Drawing the Fire from Beneath the Cauldron, Battle Begins

In that seemingly unchanging, yet ever-changing and dazzling Spatial Tunnel, the boundary between illusion and reality is constantly blurred.

This is a very difficult process, even for Deity, since not all Deity are born gods.

They possess the same concept of time as those short-lived creatures, and are gods made of humankind.

The seven people, led by Tang San, were indeed finding it difficult to adapt to the constantly changing Spatial Tunnel, and the journey had left them quite exhausted.

In addition, the time difference caused by the spatial gap between the Divine Realm and Douluo Star greatly exacerbated the torment of the Spatial Tunnel.

Fortunately, this journey, which even the gods found somewhat torturous, was finally coming to an end. Before them lay a gradually stabilizing space, and the Milky Way and planets were already faintly visible.

Tang San smiled slightly and then said, "Friends, we've arrived at Douluo Star. We're finally back."

"Rong Rong, you take the others to Heaven and Earth Asking Love Valley first and extract the Divine Power stored there to refine it."

"Xiao Wu and I will go and test the current strength of Douluo Star."

"I want to see who the culprit is who severed the connection between Douluo Star and the Divine Realm!"

"If any other unexpected events occur, I will contact Ning Mo again through Divine Sense."

"Okay, don't worry, Third Brother." Ning Rongrong nodded and transformed into a stream of light, leading the other four people to fly in one direction of Douluo Star.

Tang San and Xiao Wu split up with them and flew towards the Shrek Academy.

The closer Tang San got to Douluo Star, the more he sensed that something was amiss.

One of them was that the closer he got to Douluo Star, the more terrifying the pressure seemed to be on him.

Although it is a material interface, Douluo Star has a different energy level.

Normally, the destructive power that a god-level or higher powerhouse can unleash far exceeds the power they display in the Divine Realm.

For some reason, Tang San felt that if he used his full strength, the destructive effect he could cause would not be much different from the effect he caused in the Divine Realm.

What Tang San didn't know was that this was because if he went down to the lower realm through the central hub of the God Realm, he could receive the blessing of the Douluo Star Plane's rules.

This so-called unsuppressed power is actually the result of being amplified.

However, the will of the Douluo Star plane has now changed hands, and there is no central authority of the God Realm to coordinate it.

The combination of these two factors made Tang San feel somewhat uncomfortable even before he entered Douluo Star.

As they drew closer, Tang San felt the rules that were suppressing his power becoming increasingly stronger.

"As expected, Douluo Star has been tampered with." A fierce glint flashed in Tang San's eyes.

He regarded Douluo Star as his own backyard, and even the positions of Plane Master and Life Core were given to his own people.

Now that Douluo Star has changed hands, his parents' fate is naturally beyond words, and he feels heartbroken every time he thinks of them.

Furthermore, the existence of this thief also threatened his position in the Divine Realm, making his crime even more unforgivable.

"This person has already chosen his own death!" At this moment, Tang San's Divine Power overflowed.

At the same time, Xiao Wu also grasped his hand, and the Divine Power the Asura God and the Sea God Divine Power alternated on Tang San's body, resisting the pressure of the external Plane Rules.

When Tang San used his Divine Power, he had nowhere to store it because he was disconnected from the Divine Realm, so he drifted around Douluo Star.

The Power of Faith in the Sea God and the Asura God was immediately used to contact the holders of the God Positions.

I felt my power being suppressed, but constantly being restored with the support of the Collective Thought Power.

Tang San laughed and said, "It's nothing special. Xiao Wu, let's go back to the Shrek Academy to revisit our old haunts before we go see that enemy from the Divine Realm!"

Xiao Wu nodded, and the two of them streaked through the sky amidst a crimson streak of light, plunging directly into the outskirts of Shrek City.

"What happened? Why is Shrek City so desolate?!" Tang San's expression was rather grim.

Although Douluo Star was cut off from the Divine Realm, the last time he observed Douluo Star more than ten years ago.

Logically speaking, Shrek City, which was so prosperous back then, should not have fallen into such a state of ruin in just over a decade.

Moreover, the abundance of World Spiritual Energy surprised Tang San, although it could not compare to the energy concentration of the Immortal Energy in the Divine Realm.

However, the concentration of World Spiritual Energy Douluo Star was definitely higher than when I ascended to heaven ten thousand years ago.

Logically speaking, after Ah Yin, as the Life Core, has been draining the spiritual energy of Douluo Star for ten thousand years, the World Spiritual Energy should only weaken further.

