Su Ming's revelation of the law of conservation of tribulations plunged the Dragon God into great shock. It took him a long time to recover.
"You actually know this much."
The Dragon God sighed.
He looked at Su Ming with a complex gaze.
"Since you are so knowledgeable about Supreme God Kings, you must also understand the difficulty of creating a God Realm. It's not absolutely necessary to break through to the Supreme God King level, but you at least need an authority of that level as a pillar, otherwise the God Realm won't be able to function as intended. If supported only by mere God King authorities, what you created would be at most a small world, incapable of reaching the level of a God Realm."
The Dragon God noticed Su Ming's calm expression and sighed inwardly.
It seemed he would have to share something substantive.
Having just met, Su Ming had already brought up the matter of the Golden Dragon King's origin, putting the Dragon God at a disadvantage.
His current condition was special, and he didn't want to entangle with Su Ming too much.
If Su Ming became unreasonable and destroyed Dragon Valley, the Dragon God's losses would be severe.
Although he wouldn't die and could always return, his ability to interfere with the outside world would be further reduced if Dragon Valley was destroyed.
He was currently in a state of feigned death.
His physical body, consciousness, and even the authorities he controlled had been split apart, but his consciousness was eternal.
Now, his remaining power was only his consciousness.
Of course, he could always mobilize much of the power he had split off.
But that was also limited.
Unless he completely escapes the state of feigned death, only then could he restore his full strength.
However, if he were to break away from that state now, the heavenly tribulation overhead would inevitably descend, and his fate would be dire.
"Sigh, the failure of the Divine Planet Project still left me with a mess."
Recalling the scene of his failed attempt to create a divine planet, the Dragon God sighed emotionally.
Dissatisfied with the ethereal shelter of the God Realm, he had wanted to create a material-side shelter. That way, even the turbulence of space and time would struggle to pose a substantial threat to a divine planet.
The God Realm, on the other hand, was a plane existing in the form of energy, located at an extremely high dimension. Once space-time fluctuated, it was very susceptible – a shelter with significant vulnerabilities.
Unfortunately.
Because of the Divine Planet Project's failure, the Dragon God had incurred a massive tribulation debt.
Even now, countless millennia later, the Spirit Beast clan had produced at least triple-digit numbers of Fierce Beasts, yet they hadn't consumed even a tenth of his tribulation.
Briefly reviewing his current situation, the Dragon God said to Su Ming, "To create a God Realm, based on my estimates, you need at least one Supreme God King-level authority as support, along with the assistance of nine God King-level authorities."
Hearing this, Su Ming's gaze flickered slightly.
So the Douluo 2 Dragon God hadn't lied to him.
"Many of the authorities you possess have the potential of God Kings. As for reaching the Supreme God King level, it's not impossible, but a Supreme God King-level authority depends not only on the authority itself but also on how you cultivate it."
The Dragon God was still preparing to share some key points.
Sure enough, when he mentioned the cultivation of a Supreme God King's authority, Su Ming's attention became noticeably focused.
"So-called authorities are powers that exist in the world, a higher-level system formed by the mutual construction of pure law forces."
"Take life and destruction, for example. These two authorities exist in every plane and are widespread throughout the universe. They also have the potential for Supreme God Kings. Yet, no Supreme God King of these two paths has ever appeared, because to cross the God King realm and reach the Supreme level, the first requirement is transcendence."
Transcendence!
Speaking this word, the Dragon God's expression also became solemn, showing unusual respect for the term.
"Although you have some understanding of transcendence, it's only superficial."
"Transcendence refers not only to transcending oneself but also to the power one controls."
"Authority is included in this as well."
"If the authority cannot transcend, then no matter what, it cannot transform into a Supreme God King-level authority."
Su Ming's brow gradually furrowed.
What the Dragon God was saying already conflicted with the situation in Douluo 2.
He immediately raised a question.
"If one were to gather all the authorities within the universe, take over from the universe, and manage these authorities, would that also fail to reach the Supreme God King level?"
The Dragon God smiled. "If you have the ability, you can try. It's theoretically feasible. But in reality, the moment you can master an authority at that level, the act of mastering it is itself equivalent to causing that authority to transcend."
Su Ming frowned.
"Raising an authority to the Supreme God King level and then transcending it is far more difficult than transcending an authority first and then nurturing it to the Supreme God King level," the Dragon God said.
Su Ming's brow relaxed slightly.
Therefore, Electrolux's situation was special. His God Core could be considered to have transcended.
After all, the God Core connected to the plane and the universe's origin, gathering the universe's authority, but was itself controlled by Electrolux, equivalent to constantly bleeding the universe.
"You are currently tampering with the history of this node, aren't you?" the Dragon God raised a question Su Ming hadn't anticipated.
After a moment's pause, Su Ming nodded.
In this era, it had indeed been changed by him.
"You are already preparing for transcendence and planning to create a God Realm. I hope that when you create the God Realm, you can help me with something."
Su Ming frowned, staring at the Dragon God.
Talk halfway, then start negotiating terms, huh?
I was just getting interested.
"What favor?"
He wouldn't agree recklessly.
The Dragon God said, "Relax. It's not difficult. I need you to help me nurture the Spirit Beast clan."
Su Ming couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
Nurture the Spirit Beast clan?
"I have a rough understanding of the outside situation. The relationship between Douluo Star and the Abyss is very special. You also told Gu Yuena that you intend to develop the Abyss into something like the Myriad Beast Platform," the Dragon God said. Monarchs."
Su Ming stared at the Dragon God, pondering his intention.
"I won't hide it from you. I am looking for an opportunity to revive within the Spirit Beast clan. The Golden Dragon King's origin and the Silver Dragon King are both on Douluo Star. The stronger and more vigorous the Spirit Beast clan's luck, the more it can breed a reincarnated body suitable for me."
Su Ming nodded slowly.
He didn't believe the Dragon God.
But the Dragon God's explanation gave him a direction for thinking.
Either the Dragon God was preparing to use the proxy method, cultivating a Little Dragon God and another method of transcendence to further stabilize his Supreme seat.
Or, this Dragon God wanted to rely on a large number of Fierce Beasts to consume his tribulation.
The law of conservation of tribulations.
Tribulations only transfer from one place to another. They neither disappear nor appear out of nowhere.
In Douluo 2, Su Ming knew that the Dragon God probably bore a certain amount of tribulation debt, using its magnitude to judge historical changes.
Now, the Dragon God asking him to nurture Spirit Beasts was likely wanting Fierce Beasts to consume his tribulation for him.
"I agree. However, I will only not oppose it. Whether the Spirit Beast clan becomes part of the Abyss, whether it can fuse the cores of its layers and become Monarchs – I will not interfere."
