Douluo Continent, outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest. A world-shaking battle, one that should have gone down in history for ages to come, had already reached its end.
Huo Yuhao, the Son of Fortune who would one day become the Spirit Ice Douluo, God of Emotion, master of the Spirit Pagoda, and Tang San's lapdog, had now been beaten to his knees by a ten-year soul beast, a Wind Baboon.
One had to know that even on this path outside the Star Dou Great Forest, not far from its perilous depths, many low-level soul beasts still roamed.
If not for the protection of the Power of Fortune, Huo Yuhao might have ended up like those reckless Soul Masters who had ventured here before him—takeout for a fortunate soul beast.
In the distance, a white ten-year soul ring rose. It signified the fall of a future superstar of the soul beast world: the half-step Godslayer Wind Baboon had fallen.
And with the fall of this legendary soul beast, Huo Yuhao should have begun his future path filled with "legend" from this very moment onward.
But now, everything would become different. For some reason, after being knocked down by the Wind Baboon's power, Huo Yuhao never rose again.
At the same time, a spiritual radiance invisible to the naked eye descended from the Domain Outside the Realm into the Douluo Continent.
At the moment when this Son of Fortune of the Douluo Continent was at his weakest, it fell into his Sea of Consciousness.
Huo Yuhao's already fragile consciousness dissipated completely at that moment. Only his memories and lingering obsessions remained in his Spiritual Sea, proof that he had once existed.
Within the God Realm, Tang San, who had been sitting securely at the God Realm Committee and observing the lower realm's trajectory through the God Realm Core, suddenly felt his heart skip a beat.
A sense of foreboding abruptly rose in his heart. Yet after repeatedly investigating through the God Realm Core and finding nothing, he temporarily put the matter out of his mind.
Forget it. It may just be an illusion. Under my influence, the current master of the Tang Sect should have already made contact with the Son of Fortune of the Douluo Continent. Soon, very soon, my ten-thousand-year plan will begin!
Though he suppressed the joy in his heart, a faint smile still hung on Tang San's lips. At the same time, he was especially cautious.
To avoid leaving behind any traces of his dirty work for the God of Destruction to discover, he did nothing further to Douluo Star.
Huo Yuhao's condition was truly miserable. Several long bloody gashes had been left on each of his shoulders by the Wind Baboon's claws.
His shirt had nearly been torn to shreds. Lying face-down on the ground, his body instinctively but weakly gasped for breath. Frail to begin with, after suffering such injuries from the Wind Baboon, he was already incapable of getting back up.
And with an unfamiliar consciousness controlling this body, moving flexibly was even more difficult. He felt as though his entire body did not belong to him—or rather, it truly had never belonged to him in the first place.
Hiss, my head hurts so much. My vision is blurry. Damn it, I only stayed up all night once. Why does my body hurt this badly? I can barely breathe. What's going on? Why do I feel like I'm about to drop dead?
After pulling an all-nighter, the young man woke from his sleep and felt excruciating pain all over his body, especially in his back, chest, and abdomen.
The scenery before his eyes had also become a blurred mess of colors.
He struggled to open his eyes and tried to push himself up, only to abandon the idea because of the intense pain wracking his body.
The young man forced his eyes open as much as possible to inspect his surroundings. He tried to call for help, but no words came out.
Damn it, am I really going to die here? Move, damn it! Move!
If he had paid close attention, the young man would have realized that he was no longer in his original dormitory. Beneath the cold shade of trees, together with the injuries to his body, came the strange sensation caused by his steadily draining blood.
But he had no time to think deeply about it. After happily staying up all night gaming with his roommates, he had returned to the dormitory and slept soundly.
Yet now, he felt as if some unknown powerful creature had repeatedly ravaged every inch of his body.
Don't tell me I caught COVID? That shouldn't be it. I've heard that it can make your voice sound like a duck's, but I've never heard of it causing cataracts.
After struggling for a long while, the young man chose to lie still. This fragile and injured body simply could not withstand any more abuse.
