Chapter 695: Tian Gu Forbidden Territory (6)

Before long, under Wu Zhene's nurturing, a brand new consciousness emerged within the Forbidden Ant Queen.

Looking at the Forbidden Ant Queen before him, Wu Zhene felt a wave of satisfaction, but then a thought occurred to him, and his expression became hesitant. Since the Forbidden Ant Queen's current consciousness was derived with his help, did this mean that, in a sense, she was his offspring?

At this thought, Wu Zhene felt a shiver of disgust, but before he could think further, the Forbidden Ant Queen's eyes shifted, and in the next second, she focused all her attention on Wu Zhene.

Before Wu Zhene could speak, the Forbidden Ant Queen looked at him with immense excitement and said, "Father!"

Hearing the Forbidden Ant Queen's form of address, Wu Zhene was stunned. He hadn't expected that before he even opened his mouth, she would so directly call him father.

However, Wu Zhene didn't say anything to correct her; after all, accepting this identity would make his subsequent operations much more convenient.

So, in the next second, Wu Zhene placed his hand on the Forbidden Ant Queen's head. She found it extremely pleasant and couldn't help but close her eyes in enjoyment.

With the Forbidden Ant Queen now completely defenseless toward him, it wasn't long before Wu Zhene successfully placed a Restriction in her mind, smoothly taking her as his pet beast.

Having completed all this, Wu Zhene finally breathed a sigh of relief. Next, he could use the Forbidden Ant Queen to rapidly grow stronger.

After taking the Forbidden Ant Queen as his pet, Wu Zhene did not linger. He reached out his hand, and an inconspicuous ring on his ring finger flashed with a faint light, immediately drawing the Forbidden Ant Queen inside.

This was a Forbidden Realm Pet Ring, capable of containing existences other than those of the forbidden.

Originally, Wu Zhene hadn't expected the Pet Ring he refined to be of any use, having made it purely for fun, but he never expected to encounter a Forbidden Ant Queen. It had certainly come in handy.

After putting the Forbidden Ant Queen into the Pet Ring, Wu Zhene rushed at full speed toward the direction of Wu Daotian's battle aura. He hadn't even had time to refine the Forbidden Power absorbed from the Forbidden Ant Swarm, storing it all within his body.

After all, if Wu Daotian couldn't hold out, his arrival now might be able to provide some assistance.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Wu Daotian was still in a fierce battle with the Illusory Origin Giant Beast. As time passed, the Illusory Origin Giant Beast began to show signs of defeat. After all, Wu Daotian was extremely powerful himself, and with the influence of the power he had left inside the beast's body, failure was only a matter of time.

The Illusory Origin Giant Beast clearly realized this as well. Taking advantage of a slip-up by Wu Daotian, it forced him back with a palm strike, then looked at him with a hideous expression and said, "Member of the Forbidden Clan, why don't we end today's matter here? I won't hold this against you, and you leave immediately. Otherwise, don't blame me for dragging us both down together."

Hearing the Illusory Origin Giant Beast's words, Wu Daotian couldn't help but sneer. "Dragging us both down? The fish will certainly die, but the net might not necessarily break!"

As Wu Daotian's voice fell, the Illusory Origin Giant Beast's expression instantly became extremely unsightly.

"Forbidden Clan, are you not afraid I will self-detonate?"

"Self-detonate? You would need the opportunity first!"

Facing the threat of the Illusory Origin Giant Beast, there wasn't a trace of fear on Wu Daotian's face. If the opponent dared to self-detonate, he wouldn't hesitate to expose his Divine Realm power to obliterate them before they could. The reason he hadn't used Divine Realm power yet was, firstly, for safety; after all, it would be bad if the Lord of Forbidden sensed it.

Secondly, Wu Daotian also wanted to use the battle with the Illusory Origin Giant Beast to improve his own strength.

But if the Illusory Origin Giant Beast was going to play dirty with a self-detonation, he couldn't be blamed for using Divine Realm power.

With that said, Wu Daotian didn't wait for the Illusory Origin Giant Beast to react before diving back into the fierce battle.

Seeing this, the Illusory Origin Giant Beast finally understood a tragic fact: today, he was likely going to die here.

At this thought, the Illusory Origin Giant Beast showed a look of ferocity and roared at Wu Daotian, "Since you want me dead, don't think you're staying alive either!"

With that, the Forbidden Power within the Illusory Origin Giant Beast surged wildly, concentrating toward a certain point in its body. In just an instant, an incredibly terrifying power brewed, clearly intending to self-detonate and take Wu Daotian with it.

Looking at this scene, Wu Daotian couldn't help but sigh. He had originally thought he could obliterate the Illusory Origin Giant Beast without exposing his Divine Power, but now it was clear he had to use it to finish the opponent off.

Otherwise, if the opponent self-detonated, he might not survive without using Divine Power.

With this in mind, Wu Daotian no longer hid the Divine Power in his body. In an instant, a terrifying Divine Power capable of easily crushing the Illusory Origin Giant Beast suppressed its body. The terrifying force even prevented the ongoing self-detonation from continuing.

Feeling the terrifying power emanating from Wu Daotian's body, the Illusory Origin Giant Beast couldn't help but widen its eyes in shock, looking at Wu Daotian and speaking in disbelief, "This power is definitely not something a Grade Nine Forbidden could have. In fact, this isn't even power from the Forbidden Realm! Who on earth are you?"

Hearing this, Wu Daotian sneered and said, "My origins are not something you can understand. Be on your way!"

To avoid further complications, the moment Wu Daotian finished speaking, he directly killed the Illusory Origin Giant Beast, then immediately hid his Divine Power again to avoid detection.

After obliterating the Illusory Origin Giant Beast, Wu Daotian gave a large wave of his hand, directly absorbing that incredibly terrifying Forbidden Power into his body to help himself Breakthrough to Grade Ten.

"Although I didn't rely on Forbidden Power to kill the Illusory Origin Giant Beast, this battle has also yielded great gains for me. I can Breakthrough to Grade Ten."

Wu Daotian thought to himself, then planned to find a quiet place to Breakthrough to Grade Ten first.

As for finding the Tian Jin Liquid, he wasn't in a hurry. After all, a Breakthrough in the Forbidden Realm didn't require an extremely long time like in the Divine Realm. Except for terrifying existences in the Heavenly Emperor Realm like the Lord of Forbidden, for whom breaking through was extremely difficult, other forbidden beings only needed sufficient foundation to Breakthrough directly.

So, it wouldn't be too late to find the Tian Jin Liquid after breaking through to Grade Ten.

Just then, a figure appeared, looked at Wu Daotian, and spoke with a sigh, "You still ended up using the power of the Divine Realm."

As Wu Zhene appeared, Wu Daotian couldn't help but sigh, then shrugged his hands and said, "There was no other way; after all, I couldn't beat it otherwise."

"Besides, Brother, didn't you use it as well?"
