The only deity that might be related to him was the God Of Evil. Other than him, Gu Yi couldn't think of any god that could be associated with him. Could it be that Bibi Dong had mistook the aura of the Evil God Bead for a divine position inheritance?
However, he knew that he had definitely not obtained any divine position inheritance. Still, if he really had the opportunity to gain one, it would be the best outcome. After all, having a divine position inheritance would be equivalent to having a safeguard, ensuring his life was not constantly at risk. Unfortunately, no god had approached him.
"Your Holiness, just look at all the evil aura all over me. Isn't it clear enough?" Gu Yi wasn't foolish. Since Bibi Dong had misunderstood, he might as well go along with it. The brief confrontation earlier made Gu Yi realize that he was still no match for Bibi Dong, especially when she used her divine power. Pulling the tiger's skin to stretch the banner was only a temporary measure.
However, he didn't say too much, just in case gods in this world had the ability to eavesdrop when their names were called. If he really managed to provoke the God Of Evil, then it would be all over for him.
Now he needed Bibi Dong to think for herself. Gu Yi also believed that there was another being, not a person, but a god, who also heard his words.
Gu Yi was indeed not mistaken. Far away in the Divine Realm, the Rakshasa God had started paying attention the moment Bibi Dong lost control.
Although gods were restricted and couldn't interfere with the mortal realm, they could do some things beyond their permissions through their inheritors. This was an unspoken rule among gods. As long as it wasn't overdone, they generally wouldn't expose each other.
The Rakshasa God had indeed heard Gu Yi's words. The evil aura on Gu Yi was excessively thick, faintly exuding the aura of the God Of Evil, and even containing a trace of divine power. But he was not the God Of Evil's successor. This, she could see clearly and understand well.
He was merely a lucky person who had somehow managed to acquire a trace of divine power. No, he couldn't even be considered lucky. Divine power was not something just anyone could bear, especially the divine power of a God-King. It was even more challenging.
This kid would sooner or later be corrupted by this trace of divine power, turning into a mindless killing machine. Rather than waiting for him to be corrupted and die, it would be better to deal with him now, sparing him the pain and allowing her to collect this trace of evil divine power for research, especially that peculiar pearl in his mental sea.
But she couldn't personally intervene. Just as she was about to send a message to Bibi Dong, the Rakshasa God was stunned.
"What the hell, what's going on!"
The Rakshasa God stared at the mark that had suddenly appeared on Gu Yi's forehead and he started to emit a divine aura, unmistakably proving that...
Gu Yi had been chosen by a god.
The Rakshasa God was bewildered by the drastic change, starting to doubt whether she had misjudged earlier.
Gu Yi himself was also in a bewildered state. Initially, he was just bluffing, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be a prophecy, which was simply absurd.
As he was lost in his thoughts, a majestic voice suddenly emerged in his mental sea.
"Gu Yi, I am the Supreme God King of the Divine Realm, the God Of Evil. Today, I choose you as my successor. Do you accept?"
In the Divine Realm, the God Of Kindness watched the imposing God Of Evil with a teasing smile, "It's rare to hear such a dignified tone from you."
"Selecting a successor naturally requires the dignity of a god."
Gu Yi was stunned for a few seconds before replying, "I accept." This was a great opportunity, to be able to latch onto the thigh of the God Of Evil, which was arguably the strongest in the Douluo World.
"You have great potential!" Gu Yi could even hear a sense of relief in those four words.
After so many years, he could finally escape the tedious Divine Realm. The God Of Evil even felt the surrounding air become fragrant.
Beside him, the God Of Kindness left in a hurry, eager to follow the God Of Evil out as well, but had been unable to find a suitable successor yet.
"Evil God's Nine Trials, The first trial: develop the Evil Domain to its perfect state, within one year."
Gu Yi listened to the information transmitted from his mind, not expecting the trial to start so quickly and to be such a trial. His martial spirit's sixth spirit ring wasn't just an ordinary spirit ring; it could grow stronger by absorbing evil power. Even so, he was still quite far from perfecting the Evil Domain.
"What do you think of the Spirit Hall?" Bibi Dong, having received a message from the Rakshasa God, was also shocked.
She couldn't believe that Gu Yi's luck was so extraordinary that the Supreme God King of the Divine Realm had chosen him. This person must be under her command.
Bibi Dong made up her mind. If Gu Yi became an enemy, he would definitely be her greatest foe in the future. She had to take control while her strength still surpassed his.
Gu Yi understood what Bibi Dong was thinking now. But he had a good impression of the Spirit Hall. It was arguably the most conscientious force on the Douluo Continent and the most likely to realize his aspirations. Though it would be better without this crazy woman.
"Very good."
Bibi Dong then asked, "What do you think of the Spirit Hall under my leadership?" Her tone became more authoritative, yet nobler, giving a sense of conquest, especially to Gu Yi, who had recently been bombarded with lascivious images, making his mind unstable. Bibi Dong was indeed a perfect woman.
"Naturally, it's excellent." Gu Yi wasn't lying. So far, everything she had done was good and beneficial to the world. Perhaps to a certain rabbit, she was a sworn enemy, but in the grand scheme of things, she was a great benefactor to the world.
"Then why not join the Spirit Hall?" Bibi Dong posed a deadly question. If you think the Spirit Hall is so great, why not join?
Actions speak louder than words, and clearly, what Gu Yi did contradicted what he said. He even colluded with that woman.
Gu Yi didn't know how to respond. Any answer he gives would be wrong.
"You may leave. In the coming days, I will stay in Heaven Dou. Come here every night at this time to help me absorb the evil power."
Bibi Dong, feeling much lighter after Gu Yi absorbed the evil power, found it much easier to suppress the Rakshasa divine power, even unlocking more of her strength. She didn't want to let go of such a useful tool.
Gu Yi could only agree. After all, what else could he do? Fight Bibi Dong?
