Upon hearing this, the Goddess of Life nodded slightly and said:
"Tang Chuan has now inherited the position of the Sea God, and is therefore qualified to enter the God Realm. Moreover, he has completed the eighth trial of the Asura God and gained the recognition of a portion of the Asura Demon Sword's essence."
"In a sense, he has already formed an inseparable connection with the divine realm. In that case, instead of continuing to send people down to the mortal realm to besiege him, it would be better to let him complete his final test."

The God of Kindness whispered:
"As long as he inherits the position of the Asura God and becomes the enforcer of the God Realm, he will no longer be just the Sea God of Douluo Continent, but also the enforcer of the God Realm."
"At that time, whether he wants to protect Douluo Continent or stop the God Realm from interfering in the affairs of the lower realm, he can resolve the matter within the rules of the God Realm."
"At least, we won't have to resort to arms like we do now."
Upon hearing this, the god of wrath could no longer contain himself.
"But what about Greed and Gluttony? They're still lying in the Pool of Original Sin, their divine essence nearly shattered by the Asura Demon Sword!"
"Tang Chuan injured them so badly, is it possible that the God Realm will not only not pursue the matter, but will instead give him the Asura Godhood?"
The god of evil turned and glanced at him.
"Give it to him?"
"Do you think the position of God-King can be inherited by just anyone? Tang Chuan's ability to complete the first eight trials of the Asura God already proves that he is qualified to stand here."
"Moreover, this battle was initiated by your seven original sin gods who voluntarily descended to the mortal realm in an attempt to forcibly bring him back to the divine realm."
"As a result, the seven of you joined forces, but not only did you fail, you were defeated by him."
"If this matter is truly investigated, it's likely that there's still no definitive conclusion as to who is right and who is wrong."
The god of wrath's face darkened.
"Is it wrong for us to act on the orders of the gods?"
"You were ordered to bring him back to the God Realm, but you were not allowed to launch a divine war on the Douluo Continent at all costs."
The God of Evil said calmly:
"The combined power of the seven of you first-level deities descending at the same time is enough to severely damage the entire plane."
"If Tang Chuan hadn't lured the battlefield to the depths of the sea, countless people would have died on the Douluo Continent. If we're really going to investigate who's responsible, you won't be able to escape the blame either."
Upon hearing this, the five original sin gods fell silent.
Although they were still unwilling, they could not refute it.
The God of Destruction slowly tapped the armrest of his throne.
A cold light flashed in his purple eyes.
"Tang Chuan is indeed a threat."
"He is not under the control of the divine realm, yet he harbors deep suspicion towards it."
"But that's precisely why we should try to bring him to the realm of gods."
"If someone who possesses the divine position of the Sea God and can wield the Asura Demon Sword were to completely stand against the divine realm, the trouble they would bring would be far greater than what we see today."
"But what if he were willing to join the realm of gods..."
The God of Destruction paused for a moment.
"Then he will become the sharpest sword in the realm of gods."
The God of Wrath gritted his teeth and said:
"Even if he's willing to inherit the Asura God's position, how can we guarantee he'll stand on the side of the gods?"
"A divine position cannot be guaranteed."
The Asura God finally spoke.
"No truly powerful deity would completely obey a person simply because of a divine position. The Asura God position is chosen to be an enforcer, not a puppet."
"If you want to use the Asura Godhood to control Tang Chuan, then there was no need for this negotiation to continue in the first place."
Silence fell upon the temple once more.
Although the words of the Asura God were direct, no one could refute them.
The position of God-King represents not only power, but also the God-King's own will and authority. A person without independent will, who only knows how to obey orders, could not possibly pass the test of the Asura God.
The god of evil nodded slowly.
"We don't need him to obey us completely."
"As long as he acknowledges that he is a member of the divine realm, is willing to abide by the most basic rules of the divine realm, and stands on the side of the divine realm when it really involves the safety of the divine realm, that is enough."
The God of Kindness continued:
"As for Douluo Continent, it can be given sufficient autonomy."
"The God Realm will no longer send deities down to the mortal realm at will, nor will it interfere in the internal affairs of the Douluo Continent on trumped-up charges."
"If there are indeed problems that must be addressed, you can discuss them with him first."
The goddess of life smiled slightly.
What Tang Chuan cares about most is the safety of Douluo Continent and the safety of those closely related to him.
"If we make a commitment on these things, he may not necessarily refuse."
The God of Pride said in a deep voice:
"And what about the injuries from greed and gluttony?"
"Are we just going to let it go like this?"
The god of evil looked at him.
"They won't die."
"The Pool of Original Sin can repair their divine bodies, and the Goddess of Life will also help with any damage to their divine essence."
The goddess of life nodded.
"Although their divine positions have been severely damaged, their foundations have not been completely destroyed."
"With a period of rest, it will gradually recover."
Hearing this, even though the God of Pride was still dissatisfied, he could not say anything more.
The God of Destruction looked at the God of Asura.
"Now that he has completed the eighth test, what remains for the final test?"
