Rewards for the Three Continents Unveiled! I Want to See the Look on the High and Mighty Pope's Face Beneath Our Cannons (1 / 2)

Before the great powers of the Douluo Continent could fully absorb their wild joy, the golden radiance scattered across the heavens abruptly contracted!

The cold, lofty broadcast from the sky screen once again resounded throughout the universe, its tone even more powerful and domineering than before. Like the peal of a mighty bell, it sent ripples through thousands of miles of empty sky:

[Blessing for second place: Sun Moon Continent!]

[Heavenly Dao reward: The plane's spiritual energy and soul power concentration permanently increased by 30%!]

[Additional grants: Five Level 9 rare metal veins and one divine-grade rare mineral vein generated within the earth! All soul engineers across the continent gain a 10% increase in their comprehension of soul guidance formations!]

Boom—!

Before the announcement had finished, an emerald-gold pillar of light several times thicker than the one that had pierced the Douluo Continent rose from nowhere. Bearing enough power to topple mountains and overturn seas, it slammed down upon the Sun Moon Continent on the far side of the ocean!

In that instant, the Sun Moon Empire's vast mountains and rivers shook violently!

Millions of shafts of celestial light erupted from deep mountains, great marshes, ancient forests, and buried mineral deposits!

Five immense mineral veins hidden deep within the crust surged upward like dragons and serpents awakening, transforming in the blink of an eye into Level 9 rare metal veins that radiated an ancient rhythm;

At the very heart of the Sun Moon Empire's dragon vein, a God-Level Ore Vein exuding sacred pressure condensed out of thin air!

That was not all. Within the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, countless elite soul engineers wrestling with difficult problems felt a boom deep inside their minds. The once obscure and incomprehensible Level 9 soul guidance formations suddenly became clear, as though enlightenment had been poured straight into their heads!

"I understand! The deadlock in the Level 9 core formation that trapped me for thirty years has finally broken!"

"Hahahaha! Heaven favors me! So this is the optimal engraving structure for the Level 9 Fixed Soul Guidance Cannon!"

Wild joy and excitement swept across the entire Sun Moon Empire.

Inside the Sun Moon Empire's imperial palace, the emperor smashed the glazed cup in his hand and rose from his dragon throne, abandoning all decorum. His face flushed crimson with excitement as he roared in delight:

"Excellent! What a Heavenly Dao Blessing!"

"Thirty percent more spiritual energy! Six priceless mineral veins! And another ten percent in formation comprehension!"

He swept his sleeve fiercely, unrestrained ambition and imperial might blazing in his eyes:

"With heaven's aid, what could stop the Sun Moon Empire's soul-guided iron cavalry from flattening everything! This so-called native continent, these traditional soul masters—before the Soul Tool Legions favored by the Heavenly Dao, they are nothing but washed-up clay chickens and straw dogs!"

Yet when that mighty proclamation reverberating between heaven and earth reached the Douluo Continent, the atmosphere among the great powers, still immersed in universal celebration, abruptly froze.

Many leaders who had just been stroking their beards and laughing heartily found their smiles frozen stiff, their expressions turning ugly.

Thirty percent more spiritual energy! Five Level 9 mineral veins! And even a God-Level Ore Vein!

Such a magnificent reward utterly trounced the "mere ten percent" the Douluo Continent had just received in every respect!

Within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Fengzhi's fingers whitened slightly around his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Scepter. Watching the thick emerald-gold radiance on the sky screen, profound wariness and gravity flickered in his eyes:

"A thirty-percent increase in soul power concentration... and a mineral vein capable of producing divine-grade soul tools... Just what is the origin of this Sun Moon Continent?"

Beside him, Sword Douluo Chen Xin snorted coldly. The Sword Intent surrounding him grew faintly unsettled, his voice cold and arrogant:

"Nothing more than deviants who waste their minds on ingenious tricks and frivolous contraptions. For soul masters, only their own soul power and martial souls constitute the true path! Relying on those lumps of iron will never bring them into the halls of greatness."

Ning Fengzhi sighed inwardly. Though unwilling to admit it aloud, as the magnate overseeing one of the Upper Three Sects' financial empires, he knew all too well what an explosive increase in resources and technology meant.

Yet without sparing a thought for the Douluo Continent's bitterness and self-delusion, the final blessing broadcast, belonging to first place, rang throughout the universe!

Only now did every living being across the entire plane finally understand what it meant to be as far apart as heaven and earth!

[Blessing for first place: Longcang Continent!]

[Heavenly Dao reward: Infusion of the 'Plane Origin Fruit'! Spiritual energy and divine power concentration throughout Longcang permanently increased by 200%. Spiritual energy turns to mist, nourishing all things!]

[Additional grants: The plane's golden dragon of fortune bestows its blessing. All living beings across the continent gain greatly extended lifespans, all illnesses vanish, and comprehension doubles!]

[Supreme special reward: Descent of the 'Origin Laws of Level 13 Divine-Grade Soul Guidance Formations'! Twelve divine-grade mineral veins and one chaos ancestral vein granted!]