Ultimately, we should wait for him, the Asura God, to appear as the savior and save the people from suffering.

With a slightly gloomy expression, Tang San and Xiao Wu flew together towards Shrek City and soon arrived at the Shrek Academy.

Tang San didn't sense it, probably because of the powerful Asura God's Divine Power.

He did not sense any unusual signs in the Sea God's Power within his body, even though these signs were somewhat inconspicuous.

However, for Deity, all Divine Power is integrated into one.

While ensuring their strength, it also means that their power will have far-reaching consequences.

Although Shrek Academy still retains its original campus, it is far from being as glorious as it once was.

The dilapidated gate looked like it hadn't been repaired for years, the road was covered in dust and dirt, and the plants were unkempt.

The desolate Seagod Lake is empty, and the ancient Golden Ancient Tree, the Life Core, is inaccessible to anyone.

And the Shrek Remnants, though still remaining in the Outer Court, number less than a hundred.

Enveloped by Divine Sense, Tang San felt incredibly heartbroken about all of this.

"This is outrageous! This is truly outrageous!" You must know that Shrek Academy can be said to be the bridgehead of his Sea God Faith.

Unlike the Tang Sect, who, after becoming Deity, no longer used Hidden Weapon themselves and thus regarded them as nothing.

Shrek Academy's publicity and training have solidified the absolute Sea God Position in the hearts of all Soul Master on the Douluo Continent.

It should be understood that the Thought Power that humans can provide to Deity is far more refined than that that simple Soul Beast can provide.

Moreover, humans reproduce extremely quickly, generation after generation.

Just like leeks, establishing faith among them is much more cost-effective than other races with extremely long reproduction cycles.

In Tang San's view, religion, as a source of Deity worship, is too restrictive.

While this method can select more fanatical followers, it also requires a large Believer Base to provide the Thought Power.

Shrek Academy, as an academy, is undoubtedly the best benchmark and form of publicity.

"No wonder I felt that the Sea God Divine Power that belonged to me seemed to have decreased. It turns out that Shrek Academy has a big problem."

Tang San's expression was icy. At this moment, he gradually pushed the Divine Power of the Asura God to its limit, and Xiao Wu beside him understood perfectly.

The two completely merged, and the power of the Asura God and the Asura God Sword manifested on Tang San's body.

At the same time, the Sea God Divine Power was also forced back into the deepest part of Tang San's body, but this provided a better environment for the growth of the Thought Power Poison.

"I, Tang San, am back."

"Shrek, is there anyone who still remembers my name?!"

"Send people to me immediately! I will lead you to reclaim the glory that belongs to Shrek!"

Tang San shone brightly, but it wasn't the majestic image of Sea God.

After all, it's too much of a stretch for the Sea God, who is still only First-Rank Deity, to fight against the pressure from Douluo Star.

What he is displaying now is the full power of the Asura God as a God King-level expert.

Meanwhile, Tang San's voice echoed throughout every corner of the Shrek Academy.

Those who were either living in a daze or still holding onto hope, but who had never forgotten Shrek, gathered in the Shrek Academy Square.

Looking at that majestic Deity, that face I had worshipped countless times in front of the school gate, I couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Your His Holiness the Sea God above."

"Your His Holiness the Sea God above."

"Your His Holiness the Sea God above."

Meanwhile, in Heaven and Earth Asking Love Valley, Ning Rongrong led four others to fly down from the sky.

"This is so uncomfortable. Is this the suppressive force from the Plane Rules?" Dai Mubai's lips twitched. He felt as if his power had been suppressed to the level of an ordinary Third-Rank Deity.

The others were similar, although they claimed that when they cooperated, they could unleash combat power no less than that of First-Rank Deity.

But that was, after all, cooperation, and it was merely a matter of combat strength. If we were to discuss its true nature...

They were all merely Second-Rank Deity, that is, the essence of being Second-Rank Deity.

This made them feel utterly helpless in the face of the pressure from the Plane Rule Power.

After all, this kind of suppression from all aspects of the plane cannot be resisted by a temporary burst of force.

"If I expend more Divine Power, I can still maintain my combat strength, but if this continues, the Divine Power I have stored up won't last long."

Ma Hongjun spoke up. He had been silent the whole way, and everyone was happy to see him speak.

Ning Rongrong laughed and said, "It's alright. There's plenty of Divine Power stored in Heaven and Earth Asking Love Valley, and it originally belonged to a First-Rank Deity."

