Douluo: Dragon King's Divine Elegy

Chapter 248 Resurrecting Wang Qiu'er? Awkward Gu Yue, the day of execution!

"Resurrect the auspicious beast?"

In the office, after hearing Nan Liujing's words, both Di Tian and Bi Ji were dumbfounded.

Gu Yue stood to one side, her expression also somewhat stunned.

She never expected that Nan Liujing had asked her to summon Di Tian and Bi Ji for this very reason.

Di Tian and Bi Ji looked excited, with the former asking hopefully, "Is there any hope that the auspicious beast can be resurrected?"

Nan Liujing gestured for him to calm down: "I can't guarantee whether he can be resurrected, but there might be a chance."

Brigitte covered her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes: "Even if it turns out to be just a dream, I still hope to see the auspicious beast one more time."

Di Tian's eyelids drooped slightly, his expression solemn.

He had no children. When he found the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, he initially used it mostly, since the auspicious beast was born with the power of destiny, which would greatly benefit the development of the entire Star Dou Great Forest. However, as time went on, he developed feelings for the auspicious beast and transformed it into his affection for his daughter.

It's a pity that it was eventually kidnapped by humans.

Since then, the fate of the soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest has completely declined.

Nan Liujing said, "I need to know the exact appearance of the auspicious beast after it transforms. If you remember, please visualize it using your spiritual senses."

Di Tian did not hesitate, his eyes flashing with a strange light.

The spiritual energy gathered in the form of threads, and soon evolved into a lifelike portrait.

Her long, light blue hair cascaded over her shapely hips. Her cold eyes held no gentleness, only majesty and the aloofness of a superior, naturally possessing the haughtiness and scrutiny of a mythical beast. Her features were exquisitely beautiful, and her tightly pursed red lips gave her a stubborn air. She was very tall, probably close to 1.8 meters, yet possessed a slender waist and full breasts, with an excellent figure.

Nan Liujing asked, "You used the image of the daughter of the sea god?"

Biji said helplessly, "Because the auspicious beast had never transformed before. The only time it transformed was when it was influenced by the Goddess of Light in Huo Yuhao's memories. After that, its form was fixed in this way. Normally, the auspicious beast's hair should be golden."

Nanliu nodded, his mental energy sweeping out to memorize every detail of Wang Qiu'er's appearance and figure, and then said, "Alright."

Di Tian did not dissipate his spiritual manifestation. He stared blankly at the auspicious beast's light and shadow, and sighed, "It's quite a sad story. The death of the auspicious beast is precisely the beginning of the decline of us soul beasts."

Speaking of this, Nan Liujing suddenly thought of something: "After the auspicious beast gathered the power of destiny and sacrificed itself to Huo Yuhao, he ascended to the God Realm. Did that power of destiny return to the Star Dou Great Forest?"

As he spoke, Nan Liujing's gaze lingered on Gu Yue for a moment.

It would have been better if I hadn't asked. The moment I did, the atmosphere in the office became incredibly awkward.

Di Tian and Bi Ji hesitated, while Gu Yue awkwardly scratched her cheek with her right index finger.

"So he didn't come back," Nan Liujing said suddenly.

Gu Yue got a little angry when she mentioned this, and snorted coldly: "The power of destiny originally belonged only to the Douluo plane. Even if the auspicious beast sacrificed itself to Huo Yuhao, the power of destiny should have automatically returned when he arrived in the God Realm. But in the end, the power of destiny disappeared completely."

Di Tian glanced at Gu Yue with resentment: "If only you had intervened and saved Huo Yuhao back then, my lord."

Gu Yue glared at him and said coldly, "Do you want me to be exposed to the God Realm sooner?"

Di Tian shrank back and said weakly, "Then you can secretly grant me the strength to fight against the divine artifacts in Huo Yuhao's hands. If it weren't for those divine artifacts, Huo Yuhao would be no match for me."

“Di Tian,” Gu Yue said expressionlessly.

Di Tian's strong body trembled violently, looking as pitiful as a little girl next door, and he subconsciously retreated to Nan Liujing's side.

Gu Yue was taken aback; he couldn't vent his anger even if he wanted to.

Biji was still somewhat saddened by the matter of the auspicious beast, but seeing this scene, her sadness was greatly alleviated.

