The Glory of the Sun and Moon in the Peerless Tang Sect

Little White uttered its final, heart-wrenching question.

"Why?! Why does the sea god treat his people like this?!"

Seeing this scene before him, the Demon Emperor's lips curled up wildly, revealing a gleeful yet slightly morbid smile.

"Do you understand now?! The sea god will never favor his people in the sea; he will only leave his legacy to those despicable and shameless humans who only know how to kill and destroy. To the sea god, you are nothing more than his dog!"

As he mocked, the Demon Emperor slowly raised his right hand and made a gesture of grasping at Xiaobai from a distance.

Around her fair palm, all light was instantly swallowed up, turning the space dark and creating an atmosphere resembling a deep black hole.

Affected by this black hole, Little White, the King of the Demon Soul Great White Sharks, was instantly immobilized in place. An unknown force seemed to be pressing down on every part of her body.

With bloodshot eyes, Xiaobai let out a furious scream and reverted to her original form. Only in this state could she fully unleash her power.

However, no matter how much she struggled, she could not break free from the Demon Emperor's control.

"puff--"

Thor's Spear flashed by, piercing through the body of the Demon Soul Great White Shark King, which was over forty meters long, leaving a hideous bloody hole.

Xiao Bai's eyes began to glaze over. Like a final revolving lantern, her mind was now filled with memories of fighting alongside that person against the Demon Orca King and the Deep Sea Demon Whale King ten thousand years ago.

She still clearly remembers what that person said to her: I've always considered you a friend.

Friend? Heh.

Looking back now, how ironic it all seems. Perhaps, as the Demon Emperor said, she was nothing more than Tang San's dog. How could a high and mighty deity possibly place a mere soul beast like her on the same level as himself?

She didn't expect Tang San to remember their past friendship; after all, their Demon Soul Great White Shark clan had served the Sea God diligently for tens of thousands of years. To end up like this was truly tragic.

In his final moments, the devastated Great White Shark King, Xiao Bai, was only worried about his daughter.

The Demon Emperor burst into laughter.

"Ha ha ha ha--"

She wanted this so-called messenger of the sea god to personally cripple the Demon Soul Great White Shark King, Little White, and watch his faith in the sea god completely collapse.

Once upon a time, she was just an innocent young girl who only wanted to be with her husband. But from the moment that person stole her husband's soul ring and soul bone for his own selfish reasons, she felt nothing but resentment towards humanity.

She hated that person, and even extended her hatred to all of humanity.

But her resentment towards Little White, the Great White Shark King who had once devoured the energy within her husband, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, was even stronger.

With a grab of her right hand, the Demon Emperor drew Little White's enormous body to her from the black hole in her palm.

Her delicate, fair hand roughly reached into Little White's enormous head. The next moment, a bead emitting a faint light and appearing entirely deep blue was held in her palm.

This is a shark pearl.

Only a Demon Soul Great White Shark that has cultivated to the level of 100,000 years can produce such a shark pearl after its death. Moreover, it must possess the royal bloodline of the Demon Soul Great White Shark clan.

This is the most important thing of the Demon Soul Great White Shark clan, and it is also a legacy passed down through generations.

A deep sorrow welled up in the Demon Emperor's eyes, along with a profound and unforgettable hatred.

"Back then, you devoured my husband's flesh and blood and cultivation. Today, I will seize the Shark Pearl, the inheritance of your Demon Soul Great White Shark Royal Clan, as the foundation for breaking through to the next realm."

With the aid of this shark pearl, she will not only be able to recover to her peak condition, but will also have a very high chance of surviving the eight hundred thousand-year tribulation in one fell swoop. With the noble bloodline of the Deep Sea Demon Whale clan, when that time comes, there will be no one in the sea who can contend with her.

The reason why the Demon Emperor did not exert true pressure at the Limit Douluo level was because the injury involving the second soul core in his body had not fully recovered, and he was temporarily unable to mobilize the power of the second soul core.

Otherwise, if the Demon Emperor were at his peak, he could suppress and kill the Demon Soul Great White Shark King, Little White, with a single strike.

A blood-red spirit ring materialized on the corpse of Little White, the King of Demon Soul Great White Sharks. Compared to a typical 100,000-year spirit ring, this blood-red ring was far more ferocious. It also bore three strange golden patterns.

