Peerless Tang Sect: Becoming a God Through Medicine

Chapter 127 Sometimes, legends are not legends

"Alright, Arno, let me see what you've gotten from this Soul Hunt!"

After dinner, the family gathered together, and Jing Hongchen spoke first. He had noticed as soon as he got home that Lin Nuo and Meng Hongchen were acting mysteriously, especially Meng Hongchen's eyes. How could he not see through that?

They clearly had that "I love a good show" look in their eyes, just waiting to see the grandfather and grandson make a fool of themselves.

"Exactly, all that hiding and concealing made me think Arno was about to unleash the Heavenly Forge." Xiao Hongchen picked his teeth and patted Lin Nuo's shoulder casually.

Lin Nuo didn't keep them in suspense. He chuckled at the two of them, and one spirit ring after another lit up around him. From the moment the first crimson light appeared, the two of them jumped up from their chairs. As one crimson spirit ring after another appeared, their expressions became more and more exaggerated.

When all seven 100,000-year soul rings were hovering around Lin Nuo, Xiao Hongchen's face had become numb.

He pointed at the spirit rings on Lin Nuo's body and chuckled dryly, "Arno, you don't actually think that by creating this obviously fake spirit ring configuration like that clown from Shrek Academy, you can shock me and Grandpa, do you?"

"You said that yourself. If only your seventh spirit ring was 100,000 years old, I might believe you a little. But you've changed all your previous spirit rings. No one would believe that, right?"

Lin Nuo simply shrugged at this.

Beside her, Jing Hongchen frowned, while Meng Hongchen covered her mouth to suppress a laugh.

Xiao Hongchen was stunned, then his eyes widened: "No, it can't be true, can it?"

"Of course it's true. I have no reason to play these tricks in front of my own family," Lin Nuo said innocently, spreading his hands.

"How did you do that?" Jing Hongchen finally showed a look of surprise. "I remember that after the people of the Body Sect awakened their martial souls for the second time, the lifespan of some of their soul rings would increase according to the intensity of the second awakening, but at most it would be a hundred years to a thousand years, or a thousand years to ten thousand years."

"Even if you used the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor, which is of the same origin as Blue Silver Grass, as your seventh spirit ring to promote the second awakening of your martial soul, you shouldn't have upgraded all your spirit rings to the 100,000-year level, right?!"

Jing Hongchen's theoretical knowledge was undoubtedly solid, and he quickly connected the matter of increasing the age of the soul ring with the second awakening of the main body's martial soul.

His guess was both correct and incorrect. Lin Nuo changed the color of his spirit rings twice. Once was when his martial spirit evolved into the World Tree, which enhanced the essence of his martial spirit, causing all his spirit rings to turn black.

The second time was to absorb the Snow Emperor's embryo, allowing the Snow Emperor's excess, unabsorbable essence to be used, just as the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm increased Huo Yuhao's soul ring age, thus raising all of his soul rings to 100,000 years.

Accepting the sacrifice of the Blue Silver Emperor did increase the age of his spirit ring, but it only changed his 100,000-year spirit ring from having no gold pattern to having one gold pattern.

However, Lin Nuo did not intend to clarify the matter, but instead planned to cover it up with the Divine Test.

He lightly touched his brow, and a phantom image of an ancient tree full of vitality flashed past behind him. At the same time, a sense of superiority unique to the divine level descended upon Jing Hongchen and the other two.

"This, this is...??" Jing Hongchen was stunned, her mind went blank.

This was beyond the comprehension of a centenarian like him! Especially in the Sun Moon Empire, where soul tools were prevalent and top-tier soul masters were rare, the aura of a god completely overwhelmed Jing Hongchen, leaving him unable to connect it with anything divine for the time being. On the other hand, Xiao Hongchen was somewhat bewildered; as a level 59 Soul King, how could he possibly understand such things?

Aloof from worldly affairs? Looking down from above?
I don't feel anything. Isn't this just ordinary pressure from a powerful person?

It can only be said that the closer you get to the limits of the world, the more you understand the huge gap between yourself and it. If you don't see me, you are like a frog in a well looking at the bright moon; if you see me, you are like a mayfly looking at the blue sky. That's the point.

Although Jing Hongchen's individual combat strength has reached level 98 with the assistance of the soul tool, his true cultivation level is ultimately only level 94, which is not as good as A Yi before his sacrifice.

Combat strength and realm cannot be regarded as equals. In addition, the Sun Moon Empire is not interested in the legends of gods, which makes it impossible for Jing Hongchen to understand.

"Grandpa, this is the mark of the divine test. Arno has already gained the approval of the gods and has begun the test for inheriting the divine position." Seeing that Jing Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen looked confused, Xiao Meng kindly reminded them.

"Divine... Divine Trial?!" Xiao Hongchen exclaimed in surprise, staring dumbfounded at the divine trial mark on Lin Nuo's forehead. "Meng, don't tell me that the divine trial you're referring to is the legendary divine trial from Douluo Three Kingdoms, right?"

"I always thought the legends of gods in Douluo Continent were all made up. The Seven Devils breaking through to the hundredth level and becoming gods and ascending to heaven sounded like nonsense. Arno, your divine test wouldn't happen to be the one recorded in their legends, would it?"

Jing Hongchen also realized that this was exactly what he had been hoping for.

Not only does he want to break through to the Limit Douluo level, but he also wants to look forward to the legendary level 100 and see if the so-called gods really exist! He hadn't realized it before, but now that he had, Jing Hongchen's heart was filled with excitement.

Lin Nuo really did it!

“Sometimes, legends are not just legends, but real history. I can’t speak for other things, but gods certainly exist.” Lin Nuo pointed to his forehead.

"The divine position I want to inherit is called the God of Life. When my Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul obtained its seventh spirit ring, I was fortunate enough to receive the attention of the gods and was given a divine position test. As long as I complete all the divine tests, I can become the next God of Life."

The cup in Xiao Hongchen's hand fell to the ground with a clatter, so shocking that it even caused his level 59 soul power to break through to level 60.

"So, the original Shrek Seven Devils of Shrek Academy were real? They really did have a god as their backer?" Jing Hongchen focused on another point, his brows furrowing slightly.

No wonder the Sun and Moon Kingdoms, despite their combined national strength, have repeatedly suffered defeats at the hands of Shrek. Considering that the other side has divine backing, their inability to defeat them seems reasonable.

Lin Nuo nodded, confirming Jing Hongchen's guess, but didn't explain further. The explanation would be about the previous Douluo Continent.

"No wonder the meal was so lavish today. It wasn't just to celebrate Arno's breakthrough to Soul Saint, but also to celebrate Arno's passing of the Divine Trial!" Xiao Hongchen grinned, feeling very gratified.

Xiaomeng has excellent taste.
