Douluo: Son of Destruction of Life, Supreme Creator!

The immense energy was enough to propel him towards level 30.

"However, after years of accumulating experience, it's normal for my cultivation to be faster now."

Although Gu Linyuan's cultivation level has not broken through in recent years, his physical strength has visibly improved.

After all, with the forces of life and destruction constantly tearing and reshaping his body, it would be strange if he weren't strong.

Now that he has absorbed a thousand-year soul ring and a ten-thousand-year soul ring, and also possesses the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear Paw Bone, a standard accessory for strong individuals, it is only natural that his cultivation level will increase further.

"If nothing unexpected happens, I should be able to break through to the Soul Master level in two or three months."

"However, the rapid pace of cultivation is indeed likely to create hidden dangers for my future cultivation. If I want to solidify my foundation, conventional cultivation methods will not work."

"Let's go to the Soul Arena for some training during this time."

Gu Linyuan took a deep breath.

The Soul Arena is indeed a place where one can quickly stabilize their cultivation.

Real-world practice is always the most practical and unpretentious method of self-cultivation.

With the life essence protecting him, he can attack at will without worrying about any hidden injuries from the battle.

……

Wuhun Temple.

After leaving the Soul Hunter Forest, Qian Renxue did not return to Heaven Dou City, but went straight to Martial Soul City.

She wanted to ask her grandfather to find out who that woman really was.

Qian Renxue told Qian Daoliu everything that had happened before.

"Xue'er, is what you're saying true? You really met a god from the realm of gods?"

Qian Daoliu's cloudy eyes cleared instantly, and he asked incredulously.

"Ah."

“Then you must have encountered the Goddess of Life.” Based on Qian Renxue’s description, Qian Daoliu quickly identified the Goddess of Life.

After all, there are only two goddesses in the entire divine realm with such power. And there is only one god who holds the power over life.

"Grandpa, are you willing to tell me something about the God Realm now? What is the Goddess of Life's rank in the God Realm?" Qian Renxue asked curiously, looking at her grandfather with her beautiful eyes. Could it be that Gu Linyuan's parents were truly God Kings?

"Actually, I know quite a bit about the God Realm. It's just that after the City of Slaughter appeared, our Qian family elders inquired about the origins of the City of Slaughter from the Angel God. That's how we learned about the Asura God and the other four Great God Kings..."

"The Goddess of Life, who embodies creation and life, is the most revered God-King. The God of Destruction, who embodies destruction, is the most powerful God-King in the divine realm, even surpassing the Asura God. The Goddess of Life and the God of Destruction are in love; if Gu Linyuan is the child of the Goddess of Life, then he is also the offspring of the God of Destruction..."

Gu Linyuan's mother, the Goddess of Life, is the most respected goddess who governs life!

His father, the God of Destruction, was the ruler of the divine realm and the most powerful god!

What kind of extraordinary background is this?

If Gu Linyuan is so powerful, why is he coming down to the mortal realm?

If any woman were to actually get together with this guy, it wouldn't be difficult for his parents to arrange a first-level divine position for her, right? And she could probably even choose whichever divine position she wanted herself.

The thought that some people could obtain the divine position they had sought all their lives with a single gesture suddenly made them feel numb.

"Xue'er, you must befriend him. With his help, your chances of inheriting the angelic throne will increase infinitely."

"Moreover, if you truly become the new Angel God in the future, and you befriend Gu Linyuan, you will have connections in the God Realm."

Qian Daoliu took a deep breath.

He had previously estimated that Qian Renxue's chances of inheriting the position of the Angel God were only around 10%. Qian Renxue's talent was indeed high, but throughout history, none of the many geniuses from the Qian family had ever succeeded.

But if Gu Linyuan were to help, it would be almost a done deal.

However, it depends on the situation. If you're just a casual friend of Gu Linyuan, your chances of becoming a god increase by about 10-20%. If you become close friends, you're about 50% certain. If you develop a romantic relationship with Gu Linyuan, it's almost a certainty.

If Xue'er were to meet the Goddess of Life with a large pregnant belly, she would surely be granted a divine position for the sake of her grandson.

This is not just a shortcut, it's a direct path to heaven!

