Douluo Continent: Building a Divine Kingdom Starting from the Spirit Hall

"Jian'er?"

Pretending to be taken aback, Chen Xin shook his head and denied it, saying, "Impossible. I was in the City of Slaughter at the time, and there were hardly any people left. If Jian'er was in the City of Slaughter, I would have found her."

"The City of Slaughter is divided into two levels. The first level is the City of Slaughter you have visited. Below that is another level called Hell Road, which contains the legacy of the Asura God."

Jian'er has extremely high talent and is a rare twin martial soul possessor. She has both your Seven Kill Sword martial soul and Yuan'er's Haotian Heavy Sword martial soul.

He performed well in the City of Slaughter, obtained the inheritance of the Asura God, and was led into the Hell Road by my father.

A mysterious woman also entered with us. We later learned that she was the successor of the Rakshasa God and had already merged with the divine position to become the new generation of Rakshasa God.

In addition, there is the new generation of Angel God from the Spirit Hall. Angel God, Rakshasa God, and Asura God are mortal enemies. Jian'er must be in grave danger on the Hell Road.

We had some misunderstandings in the past, but they are not insurmountable. Compared to the Spirit Hall, we share the same hatred, and we can join forces to deal with the Spirit Hall.

These are fragments of my father's memories; you'll understand once you see them.

Knowing that Chen Xin was an impatient person, Tang Zhen finished speaking in one breath and flicked a ball of spiritual energy towards her, which contained some of his father's memories, specifically about that Tang Jian.

After receiving the ball of spiritual energy and confirming that there were no hidden tricks, Chen Xin extended his own spiritual energy into it to read the memory fragments within.

As Chen Xin continued to read the fragments of memory within, his expression became more excited. Before long, that excitement turned into anger, and even killing intent, which even caused the Seven Kill Domain to fluctuate.

"Martial Soul Palace!"

With a low growl emanating from gritted teeth, and a surge of murderous intent, it was clear that Chen Xin was furious to the extreme.

Tang Zhen watched and waited quietly. After a while, Chen Xin's almost boiling killing intent subsided slightly. His bloodshot eyes stared intently at Tang Zhen, making Tang Zhen's hair stand on end, and he instinctively manifested his martial soul, the Clear Sky Hammer.

With a single step, he instantly appeared in front of Tang Zhen, wielding the Seven Kill Sword to shatter the massive, heavy Haotian Hammer into pieces, then pressing the tip of the sword against Tang Zhen's throat.

"You better not lie to me, otherwise no matter where your Haotian Sect hides, I will find you all and kill you all."

Leaving behind a warning brimming with murderous intent, Chen Xin then flew rapidly towards the Sword Sect on his sword.

"puff!"

Only after Chen Xin left did Tang Zhen finally spit out a mouthful of blood, his face ashen, looking at Chen Xin who had flown away in disbelief and resentment.

He knew that Chen Xin was very strong. On the day of his ascension to the throne on a snowy night, he hadn't been able to find out how Chen Xin had stayed behind them the whole time. At that time, he realized that this Sword Douluo's cultivation level had surpassed his own.

But he never expected the gap between the two to be so huge. His own martial soul, the Clear Sky Hammer, was easily shattered by it, far surpassing the strength of the battle in Tian Dou City back then.

How could he be so strong?

How could they have progressed so quickly?

"What a powerful Seven Kill Sword."

A blood-red figure tore through space and stepped out, gazing at the departing Chen Xin with admiration.

The newcomer was Tang Chen, who had just witnessed everything from the shadows. The strength Chen Xin displayed had shocked him greatly.

Compared to the siege in the City of Slaughter, Chen Xin has become much stronger, almost reaching the level of a hundred-level god, much stronger than when he had not yet passed the Asura God Trial.

The Seven Kill Sword truly lives up to its reputation as the most powerful martial soul, even surpassing the Clear Sky Hammer at the same level.

The main problem is that the Haotian Hammer lacks a talent domain, which is indeed inferior to the Seven Kill Sword.

Even without those self-created soul skills and the divine skill of the Great Sumeru Hammer, the Clear Sky Hammer would not have been able to defeat the Seven Kill Sword before.

"Is he going to become a god?"

