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

Chapter 185 The Land of Reincarnation
Shrek Academy. At this moment, a group of Shrek Academy's powerful members were hovering above Shrek Academy, surrounded by most of the inner court disciples. As Shrek Academy, they were using this Soul Beast Ranking as teaching material to introduce these powerful Soul Beasts of the era to their inner court disciples.

"Bi Ji is only ranked eighth on the Soul Beast Ranking?" Yan Shaozhe frowned slightly, because Bi Ji was already ranked fourth among the top ten ferocious beasts, but there were seven more ranked ahead of her on the Soul Beast Ranking. This meant that there were many powerful Soul Beasts on the Douluo Continent that were unknown to human Soul Beasts.

[Seventh on the Soul Beast Ranking: Venomous Scorpion (Poison Queen), Reward: Increases her cultivation to 700,000 years and bestows upon her the rank of a Second-Level God]

[Sixth on the Soul Beast Ranking: Amber Demon Serpent (Sand Emperor), Reward: Increases its cultivation to 700,000 years and bestows upon it the rank of a second-level deity]

As expected, the name ranked seventh on the Soul Beast Ranking was unfamiliar to everyone. Even deep within the Star Dou Great Forest, few knew of this "Venomous Scorpion (Poison Queen)".

There are only a handful of soul beasts that exist.

The Douluo Continent is vast and boundless. Of course, besides the Star Dou Great Forest, the far north, and the ocean, there are also powerful beings lurking in the desert and the scorching volcanoes.

[Fifth on the Soul Beast Ranking: Crowned Mermaid (Sea Princess), Reward: Increases her cultivation to 700,000 years and bestows upon her the rank of a first-level deity]

The position of a first-level deity!
The fifth-ranked person on the list has been revealed, and the divine position in the reward has finally been promoted to level one, instantly attracting the attention of the entire continent.

Deep in the icy sea, beneath the churning waves, hundreds of graceful figures danced in the water, their sweet songs echoing across the land—these were the mermaids who dwelled here. Their long, aquamarine hair flowed behind them in a disc-like shape, unaffected by the current, concealing their approximately three-meter-long bodies—their upper bodies resembling human women, covered only by jewel-encrusted white seashells, while their lower bodies were enormous fish tails covered in deep blue scales, reflecting shimmering light.

Among them, a dozen or so mermaids were particularly eye-catching, with the sapphire in the center of their silver crowns signifying their status; they were the strongest among the crowned mermaids.

At the very front, a mermaid wearing a golden crown and with a fishtail covered in golden scales was bathed in the golden light of the divine ranking. Her powerful aura caused all her people to involuntarily bow down in worship—she was the patriarch of the mermaid clan, the Sea Princess.

As the golden light faded, the Sea Princess slowly opened her captivating eyes. Her seven hundred thousand years of cultivation intertwined with the divine power of a first-level deity. With a flick of her golden fishtail, the seawater transformed into countless golden specks of light. "Congratulations, Sea Princess!"

The mermaids bowed in unison, while the sea princess swam freely in the water. The unique charm of the middle-aged beauty was fully displayed in her dance, and the golden crown and scales complemented each other, as if proclaiming that this ocean queen had already taken control of a divine domain.

[Fourth on the Soul Beast Ranking: Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler (Evil Emperor), Reward: Increases his cultivation to 800,000 years and bestows upon him the rank of a first-level god]

Empire of the Sun and Moon, Demonic Forest.

In the thick, inky aura of gloom, all the spirit beasts in the forest trembled and prostrated themselves on the ground, not daring to breathe too heavily. A gigantic evil eye, three hundred meters long, hovered in the sky, its dark purple vertical pupils gleaming with excited light. Dozens of tentacles covered with suckers danced wildly like giant chains, distorting and deforming the space in their wake—this was none other than the second-ranked totem spirit beast among the ten ferocious beasts, the Sun Moon Empire's Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler.

As the only being capable of rivaling Di Tian, ​​the Evil Emperor's reputation shook the entire continent. Years ago, he single-handedly stormed the Star Dou Forest to challenge the Beast God, ultimately losing, but his signature technique, "Light of Time and Space," severely injured Di Tian, ​​allowing him to escape unscathed—a testament to his terrifying strength. Now, with eight hundred thousand years of cultivation and the power of a first-level deity flowing into his body, ripples of time and space began to emanate from the space around the Evil Eye, and dark purple energy surged like boiling magma.

"Which hidden powerhouse is ranked above me..." The Evil Emperor's voice boomed like thunder, a hint of wariness flashing in his vertical pupils. He naturally knew of the Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena's existence, but aside from Di Tian and this new Dragon God, the last place in the top three of the Soul Beast Ranking had actually made this arrogant beast feel threatened. Dark purple light condensed in his tentacles as he stared at the ranking list, as if trying to see through his unknown opponent. The golden God Ranking floated in the sky, its oppressive aura sweeping across the Douluo Continent like a tidal wave.

[Third place on the Soul Beast Ranking: The Other Shore Flower (Ye Yukes), Reward: The Super Artifact Reincarnation Book]

A crimson-gold beam of light suddenly descended from the sky above St. Freya Academy.

At the center of the pillar of light, the figure of Ye Yukes slowly emerged. He was surrounded by faintly visible blood-red vines, and in the instant his pale fingers grasped, an ancient and heavy book condensed from the void—the cover had flowing dark patterns, like blooming spider lilies swaying between the boundary of life and death. The pages were not yet opened, but it exuded a chilling aura of reincarnation.

