Douluo: Peerless Black Tortoise Moon God

Chapter 431 The Abyss's Arrangement, the Revelation of Ten Years' Past, and a Long, drawn-out...

The execution of five powerful figures in a single day had a deterrent effect beyond imagination.

After dealing with the troubles, Xu Tianxi prepared to go into seclusion again. He gathered some people in advance to make overall arrangements.

Xu Sanshi was the first to be summoned. Xu Tianxi informed him that the Abyss Plane Node had been located near Lingdou City and asked Xu Sanshi to step forward in a special capacity if necessary to help relocate the civilians of the Douling Empire.

Xu Sanshi readily agreed, then immediately asked, puzzled, "Third Brother, aren't you leading the army into battle this time?"

"No, I've already removed most of the tough nut to crack in the original Three Kingdoms. If I were to have to step in at this point, it would be too useless."

Xu Tianxi shook his head and said calmly, "The most urgent task is to deal with the invasion of the abyss. Don't bother me with these trivial matters."

"Alright, Third Brother, you are truly a man of extraordinary skill and wisdom, seeing much further than we do."

Xu Sanshi flattered him, and Xu Tianxi jokingly kicked the guy, telling him to cultivate diligently when he got back, as the 300,000-year-old ferocious beast, the Jade Stone Emperor, that he had brought back from the sea was for him.

Upon learning of this good news, Xu Sanshi expressed his gratitude profusely and left happily.

After he left, Di Tian and Gu Yuena appeared out of thin air. Di Tian stroked his chin and said:

"According to what you said, Mountain Dragon King, this Abyss Plane is very dangerous. The lords of the first thirty-six levels are all Limit Douluo-level powerhouses?"

“That’s right, otherwise we wouldn’t have needed to ask you and the Lord to go there and keep an eye on things secretly.”

Xu Tianxi nodded, emphasizing the terrifying nature of the Abyss Plane and the Blood River God-Slaying Array, which allowed the main caster to kill gods, and urged Di Tian to be extremely careful.

"Once the Abyss invades, the impact will be significant, but if we can defeat it from the opposite direction, the benefits to us will be immense. So, I'll leave it to you to keep an eye on things there."

"Alright, don't worry. The Douluo Plane is also our home for soul beasts, and we won't tolerate those disgusting things destroying it!" Di Tian said solemnly, his words firm and powerful, his brows furrowed with murderous intent.

Gu Yuena thought for a moment and said, "The Douluo plane cannot tolerate those disgusting things causing destruction! If necessary, I will definitely return to the god level and meet that Abyss Saint King again!"

"There's no need to rush. You should stay hidden for now." Seeing that Gu Yuena was eager to fight, Xu Tianxi quickly advised her to calm down.

Your brother, the Golden Dragon King, wreaked havoc in the God Realm. If the gods of the God Realm were to discover that you are in the Douluo Continent, they might very well abandon the Abyss and kill you first to avenge their hatred.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena let out an "Ah," her bright purple eyes immediately dimmed, her eyelids drooped, and she looked slightly sad.

She finally had a chance to be full of fighting spirit, but why did that damned Golden Dragon King have to fight so hard?

"Ahem, alright, that's not the point. Also, Di Tian, ​​keep an eye on the person in charge of the Blood River God-Slaying Array. This person is very likely the vessel used by the Abyss Saint King to descend across realms..."

Xu Tianxi then gave further instructions, telling him everything in great detail.

"Alright, with me and the Lord here, you can rest assured." Di Tianyi agreed, made his plans, and pulled Gu Yuena into the void.

"It's alright with you here, but this lord seems more like a figurehead..."

Xu Tianxi pursed his lips, muttered to himself for a while, and then activated the Xuanwu Summoning, summoning a figure over.

This time, it was Xu Jiujiu who was summoned. She opened her beautiful eyes in confusion, looked around at her surroundings, and said with a strange expression:

"Why can't you come to me up here instead of bringing me to this underground villa?"

"It feels safe here, and I like to discuss matters here the most."

Xu Tianxi answered casually, then his expression turned serious, and he said:
"The war is about to begin. The Sun and Moon Army's plan this time is to first break through the Heavenly Soul and Fight the Spirit, and then besiege the Star Luo. If you need to contact your brother, make arrangements in advance."

Having spent several years in the Sun Moon Empire, Xu Jiujiu had a general understanding of its military strength and knew that the original three kingdoms were no match for it. Therefore, he became serious and said:
“My elder brother once said that if you ever returned to Xingluo City, he would welcome you with open arms; I did not expect this day to come so soon, but I think my elder brother will make his own decision.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Tianxi nodded and said, "If the day of the siege of Xingluo City really comes, as long as I have the time, I will definitely go and make a trip."

