The Evil Soul Master is actually myself

Su Ming couldn't believe it; how could he possibly encounter such an incredible stroke of luck?!

In the divine realm atop the heavens, Tang San, witnessing this scene, calmly asked, "Destruction, will you stop me?"

“He is already the next successor to the God of Destruction. According to the rules of the God Realm, you can no longer attack him,” Destruction said indifferently.

He is fundamentally a primordial deity of this world. The power of destruction is merely icing on the cake for Him. Giving it up will not diminish His cultivation; at most, His combat power will be slightly reduced.

This includes many deities. The difference between a second-level deity and a first-level deity is merely a matter of authority and spiritual power. Cultivation still depends on one's own efforts.

"Is it because of the inheritance of the Underworld Lord? Hehe~ That makes him an exception." With a thought, Tang San disregarded the Ancient God of Destruction beside him and directly tried to capture Su Ming.

A massive, shimmering blue-gold hand slammed down, vast and boundless, as if containing the entire azure ocean within a tiny space. Its impact was earth-shattering, causing the void to crumble inch by inch.

Su Ming's expression turned solemn. Before he could think, he was shocked to discover that a sealing force surrounded him, blocking out all space, and a feeling of being locked down arose in his mind.

'It should be the Azure Bull's soul skill, Azure Sluggish Divine Claw?' Su Ming's thoughts raced, but he finally focused his attention and activated his ultimate technique.

The black jade gourd floating above suddenly unleashed an overwhelming and terrifying pressure, its dark and crystalline exterior gradually fading away, and it was enveloped in endless immortal light.

“Baby, turn around!” Su Ming shouted with a wicked sense of humor.

In an instant, with a "pop," a brilliant white light flashed and emerged from the mouth of the black jade gourd, like a stunning sword light that illuminated three thousand miles of snow and frost, and endless rain of light fell. Time and space seemed to freeze at this moment, falling into eternity, and the essence of heaven and earth seemed to boil.

Pfft!

The blue-gold hand in the sky shattered instantly, and Tang San, who stood in the God Realm, was stunned. He stared blankly down at his right hand, which was fair and slender, crystal clear like jade, but there was a tiny crack in the palm, from which golden blood oozed out.

Behind him, the goddess of love suffered an even more tragic fate. The eternal celestial light continued its relentless advance, striking the goddess's soft chest and creating a gaping hole in her flesh. Large amounts of golden blood spilled out, rising in a misty haze.

A dazzling, pure white celestial light emanated from the edge of the blood hole, as if it were ascending to immortality, continuously burning and expanding the wound; this was the transformation into the Dao.

In an instant, the eternal celestial light circled around and returned to the black jade gourd, where it was contained.

A few seconds after being hit, Cupid reacted, his face turning pale as he spat out a mouthful of golden blood mist. His soft body swayed precariously, and a pink, crystalline divine core was faintly visible, riddled with cracks.

"Hehehe~, Sea God... save... save me..." The God of Love's eyes dimmed, and his primordial essence continuously overflowed from the terrifying blood hole.

After delivering that attack, Su Ming in the mortal realm turned pale, and his majestic aura rapidly diminished. Taking advantage of the blue-haired monster's sudden and severe injury, he instantly closed the divine realm passage through the Qiankun Wenqing Valley.

At the same time, the strange phenomena in the sky, the towering sea, and the endless blue landscape all disappeared. The divine realm, which was faintly visible across endless time and space, also vanished, and the figures of the three true gods also disappeared.

In the realm of gods, the Sea God Tang San frowned deeply. He looked down at his palm, where the crack hissed and spread with terrifying feathering energy, struggling to widen the wound, which even the azure Sea God's divine power could not suppress.

"This is a wound of Dao transformation. What kind of divine artifact did the Underworld Lord leave him?" Tang San was shocked, and greed couldn't help but show in his heart. As a member of the God Realm Committee, he had naturally heard some ancient secrets and longed for that era.

"Don't even think about hitting him," the Ancient God of Destruction warned.

Upon hearing this, Tang San seemed to be deep in thought, thinking that Destruction was indeed worthy of coming from that era, perhaps he had some interaction with the Underworld Lord.

It has been said since ancient times in the God Realm that the lineage of the Underworld Lord is a mortal enemy of the God Realm, and they would suppress and destroy it whenever they encountered it. Unfortunately, as it has been passed down to the present day, most true gods have no interest in targeting it, and the traces of the Underworld Lord have long since vanished.

Otherwise, even the destruction might not dare to protect that kid.

Tang San glanced at the dying Cupid beside him and shook his head. Even he found this kind of Dao-transforming injury extremely difficult to deal with. He could either seek help from the God of Life or find the one who tied the knot and seize that strange power.

In Mingdu, Su Ming looked exhausted. The move he had just made was a slash of celestial light using the power of the 'main god,' and its immense power was enough to be called a slash that could be called a slash that could kill an immortal.

Driven by divine power, it truly possesses unfathomable abilities, but unfortunately, it is not sustainable.

After this attack, Elder Yi fell into a deep sleep, and this method could not be used again for the time being.

