The system's sudden mission caught Qian Yufeng off guard.

But it was a mission to change Qian Daoliu's fate, which was quite good.

The system rewards were simply irresistible!

Emperor Armor!

The Aurora was already an invincible path; the more sets of armor he had, the more paths he could take!

Wonderful!

Furthermore, Qian Daoliu was one of the continent's top combatants. Before Tang San became a god, his existence was precisely what kept the other forces from acting rashly.

If Tang Hao faced him, even detonating all nine soul rings would not make him a match for Qian Daoliu.

Unfortunately, Qian Daoliu was the guardian of the Angel God's divine position and Qian Renxue's Guardian.

The final stage of the Angel God Trial required his life to be sacrificed before it could be opened.

If Qian Daoliu's soul power was strong enough, or if a god intervened, he might not necessarily die.

After all, with the Sea God's assistance, Bo Saixi and Tang Chen had ultimately become a couple through the union of their souls.

Qian Yufeng looked at Qian Daoliu and asked, "My dear nephew, when the future inheritor of the divine position arrives at the final stage, would you really give up your life to fulfill him or her?"

Qian Daoliu's eyes were filled with determination as he said, "I would. This is my duty, and it is also the duty of every Guardian throughout history!"

He had long prepared himself to offer everything. If someone from the Six-Winged Angel Lineage appeared who could inherit the divine position, he would ensure that person became a god!

Then he would die without regrets!

"But I... don't want to send you off," Qian Yufeng said gravely.

Qian Daoliu fell silent. This outcome could not be changed.

For Spirit Hall's future, someone had to make sacrifices.

Once the Angel God's inheritor appeared, Spirit Hall would find it effortless to change the continent's balance of power.

His son Qian Xunji's wish could also be fulfilled.

An idea flashed through Qian Yufeng's mind, and he immediately thought of what to say.

He said to Qian Daoliu, "During this trip, I went to the Far North and found a god's relic."

"Unfortunately, my Martial Soul was not suited to that god's inheritance, but I still gained some things that should help you."

A god's relic!

Qian Daoliu stared at him in astonishment. This was a major matter!

At present, the gods Qian Daoliu knew of were the Angel God, ancestor of the Six-Winged Angel Lineage, and the Sea God beyond the vast ocean.

"Second Uncle, which god left behind the Miracle you found?" he hurriedly asked.

Qian Yufeng said, "The Ice God. Unfortunately, my Martial Soul was unsuitable for inheriting this divine position."

He continued, "I also saw many secrets of cultivation inside and obtained a special cultivation method."

"Because the final stage of the Angel God's inheritance requires the sacrifice of your entire life, I remembered this matter."

"What does it say?" Qian Daoliu showed a hint of curiosity as well.

If it truly helped him, then being able to witness the birth of a new Angel God with his own eyes would count as witnessing history.

"People actually have two lives: one is the physical body, and the other is the soul!"

"For most people, especially those who have not begun cultivating, the soul is weak. Once the body loses its vitality, the soul disperses along with it."

"But if the soul is powerful, even after losing the body, one can be revived."

"That reminded me that the final trial of the Angel God's inheritance requires you to burn all your life force to open the final door for the inheritor."

"If your body loses its vitality but your soul is powerful, wouldn't that avoid this problem?"

As Qian Yufeng's words fell, Qian Daoliu sank into thought.

The final stage of the Angel God Trial required his blood to open the last door for the inheritor.

Both he and Bo Saixi would have to undergo this process.

"Bo Saixi..." Qian Daoliu was startled inwardly. Didn't that mean Bo Saixi could also change her fate of sacrificing her life?!

He looked up at Qian Yufeng, only to find a trace of disdain on the other man's face.

Qian Yufeng knew that his dear nephew had started thinking about that woman from the sea again.

Come on, you were already so old. How could you still be such a hopeless romantic?!

The original author's handling of this love triangle was truly masterful!

