Chapter 127 One Heart and One Body
If the Golden Dragon King really escaped the God Realm, he would definitely rush to the Douluo Plane as soon as possible and try to devour the Silver Dragon King so that he could gain control over the position of the Dragon God.
"It's what you think, yet it's not what you think. Only His Majesty himself probably knows the full story."
Di Tian shook his head.
"Our lord only told me that that person's fate has long been inextricably linked with our soul beast race. If we want to recreate the glory of ancient times, we may not be able to do so without his help."
Upon hearing this, Titan pursed his lips, clearly dissatisfied with the ambiguous answer.
What he hates most is when someone speaks in half-truths, leaving people confused.
Niu Tian looked surprised, but didn't dwell on the question too much. Instead, he asked in a deep voice:
"Di Tian, since you've been waiting for us brothers here, the Lord must have already spoken to you about our affairs. What do you intend to show us?"
Di Tian casually conjured a spatial rift in front of him and said in a nonchalant tone:
"You two brothers, come with me. Oh, and there's that woman who's now the matriarch of our soul beast clan. I think you'll need to show her more respect next time you see her."
Niu Tian and Titan, who were about to step towards the spatial rift, both paused upon hearing Di Tian's words. Their faces showed expressions of disbelief, unable to process the immense amount of information contained within.
Titan couldn't help but elbow Niu Tian beside him, lowering his voice and asking in a low, rumbling tone, "Big brother, given Xiao Dong's relationship with that person, what do you think we should call that person from now on?"
Niu Tian was momentarily speechless, and could only say in a deep voice, "It's not even a sure thing yet, why are you thinking so much? If it really doesn't work out, we can just discuss it separately later."
……
In a private room of a teahouse under the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School in Shrek City.
Wang Dong'er's face now showed a completely different expression of "I'm begging for mercy" and "I'm obedient," a stark contrast to her smug and arrogant demeanor just a few minutes ago.
Recalling a few days ago, when she had just returned to her college dormitory, she had bragged about it to Xiao Xiao and Cui Yajie.
I gave a small demonstration of the brilliant results of my hard work during this holiday.
After all, she broke through to the Soul Venerable realm in one fell swoop.
But now, when she curiously asked Ning Tian, Wu Feng, Zhu Lu and the others about their soul power improvement during the holidays, Wang Dong'er was completely speechless.
Huo Yuhao, he definitely did it on purpose!
His own exceptional talent, which he was so proud of, combined with the Haotian Sect's secret techniques and the help of the rare and precious materials in the sect's treasury.
Such a luxurious setup was utterly ineffective against the immortal herbs that Huo Yuhao brought out.
Is this reasonable?
Why can't a few immortal herbs grow in the treasure vault of the Haotian Sect?
Wang Dong'er was extremely envious.
Sitting opposite them, Xiao Xiao and Cui Yajie watched Wang Dong'er's vivid expression change from smug to dejected, and for a moment, they felt a mix of emotions.
A faint aroma of tea wafts through the corridors of the teahouse.
Huo Yuhao was walking side by side with Gu Yuena.
"Dragon Clan Magic Blade..."
Huo Yuhao murmured to himself, processing the information he had just heard from Gu Yuena.
"So, after briefly ascending to the position of Supreme God-King, the Dragon God personally created this divine artifact using his own horn?"
Gu Yuena's voice remained ethereal as she softly explained:
"Yes. That magic sword contains the Dragon God's understanding of the laws of order and judgment, and possesses the power to cut down evil and judge disloyalty. Theoretically, it is a divine artifact specifically used to restrain and judge dragons and other beast-like deities."
"While the war in the divine realm back then was partly due to the machinations of that Yaksha, its essence was still the divine realm council's fear of the dragon god's power and their dread of the potential threat posed by this dragon-type magic sword."
Huo Yuhao frowned slightly.
The true reason for that war in the realm of gods is probably only known to the five first-generation god-kings.
Even though I spent a considerable amount of time in the realm of gods in my previous life, I could only glean some vague and fragmented information about this matter.
It's not hard to understand why the Divine Realm Council is wary of the Dragon God's power.
The power possessed by the Dragon God was too great, and even showed a tendency to surpass the five great god-kings of that time.
