The two instantly realized that Nangong Lingyun's personality might have a 'slight' difference from what they had imagined.
Are twenty god-bestowed spirit rings a lot?
It's not a question of quantity; for some second or third-rate Divinities, they might not even be able to accomplish this in the short term.
Under normal circumstances, even a Main God would only reward one to a successor who is likely to pass their trials.
One must know that the distance between the God Realm and Douluo Star is at least tens of billions of kilometers. Over such a vast distance, the energy transmission suffers almost complete loss.
A single hundred-thousand-year spirit ring would cost a Divinity nearly ten million years' worth of power.
Divine force is certainly stronger than spirit power, but it's not something to be wasted like this.
The Shura God King's face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
The words 'He wouldn't be thinking of freeloading, would he?' forced all his unspoken words back down his throat, choking him until he was about to explode.
If it weren't for the fact that almost the entire upper echelon of Douluo Continent was gathered in the adjacent dimension space,
He really wanted to teach this kid a lesson, directly admitting, 'Yes, I plan to freeload, what can you do about it?'
To let him know what true shamelessness really is.
The others in the hall also exchanged glances, as if they had countless complaints they wanted to voice but didn't know how to start.
As Gods, ruling over one hundred and eight worlds, living eternally, they had seen countless scenes, right?
But they had never seen this before.
Blatantly extorting a God King, and the Shura God King, known for his ruthlessness and killing intent, at that, was truly a once-in-a-lifetime event.
No wonder Destruction said his successor's personality was stubborn, and he didn't even dare ask him for a small favor.
Was this merely stubbornness? It was simply lawless! Having such a successor was truly vexing.
Fortunately, the Sea God suddenly stepped in to defuse the situation, saying:
"Shura, let him go to Sea God Island. I have a foundation in the Human Realm and can directly convert faith power remotely.
Twenty god-bestowed spirit rings aren't a big problem."
The Shura God King gave the Sea God a grateful look,
Then, manipulating his avatar in the lower realm, he said expressionlessly, as if nothing had happened, "I will inform Destruction and Life of the assessment location later. Go to Sea God Island to get the god-bestowed spirit rings. Now, release him."
He originally thought that this would maintain his God King's prestige,
But unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Nangong Lingyun suddenly slapped his thigh, his face filled with incomparable regret.
Then, one sentence nearly made Shura explode with anger.
"Crap, I'm going to lose out!"
As his seemingly frustrated voice faded,
In the Heaven Palace,
A group of God Kings and Main Gods immediately burst into laughter, collapsing and clutching their stomachs.
Gods have the ability to control their emotions and not reveal them at all, but unless necessary, they prefer to show their true nature.
What is the point of becoming a God? Besides longevity, isn't it to be free and unrestrained and do as one pleases?
"Puhahaha, hahahaha…"
"Destruction and Life, this successor of yours really has character. However, it is often only such people who can truly succeed."
"666, he's going to lose out! Ehehehehehe, Shura probably wants to kill someone, right?"
"Speaking of which, what does he need so many spirit rings for?"
"I think I roughly know why. Even Nangong Lingyun's protector has a full set of hundred-thousand-year spirit rings now."
"Destruction and Life, you two haven't had it easy lately, have you? Hehehehehe…"
—
Nangong Lingyun's soliloquy continued,
"I knew it, a dignified God King, supreme being, with the power to create and transform, and with the authority to suppress countless worlds, what are a few broken spirit rings?
It's like peasants thinking the emperor uses a golden hoe to till the land and eats fried buns every meal. In the end, they are just sitting in a well, looking at the sky.
I need to learn a lesson next time."
As he said this, he looked at the Asura God with hopeful eyes, slightly embarrassed, and said:
"Um… Your Excellency God King, can you increase the price?"
Hardened,
His fists hardened.
Shura felt his fists instantly harden, rock solid.
The others in Heaven Palace laughed even louder.
Destruction and Life looked at each other, suddenly realizing they might have made a wrong decision just now.
Nangong Lingyun's talent was indeed monstrous, but being tainted by such a greedy personality was not a good thing.
Also, how did he get his spirit rings? It was still unclear.
It was obviously not Shura, and Evil and Goodness didn't seem likely either. The other Main Gods basically didn't have this ability.
Could it be related to some conspiracy?
The Title Douluo in the dimensional space, as well as the Clear Sky Sect disciples in the distance.
Although they obediently knelt on the ground, not daring to move,
They were already shocked by Nangong Lingyun's boldness. Chatting and bargaining with the legendary Gods was something they had never dared to imagine before.
Tang San felt a great relief in his heart. With the Shura God's intervention and guarantee, this crisis would finally be overcome.
Ning Fengzhi suddenly felt somewhat grateful that he hadn't antagonized the Kaiyuan Sect in the past.
Also, Rongrong's move was truly the right one to make.
Bibi Dong felt a pang of disappointment.
She had always thought that she was gifted, unmatched in the entire continent.
Twin spirits, Innate Full Soul Power, Slaughter City's Slaughter God, Pope of Spirit Hall, Rakshasa God's successor.
Any one of these was enough to be proud of.
But when she saw Nangong Lingyun breaking through to the Spirit Emperor realm at a young age, and even suppressing Tang Chen, who was stronger than her, with a nearly forty-level cultivation gap,
She suddenly realized what it meant to be ignorant and narrow-minded, and what true heaven-defying talent really was.
In addition, why were the spirit rings of other people's successors so red that they were dazzling, and even Qian Daoliu, the High Priest, could have eight black and one red,
It seemed that her Rakshasa God had hardly rewarded her with anything other than divine force affinity?
…
"Cannot."
Shura squeezed out two words from between his teeth with a dark face, and directly retracted his avatar into the blood sword.
He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would not be able to resist descending to Douluo Continent and going on a rampage.
The God King finally left, and everyone slowly raised their heads. After a moment of relief, their expressions changed.
Confusion, contemplation, shock, and a sense of surviving a disaster, etc., were all present.
But Nangong Lingyun knew that Shura's consciousness was still there,
Not only him, but the entire God Realm, probably all the Gods were watching this scene.
He hesitated whether to continue with the plan to destroy Tang Hao and the others.
Although the other party's conditions did not mention other Title Douluo, as Tang Chen's direct grandson, blood relatives, and important subordinates, whom he was trying to protect,
Killing them in front of him would be too humiliating for the God King.
Especially Bing Qing Yu Jie, this chess piece was probably the real reason for Shura's intervention.
Limit Douluo were certainly rare, but the cost for a God King to cultivate one was not as great as imagined.
But if he let them go…
Where would he put his face?
After the establishment of the country, those opponents would definitely gather under the Clear Sky Sect, so how would the subsequent plan proceed?
