Douluo Continent: This Tang San is different

Chapter 440 The Battle Begins, the Divine Realm Takes Note

You're kidding me!

Xu Huang cursed inwardly, "I've never seen him before, how can he even name him? At the very least, I should have heard of him, right? This guy really doesn't take me seriously at all."

"Let's go, the battlefield isn't here."

Tang San soared into the air, stepping on the void, and flew away from the mainland.

Xu Huang gritted his teeth and, with the power of the Eternal and Creation God's Throne, also flew through the air, closely following behind Tang San.

flight?

He doesn't yet possess that ability.

"I never expected that the God of Divine Punishment would choose Tang San." Luo Qiu, who was hiding in the shadows, also sensed the aura of destruction the moment he saw the Clear Sky Hammer. He trembled all over. "It's unbelievable. But only someone as powerful as him can control the great Austin Griffin."

After traveling more than a hundred miles from the shore, Tang San stopped, looked around at the turbulent waters, and turned to Xu Huang, who was also standing in mid-air, saying, "I thought you were going to launch a sneak attack from behind."

"Ha, I'm not as despicable as you think," Xu Huang scoffed.

"Is that so? Is it that we can't do that, or is it that we can't?" Tang San slung the Clear Sky Hammer over his shoulder, a playful look on his face. "The virtue of the owner of the throne of the God of Eternity and Creation is truly noble; I am ashamed to admit my inferiority."

"However, I have something to remind you."

"You are not the creator god after all. To hold someone to the standards of the creator god and suppress the dark side of your heart is not a good thing. If it erupts later, it will be more dangerous than divine retribution."

Originally, Tang San still had some hope for the throne of the God of Eternity and Creation, but after learning more about this super artifact from Luo Qiu, he lost interest.

He's not some great and righteous figure, so gaining his approval would be difficult. The only way would be to defeat the weapon spirit and weapon soul and forcibly seize control of it.

This requires him to have a deep understanding and appreciation of the attribute of creation... The time spent on this is probably less cost-effective than crafting a similar Soul Imprint Throne himself.

When his life level reaches a level similar to that of the entire universe, the Soul Imprint Throne, imbued with his aura, will inevitably become a super artifact, or even surpass a super artifact.

After letting go of his attachment to eternity and the throne of the God of Creation, Tang San's thoughts became much clearer.

"To gain power, one must pay a price, it's unavoidable. It's just that some people pay with sweat, some with emotions, and some with freedom." Xu Huang's will was also incredibly firm, stating a fact bluntly: "No one can gain without effort. Even I, before becoming the emperor of the Sun Moon Empire, suffered a lot."

"Of all the transmigrators I've encountered, you're the easiest to deal with." Tang San also stated a fact: "The sublime creator god can look down on all living beings as ants, but he cannot turn a blind eye to ants."

"Enough talk, let's fight!"

Xu Huang held the Sun Shield in one hand and controlled the Moon Blade in the other, not intending to continue talking with Tang San, since the moon had already risen over the other side of the sea.

If we keep talking, it'll probably be dawn.

"I will bring your time-traveling journey to an end!"

call out!

In an instant, the moon blade spun and shot out, heading straight for Tang San's face. Its speed was so fast that it seemed capable of cutting through the air itself.

Tilting head, turning sideways.

Tang San dodged the attack with minimal movement, then turned to watch the moon blade slice through the sea, creating waves tens of meters high. He sighed, "It's really sharp, somewhat like the Moon Essence Wheel from 'The Legend of Shushan'..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Huang rushed in front of Tang San, his left forearm braced against the Sun Shield, and slammed it towards Tang San's face.

Boom!

Tang San flicked his left hand, and the Clear Sky Hammer collided with it, producing a loud booming sound. The moment they touched, Xu Huang was sent flying nearly a hundred meters before finally coming to a stop.

Xu Huang was shocked by the power of the Haotian Hammer.

The shield was humming, and his left arm was trembling. With just one strike, he was already at a disadvantage.