A crimson light emanated from the surrounding air, making it instantly thick and viscous.

This is a genuine spirit ring from a 300,000-year-old ferocious beast. Unfortunately, the Demon Soul Great White Shark King was killed by the Demon Emperor himself, and therefore cannot be absorbed by anyone.

Just then, another deep blue beam of light shot into the sky. And in the very center of this beam, a strange, crystal-clear bone floated. This bone resembled a miniature human skull, but it reflected a deep blue halo.

Two gray-blue flames flickered in his eye sockets, making him look exceptionally mysterious.

The moment this soul bone came into contact with the air, a deep blue light enveloped the space within a radius of thousands of meters.

It was the head bone that exploded after the death of the Great White Shark King, a demonic soul with 300,000 years of cultivation.

The space around the soul bone distorted, then traversed a distance of several thousand meters and appeared in the control of Xu Zihuang's right hand.

The Demon Emperor raised his head and looked over, letting out a mocking sneer.

"Humans are indeed the most greedy creatures. But I'm in a good mood today, so I'll spare your life for now. Get lost before I change my mind."

Moreover, while the head soul bone of the Demon Soul Great White Shark King is an extremely rare treasure for human soul masters, it has no value whatsoever to her as a soul beast.

Xu Zihuang met the Demon Emperor's gaze without flinching, his eyes icy cold.

I hope that when we meet for the third time, you will still have the courage to say these words.

As he spoke, Xu Zihuang's purple-gold armor transformed into specks of light and dissipated into the air, revealing his true form. At the same time, his martial soul transformed into golden eyes, with five black, one red, and one gold soul rings rising and sweeping over with unparalleled terrifying power.

This encounter has led him to include the Demon Emperor on his kill list. The Deep Sea Demon Whale, with its dual water and lightning attributes and cultivation level approaching that of the Beast God Emperor Tian and the Evil Eye Tyrant Emperor, is perfectly suited as the soul ring for his second martial soul, the Purple Radiance Thunder Prison Dragon.

A giant golden light appeared out of thin air in Xu Zihuang's figure.

"It's you?!" At this moment, the Demon Emperor seemed to suddenly remember something, and his expression changed drastically.

But she was destined to receive no response.

His figure flashed, and he appeared in front of Wang Qiu'er, gripping her wrist tightly once more. With another flash, the two disappeared from the sea.

Not long after Xu Zihuang and Wang Qiu'er left this sea area, the space suddenly collapsed, and a cold and furious snort resounded in this space.

Under this terrifying pressure, the Demon Emperor instantly transformed into his true form, and the surprise and doubt in his eyes completely turned into horror.

"Who is it?!"

However, the space quickly returned to calm. Only the Demon Emperor's deep, mournful roar echoed for hundreds of kilometers. Countless sea spirit beasts fled in panic.

Tang Wutong's figure was also nowhere to be seen in the sky above this sea area.

Chapter 418 The Plan to Return to the Mainland and the Revelation of Wang Qiu'er's Identity

A calm sea area thousands of miles away.

Golden light appeared, and the figures of Xu Zihuang and Wang Qiu'er materialized in the sky above this sea area.

Xu Zihuang put the deep blue head soul bone he had taken from the Demon Soul Great White Shark King into his storage ring.

This was the ring his father had left him. It was a translucent deep purple, engraved with a lifelike image of the Purple Radiance Annihilating Heaven Dragon.

He had worn this ring with him ever since leaving Moon Pivot Island. Moreover, this ring was of a high grade, a genuine peak level eight soul tool. Of course, the ring in Ye Guyi's hand, engraved with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon pattern, was also a peak level eight storage soul tool.

These two storage rings are called the Radiant Dragon Ring and the Thunder Dragon Ring, respectively.

Level 9 storage soul tools do not exist in this world. After all, the purpose of creating storage soul tools is simply to facilitate daily life, and no level 9 soul master would bother to devote their energy to them in a thankless task.

Even the two rings that he and Ye Guyi wore were custom-made by a senior level nine soul master that his father specially found.

He also placed the Purple-Patterned Radiant Dragon and the Demon Whale, which ranked third among the engraving knives on the list, into the Radiant Dragon Ring.

