Douluo Continent: I possess astonishing wisdom as I control energy!

"It's a gamble you have to accept the consequences."

Kong Ming said calmly, "Within my capabilities, I have done everything I can to prepare."

"An automatically triggered method involving multiple defensive Limit Douluos, and two top-tier combatants whom I absolutely trust can descend in an instant."

"I took precautions in advance and had backup plans. I calculated all the possibilities as much as possible and designed corresponding solutions."

"But if I've done all that and still can't escape death, then it just means I'm not as skilled as others, I lost the bet, and I'm willing to accept defeat."

A very faint ripple flashed in the eyes of the God of Destruction.

That's appreciation.

In fact, ever since his divine position was altered, and consequently the divine position of his wife, the goddess of life, was also altered, he summoned the Seven Deadly Sins under his command.

The seven first-level deities all turned their gazes toward a certain person, and then they reached an almost unanimous conclusion—"The successor to the divine throne has been found."

Without a doubt, at this moment, the young man in front of him possesses an absolute compatibility with all the divine positions!

This is an unprecedented situation!

From that day on, he began to take notice of the boy.

When Da Ming initially prepared to intervene, he was actually prepared to protect him. However, he hadn't expected the young man to possess so many skills.

With a defensive soul tool and two powerful protectors, it was all unexpected. Of course, in the end, he still had to take action.

but

The God of Destruction narrowed his eyes and said slowly, in a tone similar to a teacher testing a student, "I don't believe you didn't have some backup plan."

Kong Ming'an blinked, but his posture became more relaxed. Without much hesitation, he spoke:

"I merely fragmented a portion of my remnant soul, which contained all my knowledge, beforehand. They will escape the Douluo plane at the moment of my death, in a state similar to Elder Yi's, using the undead demiplane as a springboard."

"They will grow madly and recklessly, driven by the underlying logic of 'revenge,' until they reach the level of a first-level god or even a god-king. Then, they will begin their suicidal revenge against the 'targets' I have pre-set, a relentless pursuit until death."

"Besides that, there is also..."

The God of Destruction silently watched Kong Ming'an as the young man articulated his almost "grand" revenge plan with remarkable clarity. A slight twitch appeared at the corner of his mouth.

If you can't survive, then make sure no one else can survive either.

The God of Destruction remained silent for a moment, his voice revealing neither joy nor anger: "I think you're being a bit too extreme."

"Okay."

Kong Ming'an smiled slightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing with the assessment, giving the impression that he knew he was wrong but simply wouldn't change.

Tsk. This kid is really a damn good-for-nothing!

A hint of appreciation appeared in the God of Destruction's eyes.

Immediately, he changed the subject and directly issued a recruitment notice:

"I am the God of Destruction, one of the five great god-kings of the divine realm."

"Your temperament, wisdom, and this... well, your determination to perish together, are very suitable for my divine position. Would you be willing to accept my inheritance?"

"If you agree, I will grant you a divine test. If you pass the test, you will be able to inherit the position of the God of Destruction!"

Kong Ming'an fell silent.

This sudden recruitment far exceeded his expectations, and it was also very tempting.

The God-King of Destruction, one of the five God-King positions in the current God Realm, is undoubtedly more powerful than the vast majority of first-level god positions.

If you inherit it, you'll definitely soar to new heights!

However, Kong Ming'an was more puzzled than anything else by such an enticing offer.

Doesn't he know what kind of person he is? He basically won't do anything to kill someone unless absolutely necessary.

In his own words, he was a bit too kind.

His personality, while not entirely incompatible with the position of the God of Destruction, is certainly not the best match.

Therefore, it is not so much his temperament and wisdom, but rather...

Wuhun.

The "Energy" martial soul's characteristics allow him to control all the energy that belongs to him.

The destructive power above the God-King of Destruction's divine position could most likely be categorized as energy by him.

Therefore, he can be said to be perfectly suited for the position of the God of Destruction.

Similarly, it can be concluded that he is in harmony with all divine positions.

Kong Ming'an paused for a moment, glanced back at his own logic, but found nothing wrong. His expression became slightly more interesting.

He thought of a possibility, a very interesting possibility.

Instead of responding to the God of Destruction's offer of recruitment, Kong Ming'an tentatively spoke up:

"Your Majesty, may I say a few words?"

"Say it."

The God of Destruction spoke calmly and remained composed; he was determined to bring this young man into his camp today.

If the other party refuses, he will simply bring Xiao Lü along and directly offer the inheritance of the two God King positions. He doesn't believe the other party will refuse!

what?

Having two divine positions can lead to conflicts between them, causing immense suffering to the holder of both positions. If that's the case, then he's harming others.

Please? That only happens when the dual-god holder is mediocre and has very low compatibility with both godhoods!

The divine realm allows individuals to possess dual divine positions. As long as your divine positions have a high compatibility and you can control them, no god will interfere if you simultaneously possess ten divine positions.

After all, that's your skill!

For example, a certain sea god who was forced into the position of god-king by the former Asura god is an example of a situation where the two god positions are not very compatible, and the sea god was instead eroded and affected by the god position.

