After confirming on the first day that Bibi Dong's aura had completely disappeared from the surrounding space, he finally secretly let out a soft sigh of relief.
At this moment, Bibi Dong might be at the same level as him in terms of cultivation realm, but he still felt a faint sense of pressure from her. He could clearly sense the extremely rich divinity on her body, this was the goal he had pursued for hundreds of thousands of years. Unfortunately, even though he had grown to his current level, he still had no clue about it.
Although Di Tian did not want to cause trouble at this critical juncture, if he were to clash head-on with Bibi Dong, neither side could be said to hold an absolute advantage.
Bibi Dong possessed the Rakshasa divine power, but he also had the Dragon God Claw and the methods left behind by Gu Yuena. If they really fought, neither of them would be able to determine a victor in a short time. It would be just like the battle he once fought in the ocean against the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King and even the Evil Emperor. The price paid in the end would definitely not be small; recuperating for a thousand years would only be the beginning...
Di Tian's gaze looked into the distance. It had been a full several tens of thousands of years since he last experienced this kind of mood.
This mood was like confusion, and also like an indescribable sense of ending, but thinking of the hope for the future, a powerful confidence rose in Di Tian's heart. He had a premonition that everything in the future would be much, much better than now.
While Di Tian was lost in thought, the Scarlet King had already brought the auspicious beast Three-Eyed Golden Lion to the area where this forest was located.
Looking at Di Tian hovering in mid-air as if in a daze, the Scarlet King and the auspicious beast exchanged a glance, neither of them making a sound.
When Gu Yuena was asleep or absent, Di Tian was the absolute leader of the Star Dou Great Forest. He had lurked in the Star Dou Great Forest for hundreds of thousands of years and had nearly conquered all the powerful soul beasts in the forest. He was revered as the Beast God, this was not only recognition of Di Tian's strength, but also the respect of the myriad soul beast races toward Di Tian.
It was only when Di Tian came back to his senses that he noticed the two figures below.
Being stared at directly by Di Tian's gaze, the Scarlet King inexplicably felt a layer of goosebumps. Even cold sweat that supposedly did not exist appeared on his forehead...
The auspicious beast, on the other hand, had no special reaction. It lazily licked its paw before speaking:
"Uncle Di Tian, what just happened?"
Di Tian slowly descended to the ground, but he did not answer the auspicious beast's question right away. Instead, he said directly:
"Scarlet King, you shouldn't have brought the auspicious beast here..."
Di Tian's words caused the Scarlet King's body to tremble involuntarily. For a moment, he really didn't know how to respond.
It was at this moment that the auspicious beast spoke up again proactively:
"Uncle Di Tian, don't blame Uncle Scarlet King. It was I who insisted on coming here. I sensed a unique aura here..."
Di Tian's gaze shifted to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion. After a moment of silence, he seemed to reluctantly accept this explanation and then said:
"That human is only one step away from becoming a god. She has inherited the god position of the first-level god, the Rakshasa God. If I remember correctly, that ten-thousand-year soft-boned rabbit from back then died at her hands..."
Upon hearing this, the auspicious beast said curiously:
"Back then, there was indeed a soft-boned rabbit in the core area that was about to break through to the ferocious beast level and broke in, but wasn't it later used as nourishment by the Myriad Demon King..."
Hearing this, Di Tian chuckled softly and then explained:
"At that time, you were playful and the Scarlet King accompanied you almost everywhere in the depths of the entire Star Dou Great Forest. Later, due to an accident, you fell into a deep sleep beside the Lord during that period, so naturally you didn't know what happened afterward..."
"That rabbit's wife and daughter later both broke through ten thousand years, and they had quite a good relationship with the already fallen Heavenly Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape..."
The auspicious beast let out a somewhat bored "oh." It had thought it was something interesting... It did know a bit about the Heavenly Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, but as for that so-called ten-thousand-year soft-boned rabbit, it didn't even qualify to be its food...
Seeing the auspicious beast's listless appearance, Di Tian felt a bit helpless.
"The Lord and the others still need some more time before they can return to the continent. Their mission is very heavy, and the problems they will face after returning to the continent are even more severe. Auspicious beast, during this period, you should stay obediently in the core area and do not cause any more trouble..."
