"No need."

In the face of the overwhelming dragon power surging towards them and sensing the even purer dragon aura than Di Tian's, Bi Ji's expression changed slightly. She hurriedly spoke up to explain, not just out of respect for the rules, but also because of the difference in status.

There were irreconcilable differences between soul beasts and humans. Until a suitable solution was found, polite exchanges between the two groups were considered a luxury. Had Lu Yuan not been invited, he would probably have been attacked upon entering the forest.

But not now. Now, if Bi Ji dared to stand in his way, it would be unreasonable. The rules were established by the Dragon God, but those within their own group were likely to be more lenient compared to other orc clans. As a result, disrespecting an invited human was within her rights, but disrespecting an invited pure-blood dragon was another matter entirely.

"That's good."

Lu Yuan replied, and the wide dragon wings wrapped around his dragon body. Accompanied by a dazzling light, a massive light cluster appeared, which gradually shrank and solidified into a red and blue egg. Soon, cracks spread across the eggshell, and spots of light burst out, dissipating into nothingness in the air.

The eggshell eventually exploded, revealing Lu Yuan maintaining a cross-legged posture inside. Calmly opening his eyes, he descended from midair to the ground.

Very well. Maybe he hadn't quite mastered the powerful style, but he was sure he had captured the essence of it. At least, that's what he believed. He gave full marks to the light and shadow effects, the appearance, and the concluding methods, and considered the combat effectiveness to be passable.

Silently applauding the soul skill's performance, Lu Yuan turned his attention to the figure that had appeared beside him.

"Di Tian?"

Bi Ji seemed taken aback by Ditian's imposing entrance and spoke his name almost involuntarily.

Nodding at Bi Ji, Di Tian raised his arms silently and pointed towards the Lake of Life, where the most vibrant energy was concentrated.

"Please."

His words remained concise, perfectly aligning with Di Tian's aloof, imposing demeanor.

Lu Yuan nodded and led Xiao Wu towards the Lake of Life. However, as they passed Ditian, they were halted abruptly.

"The Lord only invites you."

Sensing the doubt in Lu Yuan's eyes, Ditian provided a light explanation. Before Lu Yuan could inquire further, Ditian added, "Don't worry, I can guarantee her safety, and Bi Ji won't leave."

Lu Yuan gazed at Ditian for a moment, then gently rubbed Xiao Wu's head and apologized, "Wait here for me, alright?"

"Well, don't worry."

Xiao Wu hugged Lu Yuan, her fear and reluctance overshadowed by an obedient smile.

Nodding once more to Ditian, Lu Yuan proceeded alone towards the Lake of Life.

Observing Lu Yuan's departure, the three-eyed golden lion looked at Xiao Wu with a peculiar affection in its eyes. For some reason, it felt a tinge of discomfort, as if its favorite food had been taken away by someone else. Yet, even though it felt uneasy, it had no intention of targeting a 100,000-year-old soft bone rabbit.

With a displeased snort, the three-eyed golden lion walked away haughtily, tearing a piece of flesh from the seemingly innocent Skydream Iceworm and lazily consuming it. The flesh and blood of the Skydream Iceworm was an excellent tonic and, due to its spiritual attributes, aligned perfectly with Golden Lion's preferences.

Amused by the Golden Lion's reaction, Bi Ji didn't say much. She walked over to Xiao Wu's side and struck up a friendly conversation with her. In this moment, the law of the jungle was fully evident.

Meanwhile, the Scarlet King grabbed a handful of medicinal herbs, crushed them with its soul power, and applied the paste directly onto the wound of the Tianmeng Iceworm.

It then slapped the wounded area, making the Iceworm hiss in discomfort. As it observed the Iceworm's reaction, the Scarlet King nodded in satisfaction and retracted its claws.

"Lesson learned," Scarlet King declared. "One should know their place, whether they remain a human or a beast."

Tianmeng Iceworm gazed skyward, a mixture of frustration and resignation in its heart. Is it destined that it bears this burden after all?

Lu Yuan remained oblivious to Tianmeng Iceworm's inner grumbles. Instead, he stood at the bottom of the lake, facing a striking girl with silver hair and purple eyes.

A silence hung between them, neither taking the initiative to speak.

Gu Yuena's crystal-clear purple eyes fixed on Lu Yuan, reflecting a trace of surprise. She studied him carefully, as if trying to discern something from his appearance.

Lu Yuan, however, didn't pay much heed to Gu Yuena's scrutiny. He had other concerns—his attention was focused on the surrounding environment. He knew there was something he could perceive that others couldn't.

He might not be able to see what others saw, but he could see things others couldn't.

Almost materialized, the silver lines sprawled densely across the lake's bottom, looking like waves of silver at a glance. Even if some threads disintegrated, more silver lines instantly emerged to fill the void left by the vanished threads.

As he gazed upon the densely packed silver lines, resembling a network of space elements, Lu Yuan felt a tingling sensation on his scalp. If he perceived correctly, these silver lines were constructed from space elements.

In other words, it was an entirely different method of constructing his own small world.

Lu Yuan's method of constructing his small world involved assimilation, whereas here, they forcibly divided the original space, extracted its essence, and then seized it to create a new space for themselves.

Inexplicably, Lu Yuan recalled a saying: "It's not that I'm wrong, it's the world that's wrong."

"What's on your mind?"

"It's not wrong," Lu Yuan blurted out unconsciously. Realizing his slip, he quickly caught himself and swallowed the rest of the sentence.

Coughing lightly to mask his embarrassment, he replied, "I wasn't thinking about anything specific, just observing the surroundings."

Gu Yuena's eyes flashed with surprise, and she questioned, "You can see?"

"Sure."

Lu Yuan raised his hand, and a faint silver glow emanated from his palm. The surrounding space seemed to waver slightly, affected by this sudden force.

Raising her delicate hand, Gu Yuena gently pressed the air, instantly dispelling the sense of confusion that had emerged. The silver light on Lu Yuan's hand dimmed as a result.

"Put it away," she instructed.

In the next moment, as if by teleportation, she appeared in front of Lu Yuan in an instant. Her jade-like fingers lightly brushed against his forehead, ignoring his dilated pupils and any potential resistance.

A brief moment of reaction time later, she politely asked, "If it's convenient, could you let me take a look at the Eye of Destiny? Thank you."

Lu Yuan's eyelid twitched violently, and he felt a pang of regret. Had he acted too hastily on this trip?

It wasn't just because Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena had the power to manipulate space elements. Even if she didn't possess that ability, her formidable cultivation allowed her to approach him at a speed he couldn't react to.

Furthermore, she was currently injured.

If Gu Yuena were uninjured and not split—when she was in her Dragon God state—Lu Yuan suddenly understood why the Nine Dragon Kings had perished or fled without putting up much of a fight. It wasn't because they were weak, but rather because the Dragon God was overwhelmingly strong.

A second-level gods combat power was akin to a slap in the face to the Dragon God. This realization explained why the Ice and Fire Dragon King had met such a grim fate.

Lu Yuan's thoughts raced, but there was something he had to face. He cleared his throat, "I'm sorry, but it's inconvenient."

He chuckled helplessly, his gaze shifting as he opened the eye on his forehead quite cooperatively.

Opening the eye for the first time led to the three-eyed golden lion's distress.

Opening it for the second time, the God Realm and the three-eyed golden lion experienced hardship together, facing a sword energy that bore through their midst.

And now, opening it for the third time...

He understood everything.
