Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue.

Chapter 4 Dimensional Spiritual Consciousness, the Truth

This was her plan. When she became a god, both Qian Renxue learned the same information: at the very top of the Douluo plane, there was a spatial barrier set up by the God Realm, covering the sky above the Douluo Continent. The purpose was to prevent some cultivators with extremely high cultivation levels but no divine inheritance from ascending to the God Realm.

To pass through this dimensional barrier, one must possess god-level power to open it.

After two great battles, the two deities had very little divine power left. If she were to commit suicide, she could push Tang San into the spatial barrier, where he would undoubtedly be killed.

Qian Renxue released her hands, letting herself fall. She had no strength left. At this height, with her broken body, falling to the ground would only mean certain death.

Suddenly, a tremendous azure divine power surged forth, pulling Tang San out of the barrier.

"No! No! No!" Qian Renxue shouted in fear. She was about to succeed, but another unexpected event occurred.

"What a ruthless girl." Poseidon appeared at the edge of the dimensional barrier.

Qian Renxue made a mistake; she underestimated Tang San's protectors.

She never expected that Poseidon would be so shameless as to descend into the Douluo Continent in his true form this time.

"Loser, like your divine ancestor, vanish. The divine realm has no need for an angel god!"

What a joke! If Qian Renxue really ascended to the God Realm, he and Shura would probably be hunted down to death by this madwoman. Although the Angel God was only a first-level god, Poseidon had no doubt that given enough time, she would hunt him and Shura to the ends of the earth, even after they had left the God Realm.

Poseidon's eyes hardened, and he threw Qian Renxue into the dimensional barrier. A massive surge of spatial energy engulfed Qian Renxue's body.

Golden-haired Qian Renxue slowly opened her eyes, wondering if she was already dead. In her last memory, the little devil must have been thrown into the dimensional barrier by the sea god, or rather, the former sea god Poseidon.

She was completely exhausted at that point, and there was no chance of survival under those circumstances. It's regrettable, but given the situation, the two of them truly pushed themselves to the limit.

This is a dark space, with only one glittering "dot".

Qian Renxue gasped for breath, but even this simple movement caused her to gasp in pain, clearly a consequence of her body being strangled by the dimensional barrier. She tried to contact another version of herself deep within, but the little demon was obviously exhausted and had fallen into a deep sleep in her spiritual sea.

"Qian Renxue." The glittering dot flickered, and the voice rang directly in Qian Renxue's mind.

"...Who?" Qian Renxue looked around, finally focusing on the glittering dot.

"I am the will of the Douluo Continent, but more accurately, I should say spiritual consciousness." The light continued to radiate light. "Because the Douluo Continent is considered a high-energy plane among all the planes under the Douluo God Realm, I evolved from will into spiritual consciousness. Will cannot communicate with you directly; it's more like a kind of intelligence. And I, I possess wisdom."

"Intelligence? Wisdom? You saved me?" Qian Renxue frowned. Since the other party could communicate directly in the mental realm, she didn't need to open her mouth—avoiding the pain of grimacing again from speaking.

She roughly understood. The key to intelligence lies in "ability," much like the carriage she usually travels in on Douluo Continent. It no longer needs horses or a driver; just set a location for the carriage, give it some power, and it can move there by itself. The key to wisdom lies in "intelligence." If the carriage had intelligence, she could probably take Qian Renxue on a journey across the continent.

"That's right, Poseidon sent you into the dimensional barrier, and I saved you in the instant the space twisted." The dimensional consciousness flickered. "I brought you here to make a deal with you."

"A trade? I have nothing now. My divine position is shattered, my body is broken. You can feel it, right? I can't even speak." Qian Renxue said self-deprecatingly using her mental power.

"I know everything that happened in the Douluo plane, and it's not all your fault." The plane's spiritual consciousness flickered. "Let me show you—please, close your eyes."

