Douluo Continent: Long Live the Spirit Hall

The sky was completely distorted, and the canopy was constantly changing, sometimes golden, sometimes black, and sometimes flashing with seven colors.

"Di Tian, ​​I think you really need to be taught a lesson."

Yan was ready to give up, but Di Tian still pulled this stunt, which really annoyed him, so he naturally wouldn't be polite to this guy.

Di Tian possesses the Dragon God Claw, with multiple attributes and a powerful dragon bloodline, making it difficult to defeat or even kill him. Conventional methods are useless against him, but Yan has unconventional methods at his disposal.

Fate, spirit, and time and space are forces that Di Tian does not have a deep grasp of. In the original work, Huo Yuhao also successfully used these forces to win.

Although Yan wasn't particularly skilled in these areas, it was still more than enough to deal with a mere Di Tian compared to his own fire attribute.

As he and Qiu'er completed their cooperation, boundless power of destiny spread throughout the Star Dou Great Forest.

The growth of the Imperial Beast is arduous, but once her power surpasses 100,000 years of cultivation, she will be a terrifying force.

Qiu'er naturally didn't break through, but she was Yan's contracted soul spirit. Soul spirit contracts are two-way; soul masters can borrow the power of soul spirits, and soul spirits can naturally borrow the power of soul masters.

Yan is currently helping Qiu'er temporarily increase her power to the level of 100,000 years. Combined with the powerful soul skill he gained after forming a contract with Qiu'er, the two work together in harmony, which is enough to give Di Tian a hard time.

The endless light of destiny froze Di Tian, ​​and scales began to rapidly appear on the surface of his originally human-shaped body.

These black scales looked shiny, but soon the shine faded and they became dull and lifeless. Di Tian's eyes widened, his gaze filled with disbelief.

Di Tian's eyes had now turned completely seven-colored. He was using all his strength to unleash the power from the Dragon God Claw, trying to break free from Yan's restraints.

But at that moment, Yan ruthlessly swung the Fire God Sword from his hand, which slammed heavily into Di Tian's body.

"don't want……"

Di Tian was being tossed around by Yan like a sandbag. Zi Ji, Bi Ji, and countless Star Dou Soul Beasts were extremely anxious at the sight, but there was nothing they could do.

The Light of Destiny cast by Yan and Qiu'er not only immobilized Di Tian, ​​but also had a greater effect on the others. At this moment, they finally understood the true extent of Yan's power, and felt both regret and fear.

Di Tian, ​​high above, was battered and bruised by repeated attacks, eventually breaking through his defenses. His once dull black dragon scales scattered and flew everywhere, and wounds appeared all over his body.

As he looked at the fire god's sword energy erupting once again, a sense of despair welled up deep in his eyes.

Yan has too many tricks up his sleeve. Even when he used the Dragon God Claw, he couldn't control him. He had previously shown murderous intent and offended people too much. It seems that this human is planning to kill the Dragon to warn the beast.

He knew very well what kind of creatures his soul beasts were; most of them lacked intelligence and acted impulsively. If this human killed him, the soul beasts might hold a grudge for a while, but the only one who would truly hate him forever was probably Zi Ji.

Based solely on Zi Ji's words, she was no match for that human, not to mention he had a mythical beast at his disposal. The final result... was truly unacceptable.

Di Tian lowered his head and gazed at the Lake of Life, looking in the direction where he had reappeared. His eyes were filled with longing and reluctance, and even more so with an indescribable sense of unwillingness.

Dragon God, have I ultimately failed to complete the task you entrusted to me? A bitter smile appeared on Di Tian's lips. Perhaps, this could be considered a relief.

He did not regret his actions. Even if he had to do it all over again, he would not allow the bloodline of the dragon race to be enslaved by humans, especially since these two were dragon kings. If he left it unchecked, the dragon race and the entire soul beast race would likely allow that human's ambition to succeed.

But he felt he had been too impulsive and should have figured out the cards before taking action, especially regarding the matter of the soul.

If nothing unexpected happens, the Fire Dragon King and the auspicious beast are the human's soul spirits, which do seem to be good things. With the auspicious beast guarding the Star Dou Great Forest, the soul beasts might become better, but it seems he won't live to see that day.

Di Tian watched as the red light magnified in his vision, drawing ever closer until it was about to fall between his eyes, likely piercing through his head.

Thinking this, Di Tian didn't make much of a move, but instead fell into reminiscence. He had never felt so thoroughly penetrated before.

Hundreds of thousands of years of experience, fragmented into countless details, constantly echoed in Di Tian's mind, completely immersing him in the past. At this moment, it seemed that nothing else mattered; everything that had happened had already happened.

In his childhood, he was favored by the Dragon God. The Dragon God fell and transformed into two great Dragon Kings. After that, the Dragon Clan declined and died. All of this has been constantly replaying in his mind ever since.

His vitality seemed to be quietly slipping away. Di Tian simply closed his eyes, and he suddenly felt a great sense of relief and relaxation.

He had lived too long and was never happy. He was also feeling exhausted. It seemed like it would be good to end it all, so he wouldn't have to worry about anything anymore. It was just a pity that he couldn't fulfill the mission of the Dragon God.

