The light gradually dissipated, the disturbance settled, and the energy aftermath was reduced to mere ripples.
Yang Yuan stood in place; his Manifesting Heaven and Earth was on the verge of collapsing, and the divine light within his Heavy Pupils had dimmed significantly.
However, his injuries were rapidly healing under the dual empowerment of the Supreme Bone and the Heavy Pupils.
Opposite him.
Because the God of Destruction was merely a Divine Thought Incarnation, he did not have shocking, gruesome wounds like Yang Yuan, but his Divine Thought Incarnation was gradually dissipating, with no strength left.
He stared at Yang Yuan, his gaze churning like stormy waves.
He could not have imagined that his Divine Thought Incarnation would actually lose to a Mortal.
However, a defeat was a defeat.
The God of Destruction spoke, his tone complex.
"Now, I finally know why you were unwilling to inherit the God Positions of Life and myself."
"You indeed have the qualification; I underestimated you just now."
Yang Yuan smiled calmly and said, "Senior meant well, but unfortunately, creating my own God Position has always been my goal."
The God of Destruction shook his head and said, "Very well, with your talent, creating a God King position should not be difficult."
Yang Yuan was not yet a god, yet he was already comparable to a First-level God.
If he couldn't create a God King position even then, it would be truly laughable.
Yang Yuan cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your fulfillment, Senior. Although I cannot inherit the God King position, I have a candidate who might be able to take over for that SeniorLife."
The God of Destruction was taken aback. He hadn't expected that Yang Yuan, while not wanting to inherit their God Positions himself, would think of recommending someone else. He suddenly found it quite amusing.
He said, "Kid, not everyone has talent like yours. Do you know that the Mortal world might not produce a single God Position candidate in ten thousand years?"
At this moment, the God of Life flew over from a distance.
She had naturally overheard what Yang Yuan just said and couldn't help but smile. "Destruction has a point. Little fellow, the God TrialLegacy is fraught with danger; people really do die."
Yang Yuan said confidently, "The person I speak of might not be sufficient to inherit the God of Life's position right now, but in five years at most, she will definitely have the qualification."
"Oh?" Seeing Yang Yuan's confident face, both Life and Destruction showed expressions of surprise.
After the exchange just now, both could see that Yang Yuan was not someone who spoke without reason.
Since he was so confident, he likely had a good degree of certainty.
At this thought, the God of Life's heart stirred.
If she encountered a suitable successor, it wouldn't be out of the question to pass on the God of Life position.
In any case, even after passing on the God Position, she could still stay in the God Realm to continue assisting the God of Destruction.
Thus, she smiled and said, "Since you are so confident, then when you feel the time is ripe, let the person you mentioned come to accept my God Trial."
With that, the God of Life waved her hand.
A green leaf drifted down in front of Yang Yuan.
She smiled and said, "This is a leaf from the Tree of Life, and also my token. When the time is right, you can use this leaf to establish contact with me."
"Thank you."
In truth, even without this leaf, he could still contact the God of Life, but Yang Yuan took it anyway.
After putting the leaf away, Yang Yuan glanced at the surroundings.
The entire Chaos Battlefield was already riddled with scars from the brief clash just now, and the boundaries had begun to silently collapse.
The earth shattered into floating dust, the sky cracked into drifting smoke, and the Chaos currents no longer churned, receding into the Void Realm.
"This place is no longer habitable; let's change locations first."
Yang Yuan waved his hand, and a rift appeared in the horizon of the Chaos Battlefield.
He, the God of Life, and the God of Destruction vanished into it, returning in an instant to the main hall of Spirit Hall.
However, compared to Yang Yuan and the God of Life...
The God of Destruction's Divine Thought Incarnation had already collapsed by half, leaving only his upper body, which was also slowly dissipating.
His expression remained majestic, but his eyes held a bit more recognition as he looked at Yang Yuan.
He said indifferently, "You are very good. I will wait for you in the God Realm!"
After saying this, the God of Destruction did not continue waiting for the Incarnation to dissipate on its own, but actively returned to the God Realm.
Seeing the God of Destruction depart, the God of Life smiled and said, "Little Purple is just like that, but I've never seen him acknowledge a Mortal so much."
"Is that so? Then it is my honor." Yang Yuan gave a light laugh.
Seeing this, a soft smile appeared on the God of Life's face.
Despite Yang Yuan calling them 'Senior' at every turn...
The God of Life could actually tell that Yang Yuan did not have the kind of awe towards her and the God of Destruction that other Mortals or even ordinary divinities felt when facing them.
Perhaps this was the confidence of a Genius.
Because Yang Yuan was extremely confident that he could become a God King like her and Destruction.
Precisely because of this, when facing her and the God of Destruction, Yang Yuan would subconsciously place himself on the same level as them.
Of course, the God of Life was not angry about this.
Because Yang Yuan's battle with the God of Destruction's Divine Thought just now had not only earned the God of Destruction's recognition but hers as well.
Otherwise, how could she have so easily agreed to Yang Yuan's recommendation and even given him a token?
After the God of Destruction's Divine Thought Incarnation returned to the God Realm, the Goddess of Life followed suit, saying, "Alright, I must also return to the God Realm. With your talent, I expect it won't be long before we meet again in the God Realm with Little Purple."
After speaking, the Goddess of Life gave Yang Yuan a gentle smile, and her Divine Thought Incarnation turned into a green light, vanishing from the hall in an instant.
After the two left, Yang Yuan did not rush out of the palace but sat down cross-legged to recover from his injuries... Outside the palace.
Qian Renxue's brow furrowed slightly.
Clearly, the commotion inside the palace had subsided, but Xiao Yuan still showed no sign of ending his seclusion, which couldn't help but cause a hint of worry in her heart.
However, she did not rush in but continued to wait outside.
It wasn't until another two hours had passed and Yang Yuan walked out of the palace that she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Qian Renxue stepped forward and hugged Yang Yuan, her clear voice carrying a hint of concern.
"Why was the seclusion so long this time? You worried me to death."
Yang Yuan held Qian Renxue, breathing in her delicate fragrance. "Sister Xueer, I made you worry."
At this point, he paused and said in a teasing tone, "I'll explain it to you slowly later."
The two were practically an old married couple by now, so Qian Renxue naturally understood the meaning behind Yang Yuan's words instantly. Two blushes appeared on her face, and she lowered her voice in a coquettish scold, "You brat, do you want to die!"
"I don't know if I'm going to die, but in a little while, you might be the one dying!"
With that, Yang Yuan beckoned with his hand.
It was as if a gale rose beneath their feet, instantly carrying them away from the spot.
When they reappeared, they were already in their sleeping quarters.
A mica screen separated the inner and outer rooms. Behind the screen was the bed, with shark-silk curtains half-drawn and gilded incense burners at the corners.
In an instant, their clothes were hung one by one with precision upon the screen.
As the saying goes:
Heavenly thunder ignites earthly fire; a short parting is better than a honeymoon!
Yang Yuan fulfilled what he had just said.
He would explain slowly later!
