Douluo: Starting from the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon

Chapter 435 Secrets of the Divine Realm
"No, I dislike leaving behind trouble, while you have the ability to create trouble, so you must die."

As he spoke, Lin Rong waved his hand, conjuring an hourglass, and said:
"Time is limited. You only have three minutes to consider. If you haven't made a choice by the time all the sand in the hourglass has run out, then I'll have to ask the First Asura God in the God Realm later."

The Rakshasa God of Thought watched the sand continuously leaking from the hourglass, and made a choice after half of the sand had leaked out.

"You guessed right. Whether it was the fall of my own body or the death of the first Angel God, it was all inextricably linked to the first Asura God."

"Among the gods of the divine realm, there are thirty-two primordial gods who condensed their divine positions."

"My original form, the first Rakshasa God, has a similar divine authority to the Asura God, except that the Asura God's authority is stronger and can suppress the Rakshasa God's authority."

"Because of the similarity in authority, the first Rakshasa God inevitably took away some of the divine authority of the first Asura God."

"This is why the first Asura God attacked my true form."

"As for the first angel, her authority included light, fire, and judgment."

"Light and fire alone have taken away some of the divine authority of the God of Light and the God of Fire among the seven elemental gods, not to mention that the power of judgment has also taken away some of the divine authority of the five law enforcement gods."

"Think about it, I only took a portion of the divine power from the God of Asura, and it led to my downfall. The first Angel God took a portion of the divine power from the seven great gods. How could those gods possibly tolerate her existence?"

"Besides my own body and the first Angel God, even the first Thor and the first Cupid fell in the same way."

"Thor's authority contains both destruction and life, which overlaps with the life and destruction of two of the five great law enforcement gods. Although the goddess of love does not have authority that overlaps with other gods, she and Thor are husband and wife."

"Husband and wife are one. If Thor falls, how can Cupid remain unscathed?"

"Therefore, this is why, among the thirty-two first-generation gods of the divine realm, only my true self, the first-generation angel god, the first-generation thunder god, and the first-generation love god perished."

"The reason why these four gods perished was that the God of Thunder and the God of Love died unexpectedly in this Douluo plane. The five law enforcement gods asked the Angel God to investigate the matter. Unsurprisingly, all the clues pointed to my true self, the first Rakshasa God who had a long-standing grudge against the Angel God."

"The ridiculous thing is that until I dragged the angel god down with me, I still thought that this was the angel god's son settling a personal score."

"Now it seems that neither my true self nor the first Angel God were merely pawns being used. This was all a scheme orchestrated by the gods."

"First, I secretly killed Thor and Cupid, then fabricated clues at the scene of the incident, and then put Angel God in charge of the matter. My true self has a long-standing grudge against Angel God, so even if there are many doubts about the clues, I will inevitably be questioned."

"When two gods with a long-standing grudge come together, and they are in the roles of interrogator and interrogated, it's easy to imagine what will happen."

"And so the thing the gods most wanted to see happened: my true self had a verbal altercation with the Angel God, which escalated into a conflict, then into a battle, and finally into a life-or-death struggle, resulting in our mutual destruction."

"What happened next... I don't need to say more, do I?"

Lin Rong remained silent, silently processing what the Rakshasa's divine thoughts had revealed.

Although the old saying goes that one cannot believe everything one side of the story, the truth of this matter should be very close to what the Rakshasa God thought described.

Moreover, we know from the original work that this was indeed something the first Asura God could do, which greatly increases its feasibility.

"No wonder you eroded the Slaughter City left by the God of Asura on Douluo Continent. So this kind of thing happened before."

"Are you so sure the Asura God won't bother with such a trivial matter? Aren't you afraid he might destroy your divine sense if he gets upset?" "Uh, well..." The Rakshasa divine sense suddenly stammered, saying:
"Actually, this residual divine thought of mine was separated from the main body a long time ago and used to erode the killing city left by the Asura God in Douluo Continent."

"After all, how could my true self be so powerful as to be able to send a portion of my divine consciousness to lurk in the City of Slaughter under the watchful eyes of the gods of the divine realm? That's impossible!"

After hearing this, Lin Rong was somewhat speechless, but this explanation made things seem more reasonable.

"Oh, so you had a way of courting death. No wonder you're the first Asura God. If it were me, I would have destroyed your divine thought long ago."

"Now that I've said that, you can go in peace."

As soon as he finished speaking, the power of destruction erupted from the Scepter of Destruction.

Before the Rakshasa divine thought even had a chance to speak, it was instantly and completely annihilated by the black destructive energy.

"Indeed, the struggle for power is inevitable everywhere, even in the realm of gods, it is just as vulgar."

So-called gods are nothing more than people who are powerful enough to reach a certain level; such things are inevitable for any human being.

After annihilating the Rakshasa's divine will, Lin Rong did not immediately set off to find the Asura God and the Earth God, who had only recently become gods.

Killing both the God of War Golden Crocodile and the Rakshasa God Bibi Dong in one night had consumed a considerable amount of soul power and energy. To avoid being caught off guard, it would be best to rest and recuperate.

Meanwhile, after Lin Rong and the old steward returned to the border fortress, they gathered their important subordinates around them to prevent the two newly-gods from acting rashly and doing something irrational.

As it turned out, his fears were not unfounded.

Du Huang and Xu Chenhuan arrived together and immediately unleashed a Shura sword aura at the fortress, but it was neutralized by a ray of light sword aura unleashed by the old steward wielding the Angelic Holy Sword.

Lin Rong didn't say anything about this, but simply released the people from the Body Sect inside the fortress.

As soon as they went out, they started talking non-stop, recounting every detail of their experiences over the past few days, completely unaware that the old man standing next to his sect leader was getting increasingly worried as he listened.

"Sect Master, in tonight's pursuit, we killed three more members of the Star Crown Sect..."

Snapped!
Enraged to the extreme, Xu Chenhuan swung his hand without saying a word and smashed the head of the person from the Body Sect who was speaking.

It was only now that Du Huang suddenly remembered that the old sect master of the Star Crown Sect was standing next to him.

To say to this person in front of them how many Star Crown Sect members you've killed is practically suicide.

However, although they were in the wrong.

But life and death are predestined on the battlefield. They can't blame others. If they don't kill the other side, are they supposed to let the other side kill them?

Moreover, the Body Sect's protective nature meant that Du Huang would not let the matter rest, especially since he committed the crime right in front of him. Where would that leave the sect leader's face?

"Old guy, you're looking for death!"
