Xiong Jun Flees

"Di Tian, you will definitely regret this!"

Inside a secret dimensional space deep underground beneath the Lake of Life in the Star Dou Great Forest, a golden giant bear of massive physique was slapped down from the sky to the ground by an even more massive black dragon.

Even though the golden giant bear coughed up blood frantically, his pupils remained filled with unyielding defiance, and he roared furiously at the black dragon.

This golden giant bear was precisely the four-hundred-thousand-year super ferocious beast, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, Xiong Jun!

As for that black dragon, it was precisely the over-eight-hundred-thousand-thousand-year super ferocious beast, the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, the beast god Di Tian!

Only, this Xiong Jun was not that Xiong Jun.

A thousand years ago, because Xiong Jun could not endure the loneliness and wanted to leave this place, he thereby angered Di Tian, and was subsequently severely wounded by Di Tian with a Dragon God Claw, fainting on the spot.

After waking up once more, his soul had already been replaced by a youth from Blue Star.

Taking a full thousand years of time, the youth had only then completely gained control of all of Xiong Jun's power, and made him become even more powerful.

Transmigrating to the Douo Continent and becoming the ferocious beast Xiong Jun, the youth truly wanted to curse.

Within the system of the Douluo Continent, soul beasts were truly pathetic, destined to be consumable materials on the path of a soul master's growth.

A soul beast for a day, a soul beast for a lifetime; even if they transformed into human form, in the eyes of the continent's soul masters, in the eyes of the gods of the Divine Realm, he remained a soul beast, destined to be unable to attain godhood.

Unless he possessed a god king backing him up.

The most critical point was that soul beasts only had one chance at transformation, needing to possess one hundred thousand years of cultivation, and not yet having weathered the soul beast lightning tribulation.

Having inherited Xiong Jun's over four hundred thousand years of cultivation, he did not even possess the qualifications for transformation.

As for sacrificing himself, acting as a soul ring, or alternatively waiting for the opportunity to become a soul spirit and thereby hitch a ride to ascend to the Divine Realm, that was merely living under someone else's thumb and lingering on in a moribund state.

Arriving within the Divine Realm, he would still have to live under someone else's thumb.

Thus, he thought about attempting to alter the original storyline, obstructing Tang San's attainment of godhood as much as possible; without Tang San, the situation of the Divine Realm would be completely different, and perhaps the Silver Dragon King would have a glimmer of survival, becoming the true hope of soul beasts.

Upon perceiving that among those two one-hundred-thousand-year soft bone rabbits in the Lake of Life only one remained, he knew that the time close to the timeline in the original work was about to begin, and he suggested to Di Tian that they do something.

The result was very clear; Di Tian did not agree, insisting on waiting until the Silver Dragon King awoke and obeying her directives.

Because he was somewhat offensive in speech, he then began getting beaten.

After crawling up from the ground, he honestly came to the side of the Tian Meng-brand Power Bank, beginning to absorb the other party's origin power to recover from the just-consumed energy.

In reality, in his heart he was pondering other ways out.

Xiao Wu had not yet transformed, and Tang San had not yet become the Asura God King, so it was still possible to attempt to manipulate things.

He certainly did not wish to ultimately be dragged to his death by that stupid creature, the Silver Dragon King.

However, how on earth could he change the current situation?

The paths left for soul beasts were just those few, and the selectability was not much.

The simplest method was to find an opportunity to slip out, directly sacrificing himself to Tang San, and making Tang San take an oath with his martial soul to resurrect him after attaining godhood.

Perhaps he might even be able to be like the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, mingling and acting as a spirit official when the time came.

Tang San at this stage, although having points open to criticism, was still considered not bad.

Yet he truly was unwilling to be controlled by others.

Perhaps the Snow Empress's path of transformation can be referenced somewhat!

He thought of the Snow Empress's transformation; although it failed due to the intervention of external forces, it was ultimately a viable scheme.

As a soul beast of seven hundred thousand years, the Snow Empress had already missed the opportunity for transformation, but she had found a Hundred-Thousand-Year Snow Lotus, erased the other party's soul, and taken possession of the other party's body, thereby transforming; as for her own power, it was sealed within the body formed by the snow lotus's transformation.

This method indeed possessed feasibility, but what it walked was still the path of soul beast transformation, and still could not bypass that dead end.

What if I directly erase the soul of a human soul master and take possession of it?

Having transmigrated over, my soul is essentially still human in nature; might it be feasible?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt he could try it out.

At worst it was simply death, which was better than living in such a cowardly and stifled manner.

Yet the problem was that he was not skilled in matters of the soul.

Whether it was power, defensive capability, or lethality, Xiong Jun was extremely formidable, but solely speed and spiritual power were his shortboards.

