Target: Conquer the Sun Moon Empire with the Silver Dragon King!

"During my slumber, I heard that the Saintess had made quite a move, leading all the Soul Masters of the Tang Sect's Four Sects away from the greatest sect painstakingly established by the Sea God, traveling thousands of miles to settle temporarily in the Depths of Star Dou Great Forest?"

Hearing about it was not the same as hearing the person involved recount it firsthand. Having only just recovered, Gu Yuena was eager to stretch her stiff body and add a bold, vivid stroke to the soul beast race's revival plan.

Otherwise, ten years, a hundred years, or even a thousand years from now, she would be consumed by guilt for not helping her people achieve revival, speed up the process, and lend them a hand.

Thus, having obtained a portion of the Goddess of Life's origin power and healed most of the old injuries within her body, Gu Yuena's warlike nature from the Dragon God's lineage had been awakened. She wanted to offer help during the early stages of the soul beast race's development.

Lin Wan'er understood Gu Yuena's unspoken meaning. Nodding, she looked as though she fully expected the other woman to become a qualified tool, and said excitedly, "Since Sister Dragon King is awake and able to move around, why not take a trip to the Sun Moon Empire and promote the idea that Soul Guidance Devices can be most effective when used for mutual benefit between soul beasts and Soul Masters?"

"What is a Soul Guidance Device?"

Gu Yuena's purple eyes were clear and limpid. Especially when a trace of confusion appeared in her gaze after asking that question, she gave off an irresistibly endearing air.

At the very least, Lin Wan'er's heart was struck by the adorably clueless Silver Dragon King. She nearly could not stop herself from reaching out to stroke the silly tuft of silver hair atop her head.

Hold it in, hold it in. They were not familiar enough yet. Build a good relationship first—one day, she would get to touch Gu Yuena's smooth, silky silver hair!

Suppressing her excitement, Lin Wan'er cleared her throat and began explaining the future role of Soul Guidance Devices to Gu Yuena. At the same time, afraid that the Dragon King who had just awoken would not understand, she specifically dragged over Di Tian, who had been standing nearby as background decoration.

"Simply put, Soul Guidance Devices are artificial tools made by carving Core Arrays onto rare metals and gemstones."

"Soul Guidance Devices are generally divided into three major categories: Melee Soul Guidance Devices, long-range Soul Guidance Devices, and fixed-installation Soul Guidance Devices. There are also other kinds, such as storage Soul Guidance Devices and humanoid Soul Guidance Devices."

"After obtaining precious Soul Guidance Devices, Soul Masters can refine and inscribe them to upgrade and strengthen them, granting them greater power."

Listening to this explanation of Soul Guidance Devices that sounded like a heavenly book, Gu Yuena could not understand why Lin Wan'er, as the Soul Beast Saintess, was so interested in Soul Guidance Devices made by human Soul Masters. She had even developed a coexistence plan integrating soul beasts, Soul Masters, and Soul Guidance Devices! As a product of the Dragon God's division, Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena's intelligence and comprehension were unquestionably among the very best of the soul beast race, yet even she did not dare pound her chest and guarantee to the world that soul beasts and Soul Masters could one day truly coexist and rely upon each other.

Yet Saintess Lin Wan'er, who was still so young and not especially powerful, not only dared to guarantee it with a pat of her chest, but had even brought in Soul Guidance Devices from who knew where...

Seemingly sensing Gu Yuena's resistance toward Soul Guidance Devices, Lin Wan'er pondered for a moment before giving an answer that neither of the two dragons present could refuse.

"The Auspicious Beast once received an insight: within the next century, after the Sun Moon Empire collided with Douluo Continent, the Sun Moon Empire's advanced Soul Guidance Devices would spread across Douluo Continent. This would lead to the rapid development of Soul Guidance Devices there and give rise to the concept of 'Soul Engineers.'

"From then on, Douluo Continent would establish a Soul Guidance Technology System based on Soul Guidance Devices. This would negatively impact the Tang Sect's Hidden Weapons and cause the Tang Sect to enter a period of decline."

"This decline will be fatal. Compared with the momentary pain of the Four Sects leaving, this will be a slow poison that clings to the Tang Sect's marrow until they recognize the truth: Hidden Weapons may be deadly, but they absolutely cannot compare to the Soul Guidance Devices that will dominate the continent!"

"You should have said that earlier. If Soul Guidance Devices can truly cause the sect founded by the Sea God to vanish, then perhaps the soul beast people, with their long lifespans, will be willing to borrow external help and assist the Sun Moon Empire in accelerating the use of Soul Guidance Devices."

Gu Yuena, who had been listening intently to the Saintess's speech, admitted that she was tempted. If the Auspicious Beast's prophecy and the future envisioned by the Saintess were true, then the Tang Sect's decline was inevitable.

The things that would dominate the battlefield in the future would no longer be Soul Masters, but the Sun Moon Empire with its Soul Guidance Devices and soul beasts! No, that was wrong! The Sun Moon Empire belonged to their soul beast race!

Filled with surging excitement, Gu Yuena waved her little hand, and Di Tian's body shot into the air before landing in front of the silver-haired girl.

Di Tian: ...? Lin Wan'er: Pfft.

Co-Lord? Is your brain all right? That sudden move nearly scared my true body out of me.

Sensing Lin Wan'er's feelings, Beast God Di Tian experienced a complicated mix of emotions, though his expression remained unchanged.

His cold face and slightly furrowed brows made Gu Yuena feel irritated. Raising her hand, she said, "Where is the Sun Moon Empire? I'm going there myself!"

Thinking of the tragic deaths of the soul beast people of Star Dou Great Forest at the hands of Tang Sect Hidden Weapons over the years, Gu Yuena wished she could teleport directly to the Sun Moon Empire, grab a little whip, find the Soul Masters responsible for making Soul Guidance Devices, and whip them into speeding up the process so that the damned Tang Sect would fall into decline sooner.

"Co-Lord, this matter must still be discussed carefully. We do not yet know whether gods such as the Sea God in the God Realm are observing Star Dou Great Forest. If you go out rashly, you may..."

"What's so difficult about that? Just have Sister Dragon King change her appearance and make herself look even younger than me."

Compared with Beast God Di Tian's constant worries that some god wanted to harm him, her, or everyone else, Lin Wan'er was more open-minded and optimistic.

Now that Star Dou Great Forest had the Emperor Willow, and the Goddess of Life had bestowed a God Trial upon her, the Soul Beast Saintess.

The content of the first trial had already been absurdly lenient, and it had even reminded her of certain precautions—be careful of the Sea God focusing his attention on the Spirit of Nature and the Auspicious Beast. This showed that her arrival had changed the fate that had originally been set in stone.

Therefore, when Gu Yuena, who had regained the ability to act and was mostly healed, went to the Sun Moon Empire, she only needed to carefully conceal the Dragon King's aura and avoid exposing her unusual Soul Power too openly. There would basically be no other problems.

After all, no god knew what the Silver Dragon King actually looked like, whether she was male or female. To investigate her, they would need a suspect and sound evidence.

Otherwise, the God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life in the God Realm would not allow the Sea God to abuse his authority, casually spy on the lower realm, and alter its normal operation without restraint.

After Lin Wan'er explained her thoughts to Di Tian and Gu Yuena, she once again received verbal praise from the silver-haired Dragon King. "Compared to Di Tian, the Saintess's thinking suits my tastes better. Why don't we head to the Sun Moon Empire together shortly and see for ourselves exactly how Soul Guidance Devices are made?"
