The Evil Soul Master is actually myself

Seeing his sister's posture, Su Ming's heart skipped a beat, and he cautiously asked, "What is it?"

Su Xuan'er glanced at her younger brother indifferently, paused, and said, "Regarding Xiao Tao's matter. She has made great sacrifices over the years, sharing a lot of pressure for me in the Abyss, and even risking her life on the Journey to the River of Oblivion. Her contributions are immense and should not be overlooked."

"What do you want to say?" Su Ming asked at the opportune moment.

She pondered for a moment and said, "I know what she wants. You were entangled with her years ago, so be it. I'm not a jealous woman. If she's willing, I'll personally ask for your hand in marriage and give her a proper status."

Su Ming said silently, "You can decide for yourself." Then he turned and left, taking a step out of the torn sky and into the void.

In the living room, after Su Ming left, the older sister closed her eyes to rest for a while, then opened her beautiful eyes, full of anger. She stomped her foot and gritted her teeth, saying, "Su Ming! You deliberately ignored me, weren't you just forcing me to make a decision? You care a lot, but you're avoiding the issue."

“If I disagree, although you won’t blame me, I’ll probably hold a grudge for the rest of my life. It’s not fair to Xiaotao either; it’s extremely cold.”

Su Xuan'er's pretty face was puffed up with anger. It was also difficult for her to make the decision.

"Well, never mind." After a moment, the beautiful and elegant woman sighed softly, her expression languid, her body slumped, and she leaned back in her recliner like Ge You, saying, "It's easy for a woman to pursue a man. It's normal for Ah Ming to be hesitant when he was young. It's hardest to accept the kindness of a beautiful woman."

Such a beautiful older sister speaks softly and is very obedient, yet she has a strong aura. Which younger brother could resist her? It can only be said that it is the nature of men to always want it all.

Su Xuan'er thought to herself that as the first wife, she should not be too jealous and should have a magnanimous and tolerant attitude. Most importantly, things are different now than before. In the past, Ma Xiaotao, herself, and even Su Ming were all geniuses of the same level, each with their own ambition and pride, and they could not be willing to be inferior to others.

Even Su Ming and Xiao Taozhen, who married into the family, are in a dominant position within it.

Now, Su Ming has stepped above the True God realm, far surpassing Ma Xiaotao by several worlds. Is taking her a condescension? Not to mention Su Xuan'er herself, whose Martial Soul has evolved repeatedly, already surpassing others, condensing a spiritual energy core, achieving the status of the Bi'an Sovereign, and whose combat power is firmly established in the True God realm.

Only by clearly distinguishing between primary and secondary tasks can this matter be carried out.

"So annoying." Thinking of her own child, Su Xuan'er couldn't help but sigh. She loved Su Ming very much and had been close friends with Xiao Tao since childhood, so she couldn't bear to sever ties. Caught in the middle, she was the one who found it hardest to break off the relationship.

Beyond the heavens.

As Su Ming stepped into the vast and dazzling sea of ​​stars, his heart was filled with complex emotions. He understood Su Xuan'er's implication all too well that his failure to refuse her on the spot had probably broken his sister's heart.

"Fine, at worst I'll just kneel on durians for a few months when I get back," Su Ming muttered, looking at the distant starry sea. He felt so emboldened by being favored.

Rumble!

In the past few days, Su Ming traversed the Milky Way, following his intuition, and finally arrived in front of a magnificent and ancient pyramid. The nine-tiered pyramid, composed of layers of stacked stone platforms, exuded a sense of ancient vicissitudes and profound weight.

Su Ming examined it carefully and found that the various functions and features of this 'Heavenly Revelation Ritual' were the same as those of the one he had built in ancient times, only it had become much older and more incomplete. He couldn't help but frown and ponder deeply.

This is a paradox of spacetime. However, his cultivation level was too low when he was guided by the Origin Inheritance, so he couldn't see anything. Perhaps this thing is not that thing, but a flower of spacetime that seems familiar.

He looked again at the weather instrument, where the legacy left behind had dissipated over countless years, including the polluted part and a small plane. The final result of the tower spirit's deduction and nurturing should be the Tiger of Calamity's End.

Su Ming was not disappointed, as he had anticipated this outcome; it was not impossible for the power of the Supreme God to reverse cause and effect.

He opened his left hand, and a wisp of crystalline mist slowly drifted toward the top of the majestic pyramid, merging with the golden wheel on the pyramid amidst a roar, instantly softening the originally blazing sun's radiance.