Nan Liujing coughed lightly and, in his capacity as the male head of the household, said, "The power of destiny doesn't disappear without a reason. Yue'er, do you have any guesses?"

Gu Yue said solemnly, "Either the power of destiny could not be separated because of the sacrifice of the auspicious beast and remained on Huo Yuhao forever, or it was stolen by Tang San."

She paused for a moment, then continued, "The power of destiny also has a special function: it can be used to help stabilize one's divine position and increase the chances of advancement."

Nan Liujing's expression shifted.

To solidify one's divine position and increase the chances of promotion?

"Senior brother, what are your thoughts?" Gu Yue asked.

Nanliu nodded: "I do have some ideas, but whether they can be put into practice depends on whether my layout works."

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore." Nan Liujing's expression turned serious: "The plan targeting the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape can begin now."

"Alright." Gu Yue nodded slightly, her eyes filled with murderous intent.

...

"Hey, big brother."

The tranquil lake was broken by a loud thud, and a giant ape, as large as a mountain, appeared in a few steps and came to the lakeside, its bright yellow eyes looking towards the clear center of the lake.

"Crash."

Water burst open, splashing up a transparent luster, and the massive body of the Azure Dragon rose from the water, standing tall in the center of the lake.

Niu Tian looked down at the giant ape and said in a stern tone, "You've only been in the human world for a few days, how did you pick up so many bad habits of talking nonsense?"

Titan scratched his head: "The human world in this era is much more interesting than the era of Tang San and Huo Yuhao."

Niu Tian said calmly, "Has the Silver Dragon King replied?"

“Not only that,” Titan said, somewhat surprised. “The Silver Dragon King said that Aunt Lan also wants to meet with us brothers in a smaller plane.”

"Aunt Lan?" Niu Tian was surprised upon hearing this. "How do they know each other?"

"I don't know, but the Silver Dragon King's attitude when mentioning Aunt Lan's name was still friendly," Titan said. "It's said that Nan Liujing was lucky enough to kill some kings from the Abyss Plane, seize their primordial energy, and then hand it over to the Golden Ancient Tree for safekeeping. Hey, what Nan Liujing doesn't know is that the Golden Ancient Tree's true form has long since changed hands. Aunt Lan wants to come to this small plane to figure out the limits of our plane's tolerance. She plans to transfer all this energy here to help us recover to the level of priests as soon as possible."

Niu Tian's eyes flickered slightly, and he quickly asked, "How long will it take you to get here?"

"It should be soon." People are in high spirits when they have good news. Seeing his elder brother's peaceful expression, Titan smiled and said, "The Silver Dragon King has prepared the spiritual seeds to control humanity. Now that our small plane has been integrated with life energy, it is no longer in danger. We two brothers even have a chance to return to the level of priests. It's like double happiness."

"Once my cultivation level rises back to that of a Divine Official, I want to go out again and completely kill that Nan Liujing. Maybe if we get rid of him, Tang San will thank us when he returns in the future, and he might even offer two Divine Positions as a reward."

Titan spoke excitedly, while Niu Tian remained calm: "Rather than being trapped in the God Realm after becoming a god, it's better to stay as is. Do you want to stay in the God Realm, which is like a prison, forever?"

Titan's smile gradually faded, and he scratched his head, saying, "That's true, the realm of gods is too restrictive."

Niu Tian said, "However, if we can really raise our cultivation to the level of a Divine Official, we can indeed take action to deal with Nan Liujing. It would be like solving Tang San's problem."

“Alright,” Titan said in a deep voice.

...

The next day.

The light spread across a patch of grass in a small plane, transforming into a portal.

Niu Tian and Titan stood in front of the door in human form, waiting. Soon, several figures appeared in their line of sight.

Silver Dragon King Gu Yue, Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian, ​​and Blue Silver Emperor A Yin.

Niu Tian stepped forward, showing no respect for the Silver Dragon King, the supreme ruler of all soul beasts, and said with his eyes level, "With the Silver Dragon King leading us, it is only a matter of time before we soul beasts regain control of the Douluo Plane."

Gu Yue glanced at him and said calmly, "The spiritual seed has been created. Now we need to discuss how to get humans into the Myriad Beasts Minor Dimension to kill the soul spirits, and the arrangements after the plan succeeds."

