4)Talk and observations(1/2)

After a few seconds the aura disappeared and Dugu Bo looked at Erym.

"What do you know about it child?" asked Dugu Bo earnestly, slightly releasing the pressure of a Douluo Entitled.

Erym looked at the old man and felt that something was wrong, Dugu Bo is already a Douluo Titled, Dugu Xin is still alive when by now Dugu Bo would have to be between 75-79 levels and Dugu Xin in a decadent situation.

In a few years Dugu Yan would be born and his mother would die giving birth to him, Dugu Xin would die two or three years later while Dugu Bo would ascend to level 90.

But now it is different, Dugu Bo is 60-something years old, his hair is half black and green, his eyes are green, Dugu Xin can be at ease and only after a two and a half hour trip he became a little sick.

From his observations and questions, Dugu Xin was 30 years old and his wife was 30 years old, they were planning to get married this year after Dugu Bo became a titled Douluo.

After a few seconds of silence and thinking Erym spoke "yes, what caused that, it must be the awakening of a Divine Grade Martial Soul, just like mine, only his is of the angels according to my Martial Soul" Erym words surprised Dugu Bo as well as Dugu Xin and Yin Xia who just left the room.

"Divine Grade Martial Soul" said the young couple in surprise.

"Is that real?" Asked somewhat unsure Dugu Bo, with his vast knowledge he didn't know that Divine Grade Martial Soul could exist (the Angel counts as a Super Martial Soul that innately gives level 10, but other than having all-around abilities only Qian Renxue can be counted as a true Super Martial Soul since she was chosen as the heir of the Angel God. The rest are just a Superior Martial Soul among the best of their kind).

Erym nodded and looked at the three "I am an example, though only those chosen by a god can awaken a Divine Martial Soul(Super Martial Soul), with a few exceptions of near divine Martial Souls(Dragon Kings and every 1 million year old beast)."

Dugu Bo still felt surprised but nodded in understanding, in thousands of years of history, although rumors are known that above level 99 is the god level, in thousands of years no actual cases of such an event actually happening could be recorded.

(The war that divided the dragon god erased much of the history of humans and went back thousands of years, only clans like the Qian had record of the gods and above level 100).

Dugu Xin sat on one of the chairs around the table and looked at Erym "Who can be considered exceptions?" At his question the others were also curious.

Erym smiled and calmly replied "The heirs of a god, those who awaken Martial Souls of beings who were close to god level and the like" everyone nodded and Dugu Bo gained some understanding.

The person who awakened now belonged to the Angel clan, so the Qian clan must be descendants of some God, since for thousands of years the Qian clan has had powerhouses at the Titled Douluo level, only as they rise, they fall.

It is said that the Qian clan remains hidden, others say that they were exterminated a thousand years ago and that the Qian Daoliu lineage is the last one left.

Dugu Bo looked at Erym and after a few seconds of thought seemed to make up his mind "Child, what is your name".

With a smile Erym looked at Dugu Bo and replied "Erym, your Excellency" the elder Douluo nodded and continued asking "due to your awakening you must be 6 years old, from your words you must be a Divine Grade Martial Soul as you said" Erym smiled and laughed slightly then nodded and then closed his eyes.

The moment he closed his eyes he tried to activate his Martial Soul but he felt that it resisted to come out, but still the golden arc emerged from his back with the divine glow.

Before this resistance to manifest, Erym, realized that Arceus was not just another representation of power, but a real incarnation only in the form of Martial Soul.

I try to understand why Arceus, a god that could possibly be at Multiversal level, would leave an incarnation of himself as a Martial Soul in me, he would not do it with the purpose of possessing a human body or invading the Douluo world, with his power he does not need such problematic and long methods.

Besides Arceus is more inclined to a Neutral side, a god as such, he created good and evil for a necessary balance, he has always been observant and very rarely took actions by himself.

I tried to try to understand him, but he gave up, it is useless to try to understand an Omnipresent and almost Omniscient being like Arceus, maybe he does it by the simple fact of wanting to see what could happen or because he wanted to prove that he could cause a human to have a real incarnation of him as his Martial Soul.

There are many possibilities, both good and bad, but to this day, Arceus has done nothing but help and benefit them.

When they saw each other in his mental space Arceus cleansed much of his inner demons and darkness that was formed by the traumas of his past life.

I felt it clearly as those dark and depressing thoughts that accompanied me for 6 years disappeared, my mind felt light, the world seemed to get millions of shades of color, thousands of new sounds and my feelings felt as free as a bird in flight, ready for me to control and guide them to my desire.

After a few seconds he opened his eyes and they glowed golden covering his entire sclera, Dugu Bo was surprised but quickly reacted by covering the house with his aura, because it was a Semi-Active state, Arceus natural divine aura did not expand uncontrollably, it just lingered around Erym.

"What a powerful Martial Soul, I feel how it suppresses me in every way" spoke Dugu Bo seriously and calmly, Dugu Xin and Yin Xia could feel how the poison in their body was suppressed and to some extent purified.

"It's normal, my Martial Soul is Arceus, a God that is above all the gods of our world, only his presence could resist the celestial laws and allowed me to reach level 15 innately, Something that should be impossible" Erym spoke calmly while looking at himself, as well as the thousand hands on his back, he realized that this treasure is inactive for now, or at least, he couldn't use it in its current state.

According to Erym's knowledge, the current Douluo world did not allow an innate level 15 as in Douluo 4 or 5 where the celestial laws had been altered by the various events of previous eras.

The current world only allowed an innate level 10 and the extra levels could only be granted by a god, like Qian Renxue, who received 10 levels from the Angel God with the intention that Qian Renxue would reach level 90 as fast as possible and begin his divine test.

Arceus couldn't do the same as the Angel God, no, he didn't want to, he just used his powerful stamina and natural power to help me resist the Celestial Laws, allowing me to go up to level 15 without the need of a ring.
