Chapter 117 Retreat, Hatred
"Damn it, all of you, die!"
Xiong Jun and Wan Yao Wang quickly approached the Gates of Hell.
Seeing this, Gu Rong quickly distanced himself, since the Gates of Hell were not far from them.
By getting close to the Gates of Hell, Xiong Jun and his group are essentially getting close to them, aren't they?
As Xiong Jun watched the fleeing Gu Rong and his companions, a fierce glint appeared in his eyes.
No one knows what will happen after being pulled into that space.
But his senses told him that it was definitely a world filled with despair.
Even now, Di Tian hasn't made a move to save them, probably because he's wary of this human's methods and doesn't dare to act.
After all, this human's sword spirit still has two spirit rings.
Based on his understanding of Di Tian, he would never easily get involved.
Since that's the case, he might as well go completely insane!
"Tear the Heavenly Claw!"
A crimson light flashed in Xiong Jun's eyes, and his expression became increasingly ferocious.
With a surge of energy gathered in its right claw, it unleashed a full-force attack directly towards Gu Xuan and the others!
"not good!"
Gu Rong should have sensed it the moment Xiong Jun made his move.
However, the Demon King was unwilling to fall into hell, and at the same time Xiong Jun made his move, he forcibly concealed Xiong Jun's attack with his mental power.
The ancient banyan tree only noticed the abnormality after the attack had fully taken shape and been unleashed.
boom!
Flames erupted around the ancient banyan tree once more, and its skeleton rapidly took shape. The moment the bone dragon was formed, it assumed a defensive stance.
With its claws crossed in front of its chest and its wings drooping down, it also formed a barrier.
Xiong Jun's claw was powerful enough to injure even Di Tian, and Gu Rong felt immense pressure from it.
The ancient banyan tree had already prepared its defenses, but even after a moment or two, the attack still hadn't come.
Whether it was a misperception or not, the ancient banyan tree seemed to hear a roar, sounding both resentful and angry.
This left Gu Rong feeling very puzzled.
"Alright, Grandpa, that's all."
The red light in Gu Xuan's eyes dissipated, and he patted Gu Rong on the shoulder and said.
???
Gu Rong, puzzled, released his martial spirit and then discovered that there was no trace of life left in the place.
It was a complete mess, as if a category 12 typhoon had swept through.
"It's nothing, let's hurry up and get out of here first."
Gu Xuan glanced discreetly in the direction of the Lake of Life, then instructed Gu Rong to lead them away from the area quickly.
Although Gu Rong was also curious about what had happened, he still followed Gu Xuan's instructions and used his eighth soul skill to teleport away from the Star Dou Great Forest.
As for Afu's spirit rings—
When he has time, he should come alone to catch them; that would be safer.
After Gu Rong and the others left, a crack quietly appeared in the space of this area.
Di Tian and Bi Ji appeared on the ruins of this forest.
Looking at the ruins before him, Di Tian's face was extremely grim.
A look of sadness flashed in Brigitte's eyes.
Ignoring Di Tian's thoughts, he flew forward, unfurling a pair of emerald green wings behind him, revealing his 600,000 years of cultivation, and instantly suppressed the still-burning forest fire.
Then she mobilized the abundant life force and scattered it across the entire ruins.
The dilapidated ruins are visibly recovering.
Even the Ming Dynasty was affected and opened its eyes.
Just as Da Ming was about to roar, he saw Di Tian and Bi Ji, whose faces were extremely ugly.
The words that were on the tip of my tongue suddenly got stuck in my throat.
"My lord, you—"
Da Ming looked at Di Tian with anticipation in his eyes. He believed that if Di Tian made a move, Gu Xuan and the others would definitely be captured.
Erming will definitely not get into trouble.
Right?!
"Do what you're supposed to do, and keep your mouth shut."
Di Tian glanced at Da Ming, his eyes filled with conflict. He was agitated and didn't give Da Ming a friendly look. He unleashed his power and sent Da Ming flying.
