In Douluo Continent, he tricked Xiao Wu into giving him a soul ring.

"The strong prey on the weak. Now that things have come to this, do I still have a choice?" Feeling his life force rapidly draining away, the demon spoke softly, a glimmer of hope suddenly igniting in his eyes.

"Alright, then you can sacrifice your soul and everything you have to my wife. After she becomes a god, she will resurrect you," Lan Ji said calmly.

Chapter 380 Demon Soul Great White Shark King

The Demon Orca King has made a sacrifice.

In the most domineering way, it sacrificed itself to Zhu Zhuqing, providing her with a 100,000-year-old ninth soul ring and a 100,000-year-old demonic tiger whale king's left leg bone, filling the last gap in Zhu Zhuqing's soul bone.

This caused Zhu Zhuqing's soul power to soar to level ninety-three.

It had no choice; without sacrifice, it would only face certain death, while sacrifice offered a glimmer of hope for survival.

Before its death, Lan Ji allowed it to bid a final farewell to its people. Ultimately, its soul was hidden within the left leg bone of Zhu Zhuqing's 100,000-year-old demonic orca king, falling into a deep slumber.

"Aji, I succeeded! My soul power has reached level ninety-three." The moment the sacrifice was completed, Zhu Zhuqing rushed into Lan Ji's arms.

Even with her composed personality, she couldn't help but feel excited. Level 93! That's level 93! In the past, titled Douluo were unattainable figures in her eyes, and she could hardly reach this level even if she spent her whole life trying. Now, at the age of 23, she had actually reached the top of the titled Douluo realm. How could she not be excited?

"Congratulations on your Zhuqing." ×2

Lan Ji gently stroked Zhu Zhuqing's back, while Ye Lengleng also offered her congratulations.

"Hehe..." In front of Lan Ji and Ye Lengleng, Zhu Zhuqing completely shed her usual coldness. Her face was no longer protective, and her narrow, beautiful eyes curved into two shallow crescent moons as she smiled and said, "Aji, are you ready to choose a 100,000-year-old soul beast for Lengleng? I can't wait to test my current strength."

"If we want to make a move, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, but this time we need to finish this quickly, otherwise we might encounter some insignificant trouble..." Lan Ji gazed towards the direction of Seagod Island. The Demon Soul Great White Shark King was the ninth soul ring that Lan Ji and Wei Ye had prepared in a cold and ruthless manner.

...Outside Poseidon Island, in the Great White Shark Sea.

"The aura of the Evil Tiger has actually disappeared?" At the moment the Evil Tiger Whale King made its sacrifice, the Demon Soul Great White Shark King looked at the Evil Tiger Whale Sea in horror. Could it be that deep-sea demon whale king?

It's not impossible.

In his mind, only the Deep Sea Demon Whale King could kill the Demon Orca King, who had many clans.

"It seems I must report to Lord Poseidon." With that thought in mind, the Demon Soul Great White Shark Dynasty sped off towards the land of the Sea God.

Just as the Demon Soul Great White Shark King was about to approach the land, a bright light suddenly appeared in front of it. Before it could react, the light transformed into a giant net hundreds of meters in diameter, enveloping its entire massive body.

"What...what is this thing...?" The Demon Soul Great White Shark King was horrified. It tried to break free, but found that the giant net was rapidly devouring its soul power and contained extremely potent toxins. Within this giant net, it couldn't muster much strength at all. Its resistance gradually weakened.

A black hole suddenly opened, and several iron chains with golden flames rising from their surfaces shot out from within, pulling its entire massive body into it.

Before being dragged into the black hole, the Demon Soul Great White Shark King still cried out in his heart, "Lord Sea God, from now on, Little White can no longer protect Sea God Island for you..."

Finally, he slowly closed his eyes, fainted, and lost consciousness.

