Douluo Continent: The Martial Soul is actually Bibi Dong.

Chapter 139 Sea God Tang San

This power of time and space was brought by Su Mo's time travel.

The same goes for Bibi Dong; both he and Bibi Dong's time travel was influenced by some spacetime power.

It wasn't until Su Mo broke through to the Soul King realm that he awakened the power that was rightfully his.

What Bibi Dong carried naturally also awakened along with Su Mo's awakening.

Furthermore, because Bibi Dong's martial soul belonged to Su Mo, the spacetime power on Bibi Dong's body was directly devoured and absorbed by Su Mo, becoming Su Mo's own power.

This power is neither attached to the Soul-Hunting Spear nor to Bibi Dong, but directly becomes Su Mo's own power, which Su Mo can use freely without summoning his martial soul.

What Su Mo didn't expect was that awakening this power would actually bring his, Bibi Dong's, and Qian Renxue's souls here.

Bringing him and Bibi Dong here was one thing, but they even brought Qian Renxue along!

"The power of spacetime?"

Hearing Su Mo's words, Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue were slightly relieved, but also extremely shocked.

None of them expected that Su Mo would awaken a new power.

"Little brother Su Mo, have you awakened your third martial soul?"

Qian Renxue looked at Su Mo in shock.

If so, wouldn't Su Mo become a Soul Master with three martial souls?

That's terrifying! Twin martial souls are already so rare, and you've got a triple martial soul.

"No, it's just an attribute power that can't be attached to a spirit ring, so it's not a martial spirit!" Su Mo shook his head and explained.

"That's alright..."

Qian Renxue breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Su Mo's reply.

"Um... that's not what I meant..." Qian Renxue's pretty face immediately flushed slightly as she realized that her answer was not appropriate.

"Haha, I understand, Sister Xue is just too surprised!"

Su Mo laughed heartily, naturally not taking it to heart.

Su Mo couldn't help but glance at Qian Renxue's blushing face, but he quickly looked away.

That's right, Qian Renxue, appearing in spirit form, is no longer in disguise, but in her true form.

"Su Mo, have we somehow traveled back to the future?"

"The name of Spirit City has been changed; it must have been changed after the Spirit Empire and Spirit Hall were destroyed!"

At this moment, Bibi Dong looked at the name of Wuhun City and had already guessed what was going on. Her tone was full of shock.

If that's really the case, it's incredible that she's actually back.

"What? This is the future?"

Qian Renxue was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, and then looked around in surprise.

After a closer look, she realized that the city gate of Wuhun City really looked like it had been through a battle and had only been simply repaired; it wasn't as solemn as she remembered.

"Whether it's true or not, we'll find out when we go in!"

Su Mo was also somewhat surprised by this, and then suggested going in to take a look.

Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong naturally had no objection to this. If this really was the future, they would definitely be very eager to know about the changes after the destruction of the Spirit Empire and the Spirit Hall.

Qian Renxue can also use this to further confirm Bibi Dong's identity.

Afterwards, Su Mo and the other two entered what was formerly Wuhun City, now Tianhun City.

Because Su Mo and the others are in a soul state, the people here cannot see them at all, and Su Mo and the others can observe them at will.

Upon entering Wuhun City, Su Mo discovered that it was completely different from the Wuhun City he had seen when he participated in the Soul Master Competition.

The original Wuhun City was very prosperous and bustling, but now it is much quieter and more dilapidated.

Previously, upon entering Wuhun City, one could see the majestic and imposing Wuhun Hall from afar, but now there is nothing to be seen.

From the conversations of the people there, Su Mo and the others learned that the Spirit Hall had been completely overthrown; the entire building had been demolished and no longer existed.

When Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue arrived at the former site of the Spirit Hall, their expressions were not good as they looked at the collapsed hall.

"Thanks to Lord Sea God! If it weren't for Lord Sea God, the mighty Spirit Hall would never have been defeated!"

"Yes, thanks to Lord Sea God, we were spared from war. After the Spirit Empire was destroyed, peace was restored to the entire continent!"

