Physical Castration and Mental Castration! Poor Oscar!

"God of Speed": Ah Yin really was unfortunate, running into that father-son pair, Tang Hao and Tang San.

First Hong nodded in agreement.

If Ah Yin had gotten together with Tang Xiao back then, she definitely would have gone straight back to the Clear Sky Sect and laid low until she transformed into human form, instead of being dragged around everywhere and ending up noticed by Spirit Hall.

"God of Phoenix": Huh? I found a loophole!

"God of Phoenix": Could Tang Hao have done it on purpose? He knew Ah Yin hadn't reached Level 70 yet, but still wandered all over the human world with her.

"God of Speed": Who knows? Anyway, Ah Yin sacrificed herself.

"Nine Color Goddess": Didn't Tang Hao drown his sorrows in drink for years because of Ah Yin's death?

"God of Emotion": As far as I know, the Clear Sky Sect suffered severe losses because of it back then, and Tang Hao's father died as a result. Maybe that was what broke him?

"Nine Color Goddess": Ah. That was possible too.

"God of Phoenix": Speaking of which, after Tang Hao and Ah Yin became gods using my first-class divine authority, why were they allowed to remain in the mortal world?

"God King of Destruction 002": Tang San held the Asura God King's authority of inspection and said he had arranged for them to oversee the mortal world.

"God of Phoenix": Heh! Typical abuse of public power for private gain!

"That's enough." Flender spoke again. "It's already night. Everyone, go back and rest. Tomorrow, we'll set out for the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt Spirit Rings for Tang San and Ning Rongrong."

This time, First Hong did not interrupt, and everyone dispersed.

He watched the gods in the Livestream Room expose all kinds of dirt on Tang San's family.

He found it immensely entertaining.

While he was at it, he extracted the Level 10 Soul Tool Master Complete Analysis and the Space Ring gifted by the God of Emotion.

The former was purely theoretical and came without experience.

It helped First Hong identify the grades, functions, and methods of use for the large number of Soul Tools inside the Space Ring.

The Soul Tools ranged from Level 1 to Level 10, practically the greatest arsenal in the Douluo world.

But First Hong lost interest after only a few glances.

Even with a sealed Milk Bottle, Soul Tools still required one's own Soul Power to activate.

Aiming, locking on, and firing were all technical work too.

How could they compare to simply using divine sense and divine skills?

This Space Ring, on the other hand, was two hundred meters in length, width, and height. It was also a defensive Soul Tool that would deploy an Invincible Shield when attacked.

A necessity for home and travel.

Not bad, not bad.

Just then.

Oscar sidled over and grinned at First Hong.

"First, I know it's a little presumptuous to ask, but—"

"If it's presumptuous, why are you asking?" First Hong did not even look up.

"..."

That single sentence left Oscar speechless, standing there blankly without knowing how to begin.

First Hong did not need to ask to know why Oscar had come.

But.

Sorry.

The future you had not topped up, so he did not want to give you anything.

"God of Phoenix": Streamer, among the Shrek group, Oscar is the only one who might be able to become a god on his own.

"God of Phoenix": He was only led astray by me and Old Dai... Dai Mubai.

"God of Phoenix": The streamer does not need to help much. Just give him a few Soul Pills.

First Hong said.

Your opinion did not count. It depended on the top three big shots on his ranking list.

Nine Color Goddess, what do you think?

There was a pause of several seconds on the other side, as though she was hesitating too.

"Nine Color Goddess": I just bought this godhood cultivation method from the Buddha God for Oscar. Streamer, please make sure he cultivates it!

"God-Given Spirit Ring" ×10

"Nine Color Goddess": Doesn't he like close combat? Give him one to cultivate an Indestructible Body of a Vajra, then use the God-Given Spirit Rings to guide him into obtaining Mirror Image Sausage.

"Nine Color Goddess": I would like to see whether he becomes the God of Cookery or the God of War.

First Hong blinked.

Huh?

Weren't you and the God of Cookery already living separately? Why were you giving away so many things?

Something was fishy!

