help them increase their strength.
Still, although the Spirit Ascension Platform here was rather crude, it had everything it was supposed to have.
Lin Chen and Di Tian decisively entered the Spirit Ascension Platform through their true bodies. Once their true bodies entered, the Spirit Ascension Platform ceased operating, and this low-level Spirit Ascension Platform space immediately fell into deathly silence.
Di Tian soon found the core area, the energy conversion device, and the spiritual energy stored within it.
Lin Chen quickly urged Di Tian to absorb that spiritual energy.
However, no matter how many times Di Tian tried, he had no way to make use of this energy.
Seeing this, Lin Chen could not help feeling somewhat disappointed.
Sure enough, only within the Spirit Ascension Platform, through the power of the rules contained in the God Realm fragment, could this spiritual energy be used. Other than that, neither soul masters nor soul beasts could do anything with it. It was merely a somewhat higher-grade form of energy.
"Do you need me to destroy this Spirit Ascension Platform?" Di Tian asked.
Lin Chen froze for a moment. "What are you talking about? What benefit would destroying this place bring us? We need to leave the Spirit Ascension Platform intact so we can keep fleecing it."
Hearing this, Di Tian suddenly understood. He had nearly acted on impulse.
Now that they had confirmed it, it was about time to leave.
After returning to the core area,
more than half of the soul spirits had already been packed away. Although Lin Chen found it somewhat regrettable that they had not finished, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future. For now, he did not want Di Tian to clash head-on with Leng Yaozhu.
"Throw them all into the sea. We're leaving!"
After saying that, an eerie smile appeared on Lin Chen's lips again.
"Before we go, let's leave a little gift for this so-called most beautiful woman in the Federation! I hope she'll like it. Hehehe!"
