The transaction between the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan went smoothly, and the Heaven Dou Empire's national treasure, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, had also fallen into Bibi Dong's hands. However... Bibi Dong did not approach it.

If Hu Liena had been here, entrusting it to her would have been the most suitable option.

But Hu Liena was absent, so Bibi Dong handed the item to Xu Yu for safekeeping.

Bibi Dong understood perfectly well that among so many people, Xu Yu was one of the few who stood on the same side as her.

Rather than give it to someone else and have it ultimately fall into enemy hands, she might as well let him keep it for now. At least it would not strengthen the enemy.

She hoped Xu Yu would not disappoint her.

As for Xu Yu's domain, was it real or fake? She did not know.

Xu Yu had actually guessed correctly. Domains were far too rare. Even among Titled Douluo, only a handful possessed one. The soul master world knew even less about domains than it did about Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts. Bibi Dong had no basis for judging whether Xu Yu was telling the truth.

There was an eighty to ninety percent chance it was real. That was Bibi Dong's judgment.

That was not wrong either. Stepping into the range covered by the tree's shade did indeed suppress enemies and empower allies, precisely matching the unique abilities of a domain.

To be honest, even Xu Yu did not know whether this ability counted as a domain.

Residential district.

Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.

Xu Yu hesitated over whether to recognize it as his master with a drop of blood.

Bibi Dong had only told him to keep it temporarily, and she would have to take it back later. But once he recognized it as his master with blood, what the hell was there to take back? He could just say he had lost it.

That was not what Xu Yu was hesitating over. He was hesitating because once he recognized it as his master with blood, he could only become the Sea God.

This was the Sea God's inheritance token. It was said that the ancient Sea God had obtained a Sea God's Heart and refined it into this. After recognizing it as his master with blood, one could receive the Sea God's inheritance. But Xu Yu was deeply conflicted. Should he become the Sea God, or the Asura God?

Or perhaps become both.

Then he would take both. Only elementary school students had to choose.

Tang San could inherit two god positions, so why couldn't he?

With a smug hum, Xu Yu cut open his finger and let his blood drip onto the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, where it slid along its smooth surface and fell to the ground.

Xu Yu's expression turned slightly ugly. He felt like he had been rejected.

That was downright humiliating. Xu Yu's face darkened until it was nearly purple.

"A Lan, come out!"

The Summoning Tome appeared, its Blue Silver Grass page flipping open on its own. A Lan, with her twin ponytails and wide eyes, appeared and sat on Xu Yu's shoulder. She was a little bewildered. Why had Xu Yu called her?

She had been happily wandering around Moss Head's house. Moss Head had so many treasures, and he would not get angry if she took some.

"Have fun with it!"

The Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud was tossed into the air. A Lan hurriedly caught it with both little hands and held it against her chest. The thing, upon touching A Lan, began radiating blinding light like a lovestruck lapdog. An immense, boundless oceanic aura spread outward through the tiny room.

Perhaps because it sensed the aura of another god, the vast sea aura did not leave the room. It merely filled the room to the brim. Xu Yu's most direct sensation was that he had been dropped into the ocean. Fortunately, he had once stayed in the southern seas, so he adapted quickly.

Golden Goose, who had been sleeping upstairs, was jolted awake as well. But her swimming skills were poor. She had barely crawled across the floor pretending to swim for a while before she could recover, when she was frozen in place.

Xu Yu was frozen as well.

The Summoning Tome had been challenged. It erupted with a deep green aura of life, confronting the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud's blue aura head-on within the room.

In the end, the rootless Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud was defeated. Only then did the Summoning Tome smugly flip its cover.

At the same time, the immobilization skill inflicted on Xu Yu by the Vast Sea Cosmic Slash was lifted.

Just then, an ancient and calm voice sounded. "This old man's sliver of divine consciousness has slept within the Heart of the Ocean for countless years. After waiting countless years, this old man has finally found a physique capable of bearing the power of the vast sea."

