Heavenly Screen

Biodata

Background / History

The Heavenly Screen descended over Douluo Continent as Yu Xiaogang neared godhood in a Martial Soul Hall training ground. Its arrival was preceded by a buzzing sensation heard in every person's mind; it then manifested as a pitch-black screen visible from anywhere on the continent. 1

It announced that it had detected parallel worlds and would commence a “dual Douluo comparison.” It transmitted foundational information about the parallel world directly into the audience's minds before selecting its first comparison subjects: Dark World Master Yu Xiaogang and White World Dragon God Douluo Yu Xiaogang. 1

The Screen subsequently began broadcasting the lives and histories of its selected subjects, exposing events ranging from Yu Xiaogang's childhood martial soul awakening to major sect conflicts, divine opportunities, private family histories, and later travels beyond Douluo Continent, including events on Sea God Island and the Sun Moon Continent. 3 8 437 449 487 Its later footage follows Yu Xiaogang and his companions through Silver Moon City and into the Spirit Sea Mountain Range. 523 544 551
