Yu Tianquan, Tang San (4K)

Deep within the Governor's Mansion in the Purple Blazing Dragon City, in a quiet room specially designed for the family's children to begin their cultivation, the atmosphere is far from "quiet."

A little boy, about six years old, was idly poking at a crystal ball in front of him that was used to test Soul Power.

He was born with exquisite features, soft, slightly curly silver hair, and extremely rare heterochromatic eyes. His left eye was ice-blue like ancient ice, while his right eye was purple-gold like hidden thunder. His eyes darted around nimbly, revealing a cleverness beyond his years. He was Yu Yuanchen's grandson, Yu Yunting, and the son of the Snow Empress — Yu Tianquan.

"Sigh, so boring..." Yu Tianquan sighed like a little adult, resting his chin on his hand, his short legs swinging on the chair. "Grandpa said he'd awaken my Martial Soul today, why isn't he here yet? Daddy and Mommy are the same, acting all mysterious this morning."

The "grandfather" he mentioned was naturally Yu Yuanchen. As for his parents, Yu Yunting and Snow Empress were standing on either side of him at the moment.

Yu Yunting remained as heroic and upright as ever. After achieving the Evil-Breaking Thunder Godhead, his aura became even more restrained and profound. However, when he looked at his son, there was always a hint of undisguised doting and... well, a little bit of barely perceptible "pressure" in his eyes.

After all, his beloved wife, the Snow Empress, had successfully inherited the God Position Ice God several years ago, and her strength had steadily surpassed his as her husband's, so their family status was subtly shifting.

The Snow Empress remained aloof and detached, but when she looked at her son, a rare tenderness would melt into her icy blue eyes. Her successful inheritance of the Ice God position caused quite a stir in the Divine Realm.

According to the rules of the Douluo Continent, all non-humanoid beings are classified as "Soul Beast," while the Divine Realm has an ironclad rule— Soul Beast cannot become gods.

This rule originated from the constraints set by the Dragon God after the ancient Dragon God War. It mainly targets the beast gods and their descendants under his command. Although the Dragon God's bizarre actions left everyone in the know as baffled as Louis XVI, it is normal for ordinary people not to understand such an amazing line of thought.

However, the Snow Empress's identity is extremely special. She is not an ordinary Soul Beast, but Ice and Snow Elf born from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the Extreme North. She is Elemental Spirit, and in terms of Life form, she is closer to the innate gods in the Divine Realm who are naturally born from the laws of heaven and earth, such as... the Five Great God Kings themselves!

If we forcibly classify spirits of heaven and earth like the Snow Empress into the category of "Soul Beast" and forbid them from His Majesty gods, how will the five non-human God King of the God Realm Committee put themselves in their place? Are they also "Soul Beast"? This would undoubtedly be a slap in the face to themselves.

(This isn't just made up. In the original story, the second-generation Godess of Kindness, Lie Yan, was a manifestation of a Earth-Core Red Lotus from the Earth's core. Although he was hunted down in the early stages, he later received support from the two God King of Goodness and Evil, and eventually became a god. Therefore, the Gods in the Divine Realm should only be wary of the Dragon God and his dragon Dragon Clan, and their suppression of other races is just a side effect.)

Moreover, the Five Great God Kings were well aware of the inside story that Soul Beast could not become gods. The Dragon God's prohibition mainly applied to the Primordial Dragon Realm, and the beasts prohibited from becoming gods were generally only the Dragon Clan and beasts belonging to the Primordial Dragon Realm. Elemental spirits like the Snow Empress, who were naturally born from a lower plane, were not within the scope of the Dragon God's original prohibition.

The Douluo Plane is too deeply influenced by the Dragon Clan, and its rules categorize all non-human intelligent beings as "Soul Beast," leading to the current predicament. If it were an ordinary lower realm elf, the Divine Realm's Enforcement Squad might turn a blind eye or even eliminate it directly for "usurpation."

But behind the Snow Empress stands Yu Yuanchen! This newly ascended being, who has condensed his own God King Rank and is on good terms with the two God King of Destruction and Life, is by no means a pushover to be easily manipulated.