Hearing this, the auspicious beast was slightly stunned. Its beautiful fur trembled slightly, but seeing the seriousness in Di Tian's eyes, it felt a bit fearful. In the end, it could only nod silently.
It wanted to cry, it really wanted to cry. It had only come to join in the fun, yet its freedom had been inexplicably restricted again. Although it knew this was for its own good, its already somewhat depressed mood became even worse...
Thinking of this, the auspicious beast suddenly glared resentfully at the Scarlet King beside it, then let out a light snort and walked toward the depths of the forest.
Several black question mark ellipses appeared above the Scarlet King's head, but he quickly shook his head slightly and did not delve into it. After all, he also understood the auspicious beast's personality. Many times, the two sides could not understand each other, but there was nothing to be done. The auspicious beast's existence was too important; to them in the Star Dou Great Forest, it was the true lifeline, and not even the slightest mishap could be allowed. Under such circumstances, suffering a little grievance no longer seemed important...
...
The scene returned to the Sun Moon Continent. The moment Di Tian took out the dragon scale he had given him, Gu Yuena immediately used it to sense the situation on the Star Dou Great Forest's side.
After learning the full picture of the matter from Di Tian, Gu Yuena's expression sank slightly. She then went straight to find Shen Hanyu, who was still sitting cross-legged and recuperating nearby.
After listening to Gu Yuena's narration, Shen Hanyu raised his eyebrows slightly and then said:
"You mean, Bibi Dong has already reached the final step of the divine examination?"
Gu Yuena nodded gently and said:
"Although the distance is so far, I couldn't sense it very clearly, but I did indeed feel that rich divinity. This Rakshasa God inheritor seems to have exceeded expectations..."
Shen Hanyu chuckled lightly. He didn't seem to care much and simply said softly:
"There's no need to pay too much attention. No matter how strong the Rakshasa God is, she is only a first-level god. She cannot change the overall situation, nor can she change the established fate. Her appearance will at most make everything more exciting and interesting..."
Seeing Shen Hanyu's confident appearance, Gu Yuena was momentarily a bit dazed. She then steadied her mind and spoke again:
"Since the matters in the Evil Demon Forest have all been resolved, it is time for us to leave..."
Shen Hanyu nodded, his gaze looking far into the distance, as if thinking about something.
These past few days, through awakening the Evil Emperor's soul, they had learned many secrets of the Sun Moon Continent from him.
The situation of unrest on the Sun Moon Continent had been going on for a very long time. In the nearly three-thousand-year history of the Sun Moon Continent, large and small rebellions and wars had almost completely ravaged and reshaped the entire land. The hatred from history was still fresh, and in the past hundred years, the Sun Moon imperial family had become increasingly incompetent. Officials and nobles governing various regions had fallen into corruption and degeneracy one after another. The national fortune of the entire Sun Moon Empire had been severely affected.
Under such circumstances, soil extremely suitable for the growth of calamity and chaos had appeared.
The Evil Emperor admitted that the appearance of those evil soul masters had some direct connection with him. The length of time he had existed on the Sun Moon Continent was immeasurable. He existed in the minds of almost all people of the Sun Moon Empire—serving as both a source of fear and a symbol...
Those people harboring darkness and evil came to the Evil Demon Great Forest in pursuit of power. The Evil Emperor, for reasons unknown even to himself, used a secret realm that already existed within the Evil Demon Great Forest to create a place for cleansing these humans and soul beasts.
After being cleansed, the attributes and bloodlines of these humans and soul beasts would be polluted or strengthened. Their strength would also increase exponentially, but their minds would slowly suffer extremely severe influence. The Evil Emperor called these people Evil Envoys, meaning his envoys. These people would then continuously lure other individuals harboring hatred or sin to the Evil Demon Forest for assimilation. While they became stronger, their pain and all their resentment would become the source of the Evil Emperor's growing power through special channels.
In addition, the appearance of other evil soul masters was more natural. They were either naturally mutated and deformed products of martial souls, or failures or pitiful people whose minds had been broken by the evil of the world. In essence, they were purer than the evil soul masters created by the Evil Emperor, but their strength was also quite a bit inferior.
At the end, the Evil Emperor also revealed a terrifying fact.
