"The hatred of the unchosen?"
Thinking of this, Lin Mo couldn't help but shake his head.
When I was thrown into the Douluo Continent in the form of a fire meteor, theoretically speaking, I could have had two choices.
To put it simply, besides traveling to the present Douluo Continent era, Arceus could also have chosen to leave him in the Peerless Tang Sect era, ten thousand years later.
Fortunately, he was lucky enough to travel to the present era.
Compared to the present time period, the difficulty of development in the era of the Peerless Tang Sect 10,000 years later is like heaven and earth.
During the Peerless Tang Sect era, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the difficulty level was hellish.
The reason is quite simple: what good is exceptional talent? What good is being invincible?
Being watched by people in the sky basically eliminates the possibility of normal development.
At that time, Sea God Tang San, had already become a god for many years and regarded Douluo Continent as his own backyard. His intervention in the lower realm was more direct than it is now.
A gifted and popular individual, standing out in that environment, is almost destined to be targeted.
They either get recruited to be Tang San's lackeys, or they get nipped in the bud; it's one of these two outcomes.
However... neither outcome was what Lin Mo wanted.
Thinking of this, Lin Mo couldn't help but speak up.
Now that his strength has reached a new peak, he can be said to have the right to make a new choice.
That fate of not being chosen did not simply vanish.
Furthermore, having recently been blessed by the power of the Plate from Arceus, he now has the right to make a new choice.
In layman's terms, it means he can now actively travel back to the era of the Peerless Tang Sect: The Peerless Tang Sect.
However, it's not always possible.
If he chooses to ascend to the Divine Realm step by step, then this option, which he had always ignored from the beginning, will completely disappear.
But just thinking about this made Lin Mo unable to help but laugh again.
The idea of transmigrating to the era of the Peerless Tang Sect: The Peerless Tang Sect as a child and painstakingly developing one's abilities is entirely different from transmigrating with one's current strength and crushing everything in one's path.
The former must be constantly on edge, proceeding cautiously at every step, for the slightest misstep could lead to utter ruin.
The latter, I remain unmoved, and whoever comes will be slapped away.
He wondered how Tang San, who Dual Godhood of Sea God and Asura God ten thousand years in the future, would react upon seeing another Asura God who had suddenly appeared on the Douluo Continent.
Real or fake Asura God?
Real or fake Sea God?
Tang San's expression at that moment will surely be quite a sight, won't it?
When Lin Mo finished his seclusion and pushed open the door to the secret chamber, he saw Dugu Yan and her group who had been waiting for him for a long time.
Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, and Snow Empress all looked worried, as did the mermaid sisters standing to the side.
Because a powerful and unfamiliar force suddenly erupted from the previously stable secret room not long ago.
They had considered rushing in to check on Lin Mo, but the secret chamber was locked by that force, and they couldn't break it with their strength.
They even tried to break through the barrier together, but all their Smack Down were like throwing mud into the sea, having no effect whatsoever.
Seeing Lin Mo emerge from his cultivation, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Dugu Yan was the first to greet him, her emerald eyes filled with concern. " A-Mo, are you alright?"
What was that noise just now?
"It's nothing, the cultivation is over." Lin Mo waved his hand with a smile.
"This retreat went very smoothly, and the Harvest far exceeded my expectations."
The Harvest from this retreat far exceeded his initial expectations.
Before going into seclusion, his original plan was simply to successfully condense his Third Soul Core and stabilize his cultivation at the level of Limit Douluo, which Level 99.
But who would have thought that I would receive the Pokédex and the power of the Plate?
After circling Lin Mo a few times, Dugu Yan looked him up and down, even touching him incessantly.
Before Lin Mo could get completely confused, Dugu Yan finally spoke up and asked the question that had been bothering her, " A-Mo, have you secretly become a god?"
As soon as he said that, the eyes of the others present also turned to him.
Upon hearing this, Lin Mo was completely stunned, not understanding why she would have such a thought.
He shook his head, then reached out and pinched Dugu Yan's cheek, asking with a puzzled look:
"What do you mean by becoming a god? I haven't become a god yet. I'm still just an ordinary Titled Douluo."
"Then what...?"
