Sun Moon Continent, Demon Forest.
This place was a forbidden zone for life, a paradise for the dead.
Skulls piled into mountains, their hollow eye sockets staring at the gray, overcast sky.
Desiccated corpses lay scattered across the ground, drained of all essence by some force and left with nothing but withered husks.
The soil beneath his feet was an eerie dark red, sticky and slick. Looking closely, it was actually formed from countless scraps of rotting human skin and flesh.
Lu Ming stood atop a mountain of corpses, his brows slightly furrowed.
His white robes were spotless, utterly out of place amid this filthy vision of hell.
"Evil Emperor, the totem of the Sun Moon Empire, actually ate the humans of the Sun Moon Continent."
Not far away, a massive figure emerged.
It resembled an enormous eyeball covered in crimson veins. Beneath it writhed octopus-like tentacles, which were currently clutching severed limbs and feeding them into a gaping bloody maw at its crown.
It was the ruler of Demon Forest, the faith totem of the Sun Moon Empire—the Evil Eye Tyrant Master, respectfully known to the world as the "Evil Emperor."
Hearing Lu Ming's voice, the Evil Emperor's movements abruptly froze.
Within its enormous single eye, its blood-red pupil suddenly contracted.
How was that possible?!
Someone had appeared here, yet it had not sensed a thing!
Its Divine Sense instantly swept across a thousand miles, yet it could not discover when or how this person had appeared.
The Evil Emperor slowly turned its massive head toward the source of the voice.
With just one glance, its ferocious will, condensed from countless vengeful souls, was utterly crushed.
The newcomer stood there quietly. His figure was not particularly imposing, yet to the Evil Emperor, he felt more vast than heaven and earth themselves.
Wisps of pale blue radiance swirled around him, carrying the supreme aura of Life Origin Power. That was not Soul Power, but an existence on a higher level.
Simply meeting his gaze made the Evil Emperor feel as though its very soul were trembling.
It was an absolute suppression originating from the deepest level of life itself.
Terrifying!
Boundless terror instantly seized the Evil Emperor's mind.
It wanted to flee, but its body would not obey. It could not even move a single tentacle.
It wanted to beg for mercy, but beneath that immeasurable pressure, it could not even utter a single syllable.
"Noisy."
Lu Ming seemed somewhat impatient and casually waved his hand forward.
A blade of Nine-Colored Blue Silver Grass appeared out of thin air.
The Evil Emperor's enormous eye reflected that slowly drifting leaf, its pupil filled with despair.
The Blue Silver Grass leaf lightly swept past.
The Evil Eye Tyrant Master's body, along with its soul, was completely annihilated without a sound.
From that day onward, there was no more Evil Emperor in this forest.
Lu Ming withdrew his hand and gazed toward the horizon, a distant look appearing in his eyes.
He was a transmigrator.
Tens of thousands of years ago, he had arrived in this world known as the Douluo Continent.
His Martial Soul was the Blue Silver Grass that the world considered the most useless.
But he had a secret: he could live forever, eternal and undying.
The years flowed on, and ten thousand years passed in the blink of an eye.
He had witnessed far too much.
Deep within the Star Dou Great Forest, he had once encountered the severely wounded Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena and used Life Origin Power to heal her injuries.
In the end, that proud ruler of the Dragon Clan gave her heart to him.
He had also personally witnessed a woman wielding a Holy Sword ignite her Divine Fire amid boundless radiance and become the Angel God.
He had also seen a man holding a trident receive the worship of countless people upon the sea, creating the position of Sea God.
He traveled the continent, and whenever the mood struck him, he casually took in a few disciples.
Those disciples later all became renowned figures across the continent.
And Lu Ming himself, tempered by tens of thousands of years, had long since become incomparable to his former self.
His original Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul had long evolved into the supreme Nine-Colored Blue Silver Grass. Its level of life had already surpassed that of the former Dragon God.
His strength had also long surpassed the realm of those so-called God Kings in the God Realm.
To him, there were no longer any opponents in the world. A long life sometimes also meant long-lasting boredom.
Just then.
Rumble!
An immense, boundless boom exploded above the entire world.
Whether on the Douluo Continent or the Sun Moon Continent, every living being heard it.
Immediately afterward, an indescribably dazzling golden light tore through the sky.
Above the firmament, an enormous golden Sky Screen slowly unfolded. It was boundless in size, covering every corner of both continents.
No matter where one stood, so long as one looked up, one could clearly see the scene upon the Sky Screen.
A supreme majesty beyond even the gods emanated from the Sky Screen, filling every Soul Master and even every Deity with awe.
Across the Douluo Continent and the Sun Moon Continent, countless people stopped what they were doing and stared up at the sky in shock.
Then, lines of Golden Characters formed from Great Dao runes appeared upon the Sky Screen.
[Myriad Realms Inventory: Douluo Rankings!] [All those who make the Ranking List shall receive rewards!] [This inventory—Douluo Top Ten Treasures Ranking!]
At the same time.
Outside Jialing Pass, the Heaven Dou Empire's military camp.
Within the central command tent, the atmosphere was at its peak.
"Victory! We will surely win!"
"Lord Tang San has inherited godhood and is invincible in this age!"
"Even Angel God Qian Renxue, the pillar of the Spirit Hall Empire, was no match for Lord Tang San. What does Bibi Dong amount to?"
The people of Shrek and the upper ranks of the Heaven Dou Empire had gathered together, celebrating the victory soon to come.
Tang San sat in the central seat of honor, smiling faintly.
He had just defeated Qian Renxue. His Divine Might now shook the world, and his entire bearing had undergone an earth-shaking transformation. Every gesture carried the majesty of a Deity.
In his eyes, destroying the Spirit Hall Empire would take no more than a matter of days.
At his side, Yu Xiaogang held a cup of tea, his expression lofty and proud, fully displaying the bearing of a "master."
His eyes were filled with pride and self-satisfaction.
Look, this is the disciple I raised—a true God!
My theories were completely correct!
Just as everyone's emotions ran high, that immense voice and the golden light piercing heaven and earth descended Above Jialing Pass as well.
The celebrations within the command tent came to an abrupt halt.
Everyone, including Tang San with his Dual God Positions, rushed out of the tent and looked up at the sky.
When he clearly saw the Golden Characters on the Sky Screen, even Tang San's pupils abruptly contracted.
"An inventory of all kinds of Douluo rankings? What kind of heaven-reaching method is this?"
He could sense that the power contained behind this Sky Screen far surpassed him, even with his Dual God Positions. It was perhaps even stronger than any God King he knew.
"Wow! There are rewards for making the list!"
A crisp, pleasant voice rang out. Tiny stars sparkled in Ning Rongrong's beautiful eyes.
She gently swayed her body, and the pair of straight, slender jade legs beneath her skirt were especially eye-catching.