Niu Tian said, "I would like to hear the details. Second brother, you take the Silver Dragon King and Di Tian there first."

“Yes.” Titan nodded. “Please, both of you.”

After the three left, Niu Tianping's gaze immediately became respectful: "Aunt Lan."

Ah Yin smiled gently: "I'm sorry to have bothered you two brothers this time."

Niu Tian laughed and said, "Aunt Lan is joking. We are brothers with Tang San, so you are naturally our elder. There is no question of disturbing you."

Ah Yin nodded slightly: "Er Ming should have already told you why I came. I'll be using my divine sense to check this small plane later. I'm letting you know in advance that some special circumstances might arise, so don't worry." "Please feel free to come as you please," Niu Tian said with a smile. Then, he softened his tone, "Aunt Lan, how did you meet the Silver Dragon King?"

Ah Yin's eyes flickered slightly, and she transmitted her voice, "The Silver Dragon King seems to have old injuries, and is completely incomparable to the Golden Dragon King who was suppressed in the forbidden area of ​​the God Realm. This time, we met because she came to the Golden Ancient Tree to seek life energy. I didn't want to pay attention to her, but considering that the Silver Dragon King is still a being above Di Tian in status, I still went out and met with her. Then I learned that you two have a cooperation."

"I see." Niu Tian suddenly realized, his expression puzzled. "You said the Silver Dragon King was injured?"

Ah Yin nodded: "Yes."

Niu Tian's expression became inexplicable.

Seeing this, Ah Yin reminded her, "Don't have any ulterior motives. Even if you are injured, the Silver Dragon King is not someone a priest can mess with. You should cooperate with her properly. When the future mistress returns, the Silver Dragon King will most likely submit. It's not a good time to cause any trouble during this period."

“I understand,” Niu Tian said.

Ah Yin said, "Go on, don't worry about me."

"Please go ahead." Niu Tian had no doubts about Ah Yin, who could call out his second brother's real name, and quickly headed towards the lake.

After Niu Tian left, a special glint flashed in A Yin's beautiful blue eyes.

She vanished from the grass in a flash.

After moving away from where they had been talking, Ah Yin clasped her hands together, and a pure green-gold light suddenly bloomed on her flawless body. In an instant, endless blue silver grass grew rapidly and took root in the earth.

Beside the stone table by the lake.

The four of them sat together.

Gu Yue said calmly, "The higher-ups of the Spirit Pagoda allowed me to call upon soul spirits to enter the Myriad Beasts Minor Dimension. My idea is to disguise the minor dimension as a special space similar to the Spirit Ascension Platform, and then attract human powerhouses to enter. As long as they enter and hunt soul spirits, and increase their own soul spirit's age, they will be passively injected with spiritual seeds. After that, they will definitely be controlled by me. Without the presence of powerful figures, humans are nothing more than fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of others."

Niu Tian and Titan exchanged a glance.

The fact that spirits in this era can increase their lifespan is enough to make any spirit master pursue improvement.

The two brothers unanimously agreed with the Silver Dragon King's idea.

Di Tian interjected, "Given that there are many real soul beasts in the Myriad Beasts Minor Plane, once soul spirits are deployed and soul guidance technology is installed inside, a special area needs to be designated for the real soul spirits to live in before the plan succeeds. Under no circumstances should real soul beasts be allowed to leave without permission."

Niu Tian nodded and said, "We'll handle this."

Titan asked, "What do you plan to do with humanity after the plan succeeds?"

Di Tian shut his mouth, and Gu Yue calmly asked, "What are your opinions?"

Niu Tian pondered for a moment and said, "I do have an idea. You two can listen to it and then give your suggestions."

“You speak,” Gu Yue said.

Niu Tian sorted out what he wanted to say: "May I ask you two, when did the rapid decline in the strength of the elemental energy and laws of the Douluo plane begin?"

This time, Gu Yue remained silent, but Di Tian spoke up: "The Spirit Pagoda shall begin its reckless hunting and capture of soul beasts."

