As the dawn's light illuminates the earth, the river flows quietly through the mountains, the warmth of the rising sun is no longer gentle, and a powerful seasonal force, shaking the heavens and earth, spreads from the land of the East Sea to all directions.
The silver giant wolf, having reached the border of Bei'e Yu Da Xia, suddenly stopped. A sharp light flashed in its icy blue eyes, and then its silvery-white body transformed into a streak of light and sped forward.
In the Atlantic Ocean, the penguin army, struggling forward, suddenly increased its speed to the rousing electronic music of the Emperor Penguin, and the swarming marine mammals also changed direction at this moment.
They no longer see the penguin colony as prey, but instead strive to advance towards the East China Sea together with the penguin colony.
On Spirit Beast Mountain, Tiger Dad had already gathered the entire spirit beast team and was making arrangements for the departure team.
Lin Qian stood beside the formation, looking towards the East China Sea with the Great White Tiger. At this moment, even without the guidance of the jade tablet, his stepmother sensed a strange attraction.
Lin Qian silently gazed towards the coastline, his golden eyes gleaming with brilliant light. Under the increasingly intense sunlight, his soft, mottled tiger fur swayed slightly in the wind, radiating a faint golden hue—a brilliance as warm and dazzling as the sun itself.
Lin Qian knew that the unknown nine gates had been opened.
Lin Qian knew very little about the Nine Gates; all it knew was the information contained within the jade tablet.
The Nine Gates are a passageway connecting to another world, but it's not entirely another world, because the world that the Nine Gates connect to is originally part of the world they inhabit.
The two worlds share the same origin and are inherently inseparable.
As for why the origin of a world was divided into two parts, Lin Qian naturally did not know such secrets, but it was probably due to some kind of change that had occurred in the past.
But none of that mattered to Lin Qian and his companions. What they needed was to enter that new world, find opportunities to become stronger, and obtain sufficient resources for their growth.
According to the jade tablet, no living beings were born in that world; it was utterly desolate. Compared to this dazzling and beautiful world, it was a barren world devoid of the beauty of life. However, the energy of the world's origin would not disappear. Since no living beings were born, other spiritual beings would be born, and thus, there would inevitably be many spiritual beings.
This is why the spirit beasts who possess jade tokens are so concerned about and value the opening of the Nine Gates.
The passage was discovered by Tiger Saint's generation. However, at that time, Tiger Saint and his companions were unable to successfully enter that realm, but the preparations for entering were already nearly complete.
If the Western Holy Lord hadn't wanted to monopolize this opportunity and attempted to break through the boundary alone to transcend using the origin of that realm, this opportunity wouldn't have been preserved until now.
The sealing of the spiritual veins also stemmed from this, as they attempted to steal the origin and transcend the world. Even though the rules of the world are not like those of living beings, they would still be angered.
The Western Holy Lord naturally met a tragic end, his soul dissipated. However, the spiritual energy of the earth's veins that it forcibly extracted was still severely depleted, and the powerful beings of that time were also implicated, suffering countless deaths and injuries.
The power of Heaven's Way, even if it only affects them, is something that living beings cannot resist. Therefore, only Tiger Saint and the others survived the entire era. Fortunately, Heaven's Way did not intend to exterminate them, otherwise Tiger Saint and the others would not even have had the chance to hide in the secret realm.
Setting up arrays to nurture spiritual veins is their way of making amends and pleasing the Heavenly Dao, which is also the reason why spiritual energy does not emerge in this realm.
The current revival of spiritual energy is not the arrangement of Tiger Saint and his companions, but rather a change in the natural world itself. With the spiritual veins restored to a certain extent, the operation of the rules of heaven and earth will naturally no longer be dormant.
"roar!"
Tiger Dad's roar snapped Lin Qian back to his senses, and with a swift turn, he ran towards the assembled team on the mountainside.
Tiger Dad was very satisfied with the well-organized spirit beast team. Its subordinates were becoming more numerous and stronger. Not bad!
Tiger Dad has assembled a team of 300 spirit beasts that are level 10 or above. For this trip, spirit beasts that are not level 10 and belong to the combat type are not allowed to participate.
Although Lin Qian didn't know what the other world was like, he knew it wouldn't be safe. Therefore, he had discussed with Tiger Dad and the others beforehand that only spirit beasts with sufficient self-defense capabilities could be in the first echelon.
Despite having a thousand spirit beasts on Spirit Beast Mountain, the awakening of spirit beasts depends on luck, and their growth is more difficult than that of humans. Every one of them in the battle team is precious, and Lin Qian and his companions certainly do not want to lose too many.
The main force mobilized this time consisted of the tiger parents, Lin Qian and Yong Qi, and the Jin Diao couple.
The stepmother stayed home, and the chipmunks, Gu Bai, and Bai Teng, who weren't good at fighting, didn't go either.
Since the Nine Gates won't close for a while once they're opened, there's no need to worry about other spirit beasts not having a chance to get there. The main purpose this time is to explore and get a better understanding of the area first; finding resources isn't the priority.
After all, only the first of the nine gates has been opened; there are plenty of opportunities ahead.

East China Sea.
Thousands of miles from the land, in the deep sea, a huge spacetime portal suddenly appeared. This portal was a torn rift, with distorted spatial forces constantly tearing at it, and spatial turbulence surging, making it extremely dangerous.
However, at the edge of the crack, a mysterious force was constantly gathering the spatial energy emanating from it. The crack was like a picture frame being reframed, and the chaotic spacetime flow inside the crack was being gradually gathered and calmed by this force.
Clearly, once the "frame" is fully formed, the spatial power of this spatial rift will stabilize, and then the nine gates will be complete.
Lin Qian and Tiger Dad were relatively close, and they arrived at the East Coast in less than half a day. Even standing on the shore, they could still see the Time Gate hanging high above the sea.
"Roar." Something's coming.
