"Has that Goddess gone to the God Realm?"

Watching the gentle yet dignified Goddess depart, Qian Renxue braced her hands on her knees and gasped for breath.

Having a god standing before her had put far too much pressure on her!

This was also the first time she had seen a Goddess so directly.

"Hello, little brother. I'm Qian Renxue, the Holy Maiden of Spirit Hall."

Qian Renxue looked at Li Qinglian and hurried over to greet him.

Her smile was radiant.

She did not want to leave a bad impression on Li Qinglian.

Li Qinglian looked like a human child, but his backing was formidable!

For all she knew, he might be that Goddess's biological child!

That Goddess had even been able to grant a godhood to whoever cared for him. What did that imply?

Someone like him would definitely become a god in the future!

Even though he was still young, Qian Renxue did not dare offend someone like that in the slightest.

Otherwise, even if she became a god and went to the God Realm in the future, what if someone made things difficult for her?

On Douluo Continent, she was the direct daughter of the Qian family, with an overwhelming background. But once she went to the God Realm, she would only be a rookie. Who could she rely on then?

"My name is Li Qinglian. I'm six years old this year."

"I'm tired. I want to rest first."

Li Qinglian had no interest in chatting with Qian Renxue.

He needed to study the Seed of Life the Goddess of Life had bestowed upon him.

Too much had happened to him over the past few days. He needed to sort it all out properly.

"Alright. Big sister will take you there."

Qian Renxue's voice turned soft and sweet, almost coquettish.

Qian Renxue only spoke like this at times like these. Her usual tone was somewhat fierce, and she was afraid of scaring Li Qinglian.

At that moment!

Li Qinglian could not help but sigh.

Money really did make the world go round. It was fucking real!

Even a proud woman like Qian Renxue would bow her head when she encountered someone on a higher level than herself. She would even speak in a syrupy, cutesy voice!

"Seed of Life!"

"This should be the most valuable thing on the Goddess of Life, right? It is countless times more precious than the Water of Life she possesses."

"If the Goddess of Life were willing to cultivate it, she could even use this Seed of Life to create another Tree of Life as her avatar."

As if enlightenment had struck, waves of information about the Seed of Life flooded Li Qinglian's mind, leaving him deeply shaken!

It was only because the Goddess of Life disliked conflict.

Otherwise, the Goddess of Life's methods might even have given her a chance to become the foremost being in the God Realm.

Especially as all living beings continued to multiply, with their numbers and varieties growing ever richer, the energy the Goddess of Life could draw upon far surpassed that of the other God Kings.

"However, the Seed of Life has been planted in my heart. Will it become my second martial soul? Or will some other mutation occur later?"

"Life and death are not opposites. Life and death form Reincarnation. The cycle of life and death is far more advanced than the duality of ice and fire."

Li Qinglian frowned.

If Li Qinglian wanted to surpass Destruction, Evil God, and Asura God in the future, he needed a source power stronger than destruction, evil, and slaughter.

The source of death was clearly not enough!

Death's upper limit was roughly the same as destruction's and evil's.

No matter how creatively Li Qinglian used it, he could at most be a little stronger than those God Kings. He could not open up too great a gap.

Only by mastering a higher-level power would Li Qinglian be qualified to become the ruler of the God Realm.

"What Gu Yuena said before the Goddess of Life and I left was obviously meant for me. She also wants me to go further and become an existence like the ruler of the God Realm."

Li Qinglian pinched his chin, his eyes gleaming.

Even though Li Qinglian and Gu Yuena currently had a fairly good relationship.

Everyone knew that if Li Qinglian merely became an ordinary Death God King in the future, he still would not give up suppressing Gu Yuena. He might simply be more discreet about it.

The Silver Dragon King's power was comparable to that of two God Kings.

Unless one day Li Qinglian's strength surpassed Gu Yuena's, he would never truly feel at ease.

Everyone understood this perfectly well.

"Gu Yuena really has a lot of confidence in me."