Even with neither side using their full strength, I, an 82-level Soul Douluo, am no match for an 79-level Soul Saint on the other side!

How did the other person cultivate?

Or is it that Austin Griffin's enhancement of Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer was really that outrageous?

Xu Huang's eyes narrowed as he stared intently at Tang San, but he did not make any further moves.

"What's wrong?" Tang San's lips curled up slightly, his head tilted to the side, and a silver crescent blade flew past his ear, landing beside Xu Huang and swirling around him. "You didn't think such a small trick could cut my head in half, did you?"

The existence of his primordial spirit allows Tang San to sense all changes in energy and matter within a thousand miles, but he does not activate it under normal circumstances.

After all, a large portion of that massive amount of information is irrelevant junk information, which is troublesome for the primordial spirit and brain to process.

The main function of [Tiandao] is not to deal with this kind of junk information.

Xu Huang did not answer. Blackish-purple scales appeared on his body, and a pair of dragon horns grew on his head. He exuded an aura of destruction.

Twin martial souls cannot be used simultaneously.

This means that the two martial souls cannot release skills at the same time, not that they cannot appear at the same time. After all, when a person with twin martial souls awakens their martial souls, both martial souls appear at the same time. It's just that a person with strong control can suppress the other one and present it to others.

The cultivation problem for those with twin martial souls lies only in the different attributes that the martial souls bring to the soul power, and the different requirements that different martial souls place on the human soul power circulation path.

Just like Bibi Dong, who can switch between two martial souls at will because she created a dual soul power meditation method, which allows her to freely switch between soul power attributes and soul power circulation routes.

Xu Huang, in front of him, probably couldn't think of that much, nor did he have any particularly advanced meditation techniques (compared to Bibi Dong's unimproved Soul Power Twin Meditation Technique). Instead, he relied on the effects of Eternity and the Throne of the God of Creation to forcibly prevent the two martial souls in his body from conflicting.

A pay-to-win player using cheats!

After being possessed by the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon Martial Soul, Xu Huang's soul power level did not increase, but his strength reached the level of a Soul Douluo close to level 85.

"The true form of the sun and moon!"

As the seventh spirit ring of the Sun and Moon Wheel lit up, Xu Huang's Sun Shield and Moon Blade floated above his head, transforming into a golden sun and a silver crescent moon.

The light of gold and silver shimmered and shone, covering an area of ​​several miles, reflecting the sea in gold and silver hues.

This is a domain-specific skill!

Tang San wasn't shocked at all. Instead, he curiously examined the area and noticed that the light of the sun and moon within it was being slowly absorbed by the Blue Silver Emperor within his body... It seemed that the other party didn't know that his martial soul could absorb the radiance of the sun and moon, which was a benefit to him.

How is my field?

A look of confidence appeared on Xu Huang's face.

Within this realm of the sun and moon, he can gain a 100% boost to all attributes, especially in terms of attack with the moon blade and defense with the sun shield, where he can gain a 200% boost!

Moreover, this is just a basic increase; his true strength lies in his ability to control time here!

The sun and moon revolve, and time flows by.

He controls everything!

That's all.

Tang San shrugged, yawned, raised the Clear Sky Hammer, aimed it at Xu Huang, and said, "Shatter."

Black lightning burst forth from the Haotian Hammer, like thousands of electric snakes darting about, instantly impacting the entire Sun and Moon Domain, causing cracks to appear around it, before exploding into countless golden and silver starlight that scattered across the sea illuminated by the full moon.

Even the strongest domain can be violently broken by Austin Griffin, who possesses the power of destruction. And the destructive attribute of the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon is nothing more than a drop in the ocean compared to the God of Divine Punishment.

Xu Huang, possessed by the Purple Emperor of Annihilation, began to tremble slightly from instinct. The power of destruction, which had reached its extreme, made his mind tremble.

Fortunately, with King Easton, the Holy Dragon, and the Eternal Angel comforting him, he calmed down and put away the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon Martial Soul.

