Chapter 283 Di Tian's Choice?
This is an unbelievable scene.
If this were seen by someone, it would be enough to overturn the entire Soul Master world's understanding!
Just as the spirit ring was recovering, a glint flashed in Tang Chuan's eyes. He seized this fleeting opportunity and took advantage of the perfect moment when the surrounding vision was completely obscured by the dust and the auras of both sides were in chaos due to the violent collision. His first red spirit ring flashed almost imperceptibly!
"First Soul Skill, Simulation!"
His target was not himself.
Instead, it was Tang Xiao, who had just regained his footing and was filled with shock and anger, not far away!
The next second, an invisible and intangible force instantly enveloped Tang Xiao.
Tang Xiao felt a slight chill around him, as if something had brushed past him, but in his state of extreme shock and vigilance, he did not immediately notice this subtle anomaly. His attention was completely focused on sensing the powerful enemy hidden in the smoke and dust.
The next moment, Tang Chuan moved and retreated rapidly from the smoke and dust.
However, on the other side at this moment.
In the eyes of the five elders of the Haotian Sect who were about to rush up to help, the one who emerged from the smoke and dust was no longer their sect leader Tang Xiao, but a blue-haired boy they had never seen before!
"Thieves, please leave!"
"Take him down!"
The Seventh Elder roared, and he and the other four elders reacted extremely quickly, their figures like five bolts of lightning, instantly rising from the ground. Their soul rings shone, and the powerful light of their soul skills instantly locked onto the blue-haired youth, surrounding him in the middle, and the attack was about to begin!
Locked onto by the terrifying aura of five Title Douluos, the blue-haired youth—actually Tang Xiao whose appearance had been simulated—was both shocked and furious. Completely bewildered as to why the elders were attacking him, he hurriedly shouted, "Five elders! What is the meaning of this?! I am… Tang Xiao!"
His voice was still Tang Xiao's deep and resonant voice.
But when paired with the unfamiliar blue-haired boy's face, it looked incredibly eerie.
Upon hearing this, the Seventh Elder was even more enraged. He felt that this thief still dared to impersonate the sect leader and make fun of them. He laughed in anger and cursed loudly:
"Bullshit! If you're Tang Xiao, then I'm your father! Die!"
After saying that, the Seventh Elder took the lead and unleashed a fierce claw attack towards the blue-haired youth! The other four elders also launched their attacks at the same time!
Tang Xiao was both shocked and furious as he faced attacks from his own elders.
He couldn't kill him, so he could only dodge and parry awkwardly, explaining himself repeatedly. But to the elders, his explanations sounded like sophistry and humiliation!
"It's me! It really is Tang Xiao! Seventh Uncle, stop!"
"You bastard! How dare you take advantage of me!"
In just a few seconds, the scene became extremely chaotic.
The real Tang Xiao was besieged by his own people and had no way to defend himself, while the instigator was Tang Chuan.
They had already taken advantage of the chaos they created to silently conceal their presence, disappearing into the still-smoky and chaotic battlefield like a drop of water merging into the ocean.
…………
Meanwhile, deep within the Star Dou Great Forest.
What was once a peaceful and tranquil forbidden zone is now witnessing a brutal and deadly hunt.
The colossal Titan Ape, Erming, was seen running frantically through the dense forest. Each heavy step it took caused the earth to tremble and trees to fall.
On his broad, rock-like back.
The Azure Bull Python, Daming, was coiled around the broken and wounded body.
The two 100,000-year-old soul beasts looked extremely miserable at this moment.
Their magnificent bodies were stained with their own blood.
The situation in Da Ming was particularly dire. The slender snake body, which was originally over thirty meters long, had its last seven or eight meters severed off. Foul-smelling black blood dripped continuously from the broken section, and the flesh around the wound was rotting. Occasionally, wisps of smoke with a pungent odor would even emerge.
Wherever the smoke reached, the vibrant plants quickly withered and decayed.
This demonstrates the ferocity of the poison ingested into his body.
The once wise and majestic eyes of the Azure Bull Python were now dull and lifeless.
Each time it turned its head to release a ring of cyan light that slowed down its pursuers, the gleam in its eyes dimmed slightly.
Erming's situation is slightly better, but it is still not optimistic.
The most fatal wound on his chest was a huge, deep gash that exposed the bone, through which his powerfully beating heart could be vaguely seen. If the wound had been just an inch deeper, his heart would have ruptured.
Deep within the Starry Sky Forest, at the heart of the Lake of Life, lies a place of great peril.
The earth-shattering pursuit and escape outside did not seem to affect the tranquility of this place, but the faint smell of blood and despair in the air could not be completely isolated.
Emerald Swan Brigitte's exquisite face showed a hint of reluctance and anxiety. She looked at the figure beside her, as silent as an abyss, and asked softly:
"Di Tian, those two gatekeepers... they're almost at their limit. Should we... really not intervene? After all, they are the core strength of our Star Dou Great Forest. If they perish, it will be a huge gain for humanity, but an immeasurable loss for us."
Emperor Tian, the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, who sat upright in the void, slowly opened his golden eyes, which seemed to contain the birth and death of stars.
At this moment, his gaze seemed to pierce through layers of space, landing on the fierce chase in the distance. His eyes were calm and still, yet they carried a kind of indifference and composure that transcended the mundane.
"Bridget, I understand your mercy. But, I cannot save you." After a moment of silence, Di Tian's deep and majestic voice slowly rang out.
"First, these are the rules. Humans hunting 100,000-year-old soul beasts to obtain soul rings and soul bones is essentially no different from soul beasts hunting human soul masters or even their own kind to devour and evolve. Both are manifestations of the law of the jungle that has existed on this continent since ancient times."
"Although the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python are inhabitants of my Star Dou Great Forest, they are not being attacked within the core restricted area. If we actively intervene in this kind of hunting from the outside world, it would be tantamount to breaking the long-standing balance between human powerhouses and top-tier soul beasts."
"Secondly, this is a calamity. Every hundred thousand years, a soul beast must undergo a test of heaven and earth. Whether they choose to transform into human form or continue cultivating in their beast form, it is inherently accompanied by enormous risks. Today's calamity may be their destiny. Forcibly interfering may not be a blessing, and may even bring about a greater disaster, affecting the entire core area of the Star Dou."
"Third, and most importantly," Di Tian said in a deep voice, a profound light flashing in his golden eyes.
"I believe that with that kid Tang Chuan around, the chances of our lord recovering and waking up ahead of schedule are extremely high. We need to conserve every bit of strength to ensure that nothing goes wrong."
"If we were to start a full-scale war with the top human forces right now for the sake of two 100,000-year-old soul beasts, exposing our true strength and core capabilities, it would be a losing proposition."
"After all, that woman carries the aura of a Rakshasa god. My lord has sought refuge here, and I imagine those beings in the divine realm have been searching for her for a long time. It would be truly foolish to expose my lord's location for the sake of these two!"
