Douluo's main body is respected

Chapter 343 Seven Emotions and Six Desires
At this moment, Yang Xiong is undergoing the test of the Thunder God's inheritance, but if someone were to look closely at Yang Xiong's situation, they would know that something is very wrong with him.

At this moment, Yang Xiong's body was in an extremely special state. His entire mind and soul seemed to be detached from his body. Every soul bone in his body seemed to be peeling away, and each soul bone was flashing with blood-red lightning, as if it were being endlessly polished by lightning.

However, Yang Xiong's body was in an extremely strange state, half of it was blood red and the other half was covered with lightning, as if two forces were beginning to contend for power.

In particular, the lightning, which lacked sufficient blood, began to spread throughout Yang Xiong's entire body, like a maggot clinging to a bone, gradually invading every part of Yang Xiong's body.

Yang Xiong's two eyes were in completely different states. One was relatively peaceful, although it was full of fierce aura, and its killing intent was like that of a demon.

The other eye, however, appeared incredibly crazed, filled with endless desire and a sense of resentment towards its fate.

In the sky was a huge phantom of a thunderous unicorn, which gradually began to merge into Yang Xiong's body, its eyes revealing endless longing.

"For hundreds of thousands of years, I have finally succeeded. As long as I take over Yang Xiong's body and completely possess him, the whole world will be in my hands, and I may even reach the level of the Dragon God."

"Yang Xiong, everything you own from now on is mine—your body, all your opportunities, even your women. I will treat them all well!"

Even though Yang Xiong showed a trace of pain, Lei Qilin didn't care at all. His eyes seemed to be filled with endless hope, as if he had seen a bright future. His bloodlust and ambition were on full display, completely unlike what a god should be like.

The Asura Demon Sword in Yang Xiong's hand seemed to be trembling, but the huge Thor's Hammer seemed to be flashing with endless lightning, as if it was full of infinite destructive power, suppressing the entire space.

……

In the realm of gods, the Asura God and the Sea God stared intently at the enormous light screen, their expressions becoming extremely solemn.

Poseidon's face showed a hint of pity: "Shura, aren't you going to help your successor? If you don't help, there may be extremely terrible consequences."

The Asura God shook his head: "That shouldn't be the case. I feel like something's not right. Given Yang Xiong's personality, how could he be so easily suppressed?"

Poseidon quickly spoke up: "Is it because Lei Qilin is too powerful? Yang Xiong is just a mortal after all. No matter how powerful his body and soul are, he can't compete with gods. Especially Lei Qilin's divine soul is extremely powerful, it seems to be stronger than me. It has probably reached the peak of a first-level god and can barely step into the realm of a god-king."

The Asura God said, "Indeed, as you said, Lei Qilin was a God King in his previous life. Even though he has been dead for countless years, his soul is still incredibly powerful. Moreover, he must have made many preparations for today, and even prepared a super artifact long ago."

Poseidon's face showed a hint of confusion: "Although this Thunder Qilin is powerful, others may not know, but I know your strength. With your strength, especially with Yang Xiong having the Asura Demon Sword, helping him should be a piece of cake. Killing even a wisp of the Thunder Qilin's divine consciousness should be very simple."

The Asura God said helplessly, "I also find it a bit strange. I seem to be unable to fully control the Asura Demon Sword. No matter how strong the Thunder Qilin is, it should be impossible for him to do so."

Poseidon's expression changed in surprise: "This shouldn't be the case. Apart from you, even other god-kings cannot control your Asura Demon Sword, unless that person is..."

The Asura God nodded: "When Yang Xiong completed the seventh trial, his Asura affinity reached 90%, which means he was able to perfectly master the Asura Demon Sword. Now that he has completed the eighth trial, his control over the Asura Demon Sword is no weaker than mine."

Poseidon quickly spoke up: "You mean to say that Yang Xiong did all of this on purpose? Then why did he do it?"

The Asura God said solemnly, "You should be quite clear about Yang Xiong's experience. In order to make his body stronger, he risked his life to break through his limits time and time again. In order to become stronger, he would do anything. No matter how slim the hope was, he would not give up."

"Although this Thunder Qilin is quite detestable, it was indeed a God-King level existence back then. If I'm not mistaken, Yang Xiong probably wants to use the Thunder Qilin's natal lightning to temper his body again, which may actually cause his body to undergo another transformation."

"If that's really the case, his body could probably break through to level 100, and he would definitely be the strongest person in the world, even able to fight you."

Poseidon swallowed hard: "This Yang Xiong is too crazy. The Thunder Qilin is plotting against his body. Isn't he afraid that if he fails, it won't just be a simple matter of falling, but he might even become a sinner in both the human and divine realms?"

