Reborn as Di Tian

Star Dou Great Forest, core region, Lake of Life.

This was the heart of the Star Dou Great Forest. Only Ferocious Beasts with at least 200,000 years of cultivation could live here.

Lin Mo looked down at his brand-new arms, covered in black dragon scales that looked as if they had been carved with a blade. There were the long black robes on his body, and his golden eyes. Unbidden, his thoughts turned to the anime he had watched in his previous life: Douluo Continent 2: Peerless Tang Sect.

"I've become Di Tian." Beside a stone table by the Lake of Life, a thin man in black with golden eyes muttered in surprise.

He remained stunned for a long time.

When he looked up, a beautiful woman in a long emerald-green dress appeared before him. Her figure was shapely, though the loose green dress made it somewhat less noticeable. But the life-filled presence she gave off would still make every Soul Beast yearn to be near her.

At that moment, she slowly met his eyes and said with a hint of bashful reproach, "Husband, why do you keep staring at me?"

"You're Bi Ji, right?" Di Tian asked slowly.

The question left the beautiful woman in green utterly bewildered. Bi Ji hurried forward and placed a hand on his head. Life and healing Soul Power flowed naturally through her, but she found nothing unusual.

Even more puzzled, she said, "Di Tian, what's wrong?"

"Ah! Nothing, I'm fine." Hearing Bi Ji's words, Lin Mo hurriedly answered. He composed his expression, doing his best to display Di Tian's dignity.

Lin Mo realized he had transmigrated, and into none other than Di Tian, the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King.

He pulled the woman in the long green dress into his arms.

He was trying to dispel her doubts.

His thoughts also began to race. He had actually become Di Tian, a formidable figure of his generation. Then he suddenly remembered something.

Doesn't that mean I'm in Douluo II?

At the thought of the future plot, his expression changed, and he immediately circulated his Soul Power.

His cultivation of over 500,000 years erupted, and he soared into the air.

After wobbling for a moment, he rushed out of the Lake of Life.

"Husband!" Di Tian's sudden outburst left Bi Ji at a loss.

Along the way, Lin Mo tried to understand this tremendous power, but found it very difficult.

As the Dragon King's personal guard, Di Tian was tremendously powerful. He possessed a domain, the Dragon God Claw, the Black Dragon Sword, dragon might, and more. At this point in time, his physical body and divine soul also had over 700,000 years of cultivation.

And that was without having finished absorbing the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's Spiritual Origin.

Lin Mo knew that getting familiar with this power would take time and careful planning.

So he circulated the Soul Core in his dantian and drew back all the Soul Power he had released.

He began looking into the state of the Star Dou Great Forest. Besides wanting to test his strength, he had rushed out of the Lake of Life to see where he was on the timeline, what stage Douluo II had reached, and how far Huo Gua had developed.

Yet as soon as he appeared outside the Star Dou Great Forest, he sent out a thought and sensed the forest's flourishing state and the vitality of its Soul Beasts. Their numbers were terrifyingly vast; every few hundred meters, he could see a different Soul Beast.

This was not the Douluo II era at all.

According to the original story, Soul Beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest had been slaughtered on a terrifying scale during Douluo II, leaving pitifully few.

Only later, when the Soul Spirit System appeared, did things improve slightly.

Lin Mo confirmed that he was in the golden age of Douluo I.

He then began sorting through the memories in his mind.

He discovered that three years ago, the Silver Dragon King had ordered him never to disturb her unless her life was in danger, the Soul Beasts faced extinction, or something equally grave occurred. She was in secluded cultivation to recover her body and would not come out until she succeeded.

That was good news.

He knew that the Silver Dragon King, despite being a Soul Beast, had been indecisive and fallen in love with a human, leading to the Soul Beasts' tragic fate later on.

She was better off staying in seclusion, rather than leading the Soul Beasts to their deaths.

He absolutely could not let that tragedy happen again.

The Silver Dragon King was recuperating, and there were no gods on Douluo. This was unquestionably the best time.

