Chapter 486 Recruiting the General?
Tang Chuan stood in the center of the overwhelming divine power, with the Trident of the Sea God in his right hand and the Asura Demon Sword in his left. Facing the siege of the six great gods, there was no sign of retreat in his eyes.
"You're allowed to kill me, but I'm not allowed to hurt you?"
"When will the rules of the divine realm be decided by the seven of you?"
The Blue Silver Divine Tree suddenly swayed behind Tang Chuan.
Countless blue-gold vines grew out of the void.
"The Soul of the Azure Dragon, Blue Silver Sky!"
The deafening roar of the dragon echoed throughout the sea.
A blue-gold azure dragon, ten thousand feet long, burst forth from the Blue Silver Divine Tree.
The dragon raised its head high and slammed its massive claws forward.
The myriad whip shadows unleashed by the God of Lust were all torn to shreds by the dragon's claws.
The azure dragon's tail swept out, forcing the wrathful god to retreat.
Tang Chuan took the opportunity to spin around.
The Trident of Poseidon and the Demon Sword of Asura danced simultaneously.
The blue-gold halberd light and the dark red sword energy intertwined to form a terrifying storm.
"Sea God Asura - Ten Thousand Blades Return to Nothingness!"
boom!
The blue-red storm suddenly expanded.
The divine light released by the god of jealousy shattered first.
The Lazy God Realm was also forcibly cut open by the Asura Sword Qi.
The God of Wrath blocked with both fists, but was still blasted away by dozens of sword energies and halberd beams. The God of Lust's crimson whip was cut in two by the Asura Demon Sword, and he himself suffered a backlash, spitting out divine blood.
The seven-colored divine sword in the hands of the God of Pride clashed with the blue and red storm.
It only lasted a few breaths before cracks appeared on the sword.
"break!"
Tang Chuan wielded the Asura Demon Sword.
A crimson sword aura pierced through the storm and struck the Seven-Colored Divine Sword heavily.
The divine sword shattered with a deafening roar.
The god of arrogance was struck hard in the chest, and his body flew backward, shattering dozens of layers of space.
The seven original sin gods were utterly defeated.
The God of Greed lay in the abyss of the sea, his chest pierced by the Asura Demon Sword, his divine essence almost severed by the sword.
The god of gluttony had both arms broken off, and his abdomen was pierced by the trident of the sea god. His breath was so weak that it was almost imperceptible.
The other five gods also suffered injuries.
In particular, the gods of wrath and pride had their divine armor shattered, and their divine bodies were still covered with a large amount of Asura sword energy that could not be dispelled.
The God of Arrogance clutched his chest, and for the first time, genuine fear appeared in his eyes as he looked at Tang Chuan.
If they continue fighting, they might be able to inflict even more serious injuries on Tang Chuan.
But the gods of greed and gluttony are doomed to die.
Even the others might have their divine essence damaged by the Asura Demon Sword.
"withdraw!"
The god of arrogance gritted his teeth and spat out a single word.
The gods of jealousy and lust swiftly fell into the sea, each supporting the broken bodies of the gods of greed and gluttony.
The god of sloth raised his hand and tore open a spatial rift.
On the other side of the crack, one can vaguely see the seven-colored divine light of the divine realm.
The god of wrath looked resentful.
"The seven of us joined forces, yet we were defeated by a human who had just become a god?"
"Shut up!"
The god of pride roared:
"Save them first!"
Tang Chuan did not chase into the spatial passage. He hovered on the sea surface, the Asura Demon Sword pointing diagonally downwards, dark red divine blood slowly dripping down the blade.
"Go back and tell the Divine Realm Committee."
"The next time I come to Douluo Continent, it won't be as simple as just seriously injuring two people."
The Seven Deadly Sins looked extremely grim, but they did not refute him. Having personally experienced the power of the Asura Demon Sword, they knew very well that Tang Chuan was not bluffing.
The spatial rift closed rapidly.
The figures of the seven deities completely disappeared.
