Chapter 236: Tang San Stirs Up Trouble, Jerry Angrily Kills Forty Thousand

After Jerry finished observing the development of each world and bid farewell to the Silver Dragon King and the Fairy Queen, he left the Small World and returned to the Spirit Hall.

As soon as he returned to the Spirit Hall, Jerry heard some rather infuriating news.

Because Jerry had let his clones publish the Breathing Method, many people had developed soul power within themselves directly after practicing it.

This made the continent lively; originally, for ordinary people to develop soul power, they needed the assistance of Soul Power Pills, but now the Breathing Method alone was sufficient.

At the very beginning, everyone was very happy, thanking the Spirit Hall and Jerry one after another, and then they all began to practice the Breathing Method.

At this time, Tang San came out to stir up trouble.

He had his followers spread some news among the common people:

"The Breathing Method was released within the Spirit Hall long ago, and it had already been verified as successful."

"Just like the previous Visualization, Meditation Method, and various Self-created Soul Skills, the people of the Spirit Hall only let us practice them after they had practiced them themselves."

"Every time, the internal members of the Spirit Hall practice first; in this way, we will always be one step behind the Spirit Hall's personnel."

"The Spirit Hall is too selfish; we demand that new techniques be released directly in the future so that everyone can practice at the same time."

"The Spirit Hall secretly researches everything themselves; we demand that the Spirit Hall make their research data public so the entire continent can research together, as only then can more cultivation techniques be developed."

"Many important materials can only be viewed by Spirit Hall personnel; we demand that these materials be made public so that all the people of the continent can view them, and we demand equality."

"The Spirit Hall developed the Bloodline Pill, but the Bloodline Pill can only allow the martial souls of Spirit Masters with Beast Spirits to evolve, so the Spirit Hall must have also researched evolution methods for Plant Spirits and tool-type martial souls; we demand the public release of the evolution methods for Plant Spirits and tool-type martial souls."

A series of rumors began to spread across the entire continent. Many people did not believe them at first, but they could not withstand so many people saying the same thing, and gradually, many people came to believe them.

Upon hearing this news, Jerry was truly between laughter and tears.

He had researched various things for the development of the Douluo Continent.

In the end, he was still slandered by the Spirit Hall.

There was truly nowhere to reason with this.

Moreover, this matter of the Breathing Method was not verified by the internal personnel of the Spirit Hall, but was released directly after being verified in the Small World.

It was too unjust!

Now the entire continent was discussing these matters, demanding that the Spirit Hall provide an explanation.

Jerry wondered if he had been too good to them, making them forget what kind of society they used to live in.

Jerry directly recalled thirty clones and had them begin arresting the rumor-mongers.

The thirty clones acted separately, with ten each in the Two Great Empires and the Spirit Hall.

They arrested over sixty thousand people that very day.

He used his divine sense to examine their souls directly, and finally, Jerry discovered a secret.

The Light God Sect, the Five Great Envoys.

Well done, Tang San and his group had finally jumped out.

Among the more than sixty thousand people, over forty thousand had defected to the Light God Sect.

The others were just hearsay and random gossip; these people were sent off to labor reform, and they would only be released once they had been reformed.

The remaining forty-plus thousand people were all taken to the Spirit Hall's execution ground.

Jerry waved his hand, and a giant projection appeared above every city in the Two Great Empires and the Spirit Hall.

The image playing in the projection was the Spirit Hall's execution ground.

Jerry spoke to the projection: "I am Jerry of the Spirit Hall; many of you should have heard of me."

"Today, I want to clarify here that the Spirit Hall releasing these materials is all for the development of the entire continent."

"Many previous studies were not yet mature, so the personnel of the Spirit Hall were the first batch of experimental subjects; although they practiced first, they had to bear all the problems of the techniques."

"Cultivating techniques must be rigorous and cannot have any mistakes; minor ones lead to serious injury, while major ones lead to cultivation deviation and life-threatening danger."

"Only after it is determined to be completely mature and without danger will it be announced to the entire continent."

"Yet now, there are some people using this matter to slander the Spirit Hall."

"Upon verification, they come from an underground force called the Light God Sect."

"If my guess is correct, the people behind the Light God Sect should be the inheritors of that group of gods in the God Realm."

"Hearing the word 'god', some people might panic, but here I want to announce one thing."

"Everyone knows the realms of cultivation; you think the highest is Title Douluo, but actually, it is not. Above Title Douluo, there is another realm: Hundred Level becoming a god."

"And the gods in the God Realm were once humans themselves, people from the Douluo Continent, but after cultivating to become gods, they no longer looked down upon humans."

