Chapter 1 Sinking in the Sea for 20,000 Years, About to Become a God, You Exposed Me?
Douluo Calendar Year XXX.
Tang San's Nine Trials as Sea God are underway.
The Endless Sea, the bottom of the abyss.
This is the deepest trench on Douluo Star, where sunlight, sound, and life are all isolated.
The terrifying water pressure, enough to instantly crush a Title Douluo into dust, forms an absolute forbidden zone here.
In this deathly darkness where even light cannot reach, an ancient, dark bronze coffin silently floats.
The coffin is carved with the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, and plants, as if the entire universe is etched upon it.
It exudes a terrifying aura that suppresses all heavens and buries eternity.
Even the omnipresent pressure of the deep sea is distorted and repelled by an invisible force when it approaches within three feet of it.
Inside the coffin is another world.
Wei Yuan's consciousness has been awakened for countless years.
He "looked" at his semi-transparent divine soul body, feeling the divine position within him that was already 99% complete, just one step away from complete perfection. A cold smile curled at the corner of his lips.
"Twenty thousand years..."
A sigh echoed in the confined space, carrying endless vicissitudes and deep-seated hatred.
Twenty thousand years ago, he and Poseidon were both top-tier level 99 Limit Douluo on the continent.
Together, they set their sights on the vast ocean, vying for the endless power of faith, hoping to take the final step and ascend to godhood.
Wei Yuan had thought it was a fair competition, but unexpectedly, that hypocrite Poseidon used the most despicable scheme to betray him.
When he and a 990,000-year-old sea spirit beast were both exhausted, Poseidon struck ruthlessly, waiting for the opportune moment, shattering his divine soul and destroying his physical body.
If not for the awakening of his second martial soul, [Burial Sky Coffin], which he had never shown to anyone before, on the verge of death.
Having concealed his last wisp of soul within it, he had long since vanished from the world.
Ironically, Poseidon, believing him dead and extinct, even "mercifully" sealed this strange, "ownerless" coffin here after becoming a god, as a tombstone for his "old friend."
Little did he know, this Coffin of Burial was the very source of Wei Yuan's life!
After ten thousand years of silence, Wei Yuan not only did not perish, but instead rebuilt his divine soul within the coffin.
With immense perseverance and wisdom, he forged a path entirely different from Poseidon's—creating his own godhood!
Now, his [Burial of Heaven Godhood] is nearing completion, a half-step god!
"Poseidon, you despicable villain… The day I break through to godhood and emerge from this coffin will be the day your Seagod Island lineage is severed!"
Wei Yuan's eyes blazed with murderous intent, and the entire Coffin of Burial trembled slightly from his emotions.
However, just as he prepared to continue his assault on the final barrier to godhood…
A vast, solemn, and irresistible will descended upon the entire Douluo Star without warning!
Meanwhile, on the Douluo Continent, in Wuhun City, on Seagod Island, in the Star Dou Great Forest, and in the Heaven Dou Empire at Shrek Academy, everyone—from Soul Masters cultivating in the fields to farmers working in the earth, and even Soul Beasts lurking deep within the forest—raised their heads in astonishment.
Above them, an endless golden light curtain unfolded like a divine miracle, enveloping the entire sky.
Ancient characters flowed slowly across the light curtain, eventually coalescing into a line of words that shook the very souls of everyone present:
[A Review of the Heavenly Curtain of All Realms—Douluo Chapter]
"What is this?!"
"A miracle! It's a miracle!"
Countless mortals knelt in worship, bowing their heads fervently.
Meanwhile, the Soul Master world was engulfed in a monstrous upheaval.
On Seagod Island, before the Seagod's Palace, High Priestess Poseidon, dressed in a red dress, her exquisite face etched with astonishment and devotion.
She could sense that the level of this will was even far above that of the Sea God!
"Welcome the divine decree!"
She led the Seven Sacred Pillar Douluos, kneeling respectfully on one knee.
Spirit Hall, Hall of Offerings.
Qian Daoliu suddenly awoke from his seclusion, took a step forward, and looked up at the sky, his golden eyes filled with solemnity and incomprehension.
"A will beyond the gods? The myriad realms… could it be that the world we know is not the whole picture?"
At Shrek Academy, the Grandmaster, who was instructing Tang San and the others in cultivation, suddenly looked up, his eyes behind his glasses flashing with wisdom and inquiry.
"A review? What is it reviewing?"
Under the gaze of billions of beings across Douluo Star, the golden characters on the sky changed again.
[This issue's review: Two gods who created their own godhood 20,000 years ago in Douluo!]
The moment the words fell, the entire high-ranking members of the Soul Master world erupted in uproar!
10,000 years ago?
Created their own godhood?
'Everyone' knew that only the Sea God and the Angel God had become gods and left behind their godhood 10,000 years ago!
Could it be… that the celestial curtain is about to recount the ascension stories of these two supreme gods?
In an instant, Poseidon and Qian Daoliu were both on edge.
This concerned the very foundation of their faith and heritage!
The celestial curtain shone brightly, the images shifting, first revealing a vast blue ocean.
A valiant man, wielding a trident, battled terrifying sea spirit beasts amidst raging waves, gathering faith and solidifying his divine position.
It was none other than the Sea God, Poseidon!
Upon seeing this, Poseidon's face broke into an incredibly proud and devout smile:
"The Sea God is wise and mighty, single-handedly pacifying the sea to achieve his supreme divine position!"
However, beside the image of the Sea God Poseidon, a line of small characters slowly emerged, clearly presented before everyone's eyes.
[Sea God, Poseidon. One of the two peerless geniuses of Douluo Continent twenty thousand years ago, he became a god by absorbing the power of faith from ocean creatures. His path to godhood is closely related to another genius, 'Wei Yuan'.]
"Wei Yuan?"
This unfamiliar name stunned everyone.
Poseidon's smile froze on her face, her brows furrowing:
"Who is Wei Yuan?
A peerless genius who was on par with the Sea God twenty thousand years ago?
Why have I never seen this name in any of the Sea God Island's records?"
Qian Daoliu's pupils also contracted, his mind churning:
"Wei Yuan?
Twenty thousand years ago, weren't only our ancestors and the Sea God gods?
Where did this Wei Yuan come from?"
Before they could ponder further, the next line of text on the screen struck everyone's hearts like a thunderbolt!
[Behind the Sea God's path to godhood lies a name buried for ten thousand years—Wei Yuan.]
[Review begins—Sea God Poseidon, a despicable false god who stole faith and betrayed his dearest friend!]
Boom—!!!
The entire Sea God Island trembled violently, as if unable to bear this "treasonous" assessment.
Poseidon abruptly stood up, her beautiful face flushed crimson with extreme rage. Pointing at the sky, she shrieked,
"Nonsense!"
"What are you? How dare you slander the supreme Sea God!"
"The Sea God is upright and honorable, his deeds unparalleled throughout history. How could he possibly do such a despicable thing?!"
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!!!"
At this moment, the faith in the Sea God began to crumble.
