Douluo Continent: Not enough bloodline? Make up for it with brains

Chapter 559 Xu Yuan's Thoughts

Yan Long comes from the Crimson Realm.

Xu Yuan gave a wry smile.

Lex really gave him some useful information.

The news was outdated. Yan Long had not only arrived at the battlefield long ago and put pressure on Yun Ming, but had also held Yun Ming back for a long time in the previous battle.

However, the news still has its uses.

"Yan Long."

Continuing to analyze the information in the Great Transmission Technique, Xu Yuan obtained information about Yan Long from Lex's message.

"They were able to recruit even the Crimson Mother's top general, and they seemed to be very cooperative. The relationship between the Abyss Saint and the Crimson Mother might be deeper than I imagined."

Xu Yuan looked towards the abyss.

It is highly unlikely that the Crimson Mother will leave the Crimson Realm.

The reason she is so strong is largely due to her status as the ruler of a plane.

It is precisely because of the power of heaven and earth within the vast territory of the Crimson Realm that she is able to have an invincible tendency below the God King.

However, precisely because of this, once she leaves the area covered by her own plane, her power will drop drastically, at a much greater rate than when the Abyss Saint King leaves the Abyss.

Therefore, she herself is most likely—

Xu Yuan was stunned.

The Crimson Mother, the ruler of all planes.

The Abyss Saint King, Lord of Planes.

At that moment, Xu Yuan seemed to understand the relationship between the two.

inherited.

They are either children or teachers and students.

The Abyss Saint Lord might be more important to the Crimson Mother than her son, Yan Long!

Yan Long, after all, did not inherit the methods of the plane lord of the Crimson Mother.

Becoming the master of a plane is not something that can be done casually.

Yun Ming's methods were somewhat opportunistic, but his methods could indeed be replicated. This was the inheritance: using the Seven Forbidden Techniques to control an evolving space, and then using this to create one's own world, directly becoming the master of the plane.

However, this kind of dimension still needs to be developed.

Tang Hao only barely became the master of the plane after Tang San pushed him forward and spent a lot of time and energy, and may even have relied on the power of the forging system developed in the world of soul masters. He still needs to sleep every day to relieve the pressure.

Therefore, becoming the master of a plane is not simply a matter of knowing this path.

Instead, we need to have a method.

You also need an opportunity.

"Now that Tang Hao has awakened, it is unlikely that the Abyss Saint King and Yan Long will make a move in the short term."

Xu Yuan pondered.

The balance between the two sides has now been broken once again.

Our side, with its two plane lords and Xu Yuan, already surpasses the power of the Abyss.

In this situation, the Abyss Saint King might actually be able to call for help again.

It's also possible to sever the connection with Douluo Star, completely abandon everything from before, and no longer feel sorry for sunk costs.

Xu Yuan had specifically mentioned sunk costs to the Abyss Saint King in order to reduce the possibility of the latter.

After all, the transformation of Douluo Star does require the participation, or even cooperation, of the Abyss.

"I also mentioned that the Douluo Star-Abyss model has the potential to advance into the God Realm. The Abyss Saint King should already know the importance of this place, which would be more convincing and allow the Crimson Mother to send more reinforcements."

Xu Yuan hadn't expected this outcome, because he had no idea that Yan Long came from the Crimson Realm.

"Use the Great Transmission Technique to contact Lex first, and have him use the Wanxing Chamber of Commerce's channels to keep an eye on the Crimson Domain's movements. If the Crimson Domain dares to send out a large number of powerful individuals, then their homeland will be in danger."

This is called "besieging Wei to rescue Zhao".

Activating the Great Transmission Technique to explain the situation on his side, Xu Yuan turned to look at Yun Ming.

"Who were you just now?"

Yun Ming was slightly uncertain.

He had never heard of the Great Transmission Technique, so he wasn't sure what Xu Yuan had just been doing.

"This has something to do with me these past three years, Na'er."

"I see. You used the divine consciousness within that withered tree to travel to the Sacred Heart Plane and cultivated there for three years." Yun Ming took a deep breath, a hint of longing in his eyes.

This is the plane that gave birth to three half-step God-Kings.

How prosperous must such a plane be?

Moreover, the magic that Xu Yuan had previously taught him actually came from this plane.

Yunming developed a strong interest in the Sacred Heart Plane, which was developed based on this system.

Unfortunately, he is now the ruler of the underworld and cannot leave it for the time being.

"Crimson Realm."

Hearing Xu Yuan recount the information he had just obtained, Yun Ming also felt the pressure.

Having just stabilized the situation that had been deteriorating due to Yan Long's arrival, are we about to face a new enemy?

That kind of pressure is really quite significant.

But Yun Ming was not discouraged; on the contrary, he was somewhat excited.

