"In my original world, becoming a god meant completely losing one's body, fully merging with the laws of heaven and earth, and becoming a part of the world."
"But in this world, after becoming a god, both body and consciousness transform into a special state and enter another world."
"That world is different from the real world; it has no physical form and is built upon the power of thoughts from countless living beings. The divine seats I mentioned to you before are, in essence, also constructed from the faith of living beings."
"Mortal beings rely on divine seats to enter the divine realm and inherit power far beyond human limits from those divine seats. This is the rule of becoming a god in this world."
"Therefore, the source of power for all the gods in this world lies in the faith born from the myriad worlds."
"And if you want to obtain power capable of contending with the gods, you must start from here as well…"
Lin Xiao did not immediately return to find the Abomination Douluo and Nana. Instead, he walked alone across the snowfield, unaware of exactly how many days had passed.
The surrounding cold brought unusual calm to his heart. Electrolux's words to him continued to surge through his spiritual sea.
In the arrangement of "that god," the best outcome for him would be to become another "Zhongli Wu," stirring up conflict and chaos on the continent and attracting the arrival of the abyssal plane.
Perhaps his name would then remain in the history of the Douluo Continent—as a sinner of the Douluo Continent.
But to resist the arrangement of a god, one must possess power equal to that god.
Lin Xiao had discussed this with Electrolux. For now, he could only try every possible path one by one. The first was to search for possible divine seat inheritances on this continent; the second was to create a new divine seat from nothing.
However, neither path would be easy.
Collecting his thoughts, Lin Xiao looked back behind him. Unknowingly, he had left a long string of footprints on the snowfield that stretched to the edge of his vision.
With a soft sigh, he suddenly rose into the air and leaped upward.
When Lin Xiao returned to the place where he had originally arranged for Nana to stay, he was startled by the scene before him. Only after looking carefully did he confirm that he had not come to the wrong place.
He had thought she would simply find some random shelter among these low mountains to wait for him, yet somehow, in such a short time, several houses had already been built against the mountainside.
Snow fell on the rooftops, blending the houses with the surrounding hills, as if adding a touch of vivid color to the landscape, unexpectedly carrying a certain poetic charm.
Lin Xiao did not conceal his aura. The moment he approached, Nana sensed him.
"Eighth Elder."
"Did you make this?" Lin Xiao glanced at Nana and looked around.
"This was done by Sixth Elder," Nana said, pausing for a moment before looking behind her. Sure enough, she saw the Abomination Douluo flying over as well.
"You two…" Lin Xiao looked at them both. "Have already talked things over."
"Mm." Nana nodded. After spending these days together, she no longer felt the same fear toward the Abomination Douluo as before.
"I saw her living in a cave was too crude. Since we're going to stay here for a long time, I thought I might as well make a simple place to live," the Abomination Douluo's deep voice rang out, carrying a tone Lin Xiao had never heard from him before.
"I left a room for you too. Want to go take a look?"
"Let's go together." Lin Xiao glanced over and walked forward first.
With the strength of a Titled Douluo, building a few houses was indeed not difficult at all. But when Lin Xiao stepped inside the room, he realized that the interior arrangements were far beyond what the Abomination Douluo had casually called "simple." Though not the work of a master craftsman, he clearly had some understanding of these matters.
"How is Sixth Brother's injury?"
"It's completely healed," the Abomination Douluo said, glancing at Nana without mentioning the encounter with Zhang Lexuan that day.
Hearing this, Lin Xiao stared at the two of them for a long while. "So, both of you have decided to stay here with me?"
"Mm. Anyway, I have nowhere else to go," the Abomination Douluo nodded.
Nana was about to speak when Lin Xiao raised his hand to stop her. Then, he slowly lifted the mask from his face.
"Lin… Teacher Lin?" Nana unconsciously cried out in surprise, yet suddenly felt as if she had seen this scene somewhere before.
"I'm very grateful that you didn't tell anyone else about seeing me, so there are some things I won't hide from you anymore." As he spoke, Lin Xiao looked straight at Nana, his gaze unwavering.
Being stared at like this by Lin Xiao, Nana unconsciously blushed, feeling a slight panic in her heart. But before she could look away, the next moment, she saw what seemed to be two points of gray candlelight rising from Lin Xiao's eyes.
A forgotten memory slowly flowed back into her mind.
Eighth Elder, Teacher Lin, the soul awakening ceremony… So she had known the true identity of the Eighth Elder in front of her long ago…
"Back then, to avoid exposing my identity, I took away that part of your memory," Lin Xiao said, watching Nana as she processed the returning memories. "Now, you can think again whether you still want to stay."
"If you want to leave, I can send you to a nearby village."
The Abomination Douluo beside them looked at Lin Xiao, then at Nana, his eyes flickering slightly, though it was unclear what he was thinking.
"I…" Nana seemed to have recalled everything. She lowered her head slightly. "I still want to stay."
"Thank you, Teacher Lin, for returning this memory to me and letting me know how much you've taken care of me."
"My mother's identity and my own martial soul, I never really had any choice. I'm very fortunate that the person I met was Teacher Lin…"
"Even without meeting me, you would still have been very fortunate." Lin Xiao smiled and did not let Nana continue.
"Since both of you have decided to stay by my side, I'll tell you my plans from now on." Lin Xiao's expression grew somewhat serious. "Now that the Holy Spirit Cult no longer exists, I plan to establish a new religion, to give all the Holy Cult disciples who have nowhere to go a new place to belong."
As soon as Lin Xiao finished speaking, both the Abomination Douluo's and Nana's expressions changed slightly. The events that had happened in the Holy Spirit Cult were still fresh in their minds. Could Lin Xiao want to become a second Zhongli Wu?
But soon, they dismissed the thought. If Lin Xiao wanted to become another Zhongli Wu, he wouldn't have just returned Nana's memory.
Even when he first met Nana, he could have continued holding her soul lamp as leverage.
Nana's eyes flickered. Suddenly, she knelt. "Greetings, Cult Leader."
Nana's action even made Lin Xiao pause for a moment. Smiling, he reached out and helped her up.
"Right now, it's just the three of us here. No need for so much formality."
