The First Chapter: The Demon God's Descent, The Demon God's Return

Douluo Continent, Heaven Dou City.

Inside the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, built against the mountains, a sharp and clear sword intent suddenly erupted on the vast training grounds.

The source of this intertwining sword intent was a young man.

Sword intent radiated from his body, incomparably surging!

He was only eleven or twelve years old, yet his soul power had already reached level forty, and at this very moment, he had successfully broken through!

"Captain's talent... is simply terrifying."

Not far away, a group of young men and women sighed. Their expressions were complex, yet all were filled with the same shock.

"Lin Chen, he isn't even twelve yet, right?"

"He just broke through to become a Soul Ancestor!"

Yu Tianheng watched the young man surrounded by sword intent with a complex expression; he was several years older than him.

Yet his own soul power was only at level thirty-nine.

"He is indeed very strong." Dugu Yan nodded in agreement.

The young man being discussed was Lin Chen.

Six years ago, he transmigrated to the Douluo Continent, awakened the Sword Immortal Martial Soul, and possessed innate full soul power!

Since then—

He came to Heaven Dou City all by himself, and relying on his peerless talent, he broke the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's rule of only accepting noble students.

Because he met Qin Ming.

In the end, it was under Qin Ming's guidance that he joined the battle team, and now, he had become the captain of the team that included Dugu Yan and others.

Lin Chen's talent...

Even Yu Tianheng had to admit it.

And the martial soul he possessed was not that of the legends, but according to the academy's deduction—

It should be the one that contained the sword intent of the heavens!

But even so, that terrifying sword intent was enough to tear the void apart, worthy of being the strongest martial soul.

"Whew—!"

The sword intent retracted, and Lin Chen stood up and walked toward the crowd.

"Captain, you... have you broken through to level forty?"

In the crowd, Dugu Yan asked.

"Just barely succeeded, still a few soul rings short," Lin Chen said with a smile.

"It seems Teacher Qin will have to go out himself again, to take us to hunt for soul beasts."

Yu Tianheng's smile was filled with a bit of bitterness.

At first, he wasn't convinced by this guy Lin Chen, but as Lin Chen's strength surpassed his own, this...

It was truly impossible not to be convinced.

After Lin Chen chatted with the crowd for a while, he returned to his room alone, feeling the moonlight gently brushing against his face.

Lin Chen was a bit distracted.

"Now that I've broken through to Soul Ancestor, some plans can begin to be prepared."

Lin Chen muttered to himself.

What he was referring to was naturally the various plans including the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. His Sword Immortal Martial Soul was terrifyingly powerful.

"Perhaps, the King of the Underworld is also a good place to go."

Just as Lin Chen was lost in thought, a crisp sound suddenly rang out in his mind.

[Host binding successful!]

[The Douluo Diary has been bound to the host. You can become stronger just by writing in the diary.]

[This diary will gradually unlock female characters from the Douluo Continent. The host will receive completion rates, and completing a diary entry will grant rewards.]

[If the diary entry changes the original fate trajectory, you will receive even richer rewards.]

[The diary is not limited to factual descriptions of the original storyline; the host can appropriately embellish or beautify it.]

"A diary... can make me stronger?"

Lin Chen was stunned, and he sank his consciousness into his sea of spirit.

Sure enough, a diary with a unique design, glowing with divine light, appeared there!

"It actually is..."

Lin Chen exclaimed.

He used his consciousness to open it and saw four large words on it: The Douluo Diary. It was currently blank, with no content.

But the perception of the diary was something that truly existed.

It seemed that as long as he used his Divine Power to write, he could complete the diary.

[Current number of unlocked female characters: 5.]

[Once a female character's completion rate reaches 90%, the host will receive additional rewards, including soul ring age increases, special soul bones, talents, etc.]

Lin Chen: "..."

"System, you really know how to keep a guy in suspense."

However, regarding these five female characters, Lin Chen did not know their identities, but fortunately, the same was true for them.

The other party also did not know Lin Chen's identity!

"Since writing a diary can make me stronger, who would still cultivate?"

"I'm giving up on cultivation from now on!"

"System, output the diary, I'm starting to update."

The next moment, the system's electronic notification sound rang out.

[The Fighting Diary has been released! The host can start creating entries, and those who possess the Fighting Diary can read them immediately.]

"..."

Lin Chen came back to his senses. If it weren't for the fact that a Fighting Diary had truly appeared in front of him, he might have felt that the previous moment was just his own hallucination!

"However... who will receive my diary..."

Heaven Dou Empire, inside a luxurious palace filled with the scent of flowers.

Qian Ling'er, who had taken off her armor, was playing with her golden long hair, which shimmered with a brilliant luster under the moonlight.

Her long, snow-white jade legs were crossed casually.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Qian Ling'er's gaze shifted.

Her icy gaze landed on a diary that had appeared on the table beside her!

"A diary?"

Qian Ling'er's heart was filled with alarm.

She was very certain that there had been nothing on the table, yet someone had been able to silently place something there.

Could it be...

Her plan had already been exposed?!

She probed upward, picking up the diary. She looked at the cover, which was no different from any other, but the four words "Fighting Diary" piqued her curiosity.

"Diary? Whose diary is this?"

The diary did not have any fluctuations of Divine Power.

It didn't look like any kind of weapon either.

Qian Ling'er slowly relaxed her heart. She opened the cover of the diary. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she felt a faint glow.

However, there were no words inside.

"Strange..."

The existence of this object was somewhat beyond Qian Ling'er's understanding. Whose diary was this, and why did it appear on her table?

Did the other party know her identity?

At that moment, words slowly floated up on the first page of the diary.

[Fighting Diary: As one of the five people to whom this diary is released, you have the right to read this diary.]

[The existence of the diary may lead to communication with others who have the diary, and those who refuse will face divine punishment.]

[In addition, if you resonate with others who possess the diary, you can obtain special rewards from the Fighting Diary, change your destiny, and also obtain rewards.]

[The diary cannot be discarded or damaged.]

"..."

Qian Ling'er's beautiful eyes were filled with shock.

Such a mysterious method—could it really be the work of an existence beyond a Titled Douluo?!

After all, these words...

Were condensed out of thin air, without any Divine Power, or even any spiritual fluctuations!

"Is this asking me to read that mysterious person's diary?"

Qian Ling'er finally understood.

But...

It was just a diary, what was there to read? She still didn't have the interest to learn about other people's daily lives.

But... what did "destined trajectory" mean?

"Mofei... is this about the future?!"
