CHAPTER 244: CHAPTER 244: RAKSHASA: I CAN FINALLY ENTER THE DOULUO STAR, WATCH ME WREAK HAVOC!

"Is there anything you need me to do?"

Qian Renxue slowly shook her head, hugging Lin Feng from behind. Her arms intertwined around his neck, and she rested her head on his shoulder, whispering softly, "You just need to wait for me here. Wait for me to become stronger, strong enough to stand by your side and protect everything we have together. You’ve become so powerful recently, I’m struggling to keep up."

Lin Feng opened his mouth and said in a low voice, "I can help you. You should know, the Nine Revolutions to Godhood..."

"Hmm?" Qian Renxue kneaded Lin Feng’s cheeks with both hands and huffed coquettishly, "That would be relying on you too much. Not to mention I already have a god’s inheritance and was 19 soul power levels ahead of you at the very beginning. If I still need you to help me break through at every moment, would I still be Qian Renxue? Why do you think I insisted on absorbing the Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Profound Ice Marrow by myself back then? It was precisely because I didn’t want to rely on you to solve all my problems. Now, I’ll give you a timeline: break through to Soul Douluo in two months; in three years, ascend to Titled Douluo and then become a god!"

Lin Feng smiled and nodded. "Is the origin essence left by the first Angel God still enough? If your divine power is insufficient after the god trial, my True Qi can serve as a supplement."

"Of course, it’s enough at least until the final ninth trial," she said, leaning completely against Lin Feng, inhaling her man’s scent. She suddenly said, "Activate the aura of your Law Body."

Lin Feng silently complied.

The entire room instantly fell silent, and a fresh, natural aura filled the air. Qian Renxue slightly narrowed her eyes, seeming to enjoy the sensation immensely. She let out a soft laugh, "What a magical physique. I feel like just by hugging you like this, my comprehension of the laws is showing signs of improvement."

She greedily sniffed. "When I fell back then, I was after all in a state of utter destitution with little divine power left. The foundation for the god trials was initially forged through the Godly Bones, which is the Angel Set. So for the final ninth trial, the divine power probably won’t be enough. You can help me then, alright? While I am still capable, let me grow on my own, okay?"

Lin Feng nodded, playing with the jade-like hand in his. "Speaking of which, do all final god examinations require that kind of sacrifice?"

Qian Renxue slowly shook her head. "Of course not. Ultimately, divine power and the power of faith are the internal driving forces of the god trials. When the first Angel God fell and left behind the god trials, she already knew that the final energy would be insufficient. That’s why she set the rule that the High Priest needed to be sacrificed. To have a powerhouse from the mortal world receive a bestowal of divine power from a god, granting them a deep understanding of the corresponding god’s abilities and laws, along with their own century’s worth of foundation, which is then sacrificed to the inheritor of the god position. This is a method most gods in the God Realm choose because it can greatly save their own divine power and power of faith. Of course, there are still many generous gods who will directly choose to transfer their own power and divine artifacts, without needing such methods."

Lin Feng nodded. It seemed a certain Sea God gave too much during the god trials and couldn’t quite handle the ninth trial, huh?

"By the way, with your physique, does hugging you like this count as a form of cultivation?"

Qian Renxue had moved in front of Lin Feng, her jade-like legs wrapped around his waist, her arms hooked around his neck. She leaned back slightly, smiling charmingly.

Hearing this, a playful smile touched the corner of Lin Feng’s lips. He wrapped his hands around Qian Renxue’s waist, his tone teasing, "Oh? In that case, should I start charging a fee? After all, this isn’t a ’cultivation’ method just anyone can enjoy."

Qian Renxue chuckled, her eyes sparkling with a sly light. "A fee? You’d better think carefully. I’ll be paying in my own way, you know. Aowu~" As she spoke, her warm lips gently pressed against the side of Lin Feng’s neck, sending a shiver through him.

The atmosphere in the room gradually became charming and ambiguous. Qian Renxue’s movements were gentle and delicate, her small, pink tongue lightly kissing and licking Lin Feng’s lips, neck, and behind his ears.

"Is the fee enough?"

Qian Renxue looked at him teasingly, shifting her hips inadvertently, and shot Lin Feng a shy glance. "Or is this just the deposit?"

Lin Feng coughed lightly. "It’s enough."