"At this point, Dugu Yan paused, carefully considering her words: "How come, in my current perception, both your aura and that little Charizard's aura are no different from ordinary people?"
I can't sense any powerful Soul Power fluctuations emanating from you at all.
She had already broken through to Level 97. Logically speaking, even if Lin Mo was Level 99 Peerless Douluo, he shouldn't be in a situation where he couldn't sense the other party's aura at all.
At this point, Ye Lingling nodded in agreement. "There are only two reasons why this might happen."
First, A-Mo, what went wrong with your previous cultivation that turned you into an ordinary person? Second, your strength has become qualitatively different from ours, reaching the God Level.
"A-Mo, it's possible that your cultivation will encounter problems, but it's highly unlikely that you'll become an ordinary person."
"What is all this nonsense?" Lin Mo scratched his head, looking both amused and exasperated.
Soon, amidst the expectant gazes of others, he completed the Martial Soul Possession once again.
The magnificent Scarlet Phoenix Wings emerged from her body, their beautiful red wings unfurling in the light outside the secret chamber.
Whether it was her imagination or not, Dugu Yan felt that the Scarlet Phoenix Wings on Lin Mo's back were very different from before, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what the difference was.
However, when Dugu Yan clearly saw the Soul Ring Configuration —six red, two gold, and one red—under Lin Mo's feet, she finally sensed the abnormality in Lin Mo.
gold.
Now, not only Lin Mo's two golden God-Level Soul Ring, but also the other seven red Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, all have a layer of golden halo on their surface, making them look exceptionally sacred.
The reason why the Scarlet Phoenix Wings gave her that strange feeling was because of this.
A layer of golden luster covered his entire body, and even his form, which was Martial Soul Possession, was imbued with a sacred aura.
"Nine Soul Ring are indeed still within the scope of Titled Douluo."
Snow Empress nodded, and subconsciously stretched out her slender, jade-like hand. Her pale, cool fingers slid down Lin Mo's chest to his lower abdomen, muttering incantations.
"But his aura seems to be vastly different from that of Titled Douluo."
Snow Empress's fingertips were icy cold, and Lin Mo could feel the chill even through her clothes.
Lin Mo slapped away Snow Empress's mischievous hand and glared at her.
This person is getting bolder and bolder.
Lin Mo: "As I said, I Harvest a lot from this seclusion. I successfully completed the goal of this seclusion: to condense the Third Soul Core of the Mental Attribute."
"Perhaps it's because my spiritual power, like my Soul Power and physical body, has broken through and reached the God Level realm that you have this feeling?"
He expressionlessly shifted the blame onto the Spiritual Soul Core.
Dugu Yan's feeling was correct; his strength had indeed made a qualitative leap compared to before.
In short, the Harvest from this seclusion were no less than the boost he received from absorbing the six God-Given Soul Ring simultaneously.
As for the nine Soul Ring of his own Body Martial Soul?
Compared to before, the power of these nine Soul Ring has indeed undergone some minor changes.
Under the baptism of that Plate's power, his Body Martial Soul's nine Soul Ring can now utilize additional powers besides their original attributes.
For example, he could use the power of his Eighth Soul Ring, a blood ( Fighting type ) attribute Soul Ring, to create Aura Sphere by hand, just like Ash.
"Really?" Dugu Yan stared at Lin Mo with a suspicious look.
Lin Mo maintained his calm expression, revealing no flaw whatsoever.
"It feels like you're trying to fool us again."
"How could that be? I never lie." Lin Mo shook his head.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."
Ye Lingling smiled and gently changed the subject:
" A-Mo, now that you and Yanzi have successfully achieved your goals for coming to the ocean, shouldn't we head back now?"
She glanced around at her surroundings, then looked at the deep blue sea in the distance.
They've been in this underwater palace long enough.
"It's time to go back." Lin Mo stretched.
All objectives of this trip to the ocean have been successfully achieved.
Dugu Yan successfully accepted the Sacrifice of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, absorbing its Soul Ring and Soul Bone, thus fulfilling all the prerequisites for the Eighth Trial.
He also obtained the Ninth Soul Ring he wanted, the Head Soul Bone with the Mental Attribute, and the unexpected bonus of the Plate's power.
