From their positions, Lin Tian could roughly work out the hierarchy.
Without a doubt, the golden-eyed man closest to him, standing at the forefront of the group in a black robe with an imposing expression, held the highest status among them.
Next was the holy-looking woman standing at the black-robed man's side, slightly behind him. She wore an emerald-green gown, her long hair cascading down to her waist.
After that came a burly man around forty years old. He wore a black vest that exposed his muscular body.
Then there was a middle-aged man in a dark green robe, carrying a faint scent of wood.
There was also a seductive-looking young woman. Lin Tian's gaze lingered on her the longest, because her entire body was covered in fine scales, while a broad expanse of snowy-white skin was exposed at her chest.
Lin Tian reluctantly shifted his gaze away and looked toward the red-haired burly man. Dressed in a bright red combat outfit, he was especially eye-catching.
Standing at the very back was an eerie young man in a black combat outfit, handsome in appearance.
The moment Lin Tian hatched, a faint dragon's might spread out. However, everyone present was a powerful ferocious beast. The dragon's might emitted by a young dragon that was not even a ten-year Soul Beast could naturally be ignored.
Yet upon sensing that dragon's might, the ferocious beasts were all startled. The bloodline of this young dragon before them was absolutely no weaker than Di Tian's.
Among them, the seductive young woman Zi Ji felt it most clearly. Her true form was the Hell Demon Dragon King, and as a fellow dragon, the pressure she endured was far greater than that of the other Soul Beasts.
She had never felt such dense dragon's might from Di Tian. Perhaps only their Lord could suppress him.
Zi Ji decided that in the future, she would definitely keep her distance from Lin Tian and never cross paths with him.
"Everyone, disperse. I'm taking him to see our Lord," Di Tian said with a wave of his hand.
The more Lin Tian looked at the seven people before him, the more familiar they seemed... He appeared to know what sort of world he was in.
Combined with their clothing and the "Lord" mentioned by the leading man,
he had probably transmigrated into the world of Douluo Continent. The golden-eyed Di Tian, the holy Bi Ji, the rebellious Xiong Jun, the wood-scented King of Myriad Demons, the seductive Zi Ji, the Three-Headed Red Demon Mastiff radiating scorching heat, and the strange yet handsome Yao Ling.
Lin Tian no longer knew whether this was good or bad. The good news was that he did not need to worry about being erased for lacking inherited memories. The bad news was that he had transmigrated into a Soul Beast, and the God Realm had explicit rules stating that Soul Beasts could not become gods.
Couldn't he still take human form? If he had no divine inheritance, he could just gather faith and create his own divine position.
Lin Tian comforted himself inwardly.
Then he thought of another serious question. What era was this?
"Douluo I, Douluo I, Douluo I..."
"Don't let it be Douluo II, don't let it be Douluo II, don't let it be Douluo II..."
"Even before Douluo I would be fine. Just don't let it be after Tang San became a god."
He prayed inwardly. If this was Douluo II, then he had truly started in hell mode.
While Lin Tian was praying, Di Tian had already brought him beneath the Lake of Life, to the space where Gu Yuena was recovering from her injuries.
Looking ahead, he saw a breathtaking young woman about seventeen or eighteen years old sitting atop an icy bed. She had silver hair and purple eyes.
Lin Tian swore that she was absolutely the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. In his previous life, as the son of a wealthy family, he had seen quite a few women considered peerless beauties, yet none of them could compare to even one ten-thousandth of the girl before him.
Gu Yuena, in human form, looked at the black dragon floating beside Di Tian, her eyes carrying a trace of scrutiny.
"He does not belong to this world, nor does he belong to the God Realm."
After scrutinizing him for a moment, Gu Yuena spoke calmly.
Gu Yuena's shocking words nearly frightened Lin Tian into falling to the ground. Fortunately, he steadied himself in time and flew about the space at random like an ordinary, unawakened Soul Beast.
Di Tian asked, "Then, my Lord, will he become a source of aid for the revival of the Soul Beast race?"
Hearing Di Tian's words, Lin Tian's heart rose to his throat. He did not doubt in the slightest that if Gu Yuena said no, Di Tian would immediately crush him to death.
"That transcendent divine power bears no malice. It merely sent this little fellow to our side. He will surely become an indispensable force in our revival of the Soul Beast race."
Gu Yuena said this with a rare smile. She extended her slender, fair hand, drew Lin Tian over, and gently stroked him.
"This little fellow's attributes are very similar to yours. From now on, you will guide him."
After carefully sensing Lin Tian's attributes, Gu Yuena instructed Di Tian.
"Yes, my Lord."
Di Tian had long noticed Lin Tian's attributes: darkness and annihilation. They were indeed extremely similar to his own.
Just as Gu Yuena gently stroked Lin Tian, a seven-colored mark appeared atop his dragon head.
"My Lord!"
Di Tian cried out in alarm.
"It is nothing. My injuries will not heal anytime soon anyway. It is merely one use of the Silver Dragon Blessing on him; it will do no harm."
Silver Dragon Blessing?
Lin Tian enjoyed Gu Yuena's caress as he pondered inwardly. He seemed never to have heard of this blessing and had no idea what it did.
But he soon found out. Within his body, in addition to his original ultimate darkness and ultimate annihilation attributes, he sensed six more elemental powers belonging to Gu Yuena.
After doing all this, Gu Yuena seemed even weaker. Even her originally fair skin had turned sickly pale.
"I need to heal now. Take this little fellow out," Gu Yuena said, returning to her form as a silver giant dragon while speaking in human language.
"Yes."
Di Tian took Lin Tian and brought him away from the bottom of the Lake of Life.
After Di Tian left, the Silver Dragon King spoke again. "I hope you will lead the Soul Beast race back to the God Realm."
There was one extremely important matter she had not told Di Tian. Lin Tian actually carried a seal within him, one that restrained most of his bloodline power.
What he had displayed now was only one-third of his total bloodline power. Even so, it was already on par with her own. One could imagine how potent his bloodline would be without that seal. Perhaps not even the Dragon God of old could compare to him.
With that, the Silver Dragon King slowly closed her eyes and once more fell into slumber to recover from her injuries.
Above the Lake of Life.
The moment he left that space, Lin Tian's stomach began to growl, reminding him of something.
After hatching, dragons seemed to eat their own eggshells. He had been so focused on observing the Seven Great Ferocious Beasts that Di Tian had taken him away.
My egg!
Lin Tian roared toward the heavens in his heart.
Di Tian seemed to understand Lin Tian's meaning. From somewhere, he took out Lin Tian's eggshell and placed it beside the Lake of Life.
Seeing this, Lin Tian swiftly flew over. Yet when he reached the eggshell, he fell into deep thought.
"Can I really eat an eggshell this hard?"
For things he could not understand, he would find out by trying his teeth.
Lin Tian slowly moved forward. His sharp fangs easily bit off a small piece of the shell. After carefully chewing it for a moment, his eyes lit up, and he could no longer restrain himself from ravenously devouring it.
During that time, he did not forget to take a taste of the water from the Lake of Life.
