Chapter 290 The Pen of All Beings
Just as the four great gods were preparing to discuss how to suppress the Silver Dragon King,
But the God of Life spoke again.
One sentence was enough to freeze everyone in place.
"Don't rush to deal with the Silver Dragon King."
"Compared to the changes that have occurred in Douluo Continent, the Silver Dragon King... is no longer the biggest threat."
"Huh? Life, what did you say?"
The God of Slaughter's face was filled with disbelief.
"Besides the Silver Dragon King, what else can threaten the God Realm?"
"Now that the Golden Dragon King is imprisoned in the God Realm, only the Silver Dragon King poses a threat to the safety of the God Realm?"
The God King of Life raised his eyes, his gaze sweeping over the four God Kings, and slowly uttered a sentence.
"A person has appeared in Douluo Continent."
"Beidou Academy, Dean—Lu Xiao."
"This person ranks first on the Fortune Ranking, with the title: The Only Supreme Fortune in Heaven and Earth."
"Luck value: 999999+, infinitely overflowing, immeasurable."
"The combined luck value of all the powerful figures in the entire Douluo Continent is not even a fraction of his."
The four divine kings looked at each other, their eyes filled with confusion and bewilderment.
They had never heard of or understood anything called "luck value".
The God-King of Life continued, "The Heavenly Canopy bestowed upon him a supreme artifact, called the Brush of All Beings."
"This pen can strip anyone of their luck, can bestow luck upon anyone, can stabilize luck, and can alter luck."
"In a single thought, one can determine the life and death of living beings, the success or failure of the divine path, and the rise and fall of planes."
"Even the five of us God Kings can have their fortune easily stripped away in front of him."
boom!
A single sentence, like a world-destroying thunderbolt, exploded in the heart of the divine realm!
Among the five great god-kings, the one with the most unshakable mental state completely collapsed at this moment.
"absurd!"
The God of Destruction roared.
"The destiny of all beings is predetermined by Heaven and Earth, and even a god-king cannot control it. How could a divine artifact possibly alter the destiny of all living beings? This is a complete violation of the laws!"
"I also believe it violates the rules."
The God-King of Life calmly said, "But this is what I saw with my own eyes; divine sense does not lie."
She paused, then dropped another bombshell:
"There's one more thing."
"Based on my investigation in Douluo Continent, the discussions among Soul Masters on the continent, and my experience of having my divine sense suppressed... I am 90% certain that Lu Xiao himself possesses the combat power of a God King."
"Moreover, it is highly likely... that they are no less capable than you or me."
Dead silence.
The entire central hub of the divine realm fell into a deathly silence.
The small Douluo Continent is just one of the lower realms.
They appeared at the same time.
The Silver Dragon King, who restored the God-King's battle prowess.
Lu Xiao, who possesses supreme fortune, controls the pen of all living beings, and has unfathomable combat power.
A mysterious celestial canopy that can even isolate the divine thoughts of the gods and determine the fate of the continent.
There is also the Beidou Academy, which has produced many powerful individuals and several god-level experts.
...
All of this was absurd to the extreme, yet it actually happened.
The Kind God-King spoke softly, his tone tinged with helplessness: "With the plane's capacity to support existence, it's simply impossible for a God-King level being to be born... This has already exceeded the limits of the plane's rules."
"But that's just how it is."
The God of Life nodded.
"My divine sense was suppressed by an invisible force when it approached Beidou Academy, and it was unable to detect Lu Xiao's true strength at all."
"But I can sense that person... is unfathomable."
"My successor comes from the Beidou Academy!"
After a long silence, the God King of Slaughter spoke in a low voice: "For a lower realm to develop such a terrifying power, is this an opportunity or a disaster for the God Realm?"
The God of Destruction said coldly, "Whatever it is, we cannot allow it to continue to develop."
"His power to manipulate destiny is terrifying. If he were to set his sights on the God Realm, the consequences would be unimaginable."
The Evil God King spoke calmly: "There's no need to rush. We don't even know the origin of the Sky Curtain, Lu Xiao's true purpose, or the limits of the Pen of All Beings."
"A rash move will only lead to trouble. We can handle the Silver Dragon King, but Lu Xiao... we are not confident of victory."
The five divine kings exchanged glances, and each saw solemnity in the other's eyes.
They would never have dreamed of this!
One day, I actually developed such deep fear of a being from a lower realm continent.
...
Beidou Academy.
The golden light above the sky still shone brightly, and all the Soul Masters were still immersed in the shock of Lu Xiao ascending to the pinnacle of destiny.
"call out!"
At this moment, a golden stream of light, purely condensed from the power of destiny, appeared.
It slowly descended from the sky and came straight to Lu Xiao.
As the light faded, a divine brush, entirely gilded and engraved with runes of heaven and earth, floated silently in mid-air.
On the pen, countless phantom images of living beings float and sink!
The energy of heaven and earth surrounds us; it is formless and intangible, yet it truly exists.
It is the supreme reward for first place on the Fortune Ranking—the Pen of All Beings.
Lu Xiao raised his hand and gently grasped the magic pen.
"Buzz!"
An indescribable connection instantly linked him with the destiny of the entire Douluo Continent, and even a wider dimension.
Countless invisible and intangible threads of destiny in the world converged madly toward the pen of all living beings.
The vast fortune within him resonated perfectly with the divine brush.
In an instant, Lu Xiao seemed to open his "Eye of Destiny".
He could clearly see the aura of destiny emanating from everyone behind him:
Lu Bu exudes an aura of slaughter and demonic power.
Li Bai's body exuded a refined and otherworldly aura of cyan swordsmanship.
The chaotic energy within Sun Wukong was as heavy as a prison.
...
Ning Rongrong, Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, and others also possess their own unique aura of destiny.
"Is this... the power of the Pen of All Beings?"
Lu Xiao murmured to himself, filled with amazement.
This artifact is not an ordinary offensive or defensive artifact.
Rather, it is the ultimate treasure that directly governs the rules of heaven and earth.
"Dean, is this the Pen of All Beings?"
Dugu Yan curiously leaned closer, her eyes full of anticipation. "Is it really as magical as Tianmu said, capable of manipulating destiny?"
Ye Lingling, Ning Rongrong, and others also gathered around, their eyes filled with curiosity.
Li Bai, Lü Bu, Sun Wukong, and others also restrained their auras and watched quietly.
Lu Xiao smiled slightly and twirled the Brush of All Beings in his hand: "Since that's the case, I'll test its power."
His gaze swept casually across the room, finally settling on Ye Lingling.
Just now, in the instant I grasped the pen that governs all beings!
He clearly sensed that there was an extremely subtle, almost imperceptible fluctuation in the aura of fortune surrounding Ye Lingling.
It's a kind of fluctuation that's just around the corner, about to have an epiphany, but always missing that one crucial opportunity.
With a thought, Lu Xiao took up the Pen of All Beings.
He waved gently at Ye Lingling.
There were no earth-shattering phenomena, no dazzling lights.
"Buzz!"
Only a wisp of invisible and intangible light of fortune quietly merged into Ye Lingling's body.
The next moment, an unbelievable scene unfolded!
