Soul Land 2: Golden Dragon King

The black figure was naturally Di Tian.

The intense dragon's might released during Lin Yun's fusion with the Golden Dragon King's bloodline had already swept through the entire Star Dou Great Forest.

For ordinary soul beasts, they could only feel a sudden oppressive aura from a higher-level bloodline, as they were too far away.

But for the fierce beasts of Star Dou, like Di Tian, they could truly sense the pure and majestic dragon aura.

After kneeling respectfully before Lin Yun, Di Tian gently picked him up, opened a spatial gate, and stepped through it.

Life Lake.

Di Tian emerged from the spatial gate, holding a human child in his arms. However, this child radiated a dragon's might even stronger than Di Tian's.

"Di Tian, who is he...?" Bi Ji, the Emerald Swan, glanced fearfully at Lin Yun before whispering to Di Tian.

Besides Bi Ji, the Demon Eye Tree King Wan Yao Wang, the Dark Golden Terrorclaw Bear Xiong Jun, the Three-Headed Red Demon Dog Chi Wang, and the Hell Demon Dragon King Zi Ji were all present.

Only the elusive Yao Ling was missing. The other kings of Star Dou had all gathered here.

Of course, it was also possible that Yao Ling wasn't qualified to be here.

Hearing Bi Ji's question, Di Tian smiled.

"The time for us soul beasts to counterattack humans is almost here!"

He didn't directly reveal Lin Yun's identity, only giving a cryptic explanation before stepping into the spatial gate with Lin Yun and disappearing from Life Lake.

"So mysterious, why can't he just say it outright?" The blunt Xiong Jun grumbled discontentedly.

He disliked anything that required too much thought. If there was a disagreement, they should just fight it out. If one fight wasn't enough, then two.

The power of a bear!

Wan Yao Wang glanced helplessly at this muscle-brained fool before shaking his head and leaving.

If he stayed with Xiong Jun too long, he feared his own intelligence, the greatest in Star Dou, would be tainted, becoming as obsessed with fighting as Xiong Jun.

Chi Wang, the weakest among the fierce beasts, blinked his three heads, exchanged glances, and silently greeted Bi Ji before also leaving Life Lake.

He had come to investigate the mysterious pressure earlier. Now that the source had been found by Di Tian, and since Di Tian didn't explain, Chi Wang saw no reason to stay.

The Emperor's Auspicious Beast still needed his protection. Among the fierce beasts, Chi Wang was the busiest.

Seeing that no one paid him any attention, Xiong Jun snorted impatiently and left as well. Only Bi Ji remained by the lake, silently gazing at the shimmering water.

In the pocket dimension.

Gu Yuena, who had been counting every second, finally saw Di Tian return. The moment Di Tian entered the dimension, her eyes fell on Lin Yun.

"Yes, it's this aura, it's him!" Gu Yuena said excitedly.

At this, Gu Yuena, despite her injuries, radiated a dreamy multicolored light from her slender and beautiful dragon form, eventually transforming into a silver-haired, purple-eyed woman of breathtaking beauty.

"Is he asleep?" Gu Yuena quickly approached Lin Yun, gently placing her hand on his forehead. After a moment, her expression became complex.

"To escape from the God Realm, you actually paid such a heavy price, abandoning your original body and completely transforming into a human, retaining only your most fundamental power."

After Gu Yuena removed her hand, a strange mark appeared on Lin Yun's forehead.

It was a golden mark composed of dragon wings and dragon bones. At a glance, it somewhat resembled...

A scythe?

"Leave him to me. You may go," Gu Yuena said softly.

"Yes, my Queen," Di Tian bowed and handed Lin Yun to Gu Yuena before turning and leaving the dimension.

After Di Tian left, Gu Yuena's calm face suddenly broke into a captivating smile. Her delicate fingers poked Lin Yun's cheek.

"I should have called you brother, but you've taken on such a small form. If you've lost your memories, perhaps I could have you call me sister?"

"Giggle~"

Gu Yuena had briefly considered devouring the slumbering Lin Yun to perfect her bloodline and become the complete Dragon God.

But the thought was quickly dismissed.

If she were in dire straits, with no other options, she might have chosen to devour Lin Yun to restore the glory of the Dragon God. But this was not a desperate situation, and she had no desire to merge with another being, unsure if she would still be herself afterward.

Having her own consciousness, it was natural not to want to become someone else. Gu Yuena was no different.

She didn't know if she would still be herself after devouring Lin Yun and becoming the Dragon God.

Moreover, in her current state...

From any perspective, devouring Lin Yun was not the best choice, but a last resort in desperate times.

The pocket dimension fell silent once more.

Only Gu Yuena, now in human form, and the slumbering Lin Yun remained.

He would sleep for a full three years.

...

Since Lin Yun had now 'become human,' he still needed the necessary energy to sustain life. Gu Yuena took a piece of Life Gold, born from Life Lake, and fused it into his body.

The immense life force of the Life Gold would sustain Lin Yun's energy needs and accelerate his awakening.

Without Gu Yuena's help, Lin Yun might have needed several more years to awaken from his slumber.

The power of the Golden Dragon King was not so easily digested.

Of course, besides Gu Yuena, a certain old man who had gained much also secretly absorbed the Life Gold's energy to repair his divine sense while using it to expand Lin Yun's sea of consciousness.

Using someone's sea of consciousness as a home and taking advantage of its resources, the old man felt a bit guilty. If he didn't help out, he felt he wouldn't have the face to continue staying.

In a verdant sea of consciousness, Lin Yun's ethereal body floated on the surface, with green-gold waves constantly lapping at him.

Above the sea of consciousness hung a radiant green-gold sun, emitting a life-filled green light that illuminated the entire sea.

Of course, calling it a sea was a stretch—it was more like a modest lake.

But compared to a normal human's sea of consciousness, Lin Yun's current mental strength was already comparable to that of a Soul Elder-level spiritual-type soul master.

This was the power of Life Gold.
