Douluo Phoenix

Chapter 156 The Path to Godhood

"Brother Tianmeng, I've always had a question I'd like to ask you."

"Ask me any questions you have."

"Brother Tianmeng, how exactly did you become a million-year soul beast? Logically speaking, soul beasts have to undergo a heavenly tribulation every 10 years, especially a million-year heavenly tribulation, which is unheard of in the world."

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm scratched its head with its tiny hand, a little embarrassed: "Actually, I don't know how I broke through. I just ate a lot of Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Marrow and then kept sleeping until I reached a million years."

"That's not right. The Ten Thousand Year Cold Marrow shouldn't have this effect. I've consumed quite a bit of it myself. You said you fell into an ice cave. Could that ice cave be the Mystic Ice Cave? That would make more sense."

The two of them argued for a while. Tianmeng Ice Silkworm seemed to want to run away, but now it was in the Divine Fire Tower made of extraterrestrial meteorite copper, and Xiao Fei was obviously much stronger than it. In the end, it gave in with tears in its eyes.

"Brother Tianmeng, everyone has said enough, let's stop dawdling and get started."

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm finally made up her mind: "Alright, by the way, this spirit ring of mine might be extremely powerful, and what do you need from the spirit bone?"

"My entire body is now made up of 10-year-old soul bones, so I don't need any more. Brother Tianmeng, pour all your soul power into your soul rings. I need to use your soul power to condense my tenth soul ring."

With a strange cry from the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, the entire space turned blood red, and everything froze.

Xiao Fei was somewhat speechless. Why did every soul beast like to let out a loud cry before sacrificing itself? Did soul beasts have some kind of peculiar fetish?

As time went by, the entire body of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm gradually melted away, transforming into a golden soul ring. Clearly, this soul ring was more powerful than that of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, and its golden color was also purer.

Immediately afterwards, the golden red ring gradually flew towards the position of the ninth spirit ring on Little Flying Qilin's arm.

Accompanying this spirit ring was a monstrous surge of spirit power, seemingly capable of shattering one's entire mind. Xiao Fei steadied his mind and channeled all his spirit power into his Fire Phoenix Martial Soul. The ninth spirit ring of the Qilin Arm was still unstable and could not be channeled into the Qilin Arm.

With the surge of soul power, Xiao Fei felt the gap between himself and the tenth soul ring was getting shallower and shallower. A phantom of a soul ring gradually formed on his Fire Phoenix Martial Soul, but it could never take shape.

The voice of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm echoed in his mind: "Boy, hurry up and use your method to complete your divine position. Without a divine position, you cannot condense the tenth soul ring."

Xiao Fei gritted his teeth and flew quickly to the top of the Divine Fire Tower. He guided the divine fire in the bronze statue's hand into his body and into the Evil God Pearl.

The Evil God Pearl seemed to be stimulated by something, spinning rapidly and merging with the divine fire. However, the Evil God Pearl was clearly much stronger than this wisp of divine fire, and might even devour it.

Without saying a word, he picked up the Phoenix Blood Fruit in his hand and swallowed it in one gulp.

After the Phoenix Blood Fruit entered his stomach, it seemed to merge with Xiao Fei's Fire Phoenix Martial Soul and bloodline. His blood seemed to boil, and this boiling power merged with the divine fire, jointly impacting the Evil God Pearl. The Evil God Pearl gradually melted, and together with the power of the Phoenix bloodline, it merged into every cell and every strand of Xiao Fei's soul.

However, Xiao Fei's soul has not been fully transformed yet, as if something is missing. Moreover, the primordial power on the Evil God Pearl is insufficient due to its own defects, which prevents Xiao Fei from breaking through to the Divine Soul stage and from refining the Asura Divine Sword on his back.

At this moment, Xiao Fei couldn't help but recall the Seven Emotions and Desires Trial that Tang San experienced in the original novel, which seemed to be the transformation of his soul.

Thinking of this, Xiao Fei couldn't help but recall the cultivation system that was rumored online in his previous life. He continuously compressed all his strength and finally formed a golden core. After a long period of nurturing, the golden core cultivated a nascent soul, broke out of the core, and became a nascent soul. Through comprehending the Dao of Heaven and the Dao of Man, the nascent soul and spirit eventually merged, becoming a deity.

Looking back at Douluo Continent, a level 99 Limit Douluo needs to condense a soul core, which is probably the Golden Core realm. Transforming all the soul power in one's body into divine power should be the breakthrough to the Nascent Soul realm. The so-called gods in the Douluo God Realm are probably at the God Transformation realm. And to become a god, one must first become mortal, which means experiencing a lifetime of suffering, just like Tang San in the original story, experiencing the pain of the seven emotions and seven desires.

Thinking of this, Xiao Fei didn't hesitate and jumped out of the Xuanhuo Tower into the lava. Since he lacked the power of origin, where could the power of origin be stronger than the entire planet Douluo Star?

Sure enough, after entering the magma, a trace of primordial power eventually merged into his body.

But it's still too little.

So Xiaofei continued to sink deeper into the magma. He didn't know how far he had sunk, but his primordial power had become even stronger.

But at this moment, the Asura Demon Sword seemed to become agitated, and endless killing intent flowed into Xiao Fei's body, impacting Xiao Fei's soul.

At this moment, Xiao Fei had only one thought in his mind: "To become a god, one must first become a mortal." Joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, hate, and desire—seven images flooded into Xiao Fei's mind, as if he were experiencing them firsthand.

Scenes and fragments of life flashed through Xiao Fei's mind. From his birth in his previous life to his arrival on the Douluo Continent, from the joy of obtaining his first spirit ring to falling in love with the two beauties, Shui Bing'er and Huo Wu, from the battles in the City of Slaughter to his loathing of war...

Xiao Fei gradually succumbed to depravity and lost his way.

Unbeknownst to Xiao Fei, at some point, a giant cocoon, or perhaps a giant egg, seemed to have formed around him. Inside, Xiao Fei, the Evil God Pearl, and even the Asura Demon Sword gradually merged into one.

Just then, Huo Wu, who was cultivating in the Elemental Academy, suddenly felt very uncomfortable in her stomach. Huo Wushuang, who was next to her, rushed over: "Xiao Wu, what's wrong? Something suddenly feels off?"

"I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my heart, and the baby in my belly seemed to be acting strangely, as if something big was about to happen," Huo Wu said, clutching her stomach.

Soon everyone rushed over. The healing-type Soul Master from the Tianshui Academy observed carefully for a while: "The child is fine, but something seems a bit strange. The child seems to have changed, as if he has sensed something."

Yes, Huo Wu is pregnant, and they only found out when Xiao Fei went out.

The child in Huo Wu's womb seemed to have a bloodline connection with Xiao Fei's changes, sensing Xiao Fei's pain and also feeling Xiao Fei's transformation.

"Could something have happened to Xiaofei? I felt a chill just now too."

Huo Wushuang quickly comforted him, "Xiao Wu, don't worry. With Xiao Fei's current strength, no one in the world should be able to do anything to him."

Even in the far north, in the Ice God Palace, Shui Bing'er showed a worried expression while stroking her belly.