The Asura God snorted coldly: "They're just scheming against each other. This Thunder Qilin is scheming against Yang Xiong's body, while Yang Xiong is scheming against the Thunder Qilin's divine position and inherited artifact. Both sides are gambling, and as for who will win or lose, it's hard to say."

The Sea God felt a chill: "They've gambled way too much. If that's the case, anything is possible before they decide the winner." The Asura God shook his head: "It's not that they haven't decided the winner, but rather that the outcome has already been decided. We just need to wait and see how it goes."

"Perhaps I, as the successor, am more outstanding than I imagined, more cunning than I imagined, more determined to become stronger than I imagined, and more terrifyingly talented than I imagined. Maybe in the future I will really be able to lead the God Realm to unprecedented heights."

……

In a certain world, Yang Xiong stared intently at Qian Renxue, who was pointing her sword at him, and Bibi Dong beside her. Suddenly, a smile appeared in his eyes.

"This method is too clumsy. If this is all you have, then there's nothing fun about it."

Qian Renxue's expression changed slightly: "Yang Xiong, what do you mean by that? Am I wrong? Haven't you been provoking me time and time again?"

Yang Xiong sneered, "A beast is a beast. In the end, it still doesn't understand the human world, it still doesn't understand human emotions, it still doesn't understand the complexity of the human world."

"I'm afraid you've observed my past experiences to simulate this scenario, but if you understood my personality, you probably wouldn't have done this pointless work."

Both Qian Renxue, whose expression changed drastically, and Ning Rongrong, who was full of love, looked completely bewildered, as if they did not understand what Yang Xiong meant at all.

Yang Xiong continued, "Rongrong and I are in love, not because we are childhood sweethearts, not because Rongrong is beautiful, and not because Rongrong is a princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but because of our mutual recognition and affection."

"Rongrong and I have come a long way together, going to school together, training together at Shrek Academy, and experiencing all sorts of dangers. We both understand what the other needs and that we are each other's greatest honor. This is something that no romantic love can compare to."

"As for you, Qian Renxue, the reason I let you go is not because of any feelings or love, but for the sake of the whole world and because of my own fear."

"Angels represent light and justice. I have spared you time and time again because of the contributions your angel race has made to the Soul Master world. Only foolish Soul Beasts would mistake it for romantic love."

In fact, Yang Xiong has let Qian Renxue go all these years because he is wary of various forces, such as Qian Daoliu or the powerful Spirit Hall. It has nothing to do with love. In addition, Yang Xiong also has other concerns deep down.

According to the original Douluo Continent novel, Tang San is the true chosen one. If he had actually defeated the Spirit Empire and Qian Renxue ahead of time, then unknown changes would likely have occurred, and he might even have encountered unknown enemies.

At least now Yang Xiong knows Qian Renxue's personality and where the Spirit Empire's bottom line is. Rather than letting Tang San benefit at his own pace, he might as well continue at his own pace.

Yang Xiong knew that Tang San was not as gentle as he appeared. This person was more stubborn and selfish than anyone Yang Xiong had ever met. Otherwise, he wouldn't have caused so much trouble after ten thousand years, and the whole world would have been unified long ago.

It was precisely because of Tang San's selfishness that wars raged throughout the world, and Tang San's Tang Sect took the opportunity to sell weapons and achieve its various goals, even turning Huo Qubing into a pawn.

Qian Renxue's face darkened: "Yang Xiong, you're quite good at pretending. Even on your wedding day, you still don't dare to face your own feelings? I think you're just a coward."

Yang Xiong laughed and said, "There are some things you don't understand. Although you are a high and mighty god, you probably haven't experienced the tests of gods, at least not the tests of the seven emotions and six desires."

Both Qian Renxue and Ning Rongrong's expressions changed drastically. Clearly, even Lei Qilin hadn't expected that Yang Xiong would not have lost his way and would still have his own independent thoughts even now.

Yang Xiong continued, "The so-called Seven Emotions and Six Desires test refers to the seven human desires: joy, anger, worry, thought, grief, fear, and shock. I think this test is not simply a test of joy. Perhaps, for your purposes, all the tests have been combined together, which is why this scene was chosen."

"The wedding day is the happiest time for humans, and also the time when people are most joyful and most easily intoxicated. Then Qian Renxue appears, and her army is pressing in. This is probably the moment I fear the most in the past. At such times, fear and panic are easy to arise. If the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is completely wiped out, or even if all my relatives die in this battle, it will probably be the saddest moment for people..."

"You painstakingly created this scene, but unfortunately, it's just a joke in my eyes. You don't understand me, and you don't understand the people around me."

"I forgot to tell you, I'm the kind of person who's impervious to both soft and hard approaches. In my eyes, there's only the fight that continues until death!"
