Douluo Continent: Dark Demon God Biao, inheriting the position of an evil god

Chapter 173 Stripping Tang San of his Asura Godhood for a Thousand Years [Third Update]

Zhang Lexuan nodded, then seemed to remember something, took out a small jade bottle from her storage soul tool, and handed it to Dai Yuntian, "Take this. It's a calming and restorative elixir that I prepared myself. Although you said it doesn't need to be boiled, this can be taken directly. It can quickly restore mental strength and stabilize the mind. I saw that you used up a lot of energy just now. Take it when you get back tonight and get some rest. We're leaving early tomorrow morning."

Dai Yuntian accepted the still-warm jade bottle. Its smooth surface felt gentle to the touch, and he could sense the mild medicinal properties within. This thoughtful care warmed his heart: "Thank you, Sister Lexuan."

"And then you said thank you."

Zhang Lexuan frowned, feigning anger.

"Hehe... I'm used to it..." Dai Yuntian rubbed his hair and chuckled.

His moral standards from his past life were too high, making him subconsciously want to say thank you to those who helped him.

Zhang Lexuan smiled slightly: "Alright, go back now and get ready. We'll meet at the inner courtyard square tomorrow morning, so don't be late."

"Okay, Sister Lexuan, you should get some rest too."

Dai Yuntian put the jade bottle away, said no more, and turned to leave the courtyard.

……

Meanwhile, in the divine realm, at the central temple.

Inside the magnificent hall, light flowed.

Two great god-kings—the god of evil and the god of good.

Furthermore, the God of Destruction and the God of Life, two of the three great law enforcement gods, are gathered together.

Each of the first-level gods performed their respective duties and sat in the lower positions.

The atmosphere at the meeting was not relaxed; in fact, it was rather somber.

The God of Destruction, clad in purple robes and exuding a fierce aura, was stating his views: "The divine realm has been entrenched for too long. The lower realms are flourishing, and the power of faith and the will of living beings are growing stronger day by day. The existing divine realm structure is no longer sufficient. Expanding the divine realm, absorbing more outstanding beings from the lower realms to become gods, and stabilizing and expanding our order is an inevitable trend!"

This wasn't the first time he had proposed expanding the God Realm; after all, the geniuses of Douluo Continent were becoming more and more outstanding with each generation.

Take Mu En and Long Xiaoyao from the lower realm, for example. Aren't they both better than Tang San and the Shrek Seven Devils in the past?

Tang San was able to become a god only with the strong support of two gods.

They reached level 99 through their own hard work. Don't they deserve to become gods?
However, Tang San had rejected the idea several times before, and now that Tang San was not around, it was the perfect opportunity.

The goddess of life sat beside him, her demeanor gentle and serene, yet her brows conveyed approval.

The god of evil sat enthroned, his face obscured by his black robes, only his fingertips unconsciously tapping the armrests, indicating that he was listening intently and thinking deeply.

The god of kindness sat beside him, his expression serene.

Just then, the God of Evil suddenly sensed the movement of the Divine Test Mark, but he could not act on it now, since the Divine Realm Conference was still ongoing. However, he figured that Dai Yuntian must have something important to discuss with him, and it wouldn't be good not to respond.

After thinking it over, he transmitted his voice to the Thunder God at the door: "Go and observe the lower realm to see if any villains are plotting to cause trouble!"

Upon hearing this, Thor headed straight for the Temple of Poseidon.

In his view, only Tang San could be called a villain by the evil god.

When he arrived at the Temple of the Sea God, he happened to discover a faint divine thought influencing every move in the lower realm.

Thor was furious. "You, Tang San, it's one thing to cause trouble in the upper realm, but you dare to mess with the lower realm too?"

"Tang San, I'll fuck your mother! Get the hell out here!"

Thor roared and kicked open the gates of the Temple of Poseidon. Thunder roared in his hand as he leaped inside.

Thor burst through the door with a thunderous roar, and the divine light within the Temple of Poseidon suddenly became chaotic.

