In the world of no return, holding the sun and the moon

Chapter 173 Breakthrough Level
In the Star Dou Great Forest, countless soul beasts looked at the deepest part in horror, as if there was some terrifying existence there.

At this moment, on the edge of the Lake of Life, all the ferocious beasts were looking at the woman who appeared before them, feeling the aura emanating from her, causing several weaker beasts to tremble.

The person who came here was none other than the Demon King who had helped Xiao Ming conquer the sea.

While helping Xiao Ming conquer the sea, the Demon Emperor also encountered some troublemakers. For these ungrateful creatures, the Demon Emperor simply killed them and then devoured them.

It was also because of them that the Demon Emperor’s cultivation was able to break through to 900,000 years so quickly and successfully surpass Emperor Tian.

Although his realm is slightly stronger than Emperor Tian, it does not mean that the Demon Emperor is stronger than Emperor Tian.

Seeing several fierce beasts in the Xingdou Great Forest gathered together, the Demon King frowned slightly, and then asked: "Do you know Xiao Ming?"

The Demon King felt a little regretful at this time. After all, he trusted the wrong person. The other party just wanted the power of faith of the entire ocean.

She didn't think that Xiao Ming knew this group of soul beasts. Humans and soul beasts are naturally in opposition, so it would be impossible for Xiao Ming to know them. However, Di Tian's answer shocked the Demon Emperor.

"You're looking for Xiao Ming?" Di Tian was a little uncertain, then asked, "What do you want to do with Xiao Ming?"

Hearing this, the Demon Emperor looked at Di Tian with some disbelief. After confirming that Di Tian really knew Xiao Ming, the Demon Emperor also began to believe Xiao Ming.

"I came to Xiao Ming to fulfill my promise. I want to sacrifice myself to him." said the Demon King.

After these words were spoken, several ferocious beasts were a little confused. What did they just hear? This 900,000-year-old soul beast wanted to sacrifice itself to Xiao Ming.

Di Tian glanced at the Demon Emperor meaningfully and asked, "Are you sure you are not his enemy?"

The Demon Emperor shook his head, then sat by the Lake of Life. Looking at the emerald green Lake of Life, the Demon Emperor was a little dazed.

Soul beasts cannot become gods, so she can only place her hope on Xiao Ming. But if she dies, what will happen to her child?

When leaving the sea, the Demon King looked at the child's reluctant expression and wondered if she could really survive in the sea if he left.

At this moment, the Demon King felt a little regretful. Maybe he should think about coming back again, as now he can't turn back.

Seeing that the Demon Emperor didn't speak, Di Tian could only keep notifying Xiao Ming, but he found that Xiao Ming didn't reply, which made Di Tian a little anxious, and then he located Xiao Ming in space.

"Xiao Ming is missing!" Di Tian cried out in surprise, attracting all the ferocious beasts around to come over.

"What happened to Xiao Ming?"

"What do you mean by missing?"

Di Tian ignored the questions about the ferocious beasts, but continued to lock on Xiao Ming's location, but still had no clues.

Di Wanqiu on the side did not hesitate and directly activated the power of destiny to check on Xiao Ming's condition. After knowing that Xiao Ming was fine, Di Wanqiu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Xiao Ming is fine." Di Wanqiu said.

Hearing this, the people around him quieted down a little, but they all looked at Di Tian.

At this moment, Di Tian finally sensed Xiao Ming's location. His face turned dark, and he directly tore a space crack and grabbed Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming was a little confused when he was suddenly caught by Di Tian. If he hadn't recognized it as Di Tian's dragon claw, Xiao Ming might have been directly served with the Ice and Fire Dragon Dance.

After passing through the space crack, Xiao Ming's eyes lit up, and a breath of life directly poured into Xiao Ming's surroundings. When he saw that all the ferocious beasts were here, Xiao Ming found something wrong.

Without waiting for Xiao Ming to speak, Di Wanqiu threw himself into Xiao Ming's arms, hugged Xiao Ming's waist tightly and refused to let go.

"Xiao Ming, I miss you so much."

As he spoke, Di Wanqiu kissed Xiao Ming on the cheek. After noticing that the ferocious beasts around him were all looking at him, Di Wanqiu became a little shy.

Di Tian, who already had a hint of anger in his heart, became even angrier. He grabbed Xiao Ming's shoulders and spoke harshly.

"You are really something, kid. Not only did you bring this great god to Xingdou, but you also kidnapped Xingdou's auspicious beast, right?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ming looked around and spotted the Demon Emperor. He was immediately delighted, and after slapping Di Tian's hand away, he walked towards the Demon Emperor.

“?” Di Tian was a little confused. Although he didn’t use his full strength just now, ordinary Titled Douluo could not break free.

Walking up to the side of the Demon Emperor, Xiao Ming immediately said, "Demon Emperor, you are here."

