If he could, Xu Xin wouldn't want Tara to disappear.
Tara is a very good teacher here.
Even in Jackie Chan Adventures, he was excellent and never criticized his subordinates. Even when Ah Fen, Zhou, and Ah Fu failed repeatedly, he did not show any disdain.
On the contrary, they would comfort them, which is much better than the Holy Lord, isn't it?
Saint God, a man full of lies, and Tara, a sincere master—the difference in their virtues is obvious. Valon is far better than Saint God.
After all, it's common knowledge that Shendu is the most untrustworthy, and Valon is only interested in making money.
Xu Xin didn't want Tara to disappear; he hoped there would be another way.
"Hehe, little guy, I know what you're thinking."
"You don't need to be too sad. I am just an energy body that will dissipate sooner or later. The purpose of my existence is only to guide you."
"I am already very satisfied to see a junior like you appear in the Ghost Kingdom."
"Parting is for a better reunion; perhaps we'll meet again somewhere else?"
Tara was quite calm, taking life and death lightly. He believed in fighting back if someone disagreed. He wasn't dead; he existed wherever there was darkness, just in a different way.
Xu Xin smiled and nodded. Yes, does death truly mean death? If I really die, then what is this life?
Perhaps they really will meet somewhere else?
Having figured all this out, Xu Xin felt relieved and bowed to Tara.
"Senior, what is the content of this fourth level?" Xu Xin asked.
"The fourth challenge, to put it simply, requires nine gods to emerge from the Ghost Kingdom. In your world's terms, their strength should be considered that of God-Kings."
Xu Xin's eyes lit up. Nine God Kings!
Although they are Douluo, they are also God Kings, which is considered top-tier in this world. If they are all God Kings, then what about me? Wouldn't I be even stronger?
"Senior, are those nine God-Kings related to the nine thrones outside?"
Xu Xin thought of the nine thrones outside, and then he remembered Gu Yuena asking him why those thrones were glowing.
Xu Xin easily connected these people.
Tara nodded: "Nine masks, nine thrones, nine god-kings."
Xu Xin understood what Tara meant. The rest was no longer his concern. As long as the nine god-kings returned to their positions, he could become a god in one fell swoop.
That's good, it gives me more time to torture myself. That's great.
Xu Xin said, "Senior, this God King's test must be quite difficult, right?"
"It depends on the individual circumstances. Only they know the specifics. You've completed three rounds, so the fourth round depends on the person you choose."
"Moreover, you can't stand alone; some trials require you to work together."
Tara spoke slowly, and her two sentences left Xu Xin somewhat bewildered. It turned out that he still needed to take action.
On second thought, it seems that's true; it couldn't be that easy.
"Alright, little guy, it's up to you to work hard from now on. The future of the Ghost Shadow Kingdom depends on you."
"I believe you won't let me down."
Goodbye, little one.
After Tara finished speaking, her body transformed into a crimson energy that surged into Xu Xin's body.
Xu Xin bowed respectfully to him: "Goodbye, senior!"
The crimson energy surged into Xu Xin's limbs and bones, and Xu Xin clearly felt that his connection with the Ghost Shadow Kingdom had become stronger, and black energy began to emanate from his body.
The place quickly disappeared, and Xu Xin returned to the Ghost Shadow Kingdom.
As soon as he came out, he saw Gu Yuena sitting in the lower seat. Seeing Xu Xin, Gu Yuena knew that he had succeeded.
"You succeeded, didn't you?" Gu Yuena slowly got up and walked to Xu Xin's side.
"You've succeeded, but you haven't become a god yet; there's still one last hurdle to overcome."
Xu Xin spoke calmly, saying that he would be able to relax for a long time from now on. Although he didn't know how much time Tara's energy had shortened for him, with nine God-Kings around, he was no longer worried about troubles in the God Realm.
"What is this final challenge?" Gu Yuena was quite curious, unable to figure out exactly what this final challenge was, even though she was a god.
"Guess!"
Xu Xin grinned and moved a few steps closer to Gu Yuena. The next second, a blush appeared on Gu Yuena's delicate face.
"Are you...shy?"
The pleasant atmosphere was disrupted by Xu Xin's words, and Gu Yuena's expression immediately changed, becoming cold and indifferent.
What is shyness?
Gu Yuena stared coldly at Xu Xin.
Xu Xin shuddered slightly. Well, this woman is not someone you can joke around with.
"Well..."
Where were we?
"The final hurdle, is it? The day the nine God-Kings return to their positions will be the day I become a god."
Xu Xin looked at Gu Yuena in front of him, and the moment he finished speaking, her expression changed. Nine God Kings?
How is that possible? It would take nine God-Kings to make him a god? If Xu Xin becomes a god, wouldn't he be the creator god?
This... it must be the Dragon God, it can't be anyone else!
Gu Yuena was increasingly grateful for her choice; the moment when the soul beasts would revive was fast approaching.
"What do you plan to do with these nine gods?"
Gu Yuena looked at Xu Xin. There were nine spots, and if nothing unexpected happened, one of them would be occupied by a mythical beast. Given the relationship between the mythical beast and Xu Xin, Gu Yuena didn't think the mythical beast would be absent.
"Nine masks, nine god-kings. I still have three masks in my possession, and I've already decided who to give one of them to."
"If there are only two left, don't rush, take your time, you'll find the right one eventually."
Xu Xin said calmly, "Now that we know how to become a god, there's nothing to worry about."
"Oh? I know the first six, and now another one has appeared? What, you've found another woman outside?"
Gu Yuena's voice unconsciously turned cold, and a hint of jealousy appeared on her face that she herself didn't realize...
Xu Xin raised an eyebrow and unconsciously placed his hand on Gu Yuena's forehead: "Hmm...nothing's wrong, but why does your tone sound so jealous?"
Gu Yuena bit her red lips lightly. This damned guy, she slapped Xu Xin's hand away and snorted coldly, "Take your paws off me."
"snort!"
After saying that, Gu Yuena disappeared and went to the riverbank alone, her face flushed.
Looking in the direction Gu Yuena left, Xu Xin smiled faintly. What a little tsundere she is!
A proud and arrogant dragon!
With a light laugh, Xu Xin reached out and gathered all the dark energy in the Ghost Shadow Kingdom into one place, leaving the rest of the space empty.
In this way, the entire kingdom of Ghost Shadows will no longer be shrouded in darkness.
And that dark, shadowy place will be Xu Xin's base camp in this ghostly kingdom.
