He is now confident that he can take down his old rival, who is in poor form and has lost his magic weapon, while maintaining control of the situation!

"Since you refuse to prove it yourself, then I will verify it myself!"

Before the words were even finished, the God of Destruction made a sudden attack! The dark purple Destruction Divine Power, like a roaring, angry dragon, carried the aura of the law that annihilates all things, transforming into countless sharp chains and lightning bolts that swept over the Asura God!

"Destruction! How dare you!" The Asura God was filled with shock and rage. His crimson Asura Divine Power surged out wildly, condensing into countless sword shadows as he desperately resisted.

Almost simultaneously, the Angel God Qian Renxue, who had long been unable to contain her anger, also made her move!

Six wings spread behind her, and blazing Angel Holy Light soared into the sky, transforming into a golden stream of light that rushed straight towards the Life Goddess who was trying to rescue the Asura God!

"Life Goddess, forgive me! This matter concerns the very foundation of the Divine Realm, please remain on the sidelines for now!" Qian Renxue's voice was cold and clear. The Angel Holy Sword in her hand drew a dazzling trajectory. She did not seek to harm the enemy, but only to hold the Life Goddess firmly in place and prevent her from interfering in the battle.

Although Qian Renxue still hasn't figured out the Life Goddess's idiotic thought process.

Caught off guard, the Life Goddess was stopped by Qian Renxue's sharp sword light. Watching the Asura God be surrounded, she was both anxious and confused.

The battle erupted instantly!

Although the Asura God fought valiantly, defeat was already evident.

He was already injured by Tang San's sneak attack, and the Asura Divine Sword, the super-grade artifact that made him famous, had long been lost. Now, facing the God of Destruction Scepter of Destruction, the gap in strength was further widened.

The Asura Divine Power that once made many gods tremble was now struggling to cope and was retreating step by step.

Moreover, the newly appointed Godess of Kindness, Dongfang Yao, and the Evil God, Arthur, are also eyeing them covetously.

Although they did not directly join the battle, their auras were firmly locked onto the battlefield, and divine power faintly flowed in their hands.

The meaning couldn't be clearer: if the Asura God were to manage to force back the God of Destruction, they would immediately follow up, giving him no chance to catch his breath or escape.

"Boom!"

With a muffled thud, the dark purple chains of destruction finally broke through the layers of blood-red divine power's defenses, Entanglement the Asura God's body like a venomous python. Destructive lightning exploded on his body, causing him to groan and his divine power to suddenly stagnate.

The outcome is decided!

The God of Destruction lunged forward, striking the Asura God in the chest with a palm strike. A surge of Destruction Divine Power penetrated his body, temporarily sealing off most of his divine power. Layers of purplish-black chains tightened, firmly imprisoning the former God of Law Enforcement in place, rendering him unable to move.

"Now, let me see what secrets you are hiding." The God of Destruction said expressionlessly, placing his hand on the Asura God's shoulder. His powerful and meticulous divine sense, like the most precise probe, began to scan the Asura God's body inch by inch. At such close range, and under the joint supervision of multiple God-King level beings, it was virtually impossible for the Asura God to use any spatial secrets or concealment methods to hide items.

The search process was not long.

A moment later, the God of Destruction's eyes narrowed, and he made a fist, forcibly extracting two orbs of light from the Asura God's body. These orbs were enveloped in blood-red divine power, yet their original fluctuations were still difficult to completely conceal.

As the God of Destruction unleashed his power, the crimson restrictions surrounding the ball of light peeled away layer by layer.

"Buzz--!"

Two completely different, yet equally vast and powerful divine energy fluctuations, each containing the aura of supreme laws, suddenly erupted!

On the left is a pure, flawless gemstone, as clear and crystalline as a teardrop. Inside, a milky white halo seems to flow slowly, and wherever the light touches, it brings a sense of peace, tranquility, and hope.

On the right is an ancient and sophisticated scale, possibly crafted from some dark metal. Its surface is deep, smooth, and cold, engraved with Inscription representing laws and punishments. It radiates a pure, jet-black light, exuding majesty and a sense of oppression.

These two items, one of the symbols of the supreme authority of Goddess of Kindness and God of Evil, now radiate an undeniable primal divine power, silently hovering in the hand of the God of Destruction, exposed to the gaze of all the gods.

