Even among the Five Great God Kings, there are differences.

Although they are all members of the God Realm Committee along with Asura, Destruction, Life, in reality, when it comes to making important decisions, as long as Evil and Goodness reach a consensus, they can directly determine the course of events.

Evil and Goodness were the original divine beings in the Divine Realm, each holding two votes, while the other three gods each had only one vote.

In reality, the two of them were in charge of the Divine Realm.

The decision to bestow God Position upon Douluo Star was made jointly by several gods, and they were also aware of the subsequent additions. Naturally, the two gods had also noticed Asura's recent actions, but since he was merely observing and had not taken any action, they did not interfere.

They knew very well that Destruction and Asura didn't get along, and if Destruction found out about this, it would start another round of pointless arguments, and in the end, it would be them who were arguing.

However, it seems that he does have some ideas now. Fortunately, he hasn't done it yet and knows to consult them first.

"So, what are you trying to say?"

Before Destruction could speak, Evil took the initiative to ask.

"I want to pass on the Asura God to him when he becomes a god."

Asura glanced at Destruction, a slight smile playing on his lips, and said calmly.

"Are you serious?"

Before Evil and Goodness could even speak, they heard the sound of Destruction, and their expressions turned somewhat strange.

"Of course I wouldn't joke about this. Besides, wasn't he originally one of my chosen successors? It's just that he had the idea of Self-Created Godhood, which is why it's been delayed until now."

Asura's expression remained as indifferent as ever, and what he said was indeed a generally accepted fact.

Destruction glanced at him, opened his mouth, but didn't continue. He and Asura had always been rivals, and there was a certain conflict between their duties and laws.

To be precise, Asura has always been searching for a successor, unlike him and Life, who are husband and wife and can harmonize the laws of each other.

Asura is always alone, and because of the laws and his duties, killing and judgment are always with him. As he gets stronger, the divine power also backfires on him. It is only because he is strong that no problems have occurred, but if this continues, there will always be hidden dangers.

Finding a suitable successor is actually a good thing for both him and the Divine Realm. However, as an old rival, Destruction still felt a little uneasy. He had never defeated the opponent in a direct confrontation, and now the Asura God was about to change his successor.

As for the lone Asura, it goes without saying that he would definitely leave the Divine Realm. He had expressed this intention before. Besides, this is someone else's Godhood Inheritance, so what can he say?

"Using your inheritance and his own advancement opportunities, can you directly elevate him to the God King level?"

Evil and Goodness exchanged a glance. To be honest, they couldn't seem to find any reason to object. Asura's departure would directly replenish the combat power of a God King, and for a long time, they wouldn't have to worry about the backlash from Asura Divine Power. It was practically Double Happiness.

"Yes, that's what I think, and..."

Seeing that the four gods did not object, Asura paused slightly before continuing, "Moreover, I have other considerations. You should remember the people who entered my Land of Inheritance with him, right?"

The four gods nodded.

"The Asura Divine Power is not so easy to control, so I plan to make the three women who participated in the God Exam by his side also become his successors."

"Let me finish speaking first."

Seeing that the gods were about to speak, Asura made a prediction in advance.

"It is already difficult to find successors for our Godhood Inheritance. I do not want to frequently change the candidates after selecting a successor because I cannot control the power."

"You are all well aware of Han Li's aptitude, growth potential, and his unique qualities. As Evil said before, given enough time, he has a high probability of growing into God King level powerhouse."

At this point, Asura glanced at Evil, Evil then looked at the light screen and nodded, not objecting to what he meant.

Han Li young, and he's still in the lower realm, which speaks volumes about his talent.

"Don't forget, after he passed my test, he directly made the originally planned Divine Slaughter's Domain his own. I am 100% certain that he can master the Asura Divine Power and become a qualified Asura God."

"However, and this is the most important point I want to make, we still haven't found the reason why the Douluo Plane changed, why the Plane Consciousness suddenly awakened and became bound to Han Li."

As he spoke, Asura flicked his finger in the air, and the image on the light screen was stretched into the universe, revealing the complete form of Douluo Star to the gods present.

In the center of the light screen, the outer layer of the slowly rotating planet can be seen constantly converting energy from the universe and sending it into the planet's interior.

"So far, the overall energy concentration of Douluo Star has exceeded that of other planets of similar size by more than ten times. However, the increase has been relatively slow and has not yet formed any spectacular landscapes based on the planet's topography."

