You Have Courted Death!

["So this is the Sea God?"

Di Tian narrowed his golden dragon eyes slightly as he looked at the man before him.

When the First-Generation Shrek Seven Devils ascended ten thousand years ago, he and the other Ferocious Beasts had been in collective seclusion within the Star Dou Great Forest, so he had no idea what the Sea God looked like.

Granted, Shrek Academy had statues of the First-Generation Shrek Seven Devils.

But during every previous beast tide, he had been fighting each successive Master of the Sea God Pavilion to the death outside Shrek City.

He had never paid attention to those chunks of stone inside Shrek City.

Di Tian composed himself and said:

"Sea God Tang San, you have already ascended to the God Realm. Are you still going to use this divine-sense avatar to interfere with the lower realm?"

He had originally come here intending to test his strength against what the Sea God had left behind.

But he could not allow himself to lose the upper hand, so he took the initiative and questioned him first.

Tang San's divine-sense avatar's expression changed slightly at those words.

He thought of that God King in the God Realm who constantly watched him—more diligently than even Xiao Wu watched him—and his expression darkened.

Although this divine-sense avatar had been left behind to protect the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

Interfering with the lower realm was still interfering with the lower realm.

If the God of Destruction found out, then by Douluo Continent's reckoning of time, he would probably be pestered for centuries.

Thus, Tang San snapped angrily:

"Presumptuous! You destroyed my Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, and I protected it. What is wrong with that?!"

He paused, and his voice turned even sharper:

"Besides, this divine-sense avatar was left behind before I ascended to the God Realm."

"At the time, I had not yet gone to the God Realm. So how could this divine-sense avatar be considered interference with the lower realm?!"

Di Tian looked at Tang San's furious face but did not continue pressing him.

After all, he had not come here to debate.

Di Tian turned his head and carefully examined the Dragon Bones of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings.

His gaze lingered upon the crystalline, jade-like bones for a moment before he spoke bluntly:

"These two Dragon Bones are the remains of my Dragon Clan's forebears. They cannot be left for petty men to exploit any longer. I must take them away today."

"Di Tian, you have courted death!"

Hearing himself called a petty man, Tang San's fury flared instantly.

He had always been the one taking advantage of others. Since when had anyone been allowed to take advantage of him?

"These two Dragon Bones became ownerless after the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings died!"

Tang San enunciated every word:

"And since they fell into my Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, I am their new master!"

He paused and slowly raised his right hand, golden light gathering in his palm.

"And you..."

Tang San's voice suddenly turned icy.

"Are merely an insect that twists words and reason! Now, accept Divine Punishment!"

The moment his words fell, Tang San brought down his raised right hand.

The sky suddenly darkened.

Dark clouds surged in from every direction. Bolts of golden lightning writhed through the clouds, unleashing deafening roars.

"Boom!!!"

A bolt of golden lightning crashed down from the clouds with world-destroying force, striking straight at Di Tian!

Before the lightning even reached Di Tian, its terrifying pressure had already cracked the earth beneath his feet.

Divine Punishment was an attack condensed by a god using the power of faith. Its might needed no explanation.

Yet Di Tian faced this attack from a God Level powerhouse.

Without dodging, evading, or retreating!

He drew a deep breath and clenched his right fist, purple Soul Power gathering wildly around it.

He threw a punch, meeting it head-on!

"Boom!!!"

A purple fist shadow shot out from Di Tian, carrying the force to rend heaven and earth as it collided head-on with Tang San's Divine Punishment!

"Overestimating yourself!"

Seeing that Di Tian not only made no attempt to dodge but even dared to meet it head-on, Tang San's lips curled upward as he secretly mocked him.

He, Tang San, the "God of Voyeurism," had monitored every corner of Douluo Continent for the sake of his ten-thousand-year grand plan.

Naturally, he knew of Di Tian, the Beast God of the Star Dou Great Forest.

He also knew that Di Tian had only cultivated for over eight hundred thousand years and could not possibly withstand his Divine Punishment!

But just as he was feeling smug.

His smile suddenly froze.

The lightning he had condensed from the power of faith, after struggling against Di Tian's fist shadow for a moment, was actually punched straight through!

The purple fist shadow tore through the golden lightning like bamboo, shooting directly into the sky and piercing layer after layer of clouds, leaving behind an ever-expanding hole in the heavens.

"What?!"

Tang San was shocked, and his pupils suddenly contracted.

This might only be a divine-sense avatar rather than his true body.

But its strength had still absolutely reached the upper tier of a second-class deity. How could it be suppressed by a mere soul beast with only eight hundred thousand years of cultivation?

Could it be...

Tang San carefully sensed Di Tian's aura and discovered that the majestic presence surrounding Di Tian was completely different from when he had secretly observed him before.

The current Di Tian had clearly reached the God Level!

Tang San steadied himself and said gravely:

"You have actually reached the God Level. Why are you not peacefully waiting for the God Realm's summons?!"

Di Tian raised his head to look at the hole in the dispersing clouds and rolled his wrist.

My control over the Dragon Vein still isn't good enough. I accidentally used too much force.

He withdrew his gaze and looked at Tang San.

"Hmph, don't think I don't know that soul beasts simply cannot enter the God Realm! Otherwise, how could I have only reached the God Level now?!"

During the Dragon Vein's trial earlier, he had already learned all of this.

The God Realm had an ironclad rule: "Soul beasts may not become gods." It had sealed off every path for soul beasts to ascend to the God Realm.

Otherwise, with Di Tian's talent, he would probably have inherited some Godhood and become a god hundreds of thousands of years ago!

Seeing that his deception had failed, Tang San's expression darkened, feeling humiliated.

He said no more. With a grasp of his right hand through the air, a trident appeared in his hand out of nowhere.

The weapon's shaft was long and slender, while the trident's tip gleamed with blinding blue light. It was the Sea God's divine weapon—the Sea God Trident.

"Since that is the case, then do not blame me for showing no mercy to your hard-earned cultivation!"

Tang San flashed forward, transforming into a streak of golden light as he wielded the Sea God Trident and charged directly at Di Tian!

"Golden Thirteen Halberds, Third Form! Never Return!!"

Facing a God Level Di Tian, Tang San did not dare hold anything back.

He directly unleashed the divine technique with the strongest single-target attack among the Golden Thirteen Halberds of the Sea God Legacy.

The golden trident mark on his forehead suddenly blazed, and a blue phantom emerged behind him.

The figure held a trident and wore blue battle robes. It was none other than Poseidon, the previous generation's Sea God.

The phantom exuded a pressure that made others want to submit. It moved in perfect sync with Tang San, finally launching this halberd strike!

Faced with this incomparably fierce attack, Di Tian no longer held back either.

For the first time since his battle against the Evil Emperor many years ago, he unleashed his full strength!!

Centered on Di Tian, purple Soul Power around him surged upward like an erupting volcano, his vast aura shooting straight into the heavens!!

Its might was actually far greater than that of Tang San's Sea God divine-sense avatar before him!

Purple light dyed half the sky violet, standing in direct opposition to Tang San's golden divine power.]
