Good News and Bad News: Without Immediate Worries, There Will Be Distant Concerns
Han Li casually squeezed the ball of light in his hand; it felt quite nice.
"So, I will become the Plane Master? But if that happens, will my strength be limited by you, or rather, by the Douluo Continent?"
Han Li thoughtfully stroked the ball of light in his hand.
"No, Father, your existence and mine are special. Because of your influence, the future evolution of Douluo Star will take a special path, instead of being upgraded to a pure energy plane without a physical form. It will not need to rely on subordinate planes for positioning like the Divine Realm does now."
"Douluo Star is your God Kingdom, a God Kingdom with a physical form. Although the cause and effect are reversed, with Douluo Star appearing first and you appearing later, your existence affected my birth. Once I fully control the plane, you essentially created the world directly."
"In terms of status, you are at the level of God of Creation. Your strength will not be affected until you reach the level of God of Creation that the universe can withstand. On the contrary, the improvement of the plane depends on you."
"Even in the worst-case scenario, you can steadily reach the pinnacle of the God King level."
The Little Light Orb became more and more excited as it spoke, because as long as its father continued to improve, its authority would be equivalent to the combined power of the Five Great God Kings of the Divine Realm.
"What about the Divine Realm? Will they just watch the Douluo Plane slip out of their control?"
Han Li suddenly realized a very serious problem: his path to advancement seemed to be digging into the roots of the Divine Realm.
"You don't need to worry about this for now. The subordinate planes that the Divine Realm relies on are not limited to the Douluo Plane. In fact, the Divine Realm itself will give back to its subordinate planes to a certain extent. Well, it's just that for some reason, they haven't taken any further action towards the Douluo Plane."
"However, one thing is clear: the Divine Realm is not lacking in energy. On the contrary, they need a powerful subordinate plane for positioning and connection. And since the evolution of the Douluo Plane does not conflict with that of the Divine Realm and has taken different evolutionary directions, they will do their best to help you become a god."
The Little Light Orb flickered and approached Han Li's shoulder.
"Yes, before I become a god, they will do everything they can to help me."
Han Li sighed meaningfully.
He sat down cross-legged, no longer asking questions, and let the Little Light Orb spin around him.
Before becoming a god, it's easy to talk about things, and even becoming a god isn't a problem. But what about after becoming a god? Although if the Douluo Plane can be upgraded, it would be a great thing for the Divine Realm.
But can the Douluo God Realm accept a subordinate plane that is much weaker than itself and be on equal footing with it? In fact, this plane may become completely self-sufficient in the future and will no longer send any talents to the Divine Realm. On the contrary, the Divine Realm will need to rely on its existence to maintain stability.
How long can the Divine Realm tolerate a situation where Destiny is in the hands of others? Inviting someone to a feast, beheading them, or taking them in as dogs—this is the only possible outcome Han Li can imagine.
Can he accept this? Before becoming a god, he had to be mindful of others' opinions; after becoming a god, he still has to be mindful of others' opinions. Wouldn't that be a waste of becoming a god? So, could his greatest ally before becoming a god, Destruction, become his greatest enemy after becoming a god? What about Asura? Or perhaps the Sea God, who is eager to escape? What will their attitudes be? It seems he needs to think carefully about how to deal with this.
Perhaps, should he accept the God Position there first? And then rebel when he has enough strength? Or perhaps, should he surround them? Han Li kept tapping his knees lightly, then grabbed the Little Light Orb and asked it some questions before letting it go again.
After thinking for a long time, Han Li finally stood up again.
"You should be able to block the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and briefly obscure the prying eyes of the Divine Realm, right?"
Han Li looked at the Little Light Orb in front of him and asked seriously.
"Yes, Father, do you need it now?"
The Little Light Orb floated quietly in mid-air, knowing it was time for it to shine.
"Then let's seal off the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well for now. As for blocking the gaze of the Divine Realm, well, we'll open it when I need it. You can continue to pretend to be asleep."
Han Li thought for a moment before slowly speaking.
"Okay, Father, no problem. You just need to call my name in your heart when the time comes."
"I will remain in a state of slumber for most of the time afterward, so that I can better integrate with my instincts and fight against the rules, but I will respond to your call immediately."
The Little Light Orb of light brightened considerably, seemingly to prove its credibility.
"Okay, I understand. You can go now. I'll call you again if I need anything."
Han Li had intended to let it leave directly, but halfway through his wave, he remembered something, stopped, and spoke again, "By the way, how much attention has the Divine Realm been paying to me lately?"
"It's much weaker, but you still get glances at you from time to time. However, most of the time, it's multiple divine thoughts; there are no instances of a single divine thought appearing."
"Okay, that's all for today."
Han Li, indicating that he could leave.
"Your will is my will. Goodbye, great father, I await your call at any time."
After flashing again, the Little Light Orb disappeared into Han Li's Spiritual Space.
Subsequently, Han Li's spiritual body also dissipated and returned to the real world.
"Call"
Opening his eyes, Han Li exhaled a deep breath.
The re-emergence of Plane Consciousness brought new changes to his peaceful life.
Good news, becoming a god should be as easy for him as eating and drinking.
The bad news is that after he becomes a god, the situation is likely to become unstable, and he may even face the most severe situation in history.
Fortunately, there is still time for development.
Well, the subsequent communication with my Good Son wasn't entirely fruitless; there were still solutions.
At worst, he has the worst option: to join them voluntarily.
Han Li smile. He was only Soul Elder, so why did he have to start thinking about these issues now?
Other transmigrators were all playing house with Tang San at this point, so why did things suddenly change when it came to him?
After a moment of silence, Han Li stood up.
Forget about that for now; that's the ultimate goal, and we already have a backup plan.
Now, the most important thing is for him to continue to improve his skills; he will not place his hopes on other people's uncertain ideas.
Building his own team is also on the agenda. Going it alone is not his style; he prefers teamwork. Even if they can't help him in the end, they can at least ensure that they won't become his weakness.
Even considering the worst-case scenario, if he chooses to join, he should bring a group of people with him so that he can have more say.
He took a few steps, opened the door, and looked up at the sky.
Has the attention waned recently? Are they discussing how to handle my issue?
One day in the Divine Realm is equivalent to one year on the mainland. I hope you can discuss this a little longer.
Asura, it's time for you to unleash your power. Don't let me down.
