In the place where the Blue Silver King once grew, Tang San planted a Blue Silver Emperor. Although it was not as grand as the martial soul's true form, standing only about twenty meters tall, it was still comparable to a small building. As soon as its roots took hold, all the Blue Silver Grasses in the forest began to cheer.
Thanks to the Blue Silver Emperor, they could now enjoy the nourishment of the earth's power and the light of the sun, moon, and stars. Moreover, the energy of the world in this place became increasingly dense.
Additionally, under the influence of the Blue Silver Emperor, these Blue Silver Grasses would also undergo mutations and evolution, potentially giving rise to new varieties of Blue Silver Grass and perhaps even a new Blue Silver King.
"Great Emperor! You are truly magnificent!" Ah Lan was full of admiration, but what delighted him even more was that by following the Emperor, he would surely be able to break through to the hundredth level in the future and achieve godhood alongside him.
At this moment, the so-called "true god" Ah Lan mentioned also took notice of the changes on Douluo Star—
The Life God King sensed the rich life force from the lower realm and sent a trace of divine consciousness through the spatial channel to once again arrive at Douluo Star.
"Here again?"
The Life God King had already guessed the source of the immense life force. In the blink of an eye, she arrived above the Blue Silver Forest, looking down at the Blue Silver Emperor and the people standing beside it.
"This must be my best successor, and he possesses the power of destruction... I even suspect that the powers of destruction and I might have tried to give birth to a child, with two strands of power falling to the mortal world and merging in a single fetus."
It was no wonder she thought this way; after all, the powers within Tang San were too coincidental. Any first- or second-tier deity encountering such a young individual would likely assume he was a child secretly born of her and destruction playing in the lower realms.
"Unfortunately, he is unwilling to accept the inheritance from me and destruction. Although we merely wanted to experiment to see if two divine positions could coexist within a single person..."
As she pondered, Tang San suddenly looked up and sensed the Life God King's divine consciousness. Their thoughts converged, and the surrounding time and space seemed to freeze, leaving only the two of them.
"Once again, we meet, beautiful Life Goddess," Tang San smiled.
"To think you can sense me actively?" The Life Goddess was surprised. Looking closely, she found that Tang San's soul seemed to have evolved into something akin to a divine soul, though it was still different—extremely profound, resembling the nascent universe. Even she could not discern it fully. "Your soul has reached the level of a god, hasn't it? Although it is not as powerful as my divine soul, it gives me a sense of tranquility like gazing at the starry sky..."
Tang San's primordial spirit, while newly formed and surpassing the rank of a divine king, still lagged significantly in "quantity." Nonetheless, it still moved the Life Goddess. "By the way, do you really not wish to inherit my position? This could save you countless hours of future cultivation. Your soul power is very high and is even beginning to transform towards divine power. Each level you gain in the future will require nearly the soul power of a Titled Douluo of this world, which will take a considerable amount of time."
"That's of no concern." Tang San was not bothered by the slowed cultivation speed. With his ability to fully practice inner alchemy, he could rely entirely on the energy of heaven and earth for sustenance.
Moreover, even if he could not resonate with the entire universe at the moment, he could still resonate with Douluo Star, allowing it to absorb more energy from the external void and convert it into heaven and earth energy.
In the future, as long as he remained on Douluo Star, the heaven and earth energy would continually thrive... Additionally, every cell in his body could passively absorb energy from the void outside the planet, providing nourishment for his growth...
Thus, his cultivation speed would not slow down; in fact, it would continue to accelerate.
"Compared to that—"
Tang San changed the topic, studying the Life God King's divine consciousness with curiosity. "Do gods also gaze at the starry sky?"
"Naturally. Though I am a god, I am still small compared to the vastness of the starry sky." The Life Goddess smiled slightly, with a touch of anticipation. "The universe is always vast and mysterious, attracting both people and gods. Only gods have the privilege to explore it. Yet, to explore the starry sky, gods must first pass on their divine position to others, otherwise, they cannot leave the divine realm."
"It seems that gods are like tomb-keepers," Tang San remarked.
"Tomb-keepers?" The Life Goddess was momentarily taken aback, then quickly understood the implication. She responded gently, "In a way, perhaps. But being a god also represents a form of responsibility."
Tang San neither agreed nor disagreed outwardly, though in his heart he felt that this so-called responsibility was likely a form of restraint on the civilizations governed by the divine realm. Because gods truly existed, all the fundamental questions could be attributed to them.
How did the earth come into being? The gods created it.
How did the oceans form? The gods created them.
How did the forests appear? The gods created them.
This way of thinking could give rise to intelligent individuals, but the accumulation of wisdom would take millennia. It was too slow!
"Is it okay for you to tell me all this?" Tang San asked.
"The future you will inevitably become a god. Even if I occupy the position of the Life Deity, you may not create a new Life Deity, but you can still break through the pinnacle of this world's cultivation: the hundredth level," the Life Goddess smiled kindly, like a mother. "So, would you like to be my child?"
Wait a minute! Isn't this transition a bit too sudden?
Tang San was momentarily stunned, but the Life Goddess continued, "Destruction and I are a couple. You possess both life and destruction attributes. The last time we came together, it was because the Evil God, one of the two supreme gods of the divine realm, noticed you and your companions entering a space he had casually created for beast battles."
As the Life Goddess slowly revealed these secrets, Tang San came to realize the power of goodness and evil. That life-and-death arena was merely a place for beast battles, created effortlessly by the Evil God.
This revelation made Tang San more cautious about the power of a god-king level being. He realized he needed to stay low-key and avoid rash actions. As for the Life Goddess's request...
Having refused the divine position once before, rejecting it again might anger even a god-king as gentle as the Life Goddess.
"Alright, Mother, no problem, Mother," Tang San promptly acknowledged her as his godmother, his sincerity taking the Life Goddess by surprise.
She had thought the conversation was somewhat serious and was just making a light-hearted joke, expecting Tang San to refuse without hesitation. After all, the strong always had their pride...
But where did your pride go?
Then, she saw Tang San list a whole array of demands: clothing, food, soul tool research, travel, school, and so on.
"I'm still underage, irresponsible mother. Please compensate for all my expenses from the past seventeen years so that I can truly experience motherly love," Tang San respectfully handed over a list, formed with divine sense, stretching over three thousand meters.
The Life Goddess felt her fists clench involuntarily...
