10,000 years ago, Douluo Continent.

Heaven Dou City, Tangmen Mansion, Meditation Room.

"Buzz—"

The Shura Excalibur hovering in the air shook violently.

Seeing this, Tang San understood what it meant.

With a wave of his hand, he held the Shura Divine Sword, and while switching his divine position to the state of the Shura God, he drew his divine consciousness to the Shura Divine Temple through the resonance of the Shura Divine Sword.

During this time, the Shura gods summoned themselves in this way.

After coming and going, although he has not yet ascended to the divine realm, he is already familiar with the Shura Temple. Tang San came to the cultivation room where the Shura God often met with him as usual.

Sure enough, the god Shura was waiting here.

"Lord Shura."

"Tang San, I said, now that you have accepted the Shura God position, you have become the next Shura God in the God Realm. You and I are in the same position, and we don't have to be so polite to see each other."

The god Shura waved his hand, his tone calm.

"Then the junior will call you senior."

Tang San arched his hand slightly, and said in a respectful tone, "I don't know why the seniors called Tang San here today?"

"The Divine Council has agreed to my replacement of gods. After a while, you will be ready to ascend to the Divine Realm, and I will leave the Divine Realm as soon as possible. Poseidon said the same thing to me."

"Yes."

Hearing this, Tang San's eyes flashed slightly.

"But—"

As soon as the conversation changed, the Shura God continued.

"Because according to the rules of divine succession, once a god descends to the divine realm for assessment, then the rest of the gods are not allowed to interfere during the assessment period. Therefore, a successor can only inherit one deity."

"And in the process of passing on the divine position to you, I used some abnormal inheritance methods to graft Tang Chen's assessment solution onto you, so that you became the god of the sea and the god of Shura at the same time."

"Strictly speaking, the way you inherited the dual gods of Shura and Seagod at the same time is not in accordance with the rules. The rules of the Divine Realm cannot be abolished, but the Nian Divine Throne has been completed and the inheritance cannot be changed."

"Therefore, after discussion and decision by the Divine Realm Committee, you need to complete an assessment assigned by the Divine Realm again before you can fly to the Divine Realm and legally inherit the position of the Shura God."

「……」

When Tang San heard this, his heart tightened.

The idea of taking over the throne of God was shattered in an instant.

After this period of time, he learned from the mouth of the Shura God that the God Realm divided the gods into five classes according to their strength and status: gods, third-level gods, second-level gods, first-level gods, and god kings.

Among them, the strongest status and strength is the God King.

And the Shura god throne he inherited is one of the five god kings.

With such a lofty identity and status, he naturally would not give up as soon as he said when he first came into contact with the inheritance of the gods. Now, even if he would rather not have the Seagod Throne, he doesn't want to lose the Shura Divine Throne.

"Don't be nervous."

"The purpose of the assessment is to maintain the rules."

The Shura God saw Tang San's careful thoughts, and said slowly, "Since you have inherited the priesthood of the Shura God, then the Divine Realm will not deprive you of your divine position. What's more, you're my chosen successor."

Hearing this, Tang San breathed a sigh of relief.

"Senior, what exactly is that requirement?"

"This assessment is very simple, you only need to plant this tree on the Douluo Continent before ascending to the God Realm."

When the words fell, I saw Shura God wave his hand.

The next moment, an extra green sapling appeared in the palm of his hand.

Although it looks young, it exudes vitality.

"It's ......"

"This is the tree of life. This is an evolution of a branch and leaf on the ancient tree of life, the goddess of life. As the name suggests, the tree is born with a strong affinity for the life force."

「……」

Hearing this, Tang San was slightly stunned.

Planting trees? Will the assessment task be so simple?

What's wrong with the tree of life?

Thinking of this, Tang San had doubts in his heart.

After pondering for a long time, he still couldn't help but ask, "Senior Shura God, does this Tree of Life have any special uses?"

"You guessed right."

The Shura God bowed slightly, and said in a calm tone, "The function of this Tree of Life is to absorb the life force on the Douluo Continent and transform it into the God Realm. It is used to fill the immortal qi of my divine realm."

"In this way, we will be able to offset the irregularities in the inheritance of the divine position, and smoothly ascend to the divine realm to complete the replacement of the divine position. This is the solution that the Divine Council has come up with."

