Black World, Heaven Dou Empire, Crown Prince's Mansion.
"The Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud is actually something used by the Sea God to select his successor?!"
Qian Renxue, who was leisurely watching the heavenly curtain, abruptly stood up from her seat.
Regarding the national treasure, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, the Heaven Dou Empire imperial family's official stance had always been that it was a powerful spirit tool integrating both defense and offense.
To think it actually had such a hidden secret?
Qian Renxue changed into Xue Qinghe's attire. As she changed her clothes, her voice rang out as well.
"Uncle She."
As her words fell, a figure appeared by Qian Renxue's side—it was none other than Snake Lance Douluo, who guarded Qian Renxue.
"I am going to enter the palace now to see Xue Ye. Take that opportunity to seize the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud."
"It is better for this kind of item not to play any role in this era."
Qian Renxue's gaze was sharp.
In this era where Luck is flourishing and gods are about to emerge, anything that could help others become gods was a disaster for Spirit Hall.
Even without the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, those endowed with Luck could still run to Sea God Island to try and see if they could attract the Sea God's attention.
But not everyone was Yu Xiaogang. Without being screened by the Sea God's Heart beforehand, the Sea God might not necessarily bestow Gods Trial.
At worst, with the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud in Spirit Hall's hands, it could at least delay the Sea God's successor from completing the Gods Trial.
"Understood."
Snake Lance Douluo acknowledged the order and departed.
Soon, Qian Renxue arrived at the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace and began discussing how to handle the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud with a group of ministers wearing various expressions.
Should it be used to win over talents with the potential to become gods, or to exchange for benefits with other factions?
Grasping such a supreme treasure, everyone up and down the Heaven Dou Empire was thinking about how to squeeze every last drop of benefit out of the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.
However.
"Not good, something terrible has happened, Your Majesty! During the process of fetching the national treasure, two Titled Douluo suddenly appeared and snatched the national treasure away!"
In an instant, an uproar broke out in the grand hall. Everyone's complexion looked ugly, and Emperor Xue Ye roared angrily.
"How is that possible? This is the Forbidden Ground of the imperial palace! Why would two Titled Douluo suddenly sneak in?!"
"Go find it! Go and get the Sea God's Heart back for me!"
Emperor Xue Ye's roar echoed in everyone's ears. On the surface, Qian Renxue looked equally furious, but she was sneering inwardly.
How could she possibly let you find it back?
Thinking this, Qian Renxue looked towards the heavenly curtain.
In their World, Yu Xiaogang was a sheer piece of trash, but the heavenly curtain had revealed so many things to them.
Under these circumstances, if Spirit Hall still couldn't utilize this advantage to let others successfully ascend to godhood, then their Spirit Hall would truly be a bunch of good-for-nothings.
After learning about the situation of the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, other factions also began to take action one after another.
Some moved closer to the Heaven Dou Empire, while others prepared to make a move against the Heaven Dou Empire; the reactions from all sides varied.
Although the Heaven Dou imperial family kept emphasizing afterward that the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud had been snatched away by unknown Titled Douluo, unfortunately, no one ever believed their rhetoric.
Until years later, when the new god of Douluo Continent appeared, people finally realized: So you were actually really robbed?
Of course, these are stories for another time.
[The video continues...]
[Yu Xiaogang fell into deep thought because the Sea God's Heart was difficult to get hold of. Bo Saixi spoke with Bibi Dong about the precautions for the second Gods Trial, and then left.]
[Turning her head and seeing that Yu Xiaogang was still frowning in thought, Bibi Dong took the initiative to ask.]
["Is that Sea God's Heart very difficult to get hold of?"]
["Yeah, quite hard to come by."]
[Yu Xiaogang nodded.]
["Back then, I followed my father to the Heaven Dou Empire's treasury. It was right there that I saw the Sea God's Heart."]
["According to what the people there said, the Sea God's Heart was treated as a national treasure by the Heaven Dou Empire and was given the name Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud."]
["If we want to get their national treasure from the hands of the Heaven Dou Empire's imperial family, I can't find a suitable reason."]
[Hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, Bibi Dong was also dumbfounded.]
["How did it become the national treasure of the Heaven Dou Empire?"]
[Bibi Dong's brow furrowed as well.]
[As one of the Two Great Empires occupying Douluo Continent, the Heaven Dou Empire was rich in products and had a bountiful national treasury.]
[It could be said: what kind of treasure had the Heaven Dou Empire's imperial family never seen?]
[And most importantly, toward the Heaven Dou Empire's imperial family, there was no way to treat them like Spirit Masters.]
[The Heaven Dou Empire's imperial family commanded a million soldiers; raw personal strength simply wasn't their pursuit.]
[Although if they were truly willing, Spirit Hall could indeed afford the price, the problem was that if they were willing to pay the price, the Heaven Dou imperial family would have to consider why Spirit Hall was willing to pay it.]
[At that time, it would be another bunch of troublesome matters.]
[Or Bibi Dong could directly reveal her identity as the Sea God's successor. A god's successor would surely be able to prompt the Heaven Dou imperial family to treat her with utmost respect.]
[But that would be a huge favor.]
[Bibi Dong did not like owing favors to strangers.]
["So, how on earth did it become the national treasure of the Heaven Dou Empire?!"]
[Bibi Dong paced back and forth irritably.]
[Thinking and thinking, it seemed that direct robbery was the most convenient method, but wouldn't robbing it directly be far too degrading?]
["Forget it, let's not think about this for now. Since your second Gods Trial is this, let's return to Douluo Continent first. When we get back to Spirit Hall, we'll hand all these matters over to your teacher and the High Priest."]
["Let them have headaches over these problems."]
[Yu Xiaogang said.]
[Unlike his father, the Sea God was a god with a distinct Domain, and all the subjects who believed in him were concentrated on the seas outside of Douluo Continent.]
[This made the Sea God not an enemy of the Angel God in terms of faith.]
[Thus, Bibi Dong did not need to fear falling out with Spirit Hall because of her identity as the Sea God's successor.]
[This was also the reason why Qian Daoliu and Bo Saixi—one being the High Priest of the Angel God and the other the High Priestess of the Sea God—could coexist harmoniously.]
[Therefore, when Bibi Dong returned to Spirit Hall and announced the news of her becoming the Sea God's successor, she would only receive Spirit Hall's help.]
[Even Qian Daoliu might be extremely happy; after all, once Bibi Dong became the new Sea God, as a Sea God originating from Spirit Hall, the two sides would become even closer.]
["We're going back to Douluo Continent just like that?"]
[Bibi Dong didn't want to return to Douluo Continent so quickly.]
[This was not quite what she had envisioned after coming to Sea God Island.]
[The reason why she had been Cultivating so desperately for over a year was also with the intent of working hard now and shocking everyone upon her return.]
[Just imagine: a Spirit King who was under level 60 when she left, returning to Spirit Hall a few years later to directly become a Spirit Douluo, or even a Titled Douluo.]
[How mind-blowing that would be to everyone's eyes.]
[Bibi Dong had even specifically envisioned the scene of herself returning to Spirit Hall, her teacher being so shocked that he jumped up from his throne, along with a group of elders gasping in cold air.]
[With these imaginations, Bibi Dong really didn't want to return to Douluo Continent too early.]
