The outer perimeter of the Star Dou Forest.
They watched as Tang Wu did whatever he pleased in the Star Dou Forest.
They arbitrarily altered the homes they depended on for survival.
Di Tian could only be like a sleeping husband, powerless to do anything.
They could only watch helplessly.
With his five fingers clenched into a fist, Di Tian looked utterly frustrated.
" Di Tian, are you really willing to let someone ride on your head and piss on you?"
As if sensing the humiliation in Di Tian's heart, Xiong Jun quietly approached and whispered encouragingly.
His rugged, bear-like face was filled with resentment.
"At this point, the only solution is to awaken our lord and completely eliminate that Tang Wu."
"No······"
But before he could finish speaking, Di Tian vehemently rejected his suggestion.
Upon hearing Xiong Jun's suggestion to send Gu Yuena, who was healing at the bottom of the lake, out, he almost instinctively shook his head:
"Our lord's injuries have not fully recovered yet; forcing an attack will only worsen his condition."
He paused, lowered his voice, and even his tone carried a hint of barely perceptible apprehension:
"Moreover, he is the heir to a god-king, and there is a god-king watching over him."
"The successor to the God-King... Really?!"
Upon hearing this explosive news, Xiong Jun, Myriad Demon King, Scarlet King, and their group were immediately shocked, their eyes wide as they looked at each other in disbelief.
but.
After a brief moment of astonishment, a look of realization dawned on them.
I see······
So that's how it is. Tang Wu is actually the successor to the God King. No wonder he possesses such unreasonable power.
That makes sense.
Tang Wu flashed and appeared before them like Gui Mei.
Having finished his work, he arrived here in an instant, giving these people a meaningful look:
"How?"
"Have you guys finally figured out how to deal with me?"
Tang Wu overheard the entire conversation between Di Tian and the others.
The Head Soul Bone, representing the Eyes Bright and Ears Sharp, are still vying for power!
Upon seeing his arrival, Xiong Jun, who had been making a lot of noise just moments before, immediately fell silent.
Don't let his loud and boastful demeanor fool you; he's actually a coward faster than anyone else.
Tang Wu took in their pathetic appearance and grinned:
"Don't be so tense. I'm not a bad person. I won't just turn you into Soul Ring without a word."
"Stop pretending. You humans are all the same. You talk a good game, but what you really think is something else entirely."
"You simply spare us because you don't need Soul Ring yourself, so that other members of your race can hunt us down."
Di Tian simply did not believe Tang Wu's explanation.
Humans hunting Soul Beast to obtain Soul Ring for breakthroughs has been a rule etched into the Douluo Continent for millions of years.
No Soul Master can defy this ironclad rule.
In response to Di Tian's rebuttal, Tang Wu's lips curled into a meaningful smile:
Just because others can't do it doesn't mean I can't.
"To tell you the truth, starting from my Seventh Soul Ring, all the Soul Ring I've used have been Self-Condensed Soul Ring."
As the words fell.
Nine Soul Ring silently emerged from beneath Tang Wu's feet, all of them a uniform emerald green, slowly rotating around him.
The Soul Ring exuded a rich life force, warm and translucent, unlike the energy fluctuations of ordinary Soul Ring.
Di Tian, Xiong Jun, Myriad Demon King, and Scarlet King all focused their attention on sensing the depths of those Soul Ring.
The moment their spiritual power probed into the Soul Ring, they were all stunned.
Starting from the Seventh Soul Ring, there was not a trace of the Soul Beast's remaining spiritual imprint in those Soul Ring.
Yes, only pure, highly purified primordial energy.
Di Tian and the others stared wide-eyed, dumbfounded, and said:
"It... it really is Self-Condensed Soul Ring, but how is that possible?"
"Am I seeing things? This is such an outrageous thing, how could it actually be true!"
"That's definitely true..."
Seeing the shocked expressions on their faces, Tang Wu pressed his advantage and dropped another bombshell:
"Furthermore, I can spread this Self-Condensed Soul Ring technology, thus freeing future Soul Master from the fate of hunting Soul Beast for breakthroughs."
Upon hearing this statement...
The Scarlet King shuddered.
His three dog heads rose simultaneously, his six eyes fixed on Tang Wu, his voice trembling:
"Is everything you said true?"
His strength was among the lowest tier of all the Ferocious Beast.
Furthermore, since he has no powerful backing, if a high-ranking Titled Douluo takes a liking to him and forcibly captures him to help a junior break through, he really has no room for resistance.
He understood the feeling of living in constant fear more deeply than any other Ferocious Beast.
Putting aside other things...
If Soul Master no longer needs Soul Ring, then his life is greatly protected.
Finally... they took the bait.
Seeing the Scarlet King's excited expression, Tang Wu's lips curled up almost imperceptibly, and he decided to add fuel to the fire:
"That's certainly true."
"Moreover, if we simply follow my plan, then peaceful coexistence between humans and Soul Beast is not impossible."
He paused, his gaze sweeping meaningfully over every Ferocious Beast present, before finally revealing his fangs:
"Of course, the whole thing is predicated on you needing to obey."
When has the Scarlet King ever eaten such a large pancake?
He was tempted; he envisioned the future Tang Wu described and instantly switched sides.
The Scarlet King nodded vigorously, and all three heads bowed simultaneously:
"Boss, I'm working for you now..."
Rather than waiting for Gu Yuena, the Soul Beast Lord, who might take forever to recover, it's better to stick with Tang Wu, who has already achieved tangible results.
At the very least.
The Self-Condensed Soul Ring beneath his feet proved that this path was viable.
The Scarlet King raised his dog head, looking intently at Tang Wu.
What's wrong with being a lackey?
After all... he was originally a dog.
Tang Wu's brow twitched slightly as he looked at the Scarlet King's statement:
"Very good······"
Following closely behind.
His gaze shifted from the Scarlet King to the other three Ferocious Beast:
"So, what about you? Do you choose to follow me and work with me wholeheartedly?"
"Will they still cling to their original ideas, insisting on a fight to the death with Soul Master, only to be mercilessly crushed by the wheels of time?"
Tang Wu was not exaggerating.
In the original historical trajectory, Soul Beast were reduced to being domesticated because they could not keep up with the development of the times.
While humans were making great strides in technological development, Soul Beast were still living a primitive, primitive existence.
Therefore, being abandoned was something that was expected.
However, this cannot be blamed on Di Tian and the others.
It's because the intelligence of Soul Beast is far inferior to that of humans.
It took them 50,000 years to barely develop intelligence, and even after 100,000 years, they would only be about eleven or twelve years old.
It really is...
Even a horse couldn't catch up.
