Douluo Continent: The Eternal Order of the Azure Sky.

The mountain road was bumpy, and the dim lights inside the carriage shifted an inch, illuminating the map in a half-light and half-dark manner.

A thick ink line extends westward from Mingdu, marking away the old road that originally wound around the mountain, and replacing it with a slender new path.

They disappeared into the western mountains.

……

Mingdu, inside a low-key yet sophisticated attic.

Several elderly men in black sat around a round table. The leader, the Original Sin Douluo, closed his eyes and remained silent, stroking the beautiful face of the girl in the moon-white uniform in his arms.

The wound on his forehead had disappeared—or rather, his entire face had been completely transformed.

“Brother, we are all saddened by Chusheng’s death, but didn’t the leader say that he would take action once the Supreme Leader emerges from seclusion? What are you doing…”

The silence made the atmosphere even more stagnant, and the Second Elder, Nangong Wan, carefully considered his words before speaking.

They were all elders of the Holy Spirit Cult, having grown up within the cult. They had a deep bond and addressed each other as brothers. However, their strength was inferior to that of the worshippers. Apart from their leader, the Original Sin Douluo, none of the others had reached level 95.

“Even if the Supreme Elder emerges from seclusion, he may not necessarily make a move. I can’t just wait here.” The Original Sin Douluo’s voice was hoarse. “I have already taken action.”

"What?!" The Third Elder, Nether Thunder Douluo, slammed his fist on the table in shock.

"Aren't they going to the Sun and Moon Mountains for a sacrificial ceremony today? It's so close to Mingdu, even with the sect leader's help, they might not be able to do it without leaving a trace. That old bastard Mingyue is going with them, he's not easy to deal with, brother."

“I know him; he’s good at escaping, so my goal isn’t to kill them, but to trap them until they die. Once the Supreme Master emerges from seclusion, we can only go with the flow.”

"Why are you sleepy?" Masked Douluo asked in confusion.

"Do you still remember the place the leader mentioned before?" The Original Sin Douluo smiled sinisterly, his grip tightening even more despite the trembling of the girl in his arms.

"An hour later, even immortals will not be able to escape."

……

It seems like we haven't arrived yet. Why has the convoy stopped?

Kong Tianxu slowly exited his deep meditation state, and golden light flowed as he opened his eyes. He vaguely felt that his spiritual power seemed to have reached a bottleneck, not only in terms of intensity but also in terms of realm.

Just as he was about to observe the situation outside the carriage, Kong Tangyu suddenly opened the door to their carriage and said with a serious expression:

"Tianxu, we're probably in trouble."

Without needing Kong Tangyu's prompting, Kong Tianxu looked up at the sky and was immediately astonished. He discovered that the sky was completely covered by a thick fog. Only five meters below the ground was the fog less dense. Moreover, the fog in the sky faintly displayed shifting shades of gold and silver.

Although the range of his X-ray vision did not decrease, the energy consumption increased significantly, to the point that even the Holy Essence Gathering could not maintain his soul power in a dynamic balance.

Kong Tangyu said in a deep voice:

"You've felt it too, haven't you? Our senses have been greatly weakened. We should have reached our destination by now, but the fog above us is like a cage, trapping us here."

Xu Tianzhen rubbed her sleepy eyes and couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty Mingyue, can't you fly out and take a look?"

Kong Tangyu shook his head and said:

"I tried, but it didn't work. Once I took off, it felt like the entire sky was conspiring against me; an immense pressure would force me back down. If I hadn't landed in time, my level-nine flight soul tool would probably have been destroyed. It's really strange; everything was normal when I came here..."

Western Hills, no-fly zone, fog...

Could it be!

Kong Tianxu suddenly rushed out of the carriage. Because of the strange sight outside, the other members of the Sun and Moon Team also came out of the carriage, but they were also at a loss as to what to do about this bizarre scene.