"Yes, this is also thanks to Lord Sea God. It is said that Lord Sea God forbade the Heavenly Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire from starting another war..."

"Yes, that's the legend!"

"Anyway, before the Sea God ascends to the realm of gods, we will never have to worry about war again!"

"..."

At this moment, a group of merchants arrived at the former site of the Spirit Hall. Looking at the collapsed Spirit Hall, they began to praise Tang San, the God of the Sea.

They were praising Tang San, the Sea God, but Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue's expressions were extremely ugly upon hearing this.

"Did we really make a mistake back then?"

Especially Bibi Dong, looking at the smiles on those people's faces, really doubted whether she had made a mistake back then.

She admitted that she had her own ambitions, but she believed that her initial vow to unify the continent was the right thing to do.

But the various opinions she hears now inevitably make her doubt herself.

Or rather, from the moment of her failure and tragic death, she began to deny herself, because it was wrong that led to her final failure.

"Was Tang San the one who did the right thing?"

Qian Renxue also made a somewhat doubtful sound.

"No, that's not true!"

Seeing the expressions on Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue's faces, Su Mo immediately smiled and said.

Upon hearing Su Mo's words, Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue immediately looked at Su Mo.

"Tang San did indeed forbid the two great empires from launching attacks and starting another war, allowing the people to recuperate. However, Tang San only stipulated that the two empires would not wage war again for ten years; after that, he stopped interfering!"

"It seems the fighting hasn't started yet, so it should be less than ten years before the Spirit Hall is destroyed!"

"Tang San did this only out of consideration for Xue Beng and Dai Mubai!"

"One is his disciple, and the other is a prince of the Star Luo Empire. If it weren't for that, Tang San wouldn't have stopped the two empires at all, because these things have nothing to do with him. He's only fighting the Spirit Hall for revenge!"

"Furthermore, Tang San knew that even as the Sea God, he couldn't prevent the two great empires from coexisting peacefully forever, so they only made a ten-year agreement!"

"Therefore, the Spirit Hall's actions in unifying the continent were not wrong. Only by unifying the Douluo Continent can it truly bring lasting peace!"

"The simultaneous existence of two great empires will only lead to constant attacks and endless wars, just like before!"

Su Mo then revealed the truth.

In the original novel, Tang San did indeed only order the two great empires to refrain from fighting each other for ten years.

Why only ten years? Tang San probably thought that after ten years, he would be able to ascend to the God Realm, so he didn't need to worry about it anymore.

After hearing Su Mo say this, Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue suddenly realized.

It turns out that the current appearance of peace is only temporary.

It was Tang San who used his immense prestige to force the two great empires to cease hostilities.

After that, Su Mo and the other two visited many more places.

I also gradually learned from conversations with other people that the Martial Soul Empire had been destroyed five years ago!

Five years... a time flow rate of three to one.

Su Mo's heart stirred secretly.

After his soul arrived here, Su Mo understood that he had transmigrated into a parallel world of Douluo Continent.

Or rather, it was his intrusion that created this parallel world.

The world that Bibi Dong experienced is still in operation; both worlds exist.

The only difference is the flow of time between the two worlds.

hum-

Half a day later, Su Mo experienced a strange tremor.

"My spacetime powers are almost exhausted. We should go back. If we stay here any longer, we might not be able to return!"

After sensing it for a moment, Su Mo quickly spoke to Bibi Dong and her daughter Qian Renxue.

"Okay, let's go back quickly then!"

Upon hearing Su Mo's words, Bibi Dong quickly replied.

Although she didn't know much about the situation, she was already certain that this was indeed her original future.

"Okay, let's go back!"

Qian Renxue also spoke up.

After this experience, she completely trusted Su Mo and Bibi Dong, and no longer had any doubts.

hum-

Su Mo didn't delay any longer. With a slight movement of his spacetime energy, the figures of Su Mo and the other two disappeared from this spacetime.