"As expected of divine punishment, the boost my second martial soul provides is far less than the suppressive effect of your Clear Sky Hammer." As he spoke, thirteen dazzling eternal stars appeared around Xu Huang, transforming into a set of dazzling eternal armor that adhered to his body. Then, an eternal sword appeared in his hand.

"Looks like they're getting serious." Tang San smiled as he felt the divine power surging from his body and the invisible force pressing down on his heart.

Four black and three red soul rings interlocked in an instant, completing the fusion and floating behind him, forming a sacred blue-gold radiance. The Blue Silver Emperor True Body Armor was applied in an instant, and the aura of life and creation surged out, standing in perfect harmony with it.

The invisible collision of their powers, and because they both possess the attribute of "creation," they are bound to be compared in strength and gender.

"This power has already surpassed level 100!" Xu Huang frowned, not expecting Tang San to have such a powerful skill that could transform his Martial Soul into armor... Is this the Martial Soul True Body Armor from the comics?

Isn't this increase a bit too exaggerated?

"Soul power isn't necessarily inferior to divine power; as long as you improve its efficiency, it's fine." As if noticing Xu Huang's shock, Tang San gave him a special explanation. Then, the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand cracked, turning into pieces of armor that adhered to the Blue Silver Emperor True Body Armor, staining it with a dark purple hue.

Next, a purplish-black warhammer appeared on the left, even more exaggerated than the previous Haotian Hammer. There was a purplish-gray gem on the front of the hammerhead, and a circle of relief decorations resembling dragon heads on the side of the hammerhead. There were seven in total, and an eighth one was also faintly visible.

Austin Griffin could transform into a greatsword, but after residing within the Clear Sky Hammer, he gradually grew fond of the hammer's violence and changed his sword form to resemble the Clear Sky Hammer.

True violent aesthetics lie in the impact of a hammer blow to the flesh!

After the Purple Gold Nine Heavens Battle Armor was attached to the Blue Silver Emperor True Body Armor, the power of destruction and creation reached a balance, and the attributes of life and death rotated at the gem on his chest. His aura soared to the sky, dispelling the dark clouds of the moonlit night, and his god-level power was on full display.

At the same time, Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu of the Spirit Hall, Xue Qinghe of the Heaven Dou Empire, Tang Chen of the Clear Sky Sect, and Poseidon Island all sensed something and looked toward the location of Tang San and Xu Huang.

Qian Daoliu frowned deeply: "Has a god appeared?"

Xue Qinghe/Qian Renxue: "Is that you? Tang San, as expected, you also want to break through the limits of mortals. But I can sense that your actual strength hasn't reached that level yet. You must have unleashed power exceeding level 100 through your Martial Soul True Body Armor... The Emperor of the Sun Moon Empire actually allowed you to use such an ability?"

Tang Chen was undergoing his final divine trial, but he also sensed that divine power. The Asura God-King, who was presiding over the final trial, frowned, sending a wisp of divine thought to investigate the source of the divine power's outburst. He was slightly surprised: "Is that kid really not the 'illegitimate son' of Destruction and Life? To be able to unleash such power at merely the Soul Saint stage is a bit too much, isn't it? It has a huge impact on the mortal world… But he himself clearly hasn't reached the god-level, so I can't interfere too much… Oh well, this Tang Chen is passable. At worst, I'll just expend more divine power. Anyway, I'm not staying in the God Realm anymore. Let this successor serve those two 'pure-hearted' Supreme God-Kings and the husband-and-wife entity of Life and Destruction!"

At this moment, the first person in the God Realm to notice was the Sea God, after all, the battle between Tang San and Xu Huang was so close to the place of his legacy.

"Holy crap! These two guys are awesome!" Poseidon, the god of the sea, clearly observed the battle situation on the battlefield through the trident of Poseidon Island and with the help of the faith provided by all the creatures of the sea.