“That’s right,” Niu Tian said solemnly. “Soul beasts need time to grow. Not all soul beasts can improve by turning a year into a hundred or a thousand years. This makes high-level soul beasts increasingly rare. However, powerful soul rings have a great effect on improving soul masters. Therefore, humans prefer to endure hardship for future generations to satisfy their current desires and hunt soul beasts without any scruples. This has caused all the soul beast forests on the Douluo Continent, except for the Star Dou Great Forest, to degenerate into ordinary forests. As a result, the laws of life are out of balance, and the entire plane has slid to the brink of destruction.”

"In addition to the overexploitation of resources by humans, the current Douluo Continent cannot even withstand another war of gods like the one 20,000 years ago."

"So my idea is that once we control the human powerhouses, we should immediately seal off and prohibit humans from using existing soul guidance technology, and at the same time prohibit humans from fusing with artificial soul spirits that are over a thousand years old."

Gu Yue raised an eyebrow and said, "If we continue with sealing and prohibiting, I'm afraid that in less than three hundred years, the human world will regress by at least ten thousand years, and in another three hundred years, it will basically regress to the ancient era. As for the fusion of soul spirits, if this is implemented, then it will be impossible for humanity to give birth to any more Soul Masters at the Soul Saint level."

Titan said in a deep voice, "Only by restricting humanity can we soul beasts return to our homeland and start anew. Only then can the Douluo Plane be restored to its former state."

Gu Yue suddenly asked, "So, we're just going to keep restricting humans like this?"

A strange glint appeared deep in Niu Tian's eyes: "That's right."

Di Tian said calmly, "Tang San is also human. Aren't you afraid that after the God Realm returns, Tang San will see the situation of humans and cause trouble for you or us?"

Niu Tian said frankly, "Tang San also has half soul beast blood in his body, and Douluo Star was almost destroyed. I believe he will not be angry if he sees what we did."

Niu Tian remained expressionless, but his mind was racing.

His suggestion was to wait for Tang San to return, and then for Tang San to personally unseal the sealed soul-guided technology and remove the restrictions on humanity.

In the name of the sea god, in the name of the savior of mankind.

If it succeeds, Tang San will become a legend and myth that will never be forgotten on Douluo Star. This great gift should be enough for Tang San to disregard the laws of the God Realm and give each of the two brothers a real God position, right?

Gu Yue and Di Tian remained silent, as if deep in thought.

Niu Tian and Titan weren't in a hurry either.

Suddenly, a gentle breeze drifted by.

The atmosphere around us became more relaxed.

It happened in a place where no one noticed.

Beneath the grass, silent divine thoughts were drifting in from all directions, finally stopping at the feet of Niu Tian and Titan.

"Shh."

Suddenly, countless blue silver grasses radiating green-gold light burst forth from the soil, their leaves shimmering with crystalline light.

This scene caught the attention of the two brothers.

Titan casually plucked a Blue Silver Grass from the ground, and the light spot detached from the Blue Silver Grass, scattering around the stone table like dust.

Niu Tian glanced at it casually, not paying much attention, assuming that Ah Yin was checking the situation in the small plane.

But this indifference was something neither of them noticed.

Within their spiritual seas, each possessed a colorless seed that trembled slightly.

And this seed is the Plane Seed that represents the Lord of Planes!
"Okay."

Ah Yin's voice was as gentle as a breeze, causing the four people sitting at the stone table to look up at the same time.

"Pretty fast," Titan said casually, almost instinctively.

Niu Tian withdrew his gaze, and when he looked at Gu Yue and Di Tian, ​​a moment of stunned silence appeared on his face.

Not far away, another portal appeared out of nowhere.

A bad feeling inexplicably arose in Niu Tian's heart, but before he could speak, his pupils suddenly shrank.

Inside the portal, a tall and slender figure walked in slowly, a warm smile on his lips.

"Let me introduce myself, my name is Nan Liujing."

Upon hearing this name, Niu Tian's usually calm face seemed to be engulfed in a storm, and he abruptly pulled Titan back.

"Big brother?"

Titan was completely bewildered and hadn't even realized what was happening.

When he followed his elder brother's gaze, his body froze, and he stood there dumbfounded.

It's him!

Nan Liujing walked to Gu Yue's side, gently put his arm around her round, fragrant shoulder, and smiled as he said to Niu Tian and Titan:

"I'm still missing one spirit ring. Who among you is willing to offer it up?"

Dead silence.

In the center of the lake, Niu Tian and Titan's expressions gradually turned grim.
