I Became the Co-Lord of Soul Beasts?

Lin Yun, floating on the sea, slowly opened his eyes. His brilliant golden pupils reflected the green sun hanging in the sky.

The confusion and haze in his eyes gradually faded, and he propped himself up on the surface of the sea with both hands.

"Where is this now?"

Wait, why did I say "now" again?

Lin Yun's mind instantly crashed, and he warily glanced around.

"This is your Spirt Sea." An ancient voice sounded faintly as a gray bead slowly drifted before Lin Yun.

"Oh, so this is my Spirt Sea! Then you are...? Wait, a gray bead!" Lin Yun subconsciously nodded. Once he noticed something was wrong, his eyes abruptly widened, and his jaw nearly dropped.

A gray bead in the Spirt Sea, and judging by the voice, an old man at that. Such a familiar plot, such an intense sense of déjà vu—Lin Yun was no fool. He immediately thought of a certain scientific genius and great magician.

The Holy Necromancer, Undead Scourge—Electrolux!

The gray bead, Electrolux, was slightly taken aback when he saw Lin Yun's expression. He asked in confusion, "You seem to know this old man?"

"No, I merely recalled the last scene before I lost consciousness. Back then, I thought I was hallucinating. I never expected you to actually move into my Spirt Sea." Lin Yun forced himself to remain calm.

He did not want to expose the fact that he was a transmigrator, at least not yet.

Although he had read the Original Work and knew that Electrolux was not some heinous villain, but rather a good teacher and friend, their relationship clearly had not reached the point where they could lay bare their hearts.

The gray bead trembled lightly, seemingly nodding. "I see. Come to think of it, this old man was indeed presumptuous. If this sliver of my Divine Sense had not been at risk of extinguishing at any moment, I would not have resorted to such a measure."

"But rest assured, sir, this old man will not stay here for nothing. In the future, I shall repay you with something of equal value."

"It's fine. I'm not that petty." Lin Yun waved his hand, his tone casual.

Yet this was merely to conceal the excitement in his heart. Among Huo Yuhao's cheats in the Original Work, Electrolux was unquestionably among the top three!

It was only because Huo Yuhao did not know how to make use of him. Otherwise, the help Electrolux could provide would definitely have surpassed that rechargeable battery, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm!

Now that this great figure had taken up residence in his Spirt Sea, Lin Yun had not even had enough time to be happy. Why would he think about driving him out?

"Do you know how long I was unconscious?" Lin Yun asked.

Though he did not know exactly how long he had been unconscious, Lin Yun knew it could not have been brief. Had he known that fusing with the Golden Dragon King Bloodline would put him into a deep sleep, he should have found somewhere safe before doing so.

But given how urgent the situation had been, if he had not fused with it, he probably would have died before he could even take off, becoming food for those two Soul Beasts.

It seemed he had not had a choice at all!

"Three years." Electrolux answered succinctly.

"?!"

Three years?!

Holy shit, I was unconscious in the Star Dou Great Forest for three years and somehow didn't die? No passing Soul Beast casually swallowed me?

Lin Yun was stunned.

He did not even have time to wonder why he had not starved to death after three years without food. Being unconscious in the Star Dou Great Forest made him nothing more than a snack—any Soul Beast only needed to stretch its neck to put him in its mouth.

Electrolux seemed to have noticed Lin Yun's shock and explained, "Not long after this old man entered your Spirt Sea, a powerful being whose cultivation was close to mine in life took you away. Since that unknown expert traveled by spatial jumping, this old man does not know how far you are from where you originally lost consciousness."

"As for what happened afterward, this old man does not know either. There was another, even more powerful existence that seemed to remain near your physical body the entire time. This sliver of my Divine Sense would not dare reveal itself before such a powerhouse."

"..." Lin Yun opened his mouth, then immediately fell into a mental storm.

Electrolux had only used the assessment "close to my cultivation in life" for Mu En, and Mu En was a Ninety-Ninth-Level Limit Douluo, one of the strongest humans alive.

Anyone else whom Electrolux assessed in those same words would definitely not be inferior to Mu En. He might even be stronger.

In the Star Dou Great Forest, someone who traveled using the Power of Space, whose strength matched or surpassed Mu En, and who had taken him to the side of an even more powerful existence.

Anyone could figure out this chain of events without much thought.

"What attribute did the person who took me away have?" Lin Yun finally asked. The answer to this question would confirm his guess.

"If you were asking about anyone else, this old man truly could not be certain. But that person—I can guarantee that he possessed the darkness attribute." Electrolux answered firmly.

"This old man is extremely familiar with both the light and darkness attributes. Moreover, he came into close contact with your body, so I was able to sense it!"

Smack!

As expected!

Di Tian had abducted him back to the Star Dou Great Forest!

Lin Yun slapped his forehead and raised his head toward the sky in disbelief, staring blankly at that green sun.

Electrolux did not know that Lin Yun's thoughts were in utter turmoil. He thought Lin Yun was curious about the green sun above him, so he continued, "That sun you are looking at is actually Life Gold. The people outside fused it into your body."

"Huh?" Lin Yun's mind crashed once again.

They fused Life Gold into my body?

Are you kidding me?

Life Gold was the lifeline of the Star Dou Great Forest, something used to heal Gu Yuena. They were actually willing to cut off a piece for him?

"This old man never expected to encounter a piece of Life Gold so fortuitously." Electrolux's tone was full of emotion. "When I first arrived in this world, this sliver of my Divine Sense was already like a candle flame in the wind. Without this piece of Life Gold, how could I possibly have maintained such clear consciousness?"

"Using the power of this Life Gold, this old man not only stabilized my Divine Sense, but also used the immense life force contained within it to transform both your body and spirit. You have gained tremendous benefits."

"Mm, thank you." Lin Yun nodded.

That really suited your character. Other than the Star Dou bunch, you were the only great expert who knew how to use Life Gold.

Awesome!

So now the question was—

Why had Di Tian and Gu Yuena brought him back to the Great Ferocious Land, and even used Life Gold on him?

Shouldn't Gu Yuena have swallowed him directly, replenished the Golden Dragon King Bloodline, and become the Dragon God again?

Had they mistaken him for the real Golden Dragon King? Had he successfully infiltrated their ranks and become one of their own?

Well, damn.

The Co-Lord of Soul Beasts was actually me?
