**Chapter 191: Not of Our Race**

In the video.
Successive scenes showed the changes on the Douluo Continent after the Soul Ring Condensation Method was publicly released.
After White Cloud City revealed the Soul Ring Condensation Method to the entire world, almost seventy percent of Soul Masters chose to abandon the traditional system and take the path of condensing Soul Rings themselves.
The remaining thirty percent who didn't cultivate were mostly those whose level was too high, who were too old, had low aptitude, or had reached the limit of their cultivation. Abolishing their rings to recultivate was not worth it, which is why they didn't take this path.
The reason the Soul Ring Condensation Method gained widespread popularity and directly replaced the old system of hunting soul beasts for their rings as soon as it was revealed, apart from the method itself being truly excellent, was primarily because of the example set by the Lord of White Cloud City, Ye Cheng, who had already successfully cultivated it. This let everyone know that this path could truly lead to Godhood in the end.
There was no need for any god's trial, no need for any God Position inheritance; as long as one's innate talent was sufficient and one's foundation was deep enough, achieving Godhood was not a fantasy!
And with the spread of this revolutionary Soul Ring Condensation Method, the fundamental contradiction between humans and Soul Beasts on the Douluo Continent also gradually began to disappear.
Before this, despite the temporary cooperation between humans and Soul Beasts due to the demon invasion, they jointly fought against the demons!
But the contradiction between Soul Masters and Soul Beasts still existed. There were even instances where, after Soul Masters and Soul Beasts teamed up to fight demons and finally managed to kill one, the severely injured Soul Beast was finished off by a Soul Master who absorbed its Soul Ring. That Soul Master even euphemistically claimed that since it was dying anyway, it couldn't be wasted; letting him absorb its Soul Ring to enhance his strength would allow him to better fight the demons!
And yet, many humans found it quite reasonable, and thus, the matter was left unresolved.
Such incidents made the cooperation between humans and Soul Beasts extremely fragile. As long as Soul Masters still needed Soul Rings from Soul Beasts for cultivation and breakthroughs, the two sides could never truly cooperate.
But now, with the emergence of the Soul Ring Condensation Method, the necessity for Soul Beast Soul Rings disappeared for Soul Masters. Now, for Soul Masters, Soul Beasts only held allure for the Soul Bones they might possess.
However, Soul Bones were only guaranteed to be produced by hundred-thousand-year Soul Beasts. For those below that age, sometimes even if you desperately killed an eighty or ninety-thousand-year Soul Beast, the result might still be no Soul Bone.
Therefore, for Soul Masters who no longer needed Soul Rings, they would no longer go out of their way to hunt Soul Beasts—unless it was certain that the Soul Beast would produce a Soul Bone. It wasn't worth it.
[Unbelievable!]
[Humans and Soul Beasts could one day be so harmonious…]
[Yes, it's inconceivable…]
Watching the scenes of harmonious coexistence between humans and Soul Beasts displayed in the video, the many humans and Soul Beasts watching all felt it was somewhat incredible!
Star Dou Great Forest.
Core Zone.
The numerous fierce beasts led by Di Tian saw humans and Soul Beasts uniting in the video to jointly fight against the demons in the face of an external invasion, and they didn't find it unexpected. This was because the Abyss invasion was a disaster for all life in the entire world.
Humans and Soul Beasts were in the same boat, so uniting was not strange.
But when they saw the emergence of the Soul Ring Condensation Method and the contradiction between Soul Masters and Soul Beasts ceasing to exist, allowing them to truly coexist harmoniously, all the fierce beasts felt it was incredible!
"If I didn't know the video wouldn't lie, and someone told me that humans and Soul Beasts could one day coexist harmoniously, I'd surely swallow them whole," a bear-type fierce beast said, smacking its lips in disbelief.
"This is only temporary."
Di Tian, however, shook his head and said, "With the Abyss's demon invasion, both sides have a common enemy, so there's a possibility of cooperation. Once the Abyss crisis is resolved, even if humans no longer need Soul Beast Soul Rings, the relationship between the two sides will definitely not be so harmonious."
"There's a saying in the human world: 'If they are not of our race, their hearts must be different!'"
"We and humans are ultimately not the same race; we will certainly not be able to coexist harmoniously!"
The other fierce beasts fell silent upon hearing this. At their level, their wisdom was no longer inferior to that of humans in the slightest. So, what humans could think of, they could also think of. They also understood that what Di Tian said would surely become reality, because humans were such cruel creatures.
They constantly waged war, exploited, and oppressed their own kind, let alone Soul Beasts who were not human.
Harmonious coexistence?
When there's an external enemy, they need power, so they'll temporarily coexist harmoniously with you.
But once the external threat is lifted, hehe, you Soul Beasts will be useless, and your doomsday will arrive!
Almost all the fierce beasts present could imagine that if the Abyss crisis in the video were resolved, then for those humans who had the Soul Ring Condensation Method, no longer needed Soul Beast Soul Rings, and whose path to Godhood was no longer controlled by the God Realm's restrictions… the number of God-level experts would definitely explode!
These fierce beasts never doubted that humanity's talent was sufficient to achieve this. Moreover, wasn't the creator of the Soul Ring Condensation Method in the video also a human?
And once humans were liberated while only they, the Soul Beasts, were still controlled by the rules, unable to break the million-year limit and achieve Godhood... Once humanity's God-level experts became so numerous that they could easily wipe out the Soul Beast Clan, the clan's fate would either be complete extinction or being kept in captivity by humans, ready for use at any time. After all, although Soul Rings were no longer useful to Soul Masters, weren't there still Soul Bones?
Those humans, in order to obtain Soul Bones, would definitely not mind slaughtering Soul Beasts on a large scale to get them.
"Let's continue watching," Di Tian said. "Thinking so much now is useless; nothing has happened yet. Let's all carefully look to see if the future reveals any details about us Soul Beasts. We absolutely cannot fall behind the humans."
The other fierce beasts nodded and continued to watch the video attentively.
In the video.
After a series of scenes showed the viewers the changes brought by the Soul Ring Condensation Method, over a hundred years had passed in the video since the method was publicly released.
Over these hundred-plus years.
The demons descending from the Abyss Rift in the sky never decreased.
And as time flowed, now, a hundred years later, an unknown number of God-level demons had already descended.
Fortunately, the number of God-level demons descending each time was not large, sometimes only one or two, and at most four or five. Additionally, the God-level demons created a great deal of commotion when descending. Therefore, on the Douluo Continent, the many factions with God-level experts, led by White Cloud City, were able to react quickly and promptly head to the demons' landing sites to deal with them!
After these God-level demons died, their corpses were absorbed by the Douluo Continent, nourishing this world and causing the continent's energy concentration to rapidly increase, making cultivation easier.
Thus, now, a hundred years later.
The number of experts who had achieved Godhood through the Soul Ring Condensation Method had already reached several dozen. And among them, the most renowned God-level expert was undoubtedly the chief disciple of the Lord of White Cloud City, Zhu Zhuqing, known as the Asura Goddess!