Tang Zhen, who had recovered slightly, was filled with resentment and jealousy. He simply couldn't believe that Chen Xin's progress could be so rapid.

"It is impossible for a Soul Master to cultivate to break through to level 100 on their own. That is not just a quantitative change, but a qualitative change."

In the present continent, for a Soul Master to break through to level 100, they either need to gather a massive amount of faith power or obtain a divine inheritance, using divine power and a divine position to transform themselves. It is absolutely impossible to achieve this through self-cultivation alone.

Tang Chen was absolutely certain that Chen Xin could never cultivate into a god, because that was a dead end.

Or rather, apart from those who possess twin martial souls, no one can cultivate to godhood on their own; even those with twin martial souls can only achieve it in theory.

"Father, I want to become a god!"

With his fists clenched tightly, Tang Zhen's desire to become a god grew stronger, and he did not want to experience such a humiliating failure again.

“I have discussed this with Shura Divine Sense. With your qualifications and strength, you can at most bear the position of a second-level god.”

After a moment of silence, he recounted the results of his previous discussions with the Asura Divine Sense.

Tang Zhen, the son, was somewhat lacking in aptitude and strength, at most capable of holding the position of a second-level god. His two grandsons, on the other hand, were better. Hao'er's aptitude was similar to his own, and he could both hold the position of a first-level god. Xiao'er's was somewhat weaker, but if a suitable godship were available, he could still manage to strive for the position of a first-level god.

However, the most important thing is Hao'er's child, who is the person chosen by the God of Asura and will surely be able to inherit the God of Asura's divine position.

The power of a god-king is far beyond that of other gods, so their most important mission now is to protect that child until he eventually inherits the position of the Asura God and becomes the new generation of the Asura God.

"As long as I can become a god!"

With a look of joy on his face, Tang Zhen knew he had no choice; becoming a god was already a stroke of luck.

"Come with me to the City of Slaughter."

The newly manifested Asura Demon Sword resonated with the new Slaughter City, and with a swing of the sword, it opened a spatial passage and entered. Tang Zhen followed closely behind, arriving at the new Slaughter City.

Compared to the former Killing City, the current Killing City is much smaller. This is a helpless situation, since the former Killing City was originally created by the Rakshasa God and later occupied by the Asura God.

The Rakshasa God was at least a first-level main god back then, and he even had a main divine artifact in his hand, far surpassing Tang Chen.

He brought his son to a huge altar and summoned his eldest grandson, Tang Xiao.

"The Asura God will draw upon the divine power of two of his subordinate gods for you. Be prepared, and whatever happens during this time, you must endure it."

After giving a word of advice, Tang Chen planted the Asura Demon Sword in his hand on the altar. The Asura divine thought in the inheritance mark between his eyebrows was revived, merging with the Asura Demon Sword and resonating with the main body of the God Realm, opening up a passage.

Soon, a crimson beam of light tore through space and descended, enveloping Tang Zhen and his two generations of descendants. Inside, there were two more beams of light, each radiating a different divine power.

Two beams of divine power enveloped Tang Zhen and his son Tang Xiao, converging on their foreheads, where two marks of different shapes gradually took form.

That is the mark of God's inheritance, which only the inheritor can possess, apart from the inheritor's guardian.

Just as the inheritance mark was about to take shape, the divine power enveloping Tang Zhen seemed to sense something and decisively withdrew, even taking back the inheritance mark that was about to take shape.

The other inheritance mark that enveloped Tang Xiao hesitated for a moment, then withdrew, leaving the three generations of grandfather, grandfather, and grandson bewildered.

"Father?"

"grandfather?"

Tang Zhen and his son Tang Xiao looked at Tang Chen, not understanding what was going on.

However, Tang Chen was also completely bewildered. He quickly communicated with the Asura Divine Sense within the inheritance mark to ask what was going on, but the Asura Divine Sense was equally bewildered.

"The other side should give us a reply soon."

That was all the Asura's divine sense could say; he could only wait for a response from his physical body.

Although one can communicate with the main body, it requires a large amount of divine power.

Although a lot of divine power was brought back when Tang Chen was rescued, Tang Chen was such a useless bastard that he was a real pain in the neck. Last time, the guardian of the Angel God's legacy stole two Asura Demon Swords from him.