But to be wary of a divine artifact primarily used to restrain beast-like deities? That's rather intriguing.
Hearing Gu Yuena say this, Huo Yuhao felt as if he had discovered something.
Yakshas belong to the lineage of evil gods. Could the god of destruction or the god of evil have been the one who orchestrated the war between the gods behind the scenes?
He was not familiar with the first evil god, but based on his understanding of the god of destruction from his previous life.
Huo Yuhao didn't think he would be so easily swayed by a mere Yaksha, thus choosing to engage in a great war with the Dragon God that would affect the entire God Realm and might even shake its foundations.
Moreover, with both the benevolent and the life-giving gods present, the Dragon God shouldn't have lost his mind and insisted on fighting the entire divine realm to the death.
Why did that great war between the gods escalate to such a devastating degree?
It even reached the point where nearly half of the gods in the divine realm perished, and the realm was severely weakened.
There must be a deeper reason behind this.
Huo Yuhao subconsciously turned his head and met Gu Yuena's staring gaze.
"It seems you've already guessed it."
Gu Yuena's voice carried a hint of mockery.
"Perhaps the one truly pulling the strings behind the scenes is the God of Asura."
Although the Asura God is nominally a deity in charge of killing, the core authority he truly controls in the divine realm is actually in charge of judgment and law.
The essence of divine positions can be seen as the embodiment of the laws of the special plane of the divine realm, and an external manifestation of the fundamental power of the plane.
It can enable the inheritor to control power far exceeding their original limits in a short period of time, but it will also impose corresponding constraints and restrictions on the inheritor.
If an inheritor wants to advance further in their divine position, they must continuously improve the part of the laws they govern, which in turn requires helping the divine realm itself to become more perfect and powerful.
The birth of the Dragon Clan's magic sword, this divine artifact containing the laws of order and judgment, undoubtedly directly separated a considerable portion of the authority over judgment from the core laws of the divine realm.
If one day the Dragon Clan's magic blade can successfully advance to a super artifact, then its power may no longer be limited to judging beast gods, but will be able to affect all things in the world.
After all, super artifacts and artifacts are on completely different levels, and their numbers are even limited in each plane.
Even in the realm of gods, only five super artifacts have been created, and theoretically, no more than one super artifact can be created in any other plane outside the realm of gods.
For example, Tang San's Trident of the Sea God was able to advance into a super artifact only by relying on the Douluo Continent.
If the Dragon Clan's magic sword were to advance to a super artifact, it would very likely directly shake the foundation of the Asura God's position.
This is something that no god could tolerate.
However, it was perhaps the impact and subsequent effects of that war in the God Realm that made the first Asura God understand the limitations of the divine position, and prompted him to pass on the divine position to Tang San, while choosing to leave the God Realm to seek a more reasonable source of power.
Having figured out the crux of the matter, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but sigh softly, "In the end, it's still all about profit; the world is bustling, and everyone is chasing after it."
As their thoughts flowed, the two of them had already arrived at the door of the private room they had previously booked.
Huo Yuhao raised his hand, preparing to push open the door.
"And what about you?"
Gu Yuena's slightly cold voice rang out beside him, and her small hand grabbed his wrist, stopping him from pushing the door open.
Huo Yuhao was slightly taken aback and turned to look at Gu Yuena beside him, who had a somewhat inexplicable emotion about her.
"Niu Tian and Titan are, after all, Tang San's subordinates. Keeping them around might actually prove useful in the future."
Besides, I can't possibly ask you to risk being discovered by the gods and personally deal with them, can I?
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena frowned slightly, seemingly not entirely satisfied with the answer.
In her view, all the things Huo Yuhao experienced in his previous life, everything Tang San schemed against him, and all the hardships he endured, Niu Tian and Titan, while not the masterminds, were undoubtedly accomplices.
The things she said when she met with Niu Tian and Titan were merely to temporarily appease these two restless pawns. If Huo Yuhao really wanted to, she could make them disappear completely at any time.
Huo Yuhao reached out and gently smoothed Gu Yuena's brow.
"Are you thinking that I don't need to humble myself like this? That if I just asked, you would not hesitate to kill those two for me and avenge me?"
