Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as the Rock King Emperor, Wandering the Mortal World

Chapter 367: The God of Fire

Faced with the "threat" of the Asura God, secondary deities such as the God of Food, the Nine-Colored Goddess, and the God of War had no chance to resist and could only obey his orders.

If you don't follow the Asura God's arrangements, you might be given a hard time, die mysteriously in some mission, or never leave the God Realm for the rest of your life.

But that's not realistic, which is one of the reasons why everyone follows Shura's arrangements.

For them, passing on their divine positions sooner and leaving this hypocritical divine realm sooner would also be a good thing.

The gods traveled together as a group, so they could look after each other.

Unbeknownst to them, the Asura God shared the same thought: to inherit the divine position and leave as soon as possible.

And they must leave with these deities...

But the God of Fire is different. The difference between him and the Asura is only one level. Although this difference is huge, it can protect him from the threat of the Asura.

If a real fight breaks out, with his strength, he can easily stall until the God of Destruction arrives, at which point he will be safe.

Asura and the God of Destruction are at odds. Asura wants to confront any god or participate in any decision, and the God of Destruction will almost always disagree with him.

But the goddess of life, the wife of the god of destruction, is more "wise and righteous." Between love and right and wrong, she always chooses the wrong path and contradicts the god of destruction, while secretly comforting him.

The goddess of life, Chali, was a kind deity, but unfortunately, her ending was not good.

Should he, as the God of Fire, pass his divine position to that chubby boy?

Forget it, Vulcan can't afford to lose face like that!

It's hard to judge Ma Hongjun's character. If there was no other choice, he could indeed pass the divine position to Ma Hongjun, which would be in accordance with the will of the Asura God.

But he wasn't without options. He had been observing Poison Four Seasons for a long time and was very satisfied with Poison Four Seasons' performance. With this person inheriting the position of Fire God, he might achieve the highest level with the help of the Rock King Emperor.

At that time, won't you be able to draw Shura whenever you want?

Of course, even if he succeeds in breaking through, as a supreme god, the God of Fire might not be able to defeat the God of Asura, who after all had slain the Dragon God.

"Are there no more than two hands' worth of people in the entire divine realm stronger than you?"

Du Siji asked doubtfully, "If that's the case, doesn't that mean the God of Fire is just so-so?"

If you call him top-tier, there are still so many gods who can defeat him.

It's only because Poisonous Seasons doesn't know exactly how many gods there are in the God Realm that he would think this way.

There are many gods in the divine realm, including the Celestial Hunters and Priests who have reached the level of a hundred. There are tens of thousands of gods in the entire divine realm.

Among these tens of thousands of gods, the God of Fire has reached the pinnacle!

To put it bluntly, who among those who can ascend to godhood isn't a prodigy in their own world?

One such being might not appear even once every tens of thousands of years.

However, after these chosen ones ascend to heaven, they must be extremely respectful when they see the Fire God, who is at the peak of the first-level god level!

"Genius is merely the threshold to my understanding."

If the God of Fire were to stir up trouble in the divine realm, these geniuses would be nothing more than soldiers besieging him, and would be considered insignificant.

Vulcan's eye twitched, somewhat speechless.

That's just him being modest!

If the five great god-kings were to fight him one-on-one, he wouldn't be able to defeat any of them.

As for the other first-level gods, only a few at the peak of the first-level god realm were evenly matched with him, but none of them could defeat him.

"There are five supreme gods in the God Realm. Using the Douluo Continent method, I am only one level below them."

"Who does this kid think he is?" Vulcan said quietly.

Unexpectedly, this mighty God of Fire, a prominent figure in the divine realm, was willing to turn against Asura for this kid, yet the kid looked down on him for being weak!

He acts like he's the strongest in the Body Sect. Pshaw, big brother, let alone second brother, we're all about the same.

It seemed that Poisonous Seasons understood.

The Vulcan before us may not be weak, but his strength is not very obvious.

Above him there is only a small group of gods, and below him there are countless other gods.

But such a god is actually afraid of the sect leader...

It seems the sect leader is hiding many things from everyone. I wonder how much pressure the sect leader is under.

Ultimately, their strength was too weak to help the sect leader or bear any pressure.

As if he had thought of something, Du Siji looked at the Flame Temple again. These flames, which seemed to burn eternally, did not make him uncomfortable. On the contrary, they gave him a warm feeling.

"Then why did you call me here..."

"I will pass on my divine position to you!"

Before Poison Seasons could finish speaking, Vulcan bluntly said.

Divine succession?

Du Siji stared wide-eyed, somewhat incredulous. He never expected to encounter such an opportunity.

He was no longer a clueless novice; he knew what divine succession was.

To become a god, one must either inherit a divine position or create one's own.

Inheriting a divine position is the simplest method. As long as a god is willing to pass on the divine position, one will almost certainly become a god, and it will be very quick.

Creating one's own divine position is relatively difficult, but there are two paths one can take.

One must either "break the law with force," forcibly accumulating enough soul power to become a god, and converting it all into divine power, while also forging the body and soul into a divine body and a divine soul respectively. Even if one is not a god, one is still a god. Once one ascends, one will be an extremely powerful god!

One must either gather faith, ignite the divine fire, forge divinity, and transform divine power, body, and soul to ascend to godhood.

In Poison Seasons' memories, the sect leader should have followed this path. Unfortunately, for the sake of the Body Sect, the sect leader gave up the readily available power of faith.

If it weren't for these dragging their feet, the sect leader would probably have become a god long ago...

Wait, something seems off!

After glancing at Vulcan and thinking about Zhongli, even the most clueless Du Siji understood where the problem lay.

The sect leader must have become a god long ago!

He must be an extremely powerful deity; otherwise, how could he have made this fire god feel afraid?

Only a god could evoke such emotions in another god.

"If you feel I'm a bit weak, then after you inherit my divine position, work harder and elevate the position of Fire God to the highest divine position!"

Seeing that Poison Seasons seemed hesitant to speak, Vulcan was a little annoyed. He really was not weak!

If he hadn't started cultivating so many years later than these supreme gods, he wouldn't be any worse than them!

Unfortunately, he's so "young".

"My current position as the God of Vulcan is merely my upper limit, not its ultimate limit."

Fire is the beginning of civilization; it represents more than just temperature—it is a symbol of inheritance.

Fire is one of the most fundamental laws of the universe. Without fire, without heat, the world would be plunged into darkness, and almost no living thing could survive.

There's nothing wrong with what the God of Fire said. He's only at the peak of the first-level god level right now, which doesn't represent the upper limit of his godhood. He's only at the peak of the first-level god level!
