Chapter 214: Over… One Hundred Thousand Soul Beast Army? The Terrified Human Race
"The soul beasts are on the move. Isn't this exactly what we wanted to see? What are you afraid of?" Qian Renxue asked, confused.
"Your Highness, their numbers, they're far beyond our imagination!!"
"There are too many, too many! The soul beasts charging at us, there are more than a hundred thousand of them!!"
"What did you say!!"
"More than a hundred thousand soul beasts!? How... how is that possible!!"
The high-ranking officials in the room were shocked by this news, and panic quickly spread through the crowd. Some were unable to believe that so many soul beasts could gather.
"More than a hundred thousand soul beasts? That's impossible. You must be mistaken."
Someone immediately questioned it.
"It's absolutely true! I couldn't have made a mistake!!"
This person was one of the special spies sent by the three factions to monitor the movements of the soul beasts. His martial soul was unique, allowing him to observe the situation in the Star Luo Great Forest from afar.
Hearing this, the anxiety and panic spread among the high-ranking officials in the room.
The biggest difference between humans and soul beasts was that soul beasts rarely gathered to form a force or a massive army.
In the case of highly intelligent soul beasts like Ye Wen, they could gather soul beasts, but below the 100,000-year level, most soul beasts lived in isolation or in their own small groups.
Therefore, Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, the Seven Great Sects, and the two empires all thought that even if Ye Wen could rally the soul beasts of the Star Luo Great Forest, it would only be a small group of similar or close soul beast species.
The idea that over 10,000 soul beasts could unite seemed impossible. But now, the number had surpassed a hundred thousand?
The overwhelming presence of over a hundred thousand soul beasts would be far more intimidating than an army of humans numbering in the hundreds of thousands.
"A hundred thousand soul beasts? How could this be possible! How can they have such cohesion?"
"How did they manage to get so many soul beasts in the Star Luo Great Forest to obey commands?"
"What are we going to do now?"
"Even if we manage to kill Ye Wen, with this massive army of soul beasts, we will suffer massive casualties!!"
"Massive casualties!? The real problem is whether we can withstand the attack of this soul beast army! This is an army of soul beasts over a hundred thousand years old!!"
Voices full of doubt and panic started to rise, and the nervous atmosphere among the crowd grew more tense.
At this moment, the casual-looking Xuanlong, holding two beautiful women, spoke up with an indifferent tone: "Hey! What are you all so scared of!?"
"You're all terrified by over a hundred thousand soul beasts? You're a bunch of cowards!"
"You speak so easily! Do you have the confidence to kill the Sea Demon Whale King Ye Wen in such a short time!" A senior member of the Heaven Dou Empire shouted at Xuanlong.
They knew that this person was a powerhouse from the Star Luo Empire, and they noticed how the Star Luo Empire and Spirit Hall both treated him with great respect, but they didn't know how powerful he really was.
"Heh, listen well. When the soul beast army arrives, I'll assist Qian Daoliu and Bibi Dong from Spirit Hall in killing Ye Wen, the Sea Demon Whale King."
"If they can't do it, don't worry, I'll step in myself. In ten minutes, that beast will be dead in my hands!" Xuanlong said confidently, then added:
"After we kill the Sea Demon Whale King, I will quickly take down the rest of the powerful hundred-thousand-year soul beasts. At that point, the soul beast army will be without a leader, and I can scatter them with just a few moves, forcing them all back into the Star Luo Great Forest."
"This war will be easily resolved because of me."
"Do you all understand?" Xuanlong smiled with pride, full of confidence.
Some were stunned and wanted to question him, but Bibi Dong, anticipating their doubts, spoke up first: "You don't need to question what he's saying. His strength far surpasses mine and Qian Daoliu's."
"What?!!"
"Who is this person? Far stronger than Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu?!"
"What!? How terrifying is he?!"
The entire room was filled with shock and disbelief.
While they may not know how strong Bibi Dong is, Qian Daoliu had already become a legendary figure in the continent, known as one of the two peaks of the soul master world a hundred years ago.
Qian Daoliu was already standing at the peak of the soul master world, a level 99 peak powerhouse, something everyone in the room was well aware of.
But someone stronger than him? How terrifying must they be?
Xuanlong smiled faintly, "Heh, all of you are so naive! All you need to know is that the Sea Demon Whale King is trash in front of me. I can kill it with just a few moves!"
"If it weren't for certain reasons that prevent me from making a direct move, would I need you? I would have killed it long ago."
"This...!"
Everyone was stunned, but overall, they were pleased to hear this.
At that moment, Qian Daoliu spoke up: "Alright, the soul beast army has already charged out as we expected. Let's move to the frontlines and prepare for battle."
"Good."
The powerful individuals all left the meeting room, and after a while, they arrived at the Beast Suppression Pass.
Xuanlong did not intend to make an appearance. He planned to use his divine power to assist Qian Daoliu and Bibi Dong, boosting their strength so they could test Ye Wen's true power level.
He remained hidden, planning to ambush and strike when the opportunity arose during Ye Wen's battle with Qian Daoliu and Bibi Dong.
If that didn't work, he'd step in himself.
At this moment, the combined armies of the Star Luo Empire, Heaven Dou Empire, and Spirit Hall, numbering hundreds of thousands, had already gathered at the Beast Suppression Pass, waiting for orders. This included many soul master squads.
On top of the high walls, countless ranged soul masters and ordinary soldiers, armed with long-range weapons like bows and arrows, were ready.
The Beast Suppression Pass had been prepared in the best way to resist the soul beast army.
Meanwhile, Tang San, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and Ning Rongrong had already left Sea God Island and infiltrated the area, now positioned among the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's faction.
Their presence was still concealed, known only to Ning Fengzhi and a few others.
