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

At that time, he can turn around and devour the four people from Chrysanthemum Pass, and the Limit Douluo title will be within reach.

Chapter 410 Instantly Kills Tang San

Watching Tang San's departing figure, Chrysanthemum Pass, Ghost, Serpent Spear, and Porcupine exchanged uneasy glances, looking at each other in disarray. At this moment, they were all somewhat disheveled. The evil aura contained in Tang San's Rakshasa Demon Scythe had affected their minds, making them feel terrified and mentally frustrated.

Chrysanthemum Pass took a deep breath and spoke first, "Is that the power of a divine artifact? I never expected that Tang San would have such good fortune. In just a few years, he has risen from a mere Soul Emperor to a Super Douluo. If it weren't for Lord Lan Ji's early warning, I'm afraid some of us would have perished on the spot."

Upon hearing this, the other three nodded in deep agreement, but after considering that the Spirit Empire possessed two deities, Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue, as well as the unfathomably powerful Lan Ji, they became less concerned.

Serpent Spear Douluo hesitated for a moment and asked, "Should we still give chase?"

"No need." Juhua Guan shook his head. "Lord Lan Ji will handle things in Blackwater City."

Ghostly added, "Unsurprisingly, the Star Luo Empire's elite forces have been almost entirely wiped out by the old poisoner's deadly poison. Our mission is to use the pretext that the Star Luo Empire has initiated a war and invaded the territory of our Martial Soul Empire, and then dispatch a large army to launch a full-scale attack on the Star Luo Empire."

"There's no time to lose, everyone. Shuiyun Pass isn't heavily guarded. Let's meet there." As soon as Chrysanthemum finished speaking, the four of them flashed into four streaks of light and disappeared into the horizon. They then went to deploy their respective troops.

..............

Tian Dou Military Camp.

“General Locke, what is that…” one of the officers asked, looking at the pale green gas swirling around the Star Luo Camp.

General Locke is a newly promoted general of the Heavenly Dou Empire in recent years. He is at the Soul Saint realm and is Goron's deputy.

Originally a disciple of Emperor Qinghe during his time as crown prince, he was transferred to the army after Xue Qinghe ascended the throne. With his considerable strength and military leadership skills, coupled with his background as the emperor of the Heavenly Dou Empire, he rose rapidly through the ranks, becoming the empire's youngest general in just a few years.

His true identity is a cardinal of the Spirit Hall. He was responsible for assisting Zuo Qianrenxue in infiltrating the Heaven Dou Empire. After his success, he was sent to the army to seize military power within the Heaven Dou Empire. His mission this time was to use this alliance to eliminate Golong and several of his trusted generals, and to completely control the 150,000-strong army that Golong had personally trained.

Locke said expressionlessly, "Go, send a few men over to take a look."

"Yes." The officer replied respectfully, pointed to a few men, mounted his warhorse, and galloped towards the Xingluo camp.

..............

Blackwater City.

When Tang San arrived, the tens of thousands of soul masters on the city wall had already left. Apart from the garrison, there was only one soldier wearing the armor of the Spirit Hall Empire knight, sitting idly on the city wall.

A sense of unease crept into Tang San's heart. He radiated his spiritual power outwards and discovered that apart from a few garrison troops, there were hardly any Soul Masters left in the city.

What's going on? Could it be that the old poison master's deadly poison has already eliminated all those Soul Masters?

No, the soldiers on the city wall showed no signs of poisoning. Even these ordinary people weren't poisoned, so how could those soul masters have died?

The more Tang San thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. Just then, a calm and pleasant voice entered his ears, "No need to look anymore. The Star Luo Empire has attacked Blackwater City without authorization and invaded the Spirit Empire. That army of Soul Masters has been dispatched by Her Majesty the Empress to the various armies of the Spirit Empire to counterattack the Star Luo Empire."

