When he caught a clear view of Xu Sheng's features, Di Tian's dark golden pupils suddenly brightened as he exclaimed, "It really is you!"
How could he possibly forget this man!
Countless millennia ago, he had ascended to godhood and entered the Divine Realm!
Yet unexpectedly, he had descended to the Lower Realm!!
Could it be that the Divine Realm was preparing to intervene in the affairs of the Lower Realm?
Inspecting the surrounding soul beasts that gazed at him warily, Xu Sheng then smiled and said, "Hmm! Not bad, it seems that all these years have not erased me from your memory. However, Di Tian, what has happened to the soul beasts of today? Why are there so few left?"
The soul beasts within the entire forest were scarce, and at a glance, apart from those with hundreds of thousands of years of cultivation, the rest seemed rather weak!
Upon hearing this, intense resentment burst forth from Di Tian's body, and he spoke with a chilling tone, "All because of those humans! And that Huo Yuhao!! If it weren't for him founding the Spirit Pagoda, we soul beasts would never have come to this point!!"
What it hated most now was that it had failed to personally slay Huo Yuhao and had allowed him the opportunity to establish the Spirit Pagoda!
Of course, the perilous situation that the soul beasts found themselves in was also in no small part due to the development of soul mechas by humans, which were incomparable to anything from ten thousand years ago in every aspect!
Xu Sheng, upon hearing this, rested his chin on his hand and pondered, "The Spirit Pagoda again, this organization established by Huo Yuhao seems quite interesting! Especially this so-called Spirit Soul concept!"
Since he was here already, why not try acquiring a Spirit Soul afterward?
Di Tian took a deep breath, gradually calming the fury in his heart as he stared intently at Xu Sheng and said with a grave voice, "Since you have become a God, could you tell us the reason for descending to this realm? If it is to exterminate soul beasts…"
Before it could finish speaking, Xu Sheng politely interjected, "Don't overthink it! I have no interest in eliminating you soul beasts, I am just fulfilling someone's request."
At those words, Di Tian, along with all the soul beasts, breathed a sigh of relief…
But in the next moment, the tone changed abruptly, "However… where is the Silver Dragon King who slumbers here?"
He could sense the presence of the Silver Dragon King lingering in the crystalline lake not far away.
Di Tian's pupils contracted sharply; it had attempted to divert Xu Sheng's attention with its previous words!
Yet its attempt was seen straight through!
Thinking this, a grave expression spread across its face as it said, "Our lady awakened and left the soul beast forest. As for where she went specifically, we do not know!"
The other ferocious beasts also nodded, confirming that it was indeed as Di Tian had said.
A smile curled at the corner of Xu Sheng's mouth, easily discerning the truth from their words.
"Then? We shall meet again later!"
With that said, overwhelming Divine Power instantly enveloped Xu Sheng, causing him to vanish from the soul beast forest…
Watching Xu Sheng disappear, Di Tian wiped the cold sweat from its brow and muttered to itself, "Is he able to tell we're lying without even using Divine Power to probe?"
The woman beside him filled with a comforting aura furrowed her brow and asked, "Di Tian, what do we do now? If this God has come to capture our lady, then we soul beasts... will be utterly doomed!"
Upon hearing this, Di Tian helplessly shook its head, "Against a God from the Upper Realm, we have no choice but to pray!"
As for fighting a God?
It would only hasten their own demise!
…
East Sea City.
A major port and ocean transportation and resource development city, it is the second-largest city along the East Blue coast within the Sun-Moon Federation.
Appearing out of thin air, Xu Sheng immediately masked his Divine Power with Soul Power and even simulated his Martial Soul and Soul Rings!
Even his attire had undergone a rough change, but it still couldn't conceal his handsomeness!
At first glance, he seemed no different from a Soul Master living in the Lower Realm!
Xu Sheng took a moment to look around, discovering that everything was akin to a high-tech era...
There were even soul cars!
He couldn't help but marvel inwardly, "This Lower Realm, if it continues to develop for another hundred thousand years, might actually surpass the Divine Realm with its Soul Guidance Technology!"
Shaking his head to cast aside these thoughts, he quickly expanded his Soul Power, enveloping the surroundings...
A few seconds later, he had locked onto Tang Wulin's location, "Tang Wulin, huh? Found you!"
It was because he sensed the aura of the Golden Dragon King's bloodline shifting from Arrogant Pride City to East Sea City that he directly used Divine Power to transport himself here!
As Xu Sheng made his way toward Tang Wulin, one could vaguely see a look of bewilderment on the latter's face as he carefully observed his surroundings while standing nervously by a bus station!
In a soft voice, he muttered, "So this is..."
Despite his parents having informed him of all the things to be aware of, being alone in this strange city still left him somewhat at a loss!
Just then, the affable smile of Xu Sheng, who had already approached him, was revealed as he said, "You're Tang Wulin, right?"
Upon hearing his own name called out in this gentle voice, Tang Wulin immediately turned his head, directing his gaze toward Xu Sheng...
After a clear view, his eyes gleamed with amazement...
"Wow... what a handsome man!"
Suddenly, he pinched his own palm to snap out of it, his face filled with confusion as he said, "Brother, how do you know my name? Are you perhaps a teacher from East Sea Academy?"
He wasn't foolish enough to think that his talent could make a Soul Master from another city recognize him; aside from that, the only possibility would be a teacher from East Sea Academy!
Xu Sheng was initially taken aback, scratching his head as he laughed gently, "Ah... yeah, you could say that."
East Sea Academy, it seems to be not far from here. Could it be the place Tang Wulin is about to enroll in?
Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin finally let down his guard, taking a deep breath...
With a touch of respect in his voice he said, "Teacher, then please lead the way to East Sea Academy!"
Xu Sheng chuckled, "Sure, but before that, release your Martial Soul first."
After hesitating for a few seconds, Tang Wulin then released his Martial Soul, Blue Silver Grass!
And that white-colored ten-year Spirit Soul!
One could say that his talent was even less impressive than Tang San's had been! At the very least, the latter possessed Innate full soul power!
Xu Sheng couldn't help but burst into laughter...
This Bluesilver Grass Martial Soul really did run in Tang San's family!
Couldn't it have been a Bluesilver Emperor or something? Truly hoping your child would grow amidst mockery?
Upon hearing this undisguised mocking laughter, Tang Wulin's face suddenly darkened...
He knew his Martial Soul and talent were very ordinary, but the behavior of this teacher from East Sea Academy was a little too hurtful!
Most likely, in this teacher's eyes, he had already been labeled as the worst of the worst, hadn't he?
Feeling aggrieved, he spoke up, "Um... Teacher, can we set off now??"
