—------------------—
After leaving Tiandou City, Xuan Ming flew south and arrived at the Xingdou Great Forest in just a few days.
Unlike his previous visits, this time he did not choose to shuttle through the forest. Instead, he flew above the forest and flew directly into it at full speed according to the direction given by the Ice Dragon King.
He didn't fly like this when he came here before. First, it was because he flew too high and his soul power could not sustain it for too long. Second, flying above the forest made it very easy to be targeted by soul beasts.
Soul beasts have a very strong sense of territory. If you rush in, it is equivalent to declaring war. If you leave quickly, most ground soul beasts will not rashly attack.
But flying soul beasts are particularly concerned about their own airspace. Most of the time, they will ignore human soul masters if they walk by on the ground, but if they fly over their heads, for these flying soul beasts, it is like riding on their necks and shitting!
The more powerful the flying soul beasts are, the less they can tolerate others flying over their heads, especially human soul masters. Therefore, even Titled Douluo dare not fly around in the Star Dou Great Forest. If they fail to do so, they will be surrounded and killed by several groups of flying soul beasts.
But now, his recovery ability is enough to support him flying at a relatively high altitude for a long time. Moreover, his current strength is enough to deal with most of the ten thousand year soul beasts. Coupled with the dragon power of the Dragon King, there is no danger even if he crosses the Star Dou Great Forest.
"Um?"
The night was as dark as ink, covering the entire Star Forest tightly.
Shortly after entering the core area, Xuan Ming suddenly felt a palpitation.
Immediately afterwards, a deafening roar came from the dense forest below, and a huge figure rose into the sky like a cannonball and rushed straight towards Xuan Ming.
Xuan Ming was shocked, and a thick white light exploded. He used all his strength to dodge, but the giant claw tore through his territory without slowing down, leaving a dark space crack in the white light.
Boom!!!
The huge roar caused the surrounding air to vibrate violently. Xuan Ming went berserk almost instantly and used all his strength to resist.
But the moment he made contact, he flew backwards uncontrollably.
"Bang!"
Xuan Ming fell heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust, and his body sank deeply into the ground, forming a huge pit.
After knocking Xuan Ming away, the huge figure did not stop there, but exerted strength again and chased towards Xuan Ming like a moving mountain.
In the dim moonlight, Xuan Ming saw a huge body floating in the air, with thick dark golden hair and a pair of extremely long arms hanging on both sides of the body, exceeding the knees.
"Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear?" Xuan Ming frowned.
With just one blow, his arms were shattered in an instant, all the bones in his body were broken, and his internal organs were smashed into a mess.
Did this guy hit Mr. Bear?
"What I hate most are you dragons. How dare you transform into human form and fly over my head!" The Xiong Jun roared, his voice echoing in the night sky like thunder, shaking the surrounding trees.
Before he finished speaking, his huge body shook violently and he pounced towards Xuan Ming again, at such a fast speed that Xuan Ming had almost no time to react.
At the critical moment, an ice-blue light shone brightly on Xuan Ming's body, and a huge ice wall appeared out of thin air, stretching between him and Xiong Jun.
The Xiong Jun's paw slammed heavily on the ice wall, making a loud noise. The ice wall was instantly covered with dense cracks, but it did not break.
This angered the Bear even more. It let out an earth-shattering roar, and every strand of dark golden hair on its body stood up like burning flames. It exerted force again, trying to break through the ice wall.
"Looking for death!" The Ice Dragon King shouted coldly, and the biting cold suddenly exploded, and the ice-blue light spread around like surging waves.
The Xiong Jun was instantly frozen in the ice, his huge body wrapped in a thick layer of ice, his dark golden hair lost its former vitality, and the surrounding air was solidified by the extreme cold.
However, the Xiong Jun is the king of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear clan after all.
Its eyes were wide open with anger, the dark golden light on its body flashed wildly, and a terrifying force surged out from its body.
Tiny cracks began to appear in the ice layer that wrapped around it, spreading rapidly like a spider web.
"Roar!" The Xiong Jun let out a deafening roar, and with a sudden effort, the dark golden light on his body burst out instantly.
With a loud "crack", the ice layer wrapped around it shattered instantly, and countless ice cubes flew around like bullets.
After the Xiong Jun stabilized his body, his chest heaved violently, he gasped for breath, his eyes still burning with rage, he stared at where Xuan Ming and the Ice Dragon King were, and let out a low roar from his throat, as if giving a warning, or as if accumulating strength for the next attack.
