Douluo Dalu: Seven Kills

Chapter 685 Creation; The Arrival of Spacetime Turbulence (Part 2)

"Let's do it."

Upon hearing this, the gods, who were of one mind, took action one after another.

Without a word, the God of Destruction mobilized all his divine power, causing his body to gradually turn purple, as a powerful bolt of lightning suddenly flashed. He raised the Scepter of Destruction high, poured all his divine power into it, and began to continuously condense divine lightning of destruction.

Immediately, countless purple lightning bolts appeared and swirled around the flag, their power growing increasingly intense. A moment later, after the divine lightning's power had accumulated to its peak, the God of Destruction slammed down his Scepter of Destruction, manipulating the divine lightning to strike the shattered divine realm with a deafening roar—

Tens of thousands of divine lightning bolts, each as thick as a fist and containing immense destructive power, poured down like a celestial river onto the ravaged land of the divine realm.

The energy of the entire divine realm churned violently upon encountering the torrential downpour of destructive divine lightning. Furthermore, earth-shattering explosions echoed continuously, causing the already ravaged earth to completely crack and gradually disintegrate.

Everything, except for the barrier of the divine realm, was completely enveloped by the full power of the God of Destruction. The power of destruction had filled the divine realm, turning everything into nothingness and filling the barrier with mist. There was nothing else.

As the God of Destruction perished, Chen Junting, holding his divine sword high, also unleashed a strike. Simultaneously, a deafening sound of creation resounded, and the entire barrier of the divine realm trembled violently!

"upbraid--"

With a single swing of the sword, the mist was cleaved open.

The Bone Dragon's pupils and the Wings of Space, carrying spatial energy, crashed into the barrier of the Divine Realm. Just as the seemingly crumbling barrier stabilized, throughout the entire Divine Realm, with that earth-shattering roar, the swirling energy began to shatter and rapidly decompose under Chen Junting's manipulation.

Earth, water, fire, wind—

The four elements were born one after another!

To prevent the four elements from being assimilated or reduced to a pure form, Chen Junting's hands never stopped moving.

The divine sword instantly split in two!
The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation enveloped everything, fixing the earth, water, fire, and wind.

Without allowing them to merge into one, the Sword of Order was swung again and again, causing energy to transform wildly.

At the same time, Ning Tian, ​​Huo Yuhao, the God of Goodness, and the God of Evil also immediately took action. After the great destruction of the divine realm, they would recreate this land, providing a place for the gods to live. The four elements of earth, water, fire, and wind would form the foundation for creating the gods' dwelling place.

If we simply let these energies evolve on their own, not to mention when it will be effective or even if it will succeed, that's another matter entirely.

then…

Ning Tian hurled the red embroidered ball, and the spinning artifact resembled a celestial body in the universe, its divine power acting like a gravitational pull, instantly mobilizing the elements of the earth.

Although as the god of love he does not possess the advantages of the god of earth, as the king of gods he has done more than enough to achieve this.

The moment the earth element was completely gathered, the entire red embroidered ball resembled an earthy yellow planet rotating in the void.

Immediately afterwards, under Ning Tian's control, this earth-yellow "planet" with the super artifact at its core began to spew out endless viscous earth-yellow gas downwards, which was the energy of the earth element.

As these elemental energies descended, they rapidly intertwined, transforming into a vast, earthen-yellow net that completely covered the area beneath the divine realm. With Ning Tian's continuous infusion, this so-called net grew increasingly thick, gradually transforming from gas into solid.

Endless earth elemental energy condensed, transforming into solids such as rocks and soil. The great net gradually disappeared, its "lines" becoming rising mountain ranges, and the nodes of the "lines" becoming peaks.

Once the earth elemental energy on the surface of the red hydrangea was completely depleted, the area beneath the dome was entirely occupied by the earth. Looking around, the so-called protrusions and depressions were irregular, a barren and lifeless expanse of soil and rock.

As Ning Tian finished, ten golden rings suddenly enveloped the sky above the dome. Since ice and water are inseparable, the abundant water elemental energy, under Huo Yuhao's control, all flowed into the ten golden rings, like a tornado reaching straight into the heavens.

