Deep in the clouds, inside a magnificent and sacred palace.
A handsome man in blue robes and armor stood with his long blue hair falling over his shoulders. His brows furrowed as he stared at a mirror rippling like water.
The mirror showed Liu Feng and the Scarlet King sprinting through the forest.
Sea God Tang San let out a cold laugh and murmured to himself,
"The child of great fortune has appeared. If my guess is right, that million-year-old Soul Beast that escaped may cross paths with him..."
"The Douluo Plane really does favor him. Is it making one last, desperate struggle, unwilling to be controlled by my Tang family?"
He, the great Sea God Tang San, had left his parents in the lower realm after ascending to godhood.
One had seized the source of life in the Douluo Plane, while the other had taken control of its heavenly authority, determined to change the Douluo Plane's name to Tang!
After ten thousand years of effort, their plan was already halfway complete.
He had seen through the Douluo Plane's final struggle and prepared to tame its child of fortune.
He had even gone so far as to tear his own daughter in half for this purpose.
So that she could retrace the course of his own life.
But Liu Feng's sudden appearance had thrown his plans into disarray.
Liu Feng had comprehended the Law of Nature!
There was a consensus in the Divine Realm: anyone who touched a law was destined to become a god!
They would become a successor whom the gods would scramble to claim.
If that really happened, the arrangements Tang San had made in the Douluo Plane might be exposed.
"Why now, of all times?"
Tang San's expression darkened. He could not allow any unexpected events!
But he couldn't act directly against the Douluo Plane just yet. That would surely put the other God Kings on alert!
Especially the Destruction God King, who was always at odds with him.
"The Elf King's bloodline—what kind of mongrel is this? I absolutely can't let him ruin my grand plan!"
Sea God Tang San pressed his hands together, then thrust them toward the lower realm.
A gentle blue light immediately drifted down.
He had to conceal the workings of fate in the Douluo Plane!
Under no circumstances could he let the other gods turn their attention to Liu Feng!
Just as he finished, a surge of divine power appeared outside the palace.
"!!!"
Tang San hurriedly waved away the mirror and gave a dry cough, pretending nothing was amiss.
A purple figure appeared at just the right moment. It was the Destruction God King.
The Destruction God King gave Tang San a cold look. "Sea God, what are you doing?"
"..."
Sea God Tang San instinctively held his breath. Had he been discovered?
He still wasn't a match for the Destruction God King!
If the other man found an excuse to act, then his grand plan...
At that moment, Sea God Tang San's heart pounded. He forced an ugly smile.
"What is it, Senior Destruction?"
The Destruction God King was taken aback and looked at Sea God Tang San in surprise.
Senior? When Sea God Tang San had first arrived in the Divine Realm, that was what he had called him.
But as his cultivation advanced, he had demoted him from Senior to Big Brother. Lately, he had even started calling him by his name!
"What are you doing? We're heading to the Forbidden Land of Gods today to inspect the Golden Dragon King's seal. How could you forget something so important?!"
The Destruction God King's expression soured. He spoke coldly.
"I... I was confused."
Sea God Tang San let out a breath of relief and put on a smiling face, inwardly overjoyed.
The Douluo Plane, the Star Dou Great Forest.
The purple orb floating above Liu Feng's head suddenly trembled. Flecks of starlight drifted from it, as though it were trying to convey some message.
Liu Feng was slightly startled. He could sense the Sprite Dragon Egg's urgency and warning.
But how could he possibly think of the Divine Realm right now?
"Liu Feng, what happened?"
The Scarlet King noticed Liu Feng's reaction and asked in confusion.
"Nothing..."
Liu Feng shook his head and put the matter out of his mind.
The Sprite Dragon actually possessed god-level strength. It would hatch once he reached level sixty, and its level was bound to his.
It had yet to hatch, but its spiritual nature was even stronger. Unfortunately, there was nothing he could do about it.
"Whoosh...!"
Liu Feng caught sight of a flash of red and casually loosed an arrow.
A glimmer of light floated out of the Sprite Dragon Egg and attached itself to the arrow.
The next instant, the red shape dropped out of the treetops.
It was a red-tailed Brocade Chicken.
The Scarlet King tossed it onto his back. He had already collected more than a dozen, all shot down by Liu Feng.
Liu Feng smiled. "That's enough. We don't need any more."
The Scarlet King nodded all three heads and was just about to speak.
Suddenly, an angry roar from the Three-Eyed Golden Lion rang out in the northwest.
Without a word, the Scarlet King turned into a streak of fiery red and charged over with Liu Feng.
In just a few swift breaths, they raced through layer upon layer of trees.
They found the Three-Eyed Golden Lion pounding tree trunks in a fit of rage. She had grown to seven or eight meters tall, her sharp claws felling one tree after another.
"Creak...!"
Another great tree snapped in half beneath her claws!
It crashed heavily to the ground.
The golden flames around her surged even more fiercely, making her look like a little sun ablaze.
"Auspicious Beast, what happened?"
The Scarlet King let out a breath of relief and asked.
When the Three-Eyed Golden Lion saw them, she let out another roar.
"Roar...!!!"
Her voice brimmed with resentment.
"That useless Sky Dream Ice Silkworm! He actually deceived me! He promised he'd sacrifice himself to Liu Feng, so I let him go. But then he ran off!"
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion spat out furiously, explaining what had happened and how the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had tricked her.
She had wanted to give Liu Feng a grand gift, but the gift had grown legs and run away!
"..."
Liu Feng scratched his head. This friend of his really was loyal, though unfortunately, she wasn't very bright.
He had actually guessed that the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm would leave soon. He hadn't planned to interfere.
After all, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had been imprisoned for ten thousand years. He deserved to be free before he died.
But Liu Feng hadn't expected the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm to use his name to deceive the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
That left Liu Feng thoroughly displeased.
"What?!"
The Scarlet King was shocked. The Ferocious Beasts had been able to rapidly increase their cultivation and safely endure ten thousand years thanks to the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, their walking blood bank.
Now the Three-Eyed Golden Lion had let the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm escape...
He fell silent for a moment, then tried to comfort her.
"Don't worry, Auspicious Beast. Di Tian won't blame you..."
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion stared at him in confusion, her voice crisp.
"Who said I was worried about that?"
"Uh...?" The Scarlet King froze.
"That useless worm was a gift from me to Liu Feng! How dare he run away instead of obediently sacrificing himself! I'm going to tear him to pieces!!!"
"But... but I couldn't catch him! I lost his scent!"
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion swung her claws again, smashing the broken trunk beside her.
Wood chips flew everywhere, then were burned to ash by her flames.
"..."
The Scarlet King was at a loss. This little tyrant truly didn't have a care in the world.
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm might have been weak, but his spiritual power was incredibly strong. He could hide his presence while escaping, and even the Scarlet King had no way to track him.
Liu Feng closed his eyes and took a deep breath, touching the Law of Nature.
Since the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had used his name to escape, Liu Feng couldn't just let it go!
Suddenly, he opened his eyes. "I know which way he went!"
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion and the Scarlet King both turned to him, their eyes alight with excitement and hope.
"Liu Feng, hurry and tell me! I'm going to tear him apart! I'll eat his brains!"
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion spoke with murderous intent.