"But in reality, it is much stronger than we initially estimated. If Han Li can continue to evolve after officially entering the god level, its value and development potential may not be lower than that of the Divine Realm."

"You've all seen Han Li's methods. He's the controller of Douluo Star and not someone easy to deal with. So, if you want the Divine Realm to continue to upgrade and take over the Douluo Star plane from him, you must be sincere. This will also be beneficial to the future stability of the Divine Realm."

"And the position of the Asura God is my answer. What do you think?"

After saying this in one breath, Asura looked at the four gods. This was indeed his true thought. He had not yet stepped down, so naturally he would prioritize the interests of the Divine Realm.

The God Realm Central Hub fell silent. The four gods bowed their heads in deep thought, analyzing what Asura had said.

"Your words and your actions do not match."

The God of Life, who rarely speaks, was the first to speak this time.

"Yes, I did it on purpose."

Asura didn't see anything wrong with Life's questioning of him; on the contrary, he readily admitted it.

"Do you think he has a connection to the Dragon God? Or are you afraid he'll become the next Dragon God?"

The Godess of Kindness also spoke, and his words were quite explosive.

"I'm not sure. Logically speaking, it's impossible for Douluo to give birth to Plane Consciousness. Moreover, I've already chosen a successor, but he suddenly appeared and ruined everything. How do you explain that?"

"I admire him, but I am also very wary. I have not found any trace of any connection between him and the Dragon God, but that does not prevent me from making preparations."

"Actually, once he becomes a god, you will need to make your own judgment. I have only done some preliminary work, which can be considered as a final gift to the Divine Realm."

Asura spoke his mind almost without thinking, which meant he had definitely planned it all out long ago.

"So, the authority of the God Position is being distributed among other people?"

Looking at Asura's indifferent expression, Evil realized for the first time how far-sighted the other party was.

"Yes, if he has no problems, the compensation for the God King position is sufficient and will not affect his subsequent cultivation. It can even reduce the pressure in the early stages."

"If he has problems, even if he inherits the God Position, it will take him some time to reclaim the full authority from the others. This is the buffer we are giving you. Once the battle begins, if he wants to unleash the power of the Asura God, those three will become a burden to him."

"Besides, whether there is a problem or not, once he ascends to the Divine Realm, he will be easily discovered, and he will not have the opportunity to grow into the next Dragon God."

"If it weren't for the value of Douluo Star and the difficulty in handling the subsequent issues, given his personality, he might have made a deep-seated enemy, and could even have forcibly broken through his control and blockade of the planet. It's obvious at a glance."

A red light flashed in Asura's eyes. If he had full authority, he would not mind doing so. This has always been his style of doing things. He has always been a radical, even more extreme than Destruction.

"So, this is the real reason why you accelerated the God Exam of those around him?"

Only now did a look of realization appear on his Evil face. No wonder.

On the other side, Destruction's expression changed upon hearing his words. He instinctively wanted to rebuke such behavior, but Life beside him tugged at his sleeve and shook him to stop him from speaking.

His beloved wife's intervention finally calmed his Destruction emotions. He glanced at Asura with a complicated expression and closed his eyes.

To be honest, if Asura hadn't given such a compelling reason today, and if no matter how you look at it, he was doing his last bit for the Divine Realm, he would have inevitably fought with him under normal circumstances. As God of Law Enforcement, this would have violated his own duties.

After noticing the two's subtle actions, Evil smiled awkwardly. Fortunately, they were all sensible people; otherwise, if a fight broke out, he wouldn't be on anyone's side.

"What if he's unwilling to relinquish control of the plane?"

Goodness spoke up once again.

"Regarding this, I will make an agreement with him before passing on the God Position when I make contact with him. It will also be a good opportunity to test him and see his reaction."

"If he is willing to hand it over, that would be best. If not, I will give up passing on the Godhood Inheritance. Even if he advances, it will only be through the most ordinary laws, posing no threat to us."

"Moreover, does he really think that so many Godhood Inheritance are so easy to obtain? With his connection to Douluo Star, he might be able to extend the time he can stay in the lower realm, but the people around him cannot."

"When those people finish their assessments, we'll just order them to ascend within a year."

Asura's voice was very cold, and he didn't say anything more, but the four gods wouldn't be confused, after all, they weren't gods who were completely unaware of Asura's methods.

"Can."

After a long while, several voices rang out from the God Realm Central Hub.