But it's all in the past now!

And so it ends. Though it's full of regrets, it's finally over!

Chapter 473 The Silver Dragon Appears

"Di Tian, ​​do you know where you went wrong? Have you learned your lesson this time?"

Just as Di Tian was quietly embracing death, Yan's voice rushed into Di Tian's mind, turning into a chilling aura that jolted him out of his reverie.

Di Tian opened his eyes and was immediately stunned, because he felt that although his life force was flowing away, the rate of loss did not seem to be fast.

how come?

He subconsciously looked up, and a sharp pain shot through his forehead. A ripple of mirror light revealed his current situation: the massive fire god sword was poised on his forehead, but it hadn't blown his head apart; it had only left a small wound.

Di Tian subconsciously leaned back, successfully escaping Yan's Fire God Sword. Upon closer inspection, he discovered a vertical mark on his forehead, between his eyebrows, a wound running from his forehead to his nose, as if he had gained a third eye.

The wound looked quite frightening, deep enough to expose the bone, and there were even some marks on his skull. For an ordinary person, such an injury would easily lead to death even if treated, but who was he? This little injury was nothing to him.

Siluke

Di Tian looked at Yan again, his eyes full of doubt. He could sense that Yan's anger earlier was genuine, and he seemed to have even considered killing him. At his level, everyone knew that if you wanted to kill your opponent, attacking the head was the most appropriate method.

Yan had done the same thing, and he thought his head would be smashed, but for some reason Yan stopped in the end.

"why?"

Di Tian looked at Yan with suspicion, "I have attacked you repeatedly, and just now I even had the intention to kill you. You have no reason to hold back."

"If you die, who will I find to take charge of the Soul Beast Realm and promote Soul Spirits?"

Yan glanced coldly at Di Tian and said indifferently, "Bear King and Crimson King are two useless bastards who are more than capable of ruining things. They have no foresight and would never cooperate with me. The Demon King is probably more interested in ruling the entire Star Dou Great Forest. Zi Ji and Bi Ji don't have the strength to do that..."

After listening to Yan's words, Di Tian pondered for a moment, a bitter look appearing on his face. "Human, you are more calm and considerate of the bigger picture than I am. The Fire Dragon King and the auspicious beast may have made the right choice in choosing you."

"I have always believed that I am right, and I also believe that the soul spirit will be the common future of humans and soul beasts. Anyone who tries to stop this goal, no matter how powerful, will fail."

Yan's calm response deepened the bitterness in Di Tian's eyes. He suddenly realized that the feeling of relief he had felt earlier was truly wonderful. But without relief, it meant his responsibilities were not yet over.

"Human, tell me, what exactly is this so-called soul you speak of, and what is your plan..."

With a wave of his hand, Di Tian gathered the many ascending soul beasts to his side, then used his soul power to slowly lower them back to the side of the Lake of Life.

A group of ferocious beasts on the ground quickly gathered around Di Tian, ​​probably Xiong Jun and Wan Yao Wang, and they didn't understand what had happened in the air earlier.

Seeing Di Tian fighting the human, he seemed to have suffered some losses, but his aura remained as deep and unfathomable as ever. Xiong Jun, who had some thoughts in mind, immediately lowered his head when he saw Di Tian's gaze sweeping around, afraid that Di Tian would discover something.

Di Tian waved to them and walked to the Lake of Life. After exchanging glances, the ferocious beasts quietly followed him.

Yan's figure also landed. Since Di Tian was willing to talk, everything was negotiable. He came to Xingdou this time to promote the Soul Spirit System, not to fight or even kill.

He could vent his anger by killing Di Tian, ​​but most of the many soul beasts in front of him would hate him. Even if this resentment was only temporary, it would still affect his plans.

A small act of impatience can ruin a great plan; he shouldn't act rashly out of anger. Besides, he had already tried, and it was highly unlikely that the Star Dou Great Forest could kill Di Tian.

"My place is rather simple, please forgive me for the lack of hospitality. Let's sit down and talk."

Di Tian casually picked up a large tree and used it as a seat. He then gestured for Yan to sit opposite him, and after looking at the other ferocious beasts, he said indifferently, "You guys sit down too, let's discuss this together."

Zi Ji pulled Bi Ji to sit down first. Xiong Jun, Wan Yao Wang, and Chi Wang looked at him for a while, then silently followed and sat down.

“Di Tian, ​​the conflict between soul beasts and soul masters can only be resolved with greater benefits... Jia Lin and Qiu Er, you should have already witnessed their power, they are my soul spirits.”

Yan arrived at the Lake of Life, took a deep look at the clear lake water not far away, and then pointed at Jialin and Qiu'er, beginning to lecture the group of soul beasts.

Di Tian listened to his words with an unchanged expression, Zi Ji seemed to be deep in thought, and the Emerald Swan Bi Ji's eyes gradually became focused.

The expressions of the Demon King, the Crimson King, and the Bear King differed. The Demon King's eyes flickered, the Crimson King occasionally frowned, while the Bear King seemed unconcerned. Had he not been no match for Yan, he might have launched another attack.

