Old Di was a dignified dragon. Even after falling to the mortal world, he had not abandoned his nature and was still a dragon with great taste. Ordinary soul beasts were beneath his notice.
Therefore, Di Tian's first wife was a phoenix-blooded emerald swan with considerable cultivation.
As for his second wife, Di Tian was quite original, playing the role of raising a child bride—raising his own offspring to consume them, which was very meticulous.
However, at this moment, the once majestic golden dragon eyes of Di Tian were now filled with bloodshot veins, his gaze clouded and hungry, scanning his surroundings.
Di Tian was currently in the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest, a place that should have been inhabited by ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts or ferocious beasts. However, due to Ye Wen's policies, all the hundred-thousand-year-old soul beasts on Douluo Planet had entered the small worlds of the Four Divine Beasts, enhancing their bloodlines and cultivation.
Thus, the core area had become a paradise for powerful ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts.
At this moment, the unrestrained soul beasts, no longer suppressed by Sky Azure Bull Python, froze in place upon seeing Di Tian's arrival.
This was fear of an absolute powerhouse, leaving them without even a trace of resistance.
But soon, a scene that shocked them unfolded.
Contrary to expectations, Di Tian did not unleash a massacre or dominate the core area.
After a bout of heavy breathing, Di Tian could no longer restrain his desire. His eyes locked onto a female golden hawksbill turtle.
The next second, spring had arrived—it was the season for animals to reproduce.
However, watching these two mismatched creatures in the act of reproduction, even the slightly intelligent ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts couldn't help but show expressions of bewilderment.
Gradually, many soul beasts began to retreat, seizing the opportunity before Di Tian decided to eat them.
Though the spectacle was entertaining, life was more important—a simple truth even the less intelligent soul beasts understood.
However, some soul beasts did not leave.
It wasn't because they had absolute confidence in their strength; rather, they shared a common trait—they were all female.
Dragons are inherently lustful, a fact known to any soul beast with a bit of wisdom. Long-lived soul beasts knew that dragons were indiscriminate in their appetites, mating with anything they could.
This was why there were so many hybrid dragons among soul beasts—all products of interbreeding.
However, powerful female soul beasts typically avoided mating with hybrid dragon soul beasts because their bloodlines were too inferior, even weaker than themselves. True dragons, on the other hand, were worth considering.
For instance, Di Tian before their eyes was an excellent choice.
Although these female soul beasts considered hybrid dragon soul beasts lowly, if their offspring carried the bloodline of a true dragon, it would far surpass the potential of their previous race.
After all, the pressure exuded by Di Tian was much more terrifying than that of Tian Qing earlier—he was no ordinary hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast.
This was undoubtedly a great opportunity for them to elevate their descendants' bloodline class!
A group of female beasts silently thanked nature for this opportunity and then unhesitatingly pounced on Di Tian.
Feeling the surge of female pheromones, Di Tian indulged indiscriminately. After finishing with the golden hawksbill turtle, he turned to mount a silver wolf.
Beside him, other female beasts licked and caressed him, creating a scene that was incredibly eye-stinging.
After observing for a while, Tian Qing quickly averted his gaze. Even his mighty dragon body couldn't suppress a shudder.
It was truly disgusting—he was pure love!
Ye Wen chuckled maliciously, shrugged, and said to Tian Qing, "Later, inform the soul beasts in the other small worlds whether they want offspring with true dragon bloodlines. If they do, let them go over as well.
However, remember, don't let Di Tian exhaust himself to death. His bloodline is still quite useful."
Tian Qing looked at Ye Wen in shock. He thought Di Tian mating with soul beasts lacking mature intelligence was already insane enough, but he never expected Ye Wen to prepare another batch of high-quality females to exploit further.
After all, within the four small worlds, there were at least hundreds of female soul beasts, all hundred-thousand-year-old ones. Even with Di Tian's seven to eight hundred thousand years of cultivation, it wouldn't be enough to handle them!
"Hmm!?"
Ye Wen looked at Tian Qing with confusion. Why hadn't he acknowledged the command? Could it be that his voice was too soft?
