Douluo Jueshi, world modulation mode

By the time the Sea God sensed the danger, it was too late. Although he had now reached the threshold of becoming a half-step God-King, the gap between him and a true God-King was immense. Moreover, he was facing an existence that even a God-King would feel immense pressure from. An irresistible force pierced through his body with overwhelming force, and the vast divine power of the ocean poured into the Sea God's body. The power that originally came from the same source now tolled the death knell for its former master.

The azure power of the sea god swirled around the golden trident of the sea god, which remained as sacred as the sea god remembered, symbolizing the supreme power of the ocean. In a trance, the scene of the sea god's ascension to the throne after a thousand years of gathering the sea's faith appeared before his eyes.

To others, the terrifying waterspout, carrying an aura that seemed poised to sweep across the heavens and earth, was adorned with specks of golden light that added a touch of holiness. It utterly destroyed the sea god's body. When the gods regained their senses, the imperceptible spatial fluctuations remained, and a rhomboid crystal, as blue as the ocean—the sea god's throne—appeared in An Zhen's hand. The water god and fire god, who had just stood beside the sea god, felt as if they had one foot in death, their faces showing relief at surviving, but this relief quickly turned into immense fear.

If the opponent could kill a sea god who was more powerful than them right in front of several god kings, then killing them would be no difficult task for them.

"What the hell is barking like that!" An Zhen snorted coldly, putting away the Sea God's throne, his nonchalant attitude as if he had just casually swatted a fly.

If we were to name the gods An Zhen dislikes most among the Douluo God Realm deities, the first would be Tang San and Xiao Wu, with whom he has direct grudges. Secondly, it wouldn't be the old Asura, who betrayed the old Dragon God. From a loyalty standpoint, he certainly deserves to be torn to pieces, but from a racial perspective, humans can't really say anything against him. In An Zhen's heart, his hatred for the Sea God is absolutely on par with that for Tang San.

It was more like the disgust one feels when facing a pile of excrement, because An Zhen used her omniscience to explore the database inside the Douluo plane and learned about those things from ten thousand years ago.

In order to protect his heir, he repeatedly interfered with the mortal world without authorization. This guy's crimes were relatively minor compared to others. This bastard actually interfered with the angel god's examination and brazenly broadcast other people's privacy on Poseidon Island.

Disgusting! How can a deity have absolutely no moral bottom line!

An Zhen's past enemies included many beautiful women. Some had even committed numerous heinous acts, such as Feng Ling, the vice leader of the Holy Spirit Cult. But no matter how much An Zhen loathed them, she only tormented them with pain, such as burning their souls with fire or subjecting them to a cycle of sensation between heaven and hell, rather than doing what General Yuwen did.

"An Zhen!" Old Shura roared in fury.

Killing his people right in front of him is an outrageous and lawless provocation!
A beam of blood-red divine light, carrying overwhelming killing intent, burst forth from the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​corpses. The terrifying divine power dragged a long, blood-red trail in the void, like a shooting star, and the sharp sword intent seemed to cleave the entire divine realm in two.

"He didn't say you were, did he?" Faced with an attack that even ordinary god-kings would avoid, those dark eyes merely gazed indifferently at the old Asura, like a god looking down on mortals. An Zhen raised her hand and gently pushed forward. In an instant, a vast and boundless power erupted, a momentum unimaginable to the gods. The terrifying power of the world seemed to propel the entire divine realm. The overwhelming killing blade was like ice facing the scorching sun, the streaks of blood being annihilated by the impact and ultimately transformed into a negligible wisp.

Just then, two thick beams of divine power, one black and one white, poured into it, symbolizing the intertwining of good and evil on both sides of the world, colliding with the vast power of the world. In an instant, the entire divine realm seemed to be divided into day and night, or perhaps intertwined to form a complete day and night, as if two worlds were colliding here. With a loud "BOOM—" that seemed to overturn the heavens and earth, an explosion that amazed all the gods suddenly occurred. The terrifying divine power fluctuations were like the spacetime storm that had once caused great damage to the divine realm, and the aftershocks that could easily severely injure a first-level god spread outwards.

As the aftershocks subsided, the gods were surprised to see the first two god-kings, one good and one evil, looking somewhat disheveled and extremely cautious. Although this minor incident—a slightly dirty hem of clothing—would not affect the outcome of the battle, it instantly revealed a stark difference in their abilities compared to Anzhen's calm and collected demeanor.

