Douluo: Qian Renxue’s Road to Defeating the Gods

Chapter 589: Nine Tests of Rakshasa

Above the sea, Poseidon looked at the calm sea with cold eyes. Although he had killed Qian Renxue, he still couldn't swallow the evil anger in his heart. He had lived for tens of thousands of years, but he didn't expect to be forced to this point by a twenty-year-old junior. How embarrassing it was for him!
"Lord Poseidon...your divine armor..." Tang San came to the side of Poseidon and looked at him with a little nervousness. Was he sad because his divine armor was broken?

"It's just a divine armor, Tang San. I'm teaching you a truth. When your life is in danger, you can give up everything. But it's just a divine armor. With my ability, I can just make another one in the future."

"Sir Poseidon is sad about the divine armor? Then why..."

Tang San nodded solemnly. He secretly took note of the words of the Sea God. As long as his life was in danger, everything could be abandoned.

"It's okay. We have been delayed here for too long. Let's go to Bibi Dong. If she inherits the Rakshasa throne, it will be troublesome."

"Yes!"

After saying that, Poseidon quickly flew towards the direction where Bibi Dong was, and Tang San followed closely behind. Only the bright moon in the sky was still hanging coldly in the sky, watching everything silently.

Qian Renxue and Qian Daoliu just walked along slowly like this. Qian Daoliu listened quietly to Qian Renxue's confession, sometimes offering his understanding, sometimes comforting Qian Renxue, as if everything was so beautiful.

"Grandpa... tell me... am I stupid..."

Qian Renxue lowered her head, unable to hide her disappointment.

"How could it be, Xiaoxue? If anyone else encountered something like you, they would have collapsed long ago, but you have been working hard until the last moment. However, Grandpa wants to tell you the meaning of light, just like why the Spirit Hall wants to eliminate fallen spirit masters and maintain the law and order of Douluo Continent, and why the Spirit City chooses to be located on the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest."

"What do you mean?" Qian Renxue shook her head in confusion.

“Light shines on all things, giving people enlightenment and upward power. Everyone thinks that they are bright and are walking on a bright path, but is it really so? Everyone knows that the sun is light, the light that illuminates all things, but would the sun say that it is light? Light is defined by people, not by yourself. What you have to do is to become the sun in people’s hearts. Only when everyone recognizes you, you are the real light!”

"Why does the Spirit Hall stand tall on the continent? Why do countless spirit masters regard the Spirit City as a holy place? Because the Spirit Hall is bright and what it does is recognized by everyone. Think about what the Spirit Hall has done, Xiaoxue, I believe you will understand the meaning of light."

"But...what's the use of saying it now?" Qian Renxue lowered her head bitterly. She lost, she failed.

"Death is not the end, surrender is. Xiaoxue, the Angel Family can die in battle, but will never surrender to evil, don't you think?"

"Yes, yes, yes, you are right, but..." Qian Renxue curled her lips. Grandpa, are you confused about reality? We are in this situation, and we are still chatting about nonsense.

But Qian Renxue is in a much better mood now. Death is not scary because she can see her grandfather again. The haze of defeat has also been dispelled by her grandfather Qian Daoliu. Now she is free of distractions and lets go naturally.

Qian Renxue stroked Qian Renxue's head with a smile, and changed the subject: "Look, every time you go with grandpa, you always forget the worries and pain just now, and even forget to say hello to your mother, right?"

"Ah?" Qian Renxue was stunned. Mom, yes, when she was a child, she was ignored by her mother and always ran to her grandfather. He always used his unique method to divert her attention. Over time, as long as she was with her grandfather, she would naturally forget about Bibi Dong... "Haha, silly child, go ahead, your mother is just ahead..."

"how come?"

Qian Renxue stared blankly at the end of the road ahead. It was hazy and seemed like there was a human figure there.

"Grandpa can't lie to you. But you, silly child, even if you want to leave, you should at least say hello to your mother, right?"

Qian Daoliu looked at the end of the road with an indifferent look.

"Okay, Grandpa, wait for me..."

How should I say hello to my mother? Mom, I can’t bear to leave you, I can’t bear to leave you! But… I am not the protagonist in a fairy tale. I can’t always turn danger into safety and come back to life. Maybe I really should say goodbye to you and leave you alone in this cold world. Mom… How should I start…

Looking at Qian Renxue who was gradually walking away, Qian Daoliu could no longer control his emotions, and two lines of tears slid down his cheeks...

"Xiaoxue... this is the last thing grandpa can do for you... from now on... everything depends on you... Xiaoxue... grandpa wants to watch you grow up... wants to see you surrounded by sincere friends... wants to watch you break free from this fate step by step... but... Bibi Dong... whether you can save Xiaoxue... depends on you..."

Qian Daoliu's figure gradually faded until he completely disappeared. He burned his soul and used the last light to illuminate Qian Renxue's path... just to gain a glimmer of life for her...

Qian Renxue seemed to have sensed something when she reached the end. When she looked back, Qian Daoliu had completely dissipated into starlight. Only then did she suddenly realize that her grandfather had burned his soul to send her to this place!

But before she could utter her last cry, the light curtain suddenly sucked her into the divine test place of Rakshasa Nine Tests. At the same time, the plane core in the Cave of Fire of Origin suddenly lit up.

"The destiny has returned... The test for the Son of the Plane has finally begun!"

The light from the core of the plane illuminated the dark cave. Inside the cave, Bibi Dong was sitting cross-legged with a frown on her face and a pale expression. In front of her was a strange and hideous purple mask, which exuded a surging murderous aura, like a vicious beast trapped in a cage, roaring and tentatively touching Bibi Dong's body.

The Nine Tests of Rakshasa have begun!
On the seashore, Poseidon used his spiritual power to search for Rakshasa's breath. Tang San followed behind him cautiously, not daring to breathe.

After a long while, Poseidon's frown remained tightly furrowed. Bibi Dong's aura had stayed here for a long time, but why couldn't he detect it now? Where did she go?
"Lord Poseidon, are these nine tests difficult?"

Tang San was about to start the Nine Tests, and now, Bibi Dong was starting one. He was skeptical and wanted to know what the Nine Tests were about.

"It's not difficult. It all depends on yourself. The so-called nine tests are the tests of condensing the godhood. The illusions in it are nothing more than a test of how firm you are in your heart. The more firm your will is and the more you recognize your path, the stronger your godhood will be, and the more handy you will be in controlling the godhood. Do you understand? Tang San, once you accept the nine tests, you must insist on recognizing everything about yourself, and don't waver in the illusion."

"Godhood is your path to becoming a god. Only by moving forward firmly, will your path always be at your feet. If you doubt yourself and regret your persistence, then this path to becoming a god will disappear, your godhood will be shattered, and your position as a god will be lost..."
