Chapter 19 Gu Yuena: Navelette, on par with the Dragon God?!
Gu Yuena was somewhat stunned.
She looked down at her hands and then tried to circulate the soul power within her body.
Without any hindrance or obstruction.
That kind of excruciating pain, like a bone-deep boil, had vanished into thin air.
Even her Silver Dragon Spear seemed to have reached a higher threshold.
"Just who is this person who holds this golden list?"
A storm raged in Gu Yuena's heart.
The existence behind this golden list, capable of so easily erasing the divine power of a God King like the Asura God, must have already surpassed the peak of the Dragon God!
After the initial shock came ecstasy, and then a surge of anger that had been suppressed for tens of thousands of years.
"The realm of gods..."
Gu Yuena's fingers tightened slightly as she gripped the spear, her knuckles turning white.
A terrifying killing intent emanated from her and instantly swept across the entire core area of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Now that her injuries had healed, it was time to settle the score with those hypocrites in the divine realm!
But...
Gu Yuena quickly concealed her aura.
She wasn't the kind of reckless person blinded by hatred.
Although her strength had been restored, she might not have a full chance of winning if she directly attacked the God Realm now.
Moreover, she had just awakened and was completely unaware of the current situation on the Douluo Continent.
"Di Tian."
Gu Yuena called out softly in a cool, clear voice.
The next second.
Suddenly, a fierce wind arose deep within the once peaceful forest.
A colossal black dragon shadow blotted out the sky as it approached the Lake of Life, quickly transforming into human form and kneeling heavily before Gu Yuena.
"Your subordinate is here!"
The Beast God Di Tian, the leader of the ten most ferocious beasts who usually dominated the continent, was now as humble as a child in front of her.
He raised his head and felt the vast, ocean-like aura of his lord, his eyes filled with tears of excitement.
"Congratulations, my lord! Congratulations, my lord!"
"Fully healed, you will once again take control of the world!"
Gu Yuena waved her hand, signaling him to get up.
"No need for such formalities."
"Tell me, what is the state of this continent now?"
"Who are these people on the list of successful candidates?"
She needed to figure this out.
Why was it that even her Silver Dragon Spear could only be ranked fifth?
Just how powerful were those four?
Di Tian dared not be negligent and quickly composed himself before speaking:
"Return to the Lord."
"The situation in the human world today is quite complex."
"The Spirit Hall is all-powerful. That woman named Bibi Dong is inheriting the Rakshasa Godhood and is ambitious to unify the continent."
"On Poseidon Island, a young man named Tang San has appeared. The Golden Ranking just showed that he has reached level 100 and become a god, inheriting the Sea God position."
Upon hearing this, a hint of disdain flashed in Gu Yuena's eyes.
"Sea God? Rakshasa God?"
"They are nothing more than successors of first-level gods. If it were back then, someone like them wouldn't even be qualified to meet me."
Di Tian gave a wry smile.
Only the Lord would dare to say such words.
But his next words became hesitant.
"My lord, besides these two forces, there is another place that is extremely special."
"Oh?"
Gu Yuena raised an eyebrow. "Tell me about it."
Di Tian took a deep breath and pointed to the northern sky.
"Tianshui City."
"That place was originally just a small human town, but everything changed after a new city lord appeared."
"That city lord's name is Navelette."
"..."
Upon hearing this name, Di Tian's expression became unusually solemn.
"I sensed it from afar once."
"Although he is in human form, the aura he exudes... is even purer and more ancient than that of the Dragon God!"
"That is a water elemental control that completely transcends the rules of this world."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly.
Even purer than the Dragon God?
How is that possible?
Unless... he is a supreme dragon from another dimension?
"Go on," Gu Yuena said, intrigued.
Di Tian nodded and continued:
"What my subordinates found most incredible was not his strength."
"It is the current situation of Tianshui City."
"There, spirit beasts and human spirit masters are actually living together peacefully!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena didn't react much, but Bi Ji and the Demon King around her showed expressions of astonishment first.
Humans and spirit beasts can coexist peacefully?
This is absolutely ridiculous!
Humans need spirit rings to advance in rank, which means the two sides are destined to be locked in a life-or-death struggle.
How could there be peace?
"Are you sure you didn't see it wrong?" Gu Yuena asked.
"Absolutely true."
Di Tian spoke with certainty.
"The Snow Emperor of the far north faced a 700,000-year tribulation and was doomed."
"It was Navelette who helped her through the crisis."
"The Snow Emperor now resides in Tianshui City, and even..."
Di Tian paused, his expression somewhat strange.
"She even became Navelette's woman."
Gu Yuena: "..."
That's some unexpected news.
The ruler of the far north ice plains submits to a... dragon?
"Not only that."
What Di Tian said next was the real highlight.
"In Tianshui City, Navelette is vigorously promoting a system called 'Soul Spirit'."
"Soul?"
This was the first time Gu Yuena had heard this term.
"Yes, a soul."
Di Tian organized his thoughts and explained:
"The so-called soul spirit is the process by which our soul beasts, when on the verge of death or willingly, fuse their souls with a human's spirit through a special contract."
"This fusion is no longer simply about providing spirit rings and spirit skills."
"Instead, it allows soul beasts to continue living in another form!"
At this point, Di Tian's voice trembled slightly.
Because he knew all too well what this meant for the soul beast race.
"As you know, my lord, cultivation is not easy for us soul beasts. Every 100,000 years is a hurdle."
"If one cannot survive the approaching end, one will be reduced to ashes."
"With this soul spirit system, those soul beasts whose lifespan is about to end can choose a human with potential to become their soul spirit."
"Not only can they retain their sanity, but they can even continue to evolve as the human grows stronger!"
"During battle, the spirit can detach from its host and fight independently."
"This is an absolutely equal contract!"
"Humans have gained spirit rings and helpers, while we soul beasts have gained immortality and the opportunity to evolve."
"This is... a win-win situation!"
"..."
After listening to Di Tian's description.
The entire Lake of Life fell into complete silence.
The light in Gu Yuena's purple eyes flickered uncertainly.
As the Silver Dragon King, she possessed unparalleled wisdom.
She instantly realized the greatness of this "soul spirit" system.
This completely resolved the conflict between humans and soul beasts at its root!
If it could truly be promoted widely.
Then the soul beast race would no longer have to face the fate of being wantonly slaughtered.
They could even indirectly strengthen their overall power by taking advantage of human cultivation speed!
