Douluo Continent II: The Dragon Breaks the Nine Heavens

Chapter 417 The Secret History: The Asura's Judgment Codex

While Lin Yun was planning his culinary adventure at sea, the Douluo Continent was once again shaken.

Of course, the cause of this tremor was also Lin Yun.

Long before Tang San unleashed his divine power, instantly killing Du Busi, severely injuring Jing Hongchen, and defeating Zhongli Wu, causing great losses to these three forces, Lin Yun was already planning something else.

Tang San's divine sense did not conceal his identity, and with such heavy casualties among the three major forces, this news could not be kept secret and would eventually be exposed.

Here's where another problem arises.

So... why is Lin Yun constantly criticizing Shrek Academy and Tang San in Douluo Continent?

The answer is naturally to sever Tang San's faith in Douluo Continent and weaken his godhood. Although it may not be immediately apparent, when everyone in Douluo Continent begins to hate Tang San, the Sea God's position he built on the foundation of the Douluo people's faith will naturally suffer a backlash!

You should know that faith can be poisonous!

If you can collect their faith, then along this path, their resentment and hatred will also be instilled in you without reservation.

Then, it will be time to reap the bitter fruits of our labor.

Given Tang San's incredible prowess, what would happen once his fame spreads again across Douluo Continent, and the 'miracles' he displayed during the Golden Tree conflict were heard about by the foolish people of Douluo Continent again? Even Lin Yun couldn't quite predict the outcome.

Will they become even more hostile towards Tang San, or will they start to believe in him again because of Tang San's miraculous appearance?

This kind of half-and-half, gambling-like thing is what Lin Yun has always hated the most.

After all, when that Buddha was resorting to underhanded tactics, his favorite thing to do was make bets with others. If he could beat them, it meant they were already courting death; if he couldn't, it was a challenge: "Do you dare make a bet with me?"

Nine out of ten gamblers lose; betting is the most foolish thing to do.

Therefore, Lin Yun chose to take control of everything. Since he couldn't be sure what would happen if he let the matter fester, he would take the initiative to control the course of the matter and let it develop according to his wishes!

Since there's no way to hide the fact that Tang San has reappeared, let's just make it more straightforward and add fuel to the fire!

So, after the battle ended and the remnants of the three forces returned to their respective hometowns to report the tragic results, the entire Douluo Continent was once again abuzz with various major news stories.

As for who did all of this, it must be our 'mysterious bookseller', the Demon King!

The first news to spread was that the leaders of the three factions—Soul Masters, Soul Instructors, and Evil Soul Masters—were killed, injured, and forced to flee by Tang San's divine sense during the struggle for the Golden Tree. Of the more than twenty Title Douluos from the three factions, only one-third managed to escape.

With the embellishment of the Demon King, the rumor that Tang San seized the Golden Tree, a treasure representing the source of life, to cultivate the Shrek Academy members and harvest their faith was completely confirmed.

The mask of "brightness, majesty, purity and innocence" that Tang Sanshu wrote about in history has been completely torn off, replaced by a selfish and evil farm owner who treats Douluo Continent as a breeding ground for profit.

If you, Tang San, weren't after the Golden Tree, why did you leave your divine thoughts on it even though you've been ascended for ten thousand years?

Since you, Tang San, weren't after the Golden Tree, why did you attack the Soul Masters of those three factions? Shrek Academy is destroyed, and the Golden Tree is now ownerless. As the top forces in the Soul Master world, is there anything wrong with them vying for the Golden Tree?

no problem!

The only reason you attacked them is that you still want to continue to dominate the Golden Tree, and continue to treat the people of Douluo Continent as vegetables in a garden and pigs in a farm, wanting to continue to harvest them!

The inherently evil Sea God Tang San, I will personally...

Tell more people about your evil deeds!

Not only that, the Golden Tree, which Lin Yun had originally packed up and taken away, was once again pinned on Tang San's head, making him take the blame for something huge and unjust.

The Demon King stated that after Tang San, the Sea God, killed and repelled all the Title Douluos from the three forces, he transplanted the Golden Tree to the Clear Sky Sect to ensure that it would serve the Tang family forever.

The foolish masses of Douluo Continent: Okay, I believe you!

Yeah, I actually believe it!

Without a single doubt!

Even though there are so many people in Douluo Continent, even if 99% of them are idiots, there are still a few normal people, plus a tiny, insignificant number of smart people. Logically speaking, they shouldn't be so easily fooled by the Demon King.

There was nothing they could do; Lin Yun's elaborate and intricate schemes were simply too clever!

First, Xuanzi escaped from prison and caused a huge disturbance at Shrek Academy. Then, Lin Yun took advantage of this opportunity to launch a ten-shot barrage of level nine rockets, which completely destroyed Shrek Academy.

Following the book "The Source of Life," he directly turned the Mingde Hall of the Body Sect and the Holy Spirit Cult into his henchmen, consuming the divine thoughts left by Tang San in the Golden Tree for him, and then secretly taking the Golden Tree away after the battle.

If these clueless Douluo Continent people could see through this smooth and effortless operation, then this world wouldn't be called Douluo Continent at all!

So Lin Yun, with a three-point leap, firmly pinned the blame on Tang San's head.

Moreover, these "solid evidences" alone are not enough to create an anti-Tang San craze. You know, people have tendencies. Taking advantage of the current popularity of the Golden Tree topic, Lin Yun dropped another bombshell.

In the Douluo Continent today, if an internet platform were created, any topic containing the name "Tang San" would undoubtedly top the trending search list, and any discussion about Tang San would attract tremendous attention.

Not to mention the pen name "Qingye," which already had a following in the Douluo Continent, and its signature unofficial history style books!

Upon its release, the book instantly garnered widespread attention in the Douluo Continent, and its popularity spread rapidly across the entire continent and to every city of the four great empires, much like a locust plague.

Even five-star book critic MacArthur couldn't help but comment: "If my readers could see this book, 'The Asura's Judgment,' they would never be able to read any other novel again."

Without further ado, let's open this book, "The Asura's Judgment Codex," and take a look at the secret history within!
