In Douluo Continent, his martial soul mutated into Blue Silver Grass.

The power of light is both warm and powerful. Almost subconsciously, an idea formed in Lin Hai's mind.

"Have you ever been kicked by light?" Lin Hai thought of this extremely pretentious question.

"Your Majesty, you are still alive?"

"Hmm? Now that you mention it, it makes sense! Hahahaha, I am still alive! Tremble! I have been resurrected! Those guys, wait for my revenge!" The Light Dragon King laughed arrogantly.

"Your Majesty, it seems you have now become this little fellow's martial spirit. However, this misfortune has turned into a blessing in disguise, and you have been reborn."

"As long as this little guy gets stronger, I believe you will be able to fully recover."

"You're right, this kid is really my lucky star. If it weren't for him, I might have really disappeared into the river of time."

"Boy, from now on I'll protect you!" The Radiant Dragon King looked at Lin Hai with a satisfied expression.

"Boy, from now on I will supervise your cultivation. You mustn't slack off. Once I recover, I'll take you flying."

Yes, yes, yes, let's go on a rampage together, I'll take care of the killing!

"I'll be relying on your help from now on!"

"Sure, sure, hahaha!"

……

"Alright, let's go back! I'll go out with this kid and you guys. I've heard that the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon Clan member named Di Tian is more powerful than you. He's a disgrace to our Holy Light Dragon Clan."

"You're lucky. This kid's life energy is pretty good, and your injuries have been effectively healed. But if your cultivation doesn't progress much after this, don't blame me for being impolite. Hmph!"

"We now know that we are in a position to cultivate diligently and await your return, so that we may once again lead our Holy Dragon Clan back to its former glory."

"Um!"

"Kid, let's go!" The Light Dragon King flapped his little wings and flew to Lin Hai's side.

"Alright, senior!" Lin Hai followed the Light Dragon King to an altar.

This altar was built during the great war between the dragons and the gods. Initially, the Holy Light Dragon Clan did not set up any restrictions on entry and exit, and all dragons could come and go freely. However, with the outbreak of the war between the dragons and the gods, in order to prevent the gods from launching a surprise attack on their base, the Light Dragon King set up this restriction. Similarly, it may be relatively easy to enter, but it is not so easy to leave. The dragons are inherently warlike, and the Light Dragon King also wanted to restrain those warlike but weak members of his clan.

However, when the divine army invaded later, the Light Dragon King's methods still failed to stop the divine realm.

"Your Majesty, we are waiting for your return!"

"Alright, stop with the mushy stuff," the Light Dragon King, who had ascended the altar, replied impatiently.

Then the Radiant Dragon King looked at Lin Hai and said, "Boy, are you ready? The time-space tunnel isn't so easy to pass through. I wonder if your physical body can withstand it?"

"Please don't underestimate me, senior!"

"Don't worry, I'm still here!" Electrolux's voice was always so quiet.

Having said that, the Light Dragon King didn't say anything more. Then, its chubby little body suddenly burst out with extremely dense light energy.

In a flash, it and Lin Hai disappeared from the spot.

"They're gone~~" the Holy Dragon of Light said with a sigh.

However, before he could finish speaking, an extremely angry voice came from within the space, "Space Dragon King, Time Dragon King, how dare you scheme against me!"

"I"

The Holy Dragons of Light looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Wang, are they alright?"

"I guess so!"

What exactly happened? Let me explain in detail.

Last time, we talked about Liyue... cough cough cough, I misspoke. In the latter half of the war between the Dragon Clan and the God Realm, the Time Dragon King and the Space Dragon King betrayed them, and the Dragon Clan was defeated in the war against the God Realm as a result.

The rebellious Time Dragon King and Space Dragon King knew that their rebellion would inevitably lead to the reckoning of the dragon race in the future.

So time and space, without hesitation, decided to end things once and for all.

However, they are still members of the dragon race after all. Even if they rebel, if they were to go all out, they would be purged by all the dragons without hesitation. So they came up with these disgusting and scheming backup plans.

