Poseidon, the high priest of Poseidon Island, who was praying devoutly inside the temple, suddenly collapsed onto the cold temple floor, his knees buckling.
Her exquisitely well-maintained eyes were filled with a despair born of a complete collapse of faith.
She could sense that the sea god she had worshipped her whole life didn't dare utter a single word in front of that voice that resounded throughout the entire continent.
The seven guardians of Poseidon Island were so frightened that they fled in terror, completely losing their former majesty.
Deep in the ice fields of the far north.
Xue Di's body, which was like an ice sculpture, suddenly froze on the spot.
The swirling snow was frozen in mid-air the instant the sound reached them.
Ice Emperor, crawling beside Snow Emperor, let out a sharp screech.
Ice Emperor lashed out at the ice with her scorpion tail: "They've gone mad! The humans outside have definitely gone mad! If they anger the God Realm, the entire Douluo Continent will be buried with them!"
The Snow Emperor raised her head, looking at the sky covered in golden light, and remained silent for a long time.
The entire order of the Douluo Continent was utterly shattered into dust the moment Qian Yu uttered those words.
Qianyu stood in the void above Jialing Pass, completely unconcerned about the devastating psychological impact his words would have on the entire continent.
He slightly raised his right hand, his slender fingers pointing to the sky where the golden list was displayed.
Qianyu continued to issue commands.
"Issue my decree: in three days, the Jixia Academy, the Great Wall Guards, and the entire Spirit Hall army shall assemble!"
His voice this time was no longer casual and flat, but carried the air of conquering the world with the force of war.
Following the light of the golden list, this decree transformed into a rolling celestial sound, reverberating throughout the entire Douluo Star.
Every word was like a heavy hammer, striking everyone's heart.
Jixia Academy.
The Great Wall Guards.
Spirit Hall.
These three forces were bound together by Qianyu in an extremely forceful manner.
Upon hearing these three names, the last vestiges of the Tiandou soldiers kneeling on the ruins of Jialing Pass were utterly extinguished.
The Spirit Hall alone had already brought the entire Heaven Dou Empire to ruin and destruction.
Now two more terrorist forces have emerged that I've never even heard of.
To be personally named by this lord, one must be an invincible being tens of millions of times more powerful than the Spirit Hall.
Several generals of the Heavenly Dou Empire, whose mental fortitude was extremely poor, fainted instantly upon hearing these words, their eyes rolling back in their heads, and they collapsed into the muddy water.
They would rather just pass out than face this utterly hopeless reality again.
Even the Spirit Hall's own army showed extreme shock when they heard the names Jixia Academy and the Great Wall Guard.
They had no idea that such a terrifying force was hiding on this continent.
In Qianyu's deep eyes, as vast as the cosmos, was reflected the void above the sky that had just been torn apart by the Asura God.
He withdrew his right hand and put it behind his back.
Qianyu's tone suddenly rose, her voice like a divine punishment thunder tearing through the night.
"Objective: To conquer the realm of the gods!"
The moment those four words were uttered, the entire space of the Douluo Continent underwent a violent distortion.
The dazzling golden list in the sky erupted with a dragon's roar that seemed to be tangible.
To conquer the realm of gods.
Mortals challenge Heaven.
What an incredibly arrogant, domineering, and overbearing spirit this is!
Throughout the ages, no living being has ever dared to utter the word "condemnation" to that high and mighty heaven.
Everyone's ultimate dream is simply to become a god, or to become an obedient dog in the realm of gods.
Qianyu, however, intends to lead the mortal army to break through the spatial barrier and drag all the high-ranking gods down from their thrones.
It was completely boiling over.
After a brief period of silence, the entire Douluo Continent was thrown into an unprecedented frenzy.
On the Spirit Hall's side, the millions of elite troops felt their blood boil upon hearing those four words.
Every Spirit Hall soldier's cheeks were flushed red, a physiological reaction of extreme excitement and fervor.
They thought that defeating the Heaven Dou Empire and killing the Shrek Seven Devils would be the most glorious peak they could reach in their lives.
Who could have imagined that the supreme being who topped the list would lead them to accomplish a monumental feat they wouldn't even dare to dream of?
Let's march up to the realm of the gods.
Go and trample those so-called supreme gods under your feet.
Just thinking about it was enough to make these warriors, who had lived on the edge of death, tremble with excitement.
The seven elders of the Spirit Hall, kneeling at the forefront, were breathing heavily.