Rumble—!

The instant the sky screen finished its announcement, the river of stars high above seemed to collapse completely!

A beam of violet-gold divine radiance wide enough to obscure half the sky carried indescribable power from the Plane Origin. Like the celestial river plunging from the highest heavens, it thundered into the Longcang Continent!

In that moment, the land of the entire Longcang Continent cheered, and all things roared!

The spiritual energy, already so dense it resembled liquid, instantly condensed under the pressure of that immense energy into visibly shimmering clouds of five-colored light. Several thousand-zhang golden dragon phantoms formed from pure Plane Fortune raised their heads and roared amid the high clouds, their cries shaking the eight wildernesses!

Within the Purple-Gold Hall in the Longcang Imperial Capital.

Ye Canghai, who had been leisurely drinking tea on his dragon throne, trembled slightly.

An utterly pure surge of the Plane Origin's power flowed directly into his body through the sky screen. His cultivation, already at the threshold of Supreme God King, gave a crisp crack as its shackles quietly loosened!

"This... feedback from the Plane Origin?"

Ye Canghai set down his teacup. Feeling the divine power within him surge like churning rivers and overturned seas, a rare flicker of surprise and pleasure crossed his eyes.

"To think this golden ranking on the sky screen that appeared out of nowhere would actually deliver so much substance."

Below him in the hall, the Longcang Empire's leading ministers and supreme experts underwent transformations that remade them from the inside out!

Boom!

At the lower end of the hall, dazzling golden light erupted around the Golden Crocodile King. His golden crocodile scales shifted and interlocked with sharp cracks, and an ancient, immense pressure swept through the hall like towering storm waves.

The Level 98 bottleneck that had trapped him for decades after he assumed human form shattered, forcibly tearing open a path into the ranks of Level 99 Peerless Douluos!

The Golden Crocodile King clenched his sandbag-sized iron fists. Feeling the terrifying power churning within him like overturned seas, he threw back his head and laughed with unrestrained exhilaration:

"Hahahaha! Now that feels good! I've broken through to Level 99! Your Majesty, this sky screen certainly knows quality—it's giving us nothing but the real thing!"

Not far away, blue-gold light surged violently around the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King as well. His formidable blood vitality climbed steadily, and his massive body showed faint signs of transforming into a higher, divine-grade physique.

The Longcang Empire's Great Sage caught a violet-gold orb of laws drifting down from the sky with trembling hands. Unable to contain his excitement, he wept freely:

"The origin laws of Level 13 divine-grade soul guidance formations! Heavens... the final deadlock in the divine-grade warship's core has broken! Your Majesty, our super warships can operate at full power at any moment!"

It was not only the supreme experts. The Longcang Continent's hundreds of millions of commoners, soul masters, and even the soul beasts moving through its streets and alleys all underwent tremendous transformations beneath the baptism of that boundless violet-gold divine radiance.

Withered trees found spring again, and every illness vanished! Countless soul masters rose several levels in succession, breaking through as easily as drinking water!

In the sky, after absorbing the Heavenly Dao's coating, the God-Level Soul Guidance Battleship that blotted out the sun gained deeper, colder runes across its hull. Its world-destroying pressure grew several times stronger than before!

Resting his chin on one hand, Ye Canghai felt the magnificent fortune of the entire continent flourishing. The curve of his lips grew increasingly amused:

"Originally, I only wanted to curl up on a back and get some peaceful sleep, while helping these youngsters along... Yet not only did I end up creating a divine-grade civilization, now even the Heavenly Dao is sending me lavish gifts."

He reclined against his dragon throne, his unfathomable gaze seeming to pierce the void and settle upon the Douluo Continent, then caught up in wild joy and inflated confidence.

Through his reverse perception of the sky screen, he naturally caught the arrogant and ignorant attitudes of Bibi Dong, Yu Xiaogang, Tang Xiao, and the others with perfect clarity.

"Flying iron boxes with no means of attack? Fat meat waiting to be carved up?"

Murmuring some of the "expert opinions" coming from the Douluo Continent, Ye Canghai could not help chuckling:

"Trying to understand era-transcending divine-grade battleships with the mindset of cold weapons and individual soul skills... Spirit Hall and these natives of the Douluo Continent really do have consistently predictable minds."

The Golden Crocodile King stepped forward, cupped his fists, and volunteered in his rough voice:

"Your Majesty! The sky screen's Two-World Passage will open soon! Just now, I sensed those frogs at the bottom of the well on the Douluo Continent criticizing our Longcang Continent. Shall I lead a battleship over and broaden their horizons?"

Ye Canghai waved a hand, leisurely sipped his tea, and replied calmly:

"What's the hurry?"

"They've only just received their third-place reward and think they're invincible. Attacking now would be no fun at all."

A mischievous gleam flashed through Ye Canghai's eyes:

"Since they think we're a fragrant slab of fat meat, let them keep thinking that."

"When the two worlds truly meet... I want to see what a splendid expression that high and mighty Pope will wear when Spirit Hall's soul master legion charges straight beneath our battleships' main cannons."
