"Yeah, kid, I originally thought you were just going all out and risking everything."

The evil god-king also put away his amused expression, crossed his arms, raised an eyebrow, and his eyes became more serious. "Judging from your tone, this grand drama hasn't reached its climax yet?"

The surrounding first-level deities also erupted in a commotion, whispering amongst themselves:

"Could it be that he's trying to sabotage the Asura God's inheritance plan? Does he not want the God King to interfere in the mortal realm anymore, and to allow the Douluo Continent to return to its original destiny?"

"Impossible, right? To risk your life for this? Is it worth it?"

"Even if the Asura God's plan is thwarted, how can a newly ascended priest withstand the God King's retaliation?"

"Could he have some other trump card? But he can barely stand now, what other tricks could he possibly have up his sleeve?"

All the gods were baffled. How could this six-winged angel, who had meticulously planned every step of the way and outmaneuvered the Asura God, make such a seemingly unprofitable deal? He risked his life to expose the God King's scandal, yet he knew perfectly well that it wouldn't harm the other party at all, which was completely inconsistent with his previous shrewdness.

Just as the gods were discussing amongst themselves and the Asura God's killing intent was about to materialize, Qian Chongguang suddenly moved.

He supported himself with the two swords, one of light and one of darkness, stuck in the ground, and slowly straightened up.

Even with his bones shattered, his robes soaked in golden divine blood, and his six wings tattered, his spine remained ramrod straight, like a holy sword that had never bent, showing no sign of defeat. He casually wiped the divine blood that kept spilling from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, looked up at the God of Asura, and a meaningful smile appeared on his lips.

"Asura God King, I said from the beginning that I had a backup plan."

His voice wasn't loud, but it clearly drowned out all the other whispers as he said, enunciating each word distinctly, "Furthermore, I never said that I only had one backup plan."

The entire venue fell into a deathly silence.

The Asura God's pupils contracted sharply, and the taut killing power around him instantly reached its maximum, like a giant bow ready to be drawn, locking onto Thousand Light.

He had already suffered a great loss once, and dared not underestimate this seemingly insignificant newly promoted priest again—who knew what earth-shattering scheme he was hiding?

The four God-Kings—Destruction, Life, Goodness, and Evil—simultaneously concealed their auras, their gazes fixed on Qian Chongguang, their eyes filled with vigilance and doubt. They simply couldn't understand what decent reliance a newly ascended priest could possibly have, surrounded by five God-Kings and dozens of first-level deities.

Just then, something unexpected happened!

In the eastern part of the divine realm, the angel temple, which had been silent for ten thousand years and had long been forgotten by the gods, suddenly burst forth with a golden pillar of light that pierced through the heavens and the earth!

The beam of light was so dazzling and holy that it instantly pierced through the vast sea of ​​clouds in the divine realm, dyeing the entire sky of the divine realm pure gold.

The extremely dense divine power of light swept out like a tsunami, and wherever it passed, even the spiritual herbs and trees of the divine realm shimmered with golden light. Its power was more than ten times stronger than any of the phenomena that had occurred when any ascendant had ascended!

All the gods on the stairway to divinity instantly changed their expressions and turned to look eastward.

"What is that?!"

A first-level deity who wielded the Law of Light exclaimed in shock, "It's the direction of the Angelic Temple! That's the resonant light of the angelic divine lineage!"

"Impossible! Isn't the successor to the angelic throne right here?!"

Another deity, utterly astonished, pointed at Qian Chongguang, his voice trembling, "He was right before our eyes, how could he possibly activate the inheritance of the angelic divine position at the same time?!"

"No, this power fluctuation..." The Goddess of Life closed her eyes, carefully sensing the sweeping divine power of light. Her delicate brows furrowed sharply, and when she opened her eyes, they were filled with shock. "This is the genuine fluctuation of a first-level god's origin! This isn't the power of a newly ascended god who has just broken through to level 100! Even if someone has just inherited their divine position, their foundation is terrifyingly stable, completely unlike someone who has just completed their inheritance!"

The gods were completely dumbfounded.

The angelic divine position was successfully passed on, and the divine temple in the divine realm erupted with a resonant light. However, the Thousand Lights, who should have been the successor, stood before them, covered in wounds and struggling to even move.

What on earth is going on?!

All eyes instantly turned back to Chizuru.

Facing the shocked and astonished gazes of the gods, Qian Chongguang simply smiled calmly, as if all of this was within his expectations. He gently shook the twin swords of light and darkness in his hands, and faint afterimages appeared on the blades, as if they might dissipate at any moment.

"How is it, Lord God-King?" He looked up at the ashen-faced Asura God, his smile full of mockery. "Are you all satisfied with this second layer of contingency?"

"What exactly did you do?!"

The voice of the Asura God was filled with suppressed rage and confusion. He could clearly sense that the light of inheritance was indeed the same pure angelic origin as the Thousandfold Light, but the other person was clearly here. How could this be!

"It's very simple."

Chizuki shrugged, his tone as casual as if he were talking about something perfectly ordinary.

"What you've been staring at all along, this ant who was beaten up by the Asura God King for half a day and whose scandal was exposed in public, is nothing more than a perfect clone that I spent a hundred years refining with one-third of my soul essence and the life blood of the angel race."

These words struck like a thunderbolt from the heavens, hitting all the gods present hard on the head!

The entire place was deathly silent; not even a breath could be heard.

Everyone froze on the spot, their faces filled with disbelief. Even the four god-kings were stunned, their eyes filled with astonishment.

A clone?!

Among all these gods, including the five god-kings, not one of them could see that the angel before them, with flesh and blood, divine soul fluctuations, and even the power of light and darkness, was actually just an avatar?!

You must understand, the God-King's divine sense is enough to sweep across the entire God Realm, leaving nothing hidden. Not to mention a mere clone, even the slightest fluctuation of divine soul cannot escape their perception. Yet now, they have been completely deceived by a clone, and have even spent a long time discussing and deducing its purpose!

The one who was most devastated was none other than the God of Asura.

His crimson divine power instantly went out of control and exploded, causing countless spiderweb-like cracks to appear on the hard white jade altar beneath his feet.

He stared intently at Qian Chongguang, his bloodshot pupils filled with veins, his voice trembling—

That was a furious outburst driven to the extreme by the humiliation and scheming.

"What did you say?! A clone?!"

He went berserk, publicly beating, humiliating, and even nearly crushing a clone—and it turned out to be just that clone?!
