Chapter 281 - The Kings' Plans

  "Dad, didn't you say you were going to take me hunting 100,000-year-old soul beasts? Where are we going?" Tang San asked, quite puzzled.

  Tang Hao said calmly, "You'll find out when the time comes."

  Just then, Tang Hao suddenly stopped. He hesitated for a moment, then reached out and stopped Tang San.

  "What's wrong, Dad?" Tang San asked in a low voice, confused.

  "Come with me." Without explaining immediately, Tang Hao, relying on his intuition, quickly rushed forward.

  Seeing this, Tang San gritted his teeth and followed.

  Not far away, red blood flowed slowly on the ground. As far as the eye could see, the ground was a scene of devastation.

  Large numbers of corpses were mangled beyond recognition, and many were torn to shreds. Various body fragments were scattered all over the ground, and the flowing red blood indicated what had just happened.

  A strong stench of blood wafted over from afar. When the Tang father and son smelled this stench, their expressions changed, because there were not only human corpses, but also the corpses of special creatures they had never seen before.

  "What kind of spirit beast is this?" Tang San crouched down, examining the dead Steel Fang Werewolf closely.

  Tang Hao, standing silently beside him, looked down at the mangled clothes of the corpse. A prominent emblem was clearly visible on the clothes, though stained with blood; it was the Spirit Hall's insignia.

  "It's the Spirit Hall," Tang Hao said in a deep voice.

  "The Spirit Hall!" Tang San was startled and immediately stood up, muttering, "Could it be that the Spirit Hall is also here to hunt 100,000-year spirit beasts?"

  "No, they're not here to hunt 100,000-year spirit beasts. It seems they are the ones being hunted," Tang Hao said, shaking his head.

  Hearing this, Tang San was overjoyed. The Spirit Hall was their enemy, and the enemy's death was a tremendous stroke of good fortune.

  "Dad, then we..." Tang San hadn't finished speaking when Tang Hao interrupted, "Little San, let's go. If I'm not mistaken, it seems the spirit beasts launched a coordinated attack on the Spirit Hall. If we're lucky, perhaps we can avenge ourselves today."

  Tang San nodded, his eyes scanning the surroundings. He then suppressed his aura to its lowest point and followed Tang Hao in the direction of the trail.

  However, what the Tang father and son didn't know was that shortly after they left, a swarm of insects suddenly covered the corpses. Immediately afterward, the flesh and bones were rapidly devoured, the blood on the ground was drained, and in less than a few minutes, the remains vanished without a trace.

  ...

  Deep within the Star Dou Great Forest, two figures flashed through the dense forest. These two were none other than two elders of the Spirit Hall, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo.

  Chrysanthemum Douluo was seen carrying the unconscious Hu Liena in his arms, moving quickly. Just recently, they had engaged in a fierce battle; even with two Title Douluo-level powerhouses, they had been utterly defeated.

  Hu Liena's face was ashen, her clothes tattered, a bloody claw mark on her chest, the wound so deep it exposed bone, and her breathing weak.

  "Old Ghost, what do we do?" Looking at Hu Liena's face contorted in pain, Chrysanthemum Douluo's expression was extremely grim. "If we don't treat Nana soon, she'll be in danger."

  Ghost Douluo's face was ferocious; his entire body was covered in wounds, and he was carrying the heavily injured and unconscious Xie Yue and Yan in his hands. This time, their Spirit Hall had suffered a devastating loss.

  "Chrysanthemum Pass, saying anything now is useless. The most urgent thing is to treat these three children as soon as possible."

  The previous battle had made Ghost Douluo realize that those otherworldly beings had no sense of fear. They seemed to be weapons that only knew how to kill. Even if their companions were killed or their bodies destroyed, as long as they were not completely killed, they would rush forward without hesitation and tear off pieces of flesh from their enemies.

  Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo were injured because of this, and the three members of the Golden Generation were more seriously injured. If they did not receive timely treatment, they would be in danger of dying at any time.

  After running for a while longer, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo stopped under an ancient tree. Without any hesitation, the two Title Douluos immediately poured the little soul power they had left into Hu Liena and the other two.

  As the soul power continued to be poured in, Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo's faces grew paler and paler, but even so, they waited until the three's physical condition stabilized before stopping the soul power infusion.

  Immediately afterward, the two Title Douluos hurriedly recovered their soul power. Little did they know that about three kilometers away in the forest, a handsome man dressed in white, with blue-glowing pupils and flowing golden hair, was watching the two humans he had intercepted with great interest.

  "Interesting. I didn't expect the humans of this world to be even more interesting than I imagined." The handsome man stroked his chin, his blue eyes sparkling with curiosity.

  "Your Majesty, those humans escaped with all their might. We don't have the ability to fly and couldn't catch up with them." The werewolf holding a longsword looked respectfully at the handsome man before him. Although they were not subordinates of this king, they knew that the four kings were currently in a cooperative phase, so they still addressed the man before them with a respectful title.

  "Just a bunch of insects. Where can they escape to?" The Demon King didn't care. Or rather, as a superior being, he didn't care about the lives of humans at all. Besides, this forest was the place where they had discussed jointly hunting the Shadow King.

  Once the Shadow King enters this forest, the Illusionary Realm King in the alternate dimension will completely seal off this space, allowing only kings like themselves to enter freely.

