Zhou Huan's Initial Thoughts on Becoming a God
The next morning, as the first rays of sunlight shone on Peach Spring Village, Zhou Huan and Zhang Lexuan had already arrived at the Back Mountain of Peach Spring Village with offerings such as fruit and pork.
Weeding, cleaning tombstones, placing offerings...
After a series of actions, the two sat down in front of their parents' gravestones and talked about what had happened over the past year.
Zhou Huan did not go to disturb Zhang Lexuan and her parents as they confided in each other.
After the memorial service, Zhou Huan simply told her parents that she was doing well, then sat down under a large tree on the other side and quietly waited for Zhang Lexuan.
He is, after all, a grown man; psychologically speaking, Zhou Huan is already in his forties.
Although I have been reborn and am still a teenager with a youthful mindset, I am still different from ordinary people.
Therefore, there aren't many rambling things to say to one's parents in this life.
Zhou Huan didn't know if reincarnation truly existed in the Douluo World, or if the souls of the dead would slowly dissipate if no one guided them.
Perhaps he will only know the true answer when he becomes a god one day.
If he could, he would definitely resurrect his parents in this life; as for his original home on Blue Star, he didn't know what the situation was now, whether it was separated by time, distance, or even the spacetime and dimension.
There are too many unknowns, and ultimately, they are beyond the comprehension of a mere mortal like him.
Now we can only take it one step at a time, doing what we can within our capabilities. The only thing that remains unchanged is our desire to become stronger and to become a god.
"What's wrong? You look so troubled." At this moment, Zhang Lexuan walked over and sat down next to Zhou Huan.
Zhou Huan smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just feel that if I can become a god in the future, it should make up for some of my regrets."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Lexuan was stunned for a moment. Even with her exceptional talent, she only occasionally daydreamed about becoming a god, and never truly believed that she could become a god, because for ten thousand years, no one on the Douluo Continent had become a god.
Even the War of the Three Gods ten thousand years ago, and the Shrek Seven Monsters becoming gods, are just records in books.
Becoming a god is too ethereal and unrealistic.
In these ten thousand years, countless incredibly talented Soul Master have emerged, yet not a single one has achieved godhood.
So many years have passed, and even the Shrek Sea God Pavilion no longer aims to become a god. Becoming Limit Douluo and guarding Shrek is already the highest achievement.
However, upon hearing Zhou Huan's wish to become a god, Zhang Lexuan did not say anything discouraging. Instead, she nodded slightly and said, "If you can become a god, perhaps you really can do what you want to do."
As she spoke, Zhang Lexuan glanced at the tombstone not far away; she longed to see her parents one last time.
Then Zhang Lexuan added, "Then you'll have to work even harder. According to the limited records the Sea God Pavilion has, without Deity Inheritance, it's impossible to become a god. But where is Deity Inheritance, how is it obtained, and how can one obtain Deity Inheritance? We know nothing about these things."
"However, I still believe you have a chance to create a miracle. After all, there wasn't Soul Sage who was sixteen years old even ten thousand years ago."
"Perhaps one day, you will truly receive the Deity Inheritance."
Hearing Zhang Lexuan's encouragement, Zhou Huan and replied, "Then let's work hard together."
However, Zhou Huan was thinking to himself, "The Deity Inheritance?"
That depends on whose Deity Inheritance it is.
If it were the God King Inheritance as powerful as the God of Destruction or the Goddess of Life, Zhou Huan would have agreed without hesitation.
However, neither the God of Destruction nor the Goddess of Life can bestow their inheritance at present. The God of Destruction is still thinking about how to strengthen the Divine Realm and is currently engaged in a battle of wits and courage with the God King Tang!
As the wife of the God of Destruction, the Goddess of Life cannot relinquish her Deity Position.
As for the other two God Kings, Ji Dong and Lie Yan, needless to say, those two have only been gods for a few years.
Furthermore, based on Zhou Huan's understanding of the Douluo God Realm, apart from Rong Nianbing, who wants to shirk responsibility and run away, there really won't be any other powerful Deity descending their inheritances on the Douluo Continent.
However, God King Tang coveted Rong Nianbing's God Position and made it part of his plan.
So, one was plotting to seize your God Position, while the other was thinking of going with the flow, becoming a hands-off manager, quickly passing on the Deity Position, and then living a carefree life with his teacher and wives.
Huo Gua clearly became the best piece in the game.
Will Zhou Huan take Huo Gua's place and become the sucker?
That's definitely not the case.
Putting aside the fact that Zhou Huan's cooking skills are extremely mediocre, and that he himself has absolutely no compatibility with the God Position of the God of Emotion, Rong Nianbing most likely wouldn't even notice him, let alone pass on the God Position the God of Survival to him.
