Ren Tao did not sleep well that night.
He kept feeling as though a pair of eyes were gazing down from the sky, silently watching him.
It involuntarily reminded him of a terrifying science-fiction film: Omniscience.
But in the Douluo World, the "Omniscience system" was not the only thing conducting round-the-clock surveillance. There was also the unreachable Divine Realm, whose gods monitored every Soul Beast and human on the Douluo Continent, apart from those in a handful of hidden realms.