Qian Renxue nodded gently, nestling in his arms, enjoying the peace and warmth. After a moment, she said softly, "Xiao Feng, there’s actually something I want to discuss with you."

"What is it?" Lin Feng asked, his gaze soft as he watched her.

"It’s about Qing Xuan," Qian Renxue said slowly. "Did Sister Dong talk to you about her?"

Lin Feng’s heart skipped a beat. "She did. But why do even you think that way? To actually agree with what Dong’er said?"

Qian Renxue rested her head on his shoulder. "If you like her, then go for her. From the moment I let Sister Ling Yuan be with you, I knew it would be difficult for me to refuse new sisters joining in the future. Sometimes I wonder, if I hadn’t let Sister Ling Yuan join, would I have been more ruthless in the days to come? But I probably wouldn’t have had the heart to be. Not just Sister Ling Yuan, but even Sister Dong, or even Gu Yuena, I don’t feel that much rejection towards them. Perhaps it’s because I know that no matter what, the most important place in your heart will always be reserved for me. Qing Xuan is a good girl. I can see her feelings for you, and her status and abilities will be a great help to us in the God Realm in the future. I hope we can face the storms of the future together. With more strength comes more security."

A good girl... at an age to be a celestial immortal.

"Xue’er..." Lin Feng gently combed through Qian Renxue’s smooth, long hair. After a moment of silence, he said softly, "If it makes you sad, punish me."

Qian Renxue snorted lightly. "Alright, since you want it, I’ll punish you properly. I have a chain, come forth!"

She suddenly stood up, and a great light shone from her hand, transforming into six angelic chains that bound Lin Feng tightly from head to toe. A golden light transformed into a long whip and cracked against Lin Feng’s body. It didn’t hurt, but it was very humiliating.

Qian Renxue’s cheeks were also flushed, as if she felt both shy and stimulated by such an act.

"Why don’t you scream a little?" She tilted her head.

"Never!" Lin Feng’s mouth twitched as he resolutely refused.

"Oh."

Qian Renxue put away the long whip, but the chains were not retracted. Instead, they tightened, bundling him into a ball. Qian Renxue straddled him.

"Xue’er, why did you say she has feelings for me?"

Qian Renxue casually pulled at the lotus leaf of the rice dumpling below her. "You can’t tell?"

"...I can’t."

"Hmph, hmph. She took the initiative to find Sister Ling Yuan before. From that moment on, she was already hooked. Maybe she doesn’t even know it herself, but I’m sure you already have a place in her heart, just like Ah Yin. After her soul recovered and she was brought back to Spirit City, I knew she had already fallen for you. Why do you think I indulged Ah Yin in staying by your side? The one who understands you the most can only be me, not even Bibi Dong or Gu Yuena! They, who pride themselves on being the main wife and your owner, how could they truly understand you better than I do?!"

Sister Ling Yuan... what earth-shattering thing did she do again...

As she spoke, her actions became rougher, and she quickly peeled away the lotus leaves of the rice dumpling in her hands, saying viciously, "This is your punishment. You are not allowed to break free from the chains!"

***

Qian Renxue went into seclusion, and Ling Yuan also chose to go into seclusion at this time. Her soul power had already reached level 94, and the bottleneck had already loosened. She was just one step away from becoming a Super Douluo.

After being intimate with Lin Feng for a few days, Ah Yin also chose to go to her ancestral land to improve her strength. Before leaving, Lin Feng transferred the True Qi he had accumulated into her body, while Gu Yuena split off a piece from the huge Life Gold’s main body and gave it to Ah Yin.

In their ancestral land, there was a secret technique of the Blue Silver Clan, and her improvement would be even faster. Lin Feng had already condensed the first eight soul meridians for her, and her cultivation speed would only soar.

"First, go to the Lake of Life deep in the Star Dou Great Forest and have Di Tian send one or two fierce beasts to protect you. You can decide on the candidates yourself," Gu Yuena said.

Ah Yin nodded gently. "How about... Bi Ji and Zi Ji? I’m quite good friends with them. We had a pleasant chat at the Lake of Life before."

"Alright."

Lin Feng took Ah Yin’s hand. "I’ll go with you. It’s a round trip of nearly a thousand miles. If you go alone, it will probably take some time. With me, it’s different. Space jumps are a trivial matter for me now."

Ah Yin smiled gently, her arms wrapping around Lin Feng’s shoulders. "Okay, then I’ll have to trouble you, Xiao Feng."

