Secrets of the Mainland

Chapter 100 Secrets of the Mainland

These are nothing short of parasites on the Douluo Continent!

"Fearing the resurgence of soul beasts, they took away the core of Douluo Continent and established many rules to restrict soul beasts, as well as humans!"

"Restricting humans?"

"The human population is growing too fast, and the resources of the divine realm are limited, so they need to control it!"

"Aren't they human too? Why are they doing this!" Jerry asked.

"It's just human selfishness!"

"By the way, you should know how humans came into being in this world, right?" Jerry asked.

He had thought about this question for a long time. The birth of humankind, this world is clearly not an evolution of apes, and there is also something called Martial Soul. How did it come about?

"The birth of humankind, haha! Jerry, you should know that spirit beasts choose to transform into human form in order to cultivate to a higher level, right!"

"Well, and then!"

"Many soul beasts, after cultivating to the point of human form, are limited by their innate talents. Then these people marry, have children, and pass on their bloodline!"

"After transforming into human form, it seems they could reproduce more easily, so their development was rapid, and their bloodline power became the martial souls we know today. As their bloodline weakened, they could no longer transform back into their soul beast bodies, and thus, humans came into being!"

"A 100,000-year-old soul beast can transform into human form. Wasn't that little girl, Xiao Wu, an example? Her bloodline isn't high enough, and her talent is limited. If nothing unexpected happens, she probably won't be able to transform back into her soul beast form!"

"Wait, what about those Soul Masters with Weapon Souls?"

"Those were bloodline weapons researched by people with weak bloodlines. They fused them with their bloodlines, originally intending to change their bloodlines and improve their talents. Unfortunately, after adding all sorts of random things to their bloodlines, the bloodlines changed, but their talents didn't change much!"

At this point, Jerry thought of genes—altering genes to gain special abilities. These ancient people were something else.

"This bloodline can be passed down, but talent is difficult to change. Only the Dragon God can change talent, which is why those people study this."

"Jerry, at first I thought you were the reincarnation of the Dragon God, but it turns out you weren't. Your body used to only have fairy blood and human blood."

"Your soul has transformed into a divine soul; I don't know how you did it."

Hearing this, Jerry thought a lot. This Dragon God opening up the Douluo Continent and building the God Realm, how come it's a bit like opening up his own world?

The continent we live on now is the world of the Dragon God!

The Dragon God was also killed by creatures in his own world. Although he didn't die, he was split in two. It's a bit tragic to think about!

However, few who create new worlds have a good ending. Didn't the great god Pangu perish after creating the primordial world?

When I have the ability in the future, I will absolutely not open up a new world!

"This was an accident; the 100,000-year-old Sacred Soul Grass transformed my soul!"

"A 100,000-year-old Sacred Soul Grass! A divine medicine! But even that's not enough to transform you into a divine soul! Let me take a look at your divine soul space?"

The Divine Soul Space, I should probably refer to my Sea of ​​Consciousness!

"Okay, come and take a look!"

After speaking, the Fairy Queen directly entered Jerry's sea of ​​consciousness.

"Wow, this place is so big! I can see your spirit."

Then the Fairy Queen flew toward Jerry's soul. When she got close to the soul, she found that Jerry's soul was now very powerful and had solidified!

With a thought, Jerry arrived at his sea of ​​consciousness, and once there, his divine sense directly attached itself to his soul.

Jerry felt refreshed and relaxed, both physically and mentally.

"Jerry, your soul is different. It has a trace of dragon soul power, not the Dragon God's, but I feel it's even stronger than the Dragon God's."

At this moment, Jerry suddenly remembered that he was called the Descendant of the Dragon in his previous life. Could he really have the bloodline of the dragon? It's a pity that it was a soul transmigration and the body didn't come. Otherwise, he might have been able to awaken the Dragon Martial Soul when he awakened. Thinking about it, Jerry felt that he had lost out big time!

"I don't know!" Jerry said, feigning ignorance.

"No wonder you can cultivate. This wisp of dragon soul power is stronger than even the Dragon God. This world was created by the Dragon God, and the rules cannot suppress this wisp of dragon soul power. It's just that this wisp of dragon soul power is too weak; it has exhausted all its strength to resist the rules. It's already quite good that it can spare even a trace for you to have soul power!"

So that's how it is! No wonder there wasn't any soul power in the family for generations, only I had a trace of it!