Xu Zihuang put the Radiant Dragon Ring on the index finger of his right hand, and then quickly took out the Sun and Moon Universe Bowl, a level nine peak defensive soul tool that he had taken from Xu Tianran, from his storage bracelet.

Although a storage soul tool can theoretically store anything except living things, if the quality of the stored item is far superior to that of the storage soul tool, the storage soul tool will be highly likely to be damaged.

As expected, the moment he took out the dark golden Sun and Moon Universe Bowl, the storage bracelet on Xu Zihuang's left wrist shattered into powder.

All the items stored in the storage bracelet were damaged. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and, with his amazing control over spatial power, managed to save the Primordial Immortal Herb stored in the jade box.

As expected of a level nine peak soul tool, it is truly domineering.

However, given the peak level eight grade of the Radiant Dragon Ring, storing the Sun and Moon Universe Bowl should not be a problem.

After storing the Sun and Moon Universe Bowl and the Primordial Immortal Herb into the Radiant Dragon Ring, Xu Zihuang looked at Wang Qiu'er beside him with a sense of unease.

At this moment, his left hand was still tightly gripping Wang Qiu'er's wrist.

Wang Qiu'er, who was usually aloof, did not break free immediately. Only when her eyes met Xu Zihuang's did she withdraw her right hand as if she had been electrocuted, her eyes flickering slightly.

Xu Zihuang didn't care about any of that, because he realized a very serious problem: Tang San hadn't teleported them back to the Valley of Love and Destiny.

But such an outcome was actually predictable.

Now, an even more serious problem arises. When they went to assassinate Xu Tianran at the Sun Moon Empire's palace, it was late at night, while in this sea area it was noon.

This means they are currently on the other side of Douluo Star.

This means that he and Wang Qiu'er must rely on their own abilities to cross half of Douluo Star in order to return to the mainland.

Leaving aside whether they could safely cross such a distant sea, the time it would take would probably be measured in years.

Even with Xu Zihuang's temperament, he couldn't help but furrow his brow in the face of such a situation.

With his abilities, he could certainly protect himself, if not kill or repel a particularly powerful sea spirit beast. What he was worried about was that the time before he returned to Douluo Continent was too unpredictable.

If it takes him several years to return to the mainland, then all his plans may be disrupted.

However, considering that the deities he had contacted did not seem to be interfering, Xu Zihuang guessed that this might be a test for him.

The road ahead is full of unknowns and difficulties.

Xu Zihuang took a deep breath, calming his mind. He then descended into the sea below, retrieving the Demon Whale from his Dragon Ring.

The Demon Whale, which he had built years ago to gain experience in the deep seas, came in handy at this time.

Although both he and Wang Qiu'er possessed the ability to fly, they couldn't maintain that ability at all times. The Demon Whale provided them with a place to rest and stand.

Xu Zihuang sat cross-legged at the rear of the Demon Whale, leaving the control panel at the front, which was used to steer the ship, empty. The control panel was essentially just two grooves through which soul power was channeled into the feet, and a white metal rudder for steering.

"Just to be on the safe side, let's continue sailing for now, away from the area where the deep-sea demon whale and the demon soul great white shark clan are fighting. We'll talk again once we're sure it's safe. My soul power is quite depleted, and I need to meditate to recover. You take control of the Demon Whale."

After saying this, Xu Zihuang closed his eyes and entered a meditative state.

Wang Qiu'er gracefully descended from the air, landing steadily in front of Xu Zihuang. Her gaze towards Xu Zihuang was complex, not only because of the strange emotional changes that had arisen within her during their time together, but also because of a more important reason.

She knew that, starting from the match against the Holy Spirit Team, Xu Zihuang had most likely guessed that her true form was the Three-Eyed Golden Lion from the Star Dou Great Forest.

She frequently used her innate ability to levitate on golden flames in her true form. Having seen her complete memories, Xu Zihuang could easily connect these connections.

However, Wang Qiu'er also knows Xu Zihuang's secret, namely, the question of Xu Zihuang's true identity.

Due to this special tacit understanding, neither of them explained these things clearly.

Just then, Xu Zihuang, who was multitasking, reminded Wang Qiu'er again.
