Tang San Fails to Snatch Tian Meng's Opportunity

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm sneered. It had seen people beg, but never anyone beg like this.

And using a pig's butt as a threat, no less.

It had thought he was some formidable figure. Turns out he was just useless trash who could only yell and scream.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm made up its mind to ignore the old man and quietly watch his soul gradually turn transparent.

"Bastard, I'll perish with you!" Seeing that Sky Dream Ice Silkworm ignored him, the old man decided to go all out and shouted:

"A fart like thunder, shaking heaven and splitting earth—Luo Sanpao!"

The pig-like creature used every ounce of its strength.

After holding it in for ages,

it merely let out a soft puff. Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was completely unaffected.

Meanwhile, the old man's soul became even more transparent.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm gloated gleefully:

"Hahaha, you're killing me! I was wondering why you looked like a piglet."

"So you really are a piglet—and a farting pig at that."

"Old man, your spiritual essence has already been completely drained. You can't even fart anymore. Next, you won't escape the fate of having your soul scattered."

Hearing this, the old man immediately let out a desperate cry:

"No, I don't want to disappear! I am Yu Gang, the greatest Grandmaster in the history of the Douluo Continent's Soul Master world."

"I did not disgrace my family. I trained a god."

"I am the teacher of Tang San, holder of the dual Godhoods of Sea God and Asura God."

"I don't want to disappear! Little San, your teacher never wanted to stay behind with Erlong in the first place. Why couldn't you take your teacher with you when you ascended to the God Realm? Why..."

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm did not catch the last part.

It only heard the old man say that he had trained a god and that he was the teacher of Tang San, the Sea God from ten thousand years ago.

Holy shit!

It had struck it rich.

It had been worrying that it alone would not be enough to complete the God Creation Project, and it had been preparing to head to the Far North to bring the Ice Empress along. Only then would it have a greater chance of success.

Who would have thought that the person before it was Yu Gang, the theoretical Grandmaster who had taught Sea God Tang San ten thousand years ago?

As Tang San's guide on the path to godhood, he surely knew how Tang San had become a god. He surely knew how one could cultivate and become a god more quickly.

Wasn't this like being handed a pillow just when it was sleepy?

"Grandmaster, don't panic. Tian Meng is here to save you."

With that thought, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm did not dare delay. It hurriedly transferred part of its spiritual essence to Yu Gang to restore him.

But not transferring it would have been one thing.

The moment it did, it nearly made the other party explode from being overstuffed.

This made Tian Meng seriously doubt whether this fellow was truly a Grandmaster or a fake.

His soul was actually this weak.

But then it remembered that this bit of spiritual essence was barely even the tip of a hair from nine oxen to it.

Tian Meng stopped caring about it.

Whatever.

If he was truly a Grandmaster, then it had struck gold.

If he was a fake, it could expel him later.

Who knew how much time passed before Tian Meng finally completed the seal.

The sacrifice also came to an end.

Tang San and Beibei regained consciousness.

"Xiao Ya, what happened to us just now?"

Beibei looked at Huo Yuhao, then at Tang San.

He was utterly stunned.

He had no idea what had happened just now, but suddenly, his body had become unable to move.

Then he lost consciousness.

When he regained the ability to move, he discovered that Huo Yuhao had already collapsed on the ground.

He was unconscious.

His beloved, Tang Ya, was in even worse condition.

Or perhaps terrifying was a more fitting description.

She seemed like an entirely different person. Her eyes had turned crimson, and she was panting like a bull.

It was as if Huo Yuhao were the murderer of her parents.

As for that ten-year Wind Baboon, at some point it had already been sucked dry by her Blue Silver Grass until it was nothing but skin and bones.

Her Blue Silver Grass had also turned pitch-black.

Black smoke poured from it in thick bursts.

She looked just like an Evil Soul Master.

"Xiao Ya, calm down. Don't lose yourself to your martial soul."

Beibei thought Tang San had become like this because of a martial soul mutation. He actually disregarded everything and stepped forward to hug him.

Tang San rarely did not push Beibei away. He merely stared fixedly at Huo Yuhao.

Naturally, he had not lost himself.

After all, absorbing a soul beast's life force and Soul Power to raise his cultivation was not something he had not done in his "previous life."

However, Huo Yuhao had still obtained the opportunity.

As the saying went, destroying someone's path was like killing their parents.

Just now, Huo Yuhao had stolen the ferocious beast's sacrifice that should have belonged to him. He had already earned the right to die.

Tang San should have immediately killed him and taken back that ferocious beast soul bone.

To make up for his losses.

But ferocious beasts were different from Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts.

Their spiritual essence was exceptionally powerful.

They could sacrifice themselves to a Soul Master while retaining their own spiritual essence, thereby preserving the clarity of their souls.

The reason it had sacrificed itself to Huo Yuhao was, most likely, that its limit was approaching.

Because it had no confidence in surviving its next heavenly tribulation, it had chosen to sacrifice itself to Huo Yuhao in search of a chance to linger on.

If Huo Yuhao was lucky, he might even replicate the path to godhood once walked by God King Tang himself.

If this had been his "previous life," Tang San naturally would not have interfered. At most, he would have put a dog chain around him.

After all, he was already a god himself, and he did not lack the resources to make his daughter a god.

Wouldn't it be wonderful to put a dog chain on the Child of Destiny, turning him into a thug for the Tang Family and a dog for God King Tang?

But the problem was that he needed it now.

Therefore, no matter what, Tang San could not give away this opportunity to become a god.

But right now,

that ferocious beast most likely still possessed consciousness and was dwelling within Huo Yuhao's Spirit Sea.

If he rashly struck Huo Yuhao dead, he feared he would be killed in return.

So be it. It was only a ferocious beast's sacrifice, after all.

That alone was not enough to make Huo Yuhao a god.

In other words, there would be further opportunities.

As for that soul bone, he would let Huo Yuhao keep it for now.

Once he had obtained enough opportunities,

it would not be too late to seize that soul bone that should have been his.

At that thought, Tang Ya suddenly reined in all her killing intent. She shoved Beibei away and said coldly:

"Are you looking to die? I believe I told you not to touch me."

As she spoke, she controlled the pitch-black Blue Silver Grass vines behind her, turning them into hard spikes aimed at Beibei.

Beibei neither dodged nor avoided them. Tears streamed down his face as he said:

"Xiao Ya, what exactly happened to you?"

"I'm Beibei! I'm your boyfriend, the person you love most, your only disciple, the eldest disciple of our Tang Sect, Beibei!"

"Have you forgotten who I am?"

You still dare call yourself my boyfriend? Tang San was enraged and was about to act.

But Huo Yuhao woke up at that moment. "Brother Bei, Sister Xiao Ya, what are you doing?"

Tang Ya froze, afraid that Huo Yuhao would distance himself from her and cause her to lose the chance to steal the next opportunity.

So she closed her eyes and pretended to be suffering a backlash from the mutated martial soul, Dark Blue Silver Grass, then fell backward.

Beibei caught her immediately. Large teardrops fell onto Tang San's face as though they cost nothing.

He kept crying things like, "Xiao Ya, you mustn't let anything happen to you! How could I live without you?"

It made Tang San nauseous.

Yet Huo Yuhao was right beside her, so she could not reveal any flaws.

She could only secretly circulate the Mysterious Heaven Skill.

She made her face turn pale and put on an appearance of extreme weakness.

When Beibei saw this, he immediately cried even more sorrowfully.
