Douluo Continent II: The Dragon Breaks the Nine Heavens

Chapter 319 I am the Lord of Soul Beasts, Star Team

Emerging from the starry sky-like space tunnel, everyone's eyes were suddenly drawn to a bright, azure lake that seemed to float upside down in the sky.

The lake surface rippled gently in the breeze, its waters crystal clear. The rich primordial energy and life force of heaven and earth even gathered into cloud-like currents that swirled and floated above the lake. The natural atmosphere that swept over us seemed to wash away the weariness from the surface of our bodies to the depths of our souls.

If I had to describe the scenery before me in four words, then "paradise on earth" would be the most fitting.

"Welcome to the Lake of Life!" Lin Yun turned around and smiled at Xiao Xiao and Zhang Lexuan.

Although the scenery of the Lake of Life was indeed beautiful, neither Xiao Xiao nor Zhang Lexuan paid attention to the surrounding scenery, but rather to Lin Yun and the several figures behind him.

"Soul beast... no, it's a ferocious beast!" Zhang Lexuan's throat tightened, and she subconsciously took a step back, her expression extremely tense.

The difference in aura between Soul Masters and Soul Beasts is still quite large. Perhaps it is due to the different cultivation systems. Soul Masters who cultivate Martial Souls have a much more peaceful aura, while Soul Beasts have an exceptionally wild and ferocious aura.

This is the advantage of soul beasts, and also the reason why most soul masters of the same level cannot defeat soul beasts of the same level.

As always, Zhang Lexuan, who had more experience, was the first to confirm the identities of Di Tian and the others. Although Di Tian and the others did not deliberately release their pressure, they did not make any special effort to conceal their aura. The terrifying aura that made Zhang Lexuan's scalp tingle was so frightened.

The more you know, the more you fear. Zhang Lexuan probably will never forget the aura of a 100,000-year-old soul beast. After all, she had deeply felt despair from a 100,000-year-old soul beast. She had to fight desperately to kill one, even after losing several inner court disciples.

Now, facing a 100,000-year-old soul beast once again, and one that was clearly beyond her comprehension, Zhang Lexuan even had the urge to run away.

It's really not her fault.

So what if a Soul Douluo possesses a 100,000-year-old Soul Ring? No matter how strong they are, they can only be compared to a slightly weaker Title Douluo. Compared to a ferocious beast that can transform into human form and has been around for over 200,000 years, they are utterly fragile.

Lake of Life?

I think this is clearly an extremely unlucky place!

Zhang Lexuan smiled bitterly to herself, her gaze towards Lin Yun becoming complicated. She never expected that her choice when she had no other choice would be a powerful soul beast BOSS. No wonder Lin Yun said that once she joined his faction, there was no way to leave except through death.

The blood feud between Soul Masters and Soul Beasts...

Was her choice really the right one?

But soon, the confusion and fear in Zhang Lexuan's eyes dissipated.

Right? Wrong?

Is it important?

It doesn't matter anymore. For her, nothing really matters anymore. She's already at her wit's end. So what if she's a soul beast? Compared to the human world where she's been trapped in a vortex of conspiracies her whole life, joining the soul beast side doesn't seem so bad.

It's nothing more than death. Even if I die, I'll probably be killed by the enemy in battle. This kind of death is much better than being treated as a puppet for the rest of my life.

Zhang Lexuan, who had already given up, quickly accepted it, while Xiao Xiao was completely dumbfounded.

"Yun...Brother Yun, are you a soul beast?" Xiao Xiao looked at Lin Yun with complicated eyes. She didn't know why, even though she and Lin Yun had done the most intimate things more than once, she felt that Lin Yun was so unfamiliar for the first time.

Is this why you've never told me your identity?

Is this why you haven't told me about the forces behind you?

"Compared to soul beasts, I think the title 'god' suits me better." Since he had already decided to lay his cards on the table, Lin Yun naturally wouldn't hide anything.

However, it feels a bit strange to describe himself as a "soul beast." He is a real person, but when he is at work, he is referred to by his title by Di Tian and the others.

Therefore, Lin Yun put it another way: "I am the sovereign of all soul beasts, but I am not a soul beast. My true form is the Golden Dragon King, an avatar of the Dragon God, and I am a god."

god……

Xiao Xiao and Zhang Lexuan exchanged a glance, and at the same time, they saw their pupils dilate in shock.

Okay, that makes sense.

In fact, Xiao Xiao also felt that what happened to Lin Yun was too magical. When she first met Lin Yun, he was the most awesome among all the freshmen. His spirit ring ratio was completely unreasonable, with two purple and one black. Moreover, this ratio became even more exaggerated after he returned from the summer vacation. Not only did it soar from three rings to five rings in a month, but the spirit ring ratio also changed to three black and two red.

Is this the possible soul ring configuration for a human?

Zhang Lexuan, the strongest senior sister in the inner court of Shrek Academy, had a normal ratio of spirit rings for the first seven, and only her eighth spirit ring was 100,000 years old. Even so, Zhang Lexuan was already hailed as the most outstanding prodigy of Shrek Academy in this generation.

This is only because Xiao Xiao didn't know that Lin Yun's spirit rings were all red and his level had reached 69. Otherwise, the knowledge of spirit masters that this girl had received since childhood would probably have burned out her CPU.

Zhang Lexuan finally had a question answered. What kind of bullshit exam was this?!

