The Purgatory Calamity

Chapter 808: Chapter 768 Decision Maker

As Su Wenrou recalled, Pang Lin was still that naive and carefree girl, innocent and unacquainted with worldly affairs.

Even after so much had happened, Pang Lin had come from the Pure Land to Panshi Fragment Land, and under that miraculous "Nine Heavens Thunder God Tree," her cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds; yet Su Wenrou still did not think Pang Lin would become a deity in such a short time.

At this moment, when Dong Tianze mentioned Pang Lin’s name, Su Wenrou suddenly awakened to the realization.

It turned out that the little girl she had once vehemently defended, under a combination of special circumstances, now possessed the qualifications to ascend to true godhood.

Thinking that Pang Lin was someone she had cultivated, always considering herself a part of the Pure Land, Su Wenrou beamed with joy.

"It’s actually Pang Lin," she said.

"No wonder," the others voiced, their expressions revealing a sudden understanding.

They thought, "No wonder Pang Jian would go to the extent of turning against Li Wang and Zhu Ji, just to protect Dong Tianze! If that young man dared to assassinate Jiang Fan at the risk of offending the entire world, and it was all for Pang Lin, how could her brother, Pang Jian, turn a blind eye?"

"Can Pang Lin really succeed in her Divine Enthronement?" Li Wang asked again.

He didn’t know much about Pang Jian’s sister, as Su Wenrou had previously concealed her on purpose to prevent her from being targeted too soon by Long Xiao.

Seeing how exceptional Li Yuqing had become, if Pang Lin were the same, then...

Suddenly, Li Wang felt that exchanging Jiang Fan’s death for the emergence of a more talented True God might indeed be worth it.

"My sister will not only successfully become a deity, but her future achievements will inevitably surpass that of the Old Thunder Dragon," Pang Jian said with a radiant smile, shaking the Thunder Pond out of his sleeve.

The Thunder Pond rapidly expanded.

Within the pond, the traces of lightning bolts and the magnificent divine palaces exuded an aura that threatened to annihilate all beings, which moved everyone who saw it.

"Crackle!"

Beyond the vault of heaven, in the depths of the dark Star River, many flashes of lightning were drawn to the Thunder Pond, converging towards it frantically.

"With that Nine Heavens Thunder God Tree from Panshi Fragment Land, coupled with this Thunder Pond, my sister will possess the power to surpass the Old Dragon the very moment she ascends to true godhood!"

"She will be one of the strongest Thunder Gods between heaven and earth. Not just in Purgatory but even on the outside," he declared.

"Jiang Fan, how can he even compare?"

Pang Jian hovered above the Thunder Pond, looking at the thick, waterfall-like bolts of lightning that shot into the pond through the "Heaven Forbidden" and said, "Everyone, do you think Jiang Fan’s death was justified?"

There was silence among the crowd.

Li Wang, Dong Shangqing, and the others, despite sensing something inappropriate couldn’t find the words to argue.

"In the future, if there are more upcoming talents like Miss Li or Pang Lin who are in desperate need of the fortune to become deities, we can discuss and vote to decide," he suggested.

In the end, Li Wang conceded with reluctance, "Just like Yin Ji breaking through the ’Heaven Forbidden’ to go to the Outer Star River, we should make room for the ones who follow."

Zhu Ji, Pei Yishan, and Su Wenrou nodded in succession.

"Mmm!"

Only then was the Ghost Mother finally able to make a sound.

Her expression filled with a mournful fear, she glanced at Pang Jian, then quickly lowered her head.

Now that she could speak and express her opinion, she fell silent instead.

Zhu Ji had lost, and she had tasted the horror of being unable to utter a word, her soul’s Divine Abilities and Techniques completely suppressed.

How dare she continue to provoke Pang Jian?

In the face of absolute power, the Ghost Mother had learned to be prudent.

Li Wang changed the subject, frowning as he said, "Let’s not dwell on Jiang Fan’s case for now. Dong Tianze, the person who gave you the Blood Bank, who do you think it was?"

