Divine Realm Meeting

"The Slaughter City," a dark and spacious room.

Tang Chen slowly opened his eyes, a look of confusion flashing in his deep pupils.

He seemed to have forgotten something.

Blinking, Tang Chen looked at the dark red room before him, and his memories gradually became clear. He realized with a look of realization. Yes, after he returned, he saw the divine incarnation of the Asura God, and under the other party's guidance, he extracted the evil aura of the Rakshasa God from his soul, as well as the memory of being ambushed during the Eighth Trial.

Oh, and there's also Wu Wudi, this mysterious and unpredictable being, who is also known by the divine sense avatar of the Asura God. They will probably investigate his true identity later.

Most importantly, his Eighth Trial the Asura God failed, so it can be invalidated!

Although the God Trial God Trial suspended and could not be continued, at least Tang Chen no longer needed to worry about failing the examination and possibly being wiped out by the Asura God.

Tang Chen is not afraid of death, but he is even more unwilling to fail to fulfill the promise he made before he dies!

On the other side, inside a cliffside cave at the end of Hell Road.

This is the temple of the Asura God, and also the place where those who have traversed the Hell Road receive the mark of the ' Deathgod Domain '.

The towering figure of the Asura God (divine manifestation) quietly appeared on the stone platform deep within the temple.

As the "Asura God Sword" was reinserted into the center of the stone platform, a blood-red light emanated from the Asura God (the embodiment of divine thought), spreading down from his right hand towards the "Asura God Sword," instantly turning even the stone platform beneath his feet crimson.

As time passed second by second, when the form of the divine thought avatar became somewhat illusory, a crack three feet long and half a finger wide suddenly appeared in the void about a meter away in front of it.

The crack grew at a visible speed, and in just a few breaths, it transformed into a gate of light that emitted a bloody glow and was nearly ten feet long and wide.

At the center of the portal, a flash of blood-red light appeared, and a scene, blurry at first, became clear in the eyes of the Asura God's divine avatar.

The scene depicted is located in an octagonal palace.

At this moment, five figures were sitting around a round table in the center of the palace.

At the head of the round table were two figures shrouded in black and white light. Their features were obscured, and only their human shapes could be vaguely discerned.

Although they were sitting upright at a round table, within the black and white light, their figures appeared to be hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of meters tall!

Sitting opposite them were a man and a woman. The man's face was not visible; he wore a large purple cloak that covered his head, and only two red lights could be vaguely seen flickering within the cloak.

Beside the man, a woman in a Life light green dress, with a gentle smile on her face that, while not exceptionally beautiful, always made people feel very close to her.

The four figures each possessed unique characteristics, making them difficult to ignore. However, the Asura God's divine sense avatar focused all its attention on the fifth figure.

It was an extremely large being, standing out from the crowd even when seated. It wore armor covered in dark red magical runes, surrounded by a dark red aura that obscured its features.

Asura God, your true form!

"Did you get the items?"

A clanging sound, like metal clashing, emanated from within the portal and echoed throughout the empty Asura God Temple.

"Got it~" The divine avatar flipped its right hand, and the evil aura of the Rakshasa God that it had previously extracted from Tang Chen's soul appeared in its hand.

Immediately afterwards, the left hand of the divine consciousness avatar opened, and a small, gray ball with a slight golden glow hovered in its palm. "This is Tang Chen's memory image."

As soon as he finished speaking, the divine avatar threw forward with both hands, simultaneously throwing the dark red, fish-like evil aura of the Rakshasa God and Tang Chen's memory image into the portal.

A ripple spread across the image on the portal, and red and gray orbs of light appeared above the stone table in the image, seemingly submerged in water.

The figure within the black orb of light reached out and pointed a finger at the red, fish-shaped orb of light. A mysterious aura flashed by, and the red fish exploded into a cloud of light mist. A sinister face appeared within the blood-red light mist, then quickly disappeared along with it.

"It is indeed the aura of Rakshasa." A strange yet somewhat sinister voice emanated from within the black light.

At the same time, a jade-white finger emerged from the white light cluster, touched the gray light cluster, and with a flick of its finger, dissolved it on the table.

The next second, a scene from the Asura God Temple appeared on the desktop.

From the moment Tang Chen grasped the hilt of the "Asura God Sword"Asura God Sword to the moment he drew it, just as he was beaming with joy, he was suddenly struck by a dark red light, which was clearly and plainly revealed.

Furthermore, due to the realism of the memory image, the aura of that dark red light was reproduced, exactly the same as the red swimming fish that had just dissipated!

"The situation is obvious~" A metallic voice rang out, and the Asura God coldly said, "The Rakshasa God violated the rules of the Divine Realm and maliciously disrupted the assessment of my chosen Godhood Inheritance. According to divine law, he should be executed—!!!"

The single word "execute" was filled with overwhelming murderous intent, echoing throughout the hall and lingering for Jiujiu.

