"Mm?" Yang Yunhai immediately halted, turning his gaze toward the depths of the lake.
Though they did not hear the transmission, Dugu Bo and the other two sensed the spiritual fluctuations, their brows furrowing as they turned. Their pupils instantly contracted. In the dense fog ahead, a middle-aged man in green clothes and green hair emerged, his dark-green vertical pupils incomparably strange.
'Why is there an unknown human Titled Douluo in the Star Dou Forest's core region?' All three wondered inwardly.
The newcomer was completely wrapped in spiritual fluctuations, impossible to see through. But the fact he could fly in the air meant he undoubtedly had Titled Douluo strength.
"Another human Titled Douluo?" The Titan Giant Ape and Azure Bull Python also could not discern his identity.
But that did not stop the fire of rage in their hearts. The Titan Giant Ape, loudest of all, roared furiously.
"Get down here, now!"
The Myriad Demon King ignored them, flying straight to Yang Yunhai and stopping not far away. He bowed slightly with human etiquette, his tone very polite.
"How did you discover me?" Yang Yunhai asked via transmission.
"A naturally Ascended Child of Nature, upon completing awakening, triggers a tide of life energy, with its range spanning the entire planet," the Myriad Demon King explained frankly, transmitting his reply. "As a plant-type soul beast with an attached spiritual attribute, I am extremely sensitive to life energy. Following the direction of that life tide, I found that forest, and by forcibly pressing down with spiritual power, I peered into the memories of the surrounding Blue Silver Grass."
"Through piecing together those fragmented memories, I was able to witness your entire process of ascension."
'The range covered the entire planet?' Yang Yunhai stiffened, quickly asking, "May I ask, what is natural ascension?"
The Myriad Demon King explained thoroughly, then, according to what Di Tian had told him, continued: "If I am not mistaken, the God Realm should already be aware of your existence. The Goddess of Life's true form is the Ancient Life Tree. She can sense violent fluctuations of life energy from the lower realms and locate them. This has always been their main method of discovering and eliminating threats in the mortal plane."
"And you, as a naturally Ascended Child of Nature, undoubtedly possess the potential to become a God King."
"Once your ascension is complete, the life energy you feed back with your unique talent will continually transform this world, elevating it to the level of the God Realm itself."
"During this process, the world will naturally develop rejection toward the God Realm and thus free itself from their control."
"The God Realm will never allow such a thing to happen. So they will surely eliminate you before you complete your ascension. Of course, at your current level, they will not descend yet. The faster you ascend before God King, the higher the quality of life energy you feed back. That quality is also what the God Realm can harvest—both life energy and faith power."
"This is because the life energy you provide also improves the essence of life itself."
"The higher the essence of life in this world, the higher the quality of faith power it can generate. For the God Realm, this is an excellent supplement."
"Moreover, since your cultivation is still shallow, the fluctuations of life energy you emit are not strong. This means the Ancient Life Tree overseeing the lower realms cannot locate you, unless you go to a divine trial site and draw the God's attention. That is precisely why I dared to come and speak with you."
"???" Dugu Bo and the others were completely lost, only sensing faint fluctuations in the air. They could guess the two were transmitting something important, but not what.
'So the God Realm's core surveillance system doesn't even have an identity-lock function? Too many lives to monitor, CPU overloaded?' Yang Yunhai mocked inwardly. He cupped his hands, "Many thanks for the reminder!"
Then he added, "Lord Myriad Demon King, if I'm not mistaken, these words should be from Di Tian, correct?"
"!!?" The Myriad Demon King's face changed drastically, instantly on guard. He quickly transmitted, "How do you know of the Beast God's existence?"
"I not only know of Di Tian," Yang Yunhai said, glancing toward the lake depths, "I also know the Silver Dragon King is recuperating within."
The Myriad Demon King's face twisted in shock.
Yang Yunhai smiled faintly. "Rest assured, I will not reveal this to the God Realm. After all, I truly do wish to walk that path. The road is arduous—I must gather as much aid as I can."
"As natives of this world, your soul beast race is, from a certain perspective, also my future subjects—strength I cannot ignore."
"So, in time, when I grow stronger, I intend to heal the Silver Dragon King and let her assist me."
The Myriad Demon King's face finally eased. He asked, "I wonder, what are your next plans?"
"To become strong!" Yang Yunhai replied calmly. "You should understand, in my current state, I have no right to choose otherwise. For now, my immediate goal is to reach Titled Douluo, then plan for godhood. Along the way, I will also make preparations."
He explained some of his ideas directly. There was no need to hide them—after all, he knew the Silver Dragon King was here.
The more the Myriad Demon King listened, the more solemn he became. After Yang Yunhai finished, he fell silent for a time, then asked, "Child of Nature, may I know—capturing that transformed soul beast, was it for your companions' sake? Her soul ring seems ill-suited for you."
"Myriad Demon King, since you can suppress and pry into Blue Silver Grass memories with spiritual power," Yang Yunhai countered, "can you not also pry into the transformed soul beast just now?"
"I should be able to," the Myriad Demon King nodded.
"Then, please take a look yourself."
Yang Yunhai reached into his soul tool, seized Xiao Wu's leg, and yanked her out, holding her before the Myriad Demon King. His tone was cold. "This soul beast has repeatedly opposed me in the human world. Even without her soul ring, I would not spare her."
"Xiao Wu!"
Below, the Titan Giant Ape and Azure Bull Python's faces twisted in panic.
"Put Xiao Wu down now!" The Titan Giant Ape roared, stamping furiously.
But the height was too great—they couldn't reach her.
"Azure Cataclysmic Thunder!" The Azure Bull Python raised its head, twin horns crackling with gathered lightning.
The Myriad Demon King's eyes hardened, a green light flashing from his pupils.
"Tree Eye Paralysis!"
Two emerald beams shot forth, striking the Azure Bull Python's brow. Its body went stiff and crashed heavily to the ground.
"Da Ming!" The Titan Giant Ape bellowed in fury, turning with its own roar.
In the next instant, two more emerald beams pierced out, and it too collapsed with a crash.
'No wonder he's a 500,000-year spiritual-type beast. Just a glance and they collapse—terrifying!' Yang Yunhai was secretly shocked.
'Also, being that big really isn't a good thing—you can't dodge at all.'
'A soul bone skill? This strong? Who is this guy?' Dugu Bo and the others were equally astonished.
Then they saw the Myriad Demon King turn back—not reaching for Xiao Wu, but sprouting a branch from his chest. The branch extended to Xiao Wu's brow.
A surge of green light flared. Xiao Wu's expression twisted in agony, as if trapped in a nightmare. Her body shivered uncontrollably, legs kicking weakly.
Moments later, the branch withdrew. The Myriad Demon King's eyes burned with fury. He spat coldly:
"Trash!"
