1229 A Plan to Change the World

"Are you genuinely feigning ignorance with me? I witnessed you harnessing it mere moments ago! Your body was enveloped in a resplendent golden aura! It emanated an incomprehensible and overwhelming pressure that I had never experienced before! Just recalling it makes my blood boil!" Dragon Goddess Yeyou spoke with an angry expression on her face, thinking that he was messing with her.

However, Tian Yi's puzzled expression remained on his face as he spoke, "I genuinely have no idea what you're talking about. Golden aura? I don't even have a technique like that."

"Then what was that golden aura? How did you do it?"

Tian Yi shook his head, "Are you sure you saw it?"

Dragon Goddess Yeyou began doubting whether she actually saw it. She turned to look at Feng Yuming, who was quickly approaching them, and asked her, "Hey! You also saw that golden aura around him right after he was nearly beaten to death, right?"

Feng Yuming did not immediately respond, and when she did, she responded with a smirk on her face, "I didn't see anything. You must have hallucinated or something."

Dragon Goddyess Yeyou clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, her eyes radiating with killing intent.

Feng Yuming sucked her teeth and quickly added, "Just joking."

She turned to look at Tian Yi and continued, "She's not lying. There was a golden aura around you just now. I've never felt anything so oppressive before."

Tian Yi fell silent after hearing this, but he had zero idea what caused the golden aura to show up.

"Now that I think about it, I felt oddly energized for a brief moment, like I was invincible. Unfortunately, I don't know what caused it, nor can I replicate it."

Dragon Goddess Yeyou began to ponder deeply.

A moment later, she spoke with a serious expression on her face, "It appeared shortly after you were nearly beaten to death, so if you experience another near-death situation, it might show up again. I'll help you."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold it!" Tian Yi immediately distanced himself when Dragon Goddess Yeyou started stretching her limbs.

"I barely have enough energy to stay awake and you want to beat me? I will really die."

"Aren't you always so confident in yourself? You'll be fine." Dragon Goddess Yeyou seemed to have no desire to back down and slowly approached Tian Yi.

Seeing this, the Eater of Stars moved to stand in front of Tian Yi.

"I won't let you hurt him." Eater of Stars glared at Dragon Goddess Yeyou sternly.

"You think you have what it takes to stop me? While you may have more raw strength than me, you don't know how to properly use it. You don't even know how to fight properly, and I doubt you know any real techniques. Randomly breathing fire doesn't count, either." Dragon Goddess Yeyou sneered.

"Calm down, both of you. Dragon Goddess, I just want to rest for now. After that, we can figure out the whole golden aura business together, and then I will spar with you. Okay?"

"Fine…" She reluctantly agreed.

"Good, then allow me to introduce you to our new member— Eater of Stars." Tian Yi said.

"Eater of Stars, these two are my traveling companions. The spirited one is Dragon Goddess Yeyou, and the other is Primordial Phoenix, also known as Feng Yuming. And this is Eater of Stars… I am still trying to think of a name for her, so you guys can call her that for now."

"Can you turn into a human?" Feng Yuming suddenly asked.

"I cannot— or more precisely, I don't know how to." Eater of Stars shook her head.

"Don't worry, I'm sure they will teach you." Tian Yi said.

After their short introduction, Tian Yi brought everyone to the closest uninhabited star to recover his injuries.

"So, who do you plan on visiting next?" Feng Yuming asked him.

"Honestly, I don't know. And while it will benefit to have more companions, I think we can start changing the world with just the four of us for now." Tian Yi said.

"And how do you plan on changing the world?"

"We can start by letting the world know of our presence. A human traveling the world and doing things with three Divine Beasts by his side— it will surely stir both the human world and the beast world."

"Seriously? That's the best plan you can come up with after a thousand years?" Dragon Goddess Yeyou was speechless.

"Then do you have any suggestions?"

Dragon Goddess Yeyou was speechless, as she had no idea where to even begin.

"As simple as it may seem, I think your plan will work pretty well." Feng Yuming suddenly spoke up. "Your goal is to create a world where humans and beasts can work together, right? We can commence by demonstrating to the world the very feasibility of such a vision since most believe it to be impossible. By showcasing our partnership, we can enlighten humanity and beasts to the possibility of collaboration between our two worlds."

"Then it's decided!" Tian Yi had an eager smile on his face. "We can start by dealing with issues that normal people or beasts cannot handle by themselves. Do you guys know of anything like that happening within the Divine Heavens at this moment?"

"Well, I've spent the past thousand years traveling the starry sky with you, so my knowledge is to the extent of yours." Feng Yuming shrugged.

"I… I don't know, either." Dragon Goddess Yeyou said in a stiff voice, as she didn't want to admit that she had been following them for the same amount of time.

"That's fine. We can look into it once we return to the Divine Heavens." Tian Yi said.

"Before that, I have something to say." Dragon Goddess Yeyou suddenly said.

"What is it?"

"Shouldn't you spend some time improving your cultivation first? While you are already pretty strong, you could be much, much stronger if you focused on cultivation for some time. After all, you are still in the prime age for that. It would be a waste of your talents if you start too late."

"Is that really necessary? Sounds like a hassle, and I'd rather spend that time to work on my goals." Tian Yi sighed.

"Of course. Beasts are naturally attracted to the strong, so the stronger you are, the more likely they will listen to you. If you want a world where beasts respect humans, you need to show them something worthy of respect because as of now, the majority of beasts do not respect humans in the slightest."

"Makes sense… Alright, I'll dedicate some time to cultivation every once in a while." Tian Yi nonchalantly nodded.

'I've long been aware of his immense talent, evident when he faced me and survived at an age not even surpassing a thousand years. Now, I entertain the notion that he might have scarcely trained before then... Is it conceivable that he is truly a mere human?' Dragon Goddess Yeyou sighed inwardly.

"I've been wondering, how old are you?" Feng Yuming suddenly asked Tian Yi.

"A little over two thousand years old." Tian Yi calmly responded.

"T-Two thousand years old?! Impossible!" Feng Yuming did not dare to believe him.

"It's true. He wasn't even a thousand years old when he fought with me." Dragon Goddess Yeyou confirmed.

"Unbelievable…" Feng Yuming muttered in disbelief.