Since becoming the number one on the continent, he hadn't felt this kind of pressure from increasingly stronger enemies for a long time.

Pressure can be a motivator.

Moreover, Yun Ming also knew that this was just pressure, not a dead end.

Just as Xu Yuan had thought, once the Crimson Domain sent too many powerful individuals to the Abyss, their homeland would inevitably face even greater pressure.

"Teacher, we need you to negotiate with the ruler of our plane."

"Don't worry, now that he's awake, I'll have a good talk with him," Yun Ming said calmly.

This time, it was he who forced Tang Hao to wake up.

It's unknown how long he, the ruler of this plane, would have remained asleep if no one had forced him to.

"From what you're saying, are you leaving again?"

Xu Yuan nodded with a wry smile.

There is no way out if we stay on Douluo Star.

If you want to make rapid progress, going to a wider world is the right way.

Xu Yuan also wanted to resolve the issues on Douluo Star before venturing out, but his strength did not allow it.

In fact, Tang San could have resolved everything just now, but he didn't take action. For him, the benefits of taking action at that time would not be maximized, so he didn't act.

Xu Yuan couldn't possibly blame Tang San.

There was no way around it; even though it was just divine sense, which seemed exhausting, the opponent's power was enough to freeze Xu Yuan, who was in a completely unstable state, for half a minute with the Unpredictable Storm.

It can immobilize someone for half a minute with just one move; if it were any other move, it would probably be at the level of a god-king.

This is why Xu Yuan doesn't provoke Tang Wulin.

As for using Tang Wulin's divine sense to deal with Tang San, that's utter nonsense.

The Douluo God Realm has now fallen into some black hole, and a great god circle is about to be formed. How is Xu Yuan supposed to find it at this time?

His exploration of the universe was limited to the Sacred Heart Plane, yet he was able to search for the black hole that the Douluo God Realm was trapped in in the vast universe.

To resolve the numerous problems left behind by Tang San, and even to eliminate him as the instigator?

The right approach is to first make yourself stronger.

The so-called Spirit Furnace Continent is not in his universe, which is very good news for Xu Yuan and is also the motivation for him to leave Douluo Star again.

A promotion is absolutely essential and cannot be delayed.

Therefore, leaving the current universe and traveling to other universes to find solutions is inevitable.

"Little Phoenix, how long will it take me to get to the Spirit Furnace Continent you mentioned?"

Considering the time wasted on the journey to the Sacred Heart Continent, Xu Yuan, to be on the safe side, asked Little Phoenix first.

"It can't be delivered."

"What?"

Xu Yuan shouted loudly, looking at the little phoenix with a questioning gaze.

Little Phoenix rolled her eyes.

"When did I ever say I could take you to the Spirit Furnace Continent?"

"Didn't you say you could find my father?"

"Yes, but that's because I was able to find him. I sent him there using some things I left behind, and through contact, I was able to send his soul there. I paid a price; my consciousness can be reincarnated there. But are you sure you want to reincarnate now?"

The little phoenix looked Xu Yuan up and down.

This body has been cultivated to such perfection, honed to such an extreme degree, that I would feel it would be a pity to give it up.

Xu Yuan frowned.

Can't we get through?

The latest chapter of this novel is available on the first release page. Please go and read it there!

Doesn't this mean the plan has fallen through?

"There's no other way. If you want your main body to go there, you first need to have a Supreme God-King or control the central hub of the God Realm to open a path to other universes with the power of the entire God Realm. Then you have to find the coordinates in the other universe, just like when you go from Douluo Star to the Sacred Heart Plane. You have to find it however you need to. It's very troublesome."

Xu Yuan was even more annoyed at this moment.

We can't go?

So how can we make rapid progress next?

Are we really going to be content with the status quo, stop striving for progress, enjoy our current near-invincible situation, and then be caught off guard by a sudden and powerful enemy?

Pressure does not equate to motivation.

Power also requires fuel conversion.

Without fuel, where can we get power?

The so-called fuel is opportunity, it is resource.

"Reincarnation."

Xu Yuan turned around, genuinely contemplating the path of reincarnation.

Judging from the little phoenix's tone, it seems that reincarnation could save that troublesome process.

If reincarnation is possible, then reincarnation is absolutely not an option.

No, it is definitely bound to my soul. It doesn't have a physical body; it's a spirit. Perhaps it can come with me to the Spirit Furnace Continent.

But what happens after reincarnation?

Does returning to Douluo Star require another reincarnation?

Moreover, being reborn twice and starting cultivation all over again wastes even more time.

Is there a way to reincarnate without affecting the original body?

The physical body remained on Douluo Star, while the consciousness traveled to the Spirit Furnace Continent?

