Gu Chen carefully sensed every part of his body, as though he could feel power flowing through his veins.
Suddenly, a long spear appeared in his hand, radiating brilliant light.
The long spear was roughly two meters long, its entire body emitting a noble purple-gold glow.
Its shaft was straight as a pine and incomparably sturdy; its spearhead was sharp as a blade, glinting with cold light; its tip was shaped like a dragon's head, its eyes wide with fury, majestic and domineering.
The entire spear resembled a colossal dragon coiled in repose, exuding endless pressure.
Under the sunlight, the Purple Desolation Heaven-Falling Divine Spear gleamed with dazzling purple radiance, like a brilliant star.
Faintly, a layer of pale blood-red patterns could be seen covering the spear's body. They were not shaped like scales, but rather indistinct dark dragon patterns.
These patterns made the entire long spear seem even more mysterious and noble, inspiring involuntary awe.
This was a Super Divine Artifact—the Purple Desolation Heaven-Falling Divine Spear! The might it displayed far surpassed the shock that ordinary weapons could bring.
The Golden Dragon Spear and Silver Dragon Spear were powerful weapons as well, but they were merely divine artifacts.
However, only after the Golden Dragon Spear perfectly fused with the Dragon Ascension Pillar did it advance into a Super Divine Artifact—the Dragon God Spear.
Likewise, the first-generation Sea God's fish fork had undergone ten thousand years of refinement in Tang San's hands before it became a Super Divine Artifact—the Sea God Trident.
By comparison, the Purple Desolation Heaven-Falling Divine Spear was a pure Super Divine Artifact. Its value went without saying.
Gu Chen had never come into contact with the Golden Dragon Spear or Silver Dragon Spear, but he could infer from the information in the original work!
Whether it was the devouring power of the Golden Dragon Spear and Silver Dragon Spear, or the power of the Sea God Trident, almost none of them could compare to the might of the Purple Desolation Heaven-Falling Divine Spear.
If someone was killed by the Purple Desolation Heaven-Falling Divine Spear, they were dead. There was no bringing them back.
At least when it came to killing power, the Purple Desolation Heaven-Falling Divine Spear... was leagues ahead!
Gu Chen picked up the Purple Desolation Heaven-Falling Divine Spear and tried to swing it, only to find it extremely strenuous.
After all, the divine spear was much taller than he was, and he was still young. Wielding it freely was simply a fantasy.
However, this did not discourage Gu Chen. Instead, it stirred his curiosity and desire to explore.
Over the next stretch of time, Gu Chen also tried using Martial Soul Possession with the Purple Desolation Heaven-Extinguishing Dragon.
He seemed to transform into a ferocious colossal dragon, possessing unmatched strength and majesty.
The wondrous experience thrilled him beyond measure, like a child rediscovering the innocence and joy of childhood.
Night gradually fell, and darkness engulfed the entire house.
Gu Chen threw himself onto the bed, pulled the covers over himself, closed his eyes, emptied his mind, and slowly entered deep sleep.
After the day's events, he truly felt exhausted.
Moreover, he had to treat his plans for the future with caution.
Setting everything else aside, the issue of the bloodline within his body alone could bring him endless trouble.
Therefore, he had to handle it carefully to avoid drawing unnecessary attention.
The Purple Desolation Heaven-Extinguishing Dragon was the Martial Soul once possessed by Xu Tianran of the Sun Moon Empire ten thousand years ago. Who knew whether others would regard him as Xu Tianran's descendant? (Though Xu Tianran couldn't do that, of course.)
Still, even if someone set their sights on him, he was not afraid.
Before dying, he could drag anyone down with him!
The fully unleashed Core of Destruction was enough to take a Second-Class God down with him!
Early the next morning, Gu Chen groggily climbed out of bed, put on his slippers, walked into the bathroom, turned on the faucet, and splashed cold water onto his face.
As the icy water scattered across his face, Gu Chen became noticeably more awake.
[The system has completely sealed the host's Core of Destruction and bloodline. Unless the host permits it, neither the Core of Destruction nor the bloodline will cause any problems. However, the Martial Soul cannot be used either!]
As Gu Chen stared blankly at his reflection in the mirror, the system's emotionless mechanical voice entered his mind.
"Thanks. It's a little regrettable that I can't use my second Martial Soul, but my Double Pupils are enough!" Even knowing that he could not use the Purple Desolation Heaven-Extinguishing Dragon, Gu Chen felt no disappointment.
To him, the Double Pupils were far more important than his bloodline.
No matter how impressive the origins of the Purple Desolation Heaven-Extinguishing Dragon were, it ultimately belonged to this plane and was subject to its rules. The Double Pupils, however, came from a higher plane and completely crushed the Purple Desolation Heaven-Extinguishing Dragon in terms of status.
Even weakened by the influence of this world, they were still no weaker than the Purple Desolation Heaven-Extinguishing Dragon—only stronger!
Gu Chen fetched a basin of hot water, soaked a towel in it, and wiped his face. Then he took out a cup and toothbrush, squeezed out some toothpaste, and began brushing his teeth.
Everything was peaceful, like the life of an ordinary person.
Though he was somewhat immersed in such a life, once he joined those schemes in the future, he probably would not be able to remain this free.
After tidying everything up, Gu Chen left the house, locked the door, and headed toward the street.
Gu Chen looked over the shops lining both sides of the street and casually picked a noodle shop to enter. Halfway there, his feet suddenly stopped. His purple-gold eyes shifted, and from the corner of his eye, he spotted a silver-haired figure at the mouth of an alley.
"..."
What rotten luck!
He had run into the Silver Dragon King's avatar just by stepping outside.
Gu Chen turned around, intending to go home and make do with something, when he saw several young men with dyed, ridiculous hairstyles walking toward the silver-haired girl.
Seeing this, Gu Chen fell silent once more.
He did not know whether he should save her.
If he did not save her, his conscience, shaped by nine years of compulsory education in his previous life, could not accept it!
But if he did save her, was it really wise to expose himself, a human with the bloodline of the Dragon of Destruction, before the Silver Dragon King?
Even though she no longer had any memories now.
But he did not dare gamble. If he lost the bet and Gu Yue chose to kill him, his life would be over!
He would be completely devoured...
And that would be devoured in the truest sense—his bloodline drained dry and his flesh eaten.
Gu Chen's conscience and reason began to clash.
Conscience: "Setting aside the fact that Na'er is the Silver Dragon King's avatar, she is just an ordinary child right now!
Is there something wrong with that?"
Reason: "You had better think this through. If you throw away your own life to save someone else, is it really worth it? This is the correct choice any normal person would make, so ignore her and leave now!"
In the end, the values taught by the great motherland in his previous life prevailed.
Gu Chen stopped, let out a deep sigh, turned around, and walked toward the people at the mouth of the alley.
Gu Chen did not regret this choice. He only hoped that he could truly raise a good little sister in the future—one who would not Backstab him.
In his previous life's Shrouding the Heavens, most people had cultivated until they lost their humanity, but he did not want to become that kind of person.
Nothing else mattered. As long as she did not betray him, everything else was irrelevant.
Gu Chen's Mental Power was very strong. At a glance, he saw that these delinquent youths were all soul masters without Spirit Rings. With the Double Pupils' extraordinarily powerful dynamic vision, he could beat them into dogs barehanded.
