"No need for formalities," the Asura God said calmly. "Su Mo, the process of inheriting divine power is extremely painful. Are you sure you're ready?"
"I'm sure!" Su Mo said firmly.
"Then let's get ready to begin. Also, I must remind you that the Asura God must enforce the law impartially. No matter who makes a mistake, no one can be tolerated. Therefore, no matter what kind of pain and temptation you experience later, you must stick to your principles and not waver."
"Yes, thank you for the reminder, Lord Shura," Su Mo said solemnly.
"Alright, now it's up to you. Good luck..."
After the Asura God finished speaking, his figure slowly faded away and eventually disappeared into this space.
The next moment, a crack appeared in the space in front of Su Mo, eventually forming a dark red light gate.
This is the gate to the inheritance of the ninth trial of Asura.
Without the slightest hesitation, Su Mo's figure disappeared directly into the portal of light.
As the light and shadow shifted, Su Mo found himself in a dark red void, surrounded by an endless aura of slaughter.
Suddenly, a sharp pain struck from behind as Su Mo's external soul bone, the Black Gold Sword Wings, was being peeled away.
Fortunately, he was mentally prepared and did not panic. He just gritted his teeth and endured the excruciating pain.
At the same time, the scene before Su Mo's eyes suddenly changed.
The scene before him was very familiar to him; it was the orphanage in Wuhun City. He transformed back into his child form.
Beside him was a little girl with short reddish-brown hair, exquisitely beautiful, with an innocent and radiant smile; she was none other than the young Bibi Dong.
Next, the scene recreates various memories from Su Mo's past, showing the two playing together, studying together, and so on...
The scene changes very quickly, yet it feels incredibly realistic, as if you were actually there.
Soon, the day arrived for the two to awaken their martial spirits. They were both accepted as disciples by Qian Xunji and began their long period of study.
After that, everything was exactly as Su Mo remembered it.
In the blink of an eye, Su Mo grew up and met Ah Yin and the other girls.
In the illusion, almost all of Su Mo's tender memories from his entire life were depicted.
His teachers, his lover, and everyone he was connected with all appeared in the illusion, and they were all incredibly real.
All of this deepened the bond in Su Mo's heart.
Suddenly, a cold voice echoed through the void.
"If you have feelings, you will surely be soft-hearted."
"If you have love, you will inevitably show favoritism."
"If one day your relatives commit a crime, will you be able to uphold justice and never show favoritism?"
"If you cannot do that, you are not worthy to hold the position of the Asura God."
The moment the words left his mouth, the scene before Su Mo's eyes suddenly changed.
Chapter 213 The Arrival of Asura
What came into Su Mo's view again was a huge circular platform.
On the round platform, a woman of stunning beauty was tightly bound by cold chains; it was Bibi Dong.
However, the woman she was now was completely different from the familiar figure in Su Mo's memory.
She looked much more mature, but she exuded a chilling and sinister aura.
Just then, a scene appeared above Bibi Dong's head.
In the scene, Bibi Dong couldn't resist the temptation of power, so she devoured billions of living beings to increase her strength, and even almost destroyed a plane.
After the scene ended, a cold and ruthless voice suddenly echoed in the void:
"Bibi Dong was driven by her desire for power and gradually lost herself, committing an unforgivable crime."
"Now, as the God of Asura, what should you do with her?"
At this moment, Bibi Dong raised her eyelids and gazed at Su Mo, her eyes filled with deep affection.
"Su Mo, please save me. I don't want to die. I love you. I want to be with you forever."
Upon hearing this, Su Mo remained unmoved and simply watched her quietly.
Although everything before him made him feel as if he were there, as a transmigrator, he had already made full mental preparations before inheriting the divine position.
He knew that the Asura God had to be fair and just, and could not be swayed by personal feelings.
Therefore, this test is destined to be extremely cruel.
Su Mo even prepared for the worst, which was to make him sever all emotional ties.
Fortunately, the test was not as harsh as he had imagined.
However, what Su Mo didn't know was that the final inheritance of the Asura God Trial truly required the inheritor to sever all emotions and love.
However, the Asura God also knew that given Su Mo's situation, it would be difficult for him to do so.
In fact, in the eyes of the Asura God, Su Mo might very well refuse the inheritance outright.
