Chapter 278 Nature and Protection
After a long while, when Huo Yuhao opened his eyes, a mysterious, dark yellow light, like that of mountains and rivers, flashed across them.
An unprecedented sense of power instantly filled his body.
At this moment, he felt as if he had activated the enhanced state of the Heavenly Dragon's Wrath.
"As the Dragon King who bears the power to stabilize the mountains and rivers, the power boost that your Uncle Mountain Dragon King's soul bone will bring you will be second only to that of the Golden Dragon King."
Di Tian looked at Huo Yuhao, who had just awakened: "Once you become a Soul Saint and perfect your Qi theory, the ability to split mountains with your strength will no longer be a metaphor, but a real ability to overturn mountains and seas with your fist."
"That blank soul bone skill slot was specially left for you by your Uncle Mountain Dragon King. It's called the Eternal Dragon Body, and he wants you to integrate the Immovable Azure Dragon Bell from the Azure Dragon Transformation Technique into it, turning it into the strongest defensive skill."
"I feel it's time for you to take on Niu Tian alone."
Huo Yuhao felt the inexhaustible power surging within him, and a surge of heroic spirit welled up within him.
The Mountain Dragon King's torso bones bring not only a terrifying increase in power, but also a sense of "immovable as a mountain, bearing all things".
He could clearly sense the pulse of the surrounding earth, and even faintly mobilize a trace of the earth vein power of this Dragon Valley small world.
However, Huo Yuhao did not try out any new soul skills here.
The dragon bones of the dragon race are still here. If they are accidentally destroyed, it would be an enormous sin.
"The Mountain Dragon Domain can be combined with the Dragon Abyss Earth Roar."
A thoughtful glint flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes: "After cultivating the Azure Dragon Body and switching to Qi cultivation in the future, the Soul Ring will be integrated into the body."
"The soul bones of the six dragon kings will be the key to achieving the final stage of dragon transformation."
Having figured out the path ahead, Huo Yuhao calmed himself down and then wondered where the Mountain Dragon King's dragon soul had gone.
Di Tian informed Huo Yuhao of the Mountain Dragon King's arrangement to postpone the transformation into a demon and the resurrection of the dragons, and to wait for Tianhe Wuchen and the others to arrive before making a decision.
"There is one more very important thing."
Di Tian's voice grew heavy: "The Fire Dragon King's child is currently in this world."
"Uncle Mountain Dragon King wants her to incubate in your Heavenly Heart Communication Domain."
"However, you don't need to worry that the dragon race will become too powerful in the future and turn around to oppress humans."
"Your senior brother, Long Aotian, is the most suitable human to break through through the communion of the Heavenly Heart."
A dragon hatched from the nascent form of a realm, and a human who breaks through within it—their starting point will be second only to Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao suppressed the shock he felt at the existence of the Fire Dragon King's daughter.
"There's no need for that."
He said, "The Azure Dragon Guard and many beast kings came here to cultivate."
"Just as I cannot fully perfect the theory of Qi on my own, if the interaction between Heaven and Earth truly wants to grow, relying on only one or two darlings will only make it deformed and fragile."
"What a realm needs is not one or two prodigies, but the diversity of life, the inclusiveness of laws, and the possibility of civilization evolution."
Huo Yuhao recounted to Di Tian the theory of civilization evolution that Electrolux had mentioned.
"The Azure Dragon Guard is currently the elite of humanity's elite."
"And the many Beast Kings are the cornerstone of the Soul Beasts."
"You all represent the essence and potential of Douluo Star."
Huo Yuhao's Heavenly Heart Communication Domain is derived from the unity of heaven and man and is deeply bound to Douluo Star.
"If we use the Dragon God's theory of the Divine Star, when I truly cultivate to a level sufficient to transcend the Douluo Universe, Douluo Star will evolve into a Divine Star through the Heavenly Heart Interaction Domain."
"The laws of the new realm should bear the imprint of this inclusiveness and symbiosis from the very beginning."
"Instead of creating new divisions by dividing people into different classes from the very beginning."
After hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Di Tian's eyes first flashed with surprise, followed by deep satisfaction.
A world cannot be based on a single, exclusive entity, nor can it be built solely on the foundation of one or two individuals.
