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

Chapter 270 How about we make a bet?

"Become a god?"

The Evil Emperor's pupils visibly contracted, then he replied in a questioning tone, "Are you perhaps joking?"

"I never joke," Zhu Wu said calmly, while simultaneously transmitting his voice to Tianmeng and Xue Di.

The next second, silver light flashed on both sides of his body, and two spiritual entities appeared. Zhu Wu's voice rang out again, "Furthermore, I now have absolute confidence."

The Evil Emperor subconsciously scanned the two spiritual entities and sensed that they were extremely powerful.

"We have already offered sacrifices for our leader, helping him to become a god in human form," Tianmeng said, half-truthfully.

"You can call me Tianmeng, my true form is Ice Silkworm. You can tell from the number of golden patterns on my body that I am a super soul beast with a cultivation level of 99 years."

Impressive, isn't it! My back straightened involuntarily.

"The person next to me is named Xue Di, and her cultivation level is close to 70 years," he introduced.

"What if I disagree?" The Evil Emperor's heart sank slightly, and he couldn't help but ask.

This means they want it to be sacrificed.

"Then I'll have to take it myself." Zhu Wu's expression remained calm, but his tone shifted. "Evil Emperor, how about we make a bet?"

"I'll bet you I can withstand your strongest attack."

The Evil Emperor's eyes narrowed slightly, then he nodded slightly. "Alright, I'll take your bet. If you can withstand my strongest attack, I'll willingly sacrifice myself for you and gamble with you on the chance to become a god."

Zhu Wu nodded, recalled Xue Di and Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, then turned around and used teleportation to create distance.

"Come on," he said calmly, hovering thirty meters in the air.

"Be careful." The Evil Emperor reminded him politely, then his huge eyes flashed with red light, which gathered in the center of his pupils like arcs of lightning.

A moment later, a blood-red beam of light suddenly burst forth, its strongest technique, Light of Time and Space.

"A mental attack imbued with the mysteries of time, not bad!" Zhu Wu nodded in affirmation, and at the same time, light flashed between his brows as he activated the Time Dragon King and Space Dragon King soul bone abilities, "Space-Time Barrier!" With a thought, a silver-white light shield appeared in front of him.

With a soft "poof," the red and white lights came into contact, and the former was instantly thrown outwards.

"You've actually mastered the mysteries of time too!" The Evil Emperor was astonished, especially since he used it even more skillfully and masterfully than the Evil Emperor.

"Bearing the soul bones of the Dragon King and the inherited memories of the Dragon God, what do you think?" Tianmeng Bingcan thought to herself.

"I have lost." The Evil Emperor withdrew his skill and sighed.

The gap is too big. The other party's proposal of a bet is clearly a way for him to back down. If it really comes to a fight, he's just asking for trouble.

"You flatter me." Zhu Wu smiled and dissipated his power.

"I'm willing to accept the consequences of my bet," the Evil Emperor said frankly.

Of course, if Zhu Wu had come alone, he certainly wouldn't have been willing. But with the two ferocious beasts, Tianmeng and Xuedi, willingly sacrificing themselves, and considering the strength Zhu Wu had just displayed, he felt that perhaps there really was a chance.

It's worth trying as a group.

"Please wait a moment while I explain some things to my people." With that, he released his spiritual power to summon his people.

Zhu Wu nodded and waited quietly.

Before long, one after another, the Evil Eye Tyrants floated over, some large and some small, but not many, less than 30 in number.

But each of them has a cultivation period of over 10,000 years, and there are three of them with a cultivation period of 100,000 years.

"No wonder it can still rule the Demon Forest after ten thousand years," he thought to himself.

As spirit-attribute soul beasts, the Evil Eye Tyrant clan communicates through mental sharing, without needing to speak, making it extremely efficient. After a short while, they all looked over, then scattered in a ring, seemingly preparing to patrol their surroundings.

At that moment, the Evil Emperor turned around and transmitted his voice, "Let's begin."

