"Therefore, her subconscious and survival instincts would absolutely not allow her to escape the shadows. This is a complete dead end."

Chapter 325 Only true death can bring complete liberation!

……

Poseidon fell silent.

In the water mirror, Bibi Dong's cries remained suppressed and painful; even across two dimensions, one could feel the torment of her soul being roasted on a fire.

"To put it bluntly..."

The voice of the evil god was devoid of any warmth: "The only way to truly change her, to completely untie this knot, is death."

Poseidon's eyes narrowed: "Death?"

"Yes, and it must be a complete, absolute, and utter death with no way out!"

The God of Evil emphasized, "Not even feigning death or being near death is allowed."

“A simple near-death experience can’t fool her subconscious. As long as she hasn’t truly stopped breathing, once she catches her breath and realizes she’s still alive, that deep-seated fear and nausea will immediately return. She will only shrink deeper and become more twisted and more insane than before!”

The god of evil turned away, no longer looking at the pointless struggle reflected in the water mirror.

"For her now, every second she lives in this world is an unbearable torment."

"What she truly longed for deep down was never some vague salvation, but complete liberation."

"But this path leads only to death."

"..."

"Is there really no other way?" The God of Kindness frowned, a hint of reluctance flashing in his eyes.

"No."

The God of Evil shook his head without hesitation. "This kid has done everything he could, used every trick in the book, and played all his trump cards. You've all seen the result—it was all for naught."

"Actually, Nan Feng saw things more clearly than anyone else from the very beginning."

The God of Evil sneered, "Why has Bibi Dong always kept her distance from Qian Renxue, her biological daughter? Why does she pretend to be indifferent and even disgusted when she clearly longs for family affection?"

"Because deep down, she desperately wanted Qian Renxue to grow up quickly and then... come looking for her with a sword to take revenge."

That was her deepest desire!

Upon hearing this, Poseidon's expression changed drastically: "You long to be killed by your own daughter?"

“Yes.” The God of Evil’s gaze was profound. “She knew all along that she couldn’t survive in this world. That encounter in the secret chamber had already killed her soul. But deep down, she was an extremely proud person. She couldn’t bring herself to commit suicide like a coward.”

"She needs an absolutely just reason, a sharp enough knife to end her sinful and painful life."

"And Qian Renxue is the only one in this world who is qualified to draw his sword, and the only executioner she can accept."

“That was her flesh and blood, the bastard child she gave birth to after being raped, and her only bloodline in this world. No matter how unwilling she was to admit it, in the depths of her rotten heart, dying at the hands of Qian Renxue was her last salvation.”

"And the name of this redemption is—death!"

The evil god pointed at Nan Feng, who was utterly dejected in the water mirror:

"This kid is smart; he saw through this dead end from the very beginning. But he's too arrogant; he doesn't believe in fate."

"He insisted on using his own methods to try and pull this woman back from the edge of the cliff, determined to defy fate for her. And what was the result? He tried everything, almost getting swallowed up by the woman's madness, driving himself insane, and in the end, this was still the result."

"A dead end, only death can break it. This is an unsolvable deadlock."

The God of Kindness's eyes narrowed upon hearing this: "Since only death can bring relief, then I will now unleash divine punishment and kill her directly! I'll give her a quick death!"

"No."

The God of Evil resolutely refused, "I said, only Qian Renxue can truly bring her liberation. This family's rotten mess can only be cleaned up by their own hands. If someone else kills her, that's a violent death. If Qian Renxue kills her, that's liberation. Nan Feng can't intervene, and neither can we so-called gods."

"We can't just stand by and watch!" The God of Kindness was speechless. "If these two continue to drag this on hopelessly, they'll eventually be worn down to death by each other, their very souls drained by internal strife!"

"Even if we wanted to interfere, we couldn't circumvent the laws of Douluo Star." The God of Evil shrugged and glanced at Poseidon beside him. "At least Poseidon left Seagod Island in the lower realm as an anchor point for the inheritance of divine thoughts. What do we have? We have nothing."

"Although the mutated evil god bloodline power on Nan Feng and Bibi Dong has a trace of primal connection with me, allowing me to sit here and spy on them without any hindrance, the problem is that I can only watch. Gods need a physical medium to interfere with the mortal realm, and I can't control that power across planes to do anything."

The God of Kindness pondered for a moment, "There's no medium, is there? Then I'll go and hold the inheritance test for him right now! As long as he accepts the test, and we have this connection, won't we be able to intervene legitimately?"

Upon hearing this, the God of Evil froze.

He looked at the God of Kindness as if he were a madman, remained silent for a full three seconds, and then asked in a strange tone:

"...Are you serious?"

“I know you’ve always liked that kid, thinking that although he’s a bit of a jerk, he has a clear bottom line and is quite interesting.”

The god of evil pointed at the man reflected in the water mirror who had just been cursing the world as a cesspool, saying...

"But I must warn you, with his extremely realistic and calculating mind, there is absolutely no way he can pass your divine test!"

The divine examination for the inheritance of the God of Kindness has always been a taboo joke in the divine realm.

Over the past tens of thousands of years, the God of Kindness has tried to find successors in the mortal realm and has even sent down divine tests.