Even if, by the very odds, Rong Nianbing notices him and, in a moment of madness, decides to pass on her God Position to him...
Zhou Huan also needs to carefully consider whether or not to accept it.
This is tantamount to stealing the God Position that God King Tang was preparing to give to Huo Gua, which is indirectly equivalent to stealing God King Tang's God Position, and even more indirectly equivalent to Path to Death.
The God of Emotion, First-level Deity, is no match for the combined forces of the Asura God and the Deity of the Sea God.
Or could one join the God of Destruction's side and participate in the God Realm War?
But that's definitely not a good choice, because in terms of old silver coins, the God of Destruction is no match for the God King Tang.
It's better to just stay quietly in Shrek!
Being able to live freely in the mortal realm for two or three hundred years is better than fighting to the death in the Divine Realm, and you'd probably lose anyway.
Thinking about this, Zhou Huan felt that he only had one choice on his path to godhood: to Self-Created Godhood!
They could Self-Created Godhood, but they had no clue where to even begin, let alone a trace of them.
The road ahead is long and arduous!
Moreover, Zhou Huan couldn't possibly explain all of this to Zhang Lexuan right now, because it involved too many things, was too complicated, and was too dangerous.
Therefore, Zhou Huan continued, "Sister Lexuan, becoming a god is still a long way off. I'm just a weak Soul Sage."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Lexuan immediately rolled her eyes at Zhou Huan: "Yeah, a very 'weak' sixteen-year-old Soul Sage, and a Soul Sage with the First Soul Core?"
That's right, Zhang Lexuan knew that Zhou Huan had condensed his First Soul Core. She discovered this when the two of them used their Martial Soul Fusion Skill in the Flame Palace. Although Zhou Huan's Soul Power was not as strong as hers in terms of quantity, it was in no way inferior to her, a level 92 Titled Douluo!
This is why their Martial Soul Fusion Skill was so powerful, even reaching the level of Super Douluo, which enabled them to kill the Ice Fire Spirit Beast.
Hearing Zhang Lexuan's teasing, Zhou Huan wasn't embarrassed at all. Instead, she shamelessly replied, "Yeah, I'll still need Sister Lexuan to protect me more in the future."
Zhang Lexuan: "... Sometimes I really want to know just how thick-skinned you are."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Huan immediately leaned forward slightly and said with a grin, "Sister Lexuan can take a closer look."
However, the next second, Zhou Huan's face was pinched hard by Zhang Lexuan!
Without a doubt, Zhou Huan's face immediately became burning hot; even Soul Sage couldn't stand being pinched on the face by Titled Douluo!
"Sister Lexuan, you went too far," Zhou Huan said, touching her reddened face.
Zhang Lexuan, however, didn't care at all. "Who told you to be so cocky?"
However, Zhang Lexuan quickly changed the subject. "You've already condensed your First Soul Core, so what will you do when you reach the Titled Douluo? What about the Limit Douluo? You've done so much theoretical research, you must have a plan, right?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Huan nodded. "Yes, most Limit Douluo actually use the Isotopic Resonance Method to construct their Second Soul Core; however, based on a lot of information and my personal deduction, there is another way to construct a Soul Core, called the Yin-Yang Complementary Method. This method can not only construct Three Soul Cores, but even Limit Douluo with Dual Soul Cores Limit Douluo stronger than those using the Isotopic Resonance Method."
The Yin-Yang Complementary Method was not something Zhou Huan came up with out of thin air, because he already knew that Huo Gua would construct Yin-Yang Complementary Three Soul Cores in the future.
However, figuring out exactly how to construct it requires Zhou Huan to deduce and experiment step by step.
However, to Zhang Lexuan, these were already unbelievable things.
Despite being Titled Douluo, she clearly didn't know as much about the Second Soul Core as Zhou Huan.
Therefore, Zhang Lexuan asked, "Then will I be able to use the Yin-Yang Complementary Method to construct Second Soul Core and Third Soul Core in the future?"
Who wouldn't want to be stronger?
Moreover, she wouldn't doubt Zhou Huan's theory.
However, Zhou Huan shook his head and said, "Sister Lexuan, you'll have no problem building Yin-Yang Complementary Dual Soul Cores in the future, but I don't know if Three Soul Cores is possible. I need to research that first, after all, you're already Titled Douluo."
Zhang Lexuan: "Okay, then you study it carefully. I'll wait for your success."
Zhou Huan: "..." Suddenly, he felt like a researcher working for his boss.
"Let's go back, it's getting late."
Zhang Lexuan looked ahead and saw that the sun was already high in the sky.
Afterward, the two packed their things and left the Back Mountain.
