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

Chapter 297 Tang San Digs a Hole

The palace was heavily guarded, and entering during the day was clearly not a good idea; they could only wait until late at night to find an opportunity.

So, when it was late at night, he flew into the sky and, taking advantage of the darkness to avoid being seen, Tang San landed silently in the shadows.

"How can such a small guard post possibly defend against my Tang Clan disciples?" Tang San sneered, having already ascertained the guard's situation from the air.

Without lingering, they quietly approached the indicated direction and soon arrived at a heavily guarded building.

"This is probably the royal treasury." Looking at the guards stationed every five steps around him, Tang San couldn't help but guess.

"There might even be traps set up inside." Thinking of this, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

In such a heavily fortified location, the garrison is undoubtedly infiltrated with Soul Masters, whose hearing is exceptionally sharp; approaching silently from the ground would be extremely difficult. Crucially, there appears to be only one entrance, and even if one manages to get close, opening the treasure vault door without being detected is another problem.

Alternatively, we could spend more time infiltrating the area, figuring out the guards' schedules and rotation patterns, then find a way to obtain the key, and finally look for an opportunity to open the door and enter.

Alternatively, they could dig underground tunnels from hidden locations, a method commonly used by tomb raiders in the past.

He possesses a soul tool, which allows him to effectively move through the wasteland.

Alternatively, he could use poison to incapacitate all the guards in a short time. As for the treasure vault door, unless it was too intricate, he could easily break it open or smash it down. However, doing so would create a disturbance that would inevitably alert the outer guards, thus limiting his search time. And if he failed to find it within the time limit, he would be surrounded.

After much thought, Tang San decided to dig a tunnel.

Without hesitation, he turned around and went to a secluded spot to survey the terrain around the treasure vault.

Half an hour later, they finally found an artificial hill about 300 meters away. There were blind spots where the rocks met, and the surrounding vegetation could provide cover, making it a good starting point for digging. Without any hesitation, they immediately began digging.

He summoned his Blue Silver Grass martial spirit, controlling the thorny vines that extended and pierced the ground, stirring them downwards.

Not long after, a channel less than 1 meter in diameter and 20 meters deep appeared, with a lot of silt and water gushing out from the bottom.

"We've already reached the water; we can't go any deeper."

Frowning, Tang San jumped straight in and began controlling the vines to dig horizontally.

Stirring up the soil and gravel with vines wouldn't make any noise, since the vines he controlled were flexible enough that no stones would fall to the ground.

Even so, he still dared not do it during the day. Even at night, he had to rely on his mental power to perceive his surroundings at all times. With his current mental power strength, which was no less than that of a level 95 Title Douluo, he was able to perceive the movements of the outside world through a 20-meter layer of earth.

However, for Soul Masters below the Title Douluo level, this thickness of the stratum will serve as an excellent soundproofing layer.

Most importantly, even the emperor of the empire could not possibly, nor could he possibly, arrange for a titled Douluo to be in charge of keeping watch at night.

Using their senses to determine direction, they carried out the excavation work in an orderly manner, stopping as soon as they sensed any movement coming from above.

They dug for two whole days, and finally reached the bottom of the treasure vault on the third night.

Using his senses to pinpoint the location of the Heart of the Sea God, he dug straight up and found a thick layer of cement.

"No wonder my mental perception of the outside world has weakened since I arrived in this area." He frowned.

"But this is no challenge for me!" His Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, which already had eight spirit rings, was quite powerful.

He immediately controlled the vines to stir the cement layer upwards, and soon broke through.

Then, they discovered refined iron, a solid cast iron, quite thick, and their faces instantly darkened.

"Damn it!" He gritted his teeth immediately, then his mind raced and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

"Hmph, now that we've confirmed the location of the Heart of the Sea God, there's no need to hide anything anymore. It's still nighttime, which is perfect for our operation."

Thinking this, he controlled the vines to burrow to one side, and soon he was underground outside the treasure vault.

Without the slightest hesitation, it drilled straight up.

Shortly afterward, the ground began to tremble slightly and make a soft sound.

"Hmm?" This immediately alerted the guards, and the leader leaned down to listen closely.

Tang San also sensed it, and immediately a cold glint flashed in his eyes as his fifth soul skill lit up.

"Blue Silver Strangulation!" The vines in front of him suddenly accelerated their extension, twisting and pulling up the soil as they surged out.

With a "poof," a large hole appeared in the ground in the blink of an eye, and Tang San flew out.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" The surrounding guards shouted hurriedly, and then a giant hammer appeared in Tang San's hand.

"Get out of the way!" Tang San roared, his soul power overflowing, instantly killing the nearest guard.

"Tang San, it's Tang San!" The other guards immediately showed fear and dared not approach for a moment.

"Martial Soul True Body!" Tang San unhesitatingly unleashed his Martial Soul True Body, raising the Clear Sky Hammer high and frantically pouring his soul power into it, causing the Clear Sky Hammer to enlarge at a visible speed. In the blink of an eye, "Clear Sky Nine Absolutes, Pierce!" He swung the hammer out.

