Douluo Continent: Starting with the Tiger Emperor Template

Chapter 299 Then let's kill them all.

Let's go back to the moment when the God of Destruction was sent flying by a single punch from the Great Curse Spirit.

The blasted debris flew over a field of ruins, smashed through two mountain peaks, and finally crashed heavily into a scorched valley.

Sand and gravel fell in a soft rustling sound.

The God of Destruction lay in the pit for a few breaths before slowly opening his eyes.

"I underestimated my opponent."

The God of Destruction couldn't help but say.

He really didn't expect that the great cursed spirit's combat power was so strong. It was no wonder that it was a cursed spirit whose power source was his destructive divine power.

He is at least a half-step God-King level being.

"Where did Lu Ren get all these weird gadgets to work for him?"

The God of Destruction struggled to get up, but as soon as he moved, he felt pain all over his body.

It was like experiencing what it felt like to be struck by a bolt of lightning.

"Damn it—"

He tried to stand up, supporting himself on the ground.

Just then, the God of Destruction sensed an incredibly familiar aura rapidly approaching from afar.

She is his wife, the goddess of life!

The God of Destruction paused in his movements.

He closed his eyes, carefully trying to discern the direction of the call.

The God of Destruction remained silent for a few moments, then climbed out of the pit and flew towards his wife without looking back.

This is also the main reason why the God of Destruction quickly left the battlefield.

In a dense forest.

The goddess of life stood in the forest, watching the purplish-black figure fall from the horizon.

Her husband was breathing unsteadily, his clothes were charred black, and there were burn marks on the skin of his shoulders from lightning strikes.

Upon seeing this, the goddess of life immediately went to greet her.

Are you injured?

"Minor injury."

The God of Destruction stood still, letting her examine the wound on his shoulder, and stubbornly said, "It's just that I was struck by my own power, it's nothing."

"Sigh." The Goddess of Life gently placed her hand on his shoulder, beginning to heal the injuries on the God of Destruction. "I could sense it from afar too. That great monster is extraordinary; its power source contains your power."

"It's not just my power." The God of Destruction's eyes turned cold. "The divine power of the Seven Deadly Sins, the fusion of good and evil, and the curse power that Lu Ren accumulated over ten days—he put everything he could together together to create that monster."

"I'm getting more and more curious about how many tricks he has up his sleeve to create so many monsters."

The goddess of life remained silent.

She withdrew her hand and took a step back.

The God of Destruction then raised his head and looked at her seriously.

"You called me here because something happened?"

"No," the goddess of life shook her head. "I'm fine."

"Then why do you keep calling me?"

"Because I want you to listen to me for a bit."

The Goddess of Life took a deep breath: "I had a talk with Lu Ren."

"When did this happen?" The God of Destruction's voice deepened.

"I was near him when you led the three God-Kings to besiege him." The Goddess of Life did not evade the question. "We talked for a long time, and he told me that he had only ever targeted Tang San."

"He said that as long as you remain neutral, he will not touch your interests in the slightest, the central authority of the divine realm will still be in your hands, and he will not touch the positions of the Sea God and the Asura."

"Lu Ren also gave me a way out, asking me to persuade you that as long as you and I stand on his side, we don't even need to take action. We just need to watch him deal with Tang San, and then this 'Death Tribulation Return' will end."

Upon hearing the last sentence, the God of Destruction suddenly laughed.

"So you came here to persuade me."

"Yes."

"When did you start siding with him?"

"I'm not taking sides," the goddess of life said calmly. "I'm on your side."

She took a step forward and looked up at her husband: "He wanted me to persuade you not to side with Tang San, and I agreed because I knew the reasons behind it. He told me something I had to let you know."

"What did you say?"

"He said that Tang San had tampered with things in the central hub of the God Realm."

The God of Destruction's expression froze for a moment.

"He wants to take back the central hub, and he can do so at any time. The only reason you're still holding onto it is because Tang San feels it's not the right time yet."

"On what grounds?" the God of Destruction sneered. "On his word?"

"That's right."

These three words made the God of Destruction pause for a moment.

The goddess of life looked at him and said, "Don't forget Zhou Weiqing."

"Someone who was your informant, someone who knew your plans inside and out, couldn't stop your coup?"

"Is it that he couldn't stop them, or that he didn't want to?"

"Besides, we have no grudge against Lu Ren, so why do you insist on being his enemy?"

The God of Destruction stood there, silent for a long time.

That coup went too smoothly back then.

