Chapter 222: Dual God King Positions, Three Super Divine Artifacts!
The God Realm had already been established.
Lei Chen stood quietly in the center of this newborn space, where the colorful glow of Laws flowed. Beneath his feet was divine soil as warm and smooth as jade; above his head was a dome evolving with infinite mysteries; and his entire body was bathed in a dense, pure aura of divine force.
However, his mind did not linger too much on admiring the scenery of this newborn God Realm. Instead, he calmly looked inward, sensing the deeper and more fundamental changes that followed his completion of this World-creating feat.
The most significant change was the "Plane Master" status, which had always been closely linked to his Soul Origin and represented his absolute control over the Douluo Plane.
In the past, although this status granted him the Supreme authority to govern the Laws of the plane and mobilize Origin energy, its nature was closer to that of a "manager" or "guardian." The manifestation of his power relied more on calling upon the plane's own energy and guiding its Laws. While vast and matchless, it lacked a certain transcendent "quality" unique to himself.
But now, everything was different.
The successful creation of the God Realm was not just a dimensional upgrade and expansion of the Douluo Plane; it was also an ultimate leap in the life level and authority of himself, the "architect" and "Dominator."
As a higher-dimensional existence, the God Realm's Law activity, energy level, and structural stability were far beyond those of ordinary planes. As the one who created it with his own hands and was destined to become its sole Supreme, his authority as the "Plane Master" naturally underwent a fundamental sublimation with the birth of the God Realm!
"Buzz..."
A silent resonance of Laws echoed deep within his Soul.
The brand representing the "Plane Master," which was originally a complex and hazy mark intertwined with the World's Origin, began to rapidly condense, purify, and transform!
It was no longer just a "credential of authority" for connection and mobilization. Instead, it began to contract and settle inward, absorbing the most fundamental Law essence and creation afterglow from the process of establishing the new God Realm. It began a deep Fusion and resonance with his own God King Laws as the "God King of Thunder."
The Supreme majesty of the Thunder God Laws, the overbearing nature of creation, and the will to judge heaven and earth began an unprecedented, seamless Fusion and complementation with the heavy and broad nature of the "Plane Master" authority, which represented encompassing all things, carrying all living beings, and evolving all Laws.
Thunder could be a giant axe to carve out a World, a sweet rain to nourish all things, or a ruler to maintain order. This achieved perfect alignment at the highest level with the responsibilities of the "Plane Master" to govern, harmonize, and promote the evolution of the plane.
The two Supreme authorities, at his Soul Origin, were like two spiraling galaxies, intertwining, penetrating, and strengthening each other.
Finally, the brand of the "Plane Master" completely shed its former haziness and external feel, transforming into a three-dimensional sigil that complemented the "God King of Thunder" brand yet remained distinctly different.
This sigil displayed a chaotic color, as if encompassing all colors in the World yet returning to nothingness. Its form shifted constantly—sometimes like a miniature nebula vortex, sometimes like a World Tree rooted in the Void Realm, and sometimes like a crown woven from countless Law threads. It no longer radiated simple governing pressure, but a deeper, more root-level will: the will to create, carry, and protect.
A God King-level Plane Master status!
At this point, within Lei Chen's body, two God King brands representing different Supreme authorities stood side by side.
One was a chaotic purple-gold lightning, symbolizing ultimate destruction, creation, and judgment; it was the Peak of offense, the sharp edge of the Laws.
The other was a chaotic, all-encompassing myriad of things, symbolizing infinite carrying, evolution, and protection; it was the weight of the Foundation, the heart of the World.
The two God King brands were not isolated; with his Soul as the core, they formed a perfect and stable "dual-core" system. Energy flowed between them, and Laws complemented each other, forming an unending, Supreme cycle.
A vast aura that surpassed a single God King—more harmonious, flawless, and unfathomable—naturally emanated from Lei Chen. It was not flamboyant, yet it made the surrounding new God Realm space seem more solid and stable, and the flowing Law lights seemed more docile and orderly.
"Whew..." Lei Chen slowly exhaled a long breath. This breath was not foul air but a mist mixed with faint thunderlight and chaotic glow. After leaving his body, it quickly merged into the surrounding divine force, turning into the purest nourishment.
He opened his eyes. In the depths of his pupils, his left eye seemed to hold the birth and death of a thunder Universe, while his right eye reflected the evolution and Reincarnation of all things. The two visions flashed and vanished, returning to deep tranquility.
"Dual God King positions..." he whispered to himself, feeling the surging, new power system within him that seemed to possess infinite changes and possibilities.
This was not just a simple addition of total power; it was a qualitative change and sublimation. What he could now mobilize was not just the great power of thunder, nor just the vastness of the plane's Origin, but a "Creation" power derived from the combination of two Supreme authorities, which was closer to the World's original rules!
With a slight thought, he raised his left hand. Atop his palm, a speck of purple-gold thunderlight jumped and then rapidly evolved. Within a few breaths, it condensed out of thin air into a small, vibrant miniature forest composed entirely of pure thunder divine force. In the forest, there were even small beasts formed of thunderlight running and playing, lifelike as if they were real creations.
