Chapter 52 - Chapter 52 -- Purchase of Douluo Star

"How is it? Can it be broken?"

Inside the God Realm Hall, divine light shimmered as countless gods gathered. Their gazes converged on the five God Kings at the highest seats, waiting for a definitive answer.

"No."

The God King of Destruction frowned deeply. "This barrier directly envelops the entire Douluo Star. Even if we mobilize the full power of the God Realm, breaking it would be exceedingly difficult."

"Other than preventing descent, are there any additional restrictions?" someone asked.

"Apparently not." The Sea God spoke after a brief pause. "I've tested it myself. Divine edicts can still be transmitted to the lower realm. Even the transfer of power is possible—"

He suddenly stopped.

Asura narrowed his eyes. "What happened?"

"When I attempted to send divine power to my inheritance site, I received a warning."

"A warning?" Several gods leaned forward.

"An unknown existence informed me that any power transmitted may only be used for matters directly related to God Position inheritance. Any other usage is forbidden."

"If it's discovered that I'm disguising other intentions as inheritance matters, or abusing divine power, a heavenly tribulation will descend. The severity will depend on the degree of violation."

The Sea God exhaled slowly. "In short, gods are prohibited from interfering with the lower realm."

"Hypocritical."

The God King of Destruction snorted. "If gods truly can't interfere, then what exactly is he doing?"

The moment those words fell, murmurs rippled through the hall. Many gods nodded in agreement, their expressions dark.

That Sacrificial Dao Lord spoke with lofty righteousness, yet who knew if his true goal was to monopolize the faith of the entire Douluo Continent?

"Whether he's a hypocrite is irrelevant." Asura's voice cut through the noise, cold and sharp. "The real question is—can the God Realm withstand him if he turns hostile?"

Silence followed.

"…Probably not." The Goddess of Life spoke softly after sensing the barrier's energy. Compared to the God Realm's plane, the two were not even on the same level of existence.

"If we can't resist him, then so be it." The Evil God King shrugged. "It's only one Douluo Star."

"Only?" Destruction's expression turned grim. "Today it's Douluo Star. Tomorrow, it could be the God Realm itself!"

His reaction was fierce. After all, the Goddess of Life's fate was deeply bound to the God Realm Plane. Any threat to it was intolerable.

"Then do you have a better idea?" Evil retorted lazily.

"I suggest—"

Before Destruction could finish, a beam of radiant light descended, instantly enveloping the entire God Realm Plane. The God Realm Hall trembled as an eight-grade life energy pearl appeared midair.

Majestic, boundless vitality surged outward. Every god instinctively took a deep breath, their divine bodies resonating with the energy.

At the same time, vast fragments of information flooded their consciousness—knowledge of the boundless universe beyond the God Realm Plane.

Once the transmission was complete, the light withdrew calmly, retreating to the entrance of the hall.

"So…" someone murmured, stunned, "this is the purchase price?"

"Using partial cosmic information and this pearl… he's buying the entire Douluo Star?"

The gods exchanged glances. The more they thought about it, the more reasonable the transaction seemed.

"That appears to be his intent." Destruction examined the pearl, feeling its overwhelming vitality. The hostility he'd harbored earlier faded significantly.

"I don't think this deal should be accepted." The Sea God suddenly spoke with righteous indignation.

Several gods nearly rolled their eyes.

You're already calling it a deal. Who exactly are you trying to fool?

"If you have something to say, speak plainly." Asura's expression remained unreadable.

Everyone here had known each other for countless years. They might not understand the Sacrificial Dao Lord, but Poseidon's character was no mystery.

"This transaction is unfair to gods who already have inheritances on Douluo Star," the Sea God declared. "I demand additional compensation."

The War God's eyes lit up instantly. "That's right! The information and pearl benefit all gods equally. Those of us with inheritances suffer extra losses—we deserve compensation!"

Several gods began echoing the sentiment.

Meanwhile, the gods without inheritances frowned. They neither wanted to see the God Realm disgraced nor allow others to exploit the situation.

More benefits? Dream on.

The hall erupted into heated debate, but it didn't last long.

Before any conclusion could be reached, the light at the entrance surged again, expanding to envelop the hall. When it receded, twenty-one sets of divine battle armor hovered silently in the air.

Exactly twenty-one.

Exactly matching the number of gods with inheritances on Douluo Star.

Even more astonishing—each set perfectly aligned with its owner's attributes.

Before envy could turn into action, the battle armor shattered into streams of light, flying unerringly toward their rightful owners.

When the Sea God's armor attached, towering waves manifested behind him. Asura's armor erupted with blood-red sword qi, sharp enough to rend space itself.

Asura closed his eyes, carefully testing its defense. After a moment, he spoke.

"Super Divine Tool level. When facing an attack of equal strength, damage is reduced by roughly thirty percent. Against first-level gods, about fifty percent. Second-level gods—ninety percent. Anything below that is negligible."

"My armor is First-Level Divine Tool grade," the Sea God added proudly, admiring the azure radiance around him. "Thirty percent reduction against first-level gods, fifty against second-level, ninety against god officials. Below that—ignored."

His mood soared.

After passing down his inheritance, when he explored the universe, this armor alone would multiply his survivability.

Other gods soon reported similar results. The strength of each battle armor was clearly tailored to its owner.

Free Divine Tool–level armor… and Asura even received a Super Divine Tool.

Evil suddenly shouted, "Actually, I was planning to leave an inheritance on Douluo Star too! I was just busy recently—"

Before he could finish, the light at the entrance flashed—and vanished.

Gone.

Evil froze, staring blankly.

It felt as though his nonexistent Super Divine Tool had vanished with it.

Destruction looked away, unwilling to acknowledge his companion's embarrassment. "Why don't we use the eight-grade life energy pearl to expand the God Realm Plane? It would allow us to accommodate more gods and greatly enhance existing ones."

There was selfish intent in his words. Such an expansion would benefit the Goddess of Life the most.

He expected resistance.

After all, the pearl's energy was immense. If absorbed freely, every god present could reach—or even surpass—the Dragon God's former level.

Yet Asura merely glanced up, then returned his attention to his armor.

The Kind God King saw through Destruction's thoughts but didn't object. Strengthening the entire God Realm outweighed personal concerns.

As for Evil?

He had already sprinted to the entrance, shouting, "If it doesn't work, a first-level god armor is fine too!"

To act like this over divine armor…

Absolutely disgraceful.

Shaking his head, Destruction carefully handed the life energy pearl to his wife for safekeeping.

Overseas, Sea God Island.

"Great Priestess… did the Sea God issue a divine edict?" Sea Dragon Douluo asked nervously.

The nine-story golden pagoda standing boldly among the seven cities was simply too conspicuous.

"Yes." Bo Saixi nodded, still visibly surprised. "The Sea God instructs us not to interfere."

She paused. "Even Sea Spirit Masters may freely enter and exit the Training Ground."

The group exchanged glances, stunned.

Such concession… could it be that even the Sea God was no match for the Sacrificial Dao Lord?

"No matter what," Sea Girl Douluo said eagerly, "since the Sea God permits it, we should explore the Training Ground—and that Sacrificial Shop."

Curiosity burned in everyone's eyes.

Bo Saixi considered briefly, then nodded. Bound by duty, she herself hadn't left the island in many years.

"Ten days from now," she said, "enter through the training towers near your respective Sacred Pillars."

"As for the Sacrificial Shop—there's too much unknown. We'll postpone that."

"The other party is at least a divine envoy. Caution is necessary."

Her gaze turned thoughtful.

Since Qian Daoliu was also there… she would ask him personally.
