Chapter 148 Considerations for Becoming a God, You Chen’s Ambition
In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.
After the martial soul evolves and the physical body breaks through, one's strength directly leaps from the threshold of Titled Douluo to the Super Douluo level.
Even You Chen spent half a year to sort out his own strength.
As his strength increases, a question naturally arises in Youchen's mind.
Become a god.
This is a question that almost everyone who travels to Douluo Continent will consider.
In fact, You Chen also started to consider this issue a long time ago.
There are two well-known paths to becoming a god.
First, inherit the divine throne.
Second, rely on the power of faith or the power of sentient beings to gather the new divine position.
Inheriting the divine throne... Nowadays, the divine thrones that can be found and inherited on the Douluo Continent are the Shura God and the Poseidon God.
If you want to inherit other divine positions, you can basically only get involved in the divine examination and attract the attention of the gods in the divine world. Just like in the original work, Tang San alone achieved the situation of chickens and dogs ascending to heaven, and his whole family and friends ascended to heaven.
However, if he really does a great deed that shakes the continent and shows any potential that can attract the gods, You Chen is not sure whether he will attract the gods.
As for other divine test locations, such as the inheritance place of the Ice God, after spending so much effort to find this inheritance place that has been lost for countless years, You Chen really feels that it is better to take the second path directly.
Therefore, if you really want to become a god by inheriting the divine position, you probably cannot avoid the divine test of these two major divine positions.
After this period of silent cultivation and studying the original power of his own martial soul, You Chen has basically rejected this possibility.
Basically, there is no conflict between the divine position and the soul master.
Just like Tang San, a guy with grass and a hammer, can inherit the throne of Poseidon and Shura God.
However, this basically means that there are exceptions.
For example, Qian Renxue, there is an obvious conflict between her angelic realm and the killing realm given by God Shura.
Unless Qian Renxue chooses to give up her martial spirit, there is no way she can inherit the throne of Shura.
The realm is dominated by the ultimate power of purification, and You Chen, who has a sacrificial sanctuary that is very similar to the angel realm, is obviously not suitable for this position.
It would be very suitable if his spirit was not the Stardust Dragon, but the Red Lotus Demonic Dragon of Fudo Yusei's good friend Jack.
You Chen has the belief that he is a strong man, and there is absolutely no way that he would choose to abandon the martial soul power that can be said to be the essence of his life's achievements for the sake of an unsuitable Shura God position!
Next is Poseidon.
There is no doubt... You Chen hates Poseidon very much.
Not just because this sacred position is a symbol of Tang San's "ice and purity".
It's even more because of Poseidon himself...
In order to reflect Tang San's popularity, the original work specially wrote a scene where Shura God and Poseidon took advantage of the loopholes in the rules of the God Realm in order to snatch Tang San as his successor. .
But even if he takes advantage of the same loophole, Poseidon is obviously more disgusting.
Especially because this guy deliberately staged a public execution when Qian Renxue succeeded to the throne, exposing Qian Renxue’s privacy directly to the eyes of the entire mainland...
Even if Such a thing has not happened in this time and space. As Qian Renxue's teacher, You Chen still feels very disgusted.
This god feels very despicable and vulgar. He really looks a bit like the old pervert with the same name in a certain Greek mythology.
You Chen really wants to teach Qian Renxue a lesson, but if others want to bully his bad apprentice, that's another matter!
Of course, only he himself can teach his own apprentice!
You Chen will never accept Poseidon’s vicious and disgusting methods.
So even though he has not yet met Poseidon face to face, You Chen has silently regarded him as an imaginary enemy in his heart.
You Chen felt a little unhappy when he thought that if he inherited the throne of Poseidon, he would completely fulfill the wishes of Poseidon and satisfy his desire to be free from the shackles of the throne and live freely.
He has no interest at all in the position of Poseidon.
Of course, the most important thing is that You Chen himself does not want to ascend to the divine realm.
The original work makes it very clear. Except for a few outliers like Tang San who want to hold the power of the entire divine world in their hands, most of the gods want to step down and take them with them. My relatives and friends go to different lower realms to play.
Inheriting the divine throne and entering the divine realm is equivalent to working as a civil servant in the divine realm...
In other words, you have become a god in name, but in fact you have to work for people.
Even the lower realm is only for official duties, and there is no permission for casual play.
Only those supreme god kings had a certain degree of freedom.
But the God King is also not allowed to interfere privately in the lower realm. Once violated, he will be punished according to law.
God kings are those who maintain order and rules. Those who uphold laws violate the law. Even if it is to maintain the legitimacy of the God Realm Committee, other god kings must severely deal with the erring god kings.
