At this moment, it was not only Yuan Sect's higher-ups.
Everyone present turned to look at Lin Dong.
If Xiao Yan was the Child of Destiny in the Battle Through the Heavens World,
then everyone present unanimously believed
that Lin Dong was undoubtedly the Child of Destiny in this world!
This young man from a low-tier dynasty
had not only claimed first place in the Hundred Dynasties War,
but had also slaughtered every Yuan Sect disciple during this trial!
The Dao Sect members believed this even more firmly.
No matter how dire the situation, he could always find a sliver of hope.
This was clearly destiny's favor!
Thinking of this, quite a few sects quietly began drawing closer to Lin Dong.
They had seen firsthand
just how defiant a Child of Destiny could be!
He was practically as tenacious as an unkillable cockroach!
Even if the Exposure System had not descended this time,
Lin Dong and his two brothers would probably have escaped in the end and returned for revenge someday!
Seeing this, the expressions of Yuan Sect's three sect masters grew increasingly grim.
Douluo World--
Xiao Yan's experiences also made everyone in this world think of Tang San!
The Child of Destiny of their world was undoubtedly Tang San!
Not only had he led the Clear Sky Sect back into the world,
he had also steadily driven Spirit Hall into a desperate situation!
In the end, he had even attained godhood
and directly stood on equal footing with Spirit Hall's Angel God!
Looking at Spirit Hall instead,
although it had produced the Angel God, it had expended countless efforts.
Even Limit Douluo Qian Daoliu had perished because of it!
Then there was Tang San.
Someone else had only just become a god, and he had followed right after.
If that did not make him a Child of Destiny, then what did?
A sense of pride could not help rising within Tang San.
Naturally, he had already understood what everyone else could think of.
That was right. He was the one favored by destiny in this world!
Not only had Spirit Hall failed to suppress him,
it had instead become a stepping stone for his growth!
And now, he was carrying out the great cause of benefiting the continent!
He was the chosen one, and the only one!
[After advancing to Dou Zun, Xiao Yan began reforging a body for his master.] [To find the Soul Infant Fruit that could make up for the origin essence Yao Chen had lost to Soul Hall,] [he brought Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan to an ancient ruin newly revealed in the Beast Domain.] [There, he reunited with Qing Lin and successfully obtained the Soul Infant Fruit, as well as the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit Zi Yan needed.] [He also acquired a Dou Sheng arm bone and the Heaven-tier Dou Skill, Great Heaven Creation Palm!] [This trip into the secret realm left Xiao Yan richly rewarded.] [Xiao Yan then began reconstructing Yao Lao's body and fused the arm bone into it.] [At the critical moment, Soul Hall suddenly attacked, leaving the Starfall Pavilion unable to hold them off.] [At the moment of utmost peril, Yao Lao emerged from seclusion. Not only had his body been reforged, but he had also broken through to the Half-Saint realm in one stroke!] [With a wave of his hand, he repelled Soul Hall's powerful enemies and once again became the towering tree sheltering Xiao Yan!]
Half-Saint!
Yao Lao's true cultivation had actually reached the Half-Saint realm!
Perhaps his cultivation had not originally been this high,
but he had at least been at the peak of the Nine-Revolution Dou Zun realm!
Such an existence had actually needed to absorb Xiao Yan's meager Dou Zhe cultivation back then.
The more they thought about it, the more unbelievable it seemed!
Looking back now, that had probably only been Yao Lao's initial test for his disciple.
Under One Person World--
Wang Ye gazed lazily at the Light Screen, his voice tinged with envy.
"How enviable. Whenever the sky falls, there's always an expert there to hold it up."
"Xiao Yan's master is better than who knows how many mediocre teachers in this world~"
The feeling of always having someone shield him from the wind and rain
was truly wonderful!
Unfortunately, under normal circumstances,
when the sky fell, he was the one who had to bear it...
Battle Through the Heavens World--
"Those two wastes, the Eighth Heavenly Venerable and Ninth Heavenly Venerable!"
Seeing this, Hun Tiandi could finally no longer suppress his rage!
At this stage, Xiao Yan's rising prominence and Yao Lao's appearance
were already enough to draw Soul Hall's attention!
Yet Soul Hall had never sought assistance from the Soul Clan!
For one thing, they believed that a mere Half-Saint could not stir up much trouble.
