From Beyond the World, Obtain the Power to Deny the World

Ao Zhan said this not because he had lost his mind, but because he truly felt it was feasible.

Although Qian Renxue was not free from this world's Soul Master rules like he was, Snow Empress's Alien Energy existed within her body.

As the saying went—obtain the power to deny the world from beyond the world.

If they used Snow Empress's Alien Energy, Qian Renxue might be able to break through without using Soul Rings, and she could even create Self-Created Soul Skills.

Perhaps she might even comprehend Snow Empress's ultimate move, White Snow Holy Radiance.

But it would be very difficult. Using that move required the energy of six White Holes, and it would be extremely hard for Qian Renxue to cultivate such enormous energy.

Still, it could serve as a goal to strive toward.

Thinking this, Ao Zhan said to Golden Crocodile and the others, "Grandpas, I have an idea now. Xue'er, I need your cooperation."

He looked at Qian Renxue. Though she did not understand, she still nodded firmly. "Okay, Brother Zhan."

"Good. Now, I need you to find the conviction in your heart."

"My conviction?" Qian Renxue was somewhat confused.

"Yes. If you want to grow stronger without attaching Soul Rings like I do, then you need to find out what your conviction is—what you fight for, and why you want to become stronger."

A fountain could never rise higher than its source, and a Super Beast Warrior's Alien Energy could never surpass the conviction in their heart.

As long as Qian Renxue's conviction was strong enough, it might trigger the Snow Empress Alien Energy hidden within her body.

"Is that so..."

Qian Renxue closed her eyes and calmed herself, pondering what her conviction truly was.

What is my conviction? Qian Renxue could not help asking herself.

Is it to restore the Angel God's former glory? To let Spirit Hall unite the continent? Or to become someone like the God Ancestor?

No, none of those. They don't seem to be what I want.

She thought for a long time, yet she still did not know what her conviction was.

That was only natural.

Qian Renxue was merely a six-year-old child. Unlike Ao Zhan or Tang San, she did not possess memories from a past life. She had experienced too little, so finding the conviction in her heart was far too difficult.

"Love can create everything, and love can fill endless Black Holes."

"The greatest difference between love and hate is that love makes people yearn for the future and fills them with hope for it. Hate can only make people remember those painful past events."

"In a world of love, nothing is impossible."

"We exist for love."

Seeing that Qian Renxue seemingly could not find her conviction, Ao Zhan could not help speaking up.

Though he did not know what Qian Renxue's conviction was, he knew Snow Empress's.

After all, that woman had constantly gone on about her Great Love Theory. Even though he had not met Snow Empress many times, he remembered it perfectly clearly.

The Alien Energy within Qian Renxue came from Snow Empress, so it could be stirred through Snow Empress's conviction.

And since Alien Energy was tied to conviction, Qian Renxue's true conviction would surely erupt under these circumstances.

But Golden Crocodile and the others did not understand. Why was Ao Zhan suddenly going on about love?

Qian Renxue's entire body trembled when she heard those words. "Love?"

"We... exist for love?"

Bzzzz—!!!

Snow Empress's Alien Energy suddenly erupted within her body in holy white radiance, and Snow Empress's Great Love Theory unfolded completely before Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue blankly sensed those principles. She "saw" a golden-haired woman who revered light and believed that all things should exist beneath love's radiance. She wholeheartedly pursued absolute peace and hoped that every race could coexist without invading one another.

She had acted accordingly, making it her lifelong goal.

"In a world of love, nothing is impossible," the woman had said.

Qian Renxue murmured, "In a world of love, nothing is impossible. We exist for love... Is this my conviction?"

"No! That's wrong! This isn't mine!"

Fragments suddenly flashed through Qian Renxue's mind. Blood dyed the mountains and rivers, corpses piled like hills, and dead bodies lay everywhere.

Those corpses emitted evil, depraved, revolting auras.

She held a sword in her hand, blood covering her entire body. Like a demon emerging from hell, she seemed to have killed everyone around her herself, cutting them down with the sword in her hand.

Yet despite looking like a god of slaughter, she was beloved by countless commoners.

The reason was simple: those she had killed were depraved people and Evil Soul Masters who had slaughtered countless civilians for pleasure.

They had committed monstrous crimes across the continent. Thus, after she eradicated them, the commoners naturally adored her.

"Those Evil Soul Masters deserve death! They cannot be redeemed by love alone. Their blood must teach them fear and let them know they cannot act as they please! Judge the guilty! Pass judgment on the wicked! Protect the world! That is my conviction!"

These thoughts surfaced in Qian Renxue's heart. Though they did not seem like thoughts a six-year-old girl could have, they emerged from her heart with complete naturalness.

After sensing Qian Renxue's conviction, Snow Empress's Alien Energy burst forth in dazzling light. As it rapidly grew stronger, it also changed the original owner's conviction contained within the energy.

A moment later, the Alien Energy settled. Though it appeared unchanged, its core had already shifted from Snow Empress's conviction to Qian Renxue's.

And at that moment, a sudden change occurred.

Qian Renxue's body abruptly erupted with brilliant white light—bright and holy, yet carrying an intent to judge.

A strange energy surged through her entire body, and her aura began to rise.

When everything ended, Golden Crocodile and the others stared wide-eyed. Qian Renxue's Soul Power Level had actually broken through to level 23!

"This... this is simply... this is simply a miracle!"

Golden Crocodile and the others felt that their worldview had been completely overturned today.

There really were people who could break through without relying on Soul Rings—and there were two of them!

The Angel God truly had blessed them!

Ao Zhan, however, felt they were making a fuss over nothing. What was so remarkable about this?

Using the system, he had seen through the principle behind Qian Renxue's change.

Simply put, she had found the conviction in her heart to drive her Alien Energy. As that Alien Energy increased, it fused with the Soul Power within her body. Thus, as the Alien Energy rose, her Soul Power rose with it.

More importantly, Qian Renxue's transformation let Ao Zhan see a possibility—a possibility that could make everyone in Spirit Hall stronger and grant the entire Douluo Continent a bright future.

Obtaining the power to deny the world from beyond the world truly makes sense.

Ao Zhan thought this, a smile appearing on his face. "Xue'er, you did very well. Since you've succeeded, there'll be no need to seek out Soul Rings in the future. Cultivate with me instead. I'll teach you how to create Self-Created Soul Skills, but first, you need to properly comprehend the power you have gained."

"Okay!"
