—------------------—
Di Tian's grief lasted for three days. He shed tears silently, sometimes crying and sometimes laughing. Gu Zhaoqiu and Gu Yuena's attempts to comfort him were of no use.
Finally, he looked at the Dragon God's consciousness with extremely complicated emotions, and his body shook, flying out of the Undead Demiplane.
"I want to be alone, so you don't have to worry about me."
Di Tian did not stay at the Golden Tree to practice, but flew directly towards the Star Dou Forest. It was unknown what his intention was.
Biji and Ziji hurriedly followed. Xiong Jun hesitated for a moment, forced a smile on his face, and said goodbye to Gu Zhaoqiu.
"Anyway, I won't become a god for the time being if I stay here, and my strength won't improve. I'm going to go back and check on my little bears and grandchildren first."
"Practice hard, the future of our Xingdou Great Forest depends on you, little ancestor."
As a fellow star beast, and having called the Silver Dragon King, half of the Dragon God, his master for so many years under the leadership of Di Tian, it was impossible for Lord Bear not to feel complicated when he suddenly learned that the restriction that prevented countless soul beasts from becoming gods was created by the Dragon God, and that every hundred thousand years of heavenly tribulation was caused by him.
Even with his big heart, he couldn't easily accept this cold fact. It was too unfair and too infuriating.
Fortunately, the Silver Dragon King is different from the real Dragon God. She doesn't have the Dragon God's strength, nor does she have the Dragon God's madness. Her silly and cute look is also very adorable, Xiong Jun thought as he glanced at Gu Yuena.
However, from now on, it will be impossible for him to respect Gu Yuena as much as before. If he has to choose a person to be in charge of the next generation, he will support Gu Zhaoqiu, whom he has watched grow up.
The auspicious beast looks reliable and can protect them in their cultivation and overcoming tribulations. It is completely different from the Dragon God, and no soul beast would have any objection.
…
"The Dragon God once allowed the Beastmen to ascend to the summit of this universe, but he also personally brought them to ruin. It's truly ironic that so many loyal subordinates like Di Tian have suffered at his hands."
Under the golden tree, Xu Tianxi watched the four ferocious beasts leave and sighed slightly. The Dragon God had both merits and faults, and now it seemed that his faults outweighed his merits.
There are many powerful dragons like Di Tian who are loyal, considerate and fight for the dragon clan wholeheartedly. He is just the only second-generation dragon king who survived among those dragons.
The number of real dragons that died tragically due to the mistakes of the Dragon God is far more than just those in the Dragon Valley. Other dragon kings and beast kings have also died in the same way, but even their corpses cannot be found.
"This shows that for a leader, reason is always the most important." Electrolux's eyes flickered, and he stroked his beard as he expressed his opinion.
"That's right. Being able to fight is secondary. If you don't have leadership skills, you can't participate in decision-making and can only become a Grand Elder with a fighting power base."
Xu Tianxi always believed that it was necessary to thoroughly clarify the responsibilities of the decision-making level in terms of power allocation. Those who can fight but have no brains should either learn to use their brains or not be allowed to participate in decision-making.
Throughout history, many major forces have been unlucky because of the reckless behavior of powerful decision-makers in a certain generation, which brought disaster to the entire force, such as Shrek Xuanzi.
The final battle between the two gods of the Spirit Hall was indeed lost due to the background. The four opposing gods stopped acting, and Tang San was resurrected after dying once, but if they didn't have so many psychedelic operations, Sea God and Old Shura would not have stood a chance.
"Okay, don't think too much about these things. Think about what to do in the future. When do you plan to ascend to the divine realm?"
Gu Zhaoqiu turned her head to look at Xu Tianxi, her beautiful eyes sparkling.
In the past five years, she has been reborn and her strength has soared, but Xu Tianxi's progress is no slower than hers, and he has even improved more.
Although the lower world lacks the immortal spirit of the divine world, the giant starry sky formation and the rising dragon platform that Xu Tianxi built and continuously improved on his own can make up for it. He also often goes to look for the dragon god's consciousness as a research subject.
After absorbing a large amount of the Golden Dragon King's bloodline, she and Gu Yuena were unexpectedly able to activate a martial soul fusion technique, allowing the power of the gold and silver dragon kings to unite into one. However, in a battle half a year ago, their martial soul fusion techniques were no match for Xu Tianxi alone.
"I haven't spent enough time in the lower realms, but I'm in no hurry to ascend. So many gods are in a hurry to escape, which shows that life in the divine realm must be very boring."
"It's easier to go up than to come down. I guess once I go up, it will be hard for me to get back down."
Xu Tianxi shook his head and chuckled. "Over the past five years, I've gained many insights from cultivation, whether observing the stars or exploring my inner spiritual potential. The human body is a treasure, and so is the starry sky. My goals go beyond this."
"Sometimes I wonder, on the path of cultivation, how high can one's soul power be considered high? It's never high enough, sister. The soul power level is never high enough."
"We are still young, and the future holds infinite possibilities. I will not let this throne restrict my future. I still want to see higher skies and more distant stars."
Gu Zhaoqiu curled his lips, thinking that Xu Tianxi's determination to practice was too firm. He loved practicing unrestrainedly throughout his life and never stopped for a moment.
"I heard from Sister Na'er that your divine power has reached the level of a half-step God King, and the quality of your divine power far exceeds that of a true God King. You are working so hard, it really forces us to have no time to rest..."
