Douluo Dalu: Seven Kills

Chapter 675 The proposal was passed, but the final concerns remain (two parts combined)

"I wonder what Tang San was thinking back then?"

Inside the Divine Realm Council Hall, Chen Junting, as one of the five Divine Kings, naturally needed to fulfill his duties. He first used his Orderly Heavenly Eye to survey the various planes under the jurisdiction of the Divine Realm, and then familiarized himself with each rule.

When he learned that as long as a god of the first level or above submits a request to the Divine Realm Committee and it is accepted, theoretically, he can bring anyone into the Divine Realm without any limit on the number of people. Even a god of the second level can bring a relative or friend after submitting an application.

Although it was only in theory, it wouldn't have been difficult for Tang San to bring an extra Bai Chenxiang if he had wanted to.

However, all of that is in the past. What Chen Junting really cares about is himself and the phrase "unlimited quantity".

Is it possible to bring up the villagers and their relatives and friends from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School together?
"...But isn't doing this a bit shameless?"

With this thought in mind, Chen Junting fell silent for a moment.

Regardless, such a number is not insignificant. Moreover, the realm of gods is now almost "full".

"It seems that expanding the realm of gods is imperative."

The suggestion from the God of Destruction echoed in his mind.

Regarding the "expansion of the divine realm," Chen Junting's attitude was originally inclined to support that side. Just as the God of Destruction said, there are so many geniuses in the planes governed by the divine realm. It would be a real pity if these people who originally had the potential to become gods eventually died of old age because the divine realm could not accommodate them.

Now, the interests of expanding the divine realm align with his own. Therefore, he should be even more inclined to agree.

"Then let's settle on this."

Having made up his mind, Chen Junting wouldn't delay.

A divine sense was sent out, heading towards the direction of the destroyed castle.

Having done all this, Chen Junting flipped his palm over.

The divine positions of five second-level gods, including the God of War and the God of Speed, along with their respective divine artifacts, and the divine position of a first-level god, the God of Destruction, were all quietly floating in his palm. Only the God of Destruction's Hateful Earth Ring Set was put away by him.

After a moment's thought, he lightly traced a line on the round table in the hall with his right hand. The next second, the round table was shrouded in mist. After a series of changes, the scene of the Douluo Continent appeared before his eyes.

This time, Chen Junting didn't hesitate and gently tossed it with his right hand.

Suddenly, the scene that had occurred before the "meeting" even began happened again: five divine positions streaked across the sky like shooting stars.

As a being from the Douluo Continent, Chen Junting naturally had his own selfish motives, so he certainly hoped that these six godhoods would be inherited by people from the Douluo Continent. Moreover, this era is a golden age; with plane advancements, the path to godhood taking shape, and a surge of talent, everyone desperately needs an opportunity to become a god!

The growth of the divine realm requires talented individuals!
After all the affairs were settled, a day had passed in the divine realm, while a year had passed in the mortal realm. Chen Junting took some time to contact Ning Tian. After a long exchange of heartfelt words, he told Ning Tian that all the troubles in the divine realm had subsided, and if she wanted to ascend to the divine realm, she could do so at any time.

Although Ning Tian was excited, he still refused.

In her words, once the affairs of the human world are settled and everything is back on track, she will ascend to the divine realm with the others.

In any case, the lifespan of gods is almost infinite.
They still have a long time ahead of them.

In addition, Chen Junting inquired about everything that was happening in the mortal realm, and how his master and teachers were doing. He eventually learned from Ning Tian that the path to godhood was incredibly popular, with all the geniuses of the entire Douluo Continent gathering together. For a time, heroes from all over the world were as numerous as carp crossing a river, a veritable battle of a hundred boats.

All for the sake of obtaining the opportunity to become a god.

Especially after the six god positions were established, the level of motivation increased several times over, and the potential they unleashed made even several Limit Douluo feel inferior to them at the same age.

"That's good, that's good..."

As he spoke, Chen Junting's gaze softened, carrying a hint of apology. "I'm sorry, Xiaotian, I was in such a rush before, and I still owe you a huge wedding."

Ning Tian smiled gently, showing his understanding while maintaining a refined demeanor. "I don't blame you. And I know you'll definitely find a way to make it up to me."

Chen Junting smiled and said, "Once all our relatives and friends have arrived in the God Realm, we will hold a grand wedding."

