Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue

Chapter 449 The Evergreen Ivy of Life, Breakthrough Once Again

She naturally didn't know Tang San's specific plans, that terrifying grand scheme spanning ten thousand years.

However, she had been a leader of a power before, and by making a slight analogy, she could arrive at a similar line of thought.

This is similar to when she was in the Sun Moon Empire, she deliberately leaked some things, such as rumors or the Soul Guidance Infiltration Plan. What would be the result of these leaked things?

Clearly, these things would pique the curiosity of the three eastern kingdoms, attracting them to investigate, just like Yan Shaozhe who came to acknowledge his ancestors, and the sea maiden and starfish douluo who left their lives in Jingyang City.

Then, the universe is so vast that there must be other planes besides the Douluo plane they are in. If they attract other planes, wouldn't they have to launch a direct attack on the Douluo plane?

Just a few days ago, Electrox's words reminded her that if the undead demiplane successfully upgraded and evolved, it could become similar to a drifting small world. As for how many such small worlds there are in the universe, it is unknown.

It might even attract the covetousness of even more terrifying larger planes.

Above the Douluo plane, there exists a God Realm. If any external plane tries to invade Douluo, it will undoubtedly be stopped by the God Realm.

But what if this plan itself was devised by the Lord of the Gods?

According to Teacher Ye Xishui, Tang San has almost completely taken control of the God Realm Committee. Apart from the God of Destruction who clearly opposes Tang San, the second generation of good and evil are two gods who "only say 'okay, okay, we'll listen to the Sea God's will'," while the Goddess of Life has always adhered to the doctrine of the mean.

If Tang San were to actually bring down the God of Destruction, then things would be truly dangerous.

So, the purpose of summoning enemies is quite obvious.

This is clearly an attempt to divert internal conflicts within the Douluo Continent, allowing the person truly in power to have the greatest say.

If she hadn't appeared, the greatest power would have undoubtedly been in Shrek Academy's hands. In this way, by waging war against external forces, they could have silently suppressed the Sun Moon Empire and other various forces within the Douluo Continent.

This is similar to what happened four thousand years ago when the three kingdoms of Douluo were engaged in a civil war. The Sun Moon Continent collided with them, so under the leadership of Shrek Academy, the three kingdoms made peace on the surface. Then, people saw the powerful strength of Shrek Academy and submitted to it.

Qian Renxue's head ached more and more as she thought about it. She felt that this kind of plan was not something Tang San could come up with.

Did he put all his skill points into scheming after becoming a god? He even targeted the Douluo Continent that helped him become a god.

Now she finally understood why the original Shrek Seven Devils had rushed down to the mortal realm. It was because Tang San had also discovered that his seal was likely to be discovered, or even broken.

He wants to send his former brothers down to the mortal realm to save Shrek Academy, and even to destroy himself and the Sun Moon Empire in time!

A timeline, a cause and effect, a smooth plan slowly took shape in Qian Renxue's mind.

"Such a deep scheme," she said softly.

She understood; she had figured it out.

"What did you say?" Ning Shu saw Qian Renxue's expression change constantly, from initial confusion to horror, and now to blankness.

"It's nothing, I just remembered a bedtime story I heard when I was little." Qian Renxue waved her hand casually. "This place needs to be dealt with quickly."

"What story could have kept you thinking for so long?" Ning Shu patted her head, feeling a little out of sync with the Holy Maiden's train of thought.

"It's a story about encountering other Soul Master teams while hunting in the forest, and instead of cooperating, we ambushed and killed them," Qian Renxue said casually.

Ning Shu was a little confused. She felt that even with her level 98 mental strength, she couldn't quite understand Qian Renxue's thoughts.

Long Xiaoyao flashed to their side at this moment: "Just now, there was a commotion in the Sea God Valley."

"What's wrong with them?" Qian Renxue was not surprised at all. They had accidentally touched the seal set up by the Sea God, so it was normal for them to have a reaction.

"It was captured by the high-altitude satellite soul-guided monitor; the Sea God Douluo's cultivation was interrupted," Long Xiaoyao said solemnly. "Was it something you did that affected him?"

"It's normal for a servant to react when the master's treasure trove has been disturbed," Qian Renxue said. "Will they make a move?"

"It seems not yet, but we might not know in a few days."

Qian Renxue's eyes flickered slightly: "I will stay here for the time being and cultivate in seclusion for a while. The life force here is very abundant, which is perfect for me to try to break through to level 53."

Long Xiaoyao nodded: "Is there anything we need to prepare?"

Qian Renxue asked, "Besides us, has anyone else been to this lake?"

"No, this area has been designated a military restricted zone. Only personnel from the Holy Spirit Laboratory and the Spirit Hall's Zero Research Institute are authorized to approach the lake," Long Xiaoyao said. "Even the engineering teams responsible for mining rare metals can only operate within the outer perimeter."

"Okay, I need to go down to the lake." After saying that, Qian Renxue plunged into the lake.

Long Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment, then looked at Ning Shu: "Second Sister, what just happened over here?"

Ning Shu's expression was strange, and then she told Long Xiaoyao about what had just happened, including the story that Qian Renxue had only mentioned in a brief sentence.

"Is this some kind of metaphor?" Long Xiaoyao touched his gray hair.

"Her Highness must have seen something we can't understand," Ning Shu said, her eyes fixed on the lake. "She's quite an interesting girl; I'd like to learn more about her."

Long Xiaoyao glanced at her: "Then you'd better be careful."

Qian Renxue's identity within the Holy Spirit Cult and the Spirit Hall is now practically public knowledge to the higher-ups. However, aside from the two elders, Long Ye and his brother, most people believe that Qian Renxue is an angelic successor, a descendant, rather than the original Qian Renxue from ten thousand years ago.

A short while later, Qian Renxue's little head appeared on the surface of the lake, and then she swam to the shore.

Ning Shu understood and reached out to cover Long Xiaoyao's eyes.

Qian Renxue chuckled, then used the True Fire of the Sun to dry her clothes and returned to the shore. Afterward, she went to the secret room that Long Xiaoyao had prepared for her and took some plants out of her soul tool.

This is the ivy of life that Electrolux guided her to obtain. She found several of these plants at the bottom of the lake and then picked two of the smaller ones, which should not be considered the main rhizome, but rather some roots.

She didn't show Long Xiaoyao and Ning Shu what she had obtained directly because she was worried that the news would leak and cause trouble; Hansong Cliff was simply too important.

Qian Renxue's eyes darted around, then she waved her small hands and wove them into something resembling a futon, and sat down on it.

"There are still some left, but unfortunately we can't dig out all the roots for now." Qian Renxue pondered for a moment, then wove the remaining roots into a small bag, put the remaining two immortal plants inside, and threw them into the Eternal Tower of the Undead Demiplane.

She took out a piece of herb and swallowed it. It was a Hunyuan leaf she obtained from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, a low-end version of the Hunyuan Immortal Herb, which could enhance the condensation of soul power.

"This time, we must seize the opportunity to break through!"