"This guy..." Old Shura adjusted his state at an extremely fast pace. In the present day, after the passing of the Dragon God, the only time he had shown such a solemn expression was when he was fighting the Golden Dragon King.

It is probably even more difficult to deal with than the Golden Dragon King who has ignited the flame of life.

"Universe." A voice rang out, like an absolute command issued by a god.

A strong, strange feeling enveloped the gods, and when they came to their senses, the scene before their eyes had changed from the familiar landscape of the divine realm to the dark, cold starry sky of the universe.

"Come on." An Zhen took a step forward, and a terrifying sense of oppression swept over them. Even the few first-level gods who were not targeted by him felt suffocated. The three first-generation god-kings felt as if they had returned to the moment when they faced the mad dragon god at the God Star Ceremony. However, this time they were not facing a mad and irrational being, and there was no tall figure by their side who could hold up the sky if it fell.

An Zhen chose his opponent, and his calm spiritual fluctuations were not arrogant, but rather an affirmation of the natural outcome. "Asuras, good and evil, do your best. If you can satisfy me, I may consider sparing your lives."

"Arrogant and conceited!" Though he uttered these words, the old Asura showed no sign of underestimating his opponent. In the dark and cold cosmic sky, a crimson divine light illuminated this space and shot forth, leaving a long crimson phantom trail. Its terrifying and sharp aura was like a blade cutting through thousands of troops, aiming to snatch the head of the enemy general.

“Weak.” Without any fancy moves, An Zhen raised his hand and threw a punch, the power of the world pouring into it. The laws of the world evolved over all things. At that moment, the old Asura felt as if he had seen all the laws he had ever seen in his life. Moreover, this power was fused together in a peculiar way, as if it were perfectly natural, carrying an overwhelming force. The invincible Asura sword energy was broken here. For the first time, it seemed as if it had encountered an indestructible and insurmountable barrier.

Old Asura felt as if he had been struck head-on by an incomprehensible, terrifying being at an incredible speed. His incomparably powerful divine body was nearly torn to pieces by this force, his internal organs shattered, and crimson blood continuously oozed from his pores, instantly turning him into a blood-soaked figure. Just then, two completely different and terrifying fluctuations of law attacked An Zhen from both sides. After Old Asura, at the cost of his own injury, forcefully clashed with An Zhen, he successfully allowed the forces of good and evil to seize upon the opening they saw. The forces of good and evil, symbolizing the two opposing sides of the world, tore at An Zhen's soul.

An Zhen's lips curled into a slight smile. In the eyes of the three gods, An Zhen suddenly vanished like a reflection in water, as if the figure that had just dealt a heavy blow to the old Asura was merely an illusion. They instinctively assumed defensive stances, feeling troubled and somewhat fearful by the opponent's utterly unreasonable spatial movement.

Suddenly, the instinct for battle made the God of Kindness feel an unprecedented sense of terrifying crisis coming from behind. Realizing that she might not be able to escape, the God of Kindness suddenly burst out with the power within her body. The Heart of Kindness she held in her hands merged into the body of the first God of Kindness. The pure and lovely woman in white revealed a compassionate and kind expression from the bottom of her heart, like a pure saint who cared for all living beings. Her gentle and clear soul fluctuations were like heavenly music, as if the angels of the divine kingdom were singing a lullaby in her ear.

Why didn't the first generation of good and evil god-kings pass on their ultimate artifacts to their successors like Shura did? Because the ultimate artifacts they possessed were far too dangerous, even surpassing the danger level of Shura's Demon Sword and the Staff of Destruction in some respects. For example, the God of Goodness's Heart of Kindness didn't possess particularly powerful offensive capabilities, but it could unleash the power of "kindness." As the name suggests, this power distorted the minds of living beings, allowing those weaker than the user to almost instantly "reinvent themselves." Even if someone was once a heinous criminal, they could instantly become a benevolent person who wouldn't even step on an ant, willing to sacrifice their life and everything for acts of kindness.

If left unchecked, this extraordinary artifact could fall into the hands of a habitable planet, potentially corrupting all living beings there and turning them into benevolent beings. This is not a good thing; distorting the mind is a terrifying thing, akin to eliminating a person from their spirit, leaving only benevolent puppets to survive.