Of course, even gods also pay attention to human relationships. Even if a god king really breaks the law, ordinary gods would not dare to report it.
This is also the reason why the God King treats some of the top first-level gods specially, because these top first-level gods are capable of resisting the God King's offensive for a period of time.
So generally speaking, the god-kings monitor each other. Just like in Douluo Second School, the God King of Destruction is always staring at Tang San.
Unless you are truly like the Dragon God of the past, or even surpass the Dragon God, even if you become a god or a god king, you will still not be free and need to be restrained by some bullshit divine committee.
This is unacceptable to You Chen, who is used to being restrained and suppressed.
So, his real ambition is not just to become a strong man or a god, but... to become the eternal king in this lower world and maintain eternal freedom and rule.
So, a long time ago, he set his goal on the second path.
Belief becomes a god, or all sentient beings become gods through their thoughts.
In the past, Poseidon, the god of the sea, was able to condense his divine status through faith and become a first-level god in one fell swoop. Then, if he relied on the greater power of sentient beings to condense a more powerful, god-king-level divine status, would he be able to obtain it? Disobeying the power of the Divine Realm Committee?
It is not against the entire God Realm Committee, it is just disobedience.
After all, this organization is not monolithic to begin with. Some people pay attention to rules, some want to cheat and cheat, and some want to exploit loopholes in the rules.
Oh, it’s not “someone”, but “there is God”.
If You Chen could achieve immortality on his own, there would be no need to ascend to some bullshit divine realm.
It is not difficult to guess how the God Realm Committee will respond to this.
There is no doubt that they will send someone to take You Chen, who has stayed in the human world beyond the period of stay, to the divine world.
But here comes the key question...who to send?
There must be differences.
Moreover, the biggest limitation of the God Realm Committee is that it must act in accordance with the regulations.
The God King can indeed break this restriction on his own, but there are still a lot of things to argue about.
You Chen can think of several just by thinking about them.
The simplest thing is...conspiracy theory!
When the God Realm Committee sent someone to inform him of his ascension, he bluntly stated that he did not trust the God Realm Committee and thought that this God Realm was a scam.
This is a statement that no one has made, but it is very defensible.
Because... You Chen has never been to the God Realm. This matter cannot be falsified.
You mean Poseidon? Angel god? That was in the old almanac many years ago, and there were only two gods there, but they didn't look real.
You Chen can even say with great righteousness that once the God Realm is a scam and a conspiracy of people from other worlds to control this land, if he ascends blindly like this, he will not be able to leave fire to the lower world. People are irresponsible...
In this way, the two female God-Kings of Kindness and Life, who are more emotional and soft, are likely to be biased towards him and choose to persuade rather than use strong methods. After all, this may aggravate the situation. Da Youchen’s misunderstanding of the divine world.
Then the God King of Destruction and the God King of Life are husband and wife, and they have to listen to their wives.
At this moment, more than half of the god kings may support him.
As for one day in the God Realm and one year in the Lower Realm, You Chen can spare a lot of time just by waffling a few times.
As long as You Chen does not ascend and enter the system of the God Realm, the God Kings are limited by their self-limiting laws and their concepts of justice and morality. For You Chen who is not a formal employee, they will It is difficult to stand on the moral high ground and ask You Chen to do something, and naturally he will become restrained.
For example, some companies can use righteous excuses such as "what do you want for the company" and "young people want to make progress" to conduct moral kidnapping and workplace PUA on some honest employees, but for non-employees The target... Damn it, who are you hooking up with? Are you talking to me about all this?
How can you use the name of "breaking the law" to judge and sanction a being who is not a god of the divine realm and knows nothing about the laws of the divine realm?
As long as the God Realm Committee prides itself on justice, when You Chen simply refuses to ascend but does nothing else that clearly violates the bottom line, there will be voices of opposition within them.
In this process, there may even be entanglements of interests.
Quite simply - this is a very reasonable lower bound opportunity.
You Chen even has the opportunity to reach an agreement with the gods from the lower world to achieve win-win cooperation.
To do this, the most important thing is of course strength.
Only with strength can you have confidence.
The god-king level strength is the confidence that others must hear his voice.
Once You Chen possesses god-king level power, it is destined to be difficult for him to ascend.
Otherwise, even if You Chen wants to argue, the God Kings may want to directly drag the person up first, use facts to prove it is not a conspiracy theory as quickly as possible, and then use time to slowly ease the relationship.
To achieve this, even the strength of the top level one god may be enough. Because what You Chen wants to do is not to defeat the gods of the God Realm, but just to be able to escape without dying.
With You Chen's long-standing expertise in speed, a first-level god would most likely have the speed to escape from the God King.
During this process, You Chen can continue to practice and accumulate strength until... he is truly invincible.
