Target of the Body-Snatching

"How did he do it?"

Di Tian was greatly shocked. Although he placed most of his spiritual power on Zi Ji, he, who knew Xiong Jun's personality well, naturally would keep a fraction of attention on him.

Never had he imagined that this fellow actually slipped away quietly under his own perception.

Di Tian did not worry that Xiong Jun would not return. With the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, a portable charger capable of rapidly growing stronger, and the fact that Xiong Jun understood his personality, he would not do anything too outrageous.

The only thing to worry about was the fear that Xiong Jun would let loose and carouse, thereby drawing out other troubles and even affecting the Lord.

"This is..."

Just at this moment, Di Tian perceived through his spiritual power that there was an aura left behind by Xiong Jun not far away.

Di Tian's figure flickered as he had already arrived there, and what came into his view was a letter.

"What is this Xiong Jun trying to do?"

The moment he saw this letter, Di Tian's expression instantly darkened.

He had a bad premonition.

"Di Tian, I do not approve of pinning all hope on the existence of a single being. I have my own thoughts and the path I chose myself."

"I will use facts to prove to you that my choice is right."

"You don't need to worry that your existence will be exposed. By the time you read this letter, I have already erased the memories related to that person."

"Within ten thousand years, just ten thousand years' time-if I still haven't contacted you after ten thousand years, it means I have already failed."

After reading the letter left behind by Xiong Jun, Di Tian was furious.

He truly had not expected that Xiong Jun would actually do such a thing.

Di Tian's spiritual power operated and searched frantically, yet he never found Xiong Jun's aura.

That fellow seemed to have vanished into thin air.

In the end, Di Tian had to leave.

Having stayed outside for too long, some accidents were bound to occur.

The Lord's order was that all Ferocious Beasts were to hibernate before he woke up.

And where was the Ferocious Beast Xiong Jun located at this moment?

Deep underground, a thousand meters below a large mountain not far away.

He urged his spiritual power to the limit; it could indeed provide brief concealment, and when Di Tian was paying attention to other matters, it was still not easy to discover him.

Even so, he still felt it was insecure, which was why he dug a hole and hid himself at the very first moment.

"I'll just stay here for a few months before taking action."

He still chose to hide for a period of time; after all, safety was better.

Once caught by Di Tian, it would not be as simple as just getting a beating, and he would also never have the opportunity to escape again.

Having nothing to do, he began to take stock of his assets.

With a thought, a full dozen Soul Bones were taken out by him from the storage ring.

Among these Soul Bones, two were obtained from Xiong Jun's clansmen-one ten-thousand-year left palm bone, which was the so-called External Soul Bone, and one two-hundred-thousand-year left arm bone.

Both of these had quite a story and background.

From the memories of the original Xiong Jun, it could be known that that left palm bone was spat out after one of his clansmen was slain by a human Soul Master many, many years ago. This clansman's bloodline and talent were very good, and he was deeply trusted by Xiong Jun.

He never expected to die accidentally at the hands of a human Soul Master, and when Xiong Jun arrived, it was already too late.

Xiong Jun killed those human Soul Masters and brought back his clansman's Soul Bone.

As for that two-hundred-thousand-year left arm bone, it was the relic of an old rival when Xiong Jun was still at one hundred thousand years.

This was a two-hundred-thousand-year Diamond Tiger that failed its tribulation, leaving only this Soul Bone behind.

It was also one of Xiong Jun's most precious collections.

As for the other Soul Bones, the lowest were all ten-thousand-year ones, which Xiong Jun had secretly plundered from other Ferocious Beasts.

Although these Soul Bones were useless to the Soul Beasts themselves, whenever they encountered them, they would put them away, unwilling to let them fall into the hands of human Soul Masters and thus subsidize the enemy.

Now they were considered a bargain for him.

Among these remaining Soul Bones, there were also two Soul Bones of very high age.

One was a ten-thousand-year Golden Earth Dragon King right leg bone, and the other was a three-hundred-thousand-year white dragon left leg bone.

These were all Di Tian's prized possessions.

As for where Di Tian obtained them from, that was unknown.

"Can I be considered a beast traitor?"

Looking at these Soul Bones, he smiled self-deprecatingly.

Although he accidentally reincarnated as Xiong Jun, he still regarded himself as a human after all.

