Inside the valley, the space shrouded in darkness was eerily silent.
Di Tian's enormous golden dragon eyes were only a few feet away from Ning Liu.
After a long while, the extreme confusion and fear were finally replaced by a more primal rage.
This is the last and most powerless line of defense after the secret has been discovered.
Even if you know, so what?!
Di Tian's roar echoed within the sealed space, no longer majestic, but filled with hysterical madness.
His massive dragon head jerked back sharply, creating distance between him and Ning Liu, his golden eyes burning with a near-destructive flame.
"What do you want? With your meager skills, you think you can covet the Lord's power? Or do you want to use this secret to curry favor with the gods?!"
With nowhere to vent his anger, his burning gaze suddenly turned to the girl behind Ning Liu, who held a trident and looked wary.
"And you too!"
Di Tian's voice was as cold as ice.
"A dignified 100,000-year-old soul beast, a member of my soul beast lineage, is free to transform into a human, yet it willingly accepts the inheritance of a god!"
"Don't you know that by doing this, you're degrading yourself and becoming a lackey of those hypocrites in the divine realm?!"
This heavy burden was imposed upon me, and it came suddenly.
Xiao Wu, who had been on high alert, was stunned when she heard this.
She blinked her big, watery eyes, looked at the furious Di Tian, then turned to look at Ning Liu, her little face full of confusion.
running dog?
She tilted her head, then puffed out her cheeks, took a step forward, and her clear voice was full of defiance:
"How dare you insult me like that, you dragon! I'm not a dog, I'm a rabbit!"
"..."
This righteous rebuttal made Di Tian's anger feel like it had been doused with a bucket of cold water, instantly getting stuck in his throat, unable to rise or fall.
His enormous dragon eyes froze for a moment.
Is this the main point?!
"We'll talk about that later!"
Seeing that he had nothing to say, Xiao Wu became even more enthusiastic. She brandished the trident of Poseidon in her hand, and the blade flashed a beautiful golden light in the darkness.
"What do you mean by saying that it's fine for a soul beast to transform into a human? What do you mean by saying that accepting a divine inheritance makes one a lackey?"
"I passed the test on my own merits, how did I become a lackey? Do you have any sense of reason?!"
"If you're so capable, why don't you create a divine legacy for yourself?"
"you……"
Di Tian almost couldn't catch his breath from the dragon energy.
Trying to reason with a rabbit? When did the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King stoop to this level?
Just as his anger was rising again, Ning Liu's voice rang out calmly.
"Xiao Wu was able to obtain the Sea God's inheritance, and it is true that I helped her to some extent."
Upon hearing this, Di Tian's anger, which was about to erupt again, was once again forcefully suppressed.
He suddenly turned his head and stared intently at Ning Liu.
"you?!"
"What ability do you have to interfere with the inheritance of the gods?"
The divine inheritance is an ironclad law defined by God, a manifestation of the law.
How could an ordinary person, even a peerless genius, possibly get involved?
This is even more unbelievable than silently taking away his Achilles' heel.
Ning Liu, however, did not rush to answer his question, but instead threw the question back at him.
"Before answering your question, senior, I think you should first explain why soul beasts become lackeys of the divine realm after accepting divine inheritance?"
His tone was calm.
“I told you, I’m here to get to the bottom of things.”
"If you continue like this, we might turn friends into enemies."
Di Tian's golden dragon eyes contracted sharply.
He looked at Ning Liu, then glanced at Xiao Wu beside him, whose face was saying, "Tell me quickly, why?" The feeling of being manipulated by this human in front of him surged up again.
He realized that from the very beginning, he had fallen into the other party's rhythm.
Every time he was about to explode, the other party would throw out an even more shocking piece of news, forcing him to suppress his anger.
Whenever he tries to take the initiative, his opponent always manages to seize the key point and turn the tables on him.
This is not a young man under twenty years old. This is clearly an old monster who has lived for countless millennia and has manipulated people's hearts to the extreme!
Di Tian's chest heaved violently, and his dragon breath was heavy.
Finally, he slowly closed his golden dragon eyes, as if trying to calm his dragon heart, which had been in complete turmoil.
When I opened my eyes again, all the madness and rage had subsided, leaving only a deep-seated, unyielding sorrow and indifference accumulated over countless ages.
"You want to know?"
Di Tian's voice became low and hoarse, containing a deep-seated hatred.
"Fine, I'll tell you, I'll tell you just how despicable and shameless those hypocrites in the divine realm are!"
He didn't look at Ning Liu; instead, his gaze fell on Xiao Wu.
"Little girl, what do you think the inheritance of divine status is? A blessing? No, it's a shackle! A trap!"
"Do you know why, on this continent, there are countless soul beasts and many cultivators with hundreds of thousands of years of cultivation, yet no soul beast has ever been able to cultivate into a god on its own?"
Xiao Wu shook her head. She only knew it was difficult, but she didn't know why.
"Because the divine realm forbids it!"
"Di Tian's voice suddenly rose, filled with suppressed anger,"
"The gods of the divine realm, in order to consolidate their rule, joined forces to modify the laws of heaven and earth countless years ago! They severed the path to godhood for all soul beasts!"
"No matter how high your talent or how strong your cultivation, as long as you are a soul beast, you will never be able to condense a divine position and step into the realm of gods!"
