Douluo: One Thought of God and Demon, Inheriting the Dual God Positions of Good and Evil

Seeing this, Bibi Dong's suspicions were confirmed. She exhaled softly and said,

"It seems you've absorbed too much Aura of Evil recently, causing the powers of goodness and evil within you to fall out of balance. This greatsword is warning you."

"You can't keep accelerating your cultivation of evil power, or it may lead to irreversible consequences!"

Qian Renxin glanced at the greatsword and nodded in agreement with Bibi Dong's guess.

He also opened his Deity Assessment.

Evil Affinity: 19

Good Affinity: 11

"As expected, there's quite a gap, but it's still within a reasonable range."

Qian Renxin was relieved.

He had already chosen a place to cultivate the Power of Goodness.

It was the Angel Sanctuary, the inheritance ground of the Angel God, who stood directly opposed to the Rakshasa God.

It contained the most powerful and purest Light Power on the entire continent, and it could likewise help Qian Renxin cultivate the Power of Goodness.

As long as he could cultivate in the inheritance grounds of two gods at the same time,

his progress in comprehending the Power of Good Origin and the Power of Evil Origin would advance by leaps and bounds.

He told Bibi Dong about his idea.

Naturally, Bibi Dong agreed. From the standpoint of cultivation logic, there was nothing wrong with it.

However, this plan had one major obstacle.

"I don't know whether your grandfather will agree..." Bibi Dong pointed out the key issue.

As the Rakshasa God's inheritor,

she was willing to let Qian Renxin enter the Rakshasa Secret Realm with her and cultivate the power of evil.

But as the High Priest of the Angel God, Qian Daoliu might not allow Qian Renxin to borrow the Angel Sanctuary's power to cultivate the Power of Goodness,

even if Qian Renxin was his own grandson.

After leaving the Rakshasa Secret Realm,

Qian Renxin and Bibi Dong went together to the Worship Hall and explained that they wished to borrow the Angel Sanctuary.

After hearing their request,

Qian Daoliu looked deeply puzzled and asked, "Xin'er, don't you already possess the inheritances of two gods?"

Qian Renxin felt somewhat embarrassed. It was not easy to openly admit that he wanted to freeload.

"Xin'er must cultivate both the powers of goodness and evil in order to inherit the gods' powers."

Bibi Dong explained coldly, "I have already helped Xin'er find a method to cultivate the power of evil. But to cultivate the Power of Goodness, he must enter the Angel Sanctuary."

Qian Daoliu's expression turned troubled.

As the High Priest, he had always strictly fulfilled his duties.

Since entering the God Realm, the Angel God had continuously bestowed blessings upon the Qian Clan for ten thousand years.

Because of this, the Angel God's energy had been greatly depleted.

As High Priest, he could clearly sense that the Angel God's Divine Soul was steadily weakening.

Once the Angel God dissipated, the Qian Clan and Spirit Hall would rapidly decline as well.

That was why he had been so eager for someone to inherit the Angel God Position as soon as possible, condense the divine spark once more, and nourish the Angel God in return.

If Qian Renxin entered the Angel Sanctuary, it would be no different from placing an additional burden upon the already weakened Angel God.

He crouched down and stroked Qian Renxin's cheek.

"Xin'er, I'll find another cultivation method for you. As for the Angel Sanctuary... let's forget about it."

Bibi Dong curled her lips.

She had known all along that this old man would never let Xin'er enter.

Qian Renxin was not surprised either.

As a qualified High Priest, Qian Daoliu naturally would not agree to let another god's inheritor consume the Angel God's power.

But he was still unwilling to give up.

After all, the Angel Sanctuary was a Divine Inheritance site. The light power within it was undoubtedly among the finest.

"Grandfather, how about letting me communicate with the Angel God?"

Qian Daoliu hesitated once more.

If it was only to communicate with the Angel God's Divine Soul, there should not be a problem, right?

Ordinarily, outsiders were not permitted to enter the inner hall.

Only the Grand Venerable and the Angel God's inheritor were qualified to do so.

But he truly could not bear to reject Qian Renxin's request again, so he decided to make an exception.

He brought Qian Renxin into the Angel inner hall.

The moment the doors opened, sacred Light Power surged out and gathered all around them.

Qian Renxin inwardly sighed that he had indeed come to the right place. If he could cultivate the Power of Goodness in a place like this, he would probably get started very quickly.

At the center of the inner hall stood a massive angel statue. Six wings shielded the sanctuary behind it, faintly glimmering with golden light.

Qian Daoliu walked to the center of the inner hall, dropped to one knee, and reported,

"Lord Angel God, this is my grandson. He also carries Angel bloodline."

White light bloomed from the Angel God statue's eyes, as if it had opened them.