Hearing Xiao Ming's voice, the Demon Queen just nodded without saying anything. She was still thinking about her child.

"What's wrong with you?" Xiao Ming asked when he saw that the Demon Emperor was in a bad mood.

Glancing at Xiao Ming, the Demon King shook his head and said, "Nothing, since you are here, let's get started."

When Di Tian and others heard the Demon Emperor's words, they were shocked. They thought the Demon Emperor was just talking, but they didn't expect him to really come.

However, Xiao Ming refused and said, "Just tell me what you want to say. I won't be so easy to talk to if you have any questions next time."

For a moment, the air around him became quiet, and all eyes were focused on the Demon Emperor.

After hesitating for a while, the Demon King said, "I still have a daughter in the sea. I can't let her go if I go like this."

Xiao Ming heaved a sigh of relief after the Demon Emperor explained the reason. He was really afraid that the Demon Emperor would regret the fusion, which would cause irreparable losses.

"This is easy. Your soul is in my sea of spirit. Just let your daughter follow me." Xiao Ming said.

The Demon King was stunned, then shook his head and said, "My daughter is a soul beast, and her strength is not even 200,000 years old. It is impossible for her to transform into a human form and follow you."

After hearing the Demon Emperor's explanation, Xiao Ming frowned and then said, "How about this, you send your daughter here, and I will use some natural treasures to pile her up for a hundred thousand years?"

The Demon Emperor understood Xiao Ming's idea in an instant. It was nothing more than letting her daughter transform into a human form after 100,000 years, so that she could always be by Xiao Ming's side.

After thinking about Xiao Ming's suggestion, the Demon King felt that this was the best way.

"In that case, let me merge with you first. After the fusion, you and I will come together to find my daughter." said the Demon King.

Xiao Ming had no objection and said, "I have no problem, but can your spirit ring and spirit bone push my spirit power to level ninety-nine?"

"!" When they heard Xiao Ming say level ninety-nine, Di Tian and others looked over, and then found that Xiao Ming's soul power had reached level ninety-seven.

It hasn't been long since Xiao Ming's soul power reached level 97. Will he become a god in two days?

The soul power of level ninety-seven has surpassed most of the ferocious beasts here, and even the Bear King and the King of Ten Thousand Monsters have to take it seriously.

"You are planning to use my soul power to condense the third soul core, right?" the Demon King asked. Xiao Ming nodded. There was another chance to condense a soul core at level 99, and Xiao Ming did not intend to waste it. With the third soul core, his strength would be stronger.

Upon hearing this, Di Tian on the side walked over, put his hand on Xiao Ming's shoulder, checked it for a while, and then shook his head.

"If you want to condense the third soul core, I'm afraid you still lack some soul power accumulation." Di Tian said.

Di Tian has two soul cores and knows the difficulty of condensing soul cores. The difficulty increases exponentially with each soul core condensed, not to mention that Xiao Ming is condensing the third soul core.

The Demon King on the side also nodded and said, "If you want to condense the third soul core, you'd better break through level 98 and then absorb my soul ring and soul bone. This is safer."

Listening to the words of the two peerless masters, Xiao Ming fell into deep thought. He didn't know what Tang San's situation was like now. If he continued to wait, something might happen.

Almost a year has passed. With Tang San's strength, he has probably recovered from his injuries during this time and should continue to attack Douluo Continent.

As everyone knows, each level of soul power after level 90 requires a lot of time to accumulate. Even for Xiao Ming, it takes about two years to go from level 97 to level 98.

Xiao Ming did not have time to wait. If Tang San really reacted in time, there might be some problems.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ming shook his head and said, "No need, just prepare for the breakthrough, there is not much time left."

Hearing this, the Demon Emperor frowned slightly, while Di Tian was thinking. He knew that there were gods in the sky watching Xiao Ming, but would Xiao Ming's talent be hindered by doing this?

"Me, and me." Di Wanqiu on the side suddenly shouted, drawing everyone's attention to her.

Di Wanqiu puffed out his chest with some pride and said, "I can help Xiao Ming's soul power break through."

This sentence aroused everyone's curiosity. It could actually enhance Xiao Ming's soul power. They didn't know that Di Wanqiu had such ability.

Not only did the ferocious beasts set their sights on Di Wanqiu, even Xiao Ming was a little curious. He didn't expect that Di Wanqiu had this method, he didn't know about it.

Seeing Xiao Ming's curiosity, Di Wanqiu said shyly, "That's it. Can't Xiao Ming and I help you improve your soul power?"

After hearing this, Xiao Ming also reacted and then shook his head.

"That thing only has this effect the first time. If you continue to do it, it can only speed up the practice speed, but it will not directly improve the soul power." Xiao Ming said with some disappointment.

