Douluo: Lin Dong Travels Through Huo Yuhao

Chapter 5: The Surprise of Going Deep into the Stars

After a dizzy spell, Lin Dong opened his eyes and looked at the strange space around him. He saw a white head suddenly appear in front of him.

Even though he was startled, he came to his senses after a moment and said in a cold tone:
"Where have you taken me?"

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm spoke with a hint of fear, and said seriously:

"I don't have that ability. This is your spiritual sea. By the way, can I ask what's going on with that person?"

Lin Dong looked in the direction he turned his head and saw another self. Then he realized that this seemed to be a place similar to a shrine.

He looked carefully and found that he had now turned into a soul body!

This was the first time he had experienced such a magical thing. Then the coldness in his tone dissipated a little, and he looked at the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and replied:

"This is none of your business. Why are you running into my spiritual sea?"

"Brother... didn't I tell you that I want to become your wisdom spirit ring? I compressed my own power and now it has become the spirit ring of your first martial spirit. We are now grasshoppers in the same boat."

Lin Dong noticed the change in its address, glanced at himself sitting quietly on the throne next to him, and looked at it with a little amusement:
"Are you trying to threaten me with this?"

Tian Meng could sense that Lin Dong did not seem to have any ill will towards him at this moment, so he smiled and said:

"How could that be? I just bet everything on you, and I want to be as rich and powerful as you! By the way, should I call you Dai Yuhao or Lin Dong?"

Lin Dong was a little surprised after hearing this and asked, "How do you know my name?"

"Of course it's because I can read your memory. You were bullied in the Duke of White Tiger, and the martial spirit that awakened was the Desolate Demon Eye and the thing called the Ancestral Stone..."

Hearing it recounting its life in this plane like a treasure, and seemingly not mentioning its life in Tianxuan, Lin Dong couldn't help but wonder:

"Then why are you asking me about that person? Wouldn't it be better to just read his memory directly?"

Tian Meng's expression changed slightly, and he said bitterly:
"How dare I? He is full of evil spirit. Besides, he is much stronger than me. I don't have the qualifications to read his memory."

After hearing this, Lin Dong realized that this guy probably had no access to the memories of Tianxuan.

He looked at its sullen look again and couldn't help but smile. This was the first time someone, probably an animal, had said to his face that he was very fierce. He looked at this guy carefully for a few times and couldn't help but think:

I thought I would meet a guy like Little Marten, but I didn't expect him to be a little more timid than 'Master Diao'.

When he thought of Xiao Diao, Lin Dong couldn't help but raise a smile at the corner of his mouth. He looked at Tian Meng kindly and said:
"In that case, please introduce your role. I don't really want to have another freeloader in my head."

"Alas, I really don't know why my luck is so bad that I actually met you. However, since things have come to this, I can only force myself to board this pirate ship."

After hearing this, Lin Dong patted it on the head in annoyance: "What are you talking about! How can you be so talkative, you big meatworm? You are just as annoying as that guy."

Although he was blaming her, Tian Meng looked at his expression and wondered why he missed her so much. Then she nodded:
"Alas, it seems that I can only tell you about my dark history."

Afterwards, Tian Meng described how he had fallen into a deep sleep and how he had been imprisoned by the ferocious beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest. Finally, he talked about why he chose Lin Dong, and the shock and grievance he felt after coming in.

Looking at the somewhat cute expression of the big insect, Lin Dong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This guy had been sleeping for a million years and his mind was really not very mature. He was somewhat similar to Xiao Diao when he was young.

Then he suppressed the smile in his heart and asked:

"Alright, alright. I know you've been through a lot. Now tell me something serious. What abilities can you bring to me?" Tian Meng was just waiting for these words. He puffed out his chest with pride and boasted wildly about his four soul skills, his million-year soul ring, and the seal.

Lin Dong nodded after hearing this, and suddenly asked, "Uh...that's it?"

Tian Meng seemed to feel that he was being looked down upon, and said angrily:

"I am the only soul beast in Douluo Continent that can provide four soul skills! It's not that you don't take bean buns as dry food, no, it's that you don't know it when you are in a treasure mountain!"

Looking at Tian Meng who looked like someone whose tail had been stepped on, why did he feel so much like Xiao Diao? Lin Dong couldn't help laughing and said:
"Okay, okay, you are the strongest, okay? In this case, when can I wake up?"

"immediately!"

Before Tian Meng finished speaking, Lin Dong, who was lying on the ground, slowly opened his eyes and looked at the familiar forest in front of him. Tian Meng's voice rang in his mind again:

"Brother is finally free. Those bastards who wanted to eat me, do you still have a chance? Hahaha!"

Listening to its gloating voice, Lin Dong couldn't help but sigh. If this guy is in my mind, I will be annoyed to death every day.

Then he shook his head and said to Tian Meng: "I have to go in a little further, you won't be discovered, right?"

"Of course. Although I don't dare to touch your guy, my spiritual power is superior to those bastards."

After hearing its assurance, Lin Dong finally felt relieved and turned his neck to go deeper into the forest.

"By the way, how come your physical strength is so high? Could it be that you were bullied by those people when you were a child?"

Hearing Tian Meng's curious question, Lin Dong hummed lightly: "It's all thanks to them. I will repay them well in the future."

Seeing that Lin Dong was unwilling to talk about this topic anymore, Tian Meng tactfully stopped asking and lazily said, "Then I'll go to sleep first." Then he said no more.

Feeling the quietness of his spiritual sea, Lin Dong let out a long sigh. It has been a while since he talked so much...

After advancing another thousand meters along the forest, Lin Dong felt the gradually increasing pressure from the soul beasts inside, and his face became a little solemn.

"Three thousand meters, one thousand meters, five hundred meters, one hundred meters, damn it! I'm not going anymore."

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Tian Meng's voice suddenly rang out:

"Don't worry, Lin Dong, there seems to be some movement ahead, go check it out."

When Lin Dong heard it say this, although he was a little worried, he still walked quietly forward after hesitating for a while.

After walking about a hundred meters, Lin Dong's eyes suddenly opened and his pupils dilated. What was going on?
I saw the corpse of a soul beast that looked like a weasel, lying on the ground like charcoal, and it seemed that it had just died.

Before Lin Dong could react, Tian Meng’s exclamation sounded in his mind:

"Uh, this Huang Sangui...was struck by lightning? That's not right. Judging from its length, it must have cultivated for at least 30,000 years. This soul beast is famous for being insidious and cunning. How could it be killed by lightning?"

Hearing what it said, Lin Dong’s curiosity was also ignited. Suddenly, he felt a familiar breath and the corners of his mouth curled up:
"Hush, I know why!"

Under Lin Dong's somewhat fiery gaze, a lightning talisman with a purple glow all around it just hovered quietly in front of him...