One possesses a power akin to creation; both the armor and weapons are of a divine quality, together forming a super artifact.

The other one is even more outrageous. He doesn't possess any divine artifacts, but through his special way of utilizing his spirit rings, he unleashes the energy contained within them, making his strength surpass that of a god.

That uniquely shaped hammer should be the artifact that his martial spirit transformed into when his strength was amplified to the god level.

"They are all excellent successors." Poseidon took a liking to Tang San. After all, Xu Huang was wearing divine armor and holding a divine sword, which meant that he had already been noticed by other gods. How could he possibly snatch him away?

As for the fact that Tang San and his divine position as the Sea God are not highly compatible... that's not a problem. As a god, what difficulty is there in changing a person's martial soul attribute?

Moreover, the ocean can nurture all things, which is creation; the ocean can also unleash tsunamis, submerging the land, which is destruction.

Their attributes match quite well!

It just depends on the situation. Even if Tang San doesn't accept his divine test, he can still break through to level 100. If he goes to him in person and is rejected, it will be awkward.

By the way, I heard from Shura that this guy is apparently the "illegitimate child" of Destruction and Life? He even refused their offer to pass on his position...

Forget it then, we'll look for it again later. Anyway, even if Shura passes on the divine position, he can't leave immediately before the successor ascends to the divine realm.

One day in the divine realm is equivalent to a hundred years in the mortal realm.

It seems that many exceptionally talented geniuses have emerged in the Douluo Continent in this era. I can keep searching and should be able to find a successor within a hundred years.

Even if he can't find him within a hundred years, that guy Shura will probably wait for him. After all, when you leave the God Realm to explore the universe, you need a companion, right?

now--

He'll just watch the show.

Meanwhile, the gods of good, evil, destruction, and life also took notice of the mortal realm, each sending a wisp of their divine consciousness to gather on Douluo Continent, presenting the scene on the sea.

"Another illegitimate child of yours." Evil still remembered Tang San quite well, and teased Destruction and Life, but this time, the two did not refute him.

After all, the Goddess of Life had truly recognized Tang San as her godson.

Kind eyes, however, fell on Xu Huang, and the question was asked, "That divine armor and divine sword, together, form a super artifact, right? Among the gods of the divine realm, besides us five great god-kings, who else possesses a super artifact?"

Destruction shook his head: "The God of Emotions who ascended not long ago possesses seven peerless divine swords. If counted as a set, they might have a chance to become super artifacts in the future, but that's a matter for the future."

Life hesitated and said, "Then we need to investigate thoroughly where this person got this set of divine artifacts from, and why he wanted to duel with Tang San, which seemed to be a life-or-death battle."

The evil figure suddenly asked, "You seem to be paying special attention to Tang San. Could he really be your son?"

Everyone present knew perfectly well that Tang San had nothing to do with life or destruction, so what was going on with his attitude towards life now?

Although he appears fair, he always considers Tang San's feelings.

Isn't this too biased towards Tang San?

"Not my biological son," Life said calmly.

"Oh~" Kindness drawled out the word. They weren't ignorant about relationships between humans; it was just that outsiders had a clearer perspective. "So you secretly went down to the mortal realm and adopted Tang San as your godson?"

The God of Life nodded: "Is there any rule in the divine realm that forbids this?"

Kindness said seriously, "Shall we add one now?"

The God of Life nodded again: "Okay, anyway, what I did before doesn't count."

Kindness sighed helplessly, her gaze returning to Xu Huang. She said, "We'll talk about this later. Next, let's take a good look at where this divine armor and sword came from, and which god was so extravagant that they even carry the aura of the creator god..."

Creator God!

Upon hearing this, the benevolent god paused for a moment, then realized what he meant, his eyes becoming incredibly serious: "A creator god from a different world not under the jurisdiction of the divine realm?"

The evil chuckled, "Interesting. I sense the malice in this person's heart, like a quagmire... Is the creator god of another world choosing a successor with such a twisted sense of humor?"

