A God Position Falls from the Sky While You Sit at Home

What? I'm going to be the God of Phoenix?

Ma Xiaotao's expression was clearly blank.

Not only Ma Xiaotao, but also Xiao Xiao and Wen Xiaoshuai were speechless, their mouths agape. They thought to themselves, "Is this what life is like having Deity backing? Sitting at home, God Position falls from the sky."

Xiao Xiao and Wen Xiaoshuai exchanged a glance, instantly understanding each other's meaning. "Whether they're Godly Second Generation or even third-generation gods, having a powerful backer is always a good thing. Luckily, they also have Zhou Huan."

Immediately, the two of them looked at Master Zhou stood to the side with an extremely calm expression.

Zhou Huan glanced at the little girl and Old Wen speechlessly, her tone perfectly calm. "I don't have God Position."

In reality, Zhou Huan's inner self was not as calm as it appeared.

He hadn't expected that Ma Hongjun's first words would be to offer Ma Xiaotao God Position.

Originally, Zhou Huan only intended to use Ma Xiaotao's connections to keep Ma Hongjun at Shrek, and incidentally win over the God of Phoenix, and perhaps even get some information about the Divine Realm. The key was to create a rift between the other First Generation Seven Monsters and Tang San.

Unexpectedly, Ma Hongjun wanted to quit and pass the Phoenix God Position to Ma Xiaotao.

It's not that Ma Xiaotao becoming the new God of Phoenix wouldn't benefit Zhou Huan; on the contrary, Ma Xiaotao would definitely stand on Zhou Huan's side. But Ma Xiaotao can't influence Dai Mubai and Oscar.

Most importantly, according to the timeline of the Divine Realm, Ma Hongjun has only been a god for a little over twenty years. If he were to pass on his God Position Inheritance now, who knows how much his cultivation level would drop? What if he were to fall below the god level? Wouldn't he die?

This is what Zhou Huan is most worried about.

Imagine if Ma Hongjun came to the Douluo Continent, entered Shrek Academy, and then relinquished his God Position, even risking his Life —what would the other Deity think?

However, the next second, Ma Xiaotao, having regained her senses, immediately raised Zhou Huan's question, "No, Ancestor, what will you do if I inherit the Phoenix God Position?"

Ma Xiaotao's thoughts weren't as complicated as Zhou Huan's. Her main concern was that there was only one God Position; if she took it, wouldn't the Ancestor be lost?

Even if she didn't understand the relationship between God Position and Deity, Ma Xiaotao wasn't stupid; this thing must be very important.

Unexpectedly, Ma Hongjun smiled and shook his head, saying, "It's alright. Actually, you don't understand the function of God Position, which is why you feel that losing the Phoenix God Position will affect me."

Ma Xiaotao asked, puzzled, "What do you mean?"

Upon hearing this, Ma Hongjun slowly explained, "God Position is the main means for Soul Master to become gods, and it can even be said to be a shortcut. Once you obtain God Position, you can directly become a god, and you can even skip several major realms from Limit Douluo to become God King."

"However, Deity who becomes a god through God Position is almost bound to that God Position. Only when Deity has mastered the God Position power that comes with that position can they be said to have truly reached the Deity realm they should have reached."

"However, that's all. Because whatever God Position you possess, your cultivation level can only reach the realm corresponding to that God Position. For example, the Phoenix God Position is Second-level Deity, so I can only cultivate to level 129, which is the Twelfth Order, and I cannot advance to the next level."

"Therefore, the God Position is currently just a stumbling block for me. Passing it on to you would actually relieve me of my Deity responsibilities."

Ma Xiaotao was stunned by Ma Hongjun's words, but she eventually understood that there was such a problem with the God Position.

At the same time, Zhou Huan was also deeply disturbed by what he heard.

He truly hadn't expected that Ma Hongjun would have completely mastered the divine power brought by the Phoenix God Position in just over twenty years in the Divine Realm.

Although Zhou Huan had never attained God Position, he knew how difficult it was to cultivate beyond the god level, and that divine power was not so easy to absorb and refine. If it weren't for the Floating Pagoda giving him a cheat code, Shrek might have become dust of history by the time he returned, if he had wanted to cultivate to the God King level.

Zhou Huan has gained a deeper understanding of this, especially during this period.

