To be honest, Chen Ming himself never expected to cause such a massive commotion. He rely unleashed a domain-type soul skill, but within the core zone, the soul beasts, who were usually at odds with each other, suddenly went berserk and ford teams to track him down.
In reality, soul beasts have very long lifespans. While a 10,000-year-old soul beast often possesses cultivation far beyond 10,000 years, those with cultivation exceeding 20,000 years generally live far longer than just 10,000 years.
For Chen Ming, the Angel God's ascension to godhood happened tens of thousands of years ago, and soul beasts like the Netherworld King Scorpion had long since beco legends of the continent.
However, for the soul beasts residing in the core zone of the Star Dou Forest, the extermination of the Netherworld King Scorpion across the entire continent was a real event they had personally experienced. Many of them were active participants in that effort.
When they sensed the appearance of the Netherworld King Scorpion's domain in the core zone of the Star Dou Forest, these soul beasts were nearly driven mad, howling as they prepared to annihilate the scorpion.
Even soul beasts that hadn't initially sensed the domain were inford by others, and they too spontaneously joined the extermination effort. Longti enemies and rivals? This ti, they all set aside their differences and united. Even so high-quality soul beasts brought their families into battle mode. The two 50,000-year-old Darkgold Terrorclaw Bears were rely the vanguard.
If Chen Ming had stayed a little longer, he might have witnessed an entire team of super soul beasts he'd never seen before forming a scorpion-extermination squad.
The commotion was so great that it involved not only the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python but also so 100,000-year-old soul beasts, who rarely left their territories, stepping into the fray.
Moreover, news of the event was even reported to the Land of Great Peril via ssengers left outside by Di Tian.
Di Tian was highly concerned about this and dispatched a mysterious, ti-and-space-attributed fierce beast, Myriad Demon King, to investigate the location where the Netherworld King Scorpion's domain had appeared.
After Myriad Demon King's investigation, it reported its findings back to Di Tian.
Upon learning that it was just a soul master possessing the Netherworld King Scorpion's domain and not the scorpion itself, Di Tian breathed a small sigh of relief. However, he didn't let the matter drop entirely.
The existence of a Netherworld King Scorpion soul ring indicated that a Netherworld King Scorpion was still alive in this era. To Di Tian, such beings from another world, which had caused imnse harm to the soul beast population, had to be eradicated.
Years ago, the leader of the invading Netherworld King Scorpions in the Douluo World was a true divine beast, with power rivaling that of a third-class deity with a divine position.
Had it not been for the tily ergence of an extraordinarily gifted Angel God among the humans, Di Tian would have struggled to deal with the scorpion leader. Or rather, he wouldn't have been able to handle it without drawing the attention of the Divine Realm.
To prevent the survival of any Netherworld King Scorpions, Di Tian issued orders to Myriad Demon King, the leader of all plant-type soul beasts in the Star Dou Forest, instructing him to have his subordinate plant-type soul beasts watch for any trace of the scorpions.
As for Chen Ming, the source of the chaos?
Di Tian didn't care in the slightest.
A re human, even a titled Douluo, was an existence that Di Tian could outlast with just a nap.
No matter how dazzlingly talented they were, in the end, they were nothing more than dust.
Aside from the Angel God, the Sea God, and the Rakshasa God from the past, Di Tian held an equal dislike for all the humans on the Douluo Continent in this era.
Currently, the Star Dou Forest housed a newly born Auspicious Beast and a captured Skydream Iceworm. Everything seed to be going smoothly, with no shortage of talent or resources. The Star Dou Forest was flourishing. The Auspicious Beast could double the growth speed of soul beasts and significantly increase the odds of 100,000-year soul beasts surviving tribulations.
anwhile, the Skydream Iceworm, as a supercharged battery, could nourish a group of 100,000-year soul beasts and fierce beasts. Combined with the Auspicious Beast's aura, a massive number of fierce beasts could erge within ten millennia.
Additionally, the Skydream Iceworm could even serve as a resource for the Lord's recovery. Although the recovery speed wasn't greatly improved, it was still visibly enhanced.
Although this was no longer an era where soul beasts could freely live and develop on the Douluo Continent, with the Spirit Hall acting as a spear aid directly at the heart of the Star Dou Forest, Di Tian believed the future would gradually improve.
…
If Di Tian, 10,000 or even 20,000 years later, could look back on his thoughts now, he might just slap himself in the face.
However, the internal affairs of the Star Dou Forest had nothing to do with the current Chen Ming. This was because Dugu Bo had directly taken Chen Ming and Dugu Yan to Spirit City.
Chen Ming had always assud that Dugu Bo didn't get along with the Spirit Hall. While their relationship might not be outright hostile, it wasn't exactly friendly either.
But when Dugu Bo confidently strolled into Spirit City and stayed in a high-class inn reserved for advanced soul masters under the escort of the city's soul master guards, Chen Ming couldn't help but voice his doubts.
"Grandpa, I heard that your relationship with the Spirit Hall isn't good. Why are you being so ostentatious here? And is it really okay for us to just enter Spirit City like this?"
"Heh, who told you that? That's pure hearsay." Dugu Bo laughed as he ate the al provided by the attendants and took a sip of dicinal wine he had brought from Chen Ming's ho.
"Relationships between Titled Douluo and the Spirit Hall are never bad," Dugu Bo said, but then, recalling Tang Hao's hamr killing the Spirit Hall's Pope nine years ago, he quickly corrected himself.
"I an, generally, they're not bad."
"The Spirit Hall is the sacred ground in the hearts of soul masters across the continent. The Spirit Hall is considered the ultimate destination of the soul master world. What Titled Douluo wouldn't want to be crowned in the Spirit Hall? What Titled Douluo wouldn't want to be buried in the Spirit Hall and be revered by soul masters for tens of thousands of years after their death?"
"A Titled Douluo having a bad relationship with the Spirit Hall usually just ans they have an issue with a specific individual. But if soone is at odds with the Spirit Soul Hall as a whole, they're essentially putting themselves against all the soul masters on the continent."
"I just had so disagreents in the past with one person in the Spirit Hall. But over the years, after a few skirmishes, we've beco sothing like half-friends."
At this point, Dugu Bo took another sip of dicinal wine and poured two cups from a jar beside him.
As Dugu Bo made this motion, Chen Ming imdiately sensed two powerful, unhidden presences approaching the inn where they were staying.
One of the auras was identical to the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum he had consud before, while the other felt dark and carried faint traces of death but without the slightest hint of malice.