However, Qian Daoliu couldn't say these things outright. As her grandfather, he could only offer subtle reminders, hoping that Xue'er wouldn't do anything foolish.

"Grandpa, I understand."

Qian Renxue gently stroked her heaving chest with her jade-like hand and whispered.

She knew her heart was in turmoil.

She's such a wicked woman, actually wanting to do that kind of thing for a divine position...

Chapter 12: Hidden Dragon in the Abyss, Fame Spreads Throughout Soto City, Shrek's Main Characters Arrive

A week later.

Soto.

Gu Linyuan stood in front of the Soul Arena gate, raised his head, and looked at the ten-meter-high iron-gray gate.

His black robe fluttered gently in the evening breeze. The hood covered most of his face, revealing only his sharply defined chin.

Is this the place?

Improving one's cultivation level is just the beginning.

He needs real-world experience.

The Great Soul Arena is the best real-world battleground on the continent, bar none.

Throughout the entire continent, there are only three places that can meet his needs: the Great Soul Arena in Soto City, Heaven Dou City, and Spirit City.

The overall level of the Soto City Arena is far inferior to the other two places, but it has the monsters that the main characters encounter.

Tang San, Dai Mubai...

He was genuinely curious about the level of talent these main characters had reached.

"Tang San, Dai Mubai... I hope you won't disappoint me."

Gu Linyuan walked to the registration area, a hint of barely concealed excitement flashing in his eyes. Perhaps every male body possesses fighting genes, which can be activated in a specific place, and the Soul Arena is such a place.

All that's needed is to verify the soul power level.

"Do you need to give yourself a fighting spirit title?"

The staff handed over the finished Iron-grade Battle Spirit Badge and then asked...

"Let's call it Longyuan (Dragon Abyss) because the dragon is hidden in the abyss."

Gu Linyuan took the badge and thought for a moment.

"Longyuan?" the staff member confirmed.

"Ah."

Gu Linyuan turned and left.

The hem of a black robe flashed past the doorway and disappeared at the end of the corridor.

……

7 PM, Soto City Grand Arena.

The crowd was full of people.

The circular arena was packed with thousands of seats.

The cheers, shouts, and curses of the audience mingled together, creating a deafening sound wave.

The air was thick with the smell of sweat, and a kind of frenzied energy that could only be felt in a gladiatorial arena.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Soto City Grand Arena!"

The host's voice resonated throughout the venue, carrying a professional and passionate tone.

"The first one-on-one soul battle of the night is about to begin!"

"Red team's level 27 Great Soul Master, Martial Soul Blood Leopard, title Leopard King, record: three wins and one loss!"

Cheers erupted.

A burly man, shirtless and covered in scars, walked out from the left passage and strode onto the Soul Battle Platform.

He clenched his fists, roared at the audience, revealing two rows of teeth stained yellow by smoke.

"Black side, level 27 Great Soul Master, Martial Soul Staff, Name: Dragon Abyss, Battle Record: First Battle!"

This time, the cheers were noticeably quieter.

He's a newcomer, there's nothing to celebrate. Hopefully, he won't be too badly treated.

Gu Linyuan emerged from the right-hand passage, his black robe standing out starkly under the lights. His hood still concealed his face, making him appear like a walking shadow.

He stepped onto the Soul Battle Platform and stood ten steps away from the Leopard King.

The host raised his right hand and then swung it down sharply.

"The battle begins!"

The Leopard King released his martial spirit immediately.

Blood Leopard, a beast spirit. His body swelled up the instant the spirit was activated, blood-red fur grew on his arms, and his ten fingers transformed into sharp beast claws.

Two yellow, century-old soul rings lit up around him, emitting a faint glow.

"Kid, newbie, huh?" Leopard King licked his lips, revealing a ferocious smile. "You're unlucky to run into me in your first match."

Before he finished speaking, he shot out like an arrow released from a bow.

His speed increased dramatically in an instant, covering a distance of ten meters almost instantly, and his five sharp claws aimed straight for Gu Linyuan's throat.

Quick, accurate, ruthless.

This is the style of the Grand Arena.

There were no fancy probing moves; the killing blow came straight at them.

Gu Linyuan did not move.

He stood still, without even releasing his martial spirit.