Therefore, with Yu Yuanchen's reasoned arguments and the support of the Life God King Destruction and Life, the three God King Goodness, Evil, Asura, though displeased and unwilling to see Yu Yuanchen's faction gain another First-level Deity, had no choice but to reluctantly acknowledge the Snow Empress's identity as the "Elemental Spirit" and recognize the legitimacy of her God Position position.

This turmoil ultimately ended with the Snow Empress being officially registered Divine Registry, which once again demonstrated Yu Yuanchen's growing influence in the Divine Realm.

"Quan'er, be patient," Snow Empress said softly, her voice clear and cold as jade. "Your grandfather must have important business to attend to; he'll be there shortly."

Yu Yunting rubbed his son's head and laughed, "You little rascal, are you nervous? Your mother is the Ice God, and your father is a Thunder God. Today we'll see what kind of powerful Martial Soul you can awaken!" His tone was filled with pride and a hint of curiosity. Both he and the Snow Empress had extremely powerful bloodlines, so no one could say for sure what their son's Martial Soul would be like.

Yu Tianquan pouted. "I'm not nervous at all! Grandpa said I'm a genius! I was born that way!" He wasn't just bragging. As a direct descendant of two Spirit-level Expert, Yu Tianquan was born with an extremely high level of Life, possessing a near- God Level Life status from birth.

Without restrictions, attacks from ordinary Soul Sage and below wouldn't even scratch his skin, and non- God Level curses and poisons would be ineffective against him. If his Innate Soul Power were to awaken naturally, he would start at least at level 30!

However, Yu Yuanchen placed high hopes on his grandson, believing that an overly smooth start would hinder the tempering of his character and the understanding of the essence of power. Shortly after Yu Tianquan's birth, he personally took action, using his supreme divine power to seal away most of the excessively large Origin Power within his grandson's body.

In Yu Yuanchen's words, "Jade that is not carved cannot become a vessel. Let him rise from humble beginnings and experience the hardships of cultivation so that his foundation can be solid. Only then can he truly possess the potential to rival or even surpass us in the future, and be fearless in the face of any adversity or challenge."

However, even with most of his original essence sealed, the Thunder Sacred Dragon and Heavenly Snow Woman bloodlines flowing within Yu Tianquan's body were still like two unruly dragons, and as he grew older, they began to show signs of mutual repulsion.

Occasionally, when he gets emotionally agitated, frost will appear on the left side of his body, while tiny arcs of electricity will jump across the right side. Although this does not affect his health, it will inevitably affect his Martial Soul Awakening and future cultivation in the long run.

Therefore, Yu Yuanchen took out the dragon core left behind by the Silver Dragon Pill that had occupied the Sun Moon Continent and whose strength was close to the limit when he unified the continent and conquered all directions.

This Dragon Pill contains the power of Silver Dragon Silver Dragon, which is naturally endowed with a strong capacity for tolerance and control over all kinds of elements. Yu Yuanchen asked his wife, Ye Zhilan (the Plant God), to personally refine the Dragon Pill into a "Fusion Spirit Pill" using various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, which Yu Tianquan then consumed.

As the elixir entered his stomach, the gentle yet powerful Silver Dragon energy acted like the finest harmonizer, slowly seeping into the depths of his bloodline. It not only successfully soothed and fused the mutually repelling ice and lightning energies, but also further enhanced the quality of his bloodline, subtly imbuing it with the Silver Dragon's strong affinity for the elements. This filled his family with even greater anticipation for his soon-to-awaken Martial Soul.

"Squeak--"

The door to the quiet room was pushed open, Yu Yuanchen walked in slowly. He was still wearing a simple long robe, his aura was peaceful, as if he were one with the surrounding world, but his deep eyes, when they opened and closed, had an unparalleled majesty of ruling Yongzhen and creating a new world.

His Cultivation Level is now unfathomable; Yu Yunting and Snow Empress cannot see through it in the slightest. They only know that he has made unimaginable progress compared to ten years ago.

"Grandpa!" Yu Tianquan's eyes lit up, and he jumped off the chair and rushed over.

