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

"The Douluo Continent isn't that different from our world. At least it's still dominated by humans, not some other thing."

Ji Dong and Lie Yan, now in their new positions, are tasked with resolving the problems left behind by their predecessors.

"Is the Cult of Destruction really the abode of the God of Destruction? Isn't that a bit too obvious? Could it be a trap?" Blazing Flame asked.

"These are the last hints given to us by our two seniors, so they shouldn't be fake. Besides, with the two of us working together, even if there's a trap, we should be able to escape without much trouble."

"Don't be careless. The three God-Kings of the Divine Realm also thought they were invincible when they conquered the Underworld, but what happened?"

"You're right, I'll definitely pay attention, okay?"

Ji Dong felt that the Church of Destruction was just using the name of the God of Destruction, and that the God of Destruction was more likely hiding somewhere else.

After all, a powerful plane like the Underworld can't be everywhere. Could the God of Destruction really join forces with the Underworld?
The Cult of Destruction is located in the deep mountains more than a hundred miles away from the former Martial Soul City. When Ji Dong and Lie Yan first arrived here, the God of Destruction, who was in the cave, sensed their presence.

"Evil and good? No, that's not right. It's not the evil and good of the past. They actually passed down their divine positions, at a time when the divine realm is weak?"

Although the God of Destruction was blinded by hatred, he refused to return to the God Realm and remained on the Douluo Continent, even wanting to completely destroy this plane.

But in his heart, he still had deep feelings for the divine realm and did not want anything to happen to it.

Now that the old god-king has resigned and two new people have taken over, and the god of destruction even thinks they are new people who were forced into the position, does the god realm still have a future?

The God of Destruction cursed his predecessors, both evil and good, in his mind. He had his reasons for leaving the divine realm, but these two were simply irresponsible.

Honestly, even the God of Destruction wants to return to the realm of gods to take charge.

"Let's see what kind of quality these two newcomers are. Sigh, I'm not even in the God Realm anymore, but I still have to worry about the God Realm."

"The cultivation system of Douluo Continent is really interesting. It's all based on creatures like soul beasts. If there were no soul beasts, wouldn't this plane completely become a low-level plane where cultivation is impossible?"

"High-level soul beasts have disappeared, and perhaps the soul masters of Douluo Continent will become worse with each generation."

"Wait, I sense the aura of the God of Destruction."

As Ji Dong and Lie Yan were talking, they suddenly sensed that the entire mountain range was enveloped in a barely perceptible yet incredibly powerful force field.

Only the God of Destruction could unleash a force field of this magnitude.

Good news! The God of Destruction is quite straightforward; he actually lives here with the Cult of Destruction.

The bad news is that the God of Destruction is very powerful. Even if Ji Dong and Lie Yan join forces, it won't be easy for them to defeat him.

"Whoo~"

Ji Dong breathed a sigh of relief. Since he was already here, retreating without a fight was not in his nature.

"Senior Destruction, your juniors Ji Dong and Lie Yan have just succeeded to the positions of God of Evil and God of Good, and have come to pay our respects."

Ji Dong made no attempt to hide his identity and revealed it directly.

He believed that if he could sense the God of Destruction, then the other party would surely be able to detect their arrival. If he still intended to hide himself now, it would be tantamount to burying his head in the sand.

Inside the cave, the God of Destruction slowly opened his eyes, and the dark space was instantly covered by lightning, becoming bright.

The dazzling lightning even penetrated the cave's barrier, shining out so that Ji Dong and Lie Yan could see it clearly.

"Strong, unbelievably powerful. The God of Destruction seems to be much stronger than the two seniors said."

Ji Dong felt that things were getting very difficult, and it seemed unlikely that he would achieve his goal today.

"What's going on? Is Lord God of Destruction angry?" It's hard to say what happened to Ji Dong and Lie Yan, but Dugu Bo was clearly frightened.

He pondered for a long time, concluding that he hadn't done anything outrageous enough to anger the God of Destruction to the point of wanting to kill him.

Dugu Bo was trembling with fear, but the God of Destruction didn't come here at all; instead, he went directly to see Ji Dong and Lie Yan.

"Have you inherited the divine positions of evil and good?"

The God of Destruction looked down at Ji Dong and Lie Yan with the air of an elder.

Ji Dong and Lie Yan didn't act cleverly; instead, they slightly improved the God of Destruction's impression of them. At least they weren't completely forced into their godhood; they genuinely possessed some ability.

"Yes, we were fortunate enough to be chosen by our senior and passed on our divine positions."

The God of Destruction glanced indifferently at Ji Dong, who was speaking. Although he was still dissatisfied with the actions of the former God of Evil and God of Goodness, he was not completely disappointed.

"Since you bear the heavy responsibility of being God-Kings, return to the God Realm immediately. The God Realm needs to manage many lower realms and cannot be without a God-King overseeing it for a long time."

"What Senior Destruction says is true. Since you understand this principle, please return to the God Realm with us."

Ji Dong didn't directly break off relations, but instead subtly suggested that the God of Destruction return with them.

"Ok?"

The God of Destruction's expression suddenly turned stern, his eyes filled with lightning that seemed capable of piercing through people.

"I have already given you two juniors enough face. You should return to the God Realm immediately and fulfill the God King's duties. I can let bygones be bygones. If you dare to push your luck, don't blame me for bullying the younger ones."

Ji Dong and Lie Yan remained fearless, not in the slightest overwhelmed by the powerful aura displayed by the God of Destruction.

Ji Dong remained composed and dignified, saying:
"When our two predecessors passed on their divine positions to us, they instructed us to 'invite' the God-King of Destruction back to the divine realm. We cannot disobey the mission entrusted to us by our two predecessors, so..."

As he spoke, Ji Dong raised his voice slightly.

"So if the God of Destruction disagrees, we have no choice but to offend him."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Dong and Lie Yan unleashed their auras, colliding with the force field of the God of Destruction.

Ji Dong and Lie Yan joined forces, and although they had only recently become God Kings, they were still not at a disadvantage in terms of momentum.

The God of Destruction had a frosty expression, but he wasn't actually that angry inside.

Because he had always been a principled god, even though Ji Dong and Lie Yan were offending him, the God of Destruction felt more appreciative of them.

Of course, admiring him is one thing, but getting him to agree to return to the God Realm with Ji Dong is another.

"In that case, let's see how much of your evil and good abilities you've mastered."

While a civil war is about to break out in the realm of gods, turmoil is also brewing in the underworld.

After completely devouring the Abyss Plane, the Underworld Plane is now completely intact and much more powerful.

The underworld is no longer a small, scattered entity; it is now a powerful and formidable force.

The awe-inspiring deities of the underworld stood solemnly amidst the densely packed army of the dead and the blood-soaked Asura soldiers.

All the gods looked up at the powerful figure they could only look up to, waiting for his command so that the underworld army could march into the realm of gods.