As you can see, the Asura God's menacing words caused the woman in the green dress to furrow her brows slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but ultimately remained silent.

"Very well." A ripple appeared on the black light at the head of the table, and a sinister voice rang out. "Rakshasa may die."

"But!"

The tone shifted abruptly, a gaze sweeping over the Asura God, and a voice, laced with a wicked smile, rang out again. "You can't be the one to do it!"

Upon hearing this, the red light in the eyes of the Asura God flickered slightly as he stared intently at the figure within the black ball of light, remaining silent.

The figure within the black light, unfazed by the Asura God's gaze, turned to the figure clad in a purple cloak. "Destruction, as one of the three great enforcers of the Divine Realm, you are to capture Rakshasa and bring him back for final judgment!"

God of Destruction!

"Alright." A short, deep voice came from within the purple cloak, while the pair of pulsating crimson lights met those of the Asura God opposite.

In an instant, two chilling auras quietly rose between the round table, clashing with each other.

"Huh? What are these in the back?"

Just then, a gentle voice rang out, dispelling all the malevolent energy and drawing everyone's attention back to the ever-changing images on the table.

The woman in the green dress's voice not only eased the tense atmosphere between the Asura God and the God of Destruction, but also drew the attention of the figures within the black and white orbs of light.

"Is this... a descendant of Cecilia?" The figure within the white light looked at Qian Daoliu, who had three Qian Daoliu of golden wings on his back, in the scene. His voice was soft and ethereal, yet calming to the ear.

There are not many goddesses in the Divine Realm, and even fewer main gods who can cultivate to the level of First-Level God. Therefore, she immediately recognized that the aura emanating from Qian Daoliu was very similar to that of the God of Angels of Light, Cecilia.

Soon, the scene shifts to Wu Wudi's entrance and his Wu Wudi and decisive defeat of Tang Chen.

The five of them were not very concerned about the power that Wu Wudi had displayed. He had not even reached the Second-Level Deity; at most, he was only Third-Class Deity, above the level of a priest.

But the question is, why would a Third-Class Deity appear in the lower realm?

Are they newly born gods in this lower realm called Douluo Continent?

Or did some deity from the Divine Realm violate the prohibition and secretly descend to the mortal realm?

Or perhaps the other party came from another world and smuggled themselves into this star system under their jurisdiction?

The first two are fine, but if it's the third, then the matter involved is probably quite serious.

Thinking of this, the Asura God and the God of Destruction could no longer continue their confrontation. Their expressions, hidden by the red light and cloaks, both became solemn.

Tang Chen's memory images did not stop progressing despite the five big shots' contemplation, and soon, information about Wu Wudi was revealed one by one.

However, apart from a "Rakshasa Cult" and its doctrines whose authenticity is unknown, there are no other clues.

Because of the potential alien invasion that Wu Wudi might be involved in, even Ling Yi's Martial Soul and Soul Skill, which contained a little bit of the "Ultimate Life" attribute, failed to attract much attention from Asura God and others.

The images in the memory abruptly ended on the last few blank pages of the book titled "Tool Martial Soul: Forging Secrets".

The silence didn't last long. After a short while, the Asura God snapped out of his reverie, waved his hand, and emitted a red light towards the portal above the round table, closing it off.

Almost simultaneously, an even more concealed red light entered the portal and arrived at the temple on the other side of the portal, directly entering the divine consciousness body.

The moment the portal closed, the previously somewhat illusory avatar of the Asura God's divine sense suddenly solidified, becoming as real as a living person.

Taking in this scene, the figure within the black light glanced at the indifferent Asura God, who seemed unaffected, and said meaningfully, "Don't let this happen again."

The Asura God's expression remained unchanged; it was unclear whether he had taken it to heart or not.

"Alright~" The figure inside the white ball of light spoke up at the right moment, smoothing things over, "Evil, the divine sense that Asura left in the mortal realm this time was quite consumed because it extracted the evil aura that Rakshasa left in that mortal's soul and connected with the Divine Realm. Asura was just replenishing the consumption this time, so it doesn't count as violating the rules."

"So, what I meant was 'this is the last time,'" the figure inside the black orb glanced at the figure inside the white orb and said calmly.

Unfazed by the rebuff, the figure within the white light turned its gaze to the woman in the green dress. "Life, that little guy who appeared later seems quite nice. Would you like to consider him?"

The words were too ambiguous and suggestive, and the woman in the green dress blushed, as if Ling Yi's flawless face was reappearing before her eyes.

For some reason, seeing the woman in the green dress, the God of Destruction frowned slightly beneath his cloak, but ultimately said nothing.

There's no way around it. Don't be fooled by the fact that the person inside the white ball of light doesn't seem to care at all after being rebuked. She is the Kindness God King, one of the two great God King of the Divine Realm, while the one who just rebuked her was the Evil God King!

These two, in terms of status, are even above him, the Goddess of Life, and the Asura God!

