Douluo Continent: This Tang San is different

Chapter 444 Xu Huang's Rebirth—

As they approached the coastline, Tang San had recovered his strength. His formidable physique astonished Luo Qiu, who then said, "You don't need to worry too much about me. Although the Eternal God's Seal and Throne of Creation have left this plane, didn't you take away six Eternal Stars?"

The throne of the God of Eternity and Creation can be transformed into thirteen eternal stars. Each one is a gateway and key to the Eternal Realm. As long as you possess them and find the right method, you can enter it.

Judging from Luo Qiu's perception, the Lord of Eternity does not dislike Tang San and should allow him to enter and undergo the corresponding test.

Whether it's to suppress Austin Griffin or to reclaim the six Eternal Stars from Tang San, the Lord of Eternity will not simply leave.

Tang San was somewhat surprised by this, but considering that the Moonlit Elf race had existed in the Eternal Domain for countless years, it was understandable that Luo Qiu, the Moonlit Queen, would know more.

"The Emperor of the Sun Moon Empire has disappeared. Won't the Sun Moon Army in Xiaohai City, and even the Sun Moon Empire itself, be in turmoil?" Tang San got down to business. "When you return to Xiaohai City, you can cooperate with us for a coordinated attack from within and without, how about that?"

"How could I dare not agree?" Luo Qiu stretched and rolled his eyes, then corrected, "You can indeed take back Xiaohai City, but with the internal strife in the Sun Moon Empire, things might be different."

"Xu Huang has more than just me as a concubine. His two empresses have two daughters who are now six years old."

Tang San raised an eyebrow: "A pair of empresses? Two?"

"Hmm." Luo Qiu nodded. "Moreover, those two are at level ninety-eight, two of the four level ninety-eight individuals in the Sun Moon Empire. They reached level ninety-eight only after being brought into the Eternal Domain by Xu Huang for cultivation."

"Their martial spirits are the sun and the moon, respectively."

"I heard she's his cousin."

cousin?

Close relatives by blood.

Tang San slowly said, "At least for a while, we don't need to worry about Douluo Continent... Speaking of which, Xu Huang's heart is shattered; he probably won't survive, right?"

"If the throne of Eternity and the God of Creation remains intact, he might still have a chance of survival," Luo Qiu said confidently.

Tang San remained noncommittal, but recalled the moment he delivered the final blow to Xu Huang. A wisp of destructive power had been injected into Xu Huang's heart, causing it to collapse. However, that wisp of destructive power seemed not to have dissipated afterward; instead, it had invaded Xu Huang's brain and hidden away...

Similarly, Austin Griffin, realizing that Tang San had become wary of him, said, "I haven't forgotten our agreement. I'll naturally use any means I can. You can take that guy as a challenge for me."

Tang San smiled at Austin Griffin's sincerity, which meant that the other party had at least recognized him and was beginning to truly accept him.

"Hmph! Don't flatter yourself!"

Seeing the undisguised amusement on Tang San's primordial spirit's face, Austin Griffin's twisted will turned its seven heads and snorted coldly, "It's just that due to the oath to the will of the universe, I need to say it more directly. Of course, if you don't ask, I can choose not to say. That's all!"

"Alright, but I'm more curious about how you managed to revive Xu Huang using that wisp of destructive power?" Tang San was quite curious, since destructive power has no ability to repair itself; it would be good enough if it didn't blow Xu Huang's brain to mush.

"That's my secret." Austin Griffin didn't answer, but his proud little eyes conveyed one thing: Who says the God of Wrath can't have healing abilities?

With so many heads, each with different attributes, they can still combine to become a master healer!

He is simply most skilled at and most fond of destruction.

Then, Austin Griffin disappeared, and the seven heads regained their original will, running happily to Tang San's primordial spirit and rubbing against it incessantly.

Tang San played with Jiu Hao for a while, then returned to his body and sent Luo Qiu back to Xiaohai City.

Xiao Wu, Guang Ling, Ning Rongrong, and Huo Wu arrived on Tang San's way back to Hunhai City. After hearing his description of the battle, they felt a wave of fear.

Unexpectedly, even the Asura God descended to earth at the very last moment!

"The Creator God couldn't defeat the Asura God?" Huo Wu asked, puzzled. "Is it because Xu Huang is too weak?"