Bo Saixi liked Tang Chen. He had genuinely drawn her in with his personal charm!

"I say, dear nephew, you aren't thinking about that woman from the sea, are you?"

"I told you long ago that she liked Tang Chen. That bet was only an excuse!"

"Tang Chen was just too slow on the uptake. Otherwise, the two of them would have been living happily together on Sea God Island long ago!"

Qian Yufeng's words were like a sharp blade, making Qian Daoliu deeply uncomfortable.

He sighed softly. "I merely find it regrettable. Bo Saixi is also someone worthy of respect. We can be considered friends, and when that day truly comes, I cannot help but feel somewhat..."

"The relationship between Spirit Hall and the Clear Sky Sect changed after the two of you retired. Stop clinging to fantasies."

"Don't wait until the day Tang Chen and Bo Saixi stand hand in hand in Spirit City before you recognize reality!"

Qian Yufeng knew his dear nephew's hypocrisy all too well. He was still harboring fantasies.

But if Spirit Hall truly wanted to unify the continent in the future, conflict with the Clear Sky Sect would be inevitable.

In this era, establishing some so-called federation was unrealistic.

Where interests were involved, Tang Chen would not show goodwill toward Spirit Hall merely because of personal ties.

"Second Uncle, I..." Qian Daoliu wanted to argue, but Qian Yufeng interrupted him.

"Amian never blamed you in her life. Back then, you ignored my objections and went to Sea God Island. Do you know how deeply you hurt her... yet in the end, she still never blamed you!"

"I'm telling you this for your sake, for Xunji's sake, and for the Qian Family's sake. When have you ever considered your own family?!"

"I'm already one hundred and eighty years old, and I've treated you like my own son. Is this all the backbone you have?!"

Qian Yufeng was truly speechless. Couldn't this guy mature a little and be more decisive?!

Damn it, I'm working so hard to change your ending, and you're already thinking of outsiders first.

Qian Daoliu said nothing more. Since Second Uncle's attitude was so firm, he would stop considering so much.

He said, "Second Uncle, I know what I should do. Does this cultivation method have any requirements?"

"With your current cultivation, you exceed them by far."

"You should reach mastery in roughly ten years, making your soul stable and powerful."

As Qian Yufeng spoke, he retrieved the [Soul Cultivation Method].

Since it was a designated item, naturally only Qian Daoliu could cultivate it.

Seeing that condition, Qian Yufeng could finally make Qian Daoliu give up completely.

"This cultivation method is bound to you. After you cultivate it, no one else can cultivate it again. If you forcibly pass it on, the consequences will be unimaginable."

After saying that, he pretended to take something from his storage Soul Tool, when in reality he was retrieving the item from the System Inventory.

A jade slip appeared in his hand, and he held it out before Qian Daoliu.

"With a drop of your blood, you can obtain the contents within."

Qian Daoliu used Soul Power to cut open his right index finger. A drop of blood fell upon the jade slip, which then transformed into a streak of light and flew into his glabella.

After a moment of dizziness, a method for cultivating Soul Force appeared in his mind.

"Cultivate the soul, construct a Spirit Body, let the spirit remain undying, and exist forever..."

Qian Daoliu savored it carefully, and his eyes grew brighter and brighter.

If he could truly cultivate a Spirit Body, then after fulfilling his duty as a Guardian, he could gain a new life!

"Second Uncle, thank you!" he said with gratitude on his face.

"Study it yourself. Learn to let go of certain things."

Qian Yufeng waved his hand and sighed.

"Love was something I once hoped to possess as well, but it was illusory. She is no longer in this world."

"It is also time for Spirit Hall and the Heaven Dou Empire to settle their accounts."

Qian Daoliu's expression immediately changed. He inwardly thought that things were bad—hadn't Second Uncle lost his deepest bond?!

He hurriedly urged, "Second Uncle, you must stay calm!"
