Solo Leveling: The Divine Triad (narrative)

Chapter 179: The Evolution of Power and the Rise of Independence

Sung Jin-Woo, as the God of Shadows and Life and the God of Creation and Abundance, made a monumental decision to reclaim the fraction of power he had granted to his grandchildren, Sung Ye-Jun and Sung Ye-Rin, the Lesser Divine: Duo Dragons. This marked a turning point in their journey, emphasizing independence and self-growth.

1. Sung Jin-Woo's Withdrawal of Power

Sung Jin-Woo withdrew the 0.00000001% of his divine power that he had previously bestowed upon the Duo Dragons.

While the fraction of divine power was taken back, the Duo Dragons retained the ability to create, a divine gift that could only be given by a god.

Sung Jin-Woo aimed to challenge his grandchildren, fostering their independence and encouraging them to rely on their own potential.

The Duo Dragons' growth in their inner worlds and their clones' victories demonstrated that they no longer needed external power to achieve greatness.

2. The Duo Dragons' Inner Strength

With only their original bodies' power remaining, the Duo Dragons embraced their own innate strength.

Their mastery over their three hearts—original heart, dragon heart, and second dragon heart—became the cornerstone of their abilities.

Time Dilation: Their inner worlds continued to grow exponentially, with time dilation allowing for rapid development and evolution.

Forces Within: Each layer of their inner worlds now housed formidable armies and vast resources, further amplifying their strength.

The Duo Dragons' clones, empowered by their strategic growth and resourcefulness, achieved significant victories across the multiverse:

Engaged in battles within the Abyss, subduing powerful foes and asserting their dominance.

Secured alliances with otherworldly entities, furthering their influence.

Stationed at the Palace of the Divine Legacy, they served as guardians and strategists, maintaining the stability of the Sung Dynasty.

Disguised as S-Rank hunters on Earth, they safeguarded humanity from emerging threats while cultivating new talents.

From his throne in the Umbra Citadel, Sung Jin-Woo observed the progress of his grandchildren. Though he had reclaimed his power, he recognized their potential and celebrated their achievements.

"Power is not just bestowed; it is earned and nurtured. Let the Duo Dragons rise on their own, for they carry within them the strength to surpass even the greatest of challenges."

Sung Ye-Jun and Sung Ye-Rin accepted the withdrawal of power with grace, understanding the wisdom behind their grandfather's decision.

They focused on enhancing their natural abilities and leading their forces with renewed determination.

Their clones and inner worlds continued to thrive, ensuring that their legacy would endure.

The Duo Dragons solidified their reputation as powerful, independent deities within the multiverse.

The Divine Triad, led by Sung Jin-Woo, had laid the foundation for a multiverse where independence, growth, and creation flourished. The Duo Dragons, as heirs to this legacy, now stood as shining examples of what could be achieved through perseverance and self-reliance.

The multiverse watched as Sung Ye-Jun and Sung Ye-Rin embraced their new path, their divine light shining as brightly as ever.