The Yin-Yang Sutra provided Xiao Ming with a lot of help, and Xiao Ming also knew some of the functions of the Yin-Yang Sutra.

However, this also gave Xiao Ming a hint of inspiration. Perhaps he could find someone to help him break through in this way, and thus he could successfully break through to level 98.

Those with low soul power will not do. The Yin-Yang Sutra has effects on both sides. If Xiao Ming wants to break through level 98, the soul power he needs is enormous. It would be best if the soul power is similar to his own.

Listening to Xiao Ming's explanation, Di Wanqiu felt a little disappointed. Then he looked around and immediately said, "Aren't there Aunt Biji and Aunt Ziji? Can they do it?"

As soon as Di Wanqiu finished speaking, Xiao Ming punched her on the head and gave her some bad advice.

But to Xiao Ming's surprise, Biji actually stood up and said, "I can."

"?" It was such a twist and turn. A group of ferocious beasts looked at Brigitte in confusion, not understanding what she meant.

"If the situation is really too urgent, it's okay for me to go with you." Brigitte said with a blushing face.

Di Tian told Brigitte about Xiao Ming's situation. She also knew that there were people in the God Realm watching Xiao Ming. If Xiao Ming didn't become a god quickly, all the investments would probably come to an end.

Only Brigitte knows how much the Star Dou Great Forest has invested in Xiao Ming. No matter what it is, Brigitte feels that they cannot fail this time.

The seemingly powerful Star Dou Great Forest has actually begun to decline. If we wait any longer, I'm afraid the Star Dou Great Forest will not have much time left.

The other ferocious beasts didn't know, but Brigitte knew. When she was treating other soul masters, she clearly saw the damage that the soul guides brought to many soul beasts.

Human technology is developing rapidly. Without the support of a god, I'm afraid the Star Dou Great Forest will be destroyed in no time.

Thinking of this, Brigitte stood up and looked at Xiao Ming with firm eyes.

Being looked at by Biji's firm eyes, Xiao Ming was speechless and waved his hand to refuse: "No, I was just talking just now, I don't have this idea."

But Brigitte didn't think so. She felt that Xiao Ming was making excuses and must have felt that his identity as a soul beast was not good enough.

"Is the Ice Emperor stronger than me, or is the Snow Emperor better than me? Why are you so disgusted by my identity as a soul beast?" Brigitte said gently.

Xiao Ming didn't mean that. He just felt that this matter didn't matter. If it really didn't work out, he could go to the human world to find someone.

The Yin-Yang Sutra is for both left and right sides. I believe that there are many soul masters who would trade with me in order to improve their strength. Although there is not much emotion, Xiao Ming feels that it would be good if he could make a breakthrough.

You ask what to do if the accumulated soul power is not enough. If one doesn’t work, there is a second one. If the second one doesn’t work, there is a third one. Isn’t it enough to break through?

After thinking it through, Xiao Ming said: "No, I think it's not worth it for Sister Biji to make such a sacrifice for me."

Brigitte glanced around, and after seeing Brigitte's gaze, several ferocious beasts chose to flee directly. What happened next was not something they could watch.

Seeing that only Di Tian, Di Wanqiu and the Demon Emperor were left, Brigitte no longer hesitated and directly took Xiao Ming's hand and walked towards the wooden house where Xiao Ming used to live.

Looking at the proud figure of Brigitte in front of him, Xiao Ming thought to himself that he was not a human being. When they were in the Star Dou Great Forest, Brigitte had taken special care of him, but now he was repaying her with evil and shooting her in the back.

Seeing Biji and Xiao Ming walk into the cabin, Di Wanqiu followed them, while Di Tian pulled the Demon Emperor away.

There was still only a small bed in the wooden house. When Di Wanqiu entered, the small wooden house became a little crowded.

After glancing at Di Wanqiu, Brigitte did not ask her to go out. Instead, she turned her gaze to Xiao Ming, took a deep breath, and said.

"I don't know what you're thinking, but just treat this as an accident. From now on, we can pretend we don't know each other."

As she spoke, Brigitte untied her skirt, and crystal clear wings spread out from behind her. Life force surged out, and her fair skin appeared in front of Xiao Ming.

However, Xiao Ming had no intention of admiring Brigitte's delicate body. Instead, he felt a little annoyed. Glancing at Di Wanqiu beside him, Xiao Ming pushed her out.

After doing all this, Xiao Ming looked at Biji and said, "Sister Biji, it's not too late for you to regret now."

But Brigitte just shook her head and remained standing there, with no intention of rejecting Xiao Ming.

Seeing this, Xiao Ming no longer hesitated and decided to break through without fear. He pulled Brigitte into his arms and kissed her red lips.

Although Brigitte is not young, she has no way to deal with Xiao Ming's attack. Soon she is pinned down by Xiao Ming and is constantly demanded by him.
