You had no idea that the divine being three feet above your head was watching you.

The Divine Realm, the Sea God Temple.

When you broke into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and looted every Immortal Herb there like a swarm of locusts, Tang San's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.

In his eyes, these were his "private assets," left behind for the Tang Sect. You had just earned yourself a "death sentence"!

He gripped the Seagod Trident, wishing he could unleash Divine Punishment at once and crush you, the ignorant ant who didn't know your place!

But he didn't dare.

Across the round table of the God Realm Committee, a pair of purple eyes stared coldly at him.

God King of Destruction!

The oldest enforcer in the Divine Realm had noticed you from the moment you were born.

The aura around you was violent and overbearing, even carrying a hint of destruction. It made him feel an immense sense of kinship, as if he were looking at his younger self.

"Tang San, put away your little schemes. The Divine Realm must not interfere in affairs of the lower realm."

The God King of Destruction's warning left Tang San only able to rage helplessly as he watched you empty his "back garden."

While the two God Kings were locked in their contest, you had already completed your transformation.

The Immortal Herbs from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well had not only tempered your body, but also brought about a qualitative change in your spiritual power.

Epitaph evolved once more!

It could now foresee the future—the next half hour!

In a rapidly changing battle between powerful fighters, being able to see half an hour into the future meant knowing everything and being invincible!

At the same time, the vast medicinal power propelled your Soul Power forward like a mighty force, smashing straight through the level 90 bottleneck!

Quasi-Title Douluo!

Without the slightest hesitation, you used this gift of heaven and earth to make the decision that would leave Du Busi terrified—

Form a second Soul Core! Achieve Yin-Yang Complementary cultivation!

Du Busi stood guard nearby, cold sweat soaking through his back.

This was a gamble with your life! If the two Soul Cores clashed, it would be a nuclear explosion!

Fortunately, you were the chosen one.

A week later, the skies above the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well changed color.

Inside you, two Soul Cores—one upright, one inverted—rotated in perfect harmony like the yin and yang fish of the Taiji symbol, circulating without end!

Success!

At sixteen, you were a Quasi-Title Douluo with Yin-Yang Complementary Dual Soul Cores!

The word genius could no longer describe you. You were a monster who defied common sense!

Feeling the power surging through you like the sea, you were certain: you could now kill a Super Douluo as easily as butchering a dog!

If you activated King Crimson's Time Erasure and paired it with Epitaph's ten-second precognition, even a Level 99 Limit Douluo would fall to your instant, unharmed kill!

And even...

You looked up at the empty sky, a trace of madness flashing in your eyes.

Even if a lofty god dared descend to the mortal realm, you would make him bleed!

In your Spiritual Sea, Snow Empress watched your fearsome figure, and the last trace of misgiving in her heart vanished without a trace.

She knew she had made the right bet.

This young man was destined to trample the world beneath his feet!

As your cultivation broke through, so did your ambition.

For your Ninth Soul Ring, you decided to go big!

Target: the ruler of the deep sea, the sixty-hundred-thousand-year Sea Princess!

It wasn't just for that terrifying age. You also wanted to fill the empty Soul Ring slots of your Second Martial Soul.

Even Du Busi was startled when he heard this audacious plan.

But he didn't try to stop you. Instead, a fierce fighting spirit blazed in his eyes. "Good! That's my disciple, all right! If we're going to kill, we might as well kill the strongest! This old man will go with you!"

You left the Sunset Forest and headed south, straight for the boundless deep sea.

But the eyes in the heavens had not missed your movements.

The Divine Realm, the Sea God Temple.

Through the clouds, Tang San watched your movements with a cold gaze.

"That variable... actually wants to lay a hand on the Sea Princess?"

He wouldn't allow anything beyond his control to appear on Douluo Continent, especially you—a "misfit" who had repeatedly broken the rules.

A divine thought silently descended, rousing an ancient devotee who had been sleeping deep within Sea God Island.

"Go. In the name of the Sea God, wipe out the heretic."

One day later, in the deep-sea region.

This was forbidden territory for humans, where countless giant beasts lurked in the profound darkness.

You activated Epitaph. An eerie red light glimmered in your eyes as you began to work out the Sea Princess's coordinates.

"Found her!"

The beautiful figure of a mermaid flashed across the vision.

But the next second, your expression changed drastically!

The future vision returned by Epitaph was thick with the smell of blood!

Behind the Sea Princess were not only several ten-thousand-year Sea Soul Beast guards, but also a mysterious man clad in a deep-blue robe and wearing the Sea God Helmet!

The man held a scepter, and the nine Soul Rings rising beneath his feet nearly blinded you—

Black, black, black, red, red, red, red, red, red!

Three black and six red! A nine-ring Limit Douluo!

Even through the vision, you could feel a terrifying divine might that seemed capable of crushing the sky!

"Sea God High Priest..."

You instantly guessed his identity.

He was Tang San's watchdog in the mortal world, and Sea God Island's greatest asset!

You had expected Tang San to make a move, but you hadn't expected it to happen so soon—or so ruthlessly!

You immediately turned to Du Busi.

"There's an ambush ahead. The enemy is Sea God Island's High Priest, a Level 99 Limit Douluo with three black and six red Soul Rings. He's carrying a divine weapon!"

"You may have just become a Limit Douluo, but he has the home-field advantage and a divine weapon. A head-on fight would put you at too great a disadvantage! There's no need to throw your life away for me!"

You were being perfectly rational. As long as the green hills remained, you wouldn't need to worry about firewood.

You were saying this for Du Busi's sake.

You had King Crimson and Epitaph. No matter how many enemies showed up, you wouldn't fear them. But your teacher didn't have those abilities.

This was the sea. Even the Evil Eye Tyrant Sovereign might not have the upper hand fighting on the enemy's home ground.

Yet when Du Busi heard your words, he stopped in his tracks.

He looked at the surging waves in the distance. The dark-green poisonous mist around him shot into the sky, instantly corroding the surrounding seawater away!

"Retreat? That word doesn't exist in this old man's dictionary!"

Du Busi turned around, and his aged eyes blazed with an arrogance that looked down on the world!

"Disciple, remember this."

"People from the Body Sect only die fighting. They don't run away like cowards!"

"He's a Limit Douluo, and so am I!"

"We both have two shoulders and one head. Why don't you ask him..."

Du Busi grinned, baring a row of bone-white teeth, his killing intent chilling:

"Does he fear me?!"
