Douluo Dalu:Breaking Clan

After Yang Tianyue and Yang Ping'an left Almo Mountain, only Ye Lingling, Niu Meng, and Dugu Yan remained at Heavenly Academy.

The three of them got along well with Feng Xiaotian and his peers.

This time, apart from the original members of Heavenly Academy, the only additional companion on their journey to the Extreme North was Shui Qingrou. This trip could be considered a valuable experience for Shui Qingrou, as her soul power increased by three levels.

That night, after an intimate moment between Yang Podi and Ye Lingling, Ye Lingling appeared conflicted.

Yang Podi gently stroked Ye Lingling's short silver hair, seemingly enchanted. No matter the circumstances, the faint wood-attribute aura emanating from her was always captivating.

Seeing Ye Lingling's hesitant expression, Yang Podi was a bit puzzled and asked, "Lingling, what's wrong? You seem conflicted. If something is troubling you, just tell me, and I'll help you solve it."

Ye Lingling hesitated for a while before finally speaking, "Podi, what exactly is a god? Why are you and Tianyue so determined to become gods?"

After thinking carefully, Yang Podi replied, "A god is essentially a more advanced kind of human. As soul masters, our lifespans are limited. Even at the level of a Titled Douluo, one can only live for about one to two centuries. For a Limit Douluo, they might live for over a thousand years."

"But gods are another realm beyond Level 99. In this realm, the body and soul undergo transformation. Our regular soul power turns into divine power, which is countless times stronger and more profound. The divine power you absorbed from the corpse of the Iceworm in the Extreme North is the reason for your rapid advancement."

"By the way, Lingling, why are you suddenly asking about gods?"

Ye Lingling hesitated before explaining, "Since I reached Level 95 in the Extreme North, a voice suddenly appeared in my mind, saying that if I reach Level 99, I can take a divine trial and inherit a god's position."

Hearing this, Yang Podi couldn't help but swallow. This world was just too strange! Despite all his efforts and dangerous pursuits for opportunities, the best he got was a high-risk Asura God's inheritance trial. And yet, those around him seemed to have such fortuitous encounters effortlessly.

However, Yang Podi still consoled her, "Lingling, this is great news! Gods are fundamentally different from ordinary soul masters—they possess eternal lifespans. By the way, did the voice mention which god was offering their inheritance?"

"She seemed to be a woman, and I remember her mentioning that she was the Goddess of Life."

Yang Podi's face lit up with excitement. "The Goddess of Life! Lingling, this is a tremendous opportunity for you. The Goddess of Life is one of the five supreme Divine Kings of the God Realm, one of the most powerful and influential beings there."

"But Podi, I've noticed that both you and Tianyue are facing extremely difficult divine trials. Is there anything I should be particularly mindful of?"

After some thought, Yang Podi explained, "Gods are a form of evolved life. To become a god, you need four essential elements: a divine position, a divine body, a divine soul, and a divine artifact."

"As for the divine position and divine artifact, you probably don't need to worry. If the Goddess of Life genuinely wishes to pass on her divine position to you, these should already be prepared for you."

"For the divine body, special attention is needed. Ideally, you'll require full-body soul bones with high-year limits of wood attributes. The best would be 100,000-year soul bones, but at the very least, they should be no less than 50,000 years."

"The divine soul transformation is the most painful part of all the trials. To become a god, one must resist temptations of the seven emotions and six desires, possess exceptional individual strength, and demonstrate sufficient wisdom and courage to overcome any obstacles. That's why I sent Tianyue to the Slaughter City—it's an ideal place for refining personal abilities, dealing with crises, and honing combat skills."

"Lingling, you can rest assured. The Goddess of Life has immense prestige in the God Realm. As long as you train diligently and reach Level 99 quickly, you will undoubtedly succeed in becoming a god in the future."

Hearing this, Ye Lingling finally felt relieved.

However, something seemed to cross her mind, and she quickly asked, "Podi, I've never asked you—what kind of god is the Asura God? And is the Asura God trial very challenging?"

Yang Podi quickly reassured her, "Lingling, you don't need to worry about that. Although I'm only on the third trial of the Asura God inheritance, I feel that the subsequent trials shouldn't be too difficult. At least, with my strength, they should be manageable."

"Then why are you still staying in Heavenly Academy? Shouldn't you focus on completing your trials as soon as possible?"

"You're right. I do need to speed up. I've been preparing for the third trial of the Asura God inheritance and have already devised a basic plan. Now I just need to gather the necessary components."

Hearing this, Ye Lingling finally felt completely at ease.

"Podi, I've been thinking about my grandfather recently. I wonder where he is and how he's doing."

"Lingling, I'll accompany you to find your grandfather in a while. With the world in such chaos, Almo Mountain is one of the safest places for him."

After their conversation, Ye Lingling gradually fell asleep in Yang Podi's arms.

Yang Podi gently touched Ye Lingling's beautiful face and couldn't resist planting a light kiss. His heart ached for her.

Though Ye Lingling was a healing-type support soul master, she had been the most hardworking and exhausted during their trip to the Extreme North.

