Douluo Continent: I, Huo Yuhao, am the Master of Spirit

Chapter 306 Death Godhood: "Croak, don't touch her!"

"Damn it, the inherently evil God of Death! I just wanted to touch this child, and for that little thing, you breathed on me?"

In the realm of the gods, in a forest filled with emerald green mist and where life force was almost tangible, the Goddess of Life sat on a branch of a towering tree, her bare feet swaying gently in the air.

She pouted and muttered softly, "I'm not a bad person, I just want to confront the Minotaur. The God of Death isn't very magnanimous."

Death God immediately recognized that this green guy was up to no good. With his body so green, what good could he be?

She actually wanted to dye her beloved child green! How could He possibly allow that? It's just that the divine realm is too far from the underworld, otherwise He would have given her a good beating.

The Douluo Underworld has accumulated too many souls since the Dragon God War. For the Underworlds of other worlds, this situation is something to be overjoyed about.

However, the souls in the Douluo Underworld are not only numerous, but also of extremely high rank. Most of the gods who died in the Dragon God Realm returned to the Underworld.

Because the position of the god of death has no master, and the throne of the lord of the underworld hangs high, ordinary souls are fine, and can go through the cycle of life and death normally according to the laws of nature.

However, for those high-level divine souls, such as first-level gods or even god-kings, the cycle of life and death in the Douluo Underworld, which has lost the sustenance of the Dragon God Realm, is too weak.

These souls are thus stuck in the underworld, unable to move.

Furthermore, due to the lack of celestial energy for nourishment and to prevent the underworld from being overwhelmed, almost all the divine souls remained dormant, waiting for a turning point to occur in the underworld in the future.

The position of the God of Death urgently needs someone to ascend the throne, so that the underworld can have a master, and the God of Death in his complete form can maintain the cycle of life and death to the greatest extent possible, and even allow the underworld to evolve.

The Douluo Underworld is not far from the level of the God Realm; in terms of scale, it reached that level millions of years earlier.

After all, the Dragon God had genuinely provided a subsidy of tens of billions back then, giving the Underworld a significant boost.

The underworld is now just missing a central figure to take the initiative in establishing its central hub and completing the realm's ascension.

With its vast and profound foundation, the sublimated underworld can give birth to underworld gods, allowing beings to ascend, or perhaps it would be more appropriate to say descend into the earth.

Before the appearance of the Xia Die, the Douluo Underworld planned to rot away in the universe along with the plane consciousness of Douluo Star.

However, the consciousness of Douluo Star has been trying to sever the Underworld and free it from the shackles of the Douluo plane for the past ten thousand years.

Let the underworld, relying on its terrifying foundation in the universe, perfect itself over time and sublimate into a complete, advanced realm.

If the little planet spirit wanted to, she could draw energy from the underworld to continue fighting Tang San, but that would only lead to a slow death.

Although the number of souls in the underworld is enormous, they are mostly in a state of energy conservation, and the energy level of heaven and earth is still too low compared to the energy of immortals.

It might even lead Tang San to use her as a springboard to gain influence in the Underworld.

From the perspective of the little planet spirit, it would rather destroy its own foundation than let Tang San, that invasive alien species, touch the Netherworld, which has an explosively deep foundation.

Those dead gods were once her children; she could not allow Tang San to defile their spirits.

Letting the Underworld leave Douluo Star was the last thing she could do for these children.

Fortunately, Huo Yuhao appeared. The moment he arrived in this world, his destiny had already changed. The Spiritual Lord is here now, was here then, and will be here forever.

He transcends time and fate; He is the God of this universe.

With Huo Yuhao's full help, there was no need to sever ties with the Underworld, and the Underworld also sensed Xia Die's presence.

The Butterfly perfectly embodies all the fantasies of the Underworld about its Lord; that pure death is simply made for the Underworld.

At this moment, the Tiger Talisman on the table has been fully activated, not as a split between good and evil, but as a complete manifestation of yin and yang balance.

The white twin tiger pattern emitted a faint glow in the night, appearing particularly dazzling.

The god of death and the goddess of life suddenly froze.

"Huh? What kind of power is this?"

The Goddess of Life exclaimed in amazement as a strange power emanated from the Tiger Talisman, the power of balance manifesting for the first time on the Douluo Continent.

The opposing forces of death and life were drawn together by the Tiger Talisman, forming a yin-yang symbol that was half purple and half green in the air above the room.