Thus, he cast his gaze toward Di Tian not far away and the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm who was currently being used as a power bank.

"Di Tian, share your insights regarding spiritual power with me. When I become stronger I will defeat you again."

He did not have any hesitation, directly speaking this reason that sounded extremely absurd to Di Tian.

"Xiong Jun, what makes you think I would teach you to become stronger, when the purpose of becoming stronger is still to beat me."

Di Tian looked at Xiong Jun, feeling as though he had just beaten this fellow's brain until it was broken.

Otherwise, how could he speak such nonsense?

"Di Tian, you have defeated me multiple times, yet I still remain unconvinced by you, because I have shortboards while you do not."

"Once I patch up my spiritual power shortboards, if I am still not your match, I will thoroughly submit to you. From then on, regardless of what you say, I will listen to you."

Xiong Jun wore an expression of taking it for granted.

Di Tian was left speechless.

Yet in the end, he agreed.

The reason was simple; on one hand it was to strengthen the faction of the Ferocious Beasts to better protect the Lord, while as for the other reason, naturally he wanted to completely subdue Xiong Jun.

Over the next period of time, Di Tian held nothing back as he imparted all his insights regarding spiritual power to Xiong Jun.

Not only that, besides Di Tian, Xiong Jun constantly sought guidance from the other Ferocious Beasts as well.

"Myriad Demon King, don't be stingy. Look, even Di Tian imparted everything to me without reservation."

"Scarlet King, hand over your insights into spiritual power, or I'll smash your dog head with a single bear paw."

"Yaoling, you're the only one who understands!"

"Big bug, you wouldn't want me to subject you to a rough ravaging, would you? Just be a good boy and listen, and I'll be gentler with you in the future."

Relying on coercion, enticement, and despicable, shameless methods, Xiong Jun continuously absorbed the attainments in spiritual power of the other Ferocious Beasts.

To his utter astonishment, apart from Di Tian, the one among these Ferocious Beasts with the most extraordinary research and insights into spiritual power and soul was actually the human power bank, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.

To a certain extent, this fellow was not a pure piece of trash. The fundamental reason why he possessed over nine hundred thousand years of power yet could not unleash it was that his racial talent restricted him.

The bloodline of the Golden-Patterned Ice Silkworm clan was ultimately a bit weak.

Of course, there was an even more important reason, which was that he had too much energy inside his body and could not control it, making it a burden instead.

It was just like a small horse pulling a heavy cart.

Previously, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm ate and slept, slept and ate, and probably pondered nothing at all.

Ever since he became a human power bank, however, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm-suffering constant torment and unable to fall into deep slumber-began to learn to use his brain to think about things and started trying to research the application of his own spiritual power.

One had to admit that suffering truly was the fertile soil of inspiration.

It helped him enormously.

Next was the Myriad Demon King, Yaoling.

As for Scarlet King, he couldn't be bothered to evaluate him.

He also consulted Bi Ji. Although Bi Ji had some experience, it was not her specialty.

In the blink of an eye, ten years passed.

Within these ten years, he integrated the strengths of all the major Ferocious Beasts, making leaps and bounds in spiritual power. Although the volume of his spiritual power still fell short of Di Tian's and the Myriad Demon King's, in terms of manipulation in certain areas, he had already surpassed them.

After all, he had a clear goal from the very beginning with specialized research, so achieving results was entirely natural.

That hundred-thousand-year Soft Bone Rabbit in the Star Dou Great Forest began its transformation not long ago.

He knew that Tang San had also descended, and it was time to find an opportunity to secretly leave this place.

However, opportunities were not easy to find.

It required waiting, and it required creation.

Heaven rewards those who do not give up.

Half a year later, Di Tian suddenly sensed that a Soul Beast had successfully survived the twenty-thousand-year ferocious beast lightning tribulation, and it was even of the dragon clan.

Such an existence naturally had to be brought back by Di Tian at the first possible moment.

"Di Tian, let me go with you. I promise I absolutely won't cause any trouble; I've just been cooped up here for too long and want to go out to get some fresh air."

He hurriedly proposed.

"Very well, but I warn you in advance: during this process, if you really try to pull any stunts, I will definitely not spare you."

Di Tian thought about it and still agreed.

He also knew Xiong Jun's personality, and making him stay for so long was truly somewhat difficult for him.

Coupled with the fact that Xiong Jun had behaved extremely well-behaved these past few years, he simply decided to give him a chance.

This entity that had just survived the twenty-thousand-year ferocious beast heavenly tribulation was precisely Zi Ji.

After Di Tian found the other party and used absolute force to persuade her, Zi Ji quickly agreed to submit and join.

"Not good!"

Right at this moment, Di Tian detected an abnormality, and Xiong Jun was gone.
