Douluo Continent: This Tang San is different

Chapter 562 The Internal and External Divisions of Fortune: External Fortune and Internal Fortune

Upon returning to Wuhun City, Xiao Wu immediately found Tang San, explained Gu Yuena's situation and how she obtained her ninth spirit ring, and released the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

However, at this time, the three-eyed golden lion was only thirty centimeters long, and Xiao Wu held it in her arms, just like a pet.

"So you're Tang San?" The Three-Eyed Golden Lion sized up Tang San, grinning to reveal a mouthful of small, sharp teeth. "You do indeed exude an extremely strong life force."

"Hello." Tang San was genuinely curious about the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, a dragon species. He reached out and touched its head, then took the opportunity to pluck a hair from its head.

Unfortunately, the three-eyed golden lion was in a spirit state at this time, and its hair was also a product of energy. The moment it was plucked, it directly turned into energy and dissipated, unable to retain any useful bloodline information.

Tang San and Electrolux also studied the Soul Spirit together and designed a mechanism to prevent the leakage of its bloodline information, making it impossible for outsiders to replicate it by obtaining the Soul Spirit's hair, blood, or the like.

Moreover, this security mechanism can be set according to the creator of the spirit, which means that this is a protective measure added by Gu Yuena to prevent the Three-Eyed Golden Lion from being mass-produced.

Although Tang San could break the code with some time, since Gu Yuena had given him such a signal, he couldn't make a move.

After all, we still have to give the Silver Dragon King some face.

Also, once I get to know the Three-Eyed Golden Lion better, she might offer to help, which will definitely make the research go much more smoothly.

Why did you pluck my hair?

The three-eyed golden lion bared its teeth, and even though it was just a single hair, it still hurt.

Not to mention that she didn't shed fur when she was still a soul beast, now that she has become a soul spirit and her energy has materialized, her fur is even more sensitive. If a single hair is plucked, it's equivalent to losing cultivation.

Even if it only cost her a minute of cultivation, she would still feel the pain.

"Sorry, I was just a little curious. After all, I've never seen such a cute, beautiful, and furry creature before." Tang San praised the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and released a wisp of his soul power into the eye between its brows.

"Waaaaah~"

Instantly, the three-eyed golden lion trembled all over, its eyes narrowed, and it felt as if its soul had ascended to a place of ultimate bliss, and it cried out joyfully.

"Are you in heat?" Xiao Wu tossed the Three-Eyed Golden Lion aside and wiped her hands in disgust.

"...No." The Three-Eyed Golden Lion was taken aback. After understanding what "going into heat" meant, it was speechless. "Now I understand why you are so powerful. This person is not only a chosen one, but also has extremely special soul power. A wisp of soul power is equivalent to my decades of hard cultivation. You have obtained so much essence..."

"Eek~ Ouch!"

Before she could finish speaking, "Teacup Dog" was kicked away by Xiao Wu, who cursed viciously, "I suddenly realize that accepting this thing's sacrifice was an unwise choice. It dares to say anything and everything, it's really asking for trouble!"

Tang San broke out in a cold sweat, but still coughed and said, "Alright, don't argue with a child. Besides, she's still your spirit. No matter how far you kick her, she'll return to your spirit ring. Tell me about your ninth spirit skill, Fate Domination."

Even Tang San hadn't expected that Xiao Wu would gain such powerful abilities after receiving the sacrifice of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, becoming a being who controls destiny.

By using this skill, Xiao Wu holds the fate of the entire Douluo Star in her hands, and can use this fate to control the destiny of others.

Those with little luck will suffer misfortune even if they stay at home; they might even drown in the latrine while using the toilet.

Those with abundant luck may escape injury even if they jump off a cliff, and may even encounter a reclusive master and obtain treasures.

Tang San calls this type of fortune "external fortune," which is bestowed by heaven and earth.

The only fortune that Xiao Wu can control is external fortune.

Since there is external transportation, there must also be internal transportation.

Internal fortune is determined by a person's knowledge, character, strength, and wisdom. Strong and wise people can attract a large number of followers; those with extensive knowledge will naturally have admirers.

In short, internal fortune can be summarized in one sentence: "If you have a phoenix tree by your side, the phoenix will come to roost."

Therefore, Xiao Wu cannot directly control the internal circulation.

But this doesn't mean that Xiao Wu is helpless against those with abundant internal energy.

After all, people want to have inner luck, but to acquire extensive knowledge and develop great strength, they also need external luck to give them time to grow and come into contact with these things.

As mentioned before, if you're unlucky, you might even drown while using the toilet.

If Xiao Wu is deliberately targeting someone, as long as that person still exists on Douluo Star and needs to rely on the environment of Douluo Star to survive, that is, to drink the water of Douluo Star, eat the food grown on Douluo Star, and breathe the air of Douluo Star, then that person could have an accident at any time.

Even if you hide in the safest place, it may lead to cell mutations, or Douluo Star may directly attract meteorites from outer space and smash them down on you.

Don't say that you carried the water from the mountains yourself or grew the food yourself. As long as you are still within the various ecological cycles of Douluo Star, you will always be subject to the rules of Douluo Star.

Even if one can "transcend the Three Realms and be outside the Five Elements," meaning one can survive in the vast vacuum of the universe without relying on the environment of Douluo Star, in the context of Douluo Continent, that would be reaching the level of a god.

However, as long as you remain on the planet, you will also be bound by its gravity. You can resist gravity and fly away from Douluo Star, but that doesn't mean the gravitational pull that pulls you will disappear.

Of course, the power of Douluo Star's fortune has very little binding force on the power of gods. After all, Douluo Star is one of the 108 small worlds of the God Realm and is governed by the God Realm. No matter how powerful Douluo Star's fortune is, how can it govern the gods of the God Realm?

Even so, Xiao Wu's ability is still very impressive.

However, Tang San still advised Xiao Wu not to use this ability. After all, their minds had not yet transcended the level of mortals, and their position was not high enough. Manipulating the fate of others, even if the will of the entire Douluo Star was on their side, might still backfire on them.

"Don't worry, Third Brother, I'm not the kind of troublemaker who plays with other people's fates." Xiao Wu waved her hand with a grin. "Even gods aren't qualified to manipulate fate, let alone me, who merely controls destiny."

"The true path is to cultivate oneself, increase one's inner strength, and give back to heaven and earth in order to gain external strength."

"The most important thing in mastering destiny is to be objective."

Tang San smiled and said, "I never thought that the carefree little girl from back then could now speak such profound truths. She has really grown up."

"I'm not just good at spouting grand principles." Xiao Wu rolled her eyes at Tang San. With her extensive knowledge of the human body and medicine, she genuinely believed that the bestowal of fortune should be fair and just, just like the five internal organs in the human body, each with its own function and effect, which together form a complete person.

Although fortune varies in quantity, each living being must pay a corresponding price for the portion it receives.

Just like them, having gained their current power, they must give back to heaven and earth, for the world and for themselves. As the old saying goes: every gift from fate has a price tag attached to it.

Of course, she, her third brother, and Guang Ling have already cultivated their primordial spirits and become independent entities. If they really mess things up, they can simply leave Douluo Star.

But that would be too irresponsible.

Moreover, even if you escape that small world, you're still bound by the vast universe...