Tang Chuan watched the direction they left in, his tense body finally swaying slightly. He looked down at his hands. The tiger's mouth of his right hand, which was gripping the Trident of Poseidon, was completely split open, and his left arm was covered with bloody lines from the impact of the Asura God's power.
Using two divine artifacts at the same time, especially forcibly activating the Asura Demon Sword, also put a great burden on his body.
But the result of this battle is enough.
The seven original sin gods descended together.
In the end, however, he was defeated by him alone.
Two of them were seriously injured and on the verge of death.
From this day forward, if the God Realm wishes to send anyone to interfere in the Douluo Continent, they must first consider whether they can withstand the judgment of the Asura Demon Sword.
……
Spirit world.
A spatial rift suddenly opened above the Temple of the Seven Deadly Sins.
Seven disheveled figures tumbled out from within.
Before the several priests responsible for patrolling the divine realm could react, they saw the God of Jealousy and the God of Lust each carrying two blood-covered people as they rushed toward the temple.
"quick!"
"Open the Pool of Original Sin!"
"The very essence of their divine status—greed and gluttony—is damaged. If this continues, they will die!"
The priests' expressions changed drastically.
The god of greed had a gaping hole in his chest, a bloody wound that ran from front to back.
The edges of the wound were wreathed in dark red sword energy. Whenever the divine power of life tried to repair the divine body, the sword energy would immediately erupt, tearing the newly healed flesh apart again.
The god of gluttony was in a similarly miserable state.
His arms were reduced to two bloody, mangled cuts, and his abdomen was almost completely pierced through.
The power of the Sea God and the power of the Asura God remained in his body, constantly damaging his divine body.
The Temple of the Seven Deadly Sins was in complete chaos.
A large amount of divine life force was injected into the Primordial Sin Pool.
The gods of greed and gluttony were placed in the pool of water, and only then did their breathing barely stabilize.
But they still did not wake up.
The cracks in the very essence of divinity did not heal immediately.
The god of arrogance stood beside the divine pool, his face so gloomy it seemed as if water could drip from it.
The god of wrath smashed the nearby divine stone with a single punch.
"Asura God!"
"He demands an explanation for this!"
"Tang Chuan has already inherited the Sea God's position, so why is he still able to use the Asura Demon Sword?"
The god of jealousy said coldly:
"That is definitely not an ordinary projection of a divine artifact. The Asura Demon Sword contains complete judicial authority, and it can even directly damage the very essence of our divine position."
The god of laziness, unusually, did not show any signs of drowsiness.
"What's really strange is that the Asura Demon Sword didn't reject Tang Chuan."
"The power he can unleash far exceeds the level of temporarily borrowing a divine artifact."
The god of pride turned around.
"Walk."
"Go to the Divine Realm Committee."
After a while.
Five beams of divine light streaked across the sky of the divine realm, heading straight for the central hub of the divine realm where the Divine Realm Committee was located.
The gods of greed and gluttony were too badly injured to remain in the Pool of Original Sin for treatment. The other five gods of original sin, still recovering from their injuries, stormed directly into the central hub of the divine realm.
boom!
The heavy temple doors were pushed open by the god of wrath with a single palm strike.
The goddess of life, the god of goodness, and the god of evil looked up almost simultaneously, while the god of destruction sat to one side, his purple eyes narrowing slightly as he saw the disheveled state of the five original sin gods.
And at the deepest part of the temple.
A man dressed in dark red divine attire sat there quietly.
Beside him stood a massive, dark red sword that exuded a chilling aura of slaughter.
The Asura Demon Sword.
The moment they saw the sword, the faces of the five original sin gods became even more grim.
Tang Chuan possessed a Shura Demon Sword.
But now, there is still one beside the God of Asura!
The god of wrath could no longer suppress the rage within him.
He took a step forward, staring intently at the God of Asura.
"Shura!"
"You must give us an explanation!"
The Asura God sat serenely on his throne, his expression remaining calm.
