Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 1318 God - Moon Conceals and Descends (6K)

The dilution of divine authority is a very serious issue.

Simply put, some gods have similar divine authority; if you eat more, I will eat less.

The most typical examples of this are the water god and Poseidon, the sea god among the elemental gods.

If the current God Realm were like it used to be, with more than twenty God Kings, then a Level One God like Rong Nianbing, who could cultivate his divine power wheel to the eighth level, would have the opportunity to directly elevate his position as God of Emotions to the God King level.

However, it wouldn't work if it were Poseidon, the sea god who could also cultivate eight halos of light, because a large part of his authority overlapped with that of the water god among the elemental gods.

Unless he can sideline the water god to the level of Hypnos, the god of slaughter under the god of asura, and make him a second-level subordinate god under his own pantheon, the sea god will not have a chance to become the king of gods.

Similarly, this is why Tang San's Asura authority was taken away.

Your Asura authority overlaps somewhat with my Rakshasa authority!

These two brothers started as first-level gods, which already made the Asura God's foundation somewhat unstable. Then they kept trying to become even stronger. No wonder the Asura God couldn't tolerate it.

The reason why angels and demons only have temples and divine positions in the divine realm, but are not actually gods, is absolutely related to the conflict of power between demons and demons.

After all, once the Rakshasa and Angel gods, who had no successors, were to leave without a trace, the Asura god wouldn't need to worry about any conflict of divine authority unless the Rakshasa god's automatic succession device found a new successor.

This is precisely why the Asura God, a god-king who has existed since the beginning of the divine realm, mixed his power into the City of Slaughter, interfering with the Rakshasa's legacy.

If another Rakshasa god came up, his heart wouldn't be able to take it.

As for the Rakshasa God, you might say that it's strange that he knew the Asura God existed and couldn't pass on his divine position, yet still left the inheritance, but it doesn't seem like there's anything wrong with that.

Rakshasa's ideas were simple.

What if the Asura God happens to resemble the successor when the successor receives the inheritance?

Wouldn't that mean getting the God-King position for free in one step?

Similarly, this is why Poseidon would tamper with the angel god's test. This old god's authority is light and the sea, and the successor of the angel god is also a first-level god.

If he were to ascend to the throne, the water god would share in his authority over the ocean, the angel god would share in his power of light, and he himself would be left with nothing.

This is why the Sea God and Asura had to stick together when they left the God Realm; they were genuinely worried about encountering the Angel and Rakshasa brothers outside the God Realm.

They still have some hope in a two-on-two situation, but in a two-on-one situation, no matter who it is, they are definitely going to be beaten to death.

Inside the temple, Huo Yuhao's eyes were filled with deep thought.

Hmm. It seems that he can't randomly draw the part of the Sea God's Authority that is related to the Angel God's Authority now, lest Tang San realize what's going on.

However, according to the God of Pride, the God of Destruction is currently staging a coup?

It's not that he doesn't trust the God of Destruction, the God King; it's just that in their Douluo Continent, one should only see a part of the whole picture from a small part.

Given the God of Arrogance's intelligence, and the fact that he had been beaten seven times before finally being able to speak to him calmly, he felt that the God of Destruction might not be very intelligent either.

With this level of intelligence, trying to stage a coup with Tang San? This God of Destruction might just get killed by Tang San!

Huo Yuhao pursed his lips. He had never dared to underestimate Tang San. Tang San was just bad, not stupid.

Although the God of Pride also said that the God of Destruction issued the order to them through the central hub of the divine realm after activating it, Huo Yuhao still felt something was wrong.

First, according to Rong Nianbing, at this point in time, the rotating chairman of the God Realm Committee is Tang San, and only Tang San has the key to the God Realm Central Hub. How did the God of Destruction open the God Realm Central Hub?

Besides that, the only means you seven original sin gods used to stage a coup was all-in?

You, the God of Pride, are already among the most powerful of the seven first-level original sin gods, yet you were beaten to this state by me, who doesn't even have a single godhood. With your fighting strength, you still dare to send troops to capture the original Shrek Seven Devils?

Even if those guys are bad, they can't possibly be worse than you, the Arrogant God, who can only open the Nine Heavens of Arrogance!

You arrogant god have no divine artifacts, no divine skills, all you have is the Nine Heavens of Arrogance, which doubles your combat power. Is that awesome?

Ning Rongrong's Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda can double everyone's attributes, bro!

Huo Yuhao found the matter increasingly suspicious. With the meager skills of the Original Sin Gods, he thought, "I think there's still a chance if all seven of you work together to activate that Original Sin God Grand Array. Should we split up?"

Don't divide yourself up too much, okay?

"Hmph, you don't believe in my lord's abilities? My lord is the God of Destruction, one of the five great God-Kings of the God Realm, a being who truly controls the power of destruction, and possesses the supreme artifact, the Staff of Destruction, mastering countless divine skills. Don't think that just because I'm a little weak, my lord is weak. Dealing with a mere Tang San is a piece of cake for my lord!"

Seeing the doubt radiating from Huo Yuhao's eyes, the God of Arrogance was instantly enraged.

It's fine if you, Huo Yuhao, look down on me, but the greatness of my Lord is beyond your imagination.

"Okay, okay, I don't disbelieve you."

Seeing that the God of Arrogance's face was swollen like a steamed bun, yet he still tried to defend the God of Destruction, Huo Yuhao quickly waved his hand to interrupt him.

He did not deny the power of the God of Destruction as the King of Gods.

He had met Rong Nianbing the first time he smuggled himself into the God Realm, and Huo Yuhao still vividly remembered the terrifying power within Rong Nianbing that seemed capable of destroying a small world in an instant.

But how could the God of Destruction have such a coincidence, launching a coup at exactly this time?

According to the God of Destruction, the other party is waiting for a suitable opportunity.

In the eyes of the gods in the divine realm, he hasn't even fully broken through level 100 yet. Even if he's anxious, there's no need to rush like this.

"Take me to the central hub of the divine realm first. Enter the hub quietly, without making a sound, understand?"

Huo Yuhao took out two Moon Concealment Candies and tossed them to the God of Pride.

He poured a lot of divine power into this thing, and it also has a certain degree of invisibility effect on gods. It's quite remarkable that it wasn't eliminated as it got stronger.

[Divine Moon Concealment: Allows the spirit of "Divine Moon Concealment" to descend upon one's headless soul, temporarily eliminating sound and aura, making it difficult for divine sense to detect.]

[Is the Moon's Hidden Spirit, imbued with divine power, truly the Moon's Hidden Spirit, or simply the Moon's Hidden Spirit itself?]

Although the God of Arrogance was somewhat dismissive, he still nodded and accepted the spirit-summoning candy that Huo Yuhao offered—he didn't want to get beaten up.
