Douluo Continent.
Looking up at the Heavenly Screen, Li Dan's perspective lit up again. "It's lit up! It's Li Dan's perspective, that Strange World that isn't part of the Shrouding the Heavens World."
However, the people of the Douluo Continent soon became curious again.
"Huh? Why is Li Dan sitting in that metal box?"
A strange scene appeared in the Heavenly Screen: Li Dan was sitting inside an "iron box," looking around nervously.
Outside the metal box, the scenery rushed past.
"What exactly is this metal box? How can it move so fast?"
"It looks a bit like a carriage, but there are no horses or Soul Beast pulling it!"
"Could it be some kind of special Soul Tool? But I've never seen this type of device in the Sun Moon Empire..."
Also, where are they going?
"I don't know."
"Tell me, what kind of world is this?"
It looks completely different from the Shrouding the Heavens World," and apart from the strange iron box and the iron bird, there seems to be nothing of interest to investigate...
"Yes, they all look like a group of physically weak ordinary people, absolutely weak."
In a world like this, any Soul Master could easily sweep through an entire area, right?
Upon hearing this, someone laughed and said, "Actually, this world isn't so bad."
"As long as you're Soul Master, you can experience what it's like to be superior to others. That doesn't seem bad..."
This statement resonated with many people.
In the Douluo Continent, although there is a world of difference between Soul Master and ordinary people, there is more than one Soul Master.
But this special world...
It seems that they are all ordinary people with weak constitutions, far inferior to those in the Shrouding the Heavens World. Going here would immediately allow one to rise above all living beings, which is fatally attractive to many Soul Master.
However, just as everyone was discussing how they would not eat beef if they went to this world in the future.
But then...
Suddenly, a scene caught everyone's attention, and some even exclaimed in surprise:
"Wait! Look out the window!"
A white-haired, white-clad figure flashed past beside the street where the metal box was traveling.
The figure walked with his hands behind his back, his aura as ethereal as the Haoyue, standing out starkly from the bustling crowd.
Douluo Continent, Shrek Academy.
"That... that's not..." Yu Xiaogang's pupils constricted, " The Heavenly Emperor Hao, Lin Hao?"
Tang San also stared in surprise at the fleeting white figure. Although it was just a glimpse, Tang San was certain:
"It really is him... Heavenly Emperor Hao, Lin Hao!"
Tang San could never forget how transcendent and peerless that figure in white was in White Emperor City...
Tang San couldn't understand how someone like that could appear in this completely ordinary world full of "iron boxes."
Tang San wasn't the only one curious.
Inside the Spirit Hall, in the Pope's Palace.
Bibi Dong sat regally on the Pope throne, her deep purple eyes gazing at the Heavenly Screen.
Especially at the vanished white-clad figure, his brows furrowed slightly, his exquisite face filled with confusion and solemnity.
" Lin Hao..."
Why is he here?
Below, Ghost Douluo Gui Mei whispered, " Your His Holiness the Pope, could this... just be someone who looks similar?"
"No," Bibi Dong slowly shook her head, her tone resolute, "That aura cannot be faked."
Even across the Heavenly Screen, for just a moment, I could feel that transcendent, otherworldly charm, that quality that surpasses everything.
"Besides the Heavenly Emperor Hao, I can't think of anyone else who could possess such divine charm!"
Thinking about it, Bibi Dong pondered, "Could it be that that world isn't just a world for ordinary people?"
Yue Guan couldn't help but say, "But Your Majesty, this world seems completely different from the Shrouding the Heavens World."
"The people there have no aura of power, and the artifacts are very strange. If they really are part of the Shrouding the Heavens World, this is too... too outrageous."
The two styles are worlds apart.
Bibi Dong stood up and slowly walked down the steps, her magnificent Pope robe trailing on the ground.
She looked up at the Heavenly Screen. "Outrageous? Absolutely outrageous."
"But Lin Hao's presence here means that this world is far more complex than it appears on the surface."
"This world is very likely connected to the Shrouding the Heavens World in some way."
"Or perhaps it is itself part of the Shrouding the Heavens World, and what we have seen so far is merely the tip of the iceberg?"
Just as everyone in the Douluo Continent world was shocked by Lin Hao's appearance there...
The Shrouding the Heavens World ".
Earth, at the foot of Mount Tai.
Ye Fan parked the car and looked at Li Dan in the passenger seat.
" Li Dan, just wait for me in the car. I'm going to meet with my classmate briefly, I'll be right back."
"No, no!" Li Dan shook his head frantically, his eyes filled with panic. "I... I'll go with you."
Having been in this unfamiliar world for several days, Li Dan felt like a piece of duckweed thrown into the ocean; everything seemed so unreal.
Those moving "iron boxes," those glowing little cubes, those towering glass buildings...
Everything was beyond his comprehension.
Now he finally ran into an "acquaintance"—although this "acquaintance," Ye Fan, was someone he almost bumped into by accident, and the two were complete strangers before.
But at this moment, Li Dan still refused to be separated from him no matter what.
Ye Fan sighed, looking at Li Dan's anxious expression, "Alright, then stick close to me and don't wander off."
"Uh-huh!"
Li Dan nodded vigorously, hurriedly unbuckled his seatbelt, and got out of the car.
The two walked together toward the entrance to Mount Tai.
It was peak tourist season, and the foot of Mount Tai was teeming with tourists. People of all accents and clothing gathered here, creating a lively scene.
"This is Mount Tai, the foremost of the Five Sacred Mountains, the place where ancient emperors performed the Fengshan ceremony."
As Ye Fan walked, he explained to Li Dan, "Look over there, that's the Southern Heavenly Gate. We'll start climbing from the Red Gate, pass through the Middle Heavenly Gate and the Eighteen Bends, and finally reach the Jade Emperor Peak..."
Li Dan nodded blankly, but his eyes involuntarily darted around.
This mountain is indeed majestic and spectacular, but compared to the core area of Star Dou Great Forest in the Douluo Continent, it seems to lack some mystery and danger.
But there are so many people here...
Ye Fan watched this scene with a hint of doubt in his heart.
Is this Li Dan really faking amnesia to extort money?
But looking at his complete ignorance of everything—not even Mount Tai, and utterly clueless about common sense in modern society—isn't his acting a little too convincing?
" Ye Fan! Over here!"
Just as Ye Fan was pondering, a rough voice came from afar.
Ye Fan looked up and saw a tall, handsome young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes waving vigorously. It was Pang Bo, his college classmate and one of his best friends.
" Pang Bo!" Ye Fan smiled and quickly stepped forward.