Rumble!

Su Ming unleashed his supreme power, drawing in countless stars. The vast amount of matter, transformed by the laws, became various rare treasures, continuously repairing the damage to the Heavenly Revelation Ritual.

That sun wheel is actually an energy core transformed from an ancient spiritual energy manufacturing technology, which can continuously replenish energy from the void. The crystalline mist is the 'Sea of ​​the Mind' researched by Wangchuantu, which allows disciples to enter the virtual world for training through soul projection.

Su Ming combined these two things, and a virtual world that was almost tangible was created, capable of accommodating billions of living beings to hone their skills.

To put it simply, he turned the Apocalypse Ritual into a server, expanding its 'signal' outwards, and gradually enveloping the entire universe.

In addition, Su Ming also made use of the blood pool in the abyss as the basis for nurturing the bodies of 'players', which could be thrown into battle in the abyss to gradually unify the abyss while also forging a large army.

Su Ming's idea was to select talents from the virtual world, put them into the abyss and other planes to hone them into an army. Whenever a plane was conquered, the Pantheon behind him would immediately send a priest to take office and take charge of the power, to sort out the spiritual veins, strengthen the divine origin, and finally gradually build a super divine circle and divine court, with gods and immortals on the same level.

"Once we have conquered the entire universe, we will use the power of the Supreme God to break through the cosmic crystal wall and intervene in all the heavens." Su Ming's gaze was profound. This method was actually a weakened version of the Supreme God Temple.

At his level, he vaguely sensed that several great planes, no weaker than the Douluo God Realm, were converging on him. If nothing unexpected happened, these should be the Great Worlds of Mad God and Qin Emperor.

A great war is about to break out. Tang San's solution in the future is compromise, while Su Ming is extremely domineering and insists on being the one in charge.

“It seems that Soul Masters who prove their true godhood through their own efforts have a limited lifespan, but their great power belongs to themselves. Those who become true gods through their divine position and authority can achieve immortality, but they are limited by their divine position and authority,” Su Ming pondered.

In comparison, it is too difficult to become a god on one's own. Only a few ancient gods and geniuses like Tang San and Rong Nianbing have been able to achieve it, and they only comprehended the changes of the fundamental laws after holding power for a long time.

Fortunately, the rune path he pioneered can accelerate this process, which requires enlightening billions of Douluo Continent beings and Soul Masters!

In the virtual world, they might barely be able to match the power of the gods.

"It would be best to establish a term system for 'divine positions' and a bottom-ranking elimination system, while those who make meritorious contributions in conquering planes can establish a branch of the divine court in the local area and wield power. Isn't this just an alternative system of distributing land based on military merit?" Su Ming kept refining the system in his mind.

Chapter 336 Decision

In the starry sky, Su Ming stood atop the Heavenly Revelation Ritual, with endless auspicious light shining down, continuously enveloping the entire Douluo Continent. A layer of clear radiance merged into the invisible air, blending with the light and dust.

After the clear light silently seeped into the crystal-clear wall, a blurry, majestic phantom of a temple appeared, trembled for a moment, and then dissipated, without hindering this thing from enveloping Douluo.

Seeing that the virtual world had expanded to the entire Douluo Continent, Su Ming nodded. Now all that was left was to slowly guide all the Soul Masters into the virtual world.

“With the Sea of ​​the Mind as its foundation and the Heavenly Revelation Ritual as its support, perhaps we should first choose a name.” Su Ming pondered, “Hmm, let’s call it [Primordial Chaos Realm], to open up chaos and rebuild heaven and earth.”

As soon as the thought was uttered, an image of a void world appeared in the void. The three immortal talismans of the Primordial Chaos Realm shone with golden light, and then disappeared into the void.

"Now that this matter is settled, it's time to go back. The Primordial Realm cannot be perfected in a short time." Su Ming looked around, and with a thought, he entered the Void Realm, then used the laws of space to instantly jump into the Floating City.

Inside the pavilion, Su Xuan'er looked to the side thoughtfully. As the void expanded, a young man shrouded in the clear light walked in with a smile.

"You're back! Where have you been fooling around with other women again?" she said irritably.

Su Ming smiled slightly, not refuting his angry sister. He honestly said, "There's something I need your help with. When expanding the Forgotten River Path, please also promote the 'Hongmeng Realm' to the public and strive to build more floating cities to serve as bases for expanding the virtual world."

