He could only see whether he could successfully reincarnate two of them.

In any case, Long Yeyue's one soul with two forms had directly manifested.

And whether it was Yun Ming or Long Yeyue, Lin Ming had never intended to reincarnate either of them as humans.

For one thing, the Reincarnation Tower currently had no means of forcibly controlling or binding souls. If he reincarnated them as humans, he might end up creating two more enemies for himself. He was not that stupid.

Lin Ming reckoned that the Reincarnation Tower would need at least a few of its later floors unlocked before it could acquire the ability to form contracts. For now, its main principles were equivalent exchange and free reincarnation.

Giving them Soul Beast bodies to reincarnate into was already an enormous favor.

He also very much wanted to see how Yun Ming's and Long Yeyue's mindsets would change after turning from humans into Soul Beasts.

Would they keep insisting they were human? Or would they join the Soul Beasts' camp from then on and oppose humanity?

He was quite curious about that.

As for what kind of Soul Beasts the two would become, that would have to be determined by their Martial Souls.

In fact, he had a bold idea:

After a human soul reincarnated as a Soul Beast, could it still awaken a Martial Soul? If so, would that not defy the heavens?

Even just to verify this conjecture, he had to reincarnate the two of them as Soul Beasts.

He really was curious.

Yun Ming's Martial Soul was the Sky-Piercing Spear, so he would at least need hands. Otherwise, he would not be able to wield a spear properly.

Therefore, Lin Ming would prioritize a monkey or ape Soul Beast for his reincarnation. At least he would be able to grip a spear.

As for Long Yeyue, Lin Ming had many more ideas for her.

He remembered that Long Yeyue seemed to be a descendant of Yu Xiaogang, and her Saint Dragon Martial Soul had also been inherited from Yu Xiaogang's line.

Although she was bizarre, her talent was indeed quite good, and her ability to drain old men was no slouch either. She had directly drained the previous Shrek Pavilion Master's cultivation dry, becoming a Limit Douluo after receiving his empowerment.

Long Yeyue had the Radiant Sacred Dragon and Dark Sacred Dragon Martial Souls. Was that not just Luo Sanpao?

He could make a Radiant Luo Sanpao and a Dark Luo Sanpao, getting her two pigs to try out. If it succeeded, she could be considered to have inherited Yu Xiaogang's dying wish.

Soul Beasts could reincarnate into animals, because they shared the same origin. After all, Soul Beasts had evolved from animals.

But human souls could only reincarnate into Soul Beasts. Ordinary animals were not an option.

Fortunately, although the Soul Beast Clan had been wiped out, its extinction was not complete. There were still Soul Beasts raised by humans.

These top powers all had a habit of keeping Soul Beasts, and they also had quite a few breeding farms.

Pig Soul Beasts and monkey or ape Soul Beasts were all very common, very low-ranking Soul Beasts. The continent had plenty in reserve, and anyone with money could get them.

Having planned everything out, Lin Ming directly summoned the Reincarnation Tower and began devouring Di Tian's Dragon Soul energy, as well as the Soul Core energy within his body.

Together with all the pure energy on the ground, it was all swallowed into the Reincarnation Tower for storage.

The Reincarnation Tower could store this energy, allowing him to draw on it whenever he needed it.

While converting the energy, Lin Ming looked toward the Myriad Demon King beside him and spoke calmly:

"Myriad Demon King."

"Your subordinate is here."

The Myriad Demon King stiffened all over and hurriedly bowed in salute, his attitude exceedingly respectful.

"Set out immediately for the human cities near the Star Dou Great Forest. In their Black Markets, find me a slave around six years old who hasn't awakened a Martial Soul, along with an ape Soul Beast and two pig Soul Beasts.

"Does the Star Dou Great Forest have any?" Lin Ming asked in turn.

Upon hearing this, the Myriad Demon King immediately answered:

"Yes, but we only protect Soul Beasts with extremely powerful bloodlines."

"Then forget it. I don't need powerful bloodlines. I only need the trashiest ones."

What a joke. If he gave them powerful bloodlines to start with, would that not let them have the time of their lives?

That would not do.

"Then your subordinate will go at once."

"Go.

"Choose a slave child with a family background, one whose ancestors clearly had a powerful Martial Soul. Preferably one burdened with a blood feud.

"In short, pick the best possible body for Di Tian to start with.

"As for the Soul Beasts, choose the worst. Do you understand what I mean? I have no other requirements. Just be quick."

A superstar start, right from the outset.

"Yes, My Lord.

"I'll be sure to bring you both the person and the Soul Beasts."

"Mm, go."

Lin Ming nodded, then continued gulping down energy like a whale.

Between him and the Golden Dragon King, one frantically devoured flesh and blood like a demon, while the other devoured Di Tian's Soul Ring and energy.

Di Tian felt little about the sight, but Xiong Jun and the Scarlet King found it distinctly uncomfortable to watch-these two fellows were practically demons.

Time hurried by, and a day and a night passed just like that.

After Lin Ming and the Golden Dragon King's sleepless devouring and refining, Di Tian's Dragon Corpse, thousands of zhang long, had completely disappeared, leaving only an enormous skeleton. Not even half a drop of dragon blood remained; everything had been sucked clean.

At this moment, the golden light flowing around the Golden Dragon King, who hovered beside Lin Ming, grew ever more brilliant.

His originally feeble draconic might became immensely powerful, no longer hollow and insubstantial as before. An overbearing bloodline aura originating from the Dragon God spread outward.

The Golden Dragon King stretched his small golden dragon wings, golden patterns flowing around him. His bloodline foundation had already recovered by at least 15%.

At the same time, Lin Ming immediately sensed an exceptionally mysterious connection between himself and the Golden Dragon King, and his cultivation speed increased by 15% as well.

It seemed the Golden Dragon King had told the truth. There really was a bonus.

This 15% cultivation bonus was nothing outrageous. To him at present, it was merely better than nothing, but its advantage lay in its stability. And as time passed, the more flesh and blood the Golden Dragon King devoured and the more he purified, the better things would get.

Right now, the Golden Dragon King was quite happy, swaying his head with an utterly blissful expression. He even started moonwalking in the air.

"That feels good. So good.

"Just devouring one Di Tian restored 15% of my bloodline.

"At this rate, as long as I devour a few more top-tier Soul Beasts, it won't be long before I completely restore my bloodline, regain my peak strength, and return to that supreme throne of the Golden Dragon King.

"Once I recover all my strength, I'll follow the spatial turbulence back there and slaughter all those gods.

"Eat every last one of them!"

"Keh heh heh!"

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. His little body tumbled back and forth in the air, golden light continually bursting around him, fully displaying a sovereign's imposing presence.

Meanwhile, Lin Ming's energy absorption was also drawing to a close. Without a system or a status panel, he had no precise numerical tally.

However, his soul was deeply bound to the Reincarnation Tower, so he naturally had a clear sense of it.

Di Tian's top-tier Soul Ring, Dual Soul Cores, and all the energy in his body, along with these heavenly treasures, had all been devoured and converted.

At this moment, within the Reincarnation Tower's core space, a full thirty translucent Energy Crystals had condensed, a terrifying luster flowing through them.