Even though the divine armor on the five original sin gods was shattered, their aura was disordered, and even a strong Asura sword intent remained, his expression did not change much.
But when his gaze fell on the sword wound on the God of Wrath's chest that was slow to heal, a strange glint flashed deep in his blood-red eyes.
"Explain what?"
The Asura God asked calmly.
Upon hearing this, the god of rage nearly erupted on the spot.
"Why are you asking for an explanation?"
"Tang Chuan has already inherited the Sea God's position, yet the Asura Demon Sword has appeared in his hand!"
"That's not an ordinary projection of a divine artifact, nor is it a fake created using divine power; it's a true super artifact possessing the power of Asura's Judgment!"
The god of wrath pointed to the wound on his chest.
The dark red sword energy still lingered deep within the wound, continuously eroding his divine body.
Even after returning to the realm of gods, he mobilized a large amount of divine power to suppress the injury, but he could only barely stop it from worsening and could not completely dispel it.
"You should be more familiar with this power than anyone else."
"Greed and gluttony almost died by that sword!"
"Even now, the origins of their divine status have not stabilized."
"Shouldn't you tell us where Tang Chuan got the Asura Demon Sword from?"
The temple was completely silent.
The gazes of the goddess of life, the god of goodness, and the god of evil all fell upon the god of asura.
Even the God of Destruction narrowed his eyes slightly.
Although he had already learned the general situation from the descriptions of the five original sin gods, he was still somewhat surprised when he actually saw the remaining injuries on their bodies.
Especially the god of greed and the god of gluttony.
Both of them were genuine first-level deities.
The seven original sin gods joined forces to descend upon Douluo Continent, but instead of bringing Tang Chuan back to the God Realm, they were defeated head-on, with two of them even seriously injured and on the verge of death.
To achieve this level of accomplishment is far more than just the position of the Sea God.
The Asura God remained silent for a moment.
Then, he slowly raised his right hand.
The Asura Demon Sword standing beside the divine throne emitted a low, resonant sword cry.
hum-
A chilling aura of slaughter permeated the temple.
The five original sin gods tensed up simultaneously, their eyes fixed on the dark red giant sword.
Whether it's the aura or the oppressive force, there's nothing wrong with the Asura Demon Sword before us.
This is the ultimate artifact that the Asura God has wielded for countless years.
But if the real Asura Demon Sword is still here, then what is the sword in Tang Chuan's hand?
After a moment, the Asura God finally spoke.
"What Tang Chuan holds is indeed the Asura Demon Sword."
Upon hearing this, all the gods present were startled.
The god of wrath immediately roared:
"That's impossible!"
"The real Asura Demon Sword is clearly in your hands!"
"A super artifact isn't an ordinary artifact, how could there be two of them at the same time?"
"Quiet."
The Asura God only uttered two words.
An invisible killing pressure descended instantly.
The God of Wrath shuddered. Although his heart was still filled with rage, he dared not continue to question loudly and could only grit his teeth and take half a step back.
Asura God's gaze swept over the crowd, and he slowly said:
"Long ago, I began to search for my successor to the divine throne."
"The days in the realm of gods are too long, and I cannot sit in the position of the Asura God forever."
"Therefore, I chose Douluo Continent as the place of inheritance."
The God of Destruction frowned slightly.
"You also left behind a divine legacy in Douluo Continent?"
"good."
The Asura God nodded.
"Although Douluo Continent is only a lower plane, many humans with the potential to become gods were born there."
"If the Sea God can find a successor there, so can I."
At this point, the Asura God raised his hand and grasped the Asura Demon Sword beside him.
Ancient magical runes lit up on the dark red surface of the sword.
"In order to ensure that the inheritor can truly master the power of Asura, I originally separated a part of the Asura Demon Sword's essence and left it in the inheritance land of Douluo Continent."
"Although that part of the origin cannot compare to the complete Asura Demon Sword, it still retains the authority of Asura judgment, slaughter, and destruction of divine souls."
