[The brutal comparison—killing and breaking hearts!]

Left Side:

To stay alive, Tang San pinched his nose and forced down the foul-smelling human blood known as "Yellow Spring Dew," then had to suppress his nausea and kill people afterward.

To open Hell Road, he slaughtered people on the arena like a mad dog, his body covered in wounds.

Every victory had been bought with his life.

Right Side:

Tang Shan held his Great-Grandfather's hand, drank the top-grade heavenly treasure known as "Blood Bodhi Sap," and chatted merrily.

The so-called "Hundred Victories" rule?

Before him, it was a joke!

Tang Shan looked at the Heavenly Screen on the left, and the corner of his mouth could not help twitching slightly.

"Was the Heavenly Screen bullying Tang San because he didn't know what the future looked like?

It was actually deliberately, or perhaps unintentionally, altering the details to heighten the contrast between the two sides."

"But whatever. As long as it feels good."

Under this comparison, the more miserable Tang San was, the better Tang Shan felt!

"I wonder whether the God Realm knows about this Heavenly Screen."

Tang Shan suddenly became interested and thought to himself.

One day in the God Realm was one year in the Mortal Realm.

How long had it been since the Heavenly Screen appeared?

In the God Realm, perhaps only a few breaths had passed.

"Come to think of it, I need to hurry up next."

Tang Shan wrapped an arm around Qian Renxue's waist and murmured inwardly.

Though he was only fourteen now, he had already reached the point of inheriting a Divine Throne.

Both the Life Nine Trials and the Destruction Nine Trials had reached their final trial.

In fact, if Tang Shan wanted to, he could become a Dual God King at any time.

But Tang Shan felt that would be too boring.

After becoming a god, according to the rules of the God Realm, one had to ascend to the God Realm within a short time.

Although Tang Shan did not care much for these so-called rules of the God Realm, there was no need to oppose the second and third guardians of those rules—the Goddess of Life and the God King of Destruction. It was completely unnecessary.

What Tang Shan needed to do now was turn the Douluo Continent completely into the Tang Family's private domain.

And while he was at it, he would make arrangements on the other continents as well.

Although Soul Tool technology had not yet developed to the level it would reach twenty or thirty thousand years later, Tang Shan still had to do something.

"If the God Realm sees Gu Yuena in the Star Dou Great Forest, they'll definitely make a move.

Perhaps..."

Tang Shan's eyes flickered slightly.

"Perhaps after the Goddess of Life and the God King of Destruction pass their Divine Thrones to me, they'll even ask me to destroy Gu Yuena."

"Tsk."

On the Heavenly Screen.

[Hell Road—Opened!]

Tang Chen brought Tang Shan to the entrance of Hell Road.

There was no need to Sacrifice any soul masters. Tang Chen directly mobilized Asura Divine Power and forcibly tore open a spatial rift!

"Shan'er, it's a little hot down in Hell Road. Bear with it."

"If that Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent dares to come out and cause trouble, just give it your Great-Grandfather's name. It won't dare touch you."

"As for that Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King...

I gave it a beating last time, and it's very obedient now. It could probably serve as your mount."

Tang Chen rambled on with his instructions and even wanted to accompany Tang Shan personally.

In the end, Tang Shan politely declined on the grounds that he needed to gain insight on his own.

Even so, Tang Chen still imbued Tang Shan with a strand of Asura Divine Sense to ensure that nothing could go wrong.

Seeing this, Tang Shan clicked his tongue inwardly again.

"Come to think of it, after Asura bestowed another God Trial upon Great-Grandfather some time ago...

Great-Grandfather has already reached the seventh trial and will soon complete the first nine trials. This assessment has no difficulty at all!"

[One day later]

The scene flashed.

Only one day had passed.

Tang Shan emerged from the other end of Hell Road in spotless white robes.

The white Divine Slaughter's Domain swirled around him, and his aura was deeper and more restrained than before he entered.

There was no wretchedness, no madness, no psychological distortion.

It was as if he had gone on a trip and casually brought back a souvenir—the Divine Slaughter's Domain.

[Real World Audience Seats]

"Pfft—!!!"

This time, Tang San did not even have the strength to scream.

Tang San rolled his eyes back, his body convulsing violently as blood sprayed from his mouth, dyeing the table before him red.

"Cheating... this is cheating..."

"I refuse to accept this... I refuse..."

The hatred in Tang San's heart was overwhelming!

In Hell Road, that Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King had chased him like a dog, while the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent had driven him into a desperate corner.

He had even been forced to use Hu Liena as a shield.

And what about Tang Shan?

The Bat King was his mount? The Fierce Yang Serpent did not dare touch him?

Even the terrifying King of Slaughter was his biological grandfather, ready whenever he called!

"What was there left to compare? How was this supposed to be compared?!"

Oscar and Ma Hongjun looked at Tang San, who was already on the verge of death, then exchanged glances, their eyes full of sympathy.

"Third Brother... why don't we stop watching?

If this continues, I'm afraid you'll really die here..."

However, the Heavenly Screen clearly had no intention of letting Tang San off.

Just as Tang San was barely clinging to life, the Heavenly Screen shook once more. A new title slowly emerged, carrying an even more horrifying amount of information!

[Comparison Continues!]

[Event Six: Xiao Wu's Resurrection! VS Xiao Wu's Death?]

[Original World: A desperate elegy in the Star Dou Great Forest, a helpless and furious parting of life and death!]

[Current World: ???]

[Original World · Sunset Forest · Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes]

In the scene, Tang San had a head of white hair. His expression was haggard, yet filled with an almost crazed persistence.

To revive Xiao Wu, he had paid far too much.

Stripping away his soul rings, breaking his own Spirit Bones, searching for Sacred Soul Grass and the Ninth-Rank Ginseng King...

Every step had been a gamble with his life, an exchange paid for in blood.

Now, within the uniquely blessed environment of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes, Tang San had finally gathered every condition.

"Come back to life! My beloved!!!"

Tang San's voice trembled as he stripped away his soul rings and Spirit Bones bit by bit.

The bone-deep pain made his whole body convulse, but he endured it without uttering a sound.

As the Sea God's Light poured in, the Soft Bone Rabbit finally slowly transformed into human form amid the radiance.

"Brother..."

When Xiao Wu's familiar voice sounded once more, Tang San burst into tears and tightly embraced his beloved, whom he had regained after losing her.

This should have been a deeply moving reunion.

It should have been a perfect ending after countless hardships.

Yet against the scene on the Heavenly Screen on the Right Side, that emotion instantly changed. It became a suffocating irony and sorrow.

[Current World · Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect · Back Mountain Forbidden Area]

The scene shifted. It was no longer the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes, filled with the fragrance of medicinal herbs, but an exquisite courtyard shrouded in layers of formations.

The courtyard was beautifully landscaped, complete with artificial hills and flowing water. It was even more luxurious than an ordinary noble residence.

Yet this place was a cage.

A cage specially prepared for a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!

In the scene, Xiao Wu of the Current World sat despondently on a swing, her hollow eyes fixed on the sky.

She wore a magnificent long dress specially made by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, but around her neck was an exquisite Soul Tool that sealed her Soul Power—a collar.