The old Asura and the God of Evil immediately charged in, attempting to unleash their maximum damage while their teammates controlled the enemy. They were well aware of the God of Goodness's abilities; if the madness and rage within the Golden Dragon King hadn't been so intense, even terrifying the God-King, the God of Goodness could have easily controlled the Golden Dragon King for a mere instant. And for beings of their level, there were countless things they could do in a split second.

In a daze, An Zhen's expression froze.

An unprecedented and intense sense of guilt suddenly enveloped him.

How could such a kind person do such a heinous thing?!
However, before the Goddess of Kindness could react, a sinister glint suddenly appeared deep within her dark eyes. So eerie and malevolent, so capable of causing the collapse of the world, the power of evil wreaking havoc on all living beings was reflected in the Goddess of Kindness's eyes. She inwardly felt a sense of foreboding. She was all too familiar with this power; it was the evil power of the God of Evil. The inherently opposing laws had become An Zhen's best antidote, even influencing her in the opposite way.

When the Goddess of Kindness came to her senses, a finger was already touching her brow. In an instant, the Goddess of Kindness felt a force evenly acting on her body, followed by a sharp pain. Her whole body trembled violently as countless different laws of power bombarded her, constantly trying to tear her divine body apart.

The Goddess of Kindness was sent flying backward, her eyes still filled with bewilderment. She had too many questions in her heart: why was the other party able to use the power of the God of Evil, as well as the power of countless laws? How could a deity simultaneously cultivate and comprehend so many different laws?

An Zhen's figure disappeared calmly.

In the reflection of the world, an existence as arrogant as the Heavenly Dao looked down upon the three God-Kings.

Destiny.

Spring and Autumn Period.

Having already provided support to the God of Goodness, and with all their might on guard against the surrounding Asuras and evil, they suddenly sensed the malice of fate, and a strong sense of crisis suddenly surged into their hearts.

Often, what leads a colossus to destruction is not external factors, but rather the beginning of destruction arising from its more vulnerable internal state. Within the resilient meridians of the God-King's divine body, vast divine power circulates along fixed pathways. This should be a step where no problems should arise; even Soul Masters who have just embarked on the path of transcendence rarely experience such a disturbance in their meridian energy. However, under the cruel hand of fate, this almost impossible event occurred.

A node in their internal meridians suddenly collapsed, and one wrong step affected their entire bodies. Vast divine power transformed into a sword wielded against themselves, their auras instantly becoming chaotic. Just as they tried to regain control, this inexplicable chaos intensified, as if the power of time had accelerated. The two god-kings, not being adept at the laws of time, were relatively weak in their ability to cope, and someone clearly wouldn't give them a chance to react. Then, as expected, a figure suddenly appeared and attacked. Even though the two forcibly controlled their chaotic auras to launch an attack on An Zhen, the sudden change in their physical condition put them at a disadvantage, especially since they were already significantly weaker than An Zhen.

Terrifying fluctuations of divine power erupted one after another in this cosmic starry sky, constantly disturbing the surrounding spacetime.

On the other side, An Zhen was clearly gaining the upper hand against three God-Kings. The God of Destruction and Gu Yuena were also facing off against the remaining two God-Kings, while the other gods were engaged in their own battles. However, the situation on the field was already showing signs of its impending outcome almost immediately upon the start of the battle. The revolutionary faction in the divine realm firmly held the upper hand. Although the conservative faction in the divine realm was at a significant disadvantage in terms of the number of warriors at the first-level gods and below, they had the upper hand in terms of the number of God-Kings.

However, the three most powerful first-generation God-Kings are currently being heavily suppressed by An Zhen alone, barely able to attend to their own needs, let alone support the others. As for the remaining Lieyan Ji Dong, he is inherently weaker than the veteran God-Kings and lacks a super artifact. Facing a veteran God-King empowered by a super artifact, Ji Dong is being relentlessly pushed back by the God of Destruction wielding the Scepter of Destruction. Lieyan faces a similar situation against Gu Yue Na. Although Gu Yue Na hasn't returned to her full strength, with the Dragon God Core's enhancement, she can fight the Kind God-King, who wields a super artifact, to a standstill, let alone Lieyan.
