Every normal soul master knows that the optimal soul ring configuration for a Title Douluo is two yellow, two purple, and five black.
This means two hundred-year soul rings, two thousand-year soul rings, and five ten-thousand-year soul rings. This is the standard for a normal Title Douluo.
Of course, for exceptionally powerful individuals, it could be two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red.
Two hundred-year soul rings, two thousand-year soul rings, four ten-thousand-year soul rings, and one hundred-thousand-year soul ring. This is the absolute limit for a Title Douluo.
Yes, this is the limit.
Once absorbed, soul rings don't change. The age of the soul ring remains the same as when it was absorbed.
If it weren't for Oscar's soul ring's age increasing, allowing his second soul ring to break through to the thousand-year level, no one would have noticed his "uniqueness."
He had planned to reveal his true self, gain the support of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, and secure his freedom.
But after Oscar released his martial soul, Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi remained completely calm, not even showing a hint of surprise. This left Oscar puzzled.
What's going on?
His second soul ring was a thousand-year one. Didn't they have any questions?
"Oscar, go back."
"Rongrong is a bit… well, not the sharpest tool in the shed. Please bear with her. It's our fault for spoiling her."
"Now, it's too late to change her."
After a long pause, Ning Fengzhi finally spoke.
Hearing this, Oscar was dumbfounded. Wasn't he a god's inheritor?
Did Ning Fengzhi not know what a god's inheritor was?
He had the potential to become a god!
A god!
His soul rings' ages had increased, and they weren't even surprised?
Didn't they want to ask how he did it?
And what did he mean by Rongrong's "not the sharpest tool in the shed"?
Even if that were true, was this the time to talk about it?
He was a god's inheritor, someone with the potential to become a god, and this was the treatment he got?
Oscar's mind was filled with questions. He felt a bit out of place.
When Gu Rong noticed something was off, his surprise and shock were written all over his face.
But now, Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin were completely calm, even indifferent. This made Oscar feel somewhat disrespected.
A god's inheritor, being disrespected!
Wasn't this the ultimate goal of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda?
Oscar was mistaken. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's ultimate goal wasn't to become gods or to have many Title Douluos.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's goal had always been to be the best in the world!
Before the Clear Sky Sect went into hiding, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda was second in the world.
After the Clear Sky Sect went into hiding, a "Level 98" Super Douluo emerged, founding the Body Sect, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda remained second in the world.
Ning Fengzhi broke through the limits, obtained a god's inheritance, and thought they had finally risen, but in the end, they were still second in the world.
I'm tired, let's just end it already!
In the face of the Body Sect's situation, what use would it be for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda to have one, two, or even three second-level gods?
The difference between one level of a Title Douluo is already terrifying, and the difference between one level of a god could be the gap between a peak first-level god and a god king.
"Sect Master, you might have some misunderstanding about god's inheritors…"
Oscar suspected that Ning Fengzhi had some misconceptions about god's inheritors and didn't understand their future.
But before Oscar could finish, Ning Fengzhi shook his head and didn't say much. A nine-colored glazed pagoda appeared in his hand.
Yellow, purple, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black—nine soul rings quickly rose from beneath his feet.
This scene left Oscar stunned.
Yellow, purple???
A golden light flashed in Oscar's eyes as he suddenly understood.
Gu Rong blinked, finding it hard to believe.
He never expected that Ning Fengzhi was also a god's inheritor!
After a quick observation, Gu Rong noticed that Chen Xin didn't show much emotion. He realized that he was the only one kept in the dark!
Fine, fine, fine!
So, they treated Gu Rong as an outsider, huh?
Of course, he only thought this in his heart. If they really treated him as an outsider, Ning Fengzhi wouldn't have revealed it in front of him.
"Oscar, obtaining the inheritance of the God of Food is your fortune. You should work hard and strive to become a god as soon as possible."
"The previous conditions remain unchanged. If you want to go out and walk around, that's fine, but Rongrong can only come out after you become a god."
Ning Fengzhi spoke with a serious expression.
"Rongrong is a bit… well, not all there. You mustn't tell her about your god's inheritance, or she might go crazy and offend someone even we, as gods, can't afford to offend."
"After all, she's my daughter. It's my fault for not raising her properly."
Hearing this, Oscar opened his mouth but hesitated to speak.
He and Ning Rongrong were now husband and wife, so he knew her personality well.
What Ning Fengzhi said left him deeply puzzled.
What kind of person could make Ning Fengzhi so wary?
After all, Ning Fengzhi was also a god's inheritor, just like him.
Wait, he had just accurately mentioned the God of Food!
Oscar's eyes widened in disbelief.
This was terrifying, even horrifying!
Ning Fengzhi's inheritance might even be higher than his.
If even Ning Fengzhi was wary of someone, there were only one or two people it could be.
Either the one from the Spirit Hall or the one from the Body Sect!
"I might as well tell you…"
Ning Fengzhi recounted the events of that morning, leaving Oscar and Gu Rong stunned.
Well, well, well. They thought that after becoming gods, they could finally stand tall and not have to bow and scrape like before. But now, it seemed their backs were broken.
Before becoming gods, there was still some hope.
But once you reach the limit of being a god, is there any path beyond that?
So, after becoming a god, you lose all opportunities and are forever suppressed.
Oscar fell into deep thought. He had planned to help his brothers from Shrek and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda after becoming a god.
As for the Body Sect, he didn't hate them, but he didn't like them either. At most, he would just ignore them.
But now, it seemed he had been too naive.
That person, even when disguised as an ordinary person…
Perhaps, in his eyes, an ordinary person should have the strength of a Level 98 or even Level 99.
"Sect Master, I understand."
"When there's no one around, you can call me father-in-law."
"After all, Rongrong is my daughter, even if she's become this… erratic."
"Yes, Father-in-law."
Ning Rongrong, erratic?
She was indeed a bit erratic, but her mind wasn't broken. She was still the same Ning Rongrong as before.
After being taken care of by Oscar, her craziness had only intensified.
Of course, when facing Oscar, she would still restrain herself. She knew that Oscar was the last person who truly loved her.
