Chapter 507 Preparation for Fusion
Lin You looked at Bi Ji with some curiosity, "Senior, I'd like to know why you chose this path? With your cultivation and status, you could have lived a long and peaceful life."

Brigitte gently stroked her emerald-green hair, a deep light flashing in her eyes, "Because I also want to become a god."

Her words silenced all the spirit beasts present.

"How difficult it is for a soul beast to become a god."

Brigitte chuckled self-deprecatingly, “The ironclad rules of the divine realm are there for all to see. For us non-human beings to even dream of ascending to godhood is practically a pipe dream. But now, I see the future in you.”

Her gaze hardened. "You carry the Dragon King's legacy and possess the power to change the rules. If I follow you, perhaps I can truly break through that insurmountable barrier and become a true god."

Brigitte paused, her voice carrying a hint of determination, "Moreover, my race is far too weak. Even with over 500,000 years of cultivation, the Emerald Swan race is still prey in this dog-eat-dog world. The world you described is exactly what we, as weak races, need most."

Lin You gave her a deep look.

“In that case, let’s go see your people,” Lin You said. “I want to see the habitat of the Emerald Swans with my own eyes.”

A hint of surprise flashed in Brigitte's eyes. "Okay, please follow me."

Habitat of Emerald Swans
Led by Biji, the group ventured deeper into the Star Dou Great Forest. As they went further in, the surrounding scenery began to change.

The ancient trees grew even taller, their leaves displaying a unique emerald green that shimmered in the sunlight. A faint scent of life filled the air, bringing a sense of tranquility and peace.

“This is the habitat of our Emerald Swan clan,” Brigitte introduced softly.

A vast lake appeared ahead, its waters crystal clear and displaying a dreamlike emerald hue. White lotus flowers floated on the surface, emitting a faint fragrance.

In the heart of the lake lies a small island, upon which grows a colossal ancient tree, its canopy like a cloud, its leaves shimmering with an emerald light. Beneath the tree are exquisite nests, the dwellings of the emerald swans.

"Wow, so beautiful!" Di Qiu'er exclaimed excitedly, her beautiful eyes filled with amazement.

Just then, a series of beautiful calls echoed across the lake. Dozens of emerald swans took flight from the island in the middle of the lake. Their feathers were as white as snow, yet shimmered with a faint emerald hue in the sunlight, a beauty as ethereal as a dream.

"The patriarch is back!"

"It's Chief Brigitte!"

The emerald swans cried out excitedly and flew over. When they saw Lin You beside Brigitte, they immediately felt the pressure emanating from the Dragon King's bloodline, and all the swans respectfully lowered their heads.

"Greetings, Your Excellency, the Successor!"

The swans called out in unison, their voices clear and melodious, like the sounds of nature.

One of the older jade swans transformed into a human form, a beautiful middle-aged woman. She quickly walked up to Lin You and bowed deeply.

"Your Excellency, I am Qingya, an elder of the Emerald Swan Clan. On behalf of the entire clan, I welcome you!"

The other swans also transformed and performed the highest level of etiquette for Lin You.

Lin You watched this scene with some surprise, then turned to Bi Ji and asked, "Senior, do your people know what you're going to do? Won't they stop you from leaving?"

Brigitte sighed softly, a complex emotion flashing in her emerald eyes. "Of course they know. And they want me to succeed more than anyone else."

She looked at her people, her voice tinged with helplessness, "Inheritor, do you know? If the Dragon Clan truly revives and the Light Dragon King returns to his throne, we soul beasts with the ultimate life attributes, who have neither dragon blood nor powerful combat abilities, will be the best tonic in the eyes of the Dragon Clan."

Brigitte's words sent a chill down Lin You's spine, and he vaguely understood something.

“Di Tian’s promise alone cannot protect us,” Bi Ji said with a bitter smile. “The dragon race has a strict hierarchy. Even Di Tian is merely a subordinate before a true Dragon King. If I could become your spirit and receive the protection of the Dragon King’s bloodline, at least my people would have a glimmer of hope.” Lin You was silent for a moment. He finally fully understood Bi Ji’s choice. This was not just about her own path to godhood, but about the survival of the entire race.

Dragons are truly superior beings.

"So, when do we begin?" Brigitte asked, a hint of anticipation in her eyes.

Lin You scratched his head somewhat awkwardly, "Well, actually I'm not ready for soul fusion yet."

At this moment, Xue Di walked over, her icy blue eyes sweeping over Lin You. "I need to fuse his first four spirit rings first. After all, the stability of the basic spirit rings is related to the fusion effect of the subsequent spirit spirits."

“We can start anytime,” Lin You quickly said. “I’m already prepared for it.”

Upon hearing this, Brigitte smiled with relief. "It seems I still have some free time to spend with my people."

Lin You nodded, then took out the communication crystal and injected soul power to connect with Huo Yuqin, who was far away in the Sun Moon Empire.

"Yu Chen, I need Elder Yi's help. There is a very important soul fusion ceremony."

"Understood, I'll be right there," Huo Yuqin's voice came from the crystal.

Lin You put away the crystal, found a quiet spot by the lake, sat cross-legged, closed his eyes to rest, and waited for Yu Qin to arrive.

The Snow Empress was not idle either. She took out a rare flower that was crystal clear from her soul tool. It was a 100,000-year-old snow lotus from the ice mountain.

"This is for Biji to protect her," Xue Di explained to Lin You. "Although soul fusion does not result in true death, the pain during the process is no less than that of rebirth. With this snow lotus protecting her, the burden can be greatly reduced."

Looking at the precious snow lotus, Biji's eyes flashed with gratitude. "Thank you, Senior Snow Emperor."

Meanwhile, on the other side of the Lake of Life, several ferocious beasts gathered together, their expressions somewhat complicated.

"Di Tian, ​​are you really going to just stand by and watch Bi Ji sacrifice herself?" Xiong Jun asked in a deep voice. "She is one of the most powerful cultivators among us."

Di Tian gazed silently into the distance, a flicker of pain flashing in his golden eyes. "This is Bi Ji's own choice, and I have no right to interfere."

"But..." The Demon King hesitated, then stopped himself from speaking.

"But what?" Di Tian gave a bitter smile. "Do you think I don't understand Bi Ji's situation?"

He sighed deeply, his voice filled with endless helplessness, "Once the Dragon Realm truly returns, given the Dragon Clan's ways, the best outcome for someone like Bi Ji would be to be chosen by some Dragon King and taken as a concubine. She wouldn't even qualify as a proper spouse, because she doesn't deserve that."

Di Tian's words silenced all the ferocious beasts present.

"More than 500,000 years of cultivation is still not enough in front of a god."

Di Tian continued, "And her race will inevitably be treated as a great tonic. Dragons are good in every way, except that they are too harsh on lower-level soul beasts. They eat what they want and do what they want. Do you think all those sub-dragons just fell from the sky?"

Zi Ji whispered from the side, "Therefore, Bi Ji's choice to become Lin You's soul spirit was actually the wisest choice."

“Yes.” Di Tian nodded, his eyes becoming profound. “Rather than waiting for an uncertain future, it’s better to take control of our own destiny. Moreover, although Lin You’s ideas are a bit idealistic, they at least give us another possibility.”

Become a god!
