Chapter 1 Introduction
Douluo God Realm.
The Sea God and his wife were enjoying some alone time with their daughter when they happened to start talking about Douluo Continent.
Just as they were talking, a small head peeked out from the clouds not far away. It looked about eleven or twelve years old. It blinked its beautiful big eyes. Its appearance was at least seven parts similar to the sea god, but the lines were much softer, and its eyes were more like those of the girl next to the sea god.
"I always hear my parents talk about Douluo Continent, it seems like a lot of fun! Hehe." As she spoke, her petite figure quietly disappeared into the clouds and mist, and she quickly walked towards the center of the God Realm with small steps.
The majestic palace shimmered with a faint golden light under the glow of the divine realm. This was the highest point in the entire divine realm, the place that controlled everything in the divine realm, and also the little guy's destination on this journey.
"The Divine Realm Committee is ahead. Unauthorized personnel are prohibited from entering!"
However, things did not go as the little girl wished; she was stopped at the entrance of the committee by two priests.
"Hello Uncle Zhou! Hello Sister Ye!" Although she was stopped, the little girl did not panic. Instead, she greeted the two priests with a bright smile.
"Little Seven, we're working right now. If you want to play with someone, go find Sister Ning." The priestess, addressed as Sister Night, looked at the little girl with a loving expression.
Ever since Xiao Qi was born more than ten years ago, the lifeless divine realm has been turned upside down by this adorable little guy, with news of Xiao Qi causing trouble coming out from time to time.
She either ruins the God of Emotions' pot while learning to cook, or she tramples on the flowers cultivated by the Goddess of Butterflies. However, the victims usually don't blame Xiao Qi for these things; instead, they all like this quirky little guy.
It's not just because Xiao Qi is very sensible; the "damage" she causes is mostly minor, and the gods actually enjoy watching Xiao Qi's pranks backfire.
After all, life in the God Realm was incredibly boring, and Xiao Qi's existence brought a bit more life to the God Realm.
Let's get back to the topic.
"I left my toy inside..." Little Seven looked at Sister Ye with pleading eyes. "I want to go in and get it..."
Xiao Qi's lying skills really amused the goddess priest. Just as she was about to tease Xiao Qi, she suddenly received a telepathic message and swallowed back what she was about to say.
"Alright, but be careful. The Divine Realm Committee won't let you do whatever you want."
"Thank you, Sister Ye. Don't worry, Sister Ye, this isn't Xiao Qi's first time in there; she won't cause any trouble!"
Having escaped the priest's sight, Xiao Qi skipped and hopped proudly toward the central area of the Divine Realm Committee.
"Hmph, Sister Ye is so silly! I'll have to talk to Father and ask him to find a different priest to guard the gate. As for Sister Ye... she can just stay and play with me!"
"Let me think, how did the kind aunt and the evil uncle get down there...?"
Xiao Qi racked her brains trying to recall the scene of her two elders descending to the mortal realm, but unfortunately she was too young then and her memory was a bit blurry...
"I think it was this button..."
As a passage from the divine realm to the lower realm, it is not complicated to operate. There is only one switch that is responsible for opening the spatial passage. Xiao Qi quickly found the switch, and a strong spatial fluctuation was emitted. Soon, a spatial door slowly opened.
"Success! But... is the world below really Douluo Continent?"
Looking at the portal in front of her, Xiao Qi hesitated, which was rare for her. Stepping through this portal would mean leaving the God Realm, which she had never left before.
However, thinking about her increasingly boring life recently, Xiaoqi mustered up her courage again and jumped into the space portal.
"Never mind... Goddess of Luck, please let me go to Douluo Continent!"
As the portal closed, the Divine Realm Council returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.
A deep voice suddenly rang out: "Sea God, didn't you even try to stop Xiao Qi from going down to the mortal realm?"