This is a fully feasible method.
Without him, there is a third path that is almost explicitly stated in the original work...
The three paths to condense divine power are the spirit of immortals, the power of sentient beings, and the last...the power of the universe, or the stars. strength.
Even before obtaining the system and evolving the martial soul, You Chen had thought about this path.
In other words, this was the route he envisioned when he had no system at the beginning.
Acquire the most easily obtainable life-changing treasure of heaven, material and earth, the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor soul bone. After improving your cultivation qualifications, ignore the subsequent war and escape into the secular world to cultivate.
It has been said more than once that the original power of martial souls can be cultivated by oneself, and soul rings and soul bones are nothing but gifts and shortcuts given by heaven and earth.
You Chen's original idea was to rely on his theoretical knowledge and improved talent to break the shackles step by step and rely on the power of the stars to become a god.
This is also a completely feasible path.
However, the success rate is probably no more than 10%, and even if he eventually becomes a god, he probably won't be able to fulfill his ambition quickly.
After multiplying the probabilities of each step, the probability of You Chen getting what he wants in the end is terrifyingly low.
Star power has always been one of You Chen's core strengths.
Even after the martial soul evolves, it is no exception.
It would be better to say that the power of stardust is of course a power above the power of stars.
In this world or universe, for now, there has never been a god who relied on the power of the universe to become a god.
Whether it is the God of Moonlight, the God of the Sun, or the God of Starlight, similar gods have never appeared before.
This also implies that this road must be full of thorns.
Based on You Chen's superficial understanding and analysis based on the information in the original work, the most likely possibility is that the power of the universe is extremely powerful for any god, at least a first-level god, or even a god-king level god.
It is natural that the more powerful a god is, the more difficult it is to condense it.
This is the reason why there has never been a corresponding god.
As for the power of Stardust, just after the evolution of the Stardust Dragon Spirit, the power of Stardust, which is at the lowest level of Youchen's control and has not yet reached its peak, is enough to compete with Qianren. Xue has mastered the angelic holy power for decades to fight against each other.
If one were to condense a divine position with the power of Stardust as its core, I'm afraid it would at least be the divine king's position.
In other words, it is another possibility.
The system of cosmic power is different from the existing god system and does not require the condensation of any god. The above speculations are all off track.
But now, You Chen actually has a fourth, fifth, and sixth path.
The fourth is the way to sanctify the body, the fifth is the way to the trinity of spirit, energy and spirit, and the sixth is the way to evolve the martial soul to break through the boundaries of the world.
However, the difficulty and possibility are also reduced accordingly.
You Chen is still focusing on the second and third roads.
The Beast Soul Alliance and the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce are one of the preparations he made to gather the power of sentient beings.
As for the power of stardust, he has been studying and controlling it during this time.
So You Chen seems to have not yet embarked on the road to becoming a god, but in fact he has already been on the road to becoming a god.
However, although several cultivation plans have not reached the final stage, You Chen has already planned to leave the camp and temporarily leave the camp in the Catastrophe Mountains.
The road to becoming a god requires one step at a time. Even after you have the system, you cannot be in a hurry.
After completing the digestion of his own strength improvement, there is no doubt about what You Chen has to do.
——Complete the fourth, fifth, and sixth soul rings of the second life, and the eighth soul ring of the first life.
Improve your strength again, and make all preparations for the upcoming time when your first life breaks through the ninth soul ring, and you condense the essence soul core of your second physical body.
You Chen's goal is very simple, that is, after condensing the second soul ring, he will officially have the ultimate level of strength and truly start to stir up the storm in this long-dormant continent.
"Nino."
You Chen left his room in the camp, and with a casual call, a girl with green hair and a fox mask quickly appeared.
"The subordinate is here."
The white fox mask is the symbol of the messenger today.
As the organization expanded, Grace bid farewell to the position of Youchen's personal maid. Instead, she promoted Nino, whom she had carefully trained, to be responsible for any of Youchen's needs, including docking intelligence.
In fact, after You Chen deliberately favored the resources of this maid who had been with him for the first time, Grace had recently obtained the fourth and fifth soul rings one after another and became the soul king. At the same time as the ambassador, he was promoted to the fifth beast head - the fox head.
In fact, Grace's true talent is quite good, and she is on the same level as Amona and Kui. In terms of martial arts, she is definitely an advanced martial spirit with the potential to be promoted to the top level.
After all, it is impossible for ordinary martial souls to obtain such top-notch soul skills and directly become the core role of Youchen's intelligence network in the early stage.
It’s just that when You Chen solved the problem of beast transformation, she had already missed most of the golden age of cultivation.
But just like Dugu Yan's true talent is not as good as the top players in the Imperial Fighting Team, but he can become the vice-captain.
