Seventh on the Golden Ranking! The First Angel God Exposed!

Dai Mubai, Oscar, and the others also chimed in one after another.

Regardless of Yu Xiaogang's own personal strength, his theories were indeed the cornerstone of everyone's growth.

Having received the affirmation of his disciples, Yu Xiaogang felt as if he had been injected with a stimulant, and his entire being became invigorated.

The jealousy and unwillingness on his face were swept away, replaced by a fanatical self-confidence.

"That's right! My theories must be exotic treasures!"

He said excitedly.

"It's just that the Golden Ranking hasn't reached my treasures yet!"

His eyes shone with light, and his breathing became heavy.

"We are only at the eighth place right now; Bibi Dong's Rakshasa Demon Scythe is nothing more than that!"

"My Spirit Master theory is the culmination of my life's work, the crystallization of wisdom, and the key to opening a new era! It is guaranteed to reach the top three, or even..."

Yu Xiaogang's voice paused, and an unprecedented brilliance erupted in his eyes.

"Or even number one on the continent!"

"Number one on the Exotic Treasures Ranking?!"

Flender stood to the side, listening in stunned silence.

"It's very possible!"

Yu Xiaogang nodded heavily, his entire being lost in a wondrous fantasy.

He felt that it was only natural for his theories to surpass all the divine artifacts and immortal herbs on the continent and take the top spot on the ranking.

After all, those things were inanimate objects, while his theories were alive—priceless treasures capable of creating the future!

At the mere thought of his name and his theories hanging high at the top of the Sky Screen, receiving the worship of the entire continent, Yu Xiaogang trembled with excitement.

"I, Yu Xiaogang, shall once again shake the continent with my name!"

While the Douluo Continent was undergoing tumultuous changes due to the Divine Ranking.

On the edge of the distant Sun Moon Continent, that Endless Sea which separated the two continents remained in a state of ancient tranquility.

At this moment, the Sun Moon Continent had not yet connected with the tectonic plates of the Douluo Continent.

The sea and sky blended into one, a boundless expanse of azure.

"Splash—"

A massive shadow broke through the surface of the water, kicking up towering waves.

It was a giant shark over thirty meters in length. Its entire body was a deep, dark blue, and its streamlined frame was packed with explosive power. It was none other than the overlord of the sea, the Demon Soul Great White Shark.

However, in the next second, this behemoth radiating a terrifying aura was enveloped in a soft blue light.

Within the radiance, its massive body rapidly shrank and transformed, eventually shifting into a stunningly beautiful girl with a graceful figure, hovering silently in mid-air.

She had long, silver hair reaching down to her waist, which fluttered gently in the sea breeze. A pair of eyes, as pure and clear as sapphires, gazed forward, filled with awe and adoration.

The girl wore a form-fitting blue dress that perfectly outlined her slender and well-proportioned body.

Her skin was as fair as snow, her waist was slim, and her legs were shapely and long. Her bare, jade-like feet hung in the air, with delicate ankles and toes as round and cute as pearls.

She was none other than the princess of the Demon Soul Great White Shark clan, a soul beast cultivated by Lu Ming to a level of two hundred thousand years of cultivation: Bai Xiuxiu.

Before her, a figure in white stood with his back to her, his hands clasped behind his back as he stood upon the surface of the sea. His robes fluttered, making him look like an immortal descended from the heavens.

It was Lu Ming.

"Master, where are we going?"

Bai Xiuxiu spoke respectfully, her voice crisp and melodious, like wind chimes.

Lu Ming slowly turned around, his deep gaze fixed on the distance, as if piercing through endless space to see that continent—both familiar and strange.

He reached out and gently patted Bai Xiuxiu on the head.

The movement was soft and carried a hint of warmth.

"Back to the Douluo Continent."

His voice was calm, yet it contained an indisputable sense of resolve.

"Yes, Master."

Bai Xiuxiu nodded obediently, without the slightest hesitation.

The next moment, her figure was once again wrapped in blue light, transforming back into that mighty and majestic Demon Soul Great White Shark.

Lu Ming moved, landing silently on Bai Xiuxiu's broad back.

"Let's go."

"Yes!"

Bai Xiuxiu let out an excited hiss, and her massive tail fin lashed out violently.

BOOM!

The surface of the sea exploded. A white wake, like an arrow released from a bow, streaked rapidly toward the direction of the Douluo Continent.

Across the vast and boundless Endless Sea, a white wake tore through the ancient tranquility, speeding toward the Douluo Continent and vanishing into the horizon where the sea met the sky in the blink of an eye.

It was at this very moment that the Divine Ranking, which spanned the firmament of the Douluo Continent with ten thousand rays of golden light, underwent another change.

The eighth-place entry belonging to the Rakshasa Demon Scythe gradually faded away, and new golden ancient characters began to slowly coalesce upon the Sky Screen.

Across the entire continent, countless eyes held their breath once more, staring fixedly at the sky.

Hum—

The golden light flared brilliantly. The phantom of a holy sword, magnificent in design and wreathed in golden flames, appeared upon the Divine Ranking.

Intricate and sacred patterns were carved into the holy sword, and at its crossguard, six wings spread wide, radiating an aura of light that purified all evil.

Even as a mere phantom, it bathed the entire continent in a warm, holy radiance.

Following this, lines of new text appeared.

[Douluo Exotic Treasures Ranking, Seventh Place, Angel Holy Sword!]

[This sword was originally forged by a certain supreme existence to seal a source of evil!]

As the words fell, the images on the Sky Screen shifted.

It was the peak of an ancient mountain range. The holy sword was plunged into a pitch-black altar, its golden flames burning fiercely, suppressing the black mist that churned endlessly beneath the altar.

[Twenty thousand years ago, a woman named Qian Yuhan arrived at this place. Possessing peerless talent, she sought to gather the faith of the mortal realm, draw this sword, and attain the throne of the Angel God.]

In the image, a stunningly beautiful woman appeared, clad in golden armor and looking heroic and spirited.

She gazed at the Angel Holy Sword before her, her golden eyes filled with surprise and longing.

The path to godhood was right before her!

However, the moment she reached out her hand to grasp the hilt, a blue figure quietly appeared behind her.

It was a middle-aged man with a dignified expression, holding a trident.

Sea God, Poseidon.

[The first-generation Sea God Poseidon appeared to prevent Qian Yuhan from attaining godhood.]

[Poseidon believed that the sufferings of the world could not be solved by divine power alone, yet there was no need for everyone to become a god; his own strength was sufficient to save all living beings.]

[Qian Yuhan denounced the Sea God as utterly hypocritical, claiming his words and actions were merely to consolidate his own divine position and cut off the paths of those who would follow.]

In the scene, Qian Yuhan and Poseidon were arguing fiercely. The clash of their ideologies made the atmosphere tense, as if on the verge of a battle.

The Sea God, having his true intentions exposed, flew into a rage. He chose to launch a sneak attack from behind just as Qian Yuhan was exerting her full strength to draw her sword, intending to kill her in a single blow!

Boom!

Golden divine power and blue divine power collided with a deafening roar.

At the critical moment of drawing her sword, Qian Yuhan was unable to divert her attention to defend herself. The trident, imbued with the power of the boundless ocean, ruthlessly pierced through her heart from behind!

"Pfft—"

A mouthful of golden divine blood sprayed out, and Qian Yuhan's aura withered to the extreme in an instant.
