Seeing Xiao Tian so determined and resolute, Poseidon merely smiled faintly, feeling it truly didn't matter. After all, she harbored no ill will towards Xiao Tian and the others.
The Sea God and Asura God had already shown goodwill, so what else could she do?
However, having come to the Continent with such difficulty this time, she truly didn't want to return to Sea God Island so quickly.
Thus, she looked at Xiao Tian and said, "Then, may I stay in your Sect for a few days? It's truly rare to come to the Continent, and the current situation on the Continent seems a bit tense. I'd really like to observe it carefully."
Xiao Tian waved his hand casually and said, "Suit yourself, as long as you firmly remember what you just said. The Clear Sky Sect people must perish. I hope you won't regret it later."
Poseidon pondered for a moment and said, "How about this: when you return to the Clear Sky Sect, I'll go with you? It can be considered a farewell to the past."
Xiao Tian was not interested in Poseidon's thoughts. He walked straight out of the reception hall, leaving only one sentence: "Whatever, we leave tomorrow."
Indeed, Xiao Tian had originally planned to go to the Polar North Land tomorrow, but after thinking about it carefully, since the Sea God and Asura God had already shown their stance, he might as well go to the Clear Sky Sect first.
Anyway, with his speed, it wouldn't take much time.
"Ding, bounty quest issued."
"Quest 1: Annihilate the Clear Sky Sect, kill Tang San, Tang Chen, Tang Hao, and all other direct descendants of the Clear Sky Sect, excluding the old, weak, women, and children. Reward: One million points."
"Quest 2: Subdue Ice Empress and Snow Empress, two of the three Heavenly Kings of the Polar North Land. Reward: Movement Word Secret."
"Quest 3: Avenge all grievances, kill Bibi Dong. Reward: Rakshasa Godhead."
Xiao Tian couldn't help but think to himself: "This system, no way, it's issuing so many quests at once."
The rewards for the first two quests were quite good. As for the third one, killing Bibi Dong, to be honest, he was indeed a bit tempted.
After all, Bibi Dong had shown malice towards him, so she was already on his kill list.
As for re-enacting the 'Secret Chamber Douluo' like some people and treating Bibi Dong as a tool for release, he was not that perverted.
He had several cherished women by his side; they deeply loved him, and he deeply loved them in return.
There was really no need to force a relationship with anyone.
Without emotional connection, even if it might feel stimulating during the act, afterwards, it would only leave one feeling incredibly empty.
Besides, wasn't Qian Renxue more appealing?
Why would he shamelessly pursue Bibi Dong?
Might as well kill her. Anyway, if the Spirit Empire lost Bibi Dong, there was still Qian Renxue.
His Sect cooperating with Qian Renxue was a very good choice.
Qian Renxue herself was the legitimate successor of the Angel God; the empress of the Spirit Empire should have been her in the first place.
Moreover, with Qian Renxue's ability, she would definitely be able to manage the Continent in an orderly manner.
After all, when she disguised herself as Crown PrinceXue Qinghe, she had no blemishes in her political achievements. From this point alone, her attitude was very good.
And his Sect, naturally, would be independent of these forces.
Although he also had the ability to unify the Continent, he didn't want to manage anything on the Continent.
He'd rather spend that time cultivating feelings with his wives.
After everything was over, he would hold a grand wedding for them!
Xiao Tian couldn't help but smile as he thought of this.
At that time, they would only need to fully enjoy group activities behind the scenes, raise children, play with children, and explore Douluo Star.
Once they got tired of Douluo Star, his children should have grown up by then.
As long as he left a trace of his divine force in the Sect, he could then take his beloved ones to other planes to travel.
How pleasant would that be?
...
After leaving the reception hall, Xiao Tian gave some instructions to Old freak and Xiao Wu, then directly entered the Spirit Time House.
After he went in, Poseidon slowly walked out, only to find that Xiao Tian had already vanished.
She looked at Dugu Bo and asked, "Where's your Sect Master?"
Dugu Bo replied calmly, "Little freak went to cultivate. He has already instructed me that you can freely visit and move around the Sect for the next two days, except for the forbidden area.
Tomorrow, he will take you to the Clear Sky Sect."
Although Poseidon had some doubts, she still nodded slightly.
Xiao Wu and the others then took her on a tour around the Sect and, at Poseidon's request, told her about the events that had occurred on the Continent during this period.
One day later.
When Xiao Tian emerged from seclusion, his cultivation had risen from level 71 to level 79.
