According to the script, isn’t a person supposed to endure countless hardships and escape death nine times before earning the favor of the gods?
He had just sacrificed himself and was still loitering near the entrance of the novice village.
How did he directly attract the attention of max-level big shots?
What was this?
A godly position handed out for free at the very start?
And it was buy one, get one free?
This was completely disregarding the rules!
“I am the enforcer of the Divine Realm, the God of Destruction.”
While Ling Ye was still in a daze, the God of Destruction spoke first.
His dark red eyes stared intently at Ling Ye.
His voice was cold as iron, carrying a sense of judgment: “Spirit Beast, you have quite the nerve! Daring to seize the body of this human girl? Are you courting death?!”
Boom!
With his questioning, the entire mental world trembled violently, as if it would collapse in the next second.
“Destruction, don’t frighten the child.”
The Goddess of Life gently tugged at her husband’s sleeve, then took a step forward.
With her movement, an incredibly dense divine power of Life surged forth, instantly calming the turmoil in the mental world and gently enveloping the unconscious Ye Lingling.
“Wake up, child.”
Nourished by the divine power of Life, Ye Lingling’s originally pale consciousness quickly regained its color, and she slowly opened her eyes.
“I am the Goddess of Life.” The Goddess of Life looked at the awakened girl, her eyes filled with maternal love.
She then turned to Ling Ye.
Though her tone was gentle, it carried a hint of deterrence and pressure: “Spirit Beast filled with the aura of Destruction, what exactly is your purpose in infiltrating this little girl’s mental world? If you intend to harm her, I will show no mercy!”
Faced with the successive questions from the two God-Kings, Ling Ye felt his throat go dry and found himself speechless for a moment.
How exactly was he supposed to explain this?
Should he say he was a transmigrator?
Should he say he originally wanted to develop quietly but was forced by circumstances to sacrifice himself?
Or should he say that he actually wanted to cultivate this little girl into a god so he could follow her and seize a divine position?
Ling Ye’s brain spun at high speed, thinking about how to bluff… oh no, explain.
The God of Destruction, whose divine eyes seemed capable of seeing through all illusions, suddenly narrowed his gaze.
The God of Destruction stepped forward.
His terrifying divine consciousness swept over Ling Ye from inside out like a scanner.
His tone was filled with shock and confusion:
“Your soul’s origin… is actually human?! And the destructive power within this little girl actually originates entirely from you?!”
The moment these words were spoken, even the Goddess of Life was astonished.
Outwardly appearing as a Spirit Beast, yet the soul originated from a human?
How was this possible?!
At that moment, Ye Lingling, who had just awakened, finally regained full consciousness.
She gazed at those two beings radiating infinite divine power.
Although her heart was filled with awe, she mustered her courage and floated in front of Ling Ye, spreading her arms to protect him.
“Lord God-Kings, please do not harm him!”
The girl’s clear voice echoed in the mental world, filled with determination and pleading: “He is Brother Ling Ye, the 100,000-year Destruction Begonia Emperor who sacrificed himself for me. He has no intention of harming me, nor of seizing my body. He wants to pass on his power to me, cultivate me into a god, and break our family’s curse!”
“Sacrifice? Cultivate into a god?”
Hearing these words, the God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life exchanged a glance.
The hostility in their eyes instantly dissipated, replaced by an even deeper interest.
“I understand…” The Goddess of Life suddenly saw the light.
Her gaze towards Ling Ye visibly softened.
“A 100,000-year Spirit Beast possessing a human soul, willing to sacrifice himself to help a human girl become a god… Such a bond and determination are truly rare.”
“Hmph, brat, you do have some foresight after all!” The God of Destruction snorted coldly.
Although his tone remained tsundere, the appreciation revealed in his eyes was hard to conceal: “Since it’s for cultivating this girl, I shall spare you. Besides…”
Here, the God of Destruction paused, his gaze sweeping back and forth between Ling Ye and Ye Lingling.
A meaningful smile curled at the corner of his mouth: “Two souls are even better! One excels at Destruction, the other at Life. This is simply a match made in heaven, perfectly solving the greatest challenge of inheriting two divine positions!”
“Indeed.” The Goddess of Life also revealed a satisfied smile.
She looked at Ye Lingling as if admiring an unpolished piece of peerless jade.
“Child, since you two possess such an opportunity and determination, Destruction and I will help you.”
As her words fell, the two God-Kings simultaneously raised their hands.
Two dazzling beams of divine light shot into the foreheads of Ye Lingling and Ling Ye respectively.
Hum—!
Ye Lingling felt two extremely profound streams of information appear in her mind.
[Nine Trials of Destruction — Awaiting Activation.]
“This is…” Ye Lingling’s eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at the information about the divine trials appearing in her mind.
“This is the key to the Divine Realm, and also our test for you,” the Goddess of Life explained gently.
“When you complete all the trials, you may ascend to the Divine Realm and inherit our divine positions.”
“However, remember not to be too ambitious,” the God of Destruction timely poured a bucket of cold water on them, though his tone carried a hint of anticipation.
“Your current strength is still too weak. You haven’t even reached the threshold for the first trial. Only when this girl’s Spirit Power breaks through to Rank 31 will the divine trials officially begin.”
“Rank 31…” Ling Ye’s heart shook.
Ye Lingling was already a Rank 30 Spirit Master.
As long as she absorbed a Spirit Ring, her rank would surely increase significantly.
Breaking through Rank 31 was only a matter of time.
“Thank you for your grace, Lord God-Kings!” Ling Ye reacted swiftly, immediately pulling Ye Lingling into a respectful bow.
Only a fool would miss such an opportunity to latch onto powerful thighs!
“Good. We will await you in the Divine Realm.”
After completing all this, the figures of the two God-Kings began to gradually fade.
Before leaving, the God of Destruction cast a deep glance at Ling Ye, a glance that seemed to contain some profound meaning:
“Brat, do well. Don’t disappoint me. If this girl dies young, I will absolutely hold you fully responsible!”
“Absolutely! Absolutely!” Ling Ye loudly pounded his chest in assurance.
As the two divine lights shot into the sky and disappeared beyond the horizon, the mental world returned to calm.
Ye Lingling stood rooted to the spot, as if still immersed in a dream: “Brother Ling Ye… were we… were we really chosen by gods?”
“Yes, silly girl.” Ling Ye gazed in the direction where the two God-Kings had vanished and sighed with emotion: “We have inherited the legacies of the Goddess of Life and the God of Destruction—two God-Kings.”
With these two major figures granting them legacies and divine trials, the path to ascension for him and Ye Lingling was practically set in stone.
Ye Lingling was ecstatic.
She actually had the chance to become a god!
Sensing that Ye Qingxian outside was about to wake up, Ling Ye reminded her: “Lingling, focus your mind. Your mother is about to wake up.”
“Mm.” Ye Lingling nodded firmly.
Before leaving the mental world, she stepped forward and tightly embraced Ling Ye.
“Brother Ling Ye, thank you. You are my greatest opportunity.”
