Yin and Yang Chaos Qi

West Mountain Mingdu, the War God Temple.

The number one war god of the War God Temple, Yi Blazing Sun Douluo, looked at Rong Tianling in front of him with mixed feelings.

Chen Xinjie's sudden defection from the Federation, the Federation's launch of the selection process, and the Master —this series of events caused unrest within the War God Temple, and even this veteran War God felt uneasy.

Fortunately, with time, he gradually accepted these realities.

Although the new temple master has just taken office, her strength is undeniable. Under her leadership, the War God Temple may not be any weaker than when Chen Xinjie was in charge.

But should we call this the Limit seclusion?

This person isn't particularly skilled in other areas besides ability; we need to get to know them better.

Other colleagues are the same; because of the various setbacks they've experienced, they're all too agitated now.

Blazing Sun Douluo remained silent for a moment before speaking, reminding, "Palace Master, the atmosphere of war is strong within the Federation right now, and it's only a matter of time before they launch an operation against the Star Luo Empire and Dou Ling. However, the enemy is not to be underestimated, and the Federation needs time to prepare. In my opinion, war will not break out immediately."

"You have just taken office, and the War God Temple has experienced various changes, so the people's hearts are not yet fully settled. If the Temple Master is not in a hurry, he might as well spend some time sorting out the affairs of the Temple before discussing the matter of advocating war. The voices within can be suppressed for now."

The Federation as a whole supports war, and he naturally shares that attitude.

After all, the fact that the Holy Spirit Cult had connections within Dou Ling and Star Luo Empire, and that they had also become entangled with the Abyss, was enough to make all reasonable people support the war effort.

The time isn't right yet, so there's no need to rush.

Now that Rong Tianling has only recently assumed the position of Hall Master of the War God Temple, he should focus on quickly familiarizing himself with the affairs of the War God Temple War God Temple, rather than putting his energy into supporting the war effort under the influence of the other War Gods.

"Do you think I'm too eager for battle right now?"

Rong Tianling glanced at him. "Do you think I did this because of the other War Gods' opinions?"

Blazing Sun Douluo looked at her with a puzzled expression.

Isn't that so?

Although they had only known each other for a short time, in his eyes, the new temple master was quite composed, except for being somewhat inexperienced, and shouldn't have made any big moves right from the start.

Most likely, it was because the warriors' desire for battle was too intense that it affected her.

But now, listening to what the other party is saying, it seems that's not the case.

"Contrary to your opinion, I did this voluntarily, and the reason is related to my background. I am—"

People born on the Dou Ling Continent.

Seeing Blazing Sun Douluo stunned, Rong Tianling looked in the direction of the Dou Ling Continent with a complicated expression.

"Surprising, isn't it?"

"----That's true, but since you are now a resident of the Douluo Continent, that's enough," Blazing Sun Douluo quickly replied.

He was indeed somewhat surprised that Rong Tianling came from Dou Ling, but that was all he was surprised about.

After all, there are quite a few people from Dou Ling and Star Luo Empire within the Federation, and the Federation doesn't exclude them. Since Rong Tianling was willing to proactively share this information and passed the Federation's identity verification, his identity must be trustworthy.

What Blazing Sun Douluo truly cared about was the reason why Rong Tianling wanted to attack Dou Ling.

As if knowing his thoughts, Rong Tianling continued, "The reason is actually very simple. I just want revenge—and incidentally, to free Dou Ling."

A hundred years ago, her mother discovered traces of the Holy Spirit Cult on the Dou Ling Continent. Terrified, she conceived the idea of fleeing the Dou Ling Continent. However, her mother ultimately failed and could only entrust someone to send her out.

From that moment on, her fate and her mother's became two parallel lines that would never intersect.

Although she occasionally encountered danger, and was even nearly swallowed by Sea Soul Beast, she eventually made it to the vicinity of the Douluo Continent, where she was fortunate enough to meet her adoptive father Rong Lingji, and gradually grew up.

According to Rong Lingji's later investigation, her mother died mysteriously after her failed escape attempt.

Rong Lingji couldn't find out the specifics either, only the person who helped her smuggle herself across the border back then, from whom she learned the inside story about her arrival in the Douluo Continent. Most of the above information came from that smuggler.

As for her biological father—an accomplice of the Holy Spirit Cult —it's best not to mention him.

"I don't know exactly how my mother died." Rong Tianling recounted some of his own experiences, his voice low and somber, "But I know it's most likely related to the Holy Spirit Cult. And I will settle this debt."

Although I was young when I left Dou Ling and didn't have a deep impression of my biological mother, she gave me the opportunity to live a normal life. As her child, I should do something for her.

Previously, they lacked the ability, as the Holy Spirit Cult's influence grew daily, and there were even beings that made Rong Lingji wary.

