Douluo Continent: Dark Demon God Biao, inheriting the position of an evil god

Chapter 50: Drawing a pie in the sky? No, this is called painting a rosy picture of the future.

Seeing that Xue Di remained rational and was willing to talk, Long Xiaoyao took a deep breath.

What he feared most was that the Snow Emperor and the Ice Emperor would join forces and launch a fierce attack, otherwise he would probably be in grave danger today.

Then, under the slightly surprised gazes of the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress, Long Xiaoyao turned his massive dragon head towards the seemingly deserted ice cliff on one side of the canyon and shouted:
"Kid, stop hiding, it's your turn! You should have a good talk with these two about your grand plans!"

After he finished speaking, a hint of relief flashed in his eyes, along with a hint of annoyance.

That brat almost broke this old man's bones!
After he finished speaking, there was a moment of silence.

Immediately, a figure slowly emerged from behind an ice rock half-hidden by wind and snow.

It was Dai Yuntian.

He first bowed slightly to the enormous dark holy dragon in the sky: "Thank you for your hard work, Elder Dragon."

Long Xiaoyao deactivated his Martial Soul True Form and reverted to human form, nodding with satisfaction: "Hmm."

Then, Dai Yuntian raised his head.

Her clear gaze met without fear the Snow Empress's piercing eyes and the Ice Empress's cold, scrutinizing gaze.

Dai Yuntian didn't waste any words and went straight to the point: "Snow Empress, if I'm not mistaken, your seven hundred thousand-year tribulation is just around the corner, isn't it?"

Although Xue Di's beautiful face remained calm and composed, a storm was brewing deep within her heart.

How did he find out?!

Dai Yuntian ignored Xue Di's doubts and turned to look at Bing Di, his tone equally certain:
"And you, Hyotei, your 400,000-year tribulation must be imminent."

His words were like knives, easily piercing the two women's most vulnerable spots:

"Besides, you yourselves know better than anyone else... that you won't get through this, right?"

"you!"

Hyotei's expression changed drastically. She was the most impulsive and easily angered of all, and utterly intolerant of threats. Instantly, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, she retorted:

"So what? Even if I can't make it through, I'll still rush into your human world and self-destruct before I die! I'll take as many as I can with me!"

Faced with this threat of mutual destruction, Dai Yuntian simply spread his hands calmly and patiently explained:

As the saying goes, it's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death.

"You have cultivated for hundreds of thousands of years and endured countless hardships to achieve your current strength and status. Are you really willing to perish in body and soul, or even become a madman who only seeks to perish together with others?"

He abruptly changed the subject, offering a tempting offer that sounded like a fantasy to the other party:
"Don't you want to... witness firsthand the scenery after reaching level 100 and becoming a god? Don't you want to possess true eternal life and power that transcends the mortal realm?"

Hyotei immediately reacted as if they had heard the most absurd joke in the world, clutching their tablets and laughing uncontrollably:

"Level 100? Hahaha, Xue'er, did you hear that? This kid... this kid actually wants to show us what it's like to be above level 100! It's hilarious! Who does he think he is? The son of God?"

Even the usually aloof and composed Snow Empress couldn't help but slightly turn her head, her slender hand lightly covering her lips, letting out a barely audible chuckle: "Hehe..."

Faced with two beings who have survived for hundreds of thousands of years and stand at the pinnacle of soul beasts.

A seemingly immature human boy makes empty promises about the path to godhood.

This is as ridiculous as a beggar on the street promising wealth and glory to the emperor of an empire.

Not far away, Long Xiaoyao's lips twitched involuntarily, and he thought to himself.

Laugh, laugh all you want... That's what I thought back then too.

Just as Hyotei's mocking laughter had not yet completely subsided.

Dai Yuntian said no more.

He slowly raised his right hand, his index and middle fingers together, and gently touched his brow. Buzz—!
The next moment.

Beneath the skin on his forehead, a complex and ancient dark gold mark suddenly appeared, bursting forth with a deep and pure dark divine light!
The light was not dazzling, but it seemed to contain endless majesty.

The mark of the evil god!

"Snow Emperor, Ice Emperor".

Under the divine light, Dai Yuntian's voice gained an added air of holiness and majesty: "You should be quite familiar with this level of power, right?"

Hyotei, who had been laughing heartily just moments before, suddenly stopped laughing, her pretty face turning deathly pale, her pink lips parted wide, her heart filled with disbelief.

Recalling what had just happened, she felt a wave of fear wash over her.

She actually mocked a son of God?

Xue Di's beautiful eyes widened, and her usually calm face finally showed a dramatic change.

She instinctively bit her lower lip tightly, her eyes filled with disbelief.

As beings who have lived for an incredibly long time, both women had sensed the strange changes in the heavens and earth caused when Tang San, the Sea God, ascended to the God Realm ten thousand years ago.

They have a clear understanding of that transcendent divine light.

What shocked them even more was the divine pressure emanating from the boy's mark, and the level and purity of that pressure, which they perceived upon closer inspection.

It seemed to be more ancient and more powerful than the light of godhood they vaguely remembered!

Could it be... that the deity behind him is even more powerful than the sea god?!

At this moment, the arrogance and doubt in the hearts of the two rulers of the far north were completely shattered by this real divine mark.

Looking at the two women in front of her, who had just been domineering queens, they instantly transformed into somewhat bewildered and confused young girls.

Dai Yuntian blinked, his tone tinged with a hint of smugness:

"Well, you two, now... can you listen to me properly?"

Snow Empress and Ice Empress subconsciously exchanged a glance, both seeing the same shock and a hint of... well, probably the guilt of "kicking a hornet's nest".

no way.

Anyone who was laughing at someone for being a bragging kid just a second ago.

The next second, it was confirmed that the other person had a real expert backing them up, which must have made them lose their composure.

After a few seconds of silence, Xue Di regained her composure first.

She took a soft breath, and when she looked at Dai Yuntian again, the condescension in her eyes was completely gone, replaced by an unprecedented seriousness:
"Go ahead and tell us, we're listening."

Dai Yuntian nodded in satisfaction and began to make empty promises.

Oh no, it's describing a bright future:
"That's the situation. As you can see, I am the successor chosen by the God of Evil, and my ascension to the divine realm is a foregone conclusion!"

He then shifted his tone and put forward his core proposal:
"So, what I've brought you here to discuss is that you two will have to do the hard work and offer yourselves as soul rings and soul bones for me."

"Once I ascend to the God Realm, I will immediately resurrect you. At that time, you will be officially recognized members of the God Realm, starting with a level 100 strength. You will no longer have to worry about heavenly tribulations. How about it? Isn't this a good deal?"

Hyotei's eyes widened in astonishment. He subconsciously touched his smooth chin and murmured:
"Sacrifice...and then be resurrected in the realm of gods? And still have level 100 strength? This sounds like a scam to idiots..."

But then she stole another glance at the "divine certification" mark still faintly glowing on Dai Yuntian's forehead, and swallowed back the rest of her complaint.

What if... what if it's true?