At this moment, Jialin transformed into a little fire dragon, flying around Yan like a little bird, occasionally perching on his shoulder to playfully express her affection.

Qiu'er stood beside Yan, maintaining her original form, her eyes gleaming with golden light, and her entire body constantly radiating the aura of auspicious beast.

Biji turned her gaze to Yan. At such close range, her beautiful emerald eyes were truly captivating. "Young Master Yan, according to what you're saying, soul spirits are indeed a good thing for our soul beast clan."

Your proactive contact, which involved so much trouble and perfected the entire soul system, shows that we were too impulsive and offended you before.

"You don't need to flatter me. In fact, protecting soul beasts is protecting soul masters. Soul rings that soul masters need come from soul beasts, and that's something that can't be changed."

Yan's face showed little emotion, and he calmly said, "If we keep hunting soul beasts, either the soul beasts will be wiped out by humans, or humans will be counterattacked and wiped out by the soul beasts. Sooner or later, it will lead to a great disaster. And if we really wipe out the soul beasts, human soul masters will be completely finished as well."

So this is a deadlock, a deadlock that must be resolved. Since I can't solve the root problem, I can only try to change the way I acquire spirit rings.

I can tell you frankly that the Soul Spirit system can help Soul Beasts grow and become stronger quickly, but humans will only gain more.

Just like Jialin and Qiu'er, they are closer to me, their master, which was something Di Tian couldn't accept before. But in this era, humans are respected, and I am not the strongest in the Spirit Hall, so you don't have many choices.

I spared Di Tian's life so that you would cooperate in promoting the Soul Spirit System. If you fail to achieve this goal, I am not afraid to unleash a massacre.

Yan's words contained a hidden threat, and Bi Ji's expression turned sour. Chi Wang and Xiong Jun were about to lose their temper, but they were stopped by a glare from Di Tian.

Di Tian was well aware of the current situation. After hearing Yan introduce the Soul Spirit System, he had to admit that this was the most suitable method to save Soul Beasts, even if it would make a large number of Soul Beasts get closer to humans, but the Soul Beasts could also grow stronger.

Moreover, he had other ideas in mind. He was entrusted with the mission of the Dragon God and could only wait. But the promotion of the Soul Spirit made him see some other possibilities.

Just as Yan was getting thirsty, a cup made of three leaves was handed to him, Jialin, and Qiu'er. Inside the leaf cup was a pool of azure-green water of life, radiating a clear, gentle light.

"Thank you."

Yan looked at Zi Ji who handed him water, took it, thanked her, and slowly drank it. The rich life force filled his body, making him feel very comfortable.

After Yan finished explaining the matter of the soul spirit, the group of ferocious beasts looked at each other and seemed to be exchanging ideas privately.

The first to speak among these people was not Xiong Jun or Di Tian, ​​but Wan Yao Wang, "Well, Saint Yan, I have some questions."

"What's the success rate of this soul contract? Will there be any hidden injuries if it fails? Can humans force us to sign soul contracts? Also, can soul beasts break soul contracts...?"

"King of Ten Thousand Demons, I have considered your concerns, so the current Soul Contract has been upgraded and improved several times."

Yan glanced at the Demon King and was surprised that he was a smart man. "The success rate of the soul spirit depends on whether the soul beast and the human are sincere. If they are not sincere, they cannot complete the contract at all. So many of your worries are not valid."

Furthermore, the rules regarding contract termination are quite harsh. If either party terminates the contract, their spiritual sea will be damaged, and re-contracting will be greatly affected. The spiritual sea of ​​a human or a soul beast is limited, and after three times, even if the spiritual sea is damaged, it will inevitably suffer a backlash..."

At this moment, Bi Ji interjected, "I think we can give this a try. Many soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest are also prone to injury or even death."

Although my Emerald Swan clan has tried its best to save them, it is impossible to save all of them. The soul contract involves the exchange of the two parties' essence, which is equivalent to a complete transformation and rebirth. I believe many of my clan members are willing to try it.

Yan frowned slightly upon hearing this and said in a deep voice, "Actually, in my opinion, the best souls to contract with should not be the old, weak, sick, or disabled, but rather young soul beasts or even unborn soul beast eggs."

The earlier a spirit communicates with a human, the closer their relationship becomes, and the greater the benefits they receive, as well as their growth rate and potential. I know many spirit beasts give birth to multiple offspring at once, but ultimately only one may survive…”

"Yan Shengzi's idea is good, but these things should always be done slowly."

Di Tian finally spoke, "Although what you say is very good, without actual examples, it is difficult for us to believe our clansmen. In fact, we have not seen it with our own eyes, so why should we believe what you say?"

So initially, we'll choose some of our clansmen who are seriously injured to cooperate with you in trying to form a soul contract. This will be better for everyone. What do you think?

"Sure!"

After thinking for a moment, Yan nodded, his gaze sweeping over Di Tian and landing on the depths of the Lake of Life. He said calmly, "I have already arranged for the strongest human soul masters to go to the Star Dou Great Forest. You can also start arranging the first batch of test subjects now."