Now that she has reached the level of Quasi-God and has become the master of the War God Temple, and the Federation also has plans to use troops against Dou Ling, she naturally wants to seize such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

"But you're right, it's been a long time since I've had an opportunity, and I'm getting a little anxious."

Rong Tianling suddenly changed the subject, "Afterwards, I will focus on calming things down internally and waiting for the right opportunity."

Blazing Sun Douluo stopped abruptly as he was about to offer some advice, feeling a sense of relief.

This person is relatively easy to talk to.

The Spirit Pagoda, the Reception Room.

Watching Rong Lingji leave, Snow Empress seemed lost in thought.

"No wonder the new Palace Master is eyeing the Dou Ling Empire; it turns out there's a connection. But isn't that a good thing?"

"That's definitely a good thing."

--

Huo Yuhao nodded, "Although Rong Lingji didn't explain everything, Rong Tianling's identity in the Dou Ling is probably not simple, and it might have unexpected benefits for the strategy of conquering Dou Ling."

Snow Empress nodded slightly and looked at him with a smile.

"You've taken on another role today."

People always like to measure everything by their own standards, and from their perspective, we might arrive at some ridiculous answers.

Huo Yuhao smiled helplessly, "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. The Tribulation Lightning tempering of the Spirit Pagoda is temporarily over. Next, I'm going to place it in the Undead Plane to nurture it, and I'll also go into seclusion there for a while. I'll leave the outside to you."

"Good."

Watching Huo Yuhao head towards the Undead Plane, Snow Empress thought of the "Spirit Pagoda" and her mind was filled with various thoughts.

"After many days of tempering by Heavenly Tribulation, those Godly Alloy have now completed their Heavenly Forging. Would you say Yuhao is Divine Craftsman?"

Thinking of this, Snow Empress chuckled and shook her head.

It's no wonder Rong Lingji guessed that Huo Yuhao was the God of Time, and that the Spirit Pagoda, which had undergone a transformation by borrowing the Power of Faith and the Tribulation Lightning, emitted an aura more terrifying than most of the Divine Tool she had ever seen.

Who wouldn't be confused by this?

It's unknown what it will become after evolving again using the Undead Plane.

While Snow Empress was pondering, Huo Yuhao's figure quietly appeared in the Undead Plane.

Huo Yuhao's figure appeared in this gray and white world, the ground beneath his feet trembling slightly, as if welcoming his arrival.

He looked up and saw that the scene before him was completely different from when he last came.

The sky was no longer a monotonous gray. Strands of pale golden light seeped in from an unknown place, like the dawn's first rays, warming this once desolate world. Clouds churned higher up, and a faint breeze stirred—a sign that the Laws of the plane were beginning to operate autonomously.

The air was filled with an atmosphere of death and rebirth intertwined.

The aura of the undead was still strong, but it was no longer the sole ruler. He could smell the earth, the moisture, and even a faint, almost imperceptible life force, like grass. The undead remains that were quietly rotting in the corners were transforming into the most primordial soil of this plane.

In the distance, the Seven Old Devils were using their Life energy to help Life emerge in the plane, and several dark blue plants peeked out from the cracks in the rocks.

The Undead Plane is gradually becoming a true plane.

Huo Yuhao looked around and nodded secretly.

The progress is good, but if it continues like this, it will still take quite some time.

Perhaps we can accelerate things later by using the power of the Throne of Seal.

"However, there are advantages to going slowly. By nurturing the Spirit Pagoda in the Plane Core now, it can reap the greatest benefits."

With that thought, Huo Yuhao made a move and went directly to the Plane Core the Undead Plane.

This is a chaotic space, without top or bottom, without front or back, where only endless nothingness and abundant energy intertwine.

In the void, strands of Laws auras appeared and disappeared, representing the nascent order of this plane and the support from the greater universe.

A newly formed plane may not have the ability to generate all its own Laws, but it can draw upon the power of the external universe.

The Cosmic Laws support the birth of new planes. As long as a plane exists within the universe, its birth process receives cosmic assistance; this seems to be an instinct, or perhaps it is—

"The will of the Creation God?"

Thinking about the origin of the universe and Life, Huo Yuhao pondered for a moment and then stopped thinking about it.

This is not something he should be thinking about right now.

His gaze shifted from the Laws to other things within the Plane Core.

Besides the outward manifestation of the power of Laws, the most striking feature of this place is the two energies that permeate the entire space.

A pure and light radiance, like the first rays of dawn, emanated a warm and gentle light. It rose slowly, and wherever it passed, the void trembled slightly, as if it were nurturing something new.