"As long as the inheritor passes enough tests, they will be able to gain the recognition of that part of the divine artifact's origin."
The god of arrogance's expression changed slightly.
"You mean, Tang Chuan entered your inheritance site without his knowledge?"
"He wasn't completely unaware."
The Asura God said calmly:
"Those who are able to undergo the divine qualification test will receive corresponding prompts. Since Tang Chuan has already used the essence of the Asura Demon Sword, it means that he has already undergone the Asura God Test."
The god of jealousy couldn't help but ask:
"Which exam has he taken?"
The Asura God did not answer immediately.
A faint blood-red light appeared in his eyes.
Above the temple, dark red divine power slowly gathered, eventually forming a blurry image.
In the scene, Tang Chuan stands amidst a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
His feet were covered with broken armor and weapons, and he was surrounded by endless vengeful spirits.
Tang Chuan held a Shura Demon Sword that was not yet fully formed, slashing through the dead souls rushing towards him time and time again.
Even though he was covered in blood and his soul was almost broken, he never put down his sword.
The scene keeps changing.
kill.
Illusion.
Trial.
Heart demon.
The trials came one after another, almost every one of which was enough to completely break down an ordinary god-successor.
But Tang Chuan stubbornly persevered.
Finally, the scene freezes on the moment when Tang Chuan gains the approval of the Asura Demon Sword's origin.
The Asura God withdrew his divine power.
The image in mid-air then disappeared.
"The Eighth Test"
The Asura God slowly uttered three words.
The entire central hub of the divine realm fell silent instantly.
The anger on the faces of the five original sin gods gradually turned into shock.
"The eighth test?"
The God of Lust stared at the God of Asura in disbelief.
"Has he already completed the eighth trial of Asura?"
"How is this possible? He has already inherited the position of the Sea God, so why is he still able to continue your divine qualification assessment?"
Even the goddess of life showed a hint of surprise in her eyes.
For an ordinary being to gain the approval of a first-level deity is already one in ten thousand.
Being able to inherit a first-level godhood is an extremely rare occurrence even in countless planes.
Tang Chuan not only gained the Sea God's approval and inherited the complete Sea God's position, but also carried out the Asura God Trial to its eighth stage.
This can no longer be simply described as talent.
The God of Evil looked at the God of Asura.
"Now that he has completed the eighth test, it means that he is only one step away from inheriting the position of the Asura God."
"good."
The Asura God nodded.
"The ninth test is the succession to the divine position."
"As long as he passes the final test, he will be able to inherit the position of the Asura God and obtain the true and complete power of the Asura God."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the five original sin gods changed simultaneously.
Tang Chuan only possesses a portion of the Asura Demon Sword's essence, yet he is already able to defeat all seven of them.
If he were to inherit the position of the Asura God and become the new Asura God...
They simply couldn't imagine what level of strength Tang Chuan would reach.
The god of wrath immediately said:
"We absolutely cannot allow him to continue with the ninth test!"
"He is now openly defying the divine realm and has nearly killed Greed and Gluttony."
"Once he inherits the Asura Godhood, who in the divine realm will be able to restrain him?"
The Asura God gave him a cold look.
"The seven of you descended upon Douluo Continent, attempting to forcibly bring him back to the God Realm."
"Isn't he allowed to resist?"
"But he severely injured two first-level deities!"
"The god of jealousy said in a deep voice."
"That's because you're not as skilled as them."
The Asura God's tone remained completely unchanged.
One sentence made the faces of the five original sin gods extremely ugly.
And yet, they were unable to refute it.
Seven first-level gods joined forces to deal with a human who had only recently inherited the position of sea god, but they were utterly defeated.
No matter what reasons you give, you can't hide the fact that you failed.
The God of Destruction suddenly spoke.
"Shura, you knew all along that Tang Chuan had accepted your divine test?"
The Asura God remained silent for a moment.
"Only after the eighth test was completed did I truly sense that the Asura Demon Sword's essence had recognized its master."