After all, Soul Hall still had other factions keeping it in check,
and dealing with a Half-Saint was no easy task.
For another, Soul Hall and the Soul Clan were planning to seize the Tou She Ancient God Jade from the Eight Ancient Clans,
so they had no time to spare for some minor Half-Saint.
But if he had known this would happen, Hun Tiandi would rather have given up the Ancient Clan's Tou She Ancient God Jade
than fail to completely nip Xiao Yan in the bud!!
They had not reported him when he was a Dou Emperor,
ignored him when he was a Dou Zong,
and by the time he advanced to Dou Zun, he already had a Half-Saint protecting him!
Once the Half-Saint appeared, Xiao Yan had already entered the Ancient Clan's sphere of protection!
How were they supposed to deal with him now?!
A bunch of incompetents!
Everyone in Soul Hall deserved to die ten thousand deaths!
If they had eliminated Xiao Yan earlier, he would already rule the world now!
Facing Hun Tiandi's furious outburst, Xiao Yan merely lifted his eyes slightly
and replied calmly,
"Even if the Eighth and Ninth Heavenly Venerables had reported it, you would not have been able to spare anyone to deal with me."
"The moment my teacher became a Half-Saint, you no longer had any chance to take my life."
"It was not only the Eighth and Ninth Heavenly Venerables who underestimated me, but the entire Soul Clan."
Hun Tiandi: "..."
At this moment, his expression was ten thousand times uglier than pig liver!
What Xiao Yan said was indeed true.
Even if the Eighth and Ninth Heavenly Venerables had truly reported the matter,
he could not possibly have diverted his attention to deal with it.
So what if Xiao Yan was a remnant of the Xiao Clan?
How could he be allowed to shake the Soul Clan's thousand-year plan!
Therefore,
unless time itself could be reversed, this matter was destined to have no solution.
Who could have expected Xiao Yan to rise so quickly?
And the cause of it all
was that they had coveted the soul of the continent's foremost alchemist!
How ironic...
Could this be the so-called cycle of karma?
Douluo World--
If Hun Tiandi's expression was already as ugly as aged pig liver,
then Yu Xiaogang's expression at this moment was countless times more miserable than Hun Tiandi's!
Look at other people's masters.
Even when their disciples had already reached the Dou Zun realm,
they could still step forward to protect them in times of danger!
Not to mention that Yao Lao, now a Half-Saint,
could still carefully guide Xiao Yan in the art of alchemy!
In other words, even in the later stages,
Yao Lao remained indispensable to Xiao Yan!
What about himself?
Aside from offering Tang San a little help before he reached level thirty,
he had been practically useless afterward.
Even Dugu Bo's assistance to Tang San far surpassed his own!
Thinking of this, Yu Xiaogang wanted nothing more than to crawl into a crack in the ground!
Unlike Yu Xiaogang, whose focus lay elsewhere,
Tang San and the others were completely shaken by the terrifying strength of a Half-Saint.
A Dou Zun casually tearing through space was already astonishing,
yet a Dou Sheng could actually create an independent space!
On Douluo Continent, let alone tear through space,
even destroying half the continent would be considered a miracle!
Even Tang San, exalted as the Sea God, lacked the power to tear open the barriers of space!
If he truly could do that, would he not be able to break through the barrier between the God Realm and the human world at will?
Only then did Tang San realize
that the plane level of the Dou Qi Continent clearly far surpassed that of Douluo Continent!
The Dou Zuns there could already wield divine abilities beyond the reach of the gods of this world.
The might of Half-Saints and even Dou Shengs
was even more unimaginable to this world.
Most crucially,
cultivation in that world relied entirely on one's own hard work,
whereas advancement in this world required hunting soul beasts!
This made him unable to help wondering
whether this world's cultivation system had already become distorted...
But Tang San soon firmly rejected the thought in his heart.
It was not the world that was distorted; its laws were simply different!
The strong preying on the weak was the natural order!
Humans hunted soul beasts, but did soul beasts not also devour humans?
So what was wrong with hunting soul rings to increase their strength?
The fault did not lie with them, but with the laws of heaven and earth!
Tang San, who had only recently ascended to godhood, once more rekindled his thirst for power.
Becoming a god was far from enough!
He wanted to become an existence comparable to a Dou Sheng, or even a Dou Di!
