Humans are devouring and selling off the heavens

Chapter 127 Shocking! Powerful figures in Doupo may suffer from infertility.

After his soul merged with his body, Yao Chen felt that the power of that soul was as strong as an abyss and as vast as the sea. The power of that soul alone was something that ordinary Dou Sheng could not deal with.

The physical strength is terrifyingly immense; every inch of its bones seems to contain the power to pluck stars from the sky and seize the moon, to hate that the heavens have no handle and the earth has no ring.

If this physical body were to absorb more battle qi, it would rise step by step—that kind of power would probably be able to pierce the sky of the Battle Qi Continent.

As soon as Yao Chen had this thought, a vortex spontaneously appeared around his body, like countless miniature black holes, frantically pulling at the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and in an instant, crystallized specks of solid battle qi.

But after only a short while, Yao Chen abruptly stopped, a self-deprecating bitter smile appearing on his lips.

His meridians were unimaginably wide and strong, and his dantian could hold boundless battle qi.

However, for Yao Lao, this was already the highest-level Earth-rank cultivation technique. When it was circulated in his body, let alone driving the meridians and dantian to their limits, it was probably less than one ten-thousandth of the limit.

It's only because Yao Lao isn't from Earth that he could have come up with something like "Lu Bu riding a dog."

Even so, the foundation of this physical body is terrifying enough.

Those elders and clansmen of the Medicine Clan who had previously looked down on him, even those who were Battle Saints, were now as fragile as paper in his eyes. Even if the Medicine Clan Chief himself were here, he probably wouldn't be able to withstand a single punch from him.

As for the Soul Palace...

A cold glint flashed in Yao Chen's eyes; now a young man, his eyes revealed a sharp edge.

The contract protects the Soul Clan; he cannot touch them.

But the Soul Palace must eventually pay back this debt with interest.

Seeing that Yao Lao had been resurrected, Xiao Yan rushed forward, his eyes slightly red: "Master!"

Yao Chen turned around, looking at his disciple with eyes full of satisfaction. He raised his hand and patted his shoulder: "Good, Xiao Yanzi, good indeed." Xu Qing withdrew his hand, the power dissipated, and he said calmly: "The fusion of body and soul still needs time to nurture, but with the power of this body alone, it is enough for you to roam freely in the Dou Qi Continent."

Yao Chen gazed at this unfathomable Pavilion Master, his heart surging with turmoil.

Only after possessing this body did he realize how terrifying it was. How could the other party have such power to revive him?

Above the Dou Di level?

What level of attainment is that?

Unable to imagine what could happen, Yao Lao could only bow deeply to Xu Qing solemnly: "I cannot express my gratitude enough. This favor, Pavilion Master, I, Yao Chen—"

You're welcome.

Xu Qing waved his hand, interrupting Yao Lao's words. Through the contract, his gaze seemed to pierce through space, reaching the distant Dou Qi Continent:

"Now that the contract is in effect, you no longer need to worry about the matters between the Soul Clan and the Ancient Emperor's Cave."

In fact, the Soul Clan is not really necessary. Xu Qing only wants the Soul Emperor, and the Void Devouring Flame is just a side effect.

Only these two Nine-Star Dou Sheng are somewhat valuable.

Xu Qing squinted.

The bloodline of a Dou Di—...what an interesting power.

The Dou Di bloodline of the Dou Qi Continent is incredibly powerful. While the Dou Di may not be considered strong among the many worlds, the innate talents it brings are truly terrifying.

As long as one person can knock on the door of the Dou Di realm, their direct blood relatives can enjoy the benefits without having to cultivate hard, and can directly reach the high-level Dou Sheng realm, truly demonstrating what it means for one person to attain enlightenment and for their entire family to benefit.

The closer the blood relation, the greater the divine benefit. Fathers and sons, brothers can even ascend to the heavens in one step. For example, in the original work, when Xiao Yan broke through to the Dou Di level, Xiao Xiao immediately became an eight-star Dou Sheng, saving thousands of years of hard work in cultivation. She was even stronger than some of the clan leaders of the eight major races who had lived for thousands of years.

Such an extraordinary bloodline advantage, if placed in other universes, would likely, with the proliferation of Dou Di level experts, quickly give rise to a colossal entity that spans the entire world.

Just imagine, if a strong individual is willing to act as a harem, producing a Dou Di in each generation, they can instantly raise a clan army composed of high-level Dou Sheng.

How terrifying!

These high-level Battle Saints have an easy time breaking through, and there is a high probability that they will receive further support.

It's not just the Dou Di bloodline; it's the same for all kinds of high-level bloodlines. Stepping into the Dou Sheng realm is as easy as drinking water.

However, it seems that the powerful figures of the Dou Qi Continent have collectively suffered from infertility, as if very few of them have ever considered having children.

Xu Qing's lips twitched as he thought of those powerful figures.

In other fantasy worlds, this behavior could be described as abstaining from women and having a firm Daoist heart.

However, on the Dou Qi Continent, where people possess the bloodline of Dou Di, such behavior can only be described as idiotic.

For example, Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun, these two nine-star Dou Sheng, have lived for thousands of years, nearly ten thousand years. If placed in a world without magic, that would mean they have lived from the human tribal era to the cosmic era.

However, in these thousands of years, the two powerful figures each only had one daughter, Zi Yan and Xiao Xun'er.

Not to mention figures like the Soul Emperor, who speak as if his ambition spans millennia, his methods are ruthless and decisive, and he has all sorts of grand plans spanning thousands of years.

But after a lifetime of scheming and plotting, he left behind not a single blood relative.

"Sigh, what a waste of talent."

Xu Qing couldn't help but want to laugh.

Despite possessing such extraordinary power to rapidly expand their race, they are remarkably inefficient when it comes to reproduction.

Those powerful figures from the eight ancient races claimed to value the bloodline of the Dou Di, but their actual behavior was truly laughable. Despite being races that have existed for at least tens of thousands of years and multiplied for so long, their population is only a few million.

Those old guys who have lived for thousands of years have forgotten the most fundamental, terrifying, and heaven-defying power.

If this were another world, someone with the overpowered bloodline of a Dou Di would probably have already multiplied and had relatives and descendants all over the continent.

The Soul Emperor spent his entire life plotting to seize the inheritance of the ancient emperor and attempt to become an emperor. But even if he succeeded, given that he didn't even have any children or brothers, who would benefit from the benefits of the Dou Di bloodline?

It will benefit those Soul Clan members who are not closely related to him by blood.

In his final battle with Xiao Yan, he killed so many members of the Soul Clan, but among them were his father, his brothers, and his children. An eight-star Dou Sheng couldn't even gather them all up with one hand.

What a waste of talent!

In Xu Qing's opinion, if the Soul Emperor had decided to become a Dou Di long ago, he should have been a stud day and night for the past few thousand years.

If he could father thousands or even tens of thousands of children, then when he advances to Dou Di, he would come with tens of thousands of eight-star Dou Sheng blood vials. Even if Xiao Yan advances to Dou Di, would he have any chance of defeating him? He would probably be cleaved in two by Hun Tiandi.

Even if he only fathered ten children to serve as blood vials, the balance of power in this battle would still tilt in his favor.

In Xu Qing's view, such a waste of talent was truly laughable.

It's like holding a golden bowl and begging for food, or holding a weapon that can sweep away thousands of troops but only using it to chop firewood.

However, since Soul Emperor doesn't cherish this talent, Xu Qing will make sure he makes good use of it after capturing him.