Huo Yuhao's advancement of Douluo Star to a god star may seem like a one-man show, but it relied on the Martial Ancestor, Ilex, the cultivation systems of Tianxuan Continent and Holy Demon Continent, and countless other living beings on Douluo Star.
"Senior Di Tian actually thought so a long time ago, didn't he?"
Huo Yuhao blinked: "It was the night we first went to the Dragon Continent and lay on Mount Sacred God, talking freely."
"If my power makes the world rigidly hierarchical and divided, how would it be different from the current divine realm?"
A hint of reminiscence flashed in Di Tian's eyes: "Back then, I thought you were just acting on a youthful impulse."

"Now it seems that your heart is more expansive and more steadfast than I imagined."
Huo Yuhao laughed and said, "If we follow the division of divine positions, then you will become the God of Nature and Guardians in the future."
"The god of nature and guardianship?"
Di Tian muttered something under his breath, then chuckled and said, "If such a day comes in the future, it wouldn't be bad."
"You've really gotten addicted to being a hands-off manager."
"I've been protecting soul beasts for hundreds of thousands of years, and you still want me to continue working for you?"
Huo Yuhao shook his head: "You can't say that. Even after a teacher retires, they still need to have something to do."
"And what does it mean to be a hands-off manager? I'm responsible for paving the way, and the seniors are responsible for protecting the foundation."
"This is called division of labor and cooperation; neither can be dispensed with."
Di Tian and Huo Yuhao smiled at each other, a tacit understanding that transcended race and concerned the future of the world flowing silently between them.
They spoke freely, just as they had on Mount Saint that night, without any reservations about whether the things they discussed were distant or not.
"Okay, jokes aside."
Di Tian suppressed his smile: "Uncle Mountain Dragon King is still not sure when he will be back. The most urgent thing is for you to absorb the Wind Dragon King's soul bone."
"That small valley is extremely far from here, let's go there first."
As soon as he finished speaking, Di Tian's figure blurred, transforming into a deep black stream of light, and sped away towards the outside of Dragon Valley.
With Huo Yuhao's current strength, he no longer needs to accommodate Huo Yuhao's speed.
"Wind Dragon King————"
Huo Yuhao murmured to himself, then followed closely behind Di Tian, heading towards the location of Little Dragon Valley described by the Mountain Dragon King.
Not only does the Wind Dragon King sleep there, but also the parents of Emperor Tian, the Dark Dragon King and the Light Dragon King, slumber there.
The two flew one after the other across the vast and desolate land of the Dragon Valley Small World.
Mountains, valleys, dried-up riverbeds, and massive keels rushed past beneath me.
As they approached the small valley, a sense of freedom, speed, and unrestrainedness, yet also a sharpness that seemed to tear everything apart, gradually permeated the air.
Finally, a strange landscape appeared before us.
This is an area composed of countless deep, narrow, and intersecting massive rift valleys.
A relentless, sharp howling sound came from the bottom of the valley; it was the fierce roar of the wind.
The entire area resembled a land scarred by countless hurricane blades.
"Just as Uncle Mountain Dragon King said."
Di Tian stared into the depths of the rift: "The Wind Dragon King's dragon soul won't last much longer."
Huo Yuhao approached silently.
As the Wind Dragon King's soul was about to dissipate, the power within his dragon bones began to gradually erode this rift valley.
If left unchecked, given the injuries the Wind Dragon King suffered, his power will completely dissipate in this world within ten thousand years.
The Light Dragon King and Dark Dragon King, whose dragon souls are even more incomplete, will likely dissipate even sooner.
"At least we're here now."
Huo Yuhao said, "The Wind Dragon King, the Light Dragon King, and the Dark Dragon King will be reborn on a new path."
Di Tian showed a relieved expression.
Yes, now that they've arrived, there's still a chance to salvage the situation.
Then Di Tian took a step forward, and spoke in a deep and ancient dragon language.
"Uncle Wind Dragon King."
"Father, Mother."
"Di Tian has come to see you, bringing with him the hope for the revival of the Dragon Clan."
Three extremely loud dragon roars suddenly resounded deep within the rift valley as Di Tian's voice fell!
