Chapter 890: Difficult path ahead

Time passed slowly, but the lightning that surrounded them did not weaken at all. On the contrary, it grew more and more intense. By the time she had officially completed the inheritance from Xiaya, seven hours had already passed.

“Alright, Meifei, get familiar with your current power,” Xiaya opened his eyes and calmly said to his daughter.

Upon hearing this, Meifei stood up from the altar. Her green hair shimmered with a subtle purple light, indicating that her power had increased significantly since before. Having absorbed two portions of Energy of Destruction and undergone a complete upgrade of the Super Saiyan realm under the Multiverse’s laws, Meifei’s current strength was probably only slightly inferior to Jiren’s.

“Wow, so impressive. I had no idea that a God of Destruction was this powerful. Now, no one can defeat me,” Feeling the surging life energy within her, Meifei grinned from ear to ear, displaying the same brainless and arrogant personality as Myers. She had a feeling that now, with just a few flicks of her fingers, she could easily defeat her past self.

Xiaya chuckled and tousled Meifei’s hair. “Don’t get too cocky. You’re still far from invincible. You can only say that it’s difficult for you to find yourself a rival in the third level of the Divine Realm.”

“Hehe!” Meifei giggled in embarrassment, feeling like a young swallow returning home as she dove into Xiaya’s embrace.

“Dad, you’re too good to me.”

“Silly daughter!” Xiaya gently hugged her and patted her back, then he turned to Kusu and said, “Kusu, please take care of Meifei from now on. I hope you two can get along well.”

“I understand, Xiaya-sama,” Kusu nodded seriously.

Kusu had known Meifei since she was a child, and therefore understood her very well. They had worked together to maintain the stability of Universe 1, so they were sure to get along very well.

With that settled, Xiaya and Meifei stepped down from the platform. Whis looked at him with his eyes shining slightly and said: “Xiaya, now that you have resigned as God of Destruction, when do you plan to break through to the fifth level of Divine Realm?”

“What?! Break through to the fifth level of Divine Realm?!” Everyone present was surprised.

Beerus was still fine since he had a clear understanding of Xiaya’s current level, thanks to Whis and Vados. So, although he grinned, he remained composed. However, Champa and the other Supreme Kais were different. They all looked at Xiaya incredulously, wondering if their ears were deceiving them.

Especially Supreme Kai Eyre and Robot Mosco, their hearts were filled with turbulent waves.

“Xiaya-sama is going to break through to the fifth level of Divine Realm?” Whis asked when Xiaya planned to break through, implying that Xiaya’s strength had already reached the peak of the fourth level of Divine Realm?

Is he going to break through to the fifth level of the Divine Realm soon?

But is this even possible?

Above the fourth level of the Divine Realm is Great Priest’s realm. Has Xiaya-sama already reached that level? Thinking about how Xiaya passed down his God of Destruction’s position to his daughter, the former Universe 3’s Supreme Kai Eyre couldn’t help but gulp and wear an incredulous expression.

Xiaya smiled and let go of Meifei’s hand, allowing her to stand next to him. He shook his head and said, “How can it be so fast! I’m currently just a simple God of Time and haven’t found a way to break through to the fifth level of the Divine Realm yet.”

After relinquishing his God of Destruction’s position, Xiaya has separated himself from the laws of the Multiverse to a certain extent and was no longer bound by these laws. Although he has become more perceptive and gained a new level of understanding, and the veil that had obscured his vision was slowly lifting, breaking through to the fifth level of the Divine Realm would still take a considerable amount of time.

“Well, that’s still impressive. Xiaya-sama might break through someday,” Eyre exclaimed excitedly. If Universe 1 produced an expert at the fifth level of the Divine Realm, they would be able to rest easy in the future.

“Xiaya-sama is truly extraordinary!” spoke Supreme Kai Tapion, who had witnessed Xiaya’s journey from an ordinary Divine Realm to where he was today, and was therefore full of confidence in him.

“Dad, I believe you can do it,” Meifei said, looking up at Xiaya with a determined expression. Of all the people she had seen since she could remember, there was no one who has been more outstanding than her father, so Meifei has always had a rather blind admiration for Xiaya.

Xiaya felt great on being admired by his daughter and burst into laughter.

Later on, as the God of Destruction’s inheritance ceremony came to an end, Whis, Vados, Beerus and Champa all went back to Universe 5.

However, Champa managed to persuade Vados to take him on a trip to Planet Hongshan, and it just happened that Vados was also planning to visit Planet Hongshan to take a look at the other Legendary Super Saiyan, “Angeline”. So after returning to Universe 5, they went straight to Planet Hongshan.

After sending Beerus back to the God of Destruction’s Planet, Whis also made a detour to Earth to visit Goku’s young daughter, Bulla.

Among Goku’s children, Whis believed that Bulla has the most potential for growth. Gohan and Goten were already set in their ways, and it would not be easy to retrain them.