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue closed her eyes. Images flashed through her mind, starting from Tang San's transmigration with the cultivation techniques and strange knowledge of another world, and then to his inexplicable good fortune on his path to growth, which led him to a dilapidated academy that used the name of the Spirit Hall to recruit students. There, he met various noble young masters and princesses from the two great empires and the three upper sects, as well as two highly talented commoner soul masters.

Later, he had a stroke of good luck and arrived at a place called the "Ice and Fire Hot Pot," a place of great fortune. He obtained the greatest opportunity of his life, and from then on, he and his companions began to defy fate... Until the very end, the Sea God and the Asura God, in order to help him and save him, did not hesitate to violate the ironclad laws of the divine realm and intervened in the mortal world many times!

Suddenly, the scene shifted, and Qian Renxue looked at the scene with a hint of embarrassment and annoyance.

Are you humiliating me?

"No, I have no interest in those silly pranks, but you can see who was testing you when you took the ninth test from the angels."

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue looked towards the screen.

"...Poseidon, the sea god?" She stared incredulously at the palace in the scene, located in the sky above the Douluo Continent, a place unseen by the world. She had visited that place countless times in her dreams and knew that it was the legendary Angel Temple.

But at this very moment, in the Angel Temple where she was being tested, a sea-blue figure was pointing at the angel statue, continuously pouring divine power into it, changing the appearance of her original ninth test.

Then, the figure murmured, "It's only human nature to experience joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, hate, and desire. I never expected this little girl to be able to suppress the malice in her heart and be so single-minded on the path to godhood. So far, it seems only her mother and grandfather can influence her. She's truly remarkable, but it's a pity—"

"Then let's give her a big one."

The figure took out something resembling a brocade pouch and threw it into the image of Qian Renxue undergoing the Nine Trials. Thus, in the final challenge, a scene that should not have occurred unfolded.

What happened next completely broke Qian Renxue down.

"Truly a gift from the God of Emotions. It's more than enough to forcibly implant a non-existent consciousness and emotion into someone undergoing divine trials. So let's add some fun to your path to godhood."

As if playing a prank, Poseidon chuckled and said, "Oh right, this part also needs to be extracted and tested on my successor. If the angel's Dao Heart is shattered, wouldn't that... be twice as effective?"

A tremendous fear exploded deep within Qian Renxue's heart as she watched from the sidelines, and she trembled uncontrollably. If the "good luck" and "protectors" she had just witnessed could be understood as safeguarding her, then this behavior... wasn't it tantamount to directly manipulating everyone?

No wonder, no wonder she herself found it strange that she fell in love with Tang San. At first, she did admire him quite a bit, and even thought about recruiting him to become a spy in the Clear Sky Sect.

However, the life-and-death hatred between the Clear Sky Sect, the Tang family, the Spirit Hall, and the Qian family made it impossible for her to develop any romantic feelings for her enemy.

Under the previous Sea God's actions, she was completely unable to resist and could only be an actor bound by the script on the stage, like a clown!

This chapter describes Xuezi's thoughts when faced with the concepts of "intelligence" and "wisdom." It's not just useless description to pad the word count, but rather it lays the groundwork for her to quickly master soul guidance technology later in the Douluo Continent II: The Legend of the Condor Heroes era.

The reasons why the sea god altered the ninth test of the angels will not be elaborated on here, but one point is that the sea god actually usurped some of the powers that originally belonged to the angel gods, namely, the divine authority.

In Chapter 259 of the original novel, Tang Chen said to Tang San, "Until just now, with the help of the power of your Sea God's Light, I finally broke through the barrier. | I used the sacred and radiant aura of the Sea God's Light to dispel all the evil thoughts left by the Rakshasa God in the Asura God's mind."

Chapter 260: What Ghost Douluo feared most was the holy light released by a Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, a light that was the nemesis of his own Martial Soul. And this golden light before him was even more terrifying than the holy light released by the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul he had once experienced. The holy power contained within it left him no chance to break free, and he was unable to unleash even a single Soul Skill. He desperately urged his Soul Power to sustain himself.

These two points serve as evidence.