A deathly silence reigned over the ruins.

All the gods, whether they were the God of Destruction lineage who had long harbored doubts, the old subordinates and neutrals who had originally hoped to defend the Asura God, or even the Life Goddess who was so shaken that he could hardly think, all stared blankly at the two divine artifacts, and then at the Asura God who was tightly bound by the chains of destruction and whose face was ashen.

No further words are needed.

The evidence is irrefutable.

What Tang San said was actually true.

"Hahaha, even the Asura God has met his end!" Tang San laughed maniacally as he watched this scene.

··········································

The Life Goddess trembled violently, staggered back a step, and the original firmness and protection in his emerald green eyes crumbled like shattered glass, leaving only endless bewilderment, shock, and... a gradually spreading coldness and pain.

She slowly turned her head to look at the Asura God, the man she had trusted for countless years.

The God of Destruction's gaze was as cold as an ancient abyss.

He stared intently at the Asura God, his body crackling with destructive lightning, suppressing his overwhelming rage and killing intent.

So that's how it is! No wonder the Asura God was so resistant to the expansion plan, no wonder his attitude towards the new god of Goddess of Kindness and Evil God was so ambiguous...

Qian Renxue gripped the Angel Holy Sword tightly, its golden divine power burning fiercely with rage. Such actions, the betrayal of her colleagues, the undermining of the foundation of the Divine Realm —her sins were even greater than those of the Evil Soul Master of the lower realms!

The dust has settled.

The Asura God, this ancient god-king who once held the power of judgment in the Divine Realm, lost all room for rebuttal in the face of irrefutable evidence of his crimes.

What awaits him is a fate almost identical to that of the former Sea God —severely injured, imprisoned, and under strict guard. Only after he passes on the Asura God according to the rules of the Divine Realm will his soul and spirit be completely annihilated, making him pay the ultimate price for his ambition and crimes.

This time, even the Life Goddess fell silent. She stood at a distance, her emerald green eyes losing their former brilliance, staring blankly at the Asura God, who was bound by the chains of destruction and whose aura was waning.

"Hahahaha... Hahahaha!!"

A maniacal, hoarse laugh, filled with endless resentment and twisted pleasure, shattered the suffocating silence.

It's Tang San.

He slumped beneath the cold, fortified walls, watching the Asura God's pathetic, utterly defeated end, witnessing the cold, distant gazes of the other gods, and the despairing silence of the Life Goddess... The resentment, bitterness, and pain accumulated over two lifetimes, along with the fear of impending death, all coalesced into this hysterical, maniacal laughter. He had succeeded; at least before his death, he had dragged that hypocritical God of Law Enforcement down to hell with him! It was worth it! It was enough!

However, this maniacal laughter eventually came to an end.

The God of Destruction lowered his cold gaze, as if looking at a filthy, foul-smelling insect.

He didn't even bother to say another word. The God of Destruction flicked his finger at the crazed figure below.

Sizzle--!

A bolt of Destruction Divine Lightning, not thick and terrifying, was condensed to the extreme. Like the most precise spear of death, it ignored spatial distance and instantly struck Tang San's head!

"Ugh--!!!!"

The maniacal laughter abruptly ceased, replaced by an indescribable, agonizing scream, as if the soul were being crushed and burned inch by inch! The purplish-black lightning did not merely affect the physical body; the law of destruction directly invaded every inch of his soul, aiming to completely erase him from existence!

The lightning raged, but only lasted for a few breaths.

When the chilling purplish-black light dissipated, only a charred object, barely retaining a human shape, remained, emitting wisps of smoke, devoid of any life or spiritual energy.

That unsettling God of Evil, and decadent aura finally dissipated completely.

But the God of Destruction did not look away. He frowned slightly, his divine sense scanning the area repeatedly like the finest sieve, not missing a single trace of energy residue.

The God of Destruction was on high alert regarding Tang San, who had a history of "rebirth" and had repeatedly pulled off spectacular feats in dire situations. He would not allow even the slightest possibility of his remnant soul escaping and "resurrecting."

"Call..."

Even at this moment, the God of Destruction, who was always deep and cold, as if he had everything under control, let out a barely perceptible, slight breath.