「……」

When Tang San heard this, his expression was abrupt.

If that's the reason, it does make sense.

Tang San, who was about to ascend to the God Realm, didn't care what would happen to the Douluo Continent if it lost its life force. But in order to maintain a glorious image, he still put on a worried look.

"Shura's predecessors, I don't know ......"

"Will this move affect the Douluo Continent?"

"The life force is the foundation of the world's operation, and the sudden passage of some of it will certainly affect the stability of the Douluo Continent's space. As a result, the mainland's ability to bear it will be much lower than before. The destructive power of the soul master has been significantly increased......

As soon as he said this, Tang San immediately understood what it meant.

The specific performance is like the attack of the Title Douluo-level soul master now, which is likely to distort the space. And after being drained of life force, it may be possible to do it with a soul saint-level attack.

"So—"

"How do you choose?"

As he spoke, the Shura God looked at Tang San playfully.

"This ......"

Hearing this, Tang San's face was embarrassed.

Although he had already made a choice, he still deliberately put on a posture of struggle and hesitation in front of the Shura God. was silent for a while, so after a helpless sigh, he began to whitewash his choice to inherit the throne.

"As a member of the Douluo Continent, Tang San shouldn't have affected the spatial stability of the continent for his own selfish desires."

"But the lives of the elderly cannot be violated. It was my grandfather's last wish to inherit the throne of the god of Shura, and in order to fulfill my grandfather's last wish, I must sit firmly on the throne of the god of Shura."

"Of course, I will try my best to make up for the mainland in the future."

「……」

And so—

Under a sincere speech, Tang San plucked himself cleanly: showing that he did not covet the Shura Divine Throne, but did it to fulfill his great-ancestor's wish.

"That's a good point."

Hearing this, the Shura God nodded with satisfaction and added.

"Although the passage of life force has affected the stability of the continent, our God Realm has also provided protection from the Douluo Continent and provided a channel for those ordinary soul masters to ascend."

"In this way, the two don't owe each other."

Tang San nodded and agreed, "What the senior said is right."

Looking at the seedling of the ancient tree of life, his eyes were extremely hot: it was like looking at his own Shura god position.

"But ......"

At this moment, the Shura God suddenly changed his words, "Although you inherited my Shura God throne and became the new God King of the God Realm. But whether or not you completely sit on the throne of the god king depends on your own ability."

「……」

Tang San was slightly stunned when he heard this.

But soon, he heard the sound of the Shura god.

"Tang was originally an ordinary soul master in the Douluo Continent, and fortunately, thanks to the favor of the predecessors of the Shura God and the predecessor of the Sea God, he was able to inherit your position as the God King of Shura and ascend to the God Realm."

"It doesn't matter what my status is in the divine realm, but after all, I am the successor you have chosen, so I am afraid that I will live up to the expectations of my predecessors and disgrace your name as the god of Shura."

After a pause, Tang San said respectfully.

"I can inherit the Shura Divine Throne, all thanks to the support of my predecessors. Please also mention one or two juniors, Tang San will definitely remember it. I will never fail you."

"Tang San, you are a smart person."

Hear this, God Shura

He smiled, and then said slowly, "I do have a way here to make you sit firmly on the throne of the God King."

"The source of the main power of the gods of the divine realm is the power of faith. Whether it is the Five Great God Kings or ordinary Divine Officials, if they want to improve their strength, they can't do without the blessing of the power of faith."

"And the power of faith comes from the offerings of beings in the netherworld. The more people who believe in you, the more power of faith you will receive, and the stronger you will become."

"The main reason why our five god kings are so high is because we have a large enough number of believers under our control."

"However, the aspirations of sentient beings are different, and the power of faith formed is also different, and it needs to be refined and purified, and the impurities can be removed before we can absorb it."

"And the filthy part of the power of faith is what we call the poison of faith. These poisons of faith are of no benefit to the Divine Realm, but they are difficult to get rid of and have plagued the Divine Realm for a long time."

"If we can clear this thing out of the divine realm......

Speaking of this, the Shura God paused and looked at Tang San.

"Senpai, what do you mean...... If I can get rid of the poison of faith, I'll be able to secure your place?" Tang San asked tentatively.

"Not bad."