Even the peerless Douluo Qian Daoliu, whose strength was unparalleled, was now in tears, his cloudy eyes flashing with the fervent light of a fanatic.
Qian Daoliu's withered hands gripped the rocks on the ground tightly, the veins on the back of his hands bulging.
He had lived his whole life for the glory of the Angel God, but only today did he realize that true glory lay in following the man before him to tear a hole in the heavens of the divine realm.
Qian Daoliu turned to look at the Golden Crocodile Douluo beside him, his voice hoarse and split due to extreme excitement.
Qian Daoliu shouted, trembling all over, "Second brother, did you hear that? The master is taking us to fight the God Realm! Even if we old bones die in the heavens, it will be worth it!"
Golden Crocodile Douluo's eyes were also bloodshot. He ripped off his tattered battle robe, revealing his bulging muscles.
Golden Crocodile Douluo slammed his fist into the ground: "Big brother, I heard everything. If we follow Lord Qianyu, even if the Asura God himself comes, I'll dare to bite off a piece of his flesh!"
The atmosphere within the Spirit Hall camp was instantly ignited.
All the titled Douluo and Soul Douluo level experts raised their heads and looked up at Qian Yu in the void with a fanatical gaze, as if looking at a creator.
Qian Renxue, dressed in a dazzling angelic divine robe, stood quietly in the void closest to Qian Yu.
There was no shock in her beautiful eyes, only unreserved admiration and affection for the man before her.
That was her father.
It was the only absolute faith that Qian Renxue had ever recognized in her life, the only one she was willing to give everything to follow.
Qian Renxue looked at Qian Yu's towering figure, which resembled a god, and her eyes reddened slightly.
She could feel the indomitable spirit in her father, who regarded all living beings as worthless yet dared to trample the heavens under his feet.
This is Qian Renxue's father, the invincible being who makes the entire continent kneel and submit.
Qian Renxue took a deep breath and circulated the purest angelic power within her body to its fullest extent.
Six enormous golden wings suddenly unfolded behind her, bursting forth with dazzling golden light.
Qian Renxue's stunningly beautiful face was filled with extreme fervor and pride.
She suddenly raised her right arm high, pointing the angelic sword in her hand straight at the sky.
"The Spirit Hall swears to follow you to the death, sir!"
Qian Renxue's voice was clear and bright, carrying a terrifying penetrating power that could pierce through clouds and split rocks, and it exploded in the sky above this boiling battlefield.
Her shout was like a spark thrown into a powder keg, instantly igniting the suppressed fervor in the hearts of the millions of soldiers of the Spirit Hall.
The seven elders of the Spirit Hall followed closely behind, simultaneously unleashing their vast soul power and letting out a roar that shook the heavens and earth.
"We swear to follow you to the death, sir!"
Qian Daoliu led the shout, his aura as a level 99 peerless Douluo, mixed with absolute loyalty, soared straight into the sky.
Following them were hundreds of titled Douluo and Soul Douluo level elders from the Spirit Hall.
These usually aloof and powerful figures now resembled a group of fanatical believers who had found divine guidance, roaring at the top of their lungs without any regard for their image.
Finally, there was the vast, seemingly endless army of over a million elite soldiers from the Spirit Hall.
"We swear to follow you to the death, sir!"
"Conquer the divine realm!"
"Conquer the divine realm!"
The roars from millions of mouths converged into a terrifying sonic wave capable of destroying everything.
The vast sea was shrouded in a strange golden glow.
The waves no longer roared, but instead seemed to be tamed by some supreme will, gently lapping against the coastline.
Tens of thousands of miles away from Douluo Continent lies the Sun and Moon Continent.
This continent, renowned for its soul-guided technology, is now plunged into a deathly silence.
Deep within the imperial palace of the Sun and Moon Empire, in the once brightly lit council hall symbolizing supreme power, the atmosphere was extremely oppressive.
The usually aloof and all-powerful ruler of the Sun and Moon Kingdom was now lying on the ground in a sorry state.
His crown, adorned with rare gems, had rolled to the side, and his once meticulously combed hair now appeared disheveled.
Just now.
The Heavenly Golden List trembled, and the sound that resounded throughout the entire planet ignored the distance in space and exploded directly in his mind.
To conquer the realm of gods.
Those four simple words, like a thunderbolt, shattered all his pride and confidence.
