As Dragon Soul helped the little one forge a new Dragon Slave, he sensed a shift in fate beneath the spring. The corners of his mouth rose unconsciously. The little one truly was just as he had expected.

"Hehe. This is getting more and more interesting." Dragon Soul thought, though his fingers never stopped moving. He was hesitating over what gender to make this Dragon Slave.

Wait!!!

Dragon Soul seemed to recall the little one mentioning that there were Dragon Bones and Dragon Souls of two dragons at the bottom of the spring. Now that was a little interesting.

He immediately gave up on forging this divine soul, feeling it would be better to wait until the little one came out before deciding.

The little one disliked this divine soul, and he disliked it a little too. He had no idea why. He simply despised it from the bottom of his heart.

Tang San's Divine Soul: .

Am I even human? You're just giving up on me like that?

Do you people have any respect for Lord Tang San at all?

Seeing Dragon Soul suddenly stop, Moyan asked in confusion, "Why did you stop?"

"Compared to this Dragon Soul, I think the two down below are more suitable."

Dragon Soul explained that he intended to use this divine soul as the medium for this place. Then, once the little one and his Dragon Slave came out, he would capture the two barely clinging to life below and refine them.

As he spoke, he pointed at the waters of the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well.

Moyan glanced at the ice-and-fire spring water, then at Tang San, whose refinement had stopped halfway through. In the blink of an eye, the guy had already become neither human nor ghost.

Forget it. It had nothing to do with her.

No longer looking at Tang San's ghostly divine soul, she asked Dragon Soul, "Some of these immortal herbs are poisonous. Is there any way to purify them?"

"When the time comes, have the little one use Dragon Soul to alter them. Dragon Soul can not only alter people, but also plants and the Soul Beasts of this world." After answering Moyan's question, Dragon Soul sat down, propping his chin up with one hand. His golden eyes gazed at the placid lake as he waited for the little one and his Dragon Slave to emerge.

"Is there no cost?"

Moyan did not believe that doing something like this came without a price. Creating a Dragon Slave had nearly killed the original body. She did not believe altering plants would have no consequences.

"This time, the little one has an enormous amount of fate. Nothing unexpected will happen," Dragon Soul explained. "As long as his fate and Soul Power Level can hold out, nothing unexpected will happen."

"But I should still remind you: don't let the little one keep messing around. One day, he'll gamble himself away." After thinking it over, Dragon Soul decided to warn Moyan.

Otherwise, if the little one gambled himself away again someday, there truly would be no one left to save him.

"Ah..." Hearing Dragon Soul's warning, Moyan fell silent for a moment, then said helplessly, "He's a damned gambler. He won't listen to me at all."

"Then beat him up. That sickly, weak little guy—can't you even beat him?"

Dragon Soul mischievously egged Moyan on. The little one's physical condition was truly frail. He could tell that with just a little force, the little one would probably die on the spot.

Tian Mucheng:

Moyan: "I don't dare!"

"Ha."

Beneath the Ice Fire Spring.

The moment Xiao Xue opened her eyes, she had completely broken through to level ninety. Seeing Tian Mucheng examining her with great interest, a faint blush appeared on her cold face. She immediately scooped up Lord Saint and swam upward, not daring to look at him even once along the way.

"They're coming up."

Sensing the two approaching, Dragon Soul immediately rose to his feet. He glanced at Moyan, who had entered a cultivation state beside him, then thought for a moment before giving the little one a buff.

Holding Tian Mucheng, Xiao Xue flew out of the spring. Upon reaching the shore, she reluctantly set Lord Saint down from her arms. As for the water on their bodies, she had long since removed it with her ice.

"Little one, how was it?" Dragon Soul approached the two of them and asked curiously.

Meeting Dragon Soul's golden eyes, Tian Mucheng answered calmly, "It was much easier than before."

That was the truth. Tian Mucheng's body had once been so sickly that it was unbearable. Using even his first or second soul skill would nearly drain all his Soul Power.

Things were much better now. His Soul Power would no longer be drained completely as it had before.

Dragon Soul looked Tian Mucheng over from head to toe. Seeing that the little one's body had indeed improved greatly, he was quite happy for him as well.

The world's rejection was no small matter. He himself was currently suffering the rejection of this world, so he needed to hurry with what he had to do.

"Little one, for my next opportunity, I want to do this."

Dragon Soul explained the plan he had just conceived to Tian Mucheng. This method could be called the optimal solution.

Tang San's Divine Soul would serve as the medium and space that opened this place, while the two divine souls beneath the spring would serve as guardians and keys. It was the most perfect solution.

However, there was still a certain risk. It would be fine if the two Dragon Souls were refined into Dragon Slaves without the God Realm discovering it, but if they were discovered, trouble would be endless. Dragon Soul still left the choice to the little one.

This world was the little one's home ground. He had no right to interfere with the little one's thoughts.

Tian Mucheng thought for a moment, then nodded and agreed to Dragon Soul's plan. "Let's do it according to your method, Senior."

"I knew I hadn't misjudged you."

The instant his words fell, Dragon Soul sprang into action like lightning. With a flash, he arrived above the mysterious spring in the blink of an eye. At that moment, his body radiated a strange and powerful aura, as though strength from another world were continuously surging out from within him.

In an instant, deafening thunderous roars rang out. Countless chains of brilliant colors and varied forms burst fiercely from the void like dragons emerging from the sea!

Some chains gleamed with dazzling golden light, some shone with deep blue radiance, while others gave off eerie purple mist... They hurtled toward the bottom of the spring at astonishing speed. Wherever they passed, black rifts were torn through space itself, as though the entire world trembled before them.

Seeing those chains, Tian Mucheng felt a vague stir within his heart. Yet the thought had barely surfaced before he immediately dismissed it.

It was better not to think about those matters at this stage. Once he became stronger in the future, he would naturally learn the answers.

Seeing the terrifying being above them, even more frightening than Lord Tang San, the immortal herbs shoved their heads straight into the soil and began deceiving themselves.

Seeing the powerful Dragon Soul in the sky, Xiao Xue fell silent for a moment before saying to Tian Mucheng beside her, "I'm sorry, Lord Saint. Back then, I..."

"It's all right." Tian Mucheng knew what Xiao Xue wanted to say. He waved a hand, telling her there was no need to continue. "I saw the urgency and worry in your eyes very clearly back then."

"Thank you for caring, Xiao Xue."

Seeing the sunlight-like smile on Tian Mucheng's face, Xiao Xue blushed and lowered her head, not daring to meet his gaze. Lord Saint was truly... so gentle.