It went so smoothly that even he himself found it unbelievable.

He always believed that it was the result of his years of hard work and the right time.

Looking back now, it seems more like a door that was opened prematurely.

Although Lu Ren had told him in person before that Zhou Weiqing was Tang San's man, to be honest, he still didn't quite believe it.

Only now, with even his own wife saying the same thing, did the God of Destruction finally have time to think.

"You're right, we have no grudge against Lu Ren, but even so, I won't stop."

"What did you say?" The goddess of life's eyes widened slightly.

"I said, I won't stop." The God of Destruction repeated, "These scores are easy to settle, I'll remember them. But those are scores between Tang San and me, not Lu Ren's."

"The person standing in front of me now is Lu Ren."

"The cycle of death has spread throughout the entire realm of gods. In these ten days, how many gods have died because of this cycle of death? Can you count them?"

"Those second-level gods, third-level gods, and countless officials were all treated like insects in the Gu Refining Ground by Lu Ren, who threw them in one by one to fight."

"Lu Ren is now standing on the opposite side of the entire God Realm. Do you think I can stop him?"

"So—I have to stop him."

"Even if the price is standing with Tang San?"

"Between Tang San and him, I can only choose one." The God of Destruction's voice was firm. "At least Tang San follows the rules, while Lu Ren's methods are somewhat extreme. He directly launched the Death Annihilation Return, which has already had a serious impact on the entire God Realm, even causing irreparable damage."

"I can't choose him."

"Lu Ren's rule is that he has no rules."

"How can you expect me to just stand by and watch Tang San die?"

The goddess of life fell silent.

She looked at her husband for a long time, and finally let out a long sigh.

"It seems I can't persuade you."

"That deal was a failure."

The goddess of life continued, "That's fine then, Destruction, I've made myself clear."

"Destruction, it's not that you can't see it, it's that you can't swallow this insult."

The God of Destruction's brow twitched.

"Previously, Tang San was suppressing you. You launched a coup because you were unwilling to be subordinate to others."

"Now that Lu Ren has arrived, you find yourself even having to be wary of him, and you are still not reconciled."

"This sense of unwillingness to accept defeat is exactly what Lu Ren desires most."

"He only absorbs these negative emotions from us, which is why he can continue to grow stronger from our entire divine realm!"

The God of Destruction did not refute this.

Because this woman was telling the truth.

"----you're right."

He admitted in a low voice, "I'm not reconciled."

"I am unwilling to be outmaneuvered by Tang San, nor am I willing to be overshadowed by that mortal of unknown origin."

"But it is precisely because of my unwillingness to give up that I cannot stop."

"Lu Ren wants my emotions, and I can't let him have his way."

The goddess of life looked at him and suddenly smiled.

There was a hint of helplessness in that smile.

"See, even when admitting something, they manage to come full circle."

"In that case..."

She reached out her hand and stood beside him: "Then let's go together."

The God of Destruction turned his head sharply: "You want to fight him with me?"

"I am your wife," the goddess of life said calmly. "I cannot stop you from doing what you are going to do, so I will accompany you to the end."

"Moreover, I can hold off that great cursed spirit all by myself. Don't forget we are husband and wife, and our fusion technique is one of the strongest moves in the divine realm."

The God of Destruction looked at her, his gaze momentarily complicated.

Then he chuckled softly.

"Let's go then."

Just as they turned around to set off.

An aura surged from the very edge of the divine realm.

An indescribable, terrifying power, carrying an aura of both abyssal coldness and scorching heat, rolled over layer by layer, covering the mountains and overflowing the rift valleys.

The entire sky was covered with patterns of gold and black, which spread at an extremely slow speed, yet sent a chill down the spines of everyone who saw them.

That's the power of a god-king!

And it's still climbing!

"This is----"

The Goddess of Life's expression changed: "It's Lu Ren who's being promoted."

The God of Destruction abruptly turned to look at the source of the power: "No wonder we were held back by those cursed spirits and barriers; it turns out Lu Ren was trying to take this opportunity to secretly break through to the God King realm!"

"We absolutely cannot let him get his way!"

You have to understand that Lu Ren's combat power is already far beyond what is expected. If he weren't so confident that he could deal with the five God Kings at the same time, he would have definitely taken action and killed them directly instead of going through all this trouble.

But now, once Lu Ren successfully advances to the God King realm, he'll probably crush them like insects with ease.

"We must hurry and stop Lu Ren!"

Two figures soared into the air and flew rapidly toward Lu Ren's location.

