Chapter 245: Declaration of Destruction

Not only that, the fixed-type soul-guided shells fired by Shrek City caused the soul beast army to suffer. Many soul beasts, even high-level soul beasts, had no idea what was happening and were reduced to cannon fodder. Thousands of fixed-type soul-guided shells have caused far more casualties to soul beasts than on the front battlefield. There are indeed millions of soul beasts living in the Xingdou Great Forest, but most of them have cultivated for ten to a hundred years, and some are not even soul beasts. This time, the Xingdou Great Forest was mobilized in full force, with less than 400,000 soul beasts mobilized, of which more than 300,000 were ten-year and hundred-year soul beasts. But what about now? How many soul beasts are left? Only a few hundred thousand. In other words, more than 40% of the soul beasts have died on the battlefield, and more than 100,000 of them were killed by fixed-type soul guide shells. At that moment, the plains around Shrek City were littered with the corpses of soul beasts. Some of the soul rings had just been extinguished by the passage of time, and new soul rings were floating out from the dead soul beasts. "Roar--" A deafening roar sounded in the sky. In the air, golden clouds were surging, and a huge figure could be vaguely seen struggling in it. Although Di Tian could not participate in the battle below, he was still aware of the situation of the soul beast army with his powerful strength. He also realized that something was wrong. He began to attack the Taotie seal cast by Xuan Lao and Mu Lao desperately. As time went on, the combat effectiveness of the soul beast armies in the west and north was greatly reduced. “Boom--” Black electric lights exploded in the light cloud in the sky, and cracks began to appear. Di Tian was finally about to break out of the seal. That's right, relying on the support of the golden tree, Elder Mu and Elder Xuan were indeed able to trap him for three days, but the previous group healing and group dispelling of the golden tree consumed a lot of energy, and Di Tian felt the miserable plight of his people and ignored his own injuries. Under his desperate attack, the seal was about to collapse.

Hearing Di Tian's roar, the soul beasts finally cheered up a little. After the Emerald Swan Biji communicated with the other four fierce beasts remotely, she finally issued an order to temporarily withdraw. The surging beast tide slowly receded, but at the same time, they immediately surrounded the northwest of Shrek City. The five ferocious beasts gathered together again. They didn't even communicate with each other. Each of them had an extremely ugly expression. They were all waiting, waiting for Di Tian to break out of the seal, or waiting for their master to come. At this time, the top of the Shrek City was in chaos. Almost at the moment when the soul beast army retreated, soldiers, soul masters, and even the inner court disciples and teachers of Shrek Academy, all collapsed on the top of the city. "Look, what is that?" a student suddenly said, pointing to the sky. Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, and suddenly there was a deafening roar in the sky, and then the sky seemed to shatter. A dazzling light, like an unparalleled strong man, fell straight down from the broken place, and wherever it passed, the space seemed to be torn apart, making a terrifying whistling sound. Under the impact of this powerful force, the defense shield of Shrek City trembled violently, ripples appeared, and the light became flickering. The people on the city wall looked at this sudden change in horror, and their tired bodies that had just experienced a battle were now tense to the extreme. "Reinforcements?" Everyone's eyes lit up when they thought of Old Song's loud shout earlier. Although there were tragic scenes on the top of Shrek City, in fact, the losses of soul beasts were far greater than theirs. Although a large number of soul masters died in the battle, there were always more survivors. However, the light suddenly dissipated when approaching Shrek City, and was replaced by a huge vortex that slowly emerged. Everyone's expectations instantly turned into confusion and vigilance, and they clenched their weapons and soul guides. A man with extraordinary temperament slowly walked out of the whirlpool. When people saw him, almost everyone present recognized him. Although they were extremely tired, they couldn't help but shout in surprise at the same time. That’s right, the person who came was Ye Qian’an. It was he who forcibly broke through the turbulence of space to achieve the purpose of landing quickly. Before everyone could rejoice, they saw Ye Qian'an turn around and walk towards the soul beasts. His figure gradually walked away in the astonished gaze of everyone. Little