"Your God King is too kind," the woman in the green dress, the Goddess of Life, said gently, shaking her head slightly. "His aura of ' Ultimate Life ' gives me a familiar feeling, somewhat like the consciousness of the 'Ancient Tree of Life ' that reincarnated a thousand days ago. Perhaps it's a blood relative of the 'Ancient Tree of Life ' consciousness after its reincarnation—"

One day in the Divine Realm is equivalent to one year in the mortal realm. The thousand days mentioned by the Goddess of Life clearly refer to a thousand days in the Divine Realm, which, when converted to the mortal realm, would be equivalent to a thousand years ago.

"If he can cultivate to the level of Titled Douluo on Douluo Star within six days, then we can let him give it a try," the Goddess of Life continued.

The Goddess of Life didn't say what the test was, but the other four present all knew perfectly well that it was the test for the Godhood Inheritance the God of Life's divine position.

The reason for the six-day timeframe is that Tang Chen's memory revealed that Ling Yi is currently thirty-four years old.

Six days in the Divine Realm are equivalent to six years on Douluo Star. The threshold condition set by the Goddess of Life is that Ling Yi must cultivate to the Titled Douluo realm before the age of forty.

If he cannot do that, then it is clear that Ling Yi's potential does not meet the standard for inheriting her God of Life.

"Alright, let's get back to the main topic."

The one inside the black orb, the Evil God King, tapped the round table in front of him, looked around at the four people beside him, and said in a deep voice, "Now, Destruction is responsible for capturing Rakshasa and bringing him here."

"Asura," the Evil God King said in an unyielding tone, his gaze meeting that of the Asura God, "You and Life are responsible for investigating the true identity of that Wu Wudi."

"First, investigate within the Divine Realm to see if anyone from the Divine Realm has sneaked down to the mortal realm."

"Once discovered, there will be no leniency! Bring them here to face judgment like the Rakshasa!"

After a pause, the Evil God King's voice deepened, and he continued, "Besides investigating the Divine Realm, the lower realms cannot be ignored either. Have your priests and the Godly Hunter set out together to search all those worlds that have the capacity to accommodate gods."

"Remember to Xiupu Ruosi to stop being so arrogant. Several main gods have already come to complain to us."

The Evil God King instructed the Asura God, "This time, the main task is to investigate any deities who have illegally crossed into the mortal realm or violated the rules. If they cause chaos in the mortal realm, I will extract their divine soul and stuff it into the ' Fire God Sword,' forging it for a thousand days!"

Asura God: "..."

Around the same time, in the Douluo Continent, in the Slaughter City ".

Inside the Asura God's Temple, the divine thoughts infused by the original body solidified the originally illusory form of the divine thoughts.

Previously, when extracting the evil aura of the Rakshasa God from Tang Chen's soul, the two had similar attributes. This meticulous operation was still quite a burden for him, as an incarnation of divine consciousness. As a result, when he emerged from Tang Chen's spiritual Sea of Consciousness, his consciousness was somewhat dazed.

"Now, let me handle all the headaches."

The divine avatar looked at the healed space before it, shook its head, and murmured to itself.

His mission was simply to wait for the 100-winner to emerge from the Hell Slaughter Arena of the ' Slaughter City,' and then, once that person had traversed the Hell Road, to be branded with the ' Deathgod Domain.'

This is how the Asura God selects his successors: casting a wide net and nurturing them one by one.

Once the chosen one possessing the ' Deathgod Domain ' cultivates to the Titled Douluo realm, his divine avatar will guide the other party back to the Asura God Temple under the ' Slaughter City ' to undergo God Trial.

Over the years, the divine avatar has cultivated many chosen ones, but unfortunately none of them have been qualified to successfully trigger the Nine Trials of the Asura God.

Apart from Tang Chen.

But now, Tang Chen is practically crippled.

Unless the other party understands the hints he left him before and successfully removes the evil aura of the Rakshasa God from his soul, he can only be the Slaughter King this "Slaughter City" for the rest of his life.

The Asura God (divine manifestation) looked up, his gaze seemingly breaking through layers of rock, arriving at the Hell Slaughter Arena in the center of the "Slaughter City".

"Blood Dragon King! Blood Dragon King! Blood Dragon King —!!!"

The deafening roars and venting sounds from all directions could not shake the ferocious, blood-red behemoth that was feasting in the arena in the slightest.

His gaze swept over the small figure beside the giant beast, and a strange light appeared in the eyes of the Asura God (his divine thought avatar): "Eighty-nine wins?"

"While not as good as Tang Chen's grandson, Tang Hao, he can still be considered as a backup option..."

As he spoke, the Asura God (an incarnation of divine thought) shook his head, turned around, and disappeared into the "Asura God Sword" stuck in the center of the stone platform at his feet.

Before disappearing, a faint murmur lingered in the empty temple:

"I feel like I've forgotten something. What is it?"
