"Where is the hundred-thousand-year transformed soul beast? Have you not caught it yet?"
Just as Qianjun Douluo and Demon Subduing Douluo prepared to examine Yu Xiaogang's physical makeup, a streak of golden light appeared.
Qian Daoliu stood suspended in midair, his formidable aura unmasked as he looked toward the direction of Zi Tian Palace.
"Great Enshrined, the hundred-thousand-year transformed soul beast has been confirmed to be inside Zi Tian Palace, but the moment I got close earlier, I felt a threat of death."
Seeing Qian Daoliu arrive, Qianjun Douluo hurried to step forward and began to describe the sensation he encountered when approaching Zi Tian Palace.
"God level?"
To make a rank-96 Super Douluo not even dare to get close, this Zi Tian Palace truly possessed some tricks.
After listening to Qianjun Douluo's account, Qian Daoliu glanced down at Yu Xiaogang on the ground and asked casually:
"What is this again?"
"Great Enshrined, he was holding the Pope Token issued by Bibi Dong earlier, demanding that we capture the hundred-thousand-year transformed soul beast and hand it over to him.
Judging by his appearance, his mental state might not be quite normal."
"Put Bibi Dong's matters aside for now; deities have ascended in both the Clear Sky Sect and Sea God Island, and the three major factions will be reshuffled.
The two of you return to Spirit Hall immediately, inform Golden Crocodile of this matter, and make preparations.
The top two rankings on the Background Ranking haven't been announced yet, but the rewards will undoubtedly be even more astonishing.
The future Douluo Realm is likely to undergo massive changes."
Hearing Qian Daoliu's command, the two great enshrined Qianjun and Jiangmo both felt a chill in their hearts.
They had both seen the Background Ranking and rewards announced on the Sky Screen, and both knew about Bo Saixi and Qian Daoliu becoming gods.
However, when had a deity appeared in the Clear Sky Sect?
The relationship between Spirit Hall and the Clear Sky Sect, even if not that of sworn enemies, was not far off.
For the Clear Sky Sect to be powerful would inevitably impact Spirit Hall's strength.
What was more, there was now an extra Sea God Island; Qianjun and Jiangmo felt a heavy burden instantly added to their shoulders.
Daring not to delay in the slightest, and after casually kicking Yu Xiaogang once more, Qianjun Douluo and Demon Subduing Douluo hurried toward Spirit Hall.
"Zi Tian Palace..."
Seeing Qian Daoliu arrive, several nearby Titled Douluos had long since bolted far away.
Before Qian Daoliu broke through, beating the few of them was merely a matter of convenience.
Now that he had broken through, the several men were frantically praying in their hearts, hoping Qian Daoliu wouldn't set his sights on them.
Glancing sideways at the far-flung Titled Douluos, Qian Daoliu did not pursue them.
The most important thing right now was still to bring back Qian Renxue.
As long as Qian Renxue was allowed to inherit the Angel God Trial, he himself could choose the First-Level Godhood from the Sky Screen rewards and thoroughly break through.
Yet just as he flew near Zi Tian Palace, Qian Daoliu felt a chill throughout his entire body, as if he had already been targeted by a ferocious beast.
He swept his divine sense around the surroundings, yet found not the slightest trace.
"Is this the strongest expert of the Douluo Realm? Truly some tricks.
Clearly he hasn't inherited godhood yet, but he has already broken through level 100."
Some deities watched Qian Daoliu standing in place, somewhat astonished.
Without inheriting godhood, one lacked the status of a deity, and naturally could not see the deities concealed within the void.
Moreover, without the blessing of a deity's status, breaking through level 100 was exceedingly difficult.
Hearing the exchange of the deities outside, Zi Tian's gaze flickered.
The reward of the Soul Power Limit Break was written clearly on the Sky Screen after all.
Yet judging by the meaning of these deities, they seemed unable to see the Sky Screen.
Therefore, the deities likewise did not know that Qian Daoliu's limit break was a reward from the Sky Screen, instead assuming that Qian Daoliu had cultivated it himself.
