Douluo Continent: Invincible Since Being Forced into Marriage by a Goddess — Part 14

He sent a thousand-year Wind Tail Cockscomb Snake flying with a slap and snorted. "The Star Dou Great Forest has truly declined. Even some stray snake with a thousand years of cultivation dares come here!"

"Forget it. If we go any deeper, we'll enter the Core Zone. It'll be troublesome if we run into a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast. We should go take another look in Fallen Moon Forest."

Some Soul Masters began to consider retreating.

The entire Star Dou Great Forest was divided by danger level into several regions: the Land of Great Misfortune, the Core Zone, the Mixed Circle, and the Outer Circle.

Ten-year and hundred-year Soul Beasts were primarily active along the outskirts of the Outer Circle, making it the place where Soul Masters of the continent got their start. Most Soul Masters hunted Soul Rings in the Outer Circle during their early stages.

The Mixed Circle was where thousand-year and ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts were commonly found, a true transitional zone between the worlds of humans and Soul Beasts.

Even Titled Douluo did not dare cross into it recklessly.

That was because the Core Zone was filled with ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts, with Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts stationed there as well.

The one humans knew best and feared most was the king of the forest, the Titan Giant Ape.

As for the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Seven Fierce Beasts, people did not fear them because they rarely appeared in human sight and thus had little presence.

Speaking of which, the Titan Giant Ape's fearsome reputation was actually due to its hyperactivity and its hatred of evil.

It often rampaged through the Star Dou Great Forest, heading into the Mixed Circle to meddle in others' business, so it frequently encountered humans hunting Soul Rings.

If the Soul Beasts they killed were inherently vile, that was one thing. But if they slaughtered well-behaved Soul Beasts, the Titan Giant Ape would not rest until it had slapped them into paste.

Who would dare act recklessly after that?

Thus, the Titan Giant Ape's name was exceptionally famous in the human world.

But they did not know that this handsome fellow was the weakest Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in the Core Zone.

Some of these Soul Masters refused to believe it and continued deeper into the Mixed Circle.

When they reached Star Lake, they looked into the distance but still failed to spot a suitable ten-thousand-year Soul Beast.

They could not help collapsing onto the grass and complaining, "Could it be that some crazed Super Douluo carried out a massacre in the Star Dou Great Forest? It's completely empty! The Soul Master World may decline along with it!"

Every time a Soul Master advanced nine levels, they reached a bottleneck. They needed to absorb the power of a Soul Beast to break through their limits—what was known as a Soul Ring.

"Something's wrong!"

A Soul Master with particularly sharp eyesight gazed into the distance and saw densely packed Soul Beasts far away.

Some swam in the lake, some flew through the sky, and some slowly crawled across bridges woven from long vines.

"So... so many ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts!"

They were dumbfounded.

Everyone froze.

Then they came to their senses.

"Run! Run now!"

"Hey, aren't we hunting Soul Rings anymore?"

"Hunting my ass! With this many Soul Beasts, if they spot us, we're dead for sure!"

"A Beast Tide! This... this is a Beast Tide!"

It was not just one group of Soul Masters who witnessed this magnificent sight. Every human who had entered the Star Dou Great Forest that day saw the strange phenomenon to some extent.

But no one knew.

Today was the wedding day of the Soul Beast Overlord.

Within the Land of Great Misfortune, led by the Seven Fierce Beasts, tens of thousands of ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts stood in orderly ranks behind them.

Most of the ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest had gathered here. Those with lower cultivation or those who arrived late could only soak in the water.

The entire Land of Great Misfortune had been decorated with exquisite beauty.

Flowers Flying All Over The Sky never ceased, while Green Vine Ancient Wood formed tree-lined corridors.

Dragon Roaming Star Lake chanted like cannons, and Fragrant Grass Blooming welcomed the newlyweds.

Di Tian's face was full of sorrow.

Damn it! A figure as goddess-like as His Lordship was actually going to marry a human!

And he was just a child!

His Lordship wanted to raise him as a Child Groom!

Even as an Eight Hundred Thousand Year Super Soul Beast, he had never dared harbor the slightest improper thought toward His Lordship!

Even more tragically, aside from His Lordship, there were only two dragons in the entire Land of Great Misfortune.