The Tai Chi symbol slowly rotated, its profound power drawing the two forces into balance. The Goddess of Life, residing in the divine realm, widened her green eyes. As a veteran god-king, she clearly felt her life force being drawn by a strange force, achieving symbiosis with the power of death.

Life is to death as life is to destruction.

If she and the God of Destruction could achieve this symbiosis, they could have had offspring long ago, and it would have been very easy for them to have offspring that possess both the powers of destruction and life.

There is a certain possibility that offspring may directly inherit the power of creation.

The goddess of life tried to figure out what kind of power it was, that was so strange.

The ability to forcibly draw together two forces indicates that the force must be at a very high level, at least at the level of rules. But what kind of rules are they?
If they could figure it out, perhaps she and Xiao Zi could try to use that power to give birth to even more powerful offspring.

However, the most important thing to consider right now is not that, but to take advantage of this good opportunity to pass on the divine test.

The God of Death watched helplessly as the green light slowly drifted down and landed on the forehead of the sleeping Xia Die.

The goddess of life deliberately slowed down, making the god of death anxious and constantly transmitting the power of death into the mortal world through the barrier of the underworld, like an old man breathing wildly but incompetently and furiously.

"Caw! You green thing, don't touch her!"

A green Tree of Life rune formed on Xia Die's forehead, sacred and noble. Under the nourishment of the rich life force, Xia Die's spiritual sea began to rapidly transform.

"I'm sorry, I can't give you my super artifact, the Ancient Tree of Life, for the time being. I can only give you a projection."

The Goddess of Life felt somewhat guilty. According to the custom of divine succession, once a successor is recognized, the deity should bestow a divine artifact as protection and certification.

However, the Tree of Life is somewhat peculiar; it is not only the former form of the Goddess of Life, but also the core of the Forest of Life.

In order to maintain the life source of the divine realm, the Ancient Tree of Life cannot be given to Xia Die for the time being.

Once the Goddess of Life uses her power to create a core sufficient to supply the life essence of the divine realm, she can liberate the Ancient Tree of Life and then hand it over to Xia Die.

If the God of Death had a physical form at this moment, he would probably be weeping.

The Tiger Talisman's balancing power sensed the imbalance between life and death within Xia Die's body and immediately became agitated, like an obsessive-compulsive disorder patient, forcefully pulling the power of death towards Xia Die.

The Goddess of Life instinctively gasped, trying to stop her. Even the Sea God and the Asura, two forces that are not so conflicting, cannot completely coexist within one person, let alone death and life.

However, she stopped moving. She remembered the strange Tai Chi diagram from earlier, a power that could achieve the coexistence of life and death.

The God of Death also stopped struggling at this moment, watching as the power of death formed a dark purple rune above Xia Die's forehead, and then slowly came into contact with the life rune belonging to the Goddess of Life.

Two distinct forces coexist under balanced attraction, with the forces of life and death surging along the meridians within Xia Die's body.

Originally, her bloodline was a balance of power achieved by Huo Yuhao using the Tianmeng computer through precise calculations, ensuring that neither side was too strong or too weak.

Even obtaining a spirit ring requires half of one's life to be spent while the other is dead.

The power of balance has now perfectly harmonized the two bloodlines, and death and life coexist seamlessly within Xia Die's body.

The divine markings on her forehead underwent a transformation, changing from an ancient tree of life pattern into golden bone claw runes.

Life and death intertwined upon it, and the Tiger Talisman had dimmed and turned to dust. The magic of the Tiger Talisman had completely entered Xia Die's body.

Talismans are merely a vessel for power; their essence lies in the magic they contain.

A balanced force flows within her, maintaining the equilibrium between life and death.

The Death God stopped breathing on the Goddess of Life, carefully checked Xia Die's condition, then slashed the Goddess of Life's consciousness with his claw before disappearing from the mortal world.

Since death and life can coexist, there is no conflict between the God of Death and the Goddess of Life. This is purely retaliation for the Minotaur behavior of the Goddess of Life earlier.

The goddess of life puffed out her cheeks, wanting to blow back, only to find that the position of the god of death had already disappeared from the mortal world.

She sighed and used her life force to purify Xia Die's bloodline. Once she woke up, she would feel the presence of the divine test.

The child's bloodline was very mixed, and no one knew how it happened. The goddess of life carefully helped her complete the purification and integration of her bloodline.