did they know that at this moment Ye Qian'an's face was as gloomy as ink, and from the slightly pale fingertips of his hands, it could be seen that he was suppressing his inner anger. "Forty percent of the soul beasts died... Damn it... How could this happen... Tell me... Why!" Ye Qian's roar echoed on the battlefield, and his eyes swept across everyone present. "Welcome, Lord Golden Dragon King!" The five ferocious beasts, led by Brigitte, suddenly shouted in unison, their voices full of awe. "I don't want to hear these words. Tell me why!" Ye Qian'an's voice became more and more excited, his anger and heartache were revealed, his eyes were fixed on the five ferocious beasts. At this moment, all the students of Shrek Academy couldn't help but feel strange when watching this scene. Why would the beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest be so respectful to Ye Qian? The Golden Dragon King? That was... Before they could think about it, Ye Qian'an slowly turned around and glanced at the dead bodies of soul beasts on the ground. His eyes were full of self-blame. Yes, he was too selfish. As the Golden Dragon King, he couldn't even protect his own people. At this moment his heart was filled with regret. He had thought that he could rely on his own strength to deal with humans and soul beasts and find a way to coexist peacefully. But now, the soul beast corpses all over the ground were like heavy hammers, hitting his heart hard. "I once thought that as long as I tried hard, I could stop all this from happening, but I was wrong, very wrong." Ye Qian muttered to himself, his voice full of endless bitterness.

"Ah——" Ye Qian roared to the sky, his roar contained endless grief and power. His aura began to surge wildly, and the golden light burned like a flame, gradually condensing into a dragon shape, circling and roaring behind him. At this moment, a deafening roar suddenly sounded in the sky, and then a huge golden figure separated and fell from the sky towards Shrek City. The entire sky instantly turned dark, and an indescribable terrifying pressure descended from the sky. The separated golden figure turned into a human form again. It was Xuan Lao. Beside him, Mu Lao's shadow was looming, but it had become much weaker than when it first appeared. Xuan Lao's face was also pale, with obvious bloodstains around the corners of his mouth. Di Tian finally broke through the seal. His huge body, wrapped in black electric light and mist, instantly arrived above the battlefield. After seeing Ye Qian'an, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, but he still quickly flew to Ye Qian'an's side and lowered his proud head. "Lord Golden Dragon King, the soul guide used by humans this time is too brutal. We..." There was a hint of reluctance and anger in Di Tian's voice. Ye Qian'an did not respond to Di Tian. He slowly walked towards the corpses of the soul beasts. Every step seemed to weigh a thousand pounds. He stretched out his hand and gently touched the cold body of a dead soul beast, tears welling up in his eyes. “Hahaha…hahaha…it’s my fault. I was too naive. I must…must seek justice for our soul beast clan.” Ye Qian'an's laughter echoed on the battlefield, full of self-mockery and despair. He slowly stood up, a look of determination flashing in his eyes, and golden light spread out from his body. The gold was extremely thick, and although it was only light, it was as dazzling as real gold. Low roars were then heard. At first, the sound was very low, but soon, the low sound became high-pitched. It was the roar of a dragon, full of unwillingness, resentment, and endless desire for destruction. The terrifying roar of the dragon lingered on the battlefield, and an increasingly powerful golden light rose into the sky. "Bang!" With a low muffled sound, a huge claw stretched out from the golden light. When it hooked on the ground, a huge claw-shaped depression instantly appeared on the entire ground. This depression alone was hundreds of square meters in size. The giant claw was golden, with five fingers, each joint was particularly thick, and each joint had a round protrusion, which was like a golden gem inlaid there, with golden spiral patterns on it. At the front end of the giant claw, there were sharp claws like a cone. The giant claw appeared out of nowhere. "Bang!" There was another muffled sound, and another giant claw stretched out from the golden light. The two giant claws scratched deep marks on the ground, raising a cloud of dust. The next moment, a huge monster suddenly rose from the crack. Its appearance was like a mountain rising up. The strong golden color dyed the entire land golden. What a huge existence it is! Only when it really appeared did we discover that the pair of claws just now were just its smaller front claws. Its hind legs were