Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Ten Ferocious Heavenly Horned Ant

To Dong Qing's disbelief, her hand pierced directly through her own chest, but she didn't see anything she should have seen. It was as if her hand had pierced through a void, without actually touching her flesh or those two mounds of fat.

About a second later.

The benevolent god-king [Blazing Flame] slowly drew out a ball of light shimmering with purplish-black light from this void space.

I don't know why.

The surrounding still void appeared incredibly fragile in the face of this purplish-black ball of light, as it moved outwards following the slender hand of the benevolent god-king [Blazing Flame].

The void crumbled, and space was annihilated.

Fortunately, the space has a self-repairing ability. Even though the purplish-black light cluster keeps causing damage, it can always be restored to its original state in the next second.

Noticing the puzzled look in Dongqing's eyes.

The benevolent God King [Blazing Flame] spoke up: "This is my late husband... the former evil God King, Ji Dong. The God King-level Law Origin he left behind was originally intended for me to help him take charge of the Underworld, so that he could devote himself to the Douluo God Realm, especially the power struggles within the God Realm Committee."

"Although the underworld was a world that he and I created together, it is clear that he only wanted to complete the divine test left by the first evil god king, and he did not like this world full of dead people."

"Now, this God-King level Law Source allows you, Dongqing, to temporarily use the Law Power of the Evil God-King position, just like me. With my help, as long as you absorb this God-King level Law Source, you can also temporarily take over the position of my late husband, the Evil God-King."

"Even in the future, after you successfully inherit the position of the Asura God King, you will be the first dual God King in the history of the Douluo God Realm, the first God King to possess two God King positions."

Done.

The benevolent god-king [Blazing Flame] reluctantly handed over the purplish-black orb of light.

However, Dongqing did not take it immediately, but instead cautiously took several steps back.

He wasn't afraid that the purplish-black light would harm him, but as a cautious man who valued his life, he harbored a basic skepticism towards everything and everything.

You guys didn't say anything about absorbing any laws or origins before. Is this woman going to pull some kind of resurrection trick?

wrong!

I don't seem to be a corpse. Could it be that evil isn't completely dead and has taken a liking to my strong body, wanting to use my body to reverse the cycle and be reborn?

Hmm, that's possible...

Think about this.

Dong Qing nodded to himself, thinking that it wasn't impossible.

But no matter what he was thinking, he still had a smile on his face, and with a quick glance, he said, "Kindness, that's not urgent. I still have some questions about the underworld that I'd like to ask you."

“East... Evil, you are my most important ally and my life’s most important ally. There’s no need to be so polite. Just say what you need to say.”

The benevolent God-King [Blazing Flame] was not unhappy that Dong Qing did not accept the God-King level Law Origin. She understood Dong Qing's thoughts and his concerns.

But she also believed that her sincerity would eventually earn the trust of the person in front of her, and in turn help her good sister and best friend, the God of Life, to stabilize the divine realm.

As for Dongqing's concerns...

First of all, let's not even mention that the evil god king [Ji Dong] was killed by the red flag. His soul and body have already been burned into nothingness, so he had no chance of being resurrected.

Moreover, even if she really had this idea, facing the terrifying protector behind Dong Qing, such an insidious thing could only remain a thought.

However, it must be said that Dongqing's cautious attitude is something that the kind-hearted god-king [Lieyan] should learn for the rest of her life, just like her late husband Ji Dong.

If only they had thought more carefully when the calamity of heaven descended, they wouldn't have been wiped out by the unknown force, leaving not even a trace of their ashes.

Although the kind-hearted god-king [Blazing Flame] initially suspected Dong Qing, believing that it was his protector who had caused the mysterious deaths of her late husband Ji Dong and the other two god-kings.

However, later, Dong Qing used his Supreme Treasure Technique, the Heaven-Covering Hand, to condense a huge humanoid phantom comparable to a Douluo Star, which dispelled Dong Qing's doubts.

She regarded this humanoid phantom, whose size was comparable to a planet and who could even stop time on an entire planet, as the protector who had always been hiding behind him.

As for the instantaneous annihilation by that unknown force, it is not the same power system as this humanoid phantom whose size is comparable to an entire planet.

The red flag uses an unconventional method of annihilation, while Dongqing's Supreme Treasure Technique, the Heaven-Covering Hand, is based on bloodline power; they are fundamentally two completely different power systems.

so.......

It's no wonder that the benevolent God-King [Blazing Flame] misunderstood the protector and even dismissed the idea that her late husband Ji Dong's death was related to Dong Qing.

Sometimes, things can easily lead to misunderstandings due to unforeseen circumstances. However, for the time being, this misunderstanding is actually a good thing for both of them.

Just like Dongqing is still unaware that the three great god-kings of that time had their skulls smashed by the little red flag, their bodies and souls destroyed, and they had no idea that they were the murderers of the kind god-king [Blazing Flame].

However, this statement cannot be made so absolutely. After all, it was the little red flag that took the initiative to protect its master, and it was the evil god king who made the first move. So, it's really not fair to call it the murderer of her husband; at most, it can be said that she bears some responsibility.

As for this responsibility, it's not a big one. At most, Dongqing has the responsibility to help the former evil god king [Ji Dong] take care of the widow of the benevolent god king [Lie Yan].

.........

“Then I’ll be frank. In my opinion, the Underworld is no less important than the God Realm, especially the Six Paths of Reincarnation. Doesn’t anyone here want to compete for it?” Dong Qing said, stroking his chin.

Upon hearing this...

The benevolent god-king [Blazing Flame] shook his head and said softly, "No, no, no, evil. You may not understand the underworld. The Six Paths of Reincarnation are projections that naturally exist here. Behind them is a special existence that we cannot control or understand."

