As Su Ming assumed his forging stance, Electrolux understood instantly.
At the same time, his actions also drew the attention of the gods in the God Realm.
The God of Destruction's heart pounded wildly. He felt a sense of unease.
"He's not going to forge that Half-Step Transcendent metal again, is he?"
The God of Destruction hesitated about whether to warn Su Ming again.
Last time he warned him, Su Ming forged seven whole pieces of Half-Step Transcendent metal despite the warning, only stopping afterwards.
If he warned him again and the other party ignored him again, wouldn't he look like a fool?
Would he then be forced to discipline Su Ming?
While the God of Destruction hesitated, Su Ming's forging had already begun.
A fluid, seamless forging process, pleasing to the eye.
Snapping out of it, the God of Destruction observed the scene, his heart sinking bit by bit.
Not Half-Step Transcendent.
"This bastard wants to try going further!"
"#!..."
Even the God of Destruction cursed and immediately chose to act.
This endangered already the safety of the God Realm. He couldn't just sit by.
At this point, he had to step in and stop it.
All in accordance with the rules of the God Realm, rules that must be followed.
No matter how much he favored Su Ming, he had to stop him now.
On the other side, Tang San did not act immediately. Instead, he gloated: "Destruction, oh Destruction. All for him, you attacked me multiple times. And this is how he repays you – an ungrateful wretch."
Enjoying the God Realm's refuge while undermining its foundation.
How ruthless.
Confirming the God of Destruction had acted, Tang San then used Deity Invocation.
First, he invoked Sea God divine power through Wang Dong'er. Then, he triggered the Rakshasa divine power within Huo Yuhao to carry his own Asura divine power, also invoking Asura God divine power.
Rong Nianbing rubbed his temples, quite vexed.
"What is Su Ming doing?"
He did not act.
The forging began very smoothly.
The sanctions from the God of Destruction and the Asura God were also very timely.
"Elder, don't act yet. I still need this Nirvana Divine Thunder."
As he spoke, Su Ming had already invoked the Nirvana Divine Thunder, channeling it into the metal before him.
"What?"
The God of Destruction was shocked. He hadn't expected Su Ming to be able to invoke his Nirvana Divine Thunder.
"When did you master my power of destruction?"
Through close-range perception, he detected the aura of his own divine seat's authority.
Su Ming had also mastered the power of destruction!
What he called 'destruction' here was actually Nirvana.
Su Ming also borrowed the Asura Sword Qi from the Asura God for a while.
For this Super Refinement, he had long factored in the God Realm's interception. The choice of metal was already referenced the abilities of the Gods of Destruction, Life, Asura, and Emotions.
Unexpectedly, only Destruction and Asura had acted.
Life and Emotions had not.
"I'll have to make up the difference myself."
The Tree of Life blazed with light. Vast life force channeled through Su Ming's forging hammer into the metal.
Elements gathered.
As Lord of the Plane, he mobilized many elements, integrating them into the metal.
The four powers barely achieved balance. The metal under Su Ming's hammer began to undergo a qualitative change.
Boom!
The Universe's Will descended.
The projection of the God of Destruction flickered.
He was a being born from the God Realm's origin and held an instinctive reverence for the Universe's Will.
The moment the Universe's Will descended, the Dragon God's consciousness in Dragon Valley also reawakened.
"The Universe's Will?"
His voice was filled with surprise.
"Actively drawing the Universe's Will? What is this guy doing?"
As he spoke, emotion entered the Dragon God's voice, and it was not good emotion.
His tone grew deeper, and gradually, anger could be heard.
"Playing with fire!"
"Fool!"
"Actively the Universe's Will – is he afraid he'll become a God King?"
The Dragon God was furious.
Not so much angry at Su Ming for ruining his own prospects, but because Su Ming's actions would affect his interests.
"I hope Destruction and the new Asura can stop this guy. Let's hope it doesn't affect the God Realm. Eh? It's not the new Asura."
His attention focused on Tang San's projection. The Dragon God's tone became strange, filled with surprise.
"Asura also broke through?"
"A proxy method – leaving behind a proxy that is also part of Asura. Clever."
The Dragon God observed briefly and roughly understood the Asura God's method of transcendence.
"No wonder he split the divine seat in two back then. It seems it wasn't just to split the divine seat, but to split himself, then reshape part of Rakshasa's soul to reincarnate as this Tang San."
"But once Tang San fuses the Rakshasa and Asura divine seats, he'll realize all this. The proxy method would be broken. How did Asura ensure that Tang San wouldn't fuse the two divine seats?"
Judging from the outcome, Tang San did not cultivate the Asura God divine seat. Instead, he focused on elevating the Sea God divine seat.
The Dragon God investigated Tang San's history, searching the mainland for records from the period when Tang San became a god.
But as he searched, he also fell silent. The entire Dragon Valley was filled with a depressing atmosphere.
"It's not just the proxy method – history tampering? There's actually a block in history!"
The Dragon God was shocked and uncertain.
Was the Asura God this smart?
He shouldn't be.
And, even if the Asura God had this idea, how did he accomplish it?
"The God of Time's divine seat is under my control. How could the Asura God change history?"
"He couldn't change history. Could it be like my initial breakthrough – creating false history on a large scale?"
Back then, the Dragon God did not control time.
When he tampered with history, he didn't change it. He created false history.
He transformed his own experiences, creating multiple different versions of history across several eras.
He had also reincarnated many times.
First Giant Dragon, genius of the Giant Dragon clan, born Dragon God – he had created all these titles.
Relying on fragments of false information, he had deceived the Universe's Will and broke through to Supreme God King.
As for the God of Time divine seat, he had obtained it after killing the first Phoenix God.
The first Phoenix God had risen to supremacy by tampering with past history. The Dragon God found a flaw and killed him, then referenced his path to complement his own path.
With his own history already existing in multiple versions, he then erased it from history on a large scale, further reducing the risk of being targeted.
Although not the foundation, this God of Time divine seat was extremely important to the Dragon God.
This was also why the Dragon God was angry when he saw Su Ming drawing the Universe's Will.
If the God Realm was endangered, the Dragon God's interests would also suffer.
"Could the Asura God have noticed something back then?"
Since he couldn't change history, and could only create false history like himself, where did the Asura God get that idea?
It was likely he had noticed from the Dragon God himself.
"Was my path to supremacy discovered by Asura?"
For a moment, panic flashed through the Dragon God.
For a Supreme God King, the method of attaining supremacy was crucial.
Once an enemy learned of it, they could target you.
Just as the Dragon God had slain the first Phoenix God.
Thinking this, the Dragon God's tone turned dark.
"I've been 'dead' for so many years. Has Asura only gone to breakthrough to supremacy? Could he be secretly investigating my history?"