Sensing the commotion, the Demon Soul Great White Shark clan knew their king was in danger. They immediately went to warn the residents of Seagod Island and rushed to his aid. However, by the time they arrived, the Demon Soul Great White Shark king had vanished without a trace.

......

Douluo Continent, Martial Soul City.

Looking at the Demon Soul Great White Shark King, bound by the Soul-Devouring Spider Web and tied up like a dumpling by the Azure Lotus Heart-Slaying Chain, hanging in mid-air, Lan Ji couldn't help but sigh, "These two soul skills are simply the nemesis of sea soul beasts; they can almost kill them one by one."

"That's because you're too strong. Even if sea spirit beasts are stronger than land spirit masters in the sea, which 100,000-year spirit beast can withstand two 100,000-year control spirit skills from a Limit Douluo?" Zhu Zhuqing smiled and said, "Aji, should we persuade this Demon Soul Great White Shark to sacrifice itself for Sister Leng Leng? Although its strength is slightly inferior to the Evil Demon Tiger Whale King, with its 100,000-year cultivation, it should be able to help Sister Leng Leng's spirit power reach level 93."

"It might be possible with other 100,000-year-old soul beasts, but not this one. It was once the mount of the Sea God, and it is extremely arrogant. Apart from the Sea God and the High Priestess of Sea God Island, Poseidon, it looks down on almost everyone. Moreover, it hates humans who have 100,000-year-old soul rings, even if they are sacrificed by that soul beast."

Lan Ji shook his head and said to Ye Leng Leng, "Leng Leng, kill it. Remember not to damage its brain. The brain of a 100,000-year-old sea spirit beast is a great tonic. It can promote cultivation for spirit masters and prolong life for humans."

Ye Lengleng nodded, and his right hand lit up with blue light, transforming into a blue-silver Overlord Spear about two meters long, which he suddenly thrust towards the heart of the Demon Soul Great White Shark King.

This is Ye Lengleng's right arm spirit bone skill, the Blue Silver Overlord Spear, taken from the Blue Silver King, which is 80,000 to 5,000 years old. It was obtained from the Blue Silver King when Lan Ji obtained her fourth spirit ring and Qian Renxue obtained her seventh spirit ring.

At this moment, the Demon Soul Great White Shark had already lost consciousness and its life was in imminent danger. How could it possibly block Ye Leng Leng's Soul Bone Technique when it was powerless to resist?

Unsurprisingly, his heart was pierced, and he lost his life.

The Soul-Devouring Spider Web binding it disappeared, and the Azure Lotus Heart-Slaying Chain also dissipated. Faint red light spots gathered on the corpse of the Demon Soul Great White Shark King, finally transforming into a dazzling scarlet halo.

"Leng Leng, you can stay here and absorb the soul rings and soul bones of the Demon Soul Great White Shark King," Lan Ji said to Ye Leng Leng.

Ye Lengleng smiled slightly, and under Zhu Zhuqing's slightly jealous gaze, she wrapped her arms around Lan Ji's neck and kissed him on the cheek. Then she quickly turned around and walked to the corpse of the Demon Soul Great White Shark King, sat down cross-legged, and began to absorb the soul ring.

Lan Ji smiled calmly, turned his gaze to Zhu Zhuqing who was almost stomping her feet in anger, pointed to his own cheek, and said in a cheeky manner, "Zhuqing, do you want to join in too?"

"You're so unserious." Zhu Zhuqing blushed and glared at Lan Ji.

Lan Ji chuckled awkwardly, not minding at all, and changed the subject, saying, "Zhu Qing, you stay here to protect Leng Leng, I'm going to hunt down the Deep Sea Demon Whale King."

"Aji, isn't this too dangerous? Aji, that Deep Sea Demon Whale King has a million years of cultivation. Let's wait until Sister Leng Leng finishes absorbing her soul ring before we go together. Or we can wait until Sister Xue'er comes out of seclusion." Zhu Zhuqing said with some worry.

