Chapter 130: Tang Hao Arrives at the Elemental Academy.
For the next few days, Xiao Fei focused on studying the Evil God Pearl, the Shura Demon Sword, and the Vast Sea Universe Shade.
He delved most deeply into the Shura Demon Sword. Every time he grasped it, he felt a surge of murderous intent surge within him, somewhat similar to his own Killing God Domain. Through repeated confrontations, the Killing God Domain gradually evolved, transforming into the Shura Domain. However, compared to the Shura Demon Sword, it still seemed worlds apart.
Every time Xiao Fei attempted to engage more deeply with the Shura Demon Sword, waves of a unique power would emanate from it. Under this power, everything seemed to be ants. Even Xiao Fei, with his steadfast resolve, couldn't help but feel a tremor within him.
It was as if he were facing a higher level of suppression. Whether it was his body, his spirit power, or even his soul, it felt like facing a vast chasm. He felt a flicker of understanding, but more of it was a distant, unreachable barrier.
Was this the difference between humans and gods?
He couldn't help but think of Tang San's ninth test as Sea God and Qian Renxue's ninth test as Angel God in the original novel.
The Ninth Trial for the Sea God requires the sacrifice of Poseidon Douluo Poseidon, while the Ninth Trial for the Angel God requires the sacrifice of Qian Daoliu. Their sacrifices seem to be the key to passing the divine trials.
Only after reaching level 99 did one understand the true power of a Limit Douluo. As Poseidon explains in the original novel, cultivating to level 99 is extremely difficult for a normal person. The transition from level 97 to 98 requires a full three hundred years, and the transition from level 98 to 99 requires a full six hundred years of unremitting practice. It's practically unsolvable.
Xiao Fei estimates that to overcome this chasm, a Level 99 Peerless Douluo would need at least five thousand years of practice to truly achieve the breakthrough. The Sea God and the Angel God likely forced their way through through faith.
Tang San and Qian Renxue, on the other hand, relied on the divine power of the previous god.
The pain involved was far greater than that of an ordinary human.
Furthermore, gods are ultimately human, reaching a realm reached when human strength reaches a certain level. This is the realm achieved by a Limit Douluo after condensing their tenth spirit ring.
In the original novel, Tang San successively sheds seven spirit bones, each one subjected to the erosion of the Seagod's divine power. Ultimately, all merge into one, forming Tang San's divine bone. Finally, he repairs the Seagod's Heart and fuses it with the Seagod's Trident to become a divinely inherited artifact.
This process involves the pain of bone stripping and the test of the seven emotions and seven desires.
This test involves experiencing joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, hate, and desire from beginning to end. It is through this test that Tang San's soul becomes a divine soul, and his entire body of spirit bones forms a complete set of Seagod armor. Tang San's former Eight Spider Lance also transforms into the Eight Wings of the Seagod.
In other words, the first prerequisite for becoming a god is to possess a full set of 100,000-year spirit bones, which fuses all the spirit bones into a single attribute, forming a divine armor. Finally, the soul undergoes a transformation, transforming into a divine soul.
All of this requires energy, a vast amount of it.
Xiao Fei shook his head and sighed. Although he now had the divine artifacts, they seemed unable to fully recognize their masters and could only be used with difficulty. He had no idea how to break through to become a divine soul. However, he could focus on forming armor with soul bones.
Xiao Fei now had five hundred thousand year soul bones and two external soul bones that had reached the ninety thousand year level. He only needed the most important torso bones.
It seemed that he needed to find the Fire Temple. Xiao Fei already had some ideas about the Fire Temple.
"It seems that I need to set out to find the Fire Temple as soon as possible. Time is very tight now." Xiao Fei muttered to himself.
One day, just as Xiao Fei was preparing to practice, he felt a slight fluctuation in soul power.
"Since you're here, come out."
A tall figure emerged from the darkness. It was Tang Hao.
Tang Hao seemed much better than before, and his spirits were much better too. No longer wearing his usual shabby clothes, he was now dressed in a tighter leather suit, revealing his exaggerated figure, especially his muscular lines, which were even more toned than those of a bodybuilder in his previous life.
Xiao Fei waved his hand gently, and a cup of tea appeared across the table. "Uncle Hao, please sit down and have some tea first!"
Without a word, Tang Hao sat down across from Xiao Fei and began to drink.
"Uncle Hao, how come you have time to come to the Elemental Academy today?"
Tang Hao asked in a deep voice: "How do you know that the King of Slaughter is my grandfather?"
"I just have a guess. There are very few peerless Douluos in this world, and each of them is famous all over the world. The King of Slaughter has been staying in the Slaughter City all the time. It is impossible for him to become a peerless Douluo so easily."
"With the strength of the King of Slaughter, he is definitely not a simple person. I guess he should be a peerless Douluo. There are very few people in the world who can become a peerless Douluo, and there are even fewer missing peerless Douluos. Tang Chen, the old leader of the Haotian Sect, is a peerless Douluo, almost invincible in the world. I don't believe there is any place that can trap him, so I guess that the King of Slaughter is Tang Chen."
"Uncle Hao, you should have been to the Slaughter City. What do you think?"
"I have indeed been to the Slaughter City, and I am basically certain that the King of Slaughter is my grandfather, so I want to rescue my grandfather."
Xiao Fei shook his head: "Uncle Hao, I'm really embarrassed. Last time, I promised the King of Slaughter that I would not attack the Slaughter City. Besides, even if we go to the Slaughter City, it will be meaningless."
"Besides, the old Sect Master Tang Chen should have given you the letter and told you his current physical condition. If you rescue the old Sect Master Tang Chen rashly, it will probably harm him instead."
Tang Hao's face was a little grim: "Are you going to let me watch my grandfather become like this?"
"That depends on your choice. Let the old Sect Master Tang Chen live like this. Maybe there will be a chance to revive the old Sect Master Tang Chen in the future, or even recover."
"Or maybe you could just go all out to rescue old Sect Master Tang Chen and then watch him die."
Tang Hao looked at Xiao Fei coldly, "Why would you do that? What good would it do you?"
Xiao Fei said coldly, "Uncle Hao, have you mistaken me? I didn't do anything from the beginning to the end. Even when I took Yang Wudi and Niu Gao to the Slaughter City, it was only to sever their last ties with the Haotian Sect."
"Besides, the news about old Sect Master Tang Chen, the letters, and the Haotian Order were all brought out by our Elemental Academy and handed over to you. Do you think these are wrong? We at the Elemental Academy don't owe you anything."
After hearing Xiao Fei's words, Tang Hao seemed to calm down. The two of them remained in a strangely quiet environment, neither of them wanting to speak for a while.