Those taut nerves seemed to relax slightly only after Tang San's existence was completely annihilated.

There's no way around it; this guy named Tang San's ability to cause trouble and "escape death" is simply too heaven-defying, to the point that even the gods find it unbelievable.

He was clearly doomed in the mortal realm, yet the Asura God managed to pull him back up; he was a prisoner, yet he almost used that bizarre Hidden Weapon to kill a God-King; he was on the verge of death, yet he revealed such a shocking secret, dragging another God-King down with him...

Even the God of Destruction, who was used to all sorts of storms, felt a chill and lingering fear after this series of actions.

Therefore, they must be completely dead, as completely as possible.

Looking at the charred remains, the last flicker of emotion in the God of Destruction's eyes faded away.

Chapter 356 Absurd Ways of Dying

Tang San's death seemed to have brought everything to a close.

Time flies.

During this time, the Asura God was imprisoned within a barrier personally set up by the God of Destruction, a barrier that could isolate all external forces.

The Asura God no longer expects Armor to become a god as he did at the beginning, but the current situation is no longer under his control.

One by one, heroes began to ascend to godhood.

The Asura God could occasionally sense the faint fluctuations of the new god's birth, and a thought once crossed his mind to use these new gods to stir up the situation, but it was immediately extinguished by the cold reality.

The Angel God Qian Renxue seemed to have become the most dedicated supervisor.

She seems to have transformed her dual hatred for the Sea God and the Asura God into a persistent desire to "restore order" to the Divine Realm.

The Asura God's last remaining attempts to exert a slight influence were nowhere to be found before her; they were often extinguished without mercy by a blazing, pure Angel Holy Light as soon as they began to emerge.

Finally, those two highly anticipated names, almost simultaneously, rose up in the Divine Realm with pillars of light propelling them to godhood.

Armor, the inheritor of the Asura God's killing and judgment divine nature, broke through the final barrier with unparalleled sharpness and an indestructible will.

Doria also successfully comprehended the rules of the ocean, broke through level 100, and entered the Divine Realm.

The birth of the two new gods also means that the final judgment and punishment of the Asura God and the Sea God can now be formally put on the agenda.

Compared to the Asura God's heinous crime that shook the very foundations of the Divine Realm, the Sea God's "problem" seemed... relatively "simple."

His conflict with Qian Renxue stemmed more from personal grudges regarding the Godhood Inheritance.

Although his actions were despicable, disgusting, and vile, at least he did not, like the Asura God, extend his reach to other god-kings, attempting to shake the core of the Divine Realm's rule and the balance of power.

Now, the Sea God is frantically searching for a way to survive. He places his last hope on the newly crowned Sea God, Doria.

He repeatedly pleaded and even tempted Doria, hoping to "join forces" with her to fight against the aggressive Qian Renxue, just to save his life.

The most troublesome and most heinous of crimes is undoubtedly the Asura God.

After a period of in-depth investigation and tracing, the truth behind the fall of the Godess of Kindness and Evil God has become basically clear.

The whole process was so absurd it was both laughable and absurd, yet it also revealed a cold reality.

After successfully breaking free from the constraints of their divine positions and departing with their divine artifacts, the "divine couple" indeed relapsed into their old habits.

The long divine life made them feel "bored", so they once again played their favorite "game" - sealing divine power and memory, and plunged into reincarnation in the lower world. They wanted to "experience" the ups and downs of life again as a mortal, euphemistically called "feeling the true meaning of love and looking for the first touch."

They were not unprepared.

Both of them possessed their respective divine artifacts, each with an emergency backup plan. If they encountered an insurmountable and life-threatening danger in the mortal realm, the artifacts would automatically activate, sending distress signals across time and space to the current Godess of Kindness and Evil God, and guiding them to their location.

They had a very clever plan: they could enjoy an "immersive" earthly experience while also having an ultimate safety net; if things went wrong, there would be a "successor" as free labor to clean up the mess and save them from disaster.

It allows one to experience the world's pleasures firsthand, or retreat peacefully back to normalcy, transferring the risks while keeping the enjoyment to oneself.

However, despite their meticulous planning, they failed to anticipate the "rebellious" feelings of their successor.