Dong Tianze recalled seriously and said, "I suspect..." He looked towards Pang Jian.

Pang Jian nodded slightly, "You may speak openly."

"That saintess from the Blood Spirit Sect, Luo Hongyan as she is now," Dong Tianze took a deep breath, as the thick blood color swirling around him entirely seeped through his pores and into his body.

"The Blood God Skill that I practice comes from the Blood Spirit Sect, and I have also smelled the same scent on Luo Hongyan."

"And He just happens to have the ability to kill Liu Fu."

Dong Tianze said.

"He kills Liu Fu, seizes the Blood Treasury, but why give it to Dong Xiaozi?" Pu Zhaotian was completely mystified, rubbing his temples, "Dong Xiaozi is one of the Heavenly Phoenix Guards, with Heavenly Phoenix Essence Blood in his body. Logically, it should be the Black Phoenix who should exert effort, to eventually use this to control Dong Xiaozi."

Pei Yishan and Dong Shangqing were also utterly puzzled.

They hadn’t descended to the Fifth Realm, but after Li Wang’s return, he had told them what had happened in the world below.

All True Gods were entitled to know the truth, that two Sovereigns were waging war over Purgatory.

"What do you think?" Li Wang looked towards Pang Jian.

Pang Jian shook his head, "I can’t figure it out either."

"Remember to be careful," Li Wang turned his head and glared at Dong Tianze, cautioning him, "The one who gave you the Blood Treasury is definitely up to no good. The Blood God Skill you’re cultivating, and the Bloodthirsty Blade in your hand, they’re all huge hidden dangers!"

Dong Tianze uttered a sound of acknowledgment.

"Next topic," Li Wang lowered his head, his gaze wandering through the Third and Fourth Realms, "Fire God Yan Lie, Shajia of the Heaven Clan, and other strongest from the Alien Tribes are currently in the Sixth Realm, or perhaps the Seventh Realm."

"The Alien Tribe warriors who have left the seven continents are now scattered, without a leader who can command them all."

"If we go down, we can swiftly kill all Alien Tribe powerhouses with ninth-grade Bloodline Strength, and wipe out all Aliens who dare to leave the Fifth Realm."

"What are your thoughts on this?"

Li Wang sought everyone’s opinions.

"Killing them is pointless; they are not the key factors that can decide the course of the great trends."

As everyone was pondering, Pang Jian had already made his stance clear early on: "Many rules of Purgatory are changing, now the external Alien Tribes can enter, and soon even the God Spirits will be able to arrive in their true forms."

"Killing those ninth-grade Alien Tribe members and those with even lower Bloodline Strength, what can it possibly change?"

"The real factors that can determine the future of the Human Race are the Black Phoenix in the Seventh Realm, and Luo Hongyan, this Sovereign."

"These two supreme forces are what we need to focus on, not those weaker Alien Tribes," Pang Jian declared with conviction.

"Very well, we won’t act against the weaker Alien Tribes, moving onto the next topic," Li Wang nodded.

After Pang Jian made his position clear, he no longer sought the opinions of others.

Even though Ghost Mother hesitated, seemingly having something to say, he chose to ignore her.

...

Netherworld Prison.

In that mysterious and unfathomable blue Sea of Souls, Pang Jian’s golden Spiritual Soul began trying to gather strength.

"Destiny!"

He called out with his soul.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

The strange destinies that lay sunken at the bottom of the deep sea in Netherworld Prison, all of them began responding to his Primordial Spirit.

In the void, within Netherworld Prison’s "Heaven Forbidden," destinies were also moved by his Spiritual Soul.

"How can this be?"

Pang Jian was startled; when he was refining his Immortal Primordial Spirit in Purgatory, he could only influence a strand of destiny.

But in Netherworld Prison, so many destinies seemed to be able to merge into his Spiritual Soul, allowing him to surpass the ordinary True Gods from the very beginning.
