Douluo: Unbeatable from Capturing a Goddess

"No, it can't be a formation,"

"A formation wouldn't be this massive, it must be a barrier!"

Under the reflection of Luo Yu's fully activated eyes, the darkness ahead disappeared, replaced by a giant golden transparent membrane.

He had been flying for a long time trying to find an end but discovered none.

The scenery inside the membrane was not clear, just a hazy golden fog, and the membrane itself was engraved with very complex special patterns.

"This has to be the Divine Realm."

Luo Yu was very certain and began to look for a breakthrough.

If he forcibly slashed through the membrane and barged in, it would inevitably alarm the many deities of the Divine Realm, so he had to find a way to sneak in undetected.

He chose a spot, placed his palm against the golden membrane, and felt the composition of the barrier.

He couldn't help but grimace.

This energy was not like any known elemental energy; it was more like Divine Power from deities. He couldn't use the power of space to directly teleport through it.

Could he only force his way through?

Luo Yu was somewhat worried.

Having reached the doorstep, he couldn't just not enter.

Setting aside the danger, Luo Yu was actually quite interested in what the Divine Realm looked like, as well as the women there, well, "that kind of interest."

But he was here on urgent business.

"Clang!"

Luo Yu raised his hand and summoned the Nine Heavens Execution Sword, but he didn't plan to make a flashy strike.

Under the cover of the Boundless Universe Shield, he activated his eighth soul skill.

In an instant, the ancient-looking longsword transformed dramatically, turning completely silver, then disassembled inch by inch.

It became countless strands as thin as cow's hair.

"Eighth soul skill: Silverlight Scattering Blade, 108,000 Swords!"

Each silver sword strand, being so fine, was hard to detect with the naked eye. If they were spread in the air, attacking the enemy from all directions, it would be impossible to defend against and difficult to counter.

Luo Yu furrowed his brows and raised his sword finger.

"Go!"

The 108,000 slender sword strands, each one piercing the same spot on the golden membrane.

In a short moment.

It endured countless strikes from the sword strands.

With Luo Yu's current strength, even without the Spirit of the Plane's enhancement, but having absorbed the Dragon King Origin, fused with the Nine Great Soul Bones, and been cleansed by the Power of Heaven and Earth, he was comparable to an average Divine King.

In an instant, striking out 108,000 Swords, the golden membrane couldn't withstand it.

"Ding ding ding ding!"

"Pop!"

He directly pierced through the membrane, creating an invisible tiny hole.

And it was healing rapidly.

Luo Yu had been waiting for this moment for a long time, seizing this split-second gap, he retracted the Zhu Tian Sword, shrank his body under the Boundless Universe Shield.

And slipped through like a wisp of smoke.

The golden membrane completely healed and repaired itself at that moment, and the outside world turned back into boundless darkness.

Even if someone came here, without guidance, they would never detect that the Divine Realm was right here.

"Whoosh!"

Luo Yu suddenly appeared in a different space.

He summoned the Boundless Universe Shield to cover himself first thing and then observed his surroundings.

All around him, the scenery had changed; no longer was there a universe shrouded in darkness, replaced by a peaceful and auspicious fairyland with golden clouds drifting.

Looking around, there were palatial buildings everywhere.

After holding his breath for a long time, Luo Yu began to breathe, and just inhaling the air made him feel relieved all over.

He almost couldn't help letting out a groan.

"Hiss—"

"Damn!"

"Is this the Divine Realm?"

Luo Yu couldn't help but exclaim, "It has to be said, the gap between the mortal world and the Divine Realm is too great, no wonder both the Asura God and Rakshasa were so shocked to see my strength."

"This Divine Realm contains nature's spiritual energy, which is more than a hundred times stronger than that of the mortal world, and the quality is not even on the same level."

"If one were to cultivate in this environment, progress would be incredibly rapid."

