Two thirty-thousand-year Qian Jun Ants!
After hearing Zhao Wuji's words, Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran felt the pressure too.
"That isn't right. Soul Beasts this powerful shouldn't be roaming this area."
Zhu Zhuqing's voice was full of bewilderment.
"They certainly shouldn't. The stronger a Soul Beast is, the closer it lives to the heart of the Star Dou Great Forest."

"Martial Soul Avatar!"
Zhao Wuji practically