"I've already been exposed to the eyes of the divine realm, and I'll probably be watched by some hidden eyes from now on. This is inevitable on the path to godhood. However, I guess this destruction of the inheritance can be considered a blessing in disguise."

Various thoughts raced through Su Ming's mind as he weighed the pros and cons, but his body transformed into a shadow and quickly headed towards the temple.

"Some plans will have to change after this incident, but it's truly gratifying to have dealt a heavy blow to Cupid. A few costs are nothing," Su Ming thought to himself.

Su Ming traversed countless spaces, crossing vast distances to arrive before the Black Forest in a single step, and with a thought, he unlocked the lock.

The commotion startled some of the Soul Masters inside, who broke their meditation, stood up, and craned their necks to look around.

"Ah Ming, you're back? Are you alright?" Su Xuan'er's graceful figure appeared, and she walked quickly over with light steps, looking at her younger brother with concern.

She opened her arms and hugged Su Ming tightly.

The boy felt the softness of her broad embrace and blushed slightly: "Sister, I'm fine. There are so many people watching here."

The mature woman naturally didn't believe it. She carefully examined her brother's body and found that although his skin appeared to be cracked and his body seemed about to break, his essence was actually locked up and he was not seriously injured.

"Hey, don't take such risks in the future. Anyway, as long as there is true love in Qiankun Wenqing Valley, there is not much danger. There is no need to go head-to-head with the legendary gods."

Su Xuan'er's gentle face softly caressed Su Ming's face, her eyes filled with tender affection.

Su Ming felt a pang of guilt. Suddenly remembering something, he revealed the truth about his parents' past, but concealed some of the bloody details.

"What? How could Father do this to you?" Su Xuan'er was stunned and hugged her younger brother tightly with heartache.

A light, milky scent filled the boy's nostrils. He struggled to escape his sister's embrace, his face slightly flushed as he comforted her:

"It's alright. I've now gained initial capital through the blood of the evil god, and my path to becoming a true god is just around the corner. My parents can rest in peace now that their wishes have been fulfilled."

"Hmm~" Su Xuan'er hummed softly, then smiled and patted her younger brother's head, saying, "Ah Ming has grown up now, and he actually has the power of a true god."

Elder Xuan walked away, seemingly wanting to say something but stopping himself. His old face showed relief. Now he no longer regarded Su Ming as a junior. He was clearly someone of the same realm as himself. If he pushed someone too far, he could directly transform into a pseudo-god and kill him with a single blow, leaving no room for complaint.

Several familiar faces shivered for a moment, then Su Ming seemed to remember something and opened the undead demiplane.

A girl with flawless beauty and a pure temperament appeared. As soon as she appeared, she looked at Su Ming with sharp eyes and shouted: "Evil Soul Master scoundrel, take this!"

After saying that, Ye Guyi activated her Angelic Martial Soul and raised her hand, unleashing a long sword gleaming with holy light that slashed towards Su Ming.

Clang!

Without Su Ming even needing to lift a finger, Su Jue'er, with her sharp eyes, pulled her down and used her fingers and palms to flow with light and heat, dissolving the Holy Angel's fierce attack with a soul skill of the same attribute.

The girl collapsed to the ground, the golden holy sword flying to the side. Her face was blank and innocent: "Eh? You clearly also have a Light Martial Soul, so why are you colluding with evil spirit masters?"

Seeing this, Su Xuan'er sighed. She had learned from Su Ming that this holy angel was a simpleton, but she hadn't expected him to be so simpleton.

She stepped forward, gently comforted the girl, and explained the whole story.

"Is that so?" Ye Guyi hesitated for a moment, then apologized to Su Ming.

On the other side, after the Poison Elder of the Body Sect finished counting the surviving disciples, he stepped forward, clasped his hands in a fist salute to Elder Xuan, and said, "The matter here is settled, we will take our leave." Then he led his disciples and flew towards the Heavenly Soul.

Then, forces such as the Heavenly Dragon Sect and the Earth Dragon Sect also led their teams away.

Gradually, only a dozen or so members of Shrek Academy and the Forgotten River Path remained in the end.

Upon seeing this scene, Elder Xuan couldn't help but sigh, "Just now, our various forces were exchanging ideas on how to unite against the Holy Spirit Cult, but unfortunately, the conflict of interests is too great, and we have been unable to integrate them."

In fact, he knew perfectly well that because Su Ming had displayed power close to that of a true god, and the talent to reach the pinnacle sooner or later, a group of sects actually regarded Shrek Academy as the greatest threat.

"Alright, alright, let's go back." Elder Xuan shook his head and led everyone back to Shrek Academy.

However, as he approached Shrek Academy, Su Ming had a bad feeling.

Chapter 286 Rebellion

As the group descended outside Shrek City, Su Ming felt a strange sensation rise within him for some reason. He opened his Destiny Evil Eyes, and a bluish-purple mist rose from his crystalline pupils, revealing something extraordinary.

One after another, pillars of light shot into the sky, flowing with crimson gold, sparkling and shining with immense brilliance, forming auspicious clouds of five colors, revealing strange beasts or precious artifacts as they rose and fell.