When Yang Tianyue and the others were fighting the Ice Empress, Titan Snow Demon Evil Ape, and Ice Bear King, Ye Lingling spared no effort in healing everyone, completely disregarding her own soul power consumption. This was the primary reason everyone returned unharmed.

In particular, during their battle against the Snow Empress, everyone had pushed their strength to the limit against such an extraordinary opponent.

Yang Zhentian, Yang Podi's father, had gone all out to break through the Snow Empress's "Cold Heaven - Snow Dance Radiant Sun." He had detonated seven soul rings at once, temporarily elevating his power to its peak.

However, ring detonation came with immense risks, and the side effects were severe. It was Ye Lingling's relentless treatment that not only allowed Yang Zhentian to recover quickly but also ensured he was free of internal injuries.

Thanks to her ultimate healing, none of them suffered any residual injuries, making training and combat much more efficient.

The next morning, Yang Podi found Yang Wudi and the others to discuss the future development of Heavenly Academy and some precautionary matters.

Yang Podi spoke seriously, "Grandfather, Father, I plan to visit Spirit City soon. The main reason is to borrow the Spirit Empire's divine artifact, the Angelic Holy Sword. Additionally, there may be some issues related to the academy's stance."

Upon hearing this, Yang Wudi's expression darkened. "Podi, are you planning to support the Spirit Hall in unifying the continent?"

Yang Podi shook his head. "I don't support their unification of the continent. I merely intend to engage in some ordinary cooperation."

"The current situation is already very clear. On one side, there's the Spirit Empire. On another side, we have the two great empires and the Upper Three Sects. And lastly, Heavenly Academy, which barely constitutes a separate faction."

Among these three factions, while the Spirit Empire seems the strongest on the surface, that's entirely incorrect. In truth, the strongest is the alliance of the two great empires and the Upper Three Sects."

At this moment, Dugu Bo was somewhat surprised. "Little monster, I don't think your statement is accurate. The Spirit Empire likely controls over 70% of the soul masters in the entire soul master world, possibly even more. Theoretically, the Spirit Hall should have the strongest power."

Yang Podi shook his head slightly. "This is just a superficial phenomenon. True strength is not judged this way."

"Although the Spirit Empire has many soul masters, based on current estimates, the Spirit Empire at most has sixty to seventy thousand soul masters, the vast majority of whom are on the lower end of the spectrum."

"The two great empires may be weaker in terms of soul master presence, but they have millions of soldiers, along with a population far surpassing that of the Spirit Empire. Especially considering that the two empires have been deeply rooted in their territories for tens of thousands of years, their foundations are exceedingly strong."

"Moreover, the soul master forces of the two empires are not weak. Over the past two years, they have recruited countless advanced soul master academies and local soul master clans. Particularly with their investment of enormous resources into cultivating soul masters, they've amassed a large number of loyal, direct soul masters."

"The combination of their military and soul masters makes them not much weaker than the Spirit Empire."

At this moment, Dugu Bo shook his head. "What you're saying is reasonable, but when it comes to high-level combat strength, especially among the ranks of Titled Douluos, the Spirit Hall holds an absolute advantage."

Yang Podi sighed. "That's not entirely accurate. The two great empires together possess at least ten or more Titled Douluo-level combatants. In particular, the Star Luo Empire's high-level strength has always been mysterious. Their martial soul fusion skill, the Netherworld White Tiger, is undeniably powerful."

"Additionally, do you remember the dragon claw that saved Tang Hao back then? That belonged to the Beast God Di Tian, one of the rulers of the Star Dou Forest."

"When taking the Star Dou Forest into account, the forest's strength far surpasses any faction, even the Spirit Empire."

Dugu Bo looked shocked. "Is the Star Dou Forest truly that powerful?"

"The Star Dou Forest is unimaginably strong, even far more so than you've seen. The forest is home to numerous hundred-thousand-year soul beasts, including ferocious ones. I estimate there are no fewer than ten in total, and all of them possess combat strength equivalent to Titled Douluos."

"Among those, we've encountered Di Tian and the Bear Lord before. Both of them are close to the level of an Ultimate Douluo. Especially Di Tian—I'm not confident I could defeat him."

At this point, Yang Wudi's expression became much more solemn. "Podi, if the Star Dou Forest possesses such immense strength, why would they support Tang San?"

Yang Podi couldn't help but sigh. "Perhaps it has something to do with Tang San's bloodline. His mother herself was a hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor, meaning Tang San carries half the bloodline of a soul beast. Furthermore, Tang San's girlfriend is also a hundred-thousand-year soul beast. The soul beast race has invested so much in Tang San—surely they have their reasons."

"You might have heard of it. During the coup in the Heaven Dou Palace, Qian Daoliu likely fought Di Tian. The soul beast race is already on the verge of making their presence known. This is also why I've always been cautious of Tang San and the Clear Sky Clan."

"If I were to march into Heaven Dou City and annihilate the Clear Sky Clan, there's a good chance the soul beast race would launch a massive beast tide directly against our Heavenly Academy."