But Tian Qing assumed Ye Wen wanted to extend the dragon bloodline breeding plan to himself. After all, he had once liked Xiao Wu, who was now Ye Wen's wife. As the former rival, according to human society TV dramas, he was a character destined to be settled later!
So Tian Qing straightened up, determined not to give Ye Wen any chance to scheme against him, and solemnly said, "Don't worry, Brother-in-law. I will faithfully convey the message."
Tian Qing silently mourned for Di Tian in his heart, but as the saying goes, "Better a dead friend than a poor monk." He exploited Di Tian mercilessly, which was much more merciful and generous compared to his previous intention to eliminate him.
Ye Wen suspected nothing and lightly patted Tian Qing again.
"Work hard on your cultivation, Tian Qing. Although you've reached the Supreme God King level, your foundation is unstable and needs further consolidation. I promise you, once you fully stabilize at this level, I'll take you to my world to witness an even more magnificent realm."
Tian Qing humbly accepted Ye Wen's grand vision and expressed his determination to work hard.
Before becoming a god, Tian Qing thought the Heavenly Tribulation every ten thousand years was an insurmountable obstacle. Now, as a God King, he could better understand the gap between himself and Ye Wen. The resentment he once held toward Ye Wen for taking Xiao Wu had long vanished, replaced by absolute respect.
Ye Wen trusted Sky Azure Bull Python completely, be it Da Ming from his own world or Tian Qing from this world. Having witnessed numerous incarnations of Sky Azure Bull Python across worlds, their mindset of not standing on the side of either soul beasts or humans but simply protecting their family was something he always approved of.
Taking advantage of this time, Ye Wen visited the two major worlds of Xuan Wu and Zhu Que.
Be it Ling Luan or Hai Wang, Ye Wen felt reassured. Though they were powerful and had some ulterior motives, Ye Wen's excessive caution had led him to impose binding contracts on them before entrusting them with significant responsibilities. This ensured they would never seize power over Douluo Planet and could only serve as its guardians, focusing solely on cultivation.
Gaining freedom was simple—just pass on the divine position.
However, the reason they possessed High-Level God King strength was entirely due to Douluo Planet's support. Without it, their strength would be mediocre. Any successor inheriting the divine position, though unable to surpass them in laws, could rely on the world's support and assistance from the other two Holy Spirits to easily defeat them.
Constructing such a mutually supportive yet restrictive relationship was why Ye Wen felt comfortable granting this "one-step-to-heaven" power to others.
Moreover—
Ye Wen turned his gaze toward the direction of the Blue Silver Forest.
A streak of golden light shot up into the sky, transforming into a sun that illuminated half of Douluo Planet, drawing exclamations from everyone.
The scene of two suns in the sky appeared once again.
Under such intense light, only divine-level experts could truly discern its core—a figure with four pairs of wings, radiating sacred and holy energy—an eight-winged angel!
Qian Renxue had broken through. Relying on her own foundation, she became the first native Douluo Planet individual to ascend to the God King level.
Ye Wen chuckled softly. "It's time to add some responsibility to her."
At this moment, Ye Wen raised his hand, using his mind to connect with Douluo Planet's plane consciousness.
"Plane consciousness, I think compared to Snow Empress, Qian Renxue is now more suitable to become your symbiotic partner."
The plane consciousness remained silent for a long while before replying to Ye Wen.
"Thank you."
As the words faded, Qian Renxue, who had been immersed in the joy of her breakthrough, suddenly furrowed her brows. She sensed an external force penetrating her, but she was powerless to resist.
Anxious, the sacred energy emanating from Qian Renxue became even more intense and scorching.
At this moment, Ye Wen's telepathy reached her. "Relax, Angel God. This is an opportunity for you, but also a shackle I've placed on you. Accept this power now."
Hearing Ye Wen's words, Qian Renxue decisively stopped resisting. After all, her progress was given by him, and she couldn't overpower him. What choice did she have but to obey?
But when Qian Renxue fully connected with this external force and felt its vastness, akin to an entire world, she was stunned. What kind of opportunity was this!?
