74: Chapter 74 Second on the Dragon and Tiger List!

"His honesty was not weakness, but a perseverance carved into his very bones; his forbearance was not incompetence, but a responsibility he could not help but bear.

Yet, this perseverance and responsibility ultimately became a joke in the Law-of-the-jungle world of the Douluo Continent.

He burned himself out to fulfill his granddaughter, yet could not secure the continuation of the divine lineage; he spent his life guarding Spirit Hall, only to watch Spirit Hall fall; he kept his promises for a lifetime, endured humiliation for a lifetime, and in the end, did not even have a happy ending.

Qian Daoliu was, in the end, a pitiable man trapped by talent, responsibility, and honesty. He won the awe of the entire continent, but lost his own life, becoming the most lamentable honest Limit Douluo in Douluo history!"

Spirit City, Elder Hall!

Standing beneath the Angel God statue, feeling the influx of invisible power, Qian Daoliu looked on with surprise as the shackle that had held him back for most of his life was pierced through like a thin membrane.

As the last barrier shattered, the realm of the hundred-level Divinity descended with a boom!

Golden light exploded around Qian Daoliu, the six wings on his back transformed into blazing white-gold feathers, his aged body instantly restored to its prime, his white hair dyed with golden radiance, and his nine spirit rings were all sublimated.

A brilliant divine ring appeared around his body, the sacred power purifying heaven and earth as he truly stepped into the God Realm.

"This is... the power of a God!"

Qian Daoliu slowly opened his eyes, golden divine flames dancing within his pupils. With a wave of his hand, he stirred the Laws of heaven and earth, and the Angelic Sacred Sword condensed from the Void Realm. Divine patterns flowed across the blade, and its pressure reached the nine heavens.

From this moment on, he was no longer a Limit Douluo confined to the mortal world, but a hundred-level Angel God.

The name of the invincible in the sky was now crowned with Divinity. Because of him alone, Spirit Hall stood firmly at the pinnacle of the continent, and no one dared to contend with it again.

"It is just a pity that, because of the Heavenly Dao Golden List, the time I can remain 'First' will not last long; I will soon have to yield it to another.

However... having cultivated for a lifetime, being able to Breakthrough is already a stroke of luck; I truly dare not ask for too much!"

According to the original rules, let alone reaching the hundredth level to become a god, for the sake of Qian Renxue, Qian Daoliu would likely have had to burn himself out.

Now that he could reach this step, he was already extremely delighted in his heart.

Since he had already decided to let go of his feelings for Bo Saixi and bless them as a friend, Qian Daoliu naturally would not go to Sea God Island at this moment.

Amidst the surprised gazes of the elders, Qian Daoliu instead sat cross-legged beneath the angel statue and began to slowly adjust his state.

He was just waiting for Qin Yun to appear on the ranking and become a deity; then, Qian Daoliu would go to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to fight him and ask clearly what exactly was going on between him and Qian Renxue!

...

However, unlike the true gentleman Qian Daoliu, ever since breaking through the shackles and becoming a hundred-level god, some people had long been unable to sit still.

A dark green stream of light streaked across the sky, flying directly from the Star Luo Empire towards the Heaven Dou Empire.

Looking at the content on the Heavenly Dao Golden List, Bibi Dong did not stop; instead, she flew even faster.

As the fifth place designated by the Powerhouse Dragon and Tiger Ranking, Bibi Dong was actually the first to become a god.

Although many things had happened in the past, the Heavenly Dao Golden List had already made things very clear.

But! Bibi Dong was still somewhat unwilling to give up.

"The Heaven Mending Pill that can increase Innate Soul Power—once I have obtained that thing, Xiaogang... the grudges between us will all be settled, and I will no longer owe you anything!"

"As for Qin Yun... it would be best if you obediently hand it over. If you don't... I fear that before you even make it onto the ranking to become a god, I will be able to crush you to death in advance!"

