After Death, Serve Me

This sight instantly attracted the attention of many people.

"This is... a deity..."

"Someone has become a god."

"The legend from ten thousand years ago is true."

"..."

What happened here quickly spread like a plague.

Seeing this scene, Ning Que couldn't help but feel a little envious.

He and Guyi were destined not to be able to ascend directly to the Divine Realm like Huo Yuhao and the others.

Even if they are lucky enough to become gods, even if they manage to reach the very end, it must be done quietly.

After all, if they don't reach the Divine Realm and don't have enough powerful backers and connections, they might be intercepted and killed by Tang San beforehand.

"Senior brother, these gods actually have senior brothers?"

"And who are their teachers?"

"And who is his senior brother?"

Many people are focused on the scene of the deity's ascension itself, but some are more curious about the words spoken by the deity before ascension, and who he was referring to.

Clearly, these people have little to do with the specifics of the situation.

But Kong Deming, who was still with Ning Que at that moment, immediately understood who Huo Yuhao meant by "senior brother".

Ning Que!

Both Huo Yuhao and Ning Que were taught by the same teacher, yet Huo Yuhao has already become a god. What about Ning Que?

Does he possess the potential to become a god?

In that instant, Kong Deming thought of many, many things.

He quickly came to a conclusion.

Although we don't know exactly what Ning Que wants to do, it's certain that his goal is also to become a god.

"Young friend Ning Que, I have a question I hope you can answer for me."

"I know this action is presumptuous, but I really want to know."

"As a condition for resolving your doubts, whatever you say, as long as it's within my power and doesn't go against my conscience, I will certainly do it."

Kong Deming knew that Ning Que must possess some secrets about the gods.

If he misses this opportunity, he'll never have another chance like it in his life.

He knew very well that with his current level of cultivation, becoming a god was clearly impossible.

Therefore, I don't ask for anything.

He simply wanted to know what God really was.

"Tell me about it?"

Ning Que was also very curious.

Moreover, many things that are about to happen will really require the cooperation of the Sun Moon Empire.

It's important to understand that the Sun Moon Empire was already extremely wealthy, and after plundering the Douluo Three Kingdoms, its resources reached an astonishing level.

Building facilities like Spirit Pagoda requires a large amount of manpower, material resources, and financial resources.

It would be very difficult for them, relying solely on their Nine Treasures Glazed Sect, to achieve this.

Or rather, it took far too long.

That is why he made this decision and cooperated with the Sun Moon Empire.

What is God?

How can one become a god?

The question Kong Deming asked was not only something he wanted to know, but also something that many Titled Douluo on this continent wanted to know.

They knew far too little about the gods.

Too mysterious, too far away.

"Gods, you can think of them as slightly more powerful Soul Master."

"They're just at different levels of life; they're like Martial Soul, undergoing a fundamental transformation and evolution."

"As for how to become a god, how so?"

"It depends on the era."

"In the more distant, primitive times, as long as the contribution made was great enough, as long as there were enough believers, as long as you reached the limits of this world, and as long as you lived long enough, there was a chance to rely on the power of faith to transform your life, condense a divine personality, and thus become a god."

"Ten thousand years ago, as long as you had enough talent, as long as you could find the place where the gods inherited their legacy, and as long as you could pass the divine test, and as long as you had connections at the god level, you could still become a god."

"But in this day and age, the path to godhood is severed... well, not exactly severed, but rather blocked by a deity; there is no hope of becoming a god."

As Ning Que said this, a mocking smile unconsciously appeared on his face, as if he had thought of something.

Upon hearing Ning Que's words, Kong Deming was taken aback, and then fell into deep thought.

How could someone who can be called the father of Soul Tool, someone who can research and create a natal Soul Tool and manufacture a level 10 Soul Tool in this era, be a simple being?

Often, he simply didn't want to waste his time and energy on these scheming and backstabbing matters.

Instead of wasting time on this, wouldn't it be better to study more about Soul Tool?

Now, having paid attention to this matter and heard Ning Que's words, he keenly discerned some things from them.

"You mean, ever since the Sea God ascended to godhood ten thousand years ago, the path to godhood in our world has been blocked."

Kong Deming pondered for a long time before arriving at this very bold conclusion.

After saying it out loud, even he himself felt that it was a bit too outrageous.

Who knows the truth?

Ning Que did not inform Kong Deming of this.

To be honest, Tang San did indeed block the opportunity to become a god in the Douluo Plane, but even without his blocking, becoming a god under these conditions and circumstances would not be a simple matter.

Becoming a god is difficult because, on the one hand, many people do not know how, and on the other hand, the power of faith is limited.

After ascending to the Divine Realm, those deities still possess the power of faith and will not tolerate others seizing it, which is why becoming a god has led to this situation.

Furthermore, Tang San's isolation and monopolization made this opportunity even more remote.

"Thank you for informing me, young friend. May I ask what you would like me to do?"

Having obtained the answer he sought, Kong Deming did not delve any further; these matters were too distant from his life.

As for what Ning Que really wanted to do, and what his purpose was, Kong Deming would no longer ask.

The reason is simple: they are not on the same level.

"It's simple, you'll be at my service after you die."

Ning Que looked at Kong Deming and spoke with a smile.

This person is a true talent. If it weren't for the conflict between his Twin Martial Souls, his cultivation level could have been even higher, and he might even have been able to forge an 11th-level Soul Tool in the future.

Therefore, he wanted the other person to serve him like a beast of burden after death.

Just like the Jing Hongchen.

Besides Kong Deming, Ning Que has also reserved Jing Hongchen's grandson and granddaughter for him—to transform them into undead creatures when they are about to die, so that they can live in another form.

This is the result of Jing Hongchen's hard work in crafting Soul Tool over the years.

Thus, another Kong Deming was added to the list.

"To serve you after death?"

Upon hearing this, Kong Deming wondered for a moment if he had misheard.

What an outrageous statement!

How can someone serve others after they've died?

Could this person be an Evil Soul Master?
