—------------------—
The execution of five powerful men in one day had a deterrent effect beyond imagination.
After dealing with the trouble, Xu Tianxi prepared to go into seclusion again. He found some people in advance and made overall arrangements.
Xu Sanshi was the first one to be found. Xu Tianxi informed him that the Abyss Plane Node was located near Lingdou City, and asked Xu Sanshi to come forward with a special identity when necessary to help relocate the civilians of the Douling Empire.
Xu Sanshi agreed readily, then asked in confusion, "Third brother, aren't you leading the army this time?"
"No, I've already removed most of the stubborn obstacles from the original three kingdoms. If they still need me to intervene at this point, it would be useless."
Xu Tianxi shook his head and said calmly, "The most urgent task is to deal with the invasion of the abyss. Don't bother me with such trivial matters."
"Well, Third Brother, you are truly a genius, with far-sightedness and vision. You see much further than we do."
Xu Sanshi flattered him, and Xu Tianxi kicked the guy with a scolding and a smile, and told him to practice hard when he returned. The 300,000-year-old ferocious beast, the Jade Stone King, that he brought back from the sea was prepared for him.
Upon learning of this good news, Xu Sanshi expressed his gratitude profusely and left happily.
After he left, Di Tian and Gu Yuena appeared out of thin air. Di Tian touched his chin and said:
"According to what you said, Mountain Dragon King, this Abyssal Plane is very dangerous. Are the Lords of the first thirty-six layers all Ultimate Douluo-level powerhouses?"
"That's right, otherwise I wouldn't have asked you and the Master to go up there and keep an eye on it secretly."
Xu Tianxi nodded, emphasizing the terrifying aspects of the Abyss Plane and the Blood River God-killing Formation, which could allow the master of the formation to kill and become a god, and urged Di Tian to be very careful.
"If the Abyss invades, the impact will be huge, but as long as we can take it in the opposite direction, it will be of great benefit to us. So from now on, I'll trouble you to keep an eye on it."
"Okay, don't worry, the Douluo plane is also the home of our soul beasts, and we won't allow those disgusting things to destroy it!" Di Tian had a serious expression on his face, his words were sonorous and powerful, and there was murderous intent between his brows.
Gu Yuena thought for a moment and said, "The Douluo realm cannot be destroyed by those disgusting things! If necessary, I will return to the god level and meet the Abyss Saint Lord!"
"There's no need to be too anxious. You'd better hide first." Seeing that Gu Yuena wanted to fight, Xu Tianxi hurriedly persuaded her to calm down.
Your brother, King Jinlong, has caused chaos in the God Realm. If the gods in the God Realm find out that you are in the Douluo plane, they may abandon you in the abyss and kill you first to avenge their hatred.
Hearing this, Gu Yuena let out an "ah", and her bright purple eyes suddenly dimmed. She drooped her eyelids and looked a little sad.
She finally had a chance to fight full of energy, damn Golden Dragon King, why did he hit her so hard?
"Ahem, that's enough. This isn't the main point. Also, Di Tian, pay attention to the person in the main formation of the Blood River God-Slaying Formation. This person is very likely the body used by the Abyss Saint Lord to cross over and descend..."
Xu Tianxi gave further instructions, telling him everything, no matter how big or small.
"Okay, don't worry, the master and I are here." Di Tian agreed one by one, made plans, and pulled Gu Yuena into the void.
"It's okay with you here, but this Master seems a bit like he's just making up the numbers..."
Xu Tianxi curled his lips, muttered to himself for a while, activated the Xuanwu summon, and summoned a figure over.
This time, the one summoned was Xu Jiujiu. She opened her beautiful eyes in confusion, took in the surroundings, and said with a strange look on her face:
"Why can't you come find me up there? Why do you have to use this method to get me to the underground villa?"
"It seems safe here. I like to hold meetings here the most."
Xu Tianxi answered casually, then his face turned serious and he said:
"The battle is about to begin. This time, the Sun and Moon Army's plan is to first destroy the Tianhun and the Fighting Spirit, and then besiege Xingluo. If you need to contact your brother for anything, make arrangements early."
Xu Jiujiu had been in the Sun Moon Empire for several years and had a general understanding of its military strength. He knew that the original three kingdoms were definitely no match for them, so he became serious and said:
"My royal brother once said that if you ever return to Xingluo City, he would welcome you with open arms. I didn't expect this day to come so soon, but I believe that my royal brother will definitely make his own decision."
Hearing this, Xu Tianxi nodded and said, "If the day of the siege of Xingluo City really comes, as long as I have time, I will definitely go there."