With a flash, the two of them disappeared from the spot, leaving only a faint spatial fluctuation. In a flash, they had already appeared outside Spirit City.

Ripples appeared in the air, and flashes of light flickered, the traces of Lin Feng using the laws of space. Without stopping, they set off at sunrise, and before noon, they had crossed hundreds of miles to the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Deep within the Star Dou Great Forest, above the Lake of Life. The lake’s surface sparkled, reflecting the lush surrounding forest, a scene full of life.

Lin Feng and Ah Yin slowly descended. Di Tian’s figure immediately walked out from the lake shore. He was a middle-aged man with golden hair in a black robe. The moment his golden eyes saw Lin Feng, his pupils shrank violently. He... he could no longer see through this guy?

How is this possible?! How long has it been since he took our master away, how could he have improved to this extent?!

Judging by his aura, he should only have the soul power of a human in their 80s, but that faint pressure was something he had only ever felt from his master. This guy, god-level strength?

Hiss—

"Di Tian, Ah Yin needs to go to her ancestral land for a period of seclusion to improve her strength. Please arrange for Bi Ji and Zi Ji to protect her," Lin Feng directly stated his purpose.

Ah Yin smiled embarrassedly.

Di Tian looked at Lin Feng, his hands itching for a fight.

You should know, he had been annoyed for a long time after being at a disadvantage when he suppressed his strength to spar with Lin Feng last time. Later, when Lin Feng directly took Gu Yuena away, he was even more resentful, cursing that damn human kid countless times in his heart.

This time, seeing the mystery surrounding this guy, his hands were really itching. He wanted to let loose and have a good fight with him, mainly to vent his anger.

Remembering Gu Yuena’s instructions, his tone was a bit awkward, "Since the mistress has spoken, naturally it can be done."

The corner of Lin Feng’s mouth twitched fiercely, while Ah Yin let out a "pfft" of laughter beside him.

"Stop, stop, stop!" Lin Feng quickly waved his hand. "Na’er is no longer a match for me now. You can call her mistress in the future. You can call me Lin Feng, or you can call me ’Your Excellency’."

Di Tian was silent, his eyes narrowed. "Are you joking?"

"It’s true."

Di Tian took a deep breath. "How old are you this year?"

"Nineteen."

Di Tian was in disarray in the wind, his eyes flickering constantly. "Do you think I’m stupid? A nineteen-year-old god-level expert, why don’t you just become a God-King?!"

"If you don’t believe me, we can have another fight later. This time, you don’t need to suppress your strength. Remember to call me ’Your Excellency’ after the fight," Lin Feng said with a smile.

"Alright, then let’s see if you have the strength."

Di Tian nodded and then turned to call out to the distance. In a short while, two elegant figures walked out of the lake. It was Bi Ji and Zi Ji. When they saw Ah Yin, their faces showed pleasant surprise, and they hurried forward to exchange pleasantries.

"Looking at your skin and spirit, you’ve been living comfortably, huh?" Zi Ji teased.

Bi Ji, on the other hand, smiled gently and looked at Lin Feng and Di Tian in the air, asking doubtfully, "What are they doing? Why did they summon us? Is there something important?"

Ah Yin rolled her eyes at Zi Ji, looked at the two in the air, and smiled faintly, "Xiao Feng wants to change his title and is about to go spar with Di Tian."

"Title? What title?"

The corner of Ah Yin’s mouth lifted slightly. "In the future, you will have to call him ’Your Excellency’."

"Huh?" Zi Ji’s eyes widened. "Didn’t the master want us to call him, um..." She raised her eyebrows. "Can he beat the master now?"

Ah Yin nodded. "In an extreme burst, not in a normal state, but he’s not happy being called mistress all the time."

"That’s true, even I feel it’s strange. But..." Zi Ji sighed faintly. "I really didn’t expect that in such a short time, he has become so powerful. Qiu’er’s destiny trajectory was not wrong after all."

"Should we move further out?"

"Naturally."

A gold and a black streak of light transformed into long rainbows and fled to the horizon, instantly moving away from the Lake of Life to a clearing on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest. Here, ancient trees towered, but because it was on the edge, it lacked the dense spiritual energy and dangerous aura of the core area, making it an ideal dueling ground.