It was just some minor tricks they played outside the various dragon clan mini-worlds. It wasn't anything major; they just tampered with the space tunnels leading out of the dragon clan mini-worlds. Whenever a dragon tried to leave, the tunnel would collapse, and the dragon would be caught in a spacetime turbulence.

Well, it's nothing serious!

While Lin Hai was being swept away by the spatial turbulence, a major upheaval was taking place on the Douluo Continent. Emperor Xue Qinghe of the Heaven Dou Empire dispatched a large army to purge lords and nobles who disobeyed royal orders. No noble was innocent in the path of the army.

The military might of the Heavenly Dou Empire also made the forces within the empire realize that in just a few years, the Heavenly Dou Empire was no longer the one previously led by Emperor Xue Ye. This newly enthroned young emperor had his own ambitions and methods, and he had developed and strengthened his army.

As soon as Xue Qinghe made his move, Prince Xue Xing once again hid like an ostrich.

"Rumors? Heh, in the face of absolute power, any rumor is nothing but a joke. Don't you agree, my dear ministers?" Xue Qinghe narrowed his eyes and swept them over the kneeling ministers below.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"Pass on my order."

"From this moment forward, strictly implement the decrees I have issued, whether in military or civilian matters. I want you to work with me to create a stronger empire. You will all be the pioneers of this great era."

"Although I have deterred those duchies with my powerful military might, they still have a considerable number of troops. I want you to find a way to transform these troops of the Heavenly Dou Empire into the military power of the Heavenly Dou Empire."

"And then there's the army in the north. I heard my uncle is also in the north, and it's said he often speaks ill of me to Marshal Goron. I trust Marshal Goron's loyalty, but I must be wary of treacherous people, mustn't I?"

"Issue my order to have Marshal Goron return to the Empire to report on the situation in the Northern Border over the years. If he does not come, I believe you know what to do."

"We understand!"

"Good. I will order the Heavenly Dou Royal Knights to accompany you ministers and protect your safety."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" These old foxes knew exactly what Xue Qinghe was planning. Protecting them was one thing, but monitoring them was another. This emperor was truly cunning!

"The court session is over!"

After returning to his palace, Xue Qinghe asked the void, "Still no news of that guy?"

"Young Master, no."

"Young Master, please don't worry. That kid is very lucky. I believe his little fox will be alright. Maybe when he comes back, he will give us an even bigger surprise."

"The elder is right. I should reach the Title Douluo level as soon as possible. Next time he comes back, I want to give him a surprise first."

"Moreover, I'm also waiting for him to come back and witness the day when our shared ideals are realized."

"By the way, Elder, have you got any leads on the people who spread those rumors?"

"Young Master, we do have some, but..." With Chrysanthemum Douluo's abilities, if he were to actually collect these clues, he could still find some.

"What's wrong? Can't I say? Tell me!!"

"Ugh!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo gritted his teeth and said directly, "Reporting to the young master, I found out that those who spread the rumors all went to the Spirit Hall in the end, although they left after a short time inside."

"The Spirit Hall, hmph, Bibi Dong!"

"Very well, very well, Pope of the Spirit Hall, you've really given me too much credit!"

"The eighth offering, the ninth offering."

"Your subordinate is here!"

"In my capacity as Elder Qian Renxue of the Spirit Hall, I hereby order that, from this moment forward, the Pope's authority over the elders is revoked. From this moment forward, she will govern her Spirit Hall, and I will govern my Elder Hall."

"I'd like to see what she, as pope, can do without the elders' help!"

"snort!"

"Yes, young master."

Inside a verdant palace, a woman's voice rang out, tinged with urgency.

"Little Purple, that little guy's presence has vanished!!!"

"Hmm?" The handsome man turned around.

"It's gone?"

"Hmm! It's completely gone. I can't sense that little guy anymore!"

"That brat." The man in the purple robe frowned.

"I was hoping this little guy could take over our positions soon, so we could go out and play like good and evil!" the beautiful woman said with a regretful tone.

