The Asura God recognized Tang San not only because Tang San had obtained the Killing God Domain.
It was also because, when considering designating Jiang Chen as the new inheritor, the Asura God had thoroughly investigated everyone related to Jiang Chen.
The Asura God was also very clear about the grudges between Jiang Chen and the Shrek Seven Devils.
Upon hearing the Asura God say that someone wanted to kill Tang Chen, Jiang Chen had already unleashed his movement technique, even bringing out his Lightning Wings.
His speed had already reached its maximum, slightly faster than even Qiongqi's.
Jiang Chen's heart was filled with extreme shock. "Senior, you said Tang San and the others have all become Titled Douluo?"
"Yes, I only just discovered it as well. Because I was not the one on duty supervising the lower realm, I normally only paid a little attention to you and did not notice that Tang San and the seven of them had actually become Titled Douluo."
"How is that possible? At this rate, they must have risen by at least more than thirty ranks within this one year." Jiang Chen cried out in alarm.
"There is nothing impossible about it." The Asura God's voice already carried some anger. "Because they accepted divine inheritances. If my guess is correct, those fellows who granted the inheritances to Tang San and the others definitely gave them excessive rewards. Otherwise, Tang San and the others would never have been able to rise so much within a single year."
The shock in Jiang Chen's heart was difficult to settle.
For so many years, his cultivation had always far surpassed Tang San's.
Those few from Shrek had never even been worth his attention.
But now, these former defeated subordinates had one by one climbed above his head.
Not only had their cultivation surpassed his, they even intended to kill Tang Chen, the target of his assessment.
Jiang Chen suddenly felt a jolt in his heart.
He linked several unusual events together and discovered something wrong.
Back then the Heart of the Sea God had suddenly flown away, and now the seven from Shrek had experienced explosive growth in cultivation while also intending to kill Tang Chen in the City of Slaughter.
This could not help but make him suspect whether those gods who wanted to kill him were using Shrek's power to deal with him.
"Senior, do you think it is possible that the God of Destruction wants to use Tang San and the others to eliminate me, and that is why he rapidly raised their cultivation?" Jiang Chen asked through his divine sense.
The Asura God replied, "Correct, that is also what I think. Those Sea God fellows madly elevating the strength of Tang San and the others—their purpose is easy to guess.
"Moreover, raising the strength of the inheritors to such a large degree without being discovered is only possible if someone within the God Realm Committee secretly helped them.
"That person is definitely the God of Destruction."
Jiang Chen was shocked and continued to reason, "Their appearance in the City of Slaughter right now means they are already prepared to make a move against me and are specifically waiting for me there.
"If Tang Chen dies at their hands, then I will be unable to complete the second trial."
The Asura God sighed. "You had best hurry and arrive there as soon as possible and snatch Tang Chen back from the hands of the Shrek Seven Devils.
"However, those seven from Shrek are all Titled Douluo, and with the addition of the ninety-ninth ranked Tang Chen, I worry that you will find your strength insufficient for the task."
While flying at high speed, Jiang Chen stuffed a handful of soul power recovery pills into his mouth.
With the improvement in the alchemy techniques of the Martial Soul Empire's alchemists, these soul power recovery pills had a decent effect even on Titled Douluo.
Flying at such high speed consumed a great deal of Jiang Chen's energy; he needed to maintain his peak condition before encountering Shrek and Tang Chen.
Facing the Asura God's concern, Jiang Chen laughed. "Senior, rest assured. Even if I have to face the seven from Shrek and Tang Chen, I still have absolute confidence in victory. You know my combat strength. Moreover, I still have several puppets and the fierce beast Qiongqi, whose combat strength is nearly at the level of Peerless Douluo."
"What puppets are you talking about?" The Asura God's puzzled voice rang out.
"The puppets collected by my sixth spirit skill. You don't know?" Jiang Chen was somewhat puzzled as well.
Wasn't the Asura God constantly paying attention to him? How could he not even know that he possessed puppets?
The Asura God was silent for a few seconds before saying, "Perhaps it was that System Senior who blocked my senses again. Moreover, I have never paid attention to your sixth spirit skill. It is truly a bit strange."
He continued, "Since even I have been blocked, then the God of Destruction and the others should also be unaware of this method of yours. You can catch Tang San and the others completely off guard."
The Asura God truly lived up to his reputation for deep scheming; he immediately arranged the tactics for Jiang Chen.
Joy rose in Jiang Chen's heart. If that was truly the case, then he had great confidence in leaving the lives of Tang San and the others behind.
Striking when they least expected it and catching them unprepared, no matter how capable the few from Shrek were, they would still fall for it.
In the past, the Shrek Seven Devils had posed no threat to Jiang Chen whatsoever. But now, those fellows from the God Realm were actually secretly helping Shrek deal with him.
Jiang Chen decided that he must use lethal methods against Shrek.
"Senior, tell me what methods Tang San and the others have."
While observing the situation inside the City of Slaughter, the Asura God explained the strength of the Shrek Seven Devils to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen learned an important piece of information: Tang San had actually obtained the Sea God's Trident, that divine weapon.
His heart could not help but grow heavier by several degrees. It seemed this battle would not be easy to fight.
For the sake of the Asura God's second trial, he must defeat Tang Chen.
If Tang San and the others truly killed Tang Chen, then he would be unable to complete the second trial.
There was also another possibility, the same as in the original plot: Tang Chen's divine sense would be awakened by the Sea God's Light of the Sea God's Trident, and he would recognize Tang San.
If that truly happened, then Jiang Chen would have to face the joint forces of Tang Chen and Tang San and the others.
No matter which possibility it was, it was not good news for him.
The only thing he could do was arrive before Tang San killed Tang Chen, or before Tang Chen recovered his divine sense.
He suddenly thought of a problem and asked, "Senior, is it possible that my current movements are also under the surveillance of the God of Destruction and the others? Perhaps when I approach the City of Slaughter, they will notify Tang San."
The Asura God's voice already carried some anger. "Correct. Your every move right now is definitely being monitored by them. Later, after you arrive at the City of Slaughter, you must make good use of your trump cards and not let the God of Destruction and the others detect them in advance."
Jiang Chen was startled. He had previously even considered letting several puppets come out ahead of time to set an ambush and deliver a fatal blow to Tang San and the others.
Now it seemed he not only had to hide from Tang San and the others, but also guard against those fellows like the God of Destruction.
Jiang Chen rapidly pondered strategies to deal with the Shrek Seven Devils and Tang Chen.
An open and aboveboard duel was impossible. This was not a competition, but a life-and-death battle.
No matter how despicable or unscrupulous the means, the one who survived was the king.
This was no longer merely a life-and-death battle between Jiang Chen and Tang San and the others; it was also a contest between the two camps of the Asura God and the God of Destruction.
Since the Asura God could secretly remind Jiang Chen, then the God of Destruction and the others would certainly do the same.
Jiang Chen suddenly thought of a question and asked, "Senior, if Tang Chen is injured and I then defeat him, would that still count as completing the second trial?"
The Asura God was silent for a moment, then suddenly said angrily, "It counts. Even if it doesn't count, it will count. They dared to do the first, so I dare to do the fifteenth. Who's afraid of whom?
"Moreover, after this matter is over, I will definitely confront them openly. Those who dared to secretly violate the rules must receive severe sanctions!"
With the Asura God's guarantee, Jiang Chen felt at ease, because the City of Slaughter was already faintly visible in the distance. In just a short while, he would arrive.
