An Zhen believes she has good control over her emotions.
Where does this sudden sense of familiarity come from?
Because of the Golden Dragon bloodline of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion?
No. He's not the real Fire Dragon King, and the Fire Dragon King's soul has always been kept in his Virtual World, so it doesn't affect him. Even the Fire Dragon King's torso has been assimilated and controlled by him, and even the Spirit Ability has nothing to do with the Fire Dragon King anymore.
The only part of his body and soul that doesn't belong to the original is the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear metacarpal bone, which is being assimilated. But this thing doesn't affect him.
Upon careful consideration, there is only one thing that can give him this heartfelt feeling: his Spirit, World Modulation Mode, Virtual World, which is also his soul.
So, is the reason he feels so close to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion because of the power of destiny emanating from the other?
Extreme Fire, ultimate light, Golden Dragon bloodline, power of destiny.
The first three can be eliminated. If it were the first three, he should have the same feelings for Huo Yutong, Wu Feng, and Gu Yuena around him, but that's not the case.
With a glint of light in his dark eyes, An Zhen walked toward the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
"Teacher, please unlock the cage," An Zhen said.
Mu En frowned slightly. He realized that An Zhen wanted to approach the Emperor Rui Beast. Although judging from its aura, its cultivation level was only a little over ten thousand years, the power it had just unleashed had already been weakened by his power, and its true strength was no less than that of a hundred-thousand-year-old Spirit Beast. This behavior was too dangerous.
Mu En noticed something unusual—the emotions revealed in the eyes of the man and the beast as they looked at each other.
"Alright then." Mu En trusted his student. Moreover, with An Zhen's strength, even facing a true 100,000-year-old Spirit Beast, he wouldn't be completely powerless. However, the white-gold dragon scales on Mu En's arm hadn't faded. If this auspicious beast dared to have any intention of attacking An Zhen, he would punch it without hesitation.
The cage of light that imprisoned the Three-Eyed Golden Lion dissipated.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion, now free, glanced at the Star Dou Great Forest behind it, but instead of leaving this dangerous place, it remained where it was, quietly watching An Zhen. In her three eyes, a hand grew larger and larger in her vision.
This human wants to touch her!
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion saw a very clear intention.
In the past, if anyone even had the intention to do such a thing, she would get very angry, like a True Dragon whose scales have been touched, and would tear the other party to pieces with her sharp claws.
This time, however, Three-Eyed Golden Lion didn't feel any anger; instead, he had a different feeling.
He unconsciously took a step forward, his limbs treading on golden flames.
When the Three-Eyed Golden Lion came to her senses, she felt a touch on her face; the human had touched her, or rather, she had moved closer to him herself.
"Snoring~"
A joyful sound rang out from the mouth of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
So comfortable~
Emperor Rui Beast's brilliant golden fur shimmered with a golden halo under the sunlight, and a hint of intimacy appeared in her eerie crimson vertical pupils. Her golden eyes were comfortably narrowed. The noble Emperor Rui Beast in Star Dou Great Forest was like a golden cat at this moment, allowing the man in front of her to stroke her fur. Touches that she would normally consider a taboo subject were now allowed to be touched all over her body.
However, at this moment, the intimacy in An Zhen's dark eyes receded like the tide, and a sense of longing surged into his mind the instant he came into contact with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
He wanted to swallow her whole.
An Zhen now knew the origin of his feelings for the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
He is a new world.
What is the World? The World encompasses everything. The four most basic elements that constitute the World are wind, fire, and water, as well as lightning, ice, and so on, which evolve from them... However, to constitute a complete and mature World, these alone are not enough. A World composed of individual elements is still a World, but it is not perfect. Time, space, and even fate are also indispensable and important components.
An Zhen has unlocked a portion of the spatial authority—the Universe. When he first came into contact with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, An Zhen learned that he possessed the power of destiny within him. This was normal, because he was the World, and the World encompasses everything. However, this part of his power, or authority, was not yet unlocked; yet, due to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's power of destiny, this part of his power became active.
His previous affinity for the Three-Eyed Golden Lion stemmed from the active power of destiny within the Virtual World, while his current longing arose from the fact that the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's power of destiny was a great tonic for his Virtual World.
As for the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's kindness towards him, fate wouldn't refuse a complete world, especially since his status is above the Three-Eyed Golden Lion. Although his Virtual World is weak, currently inferior to Douluo's. His World exists in a certain dimension, but without a doubt, it is complete.
An Zhen's attention fell on the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
At this moment, the enormous beast head had already nestled into his arms, and the forbidden Eye of Destiny was now within reach of An Zhen. If he simply lowered his head, he could seize a portion of the other party's power of destiny.
That's all.
An Zhen stroked Emperor Rui Beast's golden fur with a look of pure enjoyment.