Ultimately, he was not completely assimilated.

Of course, if one day he possessed sufficient ability, he would still try his best to help Di Tian and the others.

These fellows were all rather good to him, even including Di Tian.

If Di Tian were replaced by any other existence, he would have been killed by the other party long ago for acting this way.

Of course, this premise was that he possessed sufficient ability.

If he could not accomplish it, then he would simply look after himself.

Looking at the soul bone in his hand, he found it very hard to understand what those hundred-thousand-year soul beasts that underwent soul beast transformation were thinking, and why they did not prepare more before the transformation.

Not to mention others, he would just take Xiao Wu as an example.

Backed by two hundred-thousand-year soul beasts, she still belonged to the overlord-level existence in the present Star Dou Great Forest, and collecting some ten-thousand-year soul bones for her was still something that could be achieved.

After awakening her martial soul, she could directly fuse with a complete set of ten-thousand-year soul bones to strengthen her physique and foundation.

With the help of the characteristic that the first seven soul rings could condense autonomously before a soul beast transformed, and with such a foundation, perhaps her second soul ring and third soul ring could be condensed into ten-thousand-year soul rings.

Although self-condensing soul rings would consume the remaining origin cultivation from the soul beast transformation, even if she could only condense four or five soul rings in the early stage, it would still be worth it to have a better enhancement, and after having this foundation, the age of the soul rings hunted down later could also be higher.

It was precisely because of this reason that he had made such preparations in advance.

Now he already had three soul bones of over a hundred thousand years in his hand.

They were a two-hundred-thousand-year left arm bone, coming from the Diamond Tiger King.

A hundred-thousand-year right leg bone, coming from the hundred-thousand-year Golden Earth Dragon King.

A three-hundred-thousand-year left leg bone, coming from a white dragon.

Coupled with the soul bones contained within his own body at that time, he only needed to gather two more hundred-thousand-year soul bones to possess a complete set of hundred-thousand-year soul bones.

He indeed knew where there was a hundred-thousand-year soul bone during this time period; naturally, it was the Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone left behind after Tang San's mother sacrificed herself.

Unfortunately, the soul bone locations overlapped.

After taking stock of the soul bones and other supplies, he began to ponder his next path.

Since he had already decided to clear out a person's soul and subsequently take over their body, he needed to find the right target.

There were not many selectable people in this era.

The one who could definitely attain godhood was naturally Qian Renxue.

Yet she was directly vetoed by him.

It was very simple: Qian Renxue was a woman.

Moreover, Qian Renxue at this time period already possessed fairly high cultivation, and her martial soul origin had been completely activated; wanting to clear out her soul was not appropriate.

It was best to find an existence that had not yet obtained a soul ring.

Once a soul master obtained three soul rings, the martial soul origin would be activated and resonate with themselves; therefore, he had to choose a gifted youth who had not yet completely grown up at this time.

Aside from Qian Renxue, the most suitable one was naturally Tang San.

To tell the truth, directly seizing Tang San's body was the most suitable thing.

Yet he truly did not dare to try.

After all, this fellow was very likely directly detained here by the Asura God King.

Although the Asura God King did not constantly stare at the Douluo Plane like the Tang San after ten thousand years, if Tang San was truly detained by him, him carrying out a body seizure on Tang San was by no means a secure move.

Perhaps there really has to be a suitable candidate; calculating the time, right now he is only about three and a half years old, after all.

Soon he locked onto a target: the third prince of the Star Luo Empire, Dai Mubai.

The White Tiger Martial Soul also belonged to a power-type martial soul, and in the future Dai Mubai even took the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, so there were not too many conflicts in terms of martial soul attributes.

After all, what he needed to do was not a sacrifice, but soul occupation; as for the soul beast's own power, it was sealed within the body.

If after the body seizure, the soul essence was human as he anticipated, he would think of a way to scheme for the Sea God Godhood.

If after the body seizure he discovered the soul essence was a soul beast, he would hitch a ride on Tang San to become a Second-Level God, the War God.

By that time, even if the Divine Realm detected the clues within it, with Tang San-a god king-to rely on, they would not say much more.

Although the War God was only a second-level god, no matter what, it was still a deity after all, stronger than being a soul beast at the mercy of others at any time.

Thinking it over and over, Dai Mubai truly was a rather good candidate.
