Beast God Returns Home, Deities Block the Way

Smack!

A vein bulged at Di Tian's temple, and he slapped Xiong Jun across the back of the head.

"You shameless old coot!"

"There are children here!"

"Act normal!"

But Xiong Jun looked deeply wronged.

"That's not it."

"Boss."

"I actually did research."

"Young humans love watching this stuff the most. Every time they watch it, they can't help but give off the aura of being in heat."

Smack.

This time, Di Tian's palm did not land on the bear's head. It landed on his own face.

His huge hand covered his face.

Seeing that Di Tian was ignoring him, Xiong Jun looked toward the only "child" present.

The Tiger King, Lan Hudie.

A little girl with cat-ear buns.

Di Tian's adopted daughter, and the next Beast God.

She possessed a top-tier soul beast bloodline cultivated by Di Tian using the supreme heavenly treasure, the Son of Heaven Fruit. Like Di Tian himself, she was a Tiger King who could perfectly control the two mutually repelling elements of light and darkness.

In a thousand years, she had cultivated ten thousand years' worth of power.

Xiong Jun winked at her.

As if to say: You do it!

You're his daughter. He won't hit you.

At the same time, quite a few fierce beasts also cast expectant looks toward Lan Hudie.

They hoped she could tell whether Di Tian had been affected by that "unseeable, indescribable, unspeakable great horror of a soul beast taking human form."

Was there any way to fix it?

Seeing all her uncles and aunties acting as if they were facing a deadly enemy, the tiny Tiger King Lan Hudie was infected by the mood as well, and felt the pressure mounting.

In a daze, she seemed to see a "person" on her father Di Tian.

Her older sister, whom she had never met.

The Emperor Auspicious Beast, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion—Wang Qiu'er!

Wang Qiu'er seemed like a drifting ghost, her long hair covering her face as she strangled Lan Hudie's father, Di Tian, from behind.

Though Lan Hudie had the mind of a child, she had at least lived for over a thousand years, so it was true that she was knowledgeable and experienced.

She made her move too.

A little gecko in her left hand, a pufferfish in her right.

She began circling around Di Tian.

As she circled, her body bobbed with the left side high and the right side low, then the left side low and the right side high... hopping over and over like a shaman performing a ritual.

At the same time, she muttered a harsh, grating chant that was painful to listen to.

"Demons and monsters, leave at once, demons and monsters, leave at once..."

Di Tian: "..."

For some reason, his chest felt clogged.

Looking at Lan Hudie now, he had the sense of watching his daughter turn into a flashy delinquent biker girl.

Why were all the daughters he raised so... unique?

How had such an adorable daughter turned into this mess?

He immediately interrupted the spellcasting.

Then he stuffed a mint ball into Lan Hudie's mouth.

"Mmph, mmph~" Lan Hudie could only whimper.

Just then—

Di Tian suddenly felt a chill run through his entire body.

As if a madman were sharpening his blade at night, while the imperial star wavered and Mars hung high.

The madman was none other than Zi Ji.

The expression with which she looked at Di Tian now was somewhat terrified, neurotically worried to the extreme.

She spoke in a daze:

"I feel as if I've heard the echo of the future—Di Tian suddenly comes back one day, then tells us, 'He is no longer the king of soul beasts'!"

"I feel as if I've seen a phantom of the future—Di Tian has his arms around several human beauties, while Bi Ji and I are tied up beside them, biting handkerchiefs, tears streaming down our faces as we watch."

"I feel as if I've touched the ripples of the past—the Blue Silver Emperor A Yin, the Soft-Boned Rabbit Emperor Xiao Wu, the Emperor Auspicious Beast Three-Eyed Golden Lion Wang Qiu'er, our lord the Silver Dragon King... all gathered in splendor inside Di Tian's body."

"..."

The Eight Vajras, the Four Beauties.

The Eight Immortals crossed the sea, each showing their own powers.

Di Tian's head had now grown two sizes.

It wasn't that he hadn't expected this kind of resistance. He just hadn't expected it to be this strong!

One beast chopped down the tree, the next beast roasted in the sun.

One beast courted death, the next beast suffered the consequences.