With his soul power and mental power surging wildly, Kong Tianxu pushed his elemental vision and clairvoyance to their limits, finally glimpsing a scene within this strange, dense fog that even a Limit Douluo couldn't see through.

"Grandpa, where are we roughly now?"

In the boundless silence, he clenched his fists nervously.

Kong Tangyu frowned and thought for a moment, "It should be a small path inside the Sun and Moon Mountains. What's wrong, Tianxu? Did you find anything?"

There can't be any mistake.

Kong Tianxu watched as a golden and silver halo surged from the shadows like a tide in the distance, then crushed the incredibly solid seven-colored rune in his hand.

Fortunately, I had a backup plan.

But this is just too much...

"Tell everyone, no matter what happens later,"

He spoke almost word by word, his expression more serious than ever before. Cain even noticed that the usually confident man's palms were slightly sweaty from nervousness.

"You must, you absolutely must, tell the truth."

Sun and Moon Mountains, Heaven and Earth Question Love, the Holy Spirit Cult's deadly trap has begun.

Thick fog surged in, and amidst a strange golden and silver light, the figures of the group vanished.

Chapter 81 Destruction, Life, and the Nine-Colored Goddess

Clouds and mist, nothing but clouds and mist.

Golden, ethereal clouds surged, and the air was filled with a rich variety of elements that rippled in a wondrous way, radiating a soft halo that was both illusory and strangely tangible.

In the distance, there seemed to be a magnificent palace, which appeared dreamlike and ethereal under the soft glow of the light, yet also possessed a breathtaking reality.

Two figures slowly emerged from the clouds.

"Ah Zi, are you still troubled by Shura's matter? Doesn't it feel better to go for a walk?"

The speaker was a woman in a light green dress. Her smile was gentle, and although she wasn't exceptionally beautiful, she possessed a dignified and serene air, and her every move seemed to shimmer with a golden light. That vibrant energy was unforgettable.

"After all these years, you're still the only one who can't get enough of looking at me."

The man she called Azi spoke in a cold, hard tone, yet naturally took her hand. He was completely shrouded in a cloak, making him difficult to see clearly, except for the occasional flashes of deep purple on his face. It was hard to imagine that such a fleeting beauty, a sense of life and death, could be emanating from a living being.

“Shura has gone too far this time. When he first arrived in the God Realm, he repeatedly broke the rules because of personal feelings. The two God Kings of good and evil said that he was a newcomer, so I tolerated it. But now that he has begun to take charge of the overall situation in the Upper God Realm, he is still so reckless.”

"It's one thing to allow his daughter to descend to the mortal realm with divinity. On one hand, he claims to strictly control the succession of divine positions, while on the other hand, he sends two beast souls with human bodies who are not qualified to be divine officials down to the mortal realm, calling it a divine test. In the end, the task of the divine test is to protect his daughter and help her grow up safely? It's utterly absurd!"

The man sneered coldly, and as his emotions changed, the cloud turned purple at an alarming speed. The soft halo seemed to be startled and vanished into nothingness in a tremor.

"Alas, humans are always like this. The two god-kings, good and evil, would rather hand over control of the divine realm to a new god than give it to you. Why bother with such a divine realm? If he were still here..." The woman in the green dress sighed softly.

"Don't mention him. Even if it happened again, I would still make the same choice." The man seemed to have thought of something, and became calmer, only his voice was colder.

Seeing the woman visibly dejected, the man's attitude finally softened:

"Besides, aren't we already looking for a suitable successor? But as long as I am still an enforcer of the divine realm, I absolutely cannot stand by and watch the rules of the divine realm be broken."

"Okay~ Oh, the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Mirror is open again? It's rare that we have nothing to do today. Ah Zi, let's go take a look together."

The woman in the green dress responded gently, and then, as if sensing something, made a suggestion in a soft voice.

"The Mysterious Mirror of Cupid?"

A purple light flashed within the man's cloak. He instinctively wanted to refuse, but then, as if remembering something, he asked with interest:

"I remember it was reflected in Douluo Continent back then, right? It's the hometown of Shura."