The faint divine sense that had been manipulating the lower realm abruptly withdrew, and a figure shrouded in blue-gold light emerged from the depths of the hall—it was Tang San. "Thor, you trespassed into my Sea God's Temple without prior notice; is this your standard of courtesy in the divine realm?"

Tang San's voice was calm, yet it carried an invisible pressure.

"Etiquette? You secretly interfere in the mortal realm and violate the laws of the divine realm, yet you dare to talk to me about etiquette?!"

Thor's spear pointed straight ahead, lightning snakes darting around his body: "Today I will enforce the law on behalf of the God-King and slay you, you lowly rat!"

Don't underestimate Thor just because he's only a first-level god. If it really comes down to a fight, Tang San, who has only recently ascended to the God Realm and whose cultivation is not yet stable, might not be his match.

Before he could finish speaking, thunderbolts pounced on Tang San like a raging dragon.

The Trident of the Sea God quietly appeared in Tang San's hand, its azure divine light forming a barrier that kept the violent lightning resistance at bay.

The two divine forces collided violently, causing the temple to rumble incessantly.

at the same time.

The conflict and power fluctuations between Thor and Tang San in the Sea God Temple were immediately sensed by the Evil God, the Good God, the Destruction God, and the Goddess of Life in the Central Temple. The four exchanged glances and decided that the Good God would stay behind to preside over the meeting.

The three gods arrived at the Temple of the Sea God in an instant.

The evil god's voice was icy as he quickly inquired about what had happened from Thor's perspective.

Thor reported truthfully that he was on patrol as ordered by the evil god and discovered that Tang San was using his divine sense to privately influence and interfere with affairs in the lower realm, which clearly violated the laws of the divine realm.

Upon hearing this, the God of Evil and the God of Destruction were immediately enraged.

The God of Destruction's body surged with purple light as he sternly rebuked, "Tang San! You hold two divine positions, and not only have you repeatedly obstructed the expansion plans of the God Realm, but now you dare to openly violate the ironclad rule that the God Realm cannot arbitrarily interfere with the lower realms! Do you know your crime?"

Tang San quickly retorted, "I didn't! This is clearly slander!"

"Slander! With such a dense concentration of the Sea God's divine sense in the lower realm, who else could it be but you?"

"Tang San, Tang San, your ability to lie through your teeth is something I'm truly ashamed of. No wonder you're a half-human, half-animal hybrid!"

Thor scoffed.

The evil god didn't bother with any more words to Tang San and directly read out the verdict: "Tang San, your previous interference in the affairs of the lower realm has not been investigated, but now you have committed another offense, which is a contempt for the laws of the divine realm. In particular, the Asura God, who is in charge of judgment and killing, needs to be restrained even more."

"The ruling is as follows: From this day forward, for the next thousand years, you may only appear and act as the God of the Sea. The position of the God of Asura will be temporarily managed by Xiao Wu. If you need to use the power of the God of Asura, you must submit a detailed application to the Divine Realm Committee in advance. You may only use it temporarily after review and approval. Unauthorized use will be considered a serious violation of the law!"

"Do you have any objections?"

Upon hearing this order, Tang San's face instantly turned ashen with rage, his eyes turned bloodshot, and he began to pant heavily.

A thousand years? What's the difference between that and directly stripping him of his Asura God status?
A thousand years have passed in the realm of gods, while the mortal world has undergone tremendous changes.

He gripped the trident of Poseidon tightly, his divine power surging, clearly enraged to the extreme.

But faced with the combined pressure of the God of Evil and the God of Destruction, the disapproving gaze and silence of the Goddess of Life, and the menacing presence of the God of Thunder in front, he was in a difficult situation.

Tang San also knew that the situation was irreversible.

In the end, Tang San could only suppress his anger and squeeze out a few words through gritted teeth: "...Fine, I agree."

Then, he glared fiercely at the gods, transformed into a streak of blue light, and angrily departed.
