Douluo: Phoenix God Descends, Emperor Flame Burns the Sky

Chapter 667 The Divine Realm Committee Welcomes the God of Asura

Wisps of mist floated between heaven and earth, and a huge and majestic temple hung in the air above the clouds, shimmering with a faint golden light under the glow of the divine realm.

The world is filled with rich spiritual energy; a single breath can extend a mortal's life by ten years—this is divine power.

If one cultivates here, the speed of an ordinary Soul Master will increase by more than a hundred times. Of course, the purity of the divine power will far exceed that of a Soul Master's Soul Power.

The vast majority of Soul Masters do not have the ability to digest divine power.

Inside the magnificent temple, a round, jade-white table is flanked by four deities with different hair colors and attire.

These are the four great god-kings who rule the divine realm: the god of evil, the god of destruction, the goddess of kindness, and the goddess of life.

The young man, dressed in a long black robe, had short black hair, his eyes were filled with a sinister charm, and the corners of his lips unconsciously turned up. He didn't seem like a good person; to use a trendy term, he was a roguishly handsome man.

It was none other than the Evil God King.

Beside him, dressed in a white robe, was a woman with long, fiery red hair, an exquisitely beautiful and gentle face, and a pure temperament. She was the kind goddess and wife of the evil god-king.

Across the table sat a man shrouded in a large purple cloak, his features obscured, radiating an aura of endless destruction—the God King of Destruction.

The woman beside him, however, was the complete opposite. She wore a light green dress, had a gentle face, and was enveloped in a faint golden glow. Just by getting close, one could feel her vibrant energy.

She is the wife of the God of Destruction, the God of Life.

The position of chairman of the Divine Realm Council is vacant.

The Asura God-King, who should have been here, left the God Realm ten years ago after passing on his divine position, to explore more distant star fields.

The God of Destruction frowned and snorted coldly.

"This new Asura God-King is really something else. He ascended to the God Realm not just by himself, but also with a total of eight gods, all of whom are first-level gods."

"And in my vast divine realm, there are currently eighteen first-level gods, two hundred and sixteen second-level gods, one thousand eight hundred and forty-seven third-level gods, and about ten thousand ordinary priests and heavenly hunters."

"This Asura God-King is truly remarkable. He has already formed factions before even entering the God Realm. With such a foundation, who will be in charge of the God Realm Committee in the future?"

The God of Destruction's words clearly carried his dissatisfaction with Lin Xiao.

The other god-kings reacted differently upon hearing this.

The goddess of life exclaimed in surprise:
"The Douluo World is just a small world, how could it have such a fortunate encounter that gave birth to so many gods?"

The Goddess of Kindness replied:
"Among these deities, half of them are inherited from the divine realm, which is not an exaggeration. However, the newly promoted Goddess of Fertility and God of Plague are quite remarkable. The Goddess of Fertility actually created her own divine position, and she has many methods."

"The God of Plague is not on the list of gods in the divine realm. I have never heard of him, but he does not seem to be a god in my divine realm either."

The Way of the Evil God King:
"That's fine. After all, the Asura God is the law enforcement god of the divine realm, in charge of judgment. It's good that he can bring some manpower with him."

"Moreover, the arrival of these deities has also injected fresh blood into the divine realm."

The God of Destruction's eyes flickered.

He said:

"I'm afraid the divine realm cannot accommodate so many gods."

"Things are fine for now, but in the worlds below, there are always outstanding talents who have the qualifications to become gods. One day, the divine realm will be overcrowded."

The Evil God King understood the Destruction God King's meaning. The Destruction God King was very concerned about the God Realm and had an aggressive personality, always wanting to establish a God Realm.

However, while creating a divine realm could accommodate more deities, it could also cause instability within the divine realm, thus giving external evil gods an opportunity to take advantage.

"Destruction and such matters should wait until the God of Asura arrives in the God Realm, and after he has adapted to the God Realm and become familiar with the authority of the God of Asura, then we can convene a God Realm Committee at a later time," the Evil God King suggested, offering a moderate suggestion.

The God of Destruction said:

"After all, the Asura God has only recently become a god and may not be able to govern the many affairs of the God Realm. In my opinion, it would be better to wait until he adapts to the God Realm before incorporating him into our God Realm Committee."

This clearly means that Lin Xiao has just become a god and does not yet have the ability to take over all the authority of the previous Asura God.

Naturally, it could only be entrusted to the other four great god-kings to take charge.

However, it is unknown whether the authority will be intact when it is handed over to the Asura God-King again.

The direct consequence is that the new Asura God King will certainly not have as much power as the previous Asura God King.

Upon hearing this, the Evil God King fell into deep thought. He raised his head, glanced at Destruction, and hesitated before saying:
"In the realm of gods, the powers and responsibilities of each deity are clearly defined."

"The old Shura God must have also informed the new Shura God about the affairs under the Shura God's command."

"If we do that, wouldn't it make the new Asura God dissatisfied? In that case, it would be detrimental to the harmony of the God Realm Committee."

The God of Destruction said calmly:
"It's not like we're not going to pay him back."

"How about this."

"Old Ren, the God of Asura, seemed to have a high opinion of the new God of Asura, even to the point of being too trusting, and left the God Realm without even handing over power."

"Why not let my subordinate gods test the foundation of this new Asura God, and then return these powers to him once he has the strength to match that of a God-King?"

After a moment of silence, the matter was settled.

……

He returned to his palace.

The God of Destruction wore a purple cloak, but still wore a purple robe, and his hair was also an eerie purple, giving him a cold demeanor.

The God of Life couldn't help but advise him.

"Destruction, isn't that a bad thing to do?"

"After all, the Asura God King is one of the five great God Kings, and even the chief of my God Realm Committee. It seems you are targeting him."

The God of Destruction was cold and aloof to everyone, giving off an impression that he would kill you if you looked at him too closely.

Only when facing the God King of Life did he show a rare gentleness, and said softly:
"life."

"It's because the previous Asura King always went against me that I must not repeat the same mistake this time."

"The most important thing for the Divine Council is to maintain balance, not to let any one deity dominate."

"That's fine. You shouldn't have gotten involved in these things. Just pretend you know nothing about them. I'll handle everything."

As the God of Destruction spoke, he couldn't help but shake the hand of the God of Life to offer comfort.

The God-King of Life sighed.

She was, after all, the wife of the God of Destruction. Even if she didn't support her husband's decision in her heart, she couldn't very well stand up and oppose it to his face.

I can only pretend I don't know...