"Before that, the Land of Inheritance operated on its own according to the rules I left behind."
"Tang Chuan's ability to reach the eighth trial was not the result of my deliberate selection. It can only be said that he just happened to meet the requirements for the Asura God position and also luckily obtained my inheritance."
The Asura God spoke calmly.
But none of the gods present truly believed that this was merely a stroke of luck.
The assessment for divine status may involve an element of chance.
However, it is impossible to complete all eight Asura God Trials in a row by luck alone.
Especially the position of the Asura God.
That is one of the five great divine king positions in the divine realm.
The difficulty of the assessment far exceeds that of ordinary first-level gods.
Since Tang Chuan was able to reach the eighth test, it means that he has gained the recognition of the Asura God in terms of will, talent, and temperament.
The goddess of life whispered:
"He has already inherited the position of the Sea God. If he also inherits the position of the Asura God, he will become a rare dual-god holder."
"Moreover, the divine powers of the Sea God and the Asura God are completely different in nature."
"One is vast and all-encompassing, the other is in charge of judgment and killing."
"It is indeed surprising that he can withstand two divine powers at the same time."
The god of kindness nodded slightly.
"Judging from the results brought back by the five original sin gods, he is not only able to withstand the two powers, but has even begun to try to use the two powers in combination."
"If he continues to grow, it probably won't be long before he truly steps into the God-King level."
Hearing this, the five original sin gods felt even heavier.
Originally, they only wanted to question the God of Asura.
But to my surprise, I learned an even more shocking piece of news.
Tang Chuan is only one test away from inheriting the position of the Asura God.
If successful, the divine realm will have one more being who simultaneously holds the authority of both the Sea God and the Asura God.
Just as the atmosphere in the temple grew increasingly tense, the god of evil suddenly laughed.
"This may not necessarily be a bad thing."
All the gods looked at him.
The God of Wrath frowned and said:
"He severely injured two Gods of Original Sin, isn't that a bad thing?"
The God of Evil ignored the God of Wrath and instead turned his gaze to the God of Asura.
"The reason Tang Chuan is resisting the God Realm is because he believes that the God Realm is interfering with Douluo Continent and is hostile towards him."
"But what if we try a different approach?"
The God of Destruction asked:
"In what way?"
The evil god slowly rose from his throne.
"Now that Tang Chuan has completed the eighth trial of the Asura, let him continue to complete the ninth trial."
"Let him inherit the position of the Asura God."
The god of wrath's expression changed.
"Are you crazy?"
"He already dares to oppose the divine realm; if he becomes the God of Asura, wouldn't he be even more uncontrollable?"
"Precisely because he already possesses the power to confront the divine realm, we cannot continue to force him with harsh methods."
The God of Evil said calmly:
"Even if the seven original sin gods joined forces, they could not defeat him."
"Does this mean we'll have to send out even more first-level deities next time?"
"Should we have the God-King descend to the mortal realm himself?"
No one answered.
The divine realm has its own rules. Gods cannot interfere with the lower realms at will, nor can they recklessly engage in god-king level battles in lower planes.
The evil god continued:
"Since we can't control him, let's bring him to our side."
"Tang Chuan has already inherited the position of the Sea God, and therefore already has the qualifications to enter the God Realm."
"Now he has completed the eighth trial of Asura."
"As long as Shura passes the divine position to him, he will become one of the new enforcers of the divine realm."
"At that time, he will no longer be just Tang Chuan from Douluo Continent, but the Asura God of the God Realm."
"Different identities naturally lead to different stances."
The god of kindness seemed to be deep in thought.
"You mean you're using the Asura Godhood as a condition to invite him to formally enter the realm of gods?"
"Good, find a way to recruit him!" The evil god nodded and said solemnly, "Divine position, authority, a seat in the divine realm, and the safety of those he cares about."
"These can all be used as conditions for negotiation."
"Instead of pushing him to the opposite side of the divine realm, we should take the initiative to accept him."
