Douluo Dalu II: The Peerless Tang Sect

Chapter 392 Di Tian: I need evidence!

"Hmph!" Di Tian's face turned cold upon hearing Zhu Ziyang's words. He wanted to retort, but Bi Ji beside him tugged at his sleeve. He naturally understood Bi Ji's thoughts, so he said somewhat displeasedly, "Then tell me, what method do you have to resolve the conflict between our soul beast race and you humans?"

"Hehe." Zhu Ziyang chuckled and said, "Seeing is believing. Let everyone witness the result first, and then I'll explain in detail. Huan'er, you can come now!"

"Okay!" Fifth Huan'er nodded excitedly, then said to Di Tian and the others, "Uncle Di Tian, ​​Aunt Bi Ji, watch carefully!"

With a thought, Fifth Huan'er's spirit ring appeared behind him. At the same time, a small crimson-gold lion also appeared. The lion emerged from Fifth Huan'er's eighth spirit ring and rapidly grew larger in the eyes of Di Tian and the other ferocious beasts. In the end, it actually turned into a crimson-gold flame lion. Judging from its aura and appearance, it was clearly the Crimson-Gold Flame Lion King!

Di Tian, ​​Bi Ji, and the other three ferocious beasts were all stunned, because this was too unbelievable. They had just watched Fifth Huan'er absorb the Crimson Gold Flame Lion King's spirit ring, how could it have appeared from Fifth Huan'er's spirit ring in the blink of an eye, and not only did it not show any signs of weakness, but it seemed to have become even stronger!

The Crimson Gold Flame Lion King was initially overjoyed upon being summoned by Fifth Huan'er. Fifth Huan'er hadn't lied to it; it truly possessed self-awareness and retained its former strength. More importantly, it had transformed from a living being into a spirit, and the problem of its life force naturally fading away that had plagued it completely disappeared. It was now a spirit, and spirits have no lifespan limit!

It was overjoyed, but then it saw the five ferocious beasts, including Di Tian and Bi Ji, standing before it. Instantly, its limbs went weak, and a deep-seated fear and respect made it kneel down, crying out, "Greetings, Beast God! Lady Bi Ji!"

"I remember you. You're the patriarch of the Flame Lion clan, aren't you?" Di Tian didn't speak; it was the highly approachable Bi Ji who spoke. Her smile instantly lessened the Crimson Gold Flame Lion King's fear to a minimum. "How did you become like this?"

Neither Zhu Ziyang nor Wu Huan'er stopped Bi Ji from asking her question. Some things, discovered by living beings themselves, are more convincing than simple written explanations.

"Lady Brigitte, I am a spirit now!" the Crimson Gold Flame Lion King replied excitedly.

"A soul?" Bi Ji looked puzzled. Di Tian also looked at it thoughtfully, and then looked at Zhu Ziyang next to Fifth Huan'er, only to find that Zhu Ziyang looked confident of victory.

"Don't move!" Di Tian decided to check it himself. His palm landed directly on the head of the Crimson Gold Flame Lion King, and the Crimson Gold Flame Lion King remained motionless like a kitten, letting Di Tian move it around on its body.

Soon, Di Tian stopped. He had gained a preliminary understanding of the soul spirit mentioned by the Crimson Gold Flame Lion King, but his questions had also increased.

"Human, we can have a serious talk now!" Di Tian said, looking at Zhu Ziyang.

"Sure!" Zhu Ziyang nodded and said, "Whatever Your Excellency Di Tian may ask, I can answer it for you."

"Very good." Di Tian was satisfied with Zhu Ziyang's attitude, and then asked, "For you human soul masters, can soul spirits completely replace soul rings?"

"Hehe, as expected of Di Tian, ​​you've grasped the most crucial issue right away." Zhu Ziyang chuckled, then decisively shook his head and said, "No."

"Then how can you claim that spirits can resolve the conflict between spirit beasts and spirit masters?" Di Tian's face darkened as he said, "All I see in spirits is the enslavement of spirit beasts by spirit masters, and spirits serving as substitutes for the strength of spirit masters!"

"Hehe, I don't deny that Soul Spirits enhance the combat power of Soul Masters," Zhu Ziyang said. "But Your Excellency Di Tian, ​​what I want to tell you is that the appearance of Soul Spirits can reduce the need for Soul Beasts among Soul Masters, which is already a very good result for your Soul Beast race."