When Su Mo's consciousness returned, he found himself back in his own body, back in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

After regaining consciousness, Qian Renxue quickly returned to her place.

She arrived in high spirits, but left with a jumbled mess of thoughts.

The main reason she was somewhat bewildered was the experience of her soul traveling to the future.

This experience made her completely trust Su Mo and Bibi Dong, but it also filled her with mixed feelings, making her feel that she needed to calm down and process it properly.

"Su Mo, even if we change the present, it won't have any impact on the future, right?"

"The future I experienced is still unfolding, and Xiaoxue's divine status remains shattered, forever unable to break through, right?"

"What's going on? How can two worlds exist simultaneously?"

"Is Qian Renxue here still my daughter?"

After Qian Renxue left, Bibi Dong asked Su Mo with a complicated expression.

Qian Renxue felt complicated, and she felt even more so.

She originally thought that since she had been reborn, there should be no future left. However, this experience made her realize that even if she returned, the world she originally lived in would not change.

So Bibi Dong couldn't help but overthink things, and even came to the idea that Qian Renxue here was not actually her daughter, but the future Qian Renxue who had shattered her divine status was her daughter.

So for a moment, Bibi Dong was filled with dejection. Even if she changed the world now, she couldn't change the world she used to live in.

Does everything she did have any meaning?

What is the meaning of her existence?

"Sister Rakshasa, Qian Renxue is of course your daughter!"

"Whether it's the present Qian Renxue or the future Qian Renxue, they are both your daughters, just in different timelines!"

"But no matter what, there's no mistake that they're all your daughters!"

Su Mo quickly comforted Bibi Dong.

Su Mo couldn't answer Bibi Dong's question, as it involved parallel worlds and timelines, which Su Mo couldn't explain.

It's definitely true that Qian Renxue here is Bibi Dong's daughter.

But it seems that it wouldn't be wrong to say that she wasn't actually Bibi Dong's daughter.

In any case, Su Mo couldn't explain it.

But he couldn't let Bibi Dong become depressed, so it had to be, and Su Mo's explanation was perfectly fine.

"You're right, they are all my daughters!"

Upon hearing Su Mo's words, Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes widened in surprise, and she nodded in agreement.

"But... even if I can change Xiaoxue's fate now, I can't save Xiaoxue in the future..."

But soon, Bibi Dong said with great heartache.

Bibi Dong had her own judgment on this point, because Su Mo had already changed everything about the Soul Master Competition and Tang San's experiences.

But nothing has changed in the future, so she knows very well that the changes here will not affect the changes in the future.

In the end, she still died, and Qian Renxue's divine status was shattered.

Upon hearing Bibi Dong's words, Su Mo fell silent for a moment.

He really didn't know how to answer Bibi Dong's question.

Because Bibi Dong has already witnessed firsthand that the future timeline she originally lived in has remained unchanged.

"No, Sister Rakshasa, we are not without ways to save the future Qian Renxue!"

However, Su Mo's expression quickly changed, and he then spoke to Bibi Dong.

"What? You have a way? What way?"

Bibi Dong quickly looked at Su Mo.

"Sister Rakshasa, you haven't forgotten the spacetime power I just awakened, have you?"

"Since it can lead our souls back to the past, then once I become powerful enough to fully control this power, it's entirely possible that our true bodies could travel back together!"

"That way, we can find a way to repair Qian Renxue's damaged divine status and restore her to her divine position!"

Su Mo said with a smile.

Since he can't change the original timeline where Bibi Dong was, then there's no need to change it. As long as he fully masters the power of time and space and can travel back in time, that's enough.

Then, we can directly help the future Qian Renxue repair her divine status and restore her divine position.

Of course, all of this is based on her being strong enough.

Because if that happens, he might have to face the future Sea God Tang San.

Therefore, Su Mo would definitely not dare to act recklessly before he has sufficient strength.

Su Mo can easily manipulate Tang San now, but he won't be able to control the future Sea God Tang San.

That was Tang San, who had truly obtained dual godhood.
