He spoke calmly, "Your body is filled with impurities, and your spirit is polluted. I can feel a very strong aura of evil."
After studying the Dark Devil God Tiger's black pearl for many days, Yang Yunhai had become extremely familiar with the evil attribute. Now, with his spirit power amplified by the vast forest, he was even more sensitive to the foul aura clinging to Bibi Dong.
And it was strong—far too strong!
He didn't know what had been going through Bibi Dong's mind lately to make the evil aura become so intense. Perhaps it had to do with seeing Yu Xiaogang again, or maybe it was connected to the Rakshasa God, or other hidden factors. In the original path, Bibi Dong's character grew more and more extreme until she even entertained thoughts of destroying the world. Perhaps this was the very same process taking shape.
Whatever the cause, this was the chance to cleanse it.
"If I haven't guessed wrong, you devoured him back then, didn't you? And you've been inheriting that god position through some special method. When you underwent the Hell Road trial, you must have been influenced as well." Yang Yunhai's voice remained steady. "If you don't want these impurities to keep interfering with your cultivation—or even your mind—don't resist. With this life energy, I can help cleanse you."
Dugu Bo and the other two exchanged looks but chose silence.
Bibi Dong clenched her teeth. In the end, she didn't resist—she couldn't—but she did snap coldly, "You'd better not play any tricks."
"Would I need to?" Yang Yunhai said lightly.
'Auntie, think about how old you are. Which of my wives isn't younger and more beautiful than you?'
With that sarcastic thought, he gathered the collective spiritual force and poured the tide of life energy into her body.
"Ah!" Bibi Dong's face turned ashen, a groan escaping her lips. It felt as if her whole body had been cast into a vast ocean, every inch battered and corroded by the waves—spirit, martial soul, everything. Something inside her was being peeled away piece by piece.
Wisps of gray aura seeped out of her body and dissipated. The next second, a spider-shaped mark glimmered faintly between her brows, purple light spreading outward.
"Hmm? The divine will of the Rakshasa God? Such terrifying malice!" Yang Yunhai immediately sensed it.
"Rakshasa God, if you want this inheritance to continue, you'd better do it properly. Pass it down cleanly and leave. Otherwise, abandon it now—or I'll strip your will away right here. Or…" His tone sharpened, "wait until I and my wives ascend to the God Realm. Then I'll hound you across worlds until you're destroyed. Reincarnate, cultivate again, I'll still find you and bring you the cruelest calamities!"
"How dare you threaten me!" In the God Realm, the Rakshasa God shot to her feet, trembling with fury.
"Humph. That's the price for toying with mortals." Elsewhere, in a blood-red palace, the Asura God raised a brow. With a flick of his finger, the Death God Domain that clung to Bibi Dong's martial soul was ignited. A surge of killing intent erupted around her body.
"Asura, don't you dare!" the Rakshasa God cried, face twisting, rushing to push her divine will harder.
Two terrifying forces clashed violently inside Bibi Dong's body.
"Yang Yunhai, what did you do to me!?" she screamed, veins bulging across her forehead, her face contorted with pain.
Dugu Bo's group was dumbstruck.
The three Thousand Ton Ant Emperors shivered in terror.
"Asura God?" Yang Yunhai blinked in surprise, then narrowed his eyes. Of course—Bibi Dong had passed through the Hell Road and gained the Death God Domain. In a sense, she was already a candidate for the Asura God's inheritance.
Without hesitation, he poured even more life energy into stabilizing her body so it wouldn't collapse between the two opposing powers. At the same time, he drove his immense spirit force directly against the Rakshasa will lodged in her brow.
"Mother-in-law, endure it. Your son-in-law will help you switch exams! Looks like the Asura God inside the Slaughter City is fighting the Rakshasa God over you." His words rang deliberately sharp.
Anger always sharpened the will.
"Shut up!" Hearing him call her mother-in-law, Bibi Dong's rage spiked. Her spiritual power surged violently.
The purple light spreading from her brow faltered.
"Damn it! Damn it!" In the God Realm, the Rakshasa God trembled with fury.
"What garbage Rakshasa God—no god-bestowed rings, endless delay, filling you with malice, polluting your mind, shackling your cultivation. Mother-in-law, such a god position isn't worth inheriting!" Yang Yunhai pressed.
The Asura God, seeing an opportunity, unleashed his divine power. Bolstered by Yang Yunhai's continuous mental assault, his vast will crushed the Rakshasa's purple light, scattering it instantly.
A neat revenge. The Asura God remembered well how the Rakshasa had interfered when Tang Chen tried to inherit his position. Now he had snatched away her inheritor and settled that old score.
A moment later, a blood-red sigil blossomed at Bibi Dong's brow.
"Asura God!" The Rakshasa God froze in disbelief, then snarled in rage before vanishing from her palace.
