God's Vessel

Qian Xunji understood. They wanted him to leave his mark on that world, even replace the original protagonist group's position, and become part of that world at its very roots.

At that moment, the Angel God King's voice suddenly dropped much lower, his tone carrying a cruel killing intent.

"There is one more, most important matter."

The Angel God King stared at Qian Xunji and said slowly, word by word, "The plan was decided during the meeting just now. The next time you depart for the Surface World, those four God Kings will each leave a strand of divine sense on you. Those four strands will follow you through the spatial passage."

Qian Xunji frowned. "What are they trying to do?"

"They cannot enter themselves, so they can only use divine sense to find substitutes." The Angel God King sneered.

"Once you reach the Surface World, their divine senses will leave your body. Those four strands will independently search that world for the most suitable talented individuals. They will possess those targets and guide them to draw the inheritances of that world's four God Kings. Once those inheritances are activated, they can use them as bridges to draw the other world's law power across realms."

Qian Xunji's gaze shifted slightly. Those four God Kings truly had a clever scheme. They wanted to cultivate God-Descension Vessels in that world.

"And your objective." The Angel God King looked at Qian Xunji with icy eyes.

"Is to find them after those divine senses have found their targets. Then kill them!"

Qian Xunji raised his head and met the God King's gaze.

"Kill the people they selected and Sever the bridges through which they absorb power." The Angel God King's voice echoed through the grand hall.

"We cannot allow them to obtain that world's laws. This must be handled cleanly and decisively. Do you understand?"

A cold smile curled across Qian Xunji's lips. Killing a few geniuses selected by divine senses? Sabotage like this was what he did best.

"Rest assured, God King." Qian Xunji bowed slightly, his tone calm yet cruel. "As long as they are people chosen by them, I guarantee that not a single one will survive."

"However, if I directly kill the inheritors they have chosen, will those four God Kings sense it?"

The Angel God King shook his head, his tone indifferent. "Not necessarily. The two worlds are separated by the Cosmic Barrier. Even if they sense something, they will only know that their divine sense has been destroyed. As for transmitting specific information, such as who killed the inheritor or how you did it, that is basically impossible."

Qian Xunji relaxed after hearing this and nodded. "I understand. As long as my identity is not exposed."

Then Qian Xunji recalled another matter. Looking at the Angel God King, he asked, "Then what about Xue'er in that world? You just said I should kill the inheritors of the other gods. Does Xue'er still need to inherit that world's Angel God Position?"

The Angel God King looked at him and directly rejected the suggestion. "No need. You will inherit that world's Angel God Position."

"Me?" Qian Xunji was completely stunned. His original plan had been to clear away Qian Renxue's obstacles and let her become a god smoothly. He had never expected the Angel God King to arrange the god position for him.

"That's right, you." The Angel God King explained, "The God Realm Committee's plan is this: We will wait until the inheritors selected by those four divine senses have advanced their God Trials to roughly the proper stage, then formally wage war against that world. At that time, we will completely open the passage between the two worlds."

The Angel God King paused before continuing, "At that moment, you can undergo the God Trials of both worlds simultaneously. You must use the opening of the passage between the two worlds to fuse all the Angel Origin of both worlds into yourself."

Qian Xunji quickly considered the logic behind this plan. He soon discovered something that did not add up.

He looked up at the Angel God King and voiced his doubt. "But if the other four God Kings do not intend to seek true inheritors and merely have their divine senses possess people, then once everything is over, won't they have no inheritors for their god positions? Why would they waste their efforts on this for nothing?"

Upon hearing this question, the Angel God King suddenly laughed. His laughter was filled with mockery.

"Do you truly think they are so kindhearted that they would hand their power and positions to people of the lower realm?" the Angel God King said coldly.

"After those four strands of divine sense find suitable people, they will not teach them anything at all. The divine senses will gradually alter the inheritors' bodies and souls without them realizing it. In the end, those so-called geniuses will be completely transformed into vessels without any self-awareness."

Qian Xunji was horrified.

The Angel God King continued to reveal the truth. "When the two worlds formally collide, those four God Kings will not need to descend to the lower realm at all. They only need to use the bridge of the God Trials and those vessels to directly draw that world's Divine Origin into themselves."

That was the true objective of those four God Kings. They were not seeking inheritors at all; they were looking for tubes they could use to suck blood across realms.

Qian Xunji stood where he was, a lingering fear rising in his heart. As he looked at the lofty Angel God King, a terrifying thought suddenly emerged in his mind: Since the other four God Kings operated this way, what about the Angel God King? Could he himself merely be a vessel chosen by the Angel God King as well?

The Angel God King had lived through countless ages and saw through Qian Xunji's thoughts at a glance.

"What, are you afraid?" The Angel God King chuckled, his tone easing somewhat. "Rest assured, I would not stoop to harming my own junior. Besides, after staying in this God Realm for so many years, I have long grown sick of their endless schemes and intrigues. All I want is a pure successor."

Qian Xunji immediately lowered his head and declared, "This junior naturally trusts Your Excellency, God King."

Though he said so aloud, he did not think so in the slightest. Entrusting his life to another person's mercy had never been his style.

He secretly resolved that he had to speed up Huang Tian's growth. If he could find a way to obtain the Dragon God Cores of both worlds and allow Huang Tian to evolve into a true Dragon God, he would have another trump card in hand. Then, even if something truly happened in the God Realm, with a Dragon God as an ally, he would not be left without the means to resist.

The Angel God King did not notice Qian Xunji's inner thoughts, nor could he be bothered to speculate about them. Pointing at the golden-red arm bone in Qian Xunji's hand, he said:

"Now, absorb that Angel Right Arm Bone first. It is a god-grade soul bone and possesses its own special properties. When you absorb it, it will automatically erase the poor-quality soul bone originally in your right arm and replace it directly."