"I don't know, nor do I know what level of being its true controller is. My late husband and I only created the Underworld around the Six Paths of Reincarnation, a place that can accommodate many souls for a long time."

"In a way, it was more like a predetermined mission, a matter of divine assistance. Neither he nor I spent too much effort to successfully open up the underworld around the projection of the Six Paths of Reincarnation and obtain the super artifact, the Scales of Judgment."

"The scales of justice?" Dong Qing asked curiously.

"I believe the messenger of the underworld has already told you that it can impartially judge all the sins and merits of living beings in their lifetime, and can also review all the events of all living beings' lives," explained the benevolent god-king [Blazing Flame].

"Can I use it now?" Dongqing continued to ask.

"Not for now. Your current identity as Evil is something I forcibly bestowed upon you. Only by absorbing this God-King level Law Origin can you truly obtain the God-King identity of Evil God-King."

The benevolent god-king [Blazing Flame] opened his palm, revealing a ball of light that shone with a purplish-black glow.

"It's too ugly, I don't want it!" Dongqing waved his hand and said.

"How about this?"

The benevolent god-king [Blazing Flame] reached out and gently waved his hand over the purplish-black light, which instantly transformed into a bright golden light.

"I'm sorry, but if it's unavoidable, then forget it. I never absorb rubbish."

Dong Qing's tone remained firm. He wasn't stupid; he wouldn't even absorb a 100,000-year-old soul bone, so why should he absorb these random things now?

Chapter 617, I actually couldn't see it very clearly either.

"Evil, tell me, what will it take for you to believe that I truly wouldn't intentionally harm you?"

The kind-hearted God-King [Blazing Flame] was somewhat weary, but she also fully understood Dongqing's concerns.

"Kindness—you shouldn't ask me that question; you should ask yourself. Right now, you need my strength. How can you gain my trust?"

Dong Qing shrugged indifferently. He really didn't care about the position of God King. Even if he wasn't God King, who would dare to provoke him now?

No one, not even a person with a normal brain, would provoke a terrifying being whose physical strength alone is enough to rival that of a god-king.

Regarding the issue of trust raised by Dongqing, the benevolent god-king [Blazing Flame] hesitated for a moment before asking in a low voice, "Then... I will inscribe the mark of the scales of judgment on you to contain this god-king-level source of law. Can you accept that?"

Seeing that Dongqing remained silent, she continued, "This is the only way for you to inherit the position of the Evil God King. Although the process is a bit troublesome, with your strength, you can remove the Judgment Scales mark at any time, just like the Blood Sword mark you have now."

It's no wonder that the benevolent god-king [Blazing Flame] is so humble.

Dong Qing didn't gain God-King level combat power only after becoming a God-King; rather, he first gained God-King level combat power before someone invited him to become a God-King. This order of events is very important.

So he really can be completely indifferent. On the contrary, people are eager to beg him for kindness and life itself. Otherwise, given the temper of the former Flame Queen of the Inner Earth, she would have turned against him long ago.

At this time.

Upon hearing the kind god-king [Blazing Flame]'s sincere words, Dong Qing took a deep breath, lowered his head, and thought carefully. He felt that this was the best solution.

A few seconds later.

Dong Qing stopped and nodded slightly, then looked at the benevolent god-king [Blazing Flame].

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

"Since you've agreed, put your hand out."

"Oh."

"Not this hand."

Which hand do you want?

"The hand you use to eat."

Under the watchful gaze of the benevolent god-king [Blazing Flame], Dongqing slowly extended his right hand.

This is a hand that looks normal, but the patterns on the palm are extremely complex.

next moment.

The benevolent god-king [Blazing Flame] grabbed Dong Qing's wrist, and his body began to radiate boundless light. God-king level laws surrounded his back, forming a huge halo.

The light wheel is pure white and rotates at a constant speed, occasionally and unconsciously tearing apart the surrounding space.

The pitch-black spatial rift vanished in the blink of an eye, quickly repaired by the underworld's self-circulating system.

Seeing this scene.

It would be a lie to say Dong Qing wasn't envious. Regardless of the strength of these God-Kings, their pomp and circumstance were absolutely top-notch, befitting the title of God-King.

“Evil, if you want to use the power of the laws inherent in the position of Evil God King in the future, you will need to communicate with the God King-level law source within the Judgment Scale Mark.”

The benevolent God-King [Blazing Flame] tightly gripped Dong Qing's right wrist while carefully manipulating the halo formed by his God-King level laws.

She slowly guided the ball of divine-king-level law light, which had turned from purplish-black to golden yellow, gradually merging it into the Judgment Scales mark.

The Scales of Judgment are the divine artifacts used to pass on the divine throne to the evil god-king. They belong to one of the five super artifacts of the Divine Realm Council.

Although its destructive power is far inferior to that of the Asura Blood Sword, its functionality is unmatched by the Asura Blood Sword.

Because of this.

Only the benevolent God-King [Blazing Flame] could use the power of the Scales of Judgment to leave a divine artifact mark on Dong Qing's wrist, which was used to contain the power of the God-King level law origin.

Once the original source of the God-King level laws left behind by the former Evil God-King Ji Dong is fully integrated into this artifact mark, Dong Qing will naturally become the true Evil God-King.

From then on.

Dongqing will become the Lord of the Underworld, one of the five great god-kings of the God Realm Committee, and wield the truly supreme power in this world.

A few hours later.

After the last trace of the God-King level law essence merged into her, the Kind God-King [Blazing Flame] was completely exhausted and even needed Dong Qing to support her tightly so that she could barely stand up.