As for Goten, his talent was undeniable, but his resilience in martial arts was not impressive. Although this world’s Goten was better than Goten from original work, he still did not meet Whis’ standards.

Although Gohan has decent strength and has grown up training in a harsh martial arts environment from a young age alongside Piccolo, with a fierce and ruthless fighting style that goes without saying, and compared to Goku’s simplicity and Vegeta’s arrogance, he was originally a perfect candidate for the God of Destruction. However, the problem is that when compared to the veteran Gods of Destruction from other universes, Gohan’s character seems to fall a bit short.

If Gohan were to become a God of Destruction, there is no doubt that he could reach and even surpass Beerus in the future, but competing against Meifei, Klein, Bomen and Jiren would put a lot of pressure on him.

Although it is possible for Gohan to surpass Klein, Bomen, and Jiren in the distant future, it is definitely something that won’t happen for a long, long time. There is no hope of seeing it in the short term.

Therefore, Whis has a higher expectation for Bulla and the other Legendary Super Saiyan named “Angeline”.

Bulla has a carefree and unrestrained personality, with a hint of “fearlessness” like Meifei. In terms of talent, she is not worse than Gohan and Goten, and she also has some traits similar to Legendary Super Saiyan. She is also passionate about martial arts, with the same sincerity as Goku, and her future achievements are limitless.

When it comes to dedication to martial arts, Bulla is most like Goku.

As for Angeline, Whis mainly values her Legendary Super Saiyan identity. Although she has not yet grown up, she has great potential and can be molded with a little training. Even if she cannot become a God of Destruction, she is more than capable of becoming a reserve God of Destruction.

Finally, Whis came to Earth and took Bulla to God of Destruction’s Planet.

…….

Universe 1

God of Destruction’s Planet.

Since Meifei has just assumed the position of God of Destruction, she has to follow Kusu to practice using God of Destruction’s power, so she cannot leave here for the time being.

On the other hand, after stepping down from his position, Xiaya started studying the path of fifth level of Divine Realm and has decided to stay here as well.

To enter the fifth level of the Divine Realm, a God of Time needs to find his past, present and future, and merge them together to break free from the constraints of time. However, he faced many challenges during this process such as how to find his own past, how to sense his own future, and how to merge his other selves existing at different points in the timeline. Xiaya was currently at a loss and has no idea how to proceed.

However, compared to before, after relinquishing his position as God of Destruction and becoming a pure God of Time, Xiaya’s perspective on the world has changed somewhat.

Previously, he was always in the universe, and his vision was obscured by the laws of the Multiverse.

This is a perspective issue. The laws of the Multiverse are complex and strict, and no one is allowed to peep into the deepest secrets. Therefore, as long as one is within the Multiverse, it’s as if there is a “natural law” in the shadows. If one does not “break through it with force” and cut through the “natural law”, reaching the fifth level of the Divine Realm would almost be a dream.

Fortunately, as the God of Time, Xiaya has now jumped out of the Multiverse using the external power of the Time Realm. It’s just like the saying “jumping out of the three realms and not belonging to the five elements*.” He no longer needs to care about the laws of the Multiverse.

[TN: *This phrase is a concept from Buddhism that refers to transcending the cycle of birth and death and becoming free from the three realms of existence: desire realm, form realm, and formless realm. The “five elements” in Chinese philosophy (metal, wood, water, fire, and earth) are associated with the material world and the cycle of birth and death.]

However, at the same time, it brings even deeper questions. The advancement process of God of Time is more profound than that of God of Destruction.

So, Xiaya sat cross-legged on the grassy plains of God of Destruction’s Planet in Universe 1, facing the emerald-green lake. From time to time, he would use “Extinction” with one hand and “Annihilation” with the other, trying to find a hint by corroborating them with each other.

Days went by, and Xiaya kept experimenting repeatedly.

Heaving a sigh, he dispersed the space-time ability on his hand, and a few wisps of silver-gray energy flickered for a moment before turning into a smoky mist and disappearing.

Standing up, Xiaya walked around on the God of Destruction’s Planet, and he happened to see Kusu instructing Meifei on how to use the “Energy of Destruction.”

Meifei was learning this technique very seriously because she thinks it’s very cool when using it as taking down the enemy with one move is extremely eye-catching.

Perhaps due to the unique nature of Xiaya’s inheritance of the God of Destruction’s position, when Meifei inherited the position from him, her attire did not undergo major changes. Except for two gold wrist guards which appeared on her wrists, there was no Egyptian pharaoh-like clothing.

Currently, Meifei was still wearing her favorite clothes.

After standing on the side and watching his daughter’s spar with Kusu for a while, Xiaya continued to wander around the God of Destruction’s Planet, hoping to gain some insights.

At this time, Angel Camparri flew over from the horizon.

“Xiaya-sama, Universe 3’s God of Destruction Klein has come to visit.”

Xiaya was surprised and asked, “Klein, that ancient God of Destruction? Why did he come to Universe 1?”