"You know Xiao Qi's situation is dire. Unless we stop her from cultivating, as long as she stays in the God Realm, the Asura Origin will continue to erode her soul... It's good to let Xiao Qi go to the Douluo World. There are no followers of the Asura God in the Douluo World, but there is plenty of faith in the Sea God. Only in the lower realm can Xiao Qi improve her strength while avoiding the erosion of the Asura Origin. Since she wants to go down there, let her go."
Beside the god known as Destruction, a woman in green spoke up in rebuttal: "But doing so is ultimately just drinking poison to quench thirst. After ten months of pregnancy, the part of the Asura's essence that merged with Xiao Qi's soul was already indistinguishable. If it weren't for the fact that the Sea God's essence and the Asura's essence are now both on you, allowing you to use the Sea God's essence to suppress the Asura's erosion, Xiao Qi's soul would have already been corrupted and assimilated by the Asura's essence. Unless the Asura's essence is eliminated, this hidden danger will always exist..."
"I understand, life... Since that's the case, let's just sever the soul corrupted by the Asura's essence!" A hint of hesitation flashed in the Sea God's eyes, but thinking of the fate of a soul completely corrupted by the Asura God's essence, he hardened his heart and said:
"While the rate of erosion by the Asura's essence in the lower realm has slowed, we should increase Xiao Qi's soul strength as quickly as possible. Then, by severing this part of her soul, we can eliminate the hidden danger at the lowest possible cost..."
"By then, Xiaoqi's personality will have been basically fixed. The memories lost before the age of six due to the removal of part of her soul will not have a significant impact on Xiaoqi's personality. This is the best solution we can think of at the moment."
Upon hearing the Sea God's words, Destruction and Life fell silent. The divine realm currently lacked any deities particularly skilled in matters of the soul, let alone capable of removing the essence of a God-King from the soul of Xiao Qi, who was essentially still an ordinary person. While the Sea God's method was somewhat radical, it was the best they could conceive of…
It's just that poor Xiaoqi is suffering.
Seeing that the Sea God had made up his mind, the two gods of destruction and life did not say anything more and silently left the Divine Realm Committee, leaving the Sea God alone to guard the Divine Realm Committee.
"Not good!" Suddenly, the Sea God, who had been meditating quietly, exclaimed and abruptly focused all his consciousness on the part of his soul essence that had been left on Xiao Qi.
Douluo Continent, Haotian Sect, the land of inheritance.
Within Xiao Qi's soul, the Sea God's Origin, which had been steadily suppressing the Asura Origin, was now showing signs of weakness. The Asura Origin was gradually gaining the upper hand and began to accelerate its erosion of Xiao Qi's soul.
"Damn it!" the Sea God cursed under his breath, and with a sudden wave of his hands, the Sea God faith accumulated by the entire Haotian Sect over the past ten thousand years gradually converged here, and was used by the Sea God to strengthen the Sea God's essence within Xiao Qi's body.
Just as the Sea God's faith, which the entire Haotian Sect had collected over the past ten thousand years, was about to run out, and the Sea God, disregarding the losses caused by mobilizing faith power from afar, was preparing to draw it from other places, the momentum of the Asura Origin was finally suppressed once again.
Looking at Xiao Qi, who had fallen into a coma, the Sea God's expression turned extremely ugly.
This accident was clearly his mistake. In the God Realm, the Sea God's Origin relied on the power of faith throughout the entire God Realm to suppress the sealed Asura Origin. Now that he has come to the lower realm, even if he has accumulated the power of faith for ten thousand years, it is impossible for it to be as rich as the power of faith collected from thousands of worlds.
This resulted in the Sea God's source suppressing the Asura's source in the lower realm being far less powerful than it was in the God Realm, and ignoring this almost led to a major disaster.
However, now... the Sea God's essence, having lost sufficient faith power, will eventually lose its suppressive power over the Asura's essence again. To prolong this state, the only option is to suppress all of Xiao Qi's soul essence to reduce the activity of the divine power essence.
However, this would force Xiao Qi into a deep sleep, which contradicts the original intention of sending Xiao Qi to travel to the mortal realm...
We have to find a way to both maintain the suppression of the Asura's essence and allow Xiao Qi's soul to grow...
