Early morning. The sun was gently rising, and the three of them landed on an open space far from the Star Dou Forest.
After absorbing the spirit ring and taking a nap on his father's back, Minghui was naturally wide awake. After sitting down for breakfast, he noticed his teacher, Poison Douluo, looking over. He immediately perked up and vividly recounted the details of his dream involving two deities.
Could my disciple be the reincarnation of a deity? Poison Douluo couldn't help but reassess him, his gaze shifting.
The heat was intense.
If that's the case, doesn't that mean he has the potential to teach a god?
Just like how Yu Xiaogang taught the Sea God Tang San a thousand years ago.
In terms of talent, isn't my disciple a twin martial soul? Not inferior to Tang San back then. As for teaching ability, he's certainly not worse than Yu Xiaogang, who had innate soul power of only 0.5 and was stuck at level 29 for years!
Thinking of this, Poison Douluo's confidence soared, and his heart burned with excitement.
"Brother Du," Mingchen began, "I must inform you that our Qingya Sect has decided to erect a statue to honor this Life Goddess."
He also mentioned that they had sent someone to the Sun Moon Empire to purchase an image projector.
"By the time we return to the sect, the items should be arriving."
"Hui's matter is my responsibility as a teacher. When we return, make sure to get one for me too!" Poison Douluo declared solemnly.
If his disciple truly was the reincarnation of a deity, why would he reincarnate? And why into this world?
To experience the world and spread faith!
This was his first thought.
Having roamed the continent for so long, he'd never heard of anyone worshipping the Life Goddess, nor had he even heard of this deity. However, the gods taught by Shrek Academy a thousand years ago were still renowned.
So, it's most likely that the two deities his disciple dreamt of have also set their sights on this world.
As for the relationship between these two deities and his disciple...
Honestly, he suspected they might be his disciple's parents before reincarnation. After all, these two deities were a married couple!
If that's the case, everything makes sense!
"Regardless, this is an opportunity!" Poison Douluo's eyes gleamed, and his heart was elated.
Shrek Academy became famous worldwide because it produced seven gods a thousand years ago. Since Shrek Academy could do it, why can't my sect do the same?
I, Poison Douluo, will also teach a god!
Although he didn't know what his teacher was thinking, Minghui felt that he was becoming a bit obsessed. Looking at Poison Douluo's fiery gaze, he thought.
But isn't this exactly what I want?
My sect has many high-end combat powers, and the quality of the faith power generated should be higher.
This should attract the Life Goddess's attention, right?
The original text clearly mentions that the divine realm is formed by the collective will of all beings.
And this willpower, in his view, should be stronger when produced by beings with higher cultivation and stronger spiritual power.
"Since that's the case, Brother Du, why don't you come with me to Qingya Sect first?" Mingchen smiled. "This way, before Hui goes to your sect, my wife can accompany him more."
"Then I shall trouble you," Poison Douluo also smiled.
A young child was about to travel far; as a parent, he naturally wanted to spend more time with him. He couldn't refuse, both emotionally and logically.
Minghui felt ignored again. Young children are like this; they have no say in front of their elders.
"Sigh," he sighed, packed his things, and followed the two elders on their journey.
A few days later, they arrived at Qingya Sect smoothly.
After some casual chatting, Qingya took out the image projector and had her son simulate the Life Goddess. While experiencing the unique life aura, they used the projector to create a likeness.
As for more, they could copy more when needed.
"Hui, simulate the other one as well," Qingya pondered. "It's good to have a copy."
One could choose not to worship, but not having an image was also a form of disrespect to the deity. Having at least one could show attitude; it's not that they refused to worship, but felt it was impolite without an image, so they didn't erect a statue.
Additionally, she wanted to see if her son could simulate the aura of the other deity.
Although she couldn't understand that aura, she felt it was definitely a power beyond soul power, likely related to divine power. Not understanding it now doesn't mean she won't in the future. Once reaching a certain level, these personal experiences might aid in future cultivation.
Poison Douluo also thought of this and nodded slightly. "Makes sense."
Having no say, Minghui said nothing. He activated his simulation soul skill and closed his eyes, recalling the aura of the God of Destruction.
Currently, he still couldn't simulate it with his eyes open. The surrounding scenery and the fact that someone was watching made it hard for him to concentrate.
My skin's still not thick enough!
Far from Tang San, need to work harder.
Soon, a tall figure appeared beside him. Dressed in a purple cloak, the face was obscured, but two red lights faintly flickered in the dimness.
"This, at first glance, is formidable!" Looking at the red light, Poison Douluo's heart skipped a beat, secretly alarmed.
The next moment, a terrifying aura suddenly emanated.
The three elders' expressions changed, their hairs stood on end, every strand warning them, and they instinctively took a step back.
"This is the Destruction attribute!" Poison Douluo stabilized his mind first and spoke solemnly. "The royal family of the Sun Moon Empire occasionally inherits a beast martial soul called the Purple Radiance Destruction Dragon, whose attribute is destruction. I've felt it more than once; I wouldn't mistake it."
"However, the feeling it gives me is completely different, almost like night and day, even though that person was already a titled Douluo."
If he hadn't known in advance that this was a simulated aura, he might have turned and fled upon sensing it.
Although the aura simulated by his disciple was weak, with his cultivation and spiritual perception, he was highly sensitive to danger. Therefore, as soon as this aura emerged, he felt an extreme sense of danger, as if facing it meant certain death.
Suddenly, he felt that his disciple's simulation soul skill was the most profitable. With this aura, even fierce beasts would avoid it.
Without prior knowledge, he would definitely keep his distance upon sensing it.
"So, this deity governs destruction?" Mingchen followed up.
A deity of destruction and a deity of life as a couple—what kind of combination is this? Both elders were puzzled.
Completely opposing attributes; can they have children? And their attributes don't match, right?
They couldn't help but glance at their own child.