He is a god! Since he was originally a god, doesn't everything that seems illogical about him have the most reasonable explanation?

As for the titles "Dragon God" and "Golden Dragon King," Zhang Lexuan and Xiao Xiao didn't really understand them. They just thought, "They must be very powerful gods."

How could they, who knew nothing of the history of the war between the gods, possibly understand how powerful that idiot Dragon God was?

"So, Brother Yun, are these people behind you... your subordinates?" Xiao Xiao finally asked this question after organizing her thoughts for a long time.

The main reason was that Di Tian and his group were really intimidating. Without knowing the significance of Lin Yun's identity as the Lord of Soul Beasts, Xiao Xiao didn't dare to speak too openly, for fear of offending Di Tian and his group and then being eaten like a crunchy little cookie.

"They're not just subordinates, they're all my right-hand men, brothers and sisters!" Lin Yun said with a smile, recalling a director's evaluation of his childhood idol from his childhood memories.

When Di Tian and the others heard Lin Yun introduce them in this way, although they remained silent, they could not hide the emotions in their eyes. They all stood tall and proud.

I, Di Tian (Ice Emperor, Snow Emperor, King of Ten Thousand Demons, Bi Ji, Bear Lord, Red King, Purple Princess...), am Your Majesty's brother and sister!

To be honest, Lin Yun didn't really treat Di Tian and the others as subordinates. At the beginning, he basically treated them as partners. He would impersonate the Lord of Soul Beasts to borrow their power and use their resources, and then he would pay an equivalent return to lead them to counterattack the God Realm and break the shackles that Soul Beasts could not become gods.

In this sense, it's actually Di Tian and his group who profited. Investing in Lin Yun, this transmigrator, might actually restore the glory of the beast race. But if they pinned their hopes on Gu Yuena, it wouldn't be a reliance, but a reliance without any real support.

Therefore, Lin Yun didn't hold back at all at the beginning. He knew that he should do what he was supposed to do and ordered Di Tian and the others around without feeling guilty.

It wasn't until later, when Di Tian and the others truly respected and loved him as a supreme being, and he felt he owed more and more favors to the soul beast clan, that Lin Yun truly began to regard Xingdou as his home.

Transmigrators are lonely. Facing an unfamiliar world, there will always be a sense of alienation. It was Di Tian and the others who gave Lin Yun warmth in this strange world.

He may lack the integrity of a "supreme ruler," but he cannot lack the bottom line of being a human being.

Although he still commanded Di Tian and the others as the sovereign of the soul beasts, this was a helpless approach for a leader. For a leader, being too approachable is not a good thing. Faced with the mess of soul beasts, Lin Yun needed absolute control and could not give traitorous soul beasts like Ah Yin, Xiao Wu, and Gu Yue Na any chance to act crazy.

Putting aside his identity as the leader of the Soul Beast Lord, Lin Yun truly did not regard Di Tian and the others as his subordinates. He had always thought this way, so he could say it without any psychological pressure!

"Come on, let me introduce my brothers and sisters to you two!" Lin Yun said with a smile to Xiao Xiao and Zhang Lexuan, and patted Di Tian on the shoulder.

"This is Di Tian, ​​the Beast God of the Star Dou Great Forest, and also the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, ranked number one on your human list of the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts, with 820,000 years of cultivation!"

"This is the Snow Empress, the ruler of the far north, and the Ice and Snow Maiden, ranked third on the Ferocious Beast List, with a cultivation of 700,000 years!"

"Bi Ji, the fourth-ranked Emerald Swan on the Ferocious Beast Ranking, with 560,000 years of cultivation!"

"The King of Ten Thousand Demons, the Demon-Eyed Tree ranked fifth on the Ferocious Beast List, with 540,000 years of cultivation!"

"Bear Lord, the sixth on the Ferocious Beast Ranking, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, with 470,000 years of cultivation!"

"Ice Emperor, the seventh-ranked Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion on the Ferocious Beast Ranking, with 400,000 years of cultivation!"

"The Crimson King, the third Crimson Demon Hound ranked eighth on the Ferocious Beast List, with 320,000 years of cultivation!"

"Zi Ji, the Ninth on the Ferocious Beast Ranking, the Hell Demon Dragon King, with 290,000 years of cultivation!"

Apart from the absence of the second-ranked Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler and the tenth-ranked Demon Spirit who remains a recluse in the void, eight of the ten ferocious beasts have gathered!

Including Lin Yun himself, there are a total of eight ferocious beasts, forming an all-star soul beast team!

After introducing the soul beasts, Lin Yun put his arm around Xiao Xiao's slender waist and winked at the Ice and Snow Emperors: "This is Xiao Xiao, my queen, and also your little sister, Bing'er and Xue'er. Please take good care of her!"

The two Ice and Snow Emperors smiled and nodded at Xiao Xiao, their attitude very friendly.

Xiao Xiao, still feeling dizzy, bowed slightly to the two Ice and Snow Emperors and awkwardly called them "Sister" twice.

Honestly, she's only been at level 50 for a short time, hasn't even obtained her fifth spirit ring yet, and she's already going to be sisters with the first two of the Three Heavenly Kings of the Far North?!

As for Zhang Lexuan...

She stepped forward, holding the hem of her skirt, and gracefully bowed to the assembled soul beasts: "Greetings, fellow beast kings. My name is Zhang Lexuan, and I am Your Majesty's human maid."