"Come on, let me see what progress you’ve made during this time." Di Tian clenched his fists, his body exuding a strong will to fight, and his golden eyes flickered with a fiery light.

He no longer suppressed his strength. A powerful aura pressed down on Lin Feng like a mountain, and the surrounding air seemed to solidify under this force.

Lin Feng smiled faintly, the True Qi in his body surging, and the laws of space surrounding him, easily dispelling Di Tian’s imposing pressure. "As you wish, Di Tian. Let us have a good fight today."

Before the words were finished, the two moved at the same time. Di Tian transformed into a golden flash of lightning, his speed astonishing. He threw a punch, the air exploding, carrying a world-destroying power. Lin Feng, on the other hand, used the laws of space as a guide.

His figure flickered left and right, as if shuttling through different spatial dimensions, easily dodging Di Tian’s attacks, and in the gaps, he seized the opportunity, using his finger as a sword, to draw out spatial cracks and counterattack.

The battle was extremely fierce. Every clash made the surrounding space tremble, the trees swayed, and sand and stones flew. Every attack from Di Tian contained extreme dominance, while Lin Feng’s response seemed effortless. The use of the laws of space made him seem to be everywhere and nowhere to be found.

As time went on, Di Tian’s attacks gradually became more frantic. He was clearly spurred on to a stronger fighting spirit by Lin Feng’s composure. However, no matter how much he increased his power, he could never touch the corner of Lin Feng’s clothes. Instead, under Lin Feng’s repeated counterattacks, he began to feel increasing pressure.

A terrifying aura began to gather. In half of the sky, a phantom dragon claw appeared. After testing the waters, Di Tian understood that Lin Feng probably really had god-level strength and directly intended to use his strongest move.

"Dragon God’s Claw? You use a divine skill, I use a divine artifact. That’s very reasonable, right?"

Under Di Tian’s shocked gaze, Lin Feng smiled, his fingers forming a sword sign in front of him, and he shouted, "Sword, come!"

"Clang—"

The spatial ripples shattered, and the Hanguang sword suddenly appeared in front of him.

The sword was about three feet long, its body as transparent as crystal, with a faint blue light and ice flowers surrounding it. The moment it appeared, the surrounding temperature dropped instantly, as if even the air was frozen. The Hanguang sword in his hand now bloomed with a dazzling light, facing Di Tian’s Dragon God’s Claw from afar. Two completely different forces collided in the air, creating ripples.

Feeling the aura of Lin Feng, who was now beginning to gather power, Di Tian sucked in a cold breath, but the fighting spirit in his eyes did not recede. "I acknowledge you, Lin Feng! The master was not wrong about you. Come on!"

***

The fierce beasts did not see who won this battle, but Di Tian did indeed make them change their address for Lin Feng to ’Your Excellency’, and then he locked himself in the depths of the Lake of Life, saying he was going to cultivate...

Blue Silver Forest.

"If there’s a problem, just come and trigger the divine sense crystal in your hand. It will send a message to me."

Ah Yin nodded gently, with reluctance also in her eyes. "Don’t worry, Xiao Feng, I will become stronger as soon as possible and fight alongside you."

Bi Ji gave him a gentle smile, while Zi Ji looked at him thoughtfully with a teasing gaze.

As Ah Yin and the others stepped into the center of the Blue Silver Forest, Lin Feng set up multiple layers of protection around to ensure her seclusion would not be disturbed. Then, his figure flashed again and returned to Spirit City.

To Lin Feng’s surprise, not long after he returned, Qing Xuan took the initiative to find him and asked him to walk with her by the lake.

"Qing Xuan, I heard from Xue’er that you seem to have something on your mind recently?" Lin Feng asked softly, his gaze concerned as he watched her.

Qing Xuan was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, then she shook her head gently. "It’s nothing, just been thinking about some things more recently."

"Really?" Lin Feng asked. "If you’re willing, you can tell me. Maybe I can help you share some of the burden."

Qing Xuan bit her lower lip. "It’s nothing major. I asked you to walk with me, so just walk with me. Why so many words? Be quiet!"

Lin Feng shrugged. "Alright then."

God Realm.

Rakshasa Shrine. The enchanting Rakshasa God’s eyes suddenly flew open, a flash of excitement in them.

"Finally, Bibi Dong has broken through. I finally have a reason to enter the Douluo Star. Watch how I teach her a lesson!"