Tang San was taken aback. He looked in the direction of the voice and his gaze fell on the soldier on the city wall who seemed to have no soul power fluctuations. He said in a deep voice, "And who are you?"

"Just a minor Soul Master from the Spirit Empire." Lan Ji slowly stood up. He adjusted the bright silver metal helmet on his face and stood leisurely on the city wall.

"You're courting death." Tang San sneered, and nine spirit rings—two yellow, two purple, and five black—rose up. Dark blue silver grass vines were instantly released, dozens of dark vines shooting out from the city wall, covering Lan Ji and the surrounding Spirit Empire soldiers, completely enveloping them.

A bloodthirsty smile appeared on Tang San's face. Just as he was about to devour the creature, the voice of the Rakshasa Demon Scythe rang in his ears, "Tang San, run..."

The next instant, streaks of golden light suddenly shot out from the city wall. The dark blue silver grass shattered into dust the moment it came into contact with the golden light, while Lan Ji and the soldiers on the city wall stood in place, unharmed.

"How is this possible?" Tang San was somewhat shocked. Although he hadn't used any soul skills, these Dark Blue Silver Grasses possessed powerful devouring abilities; even a Soul Saint would find it difficult to escape unscathed upon contact. Yet, they were completely disintegrated in an instant. Could it be that the other party was also a Title Douluo, just like him?

After a brief moment of shock, Tang San calmed down and looked at Lan Ji with a serious expression: "I'll ask you one more time, who exactly are you? Where did Dugu Bo go?"

"You arranged for the old poison master to massacre the city, and now the city is safe and sound. The old poison master's deadly poison, enough to wipe out the city, has been released, but he himself is not here. So now the question is, can you guess where he put the poison?" Lan Ji's calm voice rang out.

Tang San was suddenly shocked and couldn't help but look towards the direction of the Star Luo Empire's garrison. An ominous premonition instantly surged into his heart.

"Looks like you've figured it out. Too bad there's no reward." Lan Ji's calm voice rang out again, tinged with a hint of mockery.

"Damn it!" Tang San roared in fury, no longer holding back. Terrifying demonic light surged from his body, converging into the Rakshasa Demon Scythe, which he swung out with a sudden strike, unleashing a crescent-shaped green light that enveloped Lan Ji. He was going to kill this ant.

Lan Ji stood still, neither dodging nor evading, and without releasing his martial spirit, he simply chopped off the Rakshasa Demon Scythe's attack with a single hand chop, a golden light of almost the same size.

"Now it's my turn." Lan Ji's figure flashed strangely, and he was already in front of Tang San. Golden lightning surged in his left hand, and a golden hammer that Tang San had never seen before suddenly fell into his hand and slammed down towards Tang San.

"Overestimating yourself." Since obtaining the Rakshasa Demon Scythe, Tang San had never feared anyone in close combat. Seeing Tang San suddenly appear in front of him, he almost immediately swung the demon scythe with all his might. He was very confident in the Rakshasa Demon Scythe because a divine weapon was simply incomparable to the weapon spirits of human soul masters.

But the next moment, he regretted it.

Heavy, incredibly heavy, an unprecedentedly powerful force surged through Tang San's body via the Rakshasa Demon Scythe. Almost the instant the two divine artifacts clashed, Tang San was sent flying dozens of miles away like a cannonball. He crashed through several mountain peaks, finally landing in a lake and creating a hundred-meter-high wave.

Chapter 411 Tang San Goes Completely Mad

Dragging his injured body, Tang San swam with difficulty to the shore. As soon as he stepped ashore, he knelt down with a thud, supporting himself with one hand, clutching his chest, and suddenly vomited a mouthful of lake water mixed with blood. "Damn it, who is that guy?"

"I warned you long ago to run away. If I hadn't used the Rakshasa power left by the previous inheritor, you would have been dead from that attack." The Rakshasa Demon Scythe suddenly sprang out of the lake and landed in front of Tang San, its eerie green demonic light dimming slightly.