Ignoring the gray and white fortunes of the masses below, Su Ming stared at these conspicuous pillars reaching the sky, each representing a powerful figure above the Title Douluo level.

"How could this be? I remember even Shrek Academy didn't have that many Title Douluo reserves, but today there are quite a few more." Su Ming muttered to himself.

"Moreover, the celestial fortune here has a bit more of a black and red aura of calamity. Why is that?" Su Ming looked up at the sky. The magnificent city should have been full of magnificent scenery and all kinds of life, but now it was filled with black and red mist, with the glint of swords and the sound of clanging weapons.

Even though he knew there might be some danger, he still stepped into Shrek City.

With a different level of cultivation and strength, one naturally doesn't need to act so petty. With such astonishing cultivation, where in the mortal world can't one go? Even if a true god targets one, one can still live freely and unrestrainedly with multiple life-saving soul techniques.

Moreover, Su Ming's entire fortune, his subordinates, and even his technical talents are all in Shrek City, and he can't possibly give them up.

“There’s not much to worry about at the True God level; the Ancient God of Destruction will help the village.” Su Ming thought to himself, recalling the various pieces of information he had obtained from the inheritance mark.

The ancient god of destruction said that the restrictions on the divine realm are very strict. Apart from a few tricks, the true god cannot descend completely because the mortal realm is unlikely to be able to withstand it. He will also keep a close eye on Tang San and tell him not to worry.

At the same time, Su Ming also understood why Destruction was so generous in handing over the [Authority of Destruction] to him, and he felt a little more at ease.

According to the information He gave, the divine realm occupies the end of the world's spiritual source, blocking the exit. The total amount of spiritual energy is inexhaustible, but it is still distributed according to authority. Those who destroy authority naturally take one of the largest shares.

When true gods ascend to the divine realm, their cultivation level is mostly around level 107 or 108. They need to use the spiritual energy they obtain through their authority to cultivate step by step to reach higher levels.

However, in this case, the divine position and spiritual energy would be entangled in karma, making it difficult to leave the Douluo world even if one attained immortality.

"Therefore, it is even more difficult to break free from the limitations of the world after cultivating to my level. The only way is to reduce and seek emptiness. I will pass on my divine position to you. Do not worry that I have other plans. I only want to get rid of karma."

"Furthermore, I have some connection with the Lord of the Underworld, so I have chosen to pass on my divine position along with all the karma I have accumulated to you."

This is a word of destruction from an ancient god, recorded in the inscription of heritage.

But Su Ming recalled the various signs of destruction in the original story and thought, 'This isn't just something related to the Underworld Lord; it's clearly a matter of immense cause and effect. Otherwise, why would he have passed on his divine position to me?'

However, even if Destruction relinquished his divine position, he might not be weaker than the God-King.

It is said that ten thousand years ago, the four gods—angel, sea god, asura, and rakshasa—laid out a grand scheme together to settle their karmic debts and travel together to the outer realms, severing their ties with Douluo.

Actually, angels and demons were the most thoroughly destroyed; even their divine positions collapsed. What's there to say about them?

Su Ming also learned many secrets of the God Realm from the inheritance mark, such as how Tang San was tricked back then. Do you think he didn't want to go to the outer realms to seek further progress?

That's impossible! The karma between the two powerful figures in the God Realm, the Sea God and the Asura, firmly bound him to the Douluo World.

Of course, there are also ancient gods such as evil, good, and destruction, all of whom originated from innate deities and have too many karmic connections. Even if they find successors, they can only eliminate some of the karmic connections. Just like the man and woman who act as evil and good in the present day, they are only giving the first generation a little more freedom.

"Well, since that's the case, I don't know whether inheriting the power of destruction is a good thing or a bad thing. After all, I can become a god on my own, so there's no need for the power of destruction," Su Ming thought helplessly.

Yet he couldn't refuse. Destruction was more like an elder seeing his disciple, relinquishing power to him out of a desire to protect him from many calamities. He had no choice but to accept this.

"We can only take it one step at a time." Su Ming thought to himself, and his body tensed up as he secretly activated various spells.

Rumble!

The moment you step into Shrek City, the weather changes dramatically. The dome is shrouded in a thick azure, while the earth ripples with layers of yellowish-brown waves. The two seem to be trying to refine this world into a rare treasure.

"Who dares to act so presumptuously!" Elder Xuan shouted, his voice filled with shock and anger. He had never expected that someone would steal from his doorstep. How dare they?

The Sea God Pavilion is just a stone's throw from here, and its many powerful figures could descend at any time. Since ancient times, what assassin would act in such a manner?

Just as everyone was most relaxed, the sky blue and earth yellow intertwined and slowly merged, forming a vast and hazy chaotic world, devoid of any concept of time and space, disordered and chaotic, a gray expanse.

The disciples were trapped almost without any resistance. Amidst the swirling chaos, they were suddenly bound by layers of invisible forces, bearing a heavy, mountain-like pressure. Their soul power was suppressed, and their movements seemed to be slowed down by time.