Lan Ji shook his head, stepped forward and gently pinched the kitten's cheek, smiling, "No need, don't you trust me? The Deep Sea Demon Whale King isn't a true god after all, at most a demigod. I even killed Tang Chen, who possessed the Asura Demon Sword, so how could I not kill it? Don't overthink it. Just wait for me to come back. If I can't beat it, I'll just use spatial teleportation to return."

As she spoke, Lan Ji turned to leave.

Chapter 381 First Encounter with Poseidon

—————Update in 15 minutes—————

Ever since Tang San left Sunset Forest, he had been secretly following him out of concern. Even when he witnessed Tang San being framed at the gathering of the four major single-attribute sects, he didn't intervene. He knew that if he did, things would only get worse.

After all, he had seen the resentment that the other three major single-attribute sects harbored towards him, apart from the Power Clan.

He wouldn't have shown up if Tang San hadn't been in dire straits.

...North of Tiandou City, in the new clan territory of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, in the reception hall.

Dai Mubai met Oscar, Ning Rongrong, and Ma Hongjun, and explained his purpose to them.

As expected, Oscar firmly refused.

Since Oscar refused, Ning Rongrong naturally couldn't go with him either.

Only Ma Hongjun, who was also a eunuch, was moved. Although he hated Tang San, he longed to be a complete man again. Having lost his male characteristics, he had nowhere to vent his lust, and these days he had been living a life worse than death, only able to soak in ice water every day to relieve the pain of his lustful backlash.

He didn't want to live like that anymore.

“Fatty, are you really sure? I don’t need to say more about what kind of person Tang San is. Even if the legend of Seagod Island is true, this trip will definitely be fraught with danger. Are you sure Tang San won’t abandon you at the crucial moment?” Oscar looked at Ma Hongjun and asked solemnly.

“I know, but I can’t take this kind of life anymore. I’m worried that if this continues, I’ll burn to death because I have nowhere to vent my anger,” Ma Hongjun said with a pained expression.

"Don't worry, Oscar, with me here, I won't let Fatty get into any trouble." Dai Mubai put his arm around Ma Hongjun's shoulder and said to Oscar.

"Alright then, I hope everything goes smoothly for you. Be careful in everything. Fatty, you should talk to your father-in-law later. You're now a member of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, so you'll need his approval." Oscar knew about Ma Hongjun's current physical condition and didn't object too much.

Just then, a loud explosion was heard in the distance.

The four rushed out of the reception room at the same time, only to see Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo already standing in the courtyard, their gazes fixed solemnly on the source of the sound.

“Father-in-law, Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Bone, where is…” Oscar couldn’t help but ask.

Ning Fengzhi did not answer, but said calmly, "Xiao Ao, you and Rongrong stay in the sect and don't go out. Uncle Gu, I'm leaving the sect in your care. Uncle Jian, let's go to Tian Dou Imperial City."

As soon as he finished speaking, Sword Douluo summoned a flying sword, took Ning Fengzhi on it, and flew rapidly towards the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

...........

Tian Dou Imperial Palace Square.

"Damn it, how can this guy be this strong? Little monster, are you alright...?" Dugu Bo clutched his chest as he climbed out of the rubble and dug Tang San out, who had also been shoved into the rubble by Lan Ji.

"I'm fine. Old Poison Master, what happened to you?" Tang San, struggling to his feet with Dugu Bo's help, stood up despite his injuries.

Dugu Bo gave a bitter smile. "Little monster, I'm afraid I'm doomed this time. That kid Lan Ji already has strength comparable to a Title Douluo, and I'm being suppressed by him. I'm afraid we'll never be able to leave the Heaven Dou Palace again."

"Looks like you two are quite self-aware." As soon as he finished speaking, Lan Ji appeared behind the two of them.

Tang San turned to look at Lan Ji, who was inside Xiao Wu's illusory form, his gaze filled with complex emotions. He stood up and questioned, "Why...why are you targeting me like this?"