With a thought, one-tenth of the water energy was immediately stopped. In its place, a chill enveloped the area, causing the water element to solidify and the snow to fall to the ground.

In no time, the raised area was covered by ice and snow, but the sunken area stood out starkly against the backdrop.

But this is not the end.

The ten golden rings, having absorbed most of the water element, swirled and flew above the depressions. Suddenly, a surge of water vapor erupted from the rings, and the absorbed water element completely liquefied, spewing out endless streams of water that filled the depressions in no time.

In an instant, countless rivers, crisscrossing and winding, appeared on the once barren continent, and lakes and seas also emerged. The appearance of water brought a slight touch of life to the seemingly desolate land.

With the end of the local and water elements, the god of evil took the stage. The scales of judgment gathered the element of wind and then scattered it with a single blow, causing the invisible wind to roam the entire divine realm. The countless sands and waves that were stirred up seemed to be the breathing of the divine realm.

Immediately following, the high temperature suddenly rose, melting the ice and snow to nourish the earth. At the same time, these countless mountains suddenly spewed out large amounts of steaming lava, which flowed to the foot of the mountains in the blink of an eye, and then covered most of the continent, melting away almost all the sand and stones along the way, and melting one large hole after another in the layers of rock.

The god of goodness manipulated the element of fire in this way, causing endless magma to flow across the earth and bring devastating damage. However, after the magma solidified, the land where it flowed began to produce a large amount of metal deposits, all of which were divine treasures.

As the world began to take shape, the Goddess of Life radiated loving light, and the ancient Tree of Life shone with an emerald luster.

The branches unfurled, each leaf radiating a powerful glow. A rich, almost tangible life force transformed the divine realm into an ocean of life.

With her eyes closed, the Goddess of Life seemed to merge with the Ancient Tree of Life. At the moment when the deity and the divine artifact resonated in unison, the Ancient Tree of Life seemed to come alive. With a slight tremor, thick branches stretched out, and a dense aura of life rose into the air. Energy was amplified by its movement. Countless green points of light burst forth from the Ancient Tree of Life!
"Om-"

A powerful green light shot into the sky!

This is the power of life!

As life swept across the bleak earth, tiny blades of grass and saplings began to sprout. In just a few breaths, the earth was covered with scenes of green and vibrant colors, causing the entire divine realm to burst forth with life.

However, this immense vitality lasted only a moment before the vegetation expanded wildly, seemingly without any restraint.

But as an eternal tower collapsed, and deathly energy spread...

In an instant, whether on the land or in the sea, the vast amounts of vegetation that had flourished thanks to the goddess of life withered and died in large quantities.

The once thriving vegetation instantly withered and died, but their death was not the end; instead, they sank into the earth and nourished the soil. In the cyclical balance of life and death, flourishing and decay, this divine land was enriched with abundant nutrients.

Seemingly sensing that the time was ripe, and seeing that the life force was gradually being depleted, Electrox decided to stop while he was ahead. The Goddess of Life then took out a porcelain bottle and slowly tilted it to let the life force drip down.

The life energy contained in the Dew Bottle is of such a high level that even a single drop of emerald green liquid, when it falls into the earth, instantly creates a layer of emerald green ripples that dispel the dense death energy and revitalize the entire divine realm.

After all this was over, "Buzz—"

At the very center of the Divine Realm, a magnificent and imposing building instantly descended. The appearance of the Divine Realm Committee meant that the power of the Divine Realm's central authority once again enveloped the entire realm. The complete unleashing of this central authority's power also completely stabilized the Divine Realm's barrier. This meant that Gu Tianchen no longer needed to maintain the defensive stability of the Divine Realm's barrier, and he could thus cease his actions.

At this moment, the brand-new divine realm has been fully formed!
Looking at the empty, lifeless land before him, he thought, "Now that the realm of gods has taken shape, it's time to release everyone."

As he spoke, Chen Junting pointed a finger at the central hub of the divine realm.

At this moment, within the central hub of the God Realm, there was only a vast, seemingly endless platform upon which all the gods of the Douluo God Realm stood. The sole God-King level expert, Rong Nianbing, was in charge, and they all patiently waited.