He really had been put through hell.

The voices by his ears grew more and more outrageous, until the King of Ten Thousand Monsters said, "How about, how about... we put a chastity lock on Boss?"

Di Tian could not take it anymore.

He abruptly stood up.

"Stop!"

In a tone that said, "I really can't with you people":

"Bi Ji."

"You will transform and recultivate with me."

Self-produced, self-sold, all in-house.

This should be fine now!!!

The air suddenly went still at that moment. Bi Ji froze at first, then shook her head like a rattle-drum.

Bi Ji was scared!

Very scared!

Extremely scared!

Even if she had to do it together with Zi Ji, she would be willing.

But soul beasts transforming, soul beasts transforming... it truly was a case of having been bitten by a snake in every dynasty and fearing well ropes for a million years.

She hesitated for quite a while.

She looked at Di Tian, who was firmly set on transforming as a soul beast.

Then she looked at the gazes of the other seven fixed on her. They were gazes that seemed to be looking at "the last hope of the whole village."

As if saying: in-house self-production and self-sale is great—this internal sale has to happen.

In the end, she bit her red lip with her pearly teeth and nodded.

Suddenly, a vast and righteous aura began gushing out from Bi Ji.

I laugh toward the sky with my blade held high; whether I leave or stay, my courage remains as twin Kunlun peaks.

A will to live toward death surged forth.

At the same time, she comforted herself: "We're keeping this self-produced and self-sold in-house. Nothing will go wrong..."

Comforting herself over and over, Bi Ji suddenly found half a theoretical basis.

Tianmeng Iceworm and the Ice Jade Empress Scorpion.

Although they had not transformed and recultivated, they had still become soul spirits with ties to humans that could not be cut clean or sorted out.

In the end, self-production and self-sale had succeeded.

With that, Bi Ji felt much more at ease about the future of self-production and self-sale.

Di Tian also wiped his forehead in false relief, though there was no sweat on it.

For him, the king of soul beasts with nine hundred and ninety thousand years of cultivation, the path of transforming and recultivating really was a trial of eighty-one hardships.

The internal matter was settled.

There were still external problems.

At the very least, they needed to find two hundred-thousand-year heavenly treasures of the snow lotus type. This was also why he had not asked Bi Ji to transform and recultivate with him from the start.

He only had information on one hundred-thousand-year snow lotus-type heavenly treasure.

If not for that, he would have asked Bi Ji to transform and recultivate with him from the beginning, rather than only being forced to say it after getting nagged by a crowd of fierce beasts for quite a while.

Because.

After taking human form and cultivating anew, Bi Ji could obtain an enormous opportunity in this era.

When soul masters fused with souls, they could enhance their bloodlines.

In the original timeline, Tang Yuge fused with the Yin-Yang Chaos Bird, and her martial soul successfully evolved from the Five Elements Qilin into the Heavenly Stem Qilin.

At the current stage—

Within the Spirit Pagoda's Spirit Ascension Platform, the immortal spiritual energy stained with the aura of the former divine realm passed through the ancient soul beasts in the reflected image of the Star Dou Forest, and by a stroke of chance, a hundred-thousand-year Silver-Patterned Blue Demon Bird was born.

As long as it absorbed the divine realm fragments inside the Spirit Ascension Platform, it could become a true soul.

And the Phoenix God King who had fought the Dragon God back then had been born from a Silver-Patterned Blue Demon Bird and a Gold-Patterned Blue Demon Bird.

Although female Silver-Patterned Blue Demon Birds and male Gold-Patterned Blue Demon Birds were envied by the heavens and were extremely difficult to be born at the same time, Di Tian had nurtured a Yin-Yang Chaos Bird that regulated the yin and yang of soul beasts, and only one was permitted to exist in the entire soul beast world.

All of this raised the conditions for the birth of a female Silver-Patterned Blue Demon Bird and a male Gold-Patterned Blue Demon Bird.

Bi Ji's true body, the "Emerald Swan," was, among all soul beasts, the bloodline closest to the divine beast phoenix.

