The Great Thousand World exposed, Douluo hearts of cultivation shattered
Within the heavenly screen.
Qian Renxue's vision blurred, and she found that they had returned to the main hall.
Hun Tiandi leaned back in his chair and gave a push with his hand. The jade tablet containing the cultivation method for the Samsara Scripture slowly floated over to Qian Renxue.
"I've said everything I needed to say."
"As for whether you cultivate this method, the choice is yours."
"If you're unwilling, I have plenty of other methods that can put you on a direct path to becoming a Dou Di."
Qian Renxue did not hesitate much. She solemnly accepted the jade tablet, her voice utterly resolute.
"Master, I've decided. I'll cultivate the Samsara Scripture."
Hun Tiandi nodded, quite satisfied.
"In that case, begin. The jade tablet can impart the technique. Infuse it with Dou Qi, and you'll be able to enter the cultivation technique space and comprehend it yourself."
Now that she knew how, Qian Renxue immediately infused her Dou Qi into the jade tablet.
The next second, the jade tablet suddenly shattered. Its fragments then formed a jade doorway before Qian Renxue, drawing her inside.
In the Douluo World.
The heavenly screen showed Qian Renxue entering the technique transmission space.
Then the view remained outside the space.
[Unnamed Soul Master A: What does this mean? Why won't it let us see what's in the cultivation technique too?]
[Unnamed Soul Master Billion: Exactly! Isn't this heavenly screen a little too stingy?]
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Sword Douluo Chen Xin and Bone Douluo Gu Rong had been planning to take a good look while Qian Renxue was learning the cultivation technique. If the two of them could pick up even a little of the basics, they might gain some insight and break through their bottlenecks.
And this was what they got?
Ning Fengzhi smiled helplessly. "It seems the heavenly screen also understands that techniques aren't to be passed on lightly!"
Chen Xin sighed softly. "But if things continue like this, when Qian Renxue returns to Douluo, the whole world will have to bow at Spirit Hall's feet!"
Gu Rong had a fiery temper. He slapped the mahogany table, bristling with anger. "What virtue or ability does Spirit Hall have to deserve such a heaven-defying opportunity? Why couldn't it have fallen to our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect instead?"
Ning Fengzhi smiled bitterly to himself. All he could do was keep praying that Qian Renxue would remain on the Dou Qi Continent forever, with no chance of returning.
Meanwhile, after seeing what had happened, nearly every faction on the continent secretly sent word to Spirit Hall that they were willing to submit.
The situation was already clear. Spirit Hall was already the strongest faction in the world, with top-tier powerhouses like Pope Bibi Dong and Great Enshrined Qian Daoliu, as well as more than a dozen Titled Douluo under its command.
Add to that someone like Qian Renxue, who was certain to become a great powerhouse in the future, and they could think of no better choice than submitting to Spirit Hall.
Inside Spirit Hall, however, everyone was delighted.
Hearing the complaints of those random bystanders on the heavenly screen, Qian Daoliu felt utterly pleased.
Although they couldn't see the contents of the cultivation technique either, it was enough that Xiao Xue could!
Once Xiao Xue cultivated to the Dou Di realm and returned, they old geezers could enjoy their retirement in peace.
Within the heavenly screen.
Seeing that Qian Renxue had entered the cultivation technique space, Xiao Yan reported to Hun Tiandi.
"Master, ever since I broke through to the Dou Di realm, I've had a rather peculiar feeling, as if something was there in the unseen."
Hun Tiandi's eyelid twitched.
What did he mean?
How many years had it been since he broke through to the Dou Di realm? There hadn't been the slightest stir from the Great Thousand World, yet the moment Xiao Yan broke through, he got a feeling?
Was the chosen one of heaven really so unreasonable?
At that thought, his expression remained unchanged. "Oh? Tell me, what's going on?"
Xiao Yan recalled the feeling and said, "When I first entered the Dou Di realm, I vaguely sensed a trace of something indescribably unusual between heaven and earth."
"Then Junior Sister Qian arrived, and after you said she came from another world, Master, I thought she was the one who brought that unusual feeling."
"But over the past two days, I've still sensed it often. I really don't know what to make of it, so I wanted to ask you, Master."
"My disciple, do you know why all the Dou Di powerhouses on the Dou Qi Continent disappeared?"
Xiao Yan was slightly taken aback, then shook his head. "I don't know."
But he had some suspicions. Only after stepping into the Dou Di realm had he understood just how vast the gap between a Dou Di and a Dou Sheng was.
And a being of that level should not be easy to kill. If that was the case, why had no third living Dou Di been found in this world before his master and him?
Hun Tiandi pondered for a moment, then said to him, "My disciple, Xiao Xue's case should have already shown you that other worlds exist besides the Dou Qi Continent."
"If Xiao Xue could come to the Dou Qi Continent from her world, that naturally means people from the Dou Qi Continent can also go to other worlds."
Xiao Yan immediately understood what his master meant. "So those Dou Di went to a new world."
Hun Tiandi nodded. "More than that, this so-called new world must be stronger than the Dou Qi Continent. In other words, the Dou Di realm is not the end of the cultivation path!"
At those words, Xiao Yan's eyes widened, and stormy waves surged in his heart.
The Dou Di realm wasn't the end of the road either?!
"My disciple, in a sense, there has never been an upper limit to the path of cultivation."
"It's just that most of the time, one is constrained by the limits of what a world can bear, as well as the limits of its resources."
"To seek higher realms, people are bound to try exploring realms they have yet to reach."
"And that feeling you mentioned may be because a passage between the Dou Qi Continent and another world is about to open."
Xiao Yan was shaken to the core. Then he asked curiously:
"Master, you must already know something about that world, right?"
Hun Tiandi nodded. "That world is called the Great Thousand World."
"It's a realm countless times vaster than the Dou Qi Continent."
"In the Great Thousand World, powerhouses are as numerous as clouds."
"Even a Dou Di would be a second-rate powerhouse there at best."
At those words, the Soul Masters on the Douluo Continent felt that everything they knew had been overturned!
A terrifying powerhouse like a Dou Di was only second-rate in the Great Thousand World?
Just how terrifying, then, were the strongest beings in the Great Thousand World?!
In the Worship Hall, Qian Daoliu stared blankly at the heavenly screen.
He felt as though his entire worldview was about to collapse.
Before this, he had believed that gods were the strongest beings in the world.
Then the heavenly screen had appeared and shown him terrifying beings like Dou Di.
Yet in the short span of two days, he had learned of even more terrifying beings from a supreme Dou Di!
Then what about them? What did they amount to?
Ants?
He was not alone. Countless powerhouses across the Douluo Continent were lost in the same bewilderment.
They had spent their entire lives getting where they were today.
Yet in this vast universe, they were no more than a single grain in the boundless sea.