The Shura God glanced at Tang San appreciatively, and then continued.

"So what should I do?"

"For the divine realm, which has countless subordinate planes, it is a world that provides life force. But the vessel to deal with the poison of faith is what the divine realm desperately needs right now."

"And the life force in the tree of life can, to a certain extent, counteract the poison of faith. With a little modification, it can theoretically become a container for the poison of faith."

"What do I need to do?"

Tang San took a deep breath and suppressed his excitement.

"I can teach you how to transform the Tree of Life."

"However, if you want it to be able to bear the poison of faith in the entire God Realm, you need to inject enough luck power into it, so that it can be directly connected to the fate of the Douluo Continent, then the Golden Ancient Tree will also be continuously blessed by the power of fate, so that it is expected to maintain stability."

As soon as the words changed, the god Shura said in a deep voice, "But the consequences of doing so will offend the god of destruction."

"Because the original strategy of the Tree of Life was designed by him. And transforming the Tree of Life provided by the God of Destruction is tantamount to robbing the merits that originally belonged to the God of Destruction. Therefore they will be at war with destruction."

"But after solving the poison of faith, your name as a god king will be recognized by everyone, and you will gain the same status as the veteran god kings such as destruction, and become the true five god kings of the god realm, and no one can shake your status."

「……」

Hearing this, Tang San fell silent for a while.

Seeing this, the god Shura did not rush to urge him to make a decision.

After all, this choice determines his future in the divine realm.

The meaning of the god Shura has been clearly expressed.

If Tang San planted the Tree of Life in the normal way, then after ascending to the God Realm, he would still be the Five Great God Kings in name. However, there is a huge gap between the right to speak in the God Realm and the destruction of such a veteran God King.

And affected by his status and strength, the allegiance of the gods under his command will also be affected. In the long run, he was afraid that he would never want to become a true god king.

Because Tang San had just arrived, the position of the God King was just an empty one for him, and if he wanted to sit in this position, he had to find a God King who could be attached to.

It's like the flames and Ji Dong in the original book.

Although they were nominally good and evil god kings, in fact, their status in the Divine Realm Committee could not be compared to Tang San and Destruction. There were no gods around them who were loyal to them.

To be precise, they still need to pat others on the back, so they can only choose to cling to Tang San's hands in order to secure their position.

And if it was the second one who chose to transform the Tree of Life, although this move would offend the God of Destruction, it would make Tang San a true God King who controlled the right to speak.

Although strength

It is not enough to be comparable to the elders of Destruction and other patriarchs, but in terms of the status of the God Realm, it is completely equal and no one can shake it. There is no need to look at anyone's face.

The first choice is to become a titular god-king.

Although he is relatively free, he has no right to speak in the divine realm, and he needs to be attached to other god kings, and he has to look at others in all aspects.

The second option: to become a god-king in the true sense of the word.

Although it will offend the god of destruction, it will have the right to speak, and the name of the god-king will get any of all the gods.

Answer, it is already obvious.

「……」

After being silent for a long time, Tang San suddenly spoke.

"Senior, if I choose to transform the Tree of Life, how can I be guaranteed that I will get the status that I deserve as a god-king?"

"Above the God King, there is also the constraint of the will of the God Realm. It is the supreme existence of the Divine Realm, and even our five great god kings must follow its rules."

"If you can solve the poison of faith in the divine realm, then you are bound to be favored by the will of the divine realm. At that time, your position as the executor of the plan will be unshakable."

"No matter how bad the relationship between the God of Destruction and you is, he can only admit your identity."

"Senior, please teach me the method of transformation."

"I don't want the Shura God to have no real name!"

Obviously, Tang San had already made his choice.

Since the end of the JYG battle, Tang San, the god of the sea and the god of Shura, who defeated the angel god and the Rakshasa god and destroyed the Wuhun Empire, has become the supreme existence of the belief of all the people in the Douluo Continent.

The status has surpassed the two empires.

It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift.

Tang San, who was used to being the boss in the Douluo Continent, now that he had the opportunity to inherit the status of the Shura God King, he would naturally not give up. Even if it is to offend the God of Destruction!

「……」

The Shura God was not surprised by Tang San's choice.

So, the Shura God handed over the Tree of Life to Tang San, and at the same time, the method of transformation was also taught to him.
