In Douluo Continent, Tang San raids my base right from the start.

Chapter 278 Long Yingtian is truly a villain.

"Thump, thump."

Within the Dragon Realm, the three beasts crashed into a small bay, and Zhu Wu's figure appeared on the surface of the sea immediately afterward.

Now that his strength is limited, this is the size of the sea he can create.

"Where is this?" the Deep Sea Demon Whale King asked in surprise.

"This is my inner world, a small world independent of the outside world. You can call it the Dragon Realm," Zhu Wu said.

"Here, the divine realm cannot see in; it is very safe."

The three beasts were shocked. To create a small world within one's body—what incredible power that was!

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King quickly regained its senses, nodded its head slightly as it emerged from the water, and solemnly said, "Then let's begin."

"Okay." Zhu Wu nodded.

Without further hesitation, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King ordered his wife and daughters to step back and immediately initiated the sacrifice.

A dazzling red light burst forth, but it soon transformed into a pillar of light and entered Zhu Wu's body.

"What an incredibly powerful physique!" I was shocked.

"There's no need to condense a soul bone; focusing on solidifying the physical body is the priority," Zhu Wu's voice came.

"Alright," the Deep Sea Demon Whale King agreed, focusing on converting energy.

Zhu Wu closed his eyes, focusing on digestion. He channeled his spiritual energy into his upper dantian and his life essence into his middle dantian, forcefully compressing his spiritual and blood essence cores.

Elemental energy spreads around, further expanding the Dragon Realm, while excess energy is used to enhance soul power.

As time goes by, one can clearly feel that the strength of the physical body is increasing, and so is the divine consciousness within the spiritual core.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhu Wu suddenly felt his mind become clear, and his entire spiritual core turned into nine colors, dazzling and brilliant.

"So comfortable!" The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm felt a sense of comfort as its spiritual sea was illuminated by the nine-colored light, and couldn't help but groan.

The Evil Emperor was excited, as it could clearly feel its spiritual essence sublimating to another level.

Without a doubt, Zhu Wu's spiritual power had completely transformed into divine consciousness, and his soul had also sublimated into a divine soul. Those residing in the Sea of ​​Spirit were naturally affected and advanced towards a higher level.

It's only a matter of time before it transforms into a divine soul.

Snow Empress's beautiful eyes sparkled, and she was also delighted.

"We've finally taken this step." Zhu Wu was naturally happy.

Not only will his spiritual power undergo a transformation, but as expected, once the Deep Sea Demon Whale King has completed his sacrifice, his physical body will also ascend to a divine form. Of course, merely reaching the divine level in physical strength does not mean he possesses divine power, because he has not yet condensed a divine spark.

"So, what I need to do next is to continuously accumulate soul power, break through level 100 in one fell swoop, condense a godhood, and generate my own divine power."

"Compared to inheriting a godhood, becoming a god on your own is indeed more troublesome," he couldn't help but sigh.

He remembered that the rewards from the Divine Trial could directly increase one's soul power level—simple and straightforward.

Of course, Rakshasa is an exception; he's a black pit that drags things down.

Thinking this way, I continued to digest the energy.

About an hour later, the sacrifice was completely over.

Zhu Wu opened his eyes and glanced at his feet. The outermost spirit ring was pure gold, a symbol of a million-year spirit ring. The third spirit ring sacrificed by Tianmeng Ice Silkworm had also advanced to the million-year level, and although the other spirit rings had not, they had all reached the hundred-thousand-year level.

"This spirit ring will definitely attract attention when it shines!" he thought to himself.

"His soul power has increased to level 94. As expected of a million-year-old soul beast, and one that has accumulated power over many years." The original work clearly mentions that the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was only a hair's breadth away from becoming a god. Although it was impossible for him to cross that threshold, it was enough to prove his strength. The sacrifice of such a powerful being to him naturally brought about a huge boost. In particular, his physical body and spiritual power were directly raised to the god level.

With a thought, he withdrew his soul ring and turned to look at the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's wife and daughter. With a light wave of his hand, he summoned the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's soul.

"Brother Hai!" the wife of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King immediately called out softly.

The daughter beside him had not yet broken through the 100,000-year cultivation level and could not speak human language, so she could only chirp repeatedly.

"You should settle down here properly, and when the time is right, our family will be reunited," the Deep Sea Demon Whale King said.

After the sacrifice, he could clearly feel his soul undergoing some kind of sublimation; perhaps, he would soon be transformed into a divine soul. He now firmly believed Zhu Wu's earlier prediction of becoming a god within five years. Furthermore, he was extremely grateful that he had chosen to sacrifice himself.

"Yes, I will take good care of Lan'er." His wife nodded gently.

My daughter next to me nodded in agreement, looking like she would be a good girl.

"It won't be long." Zhu Wu turned to look at the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and smiled, "The divine soul can be active outside for a long time."

"You'll be here soon too. If you miss your wife and daughters, you can enter the Dragon Realm to reunite with them at any time."

"Thank you, Your Majesty," the Deep Sea Demon Whale King said respectfully.

This sacrifice and elevation also signifies his complete recognition of Zhu Wu's status.

Zhu Wu accepted it calmly. As the master of the Dragon Realm, there were some rules that had to be followed, otherwise things would get chaotic when there were more people.

"Alright, there's plenty of time later. I should head out now. We have more important things to do."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhu Wu then summoned the soul of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and vanished from the spot in a flash.

"Let's consolidate our strength before heading to Seagod Island." Upon arriving at the outer seabed, Zhu Wu fell into thought. Now that his cultivation had just been greatly enhanced, his aura was inevitably fluctuating, and he didn't want the Seagod to notice anything.

Lost in thought, I rushed straight out of the sea.

They found a small island nearby to settle down and summoned several women to cultivate together.

Seven days later, after taking the women into the Dragon Realm, Zhu Wu transformed into a seagull and flew directly to Seagod Island.

We arrived in a few hours. It was afternoon, the sun was shining brightly, the sea breeze was cool, and the clouds were drifting across the sky.

"They really came." Arriving at the foot of Poseidon Mountain, looking down, they saw Tang San being pushed out of the water by two 50,000-year-old demon soul great white sharks.

With a "plop!" he landed on the shore, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, looking quite disheveled.

"What a sorry sight!" Zhu Wu quipped as he landed and returned to human form.

"Long Yingtian!" Tang San's expression changed drastically, his body instinctively rising to a fighting stance. The next second, remembering that this was Seagod Island, and that Long Yingtian's purpose in coming was most likely also to inherit the Seagod's position, he immediately straightened his back and sneered, "Long Yingtian, you've also come to participate in the Seagod's assessment, haven't you? Too bad, you're too late!"

"The Sea God has chosen me."

Long Yingtian remained expressionless, his gaze fixed on Tang San's back, where a streak of light was flying straight towards them.

"She is indeed a beauty beyond compare. No wonder Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu couldn't help but pursue her back then." She nodded slightly in her evaluation.

Poseidon, still flying in mid-air, frowned slightly. The person who could arrive here so quietly was definitely not simple.

Regardless of the circumstances, trespassing on Poseidon Island is already an offense against the Sea God.

Tang San thought to himself, "So Senior Poseidon and my great-grandfather had such a past. No wonder they've been taking such good care of me lately." Suddenly, an idea came to him.

He immediately turned to look at Poseidon, gritting his teeth and saying with grief and indignation, "Senior Poseidon, this man is named Long Yingtian. He once sent people to slaughter my entire Haotian Sect. He is a truly wicked and treacherous villain. Now he has trespassed on Seagod Island. We must not let him go, otherwise he will surely bring immeasurable crisis to Seagod Island in the future."