Destruction laughed too: "If this guy ascends to the God Realm, he should be able to reach the level of the Creator God, right? Although the Creator God cannot exist forever, during his reign, we will have another 'boss' above us."

Although the destruction was intentionally designed to guide the two supreme god-kings, it was indeed a question that both the good and the evil had to consider.

They don't want anyone standing above them and bullying them!

"Let's see what Tang San is capable of first. If he's no match for us, then we'll take action and seize the divine armor and sword. We'll share the insights into creation within them." The God of Kindness made his decision, then asked, "By the way, what about Shura? Could it be that he ran away before the divine position was even passed down?"

The evil one, who had not seen Shura, probed with his divine sense for a short while and said, "He is presiding over the divine succession ceremony at the place where he opened up the space passage connecting Douluo Continent and the God Realm. According to the time of the God Realm, it may take three or four days... The spiritual will of that successor is a bit weak, and the possibility of the succession failing is more than 50%."

"That's perfect. When he comes back, let him bring that creation artifact back with him." Kindness made the final decision.

The evil one nodded and said, "That's right, who told him to go down there?"

the other side.

Poseidon Island.

Offering Hall.

Of the four who sensed the divine power, Poseidon was the most shocked, because the location of Tang San and Xu Huang's battle was not far from Seagod Island, only about four hundred miles away.

"God has descended!" Poseidon stepped out of the Temple of Poseidon, gazing at the distant light shooting straight into the sky, her heart filled with awe. "Could it be that in this era, someone can still break through and become a god through their own power?"

"That's incredible!"

"Could it be Tang San, the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall?"

Seagod Island is far from the mainland, but it is not completely ignorant of land-based Soul Masters, after all, they also have their own fleet and can purchase supplies from the mainland.

During this process, some advanced life-related soul tools were naturally transported to Poseidon Island.

For example: soul-guided photography devices, soul-guided films, etc.

Poseidon also witnessed the entire process of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament through footage recorded by his Soul Guidance Photography Device.

But she never expected Tang San to be so outstanding—

He's not even twenty years old yet, is he?

However, one thing puzzled Poseidon: "Who was the person he was fighting?"

Inside the Papal Palace, Bibi Dong gazed in the direction of Xiaohai City, her spiritual energy spreading out to pinpoint Tang San's location. She was ready to traverse the thousands of miles to participate in that battle and deliver a fatal blow to the Sun Moon Emperor…

···

At this moment, the power of creation and destruction flowed through Tang San's body. With a slight tremor of his arms, the air around him vibrated, and an invisible wave pressed down on Xu Huang.

The core gem of Xu Huang's divine armor shimmered, releasing a nine-colored light to resist the pressure emanating from Tang San.

The collision between the two invisible forces caused the waves on the sea to freeze, making it resemble a piece of dark glass crystal.

From a higher and farther vantage point, one could see two invisible and intangible waves colliding, distorting the air, disrupting the airflow, and creating rolling waves beyond the sea area where the two were located.

"Disperse!" Xu Huang shouted, wielding the Eternal Sword to shatter the clash between the two opposing forces. He then pointed the sword at Tang San and said, "I acknowledge your strength, but unfortunately, you ultimately lack a divine weapon!"

Although Austin Griffin can transform into armor, after residing in and merging with Tang San's martial soul, he no longer has a true physical form, making him inferior to the Eternal and Creation God's Throne.

"A divine artifact?"

Tang San scoffed, subtly observing his surroundings with his primordial spirit. Sensing the presence of six more divine-level gazes nearby, he couldn't help but chuckle.

At least in the eyes of the people in the God Realm, he, a "native" of Douluo Continent, was much more approachable than Xu Huang, who controlled the super artifact of the creator god from another dimension.

Besides, the Goddess of Life is also his godmother!

In the world of business, whether you're a commoner or a nobleman, ultimately it all comes down to power and connections.

"Can you truly control that divine weapon, unable to communicate with its spirit? Can you unleash its true power?"
