"No need to complete the God Trial?"
Gu Wuchen tentatively inquired, explaining that he had to proceed step by step through the God Trial for the three Godhood and couldn't rush it.
More people who can be brought to the Divine Realm can also be included.
"Bullshit God Trial!"
The Asura God, with his fiery temper, blurted out, "By the time you complete the God Trial the Sea God and the Ice God, you'll probably be a level 100 god. If the Sea God leaves early, who am I supposed to turn to?"
Upon hearing this, Sea God immediately became displeased. "What do you mean? What's wrong with me leaving early? Did it bother you?"
"Of course, we'll go together, and no one should be left behind," the Asura God sneered.
Having been bound together for so many years, it's impossible for them to let the other go first.
"Now that you have three Godhood, you will be in charge of setting the rules of the Divine Realm. But don't go too far. There are still quite a few old guys in the Divine Realm, including Destruction and Life," the Asura God warned.
That God of Destruction didn't take a liking to any of the inheritors.
If the two of them were to leave now, it's uncertain whether Destruction would cause trouble.
Previously, they had planned to expand the Divine Realm.
With them keeping things under control, things are a bit better right now.
"Senior, rest assured, I am very careful. But are you sure that defeating that person from the Slaughter City is enough?"
The Asura God nodded. "That's right, just defeat him. That guy doesn't have much time left. He's been parasitized by the Nine-Headed Bat King of the Slaughter City for decades, and he's not the same person anymore. Defeat him, and if he doesn't give it to you, you can just approach him. In short, the Asura Demon Sword is yours."
Gu Wuchen's heart skipped a beat.
Of course he knew who that person was: Tang Chen, the former Haotian Douluo, who was also the original successor chosen by the God of Asura. He never expected that such a prodigy would end up like this.
"He was originally the one I had the highest hopes for." The Asura God's tone was unusually somber. "Back then, I thought he would soon complete the God Trial, but he went astray and was taken advantage of by the Nine-Headed Bat King. For so many years, he has lived in torment. If you kill him, it will be a way to free him. Killing him will be the only test for you to inherit the Asura God Position."
The Sea God smiled and looked at the Asura God:
"Your Asura Demon Sword is no ordinary weapon. Don't just give me the item without reminding me of its significance."
He then turned to Gu Wuchen and said solemnly, " The Asura Demon Sword is the number one killing artifact in the Divine Realm. It contains the killing energy of billions of living beings. When you come into contact with it, you must not be influenced by it. You must control it, not be controlled by it. You must not let the killing go to your head and lose your true self."
Gu Wuchen felt a chill run down his spine. He had heard of the backlash from divine artifacts; the more powerful the artifact, the more likely it was to devour the user's will.
"I understand." He nodded solemnly. "I will uphold my principles and will not let killing cloud my judgment."
"That's good." The Asura God nodded in satisfaction. "Once you've resolved this, I will personally transfer all the power of the Asura God Position to you, so you won't have to go through those tedious God Trial trials, saving you time."
The Sea God added, "We've already spoken with the Ice God. The power of the three Godhood will smoothly merge within you without any conflict. Once you arrive in the Divine Realm, the three of us can step down together and travel to the depths of the Divine Realm."
The Asura God laughed, "That's right, Gu Wuchen, just hurry up."
Gu Wuchen nodded solemnly. "Okay, I will deal with Tang Chen as soon as possible and complete the test."
The two figures simultaneously became transparent, eventually dissipating into the light.
The vast, white Divine Realm collapsed instantly, Gu Wuchen's consciousness plummeted downwards.
Gu Wuchen opened his eyes and let out a long breath.
The conversation was still echoing in his ears, leaving him somewhat dazed.
He looked up and froze instantly.
Bo Saixi wasn't alone in the room; Snow Empress and Ice Empress were also standing by the bed, looking at him with worried expressions.
He was startled. Why were Sister Xue and Sister Bing out?
Snow Empress immediately leaned forward and reached out to touch his forehead. " Little Wuchen, are you alright? Your breathing was terribly erratic just now, let your Sister Xue take a look."
Bo Saixi reacted quickly, grabbing Snow Empress's wrist. " Snow Empress, don't touch him, he just returned from the Divine Realm, his aura is still unstable."
Snow Empress forcefully pulled her hand back and glared at Bo Saixi: " Bo Saixi, you're meddling too much. What business is it of yours if I care about Little Wuchen?"
These words acted like a fuse, instantly igniting tensions between the two.
Bo Saixi raised an eyebrow, her tone tinged with displeasure:
"I'm his aunt, so of course I have to care about his affairs. But what are you doing here instead of staying in the Far North?"
"We're worried about Little Wuchen!" Snow Empress said, her neck stiff. "His soul fluctuations were so violent just now; he could have been in danger at any moment. You were right next to him, and you couldn't even sense that? How dare you say you care about him?"
"How could I not have noticed? I've been guarding this place the whole time!" Bo Saixi said coldly. "It's better than some people coming all the way here, only to cause trouble."
"Who are you calling a troublemaker?" A chill instantly emanated from Snow Empress. "You're just a playful Bo Saixi."
Gu Wuchen rubbed his forehead, feeling a throbbing pain in his temples.
He knew that nothing good could come of those two getting together.
He was too lazy to persuade them any further, turned to look at Ice Empress standing quietly to the side, and asked in a low voice:
" Sister Bing, why are you all out here?"
Ice Empress lowered his voice and explained:
"Your soul fluctuations were particularly strong just now; we could feel them even in our Sea of Consciousness. We were worried because you hadn't woken up for half an hour, so we came out together. But as soon as we came out, she pushed the door open and came in."
She paused, then continued:
"Don't worry, she doesn't know we're in your Sea of Consciousness. Just say we sensed something amiss with your soul in the Far North and used a secret technique to get here. She'll never guess the truth."
Gu Wuchen nodded. It turned out that they had been silently watching over him all along, even in the Sea of Consciousness, constantly worrying about his safety.
Upon hearing this, the Fire Dragon King's clicking sound immediately echoed within the Sea of Consciousness:
"Wow, Ice Empress, you're quick-witted. I thought you were going to just tell the truth."
The Ice Dragon King said calmly, "That's for the best. If Bo Saixi knew they'd been staying in the Wuchen Sea of Consciousness, who knows what kind of commotion they'd cause."
Outside, Bo Saixi and Snow Empress were still locked in a fierce battle, neither willing to give in.
Gu Wuchen sighed helplessly and said loudly:
"Alright! Stop arguing!"
The two stopped at the same time, turned to look at him, and both had a defiant look on their faces.
Gu Wuchen rubbed his temples and said:
" Sister Bing is right. They sensed the abnormality in my soul and rushed over from the Far North. They were all worried about me, so there's nothing to argue about."
Bo Saixi pursed his lips and said nothing more.
Snow Empress snorted and turned her head away.
Seeing the two of them like this, Gu Wuchen felt both annoyed and amused.