"No, it's because the Creator God is dead, just a remnant soul. Even with the help of a super artifact, he's no match for a God-King level expert." Tang San explained the classification of gods to Xiao Wu and the others. "Gods are similar to Soul Masters, with different focuses in terms of abilities, but their corresponding realms can be roughly divided into Divine Officials, Third-Level Gods, Second-Level Gods, First-Level Gods, God-Kings, and finally, the Creator God."

Tang San attributed his knowledge of these things to his acquisition of six Eternal Stars. Through these six Eternal Stars, Tang San was indeed able to sense the dimensional passage between the God Realm and Douluo Star, thus allowing him to investigate some aspects of the God Realm.

"For us, becoming a Title Douluo is not the end, nor is breaking through level 100."

"Therefore, we cannot relax our vigilance because of our current achievements. We still need to be mindful of potential dangers even in times of peace. The universe is so vast, unknown and mysterious. Only by constantly moving forward and exploring the unknown can we make continuous progress and truly take control of our own destiny."

All four women nodded vigorously.

God.

What once seemed so distant to them now appears to be only a matter of time. Only by constantly improving themselves and truly transcending the mundane can they witness a broader panorama.

Back in Soul Sea City, Tang San told Ge Long that he had defeated Xu Huang, but didn't say whether Xu Huang was alive or dead. After all, in the unknown future, in what form he might appear, he would inevitably become Austin Griffin's representative and challenge him...

···

The dark, deep space was filled with resentment, hatred, and bitterness, but at this moment, a sacred light suddenly appeared.

As the light faded, a completely black throne appeared, upon which sat a figure with a broken heart.

The throne's tall backrest was ancient and dignified, exuding a sense of grandeur. It was engraved with the sun, moon, stars, flowers, birds, fish, insects, and various plants. Although it looked intricate, it appeared somewhat chaotic, and some patterns even seemed to be missing parts, making them look less realistic.

"Who goes there? How dare you trespass into the domain of the Lord of the Underworld!" A formless entity composed of black mist arrived before the Throne of Eternity and Creation, scanning it with near-divine divine sense. Overjoyed, it exclaimed, "It's a divine artifact! And this body... perfect! It will grant me a true physical body!"

The dark gray cloud of gas transformed into a heart and entered Xu Huang's ruptured chest.

The instant the connection with his blood vessels was established, an extremely destructive force erupted, instantly shattering the will of the Lord of the Underworld and merging it with Xu Huang's own soul, but still dominated by Xu Huang's own will.

Austin Griffin's wisp of destructive power only protected Xu Huang's soul, while the will of the Lord of the Underworld was completely devoured and absorbed by Xu Huang.

The Throne of Eternity and Creation sensed Xu Huang's change of heart, immediately severed its already faint connection with him, broke through space, and went to other planes.

When Xu Huang reopened his eyes, they were now completely black. All the negative emotions he had suppressed after obtaining the throne of the God of Eternity and Creation erupted at this moment.

Because he was in the Netherworld, countless evil energies, resentments, hatred and other filthy forces converged towards his heart in his chest, constantly increasing his strength until he reached the peak of level ninety-nine, only one step away from level one hundred.

To use a more apt analogy, he's a near-god.

"I never thought I'd still be alive, hehe, hahaha!" Xu Huang sensed his own strength, threw his head back and laughed, causing the entire Netherworld space to tremble. "Long Haochen has the Heart of Eternity, and I'm not bad either, I have the Heart of the Netherworld transformed from the Lord of the Netherworld... Although I don't know why his will dissipated, but—"

"I now have the strength to avenge myself against Tang San!"

"No···"

"We must be cautious. The Throne of Eternity and Creation has already abandoned me. Tang San can unleash god-level power, so I can't be careless. I must grow stronger first, and I can't attract the attention of the God Realm."

"This is the world of 'Heavenly Jewel Change'... I haven't read it, but Zhou Weiqing follows the path of a useless character, and with Tang San's current abilities, he would never let the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's pearl escape. Zhou Weiqing will always be a useless character, but as the protagonist, he must possess luck. I need to use him, slowly influencing his mind with the Netherworld Qi, and turning him into my clone—"

"To be an old man who is also the mastermind behind everything!"