Although the royal treasury was well-constructed, it was ultimately no match for a powerful expert with the strength of a Title Douluo.

With a loud "boom," a large hole was instantly torn open in the wall.

Tang San flew straight in, smashing through walls as he went, and quickly arrived above the Heart of the Sea God. It was only then that he realized the Heart of the Sea God was hidden in a secret underground chamber forged from refined iron. With a thought, his terrifying spiritual power spread out, quickly locating the secret door, and he immediately struck with his hammer.

"Boom!" The nearly half-meter-thick iron hidden door dented on the spot, and a large opening was torn open at the edge.

"Bang!" Another hammer blow, and the opening was instantly widened to a size large enough to accommodate Tang San, who jumped in without hesitation.

Tap tap tap, the Ghostly Apparition was activated, and it quickly arrived at a small room deep in the dark chamber, which was filled with refined iron.

"Haotian Nine Absolutes, penetrate!" He swung the hammer directly at the keyhole, and miraculously broke the inner lock on the spot.

With a click, the door opened, and he slipped inside, grabbed the treasure box, and turned to leave.

They arrived at the outside of the treasury very quickly. From entering to exiting, only a few breaths had passed. The palace covered an area of ​​immense size, and the surrounding guards had not yet fully arrived.

But looking around, it was already crowded with people, including many Soul Masters who had awakened their Martial Souls.

"Attack!" A soft shout suddenly came from the side, followed by a surge of soul power in the air.

Tang San turned his head, a hint of surprise flashing across his face. "A battle formation that can gather the soul power of multiple people?"

However, he also understood that now was not the time to linger. Therefore, without any delay, he took off immediately.

"Puff puff puff" came a dense barrage of soul skills from behind.

"The Nine Absolute Techniques of Haotian, Shake!" But the intensity was not high. Tang San simply turned around and struck with his hammer, which dispersed them all and stirred up a strong air wave.

"Ahhh." Ordinary soldiers and low-level soul masters were no match for them. Several of them were struck hard and died on the spot.

The night was long, and in just a few blinks, Tang San's figure disappeared into the horizon.

Flames shot into the sky from the ground, and countless figures rapidly converged.

"Tang San, what a Tang San!" Upon receiving the news, the fake Xue Qinghe, who had already become emperor, was naturally furious.

"The fact that Tang San values ​​it so much means that the Vast Ocean Universe Cover must have some kind of connection with the gods. I should have secretly sent it back to Spirit City." He regretted it.

After all, it was a national treasure, so he hadn't dared to touch it before. Besides, it was just a soul tool, not some top-grade soul bone, and since the higher-ups hadn't asked any questions, he hadn't thought too much about it.

Without the slightest delay, they immediately sent people to deliver the message to both the Martial Soul Temple and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

The news spread from the imperial court the following morning, shaking the entire Heavenly Dou City. Naturally, it also incurred the wrath of the masses.

In the eyes of the subjects of the Heaven Dou Empire, having a fallen soul master sneak into the palace, smash the royal treasury, and steal the national treasure was tantamount to a declaration of war and was unforgivable.

"The fortune that had just eased is starting to slip away again." In the divine realm, the Sea God frowned.

In his eyes, Tang San's method of obtaining the Heart of the Sea God was indeed inappropriate, but there really wasn't a better way. After all, having been tricked and misled by Long Yingtian before, the Heaven Dou royal family already had a bad impression of Tang San, so asking the emperor for it would definitely not work.

"Oh well, who cares? If something really happens, let Shura and Evil deal with it."

The evil god had personally told him to rest assured and leave after passing on his divine position, and to keep his word!

Lost in thought, Tang San landed in a forest.

"Unable to insert a soul tool, what exactly is this Heart of the Sea God?" Filled with curiosity, Tang San opened the treasure box.

What catches the eye is a three-dimensional triangular crystal, its entire surface a clear, translucent blue, which is quite beautiful.

"A soul tool?" He looked surprised as he sensed the fluctuations of soul power emanating from the crystal before him.

After a moment's hesitation, he reached out and picked it up, infusing it with soul power.

Then the crystal burst forth with a dazzling blue light, floated up from the palm of my hand, and then whooshed towards my head.

Tang San's expression changed, and he subconsciously raised his hand to block.

But the blue light seemed to have no substance, passing directly through the arm and into the space between the eyebrows.

A flood of information rushed into his mind, startling Tang San, who was then overjoyed.

"It actually comes with four soul skills. This is simply a divine artifact, probably even more powerful than a 100,000-year-old wisdom soul bone."

As expected of the Heart of the Sea God!

The gloom vanished, and a smile appeared on her face.

"Next, I need to return to Seagod Island and find a way to hunt down soul beasts to add soul rings to the Clear Sky Hammer and reach level 90."

With a flash of his eyes and a quick step, he took off and flew straight towards Hanhai City.
