Destruction God King Lends a Hand, Second Martial Soul, Destruction Angel

The Destruction God King coughed lightly twice.

"I was just curious. Besides, looking won't cost me a piece of flesh."

"What is your name?" the Destruction God King asked.

"Su Mu."

The Destruction God King nodded after hearing that, already forming a plan.

"Should I call you Xiao Mu?"

The Life Goddess said with a smile.

"Whatever you prefer, Senior."

Su Mu had no objections.

You give me a divine position, I call you Senior, and you call me Xiao Mu. Perfectly reasonable.

But what did the Destruction God King mean?

Why did his gaze seem so strange? It probably wasn't an illusion.

The more the Life Goddess looked at Su Mu, the more satisfied she became. Bringing down the divine trial early had indeed been the best choice.

Xiao Zi's divine position had yet to find a suitable successor. If they found one, Xiao Zi could leave the Divine Realm sooner as well.

"Xiao Lu, shall we discuss something?"

The Destruction God King suddenly spoke.

"Discuss what?"

The Life Goddess looked puzzled.

The Destruction God King chuckled. "Naturally, giving my divine position to Xiao Mu. He is someone you chose, so he certainly won't be lacking."

"Ah?"

The Destruction God King's suggestion stunned both the Life Goddess and Su Mu.

Who could have expected the Destruction God King to suddenly say something like that?

"Think about it. Xiao Mu's talent is so good. The two of us can give him divine trials together."

The Destruction God King wanted to take the easy route. If he had to search for an heir himself, who knew how many years it would take?

He did not think much of any of the people on the continent.

"But Xiao Mu has no aura of destruction. He only possesses the healing ability of the Prayer Angel."

The Life Goddess agreed with the Destruction God King's idea, but Su Mu did not possess any other martial soul representing the powers of destruction and ruin.

She did not even know what to test him on if they bestowed a divine trial.

"That is not a problem."

The Destruction God King stepped forward, wrapped an arm around Su Mu's shoulders, and raised his brows with a smile. "Xiao Mu, say the word. Do you want a divine position? As long as you ask, I will satisfy you immediately."

The Life Goddess held her forehead and sighed. What was this? Xiao Zi, you had changed. You were not like this before.

"Senior Destruction, but I do not have a martial soul with the power of destruction."

Su Mu wanted it badly, but he only had an auxiliary martial soul and lacked even the slightest offensive power.

"That is a small matter. There is another force within your body. I only need to inject my power of destruction into you, and I can help you create a second martial soul."

The Destruction God King assured him confidently.

As long as you want it, there is nothing I, Destruction, cannot provide.

As a man who wanted to leave the Divine Realm with his wife,

this was something he could accomplish with ease.

"I am willing."

Su Mu answered without hesitation.

"Very good. Xiao Mu, I will now inject a portion of my power into your body."

The Destruction God King released Su Mu's shoulder, stepped back several paces, and opened his right palm. A purple-black sphere of energy appeared in his palm, containing a portion of the power of destruction. Just one glance at it made one's heart tremble.

"Xiao Mu, are you ready?"

Su Mu took a deep breath. "I am ready."

"Very well. Prepare to receive my power!"

With a wave of his hand, the Destruction God King sent the energy sphere flying toward Su Mu. After it merged into Su Mu's body,

Su Mu's body immediately reacted. Vast power of destruction burst forth without restraint, intertwining and fusing with the other force within him.

Su Mu steadied his breathing and focused his mind to remain stable.

"Xiao Zi, there will not be a problem with your power, right?"

"Do not ruin my successor."

The Life Goddess knew the Destruction God King's power well.

"Do not worry. Would I not know? Xiao Mu's body is especially stable, and there really is a unique fragrance about him. I never smelled it on those two fellows, Asura and Evil."

The Destruction God King sniffed again, making sure he had not mistaken it.

The Life Goddess also took a sniff. There truly was a fragrance.

After exchanging their impressions, they confirmed that the scents they smelled were different.

For example, Destruction smelled roses, while Life smelled osmanthus.

"What a peculiar constitution. There is actually something like this."

The Destruction God King could not help but remark.

The expression on Su Mu's face gradually shifted from pain to calm.

A little while later, Su Mu's body began to show another reaction.

"It is coming, it is coming."

The Destruction God King was a little excited. This was a martial soul nurtured by his own power.

In an instant, a massive phantom several zhang tall rose behind Su Mu.

It was an angel clad in magnificent dark-purple armor, covered in cracked violet holy markings. It seemed to have just fallen from heaven, yet also appeared to be a forced fusion of destruction and holiness.

It had three pairs of black wings, every feather as sharp as obsidian. When the wings spread, they blotted out the sky.

The Destruction Angel's face was cold and indifferent, with one golden eye and one black eye.

Its left eye shone with brilliant gold, like a god surveying the mortal realm.

Its right eye was abyssal black, and within its pupil seemed to lie visions of stars shattering and the world reaching its end.

The Destruction Angel held a massive dark-golden holy sword, its blade covered in dark-red world-ending patterns.

"Destruction, judgment, annihilation, termination."

The Destruction God King sensed the Destruction Angel's core.

With everything settled, Su Mu opened his eyes and looked at the Destruction Angel behind him. Its attributes carried the aura of destruction, and it had been formed from the fusion of the Destruction God King's power and the power within his own body.

"Xiao Mu, are you satisfied?"

The Destruction God King smiled, raising his brows.

"I am satisfied. I have a second martial soul too."

Su Mu was certainly extremely satisfied. At last, he would no longer be a soul master with only one martial soul, nor would he be purely an auxiliary-type soul master.

"Next, it is time for me to bestow a divine trial."

Without another word, the Destruction God King launched a ball of light that entered Su Mu's body.

Su Mu's body shuddered. At that moment, he possessed both the Life and Destruction divine trials.

Suddenly, the Destruction God King's first trial emerged in his mind.

[Destruction First Trial: Complete the Soul Master Tournament and claim the championship]

"You know the first trial now, right? For you, it will be easy."

"Although you cannot currently attach soul rings to the Destruction Angel, you can use its power of destruction and the Destruction Holy Sword to aid you in battle."

"You no longer need to be a soul master who can only provide support."

The Destruction God King understood Su Mu's current feelings. He was unwilling to remain merely an auxiliary soul master.

Borrowing the power of the Destruction Holy Sword would be more than enough. Besides, once he passed a small half of the divine trials, a divine artifact that belonged to him would be waiting.

There was no need to worry about lacking combat power.

"Thank you, Senior Destruction."

Su Mu said gratefully.

"You are welcome. This is what you deserve."

The Destruction God King said with a smile.

At this moment, the Life Goddess reminded him, "It is about time, and judging by the current time, it seems to already be the next day. I should send you back."

"I will trouble you, Senior Life."

Su Mu prepared himself.

As the Life Goddess activated her power, Su Mu's vision went black. When he opened his eyes again, he found that he had returned to his room, and someone was pounding frantically on the door.