"In ancient times, both Soul Beasts and humans could become gods, and Soul Beasts did not need to undergo any Thunder Tribulation, nor did Spirit Masters need Spirit Rings. The gods of the God Realm feared that too many people would cultivate to become gods and shake their interests, so they added various Rules to the Douluo Continent."

"Everyone knows that cultivation is fast in places with high soul power concentration, right? The ancient gods opened up the God Realm and secretly extracted ninety percent of the Douluo Continent's soul power; therefore, the cultivation of Spirit Masters on the Douluo Continent is very slow."

"The gods of the God Realm are actually the parasites and vampires of the entire Douluo Continent."

"These gods, under the guise of finding inheritors, built Inheritance Sites on the Douluo Continent and opened God Trials. The God Trial rewards increase the age of Spirit Rings, reward God-Bestowed Soul Rings, and reward cultivation improvements."

"Many people treat these rewards as the grace of gods and crazily worship these gods."

"In fact, we can achieve these rewards ourselves; they are not the grace of gods at all."

"Now that the Spirit Hall has researched these methods and announced them directly to the entire continent, it has shaken the power of the gods. The gods are angry, so they let their inheritors start stirring up trouble on the continent, spreading rumors, and targeting the Spirit Hall."

"Everyone can think carefully about whether you have actually benefited from the methods the Spirit Hall has announced."

"If not for the Spirit Hall's announcements, how many people would still be living in mediocrity."

"And the God Trials: according to everyone's talent, the highest is the Nine Trials, but most people have ordinary talent and at most can reach the White Level Three Trials, which cannot improve much at all. Whereas the Spirit Hall does not look at talent and treats everyone equally."

"Now these inheritors of the gods have created a Light God Sect. They have infiltrated every part of the continent and have been waiting for an opportunity to overthrow the Spirit Hall, let the continent return to the rule of the gods, and let you return to your previous lives."

"I will just ask: are you not living well now? Do you want to return to your previous lives?"

When Jerry asked this question, everyone began to shout: "We are living very well now, we do not want to return to our previous lives!"

Hearing the response of the common people, Jerry was very gratified; it seemed these common people were not muddled.

"It has now been verified that these 43,715 people are all believers of the Light God Sect, and it was they who started spreading this rumor."

"Tell me, what should we do with a force that wants to stir up trouble on the continent, wants to destroy the peace of the continent, and wants everyone to return to their former lives?"

After Jerry finished speaking, someone among the commoners spoke up first, saying, "Kill them without mercy!" Then, this slogan began to ring out one after another.

"Good, I already know everyone's opinion. Kill them without mercy. Carry out the execution now."

Jerry waved his hand after speaking, and the forty-thousand-plus people floated directly into the air; an ice spike condensed instantly in front of each of them, piercing through their heads in a split second.

Not beheading them directly and leaving them with an intact corpse was already Jerry's mercy toward them.

Killing so many people at once was something Jerry could not help; he had checked these people, and they had participated in the God Trial. The gods had implanted something into their souls to make them incomparably loyal. Jerry had tried, but these implanted things had completely merged into their souls and could not be removed at all.

Killing over forty thousand people in an instant, among whom there were no lack of high-level Spirit Masters, not one could withstand the ice spike.

This scene also deeply shocked the commoners of the entire continent; it is estimated that they will never dare to slander the Spirit Hall again.

However, there must still be believers of the Light God Sect among the commoners. Jerry could not check their souls one by one and could only wait for them to expose themselves.

Because of Jerry's iron-fisted methods this time, many people were shocked, and therefore no one dared to discuss this matter in private.

However, a few days later, many people ran to the official website of the Spirit Hall to exchange for soul skills like Soul Power Spike, Soul Power Arrow, and Soul Power Blade.

Because of this move by Jerry, many people felt it was too cool and flocked to the Spirit Hall to exchange for and learn them.

For a time, soul skills that were originally unpopular became a huge hit.

Many Spirit Masters like the feeling of fists hitting flesh, so there are many people practicing Fist Technique, palm techniques, and leg techniques.

Some people really did not have this talent, so they practiced some soul skills that use weapons.

As for soul power shaping, many people felt that besides being cool, it was not very practical.

Because the quality of their soul power at that time was not good, the power of soul power shaping was average.

Now, everyone who practices goes to the Gravity Field to practice, so unknowingly, their soul power has long been compressed, the quality of their soul power has improved, and the power of the corresponding soul skills has also increased a lot.

It is just that no one reminded them, and they did not realize it themselves for a time.

Jerry's execution of over forty thousand people this time not only deterred all lawless elements, but even the people of the Spirit Hall were shocked.

After executing these people, Qian Daoliu, Poseidon, Chrysanthemum Douluo, and Jerry's senior and junior sisters all sought out Jerry.

The feeling Jerry gave them had changed; he had become very strange.