"Of course, you need a good 'digestive system' to enjoy good things; the prerequisite is that your body can withstand the quality of this spiritual energy, otherwise, you would explode and die in an instant."

Luo Yu drew in a few more deep breaths, feeling refreshed and spirited.

"Indeed, the Divine Realm is the home of the wealthy."

"Forget it, I am, after all, the ruler of a plane, I can't be like some bumpkin."

"Also, I don't know if my stealthy entrance just now was detected."

Luo Yu chuckled wryly.

He had been so cautious, only prying open a crack thinner than a cow's hair to slip in—how could he possibly be discovered?

Meanwhile, in a spacious hall filled with golden array patterns, if one observed carefully, they would find that they matched the ones on the golden membrane outside.

In the center of the array patterns stood a tender and extremely beautiful woman, with emerald-green hair cascading down to her waist like a waterfall, dressed in a light-colored elegant gown, her voluptuous chest and slender waist accentuated, and her fair, shapely legs visible beneath the hem of her dress.

Her aura was indescribable, with just one glance feeling like a breath of spring air.

She had her eyes closed but they suddenly opened.

Ambiguous questions flashed in her beautiful amber eyes.

"Strange, I feel a disturbance in the divine realm's barrier, and yet it feels like nothing."

The woman fell into doubt.

"Such a minor commotion, surely nothing strange infiltrated, right?"

After some thought, the woman still decided to investigate.

In a flash, a rich life essence burst forth and that uniquely beautiful and elegant figure had already disappeared within the palace.

...

Elsewhere, Luo Yu had just evaded the divine realm's patrol guards, with only three God Rings trailing behind him.

He estimated that with just three God Rings, even the first one slain by Gu Yuena was classed better than those.

Of course, they could not possibly detect him hidden within the Boundless Universe Shield.

But now, Luo Yu was a bit worried, frowning with a map Gu Yuena gave him in his hands.

This was completely different.

The divine realm had undergone significant changes to such an extent that he now had no clue where he was on the map.

He had to think of something, as his time was far from plentiful.

Luo Yu pondered for a moment, his eyes lit up with a brilliant idea.

"Got it!"

He shifted his form and vanished on the spot.

Shortly after his disappearance, an otherworldly beautiful woman with long green hair appeared there.

Her body emitted an immensely powerful divine spirit aura as she probed the surroundings.

Suspicion sparkled in her beautiful eyes.

"The Sea God's aura?"

"Hasn't the Sea God recently left the divine realm to deal with matters in another star domain?"

"Something's not right."

...

Divine Realm.

In a verdant bamboo forest, there stood a quaint and elegant cottage with spirit birds perching on the eaves and a cute white spirit beast wandering outside the door.

Pleasuring guqin sounds drifted out from the windows and doors.

Inside the cottage, a calm and graceful woman with a willowy brow and eyes like still waters, covered by a white veil, was gently strumming the strings.

The woman had a soft and graceful figure and five Ringed Divine Halos behind her.

Her tender jade-like fingers glowed faintly.

With each movement of her fingertips, captivating melodies flowed forth.

"Phoenix Seeking Phoenix, huh..."

The guqin music halted, the reverberation lingering.

The beauty voiced a gentle and melodious sound.

She looked outside the window and sighed softly.

"I wonder what that guy is thinking. Ordinary people would be overjoyed to receive the favor of deities and kowtow in thanks."

"Yet, he rejected me without a moment's hesitation."

"Is becoming a god not enticing to him?"

As she spoke, her eyes could not conceal the admiration within.

"Though a bit foolish,"

"To be able to play such extraordinary music, and yet to care not for divine powers, how many men like that are there in the world, probably only him..."

The beauty lowered her head, looking at her guqin-playing fingers, somewhat entranced.

"It's a pity."

"Now, with the time-space distortions separating Soul Land, otherwise, I'd really like to meet this guy."

"Such stunning musical talent, yet he learns from those coarse brutes—how foolish. Why not follow me, take a shortcut to godhood?"
