LIGHTNOVELWORLD Chapter 125: Chapter 125: Turmoil Among the Powers, Chaos in the Divine Realm
Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect
"This aura... it's incredibly powerful!"
Sword Douluo Chen Xin, a Titled Douluo at the pinnacle of level 96 and only a step away from breaking into the rank of 97, wore a rare expression of shock on his otherwise calm and composed face.
This aura, indescribable and intangible, defied all attempts to trace its origin.
Chen Xin's heart was gripped by an unprecedented vigilance and dread. Despite his strength, he couldn't perceive where the pressure was coming from, which made the feeling all the more unsettling.
It wasn't just Chen Xin.
Every Titled Douluo across the continent felt the same oppressive force in that moment.
Spirit Hall – The Supreme Pontiff's Hall
"What is Lu Yunzhou up to this time?"
Sitting with elegance on her throne, Bibi Dong had been reviewing state documents and decrees when the sudden disturbance drew her attention.
The first thought that came to her mind was that this event was undoubtedly linked to Lu Yunzhou.
In Bibi Dong's eyes, no one but Lu Yunzhou could trigger such an upheaval on the current Douluo Continent.
Just then, a gentle, spring-like voice broke the silence.
"Mother, it's time to eat."
Carrying a tray laden with dishes she had personally prepared, Qian Renxue entered the grand, gilded hall.
Hearing her voice, Bibi Dong turned her gaze toward the source of the sound. When her eyes landed on the so-called "delicacies" on the tray, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.
"This girl… is she trying to poison me and seize my position?"
Suppressing her unease, Bibi Dong swallowed hard, her thoughts betraying her calm facade. For a brief moment, she even offered silent condolences to Lu Yunzhou.
"Mother, I made this dessert myself. Please tell me how it tastes," Qian Renxue said with a bright smile.
"It's… quite good. Just… a little salty," Bibi Dong replied, her expression betraying nothing of her inner turmoil.
Sea God Island
"This power… it's overwhelming!"
The seven Sea God Sacred Pillar Guardians were jolted from their meditative states in front of their respective pillars. Their eyes snapped open as they collectively shifted into high alert, prepared to face any threat.
A single thought echoed in each of their minds:
"This power… it seems to surpass even the Great Priest!"
Sea Dragon Douluo, in particular, found this realization nearly impossible to believe.
The Great Priest, Bo Saixi, was a level 99 Pinnacle Douluo with the title Invincible Ocean. She had once stood undefeated against both Angel Douluo Qian Daoliu and Clear Sky Douluo Tang Chen, two of the most powerful Pinnacle Douluos of their time. Not only had she fought them to a standstill, but she ultimately defeated them both.
Yet now, Sea Dragon Douluo couldn't shake the feeling that this unknown force was even stronger than Bo Saixi.
Inside the Sea God Palace
"Has someone… ascended to godhood?"
Bo Saixi murmured to herself as she opened her long-closed eyes.
As a Half-God, Bo Saixi was intimately familiar with divine power. In the oppressive force sweeping across the land, she detected a presence distinct from Soul Power—something unmistakably divine.
"This must be divine power," she concluded.
What Bo Saixi didn't realize, however, was that Lu Yunzhou hadn't merely become a god. He had ascended to the rank of God King!
Ethereal Sanctuary – Giant Sword Mountain
"Congratulations to the Holy Lord for achieving enlightenment and nearing ascension!"
Recognizing the familiar essence within the oppressive aura, Qian Daoliu immediately understood:
Lu Yunzhou had taken another monumental step forward.
To highlight Lu Yunzhou's unparalleled strength and the boundless future of the Ethereal Sanctuary, Qian Daoliu promptly made the announcement across the sanctuary.
Moments later, every disciple, steward, instructor, elder, and high-ranking member of the Ethereal Sanctuary joined in unison to offer their congratulations:
"Congratulations to the Holy Lord for achieving enlightenment and nearing ascension!"
"Congratulations to the Holy Lord for achieving enlightenment and nearing ascension!"
...
"Congratulations to the Holy Lord for achieving enlightenment and nearing ascension!"
The shockwaves from Lu Yunzhou's advancement to the rank of God King rippled through the Dragon Valley. These fluctuations were so immense that even the Titled Douluo across the Douluo Continent could sense them.
If those on the mortal plane could perceive such power, how could the deities of the Douluo Divine Realm remain oblivious?
Douluo Divine Realm
Asura God's Palace
"This power... so domineering."
A man with blood-red hair cascading to his waist murmured to himself. In his deep, profound eyes, an unmistakable solemnity and reverence emerged.
As one of the strongest beings in the Douluo Divine Realm, for the Asura God to describe something as domineering was no trivial matter. The sheer might of this force could only be imagined.
God of Destruction's Palace
"Little Green, did you feel it? The sheer power and terror of this aura."
A figure cloaked in a flowing purple mantle, the God of Destruction, known as "Little Purple," spoke these words as divine power swirled and radiated from his form.
Hearing this, a graceful woman in an emerald-green court dress, the Goddess of Life, known as "Little Green," nodded slightly and responded,
"Judging by the aura, this person must be a God King-level powerhouse, like us. Yet, for some reason, I feel as though even if the five of us combined forces, we would not be able to stand against him."
The moment her voice fell, the God of Destruction immediately interjected with conviction:
"It's not a feeling—it's a certainty."
Phoenix God's Palace
The Phoenix God, one of the few second-class "Beast Gods" in the realm, stirred with excitement.
Although the Phoenix God was currently a mere Second-Class God, in ancient times, she had been an equal to the Dragon God, a God King-level existence. However, the Dragon God's fall had caused her divine status to diminish, relegating her to her current rank.
At this moment, as she sensed the oppressive fluctuations from Lu Yunzhou's breakthrough, the Phoenix God couldn't help but feel a surge of exhilaration.
The reason was simple:
Within these shockwaves and their overwhelming pressure, there was the unmistakable power of both the Ice Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King. Moreover, there was also a trace of the aura belonging to the Mountain Dragon Clan.
This realization led the Phoenix God to believe that the Dragon Clan was on the verge of making another bold move.