Although only one day had passed in the outside world, two years had passed in the Spirit Time House.
During these two years, Xiao Tian successfully condensed both the spirit power Soul Core and the Sword Intent Soul Core.
After all, his current strength already far exceeded that of a Titled Douluo, and the condensation of the two Soul Cores directly increased his spirit power by four levels.
When Xiao Tian came out, he saw Dugu Bo and other high-ranking officials already waiting outside.
Although they couldn't sense how much Xiao Tian's strength had increased, they knew without a doubt that their Sect Master was invincible!
"Sect Master, when will you depart for the Clear Sky Sect? The disciples of the four halls of the Sect are all ready.
Once you give the command, we will immediately head to the Clear Sky Sect!" Niu Gao, who was at the forefront, said.
Xiao Tian looked at the ready-to-depart group for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "You all stay and guard the Sect.
Poseidon and I will go. Those Titled Douluo of the Clear Sky Sect aren't even enough for one sword strike from me. As for the others, they'll probably be gone if they're affected by my Sword Intent. You might get accidentally injured if you go."
"And most importantly, after visiting the Clear Sky Sect, I will go to the Polar North Land. Too many of you would be inconvenient.
You should know my speed; I can effectively shorten space. It's more convenient for me to go alone."
Upon hearing this, although they were somewhat disappointed that they couldn't help, they could only agree.
"Then Sect Master, please be careful. We will all be waiting for your return at the Sect!" they said with serious expressions.
Although they didn't believe anyone on the Continent could be Xiao Tian's opponent now, they still worried as they should.
Subsequently, Xiao Tian nodded slightly to Poseidon, and without her being able to resist, Poseidon felt a force lift her up, and in an instant, the two disappeared from their original spot.
Poseidon was also shocked by Xiao Tian's method. Their speed of movement was clearly not fast, but the surrounding scenery was disappearing from their sight at an extremely rapid pace.
Then she had some doubts: "Xiao Tian, your speed is so fast, why did you say just now that you couldn't do it?"
Xiao Tian said speechlessly, "You wouldn't think I can take so many people at once with this ability, would you? Given the distance from Shu Mountain to the Clear Sky Sect, it's already good if I can take a few at once.
I still need to conserve spirit power for battle. I have no intention of needing to recover spirit power once I reach the Clear Sky Sect. It'll be a quick battle!"
Poseidon: ...
This time, after the Clear Sky Sect emerged, it moved its Sect near Star Luo City instead of within the Heaven Dou Empire, so he needed to cross Two Great Empires.
The faster he folded space, the faster the two of them would reach Star Luo City, but correspondingly, the faster his spirit power would be consumed.
At this moment, he had already activated his first and second Spirit Abilities, increasing his spirit power and spirit power recovery speed.
He wanted to reach the Clear Sky Sect within half a day or even less time.
And on the way, Xiao Tian thought, since the Clear Sky Sect is now near Star Luo City, why not just go to the Star Luo Imperial Palace as well and directly eliminate the royal family?
This way, the Star Luo Empire would fall into internal strife instead of attacking his Shu Mountain.
Anyway, it was a convenient thing to do. He also didn't want his Sect to be besieged by the Two Great Empires or even the Spirit Empire during his absence.
Now he could lighten the burden on the Sect.
And to Poseidon's surprise, they crossed the Two Great Empires in less than two hours.
Relying on the Clear Sky Sect's new address provided by Bai He, the two of them had already arrived at the Clear Sky Sect's mountain gate.
Inside the Clear Sky Sect.
Tang Chen was teaching Tang San the Clear Sky Secret Technique, while Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and others were also in the Clear Sky Sect, receiving guidance and cultivation from corresponding Spirit Masters.
Yu Xiaogang watched Tang San cultivate from the side, a smile on his face, full of satisfaction.
He was about to mentor a Divinity!
He had heard Tang Chen explain that the Divinities in the God Realm also had grade divisions, and the Asura God Position that Tang San would inherit in the future was the strongest God King in terms of individual combat power in the God Realm.
There were five God Kings in the God Realm: Destruction, Life, Goodness, Evil, and finally, the Asura God.
This work is compiled and uploaded by Taiwan Novel Website~~
Among them, Goodness and Evil were the original two God Kings, while Destruction, Life, and Asura God were the three great enforcers of the God Realm, whose cultivation was later elevated to the God King realm.
And the Asura God was the strongest among these five God Kings.