He looked through the open dome of the main hall at the image displayed on the golden list.
Even though they were thousands of miles apart, the overwhelming aura that suppressed heaven and earth still made his soul tremble.
That is a power that no ordinary person could possess.
That is the absolute ruler to whom even the gods must bow down and submit.
"His Majesty!"
Several level-nine Soul Masters clad in mechs rushed into the main hall, their faces pale and their eyes filled with terror.
The level-nine soul tool that was usually so proud of looked as ridiculous as a toy in a child's hands in the face of the oppressive aura emanating from the golden list in the sky.
The king struggled to his feet and slumped back down from the throne.
He was breathing heavily, his chest heaving violently.
"Resist? With what can we resist?"
The king's voice trembled, and his lips quivered.
He recalled the scene where the god named Tang San was pressed into the mud, and the scene where the bloody hand of the Asura God was easily crushed.
That's a god!
In the legends of their Sun and Moon Empire, it was the supreme being.
But in front of that being named Qianyu, she was as fragile as a sheet of paper.
An elderly Soul Master swallowed hard and asked tentatively.
"Your Majesty, should we activate the national protection formation, or assemble the Soul Guidance Legion...?"
"idiot!"
The king suddenly jumped up and slapped the soul master across the face.
The crisp sound of a slap echoed throughout the hall.
"Are you trying to kill us already?"
"He crushed even gods like ants, what can our soul-guided cannons do? Just tickle him?"
The king roared, his voice becoming sharp and distorted with fear.
He didn't want to die.
He hasn't had enough of the riches and glory of this world.
Since Qianyu wants to attack the God Realm, it means that his sights are set on the heavens, not on the ants on the ground.
If you lower your posture enough and kneel down quickly enough, you might still be able to survive.
even...
A glint of light flashed in the king's eyes, and fear was gradually replaced by an almost insane speculative mentality.
The realm of gods is about to change its master.
If one can latch onto the coattails of this new ruler at this critical juncture, even if it's just by being a dog, it would be a case of one person achieving enlightenment and all their relatives and friends benefiting from it.
Perhaps, we might even get a share of the soup flowing from the divine realm.
Upon realizing this, the fear on the king's face vanished instantly, replaced by a resolute fervor.
He waved his hand and roared at the kneeling officials in the palace.
"quick!"
"Open the national treasury! Bring out all the rare metals, ancient whale glue, and sunken silver collected by previous emperors!"
"And all my favorite top-grade soul tools, pack them all up!"
"By imperial decree, gather all level-nine Soul Masters in the country. Do not bring weapons, and all of you must change into formal attire!"
The ministers looked at each other, momentarily stunned.
"Your Majesty, this is going to..."
"We won't fight, we'll surrender!"
The king shouted at the top of his lungs, completely disregarding any so-called imperial dignity.
In his view, submitting to the strong is the wisdom of survival.
"Across the sea!"
"Set off immediately, destination: Douluo Continent!"
"We must be the first to kneel before that true god named Qianyu before the other forces can react!"
With the king's command, the entire Sun and Moon Empire began to operate like a precise machine.
Above the port, thousands of steel behemoths raised their sails, their soul-guided thrusters spewing out dazzling light.
There were no menacing cannons, only warehouses laden with gold, silver, jewels, and rare ores.
The mighty fleet broke through the waves and headed at full speed towards the Douluo Continent overnight.
At the bow of the ship, the ruler of the Sun and Moon Kingdom faced the sea breeze, his gaze fixed intently on the east.
Those who understand the times are wise.
Following Qianyu is definitely a good move.
...
Douluo Continent, Jialing Pass.
The smoke of battle has been cleared away, but an atmosphere of solemnity and awe still lingers in the air.
Behind the city gate, the luxurious palace that originally belonged to the Heavenly Dou royal family has now changed hands.
The innermost palace was unusually quiet at this moment.
The floor was covered with a thick carpet of soul beast fur, and the walls were inlaid with soft luminous pearls, which made the whole space feel ambiguous and luxurious.
Qianyu sat casually on the large, soft chair, toying with a delicate jade cup in her hand.
He appeared languid, showing no sign of the tension that had just been felt after declaring war on the divine realm.
To him, the so-called conquest of the divine realm was nothing more than a hunting game about to begin.
Just then.
A ripple suddenly appeared in the center of the palace.
Golden specks of light appeared out of thin air and quickly converged into a dazzling gate of light.
