Tang San's lips curled into a very faint smile; he couldn't be more satisfied with this arrangement.

In the center of the hall, the five great god-kings took a step forward simultaneously.

Blood red, purplish black, emerald green, pure black, and platinum. Five streams of divine power, symbolizing the origin of this divine realm, surged into the sky and converged in mid-air into a dazzling pillar of light.

The beam of light struck the void in front of the main hall.

With a deafening roar, a pitch-black spatial passage, over ten meters in diameter, was forcibly torn open. Inside the passage, the raging spatial turbulence was forcefully suppressed by the power of the five God-Kings, forming a smooth conveyor belt.

"Go. Explore the path ahead for the divine realm." The evil god-king's voice boomed in everyone's ears.

The five God-Kings exerted their power together, and their immense divine power transformed into a giant hand that grabbed the Shrek Seven Devils and others, along with Flander and the others, and threw them directly into the bottomless interdimensional passage.

........

[The Inner Realm], the Divine Realm Committee,

Five figures, representing the supreme power of this universe, sat together.

The Angel God King sat in the main seat and recounted all the information Qian Xunji had brought back. When he mentioned that the gods of the [outer realm] had gone so far as to directly intervene in the mortal competition by unleashing divine light to protect the mortal named Tang San, the atmosphere at the round table became somewhat heavy.

The silence lasted for a long time.

"They reacted quickly." The Angel King crossed his arms.

"It was even a little faster than expected."

None of the god-kings present were fools. Since they dared to send people to forcibly smuggle themselves into another parallel world, they anticipated that the divine realm there would eventually discover it. However, when that moment actually arrived, it was still a troublesome situation.

The two parallel universes have similar configurations, and the divine realms are roughly equal in terms of resources and combat strength. If a full-scale war were to break out, it would undoubtedly result in a mutually destructive outcome.

Their only advantage is that they strike first and know more than the other side.

"So what if I know?"

Seated to the left of the Angel King was a woman with a bewitching face, draped in a black-purple gauze dress. She lightly fiddled with her nails, which were painted with dark red nail polish. This was the Evil God King of the Inner Realm, and also the most unpredictable one in this divine realm.

"Just like how we can't send a large number of people over there right now because of the limitations of the cosmic crystal wall, even if they lock onto our coordinates, they still can't get over. A few small fry can't cause much of a stir."

"We must not be careless."

A gentle, deep voice took over the conversation. The speaker was a middle-aged man with a weathered face and a thick beard, dressed in a faded linen robe, looking like a compassionate priest. This was the Kind God-King of the [Inner Realm].

The Kind God-King placed his hands, crossed, on the table: "The God-King opposite me, having managed to remain in this position, is no fool waiting to be killed. Now that they've noticed something amiss, they'll definitely take action. This…"

Before he could finish speaking, the five god-kings on the round table simultaneously stopped what they were doing.

They all turned their heads in unison, their gazes piercing through the layers of clouds, fixing on the direction of Douluo Star in the lower realm.

Just a moment ago, a sudden spatial fluctuation, like a steel needle piercing the surface of a calm lake, forcefully broke through the crystal barrier of this universe and descended upon a corner of the Douluo Continent.

"It seems you were right." The evil goddess sneered, lowering her hand from her chin. "They not only took action, but they also sent people over."

The Angel King tapped his fingers lightly twice on the table: "Not bad. The reaction was decisive."

He withdrew his gaze, looking at the other four people at the round table, his tone becoming more composed: "However, we are different from them. We sent people there with a clear objective and a well-defined plan. But they are sending people here now, like headless flies, completely unaware of our background."

The Angel King paused, then continued analyzing the situation: "Although the other side has noticed our infiltration, without solid evidence, they cannot be certain whether our ultimate goal is a full-scale war, or merely a probe to verify a similar world. This information gap is our greatest asset."

That makes sense.

Seated beside the Kind God King was a handsome man radiating vibrant life force: the Life God King. He nodded slightly and sighed, "Life deserves reverence. To rashly launch a divine war before understanding the opponent's true strength is indeed unwise. The other side shares the same sentiment."

"So we're just going to sit here and wait to die? Just watch the bugs they sent crawl all over our territory?"

A crisp yet violent voice rang out from the other side of the round table.

The speaker was a little girl who looked only seven or eight years old. She wore a purple-black tutu and held a tattered rag doll in her arms. This was the Destruction God King of the Underworld.

The little girl yanked the rag doll's head off and slammed it heavily on the table: "If you ask me, just grab those brats who were just sent over and take them to the God Realm. Extract their souls and refine them; what information can't we find then?"

"No."

The Angel King shook his head, rejecting the proposal outright.

"Arresting them now would be tantamount to tearing off the mask and cornering them," the Angel God-King analyzed. "Don't forget, the people we sent to the mortal realm not only escaped unscathed, but they were even granted the right to inherit a divine position. Although we don't know if they were testing us or for some other reason, at least they haven't openly broken off relations and gone all out."

"If we arrest their scouts right now, the situation will spiral out of control instantly, and we'll become very passive."

The Angel King made the final decision: "Let's see what these people they sent over are up to. I'll have people from the lower realms keep a close eye on them. As long as they don't touch our core interests, let them jump around for a couple of days."

When the topic of divine succession came up, the atmosphere at the round table subtly shifted.

"You said your descendant obtained the divine throne of the Angel God over there?" The evil goddess looked at the Angel God King with a half-smile. "How did such a good thing fall into your lap?"

The gazes of the other god-kings also drifted over, intentionally or unintentionally.

Everyone present knew that these were two parallel universes, with almost identical personnel configurations in the divine realm. If they could find an opportunity to devour the god-king on the other side, who shared the same origin as themselves, their strength would undoubtedly experience a qualitative leap, and they might even become the so-called supreme god-king.

The fact that Qian Xunji was able to obtain the inheritance of the angelic position over there sends a dangerous yet tempting signal.

Faced with the subtle probing and jealousy of the several god-kings, the Angel God-King remained unfazed, merely nodding slightly: "Just lucky. The angel god over there is probably trying to test our strength. It's just the inheritance of a first-level god; whether we can successfully obtain it is still uncertain."