[Second place on the Soul Beast Ranking: Deep Sea Demon Whale King (Demon Emperor), Reward: Increase his cultivation to 900,000 years and bestow upon him the rank of a first-level deity]

"Deep-Sea Demon Whale King!"

When that name resounded across the sky, the entire Douluo Continent trembled. The breathtaking battle of the Divine Trial ten thousand years ago seemed to reappear before their eyes—the Sea God Tang San, with the force of thunder, slew the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, who was about to break through a million years old, and took its soul ring to forge his godhood. This battle had long become a legend passed down by word of mouth among the soul masters of the continent.

However, at this moment, the overwhelming pressure emanating from the depths of the sea shattered everyone's understanding. A colossal whale, blotting out the sky, burst forth from the waves, its purplish-black scales gleaming with a cold metallic sheen, and each swing of its massive tail fin whipped up waves a thousand meters high. Unlike the former Demon Whale King's ferocity, she was surrounded by an aura of suppressed hatred, her dark purple vertical pupils reflecting the shattered sunlight on the sea's surface. She was none other than the new overlord of the deep sea—the widow of the slain Demon Whale King.

"Tang San!"

A roar materialized into sonic waves that tore through the seawater. The Deep Sea Demon Whale King's body shimmered with the brilliant purple light of a 900,000-year-old soul ring, and the power of a first-level deity awakened within her. She opened her massive maw, filled with sharp teeth, and a beam of energy containing destructive power shot into the sky. Wherever it passed, the seawater boiled and evaporated, and countless weak soul beasts were reduced to dust under this terrifying pressure. [First Place on the Soul Beast Ranking: Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King (Beast God Di Tian), Reward: Increases its cultivation to 900,000 years and bestows upon it the position of a first-level deity]

Beast God Emperor Tian!

The moment this name was uttered, the entire Douluo Continent held its breath. As the undisputed strongest being of his time, he was not only the supreme soul beast, but also dominated the world with his extreme dark attributes and Yin-Yang dual soul cores. Even with Mu En, Long Xiaoyao, and Ye Xishui, the three Limit Douluos, becoming demigods through the rewards of the God Ranking, Di Tian, ​​having broken through the 900,000-year limit, still firmly held the pinnacle of strength. His Dragon God's secret soul skill, "Dragon God Claw," displayed the full might of a demigod when unleashed.

Above the Star Dou Great Forest, a black dragon, blotting out the sun, coiled and roared. As the power of nine hundred thousand years of cultivation and the status of a first-level god was poured into it, the black dragon erupted with dazzling golden light, and the divine patterns flowing between its scales tore through the clouds. With a dragon's roar that resounded throughout the heavens and earth, Di Tian's divine halo solidified, officially stepping into the divine realm, announcing that the strongest legend of the Douluo Continent had reached a new peak.

The current soul beast race is vastly different from what it used to be.

Under the protection of the Dragon God Gu Yuena, who possesses the power of "Immortality," her very existence is an unbreakable barrier. As long as Gu Yuena stands firm, any attempt to hunt soul beasts is tantamount to throwing an egg against a rock. This is not only due to the disparity in strength, but also a form of deterrence—anyone who dares to make a rash move is openly declaring war on the entire soul beast race and the absolute authority of the Dragon God.

After the public announcement of the Golden List was completed, all the stone tablets on the ground immediately disappeared.

More accurately, it is assimilating with it.

But after all the stone tablets disappeared, a golden-haired old man appeared, leaving only a golden scroll in the entire world.

He seemed to be looking in one direction and said, "Everyone, this Heavenly Ranking has come to an end. Now, do you have any questions?"

Someone mustered the courage to ask, "Were you sent down from the heavens?"

The old man just chuckled and said, "Of course not. You can understand it as us acting according to the rules. This involves knowledge of a spatial dimension. We belong to the timeline intersection formed in the universe that exists in an eight-dimensional space. This involves a lot of time, and I will tell you about it one by one."

First, there is the one-dimensional space dimension, which is a line formed by countless points. It has only two directions: forward and backward, and this is the most basic structure.

Two-dimensional space is a plane composed of countless one-dimensional lines...

The subsequent explanation of the first three dimensions to the tenth dimension was truly awe-inspiring.

In three dimensions, a vertical line is added to the planar surface to form a three-dimensional space.

Three-dimensional beings can perceive the complete three-dimensional world, including height, width, and depth.

Four-dimensional space adds a time axis to three-dimensional space, forming a timeline by connecting countless three-dimensional spaces.

Four-dimensional beings can travel through space, traversing different three-dimensional spaces through their perception of four-dimensional space.

Five-dimensional space adds a time axis to four-dimensional space, forming both horizontal and vertical time axes. Different parallel universes exist at the same point in time.

Beings in the fifth dimension can see different branches of the past and future universes and can control the connections between parallel universes.

The characteristics of six-dimensional space are formed by adding a higher axis to the five-dimensional space, creating a three-dimensional time axis. The horizontal axis represents the future and the past, the vertical axis represents different parallel universes, and the higher axis represents the spacetime of the future and the past of any parallel universe.

Beings in six-dimensional space can arbitrarily alter time and space, and can travel between different parallel universes and timelines.

The characteristic of seven-dimensional space is that six-dimensional space is imagined as a point with infinite possibilities, which can be understood as a line formed by connecting another point with infinite possibilities.

Seven-dimensional beings can connect to different six-dimensional universes and perceive more complex spacetime structures.
