Chapter 363 God Shura
When Yang Podi returned to the Asura Temple, his expression became somewhat indifferent. He no longer showed the same desire for a divine position as before, and seemed rather detached.
Upon entering the Asura Temple, Yang Podi simply sat in the center of the hall, holding the Asura Demon Sword.
He stared intently at the enormous throne directly in front of him, seemingly struggling, yet also appearing to be indifferent to the divine position.
After sitting for ten days, a subtle change seemed to occur in the entire temple. A figure slowly appeared in the center of the huge throne. This figure was tens of feet tall, and its entire body was blood red, even its hair was blood red.
Yang Podi glanced at it and it was as if he saw the vast sky, or even more so as if he saw an endless abyss, as if he had been nothing more than an ant before.
In particular, the figure's face seemed somewhat illusory, making it impossible to see its true features. However, on that enormous face, Yang Podi seemed to see a hint of contempt, or perhaps something deeper.
The Asura God slowly spoke: "Successor, why have you come to my Asura God Temple? Do you have some grievance against me?"
Although the voice sounded calm, it was as loud as a bell, and even had a kind of awe-inspiring power over the soul.
Yang Podi quickly bowed and said, "Junior Yang Podi greets Lord Shura God. I do have a slight doubt in my heart, please forgive me, Lord Shura God."
"As my successor, what doubts do you still have? The Asura God is the God of Slaughter in the God Realm."
You must always remain absolutely calm and confident.
"Lord Asura God, I still have some questions about the sixth trial of the Asura God. I have already severely injured Di Tian and even hunted down many 100,000-year-old soul beasts. My attitude towards the soul beast race is very clear: those who are not of our race will surely have different hearts. The mere soul beast race is only fit to be an appendage of our human race."
The Asura God's voice seemed to hold a hint of emotion: "As the inheritor of the Asura God, is this all the shallow understanding you have? Have you never considered the possibility of humans and soul beasts coexisting?"
Yang Podi shook his head: "I've also thought about this, but as a human, my position is first and foremost to consider the interests of humanity. We humans don't necessarily need to exterminate the Soul Beast race, but we must subdue them. Only by making the Soul Beast race submit and preventing them from easily launching beast tides again..."
Only in that way can we truly survive together.
The God of Asura remained completely emotionless: "Then tell me, aren't you afraid of the extinction of the Soul Beast race, aren't you afraid of the complete disappearance of you human Soul Masters?"
Yang Podi spoke with a determined expression: "I am not afraid of this. Neither I nor everyone else has underestimated the Soul Beast race. Perhaps even if our human race perishes, the Soul Beast race will not truly perish."
Hearing this, the God of Asura was somewhat puzzled: "Are you mistaken? The human race only needs a few decades to give birth to a new generation of Soul Masters, and humans need many Soul Rings during their cultivation process. On the other hand, the Soul Beast race takes thousands to tens of thousands of years to grow. During this period, countless Soul Masters will be born. Isn't this a disaster for the Soul Beast race?"
Yang Podi then offered his opinion: "Lord Asura God, the growth of the soul beast race is indeed relatively slow, but the number of human soul masters is very limited. All the soul masters in the entire Douluo Continent combined are only a mere 100,000, and these 100,000 people would need at most 500,000 soul rings."
"However, the Soul Beast race reproduces extremely quickly. Just like Blue Silver Grass and Soft Bone Rabbit, Blue Silver Grass can grow in any harsh environment and can even easily cause disasters in some places. Soft Bone Rabbit can have more than ten offspring in a single litter and reproduces extremely quickly, even easily forming beast tides. Therefore, the overall survival ability of the Soul Beast race is much stronger than that of the human race."
The God of Asura thought for a long time before speaking: "What you said does make some sense, but if we continue to hunt them indiscriminately, the soul beast race will completely decline, and even in the later stages, it will be difficult for you high-level soul masters to obtain soul rings that are more than ten thousand years old."
Yang Podi shook his head: "Lord Shura God, ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts don't necessarily need to grow for ten thousand years. Perhaps top-tier soul rings will become rarer, but ordinary ten-thousand-year-old soul rings can still be obtained, especially since there are countless sea soul beasts in the ocean. Moreover, with the development of soul tool technology, the demand for soul rings older than ten thousand years will decrease significantly in the future, and soul masters will enter a true technological era."
The Asura God's expression turned serious: "So what is your attitude towards the Soul Beast race? To kill or to coexist peacefully?"
Yang Podi pondered for a while before slowly speaking: "As the junior said, those who are not of our kind will surely have different intentions. I know that the soul beast race still has some plans, especially Di Tian and his group. I'm afraid their ambitions are not small."
"Therefore, my attitude towards the Soul Beast race is that we must absolutely obey them. At the very least, we cannot allow the Soul Beast race to become a threat to our human race, especially ambitious people like Di Tian. It is best to kill them directly, otherwise there will be endless troubles in the future."
"As for ordinary soul beasts, they can be allowed to grow freely. The battle between humans and soul masters only needs to conform to the rules of nature. Of course, humans also need to prohibit those who wantonly slaughter soul beasts, like many people in the Slaughter City, or like Dugu Bo who releases poison arrays to slaughter soul beasts."
The God of Asura nodded in agreement: "What you said is indeed correct. The strategy for the Soul Beast race is suitable for the development of the Soul Master world, and it can even be said to be suitable for the development of Douluo Star. Now, let me ask you another question."
What exactly is the Asura God?
Yang Podi's eyes seemed to be a little red at this moment, and the mountain also began to exude a kind of Asura God power, but compared to the Asura God, it was like a candle flame compared to the bright moon.
"In my humble opinion, the Asura God is a god of slaughter. As the saying goes, killing one person is a crime, but slaughtering ten thousand is a hero."
The Asura God was also a ruthless and powerful figure in a chaotic world.
The God of Asura rarely showed a hint of emotion: "A hero of chaotic times, that description is quite apt."
Unfortunately, what the divine realm needs now is not a ruthless leader, but a qualified enforcer of the law.
Yang Podi revealed a hint of resentment: "Lord Asura God, it is precisely because I know that the God Realm does not need ruthless heroes that I have not carried out large-scale killings so far. Otherwise, how would the Soul Beast Clan have time to have any conspiracies? Otherwise, this world would not have been unified by the Spirit Hall."
"All my plans have always been for self-preservation, for protecting my own family."
A flicker of emotion returned to the Asura God's face: "Are you still moved by the fact that someone stopped you from pursuing Di Tian last time?"