This was what Tang Chen said. Although Yu Xiaogang was a bit curious how Tang Chen knew so much about the God Realm, could it be that the Asura God told him?
Yu Xiaogang guessed correctly. After the Asura God resurrected Tang Chen, he indeed told him about the status of the Asura God Position in the God Realm and his own strength in the God Realm.
The Asura God only mentioned that there were only five God Kings of his level in the God Realm, and he was the strongest among them.
As for Tang Hao, during this time, with the treatment from the healing Spirit Masters within the Sect, he had mostly recovered.
However, the Ring Explosion last time damaged his foundation, so his current cultivation speed was no longer as fast as before.
Suddenly, Tang Chen, who was guiding Tang San's cultivation, was the first to sense uninvited guests.
And in his perception, there was one demigod, and the other he couldn't sense, which made his expression very grim.
It wasn't because of the demigod, but the other one!
With his current strength, he couldn't immediately sense the specific strength of that person, which meant there was only one possibility: that person's strength was stronger than his!
So, their aura was so contained that he couldn't sense it.
As for being weaker than him?
That was completely impossible!
If they were weaker than him, he would sense their strength in an instant, unless they had some treasure that could conceal their aura, and the level of this treasure would have to be at least divine-grade.
But how could a person with weak divine force possess such a treasure?
Tang Chen's change in expression was also seen by Tang San and Tang Hao.
Tang San put away his Clear Sky Hammer, frowned and said, "Great-grandfather, what's wrong?"
The moment Tang San spoke, he also knew what was happening.
A powerful spirit power fluctuation swept over, and judging by Tang Chen's expression, the newcomers were very strong!
"Let's go, let's go out and see!" Tang Chen's face was not very good, and at the same time, he was a little curious as to who those two people were.
The aura of that demigod powerhouse seemed a bit familiar.
Tang Chen led Tang San, Tang Hao, and others hurriedly to the mountain gate, only to see Xiao Tian and Poseidon standing quietly there.
Tang Chen's gaze was fixed on Xiao Tian, trying to discern something from him, but Xiao Tian's expression was cold, and his deep eyes held an elusive aura.
This familiar aura of a demigod-level powerhouse was none other than Poseidon, whom he hadn't seen in many years!
And beside her was Xiao Tian!
It had only been a little over a month since he left Spirit City last time.
At that time, he could still see through his strength, but now Xiao Tian seemed to be shrouded in a mist; he couldn't sense anything.
"Poseidon, why are you here?" The moment Tang Chen saw Poseidon, his thoughts immediately went back decades ago, when he and Qian Daoliu were about to leave Sea God Island and wanted Poseidon to make a choice.
And Poseidon said that whoever, between him and Qian Daoliu, obtained a Divinity inheritance, she would choose that person.
Actually, he understood this hint. Poseidon implicitly rejected Qian Daoliu.
Because Qian Daoliu, as the High Priest of the Angel God, could never become a God in his lifetime, so Poseidon chose him, just giving Qian Daoliu a dignified way out.
The three of them were all in their seventies or eighties at the time. Qian Daoliu naturally also understood the hint in Poseidon's words.
(Among the three, Tang Chen should be the oldest, decades older than the other two, after all, he was a great-grandfather figure, while Qian Daoliu and Poseidon were similar in age.)
Although Qian Daoliu felt a bit lonely, there was nothing he could do.
A powerhouse of Poseidon's level wasn't something that could be obtained by relentlessly pursuing her. Since he couldn't get her, he shouldn't force it.
He just didn't expect that he would lose to Tang Chen.
Yes, Tang Chen's talent was very strong, reaching super Douluo by himself, but he was older than him and Poseidon, and by decades!
When the three of them met, he and Poseidon were both in their seventies or eighties, but Tang Chen was already over a hundred.
(Since Tang Chen reached super Douluo without undergoing any trials, his cultivation time must have been longer than Qian Daoliu and Poseidon's. It's impossible for him to be only ten or twenty years younger, as Qian Daoliu and Poseidon's talents weren't much weaker than Tang Chen's.)
Poseidon looked at Tang Chen, whom she hadn't seen in many years, with a hint of complexity in her eyes: "I've come to say goodbye to you."
Tang Chen's body trembled slightly upon hearing this. He glanced at Xiao Tian beside her, as if understanding something, and said with some disbelief, "I, I was planning to go to Sea God Island to find you after dealing with the matters on the Continent..."