"After all, he is the strongest expert of a lower realm. Breaking through to the hundredth rank without godhood is rare, but not entirely nonexistent.
Compared to the young master's talent, it is still far too inferior."
The deities actually knew nothing of Zi Tian's true cultivation level at present.
Yet the martial soul he awakened was a dual God-King-Level Martial Soul.
There were only five God-King-Level Martial Souls even in the current Divine Realm.
And among the countless lower realms ruled by the Divine Realm, not a single one could be found.
Possessing one God-King-Level Martial Soul already gave one the potential to become a god king.
Yet Zi Tian possessed two such terrifying martial souls.
Not to mention the extremely terrifying cultivation speed and actual combat prowess he had displayed since childhood.
One must know that among Zi Tian's followers, aside from those who were originally followers of the God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life,
there were quite a few deities who were subdued only after fighting him in personal combat.
Moreover, the deities who followed Zi Tian earliest knew a secret.
To this day, Zi Tian did not possess a godhood.
It wasn't that Zi Tian was unable to inherit one, but rather that the godhoods of the God of Destruction, the Goddess of Life, and Asura God had all been rejected by him!
"No need to stop him, let him in."
Hearing the voice ring beside their ears, the multitude of deities in the void quickly dissipated the pressure targeting Qian Daoliu, preparing to watch Zi Tian make a move.
As Zi Tian spoke, he had already lifted the divine sense blockade over Zi Tian Palace.
Qian Daoliu searched for a long time in midair, discovering nothing.
However, as he took a step back, the chill on his body vanished instantly without a trace.
When Qian Daoliu swept his divine sense toward Zi Tian Palace once more, he found that he could already sense the aura of the soul master inside.
Pondering slightly, Qian Daoliu still chose to follow Qianjun Douluo's account, landing on the ground and walking up to the doors of Zi Tian Palace.
Sure enough, all along this path, he no longer felt that bone-chilling cold.
Gently pushing open the large doors, Qian Daoliu saw at a glance the handsome youth seated upon the throne.
As for that hundred-thousand-year transformed soul beast, it looked at him with a vigilant expression and moved a bit to the side.
On the other side, Qian Renxue was looking toward the Sky Screen, seemingly pondering something.
Seeing Qian Daoliu appear, Qian Renxue hurried running over.
"Grandfather, you've become a god!"
Looking at his granddaughter, a trace of a smile inevitably surfaced on Qian Daoliu's face.
In front of others, he was the dignified and terrifying Great Enshrined of Spirit Hall, but toward Qian Renxue, Qian Daoliu could be described as doting on her in every possible way.
"Indeed, grandfather has come to take you back to Spirit Hall. It seems you've been living quite well here."
Before entering Zi Tian Palace, Qian Daoliu had imagined what it would be like to see Qian Renxue.
Given Qian Renxue's status, although her life wouldn't be in danger, she would very likely be subjected to threats.
A mysterious faction like Zi Tian Palace was very likely to use her in exchange for compensation from Spirit Hall.
Yet what Qian Daoliu did not expect was that Qian Renxue was living well here; not only had her aura not weakened in the slightest, but it had grown considerably stronger instead.
Moreover, judging from her state, she hadn't suffered any grievances either.
His heart had originally been weighed down by various matters, but the moment he saw Qian Renxue, Qian Daoliu finally felt a breath of relief.
"Many thanks to Palace Master Zi Tian for looking after Qian Renxue. If there is any way my Spirit Hall can be of help, please feel free to speak."
Thinking of the chill that had appeared on his body when approaching Zi Tian Palace, Qian Daoliu couldn't help but soften his attitude.
Bringing Qian Renxue back now to inherit the Angel God Trial was the primary matter.
Coupled with the pressure Spirit Hall currently faced from the Clear Sky Sect and Sea God Island, Qian Daoliu did not plan to invite extra trouble.
If he could take this opportunity to pull Zi Tian Palace into Spirit Hall's camp, that would be better still.
