Just as Lin Yan's thoughts were churning, the light of the Hundred Treasure Pearl within his Sea of Spirit suddenly flared, then rapidly receded.
The card that had been gestating was finally fully formed!
The card was roughly the size of a palm, its texture neither metal nor jade, feeling ice-cold to the touch.
On both the front and back of the card, a deep, dark vortex was depicted, appearing as if it could swallow all light; the vortex rotated slowly, emitting a heart-stopping aura of space-time turbulence.
Above the vortex on the front of the card, four archaic and eerie characters were branded—
"Space-Time Turbulence"!
Lin Yan's heart stirred, and he beckoned with his consciousness. The "Space-Time Turbulence" card flew automatically from beside the Hundred Treasure Pearl and landed in the hand of his spiritual body.
The moment the card was in his grasp, a clear stream of information flowed directly from the Hundred Treasure Pearl into his consciousness:
[Space-Time Turbulence Card]: A one-time special rule-type treasure. Upon activation, it can prematurely trigger and slightly amplify the "Space-Time Turbulence" that would naturally occur in approximately one hundred years, forcing it to descend early and pushing the God Realm away from the Douluo Continent plane for a duration of ten years.
"Trigger the Space-Time Turbulence early? Keep the God Realm away for ten years?!"
After digesting the information, Lin Yan was stunned for a moment, followed by a surge of wild joy!
"This is perfect! This is simply... heaven helping me!" He was almost excited enough to shout out loud.
What did this mean?
It meant that the powerful existence suspected to be from the God Realm, who might pose a threat to him, would find it difficult to directly intervene in the lower realm as they did in his memory fragments for at least the next ten years—let alone drag him off to some Valley of Universe Inquiry to be tortured to death!
His safety was now guaranteed to a great extent!
And ten years was enough time for him to use the Hundred Treasure Pearl and the stolen destiny to grow to a considerable level!
"No wonder the Hundred Treasure Pearl said it could keep me safe... so that was it!"
Lin Yan no longer hesitated, a glimmer of determination and excitement flashing in his eyes.
"Activate! Activate the 'Space-Time Turbulence Card' immediately!"
He issued the command to the Hundred Treasure Pearl in his heart.
Within the Sea of Spirit, the card depicting the dark vortex suddenly erupted with intense gray light!
The card itself dissipated into countless points of light, and a profound, mysterious fluctuation involving the essence of time and space ignored the boundaries of matter and spirit, instantly piercing through Lin Yan's body.
It pierced through Dormitory 108, pierced through the barrier of the Douluo Continent plane, and quietly spread toward the higher dimension connected to the Douluo plane in the dark—the God Realm...
And this was the direct reason why the "sense of being watched" that Huo Yuhao had felt for many days suddenly vanished!
God Realm, Sea God Hall.
The grand hall was filled with swirling divine light.
Tang San, dressed in his magnificent azure Sea God Divine Armor, sat upright upon his divine throne.
He had just withdrawn a wisp of divine sense from the lower realm, a faint, indifferent smile of total control gracing his peerlessly handsome face.
"Hmm, although there was a slight deviation and he didn't join the Tang Sect, the Son of Destiny has finally entered Shrek Academy as guided."
Tang San mused to himself, As long as he enters Shrek and lives under the same sky as Xiao Qi, spending his days with her, the threads of fate will naturally reconnect. The core part of the plan remains on track.
He was quite confident in this; ten thousand years of layout and control had long since accustomed him to viewing all things as chess pieces.
This small "rebellion" of Huo Yuhao's was, in his eyes, nothing more than youthful temperament, harmless and perhaps even capable of stirring up Xiao Qi's curiosity and desire for conquest.
As for that Shrek Token that "happened" to appear?
It was merely a casual move he had made to ensure the piece would not completely derail.
However, at this moment, Tang San's brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.
Just as he had withdrawn his divine sense, he vaguely felt that the portion of destiny connected to Huo Yuhao and Xiao Qi (Tang Wutong) seemed to have subtly leaked and diminished by a small fraction?
