Douluo: Son of the Stars

Chapter 72 Nine Tests of Shura

In the Sea of ​​Spirit, Tong Rui is still evenly matched with the Nine-headed Bat King.

After all, with the increase of strength and head soul bone, Tong Rui's mental power has been getting stronger. At this time, Tong Rui's mental power has barely reached the spiritual realm. Ordinary Titled Douluo do not have such a strong mental power.

Just when the two were unable to do anything to the other and were in a stalemate, Tong Rui's fourth soul ring also exerted the power of its divine ring at this moment, and the power of destiny of this planet was slowly gathering towards Tong Rui!

Outside in the Star Forest, the Silver Dragon King sensed the change in fate and looked in the direction of the City of Slaughter.

Di Tian of the Lake of Life, the absorbed Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, Qian Daoliu of the Worship Hall, and Poseidon of the Sea God Island all seemed to sense something, but they only felt a brief moment of heart palpitations.

The one who felt it most clearly was Tang Chen who was beside Tong Rui. He could clearly feel that Tong Rui was surrounded by a mysterious aura.

The Shura Sword beside him emitted a blood-red light, flickering as if it also sensed something.

In the divine world, after Shura, who was standing next to the center, felt that his Shura Sword was activated, he immediately observed the situation in the lower world through the divine world center.

"Who is this child?" The Asura God looked at Tong Rui with his divine consciousness, and recognized that Tong Rui was one of the two outsiders in the past ten years.

He is in charge of the duties of judgment and is responsible for maintaining order in the divine realm and its subordinate planes. No foreign soul can escape his eyes.

When Tang San was born, he had a strong sense of destiny. It is not an exaggeration to say that he was the son of destiny. Although the other Tong Rui was also favored by fate, he was far inferior to Tang San.

Therefore, Shura had originally planned to pass on his throne to Tang San, and fate would subtly guide Tang San to the City of Slaughter on his behalf.

But now a different situation has arisen. Tong Rui, who originally had mediocre luck, has unexpectedly been favored by the stars. At this moment, this planet is mobilizing the power of destiny to help Tong Rui.

The call of the Shura Sword is the most obvious example. The Shura Sword favors Tong Rui's fate and believes that the person in front of it is the right successor.

"The Starry Sky God, who has gained faith, may really be the most suitable one to inherit my throne. Perhaps in the future, he will be the king of the gods in this world. Is this fate?"

The God Shura couldn't help but sigh for Tong Rui's fate. Because of the favor of fate, Tong Rui activated the Shura Sword. But perhaps it was precisely because of fate that Tong Rui was possessed by the Nine-headed Bat King, which enabled Tang Chen to escape and make the Shura Sword appear.

No one can tell whether it is fate that guides Tong Rui to inherit the Shura throne, or the Shura throne brings Tong Rui the fate of inheritance.

"Since it is destiny's guidance, then you are the next Shura God King!"

In the sea of ​​spirit, Tong Rui was still struggling with the blood-red nine-headed bat king. Tong Rui could no longer feel the situation in the outside world.

It was difficult for him to be sure whether the old bat, who was now equally powerful as him, had occupied his body like Tang Chen had.

While Tong Rui was still thinking about countermeasures, a blood-red sword suddenly fell from the sky in front of Tong Rui's eyes, and a solemn voice sounded at the same time.

"The first of the Nine Tests of Shura. Use the Shura Sword to kill the blood-red nine-headed bat king and pass the Hell Road. The time limit is one year. The reward for passing is that Shura God's affinity will increase by 5%!"

Tong Rui stood there in a daze, looking at the Shura Sword stuck in the ground in front of him, Tong Rui smiled.

He grasped the hilt of the Shura Sword with his right hand and pulled it hard, and suddenly a blood-red light spread out.

This was different from the blood light brought by the blood-red nine-headed bat king. Wherever the blood light of the Shura Sword affected, the evil blood color retreated. Looking at the panicked and struggling nine-headed bat king in the sky, Tong Rui suddenly jumped up, holding the Shura Sword with both hands. With the flow of mental power, a huge blood-red lightsaber swung by Tong Rui, splitting the nine-headed bat king in half with one sword.

In the sky, the blood color quickly faded away and turned into countless blood-red lights. The Shura Sword also left Tong Rui's hand at this time and fell on the small island in the center of the Spiritual Sea.

The surrounding blood-red light followed the sword and after merging into the sword, it spread out along with golden-red light. The originally broken sky and sea quickly recovered.

Tong Rui looked at everything in front of him with surprise and closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, Tong Rui saw a pitch-black ceiling.

He immediately stood up and looked at the Shura Sword that was flashing with blood-red light, and Tang Chen who was meditating and practicing.

Tong Rui began to think about the next countermeasures, such as how to solve Tang Chen's problem, how to pass the assessment of Hell Road, etc.

While Tong Rui was thinking, Tang Chen also woke up. Although the ice and fire poison was tricky, it was not very serious for Tang Chen, who was a demigod. It was just that the poison in his body was still consuming his vitality. Even a demigod might not be able to hold on for too long.

So he said, "Thank you, young man. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid my true nature would never have come to its senses. I would have lost myself in that evil blood and been controlled by evil thoughts."

Tong Rui also stopped thinking after hearing Tang Chen's words: "It's okay, senior. It's just a pity that I can't cure the poison in your body for the time being. If you want to cure the poison, you need to accompany me back to the sect to prepare the antidote."

Tang Chen said bitterly: "It doesn't matter. With the support of Shura God's power, I won't die for the time being. You should have accepted Shura's Nine Tests by now."

Tong Rui didn't expect Tang Chen to not care about the toxins in his body at all, but he still replied: "Yes, senior should be the previous person who inherited the Shura God Nine Tests. I wonder what your current situation is."

"Me? Hahahaha..." Tang Chen suddenly laughed out loud, but in his laughter, his expression was extremely painful, and two lines of blood and tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.

After calming down, Tang Chen said bitterly: "My name is Tang Chen, and I am now a worshiper of the Shura God. At the beginning, becoming a god was a promise I made to someone. Only after I fulfilled this promise, I have the right to look for her."

"However, in the following tests, I gradually lost myself. When facing the Blood Red Nine-Headed Bat King, my heart was already corroded by evil thoughts. The evil obsession was stripped from my body, and my true heart was completely blocked. My body thus became a parasite of the Blood Red Nine-Headed Bat King, and I became the King of Killing that you see."

"It was not until just now that the blood-red nine-headed bat king became greedy for you that he came out of my body, allowing me to be free. However, the appearance of the Shura Sword also means that I have completely failed the test. I am stuck at the eighth test, and now I have to serve the Shura God."

Tong Rui knew about Tang Chen's affairs. He admired Tang Chen as a man, but he could not understand what he did.

So he asked, "I wonder if you are going to look for the person you promised me, or are you going back to the sect?"

Tang Chen shook his head: "No, as a worshiper of Shura God, I have to help Shura God to eliminate the evil thoughts in this killing city. I must stay here to eliminate the sin and corruption."

"Excuse me, senior, how do I get to Hell Road?"

I will stop here today. Don't worry about the issue of suppressing the level. Except for some minor mistakes in the early stage, I basically don't suppress the level intentionally for the progress of the story.
