Chapter 21 Gu Tiandi Appears! Ning Rongrong is Shocked!
Ning Rongrong initially resisted being assigned to feed the dogs.
She was the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. She had never lifted a finger since childhood. When had she ever done such work of serving animals?
But later...
She found it really delicious.
Because the concentration of spiritual energy in the Vermilion Fruit used to feed dogs is frighteningly high!
Just one sniff of it, and the soul power within the body... no, it should be called spiritual power now, begins to surge wildly.
Each time she fed, the medicinal power emanating from the Vermilion Fruit, once inhaled, was equivalent to a year of arduous cultivation in Douluo Continent!
In just a few days, her cultivation level skyrocketed.
This isn't feeding dogs, this is clearly trying to get a chance!
Just then, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.
Ning Rongrong sensed that something was wrong and subconsciously looked up.
All those high and mighty heavenly soldiers around her were now kneeling on the ground, trembling with fear.
Following the direction of the crowd, she saw a figure.
Dressed in white, his hair as black as a waterfall.
The person stood there quietly, without a trace of soul power emanating from him, yet he caused all things in the world to lose their color.
A sense of oppression emanating from the depths of her soul caused Ning Rongrong's legs to buckle, and she knelt down with a thud.
"The...Heavenly Emperor?"
Ning Rongrong's mouth was slightly open, her beautiful eyes filled with shock.
Is this the Heavenly Emperor Gu?
This is the master who established this supreme Heavenly Court and crushed the Stone Emperor with a single finger.
In other words... invincible in this world!
Too young.
It's so... beautiful.
Even in Douluo Continent, where handsome men abound, she had never seen a man with such an ethereal and otherworldly air.
Nearby, an elderly man kneeling on the ground seemed to notice Ning Rongrong's dazed expression. He lowered his voice, his tone filled with barely suppressed excitement:
"Little girl, don't just stand there like an idiot!"
"This is none other than Emperor Gu, who protects all of humanity!"
"The Lord of Heaven!"
"In this era where no great emperor appears, it was he who, alone with his sword, swept across the alien races, destroyed forbidden zones, and killed those ancient royal families so that they dared not raise their heads!"
Throughout history, how many people have been able to achieve this?
Although the old man's voice was low, it could be clearly heard in the quiet beast garden.
At this time.
Douluo Continent, beneath the sky.
Hundreds of millions of living beings also witnessed this scene.
In the video, the white-clad man standing with his hands behind his back, even just a side profile, is enough to take the breath away of countless viewers.
"Is this the ruler of Heaven?"
"What a terrifying aura... Even through the sky, my martial soul is trembling."
"Did you hear that? That old man said he swept away alien races and destroyed forbidden zones!"
Inside the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, Emperor Xue Ye sat slumped on the dragon throne, his eyes filled with awe.
"Protect humanity..."
"Such achievements and such power are beyond the reach of even legendary sea gods and angels, who wouldn't even be worthy of carrying his shoes."
In the scene, the servants of the Beast Garden seemed to be trying to impress the Heavenly Emperor, and they began to whisper praises of Gu Changsheng's great achievements.
"Back then, in the Big Dipper Starfield, alien races ravaged the land, treating humans as prey."
"It was the Heavenly Emperor, with the power of his fully realized Holy Body, who fought a bloody battle in the starry sky and slew three resurrected Primordial Holy Emperors!"
"That battle was so fierce that the stars seemed to turn back and the sun and moon lost their light!"
"Even several planets occupied by alien races were shattered by the Heavenly Emperor with a single palm strike!"
Ning Rongrong was completely mesmerized by these mythical tales.
As she looked at that young figure, a storm raged within her.
Slaying stars? Destroying holy emperors?
Is this even human?
No wonder the female swordswoman who saved her looked down on everything in this world.
Having witnessed a true dragon soaring in the sky, who would care about a mudfish rolling around?
The Spirit Hall, the Papal Palace.
Bibi Dong stared intently at the screen, her fingernails digging into her palms.
"The Heavenly Court..."
"This is the true supreme power."
"If I could join the Heavenly Court, even just as an outer disciple, it would be a million times better than being some pope trapped in this cage!"
She thought of Qian Renxue.
That girl is right next to the Heavenly Emperor.
What an incredible opportunity!
Meanwhile, Shrek Academy...
Everyone's eyes turned red as they watched Ning Rongrong's cultivation level rise rapidly.
"Feeding dogs can make you stronger?"
Ma Hongjun swallowed hard, drool dripping onto the floor.
"I want to feed the dogs too!"
"If Rongrong can get in, then our Shrek Seven Devils are just as talented, so why can't we?"
Dai Mubai clenched his fists, his eyes blazing with unprecedented ambition.
"As long as I can get to that world, I don't care about dignity or my status as a prince!"
"I'd even shovel manure in that animal park if it meant becoming stronger!"
They were tortured terribly by Shui Bing'er.
That sense of powerlessness made them realize that the only way out was to go through the past.
On the live stream, people all over Douluo Continent were discussing it wildly.
"The entire world of 'Shrouding the Heavens' is overflowing with treasures!"
"That fruit that dogs eat could probably break the heads of even a Title Douluo."
Just as everyone was in a frenzy.
The imagery on the sky suddenly changed.
The perspective shifts to another time traveler.
Han Yu.
The once arrogant Soul Saint was teleported to the Crimson Mine.
In the picture.
On the crimson mine, heat waves rolled in, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of sulfur.
A ragged, emaciated figure was carrying a huge mining basket on his back, moving with difficulty.
It was Han Yu.
Where was the slightest trace of the prestige of a Soul Saint at this moment?
His hair was disheveled like weeds, his face was covered in black ash, and his body was covered with bloody welts from being whipped.
"Hurry up! Are you dawdling and asking for trouble?"
A cultivator who appeared to be a foreman brandished a long whip crackling with lightning and lashed it hard across Han Yu's back.
Snap!
The skin was torn open and the flesh was ripped open.
Han Yu screamed and staggered to the ground.
On the Douluo Continent side, everyone was dumbfounded.
"This...this is the Soul Saint Han Yu?"
"A Soul Saint, how did he end up in such a miserable state in that world?"
"They're not even as good as beggars!"
Miserable.
That's terrible.
In the scene, Han Yu struggles to get up, but he is too tired.
Mining day and night, the heavy red magic stone not only drained his physical strength but also devoured his life force.
"I'm not reconciled..."
"I am the Soul Saint... I am a superior being..."
Han Yu lay prone on the scorching hot ore, his fingers digging into the ground, tears of blood streaming from his eyes.
"I want to go home..."
The sound grew fainter and fainter.
Finally.
His head lolled to the side, and he was completely lifeless.
He died.
A Soul Saint of level 70 or higher was worked to death in a mine in another world.
The foreman came over and kicked him, only to find he was dead. He spat in disgust.
"Waste."
"Drag him out."
The image freezes on Han Yu's unseeing face.
The entire continent was deathly silent.
The comments section completely disappeared.
The frenzied atmosphere from just now was instantly doused with cold water.
That world, though full of opportunities, was also incredibly cruel.
The weak don't even deserve to be called human beings.