Having received the High Priest's summons,

the Angel God in the God Realm slowly opened her eyes as well.

She was among the most unusual gods in the God Realm. She had nurtured her own bloodline in the lower realm to cultivate Angel God inheritors.

It was indeed highly effective, far better than those gods searching blindly for candidates.

But her long-term blessings upon the lower realm had gradually weakened her power. She could only place her Divine Soul within the Angel God statue, while her true body in the God Realm remained unconscious.

The statue would automatically bestow angelic blessings in her place, helping later descendants break through their Innate Soul Power.

"This child... is strange..."

As the Angel God opened her eyes, she too sensed that this inheritor of hers seemed extraordinary.

Then,

a halo emerged from the Angel God statue in the Angel Sanctuary and entered Qian Renxin's forehead.

When Qian Renxin regained consciousness,

a tall, golden-haired mature woman stood before him. Her pale golden dress outlined her graceful curves, while her clear, placid eyes seemed indifferent to all things in the world.

So this is the Angel God...

Qian Renxin thought to himself.

The instant she saw Qian Renxin, surprise flickered in Qian Yuhan's placid eyes.

From Qian Renxin, she actually sensed the auras of two God Kings!

A human possessed the inheritances of two God Kings.

Even in the dazzling era in which she had lived, she had never seen anyone with such talent.

"You... why have you come to find me?"

Angel God Qian Yuhan spoke calmly, though the surprise in her eyes vanished in an instant.

"This junior wishes to borrow the Angel Sanctuary to cultivate the Power of Good Origin."

Qian Renxin did not make excuses and instead told her everything.

There was nothing wrong with calling himself a junior. After all, Qian Yuhan was not only the Angel God, but also his ancestor.

"You truly are the inheritor of those two lords."

Qian Yuhan did not answer immediately. Instead, she shifted the topic. "It is truly rare for good and evil to be gathered within one body."

"It isn't rare at all."

Qian Renxin slowly explained his own understanding. "You can see it from the first gods born into this world. Goodness and evil were originally one."

At his words,

Qian Yuhan faintly furrowed her brow.

In her view,

evil should be eradicated from the mortal world.

That was why she had chosen to draw the Angel Sacred Sword and vowed to eliminate all evil in the world, protecting its people.

(Because the Angel God was not described much in the original work, the anime setting was used directly.)

Angel God's Approval, Angel Sanctuary Opens

"That is merely your personal view."

Qian Yuhan said blandly, "If you cultivated only the Power of Goodness, then as my descendant, I would not be stingy. I would open the Angel Sanctuary for your cultivation."

Qian Renxin was somewhat disappointed.

Her words were a tactful rejection.

He steadied himself and said in an equal tone, "You drew the sacred sword and vowed to eliminate all evil. Yet since becoming a god, the people of this world still suffer, and evil has not been eradicated. You should understand that your thinking was wrong."

Qian Yuhan's beautiful brows knitted tightly.

Before becoming a god, she had already been a top expert. She rarely heard such blunt criticism.

But Qian Renxin's words were not alarmist; they were indeed facts. So she calmly asked,

"Then in your view, must the people of this world inevitably suffer?"

"Suffering is not inevitable. Some people can change it."

Qian Renxin continued, "However, evil can never be eradicated. That is a natural law of this world, unless humanity eliminates its own consciousness and becomes numb machines."

Even when facing a god,

he showed not the slightest hint of timidity.

His ideas came from the modern age.

In terms of perspective, they surpassed the feudal Douluo Continent by far.

Qian Yuhan relaxed her brows, and a thoughtful expression appeared on her face.

Then, with a trace of curiosity, she asked,

"Then in your view, how can the common people be kept from suffering?"

"As I said just now, suffering can be reduced by people. Once Spirit Hall unifies the continent, wars between empires will decrease, and suffering will naturally decrease as well."

Qian Renxin spoke righteously, his gaze so resolute that not a trace of selfish desire could be seen within it.

"Long division leads to unity, and long unity leads to division. Would that not still bring casualties?"

Qian Yuhan was unmoved. Instead, she said with some disappointment, "And how many deaths and injuries would the process of unifying the continent cause? How could that be a solution?"

Qian Renxin said, "No. You have slept for so long that this continent has not seen a single Deity Inheritor in ten thousand years. As long as I become a god, I can make the two great empires submit without deploying a single soldier."

"Therefore, you need to help me become a god. I will unify the continent and reduce the suffering caused by war."

"As long as I live, this continent will not have to suffer the ravages of war. Because I am strong enough to suppress any petty threat!"

Qian Yuhan looked slightly surprised.

She felt that Qian Renxin's words made a great deal of sense, yet it seemed as though her thoughts had been led along by him all this time...
