Chapter 258 Major Defeat

The war in Xilu City was originally a sudden war between two great empires and the Spirit Empire, but it was disrupted by Tang San and the Shrek Four Monsters, which destroyed the original stability.

Therefore, the story ended with Tang San's death and the Shrek Academy members paying a heavy price.

Among them, Ning Rongrong, the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, was the most heartbroken because Xiao Ao, who had always followed her around, had died and left her forever.

She cried her heart out, half of it for Tang San, but mostly for Oscar.

Chen Xuan, the culprit, not only escaped punishment but also went unpunished, escaping the pursuit of the Heavenly Battle Army and the Sea God.

"Alas!" Poseidon sighed heavily. Even as a god high above, he looked somewhat dejected and his face was not very good.

After waiting for over a thousand years, the most suitable successor to him finally appeared. He thought he could finally entrust the position of Sea God to someone else, but today, his successor, Tang San, has died tragically here. Fate is cruel.

Poseidon beckoned, retrieved the golden trident, and put it away. He sighed, with a hint of helplessness and frustration.

He truly never expected that a mere native, who hadn't cultivated to become a Title Douluo, could actually escape after being hit by the Unpredictable Storm. He simply couldn't believe it, but it was the truth.

The sea god's emotions were hard to calm. After nearly a thousand years of countless battles, no one had ever broken free from the strongest control technique, Unpredictable Storm, yet today it had been broken by a mere human.

This local was incredibly arrogant. He killed Tang San right in front of him, which was a blatant provocation, a challenge to divine power, and a violation of his bottom line.

Poseidon's face was grim, his heart filled with murderous intent, yet he had nowhere to vent it!

If it weren't for the divine realm's rule against easily interfering in the affairs of the mainland, his true form would have already descended and directly killed the native Chen Xuan.

"Lord Poseidon, what should we do next?" At this moment, Bai Chenxiang stepped forward and respectfully asked Poseidon for his opinion.

Now Dai Mubai has lost an arm, Oscar has been cut in half at the waist, and their soul, Tang San, is gone, leaving behind only two pieces of charred remains after being struck by lightning, a truly tragic end.

This time, in the Shrek casualty report, only she and Ma Hongjun were unharmed.

Poseidon, the god of the sea, looked around solemnly. After several great battles, the city was ravaged and engulfed in flames, with hardly a single intact building to be found.

The armies of Tiandou and Xingluo moved swiftly; by this time, they had already cleaned up the battlefield and were preparing to leave Xilu City.

After this commotion, the Spirit Empire had no intention of fighting again and quietly retreated with the heavily injured Demon-Slaying Douluo.

Poseidon sighed softly, looked at Dai Mubai and Bai Chenxiang, and said, "Pick up your arm and go to Poseidon Island. There are people there who can help you recover."

The Avalanche Emperor informed him that he had already retrieved the arm for Dai Mubai, but it had fallen into a fire and was burned beyond recognition, so he didn't know if it could still be used.

"It's alright, we can just find a suitable soul bone." Poseidon waved his hand, these were not problems.

Xue Beng looked sadly at the dead Tang San and asked, "Lord Sea God, is there any possibility that Teacher will be resurrected?"

Upon hearing this, the others all looked at the sea god with expectant eyes.

Poseidon shook his head, sighed, and said, "If Tang San had only had his heart destroyed, I would still have a way to revive him. But in the current situation, even with the help of the Nine-Colored Goddess and the God of Food, the chances of him being revived are less than 10%."

Upon hearing this, everyone's spirits plummeted, and they all fell silent.

All of this was caused by the villain Chen Xuan. How ruthless he was! Back then, he snapped Tang San's neck, and Tang San was already dead, but he still didn't stop. First, he took out Tang San's heart and crushed it, and then he destroyed Tang San's physical body, cutting off all possibility of resurrection. His methods were so vicious.

"First, collect Tang San's body and take it to Seagod Island to hand it over to High Priest Poseidon. At that time, I will personally guide him to the God Realm in my true form, and then discuss it with the gods." The Seagod spoke, now in energy form and about to dissipate.

The only saving grace was that Tang San obtained a small portion of his divine power, and part of his soul evolved to the Divine Soul stage. At this level, it's not so easy to die; even if the physical body is destroyed, the Divine Soul won't immediately dissipate.

Although that little native had many abilities, he lacked the means to attack the soul, which is what the sea god meant when he said that all beings below the gods are ants.

No matter how high this person's combat power is, it is impossible to kill a complete god. A powerful god can regenerate even if his physical body is destroyed. This is the gap, a chasm that a soul master can never cross.

Poseidon shook his head. He began to doubt himself and lowered the standards of the divine test. Tang San barely passed the first eight tests, which was far from the expected result.

"Could it be that I really chose the wrong person?"

The sea god sighed, and his enormous body suddenly disintegrated, turning into countless particles of energy light that scattered between heaven and earth.

The Vast Ocean Universe Cover glowed, radiating a brilliance that enveloped Ma Hongjun, Bai Chenxiang, Ning Rongrong, and the others. Then, it soared into the sky, flying rapidly towards the distant Sea God Island.

Although Avalanche wanted to go along, as the emperor of Tiandou, he was powerless to do so due to the upcoming war.

Under his leadership, the Heavenly Dou army began to withdraw, leaving the small town and returning to the Heavenly Dou Empire.

In contrast, the emperor of Xingluo was more astute. Under the cover of his soldiers, he fled Xilu City at the first sign of danger.

Thus, this battle ended with heavy casualties for both the Heavenly Dou and Star Luo Empires, and the defeat of the Martial Soul Empire, with no victors.

……

On the other side, when Chen Xuan left Xilu City, the aura around him reached its end, and his remaining divine power was exhausted, so it dissipated on its own.

He didn't turn back, but left directly, disappearing from the spot on his Flying Thunder God.

This battle had taken a toll on him, and he was exhausted with little strength left. Moreover, in his current state, he was not confident of defeating the Sea God.

Previously, he forcibly broke through six times the speed of sound. The speed was too violent, which caused him some damage. His flesh was torn and there were several cuts in various parts of his body.

Facing a being like Poseidon who could take on a god-king in one-on-one combat, Chen Xuan dared not be careless and naturally went all out. He could not guarantee that he would not be intercepted by the opponent at five times the speed of sound.

Those beings who have lived for thousands of years possess an unimaginable level of combat awareness; they can predict the moment someone makes a move.

However, the outcome remained unchanged. Tang San was killed by him and died completely. With his physical body destroyed, the possibility of resurrection was eliminated.

Several hours later, the sun set in the west, the horizon was bathed in crimson, and night gradually fell...

That evening, Chen Xuan, who was not yet in the small town under Qian Renxue's command, chose the nearest town to sit down and take the opportunity to recover.

He entered the world behind his heart, and nourished by the fruit trees, his injuries quickly healed completely. The cracks on his arms and thighs disappeared without leaving any scars.

Originally, Chen Xuan wanted to use the Rinnegan's eye technique, a powerful recovery technique, but this ability has limitations; it requires absorbing life energy as a source for activation.

"It seems we really need to find a way to get some magical herbs."

In the following days, Chen Xuan rested quietly in the town for a few days before heading back to the small city under Qian Renxue's command.