"Friends and relatives?"

I don’t know if I should say that Ning Tian’s attention was misplaced. What should have been most attractive to her was the “grand wedding”, but Ning Tian was actually focused on the “family and friends”.

At this moment, Ning Tian clearly realized something. Her face lit up with surprise, "Is this 'relatives and friends' what I meant?"

"Can everyone ascend to the realm of gods?"

The concept of lifespan is unpleasant for anyone. Therefore, in most cases, God would shield this concept.

Ning Tian was no exception.

But now, that unpleasant feeling seems to have disappeared!

"hold on."

Chen Junting reassured them, "Once we finish this last thing, I'll bring everyone up from the mortal realm."

"it is good!"

Ning Tian had no doubt whatsoever and believed it without hesitation!

Not long after, Chen Junting also lost contact with Ning Tian.

The moment the connection was severed, Chen Junting's expression turned serious. Since he wanted to expand the God Realm, he needed to eliminate all potential threats, such as spacetime turbulence, before taking any action.

He had to assess when the spacetime turbulence would arrive, and whether the weakened barrier of the divine realm, after its expansion, could recover and successfully withstand its impact.

Then, the third eye between his eyebrows opened the next second.

At the moment the rose gold shone, the power of destiny began to flow, and at the same time, the fluctuations of time enveloped him.

With the combined power of the two powerful laws at work, it wasn't long before Chen Junting deduced the result he wanted.

Meanwhile, the castle was destroyed.

In the dimly lit hall, a scarlet carpet stretched from the entrance to the innermost part. A flash of lightning streaked across the window, momentarily illuminating the hall.

At this moment, the God of Destruction sat in the main seat, while only seven chairs remained on either side below him. After all, the chair belonging to the God of Destruction had been removed by the God of Destruction, leaving only the Seven Deadly Sins.

Now they have gathered together to discuss not only what happened yesterday, but also the matter of expanding the divine realm.

"My lord, has the God of Order agreed?"

When the topic of "expanding the divine realm" came up, the God of Gluttony was the first to ask questions. He licked his lips with his long tongue, and a faint green light shone in his eyes, making him appear somewhat excited.

The God of Destruction glanced at the God of Gluttony and quoted Chen Junting's exact words to him: "He said he agrees in principle."

The atmosphere in the hall froze instantly upon hearing this.

Agree in principle?
Why does this sound so awkward?
After a moment of silence, seeing that no one else spoke and even turned their attention to him, the God of Greed cursed inwardly, "They never think of me for good things, but they always remember me when it comes to getting ahead!"

Even so, the God of Greed still spoke up to ask, "My lord, what exactly does this God of Order mean?"

The God of Destruction appeared outwardly calm and composed, but inwardly he was filled with apprehension. How could he possibly know what this meant?
If you can't explain it clearly, why not just be straightforward?

Just as the gazes of the seven original sin gods fell one after another on the god of destruction, and the god himself seemed to want to say something but hesitated, suddenly, a golden light appeared at the top of the hall. The moment this light appeared, the seven original sin gods were immediately invigorated, and the red light in the god of destruction's eyes also paused slightly.

"Destruction Senior".

The golden light gradually transformed into the illusory figure of Chen Junting, at which point a calm yet respectful voice rang out.

The God of Destruction responded calmly to this.

“We are of equal standing, God of Order, there’s no need for such formality.”

"I wonder what business the God of Order has with me this time?"

Chen Junting didn't bother with formalities and went straight to the point, "I've come here today to discuss the 'expansion of the God Realm.' The God Realm is indeed due for an expansion. However, this is a matter of great importance, and even if you and I agree, we still need to discuss it with the other three God Kings. Moreover, according to my calculations, a crisis will occur after the expansion of the God Realm is completed. In any case, we must plan ahead for this matter."

Upon hearing his words, the God of Destruction was taken aback.

After a brief silence, he said in a deep voice, "Okay."

"Then how about we set the meeting for today?"

"can."

The moment after the God of Destruction finished replying, the figure formed from Chen Junting's divine consciousness disintegrated, the golden light receded, and it vanished without a trace.

Only then did the God of Destruction speak again.

This time, however, his voice carried a hint of doubt.

"Could it be that what Tang San said back then was true?"

