Douluo Continent: The 18-year-old Sword God was exposed by the heavens.

Sunset Forest, Poison Valley in the Earth's Core.

The miasma was as black as ink, and the poisonous waves surged. Ordinary soul masters would have their flesh and bones melt away and turn into a pool of blood if they got too close.

In the heart of this desolate place lies a hidden valley with a unique spiritual energy, where exotic flowers and rare herbs grow freely, and cold and warm air currents intertwine and swirl, creating a hazy halo.

Dugu Bo stood with his hands behind his back on a blue stone platform. His dark green robes swayed slightly in the breeze of invisible soul power, and the faint green phosphorescent poison mist around him seemed to be alive and fluctuating.

The aura of a level 92 Title Douluo was concealed, but the lingering gloom and pain between his brows revealed the torment he had suffered from the backlash of toxins for many years.

"grandfather!"

"I've come here to tell you that guy from Shrek Academy named Tang San! He was able to easily neutralize my Azure Phosphorus Poison, and even his martial soul completely countered it!"

Dugu Yan rushed in from outside the valley, her expression showing a mixture of urgency and barely suppressed excitement. She ran all the way to Dugu Bo, her voice trembling slightly.

Dugu Bo's originally lazy gaze suddenly sharpened, and two points of light burst forth from his turbid eyes.

"Can it cure the phosphorus poison in your body?"

"That's not all!" Dugu Yan nodded repeatedly, her tone becoming increasingly urgent: "His methods seem to be a natural counter to all snake venom!"

With just one sentence, Dugu Bo's aura suddenly surged.

Having suffered from poisoning for years, enduring torment day and night, he searched the world for rare treasures to no avail. Now, finally hearing a glimmer of hope, how could he not be excited?

"Great, excellent!"

Dugu Bo stomped his foot slightly, causing the space around him to distort slightly, preparing to break through the void and head directly to Blue Tyrant Academy to capture Tang San.

"I will go there myself. If he truly possesses such abilities, I will spare his life; if he is merely putting on a show..."

Before the chilling killing intent could fully spread, an indescribable, grand tremor suddenly resounded throughout the world.

Om-! !

It was not a sound wave, nor a fluctuation of soul power, but a resonance that directly affected the origin of the soul.

As if in the beginning of chaos, when the foundation of heaven and earth was laid, an immense pressure that transcended all the rules of Douluo Star poured down from the heavens without warning.

Dugu Bo's figure suddenly froze in mid-air.

The pent-up soul power instantly solidified within his body.

Even the Azure Phosphorous Serpent Emperor Martial Soul appeared uncontrollably on its own.

The enormous snake's head drooped slightly.

It was trembling slightly.

It exudes a sense of awe and fear that comes from the depths of one's soul.

"What...what kind of power is this?!"

Dugu Bo's expression changed drastically, his pupils contracted sharply, and his eagerness and killing intent were instantly dispelled, leaving only indescribable horror.

Dugu Yan, standing to the side, was completely stiff, her face as pale as paper, her legs weak and almost unable to stand. She could only look up blankly at the suddenly changing sky.

At the same time.

The entire Douluo Star was transformed, its heavens and earth changing color.

The once clear and bright sky was slowly covered by a boundless layer of primordial golden light.

The light curtain stretches across east and west, and north and south, from the snow-capped mountains of the far north ice field to the vast, raging waves of the South China Sea.

From the majestic Papal Palace in Wuhun City to the hidden forbidden areas of the Clear Sky Sect in the deep mountains;

From the forbidden core of the Star Dou Great Forest to the Poseidon Island across the ocean...

The celestial curtain descends, reaching everywhere and leaving nothing out.

The golden light was vast, majestic, cold, and supreme, not belonging to the soul power of the mortals, nor resembling the great power of gods. It was as if the Heavenly Dao itself had opened its eyes and looked down upon all living beings in the world.

Above the sky, golden light flowed, and a line of cold, majestic, and supreme characters slowly condensed, imprinting themselves deep within the retinas of every living being.

Heaven and earth serve as a screen, and all living beings as a viewpoint.

Today, this grand spectacle unfolds, tracing the past, revealing secrets, determining strength and weakness, and judging superiority and inferiority.

[Special Announcement - The Top Ten Strongest Humans in Douluo Continent.]

The indifferent and serene voice of the Dao resonates deep within every soul.

