The Sky Curtain roared onward, the cosmos swirling as Will of Heaven's voice resonated across all realms."Now that Arceus had created the foundation for every world in the universe, he flew through the void, ensuring everything was perfect. That was when he encountered two cocoons—one pure white, the other deep, dark purple."
[The screen showed Arceus drifting through the silent expanse of space, where two cocoons made of raw energy floated. One blazed with blinding white light; the other pulsed with a velvet, black-purple darkness.
Arceus muttered, "Such pure origins of Creation and Destruction."]
[Inside the cocoons, he saw shadows of two teens stirring, pulsing with life.]
God Realm
God of Slaughter, Asura, frowned. "Who are they?"
Goddess of Kindness, Shan Liang, whispered, "Whoever they are, both cocoons seem to embody Creation and Destruction themselves."
God of Destruction, Hui Mie, shook his head slowly. "They don't just embody those powers. They are Creation and Destruction."
Will of Heaven narrated: "Lord Arceus recognized them instantly and chose to awaken them."
[With a wave of golden light, the cocoons cracked open.From the white cocoon emerged an attractive young boy with golden eyes and golden blonde hair, radiating pure, warm light.]
[From the purple cocoon came his mirror image, save for his long, flowing purple hair, magnificent purple robes, and a slender, beautiful figure. His grey eyes held a deathly stillness, filled with infinite calm.]
[Both children looked up simultaneously and cried out in unison:"Father."]
[Arceus was taken aback—but calmed quickly. He already knew their identities. And how could he deny those curious eyes gazing into his soul?]
[Arceus smiled gently. "I should name you."
The two gazed at him with wide, eager curiosity.]
[Arceus spoke their names:
"You are Hao Yue—Destruction."
"And you are Chang Shen—Creation."
The two children rushed forward, hugging Arceus tightly, shouting happily, "Father!"]
Will of Heaven Revealed Truth
"It seems many are curious about these two." Will of Heaven's voice grew grave. "They were born when the universe first came into existence. Two Primordial Energies that gained consciousness. Chang Shen is the true being of Creation; Hao Yue is the true being of Destruction.
"To clear all confusion: The God of Destruction, Hui Mie, carries only an aspect of Destruction. Hao Yue is the true Destruction. You can say these two are the older brothers of the God Kings."
God Realm Shock
God of Destruction, Hui Mie, muttered in disbelief. "Older brothers…"
God of Evil, Xie E, chuckled. "We have a Father, and now two older brothers."
Goddess of Life, Sheng Ming, questioned, "But why haven't we seen either of them intervene during the Dragon God Rampage?"
Goddess of Kindness, Shan Liang, answered softly. "There must be a reason they chose not to interfere until now. Remember? Lord Kyogre was ordered not to intervene and to let Poseidon live. That was Lord Arceus's command."
God of Slaughter, Asura, narrowed his eyes. "He said 'the time has not arrived.' Now the question is: what are they waiting for?"
A cold premonition gripped Asura. His eyes darkened as every suspicion pointed to one name: Tang San. His chosen successor.
They are waiting for Tang San.
Asura clenched his fist, his divine will hardening. "I will retrieve my divine thought from both Tang Hao and Tang San. They are both becoming too troublesome."
[Time flowed like a river. Arceus took a respite from shaping the cosmos and spent centuries raising Hao Yue and Chang Shen. The boys grew rapidly into adulthood, their inherited powers of Creation and Destruction blooming to their full potential.]
[Soon, they noticed their father lost in deep thought. Sensing the weight on his heart—the immense task of birthing life into the universe—they approached him.]
["What troubles you, Father?" they asked in unison. "We will help in any way possible."]
[Arceus smiled, but his eyes held a gravity that silenced even the void.]
Will of Heaven's voice turned solemn, echoing across every realm."To all who listen: This is something serious. Everything—from all worlds to the God Realm—will be affected. Listen carefully to Lord Arceus."
[Arceus nodded to his sons. "What you are about to hear is the Core Secret of the Universe."]
[Chang Shen and Hao Yue nodded solemnly.]
From the Douluo Continent to the highest peaks of the God Realm, every being stilled, hanging on Arceus's words.
[Arceus explained:"There is force in universe and it is called Corruption. It exists in every world and every universe. It is born when Gods manipulate mortal worlds: causing genocides, unleashing suffering through their methods or ideologies. When a World's Corruption reaches 97%, it triggers the complete destruction of that world and all worlds nearby. The same fate awaits the Universe itself."]
God's Realm
The God Kings froze, dread gripping their divine hearts.
Goddess of Life, Sheng Ming, whispered, "Would the Dragon God Rampage have caused Corruption to increase?"
None could answer.
God of Destruction, Hui Mie, urgently turned to the void."Will of Heaven! What is the current Corruption rate of the Douluo Dalu World and Douluo Dalu Universe?"
Will of Heaven:"Douluo Dalu World: 22%.
Douluo Dalu Universe: 32%."
The God Kings exhaled in collective relief.
God of Evil, Xie E, chuckled nervously. "That's manageable. We just need preventive measures."
God of Destruction nodded firmly. "Agreed. We must strengthen the Rules of Divine Intervention. And we likely don't need to interfere directly in the Mortal World. I get the feeling… Lord Arceus is already down there."
Just as relief began to settle, Will of Heaven's voice cut through the calm, sharp and final.
"Do not be relieved so quickly."
The Sky Curtain darkened, a ominous red hue spreading."The Corruption rate of both the Douluo Dalu World and Douluo Dalu Universe will soon surge to 95%. And it is single handedly done by future GodKing Successor in just 40 thousand years."
Silence shattered into panic.
95% meant they were only 2% away from total annihilation.
God Kings rose in alarm.
Asura's eyes narrowed, his mind racing. Tang San… could his actions be the trigger?
