"Perhaps. But a Divine Artifact's destructive power should be more than this. Either the ring you spoke of isn't a Divine Artifact, or the person using it cannot fully unleash its power."

"I personally lean toward... the latter." After pondering for a while, Qian Renxue came to that conclusion.

It couldn't be helped. This era had no offensive Soul Tools. Something capable of unleashing such terrifying attacks could only be a Divine Artifact.

Even Qian Renxue, someone who had truly come into contact with a Divine Artifact, still held to that belief.

More importantly, she had not truly mastered a Divine Artifact, nor was her cultivation high enough. She could only judge based on Snake Lance Douluo and Puffer Douluo's accounts. Once her own cultivation rose, she would easily see that while the Sun God Needle was powerful, it lacked the unique "Divinity" of a Divine Artifact.

Well, without divine power, how could it be considered a Divine Artifact?

Yet Qian Renxue's "certification" had, to a certain extent, strengthened the Sun God Needle's deterrence.

Especially among the powerful figures of Spirit Hall's faction.

If it truly was a Divine Artifact, could they guarantee that this was the strongest attack it could unleash?

What if it really could erupt with a god-level strike? Wouldn't they be blown to pieces?

"No matter what, as long as he isn't targeting you, do not meddle with this person who possesses a Divine Artifact. Do not offend him!" Qian Renxue's tone turned serious as well.

She knew just how powerful gods were.

"Understood, Your Highness." Snake Lance Douluo and Puffer Douluo nodded hurriedly.

The two of them had cultivated to the rank of Titled Douluo. They were not idiots. Why would they knowingly rush to their deaths against someone they could not afford to provoke?

"I would like to meet that person and see whether he inherited a Deity's legacy or simply got lucky and obtained a Divine Artifact..." Qian Renxue murmured softly.

Elsewhere.

Chen Yumo lay limply in a recliner, great beads of sweat rolling down from his forehead.

Though the exhaustion between his brows was impossible to conceal, his smile was dazzlingly bright, his mouth nearly stretched to his ears.

"Awesome!!!"

The Sun God Needle could proportionally expand the range of spiritual detection, but its consumption of spiritual power was equally terrifying.

From the moment Chen Yumo raised his hand and threw the Sun God Needle, to the attack's eruption, then contacting it through the System Space to retrieve it from the sky, the entire process had taken less than half a minute. Yet Chen Yumo's spiritual power had been drained completely.

He was currently suffering from spiritual overexertion. The fact that he had not immediately fainted was already proof of his formidable willpower.

Still, the constant dizziness in his mind made his vision darken in waves.

He was exhausted, but it felt unbelievably good.

It was Chen Yumo's first time using the Sun God Needle's ability to amplify spiritual power. That feeling of controlling everything was truly intoxicating.

Power. This was true power!

His mind was severely overdrawn, yet it did not diminish his exhilaration in the slightest.

More importantly, the Sun God Needle provided by the system could actually establish a connection with the System Space. When Chen Yumo wanted to bring it down from the sky, it crossed space on its own and returned to his Portable Space.

This perfectly avoided the risk of exposing his own location when the Sun God Needle returned.

Chen Yumo had put on a spectacular show, and he did not even need to worry about anyone finding him afterward.

Now that he had blasted the Great Soul Arena, as long as those running it were not fools, they would not come looking to trouble Chen Yumo again.

For those behind the Great Soul Arena, Chen Yumo had indeed slapped them hard across the face this time, but their actual losses were not significant.

At most, one building had been destroyed and one person in charge had died.

Compared to thoroughly offending a Titled Douluo, such a price was already very small.

Next, Chen Yumo could use that Purple Gold Card openly and without concern.

However...

To be safe, he would wait a little longer.

He would act only after the Sun God Needle had finished charging again and his safety was guaranteed.

That was how it was when one had no backing. Every action required considering the consequences. Strictly speaking, Chen Yumo had not been rational enough in using the Sun God Needle twice in a row.

There had been better ways to handle it.

But the problem was, he had already transmigrated. When he had no power, he had to watch people's expressions. Now that he clearly possessed enough power, what was the point of living if he still cowered and acted submissively?

Even if acting on a moment of pride sometimes brought considerable trouble, Chen Yumo did not regret it.

Being prudent did not mean endlessly retreating whenever trouble arose.

Over the next few days, Heaven Dou City fell into a strange atmosphere.

After the Sun God Needle's first bombardment of the imperial palace, the people of Heaven Dou City might still have dared to watch the spectacle.

But after two consecutive eruptions, the Heaven Dou Imperial Family had offered no response. That meant this powerful individual was likely still in Heaven Dou City, and even the Heaven Dou Imperial Family might not be able to afford provoking him.

How could people like them dare gossip about such a powerhouse?

As a result, fewer people in Heaven Dou City discussed the matter instead.

As Chen Yumo walked through the streets, he could barely hear anyone talking about what had happened. Even when someone mentioned it, their expressions were guarded and evasive.

It left him both amused and helpless.

Yes, this was the privilege of the strong.

When you were powerful enough, others not only dared not offend you, but even mentioning you required the utmost caution.

Only after the Sun God Needle had fully recharged did Chen Yumo resume Mo Yu's identity. He found a Tiandou Bank and withdrew the money he had earned from the Great Soul Arena.

The entire process went incredibly smoothly.

He encountered not the slightest obstacle.

This also proved that Chen Yumo's guess had been correct. Once he displayed a sufficiently large fist, ninety-nine percent of his troubles simply vanished.

The remaining one percent was likely that more people had begun watching him in secret.

That was unavoidable.

After the mysterious powerhouse attacked the Great Soul Arena, the Heaven Dou Imperial Family would certainly investigate it, determining exactly whom the arena had offended. Mo Yu, the talented young Spirit Master who had served as the fuse, would inevitably come to light.

But so what?

Even if they knew that Mo Yu was at the center of the entire storm, would anyone dare lay a hand on him?

No one dared.

Because everyone feared that blazing sun would rise again, followed by a beam of light that would vaporize them into thin air.

Even Xue Ye, whose roof had been torn off after being caught in the blast, could only grit his teeth and swallow his anger.

For no other reason than that the Heaven Dou Empire had no Titled Douluo!

Dugu Bo was indeed a Titled Douluo, but he was merely a guest elder. He was not bound by the Heaven Dou Imperial Family's orders, nor would he risk his life against another Titled Douluo over such a trivial matter!

This incident had indeed drawn the attention of many parties to Chen Yumo's identity, but it also made that identity completely unobstructed within Heaven Dou City!

"Strike one punch to clear the way, and spare yourself a hundred more!"

Fists were confidence, and range was truth!
