For the Greatest Good! The Real Solution
"Don't ask me, I don't know either. Anyway, by the time I found out, the Plane Consciousness had already awakened."
Han Li anticipated Di Tian's intention to ask a question and interrupted his spellcasting.
"In the process of communicating with the Plane Consciousness, I became certain of one thing: I share its glory and its loss."
"Simply put, if I become a god, the Douluo Plane will upgrade and evolve into another Divine Realm; if I perish, the Douluo Plane will be destroyed, with no possibility of revival, and its energy will gradually dissipate, completely becoming a plane without energy."
Han Li said Youyou.
"Ha, that's impossible. Don't try to fool me. Even if you are the Plane Master, if you die, the plane will at most be silent for a while."
Di Tian sneered, not believing what he said. He wasn't some ignorant dragon; Plane Master. If he hadn't seen it, he had at least heard of it.
"Really? If you're so sure, why don't you even know about the awakening of Plane Consciousness? Or do you think it's normal for Plane Consciousness to be born and choose a master when the rules of the Divine Realm have been adjusted?"
Di Tian was caught off guard by Han Li's question and didn't know how to answer.
This should never have happened, especially after that incident.
Di Tian fell silent. After a long while, he looked at Han Li.
"So what are you trying to say? You risked coming to see me, even mentioning the Lord's existence. I don't believe you're just here to say hello."
"I did come to see you with a purpose."
Seeing that they had finally gotten to the point, Han Li stopped beating around the bush.
"How about we make a win-win agreement?"
How to achieve a win-win situation?
Di Tian frowned, sensing something amiss. He had traveled the continent and encountered all sorts of people, and those who made such promises were generally not good people.
"It's very simple. You don't even need to do anything. I will help the Silver Dragon King recover faster. But when I confront the Divine Realm, I need you to stand up and fight alongside me."
Han Li delivered his prepared speech with great sincerity.
"That's impossible. You have no chance of winning."
Without even thinking, Di Tian blurted out and decisively refused.
What a joke! Even the Lord is forced to hide, yet some greenhorn who hasn't even become a god yet dares to tell him that he wants to fight against the Divine Realm and wants them to take sides. What kind of Douluo joke is this? It's even more ridiculous than that Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.
Why is it impossible?
The aura of the broken Godhood Shard core of the Icefire Dragon King, which had been baptized and refined, flashed by Han Li's body, but it could not be hidden from Di Tian.
"This is?"
Di Tian's eyes widened. He had been held by the two princes when he was a child.
"Yes, that's exactly what you think. With this, plus ample Faith Power, and if we add that guy in the ocean as a supplement, plus the help of the Plane Consciousness, why do you think it's impossible?"
"To put it bluntly, when will you ever become God King?"
Finally, Han Li added a rather hurtful remark, causing Di Tian's face to flush red.
"Follow me, and you'll get priority in energy supply. The Faith Power can also alleviate the Silver Dragon King's soul injuries and even help her recover quickly. At the very least, several more gods will be born on my side, with no fewer than five First Level God."
"And you lot can also successfully overcome your tribulations under my protection after my advancement, further enhancing your strength. Is there a better choice than this?"
Han Li spoke with extreme arrogance, yet it stirred Di Tian's heart.
"So, what is the price?"
Although Di Tian desperately wanted to enter the space where his master was recuperating to wake her up and share the news with her, he forcibly held back.
He was well aware that these seemingly sweet conditions were not so easy to bear, so he was in no hurry.
Moreover, he did not want to expose the space hidden by the master in front of this human. Even though he was the Plane Master, with his current abilities, he still could not directly locate the space created by the master.
"The price, huh?"
Han Li smiled and then said, "The price is that before I become a god, the Soul Beast Race needs to believe in me. I don't care what method you use, I believe you can do it."
Di Tian's expression changed; this was not something he could decide.
They don't get a single penny of the Faith Power the Soul Beast have in the Dragon God. Even if they do, it's only a very small portion, not even a scrap.
The Silver Dragon King is not a true Dragon God after all, and they don't even dare to publicize it. Otherwise, the Silver Dragon King's injuries wouldn't have taken so long to heal. The Faith Power is omnipotent.
"Can't make a decision? That's alright, you can think it over carefully. You can ask that person after I leave."
Han Li gestured with his chin toward the direction of the Lake of Life, his smile remaining unchanged.
Di Tian looked at him and felt as if he had no secrets at all in front of him.
"Actually, you didn't have a choice at all, did you?"
Han Li's voice rang out again.
"Your exposure was inevitable when you allowed the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm to escape."
As he spoke, Han Li pointed to the Seventh Soul Ring above his head.