First Hong extracted the Tibetan Esoteric Vajra Zen.

"Damn—"

Good lord!

Tibetan Esoteric Vajra Zen focused on body refinement with cultivation as a supplement, and the process was practically self-torture.

Things like thrusting into iron sand and the Iron Crotch Skill were pathetic by comparison.

This one had you jump off cliffs, leap into the sea, hold your breath until suffocation, and even bathe in magma!!!

Was this cultivation?

It was more like courting death!

Normally, you also had to practice Silence Zen, supposedly to improve the efficiency of body refinement.

But making chatterbox Oscar shut up?

That would be more unbearable than killing him!

Besides that.

He had to abstain from desire, anger, greed, and obsession.

It was practically an eighteen-plus discipline!

No!

The Sunflower Manual physically castrates you, while this mentally castrates you?!

Physical castration at least cuts off those thoughts, leaving you able to focus single-mindedly on becoming stronger.

But mental castration is just toughing it out, suffering every day?

Damn—

"Nine Color Goddess": He can choose not to cultivate it.

Uh, can you really make him give up?

"Nine Color Goddess": Then I'll have to trouble the streamer to awaken his fighting spirit to become stronger.

...

Fine, fine, fine!

So that was how you wanted to play it.

Unless Oscar died, he would not be able to escape, huh?

Tsk!

Tell me, why did you have to provoke a goddess for no reason?

"God of Speed": Rongrong, this idea is great!

"God of Speed": I was still thinking about how to create a cultivation method, and you already have the whole set ready?

"God of Speed": You wouldn't mind making a set for Dai Mubai too, would you?

"Nine Color Goddess": Why be so formal between sisters? Take it and use it!

User "God of Speed" sent a gift: "Lovesick Heartbreak Red" ×3

"God of Speed": Streamer, I have high hopes for you!

First Hong: ...

No wonder they said the most poisonous hearts belonged to women.

Ruthless enough!

First Hong withdrew his attention and looked pityingly at Oscar, who was still struggling.

"You want to become stronger, right?" First Hong asked.

"Huh? Yes!" Oscar said eagerly. "Even though I'm only a support-type Soul Master, I want to become stronger too! I want to support everyone better!"

"I understand. Even as a support, you have the heart of a damage dealer." First Hong nodded.

Oscar was confused by that.

The heart of a damage dealer?

He had never said that!

"Since we're roommates, I'll give you an opportunity."

First Hong continued on his own—

"I have a cultivation method called Tibetan Esoteric Vajra Zen. After it was created, no one was willing to try it because the training conditions were too harsh."

"I can give you an opportunity to test this Tibetan Esoteric Vajra Zen for me. Use the Immortal Herb, Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, to get started. Your physical strength will rival that of an assault-type Soul Master at the same rank, and your defense will likewise rival that of a defense-type Soul Master at the same rank."

"It's just that the cultivation process is rather agonizing."

"But if you can persist, I can promise to do my best to train you, even allowing you to possess combat-type Soul Skills."

Oscar's breathing quickened, and his eyes widened!

That strong?

Turning a support-type Soul Master like him into a dual assault-defense Soul Master?!

That was absurd!

But Tang San's case had come first. If soul transmigration and body possession from another world could exist.

Then what was so impossible about some miraculous "Self-Created Soul Skills" being held in the hands of only a select few?

He had only wanted to get a few Soul Pills to increase his Spirit Ring Age.

He had never imagined a pie would fall from the sky?!

Although this was supposedly to assist with an experiment, and there were risks.

But do not forget.

First Hong had mastered the "Divine Skill: Resurrection Divine Light"!

Was there any need to hesitate?

"No problem!" Oscar said without the slightest hesitation. "I'm willing to cooperate!"

Tsk!

He was rushing headlong into a pit of fire.

Knowing just how terrifying Tibetan Esoteric Vajra Zen was, First Hong decided to give him a warning first.

"Let me make this clear first. I'm training you to collect data. Once you begin, there is absolutely no backing out. Even if you die, I'll revive you!"

"Are you sure you've thought this through?"
