Starry sky

At this moment, those who were unable to join the battle were somewhat stunned.

"Beast, beast tide?"

When everyone came back to their senses, they finally saw the true face of the beast tide!

As far as the eye could see, it was endless!

Soul beasts, thousands and even tens of thousands of years old, were charging towards Spirit City.

Swallowing hard, the battle raged in the sky, and on the ground...

The battle was about to begin too!

"This must be the beast tide summoned by that so-called Beast God, intending to destroy us humans!"

"Such a terrifying beast tide, it must be the entire foundation of the Star Dou Great Forest!"

"Now that the Pope, elders, and worshippers are all seriously injured, facing this beast tide..."

"Smack..." The person who said this got a big slap in the face.

"Countless sages and predecessors have cut through thorns and thistles, shed their blood, and given their lives to create the world we have today. Are you going to betray their efforts and expectations?"

"Kill! Those who are not of our race are bound to have different intentions!"

"Today, we create a prosperous era for our future generations!"

At this moment, the gates of Spirit City opened, and thousands, even tens of thousands of soul masters and guards, charged out from within.

Without any communication, the three factions moved in unison towards the beast tide!

"This battle is much more meaningful than fighting against you all."

"Brother, if we survive, let's have a drink together!"

In Spirit City, almost everyone was mobilized. They also unleashed their martial spirits, grabbed their weapons, and rushed out of the city to fight.

Though the city walls of Spirit City were high, they could not withstand such a beast tide!

In less than a moment, the city would be destroyed, so they might as well fight to the death.

"Titan Giant Ape..."

The first wave of the beast tide was led by Er Ming, the Titan Giant Ape. It had a deep blood feud with the Spirit Hall, and this was the perfect time for revenge.

The soul beasts in the first row hesitated slightly when they saw so many humans, but they could not stop their charge.

Otherwise, if they were not killed by humans, they would be trampled to death by their own kind.

Charging forward gave them a chance to live; stopping meant certain death!

"Kill!"

The Titan Giant Ape spoke in human language, a sight that shocked many.

A legendary hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast leading the first wave of the beast tide?

There was no other choice; everyone had to grit their teeth and charge forward.

Originally, the beast tide was supposed to take a few more days to initiate.

Plans needed to be made, deciding where to attack first.

Would it be Heaven Dou, Star Luo, or Spirit City?

Moreover, they needed to unite with the northernmost lands and the kings of other great forests to launch the attack together!

Only then could they cause the greatest damage to humanity!

Zi Ji did not participate in this beast tide but went to the various great forests and the extreme north to signal that the attack could begin.

Meanwhile, the Sunset Forest, Death Forest, and Icebound Forest all mobilized their entire forces to launch the beast tide.

The northernmost lands, due to their vast area and scattered soul beasts, needed more time to prepare for the largest-scale beast tide.

In the end, Snow Empress agreed to Di Tian's proposal for an alliance.

She had no choice; she wasn't even sure if she could survive the next catastrophe. At this moment, annihilating all soul masters was only beneficial, not harmful, to the extreme north.

The northernmost lands' lineup could be said to be the most terrifying force next to the Star Dou Great Forest.

Snow Empress, Ice Empress, Atai, Xiao Bai...

It should be known that aside from Snow Empress, the others were all leaders of their own clans, and their clans were equally formidable!

The entire Douluo Continent erupted into full-scale war.

This time, it's not just a fight for territory—it's a war between races!

Before the message from Spirit City could reach the imperial capitals, both received news of the beast tide. Especially in Heaven Dou City—after all, Sunset Forest is right next to it!

In Spirit City, Neuvillette and Focalors exchanged a glance, unsure of what to do.

In a way, they were somewhat responsible for this.

If they hadn't helped the Silver Dragon King heal her wounds, this great war might not have happened, right?

Of course, a war without gunpowder is even more terrifying, because thousands of years later, soul beasts were nearly extinct.

"My dear, do we need to do something?" Focalors turned her head slightly, a hint of sadness in her eyes as she spoke.

Hearing this, Neuvillette fell into deep thought.

The world of Douluo Continent was a flawed one.

Flawed rules.

And flawed gods.

To make a difference, the first thing that needed to change was that humans should no longer need to hunt soul beasts to gain power.

Before the soul ring system, it was possible to give birth to a powerful being like the Asura God, which suggests that there was nothing wrong with this world at the start.

But it was the conspiracy of the Dragon God and the other gods—preventing soul beasts from becoming deities—that made it necessary to kill soul beasts, thereby controlling the number of powerful soul beasts.

And even that wasn't enough—they also needed to establish tribulations, making it extremely difficult for soul beasts to break through, and ultimately preventing them from becoming gods!

"Let them fight for a while. Even without a war between soul beasts and humans, there would still be a war for unification."

"Countless lives are destined to be lost."

"In a race war, those who die will all be heroes of their own race."

Neuvillette sighed, and then suddenly, as if struck by a thought, his eyes brightened.

"Miss Furcalor, would you be interested in taking a trip to the stars with me?"

"The starry sky on Teyvat is false; it's not what the real starry sky looks like."

"Although the starry sky on Douluo Continent is different from the one in my memory, it is real."

Focalors was taken aback. With humans and soul beasts fighting so fiercely, how could Neuvillette even think about taking a trip to the stars?

For a moment, Focalors found it hard to understand.

After a brief moment of thought, just as she was about to agree, Neuvillette seemed to have another thought. He glanced at the bracelet on Focalors' wrist.

The Love God inheritance bracelet allowed them to teleport to each other's side once a day, no matter how far apart they were.

Time was of the essence, and perhaps it would be more suitable for him to search for a solution alone.

He could return more quickly that way.

"My dear, it seems we'll have to part ways for a while," Neuvillette said, somewhat forlorn, as he shook the bracelet in his hand.

After all this traveling, this parting might be the longest yet.

"I need to find a planet where we can survive, one without any intelligent life. I'll leave Grandpa and everyone else's safety to you."

Neuvillette moved closer to Focalors, and the two stood face to face, eyes locked.

Finally, he gently kissed her forehead before transforming into a stream of water-blue energy and disappearing.

At that moment, Focalors understood.

She looked at the humans and soul beasts fighting fiercely, shaking her head.

Neuvillette may have said he wouldn't interfere, but was he really trying to help one side find a new home?

She raised her head to gaze at the starry sky.

"The real starry sky, huh? When this is over, I should go see it with Neuvillette."