Zhu Wu nodded slightly, and then felt a strong mental fluctuation erupt, like a dazzling red flame rising from the Evil Emperor's body.

A few blinks later, a crimson beam of light burst forth, instantly enveloping Zhu Wu's body, and the Evil Emperor's astonished voice followed.

"The soul bone within you!?"

It was truly shocked; the intensity and the aura were simply outrageous!

"A divine-level true dragon bone," Zhu Wu replied.

"God-level!" The Evil Emperor was shocked, then sighed, "It seems I made the right choice."

"Since you already possess the Skull of Wisdom, I will condense an additional external soul bone for you to become your third eye, which is also my strongest part."

"Thank you." Zhu Wu nodded.

"I'm only doing this for myself," the Evil Emperor replied, focusing on the sacrifice.

Zhu Wu said no more and focused on channeling his surging spiritual power into the spiritual core in his upper dantian for compression.

Two quarters of an hour later, a sharp pain suddenly came from between his eyebrows. Upon internal inspection, he saw the meridians pulsating inside along with the flesh and blood, and an eyeball quickly took shape.

The pupils were initially blood red, but after a short while, they were enveloped in a nine-colored glow, and their color changed accordingly.

"Rip." The skin writhed and cracked open, revealing the eyeballs inside. Blood seeped out from the bottom, but quickly dried up.

At the same time, Zhu Wu felt that the eyeball instantly connected to the soul core in his upper dantian, as well as to the sea of ​​spirit, merging with the eye of a living being filled with the power of destiny. His vision changed drastically, and a colorful elemental world came into view.

At that moment, Zhu Wu felt as if he had seen the essence of the world.

Various elements of heaven and earth appeared clearly in my mind, including the elements of time and space that I hadn't quite understood before.

Looking inward, at the center of his upper dantian, a nine-colored radiance suddenly shone from within his originally silvery-white spiritual core. It was precisely the appearance of this nine-colored radiance that made him feel as if he had seen through the essence of the world, experiencing a sense of sudden enlightenment.

"This is... divine consciousness." Zhu Wu, who had inherited part of the Dragon God's memories, naturally knew what this was.

The surge in spiritual power brought about by the Evil Emperor's sacrifice finally allowed him to compress his spiritual core to a qualitative change, generating a wisp of divine consciousness.

Although it's only the most core part, it's undoubtedly a good omen. Because it represents assimilation, the higher assimilates the lower. Next, he only needs to follow the steps and continuously inject spiritual power into the soul core, and his divine consciousness will naturally assimilate the entire spiritual soul core from the inside out.

Until the soul core transforms into the divine core, the spiritual power completely transforms into divine consciousness, which then influences the soul, allowing the soul to advance to the level of a divine soul.

Moreover, that's not all.

Within the middle dantian, as the vast life essence generated by the Evil Emperor's sacrifice was continuously injected, the core of the Qi, Blood, and Soul Core underwent a qualitative change.

After all, it was a behemoth with a diameter exceeding 300 meters, possessing formidable vitality. Of course, the fundamental reason for such a change was the bloodline of the Dragon God.

The improvement in his physical strength and vitality allowed him to further stimulate the bloodline of the Dragon God, which in turn nourished himself.

His body has successfully advanced to the level of a demigod.

Aside from his cultivation level not keeping up, he has now officially entered the demigod realm. Once the soul core assimilation is complete, helping him achieve a divine soul and divine body, he will be a true god. Of course, this doesn't mean he's a true god without a cultivation level exceeding one hundred and without a divine position.

"Physical ascension to sainthood?" Zhu Wu couldn't help but think of the settings in the fantasy and martial arts novels he had read in his previous life.

However, regardless of the circumstances, he is now at least invincible in the Douluo Continent, the strongest combat force on the true continent.

Time passed slowly, and Zhu Wu continued to focus on compressing the soul core. An hour later, the sacrifice was complete, and the Evil Emperor's spiritual essence entered the Sea of ​​Spirit.
