Douluo Continent does not belong to an independent plane.
Together with other worlds, it forms a single, integrated whole.
Above it lies a path of ascension known as the God Realm, where numerous deities reside.
They secretly promote their respective faiths while strictly adhering to certain rules, such as never interfering with normal development.
Although occasionally, some gods secretly break these precepts, it is limited to the inheritance of godhood and is done quite obscurely.
Precisely because he understood this, once Lin Feng learned the timeline, he invaded with bold, sweeping strokes, not overly worried about facing sanctions.
The God Realm's reputation is, after all, guaranteed.
Before Tang San rose to prominence, no one dared to recklessly violate the rules.
Even at this very moment, as chaos erupted in the City of Slaughter, the Asura inheritance was triggered.
That formidable God King merely remained in the center of the God Realm, casually projecting a wisp of his soul.
"Asura, why have you suddenly gone quiet?"
Within the committee, the Goddess of Life offered a smile.
Destruction, Goodness, and Evil, the three other God Kings, also cast their gazes toward him.
Being distracted during a meeting did not suit his personality; could some unforeseen change have occurred?
"The inheritance I left in the lower realm has encountered some minor issues, nothing of great importance. Let us continue with the previous topic."
Asura God shook his head gently, his expression calm and unruffled, as if the trouble with his inheritance was entirely trivial.
"Haha, for us, this is a matter of the utmost importance; how can you say it is not a big deal?"
"The topics are always the same and have been discussed many times already. Why not tell us what is happening in the lower realm?"
Goodness and Evil, the two God Kings, possessed relatively lively personalities; not only were they keen on wandering the mortal world, but they also enjoyed gossip and idle chatter.
After all, having become deities with infinite lifespans, their daily lives were monotonous and dull. Compared to discussing meaningless topics, a new subject was clearly much more interesting.
"It is nothing. Years ago, I placed my inheritance on Douluo Continent, only to be outmaneuvered by Rakshasa; you have long known of this."
"Thinking of it as a trial, I couldn't be bothered to pay it much mind. Just a moment ago, that region connected with an alien plane, and I lost one of my inheritors."
"Fortunately, a new inheritor appeared shortly after, so I will let nature take its course. There is no need to intervene specifically; do not forget the rules we collectively established."
Asura God explained casually.
Though he spoke thus, he appeared somewhat distracted.
How could he be completely indifferent to the replacement of an inheritor? He simply did not want his colleagues to see through him.
While everyone was harmonious in other respects, the competition regarding this matter was quite intense; everyone wanted to shed their godhood as quickly as possible.
"Oh? Connected to an alien plane?"
"Which one? It wouldn't be the Five Elements Continent, would it?"
Evil and Goodness became instantly alert upon hearing this.
At this current point in time, the inheritors they had scouted were currently adventuring in another world.
If the two sides were to collide unexpectedly, there was no telling what kind of trouble might arise. If it affected the talents they were cultivating, that would be a nuisance.
"No, it is an unknown new plane. I have already investigated it and found no god-level entities; it should be an ordinary lower-level plane," Asura God continued to shake his head.
"Since it does not involve deities, there is indeed no need to interfere. Being able to integrate a few more new worlds is also beneficial to the development of the God Realm," the Goddess of Life smiled in agreement.
With that said, all five God Kings fell silent.
The meeting ended quickly, yet each harbored their own thoughts.
Even Goodness and Evil, who had already locked onto their inheritors and were currently cultivating them, would not mind having a few more candidates.
The collision of a new plane and its integration into the God Realm system meant a massive influx of new population and numerous talented individuals.
Perhaps... there was someone among them suitable for themselves?
Quietly, the five God Kings cast their gazes downward.
Interference was one thing, but watching was still permissible. Their divine senses blanketed Douluo Continent.
They swept past Martial Soul Hall, swept past the Heaven Dou and Star Luo Empires, and finally, converged deep within the City of Slaughter.
At this moment, Lin Feng had already completed his "descent."
But it was not his true body, merely a powerful shockwave.
After Samigina and Marbas unlocked the trump cards they carried, the two planes connected.
Tearing through the void, they only revealed a tiny gap, which, in physical terms, was insufficient for Lin Feng to cross over.
There was no help for it...
The principle of the teleportation array is the equivalent exchange of energy forms.
Every time a person passes through, it consumes spiritual power; the stronger the person, the greater the price paid.
The twenty Demon Gods of the Demon God Vanguard Army invading and attacking the City of Slaughter had already burned Electrolux out.
For a demigod like Lin Feng, or rather, an existence that has effectively surpassed the demigod realm, even large-scale teleportation arrays cannot support his transit.
This point has been tested many times over the past few hundred years.
Therefore, when formulating his trump card, he opted for a different, special method.
It was similar to the original work, specifically the segment in the Dream Paradise instance where he tore through the void to save A'Bao.
Through the gap he tore open, Lin Feng unleashed [The One of Annihilation], which shot forward with his intent locked onto the reviving Tang Chen.
With just a single strike, it precisely pierced through the center of the target's brow; the fellow who had been bloodthirsty and berserk a second ago was instantly erased on a soul level.
Had he been in his prime, success might not have come so easily, but the current Tang Chen could be said to be weak to the extreme.
He might have been able to handle the Fourth Pillar and Fifth Pillar Demon Gods with ease, but wanting to survive against Lin Feng? That was absolutely impossible!
His sturdy body crashed down with a boom, smashing into the ruins.
The Asura God losing focus during the meeting corresponded exactly to this moment.
After Lin Feng killed Tang Chen, the rift connecting the two worlds did not immediately close.
This allowed him to keenly capture the mysterious scene of the five Great God Kings' divine souls appearing and secretly peering down.
While remaining calm on the surface, he raised his vigilance internally, observing the gods' reactions in turn to see if they would intervene.
The destruction of the order in the City of Slaughter should have attracted Asura, right? But it seems there is more than one aura; the other God Kings have come as well?
Judging by their posture, they don't seem to intend to interfere. Otherwise, given the strength of those individuals, unless they utilized the Ten Earths Nine Heavens God-Killing Array, I would be no match for them!
He waited silently, and the answer was self-evident.
If the Asura God were truly enraged, it would be impossible for things to be this calm.
Witnessing it with his own eyes thoroughly verified his initial hypothesis: the God Realm still had its bottom line.
No matter how thick his accumulation was, he hadn't poked through that "window paper" and still maintained the demigod realm.
According to the rules set by the five Great God Kings, this still fell under the category of lower-plane disputes, in which the high and mighty gods should not participate.
In reality, Lin Feng had made several preparations.
For instance, he had Long Xingyu obtain the Slaughter God's Domain in advance.
This way, even if things took a turn for the worse, killing Tang Chen or destroying the inheritance would at least leave the Asura God with a successor, preventing a complete falling out.
Secondly, taking a step back, should the other party intervene, the Ten Earths Nine Heavens God-Killing Array, capable of sealing the Heavenly Scourge, would be enough to grant Lin Feng the power to resist.
Fortunately, however, the current situation was the ideal state.
The simultaneous attention of multiple God Kings actually created a mutual check and balance.
Not every God King was as shameless as Tang San; this situation was simply perfect.
"Since you aren't intervening, things will be easy to handle. Next... let the army descend upon Douluo!"