"Success." Yang Yunhai's eyes flickered.
Inside her mind, a voice intoned: The Second Trial of Asura.
Bibi Dong's face stiffened. Complicated emotions swirled in her gaze as she looked at Yang Yunhai. "Don't think I'll thank you!" she snapped coldly.
Yang Yunhai smiled faintly. "Doesn't matter."
What a disastrous relationship between son-in-law and mother-in-law… Dugu Bo and the others sighed silently.
'Some things even a fair judge wouldn't touch,' they thought.
"Did you receive new trial instructions?" Yang Yunhai asked.
Bibi Dong frowned, but after a moment, spoke evenly, "Second Trial."
He nodded. 'So the Asura wants to redo the whole thing. Makes sense. First trial must've been the Hell Road, with the Death God Domain as reward. Now he wants to reset her outlook and reshape her step by step.'
At least it wasn't like the Sea God, who just handed out freebies at the end.
Yang Yunhai slowly lowered her to the ground. The Asura God's intervention had actually done him a favor—sweeping away all the impurities and Rakshasa malice in her in one go. Brutal but effective.
He could now clearly sense Bibi Dong's cultivation had surged to rank 99, even though she still lacked two soul rings. The advantage of twin martial souls was undeniable.
"Is this… the power of a God? So terrifying…" The Thousand Ton Ant Emperors trembled, awed and fearful.
But they also looked at Yang Yunhai with admiration. He had contended alongside one god against another. Following him seemed safer than ever.
Yang Yunhai swept his spiritual sense across them and saw they had all advanced to 100,000-year cultivation. Their bodies had grown from three meters to five, wings splitting into three pairs. Their forms looked sharper, more agile.
Nearby, Dugu Bo and the other two radiated unstable auras—they too had broken through.
Yang Yunhai wasted no time. He gathered the remaining life energy into himself, reinforcing his martial soul while his strength rose. His voice echoed:
"The three of you discuss it. Two must offer sacrifice to this lady. Best if it's a left leg bone and a left arm bone."
As power-type beasts, the Thousand Ton Ants' limbs were incredibly strong. Such bones would be perfect for Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong.
The ants chittered to each other.
Moments later, the two smaller ones stepped forward. Meeting each other's gaze, they unleashed their sacrifice.
Dark-gold light flared, scarlet flames engulfing their bodies, their power pouring into the air before condensing toward Bibi Dong.
"Damn humans again!" On the far side of the Lake of Life, the Titan Giant Ape roared as he sensed the aura of sacrifice. His eyes blazed, but he dared not move. Better to stay hidden in his cave.
'Still… why is the life force in the core region growing denser?' he wondered, unsettled yet intrigued.
Meanwhile, in the God Realm's council hall—
"I protest!" The Rakshasa God seethed. "The Asura God has broken the rules and stolen my successor!"
"Asura, explain yourself," the God of Destruction demanded, frowning.
The Asura God's expression was calm. "Tell me, did Bibi Dong not enter my inheritance ground, pass the first trial, and receive the Death God Domain? Does that not make her my candidate?"
"So what if she did?" the Rakshasa snapped. "She also passed my trials—she was already on the seventh! You're the one jumping in to steal!"
"You call it stealing? I call it your failure." The Asura God sneered and waved. A red frame of light formed above, displaying scenes of Yang Yunhai's group with Bibi Dong in the forest, the sacrifices of the Thousand Ton Ants, and the cleansing of the Rakshasa's will.
The Sea God coughed lightly. 'No bestowed rings, blocking her cultivation, nearly driving her insane… Yeah, that's on you.'
And to himself, he thought bitterly, 'No wonder Yang Yunhai's companions all have 100,000-year rings. Turns out the kid can manufacture them. Why didn't I think of using the Child of Nature's gift like that?'
The Asura God's tone was like a blade. "You drowned her in malice, amused yourself at her suffering, and stalled her inheritance for nearly twenty years. She chose to reject you. How is that my fault?"
The Sea God stepped in, voice sharp. "Exactly. You toyed with her until her spirit almost shattered. From the eyes of her son-in-law, it looked like he was curing her. Can you really blame him?"
"Sea God, shut up!" the Rakshasa God snapped.
"Oh, can't even hear the truth now? If you want a fight, I'll oblige!" The Sea God's tone turned brash.
"Enough." The God of Destruction's aura burst outward. "This ends here. You are all gods managing the lower realms. You must act with dignity. Stop toying with mortals as you please."
With that, he vanished.
The Asura God shot the Rakshasa God a cold glance and also disappeared.
"Rakshasa, you lost this one." The Sea God laughed. "Better think carefully about your next move, or you'll get pummeled when the new ones ascend." With a smug gait, he strode away.
The hall emptied, leaving only the Rakshasa God standing in seething silence, fists clenched tight.