"The power contained within is more than enough to restore all of us to our full potential."

Ma Hongjun nodded with a gloomy expression, seemingly lost in thought.

Then Ning Rongrong activated her divine Divine Power, resonating it with the Divine Sense she had previously left in the Heaven and Earth Asking Love Valley.

This broke the restriction she had originally set up outside the Heaven and Earth Asking Love Valley to prevent others from entering at will and consuming the Divine Power within.

However, when the Heaven and Earth Asking Love Valley was revealed to the public, it was not the original one that served as one of the Three Treasure Bowls of the Douluo Continent.

Bathed in abundant Divine Power, the scenery that should have been like a fairyland was replaced by an ordinary valley.

Seeing this, Ning Rongrong's expression froze, and she said in disbelief, "What, what exactly happened?"

Seemingly confused, Ning Rongrong quickly reopened and then closed the restriction, only to find that the scene inside remained unchanged.

Moreover, through examining the layout of the environment, Ning Rongrong was able to confirm that this place was indeed Heaven and Earth Asking Love Valley.

For some unknown reason, the Divine Power that should have been accumulated here unclaimed and waiting to be used by others has mysteriously disappeared.

What Tang San and Ning Rongrong didn't know was that Gu Yuena had previously worked to restore her God King-level strength and create Demiplane belonging to Soul Beast.

She used the Dragon God Core to borrow the authority of the Douluo Star Plane Master, thereby integrating Douluo Star and all the demiplanes on Douluo Star that were dependent on it.

This naturally includes the area where Heaven and Earth Asking Love Valley is located. Although Ning Rongrong set up a restriction here with her Divine Sense, it only prevents external threats but not internal ones.

The annexation of these Demiplane by Douluo Star itself was not an invasion from the outside.

It's simply a matter of reclaiming one's overflowing power, so it naturally won't trigger the restrictions set up by Ning Rongrong.

However, Ning Rongrong and the others felt helpless at this moment, and Ning Rongrong said in a somewhat bewildered tone.

"What should we do? Let's go find Third Brother first. Without Heaven and Earth Asking Love Valley, every minute and second we stay on Douluo Star will consume a lot of Divine Power."

If Tang San hadn't told them beforehand that there was still a reserve of Divine Power on Douluo Star, they wouldn't have been so reckless as to enter Douluo Star directly.

After all, the closer one gets to Douluo Star, the stronger the suppressive power of the Douluo Star plane will be.

Moreover, due to the restoration of the Douluo Star's Origin Power, and the subsequent infusion of the Abyss Plane's Origin Power and most of the Demiplane's Origin Power into it by Gu Yuena.

Although the current Douluo Star's rule suppression power is not as strong as that of the Divine Realm, even ordinary First-Rank Deity would find it quite difficult to descend here.

"Okay, I'll contact Third Brother with my Divine Sense first, and then we'll evacuate Douluo Star first," Ning Rongrong said, biting her lip.

Dai Mubai said, "Xiao Ao, let's recover for everyone. Let's wait for Xiao San's news before entering from outside the stars again."

"If we were to travel within Douluo Star, I feel the energy expenditure would be far too great."

"That's all we can do." Oscar sighed. "I wonder who did this. How did Douluo Star become so sinister?"

Oscar, who was the least skilled at fighting among them, keenly sensed something was amiss, but couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Just as they were about to leave the atmosphere of Douluo Star, having restrained their divine Divine Power as much as possible.

A beam of light pierced through the air, shattering the space in its path and penetrating the spatial boundaries as it hurtled towards them.

At this moment, alarm bells rang in everyone's hearts. Dai Mubai was the first to react. He no longer conserved his Divine Power and quickly joined forces with Zhu Zhuqing to fight the enemy.

Although they hadn't fought a proper battle in over a decade, everyone reacted quickly in this critical moment.

Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing worked together to help Oscar and Ning Rongrong block the sneak attack.

Oscar and Ning Rongrong joined forces to apply various status buffs to the group.

At this moment, intense flames erupted from Ma Hongjun's body, and a giant fiery phoenix took shape behind him.

However, this attack was just a probe, and even more dense attacks followed one after another towards the group.

Unlike Divine Sense, the detection devices, which combine Soul Tool and magic, have long been deployed throughout Douluo Star by the Douluo Council.

In order to resist the pressure from the plane itself, coupled with the haste of the arrival from the sky.

Dai Mubai himself was unaware that his whereabouts had already been exposed to others.