Behind Dugu Yan, there is an old man who is willing to spend all his gold coins for him. The training resources Dugu Bo provides to Dugu Yan cannot even be compared to the direct descendants of the core family of Yu Tianheng.
After all, as the clan leader’s son, Yu Xiaoan’s lack of talent in cultivation and taking up too many resources would fill the clan with resentment. Yu Tianheng’s grandfather is the clan leader’s younger brother. No matter how talented he is, his cultivation resources cannot be compared. The only person whom a titled Douluo can train.
Relying on a large number of cherished resources, Dugu Yan's talent was forcibly raised to the top level.
Before getting the fairy grass, he was the kind of person who could not say whether he would become a titled Douluo in the future, but becoming a soul saint was a top genius who was certain.
Dugu Bo can open such a back door for Dugu Yan, and You Chen can also open such a back door for Grace.
You Chen directly gave Grace the eight-petal fairy orchid that can speed up the increase in soul power.
This will make up for her lack of training time.
Grace is already in her early thirties, but she can still be considered to be in her golden age. Although the effect of the eight-petal fairy orchid has been greatly reduced, it is still powerful. At least at the age of fifty, her energy and blood will completely decline. Previously, her cultivation speed was even faster than that of herself at the age of twenty, and could keep up with those soul masters who were born with full soul power and qualifications.
Then, You Chen gave Grace an intermediate experience pill that could directly promote her to the Soul King stage, directly promoting her to the Soul King stage.
You Chen only has so many experience pills at each stage. It can be said that his reserve of intermediate experience pills has been basically exhausted.
Although this approach is undoubtedly a huge waste for a person who has wasted most of his potential, but You Chen is happy with it, but no one can comment on it.
On the other hand, Ignis had been having fun with this for a long time, and came to her house specifically to "ask for an explanation". Naturally, she was severely punished. Can get out of bed.
After You Chen’s unconditional resource tilt, Grace has every hope of breaking through Soul Saint in the future.
With her martial soul qualifications and the perfect soul ring configured for her by You Chen, there is great hope that the martial soul can evolve through thick accumulation and ultimate sublimation.
With the big daddy You Chen here, it is not impossible to win the title in the future.
Today, Grace has such strength, coupled with the skills she has developed over the past ten years, she has become the mainstay of the Beast Soul Alliance, Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce and Messenger Group. Practice in the high-concentration energy environment of the eyes.
Although Grace wanted to serve You Chen very much to repay You Chen for his kindness in rebuilding, she also understood that such an arrangement was truly useful to You Chen, so she left the Catastrophe Mountains with great regret. But before that, he introduced the subordinates he had cultivated with all his efforts to You Chen.
After the brief recollection, You Chen looked at the proud subordinate of Grace in front of him, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
What Grace said is true, Nino is definitely a very worry-free and versatile servant.
Regardless of food, clothing, housing, transportation, intelligence gathering, or even helping him get rid of flies (referring to Dugu Yan), there is nothing wrong with him.
In addition, the face that You Chen has revealed more than once is also very iconic.
Nino's qualifications are only ordinary among the previous soul fighting beasts. His martial soul, Blue Bird, is an agility-attack martial soul with basically no combat power. If he were not a beast-turned-mutator, the origin of the martial soul would be Compared with normal soul masters, their power is somewhat higher, and their original power level may not even reach the intermediate level.
With such strength, it is natural that he cannot become a beast soldier, and he will eventually join the establishment of a beast envoy.
But as a maid, what strength do you need?
With such a beautiful, capable, obedient and well-behaved maid, who also knows how to take the initiative to help the master with things that are difficult to ask for (referring to dealing with Dugu Yan), You Chen is naturally extremely satisfied.
You Chen asked: "Nino, I'm going to take You Xing out on a trip next to help me make a notice. Then I'll go take a look at the souls I asked the messengers to collect half a month ago. What's going on with the beast's intelligence?"
Nino bowed slightly and said, "Yes."
Then he quickly possessed the spirit, taking advantage of the speed of the blue bird spirit and quickly disappeared. not see.
“Master Youchen, you just said that you want to take Brother Youxing out?”
A somewhat embarrassed voice sounded.
Too many times and with too much experience, You Chen now knows who the owner of the voice is without looking back.
But the other party was his "grandniece" after all. You Chen turned around, showed his usual gentle smile, and said: "It's Yanyan. As you heard, You Chen Xing's training has come to an end for the time being. I need to take him out for verification. The gains from practicing during this period of time."
Hearing this, Dugu Yan lowered his head, tapped his index fingers, and asked: "Well, in that case-"
"I'm sorry. , I can’t take you there, Yanyan.”
