Douluo Continent: The Twin Sons of the Styx River, Shaking the World and Destroying the Heavens

Chapter 170 The Gate from Ten Thousand Years Ago
Wang Yiheng frowned and said in a deep voice, "Nonsense! How could I not know about such a commotion?" He stood up abruptly, his armor making a dull thud. "Immediately send someone to report this matter to His Majesty with urgent permission, and send a small team with me to the front lines to investigate the situation!"

Having said that, he strode out, his gaze sharp as a hawk, fixed on the space-time portal in the distance that emitted an eerie blue light, his soul power surging unconsciously around him.

Meanwhile, Zhen Xuanji Douluo from the Star Luo Empire also arrived, and the two sides stared at each other with cold eyes.

At the same time, Zhen Xuanji Douluo, who was stationed on the border of the Star Luo Empire, had also led his troops to the scene.

Two sharp, knife-like gazes met in mid-air. Wang Yiheng and Xuanji Douluo faced each other from afar, their eyes revealing undisguised vigilance and coldness.

On one side was the leader of the Evil Lord Soul Master Corps of the Sun Moon Empire, and on the other side was the border guard of the Star Luo Empire. At this moment, due to this mysterious space-time gate, the top combat forces of the two countries were facing off at the edge of the rift valley. The air was filled with a tense atmosphere of impending conflict, and neither side dared to make any rash moves. Only the blue energy beneath the giant gate continued to flow slowly and steadily.

Xuanji Douluo's soul power fluctuated slightly, and his voice, as cold as ice, lashed out at the other side: "Wang Yiheng, this is the border of Xingluo. Your Evil Monarch Soul Master Group has trespassed. Do you intend to use this strange disturbance to provoke a war between the two countries?"

Wang Yiheng's gaze was sharp as he stared directly at Zhen Xuanji without backing down: "Xuanji, if I'm not mistaken, this is the border crossing between our Sun Moon Empire and your Star Luo Empire. We haven't actually entered the Star Luo Empire. We've only come to investigate this strange gate that suddenly appeared. On the contrary, you've brought people closer. Could it be that you intend to use this gate as an excuse to take another step towards the border of our Sun Moon Empire?"

"you."

Meanwhile, in the Eternal Holy City.

Because of the appearance of the time portal, a violent tremor, like a surging tide, has swept across the entire Douluo Continent, as if the whole world is trembling.

This immense power caused a stir in every corner of the Douluo Continent, shaking everyone to their core. Soon, everyone learned of this astonishing event, and discussions abounded, with people speculating about the secrets hidden behind this mysterious gate.

However, in Huo Yun'er's residence, the person who was still fast asleep was suddenly awakened by the tremor.

Everyone else is affected, but Xiaodie is not. It will affect those who possess the [End Cocoon Ability], [Imaginary Tree Authority], [Law Destiny], and [Commander].

Of course, that's impossible. Right now, unless you encounter someone at the [Commander] level, no one can really beat Xia Die.

It is completely controllable [gravity], so it can still be affected by this force.

After things calmed down, Huo Yun'er naturally saw the butterfly floating in mid-air. Gazing at the fluttering phantom, she was overwhelmed with a bittersweet feeling of "this love can only be cherished in memory" and an overwhelming joy of reunion, and tears of excitement welled up in her eyes.

He hugged Xia Die directly, and Xia Die did not resist, because he had not explained to his mother beforehand, which made her worry for so long.

"elder sister."

However, Polysia was also given over.

Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen also consciously walked away, as it was none of their business now.

Meanwhile, inside the Sun and Moon Empire's Hall of Worship.

Meanwhile, the atmosphere inside the Sun and Moon Empire's Hall of Worship was somber.

Three figures stood where shadow and candlelight intertwined, discussing in hushed tones the strange gate, constructed from a mysterious foundation stone, that stretched across the border between the two kingdoms of Sun and Moon and Star and Luo.

Kong Deming's eyes were sharp as he said in a deep voice, "Have you all seen the message Wang Yiheng sent? It's about that [gateway] that stands across the border of my Sun Moon Empire."

Jing Hongchen nodded slightly, his expression solemn, and said, "What Elder Kong said is absolutely right. The most urgent task is to immediately block the news and at the same time appease the people, so as not to let panic spread within the empire."

Kong Deming nodded solemnly, his expression grave. "The blockade and appeasement arrangements have already begun. But more important is to find out where this strange [gate] came from and what secrets it holds."

Kong Deming lightly tapped the soul tool in his palm with his fingertips, and a dark blue light suddenly burst forth. In an instant, the phantom of the mysterious [Gate] that stretched across the border between the sun and moon and the stars appeared in mid-air, and the complex patterns constructed from the mysterious [Foundation Stone] were clearly visible. Although it was a three-dimensional projection, it exuded a heart-palpitating sense of realism.

Ye Yulin stared intently at the projection, her pupils trembling violently, her face filled with horror: "The things on this are completely unrecognizable, they are all strange characters I've never heard of before!"

