Liu Mei's Ascension - Godking of...
🕑 Added 2025-04-02 15:47:46 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 423 ---
Liu Mei calmly stared at the purple, thunderbolt-shaped devil fruit on Huo Yuhao's hand. She knew some mythology from Dragon Nest's database and knew Dianmau was the Goddess of Lightning, who shone the earth with her light mirror, which allowed lightning to strike true.
This Devil Fruit must possess conceptual power based on that legend. If Liu Mei consumes this Devil Fruit, the "Thunder Demon Empress" Martial Soul may or may not inherit its conceptual power but still evolve into a God-level Martial Soul.
"Are you nervous?" Huo Yuhao asked with a gentle smile.
"Don't be. With me around, you can relax..."
Liu Mei smiled back and took the devil fruit, "Thank you, Master."
"You're still calling me Master when there are just two of us?" Huo Yuhao raised his brow.
Amused by Huo Yuhao's reaction, Liu Mei couldn't help but giggle, "Thank you, Yuhao."
After saying that, she ate the devil's fruit and meditated on the platform Huo Yuhao created. The Thunder Demon Empress cried excitedly as the sea of lightning concentrated all its energy on Liu Mei.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The sound of thunder strikes echoed in the secret realm.
Kacha!
The armor on the Thunder Demon Empress exploded, revealing her curvy and bold figure. However, Huo Yuhao didn't focus much on this appealing sight and watched fine particles of laws in the Secret Realm supporting Liu Mei's transformation because she had the demonic right arm made from the Phantom Emperor's remains.
Yes, this is the result Huo Yuhao wanted to see. The "damage" on the Thunder Demon Empress's origin slowly recovered, patched with the concept from the Dianmu Devil Fruit, and further reinforced with the fortune he had given.
At the same time, the Demonic Right Arm also made a "deep" connection with the currently evolving Thunder Demon Empress, forming a symbiotic relationship with each other.
The Thunder Demon Empress now has an extra arm on her right shoulder, which looks demonic and illusory, as if it wasn't real.
Then, each arm condensed an innate divine weapon.
Thunder Demon Empress's natural right and left hand held a divine sword and a hexagonal mirror.
The divine sword is just Liu Mei's previous weapon, which she condensed and refined over time. Meanwhile, the mirror is new, born into the Martial Soul due to Dianmu Devil Fruit.
The Demonic Right Arm also condensed a weapon. It's a dark-red pagoda with flickering crimson lightning.
The three divine weapons shone blindly in the secret realm and baptized Liu Mei, blessing her with divine energy and power.
Liu Mei slowly floated off the platform, rising to the sky. Her incomplete God's sea came off her chest with the thunderous roar of a dragon and wrapped in dazzling purple lightning.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
The secret realm was on the verge of destruction because ascending to godhood was not easy. It's the complete transition of a mortal into a higher-dimensional being.
It would be fine if Liu Mei only ascended as 1st Class God or below because those in this range are only 4th Dimensional Beings.
Unfortunately, this secret realm indirectly allowed Liu Mei to break the very limitation of Douluo Dalu's universe here, breaking into a Godking directly.
Huo Yuhao summoned True Evil Piece, which was always in the shape of a queen, and flicked it to the God's seat Liu Mei formed, helping her stabilize the divinity she carried and the last hurdle.
[Ding! You have added "Liu Mei, The Unknown Goddess" to your peerage]
[The peerage board detected that "Liu Mei" has immense potential!]
[Raising Liu Mei's raw potential and innate talents by 700%]
[Liu Mei's current potential: EXX+]
Liu Mei slowly opened her eyes, revealing two majestic violet eyes with golden pin-wheel pupils that spun mysteriously. She drew something with her slender finger, and a purple line appeared, shattering the surrounding space-time into oblivion.
"Torn to Nothingness!"
"From now on..."
"I'm Thunder Demon Goddess, the Conqueror and Judgement of Divine Lightning!"