With one or two people saying the same thing, the God of Destruction couldn't help but believe it. Could a great calamity really be about to occur in the realm of gods? Then why didn't he and life, as the primordial beings, sense it?
That's really strange!
The God of Destruction shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

As long as we can expand the divine realm and achieve development, that's all that matters!

"That's it for today."

After leaving this message for the seven gods of original sin, the god of destruction couldn't wait to leave the Castle of Destruction and head to the Forest of Life to garner votes from the goddess of life, creating a three-against-two situation.

Thus, only the seven original sin gods were left looking at each other in bewilderment.

……

The Divine Council, the main hall of the palace.

At this moment, five people were sitting around the round table in the main hall, representing order, destruction, life, goodness, and evil.

"Gentlemen, recently many humans in the lower realms have reached the pinnacle of their cultivation, requiring the position of a deity to enter my divine realm. It is time to continue expanding the divine realm." With a flickering crimson light in his eyes, suppressing his excitement, the God of Destruction cut to the chase, directly stating the purpose of this meeting.

"this…"

The god of evil and the god of good frowned almost simultaneously.

Clearly, while they did not oppose it, they ultimately felt that the God of Destruction's proposal was too risky.

Of course, the God of Destruction had raised similar issues more than once. But when Tang San was still around, he always vetoed them, and then they would vote in favor, while the Goddess of Life would hold reservations.

But it's different now.

Seeing that the goddess of life remained silent, Chen Junting remained calm and composed...

After a moment of looking at each other in bewilderment, the evil god spoke.

"Destruction and the creation of the God Realm come with great risks. It could shake the very foundation of our God Realm. The risks are too great. One wrong move could cause turmoil throughout the entire God Realm, and even affect the changes in the entire star system monitored by the God Realm. The impact on the human world is immeasurable. Perhaps... we should discuss this again later?"

"boom--"

Upon hearing the words "after her," the God of Destruction was instantly enraged!

How many times has this happened?!
Don't use that same excuse to deal with him!

"no!"

"Absolutely! The realm of gods must develop!"

"Don't get agitated, don't get agitated..."

The God of Evil soothed, glancing out of the corner of his eye at the God of Kindness. Blazing Flame sighed inwardly, looking at the Goddess of Life and Chen Junting, "I wonder what the two God-Kings think?"

The goddess of life smiled quietly, "I will not express my opinion."

Chen Junting raised an eyebrow. "I agree with that. We can't throw the baby out with the bathwater, can we? After all, development is the only way forward."

Seeing that the two god-kings agreed and the goddess of life was ambiguous in her attitude, the evil god and the good god, who were not very firm in their decision to begin with, no longer objected and even opened up the matter directly.

"Then we agree." ×2
it is good!
Very good!
Seeing that his goal had finally been achieved after many years and numerous setbacks, the God of Destruction was filled with excitement!
He had been waiting for this moment for far too long!

He knew it all along: Tang San was the stumbling block!
"Now that the proposal has been approved, let's not delay any longer. We'll notify the gods of the divine realm shortly, and then immediately begin expanding the divine realm!"

Faced with the God of Destruction's radicalism, Chen Junting could only pour cold water on it, saying, "'Expanding the God Realm' is no small matter, and some things need to be clarified before it can proceed. For example, the dangers that may be encountered during the expansion of the God Realm must be prevented in advance. Also, after the expansion of the God Realm is completed, when will the barrier of the God Realm be fully restored and have the ability to resist the super-strong spacetime turbulence?"

"Super-powerful spacetime turbulence!?"

Aside from the slightly aware of the destruction, the God-Kings of Life, Goodness, and Evil were taken aback upon hearing this, but quickly recovered.

As the most frequent type of attack encountered since the founding of the God Realm, it was not surprising that Chen Junting would bring it up. However, Chen Junting's next words shocked the gods.

“That’s right. Based on my estimation using the power of destiny and the power of the central authority of the God Realm, it will take less than four thousand days. Moreover, the power of this spacetime turbulence is far greater than any other one recorded in the history of the God Realm, five times greater than the last one.”

Chen Junting's eyes were sharp as he swept over the crowd.

"So now there's only one last problem with expanding the divine realm. Once we use the spiritual power we've accumulated to expand the divine realm, will the barrier of the divine realm be able to recover in time to withstand the great calamity?"

"If so, then we'll begin immediately."

"If not, then the time will have to be postponed."

"Now you all need to give me an answer."
