Return to the Past!

"Di Tian! You have chosen the path to death!"

A streak of golden light tore through the sky, instantly filling heaven and earth with a golden radiance.

Di Tian's massive purple dragon claw, which blotted out the sky, instantly shattered before that golden light.

When the golden glow faded, a tall figure stood suspended in the air above Sea God Island.

Blue hair fluttered in the wind, and he wore magnificent robes of alternating blue and gold. Strange halos circled behind him, emanating a sacred and imposing aura.

It was Tang San!

And this time, it was no longer a Divine Sense avatar, but his true body descending into the lower realm.

With the strength of a God King Level being, every gesture he made carried a world-shaking pressure.

Tang San looked grimly at Di Tian and said coldly,

"I never expected you to ignore my warning and attack Shrek."

The corners of Di Tian's mouth lifted slightly, and a gleeful smile flashed through his eyes.

"I never expected you to truly disregard the God Realm's rules and descend to the lower realm for Shrek's sake."

He paused, then probed,

"I imagine our noble Sea God must have paid a considerable price, yes?"

"Could Shrek possibly hold some treasure that even a lofty God King covets?"

Tang San's expression changed slightly at Di Tian's words, but he immediately returned to normal.

His ten-thousand-year grand plan could not be exposed. He could not be swayed by such provocation.

"Hmph!"

Tang San shouted, pointing the Sea God Trident in his hand directly at Di Tian.

This time, he had descended alone and had not brought Xiao Wu, the Asura God Scabbard. Thus, apart from the power of the Sea God Godhood, he could only call upon a portion of the God King Level power from the Asura God Godhood.

Still, even merely a portion of Asura God Power, added to the Sea God Godhood, could unleash a brief God King Level attack.

In his eyes, that would be more than enough to deal with a soul beast possessing only First-Level God strength like Di Tian!

"Di Tian! Since you seek death, I will show you that even among God Level beings, there are gaps!"

Before his words had faded, dark clouds churned across the sky, forming a massive vortex.

A gigantic Sea God Trident slowly emerged from the vortex, its entire body blazing with golden light.

Empowered by Asura God Divine Power, it bore the pressure of a God King Level being, causing heaven and earth to change color.

The waters of Sea God Lake surged into waves several meters high, crashing against the shore with deafening force.

This should have reached God King Level, shouldn't it?

As Di Tian watched the enormous Sea God Trident, he mused inwardly. Yet there was not the slightest fear in his golden dragon eyes.

Facing the pressure of a God King Level being, Di Tian, who possessed only First-Level God strength, felt a ripping agony tear through his body, as though every inch of his skin were being pulled apart by invisible force.

Yet his eyes held a smile that he could barely suppress.

Then, he put on a solemn expression, pointed at Tang San and the Sea God Trident in the sky, and declared loudly,

"Since that is the case, let me see what a God King like you is capable of!"

As he spoke, the purple Soul Power around his body erupted violently. It surged forth like a volcanic eruption, covering the entirety of Sea God Lake!

Under the terrifying influence of that Soul Power, the waters of Sea God Lake evaporated at a visible rate. White vapor shot into the sky, shrouding the entire heavens in a hazy mist.

In some shallower areas, the dried-up lakebed was exposed in mere seconds.

An enormous amount of purple Soul Power gathered in midair, gradually condensing into a gigantic dragon head.

The dragon head was lifelike. It threw back its head and let out an earth-shaking dragon roar.

"Roar!"

The dragon head roared, opened its enormous jaws, and viciously bit down at Tang San!

"Good! Today, I will wash away the humiliation of the past!"

Tang San's eyes widened, his face full of fury as golden Divine Power surged wildly around him.

"Hah!"

Tang San swept out his hand, and the gigantic Sea God Trident in the sky moved at once, plunging straight down toward the dragon head!

"Boom!!!"

The thunderous collision resounded through the clouds, shaking even the earth.

Golden Divine Power and purple Soul Power fiercely wrestled in the air, eroding and devouring each other as they erupted with blinding light.

The commotion was so immense that even the soul masters and soul beasts fighting at the gates of Shrek City stopped.

Everyone stared blankly toward Sea God Pavilion in the Inner Court.

In the sky, a massive dragon head and a golden trident continued to contend against one another. Their Soul Power frantically eroded the other side, neither willing to yield an inch.

"What is happening?!"

Before Yan Shaozhe could finish speaking, a visible shockwave swept out from the center of the battle!

The shockwave carried golden and purple light and moved with astonishing speed. Everything in its path was leveled to the ground.

Yan Shaozhe's face changed drastically. He hurriedly threw himself onto the ground, covering his head with both hands as he tried his best to avoid the terrifying aftermath.

Even a Super Douluo like him could only lie prostrate on the ground before the aftershocks of this God Level battle, utterly powerless to resist.

At the center of Di Tian and Tang San's clash, half of Shrek Academy had already been completely destroyed and reduced to ruins.

The once-glorious number one academy of the Douluo Continent was now left with nothing but devastation.

In one corner, Mu En had fled there with the unconscious Xuan Zi when the two sides had first confronted one another.

Now, he stood amid the ruins, his aged body trembling slightly as he looked at everything before him.

"What exactly did you protect?!"

Mu En cried out in anguish.

When his ancestor Tang San had appeared, he had thought Shrek had been saved.

Yet it had still failed. Worse still, half the destruction had been Tang San's doing!

At the center of the clash, Di Tian's dragon head was the first to collapse due to the disparity in strength.

The purple Soul Power dragon head steadily retreated before the golden trident, finally exploding apart into countless purple motes of light.

Tang San's trident had already reached Di Tian and thrust down fiercely!

Di Tian hurriedly raised his hands before him, gripping the trident's tip tightly with both hands.

Golden Divine Power and purple Soul Power collided violently in his palms, producing the screech of metal grinding against metal.

He successfully held the gigantic Sea God Trident at a standstill!

Seeing that he had gained the upper hand, Tang San immediately sneered,

"Now you understand the insurmountable gulf between a God King and a First-Level God, don't you?"

He looked down at Di Tian from above, his eyes filled with smugness.

"If you beg for mercy now, I may overlook the past and let you become my mount!"

Tang San spoke smugly.

If he could tame a God Level black dragon as his mount, he would be far more impressive than the former Sea God, Poseidon!

But at that moment, Di Tian said something Tang San had not expected.

"Did you really think that I, the clan leader of the Black Dragon Clan, was an idiot who did not know the difference between a God King and a First-Level God?"

At this moment, none of Di Tian's earlier struggle remained. Instead, his face was filled with joy that he could no longer suppress.

The corners of his mouth rose high, and his eyes shone with excitement.

Tang San's expression changed drastically.

He looked closely.

What Di Tian was using to block his Sea God Trident was precisely the Divine Sense fragment Di Tian had taken from him last time!

The golden Divine Sense fragment floated in Di Tian's palm, pressed tightly against the tip of the Sea God Trident.

Before Tang San could understand what Di Tian intended to do, the latter had already given him the answer.

"Over the past three months, I have comprehended three divine skills through the Dragon Vein. One of them..."

A trace of madness flashed through Di Tian's eyes.

"Is Return to the Past!"
