Douluo: I, the Prehistoric Dao Venerable, Am Live-Streamed by the Sky Screen — Section 17

Compared to Di Tian's caution, Gu Yuena felt more regret.

But since there was a substitute mechanism, as long as someone ahead of her died, she would move up. She still had a chance!

"I hope those fools... die sooner rather than later."

[Third-Person Perspective: Tang Chen]

The waves rolled in one after another, while a salty, damp sea breeze drifted past.

Low shrubs and sparse trees surrounded him.

Before him stretched an endless expanse of deep-blue sea.

The audience of Douluo Continent finally saw a different kind of scenery.

Having just arrived in this foreign world, Tang Chen was filled with excitement.

He had not even done anything.

After taking only a few breaths of the spiritual energy here, his cultivation, stagnant for so long, actually began to loosen!

"Good, good, good! This is truly a heaven-sent opportunity. Breaking through to God Level is within reach!"

"But before that, I should find signs of human activity and learn the details of this world before making further plans!"

"Those people before me... what idiots. They died without gathering any information at all!"

Tang Chen had become the leader of a sect, so naturally, he was no reckless brute.

He understood the importance of intelligence better than anyone.

But he had truly wronged those who came before him.

Leaving aside the dead, Ning Rongrong was still being tormented in every conceivable way by that black dog.

Shui Bing'er had fallen into the unfathomable Heavenly Court the moment she arrived. That place was even more terrifying than falling into a nest of Ferocious Beasts.

Simply surviving was already difficult enough. How could they dare investigate anything casually?

Tang Chen searched forward along the beach.

The view here was wide open, making it far safer than the forest. And where there was a beach, there would likely be traces of human activity.

But after taking only a few steps,

he was drawn in by a strange fragrance.

Upon approaching, he saw a bunch of gleaming green grapes floating amid the tide, bobbing with the waves.

"Something good... Could this be a treasure that enhances spiritual power?"

Tang Chen did not consume them rashly. Instead, he leaned in to smell them. Looking, listening, asking, and feeling—this was a habit he had developed through years of experience.

There was no strange sensation.

Instead, a clear and ethereal aura pierced straight into his sea of consciousness, and his spiritual power seemed to increase by a faint trace.

He immediately realized that he had found a treasure.

Without further hesitation,

he swallowed the entire bunch of grapes in one gulp.

A cool sensation spread from his throat before rushing toward the center of his brow.

Within his sea of consciousness,

the lingering fragment of will belonging to "Tang Chen," which had been sealed away for so long, completely dissipated under the medicinal effect.

The aura around him surged higher and higher!

"HAHAHA... From this day onward, I am no longer Tang Chen, nor am I the Blood Red Nine-Headed Bat King—"

He threw back his head and laughed.

"I am the God of Slaughter!"

He and Tang Chen had always been one entity. He was merely another personality born from Bloody Mary, Asura God power, and Rakshasa God power.

Now, with the help of the Sea Grapes, his spiritual power had soared, and the two had finally fused.

The bottleneck broke through along with it!

[Tang Chen obtained one bunch of Sea Grapes. Cultivation: Level 99 -> Level 100 (God Official)]

"My god... Tang Chen became a god??"

"Sea Grapes? A divine fruit that grows in the sea? It can actually make someone a god directly!"

"I don't think so... Didn't he pick them up on the beach? Look by the reef ahead... isn't there another bunch floating there?"

"Ah... Why wasn't I the one chosen?"

As soon as the Sky Screen's notification appeared, the entirety of Douluo Continent could no longer remain calm.

Previously, after seeing others die miserable deaths, they had feared the Prehistoric World as if it were a den of beasts.

But now that they saw opportunities falling from the heavens,

they instantly felt like they could do it too!

Within the Clear Sky Sect,

the moment they witnessed Tang Chen become a god, the entire place erupted!

Their Clear Sky Sect—had a god now!

And he was even a "God Official," which sounded far more impressive than any Angel God or Sea God!

"HAHAHA! Cang Tian has eyes!"

"Our more than ten years of endurance... were not in vain!"

The Second Elder wept with joy, his voice trembling.

"Spirit Hall... My son's blood debt can finally be repaid!"

"My son, wait for me... Once the Sect Master returns, Father will certainly avenge you!"

The Seventh Elder was also reduced to tears.

"Grandfather truly became a god... In that case, Brother Hao might... still have hope of recovering."

Even Tang Xiao, who had always been steady and composed, could barely contain his excitement.

Not only could the Clear Sky Sect reclaim its former glory, but his younger brother Tang Hao's severed arm might also be restored.

After all, that was an omnipotent god!

What was more, Tang Chen had always doted on Tang Hao the most.

On the beach,

Tang Chen was carefully searching for any possible Spirit Fruits when a childish yet arrogant voice suddenly rang out.

"Hey! Where did this barbarian come from? Don't you know this whole area is my territory?"

A little brat of around three or four years old stood there.

He wore a red bellyband, his hair tied into two upright pigtails, with one foot planted atop a protruding reef.

He glared over with an arrogant expression.

"Barbarian? Are you talking about me?"

Tang Chen was first stunned, then his face darkened.

But remembering that he still needed to find someone to learn about this world, he forcibly suppressed his anger.

"Take me to your village. I can let today's matter go."

"Otherwise... don't blame me for being rude."

Tang Chen walked over and looked down at the child in the red bellyband.

"You want me to lead the way? Sure!"

The child in the red bellyband grinned.

He extended a small hand toward Tang Chen, and his meaning could not have been clearer.

"Heh... In all these years, you're the first person who dared hold out a hand and demand benefits from me!"

Tang Chen laughed in extreme anger.

The people of the Clear Sky Sect were even more enraged, feeling that this child was simply humiliating their sect.

They all clamored for Tang Chen to kill him!

But to everyone's surprise, Tang Chen actually took out a jeweled shortsword from his soul tool storage ring.

"That sword—the Clear Sky Sword! The Sect Master is actually willing to take it out!"

The Second Elder cried out in shock.