"Yeah." Xu Jiujiu nodded, his eyes changed, and he took out a bead emitting white starlight from the storage soul guide and said:
"This is my Xingluo Empire's national treasure, the Star God Dzi Bead, which you saw back then. My brother asked me to give it to you when you have achieved great success in your cultivation. Now is the time."
"Star God Dzi Bead? I remember my royal brother said that throughout the Xu family, only those who have reached the Ultimate Douluo level can wield its power, making them invincible under the starry sky."
Xu Tianxi took over the Star God Dzi Bead and after a brief sense, he was able to confirm that it was a genuine artifact, and its quality was no less than that of the Water God Bead. Some parts of it were damaged and needed to be restored.
It gave him a feeling somewhat similar to the Rakshasa Scythe, whose owner had died.
Could this be the relic of a long-deceased first-level deity, dropped into the Douluo plane? The last time a large number of first-level deities perished in the divine realm was probably during the Dragon God War, right? It was truly a long time ago.
"Although you are not yet a Limit Douluo, your strength has already far surpassed that of a Limit Douluo. I believe it will definitely be effective in your hands."
Xu Jiujiu stared at Xu Tianxi and said with emotion: "If I had known that your cultivation speed was so fast, I would have given it to you more than a year ago. Maybe you could have researched something valuable."
"You think too highly of me. I've had so much to do over the past year or so that I can't focus at all."
Xu Tianxi sighed. Time was still too tight for him. If he were given ten years, he could easily arrange everything and face all challenges calmly.
But now, he had to take a risky move, otherwise he would not be able to fight against the abyss plane, nor would he be able to complete his idea in the shortest time to merge the fragments of the Water God and the Sea God's throne to create the most powerful foundation and strength in the history of the continent.
"But now I am certain that you have given me a powerful trump card."
After saying this, Xu Tianxi's consciousness fell into the Star God Bead, which contained almost endless power of faith, as well as some fragments of the divine position. He knew that this was accumulated by the Xu family over the years, and was definitely enough to forge a first-level deity with a lot left over.
The problem is that the Xu family doesn't know how to use the power of faith to repair the Star God Dzi, or perhaps their ancestors didn't have a brilliant figure like the first generation Sea God or Angel God.
Looking at the history of the continent, there are only two of them who can become gods by their own efforts. Moreover, they are the most accomplished people of their generation. In their era, people have long lifespans and it is not difficult for them to live for more than a thousand years. The lifespan of the Extreme Douluo in this era does not exceed three hundred years. It would be strange if they could figure it out.
With such a huge difference in lifespan, it is no wonder that later generations are unable to achieve success. A genius with innate full soul power would have a thousand years to cultivate into an Extreme Douluo.
However, he knew how to use the power of faith to forge the throne of God!
If he wanted to, he could quickly create a star god based on this thing!
Even if it is not used to forge a divine position, such a huge power of faith can be used to refine the martial soul, or even thrown out as a time bomb. Its power will definitely not be worse than the twelve-level fixed-type soul guide shells ten thousand years later, it will only be more powerful.
If the Abyss Saint Lord were to be given something like this unexpectedly, the taste would surely be extremely sour and refreshing...
As for the combat aspect, Xu Tianxi estimated that the reason why the Xu family's history's Extreme Douluo used the Star God Bead to be invincible under the starry sky was probably because their mental strength and physical body could only withstand this level. If he used it, fighting against a god-level strongman would be no problem at all, comparable to a god-level healing soul master and a god-level auxiliary soul master.
Xu Jiujiu was still not sure what level of item she had taken out. Seeing that Xu Tianxi was very satisfied with it, she breathed a sigh of relief and said with a faint smile:
"I'm glad I could help you. I think after you killed those guys from the Clear Sky Sect, you will definitely have to face Tang San, the Sea God from ten thousand years ago. You... must be careful."
Xu Tianxi stared into her eyes and suddenly said, "You don't have to put all your hopes on me. If you are determined to become a god, I can help you."
Xu Jiujiu was stunned for a moment, "Me? Are you kidding me? It's been ten thousand years since Douluo Continent..."
She looked surprised and obviously lacked confidence.
"Those seven people ten thousand years ago took advantage of the times. In terms of talent, how could the geniuses of this era be even slightly inferior to them?"
"I, Xu Tianxi, am as conceited as anyone. Which genius among us wouldn't have shone brightly ten thousand years ago? Old Ji alone can defeat all the geniuses from ten thousand years ago."