But in the Douluo Continent's system, Soul Beasts were undoubtedly the lowliest of existences. It was bad enough that they were consumables on a Soul Master's path of growth, but they also had only one chance to take human form.

A Ferocious Beast like Di Tian had long since lost his chance to take human form.

That meant... there was only one path: seize a human Soul Master's body and cultivate again from scratch. Only then would he have a chance to become a god.

Di Tian fell silent for a moment. This would be a difficult path.

But he had to try, or he would become the Tang God King's plaything.

Tap, tap~~

As Di Tian pondered, a woman dressed entirely in purple walked slowly over. Her tight purple leather outfit outlined her alluring, sexy figure.

Unlike Bi Ji, her sexy body was on full display.

"Master, what's wrong? Is something the matter?"

Zi JI spoke worriedly. She had been watching from behind him for quite some time.

She had noticed a great change in her master today. Di Tian had always been mature and steady, and she had never seen such a grave expression on his face. Something was very wrong with him.

Could something major have happened?

"Nothing. What did you come to see me about?"

Di Tian waved a hand, suppressing his emotions as he turned to Zi JI.

Zi JI's sexy outfit made him stare a little longer, leaving her blushing furiously.

She was embarrassed and annoyed, yet she greatly enjoyed the way her master admired her.

She had always liked Di Tian, something the other Ferocious Beasts all knew. Di Tian had simply never been willing to say how he felt.

Why does he have that expression today?

Zi JI steadied herself. "Master, it's our turn to absorb Tian Meng's origin..."

"Oh, let's go."

Di Tian swept out an arm and pulled Zi JI close, ready to return to the Lake of Life.

How could he possibly pass up an opportunity like the Tian Meng power bank?

At that moment, Zi JI's blush grew even hotter. She had never experienced such an intimate gesture from Di Tian before.

As a fellow descendant of the dragon race, she loved Di Tian dearly and was willing to give everything for her master.

It was just that her master had never shown any interest in her. Why had his attitude taken a 180-degree turn today?

Zi JI thought no more about it and tilted her head farther onto Di Tian's shoulder.

Di Tian felt no discomfort at her action and continued speeding along with his Soul Power. Before long, the two arrived at the Lake of Life.

As soon as they returned, Bi Ji sensed their presence. She was somewhat surprised to see Di Tian and Zi JI acting so intimately, but she felt no jealousy.

She had always tacitly accepted their relationship; it was simply that Di Tian had never accepted Zi JI.

Nearby, Xiong Jun and the Scarlet King saw Di Tian and Zi JI return and slowly stepped back to make room for them. They took turns absorbing the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's essence and were long accustomed to this, so there was no need for words.

Di Tian said nothing. He walked quietly up to the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, circulated his Soul Power, and began drawing out the million-year Soul Beast's essence.

Tian Meng still had half his life force left, and absorbing it was extraordinarily effective.

While absorbing it, Di Tian once again pondered the path of body possession.

He thought of the Snow Empress's path to human form. As a 700,000-year Soul Beast who had missed the best chance to transform, the Snow Empress had erased the soul of a hundred-thousand-year snow lotus and taken it over.

In that case, it seemed that taking human form through possession was possible as long as the soul was strong and the body being seized was relatively weak!

With Tian Meng as a power bank, he had no need to worry about spiritual power!

The key was that, to take human form, he would have to disperse his nearly 500,000 years of cultivation. He had to make careful arrangements for the safety of his future cultivation path and everything needed to become a god before he could transform.

Di Tian knew all too well how difficult it was to become a god, but he had not the slightest intention of giving up.

Even if the worst came to the worst and he died, he refused to remain a Soul Beast, helpless to be slaughtered at others' whim.

"Only..." Di Tian's gaze shifted to Zi JI and Bi Ji. If I take human form through possession, will they still be willing to stay with me?

Under Di Tian's gaze, Bi Ji grew somewhat puzzled. In the end, she could not help asking, "Husband, what are you thinking about?"
