In the Star Dou Great Forest.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion blinked its innocent-looking eyes, its divine pupils reflecting the varied expressions of the people around it.
The little Auspicious Beast, a beat slower than the start, finally Frisk that something was amiss in the surrounding atmosphere.
It seems like everyone is looking at her.
After confirming this fact, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion broke free from Lin Mo's grasp, ending its enjoyment with a regretful expression, and suppressing its desire to expose its belly.
She took a light half-step back and returned to the Scarlet King's side.
But her Fluffy tail was still swaying behind her unconsciously, and then she quickly pressed it down herself.
Be reserved, you absolutely must be reserved!
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion thought to itself.
Lin Mo stood up and withdrew his hand with a regretful expression.
This big cat feels so nice to touch, so Fluffy. It's a shame I probably won't have a chance to pet it again anytime soon.
"Humans!"
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion suddenly fixed its three pupils on Lin Mo, and a remarkably pleasant female voice questioned, "How dare you rashly set foot in the Star Dou Great Forest!"
However, her evasive gaze and clearly weak voice ultimately betrayed her guilty conscience.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion didn't know why it had such trust in this suddenly appearing human.
She trusted him so much that she allowed him to touch her precious fur!
Bewitched!
I must have been influenced by this human's abilities!
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion comforted itself in this way.
Thinking of this, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion glanced at the Charizard on the other side, and a new idea popped into her mind.
Perhaps I was simply expressing my gratitude for the dragon beast's earlier act of providing me with food.
Only then did they allow this human to touch them.
She could sense that the dragon and the human were one.
He felt extremely close to this dragon beast, even closer than he felt to Di Tian.
That must be why I let my guard down!
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion began to cheer itself on in its heart!
She tried to make her expression look more serious.
"Relax."
Lin Mo rolled his eyes at the Scarlet King not far away. "If I really wanted to make a move on this little one, do you think a protector like you, who's always a step behind, could save her from me?"
Upon hearing Lin Mo's words, the three enormous heads of the Scarlet King all displayed the same look of embarrassment.
Perhaps it had been too comfortable for too long, and it had indeed neglected to take care of the Auspicious Beast.
So much so that when the auspicious Auspicious Beast encountered an accident before, it was unable to arrive in time.
Judging from the current situation, even if it were to arrive, it would be in vain.
Of the seemingly human-dragon combination before it, the only one it could recognize and discern the strength of was the Snow Empress.
As for the remaining human and dragon, it couldn't even sense their true strength.
However, judging from the fact that the Auspicious Beast offered no resistance and was easily captured by this human, his true strength is probably even more exaggerated than he imagined.
Before long, the Scarlet King shielded the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, the Emperor Auspicious Beast that had come running back on its own, with its "huffing and puffing" sounds, behind him.
After doing all this, some of his worries subsided.
It looked at Lin Mo and asked again, "Human, who exactly are you? What brings you to the Star Dou Great Forest?"
"They can't just come here to hunt Soul Beast for food, can they?"
The Scarlet King voiced the question that had been lingering in his mind.
The aroma of roasted meat still lingered in the air.
With its keen sense of smell as a 300,000-year-old canine Soul Beast, it could easily distinguish that the Soul Beast that had been eaten was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
Moreover, it appears to be Golden Hawksbill Turtle, a rare find among Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
In terms of auspiciousness alone, the Golden Hawksbill Turtle is second only to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion Emperor Auspicious Beast behind it, among all the Soul Beast.
In the past, this behavior would have been no less serious than the time when humans hunted Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in the Star Dou Great Forest, provoking their wrath.
That's enough to trigger another beast tide!
However, he was the only Ferocious Beast present at the moment.
In addition, his most important task now is to ensure that this little rascal returns safely.
He didn't want any unnecessary complications.
Although that was what he thought, the Scarlet King still looked at Lin Mo again, his six eyes fixed on him, feigning Rage as he said:
"Human, do you intend to unilaterally break the agreement between you humans and us Star Dou Ferocious Beast?"
Hearing this, Lin Mo was stunned for a moment.
But he quickly remembered what the Scarlet King was referring to.
This was a beast tide triggered by the formidable achievements of the Body Sect in the past.
