Soul Shattering Douluo: Black Hole Martial Soul, Inheriting the God of Destruction at the Start - Part 38
"You blockhead, since when did you get so mushy?"
With that, she gave him a coquettish look, then continued explaining, "Actually, you're overthinking it. I want to pass on my God Position for two reasons. First, the little guy's situation is just right for it. Second, it's because of Asura God!"
"Asura God? What does he have to do with this?"
Hearing the Goddess of Life bring up Asura God, the Destruction God King was thoroughly confused.
Did passing on her God Position require his approval now?
"Blockhead, have you forgotten that the little guy once snatched the resources Asura had been cultivating for a successor?"
At the Goddess of Life's reminder, the Destruction God King immediately thought of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
"So what if he took them? Besides, Asura was in the wrong in the first place. The little guy only took those things by accident. But what does that have to do with you passing on your God Position?"
At that, the Goddess of Life rolled her eyes.
"What do you think? Asura's threat isn't frightening to the two of us. But don't forget, that little guy is all on his own. Even if he inherits your God Position and gets the Scepter of Destruction, it's still unclear whether he can beat Asura! So, to make sure your legacy survives, I have no choice but to pass the Life God Position on to him too."
Hearing this, the Destruction God King finally understood her predicament.
"Life, you're too good to me!"
Seeing that the Goddess of Life was willing to sacrifice so much for him, the Destruction God King was filled with gratitude and guilt.
"Silly, you're my man. If I don't help you, who will?"
The Goddess of Life gently stroked the Destruction God King's face and spoke tenderly.
"Mm. Since that's the case, let's pass both God Positions on to the little guy. Once he becomes a god, we can finally enjoy some time alone together!"
"Good! But first, we should help the little guy awaken his Second Martial Soul."
"Right, right. Let's awaken his Second Martial Soul first."
As the two spoke, Yang Ziyuan was already being tormented by the two forces inside him, reduced to a twitching mess.
"Ziyuan, what's wrong? Don't scare your grandpa!"
Seeing this, Yang Wuhui hurried over and helped Yang Ziyuan, who was lying on the ground and convulsing, sit up. He asked anxiously.
"I..."
Yang Ziyuan opened his mouth, wanting to say something.
But he found he didn't even have the strength to speak.
At that moment, beads of sweat covered Yang Ziyuan's forehead, and his skin was gradually turning red.
"Damn it, what's going on? Am I going to be tortured to death by these two forces?"
Feeling the two completely different forces inside him constantly battering his body,
Yang Ziyuan knew that if he didn't find a solution soon, he would definitely explode and die!
Once he'd calmed down, he decided to force the Life Power out of his body.
After all, he was following the path of the Destruction God King. The Life attribute didn't seem to suit him at all.
Just as he was about to give up on the Life Power, the Destruction God King's voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
"Little guy, don't worry. We'll take it from here!"
As soon as the words fell, the two forces raging inside him instantly calmed down.
Next, the Destruction Power inside him gradually converged toward the Black Hole Martial Soul in his right hand, while the Life Power was drawn by a gentle force and slowly gathered in his left hand.
Looking at the orb of light in his left hand, Yang Ziyuan was puzzled when the Destruction God King's voice sounded again.
"Little guy, congratulations on completing the Third Trial of the Nine Trials of Destruction. Rewards: God-level Spirit Bone—left leg bone, one God-Bestowed Spirit Ring, Destruction God Affinity increased by twenty percent."
"Nine Trials of Destruction, Fourth Trial! Destroy Slaughter City within five years and kill every Evil Soul Master inside. Rewards: God-level Spirit Bone—right leg bone, one God-Bestowed Spirit Ring, Destruction God Affinity increased by thirty percent!"
At this, Yang Ziyuan furrowed his brow.
His trial this time was to destroy Slaughter City? And kill every Evil Soul Master there?
Wasn't Slaughter City the place where Asura God's successor was cultivated? The Destruction God King and Asura God were both God Kings and enforcers of the Divine Realm.
Wouldn't doing this really anger Asura God?
Or had the two of them already fallen out?
Wait, in the original story, when Little Scumbag inherited Asura God's position, the Destruction God King never came out to stop him, did he?
