Soul Land: Raiden Shogun Is My Martial Soul

Chapter 237: Asura God: This is it... I'm doomed!

The body turned to dust, returning to dust and earth.

"What... what is this?"

"It's terrifying. In just a moment, those Fallen Ones... they've turned into nothing but scraps!"

"What is that thing on the captain of the Emperor Battle Team's right hand?"

The crowd stared at Kong in confusion. Such a soul skill was beyond anything they could imagine.

Was this really a soul skill?

"I can't make any sense of this Emperor Battle Team captain. Competing against us with his strength is like bullying children!"

The battle had essentially concluded, leaving everyone time to chat idly.

With this wave, all the Fallen Ones had been wiped out in an instant. Wasn't that the end of the fight?

"A Soul Saint? No, it's more than that. His power isn't something an ordinary Soul Saint could even begin to compare to!"

"An average Soul Saint wouldn't last a single breath against him!"

"This is terrifying! What kind of soul skill is this? Why is it so horrifying? This can't be real! I must be dreaming!"

As someone lamented, the blood-red sun began moving slowly back toward Kong. Its pace seemed excruciatingly slow, making seconds feel like years.

In reality, it took only about three seconds for the blood-red sun to return to Kong's right hand, where it was swiftly absorbed by the Asura Demon Claw.

Simultaneously, Kong's aura changed once more. From level 78, his soul power rose effortlessly to level 79.

Mid-stage level 79, late-stage…

Level 80!

Without any bottleneck, Kong's soul power had reached level 80!

At that moment, a bolt of violet lightning descended from the sky, striking Kong directly.

The Engulfing Lightning, which had been withdrawn earlier, reappeared beside Kong, floating mid-air.

At the same time, seven soul rings materialized, revealing their true colors.

Red, red, red, red, red, red, red...

Seven entirely red soul rings. These weren't ordinary 100,000-year soul rings. Each of these soul rings bore seven blood-red patterns, indicating their true age—700,000 years!

"...??????..."

Silence fell. Even those gravely injured were momentarily speechless.

Their horrified gazes fixated on the scene. Their eyes confirmed it as reality, but their minds were full of disbelief.

Seven 100,000-year soul rings. Seven!

What had appeared as violet soul rings earlier now revealed themselves to be 100,000-year soul rings!

Just then, energy began to gather on the Engulfing Lightning. It soon transformed into a single violet soul ring!

Another thunderous boom echoed across the sky. This time, the violet lightning struck the Engulfing Lightning instead of Kong.

The single violet "soul ring" transformed at that moment into a red soul ring!

Along with this transformation, each of the eight red soul rings gained an additional blood-red pattern—800,000 years!

With the formation of the eighth soul ring, Kong's soul power surged once more.

Level 81, level 82, level 83…

"Is this how he gets his soul rings?"

Everyone exchanged stunned glances, utterly unable to process what they were seeing. Words failed them.

A thunderous crash from the sky, followed by a lightning strike, and Kong gained a 100,000-year soul ring!

Such a thing—forget witnessing it—they wouldn't even dare imagine it!

In the Divine Realm, the Asura God's expression darkened, his face grave. These deities from the otherworld were exceedingly powerful.

No wonder they could produce such a monstrous talent!

Eight 100,000-year soul rings, each at the 800,000-year level. Even during his mortal days, he couldn't achieve such a feat.

Of course, his successor could never withstand such a soul ring configuration either.

This completely defied logic!

Even among gods, the physical strength of most divine bodies couldn't compare to Kong's current form!

Suddenly, the Asura God stood up, raised his head to the sky, and said, "Hmph, I've already conceded. I merely attached the Asura God Power and the Asura Inheritance to an external soul bone!"

"If he doesn't use it, he can simply discard the external soul bone!"

The Asura God spoke in the most resolute tone, yet his words carried the faintest trace of fear.

Because, at some point, a pair of eyes—half demonic, half divine—had appeared above his divine palace, staring directly at him!

The other party remained silent, and the Asura God, who hadn't felt nervous in countless years, suddenly found cold sweat slowly dripping from his forehead!

Even when facing the Dragon God back then, he had never encountered such an overwhelming presence!

He couldn't afford to take this lightly. A single misstep might spark a catastrophic war in the Divine Realm, potentially even more devastating than the Dragon God War!

Not long after, the pair of eyes seemed satisfied with his behavior. The void closed again, and the eyes vanished into nothingness.

The Asura God stood frozen in place for a long time, speechless.

He had originally assumed that this deity from the otherworld was no more than an ordinary god, perhaps on par with the likes of the Thunder God or Sea God—just a first-tier deity.

Snatching away the inheritance of such a god didn't weigh on his conscience in the slightest.

But reality had shown him he had severely underestimated the situation!

The other party was very likely an existence far more terrifying than the Dragon God!

"This is it. I'm doomed!"

The Asura God was filled with regret. He had essentially handed over his divine inheritance as a package deal, and yet…

Yet the one who received it was completely beyond his control!

Any signs of rebellion, and he knew he wouldn't meet a good end.

The Asura God's thoughts were in turmoil, his emotions a complex mix.

After a long while, he finally sat back down, sighed, and muttered, "Forget it, it's time to truly retire."

"I have a premonition that the Divine Realm is on the brink of disaster. Even the God Kings will not be immune to the risk of falling. Passing on my godly position and leaving the Divine Realm might be the only way out."

"Giving him the position of Asura God doesn't tarnish its name. Perhaps in ten thousand years, he might reach the same heights as the Dragon God once did, relying on the Asura God Power."

"My own talent is limited. If not for the Dragon God's deliberate actions back then…"

He paused, then shook his head. "I'm tired. I won't think about it anymore. I've worked hard for the Divine Realm for so many years; it's time to step down and rest."

As the Asura God spoke, his tone was filled with melancholy and resignation, yet there was also a hint of relief.

On second thought, he might have still gained something out of this!

The inheritor of such a powerful being had essentially given him… no, one hand to work with, right?

Thinking of it this way, he figured he'd come out ahead after all!

"Yes, I've made a profit! What's there to feel down about!?"

"When he breaks through to the Title Douluo level, I'll hand him the super divine weapon, the Asura Demon Sword…"

The scene shifts back to Douluo Continent, to Kong's side.

Kong had no idea what had transpired. At this moment, he wasn't excited about his soul power breakthrough. Instead, his expression was extremely peculiar.

The Asura God… turned out to also be an Evil God!

The only difference was that the Asura God could control his evil thoughts and fully command the laws of slaughter, avoiding becoming a slave to divine power.

This was something Bibi Dong, the inheritor of the Rakshasa God, could not achieve. She killed for the sake of killing, becoming a slave to the Rakshasa God Power…
