Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as the Rock King Emperor, Wandering the Mortal World

Chapter 434: The one who cares most about the big picture is not actually involved in it.

While things were relatively peaceful in Zhongli Manor, a major battle was taking place outside Tiandou City.

A great battle between two of the most outstanding Soul Warriors, both of whom are inheritors of divine power.

"You...you have no sportsmanship!"

Du Siji covered one eye and roared at Xiao Feilian.

He didn't know what had gotten into Xiao Feilian, insisting on having a match with him.

Regardless of the reason or purpose, he had no reason to refuse.

To everyone's surprise, Xiao Feilian immediately drew the sword Zhongli had given her upon entering the arena. She didn't even use the sword's sharpness; instead, she simply cast a shield around herself and began to beat him up...

They were all "old rivals," and Du Siji naturally knew how sharp the sword was, and even more so how terrifying its shield was.

That's why, during his divine examination, he needed to have Xiaofei practice using this sword.

He couldn't even break through the shield, so how could he fight?

That time, he won, though not in a very honorable way, but he still won.

"If you want to beat me up, just say so. I wouldn't mind if you said so, but doing it this way just makes things pointless!"

"I'm forced to resist, yet I can't!"

Poisonous Seasons was devastated. Was this woman holding a grudge? She just slapped him in the face...

"If you can't fight back, then just admit defeat."

Xiao Feilian said calmly, this was her first test, and she couldn't afford to fail.

"Admit defeat?"

"Hehehe~"

Poisonous Seasons let out a long howl, its voice tinged with sorrow.

He always felt that the Vulcan's divine weapon was no more than scrap metal compared to this sword.

Despite wielding the divine weapon, he couldn't harm Xiao Feilian in the slightest.

The Emperor is so biased!

"A real man sheds blood, not tears. To admit defeat is absolutely out of the question!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Feilian narrowed his eyes slightly and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

Time passed, and two hours later.

"A true man is one who can bend and stretch, and endure what ordinary people cannot endure, in order to achieve great things."

"I give up!"

Poison Four Seasons, his face bruised and swollen, said that he had used every means at his disposal, yet he still hadn't managed to harm the other party in the slightest.

Silver-level second awakening, divine skills, divine artifacts... none of it mattered.

If we don't admit defeat, we'll just end up getting beaten up.

"Now can you tell me why you hit me?"

Seeing Xiao Feilian put away his sword, Du Siji sat down on the ground and said weakly.

"Divine Test".

"A divine test???"

For a fleeting moment, Poison Seasons' worldview crumbled.

She's already this strong, how could a god still come knocking on her door?

Du Siji was speechless for a moment, stunned on the spot.

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he said with a solemn expression, "Could it be the inheritance of some third-level god, or even a second-level god?"

He did hope that Xiao Feilian could become stronger, but he was afraid that Xiao Feilian would stop at nothing to become a god and accept any kind of divine position.

You must understand that once the divine position is passed down, there's no turning back.

Once it begins, it's either death or godhood.

"Divine inheritance also has different levels. A third-level deity in the divine realm is only slightly stronger than a Celestial Hunter or a High Priest."

"Next are the second-level gods..."

"If your divine test is for a third-level god or a second-level god..."

Before Du Siji could finish speaking, a voice rang in his mind.

The voice sounded extremely helpless and speechless, and even more conflicted.

"Poisonous Four Seasons Kid, stop embarrassing yourself."

"The divine inheritance she received is that of the God of Destruction, one of the five supreme gods!"

"If you don't have some opportunity to bring your divine position to the realm of God-King, even if you become a god, you will never be her match in this lifetime."

Upon hearing this, Du Siji swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue, and stood there dumbfounded.

One of the five supreme gods, the God of Destruction?

Good grief, does that mean Poison Four Seasons will never have a chance to turn around and become the boss again in his lifetime?

"No!!!"

Poisonous Seasons spread its arms wide and roared to the sky.

At that moment, even though it wasn't snowing, he felt as if it were snowing heavily.

It was truly a scene of snowflakes falling gently.

Seeing Du Siji's state, Xiao Feilian walked towards the Tiandou Royal Academy on his own.

"It seems you already know. Well then, goodbye."

"Damn it!"

Poison Seasons clenched his fists, his face filled with resentment.

"Xiao Feilian, I will definitely surpass you!"

"You just wait!"

"Then you'd better work hard. Advancing to godhood is not easy."

Seeing Xiao Feilian walk further and further away, Du Siji endured the pain on his face and forced a smile.

"That's what makes it challenging. If everything were perfect from the start, where would the motivation to move forward come from?"

"You're just standing at the finish line, while I keep moving forward. One day, I'll be by your side."

Du Siji murmured, a glimmer of clarity flashing in her eyes.

He felt no jealousy, only a stronger fighting spirit.

Seeing Poison Four Seasons' performance, Vulcan nodded in satisfaction.

This child's personality is exactly the same as his when he was young, and even more so.

A spirit of never giving up, and the perseverance to constantly surpass oneself and move forward.

"Young man, I have high hopes for you. You will definitely be able to elevate the position of God of Fire to the highest divine position!"

"No, I will surpass the supreme!"

"You're bragging..."

The man and the god smiled at the same time. The man seemed to see a bright future, while the god saw a past he longed for.

Zhongli Mansion.

After finishing their meal, Qian Renxue and the other two left, each with a slight smile on their face.

She achieved her goal, and the result was relatively good.

At this moment, Zhongli, who was drinking tea, nodded subconsciously.

Xiao Feilian used his power, and he sensed it in an instant.

They thought she was in danger, but unexpectedly, she actually received the inheritance of the God of Destruction.

"It's surprising that the God of Destruction has passed on his divine position..."

Logically speaking, someone with such a destructive nature would think twice before passing on the divine throne.

He had many factors to consider, such as the development of the divine realm and whether the Goddess of Life would also pass on her divine position.

This person can be described as a workaholic in the divine realm. The fact that he so easily passed on his divine position is truly puzzling to Zhong Li.

What Zhongli didn't know was that it was because of his trip to the God Realm that Destruction saw the true face of life.

The life that cares most about the big picture is not part of it, but instead carries the burden of destruction.

His destruction is a result of being a victim of injustice.

He couldn't live like that anymore!

Anyway, there's no future for him and his life, so since there's no future, it's better to draw a clear line sooner rather than later.

"Mo... Zhongli, what's wrong with you?"

Ruo Tuo, who was sitting opposite Zhong Li, asked the question.

He noticed that Zhongli was frowning even while drinking tea, so he figured something must have happened.

Ruo Tuo still prefers to call Zhongli Morax, after all, it's a name that's been used for thousands of years, and it's quite difficult to change it.

"Rodha, it's nothing, it's just that something unexpected happened."
