Gu Rong dared not investigate further, nor did he dare tell anyone about it.

Including Ning Fengzhi.

He knew all too well what kind of bloodshed would ensue if other forces on the continent learned of a child who might come from the realm of gods.

The Spirit Hall, the Three Upper Sects, the royal families of the two great empires... no one would let such an existence go unpunished.

So he kept it a secret, keeping it buried in his heart for twelve years.

Even though Gu Linyuan's cultivation had stagnated since he awakened his martial soul, Gu Rong knew that this child would eventually shine with his own brilliance.

Gu Rong sighed inwardly as she thought about what Ning Fengzhi and Ning Rongrong had done.

He had watched Rongrong and Linyuan grow up, so he would naturally be happy to see them together.

"Perhaps Rongrong really doesn't have that kind of luck."

The ancient banyan tree sighed.

He didn't even dare to think about it.

If Rongrong and Linyuan really get together.

If Lin Yuan's parents come looking for her later, wouldn't Rong Rong also have a chance to enter the realm of gods?

Fengzhi was still too hasty.

……

"So I'm actually the biological child of the Goddess of Life and the God of Destruction?"

Amidst the chaos, Gu Linyuan's consciousness gradually became clear.

Since coming into this world, he has been full of curiosity about his mysterious origins and has asked Gu Rong a lot about his background.

But he never expected that he was actually the son of two god-kings.

The goddess of life and the god of destruction are the two oldest gods who have existed since the beginning of the divine realm.

The two represent two of the most fundamental and extreme opposing laws in the universe. This also means that the goddess of life and the god of destruction are fundamentally incapable of producing offspring. The source of destruction, powerful enough to destroy everything, can annihilate all life, including detached primordial larvae and egg cells.

In the original novel, the God of Destruction in the God Realm took a special liking to Tang San's daughter, Tang Wutong, and had always hoped to have his own child, but his wish had never come true.

For the God of Destruction, the source of destruction is both an incredibly powerful force and an unbreakable curse.

"Life and destruction are the most extreme opposites, which led to the two god-kings loving each other but being unable to have offspring."

"But there are always exceptions..."

"When the divine realm encountered a great crisis of spacetime turbulence, the two chose to merge the power of life and the power of destruction, transforming it into the power of creation to resist the disaster. It was this power of creation after fusion that broke through all limitations."

Gu Linyuan murmured.

The goddess of life and the god of destruction never imagined that they would receive their own flesh and blood in such a way.

However, the God of Destruction was originally a drop of condensed destructive liquid in the universe, while the Goddess of Life was a sapling that grew from the condensed destructive liquid.

The two are not mutually exclusive. However, as their cultivation levels increase, the repulsion between their attributes becomes more and more intense.

With the arrival of the spacetime turbulence, both God-Kings relinquished their power to protect the divine realm and help it overcome the crisis. Having lost most of their power, the two God-Kings ironically found themselves with an opportunity to reunite.

"I see..."

"In order to take revenge on Tang San, he chose to use the power of time reversal to send me back to the time when Tang San grew up. This does seem like something the God of Destruction would do."

Knowing that his child with the Goddess of Life would be destroyed by Tang San if exposed, the God of Destruction simply used the power of time reversal.

Spacetime turbulence, reversing time and space.

The newly born Gu Linyuan was transported through time and space by reversal, traversing tens of thousands of years and countless dimensions, and arrived in the Douluo Continent.

Due to the suddenness of the event, the two god-kings had no time to bestow blessings upon Gu Linyuan.

This also led to Gu Linyuan suffering from the backlash of these two extreme powers after inheriting them, which is why Gu Linyuan has failed to break through in recent years.

Life and destruction are the most supreme forces in the world.

When the two merge, that is the power of creation.

This level of power is something that heaven and earth cannot tolerate.

If there is a Heavenly Dao in this world, then the creative power that combines life and destruction is probably already infinitely close to the Heavenly Dao.

"Dragons do not dwell with snakes."

"Perhaps that is true. However, the roles of the dragon and the snake may need to be reversed."

Gu Linyuan murmured, feeling the surging power within his body.

