Douluo: The Golden Dragon King Returns from the Original God

Chapter 10 The calm before the storm

The Xingdou Great Forest, once the largest gathering place for soul beasts, originally had an extremely vast forest, a huge primeval forest with complex terrain, including wetlands, swamps, and so on.

There are many soul beasts inside. The closer to the core area in the center, the stronger the soul beasts are. Once upon a time, this place was always called a restricted area for humans.

But now, with the development of mechas and fighting beasts, the advantages of soul beasts over human soul masters have disappeared.

In addition, with the emergence of souls, a large number of soul beasts are needed as research subjects before further development can be carried out.

So, under such circumstances, people relied on soul guide technology to enter the Star Dou Great Forest, and wantonly destroyed and killed soul beasts, and the area of ​​the forest became smaller and smaller.

The former restricted area for humans no longer exists. Only the core area in the center of the forest remains strong, but its area is less than one percent of what it was back then.

Except for the five ferocious beasts and some hundred thousand year soul beasts with stronger bloodlines who still live here, the other soul beasts have long disappeared. Their former vibrant appearance is like a mirage.

These ferocious beasts and hundred thousand year soul beasts are extremely powerful. Even a four-character Dou Kai Master or a god-level mecha dare not provoke them easily. And the Beast God Di Tian, ​​who has cultivated for 89 years, has the strength of a demigod.

In addition, Di Tian possesses the magical skill Dragon God Claw which was once bestowed by the Dragon God himself. It is no exaggeration to say that the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, the Beast God Di Tian, ​​is the strongest person under the god level.

It was precisely because of Emperor Tian's deterrence that the core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest was preserved as the last pure land for the soul beast clan.

But in order to prevent the soul beasts here from running away, people built high walls outside the core area, enclosing all the soul beasts here, which is equivalent to keeping them in captivity.

Although this high wall cannot restrict the ferocious beasts, it can restrict other soul beasts, making them unable to move freely and forcing them to survive in this small space.

Even the Lake of Life, which was once a holy place for soul beasts and was used by the Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena to heal her wounds, is now almost dry and lifeless.

At this time, since the incident with the Southern Legion, the core area of ​​the entire Star Dou Great Forest has been very quiet, like the calm before a storm.

All the remaining soul beasts looked at the man in black, the Beast God Di Tian, ​​who was standing next to the Lake of Life.

They had naturally seen the battle in which Gu Yuexi annihilated the Southern Legion last night, and now they were all very excited and happy.

After all, ever since the emergence of Doukai and mechas, the soul beast clan has been hunted and has never been as proud as they were last night.

"Everyone should have seen what happened last night, right? The Sun-Moon Federation is very likely to come to the Star Dou Great Forest, so be on guard!" Di Tian said lightly.

"Yes!"

At this time, on the other side of the high wall, the area controlled by the Spirit Communication Tower, which is close to the Star Dou Great Forest, is within the range of human activities.

Here, in addition to the Soul Transmission Tower used to observe the movements of soul beasts in the core area, and various equipment used to study and create souls using soul beasts, there are also various commercial streets, amusement parks, restaurants, and residential areas.

The place is filled with the laughter of children, the shouts of vendors in the commercial streets and vegetable markets, and the voices of people talking, creating a scene of prosperity.

The vibrant scene inside the high walls is like two completely different worlds compared to the bleak scene in the core area outside the walls.

"Sister, where are we going? Why are we here?" After leaving Chen Ge Hu, Na'er took her sister's hand, raised her head, and asked curiously. As for Ling Yi, the lazy guy, she really didn't want to move, so she stayed in Gu Yuexi's pocket and slept soundly, looking like she didn't care about anyone.

"Of course I'm going to bring Na'er out to play, and teach her about elemental power." Gu Yuexi squatted down and touched her sister's head.

Now, she has not recovered her memory of the Silver Dragon King, so Gu Yuexi does not intend to tell her the real purpose of coming here. Let her spend a happy childhood without worries.

"Okay, but I'm a little hungry, sister. Let's go to the restaurant in front to eat something." Naer pulled her sister's hand and said coquettishly.

"Okay, let's go."

Gu Yuexi glanced at the Star Dou Great Forest. It was as peaceful as usual. It seemed that after what happened to the Southern Legion, the Sun-Moon Federation had not yet reacted, or was perhaps still discussing how to act.

Anyway, at this time, they have not taken action against the Star Dou Great Forest.

So, taking advantage of this time to play with my sister and relax seems to be a good choice.

After all, on weekdays, they cook their own meals in the Dust Song Pot and eat the delicacies of the continent of Teyvat.

As for the delicacies on the Douluo Continent, Gu Yuexi had been back for such a long time but had not really tasted them yet. Now was a good opportunity to have a taste of them.

After arriving at the restaurant, Gu Yuexi and her sister ordered a large table of dishes, all of which were the two sisters' favorite dishes.

The restaurant cooks very quickly. After the two sisters sat there waiting for a while, most of the dishes were served.

The dishes in this restaurant are very rich, with various seafood, meat, and many precious ingredients from the Star Dou Great Forest. The aroma is so fragrant that one can't help but whet one's appetite.

"Hmm, it's delicious, although not as good as the fairy jumps over the wall and the chicken stuffed with flowers made by my sister. Ahhh, it's so hot!"

Naer picked up a piece of meat and put it into her mouth, but it seemed a little hot. She was reluctant to spit out the hot meat, so she could only blow air over it continuously. She looked very cute.

"Slow down, there's nothing we're trying to snatch from you." Gu Yuexi looked at her sister and laughed.

While the two sisters were enjoying the delicious food, a lot of people came over and started talking loudly:

"Hey, have you heard? The Southern Federal Army was wiped out last night, and the entire base was razed to the ground. Today's Soul Guide TV is full of this news."

"Yes, it is said that it was done by a vicious beast. Now the strong men from Shrek, the Spirit Pagoda, the War God Temple and other major legions of the Federation are discussing countermeasures. It is estimated that they will soon enter the Star Dou Great Forest to settle accounts with the soul beast."

"Indeed, wouldn't it be better for those soul beasts to stay in the Star Dou Great Forest? Why did they have to run out and cause trouble? I think they should all be killed. It would be best if we could kill all the beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest this time!"

"Yes, I think so too. After the Federation has finished discussing it, they should be able to encircle and eliminate the ferocious beasts in the Xingdou Great Forest."