even more terrifying, with extremely thick thighs and huge claws connected below that were almost three times the size of its front claws. The scales on its body sparkled with gorgeous brilliance. Each scale was diamond-shaped, and the center points of the two intersecting lines of the diamond were raised to form four ridges. They were thick, solid, and full of sharpness. Even a single scale was more than one square meter in size, and the number of scales on its huge body was countless. A pair of huge wings spread out behind it, and on its huge head, spikes emerged from the top of the head and the lower jaw. The spikes on the top of the head spread all the way back along the spine to the tail. Its tail was very long, but the tip suddenly became thick and covered with spikes. This is a giant dragon, a terrifying dragon that is nearly a thousand feet long. Its eyes are the color of rubies, and its pupils are full of cruelty and violence. "Roar——" The wings were fully stretched out, allowing its huge body to completely float in the air. A terrifying oppressive force lingered in the air along with the roar, and an unparalleled blood and energy suddenly burst out from its body. At the same time, illusory rays of light suddenly appeared on the bodies of the 40% soul beasts that had fallen. These rays of light seemed to be pulled by an invisible force and slowly gathered in the direction of the giant dragon. As a god, Ye Qian'an gazed at all this, knowing clearly in his heart that this was the awakening of his instinct as the Golden Dragon King. The residual souls and power of these soul beasts forged a unique dragon soul. The dragon opened its bloody mouth and took a gentle breath, and those illusory lights poured into its body like streams returning to the sea. The integration of each ray of light made the dragon's body tremble slightly, and the scales on its body flickered more and more dazzlingly, as if undergoing a transformation. With the continuous influx of light, a hotter flame burned in the dragon's eyes, and the cruel and violent light was gradually replaced by a deep and mysterious power. During the process of forging the dragon soul, Di Tian silently guarded by the side. He felt an unprecedented powerful aura being born. Ye Qian'an's figure was looming in the light of the giant dragon, and his consciousness gradually merged with the giant dragon. He could feel the fusion and change of every bit of power, and also felt the soul beasts' previous anger, unwillingness and desire for survival. These emotions and power were intertwined to become the most powerful source of power in the dragon soul. Finally, when the last ray of light merged into the dragon's body, a dragon roar that shook the world sounded, and a gorgeous golden halo surrounded the dragon's body. Its power fluctuations spread out in all directions like surging waves, and wherever it went, the space was distorted. The situation on the battlefield became clear in an instant. Ye Qian, who was originally a student of Shrek Academy, was actually a soul beast. After Ye Qian transformed into the Golden Dragon King, his huge dragon body slowly turned towards Shrek City. The people on the city wall looked at this sudden change, and fear and tension filled everyone's heart. The reinforcements they had expected turned out to be a powerful enemy. This huge contrast made them at a loss for a moment. The elders of Poseidon Pavilion finally understood why Ye Qian'an had proposed a new cultivation system, but now it was too late and the disaster had already happened. At this moment, the golden light on the giant dragon suddenly dissipated, and Ye Qian'an's figure reappeared. Unlike the previous huge golden dragon body, this time his whole body was covered with a set of golden armor. You can see that on his armor, there is a pattern of the Nine-headed Dragon King engraved. Behind him, a pair of cyan gold wings slowly spread out, and he held the supreme artifact Jiuxiao Dragon Yin in his hands. Dozens of soul rings appeared under his body one after another. The blue-gold and black-gold soul rings arranged in the innermost part suddenly shone. Walking out from them were the Snow Emperor, one of the three great kings of the Far North who had recovered to his peak period, and the Evil Emperor of the Demon Forest. At this moment, they no longer belonged to the category of soul beasts. What they shared was Ye Qian'an's divine power as high as the peak of the God King. Ye Qian'an turned his head and looked at Di Tian and the other ferocious beasts. There was both majesty and a hint of complex emotions in his eyes. He saw the six red-gold soul rings under his body slowly leaving his body and floating in front of Di Tian and the others. "Become my soul, share my cultivation, and fight for a future for the soul beast clan."

