[51st: Clear Sky Sect, Tang Chen, Strength: Peerless Douluo (Parasitized State)!]
Hiss!
At that moment, hundreds of millions across Douluo Continent fell silent. No one had expected that if this mysterious voice decided to make a move, it would make such a huge one!
What did Peerless Douluo mean? It meant a Level 99 Demigod on Earth!
Their strength was so immense that a single strike could collapse mountains, split seas, and redirect rivers!
At that level, they were utterly legendary existences on Douluo Continent!
And although Tang Chen had vanished for decades, his name still rang like thunder!
"Hahaha, there's no need to watch the rest. With the legendary Peerless Douluo, the Clear Sky Douluo, where in the world can't we go?"
"That's right. A mere Mysterious Land can be entered and exited at will before a Peerless Douluo. It's nothing more than a backyard!"
"I never thought the Clear Sky Douluo, who disappeared so many years ago, was actually still alive."
"Yeah, no one expected Tang Chen to still be alive. Looks like the Clear Sky Sect is about to return to its peak!"
Spirit City, Spirit Hall. As the Pope, Bibi Dong stared gravely at the middle-aged man on the Light Screen above, dressed in a blood-red robe and entirely wrapped in a massive scarlet cloak with a high collar. He had red hair and red eyes.
This was different from the Tang Chen in her memories...
"Is he really Tang Chen? Tang Chen, the Clear Sky Douluo known as invincible on land?"
"That's right. Though his appearance has changed, he is definitely Tang Chen, the Clear Sky Douluo, who stood alongside me as one of the Two Mountains of the Soul Master World!"
Qian Daoliu, the master of Spirit Hall's Elder Hall, its Great Offering, and also the master of Douluo Hall, had appeared beside Bibi Dong at some point. His expression was grave to the extreme.
As both rival and friend, no one understood Tang Chen's strength better than he did. Tang Chen had been slightly stronger than him!
Only...
"What the hell happened to this guy? How did he turn into something neither human nor ghost?"
Clear Sky Sect. At this moment, the entire Clear Sky Sect had completely erupted.
No one had expected the Clear Sky Douluo, whom they thought long dead, to still be alive!
"Wonderful! Grandfather is alive, and he has even obtained a tremendous opportunity. Grandfather's opportunity is the Clear Sky Sect's opportunity!"
Though Tang Chen had changed drastically, Tang Xiao could still vaguely see his former appearance. He nearly burst into tears.
The Clear Sky Sect might have been powerful, with seven Title Douluo and the title of Number One Sect Under Heaven, but first Tang Chen, their strongest expert, had vanished without a trace. Then Tang Hao, his younger brother and the man once known as the strongest of the younger generation, had disappeared as well. The enormous Clear Sky Sect had been supported by Tang Xiao alone.
In recent years, Spirit Hall had grown increasingly powerful. Even with the promise established after Grandfather's battle against Qian Daoliu of Spirit Hall, the enemy's constant growth meant their own relative weakness!
Now, things were different. As long as Grandfather returned, the Clear Sky Sect would truly deserve its title as the Number One Sect Under Heaven, capable of confronting Spirit Hall head-on!
"Sect Master, don't celebrate too soon. Haven't you noticed that the Old Sect Master's condition doesn't look very good?"
Second Elder pointed at the Light Screen in the sky, his tone filled with worry.
"What's there to fear? As long as Grandfather is alive, there's nothing to fear. Grandfather is a Level 99 Peerless Douluo, a Demigod on Earth. As long as he isn't dead, what can't he solve?"
Tang Xiao held absolute worship for his Grandfather, not only because Tang Chen was his Grandfather, but also because Tang Chen had personally raised the Clear Sky Sect to the position of Number One Sect Under Heaven!
Holy Soul Village. When Tang Chen appeared, Tang Hao froze completely, staring fixedly at the Light Screen overhead. No one knew what he was thinking.
"This is wonderful, Grandfather. You're alive. This is truly wonderful!"
The next moment, both the speed and force of his hammering changed drastically from usual...
At the same time, Tang San, who was training at Shrek Academy, had been strolling through the streets with Xiao Wu. The sudden broadcast from the Mysterious Land made them stop and look up at the Light Screen together.
When Tang Chen appeared, Tang San could not help choking up.
"Great-Grandfather, it's Great-Grandfather! Cough, cough, cough!"
Seeing this, Xiao Wu hurriedly reached out and hugged Tang San to comfort him.
"San Ge, don't get worked up. Your injuries haven't healed yet. If you become too emotional, it'll worsen them."
It had to be said that this God King might not listen to what others said, but when it came to Xiao Wu's words, he would listen to nine and a half out of ten. As for the remaining half, after hesitating for a moment, he would listen to that too.
Thus, with Xiao Wu's comfort, Tang San forcibly calmed the turmoil in his heart and nodded heavily.
"Xiao Wu, you're right. I have to recover as quickly as possible. Only after I'm healed will I have hope of taking revenge!"
The moment he thought of that hateful face, always wearing a smile as though it had seen through everything, Tang San's expression darkened.
Who exactly is that bastard? Why is he always one step ahead of me?!
[61st: Spirit Hall, Qian Renxue, Strength: Soul Saint!]
Whoosh!
Whether it was Bibi Dong, the Pope of Spirit Hall, or Qian Daoliu, the Great Offering standing beside her, both their expressions changed dramatically.
Other Soul Masters were confident that, with the power of Soul Masters, they would surely be able to roam freely through the Mysterious Land. But the two of them knew very well that since the mysterious voice had specifically emphasized surviving, the Mysterious Land must possess great opportunities but also no small amount of danger. They would not have cared much if a powerful expert had been chosen, but they had never expected Qian Renxue to be selected!
"Damn it! Who was it that dared choose Xiao Xue?!"
Qian Daoliu could no longer suppress his fury. Qian Renxue was his granddaughter. Though there were all kinds of messy and filthy matters involved, the fact that she was his granddaughter could never be denied!
The next moment, a colossal phantom with an indistinct face appeared behind him. It was the legendary Martial Soul, the Six-Winged Angel!
"Don't panic. It hasn't reached a dead end yet."
Though Bibi Dong hated and despised Qian Renxue, seeing her as the most humiliating mark upon her life, what mother in this world did not love her child? The love she held for Qian Renxue was no less than anyone else's!
"Someone from Spirit Hall was selected before. I'll notify him immediately and make sure he protects Xue'er! Even if he dies, he must not let a single hair on Xue'er's head be harmed!"
Heaven Dou Empire. Qian Renxue, who had impersonated Xue Qinghe, froze for a moment before her expression changed drastically.
"Damn it, why did this have to happen at such a crucial time..."
Her plan to seize the Heaven Dou Empire had already reached its critical stage. If Xue Qinghe, the Crown Prince, suddenly vanished for a year, even an idiot would know something was wrong. All her prior schemes would be wasted!
"Damn it!"
Though unwilling, she now had no choice but to leave the Heaven Dou Empire!
But the next moment, Qian Renxue froze, and the smile on her face became impossible to conceal!
There was no other reason: the greatest obstacle to her plan of usurping the throne had also won the draw!
[62nd: Heaven Dou Empire, Xue Ye, Strength: Soul Douluo!]
With Xue Ye, the old emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire, gone, even if she was absent, the plans she had left behind would be more than enough to take down the Heaven Dou Empire. It might not be a hundred percent certain, but it was surely nine out of ten!
If the people left behind still could not seize the Heaven Dou Empire during the year the old emperor was gone, then she would truly have to wonder whether those people had brains at all...