Because after he returned from the Abyss, his cultivation level of 150 was essentially unchanged; it wasn't exactly the same, but rather showed no progress whatsoever.

Zhou Huan believed that Deity who relied on their God Position to cultivate would not have the same effects as the Floating Pagoda. Even if they cultivated faster than god-level Soul Master without God Position, their speed would not be outrageously fast.

However, Ma Hongjun had already completely mastered the divine power brought by the Phoenix God Position.

That speed is a bit scary.

If Ma Hongjun is already this fast, what's going on with Tang San?

Previously, Zhou Huan once thought that the First Generation Seven Monsters had only spent a little over twenty years in the Divine Realm to become gods. Even if they added the thirty-odd years in the Mortal Realm, it would be impossible for them to fully refine the divine power brought by their God Position. In battle, they would still have to rely on the power of their God Position.

Looking back now, I realize I was being a bit presumptuous.

Even so, Zhou Huan had nothing to fear; he simply needed to raise his awareness of Tang San's strength.

Ma Hongjun was unaware that his explanation of the God Position to Ma Xiaotao had led Zhou Huan to these thoughts.

If he knew what Zhou Huan was thinking at that moment, he would definitely tell him, "You're overthinking it. Do you think everyone is like me, spending over twenty years in their own Deity territory, cultivating day and night?"

Besides, he was only Second-level Deity.

Tang San possesses the divine God Position of God King Position and a First-level Deity. Could the divine power derived from these Dual Godhood be so easily mastered?

Moreover, Tang San had to focus on the struggle against the God of Destruction, so where would he find the time to cultivate? After all, as long as he didn't give up his God Position, he would always possess the power of God King, and he could gradually make up for it through cultivation; there was no rush.

Let alone Tang San, even Dai Mubai and Oscar have rarely cultivated since entering the Divine Realm. They have plenty of time anyway, and they don't think about passing on their God Position immediately. They've only been gods for a few years.

In other words, Ma Hongjun simply transformed his longing into cultivation.

Therefore, he was able to complete the refinement of the divine power of the Phoenix God Position in such a short period of time.

Furthermore, Ma Hongjun now truly loathes the Divine Realm —no, it should be said that he loathes certain people within the Divine Realm —and has no desire to return. Therefore, he might as well pass on his God Position to his descendants.

However, before that, Ma Hongjun wanted to confirm Ma Xiaotao's thoughts. "Xiaotao, there's one more thing you need to know. As Douluo Deity, you must accept the management of the Douluo God Realm and abide by its laws. The key point is that if you're alone, the Divine Realm might not be as wonderful as you imagine, but it is ultimately a path to immortality, and I want to give you this choice."

Now, Ma Xiaotao was even more hesitant.

Shrek and her teachers raised and nurtured her to this age; weren't they just expecting her to become a god and leave?

Regardless of what the teachers thought, that's what Ma Xiaotao believed.

After much deliberation, Ma Xiaotao finally said, "Ancestor, can I receive the Deity Inheritance in a few years? I don't want to leave Shrek now."

Hearing this, Ma Hongjun smiled with relief, "It's alright, I'm right here, you can receive the inheritance at any time. Besides, as long as you haven't completed the final step of the God Position Inheritance, you can stay at Shrek indefinitely. I decide the timing. For now, receiving the inheritance only requires you to improve your cultivation level."

Unlike when Ma Hongjun received the Phoenix God Position, where the God Position was sealed in the Douluo God Realm and could only leave the Douluo Continent, the Phoenix God Position is now in Ma Hongjun's hands.

This gives us more room to maneuver.

Upon hearing this, Ma Xiaotao immediately agreed, saying, "Alright, I accept the God Position Inheritance. Thank you, Ancestor."

Xiao Xiao and Wen Xiaoshuai, who had been watching the drama unfold, were speechless. "..." Is this even possible? Is this the wonderful life with Deity Ancestor?

I have to say, I'm envious.

What? You're saying they also have Zhou Huan, and a friend named Wang Qingya who's Godly Second Generation. They can also cultivate to the level of Godhead with their divine sparks, without having to go to the Douluo God Realm or be restricted in their actions.

Oh, that's alright then.

But the envy is genuine; after all, who wouldn't want a Deity Ancestor to generously bestow opportunities upon them?