"It seems that next time I go to the Star Dou Great Forest, I'll have to squeeze a few more good things out of her."

"How can she only want benefits without thinking about giving anything in return?"

Li Qinglian pondered what other assets Gu Yuena possessed that were worth coveting.

However, if he simply went straight to the Star Dou Great Forest and tried to extort some benefits from Gu Yuena, it would be difficult.

He also had to prove his value!

He had to prove that his future would surpass God Kings like Destruction and Evil God!

"Reincarnation!"

"If I master the power of Reincarnation, I can become the ruler of the God Realm!"

"Reincarnation is formed from life and death. The source of Reincarnation is above life and death alone."

Li Qinglian's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

If the Seed of Life left to him by the Goddess of Life could truly play a major role, it might help him comprehend the Great Dao of Life.

Combined with his Death Divine Tree body...

The future looked promising!

"I remember that plants can be grafted, right?"

"If an apple branch is grafted onto a pear tree, it can bear apples or fruit with the characteristics of both."

"The human body is highly adaptable, but in truth, plants may be the most adaptable of all..."

Li Qinglian suddenly felt that he had found a theoretical basis for his Dao of Reincarnation, though he was still somewhat lost on how to put it into practice.

However, his older sisters were all God Kings or Dragon Kings. When the time came, he could ask them.

Li Qinglian would not foolishly ignore shortcuts and blindly experiment on his own.

Attendant Hall.

Specks of golden light gathered, forming the projection of the Angel God.

Only after the Goddess of Life had left did the Angel God dare show herself.

She was truly afraid that the Goddess of Life would entrust that child to her care. She did not want to bear the wrath of the Destruction God King!

She did not know where the child named Li Qinglian had come from, but the fact that the Goddess of Life had not brought him back to the God Realm and instead handed him over to Spirit Hall already explained everything.

That child definitely could not be brought before the God of Destruction!

"Lord Angel, who was that Goddess just now?"

Qian Daoliu waited carefully at the side and asked.

"That was the Goddess of Life from the God Realm. She is one of the five strongest beings in the God Realm and holds an extremely high status there."

"Since she has spoken, she will not go back on the benefits promised to you."

The Angel God spoke solemnly.

Qian Daoliu and Qian Renxue exchanged glances, their hearts filled with shock.

There were likely no fewer than several hundred gods in the God Realm, and if the numerous god officials and law enforcement squads were included, the number would be even greater.

Yet that Goddess was one of the five supreme beings of the God Realm.

They had struck it rich this time.

Setting aside the benefits promised by the Goddess of Life, merely forming a good relationship with her would bring no small number of hidden advantages.

"Though there are certain risks, they are nothing to you."

"If I take on this task, I may be suppressed by the Destruction God King afterward. But you are mortals..." The Angel God's gaze fell upon Qian Renxue.

"That Li Qinglian will definitely become a major figure in the God Realm in the future. Qian Renxue, you must treat him seriously. It would be best if you could become lovers with him."

The Angel God's expression was grave.

In her view, that child was an illegitimate son the Goddess of Life had somehow produced.

Even if Li Qinglian did not become a God King in the future, he would still become a top-tier First-Level God. If the Angel God could become related to the Goddess of Life by marriage, her standing in the God Realm would rise accordingly.

"Ah? Lord Angel, is this also a mission I must complete?"

Qian Renxue's pretty face flushed slightly.

"You can think of it that way. But everything is up to you. You must seize opportunities yourself. The Goddess of Life's status in the God Realm is even higher than you imagine."

"And now, her child is in Spirit Hall. How you seize this opportunity is for you to consider. However, it is not within the scope of my assessment for you. Even if the two of you have no fate together, it will not affect your divine examination."

"You only need to understand one thing to know what to do. In the God Realm, there are only God Kings and everyone else. First-Level Gods, Second-Level Gods, and Third-Level Gods have no say in anything. The Five Supreme Gods control everything..."