Tang San stepped forward, grasped the Rakshasa Demon Scythe, and asked again, "What the hell is that hammer? How can it withstand the attack of the Rakshasa Demon Scythe?"

"Didn't you already guess? Only divine artifacts can withstand divine artifacts." Rakshasa Demon Scythe said, "That person just now was beyond your ability to withstand. He was a Limit Douluo, and he even cultivated his martial soul to the level of a divine artifact. It's truly astonishing that someone could transform their martial soul into a divine artifact before becoming a god."

"A divine artifact? Could he also be a successor of a deity?" Tang San was somewhat shocked.

"It shouldn't be. I didn't sense any divine aura from him, yet he's incredibly close to being a god, his strength almost equivalent to a deity without a divine position. I think he might be planning to create his own divine position, just like my original master. In that era, she brought the evil soul master to its peak, had countless followers, and finally gathered the power of faith to achieve godhood," said Rakshasa Demon Scythe.

"Then where did she go now?" Tang San couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know. She left after setting up the legacy. Perhaps she ascended to the realm of gods." Or perhaps she perished together with the God of Angels.

"The God Realm?" Tang San became even more curious. "What kind of place is that?"

"Once you become the Rakshasa God, you will know what you plan to do next," the Rakshasa Demon Scythe changed the subject.

Rakshasa Demon Scythe said, "Has that guy chased after us? Perhaps he thought you were dead, so he probably went to mobilize troops to attack the Star Luo Empire."

Tang San's expression suddenly turned cold. "Then let's go back to the Allied Forces camp now."

He couldn't wait any longer. Now that someone from the Spirit Hall had appeared who seemed to have created his own godhood and completed the eighth trial, it was urgent.

He must hurry and become the Rakshasa God.

As for the Star Luo Empire, he couldn't care less about that anymore.

Let's just go all the way and see what happens.

...................

"Your Majesty, the poison has spread to almost the entire camp. Countless of our soldiers have been poisoned and killed or wounded, and we have less than 50,000 troops left to deploy."

"Your Majesty, the Spirit Empire has declared a full-scale war against the Star Luo Empire because of our entry into Blackwater City. The border is now in dire need of attention."

"Your Majesty, Marshal Goron is dying. General Locke of the Heavenly Dou Empire has sent someone to ask us what happened and wants to see General Goron..."

Upon hearing his subordinate's report, Dai Tianfeng's eyes turned bloodshot. He kicked over the military table and roared, "Useless! All of you are useless... Dugu Bo, has your soul power recovered? Go quickly and detoxify Marshal Ge Long..."

Golong commands 150,000 troops of the Heaven Dou Empire. If he were to die in the central command tent of the Star Luo Empire, the Star Luo Empire would be in serious trouble. It is highly likely that it would lose the Heaven Dou Empire as a powerful ally.

"Yes... Your Majesty." Dugu Bo said with a bitter face, forcing his weak body to begin detoxifying Ge Long.

At this moment, another soldier came to report, "Your Majesty, Duke Youming has returned with his army."

Dai Tianfeng said, "Quickly, send them directly to reinforce Shuiyun Pass. No matter what, Shuiyun Pass must not be lost. I will be there shortly."

"Yes." No sooner had the first soldier left than another soldier entered. "Your Majesty, the Tang Clan Leader has returned."

"Quickly, invite him in." Upon hearing that Tang San had returned, Dai Tianfeng's face finally showed a hint of joy.

As soon as he finished speaking, Tang San walked in with a gloomy face. "No need, Your Majesty, I'm already in."

"Sect Leader Tang, are you injured?" Dai Tianfeng asked, frowning.

Tang San nodded, glancing strangely at Dugu Bo, who was treating Ge Long's poison, and said, "I understand the situation here. Besides Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu, the Spirit Empire also has a Limit Douluo. It was he who moved the old poison master to this military camp while he was releasing the Jade Phosphorus Serpent Venom. But Your Majesty need not worry, I have already thought of a way to solve the current predicament."