"The original ninth test was to receive the complete power of the Asura God, gain the recognition of the entire origin of the Asura Demon Sword, and assume the responsibilities borne by the Asura God."
The Asura God slowly said:
"However, with Tang Chuan's current strength and willpower, the final test is no longer too difficult for him."
"The real question is whether he is willing to inherit it."
A glint of light flashed in the eyes of the evil god.
"That makes it even simpler."
"We will use the inheritance of the Asura God's position as a negotiating condition."
"As long as he is willing to stand on the side of the divine realm and acknowledge his identity as a law enforcer of the divine realm, he can directly begin the ninth trial."
"It could even exempt him from other unnecessary trials, allowing him to directly receive the divine throne."
The God of Kindness pondered for a moment, then nodded.
"That's fine too."
"Tang Chuan had already passed the first eight tests, proving his qualifications. The core of the final test was to gain the recognition of the Asura God and assume the responsibilities that belong to the Asura God."
"If he is willing to join the realm of gods, this condition will already be largely met."
The goddess of life also agreed.
"At the same time, we can guarantee the safety of those he cares about."
"As long as they do not actively violate the rules of the divine realm, the divine realm will not take action against them."
"Tang Chuan can also bring those around him who have reached the god level into the god realm."
The God of Destruction remained silent for a moment.
Finally, he nodded slowly.
"Can."
"However, he must understand that after inheriting the position of the Asura God, he will be the enforcer of the God Realm. He can protect the Douluo Continent, but he cannot only care about the Douluo Continent and completely ignore the God Realm."
"If the realm of gods faces a crisis, he must intervene."
"This is the most basic requirement."
The evil god laughed:
"That's how it should be."
"Then it's decided."
"We will exchange Tang Chuan's position as a god of asura, his seat as an enforcer of the gods, and the autonomy of the Douluo Continent for the gods."
"As long as he is willing to stand on the side of the God Realm, he can directly complete the ninth trial of the Asura God and inherit the position of the Asura God."
The god of kindness, the goddess of life, and the god of destruction all nodded in agreement.
The Asura God looked at everyone and remained silent for a moment.
Then he raised his right hand.
The Asura Demon Sword then emitted a long, drawn-out sword cry.
A dark red sword light shot into the sky from the sword, piercing through the central hub of the God Realm and extending towards the distant Douluo Continent.
"Since you've already made your decision..."
"Then I will speak with him myself."
……
Douluo Continent.
Poseidon Island.
After the battle with the Seven Deadly Sins, Tang Chuan did not immediately return to the Heaven Dou Empire.
Although he won the battle, he also paid a considerable price.
At the same time, he activated the Trident of the Sea God and the Demon Sword of Asura. Especially since he had not inherited the position of the God of Asura, forcibly mobilizing the source of the Demon Sword of Asura put a great burden on his divine body.
At this moment, Tang Chuan was sitting cross-legged in the deepest part of the Sea God Temple.
The Trident of Neptune rests horizontally on his knees.
Rings of blue-gold divine light slowly rotated around his body.
Behind him, the phantom of the Blue Silver Divine Tree appeared and disappeared, and countless blue-gold light spots full of life merged into his body, repairing the injuries left from the previous battle.
On Tang Chuan's left arm, dark red lines slowly wriggled.
That was the residual killing power left in the body after forcibly using the Asura Demon Sword.
These forces did not harm his body.
On the contrary, they are gradually merging into his flesh and soul, making his control over the power of Asura even more profound.
suddenly.
The trident of Neptune, which lay horizontally on his knees, emitted a soft hum.
A dark red light also appeared on Tang Chuan's left palm.
hum!
The Asura Demon Sword appeared on its own.
The dark red sword blade plunged into the ground in front of Tang Chuan.
A crimson beam of light shot into the sky in an instant.
Tang Chuan suddenly opened his eyes.
A blue-gold divine light flashed from his right eye, while a cold, blood-red light appeared in his left eye.
"Who?"
The words fell.
The space inside the Temple of Poseidon suddenly became quiet.
Everything around seemed to be frozen by an invisible force. Whether it was the surging power of the sea god or the swaying phantom of the blue silver divine tree, everything stopped at this moment.
Above the Asura Demon Sword, a tall, blood-red figure slowly materialized.
Her dark red long hair was draped down her back.
He was dressed in blood-red divine armor.
Those icy eyes seemed to contain endless intent to kill and judge.
Tang Chuan's eyes narrowed slightly when he saw the other person's appearance clearly.
"Asura God".
The blood-red figure looked at him calmly.
"Tang Chuan."
"This is the first time we've actually met."
Tang Chuan did not get up. He remained sitting cross-legged in the same spot, his right hand resting on the Trident of the Sea God, while his left hand was less than half a foot away from the Asura Demon Sword.
He can grasp both artifacts at the same time as long as the other party makes the slightest move.
"You've come for the Seven Deadly Sins?"
Tang Chuan asked calmly.
The Asura God glanced at the Asura Demon Sword in front of him.