Until suddenly, the world spun around...

In an instant, a brand new divine realm appeared before the gods.

……

"What did you say?"

After the creation of the new divine realm, the Divine Realm Committee convened once again, as the upcoming spacetime turbulence was of paramount importance.

However, during this time, Chen Junting raised a point.

He wanted to set up a grand array for the entire divine realm to protect it, and the first thing to be affected was this spacetime turbulence.

As for the name of the grand formation…

Its name is the Zhou Tian Star Array!
"What is the working principle behind this grand formation?"

The God of Destruction and the others had no doubt about Chen Junting's ability to design a grand array to protect the entire divine realm. After all, the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Array was there, enough to prove everything.

What truly puzzled them was the energy source for such a powerful array capable of protecting the divine realm. Could it be like the Original Sin Descent Array and the Elemental Stripping Array, with the gods as its core? However, Chen Junting quickly provided his answer.

"I intend to use the central hub of the divine realm as the core array eye, the star systems under the divine realm as the foundation, and the subordinate planes of the divine realm as auxiliary array eyes to set up the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Array to protect the divine realm! In this way, the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Array can only act externally and not internally, to prevent it from being abused due to internal strife."

Upon hearing this, the goddess of life's eyes lit up.

Closely following behind were the God of Destruction and his forces.

So the result was exactly as expected...

"by!"

"Second!" x7
The moment the consensus was reached, the Zhou Tian Star Array began its setup phase. Most importantly, it used the power of the Divine Realm's central hub to connect with the plane cores or plane spirits of its subordinate planes. Secondly, it linked the power of each star system. Then, it selected corresponding nodes on the Divine Realm's land and dome, connecting them with array patterns.

Within fifty days, the Zhou Tian Star Array was completed.

Unfortunately, there is no longer an opportunity to test it.

As time flowed on, the day that the spacetime turbulence arrived soon came, and the entire divine realm was quiet.

On this day, all nine God-Kings gathered in the Divine Realm Committee, their solemn expressions silencing the entire main hall.

until…

Suddenly, a soft buzzing sound rang out.

"Om-"

The azure sky, which should have been shrouded in mist, suddenly trembled the moment the buzzing sound appeared. Then, strange double images appeared, as if each cloud had split in parallel.

Sensing the anomaly, Chen Junting, who was already on high alert, waved his hand, and a screen of light appeared before the gods.

Among the numerous stars, there was a small, inconspicuous, yet faintly visible gray dot, which was steadily approaching the Douluo God Realm. Under the detection of the newly ascended God Realm's central hub, it had nowhere to hide.

To make it clearer for the gods, Chen Junting activated the third eye on his forehead, its vertical eye shining brightly, instantly reflecting and magnifying the small gray dot in the light screen.

The small gray dot was a strange entity, dull and inconspicuous, yet it seemed to be spinning violently. It could be vaguely seen that it was a vortex of airflow, and it was gradually growing larger, like a gray cloud, flying rapidly towards the divine realm.

"Such powerful spacetime turbulence!"

The God of Destruction's pupils suddenly contracted!
This scale was even greater than he had envisioned.

It was underestimated previously.

Out of caution, after his initial astonishment, the God of Destruction immediately said, "Simply relying on the gods to protect us is probably not enough. This scale will inevitably affect the realm of gods no matter what."

"Then let them all gather at the Divine Realm Committee."

This is a matter of divine mandate; there is no room for carelessness.

In any case, as soon as the God of Destruction was proposed, Chen Junting immediately approved it, and no god-king expressed any objection.

"Now that the spacetime turbulence has arrived, let's begin our defenses."

Chen Junting's gaze swept over everyone. "I will directly activate the Zhou Tian Star Array to wear down the spacetime turbulence. But this time, the Zhou Tian Star Array's most important function is not defense."

Oh?
Upon hearing this, several of them immediately became suspicious.

However, they only looked curious and didn't ask.

Just then, Chen Junting's next words explained the reason: "The mission of the Zhou Tian Star Array this time is to stabilize the God Realm."

As for why it's said to stabilize the divine realm...
