One for Diversion, One for a Child: Two Goddesses Descend to the Mortal World
Just then, the voice of the Bodhi Ancient Tree resounded in Lin Hai's mind:
"Just a heads-up, two deities with strength around the high-level Dou Zong level have arrived nearby."
Lin Hai was immediately startled and replied telepathically, "High-level Dou Zong? Stronger than Gu Yuena?"
"Judging solely from the level of aura I've sensed so far, that's indeed the case," the Bodhi Ancient Tree confirmed.
Compared to Gu Yuena, who appeared so openly and boldly, their auras are much more subtle, and I cannot easily perceive their true nature.
'But if you want to know, I can do it too, it just will take some of my strength.'
Its aura is even stronger than Gu Yuena's, so it must be at the God King level without a doubt!
Who could it be?
The Destruction God King and the Goddess of Life? The Evil God King and the Goodness Goddess? Or did the Asura God descend to the mortal realm himself?
This sudden turn of events completely disrupted Lin Hai's thoughts, including his subsequent plans!
He originally thought he would have at least a few years of buffer time.
After all, Bo Saixi Sea God Island had not yet sent back any news.
Even if his identity is exposed one day, the Divine Realm should send the Sea God first to test and entangle him, right?
Why are two god-kings descending right from the start?!
At this moment, the Sea God's Divine Sense within the dantian asked in confusion:
'What are you talking about? What is a high-level Dou Zong? And who is Gu Yuena?'
The Bodhi Ancient Tree decisively ignored its little brother's question and began to play dead.
When it recounted its experiences to the Sea God, it had embellished them slightly.
According to it, all the people it associates with are at least Dou Zun or Half-Saint level, and it has never explained the low-level realm of "Dou Zong" to the Sea God.
Lin Hai sighed inwardly and explained to the Sea God:
"Dou Zong is the power level of the world where Old Bodhi Tree originally lived."
Roughly speaking, a low-level Dou Zong is roughly equivalent to Second-Rank God or Ranked God in the Douluo Divine Realm, while a high-level Dou Zong necessarily corresponds to the combat power of a God King.
As for Gu Yuena's true identity, Lin Hai deliberately omitted it.
He believed that the news of the two god-kings descending to the mortal realm at the same time was enough to shock the Sea God so much that he would temporarily ignore any details.
Sure enough, upon hearing that a god-king level being had descended, the Sea God immediately forgot about Gu Yuena's question and exclaimed in shock:
'How is this possible?! Have they completely disregarded the rules they themselves established for the Divine Realm?'
"Ahem!" The Bodhi Ancient Tree coughed lightly at the opportune moment, its tone tinged with displeasure. "Are you questioning my judgment?"
"Brother Bodhi, you've misunderstood!" the Sea God quickly explained, his tone tinged with indignation. "I'm condemning their actions!"
'They set all the rules, constantly restricting this and constraining that, yet they themselves lead the way in breaking them!'
This is simply... double standards! Yes, double standards!
In truth, He was completely indifferent to this; He Himself was not some conventional deity!
These words, spoken with righteous indignation, were entirely driven by a strong will to survive.
In His view, this guy was no weaker than the Dragon God back then, even though his strength was suppressed when he came to the Douluo Continent.
Let alone a single Divine Will His, even the Venerable One himself would be unable to provoke Him!
"Old Bodhi Tree, do not investigate for now, lest you disturb them," Lin Hai instructed.
However, he did not explicitly state that this was to preserve the power of the Bodhi Ancient Tree.
Unless the Sea God chooses an heir from among his women, he will never be able to fully trust them.
"Brother Sea God, based on your understanding of the Five Great God Kings, who do you think are the two most likely to be in the lower realm?" he asked the Sea God.
The Sea God's Divine Will fell into a brief silence. After a moment, he answered somewhat uncertainly:
'It's hard to say for sure. But the fact that two god-kings acted simultaneously makes it more likely that they were the two couples.'
Among the Five Great God Kings, the Destruction God King and the Goddess of Life are husband and wife, as are the Evil God King and the Goodness Goddess.
However, the Destruction God King is the one among the Five Great God Kings who values rules the most.
Logically speaking, the possibility of him descending to the mortal realm is actually the smallest.
Lin Hai nodded; he was familiar with what the Sea God was saying: 'So, you believe the mortal realm is inhabited by Evil God King and Goodness Goddess?'
"I can only say that the possibility is relatively high." Sea God smiled wryly, then added:
'Those in the lower realms aren't necessarily husband and wife; other possibilities exist.'
Well, what a waste of time.
Lin Hai shook his head helplessly: 'Let's wait and see.'
' Old Bodhi Tree, keep a close eye on their movements. As long as they pose no threat to us, we don't need to worry about them for now.'
"It's up to you to decide," the Bodhi Ancient Tree replied calmly.
Its power is limited, and the amount restored cannot even make up for the loss caused by the two leakages of Primordial Force.
Lin Hai lets it use whatever he wants; he's too lazy to worry about it too much.
About ten miles away from Spirit City, on a mountaintop, two stunningly beautiful figures, one in white and one in green, stood quietly atop a tree.
A light screen made of pure energy floated in front of him, clearly displaying everything that was happening in the Spirit City square.
"Xiao Lu, are you sure the source of that aura you're looking for is right here in Spirit City?" a woman dressed in white, with a cool and pure demeanor, asked softly.
The woman beside him, dressed in a long emerald green dress and radiating a vibrant Life force, nodded solemnly:
"Sister Ashan, my senses are never wrong. Ever since I came to the lower realm, that feeling has become incredibly clear."
She extended her slender finger, pointed to the young man in purple robes on the light screen, and said with certainty:
"That power containing the peculiar laws of Life comes from him!"
The two are none other than the Goodness Goddess and the Goddess of Life.
The person the Goddess of Life pointed to was none other than Lin Hai!
This story begins on the day Lin Hai killed Yu Yunting, causing the Primordial Force to leak out and alarm the Divine Realm.
The Goddess of Life noticed the emergence of a power in the lower realm that was related to the laws of Life but at a higher level, and believed it could help her break through her long-standing bottleneck.
She requested the help of the Destruction God King to distract the Asura God and the Evil God King so that she could quietly descend to the mortal realm to investigate.
However, the Destruction God King, for his own selfish reasons, did not agree.
The Goddess of Life was deeply disappointed and saddened by this, and almost gave up the idea of descending to the mortal realm.
Unexpectedly, not long after, the Evil God King took the initiative to invite the Asura God and the Destruction God King to discuss important matters, which conveniently left a gap in the management of the central authority of the Divine Realm.
Such a golden opportunity could not be missed by the Goddess of Life. She immediately set off for the teleportation portal leading to the human world.
And there, she unexpectedly encountered a Goodness Goddess was also preparing to secretly descend to the mortal realm.
Unable to bear the cold and boredom of the Divine Realm, one seeks to find the source of the Slaughter Law in the mortal world to relieve his boredom.
The other intends to challenge the rules and break the balance of life and death, all in order to have a child of his own.