"They have indeed returned to the realm of the gods."
"Among them, Greed and Gluttony suffered the most severe injuries, and you almost shattered their divine origins."
Tang Chuan remained calm.
"The seven of them teamed up and tried to take me away by force."
"Since you've chosen to attack me, you should be prepared to pay the price."
The Asura God did not refute.
You're right.
Tang Chuan frowned slightly.
He originally thought that the Asura God would question him as a god and even demand an explanation.
Unexpectedly, the other party admitted it so readily.
"If you're not here to seek justice for them, then what are you doing here?"
"negotiation."
The Asura God only uttered two words.
A strange light flashed in Tang Chuan's eyes.
"The divine realm wants to negotiate with me? It seems the defeat of the Seven Deadly Sins has finally made you understand that I am not a lower realm being to be manipulated by you."
The Asura God said calmly:
"You possess the divine position of the Sea God and have completed the first eight trials of the Asura God."
"Whether in terms of strength or status, you are qualified to negotiate with the divine realm."
Tang Chuan looked at the Asura Demon Sword in front of him.
"So, you're finally willing to admit that I've completed the Eighth Trial of Asura?"
"The source of the Asura Demon Sword has already acknowledged you."
"This is an undeniable fact."
The Asura God said:
"Your ability to withstand the power of Asura in the form of the Sea God, and to simultaneously wield the Trident of the Sea God and the Demon Sword of Asura, proves that you are qualified to inherit my divine position."
"Now, only one final exam remains."
Tang Chuan's eyes flickered slightly.
"The Ninth Trial of Asura?"
"good."
The Asura God raised his right hand.
A dark red light condensed in his palm, eventually transforming into a rhombus-shaped blood-red crystal.
Inside the crystal, it seemed to contain an endless mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
Just one glance is enough to feel the terrifying divine pressure contained within.
"This is the key to unlocking the ninth trial of Asura."
"As long as you are willing to accept, you can directly begin the final succession to the divine position."
Tang Chuan did not reach out.
He simply looked at the God of Asura.
"What are the conditions?"
"The divine realm wouldn't send a god-king's throne to me for no reason."
A faint hint of appreciation flashed in the eyes of the Asura God.
He was not blinded by the title of God-King.
They did not lose their basic vigilance just because the position of the Asura God was so close at hand.
Such a mindset is indeed suitable for becoming an Asura God.
"The Divine Realm Council has made a decision."
"As long as you are willing to acknowledge that you are a member of the God Realm and stand on the side of the God Realm when it is truly in crisis, you can directly complete the Ninth Trial of the Asura God."
"After inheriting the position of the Asura God, you will become the new enforcer of the divine realm."
"It possesses authority second only to the Divine Council."
Tang Chuan sneered.
"That sounds nice."
"It's simply that the Seven Deadly Sins can't subdue me, so you want to try a different way to recruit me."
The Asura God did not deny it.
"That's one way to understand it."
"The divine realm does not wish to continue being your enemy."
"And you don't need to treat the entire divine realm as an enemy."
Tang Chuan stared at him.
"What about Douluo Continent?"
"You have interfered with Douluo Continent several times before, and even tried to take me away by force."
"You think you can get me to join the realm of gods just by saying we're no longer enemies?"
The Asura God seemed to have anticipated that he would ask this question.
"As long as you are willing to inherit the position of the Asura God, the God Realm will recognize your right to protect the Douluo Continent. From now on, the God Realm will no longer send gods to the Douluo Continent at will."
"Anything involving Douluo Continent will be discussed with you first. As long as there is no disaster on Douluo Continent that threatens other planes, the God Realm will not interfere in its internal development."
Tang Chuan's gaze sharpened slightly.
This condition really hit his weak spot.
His biggest conflict with the divine realm was not simply a personal grudge.
Rather, it was the arrogant attitude of the God Realm and their arbitrary interference in the Douluo Continent.
If the God Realm is truly willing to make concessions and acknowledge its right to protect the Douluo Continent, then there is indeed no need for either side to continue fighting to the death.
However, Tang Chuan did not believe it easily.
"Words are meaningless. How do I know you won't turn against me after I inherit the Asura God's position and enter the God Realm?"
The Asura God calmly said:
"The five great god-kings of the divine realm can jointly establish a divine oath."
"The oath is witnessed by the central authority of the divine realm."
"Even the King of Gods cannot easily disobey."
"In addition, the safety of those you care about can also be written into the oath."
"As long as they do not betray the divine realm on their own initiative, and do not do anything that harms the various planes, the divine realm will not harm them for any reason."
A change finally appeared in Tang Chuan's eyes.
The Asura God continued:
"You can bring those who have already become gods into the God Realm. Or you can stay on Douluo Continent for the time being, and formally enter the God Realm after you have settled everything."
"The divine realm will not force you to leave immediately."
"After you inherit the position of the Asura God, you will have the power to enforce the laws of the divine realm."
"At that time, even a first-level deity who wants to attack those around you will have to consider whether they can withstand the judgment of the Asura Demon Sword."