Firstly, he wasn't without the power of destiny, and he had no grudge against the other party, yet they trusted him so much; why would he want to steal the power of destiny from Three-Eyed Golden Lion? Secondly, the power of destiny that Three-Eyed Golden Lion currently possessed was the power of destiny from Star Dou Great Forest, a part of Douluo Plane. If he were to consume it, even if he were Douluo Plane's son-in-law, his life would be uncertain. Moreover, to be precise, the other party hadn't acknowledged his identity; he was still just a "yellow-haired" figure hiding behind Huo Yutong.
"Human, you smell so good." The Three-Eyed Golden Lion's clear and melodious female voice rang out, but it didn't mean she wanted to eat him. Instead, she wanted to hold him in her arms. The Three-Eyed Golden Lion felt very comfortable being close to An Zhen, like the warm sun in winter or the ice in summer.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion raises one paw.
Do whatever you think.
This is consistent with the style of Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
The golden flames on her claws are manifestations of her spirit power; they will not harm her unless she intends to.
However, the next moment, the instant the golden flame touched An Zhen's body, a sudden change occurred.
"boom!"
A powerful surge of spirit power suddenly appeared.
Golden flames soared into the sky, and the spirit power within the Three-Eyed Golden Lion erupted in that instant, enveloping both the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and An Zhen.
"What is this?" Mu En almost couldn't resist attacking. The Three-Eyed Golden Lion didn't attack An Zhen; instead, the power within her surged forth, enveloping her and An Zhen, and enveloping the two.
What are we supposed to do?
"Why is my power out of control?" Three-Eyed Golden Lion asked in confusion. It wasn't the power she had activated, but rather the power within her body that had surged forth automatically.
"Oh?" An Zhen, enveloped by the power of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, did not feel any discomfort. Instead, the spirit power within him suddenly became active. However, unlike the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, it was not out of control. Instead, it was like a soldier who was ready and waiting for his command.
An Zhen has some doubts about the current situation.
Since that's the case, let's give it a try.
An Zhen is operating his spirit power.
An invisible, crystal-clear, milky-white spirit power emerged; this was An Zhen's spirit power, the spirit power of the World Modulation Mode Spirit.
Mu En's eyes lit up as he gazed at the power surging from An Zhen's body. Although he had witnessed An Zhen's battles many times, those were all instances of him using the power of other Spirits. Mu En, and even Huo Yutong and the other girls, were seeing An Zhen's own Spirit power for the first time. Normally, when he used World... When a Spirit possesses Spirit Ability, they cannot even detect fluctuations in spirit power; they can only sense them when the Spirit uses the copied Spirits.
What attribute does the milky white Spirit Power have?
Mu En sensed the power of light, space, and the four basic elements within it.
A hint of surprise flashed in Gu Yuena's eyes. Although her mental force was currently sealed, no one could surpass her in her sensitivity to the elements. Within An Zhen's spirit power, she sensed several fundamental elements, as well as a relatively obvious spatial attribute. That's it? No.
A solemn look flashed in the purple dragon's eyes. Darkness, light, time, soul, even fate—the first two were relatively obvious, but the latter were deeply hidden, or rather, extremely weak. If she hadn't come into contact with these powers before, she wouldn't have been able to recognize them. All the attributes she knew were present in An Zhen's spirit power, but the vast majority were very weak.
But those are all the attributes!
Even the faintest of these things exists!
Who is the Silver Dragon King?! I don't know as much as you do!
Especially the power of destiny, a power that even the Dragon God has never mastered.
abnormal!
No wonder this guy was confident he could surpass her.
If it weren't for the fact that seizing this opportunity meant giving up her dragon bloodline, Gu Yuena would have been tempted.
On the other side.
Golden flames intertwined and merged with milky-white spirit power.
Looking at this somewhat familiar scene, Huo Yutong suddenly had a bold guess.
" Wu Hun Fusion Skill?!" Wang Donger's surprised voice rang out.
"boom!"
The golden flames surged once more.
Three-Eyed Golden Lion closed her eyes, following her heart's choice. In an instant, her body "burned," golden flames intertwining with milky-white spirit power into a vortex. Three-Eyed Golden Lion's illusory body transformed into countless dazzling lights, pouring into the vortex. Only a single, eerie crimson sliver remained in place, like the intersection of past, present, and future. Milky-white, all-encompassing World power descended, and destiny intertwined at this moment, forming a magnificent and exquisite symphony. The powerful force of destiny descended, pouring into the illusory World, and a strange, distorted halo blocked all sight and prying eyes.
"Unprecedentedly powerful."
A clear, ethereal voice sighed.
A golden streak pierced the halo, and a familiar yet unfamiliar man appeared before them.
Standing nearly two meters tall with broad shoulders and a slender back, he wasn't as muscular as some might imagine, but he exuded an aura of insurmountable power, his mere presence commanding attention. His long, black hair was loose, with a streak of gold creeping up the ends, shimmering with an unusual glow. His handsome face retained some of An Zhen's youthful features, but possessed a mature and composed charm, lacking some of his childishness.