Many years ago, members of the Body Sect infiltrated the Star Dou Great Forest and killed seven Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in one fell swoop.
This directly provoked the wrath of the Soul Fighting Beasts, led by Di Tian, triggering a beast tide.
After several rounds of friction, the human side, led by Shrek and the Body Sect, reached an agreement with the Douluo I.
Since then, members of the Body Sect have stopped entering the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
"Don't overthink it. I already said I mean you no harm." Lin Mo raised his hand expressionlessly and slapped the Scarlet King.
The Scarlet King, who had been trying to remain calm and cheer himself up, suddenly felt an incomparable force descend from the sky, pinning him down.
His limbs were crushed, and his entire body lay face down on the ground, unable to move.
You're going to die!
I'm sure I'll die!
At that moment, immense despair rose in the Scarlet King's heart.
But... this feeling is like an illusion, it comes and goes quickly.
The immense force that had enveloped him vanished without a trace the next moment.
The Scarlet King lay on the ground, panting heavily. At that moment, the six eyes on his three heads all showed the same expression of relief at surviving a calamity.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion standing behind it looked completely bewildered.
She had no idea why the Scarlet King, who had just been speaking harshly to Lin Mo, had suddenly collapsed to the ground like a drowning dog.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion cautiously poked its head out, looked at the Scarlet King, and then looked up at Lin Mo, its eyes full of confusion.
"Let's go, take me to see Di Tian Di Tian. I have important matters to discuss with him!" Lin Mo said calmly.
It was as if nothing had happened.
Upon hearing this, the Scarlet King remained silent for a long time, but in the end, he turned around in silence and left with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
The Scarlet King began to lead the way for Lin Mo.
Having witnessed Lin Mo's immense power, King Chen no longer had the courage to confront Lin Mo.
However, after walking for a while, the Scarlet King couldn't help but turn back and say, "Human, are you sure you really want to go to the Lake of Life?"
Lin Mo nodded as he admired the surrounding scenery. "Yes, we're going. What's up?"
His gaze swept over a huge fern, then quickly fell on another towering ancient tree Entanglement vines.
He looked remarkably relaxed, just like a tourist visiting the area.
Hearing this, the Scarlet King sighed and said no more.
It's unbelievable that there are such stubborn people in this world.
While it's true that the Scarlet King is no match for this human, it doesn't mean that Di Tian is no match for him either.
Thinking of this, the Scarlet King's unease subsided somewhat.
That's Di Tian!
The undisputed strongest in the Douluo Continent!!
Whether among Soul Master or Soul Beast, he is undoubtedly the strongest!!!
" Scarlet King, he shouldn't have meant any harm."
A pleasant female voice came again, Three-Eyed Golden Lion whispered in defense of Lin Mo:
"If he really meant me harm, how could I possibly still be standing here safely?"
"And you know what, he's actually quite handsome, much better looking than any other Soul Beast I've ever seen!"
When the Three-Eyed Golden Lion spoke, its eyes sparkled, its tail was slightly raised, and its tone even carried a hint of girlish joy and excitement.
Upon hearing its little Auspicious Beast, quietly defend Lin Mo, the six eyes on the three heads of the Scarlet King rolled their eyes simultaneously.
My little darling, why are you still on the side of humans?
Give humans back their voice.
Don't you realize yet that you just had a brush with death?
Seemingly Frisk something amiss with the Scarlet King, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion began to mutter to itself again.
"But it felt really good just now."
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion secretly glanced at Lin Mo before quickly averting its gaze.
From the very beginning, she did not resist Lin Mo's contact with her.
That's why she was like a kitten, enjoying herself under Lin Mo's touch just now.
She never sensed any malice from Lin Mo; on the contrary, she felt an unprecedented and indescribable sense of intimacy from Lin Mo.
This sense of familiarity even Transcendence that of Di Tian, who had always protected and nurtured her growth in the Star Dou Great Forest.
In fact, the warmth Lin Mo brought her was even greater than that of the dragon that had offered her food!
Thinking of this, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion secretly glanced at Lin Mo again.
Besides that, what surprised her the most was that, despite being so close to Lin Mo just now, she, as a darling of fate and Emperor Auspicious Beast, hadn't even Frisk the slightest trace of Lin Mo's destiny.