Xu Tianxi's face was filled with excitement, his eyes bright, and his tone resonant. Every word he spoke contained the power to pierce gold and break stone. "If our ancestors could do it, why can't we, the descendants, do it? This era also has infinite possibilities!"
After saying this, he didn't wait for a long time to say anything more. He patted her shoulder and said, "Come and retreat with me from now on. This national treasure of your Xu family does contain the opportunity to become a god, and it will be of great benefit to me. However, I already have the path to becoming a god. You are the only one among us who is most suitable for the position of Star God. There is no need to refuse."
Xu Jiujiu raised her beautiful eyes and blinked, then suddenly smiled and said, "As your cultivation has improved, your personality has also become stronger. Is this your true self?"
"People have many sides. Don't be so surprised. You will know more about them in the future." Xu Tianxi said with a faint smile.
"Yes, but I think I already know a lot about you." Xu Jiujiu stared at the man in front of him, his eyes suddenly became vague, and he said in a faint tone:
"If I call you teacher now, you won't kill me to silence me, right?"
Xu Tianxi's expression changed. "What do you mean?"
"It's very simple, just be frank." Xu Jiujiu's cheeks glowed, his eyes became more and more dreamy, he took a step forward, stretched out his arms to hug Xu Tianxi, and whispered in his ear:
"Let me think, the first time we actually met was probably... ten years ago, right? Back then, you pretended to be a master from Shrek's inner courtyard and scared me terribly..."
Xu Tianxi secretly said that what was supposed to happen had finally happened. He sighed softly and looked at her beautiful eyes that were shining brightly. He said:
"I won't ask how you figured that out. Back then, I hated Shrek to the core and did everything I could to get him to do what he wanted. Now I feel ashamed when I think about it."
"I'm sorry, Jiujiu. I went too far back then. I will give you an explanation."
He was too cruel back then, which was the first black mark in his life. Thinking about it now, he felt that it was a bit shameful and he had exaggerated it too much, which brought him unnecessary disaster.
There are also many flaws. Shrek was destroyed, and the genius he pretended to be did not show up. After spending a long time together, he would definitely find some clues.
"Explain? After that incident, I hated Shrek to the core. I wanted to catch you and eat you alive, but I searched all over Shrek and couldn't find you. Today, you finally appeared in front of me. What do you want me to do, teacher?"
Xu Jiujiu spoke in a leisurely tone, with complicated emotions in his eyes.
Xu Tianxi always felt that Xu Jiujiu's "teacher" was very creepy. He opened his mouth slightly and tried to say, "How about you give me two slashes and try it?"
"You have a divine body, how can I compare to you? What knife can make you bleed?" Xu Jiujiu rolled his eyes at him with an expression that said, "Do you think I'm stupid?"
"Then I can only help you practice." Xu Tianxi grabbed Xu Jiujiu's wrist with his backhand, and the surging soul power was about to begin to converge.
After struggling for a long time, he looked fierce and moved closer.
Xu Tianxi suddenly felt a warm breath rushing towards him, and then his lips felt a sharp pain. "You bit me? It shouldn't be that serious, right?"
"A villain like you who has changed his appearance should have been bitten to death long ago. This is the principle you taught me, teacher." Xu Jiujiu echoed with his mental power, with a little more force.
"Jiujiu, you are like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth." Xu Tianxi reminded the other party that he is not Liu Xiahui.
"Haha, then show me how to do it. In the past, you came to see me every night because you practiced so hard. My brother and the two princes misunderstood me and asked me when I would have an heir. You made me suffer so much that I couldn't say anything..."
There was a provocative light dancing in Xu Jiujiu's beautiful eyes, and her words were full of resentment.
"You will regret it..." Xu Tianxi said firmly.
Xu Jiujiu sneered: "What would I regret? If we talk about cultivation, I haven't lost anything anyway... Woo woo..."
Her breathing suddenly became difficult. The man began to change the battlefield and his hands became restless.
Soon, she felt a strong arm go around her legs and lift her up horizontally. She wanted to struggle, but saw the man holding her hands tightly.
"How can you be so teasing, wuwu..."
"If you seek kindness, you will get kindness. If you are willing to accept defeat, you will accept defeat..."
Xu Tianxi held this beautiful and hot body and quickly walked around a rockery screen and came to a soft bed. He used one hand to dishonestly untie her belt.
Behind the screen, the candlelight flickered, and soon the silhouettes became picturesque, swaying in the wind.
At some point, a field of fiery red autumn maple leaves fell in the underground garden, looking like a bright red glow.