You have to understand that it was formed by condensing Asura divine power and a portion of primordial power. He doesn't have much energy left now, so he has to use it sparingly.

At the same time, the Asura God in the God Realm was equally bewildered, staring at his two henchmen with a puzzled look.

He intends to pass on his two second-level godhood positions to Tang Zhen and Tang Xiao to strengthen the Haotian Sect and serve as their protectors, lest they be killed before they even have a chance to grow up.

There was no other way; Tang Chen was too useless. He was constantly being suppressed and beaten by the guardians of the Angel God's legacy, which made him lose face. The power below had to be strengthened.

But they had clearly agreed on this before, so why did these two little brothers suddenly withdraw their divine power?

"Your Majesty, a kind of genius called a prodigy has emerged in the human world of the Dragon God Plane. Your subordinate wishes to select a prodigy as a successor."

The God of Slaughter, Xiu Pros, forced himself to speak. When he used his divine power to bestow the inheritance earlier, he took a look at the human's memories and found that he was incredibly weak. He was constantly being beaten by opponents of the same level, and his martial soul had even been shattered just now.

If that thing were chosen as the successor, people would laugh themselves to death.

Punothes, the god of slaughter, was at least a second-level god with considerable influence, and his combat power was not much weaker than that of a first-level god. Therefore, the successor he chose could not be a useless person.

"Your subordinate agrees with the God of Slaughter."

The God of War beside him replied respectfully. He had also glanced at the human's memories earlier and found that his aptitude in that plane was far from top-tier, incomparable to those geniuses.

He had some hesitation at first, but seeing that even the God of Slaughter had run away decisively, he had no choice but to run away as well.

"..."

The God of Asura fell silent. Although these were his henchmen, he couldn't really force them to choose a successor they didn't like. He could only blame those two humans for being too useless.

As for the prodigies who appeared in the human world of the Dragon God Plane, he knew some of them from Tang Chen's memories; they were indeed very outstanding.

Especially that little guy who appeared in the City of Slaughter last time, who independently comprehended the God of Slaughter Domain from the Slaughter Domain and developed it to near perfection, was a genius by the current standards of humans in the Dragon God Plane. Unfortunately, he was tricked to death by that guy Tang Chen.

"You may all leave!"

After a long silence, the Asura God gestured for his two henchmen to leave first, as he couldn't force them to do anything about it.

"Your subordinate takes his leave!"

After bowing to each other, the God of Slaughter and the God of War left the temple together.

"waste!"

After the two henchmen left, the God of Asura couldn't help but curse, "Tang Chen is a piece of trash, and his children and grandchildren are also trash. They even offered him a divine position but couldn't keep it. What good are you trash?"

"A level two god won't do, so we'll have to find a suitable level three god, and we also need to find a way to strengthen those two useless ones."

With a gloomy sigh, the God of Asura had no choice but to lower his standards.

There are not many second-level gods in the divine realm, only a little over two hundred, and they are all assigned to the five great god kings. He only has forty-five under his own command.

Some of them, tired of life in the divine realm, could guide others to pass on their divine positions, but most did not want to. The God of Slaughter and the God of War, two second-level gods, were among the few who were willing to pass on their divine positions.

Although several other second-level gods also intended to pass on their divine positions, their divine attributes did not match those of the two below them.

Since neither the God of Slaughter nor the God of War has taken a liking to those two, we can only look for them at the level of third-level gods.

Suppressing his frustration, the Asura God stepped out to the central hub of the God Realm, where the other four God Kings were still expending their divine power to repair the shattered central hub.

Compared to its shattered state a few days ago, it is much better now. However, the cracks on it have not yet disappeared, and the crisis is still there. The four god-kings need to continue to infuse divine power to repair it.

"The Rakshasa God's divine position was pulled down a few days ago. Which plane was it from?"

When the Evil God King saw the Asura God arrive, he casually asked a question.

The Rakshasa God was a first-level main god under his command. Although the Rakshasa God's body had perished, the god's position was still considered to be on his side. A few days ago, he sensed that the Rakshasa God's position had been pulled away from the divine realm, which should mean that a successor had been found.

One day in the divine realm is equivalent to one year in the mortal realm, so several years should have passed below.