At this moment, from the direction of the Lake of Life in the distance, a vast and ancient breath swept over like a surging tide.
Wherever this breath passed, the surrounding air seemed to be solidified, the trees stopped swaying, and the entire core area of the Star Dou Great Forest instantly fell into deathly silence, with only this breath spreading freely in the air.
"Di Tian?" Xiong Jun felt this breath, his movements paused slightly, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.
The next moment, a dark hole appeared above the battlefield, and a tall figure in black walked out of it.
Seeing the Ice Dragon King fighting with the Xiong Jun below, Di Tian was a little slow to react, "Aunt Bing? Why are you..."
"Are these the soldiers you lead?!" The Ice Dragon King snorted coldly and stared at Di Tian.
Di Tian was slightly startled, then his eyes swept over the seriously injured Xuan Ming and the still angry Xiong Jun. His brows furrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "Xiong Jun, what's going on?"
Xiong Jun looked at Di Tian, then at Xuan Ming, and finally at the phantom of the ice dragon hanging behind him.
Aunt Bing? Di Tian's elder?
Xiong Jun's gaze fell on the seriously injured Xuan Ming, as if he had already seen his own end.
It's over!
Without hesitation, the Xiong Jun suddenly turned into a dark golden light and rushed towards the depths of the forest. He was so fast that he disappeared into the night in an instant.
"Lord Bear, come back here!" Di Tian shouted angrily. His voice echoed in the night sky, but it was unable to call back Lord Bear who had already run away.
Di Tian looked at the direction where Xiong Jun fled, a hint of anger appeared on his face, but he also knew that now was not the time to chase that guy.
He flashed and instantly arrived beside Xuan Ming. Looking at the almost crippled Xuan Ming who had been severely injured by the Xiong Jun, he frowned and turned to the Ice Dragon King and said, "Auntie Bing, it's my fault for not disciplining him well. Please calm down first. I will definitely catch him back."
The Ice Dragon King snorted coldly and ignored Di Tian. He turned to look at Xuan Ming and asked worriedly, "Does it hurt?"
Xuan Ming looked at his arms, which were half broken and had not yet been fully repaired, and said, "It's okay."
When he was playing Thunder Body Training in Thunder Valley before, he wanted to die. Compared with that time, the pain now is just average.
"Aunt Bing, he... is that person?" Di Tian asked.
"What do you mean by that Person? He is my brother, you should call him uncle!" The Ice Dragon King turned around and glared at Di Tian.
Upon hearing this, Di Tian's body trembled slightly, "Aunt Bing, you..."
"Hmm?" The Ice Dragon King narrowed his eyes.
"Do you have any objections?"
Facing the threatening look of the Ice Dragon King, Di Tian fell silent.
younger brother?
The Ice Dragon King, who had the worst temper and was the most arrogant among the first generation of Dragon Kings, found a human to be his brother?
"Let's heal his wounds first." Di Tian opened the dark cave again, took Xuan Ming and the Ice Dragon King, and moved to the other side of the Lake of Life.
The lake shimmers in the moonlight, like a huge silver mirror, exuding a mysterious and tranquil atmosphere.
Di Tian brought Xuan Ming and the Ice Dragon King to a quiet place by the lake. The place was covered with green grass, and several unknown spiritual flowers emitted a faint fragrance, which blended with the vigorous vitality of the Lake of Life, making people feel relaxed and happy.
Sensing Di Tian's arrival, the numerous ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts gathered nearby became nervous.
Di Tian ignored these ten thousand year old soul beasts and looked at the figure surrounded and protected by them at the back, "Biji, help him recover."
Without waiting for Biji's response, Di Tian turned to look at the Ice Dragon King, "Aunt Bing, I'll go get that guy back."
As soon as he finished speaking, Di Tian's figure flashed and turned into a black stream of light and disappeared.
Brigitte walked out of the group of soul beasts with a light figure. She was wearing a light green long skirt and had long emerald green hair like a waterfall. Her eyes were like clear lake water, revealing gentleness and kindness.
Looking at Xuan Ming in front of her, a hint of doubt flashed in Brigitte's eyes, but she didn't ask any more questions. She walked forward, her hands emitting a soft green light, and powerful vitality poured into Xuan Ming's body, accelerating his recovery.
Ah Yin was also busy, using her own abilities to gather a large amount of plant energy from the surroundings to help Xuan Ming recover.
The surrounding ten thousand year old soul beasts watched this scene nervously. Although they had a natural hostility towards human soul masters, they dared not disobey Di Tian's orders.