After all, Su Mo still holds the position of God of Destruction. Even if he gives up the position of God of Asura, he can still become a god.
Moreover, destroying a godhood does not require severing all emotions and love. If Su Mo had to choose, the answer would be obvious.
Moreover, the God of Asura was already eager to retire and had no intention of missing out on such a perfect successor.
Therefore, the difficulty of this test has been greatly reduced by the Asura God.
Su Mo doesn't need to completely sever all ties of love and affection; he only needs to uphold justice when his closest relatives make mistakes.
Furthermore, even the Asura God himself was not entirely without emotion or desire.
In the original timeline, Tang San had already been killed, yet the Asura God was still able to revive him. Isn't that favoritism?
"Su Mo, why won't you speak? Please save me... I am your beloved Dong'er, have you forgotten everything we've been through?"
On the round platform, Bibi Dong pleaded bitterly.
However, at that moment, Su Mo conjured the Asura Demon Sword in his hand.
"Dong'er, I'm sorry, but if you have truly committed a heinous crime, even if you are my beloved, I will never tolerate it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Mo suddenly thrust out the Asura Demon Sword in his hand.
The sword pierced straight into Bibi Dong's heart.
In an instant, Bibi Dong's entire body became illusory, then turned into countless points of light and completely dissipated.
The scene shatters and shifts once more.
In the following time, Su Mo's remaining six soul bones were forcibly peeled off one by one.
Each time a piece of soul bone is peeled off, a close relative of Su Mo will appear before him.
He has three remaining lovers: his daughter Su Lingling, who grew up; Qian Renxue; and his teacher Qian Xunji.
Within this illusion, they all committed numerous transgressions, large and small, which Su Mo must judge.
However, from beginning to end, Su Mo kept telling himself that everything in front of him was an illusion.
Therefore, he remained expressionless and calm, showing no emotion whatsoever due to their close relationship with him.
In this way, Su Mo judged them one by one according to the severity of their mistakes. Those who committed serious crimes were executed directly, while those who committed minor crimes had their cultivation abolished or were imprisoned.
After a long time, when the last person was finally judged by Su Mo, he returned to that endless void once again.
Suddenly, a streak of blood-red light flew toward Su Mo's back.
Immediately, a pair of red and gold wings materialized, surrounded by a captivating crimson light.
Immediately afterwards, another streak of light flew in at lightning speed and plunged straight into his right arm.
His right arm was instantly and perfectly covered by a red and gold armor.
Subsequently, five streams of light entered various parts of his body.
Finally, a complete set of Asura Divine Armor was completed.
At this moment, Su Mo's appearance also changed.
His once jet-black, waist-length hair had turned pale white, fluttering even without wind, giving him an exceptionally elegant and aloof appearance.
At the same time, his eyes turned an eerie blood red, captivating and terrifying, making people afraid to look directly at him.
Wearing this Shura God outfit, he looked like a demon god descended to earth.
This is Su Mo's Asura form!
Moreover, in his Asura God form, he exudes a divine aura that keeps people at a distance.
However, this is only on the surface.
Su Mo did not truly sever her feelings and love.
However, he was more or less affected by the Asura God's position, and became a bit more indifferent than before.
Just then, a cold and majestic voice resounded in the void:
"The Ninth Trial of Asura is complete, perfectly aligned with the Asura Godhood. Asura reappears. Reward: All Soul Rings' age is increased by 100,000 years!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Asura Demon Sword Martial Soul quietly appeared in front of Su Mo.
Immediately afterwards, rings of spirit rings appeared one after another.
Su Mo's first five spirit rings all transformed into blood-red 100,000-year spirit rings.
From the fifth to the eighth ring, two golden patterns appeared on each ring, transforming it into a ferocious beast ring.
As for the ninth spirit ring, it truly entered the million-year level, completely transforming into a dazzling gold, becoming a true god-level spirit ring.
Beyond the ninth spirit ring, there is another crimson-gold spirit ring, symbolizing that Su Mo has stepped into the highest realm that countless spirit masters can hardly reach in their entire lives.
Become a god at level 100!
Subsequently, Su Mo's Asura Demon Sword Martial Soul dissipated, and his second Martial Soul, the Destruction Scepter, materialized.
The eight soul rings surrounding him increased their lifespan by 100,000 years in succession.
