Chapter 96 Conversation with the Overlord
Chapter 96 Conversation with the Overlord
As it turns out, the transparent world can indeed completely conceal the aura of soul beasts.
Lin Yang and Xiao Wu ventured deep into the boundary between the mixed zone and the core zone of the Star Dou Great Forest, but Da Ming and Er Ming did not react at all.
If they could sense it, they would have known the moment Xiao Wu stepped into the Star Dou Great Forest.
For example, last time.
The closer you get to the core area, the stronger the spirit beasts that live there become, with all sorts of ten-thousand-year-old spirit beasts everywhere.
However, the two showed no sign of stopping.
They simultaneously activated "Transparency," and with "Eye Concealment" covering their bodies, plus Xiao Wu leading the way, they easily avoided the territories of those powerful soul beasts.
After passing through the outermost edge of the core circle, the further in you go, the fewer soul beasts there become.
Of course, the strength of the soul beasts is also more terrifying.
When they reached the deepest level, the aura of those soul beasts completely disappeared, leaving only tranquility all around.
Walking here, you are greeted not by stuffy dampness, but by clean and refreshing air, which even carries a hint of fragrance.
A lake, resembling an emerald, is nestled in the heart of this forest, its surface reflecting towering trees.
Under the sunlight, it appears tranquil and peaceful, like a "paradise on earth".
Lin Yang looked around at his surroundings and finally fixed his gaze on the Lake of Life.
Everyone thought that the most powerful soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest were Da Ming and Er Ming, but there were also ten ferocious beasts hidden at the bottom of the Lake of Life, as well as the Silver Dragon King.
They are the most powerful beings among soul beasts, and also the strongest foundation of soul beasts.
This is something that even the two Ming emperors probably don't fully understand.
If the two of them can withstand the heavenly tribulation and advance from ordinary 100,000-year-old soul beasts to the ranks of ferocious beasts, perhaps they will be qualified to enter the Ten Ferocious Beasts and learn more about the inside story.
"Who?"
Just as Lin Yang was pondering, a voice suddenly exploded in his ears like a thunderclap, making his head buzz.
A huge black shadow suddenly rose from the bottom of the lake, and towering waves crashed against both sides of the lake.
At the same time, a mountain in the distance began to shake, and eventually rose from the ground and slowly stood up.
Azure Bull Python, Titan Giant Ape!
Even though Lin Yang had seen these two overlords before through "Eye Concealment," facing them in person now still made him feel a chill run down his spine from the terrifying pressure.
Their combined strength is probably no weaker than a current level 95 Title Douluo, or even stronger.
"Since humans have actually ventured here, they might as well stay here forever."
Xiao Wu covered her ears while deliberately revealing her presence.
"Da Ming, Er Ming, it's me."
"Xiao Wu?"
The two overlords were stunned for a moment, then quickly concealed their auras, and the domineering and terrifying power they had just displayed vanished without a trace.
"You two, you don't even recognize me?"
Xiao Wu glared at the two enormous figures, not intimidated at all.
"Xiao Wu, I can't sense your presence. Could it be that you've already entered maturity?"
The enormous body of the Ming Dynasty twisted in mid-air, staring with a pair of huge eyes.
Xiao Wu gave a proud snort. "Remember the secret technique I mentioned I was practicing? I've succeeded. Now even you can't detect me."
At this moment, Erming stared intently at Lin Yang, a puff of white air escaping from his large nostrils.
Judging from Erming's current attitude, Lin Yang felt that Erming probably didn't like him and was very hostile towards him.
"Xiao Wu, is he the human you were talking about?"
"His name is Lin Yang." Xiao Wu's eyes widened, and she said fiercely, "Er Ming, don't scare him."
"Xiao Wu, humans are masters of sweet talk and eloquence; they are not to be trusted!"
Erming's voice was heavy, and contained intense hostility: "He approached you for your soul ring and soul bone."
"Since you've already learned the secret technique, as long as you kill him, no one will know your identity afterward."
"You dare!"
Xiao Wu's face turned angry as she stood in front of Lin Yang, saying, "Er Ming, I won't allow you to touch him. He's the person I love, and he always will be."
Erming's bright yellow eyes showed a hint of surprise, which quickly turned into sadness and regret, but finally he turned his gaze to Daming, "Big Brother?"
The silent Ming Dynasty turned its gaze to Lin Yang, its voice deafening, "Human, don't you have anything to say?"
No.
Lin Yang wore a faint smile, showing no fear or apprehension even when facing two powerful figures. "Xiao Wu brought me here because she trusts me; and I am here because I trust her."
"I don't need your trust. As long as Xiao Wu trusts me, and I can reciprocate that trust, that's enough."
Da Ming remained silent for a long while before speaking, "Lin Yang, you made Xiao Wu's choice. Now I'm asking you, can you promise to protect her forever?"
"promise?"
Lin Yang chuckled, raised his head and stared directly at the Azure Bull Python. "A promise is based on strength. Would you believe the promise of a three-ring Soul Master? Or do you think a three-ring Soul Master can stop a Title Douluo who covets a 100,000-year-old Soul Beast?"
The Ming Dynasty remained silent.
Lin Yang looked at Xiao Wu and said softly, "I dare not say that I will not let Xiao Wu suffer any harm, but I will do my best to help her grow up."
"We will face any problems together."
Lin Yang...
""
Xiao Wu instinctively grabbed his hand, her eyes filled with trust and affection.
The massive body of the Ming emperor slowly retreated, and a deep voice rang out, "I hope you can keep your word."
"Big brother!!!"
Erming seemed a little anxious; it hadn't expected its older brother to trust a human.
"Alright, this is Xiaowu's choice, and we can only trust her," Da Ming said in a deep voice. "If we find out that you deceived Xiaowu, even if you hide at the ends of the earth, we will find you and fight to the death!"
Having said that, the enormous figure of the Azure Bull Python sank into the Lake of Life.
Erming angrily slammed his fist on the ground, turned around and left. He was seething with anger and was looking for a punching bag to vent his frustration on.
After Da Ming and Er Ming were out of sight, Lin Yang breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Xiao Wu's "family" is not very friendly, it's not bad so far.
"I'm sorry, Lin Yang," Xiao Wu shook his hand, "Er Ming doesn't have a very good impression of humans."
Lin Yang shook his head slightly: "It's alright, you should focus on absorbing the immortal herb now."
"good!"
Xiao Wu then sat cross-legged on the ground and took out the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum from her storage ring.
Following Lin Yang's instructions, she first ate the stamen of the Tongtian chrysanthemum, and then ate the petals one by one.
The flower stamens and petals melted in her mouth, and a warm current flowed down her throat into her abdomen. Xiao Wu then began to practice her breathing techniques to neutralize the effects of the medicine.
The medicinal properties of the Qirong Tongtianju are very strong, but they are just right for Xiaowu at this moment.
