Chapter 10 The Conversation Between the Snow Empress and Emperor Tian
Outside the palace, three figures stood beneath the statue of a deity.
Looking at the Snow Empress before him, Emperor Tian hesitated for a moment, but ultimately spoke first, "Besides the little one wanting to see his kind, my lord also asked me to deliver a message to you."
Hearing the word "lord," the Snow Empress's expression instantly turned serious.
While she was wary of Emperor Tian, she wasn't afraid. But the hidden lord of the Star Dou Great Forest was one of the few beings in the world she considered difficult to defeat.
Although she didn't know the lord's true identity, judging from the commotion in the Star Dou Great Forest and the sudden changes in the world at that time, the Star Dou lord was very likely a god.
The weight of a god was immense.
"Ten thousand years ago, a god ascended to the God Realm from the void. Since then, the will of heaven and earth on this continent has become active again. Although the spiritual energy of heaven and earth on the continent is now increasingly abundant, it is definitely not good news for us soul beasts," Emperor Tian continued.
"I believe a similar situation must have occurred in the far north. While the number of soul beasts over 100,000 years old is increasing, the number of human titled Douluo is also far greater than it was 10,000 years ago. These soul beasts over 100,000 years old are either killed by human titled Douluo and become soul rings, or they die under the heavenly tribulation."
The Snow Empress nodded slightly. "That's indeed the case. About 6,000 years ago, there was an Ice Frost Dragon Butterfly in our far north that was about to break through the 200,000-year limit. At that time, its talent was among the best in our entire far north, and it was even possible that it would become the fourth Heavenly King of the far north in the future. For its heavenly tribulation, the powerful races of our far north all contributed their own rare treasures to help it fight against the heavenly tribulation. Originally, with its own strength and talent, plus our help, breaking through the 200,000-year limit was no problem at all, but in the end, it perished in that heavenly tribulation, and its body was never found."
"Ten thousand years ago, of the few remaining divine positions on the continent, two fell into the hands of one person, while the remaining two were shattered and dissipated into the world. It seems that if someone were to achieve divine status now, they would have to obtain the vast majority of the origin of this world. The will of heaven and earth would absolutely not be willing to pay that price," Di Tian said.
Looking at Di Tian with her cold eyes, Xue Di asked with some curiosity, "So, what exactly does your master want to say to me, to our Far North?"
"An alliance."
"An alliance?" Xue Di was taken aback, then her expression turned serious again. "Do you know that your Star Dou Great Forest and my Far North have almost never had any contact? Back when the Ice God was still in the God Realm, your Star Dou Great Forest was extremely wary of my Far North, let alone now?"
"That's right. According to my master, the Ice God who protected your Far North has very likely already perished."
Di Tian nodded. "Now, if it weren't for the birth of the auspicious beast, the Far North wouldn't be qualified to form an alliance with us, Star Dou."
Upon hearing this, a cold smile appeared on Xue Di's lips. "So, your purpose in forming an alliance is for Xiao Ze? You want to share his power of destiny?"
"You misunderstand,"
Di Tian shook his head. "The matter of fate is too complex. Even if we truly desired the power of fate from the auspicious beasts of your far north, you would likely fight back fiercely, which would benefit neither of us. Our lord's true purpose is actually only one thing: to create a god."
Hearing Di Tian's words, the Snow Empress was stunned. "Create a god?"
"Yes, that's it. At least that's what our lord intends." Di Tian paused, glancing sideways.
The Snow Empress and the Ice Empress beside her followed his gaze and saw the Three-Eyed Golden Lion carrying a small, snow-white beast as it trotted out of the palace entrance.
Noticing someone watching it, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion stopped, blinked, and said to Di Tian, "Uncle Di Tian, I'm going out to play with the little guy for a while." "Go ahead, but be careful not to hurt anyone." Di Tian's expression softened slightly.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion nodded, as if freed from its restraints, its limbs moving powerfully, its speed soaring.
Yun Ze gripped the fur on the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's back tightly with its small paws, muttering, "Big guy, can you slow down a bit?"
"Hehe~"
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion's silvery laughter gradually faded away.
Withdrawing his gaze, Di Tian reorganized his words and spoke again, "To be honest, my master was once a member of the God Realm, and at his peak, he was no weaker than several God-Kings of the God Realm. However, due to a hidden ailment, he could only stay in the Star Dou Great Forest to recuperate."
"So, your master intends to combine the power of the two auspicious beasts, forcibly obtaining the power of heaven and earth through them to heal its injuries, thereby restoring it to its peak, and then returning to the God Realm to obtain the opportunity for my Soul Beast lineage to become gods?" Xue Di couldn't help but ask.
However, Di Tian shook his head again. "Our master is currently under the surveillance of the gods in the God Realm. If anything goes wrong, the God Realm will act immediately. At that time, let alone repairing his hidden ailment, whether our master will even survive will be a question."
"Then what you mean by creating a god?"
"Creating a new Soul Beast God."
"Impossible. Soul Beasts are destined not to become gods. I believe your master understands this better than any Soul Beast."
"Indeed, Soul Beasts cannot become gods, but what if it were a human?" Di Tian couldn't help but sigh. "Originally, our master intended to create a divine beast from our Star Dou Great Forest as a god. After all, our little fellow already has the strength of a hundred thousand years, enough to transform into a human. In this way, the little fellow would possess the talent of a human Soul Master, breaking the rule that Soul Beasts cannot become gods. And the remaining divine beast would serve as a shared divine beast for everyone, sharing the power of destiny."
Xue Di's eyes narrowed slightly after hearing this. "So, originally, your master wanted to use our far north?"
"Hmph, our little Star Dou's ability to become a god is a good thing for all soul beasts. How can it be considered exploitation?" Di Tian snorted irritably. "Besides, isn't there already a ready-made candidate?" "
As an auspicious beast, yet born with both human and soul beast forms, isn't this the most suitable candidate in the Lord's god-making plan?"
"After all, transforming into a human is fundamentally different from your little auspicious beasts from the far north." Di Tian said, "The Lord suspects that your auspicious beast was originally just a human, but due to some reason, also possessed the bloodline of an auspicious beast."
Xue Di looked at Di Tian without speaking.
She simply shifted her gaze to the direction where the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and Yun Ze had gone.
In her heart, whether Yun Ze was human or soul beast, he was just her Xiao Ze.
Anyone who dared to touch him, she would kill!
