Divine Hierarchy
| Rank / Classification | Documented Examples | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Third-rank god | Dragon God’s former parasite | Dugu Feng estimates that the parasite originally possessed third-rank divine strength and nearly reached the second-rank threshold 33. |
| Second-class god | Inheritor of only one of Vulcan’s positions | Vulcan states that inheriting either Volcanoes or Forging alone would reduce his successor’s divine power to this rank 42. |
| First-class god / High God | God of Forging and Volcanoes | The combined inheritance is a first-class position, though it remains below a God King 61 77. |
| God King | Asura God | Dugu Feng seeks the Asura inheritance because its standing exceeds that of his existing forging inheritance 34 77. |
- A first-level god can bring two people into the Divine Realm upon ascending 54 74.
- The Dragon God stood above the Divine Realm Committee during the earlier Divine Realm’s flourishing era 70.
Background / History
The War of the Gods devastated the earlier Divine Realm and killed countless deities. Vulcan faced the berserk Dragon God, endured three attacks, and suffered the destruction of his divine body and severe damage to his godhood. His intended resurrection failed because the Dragon God’s power had also damaged his Volcano Heart 69 70.
Vulcan entrusted his inheritance to the Forging Hammer and sent it to Douluo Star. The shattered Volcano Heart’s energy formed volcanoes throughout the world, while the hammer preserved a path for a mortal successor to inherit his two divine positions 43 69.
Abilities & Skills
Divine Power and Laws
- Distinct energy system: Divine power and Soul Power are explicitly described as different systems. Qian Daoliu’s access to part of the Angel God’s power makes him more dangerous than an ordinary level-99 Titled Douluo 49.
- Elemental authority: The Volcano God controls fire and earth; the God of Forging controls laws including metal and gravity 43.
- World-imposed restrictions: Gods descending to Douluo Star have their strength restricted. Their maximum physical force there is stated to be one million jin, though divine power—not physical strength alone—determines their combat capabilities 46.
Divine Inheritance
- Divine trials follow the deity’s requirements rather than a universal fixed number of assessments 43.
- A successful candidate can inherit the deity’s divine position 43.
- Inheritances can transmit knowledge, grant divine skills, and progressively unlock an associated artifact 44 46 69.
Resurrection
- The Volcano God can theoretically resurrect within a volcano while an intact Volcano Heart remains 69.
- Establishing the heart within a single volcano carries risks and prevents access to the Volcano God’s full divine power 70.
- This safeguard is not absolute: Vulcan’s heart ultimately shattered after damage inflicted by the Dragon God prevented its recovery 69.
Divine Artifact Creation
- A Noble Phantasm can become a quasi-divine artifact through divine inscriptions, then become a true divine artifact through nourishment with divine power 65.
- Only a second-level god or higher can provide the necessary nourishment 65.
- A true divine artifact is closely bound to a High God’s Divine Core; its consciousness extends the god’s own consciousness 77.
- A Spirit Treasure instead develops an independent consciousness and can become a Companion Divine Artifact faster than an ordinary quasi-divine artifact 77.
Vulcan’s Divine Trials
Vulcan’s inheritance contains six trials and allows Dugu Feng to pursue both the Volcano and Forging positions 42.
| Trial | Requirement / Completion | Documented Rewards |
|---|---|---|
| First | Endure volcanic heat in a mortal body and reach the Forging Hammer 42. | 10% divine-position affinity; hammer unlocked to 10% power 42. |
| Second | Reach Soul Douluo within three years; completed after defeating the Poison Fiend Wyvern 42 44. | Affinity reaches 35%; one-third of Vulcan’s forging wisdom; hammer unlocked to 30% 44. |
| Third | Passed upon reaching Titled Douluo 46. | Additional forging knowledge; affinity and hammer power reach 50% 46. |
| Fourth | Lift the 800,000-jin Forging Hammer overhead using personal strength and Soul Power 46 65. | Affinity reaches 80%; hammer unlocked to 60%; authority to wield it 65. |
| Fifth | Forge a Noble Phantasm; completed with the Snake Lance Scepter 65 69. | Affinity and hammer power reach 90%; Meteor Volcano Hammer Technique 69. |
| Sixth | Condense the Volcano Heart 69. | Not completed in the supplied chapters; Dugu Feng postpones it until Limit Titled Douluo 70. |
Notable Divine Artifacts
- Forging Hammer — Vulcan’s surviving inheritance vessel, formed from the laws of gold and gravity. Its weight and handling depend on recognition and mastery of gravity 42 44.
- Volcano Spear — Triggers volcanic eruptions and attacks with their power. It requires lengthy charging but can release force comparable to a first-level god’s full-strength strike 65.
- Emerald Gold Sword — Can cut through anything and is specifically used to carve divine inscriptions into weapons 65.
- Invisibility Jewel — Forged by Vulcan. Its damaged state conceals aura; its complete state can also conceal the user’s body 59.
- Volcano Treasure Cauldron — Vulcan gave this near-quasi-divine Spirit Treasure to the Fire God, who refined it into the quasi-divine Fire God Cauldron 76.
