The instant Gu Chen's hand touched the Crystal Ball, it was firmly sucked onto it.

He then felt the energy that had appeared in his body after his Martial Soul awakened being drawn into the Crystal Ball.

The light within the Crystal Ball slowly rose, gradually becoming dazzlingly brilliant.

After roughly ninety percent of his Soul Power had been absorbed, Gu Chen could even sense that not all of his Innate Soul Power had yet been poured into it.

"Innate Full Soul Power—it's Innate Full Soul Power!" The Spirit Transmitter's voice could not help but tremble with excitement!

Innate Full Soul Power was not actually rare in this era.

At the very least, compared to Innate Full Soul Power tens of thousands of years ago, it was no longer quite so important.

But it truly had never appeared in a small place like this.

One had to know that if a genius with Innate Full Soul Power was properly nurtured, every one of them was destined to become a Title Douluo in the future.

If he could recruit him into the Spirit Pagoda...

The Spirit Transmitter's thoughts became active.

A promotion and a raise seemed to be beckoning to him!

"Child! Would you be willing to join the Spirit Pagoda? The Spirit Pagoda can even provide you with a Century Soul Spirit for free." The Spirit Transmitter crouched down and spoke excitedly to Gu Chen.

"Uh... I can't decide something like this. Could you let me discuss it with my elders first?" Gu Chen put on an expression of being afraid that the adults would scold him.

It was not that he did not want to join, but the Spirit Pagoda was indeed rather dangerous.

In Shrek's eyes, it was hardly any better than the Holy Spirit Cult.

What was more, joining the Spirit Pagoda meant he would inevitably have to stand against Shrek.

Standing against Shrek meant he would definitely have to face the protagonist of this era, the Son of the Sea God, Tang Wulin.

And how many people in the Spirit Pagoda were worthy of being his teacher?

It was not that he was arrogant. It was simply the confidence of a Double Pupil Bearer; he was almost unwilling to submit to anyone.

Heavenly Phoenix Douluo Leng Yaozhu might have been a decent choice, but what did Gu Chen covet?

Her body?

Gu Chen was not the sort to throw away his brains upon seeing a beautiful woman.

When it came to a fated protagonist, Gu Chen still intended to avoid the edge for now.

Either befriend him, or grow strong enough to slap him to death in one strike!

"Fine! If your parents agree, you can come back and find me!" After thinking it over, the Spirit Transmitter agreed to Gu Chen's request.

Those words truly left no room for objection. In the Spirit Transmitter's eyes, a six-year-old child naturally needed to seek his parents' opinions on certain matters.

"Sorry about that." Feeling apologetic inwardly, Gu Chen walked out of the Awakening Room.

After deceiving someone for the first time and immediately disappearing, he still felt a little guilty.

But only a little.

Gu Chen naturally had a house in Aolai City. As for how he got it?

The system would arrange every identity for him, making him look at least like a native resident.

On his way home, Gu Chen unexpectedly ran into Tang Wulin again.

The moment their gazes met after awakening their Martial Souls, they almost simultaneously clutched their chests.

Tang Wulin fell unconscious on the spot. After Gu Chen ran home, he tightly shut the door and felt the constant murderous urge flooding his mind. "System, what's going on?" he asked.

[May I ask the host, where does the Golden Dragon King Bloodline within Tang Wulin come from?]

"The Core of Destruction?"

[Correct.]

"But what does that have to do with the Core of Destruction?"

[Who did the Core of Destruction come from?]

"Purple Desolation Heaven-Extinguishing Dragon!"

Gu Chen's intelligence was at least above the line. Although there was not much information about this Ancestor of Sub-Dragons, he knew this much and immediately understood.

"You mean Tang Wulin and I both have a Core of Destruction in our bodies?"

[That is exactly right. The Golden Dragon King Bloodline and Core of Destruction within Tang Wulin are at least sealed, but there is no seal within the host. Although the host has a stronger bloodline advantage, it is also more violent. Either accelerate your growth and completely refine the bloodline, or be refined by the bloodline instead!]

[Furthermore, within a single timeline, the same thing can only exist once. Coupled with the influence of your bloodlines, one of the host and Tang Wulin will definitely die. The host will likely have to face many difficulties...]

"Can't neither of us die? I quite like Tang Wulin..." Gu Chen placed a hand over his chest and felt the Core of Destruction inside him as he spoke.

When he had read the novel back then, Thousand Day Dragon Burial had indeed left a deep impression on him. If possible, he truly did not want to fight a protagonist with such upright values.

Especially since one of the two of them had to die...

But the constant murderous urge coming from his chest irritated him immensely.

Just then, Gu Chen's Double Pupils emerged on their own.

A cool sensation entered Gu Chen's mind, calming him down.

"When the Purple Desolation Heaven-Extinguishing Dragon was first born, it couldn't have been this messed-up, right?"

Gu Chen furrowed his handsome brows and complained.

Just now, he had felt the urge to tear apart everything in his sight and bathe in the blood of all living beings.

Even now, that impulse to destroy everything made Gu Chen somewhat afraid.

If the Purple Desolation Heaven-Extinguishing Dragon had always been in such a state, it would have been strange if it had not gone mad. All one could say was that it deserved to be torn apart by the Dragon God.

The Purple Desolation Heaven-Extinguishing Dragon's instinct was to destroy everything, to kill everything it could perceive, and only then pass on its bloodline. (Kill them! Kill them all!)

Unlike the other Dragon Clan members, for the other dragons, fighting their way to the top was most important, while reproduction and mating came second.

"How do we solve this problem?" he asked the system.

Although Gu Chen disliked this state of losing reason and ignoring pain, he did not particularly reject it.

At critical moments, this state was still very important.

In this state, Gu Chen could even feel the energy from the Core of Destruction rampaging through his meridians, causing damage while increasing his destructive power.

It was equivalent to directly entering a berserk state!

The only drawback was that the longer the berserk state lasted, the more energy the Core of Destruction released. Sooner or later, he would die.

But Gu Chen was not particularly concerned about that. At worst, he would die again. If he could not beat Tang God King, then death was all it would amount to.

He had long been mentally prepared.

[Of course. Just use the Core of Creation!]

"Huh? How is that any different from riding an ox while looking for an ox? If I could get it, would I still need to ask you?"

Gu Chen froze at the system's answer, then replied.

Unless Gu Yuena willingly gave it to him, who could take the Core of Creation from her hands?

This system needed an upgrade. Once it upgraded to version 2.0, it should stop acting like an artificial idiot!

[Host, you underestimate this system too much. No matter how useless this system may be, it is not comparable to a floor tile!]

[For something like this so-called Core of Creation, this system could casually pull out an entire drawerful for you!]

"Wow, System, you're that amazing? Then may I ask whether my dear System can give me a drawerful of Cores of Creation?"

[Of course... not!]