Dai Tianfeng's eyes lit up. "Please, Sect Leader Tang, speak plainly."

"It's very simple. As long as I complete the Nine Trials of Rakshasa and become the Rakshasa God, I'll be fine. I've already completed the first seven trials. The eighth trial is still missing one condition. Once I complete the eighth trial, I can face the ninth trial." With that, Tang San walked up to Dai Tianfeng, a strange smile suddenly appearing on his face. "However, before that, I need to borrow something from His Majesty."

In his desperation, Dai Tianfeng said, "As long as the Star Luo Empire can be preserved, I will agree to anything."

"Alright." Tang San quietly grasped the Rakshasa Demon Scythe in his hand, and with a flash of light, the eerie green gleam shot straight towards Dai Tianfeng.

The attack happened so suddenly that Dai Tianfeng didn't even have time to defend himself. By the time he reacted, his body had already been pierced by the Rakshasa Demon Scythe. Blood flowed from his wound and mingled with the Rakshasa Demon Scythe.

"Why...why..." Dai Tianfeng looked at Tang San in anguish. Even in death, he could not believe that Tang San, who was like a brother to his son and on whom he had placed his hopes, would kill him.

"It's very simple. One of the eighth tests of my Rakshasa God is to make Mu Bai ascend the throne. Dai Tianfeng, the main force of the Star Luo Empire has been almost completely wiped out. You have no value to me anymore. Just consider me the last stepping stone before I become a god. Your son will inherit your throne."

After saying that, Tang San released the Dark Blue Silver Grass, which devoured Dai Tianfeng.

"Ah... His Majesty has been killed by Tang San..." Upon seeing this, the guards, already terrified by Dugu Bo's deadly poison, scattered and fled.

Tang San waved his hand, and a large swath of dark blue silver grass shot out, instantly engulfing both living soldiers and corpses in its path. He then turned his gaze to Dugu Bo and Ge Long.

When Tang San mentioned borrowing something from Dai Tianfeng, Dugu Bo saw through Tang San's intentions. Knowing that Tang San wanted to kill Dai Tianfeng like he killed Ma Hongjun, he immediately carried the poisoned Ge Long towards the Tian Dou Empire.

He knew that if he wanted to survive, only Lan Ji could protect him. And saving Ge Long was his way of showing loyalty.

Watching Dugu Bo's departing figure, Tang San, who had just devoured Dai Tianfeng and a large number of Star Luo Empire soldiers, grinned wickedly. With a mesmerizing flash, he caught up with Dugu Bo: "Old Poisoner, where are you going?"

Chapter 412 Guanyin's Tears, Tang San's Death

"Tang San, I have never done anything to wrong you. On the contrary, I have saved you from danger many times. Do you really want to kill me?" Dugu Bo rebuked angrily.

"Hahaha..." Tang San burst into wild laughter, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. His face was contorted with rage. "Old Poisonous One, you should know that from the moment you failed to protect the immortal herb that should have belonged to me, you were already sentenced to death in my heart. Later, you even lashed out at my mentor, dragged me into the Heaven Dou Palace coup, and caused my father's tragic death. This time, you were more of a hindrance than a help, completely ruining my only bargaining chip against the Spirit Empire. You should have died long ago."

"Then how about you killing your own teacher Yu Xiaogang, killing your own teacher's wife Liu Erlong, and wiping out your teacher's family?" Dugu Bo was also annoyed when he heard this. He put down Ge Long and mocked him, disregarding his fear.

"You're courting death." Upon hearing this, Tang San seemed to have been touched on a sore spot. He swung the Rakshasa Demon Scythe and unleashed a huge scythe light. The scythe light flashed and disappeared almost instantly, directly piercing through Dugu Bo's chest.
