"Kid, Xuan Zi's slaughter of soul beasts back then caused considerable damage to our Star Dou Great Forest. How do you intend to atone for that?"

Di Tian was quite satisfied with this little fellow who had just become a Fierce Beast, but the moment he spoke, his expression changed instantly. An overwhelming, tyrannical aura crushed down upon him.

The other Fierce Beasts around them also assumed furious, imposing expressions.

They had long since experienced Di Tian's usual routine.

Whenever a new Fierce Beast appeared, Di Tian would give them an immense amount of pressure upon meeting them, making sure they understood who was superior.

But after further contact, they discovered that Di Tian was merely intimidating them.

Here with Di Tian, as long as you had value and potential and did not violate his bottom line, anything could be forgiven.

Just look at Xiong Jun. How many times had he practically sought death? Yet was he still not alive?

"Lord Beast God, this is how I intend to atone."

Facing Di Tian, with his current insufficient strength, Jiang Heng naturally would not defy him.

He then took out the Soul Beast Breathing Technique he had created earlier.

He had not revealed the method of devouring. Once that was introduced, soul beasts might continue wildly devouring other soul beasts even after eating their fill, falling into a vicious cycle that would make the already disunited soul beasts even more chaotic.

Of course, it was also a benefit he had secured for his own clan, allowing them to stay ahead of the other clans.

Once his strength increased later on, he would reveal it. As for a shortage of food—what a joke. Was there a lack of it in the Ocean?

In any case, the Ocean's soul beasts worshipped the Sea God and were not on the same path as them.

"You created this?"

At first, Di Tian had not thought much of it. But after seeing the breathing technique and trying it himself, he was stunned.

With this breathing technique, the cultivation speed of their soul beasts could increase by thirty to forty percent. If they fully mastered it and turned it into a bodily instinct, then even while sleeping, they could constantly increase their strength.

"Just luck, just luck!"

Jiang Heng did not take credit in front of him. After all, his next plan still required Di Tian's help.

"Fine, kid. Follow me."

After seeing the breathing technique, Di Tian no longer intended to make things difficult for Jiang Heng.

He then brought Jiang Heng back to the Lake of Life.

On the way back, Di Tian also taught Jiang Heng how to assume human form.

For a Fierce Beast, mastering it was not difficult.

Very quickly, Jiang Heng transformed into a human.

He stood a full two meters tall, with a broad and powerful build. His features were handsome without being effeminate, carrying a distinctly masculine air.

"Kid, now that you've become a Fierce Beast, have you given yourself a name?"

The more Di Tian looked at Jiang Heng, the more satisfied he became, especially since Jiang Heng had actually evolved after becoming a Fierce Beast.

Moreover, after learning that Jiang Heng had attained such rapid cultivation not by wreaking havoc in the Star Dou Great Forest, but by preying on ocean soul beasts instead, Di Tian became even more pleased with him.

If this kid could advance even further in the future, it might not be impossible for him to become a true member of the Dragon Clan.

"I gave myself two names. My soul beast name is Sheng Long, while my human name is Jiang Heng."

The moment Jiang Heng said this, the atmosphere immediately grew grave. Everyone looked at him with hostility, especially Xiong Jun, who had the least favorable impression of humans.

Giving himself a soul beast name was normal, but what did it mean to give himself a human name as well?

"Lord Beast God, one of my clansmen has just reached fifty thousand years of cultivation. He wishes to challenge other soul beasts. As long as they are below eighty thousand years, there will be no problem."

"Would you agree to this request?"

Jiang Heng knew that he had to find a way to change the soul beast clan's way of thinking.

Otherwise, he should hurry up and run. Although he was currently only borrowing their power for temporary protection, he would still have to leave eventually.

But leaving early and leaving late were vastly different matters.

"What do you mean by this?"

Di Tian was puzzled, but he was also curious about what Jiang Heng intended to do, so he did not get angry.

"Lord Beast God will understand once you see it."

"I'll have to trouble you to arrange an opponent."

Jiang Heng did not explain. He then took out a Soul Tool and said a few words toward it.

This action left the Fierce Beasts present even more confused.

"Xiong Jun, do any of your clansmen have eighty thousand years of cultivation?"

Although Di Tian did not know what Jiang Heng was doing, he was somewhat angry at this moment.

He was determined to make this kid Sheng Long understand that authority could not be challenged.

"There really aren't any Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bears with eighty thousand years of cultivation, but there are ordinary eighty-thousand-year Terrorclaw Bears."

Xiong Jun heard the anger in Di Tian's voice and immediately cooperated obediently.

"That will do. Have him come. I want to see exactly what this kid is trying to do."

Di Tian spoke in a deep voice, and Xiong Jun went to find that clansman of his.

Meanwhile, one of Jiang Heng's clansmen had already burrowed out from underground.

This fifty-thousand-year Golden Earth Dragon possessed a rare trace of spiritual affinity. Because his spiritual power far surpassed that of his peers, he was the only one in the clan besides Jiang Heng who could create Level 7 Soul Tools.

However, with a soul beast's massive body and Soul Power, he was fully capable of operating the Level 8 Soul Tool Jiang Heng had made for him.

"What are these things?"

Seeing Jiang Heng's clansman covered in all sorts of strange objects, Di Tian's expression grew increasingly grim.

Fortunately, Xiong Jun soon brought over that clansman.

"Begin. I want to see what you are doing."

Di Tian immediately issued the order in a deep voice.

After Jiang Heng spoke with his clansman for a moment, the battle began at once.

Although the Terrorclaw Bear was inferior to the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, it was still among the most powerful soul beasts. It would not be an exaggeration to say that an eighty-thousand-year Terrorclaw Bear had no rivals among soul beasts below one hundred thousand years, unless they possessed some special bloodline.

Facing the Terrorclaw Bear's fierce attacks, the fifty-thousand-year Golden Earth Dragon did not evade at all, simply allowing the attacks to strike him.

"The outcome is obvious."

A trace of disdain appeared on Xiong Jun's face when he saw this.

Although this Terrorclaw Bear was not a direct-bloodline member of his clan, it was still extremely powerful. In this situation, even if its opponent was a Golden Earth Dragon, it had no ability to resist.

Bang!

Just as the Terrorclaw Bear's claws landed directly on the Golden Earth Dragon's body, a golden barrier appeared out of thin air, forcibly blocking the Terrorclaw Bear's full-force strike.

Then, in a flash of light, a thick cannon barrel appeared beside the Golden Earth Dragon.

Level 8 Soul Tool, Charged Soul Guidance Cannon!

The next moment, before the Terrorclaw Bear could react, a powerful force erupted from the massive cannon barrel. It struck the Terrorclaw Bear directly and blasted it away.

It smashed through countless giant trees and rocks before falling unconscious on the spot, its life or death unknown.

From beginning to end, the fifty-thousand-year Golden Earth Dragon had not suffered the slightest injury.

"This..."

Xiong Jun instantly flew into a rage at the sight. He was about to erupt when Di Tian's hand pressed down on his shoulder, forcing him to swallow the rest of his words.
