Qian Renxue’s eyes lit up, filled with both unwillingness and confidence.
Her unwillingness stemmed from her grandfather also acknowledging that the Angel God was not as powerful as the Asura God. Since they were both becoming deities, who wouldn’t want to become a powerful god?
But precisely because of this, it gave her the opportunity to surpass Tang Chen.
I must become a god before Tang Chen.
"Grandfather, let’s begin. I want to undertake the second test!" Qian Renxue said firmly.
The Angel God’s second test was to challenge another self condensed from Angel God Power—a trial of practical combat.
Qian Renxue decided to push herself, aiming to improve through the test.
"Alright, Xue’er, follow me!" Qiandao Liu led Qian Renxue out.
Perhaps his granddaughter could pass the second test today.
The Douluo Hall returned to calm, and Spirit City was licking its wounds. Meanwhile, the news of Tang Chen’s reappearance and his attack on Spirit City quickly spread.
This was bound to become explosive news, overturning the continent’s situation.
...
In the sky.
Dugu Feng stood on the back of the Emerald Dragon Snake, flying toward Heaven Dou City.
The battle between Tang Chen, Bibi Dong, and Qiandao Liu did not surprise him.
He was well aware of Tang Chen’s physical condition—divine power entering his body would inevitably lead to collapse.
Sure enough, Tang Chen exercised restraint and did not fight to the death.
But Bibi Dong’s performance amused Dugu Feng greatly—she was directly scared off.
Bibi Dong’s Ninth Soul Skill, Undying Body, ensured that as long as her opponent was not at the divine level, they could not kill her. No matter how severe the injury, she could recover.
This time, Bibi Dong was shattered into pieces by Tang Chen’s Asura Sword Radiance. At that moment, according to the Emerald Dragon Snake’s senses, Bibi Dong had lost all signs of life.
Coupled with her body being shattered, anyone suffering such injuries would have died.
But Bibi Dong still managed to recover using this soul skill.
It was unknown how much divine power Bibi Dong had consumed this time, but it should delay her progress in the God Test, right?
Wasn’t that his goal?
It was a pity that Bibi Dong wasn’t killed. Given her current strength, only a deity could kill her!
Next, it’s my turn!
Dugu Feng sneered.
Not long after, Dugu Feng sensed Tang Chen’s figure catching up.
He still pretended not to notice Tang Chen until Tang Chen lightly landed on the back of the Emerald Dragon Snake.
Only then did Dugu Feng feign surprise and say, "Your Eminence, did you kill Bibi Dong so quickly?"
Tang Chen shook his head and said, "Bibi Dong was severely injured and fled. She has the Rakshasa Demon Scythe and can enter the Rakshasa Secret Realm at any time. I couldn’t find her!
However, she paid a heavy price this time. Presumably, she won’t be able to become a god within the next two or three years. When she reappears, I’ll just kill her then!"
Tang Chen certainly wouldn’t let Dugu Feng know that his time was running out.
He had acted with full confidence in Spirit City, announcing the unsealing of the Clear Sky Sect.
His goal was to intimidate Spirit Hall and the hidden Evil Soul Masters.
This would buy time for the Clear Sky Sect’s development. Most importantly, he had learned from Dugu Feng that his grandson, Tang Hao, had also passed through Slaughter City and possessed the Slaughter God Domain.
This was his hope.
It was also the reason he was unwilling to waste divine power.
"I cannot become the Asura God, so let my grandson become the Asura God instead!" Tang Chen sighed inwardly.
Dugu Feng was well aware of this as well. In the original storyline, Tang Chen had infused all the inheritance power of the Asura God into the Asura Demon Sword, allowing Tang San to inherit it.
This was equivalent to inheriting Tang Chen’s progress in the God Trial, allowing him to ascend to the heavens in a single step.
Otherwise, how could Tang San have ultimately defeated Bibi Dong? It was all predestined!
This time, Dugu Feng believed Tang Chen would still do the same.