He brushed his right hand, and a chaotic glow swept past. The thunder forest instantly stabilized, its roots connecting with the surrounding divine soil as if it had been rooted there for a thousand years. The violence of the thunder was perfectly restrained, transformed into gentle energy to nourish the growth of the trees.
Creation with one thought, stabilization with another—this was the mystery of the preliminary combination of the dual God King authorities.
Besides the leap in his own status, the Divine Artifacts that had accompanied him through years of battle also benefited greatly from this sublimation.
He looked down at the Nine Heavens Thunderstrike Sword in his hand, which had already been promoted to a Super Divine Artifact. The sword's body now had restrained brilliance and an ancient, heavy feel, but its internal "Thunder Realm Core" resonated directly with his dual God King brands.
When he injected divine force fused with the Plane Master's authority, the sword trembled slightly. What it radiated was no longer simple destructive Sword Intent, but a grand will of "adjudicating order" and "dividing clarity from turbidity." It was now not just the Incarnation of thunder but could be seen as the manifestation of the new God Realm's "Heavenly Punishment" and "Laws," with unfathomable power.
At the same time, he moved his mind.
The "Life Guardian Divine Armor," which usually remained invisible and only appeared at critical moments, quietly manifested as a faint phantom.
This set of Super Divine Artifact armor also seemed touched by the aura of the dual God King. Within the emerald green divine light flowing on the armor's surface, a hint of chaotic background and thunder patterns appeared. Its protective power was no longer limited to physical and energy defense but began to touch upon protection at the levels of Karma and Laws, echoing his protective authority as the Plane Master, becoming even more impeccable.
There was also the matchlessly sharp "heavenly saint abyss splitting halberd," which possessed the trait of "ignoring defense."
Although this Super Divine Artifact had extreme traits and its offensiveness topped all weapons, it now floated quietly in the Void Realm beside him. On the dark red blade of the halberd, the destructive fluctuations seemed to have been brought under a more orderly control.
As Lei Chen's gaze swept over it, the heavenly saint abyss splitting halberd let out a low hum, as if responding to the Supreme majesty of its new master. Under the command of the dual God King's will, its "ignore defense" trait might be able to act more precisely on the "weak points" and "contradictions" at the Law level.
The Nine Heavens Thunderstrike Sword governed the Law of Heavenly Punishment, excelling in both offense and defense with brilliant righteousness.
The Life Guardian Divine Armor governed absolute protection, immune to all Laws, with an immortal Foundation.
The heavenly saint abyss splitting halberd governed ultimate destruction, indestructible and sharp wherever it pointed.
The three treasures, with vastly different traits yet all reaching the Super Divine Artifact grade, were no longer simple weapons or armor under the command of his dual God King status. They were more like extensions of his different authorities and wills, forming an almost perfect offensive and defensive system sufficient to handle various extreme situations.
Lei Chen slowly clenched his fist, feeling the surging dual God King power within him, as well as the close, blood-linked connection with the three Super Divine Artifacts that felt as natural as moving his own limbs.
An unprecedentedly strong confidence welled up from the bottom of his heart.
This strength was not blind arrogance but a calm and certain composure based on a clear understanding of his own power level.
"With my current state..." Lei Chen's gaze seemed to pierce through the barriers of the new God Realm, looking toward the direction of the infinitely distant old God Realm that might be on its way back.
"Even if I face a God King opponent of the same level, with the breadth and depth of power brought by the dual God King status, plus the assistance of the three Super Divine Artifacts each performing their duties and complementing each other, I am absolutely certain I can slay them within this new realm!"
His voice was calm, yet it contained a resolute will.
The dual God King status allowed his power's essence to transcend that of a single God King. Whether it was the magnificence of his divine force, his control over Laws, or his understanding and response to combat, he occupied a higher level.
The three Super Divine Artifacts provided all-around means from frontal crushing and absolute defense to lethal breakthroughs. Not to mention, this was the new God Realm he had just personally created, which perfectly matched his authority!
Within this realm, he was the absolute Dominator. All Laws of heaven and earth could be used by him, making him virtually invincible.
"As for the old God Realm swept away by the Space-Time Turbulence..." A deep light flashed in Lei Chen's eyes.
If they truly could break free from their distant lost state and return to their homeland after many hardships, only to find that everything here had been turned upside down and a new God Realm and a new Supreme had been born... war would certainly be inevitable.
But the current Lei Chen was no longer the Plane Master who needed more time to accumulate.
"Even if they return with their entire realm, and several God Kings led by the Asura God Tang San arrive together..." Lei Chen stood with his hands behind his back, his aura as steady as a mountain, with chaotic glow and purple-gold thunder light intertwining in his eyes.
"I also have the confidence to fight them, relying on these dual God King positions, these three Super Divine Artifacts, and this newborn God Realm!"
