Douluo: Rock King, the King of the World

Chapter 16 Zhongli's Wish

The Snow Tiger King, who had roamed the Arctic ice field for more than 100,000 years, fell just like that. A dark golden torso bone was exploded from the huge corpse, and Dugu Bo and the two priests in the distance trembled in their hearts.

Although this tiger king was killed by another soul beast and did not produce any soul rings, this soul bone is still a genuine one that is more than 100,000 years old! The three golden lines should represent 300,000 years of cultivation.

They had heard some rumors before, that soul beasts with a cultivation of more than 100,000 years could change their forms at will, switching between beast form and human form. This was not a soul beast of 100,000 years that had transformed and rebuilt. Although it looked like a human, it was still a genuine soul beast inside, and its terrifying cultivation of more than 100,000 years would not be weakened at all.

Now it seems that this is all true. This girl in the emerald dress looks younger than Dugu Bo's daughter Dugu Yan, but Dugu Bo thinks to himself that he might not even be able to hit a little finger of her. How could this be a human?
"sister!"

After the three troublemakers were all dead, the girl ignored Zhongli and the others, but immediately returned to the woman in white with a worried look on her face.

"Bing'er, I'm fine. The toxins left in my body by the Ice Scale Eel Snake King will be completely eliminated in a month at most."

The woman in white shook her head and said softly. She looked at the girl with a trace of shame. In this battle, the Ice Emperor burned the precious life force of the beast for himself; the next catastrophe.
"Thank you friends for your timely rescue."

The woman in white stood up at this time, looked at Zhongli and Ying, and said in a gentle voice. When she looked at the two people, a hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes; let's not talk about their appearance, the man was handsome and elegant, and the woman was also beautiful and charming. Even though she was born of pure snow and was very confident in her appearance, she was not so confident in front of this woman.

More importantly, the temperament and the depth in their eyes made them look like two extremely ancient beings, and they looked like they were looking down on the ups and downs of the world. Even when facing the Beast God Emperor Tian, ​​they seemed to lack this feeling.

Are these really two humans? Moreover, with the few spirit rings on them, how could they have exploded with such terrifying power just now?

Although it was a sneak attack, and the Ice Scale Eel Snake King was already at the end of its strength; but if it were two ordinary Soul Sect members, or even Soul Kings and Soul Emperors, even if the Ice Scale Eel Snake King stood still and let them attack for a whole day, they might not be able to scratch a single scale of the Ice Scale Eel Snake King.

In fact, not to mention the Snow Queen, even Dugu Bo and the two priests were a little confused. They also knew that the strength of these two princes was extraordinary, not as simple as the surface soul power level, at least they were geniuses who could fight against each other. But they could never have imagined that it would be so terrifying!
Dugu Bo even doubted whether he, a Titled Douluo, could withstand the sword and gun attacks of Zhongli and Ying in a head-on confrontation.
It makes my scalp tingle just thinking about it.

"My name is Xueli, and this is my friend, Ying. And these three came with me to visit the two kings."

Zhongli faced Xue Di and introduced everyone first. Dugu Bo and the other two were stunned, not knowing why Zhongli wanted to hide the relationship between Ying and him; but they didn't know that what Zhongli said was the truth at this moment.

"I wonder what brings you all the way to visit us sisters? What can I do for you?"

Perhaps because she had just received help from Zhongli, Xue Di spoke politely, without showing any hostility towards her territory being invaded by humans. It was rare for the king of soul beasts to have such a good conversation with humans in his own territory.

"I came here to ask you for only one thing, and that is to form an alliance."

Zhongli looked into Xue Di's icy blue eyes and spoke in a sincere tone without a trace of wavering.

"Your last name is Xue? Could it be that you are the prince of the Tiandou Empire?"

Snow Queen glanced at Zhongli and suddenly asked. Obviously, the Lord of the Far North was not completely ignorant of the human world.

"Is the current emperor of the human world still Xue Canglan? Well, that's not right. Although he was still a teenager when I last saw him, only a few years older than you look; but with your human lifespan, he should have been gone long ago after three hundred years. So, are you his great-grandson? Or great-great-grandson?" Xue Di looked at Zhongli and asked.

"Emperor Xue Canglan was the previous emperor five generations ago. My father Xue Ye is the current emperor of the Tiandou Empire and has been in power for forty years."

Zhongli shook his head and replied.

To the soul beasts with long lives, everything in the human world seemed a little too short. Even the history of the entire Tiandou Empire was just a fleeting moment in the eyes of the Snow Queen.

However, compared to the long years, the strength of these soul beasts is too weak to be justified. Even the Snow Emperor in front of him, who has practiced for hundreds of thousands of years, is not even a match for the Coconut Sheep who has practiced for two thousand years in Zhongli's opinion.

"Human, you have helped us, and I should not have rejected your request. However, I am sorry that I cannot agree to your alliance."

Xue Di shook his head slowly and said.

"Little prince, you helped us, and I am very grateful. But this does not mean that we soul beasts can be friends with you humans. For example, there are many soul masters from your Tiandou Empire who come to kill our people in the Far North."

Bingdi also interrupted at this time. She looked at Zhongli with a complicated look in her eyes.

"If you want to talk about this, please go back. We in the Far North will never interfere in the affairs of your human world. These soul bones are of no value to us, but they are very precious to you humans. If you want them, take them away."

Xue Di sighed and said. Hearing this, Dugu Bo and the two priests showed ecstasy on their faces.

In their view, the idea of ​​forming an alliance was nothing more than a fantasy. It was not uncommon for people to cooperate with intelligent soul beasts in ancient times, but the consequences were usually not good. Later, as humans became increasingly powerful and soul beast forces retreated, no one would consider such a thing.

However, I got three soul bones of more than 100,000 years in one go. This was worth the trip! No, to say it was worth the trip was far from enough to describe it.

The Tiandou Empire has been established for so many years, and now there are only a few soul bones of ten thousand years in the treasury, not to mention the soul bones of one hundred thousand years. In history, there have been only a few Titled Douluo who are willing to work for the Tiandou Empire, so where can they get soul bones of one hundred thousand years?
Moreover, the strength of an ordinary 100,000-year soul beast is only equivalent to that of a Titled Douluo, while these beings who are powerful enough to transform into human form are at least equivalent to Super Douluo at level 95 or above. Even for the Spirit Hall, it would be extremely difficult to hunt down such a being.

The two priests were a little worried that they had obtained three pieces at once. They thought that Emperor Xue Ye would have a hard time accepting the news - he was old and couldn't be too happy!

"Do humans and soul beasts have to fight each other on this continent?"

Unexpectedly, Zhongli sighed and said slowly.

Ying glanced at Zhongli. She knew what Zhongli was thinking.

Although her philosophy in Inazuma is different from Zhongli's, she adopts the method of using force to intimidate and suppress the world, and a castle tower calms the waves of the four seas. In Inazuma, it can be seen that humans are respected, and creatures such as monsters and ghosts are closer to the status of supporting roles.

However, she would not object to Zhongli. After all, she also had a good friend, or her closest companion when she was in Inazuma, who was not a human. Moreover, compared to the social magistrates, the heavenly magistrates, the Kanjo magistrates, etc., which were always managed by humans, it seemed that her old friend would make her less worried.
