Chapter 199 Escape, Pursuit by Di Tian and Other Ferocious Beasts.
The air in the Starry Sky Forest froze completely in an instant.
In the distant forest, a deep black crack quietly opened.
Without any warning, four figures stepped out of the void, forming a fan shape to surround Liu Yuan, Du Busi, and Long Aotian.
The leader was dressed in a long black robe, tall and slender, with deep pupils that seemed to devour light.
Behind him, a gigantic dark gold dinosaur, a crimson lion radiating a scorching aura, and a woman with an exquisite face dressed in a light green dress appeared one after another.
Emperor Tian. Bear King. Crimson King. Jade Princess.
The top combat forces of the Star Dou Great Forest have gathered here at this moment.
Poison Undying, who had been holding the two people, suddenly tightened his grip. The domineering aura of a level 98 Super Douluo on his body was forced to shrink inward in front of these four ferocious beasts.
His eyes were wide open, staring intently at Di Tian, who was at the head of the group, his body muscles tensed to the extreme at this moment.
"Beast God Di Tian," Poison Immortal said in a deep voice, "what are you doing here?"
Liu Yuan also felt this pressure.
Besides the ferocious beasts like Di Tian, a lion with a dark golden body and a vertical pupil in the center of its forehead was staring intently at Di Tian from his shoulder.
A powerful force of destiny flickered in those eyes.
"Junior brother, what exactly is going on?" Long Aotian stood in front of Liu Yuan, the dark golden drills on his arms reappearing. "Why have so many ferocious beasts suddenly appeared?"
Liu Yuan did not answer immediately; the purple-gold patterns in his double pupils flashed wildly.
His gaze swept forward, and finally, it settled on the body of the three-eyed golden lion on Di Tian's shoulder.
At this moment, the three-eyed golden lion was staring intently at Liu Yuan, its eyes filled with intense killing intent.
"Damn humans! You think you can escape?"
"Back then, wasn't it you who killed my friend, the Space Beast?"
"You don't need to deny it, I sensed his spirit ring!"
"I will avenge him!"
Hearing the three-eyed golden lion's clamor, Liu Yuan finally understood.
So, the 100,000-year-old space beast I hunted last time was friends with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion?
Although he wasn't caught by the Three-Eyed Golden Lion at the time, this soul beast possessed a strong sense of destiny. Now that he had absorbed its soul ring, he naturally had a portion of the unique aura of a space beast. So it seemed that he had been locked onto by it as soon as he entered the Star Dou Great Forest.
"This is troublesome." After figuring out everything, Liu Yuan's face turned ugly.
Even though he couldn't be poisoned to death, his brows were furrowed in worry.
He is now under immense pressure from Di Tian.
If it were a one-on-one fight, he might still have a fighting chance, but with Xiong Jun, Chi Wang and Bi Ji joining the fray, even if he possessed the combat power of a Super Douluo, there would be absolutely no chance of survival against such a large-scale attack.
"withdraw."
Poisoning was swift and decisive, without any hesitation.
He turned to Long Aotian and Liu Yuan and shouted, "You two run towards the edge of the forest, don't look back! I'll cover your retreat!"
Before he finished speaking, Poison Undying's bones emitted a series of cracking sounds, and a layer of dark golden light quickly appeared on his skin, a characteristic of his physical martial soul awakening at the gold level.
"Get out of my way!"
Poison Undying swung his right fist out fiercely, and endless emerald green toxins and violent soul power shockwaves erupted in that instant, like a green tsunami, directly crashing towards the direction where Di Tian was.
Di Tian's expression was indifferent. He did not make a move himself, but simply stretched out his right hand and clenched it in the air.
"Space blockade".
As Di Tian moved, the air within a radius of a thousand meters became as hard as iron.
The toxins and shockwaves emitted by Poison Undying were forcibly distorted into another dimension the moment they came into contact with that layer of space.
"Trying to leave?"
Xiong Jun let out a wild laugh, his thick legs stomping the ground, causing the earth to crack, and two dark gold claws, each a hundred meters long, tore through the air and slammed down towards Liu Yuan and the other two.
Poison Undying's figure flickered, forcibly tearing a gap in the spatial seal. He pushed out with both palms, transforming the poison into several solidified chains, barely managing to withstand Xiong Jun's claw attacks.
"Run! Now!" Poison Undying roared, green blood seeping from every pore of his body—the backlash from forcibly activating his Gold-level awakening.
Liu Yuan grabbed Long Aotian, not wasting this only chance to retreat.
He unfurled his amethyst wings, used the Qilin Protection Technique, and combined it with Long Aotian's explosive speed, becoming a streak of purple-gold light as he raced madly toward the edge of the forest.
Poison Undying unleashed a furious barrage of attacks from the rear, its emerald green soul power completely engulfing the mountain valley.
He single-handedly held off the combined attack of Di Tian and the three ferocious beasts.
After running at full speed for a full half hour, the two finally broke through the boundary of the Star Dou Great Forest and rushed into the outer wasteland.
After confirming that there were no pursuers behind him, Poisonous Undying stumbled out of the bushes in the distance. His dark green robe was tattered, revealing large patches of skin with burn marks.
He stopped on the wasteland, suddenly sat down on the ground, and gasped for breath.
He grabbed a handful of wild grass from beside him, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed, trying to calm the chaotic soul power within his body.
"What the hell?" Du Busi cursed, looking at Liu Yuan and Long Aotian who were still panting.
"Why would Di Tian of the Star Dou Great Forest personally lead an ambush? And with monsters like Xiong Jun and Chi Wang? Are they crazy? We didn't provoke them!"
Long Aotian was also adjusting his breathing. He looked at the Starry Sky Forest in the distance, which was still as quiet as an abyss, and felt lingering fear: "If it weren't for you, Master, using your Gold-level Awakening to forcibly break through space, the three of us would really have died there today."
Liu Yuan raised his head and looked at the distant forest silhouette gradually disappearing into the clouds. He remained silent for a long time before his gaze finally settled on the void.
"Master, do you still remember the space beast from last time?" Liu Yuan asked in a deep voice.
"Why are we talking about that again?" Poisonous Undying's breathing eased slightly, and he frowned.
"Because that three-eyed golden lion and that space beast are old friends." Liu Yuan's expression was gloomy.
"Since I absorbed the soul ring of a space beast, I possess the unique aura of a space beast. And that three-eyed golden lion has a special sensory ability. So, due to a combination of factors, we were captured..."
Poison Undying spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva, his eyes flashing with a cold light: "So that's how it is. No wonder this happened."
"However, this has made things a bit complicated."
"That thing is an auspicious beast of the Star Dou Great Forest, and it's not easy to kill. But if we don't kill it, it can sense your approach. In that case, it's probably not a good place to go in the Star Dou Great Forest in the future."