"The ranking is based on a comprehensive evaluation of realm, combat strength, foundation, and strategic deterrence."

"Those who make the list will receive divine rewards, their martial spirits will evolve, and their cultivation levels will skyrocket."

"Once the rankings are released, they will be broadcast live across the entire platform. No one can avoid them, and no one can stop them."

.....

at the same time!

Endless void, the edge of chaos!

A young man in a plain white robe stood silently in the void.

There was no leakage of soul power or display of aura around him, but the void around him was slightly distorted, and the laws of spacetime flowed around him like a gentle stream.

Lin Xiao slowly opened his eyes.

In his eyes, countless sword shadows flashed by, then quickly returned to silence, leaving only a clear, indifferent gaze as vast as an ancient glacier.

In that instant, at the age of eighteen, he broke through the inherent constraints of the Douluo Star Plane by relying on his extraordinary comprehension and the supreme swordsmanship of the Divine Firmament Sword Martial Soul.

It does not rely on divine positions, does not depend on tradition, and does not depend on the slightest favor from the divine realm.

He used his own swordsmanship to prove himself a level 100 True God.

Unprecedented in history, unprecedented in the past.

Free from the constraints of divine status and the limitations of rules, it truly transcends the mortal realm, rivals the gods, and even surpasses the limits that this plane can bear in terms of pure power.

The Divine Firmament Sword trembled gently within his dantian, its clear and melodious sound possessing the supreme divine power to conceal heavenly secrets and shield against all deductions and investigations.

From this day forward, throughout all the heavens and myriad realms, unless one witnesses his appearance in person, no one, no matter who or what god, can find even a trace of him.

Lin Xiao slightly raised his hand, and a wisp of unparalleled sword intent flowed from his fingertips, enough to easily tear apart the dimensional barrier and travel to the vast heavens and myriad worlds to pursue a more profound path of swordsmanship.

But just as he was about to set off...

Below, on Douluo Star, the vast primordial sky that spans the heavens and earth suddenly appeared.

Lin Xiao raised an eyebrow, a hint of understanding flashing in his eyes.

His identity as a time traveler made him instantly understand everything.

His arrival was no longer a simple intrusion, but rather like a butterfly flapping its wings.

From the moment the Martial Soul awakens, it continuously distorts and alters the original trajectory of this world.

Now that the heavens have descended upon the world, and we are taking stock of the powerful, it is clear that this butterfly effect has triggered a cataclysmic change in the world.

"Unexpectedly, my appearance has created a butterfly effect that leads to the Golden List in the Sky."

Lin Xiao chuckled lightly, showing no fear whatsoever, but rather a hint of curiosity.

He had only heard of most of the top experts on this continent, but had never actually met them.

Poseidon, Tang Chen, Qian Daoliu, Bibi Dong...

What is the true combat strength of these characters who stand at the top of the pyramid in the original work?

And where would I, an eighteen-year-old level 100 True God without a divine position, rank on this Heavenly Dao Ranking?

Is it the first person, or someone else?

He stood with his hands behind his back in the void, his figure obscured by the chaotic air currents. Even though the sky covered the entire area, it could not penetrate the divine secrets of the Divine Firmament Sword to lock onto his location.

Lin Xiao quietly looked down at the trembling continent below, like an observer, waiting for the list to be revealed.

......

All the major powers on Douluo Star were shaken.

Wuhun City, the Pope's Palace.

Bibi Dong sat on the highest jade throne, her magnificent crown unable to suppress the cold beauty and majesty between her brows.

The twin martial souls stirred slightly within her body, and an irresistible pressure descended from the sky, causing even this level 97 Super Douluo to feel a chill in her heart.

She looked up abruptly, a hint of fear flashing in her beautiful eyes.

"This aura... far surpasses that of a Limit Douluo, and even... transcends the fluctuations of a divine inheritance?"

The several elders of the Spirit Hall below remained silent, not daring to even breathe loudly.

"Your Holiness, what exactly is this celestial canopy?"

Bibi Dong remained silent for a moment, then her voice was cold and solemn: "I don't know. But to be able to cover the entire continent and forcibly draw in the souls of all living beings is something no human could do."

She pondered to herself.

The top ten strongest people on the mainland?

With his cultivation level and twin martial souls, even if he can't reach the top, he will definitely have a place in the top ten.

Even a top-five finish is not impossible.
