Chapter 42: Reconciliation
Wang Nan's movements slowed down, but his mind was still sharp. He could feel that the might emanating from the Tyrannosaurus Rex was not a soul skill, but the pressure generated by an ancient and powerful aura in its body.
Just like when an ordinary person encounters a spirit master, or a low-level spirit master encounters a high-level spirit master, when facing an opponent who is much stronger than oneself, it is inevitable to feel the pressure from the opponent. However, the pressure Wang Nan faced came from the Golden Dragon King.
Wang Nan calmed himself down and tried to face this momentum. He knew that the owner of this aura was much stronger than himself, even stronger than the world, but the Tyrannosaurus Rex in front of him was not the Golden Dragon King, but just a soul beast that benefited from its legacy.
In Wang Nan’s spiritual sea, the ball of light seemed to sense Wang Nan’s will and suddenly shone brightly.
In an instant, golden lines on the Panlong stick in Wang Nan's right hand began to move slowly, combining together in a regular pattern, as if there really was a giant dragon clinging to it, with its head raised high, and a dragon roar resounding through the sky.
Wang Nan's right arm trembled slightly, and a huge amount of soul power rolled back. Behind his back, on his arms, and on his legs, five soul guide thrusters lit up at the same time. Wang Nan raised the Panlong Stick high and inserted one end into the mouth of the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
The mental power and soul power merged into one, and the Panlong Collapse style was performed. With golden light flashing in Wang Nan's eyes, a "bang" was heard, as if something was broken by Wang Nan.
Wang Nan fell back to the ground again, and the pressure on his body was swept away. The power from the Golden Dragon King remained undiminished, but Wang Nan was no longer affected.
A milky white light lit up on his chest, and the soul power in the charged soul guide continuously flowed into Wang Nan's body. He held the Panlong Stick in both hands and his eyes fell on the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
The second round begins.
A stream of blood flowed from the mouth of the Tyrannosaurus Rex. Even though he had the blood of the Golden Dragon King, he could not avoid internal injuries from being hit by the stick.
A roar sounded, and the Tyrannosaurus Rex attacked again, continuously attacking with its head and tail, making bursts of noises as they hit the ground.
After the dragon's might wore off, the Tyrannosaurus Rex was no longer as dangerous as before. Wang Nan maneuvered around it while continuing to attack.
The battle lasted until noon. Most of Wang Nan's soul power had been consumed, and the Tyrannosaurus Rex on the other side was also exhausted. After staggering a few steps, it fell to the ground with a "bang".
Only then did Wang Nan turn off the soul guide thruster and let out a long sigh.
"Nan'er!" Wang Xingxing walked up to Wang Nan and excitedly pressed his shoulder, checking his injuries.
On the other side, Yan Huo looked at the Tyrannosaurus Rex with a trace of pity in his eyes.
"I'm fine, Dad." Wang Nan said, and was about to step forward to get the soul ring.
Suddenly, the fallen Tyrannosaurus Rex opened his eyes, his eyes full of determination.
As a dragon, how could it become a human's soul ring!
Its pride as a dragon turned its anger and unwillingness into a roar, and then the little soul power left in its body gathered together, causing its body to explode violently.
"careful!"
Before Wang Xing finished his words, a dark red figure appeared fiercely. Amidst a violent roar, three angry roars were heard at the same time, and a scarlet red light protected the three people.
The light faded, and a lion-like soul beast appeared in front of the three people. It had three identical heads, and its terrifying canine teeth emitted a red-gold luster. Under its feet was the dying Tyrannosaurus Rex, which only had half of its body left.
"Don't be nervous." Yan Huo hurriedly came to the side of the soul beast, "This is the elder in my family."
Wang Xing's eyes were uncertain, and after a moment he suddenly smiled, "Thank you for your help, senior."
"It's okay." The soul beast looked at Yan Huo and said helplessly.
Wang Nan said nothing, but he already knew who the girl in front of him was. However, in his impression, she would be able to transform into a human form in the future, so why did she look like this now?
"You should absorb the spirit ring as soon as possible while this Tyrannosaurus Rex is still alive. The elders in my family have already taken action, so I will not go with you two."
After saying that, she looked at Wang Nan deeply, bowed slightly, then sat on the back of the soul beast and headed towards the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Wang Xing kept looking at the direction where Yan Huo left, until her figure disappeared into the depths of the forest, then he slowly spoke, "This Miss Yan Huo should be a soul beast in human form."
Upon hearing this, Wang Nan turned and looked at Wang Xing.
"Why, Dad, although I am only a Soul King, I can still distinguish between soul beasts and martial soul avatars. The three-headed lion just now was a soul beast. The identity of that Miss Yan Huo is self-evident since she was able to sit on it."
"Although we don't know why they didn't attack, now is not the time to delve into it. Take the Tyrannosaurus Rex with us and retreat outside the forest first."
After all, it is a Tyrannosaurus Rex with the blood of the Golden Dragon King. After self-destructing and leaving only half of its body, you can still see its chest rising and falling slightly, and there is still a trace of breath left.
Wang Nan and Wang Xing carried this half body and headed out of the Star Forest.
……
Star Dou Forest, core area.
A tall man was standing here, with long golden hair draped behind him and a sturdy body that was more than three meters tall.
Soon, a dark red figure came here carrying "Yanhuo".
"came back?"
"Yeah." Yan Huo's voice was a little tired, "I'm going to rest first."
"Go."
Watching the figure of "Yan Huo" disappear, the Red King could not help but speak, "Di Tian, I don't understand, it was fine to help drive away the soul beasts before, but this time he actually helped that human to obtain the soul ring and hunt our kind."
"You can't figure out why I would do this?"
"I can't figure it out."
"The so-called auspicious beast is a kind of soul beast that was born in response to the times. It has one foot on the threshold of God since its birth. It will be favored by the energy of heaven and earth, and it will absorb huge amounts of energy from heaven and earth like a piece of precious treasure."
"Around it, the cultivation speed of all soul beasts will become faster, and the chance of breaking through the bottleneck will increase. Even their fate will change because of it."
"As the darling of fate, it has no bottlenecks in its cultivation process. However, because it controls the power of fate, it is destined to encounter a catastrophe."
“In the near future, the auspicious beast will be in trouble. There is no way to avoid it and no way to escape it. If it fails to survive this disaster, everything it has will be taken away by others.” When he said this, a fierce look flashed in Di Tian’s eyes.
"The human you saw is the solution to this disaster."
"For the sake of our soul beasts' great plan, let alone a Tyrannosaurus Rex, even I can sacrifice myself for it."
"You must protect the auspicious beasts in the future. I can tell you these words, but you can't tell anyone else." Di Tian said, looking up at the empty sky, "Otherwise, if you say it out loud, there will be disaster."