Upon hearing this, Su Xuan'er frowned slightly, but it wasn't hard to understand. After all, the virtual world was developed by the ninth-level soul masters of [Flying Immortal Platform] by combining dreams and the Sea of ​​the Mind, and there were specific soul tools to help disciples and mentors.

The Apocalypse Ritual is now equivalent to a satellite, and the floating city is equivalent to a base station. They can also roam freely in the void and starry sea, serving as weapons for attack.

“Yes, but that would require the support of other countries.” Su Xuan’er didn’t refuse; she was already used to being Su Ming’s steward.

Su Ming's spirits lifted, and he laughed, "You don't need to worry about them. The various techniques of the Forgotten River Path are tempting enough, and we have absolute strength. Under coercion and enticement, the other nations will agree."

"It's good that you have a good decision." Su Xuan'er nodded expressionlessly.

Seeing this, Su Ming felt a little guilty. Then, remembering what had happened before, he thought for a moment and his eyes lit up. "Sister, I have a gift for you."

"What?" Su Xuan'er asked casually, but she was actually tilting her head slightly, clearly very concerned.

Su Ming reached out from the void, and with a flick of his hand, a dazzling, crystalline dark red gem appeared. A supreme divine power flowed, killing intent surged, a sea of ​​blood and calamity emerged, and the faint sounds of clashing swords and galloping horses could be heard.

"What is this?" Su Xuan'er's interest was piqued. She could clearly sense that this deep, dark red gem contained a vast and powerful force, far exceeding her current level.

"The Asura Godhead." Su Ming didn't keep him in suspense any longer. "It's a God-King level authority. Holding it allows one to leap to the True God Realm and become an unparalleled being. It wields the power of slaughter and bloodshed, making it extremely powerful and particularly suitable for you."

During his journey in the divine realm, he had already reconstituted all the vanished powers, such as those of angels, rakshasa, and sea gods.

"You want me to become the Asura God?" Upon hearing this, Su Xuan'er's expression changed. She looked at the object with complicated eyes. The Su family had heard of the Asura God before. It was once the family's highest dream, but they only wanted to become the guardian family. Now she could directly absorb it. She could only sigh that her younger brother had grown up and become successful.

"Yes and no." Su Ming remained noncommittal in the face of his sister's doubts. He explained earnestly, "The authority of a god is bound by cause and effect, a heavy burden of heaven and earth. Once inherited, it is difficult to escape."

He recalled the difficult days when he was entangled in karma. An ordinary soul master would have had no chance of survival. The only way to get rid of it was to find someone to transfer the karma to, namely, a god-successor.

Su Ming said, "I gave you the Asura Godhead so that you could observe and learn from it, and eventually become a god through your own power and merge it into your body to achieve the position of God King. This way, it will be much easier to give up your power, and you will also gain great benefits. After all, your Dao Foundation determines your future path."

Su Xuan'er said silently, "I understand, I won't rely on this thing." She was also confident that she could enter the realm of true godhood with her own body. Now that she had the combat power of a true god and a profound foundation in the Dao of Runes, it would not be difficult for her to climb to the laws of true godhood with this.

"It's good that you know your limits," Su Ming said with a light laugh. He had plenty of time and was in no hurry, remaining completely at ease.

After establishing his rule over the mortal realm, he was preparing to travel to the abyss of the underworld when he suddenly heard that a disciple was requesting an audience outside the pavilion.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Su Ming asked in surprise, "Gu Yuena, what brings you here?"

The newcomer was a stunningly beautiful woman with silver hair, a slender yet voluptuous figure, and a noble and powerful aura, like a cold and aloof queen. Several years had passed, and Gu Yuena was around twenty years old, in the prime of her life, exuding charm and allure with every gesture, her captivating eyes sparkling with captivating beauty.

Behind her followed a blonde, mature woman of the same age, with a graceful figure, but not as aloof. She possessed a gentle, sun-like warmth, like a beautiful and youthful older sister next door—clearly Su Jue'er.

"We would like to resign," Gu Yuena said bluntly upon arrival.

Upon hearing this, Su Ming seemed to be deep in thought. Although these two, including Xue Di, were all from the lineage of soul beasts, they had made great contributions in the Lost Abyss of Floating City over the years, and had devoted themselves to the cause. Moreover, their combat strength was not to be underestimated, not much weaker than that of a Limit Douluo, and they were also among the few who could condense organs.

"Why do you want to leave? The River of Oblivion is currently experiencing rapid development, and there are many benefits to be gained. It wouldn't be unreasonable to even grant you the position of a chief god based on your contributions," Su Ming tried to persuade him.