He already knew that Tian Meng must have said something to the Blue Silver Emperor back at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, so he figured it wouldn't be a problem for him to take the blame now, as he never held grudges.
After all, we need to give them a suitable reason to fill in the blanks.
As for that useless Ice Silkworm, Di Tian clenched his fist and silently made a mental note of it. He hadn't expected that they would be exposed in this way, and even more coincidentally, they had run into Han Li.
Now he understood why the eyes of the Divine Realm had been cast upon Tian Meng when she escaped.
The Evil God Hook behind Han Li came from the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, and it all matched up.
"It is precisely because of its existence that I noticed you, which led to today's conversation."
"You choose the path of faith to godhood. Given your circumstances, the Divine Realm would surely have a lineage to descend upon you. Furthermore, why are you opposing the Divine Realm?"
Di Tian finally found an opportunity to ask the question he most wanted to know, which was also the reason why he hadn't answered it before. Han Li had made extremely generous promises, but this shouldn't be his choice.
If he wanted to become a god, it would be very easy for him. Di Tian tightened his fist even more; this was something they could hardly achieve.
"Oh, didn't I say that? Actually, I did say it from the beginning."
Han Li sighed, looking at Di Tian with a strange expression. "You just can't seem to grasp the point."
"I have already said that after I become a god, the Douluo Plane will evolve into another Divine Realm, a plane different from the existing Divine Realm, and the rules will be controlled by me."
"I don't need to elaborate on the matters of the Divine Realm, do I? You are well aware of the situation. What do you think the Divine Realm will choose when such a situation arises?"
Han Li then passed the question to Di Tian.
"Give up your privileges to join them, or Destruction."
Di Tian gave his answer after only a moment's thought. With the precedent of the Soul Beast as a cautionary tale, this question was not difficult to answer, especially given his hatred for the Divine Realm.
Actually, that's not necessarily true. But if you think this way, there's absolutely no problem with it, Han Li muttered to himself, looking at Di Tian.
"That's right, that's exactly it."
"So, I'm not reconciled. I am the Plane Master. Why should I leave such a promising plane to be under someone else's roof? And who knows what will happen to me after I hand over my authority? After all, I'm just a new god."
Han Li guided him to think in the most extreme direction, which wasn't exactly nonsense, was it?
Di Tian pondered for a moment, then nodded. His gaze towards Han Li even held a hint of mutual sympathy; they were both forced into this situation by the Divine Realm.
Han Li found his gaze somewhat incomprehensible, but he didn't care. As long as the goal was achieved, that was enough. This had established a basic level of trust.
"So we are on the same side, and I am also taking precautions."
Han Li said to Di Tian, having unconsciously replaced "you" with "we".
"I don't know why the Divine Realm targets Soul Beast, nor do I want to know; it's none of my business. But as the Plane Master, I must bear this responsibility. Whether human or Soul Beast, they are all my subjects."
Han Li didn't mention anything more, but instead focused on his own perspective.
Although Di Tian felt a little uncomfortable, as if he had become the other party's son, he did not deny it. Strictly speaking, Han Li's words were not wrong.
"The identity of the Plane Master is my foundation. I became a god only to better develop the plane. I don't know about the other Plane Master, but I know that if I abandon the plane, I will die."
Han Li wasn't actually sure, but at this moment, he was definitely certain.
"Therefore, I launched the Mysterious Heaven Skill. What I want is the development of the entire plane."
Seeing that Di Tian's face had darkened, Han Li added:
"Of course, this is to collect the Faith Power and to deceive the Divine Realm. Only after becoming a god can I completely change the rules. But even without becoming a god, I am already changing some things. It's just that I can only do it slowly."
A book appeared in his hand, which he carried with his Soul Power and delivered to Di Tian.
"On the eve of becoming a god, this cultivation technique will be promoted by the Spirit Hall to the entire continent. It does not need to absorb Soul Ring, or rather, it can bypass the step of hunting Soul Beast, condense Ten-Year Soul Ring on its own, and then slowly improve."
"In this way, the most fundamental conflict between human Soul Master and Soul Beast can be easily resolved."
Di Tian felt the booklet in his hands was a bit heavy, and unconsciously licked his lips as he began to look through its contents.
"I've already had someone try it, and he successfully condensed Soul Ring. Of course, it's not perfect yet, but all that's left is time to refine it, isn't it?"
Han Li did not disturb him. He had indeed tried it; otherwise, how would he have obtained his God-Given Soul Ring?
Moreover, after switching to this cultivation method, it's not just about cultivating Soul Power; the process of upgrading Soul Ring also involves perfecting the rules. It can be said that the Douluo Continent after the transformation will definitely be stronger than it is now.
The most crucial point is that this cultivation method is not limited to human practitioners!