The woman in the green dress nodded, seemingly puzzled as to why her husband, who usually had very little curiosity, had suddenly changed his gender.

“That’s certainly something we can go and take a look at.” His tone rose slightly.

With a flash of silver light, the two people, or rather, the two gods, vanished from their spot in an instant.

"Wow, I thought that Soul King who was not even fifteen years old was already an unparalleled genius, but how come there's a Soul King who's only thirteen years old? He's even more incredible than that old guy. The Soul Masters on Douluo Star are getting stronger with each generation. Luckily, we were born in an early era and benefited from Third Brother's influence, otherwise we really wouldn't be able to compete with these younger generations."

At the summit of Yunshan Mountain, Ning Rongrong looked at the boy in the gold and silver bubbles in the mirror, patted her chest and sighed, completely unaware of the two figures that had quietly appeared behind her.

"Hehe, the position that Third Brother arranged is really good, otherwise the God Realm would be too boring. This little boy is so handsome, it's a pity he's from the Sun Moon Continent. Let me have some fun with you before deciding whether to tell Third Brother."

She gave a wicked, witch-like smile, cleared her throat, and was about to speak in a flat tone when the man's cold words made her tremble with fear.

"Nine-Colored Goddess, is this how you manage the Mysterious Heavenly Mirror?"

Why did it have to be him who has to die...?

She turned around awkwardly, and although she was very unwilling, she still obediently bowed in greeting.

"The Nine-Colored Goddess pays homage to the God of Destruction and the God of Life."

Purple light flickered within the God of Destruction's cloak, and an endless, profound aura of terror emanated from it. Ning Rongrong's body was enveloped in nine-colored divine light, which protected her, but it was instantly suppressed back into her body, causing her to collapse to the ground, her face pale.

Upon seeing this, the God of Life gently shook the hand of the God of Destruction, and azure light descended, neutralizing the God of Destruction's oppressive aura. Ning Rongrong's complexion improved considerably.

"This is a one-time exception. You should have learned the rules of the divine realm. Don't think that just because you're one of the Asuras, I won't dare to touch you."

The profound aura was released and then withdrawn; the God of Destruction's attitude eventually softened under the persuasion of the God of Life.

"The Nine-Colored Goddess respectfully follows the teachings of the enforcer."

Ning Rongrong got up in a disheveled state, inwardly grumbling, but outwardly showing no sign of it. Facing this God of Destruction, who acted rigidly and enforced the divine realm's rules with near-obsessive zeal, she dared not disobey him in the slightest.

Legend has it that this person once personally stripped away the divine status and annihilated the soul of a powerful first-level god who violated the rules of the divine realm. Even Third Brother suffered greatly at her hands, let alone a mere second-level god like her.

“Alright, Nine-Colored Goddess, just act impartially from now on,” the Goddess of Life smoothed things over. “Continue to preside over the Trial of Love and Destiny. My husband and I are just passing by.”

She turned to the god of destruction, only to find that her husband's gaze was completely absorbed in the image in the mirror.

Do you have a lover?

The same calm voice rang out, but Kong Tianxu, who was inside the gold and silver bubbles, noticed that the voice was slightly more rapid and seemed to have more emotional fluctuations than before.

What changes have occurred in the realm of the gods?

He thought for a moment, then tentatively began to speak:

"I'm only thirteen years old this year."

The calm voice was clearly choked by him. Ning Rongrong almost subconsciously condensed a whip of divine power, and then reluctantly dispersed when she felt the gaze of destruction piercing towards her.

"Do you have a lover? If you don't answer after being asked three times, the punishment is death."

Something's changed! Kong Tianxu's gaze sharpened.

"No."

But he still needs to observe further.

"Do you have someone you like?" The calm voice rang out again.

Kong Tianxu's Adam's apple bobbed; he hadn't quite mastered his balancing act yet... but he still answered without hesitation:

"Cain,"