Kong Deming frowned, his voice tinged with worry: "This strange object has now attracted the attention of the entire Douluo Continent. The situation is unpredictable, and no one knows what changes will occur next."

We haven't come to any conclusions here, so let's go take a look.

"Yes, Master Kong."

Meanwhile, Xia Die was naturally aware of everything that was happening at the border between the sun and the moon.

After comforting her mother, Huo Yun'er, she asked, "Sister Meng, what else happened during the year I was asleep?"

Xiao Hongchen snorted, his tone full of disdain: "You mean this, A-Die? Those people from Shrek Academy don't seem to be doing anything worthwhile."

Then, Xiao Hongchen recounted all his experiences at Shrek Academy to Xia Die in detail. Xia Die smiled slightly: "Still the same as always, always stirring up trouble."

Xiao Hongchen suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, Adie, what exactly is it that caused such a commotion this time?"

Xia Die gently raised her delicate hand, her fingertips lightly touching the air like dots of ink. In an instant, the scene of the border between the Sun Moon Empire and the Star Luo Empire appeared before her eyes. Above a horizontal ditch, a mysterious semi-circular gate stood prominently, radiating a deep and strange light.

“This is…” Xiao Hongchen stared intently at the semi-circular door, his tone full of surprise and doubt.

Xia Die nodded slightly, her gaze fixed on the image in the void: "It is this very thing that is the root cause of this tremor in the Douluo Continent."

What Xiaodie presents is not an ordinary projection, but a complete representation of a real situation in a specific scene in a concrete form.

Xia Die looked at the words above and examined them carefully.

These characters are beyond the comprehension of ordinary people; they are special symbols born after time and space have undergone endless erosion and distortion.

The gate before us should more accurately be called a "boundary marker"—it is a passage created by the distortion of spacetime, connecting to a completely different other world.

Xia Die began to attempt to interpret it.

It seems as if you have crossed the gates of millennia and descended upon the mortal realm. The place where you stand draws forth a landscape spanning millennia.

Xiao Hongchen asked softly, "Adie, what are you thinking about?"

Xia Die looked up, her gaze still fixed on the text above: "I'm trying to decipher these words."

Xiao Hongchen's expression changed drastically, a hint of shock flashing in his eyes. He then asked urgently, "Adie, have you found anything?"

Xia Die nodded slightly and slowly explained: "The first sentence: Using time and space as the contract, this thoroughfare is built by distorting all things; using the foundation stone as the bone, the profound mystery is built into the system. This is no ordinary thing, but the [boundary marker] you see, which carries multidimensional rifts and connects the two worlds of reality and illusion."

Xiao Hongchen looked puzzled and pressed for an answer: "What exactly does that mean?"

Despite racking my brains, I still couldn't quite grasp its deeper meaning.

After a moment of contemplation, Xia Die slowly spoke: "In other words, this gate is called the [Boundary Marker], and the text on it has been eroded, distorted, and reassembled over time to form its current form. It is like a [Gateway Between Worlds], a crucial hub connecting another world. Moreover, it is constructed from [Foundation Stones], making it indestructible and impossible to destroy."

Xiao Hongchen's eyes widened in astonishment, speechless. Connecting to another world? This unimaginable thing was far too mysterious and bizarre. No matter how much he pondered, he couldn't find the right words to describe the shock and confusion in his heart. He felt his worldview shaken to its core at this moment.

But the butterfly didn't stop, and continued, "The last sentence, [Crossing the gate of ten thousand years, descending to the mortal world. The place where you stand draws the realm of ten thousand years to the front]."

This means that the world this door leads to is ten thousand years ago, which is quite interesting.

Xiao Hongchen frowned and asked anxiously, "Then, A-Die, what should we do now?"

Xia Die's eyes flickered slightly, and she said in a deep voice, "This matter is indeed troublesome, but Senior Xiao, I have an idea about the mission to kill the top of the Negative List. The list only requires that Tang San be eliminated, but it does not specify which time period he is in."

A ripple of surprise stirred within her. This seemingly parallel world boundary marker, the first world it anchored to, was inextricably linked to the world she was currently in?

That was the Douluo Continent ten thousand years ago—the Douluo Continent world that featured Tang San as the protagonist and belonged to the first part.

Opening this door will be no easy task. Although he could barely manage it on his own, doing so would inevitably disrupt the balance that maintains the world, thus attracting the attention of the Balance.

However, it is still possible to open this door using the power of imaginary numbers, but since the balance in the world has already been broken, what does it matter if the situation becomes even more chaotic?
Xia Die stepped aside, letting Meng Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen think about it first.

With a flick of his finger, a mysterious purple vortex appeared out of thin air in an instant—an imaginary channel opened using spatial powers.

Xia Die moved aside, giving Meng Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen time to ponder.

With a slight flick of her fingertips, a mysterious purple vortex appeared out of thin air—an imaginary channel opened by the power of space.

She then placed an item inside, and the purple vortex transformed into a stream of light, vanishing without a trace.

Although the influence of this boundary marker covers the entire Douluo Continent, its mere appearance is enough to cause a huge uproar in the Douluo Continent's Soul Master world.
