Douluo Continent: The Underworld Emperor Halosa Lets Three Fly

Chapter 248 Conquest

In her view, apart from a few top-tier beings like the Silver Dragon King, the soul beasts on Douluo Star in the past did not exhibit the power to shake the God Realm.

Even if they have developed in their new home for thousands of years, their chances of winning against a divine realm with three god-kings, three hundred and sixty righteous gods, a strict system, and a war machine that operates with high efficiency are slim.

Time continued to flow, and amidst the tense atmosphere of preparation, everything quietly came to fruition.

On this day, at the Temple of Reincarnation.

The temple, which originally symbolized silence and supreme authority, was now filled with a solemn and imposing aura. The temple remained magnificent and solemn, with the divine runes of reincarnation slowly rotating like stars on the dome, casting a cool light.

Below, in what was once an empty hall, hundreds of figures now stood in orderly rows.

These figures varied in form; some were as imposing as mountains, some as graceful as the wind, some were shrouded in elemental radiance, and some possessed an aura as restrained as an abyss. They all exuded divine power of varying strength, yet without exception, they all possessed extremely solid and powerful auras.

These were the elite subordinate gods of the Samsara God Realm, preparing to march on the Dragon-Horse Galaxy! From first-level gods to third-level gods, they stood solemnly in formation, completely silent, according to their divine rank and sequence. An invisible pressure gathered together, making the space within the temple seem viscous.

At the far end of the temple, on the towering throne of reincarnation, Harosa sat majestically.

Today, he was not wearing his usual clothes, but instead wore a dark gold divine king battle armor engraved with countless reincarnation patterns. Although he did not deliberately exude an aura, the divine king's majesty that he naturally revealed, which was above all things, was enough to make all the gods feel awe and dare not look directly at him.

Two people stood on either side of his throne, a step in front of him.

On the left is Yali, the Goddess of Life. She wears an elegant yet luxurious robe, holds a staff wrapped in emerald vines, and has a calm and gentle expression. Her golden eyes contain a comforting power and an undeniable determination.

On the right is the Archmage King Elex, still dressed in an ancient gray mage robe, holding the Eternal Staff. The huge phantom of the Meditation Tower looms behind him, his face expressionless, except for the soul fire leaping in his eye sockets, which flickers with a wise and profound light.

The auras of the three god-kings intertwined, forming the unshakeable core of power and strength in the Samsara God Realm.

Harossa's deep gaze, as if it were a physical entity, slowly swept across the faces of each of the gods below, taking in their tension, excitement, and determination.

After a moment of silence, his deep and magnetic voice, like a resounding bell, echoed clearly in the depths of the souls of every deity: "Everyone."

Just two words were enough to invigorate the spirits of all the gods, making them stand even straighter.

"After three thousand years of searching and stabilization, the wormhole connecting the Dragon Horse Galaxy is now open!" Harosa's voice wasn't loud, but it carried a world-shaking power. "This means that my Samsara God Realm's expansion outwards, its acquisition of resources, and its march towards a wider universe will officially begin from this moment!"

He paused slightly, allowing the news to settle in the minds of the gods.

"The Dragon-Horse Galaxy is rich in resources and contains numerous dimensional planets, making it the perfect source of sustenance for the further development of my divine realm and for your pursuit of greater power! However, every gain comes at a price. This journey is not a tour, but a conquest! A plunder! A quest to pave the way for the eternal foundation of my Reincarnation Divine Realm!"

"War inevitably brings casualties." Harosa's tone turned cold. "Perhaps some of you will exhaust your divine power, shatter your divine status, and have your divine souls perish on foreign planets."

His words were like a cold wind that swept through the temple. Some of the gods' eyes flickered slightly, but no one backed down.

"But!" Harosa's voice suddenly rose, filled with fervor and absolute confidence, "Those who return alive will be bathed in the blood of the enemy, forging unparalleled achievements, gaining even greater power and higher authority! Your names will be engraved on the monument of the gods, revered for all eternity!"

"And even if you die in battle!" His gaze was piercing, as if he could see through life and death, "I, in the name of the God-King of Reincarnation, promise you all! Those who die for my divine realm will have their souls preserved and will be allowed to enter my cycle of reincarnation! I will personally send you off to your next life, preserving a trace of your true spirit so that you may be reborn as humans! If there is an opportunity in the future, you may well be able to return to your divine position and continue your past lives!"

Upon hearing this, the last trace of hesitation in the eyes of the gods below vanished completely, replaced by fervor and determination! With the God-King's personal permission for reincarnation, it was equivalent to having a get-out-of-jail-free card. Although they would lose their cultivation in this life, their true spirit would be preserved, and they would have hope for an afterlife. This was the worst-case scenario guarantee!

Harosar slowly rose to his feet, his dark golden divine armor emitting a deep hum. He looked down at the hundreds of subordinate gods below, his voice like a storm sweeping across the starry sea, uttering his final question, a final mobilization before the battle: "Now, tell me one..."

"For the development of the God Realm of Reincarnation, and for your own paths to enlightenment!"

"On this journey, the dragon-horse will fight bloody battles on all sides—"

""

"Are you all afraid or not?!"

"I'm not afraid!!!"

"I'm not afraid!!!"

"I'm not afraid!!!"

A deafening roar, like billions of thunderbolts exploding simultaneously within the temple! The battle intent and divine power unleashed by hundreds of deities converged into a terrifying torrent, visible to the naked eye and mixed with various divine lights, rushing straight to the temple dome and shaking the entire Samsara God Realm! The killing intent soared to the heavens, and the conviction was as firm as iron!

Harosar looked down at the fervent and battle-ready gods below and nodded in satisfaction. He waved his hand, his voice resounding throughout the universe: "Very well! Since that's the case..."

"Gods, heed my command!"

"Follow me—onto the battlefield!"

Harosa's pre-battle mobilization boosted the morale and fighting spirit of the gods in the Samsara God Realm to their peak. Seeing that the army's morale was high, he said no more and simply raised his hand and made a light sweeping motion in the void.

hum!

A massive, ancient portal, its edges emanating a greyish-white aura of reincarnation, suddenly burst open! It was the Gate to the Underworld.

Now that the Gate to the Underworld has completely taken control of the Douluo Galaxy and its Law Network covers the entire region, its power is incomparable to what it once was. It is no longer just a passage connecting the two worlds, but can also serve as a stable spatial teleportation node, allowing users to freely reach most of the known coordinates within the Douluo Galaxy.

The reason for continuing to use the old name "Gate of the Underworld" is partly due to habit, and partly because the real "Gate of Reincarnation" is Harossa's exclusive artifact for governing the reincarnation of living beings. Its symbolic meaning and function are different and need to be distinguished.

"Set off!"

At Harosa's command, the gods, who had been unable to contain themselves any longer, immediately transformed into beams of divine light of various colors and entered the gates of the underworld in an orderly fashion.

In a flash of light, hundreds of gods had traversed the endless starry sky and appeared before the wormhole that Harosa had secured with his divine power, connecting it to the Dragon Horse Galaxy.

The colossal wormhole resembled a slowly rotating nebula vortex, its edges enveloped and reinforced by countless intricate runes of reincarnation, emanating stable spatial fluctuations. The gods gathered at the wormhole's entrance, their powerful divine energy naturally converging and causing subtle ripples in the surrounding space.

Harosa's gaze sharpened, and with a flick of his sleeve, an invisible force of reincarnation spread out, like the most skillful hand, instantly smoothing out all spatial disturbances caused by the gathering of gods, ensuring the absolute stability of the wormhole structure.