"Haha, thank you so much. I'm just trying to motivate you. The Gold and Silver Dragon King is only half of the Dragon God, but its potential is far greater than that. From what I can see now, your sister has developed less than 30% of her power. You're better off, at 50% to 60%."
Xu Tianxi said seriously that in the past five years, his divine power had increased by more than four levels every year on average, and he had barely broken through to the 140th level, making him a half-step divine king. His various insights also increased rapidly.
At this point, he is truly fearless of everything, and his divine eyes can see through the essence of almost everything in this world.
Gu Zhaoqiu glanced at the dragon robe on the other person, curled his lips, and said with a smile: "You will soon ascend the throne and become emperor. Do you need our soul beast clan to prepare something to celebrate you?"
"I never care about these things. There is no need to waste people's time and money."
Xu Tianxi declined, then said, "But you guys are definitely here to watch the fun, so please give me some face."
"Of course, we have such a special relationship. Di Tian is exhausted, and no one else can succeed him. I am now the official leader of the Star Dou Great Forest, the king of the dragon clan, and you are my queen."
Gu Zhaoqiu gave a very playful smile, and was very happy to see Xu Tianxi's frown.
"...My dear sister, where does this title come from?"
Xu Tianxi stared at the other person's beautiful eyes, suspecting that the other person had been led astray by Gu Yuena.
Why do all the dragon kings these days like this? Have you forgotten the scene when you two joined forces and returned defeated?
"Haha, you always like to call me sister. Don't think I don't know what's going on in your mind."
Gu Zhaoqiu retorted, her snow-white cheeks glowing, and her beautiful eyes were full of autumnal light, like two clear springs flowing.
"Don't talk nonsense. I suddenly remembered that I have something important to discuss with you." Xu Tianxi said.
Seeing Xu Tianxi's serious expression, Gu Zhaoqiu realized that he might have observed something during his retreat. He had enjoyed traveling in the outer space in recent years and often made surprising discoveries. He asked seriously, "What is it?"
"It's very important. Let's talk alone." Xu Tianxi said, raising his finger and pointing out circles of space ripples, which turned into a circular vortex and led Gu Zhaoqiu into it.
"Isn't this the demiplane you created yourself? I remember you called this demiplane the Golden Dragon Fantasy Realm?"
As you step into the whirlpool, the light and shadow change, and a real and beautiful picture appears before your eyes, with undulating mountains and gurgling water. Many of the scenes are no different from those in the Star Forest, and some plants are actually transplanted from the Star Forest.
"Yes, this space was built by me personally. It's perfect for you and me to chat."
Xu Tianxi said, "I have set up multiple mental illusion arrays and spatial killing arrays in this demiplane. Even a God King cannot enter."
Seeing Xu Tianxi pull out his trump card, Gu Zhaoqiu's expression became even more serious. He said, "Could it be that you discovered something about the dragon clan and the dragon god outside the universe? If so, my sister and I will go with you immediately..."
"Yes and no, dear sister, you think too much."
Xu Tianxi held her voluptuous and fragrant body from behind, his palm slid across her creamy skin and fell to the bend of her legs. He lifted her up horizontally and walked towards the depths of the demiplane.
As the light and shadow change, pavilions and palaces with flying eaves and brackets appear, like objects from immortals.
"What are you going to do?" Gu Zhaoqiu widened her beautiful eyes and scolded.
"I just came out of seclusion and dealt with that mischievous Ye Guyi, and you're here again. My sister, a peerless beauty, has become the new queen of the dragon clan...
Don't move, or I'll bring your sister with me."
Xu Tianxi said, "It's okay to take advantage of me in name only, but being teased by you feels too passive. It's just like when we first met. You're so strong, I can't fall behind."
"You bastard, I shouldn't have believed your nonsense."
Gu Zhaoqiu's beautiful eyes changed, and the aura of the Golden Dragon King burst out, transforming into pieces of golden dragon scales.
"Heh, I haven't seen you for a while. Your eloquence has improved, but I wonder if your other skills have improved. When a dragon girl is in love, her dragon scales will fade."
Xu Tianxi grabbed her hands, sealed the combat power of the second-generation Golden Dragon King in a few seconds, and gently placed her on the bed.
Gu Zhaoqiu glared at Xu Tianxi angrily, showing an appearance of preferring death to surrender. Xu Tianxi curled the corners of his mouth, pressed down on her thin shoulders, and then kissed her scarlet lips. His hands quickly became restless, surveying the mountains and rivers.
"The Golden Dragon King is truly a tonic. Sister has benefited greatly from it."
"Don't talk nonsense, it's not serious."
After a moment, the slender feathered robe on Gu Zhaoqiu's body was taken off, like a cluster of flying feathers, falling like flowers and flowing water.
At some point, Xu Tianxi's voice rang out.
"Actually, I really want to know what you said to Di Tian that made him cheer up again. Sister, can you satisfy my curiosity?"
"I won't tell you."
"That's right, you have to give gifts first when asking for help."
…
"A-choo..."
In the God Realm, Rong Nianbing sneezed inexplicably and asked the Seven Elemental Gods who came to eat outside:
"Everyone, is there anything particularly exciting happening in the God Realm recently? I'm suddenly feeling a bit anxious for no apparent reason."
"This is my spiritual perception as a true God. It shouldn't be wrong."