Then, in his daze, the young man seemed to see a white-gold sphere of light in front of him, rapidly closing in at an astonishing speed.
Besides that, he only felt the pain in his head growing worse, as though someone had dunked his brain in water and thrown it into a washing machine's spin cycle. W-What is this? A hallucination?
The white-gold sphere of light approached and appeared before him. For some reason, it paused, then crashed straight into him. The young man immediately felt an extremely cold aura envelop him.
The pain he had felt throughout his body seemed to vanish. Then his vision blurred—or, more accurately, turned white. At last, the young man escaped that light-polluted field of vision and arrived in a pure white domain.
After entering this Spiritual Sea, the memories and lingering obsessions that had belonged to Huo Yuhao began to be absorbed by the young man, while this body began to accept the existence of his consciousness.
Outside, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm looked at the powerless youth lying on the ground and secretly grumbled.
"Did this kid get knocked stupid? Why isn't he reacting after Brother Sky Dream connected my Spiritual Power to him?"
"Forget it, forget it. Brother Sky Dream admits defeat. After all, he's the only suitable candidate around here. It's decided, kid. You have to hold on!"
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm then looked warily toward the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest. Those Fierce Beasts would probably discover his escape before long.
If he did not quickly become a Soul Master's Wisdom Soul Ring and conceal his aura to hide, he would be dead for sure if they caught him and dragged him back.
Unwilling but helpless, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm ultimately pressed his head against the youth's forehead.
Immediately afterward, the ten golden patterns on the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's body began to pulse rhythmically. After a series of operations,
the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm successfully sealed the vast energy and Spiritual Power contained within his body into Huo Yuhao's body.
The young man's injuries rapidly healed. The blood that had flowed from his wounds returned to his body, leaving only his damaged clothing unrepaired.
Likewise, countless creatures in the southern Star Dou Great Forest fell into a brief stupor due to the spiritual shock released by the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm during the fusion process to ensure safety.
At the same time, guided by the release of this powerful Spiritual Power and the Power of Fortune possessed by Huo Yuhao himself, his fated teacher, Electrolux, was also drawn here.
The previously clear sky darkened as a thunderous boom exploded high above.
Darkness blotted out the sun's radiance. More precisely, this darkness was actually torn space.
What followed was a suffocatingly immense pressure. Even some of the Fierce Beasts within the Star Dou Great Forest were overwhelmed by it. Only the Beast God Di Tian could remain conscious beneath this pressure.
"Roar! Divine might? But this does not seem to be power from the God Realm. A Deity from another world?"
With a cold snort, the colossal black dragon closed his golden eyes and continued sleeping. If a Deity from another world had arrived, then even if someone needed to worry, it should be the Deities of the God Realm.
He had only one goal: to protect the king of the soul beast race, await the Silver Dragon King's recovery and awakening, and lead the soul beasts to rule Douluo Star once more.
As for whether the God Realm would suffer any trouble due to the arrival of a Deity from another world, what did that have to do with Di Tian, the Golden-eyed Black Dragon King?
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, who was trying his best to carry Huo Yuhao, looked up at the sky and saw a stream of gray air descend from the deep black spatial rift.
Shock and confusion filled the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's eyes, for the level of this pressure and power had surpassed his understanding.
Even the Beast God Di Tian had never placed such immense pressure upon him. He had only felt an aura of this level from a certain existence deep within the Lake of Life.
In an instant, the gray stream descended onto the back of Huo Yuhao's head and quietly burrowed inside. Seeing this, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm flew into a rage, regardless of the other party's origins.
"What the hell dares steal someone from Brother Sky Dream?" The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm unleashed his powerful Spiritual Power and attempted to strike the gray stream.
A blurry figure emerged behind Huo Yuhao. Then an aged voice rang out with indescribable majesty: "With sun and moon in hand, stars plucked from the heavens, none in this world can compare to me."