"Why..." Lan Ji laughed, a cold and handsome laugh. "You should know that from the moment you first tried to take my life during the Soul Battle in Soto City, it was all destined. You don't naively think I'd let someone who has repeatedly tried to kill me go, do you? Not to mention your father, Tang Ritian, tried to kill me in the Papal Palace last time."

"Then why did you treat Xiao Wu like this? What did she do to offend you?" Tang San questioned again.

"It's simple, the strong prey on the weak. Just like you hunting spirit beasts to increase your strength, having such a fine spirit ring here, it would be foolish not to take it. I think the reason your dead father waited until you reached level 60 before sending you to the Star Dou Great Forest to find Xiao Wu was probably because he wanted to absorb her spirit ring and spirit bone." Lan Ji sneered, turning his gaze to Dugu Bo: "Alright, that's enough of the conversation, you old poisoner. Considering your granddaughter's past relationship with me, I can give you a chance. Leave now, otherwise... stay here and die with Tang San."

"Haha..." Dugu Bo laughed, a relieved laugh. He put his hands behind his back, staring coldly at Lan Ji, and said in a deep voice, "Lan Ji, I must say, I underestimated you, or rather, everyone in the world underestimated you. No one expected that in just five years you would grow to this level, and with such deep cunning. You were even able to devise a scheme to kill with a borrowed knife, clearing the obstacles for Xue Qinghe's ascension to the throne. I must say, you are truly clever; almost nothing escaped your control."

"But you've miscalculated one thing: we're on different paths, so we can't work together. I will never associate with a treacherous and cunning person like you. If you have the guts, then bring it on."

"Using someone else to do your dirty work? I don't understand what you're talking about at all. If you think you can clear your name like this, you're sorely mistaken." Lan Ji shrugged slightly, and his first and second soul rings lit up. Forty-nine blue lotuses appeared out of thin air and then transformed into three hundred and ninety-two sharp blades, raining down on Tang San and Dugu Bo.

Orange-red flames rose from each blade, leaving trails of fire in the air.

"You brat, how dare you hurt my son?" A deep voice suddenly rang out, as if it exploded in the air. Although the voice was not loud, it exuded an aura of dominance.

Upon hearing this voice, Tang San, who was on the verge of despair, suddenly raised his head, his eyes gleaming with hope. Lan Ji, on the other hand, showed no surprise whatsoever, as if he had expected it all along.

A massive black iron hammer, as thick as a water vat, descended from the sky. The hundreds of sharp blades, wreathed in orange-red flames, were instantly deflected, spun a few times in the air, and finally scattered neatly around Tang San and Dugu Bo, without harming them in the slightest.

A black figure appeared silently at the top of the hammer handle, as if he had always been there.

This was a burly old man with white hair, one arm, and sallow skin. Coupled with his beard that hadn't been groomed for who knows how many days, he was incredibly slovenly.

Upon seeing the white-haired old man appear, Tang San's mind and body instantly collapsed. Tears welled in his eyes, and he managed to utter two words with difficulty, "Dad..."

Yes, this one-armed old man is Tang Ritian. Five years have passed, and due to the loss of his arm, his cultivation has greatly decreased. With only eighty-one levels of soul power, he has completely aged.

Chapter 382 Hunting the Deep Sea Demon Whale King

"Twin Martial Souls?" Poseidon was taken aback. While marveling at Lan Ji's monstrous talent, he sensed that Lan Ji did not possess the aura of the Demon Soul Great White Shark. His expression softened slightly. "I apologize for my rudeness. Since you are here to obtain a Soul Ring, and you do not possess the aura of the Demon Soul Great White Shark, I misunderstood you. If you find the Demon Soul Great White Shark King, please do not harm it."

Seeing that the other party was actually apologizing, Lan Ji suddenly felt bored. He had thought he could have a fight with the other party. He then waved his hand impatiently and continued flying towards the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's territory.