Another force, extremely turbid and heavy, like Abyss, exuded a cold and oppressive aura. It slowly descended, solidifying the space in its path, as if laying some kind of foundation.

The two forces are intertwined yet distinct. They trace two completely different trajectories in the void, yet they intertwine, collide, and merge at some mysterious juncture before separating again.

Yin and Yang flowed in harmony, and chaos was first created.

This is the Yin and Yang Chaos Qi.

Legend has it that at most one Yin Yang Chaos Bird can be born in each plane, formed from the residual Yin and Yang Chaos Qi at the beginning of the universe.

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, "Instead of searching for those Yin-Yang Yin Yang Chaos Bird formed from the remnants of Yin and Yang Chaos Qi, it's better to directly create an environment from the beginning of time, and absorb some Yin and Yang Chaos Qi here."

He summoned the Spirit Pagoda, placed it in the Plane Core to nurture it, and then began his own cultivation.

This Laws of nature and possesses various strange energies, making it the best place for cultivation.

Huo Yuhao sat cross-legged in the chaotic void, with nothing beneath him, yet it felt as if he were sitting on flat ground.

The yin and yang energies flowed slowly past his side. The purest and lightest yang energy brushed over his left shoulder, while the most turbid and heavy yin energy sank over his right knee, forming a faint cycle around his body.

The alternation of life and death, the flow of yin and yang, is the most fundamental Laws of the universe.

He was completely immersed in the mysteries of the beginning of time, sensing the flow of Yin and Yang, the condensation of Laws, and the entire process of a world coming into being from nothing.

His aura was gradually rising, breathing and growing together with this emerging plane.

Meanwhile, in the outside world, the moon has set and the sun has risen, and the seasons have changed.

At the Mingdu Divine Consciousness Spirit Pagoda, Tang Wutong stood by the window, gazing at a distant house, her heart filled with conflicting emotions.

"Go see them if you want to. They've all given their permission and aren't restricting you. What are you worrying about?" Gu Ruiqiu beside her, looked at her speechlessly.

You don't understand how I feel.

Tang Wutong Divine Consciousness in her consciousness, "He has his own life now, his girlfriend, and a happy family. What am I to him if I suddenly appear? Rather than letting Wulin know my identity, I think it's fine for him to live like this, knowing nothing."

Ignorance is a kind of happiness.

"Then you can just not tell him." Gu Ruiqiu rolled her eyes.

"He's not stupid, and he has my father's Divine Consciousness by his side. They can tell at a glance that I am Divine Consciousness. Besides, the Federation has my portrait. If they recognize me, they might draw some conclusions from it."

Upon hearing this, Gu Ruiqiu thought about it seriously and felt that there was some truth to it, but she still retorted, "I think that as long as you don't reveal the truth, he'll probably be even more convinced that he's a reincarnation of a god. At most, he might suspect that his previous self had some connection with you—well, maybe he might even suspect that he's your descendant or child, since the names are so similar."

Tang Wutong: "----"

That's not impossible.

"No, that's not right. What about offspring or children? I've never been in a relationship."

Tang Wutong's face darkened, and she grabbed Gu Ruiqiu's shoulder. "I've heard about your great achievements lately, so don't you dare cause me any trouble."

Gu Ruiqiu didn't react at first, but looking at her expression, she gradually realized what was going on.

Recently, Tang Wutong learned about the history of Ten Thousand Years and read some unofficial Unofficial History about the Spirit Pagoda, so she naturally learned about some of the things she had done before.

Tang Wutong is now...

Gu Ruiqiu looked enlightened. "You're worried that she and I will also fabricate Unofficial History about the Butterfly God?"

"That's right, don't let what you said before get out."

Tang Wutong realized she had overreacted, which only made the other person realize what was happening, and their expression turned grim. "Otherwise, even with Di Tian and the others protecting you, I, I—"

After stammering "Me too" for a while, Tang Wutong still couldn't get the rest of her sentence out.

Because she sadly discovered that with Huo Yuhao and the others protecting her, she really couldn't do anything to Gu Ruiqiu.

Seeing this, Gu Ruiqiu smiled and took out her soul-guided camera, snapping a picture of the helpless Tang Wutong.

Tang Wutong was stunned. "What are you doing?!"

"Just to keep as a souvenir." Gu Ruiqiu waved the soul-guided camera in her hand, her eyes crinkling with laughter. "Your helpless expression just now was practically art."

Tang Wutong blushed and reached out to snatch it. Gu Ruiqiu laughed even harder, took two steps back with the camera in hand, and snapped another picture.

"This one is even better than the last one."

Tang Wutong was so angry she couldn't speak. Just as she was about to say something more, another figure suddenly appeared in the room. Seeing the two of them playfully bickering, the figure raised an eyebrow and said, "When did you two become so close?"