But the boy in front of him clearly wouldn't do that.

He even looked forward to the young man simultaneously holding the divine positions of "destruction" and "life," hoping that he could recreate the glory of "creation."

The God of Destruction pondered this, and at the same time, Kong Ming'an slowly spoke:

"For some reason, I know a little about the divine realm, and I also have some understanding of your potential destruction, Your Majesty."

The God of Destruction remained calm. Although he couldn't see the kid's memories, he was at most a "transmigrator from another world" or a lucky "reborn person." It wasn't that he hadn't seen it before, and knowing about the God Realm wasn't a big deal.

"I've heard from some rumors that you and the 'Goddess of Life' have been married for many years but have never had any children. The reason, it turns out, is that you are impotent."

"Boy, do you know what you're saying?" The God of Destruction frowned, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes.

Kong Mingan remained calm and composed.

"But perhaps I can cure it."

"?!"

The God of Destruction gasped, his tone solemn.

"Explain in detail!"

Chapter 35 Sea God Tang San, do you know your crime?!

"The principle is actually very simple. It is known that Your Majesty, due to your own destructive power, has lost your 'life'."

"Furthermore, since you and the Goddess of Life are both God-Kings, and your power levels are the same, even if the Goddess of Life cannot neutralize your destructive power, and can only annihilate each other,..."

"In such a state of annihilation, it is naturally impossible for offspring to be born."

So what's your solution?

"My first option is to temporarily seal away your destructive power, simply by lowering your power level from the God-King level, or even just temporarily regressing you to the level of a first-level deity."

"At this moment, the balance between you and the Goddess of Life is broken, and the power of the Goddess of Life can easily dispel the destruction within your body."

"In this state, although your strength may be greatly weakened, the possibility of conceiving offspring will be greatly increased."

"Um"

The God of Destruction pondered for a moment and realized that this method was feasible!

It was just a temporary self-imposed restriction of his power. He wasn't some god-king who couldn't even control his own divine position. For a born god like him, it wasn't difficult, and could even be said to be very simple!

Is it really that simple?

The God of Destruction remained calm and composed: "And what about the second one?"

Kong Ming'an smiled and said, "As you probably know, my martial soul is a little special; it can control all the energy that belongs to me."

"In theory, if I possessed the power of destruction, I would also be able to analyze, understand, and study the corresponding solutions."

"Of course, I can't do it now, but if I grow to the level of a god, it shouldn't be too difficult."

As Kong Ming'an finished speaking, the God of Destruction sensed something different in his words.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at Kong Ming'an, and after a moment, he came to a conclusion:

"You want to use helping me solve my problem of having offspring as leverage to make me protect you until I become a god?"

"Destroy Your Majesty's shining example."

"..." The God of Destruction frowned.

"I don't understand. This doesn't conflict with your inheriting my divine position. If you become my successor, I will naturally protect you."

"Moreover, by inheriting the divine position, you will naturally be able to control the power of destruction. Isn't that simpler than waiting to become a god yourself and then spending time analyzing my power of destruction?"

"You even have a demiplane, so you can bring everyone around you to the God Realm and enjoy eternal life. Isn't that great?"

The God of Destruction was somewhat puzzled.

"That's really good."

Kong Ming'an did not refute this, because no matter how you looked at it, he could simply accept the inheritance of the God of Destruction and directly receive the protection of the God of Destruction.

After receiving protection, he could temporarily set aside his divine examinations and continue his research, eventually becoming a god naturally. This was also a possible path.

There was absolutely no need for him to make a deal with the God of Destruction in such a roundabout way; it was unnecessary.

but.

"Just consider it a habit of mine. I've always liked 'mutual benefit,' or rather, 'fair trade,' which makes me feel less burdened and more relaxed."

Kong Ming'an smiled slightly, his eyes fixed on the God of Destruction: "So, what are your thoughts on this deal?"

"..."

The God of Destruction fell silent for a moment, then a rare, slight smile appeared on his lips.

He looked at Kong Ming'an, his admiration growing stronger. "I accept your deal. I hope you won't disappoint me."

"Do your best."

"Do your best? Ha! I'll give you a month, which is thirty years in the Douluo Continent. If you still can't become a god by then, then you can just honestly inherit the position of the God of Destruction."

The God of Destruction waved his hand and gave a deadline.

Kong Ming'an's expression was strange, and for a moment there was a strange sense of déjà vu.

It feels like an elder is betting with the younger generation that if they don't make a name for themselves outside, they should come back and inherit the family business.

Good heavens. I've become the family heir? Can I smile crookedly now?

Kong Ming'an chuckled slightly, then nodded knowingly, "I understand."

The God of Destruction nodded in satisfaction; at this moment, he was increasingly pleased with a certain person.

Compared to some irresponsible Asura God who casually abandons his divine position and runs away, he will always put his successor through certain tests.

With the most important matters settled, the God of Destruction looked towards the distance.

There, Da Ming and Er Ming were suspended in mid-air, silently awaiting their judgment.

The God of Destruction remained silent, about to raise his hand, but the next moment, Kong Ming'an's voice rang out.

"Destroy Your Majesty."

"how?"