  Judging from the current situation, if the Shadow King, who has not yet recovered his strength, enters this forest, his only fate will be death.

  "Dad, what do we do?" Looking at the otherworldly beings gradually surrounding him, Tang San trembled uncontrollably, while Tang Hao beside him wore a grave expression.   

  "I can only unleash my eighth-ring strength right now. If we clash head-on, I'll definitely gain no advantage," Tang Hao thought to himself, gripping the Clear Sky Hammer in one hand.

  Just as Tang Hao was pondering how to break this deadlock, a terrifying scene unfolded.

  Not far away, two tall trees suddenly parted slowly, and then a colossal figure emerged silently. It was as imposing as a mountain, covered in jet-black fur, its body as hard as rock.

  A monster with a bull's head and a snake's body was coiled around it, but what was even more terrifying was that the dark clouds in the sky suddenly began to churn violently, and a gigantic dragon of indeterminate size appeared and disappeared within the clouds. Its body was covered in jet-black scales, radiating a deep purple light.

  "Oh? An ancient dragon?" Upon seeing this, the Demon King's gaze turned to the dragon in the sky, and he asked in confusion.

  Di Tian glanced at the Demon King on the ground, his icy voice ringing out, "I didn't want to be your enemy, but you've gone too far. This is Douluo Continent, not your world. If you know what's good for you, get back here!"

  "Not an ancient dragon..." the Demon King's tone betrayed regret.

  The next moment, before anyone could react, the Demon King suddenly burst into laughter: "Illusionary Realm King, what are you waiting for?"

  "Illusionary Realm King?" Hearing this name, Tang Hao and his son were stunned. Di Tian, ​​who had brought two 100,000-year-old soul beasts, froze. Then, space seemed to distort. Di Tian's golden pupils stared at the Demon King, and he spoke in human language: "This is actually spatial power!"

  No one responded to Di Tian, ​​because the moment the Demon King uttered the words "Illusionary Realm King," the Illusionary Realm King, in another dimension, activated his most prized magic: spatial teleportation magic.

  They weren't the only ones teleported; also, three kilometers away, were Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, and Hu Liena, who were recovering their soul power. It could be said that the Illusionary Realm King's teleportation directly transported everyone from all factions in the Star Dou Great Forest to the battleground between the Beast King and the Shadow King.

  Half an hour earlier.

  The trees here were tall and dense, their canopies blocking out the sun. In the center of the forest lay a huge lake, about a hundred meters in diameter, its clear water like a mirror.

  The central core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest was the true forbidden zone of the entire forest.

  Suddenly

  , a hundred-meter-high splash erupted from the center of the Lake of Life, and a silver figure, its features obscured, appeared in the center of the lake. With a wave of her hand, a water bridge formed from the lake water extended towards the shore.

  "Di Tian, ​​outsiders have appeared in the Star Dou Great Forest. You must immediately take the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape to deal with them, otherwise, the Star Dou Great Forest will surely face a great disaster."

  A clear, calm voice rang in Di Tian's ears. Without any hesitation, he vanished from the spot in a flash.

  After Di Tian left, a burst of silver light erupted from the silver figure, revealing a stunningly beautiful woman with an exquisite face. Her eyes were incredibly beautiful, with long, curled eyelashes and clear, bright purple eyes. Her long silver hair cascaded down her back to her ankles.

  "I never expected to wake up to find such a thing happening on the Douluo Continent. If it weren't for a special energy that accelerated my recovery recently, I might still be asleep." Her

  pale purple eyes revealed mystery and nobility. Gu Yue pondered for a moment, then followed. She suddenly felt uneasy about Di Tian, ​​or rather, she was worried about those otherworldly beings.

  Although Di Tian was powerful, he was not invincible. If those otherworldly beings were too strong, Di Tian would likely not gain any advantage.

  Meanwhile, in a clearing in the Star Dou Great Forest,

  two figures moved at near-impossible speed, their movements so fast that only afterimages could be seen.

  The Snow Empress and Ice Empress couldn't even see their attacks clearly, only hearing the deafening "bang bang bang bang bang..." sounds.

  "Snow Empress, should we help?" This was the first time the Ice Empress had seen someone fight Cheng Xiao to such an

  extent. However, the Ice Empress didn't know that the blood and magic of the deceased kings had nourished this land. Thus, the kings who descended upon the Douluo Continent could use almost 70% of their full power.

  Cheng Xiao's body had been enhanced by the magic of three kings, and his physical strength and magic power had long surpassed those of a Title Douluo. This was why he could fight the Beast King without being at a disadvantage.

  Even so, after a primal battle, Cheng Xiao was still sent flying by a single punch from the fully transformed Beast King.

  Before transforming into his beast form, the Beast King realized he was no match for Cheng Xiao, but he was also powerless against him. However, once he completed his transformation, the tide of the battle turned completely.

  The instant the Beast King's eyes transformed from human to beastly, his long black hair gradually turned white and even began to grow longer.

  His awl-like nails lengthened, his teeth became sharper, and long white fur covered his entire body.

  The ferocious demonic power emanating from the Beast King's eyes startled the Ice Empress and Snow Empress, who were unable to intervene. They felt a chill run down their spines in those beast-like eyes.

  "The game is over. How can an incomplete king possibly defeat a true king..."
