Douluo Continent: The Ten Kings of Hell, I am the Emperor of the Underworld

Chapter 153 A Test Across Time and Space, the Power of the Underworld

Where is the Lord of the Five Directions of Purgatory?

The divine realm still had the advantage in numbers, and Ning Qiuyang continued to call for reinforcements.

"The Lord of the Ten Thousand Bones Purgatory is here."

"The Lord of the Sword and Blade Purgatory is here."

"The Lord of the Frozen Purgatory is here."

"The Lord of the Fiery Purgatory is here."

"The Lord of the Beast Purgatory is here."

The phantom images of five people—Gu Rong, Chen Xin, Xue Di, Na'er, and Gu Yue—appeared simultaneously.

They had not yet fully perfected the Five Directions Purgatory, nor had they officially become gods; they were summoned by Ning Qiuyang using the power of the underworld.

The Snow Empress did not appear alone; she was accompanied by an Ice Empress, who also possessed a divine inheritance and belonged to the Frozen Purgatory.

Five more phantom images of gods appeared, and the divine realm became even more serious.

Especially after seeing Gu Yue and Na'er appear, they were on high alert.

Although the Silver Dragon King was split in two, her life essence remained unchanged, and these gods of the divine realm recognized her as the Silver Dragon King at a glance.

They were no strangers to this kind of splitting-in scene; even the Dragon God could split into the Silver Dragon King and the Golden Dragon King, so what was so strange about the Silver Dragon King splitting again?

The fear of the Soul Beast race, or rather, the fear of the Dragon race, is a consensus among almost all the gods in the God Realm.

They were both surprised and furious to discover that the Silver Dragon King had actually appeared on Ning Qiuyang's side.

They set up heavenly tribulations specifically for soul beasts to weaken their strength as much as possible and eliminate the possibility of them becoming gods.

Unexpectedly, these soul beasts failed to become gods in the God Realm and were instead absorbed into the Underworld. Even the Silver Dragon King was recruited.

Besides the Silver Dragon King, they could also see that the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress were also soul beasts, which shows that the Silver Dragon King was definitely not the only exception in the underworld to allow soul beasts to become gods.

Many gods in the divine realm are deeply worried, fearing that the underworld will become a base for soul beasts to accumulate power and seek revenge against the divine realm.

With this in mind, many gods crossed space and poured more power from the divine realm into the projection, determined to suppress Ning Qiuyang's arrogance.

"It's been such a long time no see."

Gu Yue and Na'er stared intently at the gods of the divine realm, many of whom had the blood of dragons on their hands.

Gu Yuena joined the underworld largely because she wanted to take revenge on the divine realm one day, but she never expected that the underworld would clash with the divine realm so soon.

After Gu Yue Na split into Gu Yue and Na'er, although their individual powers were not as great as in their complete state, they were nourished by the divine position. After their separation, the severe injuries they had suffered when they were together were largely healed, and they also gained additional power.

Gu Yuena's divine power was among the best even in the God Realm. Gu Yue inherited the vast majority of Gu Yuena's divine power, so he was naturally extraordinary.

In this kind of projection confrontation, her divine sense can play a significant role.

"Everyone, we must completely overwhelm them at this time, otherwise the majesty of our divine realm will surely be destroyed."

The Asura God addressed the other gods.

"I come."

A majestic deity with red hair and a red beard.

A surge of fire energy spread out, engulfing Ning Qiuyang.

"Haha, it just happened to bump into my hand."

Na'er laughed out loud, and with a wave of her small hand, fire-attribute energy surged forth.

She has not yet officially become the Lord of the Fiery Purgatory, but with the blessing of the power of the underworld, she briefly grasped the power of this divine position.

Na'er and the God of Fire from the God Realm, whose true forms were not on Douluo Continent, fought a battle across time and space.

In the sky, fire-attribute energy erupted. A surging crimson color appeared in the heavens, like a spectacular volcanic eruption.

These fire-attribute energies are well controlled and will not suddenly become strong and pour down, causing devastation to the Douluo Continent.

Outside the Papal Palace, some fire-attribute soul masters felt the overflowing fire-attribute energy, and their soul power increased rapidly.

This excited many fire-attribute soul masters, as it was a godsend.

It's said that when gods fight, mortals suffer, but this is clearly a case of gods fighting and mortals benefit.

Soul Masters of other attributes all cast envious glances.

If they start fighting, even more gods will start fighting, and maybe it will be the turn of these other elemental soul masters.

However, soon, several greedy fire-attribute soul masters, wanting to absorb as much of this hard-won fire-attribute energy as possible, found their own soul power beginning to surge violently.

Although these fire-attribute energies are pure, they are, after all, the power that spilled out from the battle between the God of Fire and the Lord of the Fiery Purgatory from a distance.

Absorbing less will indeed increase their soul power.

However, if they absorb too much, the pure fire elemental energy will become volatile, causing their soul power to gradually boil.

In milder cases, it's just a bit uncomfortable, but in severe cases, the person might even spontaneously combust and burn themselves to ashes.

Fortunately, the fire-attribute soul masters here hadn't completely lost their minds, and seeing that things were going badly, they quickly stopped absorbing the fire element.

So although some people are completely red, as if they are on fire, there have been no cases of spontaneous combustion so far.

In the exchange of blows between Na'er and Vulcan, Na'er actually gained a slight advantage.

On one hand, she received more power from the underworld; on the other hand, her original life level was higher than that of the God of Fire, so even after the split, she brought the ability to control the fire element with her.

Furthermore, his divine position as the Lord of the Fiery Purgatory grants him a control over flames that is even slightly superior to that of the God of Fire.

On the divine side, two more deities stepped forward.

They are the God of Ice and the God of War, respectively.

It's not that neither side is willing to rush in, but rather that they are projections, not their true forms. If too many divine projections attack together, they will interfere with each other.

Xue Di stepped forward naturally.

She could sense the divine aura of the God of Ice, and as the lord of the Ice Purgatory, she had an unshirkable responsibility to deal with him.

This God of War in the divine realm, despite having the title of God of War, is only a second-level god.

Just as Chen Xin was about to make a move, Gu Rong said:
"let me."

The clash of ice attributes and the contest of fighting spirit unfolded in an instant.

This time, it was the ice-attribute soul masters who benefited.

However, having learned from the mistakes of fire-attribute soul masters, ice-attribute soul masters knew when to stop and never tried to take more.

Ning Qiuyang looked towards the God Realm, where the number of gods still far exceeded that on his side.

He once again mobilized the power of the underworld and unleashed a grand summoning spell.

This time, not only Ning Rongrong, Dugu Yan, Zhu Zhuyun, and Zhu Zhuqing, who are the inheritors of the divine positions, but even those divine positions that have not yet welcomed an inheritor, were mobilized by Ning Qiuyang.

One by one, divine projections appeared behind him. Although many of them were rather illusory and their specific appearances were almost impossible to discern, their sheer number surpassed that of the divine realm.

Moreover, unlike the divine realm where only gods exist, the army of the dead appeared behind Ning Qiuyang and other underworld gods, forming a battle formation to protect them.

Moreover, with the formation of the Myriad Souls Array, the divine positions that did not yet have successors also became much more solidified.

"This..." the God of Kindness exclaimed in surprise, "How can a plane that is not yet fully formed already possess such power?"