What they didn't expect was that Lu Ren was only a second-level god at this stage, and was not at all trying to break through to the God King realm.

The idea of ​​breaking through to the God-King realm is merely their own perception and opinion.

The realm of gods, in the north.

Ji Dong was meditating at the foot of a cliff, trying his best to recover his condition.

Just then, he suddenly looked up at where Lu Ren was.

The sky, tinged with gold and black, pressed all the clouds low.

He placed his hand on the stone wall and took a deep breath.

"—We have to stop him."

"I haven't avenged you for ambushing me last time."

Ji Dong immediately got up and flew away.

The realm of gods, to the east.

The flames stopped and turned around.

Behind her followed seven deities she had rescued. These people had been fleeing eastward, but they followed her after encountering her.

Where do you want to go?

"grown ups----"

"If you want to live, follow me." Blazing Flame looked at the distant sky, his voice calm. "Someone over there is advancing in rank. If he succeeds, we'll all die."

"But now it's in the past—"

"If you want to earn points and become stronger, I won't stop you. Come on, everyone!"

After she finished speaking, she flew directly in that direction.

The seven deities exchanged a glance, and finally followed.

The realm of gods, in the south.

A blond-haired youth stood on a patch of scorched earth, looking westward.

For the first time, a serious expression appeared on that face.

"This aura—is it the outsider you mentioned?"

The little golden beetle beside him replied, "Yes, that is the master who created me."

"He's really daring, quite bold," the Golden Dragon King laughed. "But I have to admit, he does have some skill."

"Duan can create a barrier that covers the entire divine realm, trapping everyone there while he secretly ascends to higher realms."

"That's right—in such a short time, surrounded by so many enemies, he just swaggered into promotions—"

"This approach either shows he's stupid or he doesn't take us seriously at all."

The Golden Dragon King narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Ren's promotion position: "Tsk, really annoying."

"Hey, little thing, in the end, it was your master who released me." The Golden Dragon King looked at the little golden worm. "Moreover, he knows a lot of information, and he also knows that I have a grudge against the God Realm, so his actions must have been intentional to release me to cause trouble."

o

"So you even want to use me to get rid of the God of Asura?"

"I'm sorry, your question is outside the scope of my answer." The little golden beetle shook its head decisively.

Golden Dragon King:

"I really dislike this feeling of being schemed against, so I plan to—sit back and watch the tigers fight." The Golden Dragon King shrugged and grinned.

"Isn't he trying to exploit my hatred for the divine realm so he can make me deal with the Asura God first? I won't!"

"Then I'll just use him to my advantage, let him help me deal with the Asura God first, and then I'll reap the rewards of victory, hahahaha!"

In a short time, the Golden Dragon King had already seen through the current situation in the deadly battle of the Death Return, and quickly made his own choice.

In the blink of an eye, a flash of golden light appeared, and the Golden Dragon King was no longer where he was.

And at the heart of it all.

On the edge of the divine realm, in a desolate wasteland.

Lu Ren remained seated cross-legged with his eyes closed.

Rings of magical power erupted from his body, spreading in all directions of the divine realm.

"Owner."

The little golden beetle flew to his side, its tone carrying a hint of solemnity: "I have observed that the entire divine realm is moving closer to this side."

"Tang San, good, evil —"

"All the god-kings and powerful beings still in the cycle of death and destruction are moving this way."

"In addition, cursed spirits and undead are blocking their way, but the gods who are after points are also surging over."

"All beings in the entire divine realm have been drawn here by Master's advancement."

Lu Ren closed his eyes and continued to push his cultivation level.

Even so, during the impact, he was still able to distract himself and say, "I know."

"During the promotion process, I have already simulated it once using the abilities of the Chaos and Harmony spells."

"So I knew my promotion would be a big deal, and I expected them all to come the moment I decided to apply."

"It would be strange if they didn't come."

"So I made sure I was fully prepared before I dared to start the promotion process."

Little Golden Insect An then reported, "There are two more things."

"The Goddess of Life's attempt to persuade the King of Destruction to make peace has failed."

"The Goddess of Life failed to win over the God of Destruction."

"And the Golden Dragon King has already deduced the master's purpose and plans to turn the tables and use the master against him."

Lu Ren then slowly opened his eyes.

There was a calm look in his eyes.

"I gave them a chance."

"Since you're determined to be enemies, let's kill each other together."

"As for the Golden Dragon King, I don't mind having another Golden Dragon King's power within myself."