He did not use the agreed-upon twenty years of assistance as a threat. Gu Yuena and the others had already helped Wangchuantu a great deal, and he could not forget their contributions.

Gu Yuena pursed her lips, her beautiful eyes filled with complex emotions as she looked at Su Ming, then shook her head and said, "You should already know our identities. Xingdou has something to do, we need to go back."

Having said that, she didn't say anything more, cupped her hands in greeting, and regardless of Su Ming's attitude, turned around and left gracefully with Su Jue'er. The blonde girl glanced back, seemingly wanting to say something but then followed Gu Yuena away.

After the two left, Su Ming remained silent in the living room for a long time, then let out a soft sigh.

He knew perfectly well what Gu Yuena meant. She saw no hope that the soul beast race could surpass humans, and she was unwilling to be a surrenderer, join the God Realm, and become one of its members.

After learning of Tang San's death in battle several years ago, Gu Yuena knew that she could never hope to catch up with Su Mingqi in her lifetime. As humans grew stronger, soul beasts became weaker. As long as the laws of soul rings remained, this fundamental contradiction was unsolvable.

Su Ming felt there was one more thing: Gu Yuena would probably have to go back and fight back with all her might. The Silver Dragon King himself and his clone would have to fight to the death, with the winner becoming king and the loser being completely wiped out. Only then would 'I' truly be me.

Chapter 367 The Arrival of a Great Era

Su Ming paid little attention to the departure of Gu Yuena and her group of transformed soul beasts, and instead headed to the Underworld, which was buried deep within the Douluo Continent.

This realm was created in ancient times to regulate the cycle of heaven and earth, reshape the six paths of reincarnation, and is the final destination of all living beings. Over the years, so many soul masters have been born, aged, sick, and died, yet no supernatural phenomena such as ghost cultivators have appeared, which is largely thanks to the underworld.

However, those skilled in battle do not achieve great feats. The underworld permeates all things, blending in with the world. Previously, Su Ming thought it did not exist because his cultivation was too low to sense it. Later, after entering the abyss, he used the laws of death to activate the power of the underworld and only then did he realize it.

The underworld once existed, but it was abandoned and sealed by the gods. After being abandoned, it was left unattended and its influence on the world dropped to an extreme point. Perhaps it will perish after ten thousand generations.

This is why the River Styx, which once stretched across the abyss, no longer appears and gradually dries up, making it difficult for the Blood Pool to regenerate.

Of course, the ancient gods deliberately downplayed the existence of the underworld, not because they were intentionally targeting it, but because they did not want anyone to arbitrarily control the key places of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, otherwise it would be very likely to be exploited.

Everyone has selfish desires. If the powerful beings who control reincarnation were to alter the Book of Life and Death for the sake of their relatives and friends, choosing the best for reincarnation, or even deliberately not washing away the memories of their previous lives, then the world would be in chaos.

Therefore, after he left, he placed the underworld under the management of heaven and earth, gradually fading its legends and influence.

Su Ming also felt that the decision to create this was correct. During his time in charge of the Underworld, he was not a person of that era and could maintain a general level of fairness. However, his successors could not guarantee this and would inevitably seek benefits for their relatives and friends.

This is not impossible. According to ancient legends from Su Ming's previous life, those powerful cultivators did not respect the order of the underworld. They could reincarnate at will and even erase their lifespan from the Book of Life and Death.

“But every system has its advantages and disadvantages. While downplaying the underworld provides a basic level of fairness to all living beings, it also makes it difficult to use the power of the underworld to expand outwards. So it’s not quite suitable now,” Su Ming thought.

The underworld is a hazy gray sky, with a barren land of sandy black color. Deathly aura swirls around it, and the ends of the earth fade into nothingness, as if it were forged from the energy of souls, lacking authenticity.

As Su Ming walked through the underworld, he projected the various powers of the outside world onto his experience with his supreme power. The underworld continued to tremble, and negative powers such as Asura, Death, Destruction, and Rakshasa resonated with this world, becoming increasingly connected with reality.

The consequence of this was that the presence of the underworld was greatly enhanced, and the authority and power of those associated with the dark side began to grow.

Then, in the blink of an eye, countless magnificent cities rose up in this place, each corresponding to a living true god, relying on their authority, similar to the Ten Yama Palaces.

"It's time to leave. Now we just need to send those Dark Gods to their positions." Su Ming quietly looked at the underworld, which had undergone a dramatic transformation and now possessed a grand, ancient atmosphere.
