Chapter 561.3 - Frantically Cultivating (2/2)

However, it was under these circumstances that Huo Yuhao’s aura had suddenly vanished. Di Tian had no answer to this phenomenon.

Di Tian was extremely confident in his reverse scale. After all, it was not just any normal scale. It could essentially act as a clone. With the help of his reverse scale, he could accurately pinpoint where Huo Yuhao was, and use his mastery of spatial laws to transport portions of his energy to that location.

However, he was not only unable to sense Huo Yuhao’s presence, but also the aura of his own reverse scale. How could he not be surprised?

If he were unable to sense the existence of his own reverse scale, he would naturally be unable to transfer his powers and check on Huo Yuhao’s situation.

Something is wrong. There must be a problem somewhere. Di Tian squinted. He must not allow the power of destiny to escape from his grasp.

There must be something going on at Huo Yuhao’s side. He must have used some ability to temporarily cut off the connection between me and my reverse scale. This ability must be the reason why I can’t sense him. There must be a reason why he’s trying to cut off this connection.

I must find out what’s going on. There’s no way I can let this continue without knowing what’s happening. His last known location was Shrek City.

Worst comes to worst, I will break his arms and legs and keep him with me in the Great Star Dou Forest forever. I will then figure out a way to extend his life. Even though the power of destiny might experience some problems, that’s still better than losing it entirely.

As Di Tian took a step forward, he suddenly vanished into thin air. When he reappeared again, he was already a thousand meters in the air. His figure flickered once again as the sky tore open to reveal a gaping hole. He stepped into the hole before the hole sealed up. Once again, the powerful Beast God had disappeared.

Shrek City was already very close to the Great Star Dou Forest after its expansion.

After a minute had passed, Di Tian’s black figure reappeared in mid-air as he triggered Shrek City’s deafening alarm system.

The soul tools from Tang Sect and the Shrek Academy’s Soul Tool Hall had been developing rapidly. They now possessed aerial surveillance soul tools both on the ground and in the air. However, compared to the Sun Moon Empire, they were still lacking quite a bit in both the quantity and quality of their soul tools.

The surveillance soul tools within Shrek City were immediately able to pick up the presence of an individual in the sky. Multiple soul tools from the ground and the city walls instantly locked their weapons onto the black colored figure

Seeing how there was only one intruder, ten soul engineers from the city defense army leapt into the sky as they tried to chase the black figure down.

“Hmph!” A cold grunt echoed in the air as the entire sky appeared to tremble at that instant. The ten figures which had just started to ascend into the sky immediately felt a frightening force pressing onto them from the sky. They were actually forced back to the ground by this mysterious force. Because they were falling from a relatively high altitude, quite a few of them were injured by the fall.

“Get Huo Yuhao to come out. I have a few questions for him.” Di Tian put his hands behind his back as he floated in mid-air. He did not seem to show any care or concern for Shrek City’s defense system.

The sound of the alarm system suddenly changed from its previous piercing sound into a rapid wailing sound. This was a sign that a powerful enemy had intruded into the Academy’s compound.

A couple of figures ascended into the sky from above Shrek Academy. The one who was leading them was none other than Yan Shaozhe, the Dean of the Martial Soul Department within Shrek Academy!

Yan Shaozhe was accompanied by Xian Lin’er, Qian Duoduo, Cai Mei’er, and Zhang Lexuan.

When they saw the Beast God floating in mid-air, a worried look appeared on all their faces.

This was not an entity they could afford to offend! Previously, Elder Xuan and Elder Mu were only able to seal him for a short period of time after linking their powers. He only left after being persuaded by Huo Yuhao. If not, Shrek City could have been in serious danger back then.

“Beast God, it has been a while since we last met. How have you been doing? May I know why you have visited Shrek Academy?” Yan Shaozhe used his hands to make a splitting motion as white intense flames appeared before transforming into two gigantic wings, which tore apart the pressure that was pervading the air. Following which, he brought the group of people with him up into the air until they reached the same altitude as Di Tian.

Di Tian’s eyes widened in disbelief as he exclaimed, “Yan Shaozhe, you have improved very quickly!”

The current Dean of the Martial Soul Department’s cultivation was already close to Elder Xuan’s before he had become an Ultimate Douluo. Even though he had not officially reached Rank 98, he was on the brink of doing so.

Di Tian had not expected a Transcendent Douluo to improve his cultivation so rapidly.

Yan Shaozhe’s own martial soul was a top-tier martial soul. Coupled with the assistance of the Qiankun Fortune Pills, Yan Shaozhe was able to improve his cultivation very rapidly. In a few months’ time, he would be able to reach Rank 98. As for whether he could eventually reach Rank 99, it would depend on his luck and his ability to understand and draw insights from the universe.

Even so, his current ability had already surpassed Elder Song. He had become the number one soul master within Shrek Academy other than Elder Xuan. Even though Elder Xuan had already cultivated at Rank 98 for an extended period of time, he was ultimately an agility-type soul master. There would still be a gap between him and Yan Shaozhe when it came to the power of their martial souls.

“I am embarrassed by your lavish praises, Beast God. Compared to you, I am really nothing. There must be a reason for you to grace our Academy in such a domineering manner. Unless you are here to help us defend against our enemies?” As he spoke, Yan Shaozhe pointed outside of the city.

Di Tian was actually stumped by his proposition. He could not help but turn his head to take a look at what was happening outside the city. Even though the Sun Moon Empire’s army was more than fifty kilometers away, Di Tian was naturally able to see them clearly with the eyesight that he had. His pupils rapidly contracted as he sensed danger from among the troops. This meant that someone in the camp possessed a power which could threaten him.

“I am not here to help you. All of you will have to resolve your human problems by yourselves. I am here to look for Huo Yuhao. Let him out. I have questions for him” Di Tian answered coldly. He would not be duped that easily. In fact, he did not have a favorable impression of any human.
