Chapter 140: Asura God's Scheme, Searching for Tang San's Soul
Douluo God Realm, inside the Asura God Palace.
A figure enveloped in tangible killing intent stood there, cold as an eternal frozen prison. Wherever his gaze reached, all things fell silent.
Silver-white long hair danced wildly, accentuating a pair of crimson vertical pupils that seemed bottomless, concealing a sharp chill capable of slaying gods and annihilating demons.
Clad in dark crimson-gold patterned Asura Demon Armor, the surface of the armor flowed with slaughter runes, with ferocious bone spikes protruding from the shoulders and back—every inch proclaiming supreme authority.
The Asura Demonic Sword in his hand trembled slightly, enough to stir the baleful aura between heaven and earth.
At this moment, the figure emitting terrifying killing intent was filled with raging fury, and the boundless slaughter aura instantly covered the entire divine palace.
This figure was one of the five great God Kings of the Douluo God Realm and its law enforcer, Asura God.
The reason for his anger was that Tang San, the successor he had chosen in the Douluo Continent, had died, and the Luck Power he had injected into Tang San had returned to the Douluo Continent.
This caused his anger to surge instantly.
"How could this be? How could that Luck Power return to the Douluo Continent?"
While his fury soared, confusion flickered within Asura God's crimson eyes.
This was the Luck Power he had obtained by exploiting the Douluo Continent for countless years.
Originally, he had planned to inject this Luck Power into his chosen successor, Tang San, and then have him continue harvesting the Luck of the Douluo Continent.
But he had not expected that, with Tang San's death, the Luck Power he had previously acquired would directly return to the Douluo Continent.
Logically speaking, he had tampered with this Luck Power. Even if Tang San died, it should have been returned to him.
Yet now, not only had his chosen successor died, but the Luck Power in his possession had dissipated. Asura God felt nothing but frustration.
In truth, that Luck Power had not returned to the Douluo Continent but had already been used by Lin Chen.
However, due to the concealment of the diary system, the Asura God of the God Realm believed that the Luck Power had already returned to the Douluo Continent.
"Damn it… is this truly the plane where the Dragon God was born? As expected, it is not simple."
Asura God slammed his palm heavily against his throne, his heart filled with resentment.
In his mind, he had already concluded that this matter was the doing of the will of the Douluo Continent itself.
Otherwise, how could Tang San, comparable to a Child of Luck of the Douluo Continent, fall so easily? He had originally planned to use Tang San to personally intervene in the future battle of luck and seize the luck of the angel clan.
But now, this sudden development has completely disrupted his plans.
Moreover, he had not expected Tang San's father, Tang Hao, to be such trash—actually allowing his successor, Tang San, to die. Truly a useless failure.
After a while, the Asura God gradually calmed his anger.
He stood up from his throne and, with a flash, arrived at a region among the clouds.
His gaze pierced the endless void, directly fixed on the Douluo Continent, searching for the soul of his successor, Tang San.
As his vast divine sense swept across the entire Douluo Continent, it did not take long before he discovered a soul bearing a unique mark.
"Fortunately, I left a mark on Tang San's soul back then. Otherwise, finding his soul today would have been somewhat troublesome."
After locating Tang San's soul, a faint smile finally appeared on the Asura God's cold face.
Immediately after, the Asura God waved his hand, and Tang San's drifting soul from the Douluo Continent instantly crossed endless space, appearing within his palm.
Looking at the soul in his hand, with his thought, Tang San's soul—which had fallen into slumber due to death—slowly regained consciousness.
"Ahhh! Damn, Lin Chen! Even as a ghost, I won't let you off!"
The moment he awakened, Tang San's soul roared in rage, venting the hatred in his heart.
But very quickly, Tang San noticed the Asura God before him, radiating extreme killing intent, as well as his own floating and illusory body.
"Who are you? And where am I now?"
With confusion in his eyes, Tang San questioned the cold man before him.
He urgently wanted to understand his current situation and whether he could be reborn again.
Seeing that Tang San had regained awareness, the Asura God did not waste words and directly explained everything to him.
"My name is Asura God, the law enforcer of the Douluo God Realm."
"And you are the successor I have chosen. In the future, you may inherit my divine position, gain eternal life, and wield the authority of slaughter."
"Your rebirth in the Douluo Continent back then was my doing."
Asura God clearly explained his origin and the relationship between the two of them.
After hearing this, Tang San was greatly shocked. He had not expected that the true reason behind his rebirth was this great existence before him.
Nor had he expected that he would possess such an opportunity—to actually have the chance to inherit the divine position of such a terrifying powerhouse.
Although he did not know what level the Asura God stood at, eternal life and control over slaughter authority were things no Soul Master in the Douluo Continent could achieve.
At present, Tang San had only just entered the world of Soul Masters and did not yet know the concept of becoming a god at rank one hundred, so he was unaware that above Soul Masters lay the realm of God.
After learning of Asura God's power and his connection to him, Tang San's eyes filled with excitement and anticipation. He then eagerly asked:
"Lord Asura God, your abilities are boundless. May I ask if you can allow me to be revived again in the Douluo Continent?"
"I, Tang San, still have great unresolved enmity. I wish to return to the Douluo Continent and take my revenge!"
Hearing Tang San's request, Asura God nodded and did not refuse.
However, now that Tang San no longer possessed Luck Power, he intended to make Tang San grow quickly so that Tang San could inherit his divine position sooner, allowing him to leave this God Realm, which lacked freedom.
At the same time, he would also use Tang San to obtain the Luck Power of the Douluo Continent, not only reclaiming the Luck Power he had lost but also seizing the Luck Power belonging to the Douluo Continent within Spirit Hall.
Luck Power was of great help to a god's cultivation, especially when it was the Luck Power of the Douluo Continent.
After all, this was the plane where the Dragon God was born. The Luck Power it possessed was incomparable to that of other planes.
How powerful was the Dragon God? Asura God knew this very well. If the Dragon God were still alive, all the gods of the Douluo God Realm combined would not be enough to fight him.
Even setting aside the Dragon God, the nine great Dragon Kings under him were already beyond the Douluo God Realm's ability to contend with.
Against weaker Dragon Kings, Asura God could still manage, but against top-tier Dragon Kings such as the Light Dragon King, Dark Dragon King, and Mountain Dragon King, even he, along with the God of Evil and Goddess of Kindness, might not be their opponents.
One could imagine just how powerful the dragon race once was and how terrifying the Dragon God had been as their ruler.
Thus, the Luck Power of the Douluo Continent was extremely precious.
After passing on the Asura God position to Tang San, his strength would inevitably decline by one level. However, Luck Power could enhance his strength, making it crucial to him.