She did not know what exactly she owed Yu Xiaogang, but in Bibi Dong's train of thought, she certainly owed Yu Xiaogang.

As for how to make amends, Bibi Dong's answer was to snatch five Heaven Mending Pills and raise Yu Xiaogang's Innate Soul Power to Rank 5.5. In this way, their grudges would be considered settled!

...

[Powerhouse Dragon and Tiger Ranking Second Place, Bo Saixi!]

[Spirit: Sea God!]

[Rank: 99!]

[Power/Affiliation: Sea God Island!]

[Spirit Bone: Full set of Spirit Bones!]

[Domain: Sea God Domain!]

[Super Douluo above Rank 95 may choose Soul Power Rank +1, or a Spirit Bone of a random position compatible with themselves, and all spirit ring age + 3800 years!]

Sea God Island.

Beneath the afterglow of the setting sun, with one arm around Bo Saixi's waist and looking up at the Heavenly Dao Golden List in the sky, Tang Chen, who had just arrived at Sea God Island not long ago, spoke up.

"Xixi, I didn't expect that young man to actually be ranked above you!"

"The waves of the sea push the waves ahead, and the waves ahead die on the beach! Truly, young people are emerging one after another. However, when it comes down to it, he is just a Limit Douluo, perhaps another spokesperson for some deity, or a High Priest.

It is a pity that your body, Brother Chen, has been eroded too severely; it is no longer something that can be repaired by Divine Power, otherwise..."

Thinking of the high-spirited Tang Chen of her youth, Bo Saixi always firmly believed that the young Tang Chen was the uncrowned king among Limit Douluo!

Seeming to remember something, looking at the somewhat listless Tang Chen, Bo Saixi said with surprise.

"Brother Chen, I remember that Yang Wudi of the Qingyun Sect previously refined miraculous Medicinal Pills like the Heaven Mending Pill and the Soul Rising Pill. Do you think they might also be able to refine Medicinal Pills that can replenish a divine body to extend your life?"

!!!

No one wants to die, especially those who hold power and authority!

When he left Slaughter City, Tang Chen had originally resigned himself to his fate, but now, upon learning there was a glimmer of hope, his mind was clearly much more active.

Not to mention fully recovering his body, even if it meant living just one more day, that would be one more day to accompany Bo Saixi, wouldn't it?

"Does he really have that ability?" Tang Chen asked skeptically.

"I am not sure about other factions, but according to my observations, this Qingyun Sect is indeed somewhat uncanny; perhaps they really do have it!"

"Since that is the case, let us make a trip there. Just in case, let us set off now. If he also reaches the hundredth level to become a god, it will inevitably cause some trouble!"

Not everyone is an honest man like Qian Daoliu. Having spent his life in the Jianghu, Tang Chen naturally understood the principle of 'take his life while he is ill'.

Things that cannot be taken on the battlefield, you want to get by talking? That is simply wishful thinking!

Nodding, although Bo Saixi felt in her heart that such a thing was somewhat immoral, for the sake of Tang Chen's body, she still agreed.

"Brother Chen, you know that because I need to guard this place, I cannot leave Sea God Island. Therefore, this trip can only rely on you. After I eliminate the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and completely resolve the crisis on Sea God Island, I will rush to find you as quickly as possible!"

Bo Saixi had once clearly stated that once one married her, one could not leave Sea God Island for a lifetime. As the High Priest appointed by the Sea God, besides her sensitive status which prevented her from easily setting foot on the continent, she needed to guard the Sea God Hall for life to defend against the attacks of marine Demonic Beasts. Therefore, before the problem was solved, Bo Saixi could not accompany Tang Chen.

Fortunately, in the past, when she was at Rank 99, Bo Saixi indeed could not take down the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, an existence that was a half-step away from turning into a Dragon, but now, that was not necessarily the case.

"Good, there is no time to lose; I will set off immediately!"

"If the love between two people lasts, does it really matter if they are together day and night!"

"Brother Chen, no need to say more; I understand you!"