"Hmph!" Di Tian snorted coldly and said, "Tell me in detail."

"Your Excellency Emperor Tian," Zhu Ziyang explained, "the birth of a Soul Spirit comes from a god from another world. I am also the first Soul Master to possess a Soul Spirit. After these years of research on Soul Spirits, I can tell you definitively that Soul Spirits can reduce a Soul Master's need for Soul Beasts, that's for sure."

Let's assume a Title Douluo needs nine spirit rings, which would kill nine spirit beasts. However, with the existence of spirit spirits, a human Title Douluo would only need a maximum of six spirit beasts, and these six spirit beasts wouldn't lose their lives.

"Six?" Di Tian looked puzzled and confused.

"That's right," Zhu Ziyang explained with a smile. "According to my research, a soul beast can only provide a soul master with one soul ring. However, if a soul beast transforms into a soul spirit, then that soul spirit can provide a soul master with up to three soul rings!" "In this way," he continued, "a Title Douluo only needs a maximum of six soul spirits to meet all their soul ring requirements!"

"..." Di Tian fell silent, but his eyes showed a slight ripple. Clearly, he was persuaded by Zhu Ziyang, because for the soul beast race, every soul beast is very important.

"Oh, by the way, Your Excellency Di Tian, ​​there's one more thing," Zhu Ziyang accurately caught the change in Di Tian's eyes, so he prepared to strike while the iron was hot, and said with a smile, "Souls have the opportunity to become gods!"

"What did you say?!" Di Tian's eyes widened as he stared at Zhu Ziyang in disbelief, his gaze filled with shock, doubt, and unease.

"I said, soul spirits have the opportunity to become gods!" Zhu Ziyang said calmly. "Of course, this is on the premise that the soul master becomes a god. If a soul master breaks through the shackles of heaven and earth and successfully ascends to godhood, then his soul spirit will also transform into a god. This is because the essence of a soul spirit is a soul ring, and the soul ring is one with the soul master."

"..." Di Tian calmed down after hearing Zhu Ziyang's explanation, a hint of self-mockery and resentment playing on his lips, but he quickly concealed it. He said, "I need evidence!"

"What kind of evidence do you want?" Zhu Ziyang asked.

"The two things you just mentioned—that a soul spirit can provide multiple soul rings and that a soul spirit can become a god—are very important to you, especially the latter." Di Tian said, emphasizing each word.

"Heh, that's fine!" Zhu Ziyang chuckled. With a thought, an icy chill emanated from his body, causing the surrounding plants to wither instantly. At the same time, a powerful and domineering aura emanated along with the cold, causing the five ferocious beasts in front of him to change their expressions.

"Ultimate Ice!" x4

These were the voices of Bi Ji, the Demon King, Xiong Jun, and the Red King. They were extremely shocked. This human not only possessed the ultimate light, but also the ultimate ice. This was simply too heaven-defying! Could it be that humans were so favored by the heavens?

The ferocious beasts felt it was extremely unfair, especially Xiong Jun, who had been stuck at the limit of the gold element for hundreds of thousands of years but still had not been able to possess the true ultimate gold. This human actually possessed two ultimate elements, which was too heartbreaking for Xiong Jun!

Of course, Xiong Jun understood very well why he could never possess the ultimate gold. His bloodline contained part of the Behemoth bloodline, which gave him the strength of the Behemoth, but also prevented him from reaching the ultimate of the element. In a sense, it was a case of not being able to have your cake and eat it too!

"Dragon King's bloodline!"

This was Di Tian. His eyes were wide open, and he felt dizzy. My God, what was he feeling? The aura of the Dragon King! The aura of the Ice Dragon King! He actually felt the pure aura of the Ice Dragon King in a human. How ironic!

Di Tian could not accept that his proud Dragon King bloodline appeared in a human. He wanted to kill this human and then strip the Dragon King bloodline from him. However, he could not act rashly because he was not confident of victory, especially after seeing the nine spirit rings behind this human, which made him even more certain of his idea.

Red red red red red red red gold gold!

Seven red and two gold rings, two god-level soul rings!
