Douluo Continent: Qian Daoliu has had a crush on me for a long time

Chapter 78 The Divine Pillar Glows

Ye Jingqiu nodded calmly and said, "That's right, my martial soul is the Soul-Capturing Bell."

However, she was shrewd and didn't tell them the full details of her cultivation. She slowly said, "Level 48 Control-type Battle Soul Master."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chengjing, who had just taken a bite of a steamed bun, forgot to swallow and hurriedly stood up, exclaiming in disbelief, "What? Qiuqiu, you're already level 48?!"

Ye Jingqiu looked at them with a puzzled expression, wondering why they were so surprised. What was so strange about being at level 48?

Perhaps sensing the confusion and curiosity in Ye Jingqiu's eyes, Ye Shiyu explained softly, "Although the Soul-Capturing Bell is a powerful martial soul, it has a fatal flaw."

Ye Jingqiu frowned and looked at them in confusion. "What's wrong with it?" She had been cultivating for so long and hadn't felt any flaws in the Soul-Capturing Bell.

Ye Shiyu said, "The innate full soul power of an ordinary person is level ten, while for a soul master who possesses the Soul-Capturing Bell martial soul, the innate full soul power is level eight."

"However, it is extremely rare to encounter a Soul Master with innate full Soul Power. In the Soul Absorbing Sect, a Soul Master with innate Soul Power Level 6 can already be considered a genius. Moreover, the Soul Absorbing Bell has another drawback: although this Martial Soul is powerful, it is equally difficult to cultivate."

"Under the same time and the same talent, a normal Soul Master can cultivate to level 20, while we Soul Masters with the Soul-Capturing Bell can only cultivate to level 15."

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingqiu frowned deeply. To be honest, she hadn't sensed anything Ye Shiyu was saying.

Ye Shiyu looked at her and asked, "Qiuqiu, is your innate soul power level eight?"

Ye Jingqiu shook his head.

Ye Chengjing muttered in confusion, "That's not right. If you weren't born with full soul power, how could you cultivate so quickly? That's impossible."

Ye Jingqiu slowly said, "I do have innate full soul power, but it's not true innate full soul power."

Upon hearing this, Ye Shiyu stood up in shock and asked, "Qiuqiu, do you mean your innate soul power is level ten?"

Ye Jingqiu nodded slightly, not denying it, "My innate soul power is indeed level ten."

Ye Shiyu and Ye Chengjing exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with deep shock.

Ye Jingqiu didn't grow up in the Soul-Seizing Sect, so she didn't know much about the Soul-Seizing Bell, but Ye Shiyu and Ye Chengjing were different.

Level 10 innate full soul power—only the legendary figure has ever possessed it. Could it be…?

Ye Shiyu and Ye Chengjing's gazes fell on Ye Jingqiu almost simultaneously.

The latter showed no sign of panic, but instead calmly said, "Actually, I came to see the sect leader today to ask you about your ascension to godhood."

Ye Shiyu sighed. Facing his own granddaughter, he had no intention of hiding anything. He slowly asked, "Lu Fangbin told you?"

Ye Jingqiu nodded slightly. "I know you are a level 99 Peerless Douluo. It is said that one can become a god at level 100, so I want to know why you, at level 99, have not yet become a god."

Ye Shiyu said, "It's true that you need to reach level 100 to become a god, but level 100 is just a trivial requirement on the path to godhood. In addition, you also need to gain the god's approval and receive the god's inheritance."

"To gain God's approval, you also need faith. No matter how powerful you are, you cannot become a god without God's approval. In addition, you also need opportunity and luck."

"I am destined not to become a god in this life, and my mission is to guide the future chosen successor of the gods to become a god."

Ye Jingqiu nodded thoughtfully; she hadn't expected that this was the reason.

Is it because of this that Sendou Ryu was unable to become a god and a guide?

Ye Shiyu looked at Ye Jingqiu with a serious expression and said, "Qiuqiu, whether it's talent or anything else, you are one of the best in the Soul-Seizing Sect. I want to take you to the statue of the god to see if you are the one who will inherit the divine position."

Ye Jingqiu looked shocked. "Me? Is that possible?"

Becoming a god is her current goal. She always thought she was far from becoming a god, but to Ye Jingqiu's surprise, it was actually very close.

Ye Shiyu nodded slightly, "Of course, I have been waiting for the successor to appear. If Qiuqiu is indeed the successor, my mission will be completed."

His gaze toward Ye Jingqiu was filled with loving light.

Ye Chengjing nodded vigorously. "Our Qiuqiu is still the best. But even if she isn't, it's okay. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. I think Qiuqiu is really strong and could become a Title Douluo within twenty years."

Ye Jingqiu nodded with a slight smile. She did not deny it, because that was also her goal.

They ate very quickly, leaving the restaurant in less than half an hour.

Ye Shiyu led Ye Chengjing and Ye Jingqiu into the Soul-Seizing Sect.

Ye Shiyu said, "Qiuqiu, don't be nervous later. Just face it calmly. Although you are a god, a god will not make things difficult for you."

Ye Jingqiu nodded slowly.

Further on, they arrived at a very desolate place. Unlike the luxury outside the Soul-Seizing Sect, this place was extremely bleak.

The ground was covered with fallen leaves, and the surrounding trees had completely withered, with not a single green leaf on their dry trunks.

The latest novel is first published here!

The ground was also bare, without a single blade of grass or wildflower.

Ye Jingqiu frowned slightly as she followed the two. Just then, Ye Chengjing spoke up, "Qiuqiu, your uncle can't go any further. I'll take you on the rest of the way. Remember, no matter what you see later, don't be nervous. Only by facing things calmly will you have a chance to become a god."

Ye Jingqiu smiled slightly and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, I understand."

After saying this, Ye Jingqiu followed Ye Shiyu inside.

Everything inside was even more desolate.

There weren't even any bare trees left, and there was nothing around except bare ground.

Just then, Ye Jingqiu saw the huge pillar in front of him.

It was a huge silver pillar, carved with various soul-capturing bells, and the patterns on the bells seemed to come alive in an instant, shimmering with golden light.

A thin silver chain fastens them together between the bells.

Ye Jingqiu inexplicably sensed an extremely strong aura from it. His brows furrowed slightly as he looked at Ye Shiyu in confusion and asked, "Sect Master, what is this?"

Ye Shiyu was also astonished. "I have never seen this divine pillar emit such a dazzling and magnificent light."

"Is this a divine pillar?" Ye Jingqiu found the key point in his words.

Ye Shiyu nodded slightly, his face firm, and said, "That's right, this is the Divine Pillar, and it represents the will of God." His gaze was somewhat fervent.

My darlings, I'm taking a day off on the 12th! There will be another update on the 13th, so don't wait up!