"Hmm." After a long pause, he nodded, his expression shifting slightly. He then took out a bead emitting a shimmering white starlight from his storage soul tool and said:
"This is the Star God Heavenly Pearl, the national treasure of my Star Luo Empire. You saw it back then; my royal brother asked me to give it to you when your cultivation is complete. Now is the time."

“Star God Heavenly Pearl? I remember my elder brother saying that only those who have reached the Limit Douluo level in the Xu family can use its power, making them invincible under the starry sky.”

Xu Tianxi took the Star God Heavenly Pearl and, after a brief sensing, was able to confirm that it was a genuine divine artifact, of no less quality than the Water God Pearl. However, it was damaged in some places and needed to be repaired.

It gave him a feeling somewhat similar to the Rakshasa Demon Scythe, whose master was dead.

Could this be a relic of a fallen first-level deity that fell into the Douluo plane? The last time a large number of first-level deities perished in the God Realm was probably during the Dragon God War, wasn't it? That era is truly ancient.

"Although you are not yet a Limit Douluo, your strength has already far surpassed that of a Limit Douluo. I think it will definitely be useful in your hands."

After staring at Xu Tianxi for a long time, he sighed and said, "If I had known that you would cultivate so quickly, I would have given it to you more than a year ago. Maybe you could have researched something of value."

"You overestimate me. I've done so much in the past year that I'm completely overwhelmed."

Xu Tianxi sighed. Time was still too tight for him. If he had ten years, he could easily arrange everything and calmly deal with all challenges.

Now, he has no choice but to take a risky gamble, otherwise he will be unable to fight against the Abyss Plane, nor will he be able to complete his plan in the shortest time, to merge the fragments of the Water God and Sea God's positions, and to create the most powerful and robust foundation and strength in the history of the continent.

"But now I'm certain that you've given me a powerful trump card."

After saying this, Xu Tianxi's divine sense entered the Star God Heavenly Pearl, which contained almost inexhaustible power of faith, as well as some fragments of divine positions. He knew that this was accumulated by the Xu family over many years, and it was definitely enough to forge a first-level god position with plenty to spare.

The problem is that the Xu family doesn't know how to repair the Star God's Heavenly Pearl with the power of faith, or perhaps their ancestors didn't have any exceptionally talented figures like the first Sea God or Angel God.

Looking at the history of the mainland, only these two people were able to become gods by their own efforts, and they achieved success in one generation. In their era, they had long lifespans, and it was not difficult for them to live for more than a thousand years. The lifespan of the Limit Douluo in this era is no more than three hundred years. It would be strange if they could understand it.

With such a vast difference in lifespan, it's no wonder later generations were unable to achieve the same success. A genius with innate full soul power has a thousand years; he should have cultivated to become a Limit Douluo by now. However, he knew how to use the power of faith to forge a godhood!
If he so desires, he can quickly use this as a foundation to create a star god!
Even if it's not used to forge a divine position, such immense power of faith can be used to refine a martial soul, or even thrown out as a time bomb. Its power would be no less than that of a level 12 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell ten thousand years later; it would only be more powerful.

If such a thing were suddenly thrown at the Abyss Saint King, the taste would surely be extremely unpleasant...

In terms of combat, according to Xu Tianxi's estimation, the reason why the few Limit Douluo in the history of the Xu family were invincible under the starry sky when using the Star God Heavenly Pearl was probably because their mental strength and body could only withstand that level. If he were to use it, he would definitely be able to fight against a god-level powerhouse, comparable to a god-level healing-type soul master and a god-level support-type soul master.

Xu Jiujiu was still unsure of the level of the item she had presented, but seeing Xu Tianxi's strong approval, she breathed a sigh of relief and said with a gentle smile:

"I'm glad I could help you. I think that after you killed those guys from the Clear Sky Sect, you'll definitely have to face off against Tang San, the Sea God from ten thousand years ago. You... must be careful."

Xu Tianxi stared into her eyes and suddenly said, "Actually, you don't necessarily have to place all your hopes on me. If you are determined to become a god, I can help you."

Xu Jiujiu was stunned for a moment, "Me? You're not joking, are you? It's been a full ten thousand years since Douluo Continent has seen..."

Her eyes showed surprise, clearly indicating a lack of confidence.

"Those seven people from ten thousand years ago had the advantages of their time. In terms of talent, how could the geniuses of this era be any less than them?"

"I, Xu Tianxi, am confident that I am no less than anyone else. Which genius here would not have shone brightly ten thousand years ago? Old Ji alone could have wiped out all the geniuses of ten thousand years ago."

