Volume 31, Chapter 388.3: Offering! Emperor Beast (1/2)
Shadows that carried powerful auras rose into the sky one after another and rushed through the trees from the Great Star Dou Forest’s Core Region.
They were in various shapes and sizes, but every single one of them emanated unrivaled and frightening auras. Their auras became increasingly frightening the closer these shadows came to the Great Star Dou Forest’s Core Region, and every single being that dared to fly out of the Great Star Dou Forest were the strongest individuals in this place, where the most powerful soul beasts in the Continent gathered and roosted.
A man in a long black robe hovered silently in the sky above the Great Star Dou Forest’s Core Region. Every single aura around him was incredibly powerful, but not a single being dared to hover higher than him in the sky.
This man wore a grave, stern, and resolute look on his face. His flowing black hair draped behind him and stretched perfectly to his ankles without a single inch of discrepancy at all.
Two locks of golden hair were especially glaring amidst all his black hair, and they hung in front of him silently.
He was looking up at the colors of blood in the sky at this moment. He suddenly lifted his right hand and grabbed at something in the air.
A frightening aura that couldn’t be any more terrifying suddenly burst forth from his body, and his grabbing action seemed as though he was tearing the sky apart. The entire Great Star Dou Forest trembled faintly, and the sky contorted vigorously for a moment.
A black gash that was a hundred meters long appeared in the sky just like that. This black gaping hole seemed as though it had boundless suction power, and all the other powerful beings around him hurriedly retreated for fear of being sucked into this gash.
However, after a moment, nothing happened within that tremendous black gash before it closed up once more. The blood colors in the sky didn’t change, and nothing appeared from within that black gash.
At this moment, a jade-green figure soared through the sky from a distance, right towards this black-haired male.
This jade-green figure appeared before the black-haired male in the blink of an eye as if it had transcended space and time. She was a stunningly beautiful lady, and her long jade-green hair was draped behind her head. Her eyes were also jade-green, and her figure was long and slender, while her long light green dress brought out her slender figure perfectly. She had snowy white hands that resembled tender lotuses, and a pair of wings that seemed like they had been sculpted from jewels and gems extended from behind her back.
Her wings were jade-green as well, and every single feather was dazzling and eye-catching. Those brilliant and vivid green colors were filled with life energy, and all that made her seem like a moving and enchanting Goddess.
This exceptionally beautiful lady’s eyes were conspicuously worried and anxious. She stopped before the black-haired man after flying rapidly towards him and asked, “What’s wrong, Di Tian? What has happened, exactly?”
Yes, the handsome man who had black hair that extended all the way to his ankles was known as the strongest Savage Beast in the world today. He was the leader of the Douluo Continent’s Ten Great Savage Beasts, and he was the Great Star Dou Forest’s dictator. He was the king of beast kings, the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, Di Tian!
Di Tian glanced coldly at the beautiful lady who was emitting life energy as he lowered his voice and said, “Something’s happened to the Auspicious Beast.”
“What?” The beautiful lady exclaimed in surprise. “No wonder I feel so stifled. What’s happened to the Auspicious Beast?”
Di Tian lowered his voice and said, “Her life energy is flowing away at an alarming rate. I attempted to use Descent to bring her back, but it didn’t have any effect at all.”
The beautiful lady’s expression changed drastically. The Emperor Auspicious Beast, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion’s existence, was exceptionally important to the entire Great Star Dou Forest.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion’s abilities enabled normal soul beasts to grow faster, and she enabled them to become powerful beings quicker than normal. However, she was even more important to these top-tier beast kings! It was a lot safer for them to break through their bottlenecks every hundred thousand years with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion’s control over destiny. Furthermore, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion also allowed their cultivation to grow faster than usual. In the past several millennia, the Great Star Dou Forest’s overall strength had been greatly boosted because of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, and they had consolidated and maintained their position as the number-one habitat on the Douluo Continent.
How could this beautiful lady not be shocked when Di Tian mentioned that something had happened to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion? She wasn’t the only one who was astonished. The other beast kings around them who had heard Di Tian’s words saw each other’s expressions change drastically as well. Those who were relatively hot-tempered couldn’t hold themselves back, and they roared and howled angrily into the sky.
Instantly, countless beasts prostrated themselves, and a stern aura gushed forth from the Great Star Dou Forest.
The beautiful lady’s breathing was a little rushed, and her busty chest heaved up and down. “If only I had been by her side, I could have saved her life no matter what. Di Tian, can you use Descent to send me over?”
Di Tian shook his head and said, “No, we’re too far away. There’s no way I can lock onto her exact position unless she cooperates with me. However, there’s no way she can cooperate with us, because she is the one who’s causing her own life energy to flow away. If my feelings are right, I’m afraid the Auspicious Beast is…”
He stopped for a moment, and his final words were uttered soundlessly, and only the beautiful lady beside him could hear.
“What? How is that possible?” the beautiful lady exclaimed in shock once more, her enchanting jade-green eyes filled with incredulity.
