Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue

Chapter 117 Xiaoxue's Defender, the Silver Dragon King's Actions

In fact, the God of Destruction had only recently confirmed Qian Renxue's identity.

He originally thought that this angel successor was just a consequence of the lingering aura of the angel god after his divine position was completely shattered ten thousand years ago.

However, all indications now suggest that this so-called successor of the angels may very well be the angel who was thrown into the dimensional barrier ten thousand years ago and then resurrected in some unknown way.

Most importantly, after the angel's fall, he carefully investigated the Douluo Continent and discovered that the angel's aura seemed to have completely vanished, without a trace of its existence. Therefore, it was impossible for a fragment of a god's position to create an angelic martial soul.

On the contrary, after the Rakshasa God fell, he left behind fragments of his divine position, and these fragments seem to be within the force that Ye Xishui is currently in.

The matter of the Angel's successor was known only to him from beginning to end; even the Seven Deadly Sins gods under his command and the God of Destruction never mentioned it. This was because less than a year had passed in the mortal realm, and less than half a day had passed in the divine realm.

This was his last trump card against the sea god, a secret known only to him in the entire divine realm. Even the goddess of life hadn't had a chance to tell her yet.

"Would the divine realm tolerate the emergence of the Holy Spirit Cult?" Ye Xishui asked in a low voice.

"..." The God of Destruction glanced at her, "You know the answer in your heart."

"It's impolite to ask, but I still want to know one thing," Ye Xishui said slowly, "Isn't anyone able to control him?"

"The reshuffling of the divine realm occurred several decades ago, which translates to ten thousand years ago in your world. A major reshuffling took place in the divine realm that time. Our older generation of gods was not a unified force to begin with, and the new gods were even more eager to do something," the God of Destruction said calmly. "I won't go into more detail."

Ye Xishui nodded gently: "I understand."

There are some things I don't tell her because it's not the right time yet, or maybe it's because telling her wouldn't make a difference.

"I've seen your ninth soul skill," the God of Destruction suddenly said. "Here, I'll teach you a move."

Ye Xishui's eyes were a little strange. Why did these words sound so much like what she had said to that Grim Reaper before?

"Watch closely! I'll only demonstrate once!"

An image appeared in Ye Xishui's mind.

Layers of purplish-black destructive intent surged forth, and in an instant, the sky turned completely the same color. Huge bolts of purplish-black lightning descended from the sky, striking the mountain peaks. Compared to Ye Xishui's ninth soul skill, the huge purplish-black lightning ball condensed from this destructive intent did not have much of a show of force; on the contrary, it was very restrained.

"This is one of my divine skills, called Annihilation Divine Thunder."

"Thank you, senior." Ye Xishui bowed slightly.

"A seed of divinity has been planted within your spiritual sea by me. This seed will transform the spiritual consciousness within your soul into divine consciousness. However, remember not to expose your divine consciousness. If anyone discovers your divine consciousness and the seed of divinity and tries to seize it, you will first perish, and secondly, my divine position will be taken from me," the God of Destruction said calmly. "Therefore, if anything happens to you, I will protect myself."

Ye Xishui's spirits lifted. Although she didn't know who else in the Douluo plane might threaten her life, since this deity had said so, it must be hinting at something.

Suddenly, a piece of information appeared in her mind, titled "Thirteen Trials of Destruction".

"...?" It wasn't that she hadn't read history, but it seemed that the sea god and angel god in history should have undergone nine trials, right?

"A first-level god and a god-king are different," the God of Destruction said calmly. "These thirteen trials are specific tests I'm giving you, and you need to complete them one by one. Although you're already close to the edge of the Douluo World, the road ahead is still very long."

"Alright, you should go back now." The voice of the God of Destruction gradually became ethereal, and Ye Xishui's consciousness gradually became blurred.

As if she had just taken a nap, Ye Xishui slowly opened her eyes.

"Ha..." she gasped for breath.

She took in her surroundings. Yes, she was back. "I never imagined that Xiaoxue was actually..." Her heart remained unsettled for a long time. "Then, shouldn't her real name be... Qian Renxue?"

-

Starry Sky Forest.

Di Tian, ​​standing beside the Lake of Life, stared in shock at the sky above.

At his level, he was naturally able to detect a trace of the aura from the divine realm, and he himself was proficient in spatial power.

Just a day ago, it clearly sensed a subtle fluctuation coming from the dimensional barrier above Douluo Planet.

It wanted to investigate what had happened, and was about to activate its spatial teleportation ability when it was stopped.

"My lord! You're awake?" Di Tian asked in a low voice as he reached the bottom of the Lake of Life.

"An aura emanates from the realm of the gods!" came the Silver Dragon King's voice. "This power has disturbed me."

"Yes, I sensed it just now too. I wonder which human has gained the favor of the divine realm," Di Tian said solemnly. "Could it be someone from that place?"

"No," said the Silver Dragon King. "That aura that descended just now, though extremely faint, I have no doubt about it; it was the scent of the God of Destruction."

"Destruction..." Di Tian's eyes darted around uncertainly. The Silver Dragon King had naturally mentioned some things about the realm of gods to him, and knew about the so-called five great god-kings, eighteen main gods, and so on.

"The God of Destruction didn't have a very good relationship with the former Asura God King," the Silver Dragon King said calmly. "If the God of Destruction has indeed found a successor in the mortal realm... I'd like to get to know that successor."

"My lord! You are about to be reborn?!" Di Tian exclaimed in shock. "But your injuries... perhaps I should go and fetch the heir?!"

"Calm down, Di Tian. The divine realm is still above; I will not appear openly," said the Silver Dragon King. "I need auspicious beasts for company, and secondly, capture that golden hawksbill turtle."

"A golden hawksbill turtle?" Di Tian pondered for a moment. "You mean the golden hawksbill turtle that possesses auspicious energy within its body?"

"Yes, I need not only the auspicious energy within it, but also its life force. It was right under your nose that it devoured the Gold of Life." The Silver Dragon King's voice was devoid of any emotion.

In the Star Dou Great Forest, the Golden Tortoiseshell's auspicious status is second only to the Emperor Beast. If it hadn't courted its own demise by devouring the life-gold at the bottom of the Lake of Life, it could have lived much longer.

It thought it had escaped from Di Tian's grasp, but in reality, its every move was detected by the Silver Dragon King, who was still asleep and recovering from its injuries, so it had not fully woken up.

"I'm sorry, my lord." Di Tian bowed his head in self-reproach.

"It's alright, you've worked so hard all these years." The Silver Dragon King knew of Di Tian's protection over the years. "If we succeed this time, we can restore the glory of the soul beasts!"

Di Tian's eyes flickered. Wasn't this the future he had hoped for? Hundreds of thousands of years of forbearance had been for this moment.

"My lord, when do you intend to be born?"

"A year. I need a year to absorb the golden hawksbill turtle. Let's get it here. Also, tell the auspicious beast to stop wandering around the outer perimeter. The power of the stars' destiny cannot be desecrated by humans!"

"Yes! Yes!" Di Tian said loudly, "I will also have Bi Ji and Zi Ji come along. Bi Ji is a ferocious beast that has been born in the last tens of thousands of years and possesses unparalleled healing abilities. The dragon aura on Zi Ji and me can also help you recover!"

If Qidian's monthly votes reach 80 for the second consecutive month, we'll add another chapter!

These past three or four days have felt like an eternity of 80,000 words a day... I'm starting to feel overwhelmed! I hope you all can continue to support me!!