Di Tian looked at the six scarlet-gold soul rings, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by determination. He knew very well that this was an opportunity for the soul beast clan to rise. Even if becoming a soul spirit meant losing some freedom, compared with the future of soul beasts, this price seemed worth it. He took the lead and moved forward. His huge body gradually shrank and turned into a stream of light that merged into one of the soul rings. Seeing this, other ferocious beasts followed suit. King Xiong, Biji, Ziji, the Red King, and the King of Ten Thousand Demons threw themselves into the soul rings one after another. In an instant, the six soul rings shone brightly, connecting with Ye Qian'an's aura, and a more powerful power wave spread across the battlefield. Suddenly, the color configuration of Ye Qian'an's original soul rings changed. The third red-gold soul ring quickly transformed into gray-gold under the entry of Di Tian. The original color of the fourth soul ring began to gradually change to a color interwoven with red gold and dark gold. Then, the fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth red-gold blood soul rings also completely transformed into green-gold, purple-gold, cyan-gold, and orange-gold. In just a blink of an eye, the figures of Di Tian and others were completely integrated into those soul rings, as if they had truly merged with Ye Qian'an's power. “A god who has become a god at level 100 is actually a god!” On the walls of Shrek City, the knowledgeable elders of the Sea God Pavilion could not help but exclaim in surprise, their voices full of shock and disbelief. When everyone heard this, they were even more shocked. They had never imagined that Ye Qian'an, with whom they practiced and lived together, actually had such a shocking identity. Moreover, he was now standing against them and had become such a powerful and threatening enemy. At this moment, everyone on Douluo Continent heard an extremely majestic voice. "My name is Ye Qian, the Golden Dragon King, and I am announcing to you with the power of the gods. From today on, the Star Dou Great Forest will usher in a shocking and unprecedented beast tide. My mission is to protect the thousands of soul beasts in the Douluo Continent. However, the human world is despicable. Not only do they want to hunt soul beasts, they also want to exterminate my soul beast clan. I will never tolerate such evil deeds! The soul beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest will be like a surging wave, trampling every inch of land that is not a place for soul beasts to live, until all the resisting lives are completely wiped out from this Douluo world, to prove the indomitable and majestic nature of my soul beasts!" This majestic voice was like rolling thunder, instantly spreading to every corner of Douluo Continent. The human world suddenly fell into panic and chaos. The major empires, families, and sects urgently summoned strong men to discuss countermeasures. Sun and Moon Empire, Sun and Moon Palace. "Bang!" An exquisite tea bowl smashed to the ground and broke into countless pieces that flew everywhere. Xu Tianran's face turned pale because of anger. Ju Zi, wearing a light golden palace dress, sat quietly on the other side of Xu Tianran without saying a word. At this moment, she was holding the two dragon scales, one gold and one silver. She had never thought that Ye Qi'an was actually the leader of the soul beast clan. If that was the case, could the transaction between them still be carried out? This was the extinction of the entire human race! "...Golden Dragon King...Dragon God...Let me see what you are capable of." Xu Tianran looked in the direction of Shrek Academy, and saw a flash of purple light in his eyes, and the purple dragon scales covering his clothes flashed away. On the other side, Tai Tan and Niu Tian of Haotian Sect looked solemn after hearing the announcement of Golden Dragon King Ye Qian'an. Tai Tan frowned and said, "I never thought that the Golden Dragon King would be in Douluo Continent. Big brother...should we..." "No need to try, it's too late. The moment the Golden Dragon King issued the announcement, the entire Douluo Continent had already cut off contact with the God Realm. This would be a catastrophe..." Niu Tian sighed helplessly, his eyes falling on Tang Wutong lying on the stone bed. Tang Wutong closed her eyes tightly, her face was peaceful but a little pale, there seemed to be a faint fluctuation of divine power on her body, but under this fluctuation, she seemed to be suppressed by an invisible force. After Wang Dong'er experienced the Qiankun Questioning Valley, the soul belonging to Tang Wutong in her body awakened. ………(End of chapter)