Yu Yuanchen smiled kindly and bent down to pick up his grandson, "I've kept Xiao Quan'er waiting. Come, let Grandpa see what kind of astonishing Martial Soul our Yu Family's Little Qilin will awaken today."

He carried Yu Tianquan and walked to the Awakening Array in the center of the meditation room. The array was made of precious soul-guided metal, with a large transparent crystal embedded in its center.

Yu Yunting and Snow Empress also became serious and watched intently.

Yu Yuanchen put Yu Tianquan down and said gently, "Quan'er, calm your mind and place your hands on the crystal. Use your heart to feel the power deep within your body."

Yu Tianquan nodded obediently, took a deep breath, and although he was young, he knew the importance of this matter under the influence of his family atmosphere. He stretched out his small hand and solemnly pressed it on the surface of the cool crystal ball.

Buzz--!

The moment his little hand touched the crystal, something unexpected happened!

The Awakening Array suddenly erupted with dazzling light! It wasn't a single color, but a swirling rainbow, as if countless Elemental Energy were cheering and leaping within it! The Heaven and Earth Origin Qi of the entire meditation room instantly boiled over!

Yu Tianquan's small body trembled slightly. A chilling aura visibly emanated from his left side, with ice crystals condensing in the air; his right side, on the other hand, erupted with fine, crackling arcs of Purple-Gold electricity! The power of ice and lightning manifested once more, but this time, it was not a simple confrontation!

Within the silvery-white light of awakening, a more noble and all-encompassing power emerged, like a mother's arm, gently encircling and harmonizing the icy blue and purple-gold energies. Gradually, the ice and lightning ceased their conflict and instead began to intertwine and merge in a mysterious trajectory!

"Roar--!"

A clear and majestic Dragon Roar seemed to come from ancient times, and resounded from the depths of the soul! Behind Yu Tianquan, a huge phantom rapidly condensed and solidified!

It was a dragon! A divine dragon whose entire body was covered in shimmering silver diamond-shaped scales! Its body was slender and elegant, yet it contained an explosive sense of power. Amidst the dazzling silver light, there were also specks of Purple-Gold scales, like stars scattered among them, especially on its forehead, back, and Dragon Claw, where the Purple Gold Scale were even denser, adding to its nobility and domineering aura.

The most peculiar thing about it is its eyes. Its left eye is ice blue and its right eye is purple-gold, exactly the same as Yu Tianquan's own heterochromatic eyes. When it opens and closes, it seems to convey the image of a world Ice Seal and thunder destroying the world!

The phantom of the Silver Dragon exuded a majestic Dragon Might, but this Dragon Might was not merely a suppression of bloodline; rather, it carried a vast and boundless Artistic Conception that encompassed all laws and the universe.

His control over ice and Lightning Element is particularly astonishing. Although his power is still immature due to his young age, his inherent strength has already surpassed the scope of ordinary super Beast Martial Soul!

Mutated Martial Soul — the Silver Dragon! Moreover, it is God-Tier Martial Soul that has been fused with the essence of the Thunder Sacred Dragon and the Heavenly Snow Woman, and sublimated through the power of the Silver Dragon!

"Excellent! What a magnificent Silver Dragon!" Yu Yunting couldn't help but cheer, his eyes filled with delight. The quality of this Martial Soul had definitely reached the level of God-Tier Martial Soul, with limitless potential!

Even the usually aloof Snow Empress showed a hint of amazement on her face, and nodded slightly. She could sense that her son's Silver Dragon Martial Soul's affinity for ice elements was no less than it had been before she became a god!

A hint of satisfaction flashed in Yu Yuanchen's eyes; everything was within his expectations and control. He reached out and gently pointed, and a gentle stream of chaotic energy flowed into the Awakening Array, helping Yu Tianquan stabilize the newly awakened Martial Soul phantom.

"Detect Innate Soul Power," Yu Yuanchen gestured.

Yu Tianquan followed his instructions and continued to pour his Soul Power into the crystal ball. Instantly, the crystal ball burst forth with a dazzling white light, the light steady and abundant, until it stopped at a certain point.

Innate Full Soul Power!