Soon, however, Qian Renxue dispelled these distracting thoughts. She had to fully immerse her spirit in this fusion; otherwise, she feared her consciousness would be overwhelmed by the massive influx of information, turning her into a puppet of this power.
Ye Wen watched the scene with a smile.
Symbiosis with the plane consciousness referred to the state of Snow Empress in Ye Wen's own world.
She was both herself and the plane consciousness, each with independent awareness yet one entity—a deeply mysterious state.
In this state, the plane consciousness truly gained subjective awareness and could harness the God King-level power of Qian Renxue, no longer at the mercy of others.
And Qian Renxue didn't lose out either. The first benefit was that she was now connected to the world, enjoying the immense divine power it bestowed, causing her strength to skyrocket.
For example, though Qian Renxue had just broken through to the initial God King level, with the plane consciousness's assistance, her cultivation surged rapidly, reaching the High-Level God King stage. If not for the overly obscure laws of the Supreme God King, Ye Wen was certain Qian Renxue would have already broken through to the Holy Master level.
However, Ye Wen believed that with Qian Renxue's talent, it was only a matter of time.
This was just the most superficial benefit of the symbiosis between the plane consciousness and Qian Renxue. The true advantage was that Qian Renxue could use the plane consciousness to grasp the authority over Douluo Planet's laws.
Now, even the Four Divine Beasts Array posed no threat to her. Conversely, if Qian Renxue wanted to interfere with the array, it couldn't effectively counter her. The array, disrupted by conflicting laws, would leave the Four Divine Beasts as mere individual God King-level experts.
However, Ye Wen was confident. With his intervention and guidance, Qian Renxue wouldn't commit such outrageous acts unless she wanted to destroy her own path or a future generation of the Four Divine Beasts went rogue and attempted something like a rebellion.
But if such a situation arose, even if Qian Renxue didn't act, the plane consciousness, with its complete will, could prevent such chaos.
It could be said that Ye Wen had laid all the groundwork for Douluo Planet to evolve into the future Douluo civilization. As long as they didn't court disaster, it could become the next Douluo civilization like Huo Yu'er's.
Thinking of this, Ye Wen felt it was time to pass on the technology of divine position sharing and divine armor to this world. By then, he could truly become a hands-off overseer.
Thus, Ye Wen proceeded methodically. Meanwhile, his own Douluo world remained devoid of the chaos he had anticipated, making him somewhat impatient.
Could it be that he was wrong? Had Kindness and Evil truly fled, leaving no disturbances behind?
However, Ye Wen soon shook off these thoughts and calmed his mind.
Regardless of Kindness and Evil's presence, a Douluo civilization that had developed for tens of thousands of years was due for a cleansing. Otherwise, even with Snow Empress suppressing things, internal divisions were inevitable whenever Ye Wen disappeared.
Without an absolute powerhouse to suppress them, a group of strong individuals would inevitably vie for supremacy.
Thus, Ye Wen slowly arranged the restructuring of Douluo civilization's power structure while living a peaceful life in this world, shamelessly frolicking with Huo Yu'er and others daily.
During this time, Ye Wen captured another Golden Dragon King and Silver Dragon King from another world, combining them to form the Dragon God's body for Huo Yu'er to devour and refine, testing whether it could help her break through to the King of God Kings.
Facts proved that Ye Wen's approach was indeed effective.
As the self-nurtured creator god of Douluo Planet, the Dragon God's body undoubtedly bore the highest level of creation laws. Unfortunately, the Dragon God's poor judgment had squandered such an unbeatable hand.
After Huo Yu'er extracted the essence and discarded the dross, her cycle laws finally reached completion.
Huo Yu'er realized that the essence of the cycle was birth and extinction, perfectly aligning with the Dragon God's creation and destruction but without being so extreme. Creation and destruction were merely processes within the cycle.
Ultimately, Huo Yu'er comprehended the pinnacle of the cycle—Non-Interference of the Supreme Way.
Thus, to Ye Wen's astonished gaze, Huo Yu'er disappeared.
However, Ye Wen's law perception detected Huo Yu'er's omnipresent aura throughout heaven and earth, leaving him utterly amazed.
