Inside the tent, Jiang Qianhai lay on a thick, soft mat with his hands pillowed behind his head. Not far away, Xue Qinghe was lying there too, though his expression was somewhat stiff.
There was enough space for one person between them.
At that moment, both of them were watching the stars through the one-way transparent roof.
Though Xue Qinghe did want to ask questions, how could fishing have that many questions?
Before long, he reached the point where he had no questions left to ask.
So he could only change the topic.
"Brother Qianhai, do you think every shining star in the sky represents a Deity in the God Realm?"
Jiang Qianhai looked at the stars overhead, thought for a moment, and said, "Most likely not. Based on my guess, the God Realm, like Douluo Continent, isn't infinitely large, so the number of Deities it can hold must be limited too. At the very least, there definitely can't be as many as there are stars in the sky."
Xue Qinghe looked at Jiang Qianhai in surprise. He had not expected Jiang Qianhai to actually know things about the God Realm.
One had to know that their Qian Family only knew some information about the God Realm because they had a certain connection to the Angel God. But how did Jiang Qianhai know?
Could it be that he's like our Qian Family and has a connection to some Deity?
That seemed to be the only possibility.
Xue Qinghe became even more certain that Jiang Qianhai possessed a Deity inheritance.
In truth, the reason Jiang Qianhai had some understanding of the God Realm was entirely because he had inferred it from the fact that becoming a god could only be done through inheritance.
This could be viewed as one radish for one pit. If that pit had not yet been occupied by a radish, then someone who chose that direction would have a chance to cultivate into a god by themselves. But if there was already a radish in that pit, then you could only wait for that radish to die or voluntarily give up the pit.
What everyone knew now was that if one wanted to become a god, one could only inherit a god position.
Did that not prove the positions had already been filled long ago?
Becoming a god was unimaginably difficult. Even with the accumulation of time, that number would not be too high. Yet even so, all the positions could be filled. That said a lot.
"What's wrong?"
When Jiang Qianhai did not hear a response, he could not help turning his head over in confusion.
Xue Qinghe shook his head. "Nothing. I just didn't expect Brother Qianhai to understand the God Realm as well."
"I was wondering, are Deities really that powerful?"
He had thought of Spirit Hall's plans.
Perhaps in the eyes of Deities, they were like a play being performed onstage?
Jiang Qianhai looked completely indifferent. "At the end of the day, Deities are just a group of people with great strength. If you can become stronger than them, you could make them call you a god."
"A group of people with great strength?"
Xue Qinghe's eyes widened slightly. Their Qian Family worshiped the Angel God. This kind of blasphemous thought... was far too treasonous.
"Yeah. They all have emotions and desires. Is there any difference?"
"Putting it that way... that is indeed true."
"Exactly. Gods are also people who cultivated their way up. Maybe in the future, you'll be the Deity others worship."
Hearing that, Xue Qinghe laughed loudly. "Brother Qianhai's ideas truly have no precedent. But Deities and the like are beyond my reach. After all, becoming a god is unimaginably difficult."
In his heart, Xue Qinghe felt more and more that Jiang Qianhai was special. Who on Douluo Continent dared disrespect the gods? Yet he openly said that Deities were merely mortals, and said it so convincingly that even he, a trial-taker of the Angel God, felt somewhat shaken.
But because of that, he valued Jiang Qianhai even more.
Without a certain amount of confidence, who would dare say such a thing?
Xue Qinghe's heart stirred. He wondered if Jiang Qianhai might be an inheritor of one of the Five Supreme Gods.
It was possible! And very possible!
He had to win him over!
After they chatted for a long while, Xue Qinghe felt a hint of drowsiness. Feeling that his goal had more or less been achieved, he glanced at Jiang Qianhai, who was still looking at the stars, then shifted his body a little farther away before finally closing his eyes warily.
Valuing him was one thing, but vigilance could not be lacking.
In truth, Jiang Qianhai was not looking at the stars. What he saw was the system panel invisible to others.
Midnight had passed. The system's settlement had arrived!
Ding! Calculating today's gains. Calculation complete. Beginning settlement. Settlement result: Experience gained today *3
He took a moment to glance at his experience.
Experience Points: 1300000
One million three hundred thousand. He was still more than halfway away from advancing to Three-Star Battle King.
In fact, his previous daily settlements had basically multiplied that day's experience by some amount. Otherwise, Jiang Qianhai could not possibly have risen to the Battle King level so quickly.
Experience was only one part of it. More importantly, he had no bottlenecks. As long as he had enough experience, he could keep leveling up.
As for situations where some Dou Huang got stuck at Dou Zong for a lifetime, he had no chance to experience them.
However, the Profound High-Rank Blaze Art was already somewhat weak for him at the Battle King level. Thirty experience per minute meant only 43,200 in twenty-four hours.
And to advance from Two-Star Battle King to Three-Star Battle King, he needed a full three million experience. Converted, that meant he would have to fish here nonstop for seventy days just to take another step forward.
Even factoring in the doubled experience from the daily settlement, he would still need twenty-four days of nonstop fishing.
But how could he possibly keep going twenty-four hours a day, nonstop, for twenty-four days straight?
So that time would have to be extended. Even fifty days might not be enough.
That speed was just far too slow.
But now, this problem was about to be solved, because he had obtained a new strange fire!
The Three Thousand Burning Flame Fire ranked ninth on the Strange Fire Ranking, three places higher than the Bone Spirit Cold Fire. The improvement it brought definitely could not be underestimated.
It was just that...
Jiang Qianhai glanced at Xue Qinghe, who was sleeping quietly not far away, and was slightly surprised.
He actually fell asleep!
He trusts me that much?
Then again, it's not like I'm after anything from him.
System, will I still pass out when devouring this strange fire?
After system evaluation, the Fellow Angler's willpower is still somewhat short of the passing line, so you will fall unconscious.
He would still pass out?
About how long will I be unconscious this time?
Anywhere from one minute to six hours.
The corner of Jiang Qianhai's mouth twitched, but this result was still acceptable. He would just treat it as sleeping!
After carefully sensing his surroundings and discovering that Xue Qinghe's guards were still dutifully keeping watch, he relaxed.
As his thoughts touched the three words "Can Be Devoured" behind the Three Thousand Burning Flame Fire, Jiang Qianhai peacefully passed out once again.
That familiar, sour thrill~
"Brother Qianhai! Brother Qianhai!"
A hazy voice sounded beside his ear. Feeling someone pushing him, Jiang Qianhai's eyelids twitched.
When he opened his eyes, he saw Xue Qinghe's face, brows furrowed.
"Brother Qianhai, do you always sleep this deeply? I called you so many times and still couldn't wake you."
Jiang Qianhai could only give an awkward smile at that. He did not answer the question, instead asking Xue Qinghe curiously.
"Brother Qinghe, you woke up so early. Are you used to waking at this hour?"
Gurgle~
Before Xue Qinghe could speak, his stomach suddenly growled.
Xue Qinghe instantly grew awkward as well.
Now Jiang Qianhai understood everything. He immediately laughed and said, "Looks like it's time for breakfast."
After Xue Qinghe walked out, Jiang Qianhai finally checked the panel after devouring the strange fire.
Let's see my information.