Once she fused with the Silver-Patterned Blue Demon Bird and Gold-Patterned Blue Demon Bird, it would be inevitable for her bloodline to rise to the same level as the Phoenix God King's from back then.

"Bi Ji."

"Contact the Douluo Federation."

"The King of Soul Beasts will no longer undergo the godhood tribulation. He will take the path of transforming into a human and cultivating anew."

"A wandering son who misses his home wants to return for a visit. He won't stay long—only travel and sightseeing."

"If they can't trust me, I can send a clone."

"Human records of fierce beasts transforming into humans aren't detailed. I think they'll be interested."

"If that still isn't enough, we can take out a Son of Heaven Fruit."

"They're sure to agree."

The Son of Heaven Fruit ripened once every thousand years. The births of Tiger King Lan Hudie and the Yin-Yang Chaos Bird were both deeply connected to the Son of Heaven Fruit.

The god-level powerhouse "Elder Shu" of Shrek's Life School had openly shown interest.

And in Di Tian's eyes, These costs were nothing at all.

Another ten-thousand-year period had arrived, an era where great opportunities erupted like a geyser.

Yet treasures concealed their own brilliance, making them difficult for humans to discover.

Then they would benefit him instead.

The Extreme North, birthplace of the hundred-thousand-year snow lotus—searching for the hundred-thousand-year snow lotus was only one of his goals. More importantly, he had to obtain that egg.

The egg produced by Tang Wulin and Gu Yuena's mating.

The second-generation Dragon God egg—Lan Xuanyu.

The bloodline might not be usable.

Even the many super-god-level powerhouses of the Dragon-Horse Twin Stars' Demi-God Realm had no way to handle his bloodline.

But.

Even if the bloodline could not be used, the little Dragon God still had a super divine weapon in his hands: the Heavenly Saint Splitting Abyss Halberd.

So that her precious son could use it, Gu Yuena had deliberately not acknowledged it as her master.

An ownerless super divine weapon.

Just this one super divine weapon alone was already a massive profit.

And there was also the Life Evergreen Vine bag containing the Golden Behemoth King, as well as the will of the dragons, "Tears of the Dragon God," which had failed to fetch a price at auction.

The next day.

Douluo Home Planet.

Two god-level powerhouses from Shrek Academy, two deputy pavilion masters of the Sea God Pavilion.

Elder Shu and Wang Tianyu.

The two of them stood guard at the edge of a spatial wormhole. Wang Tianyu spoke in confusion:

"I really don't understand."

"Why must we at Shrek firmly support Di Tian's true body coming to the home planet?"

Elder Shu replied with a beaming smile:

"Of course it's because Di Tian plans to transform into a human and enter the human world to cultivate anew."

"Since the dawn of human civilization, among all soul beasts that transformed into humans, which one hasn't fallen into humanity's hands?"

"Of course Shrek has to offer firm support, aid, and an olive branch of recruitment."

"Let this King of Soul Beasts enter Shrek Academy. With our academy's educational ability, we can turn him into a Shrek person in no time. From then on, Di Tian will be the most dazzling golden signboard of 'Shrek's ten-thousand-year glory'!"

"To devote one's life to the Ten Thousand Year Glory of Shrek."

Elder Shu looked extraordinarily excited—even so stirred that he was trembling a little.

Wang Tianyu glanced at Elder Shu.

How devious. As expected of someone capable of using his dignified status as a god-rank expert to swindle treasures from his own students.

And not just once, either.

He shifted a little farther away from him.

Of course Wang Tianyu supported Elder Shu in bringing Di Tian under the plaque of Shrek's Ten Thousand Year Glory and nurturing him into one of Shrek's own. In any case, it benefited Shrek.

He kept his distance from Elder Shu purely because Elder Shu had tricked him when he was young.

Besides.

Wang Tianyu had his own mission.

—to fight Di Tian, who had come in his true body.

To test whether Di Tian had lied. Had he really already suppressed his own godhood tribulation?

Just then.

Ripples spread from the spatial wormhole.

Lightning serpents leaped all over Wang Tianyu's body, and battle intent blazed in his eyes.

As a Thunder Fist Seal condensed in his hand, he greeted him:

"A friend coming from afar..."