No one should have noticed the voice of this mental imprint. Even A Lan, as the Sea God's inheritor, was too occupied with inheriting the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud to spare it any attention. Yet there happened to be a freak like Xu Yu, a freak who possessed the Summoning Tome.

He heard that voice clearly. Xu Yu's eyes shifted as he cursed inwardly, All lapdogs must die! I have to erase this strand of divine consciousness the Sea God left in the mortal world. What if he bewilders A Lan?

The Summoning Tome was not afraid of the Sea God Consciousness, and Xu Yu became bold as well. Gritting his teeth, he summoned the Chaos Ancient Tree.

The towering ancient tree once again blanketed heaven and earth. Golden Goose's residential district was directly smashed open, with roof tiles and broken bricks scattering everywhere. Beneath the blazing sun, the canopy blocked out the sky, creating its own world beneath the tree.

The Sea God Consciousness also noticed that there was actually a living being not frozen by his consciousness. Just as he was surprised and about to investigate, he was enraged by this insignificant creature from the lower realm.

"Insolence! How dare a lowly mortal act so boldly!"

The Sea God Consciousness was furious. He had only just emerged and had yet to absorb energy, yet the little insect on the ground had controlled the nearby energy. Not only did it prevent him from recovering, it even restricted his movements. How could he not be furious? How could he not be shocked?

"Insolent my ass! Die, lapdog!"

Xu Yu roared. The moment he realized he really could kill the Sea God Consciousness, he was instantly thrilled. He would kill him and nourish himself first.

This old man was not some good person either. Relying on his strength, he arbitrarily divided soul beasts into good and evil. Xu Yu would catch him and devour him first.

Xu Yu never considered himself a good person anyway. When villain met villain, whoever was more ruthless won.

Pope's Palace.

Bibi Dong's brows knitted slightly, but she said nothing. She merely frowned and glanced in the direction of Spirit Hall.

At this moment, a sacred and powerful figure within Spirit Hall was also looking down below. But recalling what his granddaughter had instructed him when she returned earlier, that figure did not make a move. He merely muttered a few words, and in another secret chamber within Spirit Hall, two powerful Titled Douluo opened their eyes and walked out of the chamber where they had secluded themselves for years, utterly confused.

"My young friend, we can discuss things properly. Why resort to violence? Hehe." The old man, dressed in noble and inviolable robes, smiled kindly, like a grandfather next door.

Trying such lowly tricks because he could not win? Would Xu Yu fall for it?

He directly increased his Soul Power output. The Sea God Consciousness could no longer endure it and cursed, "Ant, once this venerable one finds out who you are, bring your head to see me."

"Ant your mother. Die. Come down here if you can."

Xu Yu crushed the Sea God's Divine Sense left in the mortal world with one squeeze and sneered. Did they think he knew nothing?

Did they think Tang San was currently governing the God Realm Committee, when all gods could interfere with the lower realm?

Wait another ten thousand years!

And even then, who knew whether it would be possible.

God Realm. Within a boundless sea domain, a god radiating the mighty aura of raging ocean waves flew into a towering rage. The entire domain trembled and shook beneath his anger.

"Who destroyed the Divine Sense I left in the lower realm?" Amid his fury, this lofty god also pondered where the problem lay.

Based on the strength of the lower realm, there should not have been any force capable of destroying his Divine Sense.

Could inferior quality have worn down his Divine Sense through sheer quantity?

But that was not right either. It had been erased too quickly. There had to be a force of equivalent quality eliminating his Divine Sense.

Had the Asura God, Rakshasa God, or Angel God acted?

The Sea God was incomparably vexed, but no matter what, he would have to swallow this loss. He needed to find an opportunity to test them.

Test whom? The Rakshasa God was the first one, and also the most suspicious.

That dead hag. If it was her, he would tear her apart.

He was not like the Asura God, who presided over the God Realm Committee and had too many concerns when acting. He was carefree, without reservations. If he wanted to do something, he did it.

As for the Divine Sense he had left in the lower realm, it had pained him deeply when he split it off back then. Completely destroying it was simply wishful thinking. If someone wanted to absorb his Divine Sense instead, then hehe.
