Tang San: What Do You Mean the Tang Sect Sold the Mysterious Heaven Skill?

Holy Soul Village, Fasinuo Province, Heaven Dou Empire.

A young boy in patched clothes sat cross-legged on a large green boulder on a hillside, facing the rising sun.

As the morning sun rose, a nearly imperceptible wisp of purple Qi was absorbed into the boy's eyes.

A flash of purple light passed through his eyes before they returned to their original black.

He took a deep breath and looked once more at the Sky Screen high above.

"Sea God Tang San? Could that be me in the future?"

That was right. This boy was the pure-as-ice-and-jade God King Tang, in his juvenile form!

Still, it had to be said that the young Tang San was known throughout Holy Soul Village as a kind and honest child.

He was skilled at everything from sweeping and cooking to washing clothes. When his father couldn't find work, he even had to beg for food from the village households.

But not even his drunkard father, Sun Heaven Douluo Tang Hao, knew that within his son's small body dwelled a fully mature soul.

Shrek Academy has a connection to Sea God Tang San. In that case, I must enroll at Shrek Academy in the future!

Tang San made up his mind, then practiced the Tang Sect Secret Arts while watching the images playing on the Sky Screen.

"To reach the Sun Moon Empire, we need to go to Yuming City on the border of the Star Luo Empire, then pass through the checkpoint in the Ming Dou Mountain Range to enter the Sun Moon Continent."

"As for how long it'll take..."

Holding a map of the Douluo Continent, Lin Bai was discussing the route with Qian Renxue and Huo Yutong.

Just then, a familiar voice rang out.

"Wow, what a coincidence! It's you again!"

Lin Bai turned around with a frown, and his face darkened at once.

Why was Tang Ya, a sect master without a single follower, haunting him like a restless ghost?

Could it be that God King Tang's great hand was at work again?

Then again, that made sense. In the original story, Tang Ya had picked up the Son of the Plane in this very place. He should have left sooner and gone farther away.

"Hey, did you see that?"

"There was a strange phenomenon just now. The whole sky went dark..."

Suddenly, Tang Ya and Bei Bei noticed the ink-black Ruthless Sword in Lin Bai's hand, and both froze.

In fact, after Lin Bai and his companions had left earlier, Tang Ya and Bei Bei had tried to follow them in secret.

The two of them had also witnessed Lin Bai frighten the Wind Baboon into retreat with the Passionate Sword.

At the time, Lin Bai's silver long sword Martial Soul, which could trap living beings in an illusion, had left a deep impression on them.

But later, Lin Bai seemed to have discovered them. He and Qian Renxue stood beside a tree at an intersection, glancing in their direction from time to time.

So Tang Ya and Bei Bei had no choice but to abandon their attempt to investigate further.

But to their surprise, while searching for a Soul Ring for Tang Ya, they ran into Lin Bai again.

And now he was holding another sword, one as black as ink and radiating sharpness and killing intent.

Twin Martial Souls?!

As soon as those words appeared in Tang Ya's mind, her eyes lit up.

Then her gaze shifted toward Huo Yutong.

Golden light flickered in Huo Yutong's beautiful eyes, and the powerful mental fluctuations around her were almost tangible.

Meanwhile, Qian Renxue possessed an incomparably holy and noble bearing, like a goddess walking among mortals.

Three peerless geniuses!

Tang Ya's heart was instantly wrapped tight in happiness!

If she could trick... attract these three peerless geniuses into joining the Tang Sect, then wouldn't the Tang Sect's future...

"Little brother, and you two little sisters, would you like to join our Tang Sect?"

Lin Bai was utterly speechless at Tang Ya's words.

The Son of the Plane in the original story came from a difficult background and hadn't seen much of the wider world, so it was only natural that a few words from Tang Ya had fooled him.

But from the clothes Lin Bai and the other two wore to what hung around their necks, they looked every bit like nobles.

Under those circumstances, Tang Ya, the master of a sect fallen so low it was comparable to a roadside trash can, still dared to ask?

"Sorry, we have no intention of joining any sect."

Qian Renxue naturally understood what her brother was thinking.

After taking a look at Lin Bai's expression, she refused outright.

"Why? Our Tang Sect was once the number one sect on the continent! Our Tang Sect Secret Arts were passed down by our ancestor, Sea God Tang San..."

At that point, Lin Bai suddenly spoke, looking thoughtful.

"Actually, Sect Master Tang Ya, there is something I really would like to ask you."

"Are your Tang Sect Secret Arts for sale?"

Tang Ya froze at his words.

"For sale?"

Lin Bai smiled and nodded.

"That's right. I want the cultivation methods for two Tang Sect Secret Arts, the Mysterious Heaven Skill and the Purple Demon Eye. Name your price."

Although Lin Bai looked down on the hypocrite God King Tang, on the Douluo Continent, where cultivation methods were comparable to those of primitive people, the Mysterious Heaven Skill and Purple Demon Eye were quite good for building a foundation.

Cultivation methods that could steadily improve Soul Power and mental power would also benefit the three of them in the future.

As for the other Tang Sect Secret Arts?

Once Lin Bai's cultivation had improved, he could make a trip to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and have everything.

But Tang Ya was furious when she heard Lin Bai's offer.

The Tang Sect Secret Arts were priceless treasures left behind by their ancestor Tang San, the foundation of the Tang Sect's ten-thousand-year legacy.

Even if she starved to death or jumped out of a tree, she would never make such a decision that defied her ancestors!

"Ten thousand Gold Soul Coins for one Tang Sect Secret Art."

"I can swear on my Martial Soul that only the three of us will practice them, and we won't spread them on a large scale."

"There's an old saying on Douluo: a wise man knows when to adapt. I think these shiny Gold Soul Coins will surely be enough to pry open your heart, Sect Master Tang."

Tang Ya's eyes widened at Lin Bai's words.

Twenty thousand Gold Soul Coins were a timely rain for the Tang Sect, which was so short of money it was tempted to sell blood!

The next instant, she took two booklets out of her Storage Soul Tool and handed them to Lin Bai.

"Deal!"

"Holy crap!"

Tang San, who was practicing Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, stumbled, lost his footing, and rolled down the hillside.

On the way down, his face accidentally had an intimate encounter with a pile of dog shit on the ground.

"Urgh..."

After finally managing to get back on his feet, Tang San retched as he watched Tang Ya accept Lin Bai's stored-value card on the Sky Screen.

He was now utterly certain that the future Sea God Tang San was him!

Because on the entire Douluo Continent, he was the only one who possessed the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record and had learned the Tang Sect Secret Arts!

But the Tang Sect Secret Arts had never been passed on to outsiders. Even he had stolen them!

Yet a junior of the Tang Sect had gone and sold the Tang Sect Secret Arts outright?!

Then what was the point of all the trouble he'd gone through to steal the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, and even being driven to jump off a cliff?

"She really has a way to die! I'm furiousss!!!"

While Tang Ya happily counted her money, Bei Bei's gaze fell on the map in Lin Bai's hand.

The route marked on it was clearly headed for the Ming Dou Mountain Range.

"Little brother, are you going to the Sun Moon Empire?"
