Douluo Continent: Lin Dong transmigrates into Huo Yuhao

Chapter 1: Awakening a Martial Soul, and the God King's Defenses Weakened?

Star Luo Empire, White Tiger Duke's Mansion.

"That unfortunate kid is awakening his martial soul again. A mere servant, thinking he can turn his life around by awakening his martial soul? He's dreaming!"

"Yeah, year after year, I fail to awaken my spirit, and I don't even have a useless spirit. I really don't know what the point of persisting is."

"Hehe, but today is his last chance. After today, he and his mother will have no chance to turn things around!"

The resolute-faced young man, dressed in coarse linen clothes, ignored the jeers around him and walked firmly toward a middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man glanced into the boy's deep and determined eyes, and said in a rather impatient tone:

"It's been five years already, are we going to continue awakening?"

Lin Dong's numb face showed no emotion as he nodded slightly.

The middle-aged man's eyes were filled with disdain and helplessness upon seeing this, but according to the Duke's rules, he had to awaken the latter's martial spirit, simply because of the latter's identity—the illegitimate son of the White Tiger Duke. He then said in an icy tone:

"I have to remind you, this is your last chance. If you fail to awaken again, you won't have another chance next year according to the rules."

Seemingly ignoring his words, Lin Dong stood quietly in place, his eyes slightly closed, and stepped into a hexagonal stone formation.

As the middle-aged man swiftly struck out with both hands, a burst of light enveloped Lin Dong.

The middle-aged man looked at Lin Dong, who showed no change whatsoever, his eyes filled with mockery and impatience: "Are we still wasting time testing soul power?"

Lin Dong did not answer. Instead, he suddenly opened his eyes wide and placed his right hand lightly on the crystal ball. Instantly, the blue crystal ball emitted an extremely dazzling light.

The middle-aged man's face froze instantly, and after a long pause, he uttered a few words in a daze:

"Impossible! How could you... have innate full soul power? But you clearly don't even have a martial soul!"

Only then did he somewhat panic and meet Lin Dong's deep eyes, only to see a faint gray light swirling around those black eyes.

His face turned deathly pale, and he stammered, "A spirit with innate full soul power? And it's even a mutated eye spirit!"

A series of exclamations immediately arose from the surrounding crowd:

"No way... How is that possible! It's impossible for someone to succeed after failing to awaken for four consecutive years!"

"Yeah, how is that possible? Especially since it's a spirit soul with innate full soul power, it doesn't make sense!"

"Shh, don't say anything. He's already a Soul Master, and this kid has been incredibly good at fighting since he was a kid. He's also in great shape. Don't let him hear you."

"Yes, yes, no matter what, this ceremony can't go wrong. People from above will be here soon, and that woman and he are going to turn their lives around."

Amidst the awe-inspiring gazes of those who were merely opportunists around him, Lin Dong remained unmoved and composed, leaving the testing site without hesitation.

Returning to a rather simple woodshed, Lin Dong's mind stirred, and a mysterious stone talisman suddenly appeared in his palm. He murmured:

"Just as I expected, I've finally seen you, old friend. I never imagined you'd become my second martial soul. Have you fallen into a deep sleep...?"

Looking at the familiar ancestral stone before me, memories slowly welled up in my mind:

He vaguely remembered that after he opened up the dimension, on his way to find Huanhuan, he encountered a spacetime turbulence.

After a moment of dizziness, he arrived in this world and became a baby named Dai Yuhao.

From that day on, he began to try to absorb the energy in this world called "Soul Power".

But he discovered that his body seemed to be rejecting this energy.

It wasn't until a few days ago that he felt as if his body had given in, and he successfully awakened his martial spirit today.

Unfortunately, he awakened his martial spirit too late; otherwise, he and his mother wouldn't have been constantly bullied by that duchess.

Thinking of that vicious woman and her family who had caused him so much trouble, Lin Dong grinned maliciously:

"What a duchess! Dai Huabin, you used to bully my son and me in every way. I'll let you have a few more days of peace for now."

Recalling the woman named Huo Yun'er again, Lin Dong thought of her deep affection for her so-called biological father.

But in the past eleven years, he had not even seen Dai Hao once. The two of them, mother and son, had a very difficult life under the persecution of the Duchess.

Although he took on most of the heavy work for his mother, the long-term pressure, coupled with her frail health, led to her sudden death a few months ago.

Even on her deathbed, she was still trying to persuade him not to blame his father.

Lin Dong really couldn't understand. If the Duchess was forced by politics, then what was the situation with the Dai Luoli mother and son who often helped them? What was so good about that man?

Lin Dong, who was not good at matters between men and women, was somewhat irritated by this complicated situation. He let out a sigh of frustration and muttered:

"I should leave this godforsaken place tonight. It won't have been for nothing after five years of forbearance. That wicked woman probably already knows and can't sit still anymore..."

I just don't know where the Eight Ancestral Symbols have been scattered. If I had come here with him, I should be able to relax a bit.

The image of that breathtakingly beautiful yet heartbreaking face flashed through his mind, and he murmured to himself:

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

"Huanhuan, wait for me, I'll find you right away..."

The divine realm, the grand hall.

Tang San, dressed in a light blue robe, stood there quietly, manipulating his divine power, intending to observe the situation of the new star in the lower realm.

Unexpectedly, they suddenly sensed eight extremely powerful auras flying towards Douluo Star.

With a thought, eight mysterious talismans tore through the void and flew towards the lower realm.

Although his eyesight was naturally insufficient to discern the true nature of the Eight Ancestral Symbols, he could still sense their powerful aura.

He was immediately secretly pleased, a glint of covetousness flashing in his eyes, and said righteously:

"Truly, the heavens are blessing this god. The energy fluctuations emanating from these evil beings are so powerful that, in order to protect the beings of the lower realm, this god-king should take them in and put them under control."

After saying that, he manipulated his divine power, trying to take the eight mysterious talismans into his possession. A hint of smugness flashed in his eyes. With them, his grand plan for ten thousand years would surely succeed!

Unexpectedly, an extremely terrifying aura suddenly appeared, instantly shattering his divine power, and the eight talismans also scattered towards the lower realm.

Tang Shenwang, who had just been beaming with joy, suddenly became annoyed, his face darkening as he said:

"Damn it! Where did this evil foreign creature come from? Even I, the God-King, can't control it. Well, I'd better find a way to 'control' that new star in the lower realm first."

At this point, we tried to observe the situation of the Lower Realm Nova, but unexpectedly, we could no longer detect any trace of it.

Tang San's already gloomy emotions erupted instantly, his face turning ashen and his eyes wide with fury as he roared:

"Who! Who dares to sever this God-King's connection with the rising star in the lower realm? Are you trying to ruin my grand plan of ten thousand years? You have already committed suicide!"

Martial Ancestor's Will: You attacked first; I was merely retaliating casually.

After calming down for a while, Tang San looked at the main hall and shouted, suppressing his anger:

"Xiao Wu, send Xiao Qi down. For the sake of my grand plan, I can only ask Xiao Qi to make do for now..."