Gu Yuena didn't speak, but her purple eyes were fixed on him, the meaning of which was self-evident.
Huo Yuhao felt a warmth in his heart, and his voice became even gentler:
"You're always thinking of me, constantly worrying about my safety. Shouldn't I reciprocate by thinking more about you? Aren't we inseparable?"
"What do you mean by 'one heart and one body'?"
Gu Yuena's cheeks puffed out slightly, with a hint of reproach: "You are clearly the matriarch of our Soul Beast clan. As the lord of the Soul Beast clan, isn't it only natural for me to consider your safety?"
As she spoke, Gu Yuena stretched out her small hand and patted her chest, her tone carrying a sense of entitlement.
"Just like you, you always make the girls who like you subconsciously rely on you. You could really rely on me a little more too, couldn't you?"
……
The outer edge of the Starry Sky Forest.
Both Niu Tian and Titan emerged from the three-story, octagonal tower-like building, somewhat dazed.
Titan couldn't help but turn back and glance at the Spirit Tower under construction one last time, then looked around.
Many spirit beasts, according to their different types, are carrying out the transportation and initial production of building materials under the unified command of some spirit attribute spirit beasts.
They even saw a huge, dark gold dinosaur bear carrying a large basket of stone bricks, running towards the Spirit Pagoda.
Although the main construction work was being carried out by the spirit beasts, one could still vaguely see many human figures moving about.
Those humans were servants borrowed by Huo Yuhao from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, so their loyalty was guaranteed to a certain extent. They were mainly responsible for liaison work and procuring items from human society that the soul beasts could not make and that required fine processing.
The scene of humans and spirit beasts cooperating and living in harmony may seem strange, but it is not entirely unacceptable.
What truly shocked them was what they had just seen inside the Spirit Pagoda, which completely overturned their previous understanding.
Titan scratched his head and sighed deeply. "Brother, how come the difference between people is so vast?"
Although the old man Yi gave him the impression that he only possessed god-level spiritual power.
However, the sheer breadth and sophistication of his knowledge system still left him speechless.
Niu Tian chuckled and said, "Everyone has their own expertise. Besides, aren't humans superior to us soul beasts in terms of creativity? Perhaps in the near future, we will be able to use Elder Yi's technology to extract genes from the surviving soul bones and revive some of the extinct soul beasts."
After witnessing firsthand the research and planning within the Spirit Pagoda, Niu Tian felt completely at ease.
At least the Lord didn't really intend to drag the entire Soul Beast race into a hopeless battle with the God Realm.
Perhaps after the Lord reappears as the Dragon God, by migrating to a new plane, he can completely get rid of the God Realm's suppression of the Soul Beast race.
"But brother, how credible is the last thing Old Yi told us about Xiaodong?"
When Titan spoke of this, his large, brownish-yellow eyes also flashed with golden light.
Although he didn't want to suspect anything, this matter involved Wang Dong'er's safety, so he couldn't help but think about it.
Niu Tian said in a deep voice, "Back then, when Tang San sent Xiao Dong down to the mortal realm, he solemnly declared that the existence of the daughter of the God King should not have too much influence on the lower realm, so he specially sealed away her original memories in the God Realm."
He also told us that even if the memory seal is broken in the future, it will not have any negative impact on Xiaodong himself.
But before he left, Elder Yi specifically taught the two of us that method of sealing memories. Doesn't that mean that if we don't believe it, we can try to verify it ourselves?
"So, after the memories are sealed, a new personality really does emerge?"
Titan seemed to be scratching his head and cheeks, as if he wanted to grow a brain.
"Doesn't that mean Xiaodong and Wutong are actually two different people?"
"Whether it is or not, we'll find out by trying it ourselves. It'll just take a little more time anyway."
A fierce glint flashed in Niu Tian's blue eyes.
He thought of the telepathic message that Elder Yi had given him before he left.
Not only did Tang San seal his own daughter's memory without any experience, he even split her soul.
Damn it, is this something a father would do?
"Let's go, second brother. We'll go to the Heavenly Soul Royal Family and use our connections to borrow some death row inmates for our experiments."