"I never expected that even a trace of this old man's remnant soul could survive." Ignoring the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's spiritual assault and fury, Electrolux's figure entered the back of Huo Yuhao's head and vanished.
After all, to Electrolux, even if respect was due, it was due only to Huo Yuhao, who had provided a place for his remnant soul to reside.
As for the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm? Even with only a wisp of his remnant soul remaining, it would not be difficult for Electrolux to crush it to death. Though the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's Spiritual Power was vast and abundant, its level was nowhere near Electrolux's.
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's powerful Spiritual Power was effectively useless before Electrolux. If Electrolux wished to erase it, he only needed to use his Divine Sense to pry at it and could easily use the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's own Spiritual Power to crush it to death.
After entering Huo Yuhao's mind, Electrolux quieted down and transformed into a Gray Bead, falling into a corner of Huo Yuhao's Spiritual Sea to slowly recover.
Within his own Spiritual Sea, the young man also saw this foreign object.
"Wait, this Gray Bead..." After sorting through the memories and seeing the Gray Bead by his feet, the young man finally understood what had happened to him.
Damn, do I have to be this unlucky? I transmigrated at the exact moment when I can't do anything. Or maybe I'm lucky? Since Electrolux is here, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm should be coming too, right?
With no one else to disturb him, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm finally succeeded in sealing his power and his remains into Huo Yuhao's body.
He then successfully took up residence in Huo Yuhao's Spiritual Sea. Ten white-gold spheres and specks of faint golden light appeared within the formerly flawless white space, accompanied by a plump, somewhat adorable giant bug.
The ten white-gold spheres first stabilized themselves. Then, the floating points of light gradually settled below and gathered into a pale golden sea, which carried the ten enormous white-gold spheres.
"Eh? There's already a Spiritual Sea, and it's not small either. That saves me the trouble of expanding it."
"Wait, why can't I find this human's memories? Strange, they should be stored in the Spiritual Sea. Don't tell me he was really beaten stupid by that Wind Baboon? Does Brother Sky Dream have to be this miserable?"
Looking at the giant bug that had suddenly appeared before him, the young man—or rather, Huo Yuhao—twitched his lips and said, "Hey, giant bug, don't do strange things in someone else's Spiritual Sea!"
Hearing that, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm awkwardly turned around. Looking at the youth who seemed to have been waiting for him all along, he awkwardly rubbed his tiny insect legs together. "What giant bug? Brother Sky Dream is called Tianmeng! Sky Dream Ice Silkworm! From now on, you have to call me Brother Sky Dream!"
"Okay, Brother Sky Dream," Huo Yuhao replied obediently, while repeatedly chanting in his heart, Giant bug, giant bug, a fat and chubby giant bug.
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm seemed to have no reaction. He merely laughed smugly. "Hahaha, that's more like it! Brother Sky Dream is a dignified Million-Year Soul Beast. Follow me, and there'll be plenty of benefits for you in the future."
"Although your body is weak and your talent is poor, with Brother Sky Dream's million-year cultivation as your First Soul Ring, I'll definitely carry you to greatness in the future!"
Mm, it seems the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm can't know what I'm thinking. Maybe it's because of transmigration, or something else?
I'll test it later. As for Huo Yuhao's original memories, I must have absorbed them, so he can't find them. In any case, I should leave this place first. I can't gamble on everything going exactly like the original story and no unexpected danger appearing.
"I am—" Just as the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was about to say something else, the young man immediately interrupted him.
"Whatever you want to say, Brother Sky Dream, shouldn't we leave the Star Dou Great Forest first?"
"Let me leave the Spiritual Sea first. I don't want to become some soul beast's next meal." Huo Yuhao sighed.
His boasting interrupted, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm mulled it over and found that the other party did have a point. Unable to refute him, he muttered,
"What are you afraid of with Brother Sky Dream here? Even Di Tian—well, Di Tian won't work. But if a Ten-Thousand-Year Cultivation soul beast comes, Brother Sky Dream can still drive it away!"