Chapter 3 The roc rises with the wind, soaring ninety thousand miles high.

"grandfather."

In mid-air, Gu Linyuan slowly descended.

The strange phenomena surrounding him had subsided, and the Ancient Tree of Life and the Scepter of Destruction had returned to his body.

But his temperament has completely changed.

It was a confidence and sharpness that emanated from the very core of the being, like a dusty sword finally revealing its edge.

He walked up to the ancient banyan tree and knelt on one knee.

"I am very grateful to my grandfather for raising me all these years."

Gu Rong was startled and quickly reached out to help him.

"Get up, get up quickly. Lin Yuan, you are a god, how can you kneel before a mortal like me?"

Gu Rong quickly replied.

He might have been somewhat unsure before.

But what he saw today completely confirmed Gu Linyuan's identity as the Divine Child.

"Do not."

Gu Linyuan did not get up. He raised his head, his gaze firm and sincere.

“Before you, I am not some divine child. I am just the child you picked up from the rainstorm.”

"You gave me a second life, and you protected me for twelve years."

"I will never forget this kindness."

Gu Rong's hand froze in mid-air, and two streams of tears finally slid down his old eyes.

He opened his mouth, as if to say something, but found that his throat felt like it was blocked by something.

In the end, he simply reached out and gently patted Gu Linyuan's shoulder.

That withered hand, steady as if supporting the weight of an era.

After a long while, Gu Rong composed himself.

"Lin Yuan, although your cultivation has broken through, this matter cannot be made public yet."

"Otherwise, it will cause you a lot of trouble. You are a divine child and should not be too disturbed by worldly fame and fortune."

Gu Rong has kept Gu Linyuan's identity a secret all these years in the hope that he won't be morally blackmailed.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had shown him kindness, and Gu Rong was willing to protect the school for life.

But Gu Linyuan doesn't have to go through that. He can have a wider world and choose his own way of life. Once Ning Fengzhi finds out his identity, Gu Linyuan will live a life of scheming.

Ning Fengzhi is the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. As an auxiliary sect, only through cunning can the sect's development be stabilized; this is the Ning family's way of survival. He has a good relationship with Ning Fengzhi, but he is unwilling to let Gu Linyuan, whom he watched grow up, be schemed against.

Although Gu Linyuan called him "Grandpa," he never dared to act arrogantly because of that status.

Behind Gu Linyuan stood two gods, and they were probably even more powerful than the Angel God.

He was just lucky to have found it in the Star Dou Great Forest and raised it.

"I see."

Gu Linyuan nodded.

He knew that once his identity was exposed, not only the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but even the Spirit Hall would have to grovel before him.

The Angel God enshrined by the Spirit Hall is only a first-level god in the God Realm, how can he be compared with the God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life?

The Angel God is to the Goddess of Life what Chrysanthemum Douluo is to Bibi Dong—a vast difference in their status.

"Actually, I've been waiting for this day all these years."

Gu Rong looked at the spirited young man in mid-air, her voice trembling slightly.

Twelve years.

More than four thousand days and nights.

He watched the child grow up day by day, watched him be the center of attention when he awakened his twin martial souls, watched him suffer scorn and cold treatment when his cultivation stagnated, and watched his silent back when Ning Rongrong abandoned him.

Every time, he wanted to stand up.

I want to tell everyone that this child is not a waste.

I want to tell Ning Fengzhi that the child you abandoned is more precious than anyone you've ever met.

But he didn't.

Because he knew that some things had to be proven by Gu Linyuan himself. That would also be the process of his transformation.

Only when a fledgling eagle hatches from its shell can it soar through the heavens.

Gu Rong looked at the boy in front of her and suddenly smiled.

That smile held a mixture of relief, pride, and a hint of heartache.

This child, despite possessing a god-level martial soul and having unparalleled potential, had to learn to be patient, to pretend, and to lie low in the darkness at the age when he should have been full of vigor.

He paused, then said, "But there's something I need to ask you."

"Please speak."

Gu Rong's gaze deepened as he looked towards the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in the distance, at the brightly lit main hall.
