Chapter 263 The God-Making Plan.
Wang Xiaofei looked at his two children, feeling a sense of relief. Regardless of their progress or increase in soul power, at least they were reasonable in their conduct and wouldn't be manipulated by others.
Since becoming a god, Wang Xiaofei felt his personality had changed drastically. Previously, he disliked fighting, preferred solitude and quiet, and hated bloodshed and killing.
But since becoming a god, he seemed indifferent to life, ruthlessly killing anyone who dared to defy him, whether in Wuhun City or Xingluo City.
Even the Douluo Alliance's policies showed no mercy to criminals, either killing them outright or sending them to the Killing Capital. This was somewhat similar to the Legalist school of the Qin Dynasty, which governed the world with harsh laws and severe punishments.
However, since planting the Golden Ancient Tree, his mindset seemed to have changed significantly. Witnessing the Golden Ancient Tree grow from a seed into a towering tree, from nothingness to existence, seemed like witnessing the growth and transformation of life itself.
At this point, Wang Xiaofei gradually began to comprehend the power of life and sense the transformation of Douluo Star from a desolate, uninhabited planet into a thriving community of life, then into a world of countless races competing for dominance, and finally into a world dominated by humanity—this was the power of creation.
Wang Xiaofei had now grasped a trace of the power of life, a trace of the power of creation, a trace of the power of slaughter, and a trace of the power of destruction, but all of these were too few. These powers could only support Wang Xiaofei to the peak of level 149, but they couldn't allow him to truly transform and reach the realm of a God-King.
To truly break through, he would likely need to find new power or a new source.
But before that, he needed to cultivate his foundation; at least the home base of Douluo Star couldn't be lost.
Wang Xiaofei decided to select some people to train, to cultivate them into gods, to make them the native gods of Douluo Star.
But these people had to be completely reliable, at least they wouldn't betray him. If he accidentally cultivated a few enemies, it would be troublesome.
After thinking for a while, Wang Xiaofei went directly to the palace in Phoenix City and summoned Yang Wudi and Huo Tianchen, inviting them to discuss something.
Yang Wudi and Huo Tianchen were Wang Xiaofei's most trusted confidants, both having provided him with immense help. Huo Tianchen had practically watched Wang Xiaofei grow step by step, protecting him during his early years.
Yang Wudi had also been a great help, resolving Wang Xiaofei's difficulties whenever he encountered them. In a sense, the two were close friends despite their age difference, truly confidants of Wang Xiaofei.
When Huo Tianchen and Yang Wudi arrived at the palace, they were both speechless. Wang Xiaofei had barely lived in the palace since its construction; what use was it to him?
Of course, they were also puzzled. Normally, Wang Xiaofei wouldn't be able to find anyone unless it was something important. His sudden summons of both of them suggested he had something significant to discuss.
Wang Xiaofei looked at the two men, hesitated for a long time before speaking, "Grandpa Huo, Senior Yang, there's something big I've been struggling with lately, and I'd like you two to help me understand it."
Huo Tianchen was speechless for a moment, "Xiaofei, you're a god now. If you don't understand something, asking us won't be of much use, will it?"
Wang Xiaofei shook his head, "Although I'm already a god, taking another step forward is almost impossible. Recently, I've been planning to leave Douluo Star to pursue greater power and seek a breakthrough."
"But I'm worried about Douluo Star. As you know, Tang San has been plotting against Douluo Star since becoming a god. The gods of the Holy Realm and even the God Realm, as well as the Soul Beast Lord of the Star Dou Great Forest, are also scheming against our human race. I'm really worried about leaving."
"So I've thought about it for a long time and decided to train some people to become gods, but I'm still a bit conflicted about the selection and training methods."
Yang Wudi was a little puzzled: "Xiaofei, you've already become a god, where do you plan to go?"
Wang Xiaofei thought for a while before speaking: "In the starry sky, in the power of chaos, there is even stronger power."
"How long will you be gone?"
"I don't know the exact time, it could be several hundred years, or tens of thousands of years. I'm still a little worried about the entire Douluo Star, so I want to train a group of people first before leaving."
Dean Huo Tianchen's expression was a little solemn: "Xiaofei, have you already made up your mind? Do you really have to leave?"
Wang Xiaofei nodded: "I have to go. On Douluo Star, I can't complete my final breakthrough. Ten thousand years later, Tang San will probably become a true Asura, that is, reach the realm of a God King, so I need to become stronger."
"You've always been decisive, and once you've made a decision, it can't be changed. Now, is there anything we can help you with?"
"I want to confirm who is worthy of our training, who is worthy of my training to become a god. These people must be absolutely reliable and must assist me in maintaining the stability of Douluo Star. Ideally, they should already have reached the Title Douluo realm. I estimate I will stay on Douluo Star for about fifty more years, not too long."
The two seemed to understand Wang Xiaofei's attitude. Now, the only thing to confirm was the number of people to be trained and the list of personnel.
The first to be chosen were naturally the direct descendants of the Elemental Academy, mainly including several deans and their friends.
Key personnel included: Huo Tianchen, Huo Lie, Yang Wudi, Niu Gao, Liu Yan, and Feng Xuan. These were also some of the original leaders of the Elemental Academy.
Next were Wang Xiaofei's friends, including Feng Xiaotian, Huo Wushuang, Niu Meng, and Yang Pojun. As for Huo Wu and Shui Bing'er, there were other arrangements. Both were successors of gods and could inherit the godhood of the Ice God and the Fire God, respectively.
Next were some people within the Douluo Federation who had made great contributions to the Douluo Federation government. The most important were Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, who were also from the Elemental Academy and were considered direct descendants.
Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue were already gods, and both possessed divine artifacts in Wang Xiaofei's possession. Wang Xiaofei had promised to help them, so they were included first.
As for the other personnel of the Douluo Federation government, Huo Tianchen and Yang Wudi needed to confirm them. Ideally, they shouldn't be too old or should have considerable potential; otherwise, there was no need to train them.
Yang Wudi and Huo Tianchen considered for a moment, and after some debate, came up with a small list including Golden Crocodile Douluo, Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, Azure Phoenix Douluo, Light Feather Douluo, and Sea Dragon Douluo.
As for the others, they could be casually trained to become the backbone of the Douluo Federation government; becoming gods was out of the question.