Starting from some unknown time, he had long been able to feel a prying gaze, but no matter how he searched, he could never find a single trace of the other party.
In the end, the Evil Emperor came to the conclusion that the existence spying on the Evil Demon Great Forest, or the entire Sun Moon Continent, must possess extremely powerful strength, or rather, was itself a god-level existence.
During the process of being spied upon, he had inexplicably done many things that, upon later recollection, he had no memory of at all. It was as if at those times, he had been manipulated by an invisible force. At first, the Evil Emperor was extremely fearful and worried about this, but later he slowly discovered that emotions like fear and worry would instead deepen the situation. Even now, when the Evil Emperor spoke of this matter, he still carried deep vigilance.
Shen Hanyu's brows furrowed slightly. Everything the Evil Emperor described was too bizarre. The Douluo plane gathered the gazes of many gods, yet Shen Hanyu really couldn't understand which god would be bored to this extent.
If it was another god-level existence, how had he evaded the God Realm's detection and extended his hand to the Douluo plane...
Shen Hanyu vaguely felt that all of this was related to him. His own arrival was itself an anomaly. His appearance had almost rewritten the entire history that should have occurred, causing everything to undergo tremendous changes and irreversible transformations. In this process, even a single pebble falling into the boundless ocean could cause terrifying changes.
Along this path, they had witnessed too many supernatural and bizarre events on the Douluo plane. Now, Shen Hanyu almost subconsciously classified it as the butterfly effect brought about by his transmigration.
The strange altar and fallen creatures in the extreme north, the changes in the ocean, and now the Sun Moon Continent, everything seemed to share some common points, but for the moment, Shen Hanyu could not pinpoint exactly where that point was.
His tightly furrowed brows were noticed by everyone around him. For a moment, the group looked at each other, but no one dared to speak first. No one dared to disturb Shen Hanyu at this time.
After pondering for a moment, Shen Hanyu still decided to set these issues aside for now. These problems involved extremely high and complex levels; it would be more prudent to solve them after becoming a god. Moreover, Shen Hanyu did not want to spare time to deal with these issues that had very few clues right now. What he needed to do now was prepare for his final ascension to godhood and take control of the entire God Realm to complete his plans.
"Let's talk about these issues later. First, go deal with the Sun Moon imperial family's problems. After helping Xu Yuexuan ascend to the throne and take control of the army, we should return to the Douluo Continent. This time, we are really pressed for time..."
Shen Hanyu's voice was very calm, yet it also seemed to carry a trace of helplessness.
Everyone nodded one after another. They had already developed a habitual acceptance of Shen Hanyu's decisions. No matter when or where, the other party was like a leader in their hearts.
Gu Yuena looked at Shen Hanyu, whose expression was gradually becoming gentler, and for a moment her mood was somewhat complicated.
She had to admit that after spending a long time with Shen Hanyu, the unique temperament and style of conduct of him was indeed very attractive to her. Moreover, Shen Hanyu now possessed a dragon body comparable to hers. Most women admired the strong, and as the Silver Dragon King, she was no exception in this regard...
Suddenly, Gu Yuena realized something was wrong. How could she have such bizarre thoughts? Immediately, she shook her head fiercely, wanting to shake all the strange thoughts out of her mind.
Right now, everyone's attention was focused on Shen Hanyu, so no one noticed Gu Yuena's abnormality. Only Bi Ji, who had been standing beside her the whole time, saw this and sighed helplessly.
As the old married couple who had been with Di Tian for tens of thousands of years, the intelligent Bi Ji could easily see through Gu Yuena's issue. However, she didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing. Moreover, Gu Yuena was their Lord, so Bi Ji really didn't dare to say much about this matter.
Bi Ji looked at the gray, gloomy sky, her thoughts somewhat complicated for a moment.
The race had not yet been revived, yet their Lord seemed to have fallen into the trap of emotions. Thinking of those human picture books with men and women entangled with each other, eventually leading to things like throwing themselves at someone, Bi Ji felt a huge headache and secretly prayed in her heart that such a situation would never happen...
Meanwhile, Zi Ji, who was also standing beside Gu Yuena, was not so attentive. As Di Tian's other companion, she was still far behind in terms of intellect and strategy...