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!
After Liu Mei declared her will, Huo Yuhao sensed that heaven and earth accepted her presence and canonized her as the first and last Thunder Demon Goddess. He couldn't help but feel proud of her.
Swoosh!
Someone hugged Huo Yuhao, and it was none other than Liu Mei. Her skin glowed charmingly as her long, purple hair shone dreamily.
Huo Yuhao hugged her and whispered, "You did it, Mei. You have become a goddess."
"Mm, but..." Liu Mei buried her head in his embrace. "I'm your goddess only, Yuhao."
Cough! Cough!
Raikou finally appeared, standing on the now recovered Sonares. "I hate to break this up, but the secret realm couldn't hold us anymore, you lovebirds!"
Huo Yuhao sighed helplessly, and Liu Mei blushed shyly. It's hard to believe this woman was the same person as the previous, indifferent Thunder Demon Goddess.
"Owner!" Sonares called Liu Mei excitedly. "Get on my back, and I will fly us back to the temple."
Huo Yuhao lifted Liu Mei's body and held her like a princess, jumping to Sonares's back. "Let's go."
After that, Sonares hurriedly flew away, reaching a speed similar to that of Huo Yuhao earlier. As Liu Mei's contracted soul beast, Sonares obviously gained some benefits from her advancement to godhood and Thunder Demon Emperor's evolution into Thunder Demon Goddess.
Sonares has evolved into a True Dragon, but her current strength as Liu Mei's ride is only at the level of 2nd Class God. Even then, it's still an impressive feat.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The shattered fragments of the secret realm chased after them, but Sonares overcame it with her extreme speed. Then, they arrived at the entrance in a blink of an eye.
"No, the entrance was sealed!" Sonares's eyes widened, afraid of crashing into the chaotic storm of space and time.
"Continue, don't slow down!" Liu Mei ordered firmly. She summoned her divine sword, held its handle, and entered a stance. "I will break it open for us."
Huo Yuhao saw this and smiled, "This is your first attack as a Goddess, so go all out."
"Understood..." Liu Mei laughed excitedly. She closed her eyes and seized the handle with strong confidence as she had done this a million times in this secret realm.
Trapped and hopeless, she could only cultivate, meditate, and swing her sword. All those accumulations allowed Liu Mei to enter a transcendent realm where she combined three ultimate forces into one.
Divine Lighting - Purple Demon Lightning.
Ultimate Swordsmanship - Style-Breaking Slash.
Ultimate Dustless Heart - Forbearance in Silence of Sorrow.
Liu Mei drew her sword, letting the blade shine with extreme sharpness. She slashed the entrance's barrier, tearing it apart as if it were flimsy paper rather than a chaotic storm of space-time.
Three forces of nature focused on one.
Unity in the Trinity.
"Torn..." Liu Mei whispered, watching a bright white light appearing in her vision.
Swoosh!
Sonares's body vanished into the white light.
BOOM!
Losing the support of the Phantom Lord, the secret realm self-destructed and left nothing but a land of oblivion.
...
...
Skypiea, The Temple of Lightning Goddess.
Huo Yuhao, Liu Mei, Raikou, and Sonares returned safely.
"We are back." Liu Mei stood on Sonares's back in a trance, staring at the glowing sun with a dull expression. Unknowingly, tears slid down her violet eyes.
"I'm back. I'm here. I can finally see the sun."
"So warm, so comfortable..."
"Welcome back, Mei." Huo Yuhao hugged Liu Mei's body tightly, giving her a sense of security.
"Mm..." Liu Mei slowly closed her eyes, drifting into a sleep.
She finally can rest and have a nice dream after thousands of years of constant fighting. The toll on her mind was too much, even with treatment from Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao caressed Liu Mei's hair carefully and kissed her forehead, "Have a nice rest, Mei. When you wake up, I'll give you what you want."