Xu Tianxi's face was filled with passion, his eyes were bright, and his tone was firm, every word containing the power to pierce through gold and shatter stone: "If our predecessors could do it, why can't we, their descendants, do it? This era also holds infinite possibilities!"

After saying that, he didn't wait for Xu Jiujiu to say more. He patted her shoulder and said, "Let's go into seclusion together from now on. Your Xu family's national treasure does indeed contain the key to becoming a god, which will be of great benefit to me. However, I have already embarked on the path to becoming a god. The only one here who is most suitable for the position of star god is you. There is no need to refuse."

After a long while, she raised her beautiful eyes and blinked, then suddenly smiled and said, "Your cultivation has improved, and your personality has become more assertive. Isn't this your true self?"

“People have many facets, don’t be so surprised. You’ll understand more about them in the future,” Xu Tianxi said with a faint smile.

"Yes, but I feel I already know you quite a bit." She stared at the man before her for a long time, her gaze suddenly becoming distant, and said softly:

"If I call you 'teacher' right now, you won't kill me to cover it up, will you?"

Xu Tianxi's expression shifted. "What do you mean?"

"It's very simple, just be open and honest." Xu Jiujiu's cheeks glowed, her eyes becoming increasingly mesmerizing. She stepped forward, opened her arms, and hugged Xu Tianxi, whispering in his ear:

"Let me think... the first time we actually met was probably... about ten years ago, right? Back then, you pretended to be a top expert from Shrek Academy's inner court, and you scared me half to death..."

Xu Tianxi thought to himself, "It's finally here," and sighed softly. Looking into her beautiful eyes, which were flashing with a changing light, he said:

"I won't ask how you figured it out. Back then, I hated Shrek to the bone and did almost anything to achieve it. I feel ashamed now when I think about it."

"I'm sorry, Jiu Jiu. I went too far back then. I will give you an explanation."

He did something too drastic back then, which was the biggest black mark on his life. Now, thinking about it, he feels it's something he shouldn't have done. Making a big deal out of it caused him a lot of trouble for a long time.

Moreover, there are many flaws. Shrek Academy was wiped out, and the genius he was impersonating did not appear. After spending a long time together, he would definitely notice some clues.

"Confess? After that incident, I hated Shrek Academy to the core, wishing I could drag you out and devour you alive, but I searched all over Shrek Academy and couldn't find you. Today you finally appear before me, what am I supposed to do? Teacher?"

He spoke slowly and deliberately, his eyes revealing a complex mix of emotions.

Xu Tianxi found Xu Jiujiu's use of "teacher" rather unsettling. He parted his lips slightly and tried to say, "Why don't you try slashing me a couple of times?"

"You are a god, how can I compare? What knife could make you bleed?" Xu Jiujiu rolled her eyes at him, giving him a "Do you think I'm stupid?" look.

"Then I can only help you cultivate." Xu Tianxi grabbed Xu Jiujiu's wrist with his other hand, and their surging soul power was about to converge.

After struggling for a long time, his eyes sharpened, and he pressed close to her fiercely.

Xu Tianxi suddenly felt a warm breath on his face, followed by a sharp pain on his lips. "You bit me? It doesn't have to be like this, does it?"

"A villain like you who has changed his appearance should have been killed long ago. This is the lesson you taught me, teacher." Xu Jiujiu echoed with his mental power, this time with even greater force.

"Jiujiu, you're like a lamb entering a tiger's den," Xu Tianxi reminded the other person, as he was no saint.

"Heh, then show me. In the past, you would seek me out every night in arduous cultivation. My elder brother and the two lords misunderstood me and even asked me when I would have an heir. You've caused me so much suffering that I can't even speak of it..."

After a long while, a defiant light flickered in her beautiful eyes, and her words were full of sorrow.

“You’ll regret this…” Xu Tianxi said firmly.

Xu Jiujiu sneered: "What would I regret? If we're talking about cultivation level, I'm not at a loss anyway... Waaah..."

Her breathing suddenly became difficult, and the man began to change his target, his hands becoming restless.

Soon, she felt a strong arm wrap around her legs and lift her up in a horizontal embrace. She tried to struggle, but the person held her hands tightly with one hand.

"How can you be so good at teasing people, boohoo..."

"You get what you ask for, and you have to accept the consequences of your bet..."

Xu Tianxi, holding the beautiful, hot body, quickly bypassed a rockery screen and arrived at a soft bed, where he began to untie her belt with one hand.

Behind the screen, the candlelight flickered, and soon the silhouettes were like a painting, with waves swaying in the breeze.

Unbeknownst to anyone, a patch of fiery red autumn maple leaves fell in the underground garden, resembling a crimson sunset.