Although the change was extremely minute, almost negligible, to someone who placed such great importance on destiny and faith, this anomaly was like an ink blot on a white sheet of paper, and he had still captured it.
"Strange... is there some unknown variable in the lower realm stealing destiny? Or is it just a simple fluctuation?"
A trace of doubt flashed in Tang San's heart, but he was not overly nervous.
The flow of destiny was inherently complex, and slight fluctuations were normal; he trusted his own layout and control more.
However, before he could further deduce this anomaly—
"Hummm—!!!"
A low hum, yet one that seemed capable of shaking the very foundation of the God Realm, came without warning from the deep void on the periphery of the God Realm!
This hum was not a sound, but a tremor of laws acting directly upon the spiritual level of all deities!
Tang San's expression changed drastically! He sprang from his divine throne in an instant, the azure light of his Sea God Divine Armor swirling and instantly shifting into a murderous, sharp, and blood-red hue filled with boundless baleful aura—the Asura Divine Armor!
His divine position also shifted in this moment from the Sea God to the Asura God, who was more adept at battle and destruction!
"Something has happened!" Warning bells rang wildly in Tang San's heart; it was the top-tier intuition of a God King regarding crisis.
His figure flashed, transforming into a blood-red stream of light that shot into the sky, heading straight for the space beyond the light membrane of the God Realm!
At almost the same moment, the other four God Kings of the God Realm Committee—the God of Destruction, the Goddess of Life, the God of Evil, and the God of Goodness—also sensed that terrifying tremor of laws, flying out from their respective temples one after another and transforming into four divine lights of different colors, following closely behind Tang San!
The five God Kings, representing the highest combat power and authority of the God Realm, gathered together in the void outside the light barrier of the God Realm.
Yet when they saw the scene before them, even these God Kings who had weathered great storms could not help but reveal expressions of shock and gravity.
Deep in the distant void, a gray "singularity" that was constantly twisting and collapsing, as if it could swallow space and time itself, was hurtling toward the God Realm at a speed far exceeding their cognition and expectations!
Wherever it passed, the structure of space twisted and shattered like crumpled paper, and the flow of time fell into an eerie state of chaos!
"Space-Time Turbulence!" Tang San's pupils constricted as he whispered in disbelief, "But... why has it arrived so quickly?!"
According to his previous observations and calculations, the next large-scale Space-Time Turbulence should not have gradually formed and approached for another hundred years.
The one before them was clearly abnormal, both in speed and intensity!
The God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life exchanged a glance, both seeing the resolve in the other's eyes.
As ancient God Kings, they knew all too well the terror of the Space-Time Turbulence.
"Sea God, Xiao Lv and I will go ahead to block it for a moment and buy you time!"
The God of Destruction's voice was low and urgent. Without waiting for Tang San's response, he took the Goddess of Life's hand, their powerful Destruction and Life divine powers intertwining to form a massive barrier of divine energy as they charged toward the rapidly approaching gray singularity!
They attempted to use the origin divine power of two God Kings to slightly delay its momentum.
Tang San knew this was no time for hesitation, so he immediately looked toward the God of Evil and the God of Goodness beside him.
The gazes of the three God Kings met, and they reached a consensus in an instant.
Black, white, and red—the supreme divine powers representing Evil, Goodness, and Asura surged out from the bodies of the three God Kings, rapidly converging and solidifying in the void!
Light intertwined, and the laws roared!
A massive three-colored sword, appearing as if it could judge the heavens and earth and sever causality, manifested in the void!
The blade of the giant sword flowed with the aura of destruction and order, radiating a pressure that made even deities tremble!
This was the ultimate combined divine skill left behind for their successors by the previous generation of the God of Evil and the God of Goodness before they departed the God Realm—the Sword of Three Realms Judgment!
It was originally a trump card prepared to deal with the Golden Dragon King should he break free, possessing enough power to severely wound or even slay half of the supreme Dragon God's incarnation.
Now, facing this sudden and abnormally powerful Space-Time Turbulence, they had no choice but to risk using this trump card!
