Donghai Spirit Transfer Pagoda

Because these matters held them up, noon arrived very quickly. Xu Xiaoyan in particular stubbornly pestered Yu Nanyuan into chatting for nearly two hours.

Through his conversation with Xu Xiaoyan, Yu Nanyuan gradually gained a sense of reality, and he also came to understand some things. If he had failed to withstand the impact brought by the fusion of two souls, causing his Spiritual Sea to collapse and him to die here, then the future would have unfolded exactly as it had in his Past Life Memory.

But now he had survived. Everything would be different.

During this time, Yu Zhen happened to have his Private Chef specially prepare a nutritious lunch, with no lack of some extremely rare and expensive ingredients. These dishes were all relatively easy to digest and absorb, naturally taking Yu Nanyuan's current condition into account. After such a long coma, his bodily functions needed a certain amount of time to readjust.

If Long Tianwu had not previously used Titled Douluo-level soul power to nourish Yu Nanyuan's body once over, he would probably have had difficulty even standing and walking.

After grandfather and grandson had lunch, they finally took the exclusive Soul Guidance Elevator down to the plaza beneath the building.

A total of five high-rises stood around the central plaza, forming the pattern of a five-pointed star. This was also the best district in Eastsea City. Almost all the bustling streets were nearby, and even the renowned Eastsea Academy in Eastsea City was not far from here.

However, there were not many pedestrians coming and going across the plaza. Instead, the environment seemed exceptionally quiet and secluded. That was because entering this area required a Threshold; not everyone could live here. Various green plants and bright flowers dotted the area, making it look nothing like the center of a modern city.

A glossy black Soul Guidance Car had long since stopped in front of the building. Its body was elongated and streamlined, with four wheels underneath and tracks along the edge of the chassis, clearly allowing it to adapt to all sorts of terrain.

It did not look luxurious or ostentatious, but low-key and restrained.

Beside the car doors, two men in Formal Wear saw Yu Nanyuan and Yu Zhen approaching and hurried forward, respectfully opening the doors for them. One hand of each man guarded the top of the car door to prevent any bumping.

Although Yu Zhen was usually very low-profile, with his status, having a Private Driver was an entirely normal arrangement.

Yu Nanyuan and Yu Zhen sat one after another in the spacious back row of the Soul Guidance Car, while the two men in black split their duties, one driving and the other sitting upright in the front passenger seat, ready at any moment to heed Yu Zhen and Yu Nanyuan's instructions.

The soul guidance engine let out a low rumble, and the Soul Guidance Car soon drove toward the bustling central streets.

The Repair Work in Eastsea City seemed to be nearly finished today. At the very least, this area in the city center had regained its former liveliness. High-rises stood one after another, and all kinds of Soul Guidance Cars sped past endlessly on the streets. The bustling crowds gave off an invisible sense of pressure, while clamorous noise rang on without pause.

The Man in Black sitting in the front passenger seat understood and pressed the soundproofing button, restoring quiet to the interior of the Soul Guidance Car.

Yu Nanyuan had changed into a loose silver tracksuit. Leaning by the car window, he watched the scenes outside flash by rapidly, a thoughtful look on his face.

Eastsea City, Xu Xiaoyan, Tang Wulin...

If nothing unexpected had happened, then Tang Wulin should still be in Aolai City, not far from Eastsea City. And because of Tang Wulin's existence, the Silver Dragon King, transformed into human form, would also come here. In the future, the Douluo Plane would even suffer the threat of the Abyss Plane, even though all of this was the scheme of a certain selfless God King.

A classic ten-thousand-year plan.

These things might not have much to do with the current Yu Nanyuan. But if possible, he naturally wanted to become a powerful soul master. That was the aspiration of everyone on Douluo Continent. And now that he knew the upheavals that would happen in the future, his thirst for power grew even stronger.

After all, no one would hope for their fate to be held in another's hands, to become one insignificant chess piece of the Tang God King.

"Nanyuan, are you thinking about the Martial Soul Awakening?" Noticing Yu Nanyuan's odd state, Yu Zhen asked Yu Nanyuan beside him softly, a smile on his face.

"If nothing goes wrong, you should also awaken our Yu Family's hereditary martial soul, the Silver Pattern Chains."

Although it was not absolute, if both parents were powerful soul masters of considerable strength, then when their offspring awakened their martial soul, there was also an extremely high chance they would possess Innate Soul Power. This was also the main reason the great soul master clans on the continent had been able to pass down their lineages to this day.

And Yu Nanyuan clearly met this condition, so Yu Zhen was not particularly worried that Yu Nanyuan would be unable to become a soul master.

Yu Nanyuan was first startled, then nodded calmly.

"Yes."

As he spoke, he also recalled the scenes of his grandfather using his Martial Soul Ability several times.

Their hereditary Silver Pattern Chains was a top-tier Tool Martial Soul of extremely high quality. Compared to the Clear Sky Hammer that had left countless legends across the continent back then, it was not inferior in the slightest. The difference was that the Clear Sky Hammer leaned toward strength and assault, while the Silver Pattern Chains took more of a control-system route.

The reason a top-tier Tool Martial Soul like the Silver Pattern Chains was not well-known on the continent was mainly that no iconic powerhouse had ever appeared, and its inheritance was rare.

Compared to those children born into Commoner families on the continent, Yu Nanyuan could already be considered quite lucky.

The Soul Guidance Car passed through a tunnel, and the light abruptly dimmed. A pink rhombus-shaped crystal pendant pressed against Yu Nanyuan's chest began to flicker with a faint pink halo. With a complicated expression, he reached out his right hand and held the pendant, yet his tone was unusually calm as he asked Yu Zhen, "Grandpa, this pendant should have some connection to my mother's martial soul, right?"

The smile on Yu Zhen's face instantly faded, and his eyes were filled with pity. This was the first time Yu Nanyuan had asked him about his parents.

"Your mother came from a soul master sect with a long history, and she was of the direct bloodline of that sect master's line. This soul master sect was called the Earth Dragon Sect. The martial soul passed down through the Earth Dragon Sect's sect master line, the Rouge Dragon, is an especially powerful Sub-Dragon Martial Soul. The Rouge Dragon possesses a special annihilation attribute, enough to rival those True Dragon Martial Souls." After a long silence, Yu Zhen sighed softly. In these matters, he had never thought of hiding anything from Yu Nanyuan.

"The pendant on your chest is a Dragon Crystal left behind after a Rouge Dragon died. It is also the inheritance token of the Earth Dragon Sect's sect master line."

Unfortunately, the Earth Dragon Sect had long since declined, and this Dragon Crystal had already lost its symbolic meaning. However, the value of the Dragon Crystal itself was likewise immeasurable. Judging from the quality of this Dragon Crystal, it had at least been left behind by a ten-thousand-year Rouge Dragon. The crystallized power of a ten-thousand-year Sub-Dragon Soul Beast had always been an excellent material for producing high-level Soul Tools. It could even be embedded into Battle Armor to amplify the Battle Armor's abilities.

Yu Nanyuan gripped the Dragon Crystal tightly and remained silent. Before long, the Soul Guidance Car arrived at the Spirit Transfer Pagoda in Eastsea City.
