Chapter 359 - Douluo: Emerald Poison Emperor [359]
At this moment in the divine realm, the five God Kings were watching as two deities descended to the mortal world to check on the Soul Beast clan and see if there had been any changes. These two deities were the God of Killing and the God of Pride. At this moment, both of their divine powers were sealed, and their abilities were restricted, but they were fully prepared to enter the mortal realm at any time.
After briefly summarizing the rules of the divine realm, the God of Destruction, who currently controlled the core of the divine realm, opened a passage to the mortal world. The two deities exchanged glances filled with mutual disdain before stepping into the passage, one after the other.
Watching the God of Killing disappear, the God of Asura felt a slight relief.
It's worth noting that he had placed his ultimate artifact, the Asura Demon Sword, on the pawn in the mortal realm. Even though the God of Killing's divine power was sealed, as long as he made contact with the artifact, he could break the seal and unleash power equivalent to a first-level god.
Although he could only strike once, doing so would result in even harsher punishment for the God of Killing for violating the rules of the divine realm. However, a single full-force attack from a first-level god would be sufficient to decide the course of his plans.
The God of Asura glanced at the God of Destruction, and upon noticing nothing unusual about him, he silently sighed in relief. What he didn't know was that the God of Destruction was secretly mocking him.
The seal placed on the God of Pride was flimsy and could be torn apart at any moment. Moreover, the God of Pride carried his artifact with him. If the God of Asura were to cause trouble, a fully armed first-level god could provide a tremendous surprise.
The God of Pride wasn't alone in this venture; he also brought along several treasures.
Thinking about the human he had his eye on in the mortal realm, the God of Destruction had contacted the God of Forge the day before. The God of Forge, who had been busy forging since ascending to the divine realm, was quite willing to find a scapegoat or successor. He took out the prepared items for the God of Destruction to send down.
Thus, the God of Pride not only carried his artifact but also several artifacts from the God of Forge. The God of Destruction was also aware that the Goddess of Life had placed several fruits from ancient life trees in the God of Pride's pack to allow him to reasonably bring these down to the Douluo World and deliver them to Chen Ming.
The fruits of the ancient life trees were precious items. Although they didn't originate from the Goddess of Life's main body, they were the essence born from the ultimate artifact. Even a regular first-level god consuming one could enhance their essence, while second and third-level gods would see significant improvements.
However, due to their scarcity, even the five great gods rarely consumed such items, mostly using them for rewards or sharing during grand feasts.
The energy contained in these few ancient life tree fruits was already sufficient to create a second-level god. Logically speaking, they should never be casually brought to the mortal realm for mortals to consume.
In summary, both the Goddess of Life and the God of Destruction were being extremely cautious.
While a significant part of their concern stemmed from their belief in Chen Ming's potential, it was unclear how much of it was because Chen Ming was a vessel for some of the power of the God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life.
The passage between the divine realm and the Douluo World was special. Given the situation of the two deities, although they entered one after the other, they were traveling through two separate paths simultaneously towards the Douluo World. This process would take about three hours in the divine realm, equivalent to three months in the Douluo World.
The Douluo Divine Realm occupied a unique position, partly above Douluo Star but not entirely. This was a leftover issue from history, and the current gods could only patch the system, as it couldn't be fully improved. Sometimes, it was even more convenient to fly directly down.
However, this was the system, and there was no way around it. Right now, the five great gods were struggling to maintain the operation of the divine realm, with no ability to fix bugs.
In any case, if things got desperate, they could forcefully descend, and the issues weren't too serious. Therefore, this historical leftover issue had never been addressed.
Within the passage between the divine realm and the Douluo World, the God of Killing sighed in relief, pondering the plans his master, the God of Asura, had shared with him, feeling quite anxious. He feared that if things were exposed, both he and his master would face severe punishment from the other four great gods. Meanwhile, the God of Pride, who had initially appeared angry, patted his chest where a spatial artifact was stored, containing many prohibited items that shouldn't have been taken to the mortal realm.
The Goddess of Life had stuffed in some fruits, the God of Destruction had added some destructive power, the God of Forge had contributed several artifacts, and the other six sins gods had each given him some defensive items. Due to their brotherly relationships, each sin god provided him with top-notch items.
With everyone contributing some contraband, the most reasonable item on the God of Pride was ironically the main artifact that he secretly took down.
In summary, the items he brought down were quite taboo. Had the God of Asura discovered them earlier, the God of Pride feared being imprisoned in the divine realm's jail. Essentially, he was now a massive arsenal; even if he confronted a divine king, he believed he could hold his own for a while.
Don't ask; just know it's a fantastic collection of items.
In the divine realm, the God of Destruction and the God of Asura exchanged a bland glance, then greeted each other before parting ways. The God of Destruction returned to the divine hall to handle divine affairs, while the God of Asura went back to his hall to daydream.
However, in their respective halls, both were secretly mocking each other's foolishness.
In the vast divine realm, it seemed that nearly all the divine kings were exploiting the loopholes in the divine system. If this were to be revealed, one could only imagine what the other deities in the divine realm would think.
Meanwhile, during this time in the divine realm, Shrek's group had been traveling in a carriage for nearly a month and finally arrived at Heaven Dou City.
The area outside the Sunset Forest was now surrounded by troops from the Heaven Dou Empire, with a large number of soul masters exploring the area. Over the past month, numerous soul masters had made tireless efforts, and indeed, some remarkable discoveries had been made in the Sunset Forest.
The latest news reported that the master of the Black Tiger Sect had taken down a 70,000-year-old Diamond Tiger and acquired a soul bone, thus becoming a new titled Douluo on the continent, with the title of Black Tiger.
In addition, some high-level soul masters had discovered traces of 100,000-year-old soul beasts active inside the Sunset Forest. The closest sects to Heaven Dou City and the Sunset Forest, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Elephant Armor Sect, had already begun a full-scale hunt for these 100,000-year-old soul beasts.
If any of these 100,000-year-old soul beasts were killed, their soul bones would allow a soul douluo to become a titled douluo in a short period, further changing the power dynamics of the world.
Although since the exposure of the super douluo with double martial souls and titled douluo, the value of titled douluo seemed diminished, they remained among the top-tier powerful soul masters.
Due to the immense attention the Sunset Forest had garnered, the Heaven Dou Empire now imposed strict regulations on entering the forest. Not only did they deploy their own troops and soul masters affiliated with the Heaven Dou Empire, but they also received covert support from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan.
Now, to enter the Sunset Forest, one had to pay a security deposit and obtain a pass through connection. The Sunset Forest had essentially become a large soul-hunting ground.