It wouldn't matter if Xiong Jun didn't save him, but it was he who ordered Wan Yao Wang to kill Gu Xuan.
However, when the Demon King finally encountered danger, he did not make a move because he was wary of the power of Gu Xuan's sword.
They just watched helplessly as the Demon King and the Bear Lord were sealed away, and the Titan Giant Ape and the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear were captured.
"Di Tian, this is not your fault."
Upon seeing this, Biji quickly came to Ditian's side, patted his shoulder, and gently comforted him.
She knew about Di Tian's inner turmoil at that moment.
Di Tian was once recognized as the Beast God by many soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest, and he was the guardian of the Star Dou Great Forest.
They had all seen through Gu Xuan's actions in the Star Dou Great Forest, and because they were wary of Gu Xuan's methods, Di Tian hesitated and did not take action.
This resulted in the Star Dou Great Forest losing four high-level combatants: Bear King Wan Yao Wang, Dark Gold Terror Claw Mother Bear, and Titan Giant Ape.
Given Di Tian's personality, he must be feeling very upset right now.
But what can be done? Even that idiot Red King can see it, how could Di Tian not see it?
Each of the human's sword spirit rings represents a sealing position.
Xiong Jun and Wan Yao Wang only occupied two spots, leaving two more. If Di Tian makes a move, as long as he cannot kill Gu Xuan immediately, Gu Xuan is very likely to open a gate to hell for Di Tian as well.
Even Di Tian wasn't confident he could uproot the Demon King when it had taken root in the earth.
But that small portal actually managed to do it, and it was even managing to fight against two ferocious beasts at the same time.
What a terrifying force that must be!
Can he fight back?
Moreover, that power wasn't just directed at the soul beasts themselves.
He witnessed firsthand how Xiong Jun's Heaven-Tearing Claw slowed down as it passed the Gates of Hell.
It's as if it's been fitted with a spring.
When the face is facing the gates of hell, the speed at which the Heavenly Claw tears apart is as fast as lightning.
But after crossing the gates of hell, it felt as if something was pulling me from behind.
In the end, he was dragged directly into the Gates of Hell without even touching the ancient banyan tree's defenses.
This is also why Xiong Jun roared in resentment.
He is the king of the Star Dou Great Forest, and is also responsible for all the soul beasts and the Silver Dragon King in the Star Dou Great Forest.
He cannot afford to get into trouble right now. If anything happens to him, the entire Star Dou Great Forest will descend into chaos.
"He will come back, but—"
Gu Xuan is the true Soul Master. This time he captured the Titan Giant Ape, the Mother Bear, the Demon King, and the Bear Lord, but even so, he is still at least six Soul Rings short.
He will definitely come to Star Dou Great Forest again, but how can he fight against Gu Xuan's strange soul skills? What can he use to protect Star Dou?
"Retreat to the Lake of Life. If we can't afford to offend them, we can hide in that space for a thousand years."
Even if he doesn't die by then, he'll have become a god and departed.
Biji made the choice for Di Tian.
"As for Xiong Jun and Wan Yao Wang, let's choose two of their clansmen to take to the bottom of the lake for training."
Biji truly lives up to her reputation as Ditian's wise and capable wife, understanding exactly what Ditian needs right now.
He is currently feeling very lost and needs someone to help him make some choices to ease his inner burden.
Di Tian's expression was one of intense struggle, but in the end he succumbed to his own inner turmoil.
Just like in Douyu III, even though he knew Gu Yuena was a huge trap, he still jumped in without hesitation.
With Bi Ji pulling him away from his original spot, the silent Di Tian returned to the bottom of the lake.
Not far away, Da Ming raised his head and looked in the direction where Di Tian had disappeared, his eyes flashing with a complex mix of emotions, including disappointment, anger, and resentment.
"Erming, I will avenge you!"
Since others are unreliable, he'll do it himself!
He would go through fire and water to avenge Erming!