However, without exception, all the examinees failed, and their fates were extremely tragic!

Do not be so naive as to think that her divine trials will have even the slightest bit of "kindness" or "benevolence" just because her name contains the word "kindness"!

On the contrary, this woman's test was nothing short of inhumane!

Because in the Goddess of Kindness’s absolutely extreme logic, she firmly believes that the purest and most loyal qualities of kindness must be proven through the most cruel, darkest, and most rigorous tests in the world!

True gold must be refined by the fiercest fire!

Therefore, there was absolutely no leniency whatsoever in her test.

She would drive the examinees to the brink of certain death, strip them of everything, and subject them to betrayal by their loved ones, condemnation by thousands, and a fate worse than death.

Then, they are forced to choose the selfless "good" even in the most extreme malice and despair.

This kind of test completely goes against the biological instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm, and thoroughly tramples on humanity!

It is no exaggeration to say that the divine test of the Kind God-King was a hellish torment that no mortal or even any deity could pass except for herself, a naturally holy god!

Chapter 326 Asura God: You guys are just bored and have nothing better to do.

……

"You don't have any deep-seated hatred for this kid, so don't cause him any trouble like this, okay?"

Poseidon, the god of the sea, finally couldn't stand it any longer and interrupted the god of goodness's terrible idea.

"This kid is already miserable and desperate enough, and you want to add fuel to the fire at this time?"

Poseidon had witnessed the divine trial of the god of goodness several times over the past tens of thousands of years.

That can't be described as "inhuman" at all; it's downright shameless!

Other people's divine trials at most push the inheritor to the brink of death, squeezing out their potential, which is a good thing.

But what about the divine test of the God of Kindness?

That directly pushes people towards utter nihilism and mental breakdown!

In Poseidon's opinion, this woman was definitely mentally ill!

"Yes, true gold fears no fire, we all understand that principle. But you can't keep burning it forever!"

Poseidon pointed at the god of goodness and couldn't help but complain, "And you can't keep raising the temperature indefinitely! Is this alchemy? You're just throwing real gold into the core of the sun!"

"That's not tempering, that's direct vaporization! Forget about real gold, what can withstand that kind of high-temperature burning?!"

The god of kindness, displeased by Poseidon's sharp rebuke, retorted confidently:

“I think he can handle it! Besides, the reason you think my divine test is bizarre and inhumane is simply because your understanding is too vulgar! You don’t understand what true goodness is!”

"Yes, yes, we are vulgar."

The God of Evil rolled his eyes. "In the entire divine realm, you are the only one who remains untainted by the mud. You are the most noble."

"Keep your stupid assessment for yourself to enjoy. This kid is already being driven crazy by that woman. If you throw that thing at him, you're not going to save him, you're going to drive him completely insane."

The God of Kindness was speechless for a moment, then stamped his foot in exasperation: "Well, I just couldn't stand it anymore, could I?!"

"As you've all said, they're in a hopeless situation. What other way is there to break this mess, besides introducing a sufficiently powerful external force to forcibly break the deadlock?"

Upon hearing this, the God of Evil stroked his chin, a glint of cunning flashing in his eyes.

"External force... I happen to have a solution."

"However, this matter requires the help of a notoriously inflexible fellow in our divine realm."

The God of Kindness was taken aback and asked in confusion, "Who?"

"Asura".

Poseidon's eye twitched violently, his face filled with disbelief: "Shura? What help can he possibly offer?"

"Have you forgotten that in the Killing City of the Lower Realm, there is still a successor who is trapped in the Eighth Trial and is about to turn into a bat monster?" The Evil God sneered.

"Anyway, that guy has been parasitized by the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King for so many years, there's no way he can wake up on his own again. Even if we take a step back and assume that he miraculously wakes up, given his current physical condition, which is completely corroded by toxins and evil thoughts, he would probably die on the spot as soon as he opens his eyes."

"Since he's already useless, why don't we... make use of him one last time before he's completely dead?"

Poseidon frowned, clearly finding the suggestion extremely unreliable: "Shura values ​​his rules more than his own life. That successor is, after all, someone he chose. Would he agree to let you use his successor as a pawn to break the deadlock?"

"Probably not." The God of Evil shrugged, quite nonchalantly.

"However, there is still a 20% chance."

The evil myth shifted its focus, its gaze turning sinisterly towards Bibi Dong reflected in the water mirror.

"Don't forget, this woman named Bibi Dong, although she is currently filled with Rakshasa evil thoughts, if a supremely strong and unyielding force could help her completely reshuffle and re-temper, her temperament, methods, and that extreme killing intent would make her the most perfect successor to the Asura God's position!"

"Of course, given her current hopeless state, Shura would definitely not be interested in her."

The god of evil paused, a cunning glint in his eyes.

"However, if the few of us join forces and use some tricks to persuade him, maybe that rigid guy will agree to give this deal a try."

Upon hearing this, the God of Kindness's eyes lit up, and he immediately added, "If you're worried about not having enough, how about... I make a trip to the Forest of Life and bring the couple, Life and Destruction, over as well?"

"With so many of us gods coming to his door to ask, he should at least consider our feelings and give it a try, right?"