He smiled and said, "Your Eminence, you are too powerful. With you here, neither the Spirit Hall nor the Evil Soul Masters will ever be able to threaten us again!"
Tang Chen calmly gazed into the distance without speaking. This Dugu Feng was also a genius, but compared to his grandson and great-grandson, he simply couldn’t measure up.
What a pity. Originally, he had obtained the Slaughter God Domain and had hopes of unlocking the Asura God Trial.
But the Asura God Trial was destined for his grandson.
Ah, right, there was also his great-grandson, Tang San. Next, he could send him to the Slaughter City to obtain the Slaughter God Domain, just to be prepared.
Thus, each lost in their own thoughts, the two returned to Heaven Dou City without any delays along the way.
Without waiting for Tang Chen’s instructions, Dugu Feng immediately used his Spiritual Power to notify Ning Fengzhi, his father Dugu Shuo, Dugu Bo, Ge Long, Feng Bailong, and Titan—all the powerful figures in Heaven Dou City.
"Your Eminence Tang Chen has returned. Come quickly to the Clear Sky Sect to pay your respects!"
Dugu Feng only said this one sentence, confident that these individuals would rush over immediately.
When he transmitted his message, he made no attempt to hide it from Tang Chen.
Tang Chen tacitly allowed it, not stopping him. Indeed, he needed to announce to the world that he, Tang Chen, invincible on land, had returned.
At the Hao Tian Mansion next to the Defense Clan.
Tang San and the others had already returned from the Star Dou Great Forest. This trip to the Star Dou Great Forest had yielded perfect results.
Tang San’s second Martial Soul, the Clear Sky Hammer, had already absorbed five Spirit Rings, and his first Martial Soul, the Blue Silver Emperor, had also acquired its ninth Spirit Ring.
His strength had advanced to level 94, only one level behind Dugu Feng.
The advantages of Twin Soul Spirits were displayed to the fullest.
Everyone in the Clear Sky Sect was thrilled. They would soon witness the birth of a super powerhouse.
However, regarding the Godhood Inheritance, there was still no clue. Tang Hao, Tang Xiao, and Yu Xiaogang were growing anxious.
Only Tang San was in high spirits.
Having cultivated to the level of a Titled Douluo, his Mystic Heaven Skill had also broken through to its highest realm, with internal energy flowing endlessly, vast and boundless.
This was the highest internal cultivation technique of the Tang Sect. Reaching such a realm filled Tang San with a sense of accomplishment.
Moreover, the internal energy at this highest level possessed powerful healing effects. He immediately used it to treat Tang Hao, nearly restoring all of his injuries.
Over the years, Tang Hao had been accompanying Tang San and the others on Poseidon Island, undergoing the God Trials. The medicinal effects of the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng had been continuously stimulated within him, greatly improving his strength. His old ailments had already been on the verge of healing.
With Tang San’s assistance this time, his Soul Power Level even showed signs of a breakthrough—truly a joyous occasion.
Beyond this, Tang San spent his days and nights pondering over Guanyin Tears and Bodhi Blood, making rapid progress.
After comparing the techniques of these two Tang Sect Hidden Weapons with the Soul Skills of the Clear Sky Sect, he discovered that Guanyin Tears could deliver a fatal blow in actual combat when caught off guard.
This would become his greatest trump card.
It was only at this moment that Tang San truly felt like a powerhouse.
In the past, he had always needed others’ protection and constantly worried about the appearance of Evil Soul Masters.
Now, Tang San was no longer afraid.
Soul Skills can be countered, but Tang Sect Hidden Weapons techniques will ensure the enemy never returns.
Tang San decided that once he had mastered Guanyin Tears and Bodhi Blood, he would immediately set out to travel the continent to obtain Godhood Inheritance.
"Evil Soul Master, even if you don’t come looking for me, I will come for you. I will take back everything that belongs to me!
That is my External Soul Bone!"
Tang San once again became fixated on his External Soul Bone.