This makes the Three-Eyed Golden Lion treat Lin Mo even better.
My own abilities are unlikely to fail, so the only one who could have an accident is this human.
Are these humans beings who have transcended fate?
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion thought to herself that the only thing she could be certain of through the power of fate was that the appearance of this human who called himself Lin Mo was only beneficial to her, and not harmful.
This was the real reason she whispered in defense of Lin Mo.
Soon, led by the Scarlet King, Lin Mo, the Snow Empress, and the Charizard, along with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, slowly made their way into the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Before long, they arrived at their destination, the Lake of Life.
Just before stepping onto the Lake of Life, the Scarlet King turned back to look at Lin Mo, offering himself words of comfort.
One reason is that he can't defeat this human, and the other is that the human has no ill intentions. The guarantee from the Three-Eyed Golden Lion is another matter entirely.
It was willing to bring Lin Mo and his group to the Lake of Life to meet Di Tian.
The main reason is that it didn't sense any malice from the little guy on Lin Mo's shoulder.
On the contrary, it evoked a very warm and welcoming feeling.
This little guy is also a member of the dragon race, and his status is definitely higher than mine.
Its true form is Three-Headed Scarlet Demon Mastiff, possessing a certain concentration of True Dragon blood!
Soon after, the Lake of Life.
Di Tian, slowly awakened by the Scarlet King, looked at Lin Mo, who was smiling not far away. After figuring out what had happened, Di Tian was so angry he almost laughed.
" Scarlet King, do you know who you brought here?" Di Tian roared.
"Huh?" The Scarlet King looked bewildered.
Then, the Scarlet King put on a fawning smile and tentatively asked:
"This human meant no harm, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to bring myself and the Auspicious Beast back intact!"
"Stupid dog!"
Di Tian dropped the pretense and directly retorted, "So it was you who brought the human gods here?"
Di Tian was almost laughing in exasperation at this stupid dog.
It's one thing to entrust the safety of the Auspicious Beast with such a brainless idiot, who can't even handle such a small task.
And now they actually dare to bring a human deity to such an important place as the Lake of Life without even figuring out the human's identity.
Thinking of this, Di Tian glanced once more at the still calm human deity and the petite dragon beast that resembled the Fire Dragon King perched on his shoulder.
With Di Tian's insightful perspective, it was naturally not difficult for him to determine that the person was a deity.
Moreover, he was no ordinary deity; even before my strength declined, I was no match for him.
The reason he can maintain a semblance of calm now is precisely because of this.
He sensed no malice or danger from the human deity before him.
Moreover, it seems that the Fire Dragon King chose the dragon beast beside him as his successor.
Moreover, it seems that not only the Fire Dragon King's legacy exists, but also the Water Dragon King's legacy is within this human.
Thinking of this, Di Tianxin's unease subsided slightly.
He looked again at the stunningly beautiful woman behind Lin Mo, a woman he knew all too well.
Heavenly Snow Woman, Snow Empress.
In this way, it is not difficult to understand why the Snow Empress chose to follow humans.
It was precisely because Di Tian temporarily suppressed his Rage and clarified the current situation that he was able to do so.
Otherwise, he would have dealt with the Scarlet King with a lesson he would never forget long ago when the Scarlet King made such a grave mistake.
In Di Tian's eyes, even ten Three-Eyed Golden Lion combined are not as important as one ten-thousandth of the safety of his lord.
This is why he has remained steadfastly in the Lake of Life, never choosing to leave.
Upon hearing this, the Scarlet King was stunned.
Before he could even step out of the Tiger Crouching Stance and beg for mercy from Di Tian, a silver-white dragon head emerged from the Lake of Life in the Star Dou Great Forest.
The instant the dragon's head broke through the lake's surface, a terrifying pressure spread outwards.
Apart from Di Tian, all the Ferocious Beast retreated uncontrollably under this oppressive force.
Soon, the enormous dragon's body disappeared, replaced by a woman with silver hair and purple eyes wearing a white dress.
She walked barefoot on the lake, her long, silvery-white hair reaching her waist.
Those purple eyes swept lightly over everyone present, finally settling on Lin Mo.
It was none other than Gu Yuena, the Silver Dragon King whom Lin Mo had met before!