Although most of its origin was sealed, its extraordinary talent and Martial Soul still make it one of the top talents among those with Innate Full Soul Power!

"Haha! Good lad! You truly are worthy of being my son Yu Yunting!" Yu Yunting was overjoyed and clapped his hands vigorously.

Snow Empress also stepped forward, gently stroking her son's hair, her eyes filled with tenderness and pride.

Yu Tianquan withdrew his small hand, and the Silver Dragon phantom behind him slowly dissipated. He felt the Soul Power flowing within him, perfectly integrated with his Martial Soul, and his little face was full of excitement. "Grandpa, Daddy, Mommy! Is my Martial Soul powerful?"

"Amazing! Of course, amazing!" Yu Yunting picked up his son and lifted him high in the air. "He'll definitely be even more amazing than Daddy in the future!"

Yu Yuanchen smiled and said, "A deep foundation and limitless potential. Quan'er, remember, no matter how strong your Martial Soul is, you still need to cultivate diligently and continuously, and understand your true nature, in order to embark on the true path. From today onwards, you officially begin your journey as Soul Master."

"Yes, Grandpa! Quan'er remembers!" Yu Tianquan nodded vigorously, his heterochromatic eyes sparkling with boundless anticipation for the future.

While the Yu Family was basking in the joy of the birth of a genius, a completely different scene unfolded in a small town called Notting, far away in the southwestern border of the Douluo Continent.

In a simple courtyard in the west of the city, a little boy of about four years old, dressed in patched clothes, was squatting on the ground, carefully drawing some strange patterns with a twig. He had delicate features, but his eyes did not have the innocent and ignorant look of ordinary children; instead, they carried a hint of precociousness and calmness.

His name is Tang San. In name, he is the son of an ordinary woman in Nuoding City, and his father is unknown. Only a very few people know that his biological father is Tuoba Xi, the current head of the Tuoba Family Earth Dragon Family on the Douluo Continent.

Because his mother was of lowly status, merely an object of Tuoba Xi's one-night stand, he, as an illegitimate child, was not recognized by the family and could not even bear the surname "Tuoba." He could only take his mother's surname, Tang, and because his mother's Innate Soul Power was level three (which was also the thing she was most proud of in her life), he was named Tang San. However, after Tang San was born, Tuoba Xi would occasionally come to visit this orphan and widow.

The neighbors all thought the child was a bit strange; he didn't like to talk, always preferred to be alone, and would tinker with things they couldn't understand.

But what they didn't know was that deep within this seemingly ordinary child's soul lay memories from another world. Tang San himself believed that after an accidental death, he was fortunate enough to transmigrate to this world with magical Martial Soul, a second chance given to him by heaven.

Full of ambition, he secretly trained his body and honed his Hidden Weapon, relying on the memories and methods of the Tang Sect from his previous life, looking forward to the Martial Soul Awakening at the age of six and soaring to great heights.

However, he was unaware that his so-called "transmigration" was not accidental. His soul was a "pawn" carefully selected and placed into this world by the Asura God King.

The "Golden Sacred Dragon Bloodline Crystal," nourished by Yu Xiaogang's flesh and soul, had already quietly merged with the Asura God King's soul essence under his supreme divine power.

On the surface, he will be the successor chosen by the Asura God King, and the key to counterbalance and even overthrow the Yu Yuanchen lineage in the future.

The Asura Divine Sense, like a pair of invisible eyes, coldly watched the bewildered child in Nuoding City, and also gazed at the radiant Silver Dragon son in Purple Blazing Dragon City.

"Yu Yuanchen... your Silver Dragon grandson is indeed exceptionally talented, a true variable. However, my successor will also bear the blood of the Golden Dragon, and is no ordinary being. Ah, the struggle between the Silver Dragon, is this destiny, Dragon God..."

Yu Tianquan and Tang San, two children with drastically different destinies, were unaware that from the moment they were born, they had been drawn into a massive vortex that would determine the future of the world.

Their growth and their choices will profoundly influence the future of the Douluo Continent and even the Divine Realm.

Beneath the calm surface, the storm is quietly gathering its strength.
