Douluo Continent: The Ten Kings of Hell, I am the Emperor of the Underworld

Chapter 81 Suppressing with a Twist, Di Tian Goes to the Underworld
"Tell me, why do you help humans hunt down their own kind of soul beasts?"

Di Tian's icy gaze made the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape dare not raise their heads.

But they dared not reveal their reasons for helping Tang Hao, for if they did, Sister Xiaowu would be in danger.

"explain."

Seeing them with their heads down and not saying a word, Di Tian became even angrier.

His "speak" carried the sound of a dragon's roar, releasing the full pressure of the dragon race, which forced the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape to their knees with a thud.

"Beast God, we are not traitors to the soul beasts."

"We have our reasons."

In their view, they were helping Xiao Wu, not helping humans, so how could they be considered traitors to the soul beasts?

"Stubborn."

Di Tian stretched out his hand to the two of them, his palm ignoring spatial distance and directly arriving in front of Da Ming and Er Ming.

They both tried to escape, but Di Tian's powerful dragon might made them tremble from the depths of their souls, and the space around them was imprisoned by Di Tian, ​​so there was no way to escape.

The Dragon God's Claw ignored the powerful defenses of the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, severely injuring them with a single strike.

“If you won’t talk, I have plenty of ways to make you talk.”

Soul beasts are not a single race, and it is normal for them to fight and kill each other. Di Tian does not forbid soul beasts from fighting each other for survival and to become stronger.

However, soul beasts that have reached 100,000 years of age must abide by the rules.

Soul beasts are already in a difficult situation, facing hunting by humans. If these high-level soul beasts also kill each other, they will be at the mercy of humans.

The Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape were imprisoned by Di Tian, ​​pressed firmly to the ground, unable to move, hear, or see, completely confined.

Ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts are too rare and not absolutely necessary. Di Tian is unwilling to kill the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape. He still needs to think about how to deal with them.

"If you want to know why they became traitors to the soul beasts, you can ask me."

Ning Qiuyang, who had witnessed a good show, said with a smile.

Di Tian used the Dragon God Claw, a powerful move, against these two 100,000-year-old soul beasts, primarily to show Ning Qiuyang what he was capable of.

The intention was to warn Ning Qiuyang not to think that having spatial abilities was something special, as he also possessed spatial abilities and could even imprison space.

However, Ning Qiuyang's Underworld Passage is not an ordinary spatial soul skill, but rather a spatial movement that relies on the entire Underworld.

As long as Di Tian doesn't have the ability to seal off the entire underworld in an instant, it won't have much of an impact on Ning Qiuyang.

If Di Tian had such abilities, he would have already attacked the God Realm. Why would he be hiding in such a tiny place in the core of the Star Dou Great Forest?

"No need. I will handle matters concerning us soul beasts. You can now state your purpose."

"Okay." Ning Qiuyang didn't care about Di Tian's attitude.

"I would like to ask Your Excellency the Beast God to help me find three soul beasts that are over 100,000 years old. I have a great need for them."

Di Tian's eyes sharpened.

He thought that Ning Qiuyang meant the great use of a soul ring from a soul beast that was over 100,000 years old. Wasn't that treating him like those two idiots, the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape?

Before Di Tian could react, Ning Qiuyang continued.

"My underworld is newly established, and it needs three guardian beasts to protect it. The chosen soul beasts will benefit greatly. Not only can they avoid heavenly tribulations, but they can also quickly improve their strength and even transform their soul beast power into divine power."

The Prison-Suppressing Divine Beast does not belong to the underworld deity system, but its importance even surpasses that of half a god. Although it does not have the abilities that come with a god, its growth is not limited.

Di Tian's expression changed.

"Are you telling the truth?"

Countless soul beasts perished under the heavenly tribulation when they reached the level of 100,000 years.

If there truly is a way to prevent soul beasts from suffering heavenly tribulations, their strength will undoubtedly see a significant boost.

Di Tian was highly skeptical of Ning Qiuyang's words. Heavenly tribulations were rules established by the divine realm, and even if Ning Qiuyang were a first-level god, he couldn't change that, let alone if he wasn't a god yet.

"If you're not afraid I'll ambush you, then come with me."

Ning Qiuyang waved his hand, opening the passage between the Yin and Yang realms, and the Road to the Underworld appeared beneath his feet.

"This is……"

A look of shock appeared in Di Tian's golden eyes.

He sensed the aura of another world from the other side of the Yellow Springs Road, a world completely different from Douluo Continent and not governed by the God Realm.

Moreover, Di Tian felt an extremely comfortable aura from this world.

Ning Qiuyang stepped onto the road to the underworld, and Di Tian followed without any hesitation.

"What's going on with this world? Why did the lingering, bone-penetrating power of the heavenly tribulation disappear the moment I stepped into this place?"

Although Di Tian would not face the Heavenly Tribulation in the short term, the pressure from the Heavenly Tribulation was always there until he entered the Underworld, at which point the feeling of being pricked by thorns completely disappeared.

Ning Qiuyang opened his arms as if to embrace the entire underworld.

"This is my world; the rules of the divine realm don't apply here."

Di Tian stared intently at Ning Qiuyang.

"Who are you exactly?"

Such a vast world, which is not under the jurisdiction of the divine realm, is absolutely something that a soul master who has not yet become a god could not reach.

“You don’t need to know who I am, just that I’m not lying,” Ning Qiuyang said.

"I can see that you really like the aura and energy of the underworld. If you're willing, you can have a place among the three guardian beasts of the underworld."

To be honest, Di Tian wavered a little.

Being able to avoid the troubles of heavenly tribulations and break the restriction that soul beasts cannot become gods, and continue to improve their strength, is very tempting even for Di Tian.

Moreover, as the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, he felt a strong affinity for the underworld's netherworld energy.

After entering the underworld, he did have the idea of ​​taking it over and turning it into a habitat for soul beasts.

But he nipped this idea in the bud as soon as it came to mind.

Someone who can control the entire underworld is not so easy to deal with. Since they dared to let him come, they must have a way to deal with him.

Di Tian's idea was correct.

Although Ning Qiuyang has not yet officially become the King of the Underworld, he can mobilize a great deal of power within the Underworld.

Let alone an Emperor Tian, ​​even if a true god came, Ning Qiuyang would use the power of the underworld to suppress him.

"I appreciate your kindness, but let other soul beasts take on the role of the Prison Guardian Beast."

Di Tian refused Ning Qiuyang's proposal with great determination.

He worried that once he became the Prison Guardian Beast, his life and death would be entirely in Ning Qiuyang's hands, and he would no longer have the right to bargain.

Moreover, he also had to protect the Silver Dragon King, and he absolutely could not abandon his duty for his own benefit.

"I will help you gather the other 100,000-year-old soul beasts from the Star Dou Great Forest. As for whether they are willing to become the guardian beasts of the underworld, that is entirely up to them."

Although Di Tian himself could not become the Prison Suppressing Divine Beast, he was still willing to help Ning Qiuyang with this favor.

In any case, this is a good choice for other soul beasts that are over 100,000 years old.

Moreover, he could use this opportunity to observe Ning Qiuyang's attitude towards soul beasts, whether he wanted to use them, drive them around, and discriminate against them like the gods in the God Realm, or whether he could treat them as trustworthy partners.

"Alright, it's good that the Beast God is willing to help. Let's go out."

The Road to the Underworld reappeared, bringing Ning Qiuyang and the Beast God back to the Star Dou Great Forest.