Could this be the butterfly effect caused by his actions?
Although he didn't understand why he had to do this, he knew that once he completed this God Trial, he would probably make an enemy of Asura God for good.
But he wasn't afraid!
They were both God King-level powerhouses. He refused to believe that Destruction Power would necessarily lose to Asura Power!
Just then, a gentle woman's voice echoed in his mind.
"Nine Trials of Life, First Trial! Awaken the Martial Soul in your left hand within three years. Rewards: Soul Power increased by three levels, one God-Bestowed Spirit Ring, Life God Affinity increased by five percent."
Hearing this, Yang Ziyuan was stunned.
The Goddess of Life's legacy? She was going to pass her God Position on to him?
But then again, that made sense. The Destruction God King and the Goddess of Life were husband and wife. Perhaps the two of them had already discussed it.
The Divine Realm.
"Life, why didn't you just awaken the little guy's Second Martial Soul for him?"
Seeing that the Goddess of Life hadn't directly awakened Yang Ziyuan's Second Martial Soul, the Destruction God King was rather confused.
Although the Life Power inside Yang Ziyuan wasn't enough to awaken his Second Martial Soul, she could have helped him with her Life Divine Power.
That way, Yang Ziyuan could awaken it quickly without wasting time.
After all, the God Trial he had just set wasn't simple and would take a lot of time to complete!
If the Goddess of Life did things this way, Yang Ziyuan wouldn't have enough time.
"What do you know? Do you realize that if I used my divine power to help him awaken his Martial Soul, it would be affected by my power? Then his Martial Soul would become either the Scepter of Life or the Ancient Tree of Life! That would give me too much influence over him. That's why I'm letting him awaken it on his own."
"That way, he can decide for himself what shape his Martial Soul takes. After all, what suits you best is best!"
Hearing the Destruction God King's doubts, the Goddess of Life explained irritably.
"So that's why? Looks like I misjudged you."
"Enough, enough. What about you? Why are you making the little guy provoke Asura? You know his legacy is in Slaughter City. Aren't you just pushing the little guy into a pit of fire?"
Hearing the Goddess of Life's complaint, the Destruction God King immediately grinned. "Heh, well... It's to make things difficult for Asura, of course! He's always keeping an eye on the two of us. Once the little guy takes over his home, let's see if he can stay so calm! Besides, the little guy will have to face him sooner or later. With us here, Asura still has to hold back, and the little guy can get some training in too."
After all, he knew there was also a Limit Douluo in Slaughter City.
With Yang Ziyuan's strength as it was now, he was still a little short of being able to take that person down.
"Fine. Since you've already made up your mind, I won't say anything more."
After that, the two began repairing the Scepter of Destruction again.
"Ziyuan, are you all right?"
Seeing that Yang Ziyuan had recovered, Yang Wuhui asked carefully.
"Grandpa, I'm fine. I'm sorry I worried you just now."
"As long as you're fine! If anything had happened to you, your grandpa would have become the Breaking Clan's greatest sinner!"
After all, Yang Ziyuan's fate was tied to the Breaking Clan's prosperity. If anything had gone wrong with him while he was in Yang Wuhui's care, even ten lives wouldn't have been enough to pay for it.
"Grandpa, don't worry. I'll be fine. My inherited Godly Mansion has already taken care of what happened just now. I'm about to absorb the Spirit Ring and Spirit Bone awarded for the Third Trial. Please keep watch for me!"
"No problem. Go ahead and absorb them. If Tang Hao comes back, even if I can't beat him, I won't let him disturb you."
Seeing Yang Wuhui's confident expression, Yang Ziyuan nodded.
Then he began absorbing the God-Bestowed Spirit Ring and God-level Spirit Bone.
Thanks to his experience last time, the process went smoothly.
In less than half a day, he had absorbed both the Spirit Ring and the Spirit Bone.
His level rose to 65!
He wasn't satisfied, though.
That was because the Destruction God King had sealed this God-level Spirit Bone too, locking away most of its abilities and energy.
Otherwise, the energy contained in a God-level Spirit Bone would definitely have raised him to Titled Douluo!