"Wait a minute, my grandpa has soul power now too!" Jerry asked.

"He didn't have it in the first place!"

"Yes, that's right!"

"This is because of the power of devouring. Besides mastering the rules of wood, we also possess some devouring power. Even the gods in the divine realm fear this devouring power, so they added restrictions. This is why many plant martial souls are not complete; the carrot is an exception!"

The power of devouring? So the way plant roots absorb nutrients is a form of devouring? But thinking about it, it makes sense. As long as there are nutrients, or rather, soul power in this world, buried in the soil, they can all be slowly absorbed by plants. Calling it devouring isn't wrong!

It's another restriction from the God Realm. No wonder I saw so many plant spirits in the Spirit Hall, but I never saw a complete one. They were all flowers or leaves, and some even had branches, but I never saw one with roots!

If carrots weren't special, they probably would be lacking something.

"So now I'm a false god too, what rules do I govern?" Jerry asked.

"The reason I say you are a false god is because your bloodline has transformed. Now you have a divine body and your soul has also transformed into a divine soul. What you lack now is divine power. When you cultivate to the top of the continent, you will continue to compress your soul power until it transforms into divine power. Only then will you be a true god."

"Furthermore, our symbiotic relationship doesn't require you to master the rules; you can directly use the wood-based rules!"

"Others only begin to comprehend the rules after they've become gods; you have an advantage in this regard!"

"Based on the degree of comprehension of the rules, the divine realm is now divided into three levels of gods: level two gods, level one gods, and god-kings."

"There weren't so many divisions before. The Dragon God ruled the Divine Realm alone, while the other races managed their own affairs."

"And that soul tool, it's actually just a method for using some rules. Some people can't comprehend the rules, so they researched ways to use them by borrowing external objects!"

"Jerry, the realm of the gods will not tolerate you. Are you ready to fight against the gods?" The Fairy Queen paused here.

Jerry thought about it. He had inexplicably come to this world, without any special abilities, and had always been a nobody for so many years. He originally thought he couldn't go back, so he decided to change this world. But he didn't expect this world to have so many secrets. Things that didn't concern him before, he could have stayed out of the way.

That's no longer the case. After his bloodline awakened, Jerry can be said to be standing directly on the opposite side of God.

Jerry was a mortal in both his past and present lives. He hadn't become a true god yet, but he was already going to oppose the gods. This made it difficult for Jerry to change his mindset.

"Fairy Queen, the future is too far away for me. I think I need to live in the present first. As for the gods you mentioned, I don't know what to do! But if I had the power, I wouldn't let them be parasites anymore!" Jerry said.

"By the way, now that you've entered my soul space, do you know what that crystal ball is?"

"A crystal ball?" With Jerry's prompting, the Fairy Queen finally saw the crystal ball that Jerry was talking about. The crystal ball had concealed its aura before, so the Fairy Queen hadn't noticed it.

"W-w-how could this be here? This is impossible, this is impossible!" At this moment, the Fairy Queen finally showed signs of panic. She had always been indifferent to all things in the world, but now a trace of panic finally appeared.

"Jerry, you must protect this! I can't tell you what it is, but it's very important to the entire continent. I was too tense just now. This crystal ball must be newly created, so you must protect it!" the Fairy Queen said solemnly.

"Protect it? Does it need protection? It's fine when it doesn't move, but every time it moves, it's earth-shattering. I'm afraid it will drain me dry!" Jerry said. After all, an unknown and dangerous thing was always in his mind. Jerry felt like it was a time bomb, which might explode one day and make him disappear into nothingness!

"No, it has chosen you, so it won't hurt you! Don't tell anyone about this!" the Fairy Queen said.

"But all the spirit beasts in the forest know, only Xiao Wu knows that he ran into my soul space. Xiao Wu saw him when he was born!" Jerry said.

"Then I will erase her memories!" said the Fairy Queen.

"No, no! I'll tell Xiaowu it's a secret!" Jerry said.

"Suit yourself! Just remember, you absolutely mustn't let anyone else know about this!" the Fairy Queen said.

"By the way, you escaped. Do I still have my martial spirit?"

"madness!"

"I was just asking. After we go out, without a martial spirit in battle, we'll be easily discovered!"

"Only trash uses martial spirits. If you're afraid of being discovered, just simulate one using the power of the rules!"

"I……"
