In Douluo Continent, Tang San raids my base right from the start.

Chapter 114 This was handled unfairly.

"My great-grandfather was one, a demigod in the flesh, now over 800 years old, and still quite healthy," Zhu Wu said casually.

"Damn it," Ma Hongjun, who was over 800 years old, opened his mouth, speechless.

"However, he's already given up on becoming a god. He's had enough of living, so he's completely retired," Zhu Wu continued. "He's probably staying home playing with his kids right now."

"Asura, actually, I don't want to live anymore either." In the realm of gods, the evil god put down his wine cup and sighed.

"To be honest, sometimes I envy these humans in the lower realms. They have children and grandchildren to accompany them and die of old age without any regrets. It's not such a bad ending."

"Ah, no wonder destruction and life have always wanted a child."

"You can say that to Kindness," the Asura God glanced at him and said indifferently.

"."

"There was a guy in the outside world named Tang Chen who developed a unique technique called Ring Explosion. The principle is actually similar to our Beast Sect's Ring Fusion. It's just a pity that he couldn't take the final step." Zhu Wu continued, "My great-grandfather said that Tang Chen was the only person in all these years who had the opportunity to achieve a demigod body on his own. It's just a pity that he suddenly disappeared many years ago."

"My great-grandfather originally planned to wait until he completed the Nine Rings Fusion before going to spar with him. If he could successfully take that step and reappear in the world, I would definitely go and watch the battle; that scene would be incredibly exciting!"

Grandfather Tang Hao's eyes flickered, a hint of reminiscence and helplessness flashing in them.

If their grandfather were still alive, their family wouldn't have fallen to this state.

"Yingtian, if I may ask, how many elders in your family have completed the Nine Rings Fusion?" Dai Mubai couldn't help but ask.

"Not many, just a few." Zhu Wu shook his head. "This threshold requires a lot of talent and comprehension. It's not something you can succeed just because you have high cultivation. That's why our sect's disciples must go out into the world to experience things. There are some things you'll never understand if you don't experience them."

"In short, taking this step will be extremely difficult."

"Otherwise, you outsiders wouldn't have produced only one Tang Chen after so many years, and he's still just a half-baked one."

"Besides, if it were simple, do you think I would have told you all this?"

Everyone was speechless for a moment.

"This kid is quite unpretentious, just my type," the evil god laughed.

"Yingtian, isn't there any other way to become a god?" As if he had thought of something, Dai Mubai suddenly asked again.

"I remember, the Spirit Hall worships the Angel God," she said, stopping short of continuing.

"Becoming a god through faith, or receiving divine inheritance, are two other paths," Zhu Wu stated frankly. "Angel Gods rely on the former, but this path is not suitable for us. Our faith and our cultivation methods dictate that we cannot get involved in power struggles. Rules can evolve with the times, but once faith collapses, people's hearts will inevitably scatter, and the sect will disintegrate as a result."

"To have the belief in protecting nature may seem foolish to many outsiders. But from another perspective, without this belief, could our Beastmaster Sect still produce so many powerful figures and survive to this day?"

Tang San seemed to understand something and nodded, saying, "The greatest function of faith is to unite people's hearts and eliminate distractions."

"Not bad!" Zhu Wu feigned praise.

"As for accepting the inheritance of the gods," he continued, "this path is, in a sense, the simplest. One only needs to gain the approval of a god to be qualified to undergo divine trials and become a deity. But we, the people of the Illusionary Beast Sect, will not choose to take this path."

"Why?" Tang San couldn't help but ask.

"What belongs to others will always belong to others." Zhu Wu shook his head. "Furthermore, the reason why my Illusionary Beast Sect has been able to survive countless years and endure countless hardships is all thanks to four words: 'Man can conquer nature.' This victory does not mean defeating, but rather, after knowing what we can and should do, we should strive in accordance with the laws of nature and act in accordance with the way of heaven. Only in this way can we endure."

"That's also where my name comes from."

"If we can cultivate ourselves into gods through our own efforts, it means that the spiritual energy of this world has met the requirements and that the Heavenly Dao has allowed it."

"If not, then live out your life in peace, face your death, and return to the world after death."

"As I said before, the more powerful a being is, the more spiritual energy of heaven and earth it accumulates within its body. And to become a god, the amount of spiritual energy of heaven and earth that needs to be accumulated is truly enormous."

"Every time a god is made, it means that the spiritual energy in this world is suddenly reduced. Therefore, we will never forcibly become gods unless this world allows it. Otherwise, we will only bring a burden to this world."

"And what about the efforts and sacrifices of our countless predecessors? This is unfilial!"

"Therefore, to avoid making mistakes, we will only choose the path of becoming a god by condensing our tenth soul ring on our own."

"Not bad, that's ambitious!" The God of Evil smiled. "I actually hope one of them can succeed. Also, I have to mention the Dragon God again; he's caused a lot of trouble. If I'm not mistaken, the biggest reason why the Douluo Continent has been in such a slump all these years, besides the fact that the earth was destroyed once, is that the Dragon God separated himself from the small world he created back then."

"For the Douluo Continent, this is tantamount to having its heart ripped out; the loss of its very essence must be considerable. To undermine its own homeland's foundation—this is hardly a virtuous thing to do."

"While we gods have been drawing spiritual energy from the lower realms over the years, we emphasize sustainability, not this ruthless approach!"

The Asura God took a sip of red wine but did not reply.

Of the five great god-kings, the evil god talks the most nonsense and likes to play tricks on people; he's long been used to it.

Meanwhile, everyone in the private room remained silent.

"So, you should remember to plant more trees whenever you have time," Zhu Wu said with a smile.

"In that case, our clan might produce one in the future."

The crowd was speechless, unable to refute it. If the external conditions were truly met, the talented Beast Sect would indeed have a great chance. Just look at Zhu Wu and Long Ling'er; their talent and potential are simply explosive!

"Alright, now that we've finished eating, I should go back to my room to cultivate," Zhu Wu continued.

"Then everyone can go home," Flander immediately replied. "Get some rest, we need to hurry on our way early tomorrow morning."

Everyone was still immersed in the information Zhu Wu had revealed, and nodded in silence.

The deception is real; now it remains to be seen whether the God Realm will fall for it. Zhu Wu stood up, took Long Ling'er's hand, and strode out of the private room.

As for these people in front of him, so what if they know? He doesn't think that without the immortal herb, who else in Shrek Academy besides Tang San, who is blessed with good fortune, would have a chance.

Sometimes, the truth is the sharpest knife that can kill and destroy a person's spirit!

On the other side, the Asura God waved his hand lightly, and the light of the red crystal ball in front of him immediately disappeared.

"Come on, let's drink!" The God of Evil raised his glass and laughed, "From what I can see, this kid you've taken a liking to isn't bad. He has twin martial souls, great fortune, good potential, and a fairly stable personality. I won't say anything more."

"Brother, I wish you a speedy escape from prison."

Zhu Wu and Long Ling'er's bodies were shielded by their elders using a secret technique, making it impossible for him to see through them, but Tang San could still see through them.

Asura God: "."

He sensed that evil was lurking in the shadows. Tang Tian was indeed exceptionally talented and blessed with great fortune.

However, in terms of achievements and character, they are not yet on the same level as Zhu Longyingtian and Long Ling'er. The three are all the same age, and the gap between them is obvious.

It's finally time to leave Shrek Academy!