"Moreover, this brat actually managed to combine your life force with my destructive power without any conflict. I was originally hoping that you, as his successor, could resolve the issue of our two energies repelling each other."

"It's my fault, it's been so long, all this time..." The stunning woman in green said, pressing her hand to her stomach.

"Little Green, it's not your fault." The man in purple robes stepped forward, put his arm around the woman in green, and gently comforted her.

"You don't need to worry too much. We've all been watching that little guy come this far, and he's incredibly lucky. Plus, with the backup plans you and I have made for him, I'm sure he'll be safe and sound."

Yes, they all left a contingency plan for Lin Hai—a wisp of the primal power of life and destruction. When Lin Hai truly grasps the essence of life and destruction, these two primal forces will make his path smoother.

In other words, these two sources of origin are divine tests bestowed upon Lin Hai by these two individuals, but Lin Hai has not yet opened these divine tests. Because of the special identities of these two individuals, the requirements for opening the divine tests are relatively high.

"Where am I?" In a daze, Lin Hai opened his eyes and looked around at the surrounding scenery, which was all green.

"Hey, you're awake?" Just as Lin Hai was still half asleep, a sweet little girl's voice rang in his ears.

Lin Hai shook his head, clearing his mind a bit, and then turned to look in the direction from which the voice had just come out.

"A little girl," Lin Hai murmured.

Lin Hai saw a little girl, exceptionally cute with her delicate features. She had fair skin, a chubby, pink face, and long, light blue hair styled into two small braids. Her large, bright green eyes swayed with her movements.

"Hey, you're the little girl!" The little girl immediately put her hands on her hips and glared angrily at Lin Hai.

"Who are you? How did you get in? The temple isn't open yet!" The little girl suppressed her anger and asked curiously.

"Hello!" Lin Hai stood up, patted his clothes, and then focused his attention on the little girl.

He then realized that the little girl in front of him was floating in the air, and exclaimed in surprise, "A Dou Zong expert, no, a Soul Saint?"

"Such a young Soul Saint, could he be some reclusive old monster?"

"You're the old monster, your whole family are old monsters." The little girl, who had been calming down, was ignited by Lin Hai's words.

"And another question I'm asking you: Who are you? And what do you mean by 'Battle Master' and 'Soul Saint'?"

Lin Hai looked at the little girl, who clearly looked like a child but didn't act like an adult, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up slightly.

"What are you laughing at? What's so funny? I've been asking you for so long and you haven't answered a single question. That's so rude."

"Hehehe, hello, my name is Lin Hai!"

"Hmm! That's more like it. Also, you still haven't explained what you mean by 'Battle Master' and 'Soul Saint'?"

"You don't know Soul Saint?" Lin Hai asked in surprise.

"Nonsense!" The little girl rolled her eyes.

"This isn't Douluo Continent? You're not a Soul Master?"

"Douluo Continent? Never heard of it. And what is a Soul Master?"

Hearing this, Lin Hai knew that he seemed to have lost his way in the world again.

Seeing that the little girl still seemed to want to ask more questions, Lin Hai explained, "Soul Master is a status, a title for humans who use soul power as the source of their cultivation. As for Soul Saint and Dou Zong, it's the same principle; it's a classification of cultivation levels."

"Oh!" the little girl replied indifferently.

"Soul power? Then it seems you're not from here."

"Did you know there were other times?"

"Of course, when the goddess left back then, she told me a lot of other things," the little girl said with pride.

"Alright, it's my turn now. I want to know where we are?"

"Here it is, hehehe!" The little girl straightened her chest, put her hands on her hips, and looked very proud and smug.

"This is a dreamlike temple created by the goddess of nature, and you are in a dreamlike paradise created by the goddess of nature."

"Goddess of Nature? Dream Temple? Dream Paradise?" Lin Hai felt these words were unusually familiar.

"And who are you?" After a moment, Lin Hai asked the little girl in front of him, although he already had an answer in his heart.