"I don't know if it will work."

Xu Yuan found a solution.

"Little Phoenix, if I could separate a wisp of my consciousness, could you send it over there?"

"Consciousness? What level of consciousness?" the little phoenix asked in confusion.

"Complete consciousness, a completely new consciousness."

"What do you mean?" Little Phoenix asked, indicating she didn't understand.

Once the entire consciousness passes away, it signifies reincarnation. The body in this world will naturally disintegrate and gradually decompose, making it impossible to return.

However, if they are separated, it will inevitably lead to a split personality.

That could easily lead to the same situation that happened to the Dragon God back then.

"I will nurture a completely new consciousness, in the form of runes," Xu Yuan said.

His consciousness sank into his inner world, experiencing it while explaining his thoughts.

"I am the inner world, and the inner world is me. I will use the inner world to nurture a rune that carries my consciousness. Will it be successful to send this rune there?"

The little phoenix hesitated slightly before saying "this."

She has never done that before.

"What can you teleport?" Xu Yuan asked directly about the little phoenix's teleportation ability.

"I can teleport you to the rune you mentioned, but can you guarantee that the consciousness of that rune is your consciousness? Also, that consciousness has experienced everything completely over there. Even if you merge with that consciousness after it returns, it will be equivalent to merging a split consciousness, which will still cause mental schizophrenia. That's very dangerous."

Xu Yuan shook his head.

"I will not allow any break between my consciousness and that rune's consciousness; we will always remain connected, so there will be no split in my mind," he said. "My physical body will fall into a deep sleep, while my soul's essence will remain here. The rune's role is simply to carry my consciousness and send it over there."

"However, if it's just consciousness and not the essence of the soul, you can't be reincarnated."

"My goal is to witness that place, to feel its laws. It doesn't necessarily mean I'll be reborn as a human, a conscious, spirit-like rune. Even if I get there, there will still be opportunities for cultivation, such as evolving into a spirit furnace?"

The little phoenix was taken aback.

That makes a lot of sense.

It is only consciousness that has passed away and has no origin, but consciousness can still reside in a rare and precious material like a spirit furnace and become a spirit of the artifact.

Moreover, if one can use one's own characteristics and the mechanisms of that plane to successfully create a brand new spiritual furnace vessel, that would be experiencing the laws of that plane from the best possible perspective.

"You can give it a try, but your rune needs to be able to separate your consciousness, and you need to ensure that it can bring your consciousness back with it."

"Don't worry, this theory has already been proven."

Does the theory hold true?

Little Phoenix was stunned for a moment, then realized that Xu Yuan had just conducted a theoretical verification from beginning to end under the time acceleration of the dream space.

In theory, such runes can be condensed.

"That's good."

After the great battle ended, Xu Yuan's fame spread throughout the entire continent.

In this battle, Xu Yuan and Yun Ming became equally famous.

At the same time, Xu Yuan forcibly took away the title of the greatest genius in the history of the Soul Master world.

If this doesn't count as the number one genius, then who does?

Historically, sea gods achieved their status through the inheritance of divine positions, but Xu Yuan truly achieved it through his own efforts!

Most importantly, Xu Yuan is a living legend.

With Shrek Academy's encouragement and the Federation's cooperation, Xu Yuan felt a strong power of faith the very next day.

"Is this what faith is?"

Having gained his own power of faith, and an instantaneously profound faith, he had a direct experience of faith.

"This amount of faith is not enough. For you, the more faith power the better. The opening of the divine realm is not that easy," said the little phoenix.

Xu Yuan did not respond.

He had thought about this before: the path to becoming a god-king does not necessarily require a god realm.

The essence of the God-King is actually an elevation of dimensions, a condensation of the origin.

Of course, currently, all the god-kings in this universe have successfully advanced to their current level with the help of the divine realm.

If Xu Yuan wants to forge his own path, he must pin his hopes on this trip to the Spirit Furnace Continent.

"Spiritual script."

Within his inner world, Xu Yuan's consciousness gazed at the runes before him, lost in thought.

The prototype of the spirit rune has been developed and is capable of carrying his consciousness.

However, there are still many shortcomings.

It is still not possible to perfectly meet his requirements.

"I also need to seamlessly separate and integrate my consciousness and soul. No, not separate, but isolate, and also strengthen the connection."

Xu Yuan muttered to himself, his words riddled with contradictions.

However, upon closer examination, one will find that these contradictory statements all point in different directions.

"Yes, it also needs a martial spirit. The essence of the inner world is the martial spirit. I need to integrate the martial spirit into this rune so that it can represent me and also solve the problem of strong connection."

What kind of spirit furnace will evolve if you enter that place carrying the runes of your martial spirit?

Xu Yuan smiled, a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