Although they were in frequent contact with Jerry in Wuhun City, Jerry's change this time was too great, to the point where they did not quite recognize him.

The one left in the Spirit Hall before was a clone; the clone was left behind before Jerry opened up the Small World, and at that time, Jerry's personality had not yet changed.

After Jerry's true body returned to Wuhun City, he retracted the clone and synchronized the clone's memories.

Jerry himself had not noticed that he had changed; it was only after everyone reminded him this time that Jerry began to think about why he had changed.

Soon, Jerry understood that this was the aftereffect of replicating the Small World.

Although not much time had passed in the Main World, in the Small World, it added up to millions of years.

During these millions of years, as the Small World developed, Jerry had seen too much life and death.

Adhering to the principle of not interfering with the development of the Small World, Jerry only observed.

At first, when humanity in the Small World went extinct, Jerry would still feel a pang of pain, but later on, he gradually lost the feeling, as if he had already looked past life and death.

Jerry hurriedly asked the World Consciousness how to solve his situation.

The World Consciousness told Jerry that looking past life and death is something every god must adapt to; because Jerry had the replicated Small World, he looked past life and death faster than other gods.

After becoming a god, it means having a long lifespan. In this long period of time, the people around one will slowly grow old and die.

As long as the people around one do not become gods, they will die. As the people around one die, some new people will also be born. With batch after batch of people dying, even the strongest humanity will be lost.

After shedding humanity, the personality at this time is called divinity.

The World Consciousness could not solve this problem either, because this is something every god must experience.

Hearing the answer from the World Consciousness, Jerry was very disappointed; he wanted to cultivate, to cultivate to the highest place, and then come back to change the world.

But now he had lost his humanity and was full of indifference toward life.

This time, he killed over forty thousand people; although they were traitors and believers of other forces, according to Jerry's previous personality, even in such a case, he would not have killed them directly.

Although he wouldn't treat prisoners well, he would have let them go to labor reform and would absolutely not have killed them directly.

The current Jerry is a bit like the former Fairy Queen, with everything being calm and unruffled.

Previously, Jerry did not understand and thought that the Fairy Queen's nature was like this, but now it seems that is not the case.

The Fairy Queen's personality had also transformed into divinity!

Wrong, Jerry felt it was wrong.

Cultivating to a higher level leads to forgetting emotions; this had appeared in the immortal cultivation world, but Jerry's personal view had always been the opposite.

Jerry felt that one should not abandon the seven emotions and six desires for the sake of cultivation, but unknowingly, Jerry's own seven emotions and six desires had disappeared.

After a person loses the seven emotions and six desires, they look past everything, even life and death; it is simply more monk-like than a monk.

Jerry recalled why his seven emotions and six desires had disappeared; it was because he had stayed in the Small World for millions of years.

Most of the time, he, the Silver Dragon King, and the Fairy Queen were all cold observers of the events in the Small World.

And because the three of them were all observing the Small World, there was very little communication; they would only exchange a word every tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or millions of years.

With fewer people to contact and less speaking, once he got used to it, he did not like to communicate.

Plus, in the Small World, many people died every day, and various things happened every day; what should have been looked past had long been looked past.

As time went on, Jerry's humanity was lost.

Suddenly, Jerry thought of mortal world tempering, experiencing life as a mortal, and the like.

He did not know if it would work, but he could try mortal world tempering.

It certainly wouldn't work in the Main World; he could only go into the Small World.

Returning to the Small World, Jerry told the Silver Dragon King and the Fairy Queen about the matter of divinity. The Fairy Queen had known about it for a long time and her mood did not change, but the Silver Dragon King learned of it for the first time; after all, she did not have many memories of the Dragon God.

Subsequently, Jerry stated his idea, preparing to go live in a Small World, have more contact with humans, and try to slowly find his humanity back.

The Fairy Queen spoke up at this moment: "It is useless. Even if you enter a Small World and have more contact with humans, you must remember that your lifespan is long; the people around you will still die one after another, and then, living alone, you will still grow indifferent to life and death."

"I know the situation you speak of, but I have already thought of a plan. I will seal my memories and set my own lifespan. Only after I die will my memories be restored, and then I will be resurrected in another body. If one mortal experience is not enough, then I will experience it ten times, a hundred times. Whether it is a hundred cycles of reincarnation or a thousand, I must find my humanity again."

In truth, Jerry was gambling; he was gambling that the memories of multiple mortal lives could allow his humanity to suppress his divinity.

Born as a human, Jerry did not believe that all of his humanity had disappeared; it should only have been suppressed by his divinity.

But Jerry felt that after possessing enough mortal experiences, his humanity would suppress his divinity, thereby allowing him to find his humanity again.
