Chapter 206 The way out
Dugu Jianling: "Kid, where do we go now? We definitely can't go to the Earth Kingdom, and the other assassins might not submit to us either."
"The Earth Kingdom is constantly at war, so going there is absolutely out of the question. The appearance of the Demon Thousand Paths has disrupted my thoughts, but it has also given me an idea of a shortcut," Yun Muhan sneered.
“Shortcut? Your situation is too special. It took you two years to advance from the late Nascent Soul stage to the mid-Deity Transformation stage. This gap cannot be bridged by a shortcut. As for the word ‘shortcut,’ I only have three methods.”
Dugu Jianling pondered for a moment and continued, "I originally thought the time was not right, but now that the Demon Realm has its eye on us, there is nothing to hesitate about. One reason is the inheritance of the gods, which can be seen in the inheritance of Long Duan Du Xuan. Without the inheritance of the Dragon God, we would never have been able to break through to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm so quickly."
"Secondly, one can become a demon, absorbing demonic energy, drinking human blood, and entering demon caves. However, once one becomes a demon, one cannot gain a foothold in the realm of gods and can only become an enemy of the gods."
Yun Muhan countered, "Do you remember what Fan Chen said back then? He said I would fall into demonic possession, and that I would definitely have a place on the Demon Sealing List. Falling into demonic possession is wrong, but the human heart is just as easily swayed."
Yun Muhan ignored Dugu Jianling and muttered to himself, "Do you know why my human form was only fifteen years old back then? My entire life has been dedicated to the Dragon Clan. I have lived for the Dragon Clan for three thousand years."
“Back then, I ignored everyone’s advice and forcibly destroyed all my cultivation, using my physical body as a supplement and my human form as the main body. It took me fifteen years to reach the God Lord Realm. My efforts and my desperate cultivation were not for others, but for myself, so that I could live again, break free from the shackles, and shatter those damned constraints.”
Dugu Jianling: "Fifteen years? God Lord Realm? If I hadn't personally seen your memories, I would never have believed a single word of it."
"...When did you see my memories? Could it be...the Sunset Altar?"
“That’s right… I was wondering why you said you were reborn and how you knew about the world’s strongest people. Until before… you said you were from the future. At that time, I was very confused, but my confusion was replaced by excitement.”
Dugu Jianling suddenly realized: "So it's because your memories are composed of two bodies, so even if I obtain all the memories of your original body, which is human form, I will never be able to associate them with you being from the future."
Dugu Jianling added, "Right now, your human form is primary and your dragon form is secondary. No one can access your true memories because your dragon form is actually just an empty shell, while your true memories exist in the distant future."
Yun Muhan praised, "Dugu Jianling is indeed clever. That's why I not only know the true purpose of the magic core, but also know about battles big and small."
Dugu Jianling asked in confusion, "Then what is the shortcut?"
Yun Muhan shouted firmly, "Demon God Pill!"
Dugu Jianling was very puzzled: "Demon God Pill? I've never heard of it before."
"It's normal not to have heard of it. In my previous life's historical records, after the great war between immortals, demons, and gods ended in the primordial era, the bridge that formed the three realms was composed of eighteen representatives of immortals, demons, and gods. Yi was the final 'victor'."
"The God of Destruction sacrificed himself to create the Central Plains, which later became the Demon Realm. The Demon God Pill was successfully created, and the number of Demon Gods was increased from a maximum of five in history to a maximum of fifty-four."
Dugu Jianling asked in confusion, "So? You want to refine the Demon God Pill and become a Demon God?"
"No, no, before going to the realm of gods, one must leave oneself a way out."
"This escape route may also become... a dead end. I am not a coward. People in the God Realm are not necessarily kind. This escape route must exist. Everyone except me must be on guard."