Thinking of this, Lin Mo couldn't help but look at his two wives beside him. "Alright, let's go straight back to Heaven Dou City this time."
I'll also go back and let my grandpa and teachers know I'm safe.
"Yay, we're finally back!"
Dugu Yan clapped her hands excitedly, her emerald eyes sparkling. "Even the most delicious seafood gets boring after a month of eating it!"
Even the most delicious food can become tiresome if eaten every day.
Especially seafood, no matter how many different ways you prepare it, you can never get rid of that fishy smell.
The Charizard beside him blew out two puffs of snuff, nodded its head, and looked on with a knowing expression.
Seeing this, Lin Mo shook his head helplessly.
Immediately, as the Seventh Soul Ring lit up, a silver light with spatial attributes enveloped Lin Mo and his group.
A silver light rose from beneath their feet, enveloping their figures.
The light carried a strong spatial fluctuation, causing even the surrounding air to distort.
bite!
A bright flash of silver light appeared, and before the shocked eyes of the Lijing and Li Ya sisters, Lin Mo and his group had vanished.
The two women looked at each other in bewilderment.
Ultra-long-distance spatial teleportation!
In the backyard of the Dugu Manor in the Heaven Dou Empire.
Feeling a strong sense of dizziness emanating from the depths of her mind, Dugu Yan subconsciously wanted to gag twice to relieve the discomfort in her body.
But the thought of maintaining her ladylike image made her hold back.
She held onto Lin Mo's shoulders, took a deep breath, and Sheer Force suppressed the surging feeling.
His face looked like it was covered in sour grapes.
Ye Lingling, standing to the side, was in no better condition than Dugu Yan; her situation was only slightly better.
Only the Snow Empress, who had already condensed Yin-Yang Complementary Dual Soul Cores and also mastered the power of space, seemed to be in slightly better condition.
" A-Mo, this spatial teleportation is indeed very useful, but don't use it again next time." Finally coming to her senses, Dugu Yan glared fiercely at Lin Mo with red eyes.
She really didn't want to experience that feeling of her Five Viscera and Six Bowels being twisted into a knot again.
Lin Mo feigned innocence. "I didn't know this would happen. I've teleported myself and Charizard before, and nothing like this has ever happened."
"You are you, and we are us. People's constitutions are different. How can we compare to a freak like you?" Dugu Yan patted her chest, looking speechless.
"Let's just have Charizard bring us back next time; it won't make a difference if it takes a little more time."
"Next time for sure," Lin Mo said with a smile, his nonchalant demeanor making Dugu Yan want to pinch him on the waist.
After sitting for a long time and drinking some refreshing beverages, Ye Lingling finally recovered and looked at Lin Mo: " A-Mo, what are you planning to do next?"
Are you ready to pass the final test left to you by the Asura God, inherit his Godhood, become the next Asura God, and ascend to the Divine Realm?
Ye Lingling voiced the question that had been nagging at her, "Or should we try to find the Torso Soul Bone that you're currently missing?"
In her view, Lin Mo's dual Martial Soul cultivation has now reached the Limit Douluo realm of Level 99, and both he and the Charizard have their three Soul Core complete.
The only thing lacking in my cultivation now is a Torso Soul Bone.
Apart from the Spirit Hall Empire under Bibi Dong's rule, Lin Mo had already collected all the remaining Power of Faith on the continent that could be harvested.
She really couldn't think of what else Lin Mo could do next; he couldn't just stay at home and continue his lewd behavior with them forever.
Thinking of this, a blush appeared on Ye Lingling's face, as if she were looking forward to something.
It seems... it's time for A-Mo and me to have a child.
"What are you thinking about?" Lin Mo flicked his finger and gently tapped Ye Lingling's head, pulling her back from her reverie, then pointed to the sky.
"It reached the ears of Heaven."
I'll try to go up there next. Some things are too difficult to solve on the mainland; it's better to go up and ask."
Upon hearing Lin Mo's words, a look of doubt appeared on the faces of the three women present.
Go up? Go where?
Lin Mo smiled, still keeping everyone in suspense.
The Divine Realm.
His next plan was to find a way to sneak into the Divine Realm and go ask that old guy, the Asura God, some questions.
