When Tang San seized this body, he had been in too much of a hurry and had not examined its soul carefully.
Who could have imagined it would be such a coincidence? He had seized the reincarnation of his teacher, Yu Xiaogang, and even let Yu Xiaogang recover his memories by a freak twist of fate.
When he discovered that the remnant soul in the Sea of Consciousness was Yu Xiaogang's reincarnation, the hand he had raised ultimately did not fall.
No matter what, he had been his teacher in his previous life. Although this teacher's martial soul theories were a pile of garbage, and he had even ruined his Blue Silver Emperor cultivation, and now had gone and produced a Blue Silver Luo San Pao for him, Tang San still could not bring himself to strike.
After all, in his mind, a teacher for a day was a father for life.
However, he had no intention of telling Yu Xiaogang that he was Tang San. He did not want Yu Xiaogang teaching him again in this life.
Still, to repay the favor, Tang San planned to find another body for Xiaogang to seize in the future.
Deep within the Sea of Consciousness, Yu Xiaogang looked at that blue-purple, fat and clumsy pig-shaped martial soul and laughed so hard his entire remnant soul trembled.
Blue Silver Luo San Pao. What a ridiculous combination. The outsider who had stolen his body must have had a spectacular expression right now.
Using all his strength, he shouted out of the Sea of Consciousness, "Do you know who my disciple is? The Sea God, Tang San! If you leave now, I can still have my disciple spare your life.
I am the famed martial soul theory master, the imperial tutor of the Heaven Dou Empire, Yu Xiaogang."
When Tang San heard that, he rolled his eyes outright and casually blocked off Yu Xiaogang's remnant soul.
Afterward, he checked the remaining power of his own divine sense and found that this wisp of divine sense could still be used one more time. (Equivalent to demigod-level power.)
Killing intent surfaced in Tang San's eyes at that, and he decided he would go kill Liu Lin tonight.
After going through this body's memories, he confirmed that this place was Star Luo City.
Through deduction, Liu Lin was still a child now, far from having grown to the point where he could threaten him.
Tonight, he would die without question.
Tang San pushed open the shabby wooden door and, under cover of night, swept toward the Star Luo Imperial Palace.
The lights of Star Luo City flashed beneath his feet. No one noticed the figure in the night sky, moving so fast it was almost impossible to see.
After killing Liu Lin, he would use Lone Bamboo and Blue Silver Luo San Pao to cultivate back into a god, then replace the version of himself currently sitting in that position in the God Realm.
Tang San passed through layer upon layer of palace corridors as if entering an uninhabited place, and found the residence where Liu Lin lived.
The hall was pitch-black. On the bed, a figure sleeping on its side could be vaguely seen.
Tang San did not hesitate. Soul Power gathered in his right hand, and he struck down at that figure with a palm.
The bed shattered into pieces the instant the palm wind touched it. But Liu Lin's body rolled sideways the moment before his palm landed, narrowly avoiding the blow.
Tang San's palm struck empty air, and his brows furrowed slightly. Then he saw that Liu Lin had already flipped up from the ground, a faint golden light flowing through those black pupils.
As early as the moment Tang San stepped into the imperial palace, the Eye of Destiny had been warning frantically. Two blood-red lights had almost dyed his entire field of vision red.
When Tang San's first strike missed, he abruptly stretched his right hand forward. The space behind Liu Lin was torn apart directly, and a pitch-black spatial rift opened silently as violent spatial turbulence surged out from within.
Tang San gave him no chance to catch his breath. His figure closed in like a ghost, and he struck out with a palm. With nowhere to dodge, Liu Lin gritted his teeth and leaped into that spatial rift.
Seeing him take the bait, Tang San gave a cold laugh and followed close behind.
Several minutes after the two figures vanished into the rift, the palace doors were shoved open hard.
Xu Jiujiu stood in the doorway, still draped in an outer robe she had not had time to tie properly.
She saw the room in complete disarray—the bed shattered into several pieces, several deep cracks split across the walls, and two entirely different auras lingering in the air.
Xu Jiujiu cried out in panic, but no one answered.
Refusing to believe it, she called again, but still no one answered. Her eyes instantly reddened.
By the time Xu Jiawei arrived, he saw his younger sister kneeling amid the wreckage, tears streaming down in great drops, both hands clutching half of a torn bedsheet on the floor with a death grip.
He crouched down and asked Xu Jiujiu what had happened, and where Liu Lin was.
Xu Jiujiu lifted her head, her azure eyes filled with tears, and haltingly told him what had happened.
Xu Jiujiu had sensed a powerful fluctuation of Soul Power from next door. Worried that something had happened to Liu Lin, she had hurried over.
But when she arrived, she found that Liu Lin had disappeared, leaving only a scene of chaos behind.
Xu Jiawei had never seen her like this before. His expression sank, and he immediately ordered the entire imperial palace sealed off.
He had Eunuch Liu invite Elder Lin and Cheng Gang, the two Titled Douluo, while also ordering the imperial guards to search every palace one by one for Liu Lin's whereabouts.
On the other side, after passing through that spatial rift, Liu Lin crashed heavily onto a field of broken stones.
Clutching his chest, he stood up and swept his gaze around, finding that he had arrived in a silent canyon.
Just as Liu Lin was regulating his breathing, a cold laugh came from behind him.
"Haha, Liu Lin, you really are pitifully stupid now. You actually dared to pass through a spatial rift created by this God King."
Tang San stood not far behind Liu Lin, those sea-blue eyes filled with mockery and killing intent.
He walked toward Liu Lin step by step, letting out a cackling laugh as he went.
"In your previous life, you ruined this God King's ten-thousand-year grand plan and made all my efforts fall short at the last moment."
"Right now, you haven't grown up yet. Killing you would be as easy as slaughtering a chicken."
"After I kill you, I'll use this body to cultivate back into godhood and replace that piece of trash in the God Realm."
Liu Lin took a step back. Hearing Tang San's words, his face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
"What the... Why the hell is everything reborn? How am I supposed to play this crap? Am I really getting forced to restart today?"
Even as he said that, his mind spun at top speed.
But no matter how he calculated it, there was no way he could defeat the remnant soul before him.
The Eye of Destiny was still issuing frantic warnings. In his vision, the blood-red light had grown so thick he could barely see anything at all.
Tang San raised his right hand, sea-blue divine power gathering in his palm.
As he pushed out with his palm, the Sea God's power turned into a blue pillar of light that shot straight toward Liu Lin's chest.
Just as Liu Lin sighed and was ready to accept his fate, the ring Zhang Lexuan had left him when she departed erupted with dazzling silver light, blocking the attack.
But because the force was too great, his entire body was sent flying, slamming heavily into the mountain wall.
Seeing this, the killing intent in Tang San's eyes grew even stronger. An illusory trident appeared in his hand, and he hurled it toward Liu Lin.
"So what if you can block it once? Today, I will kill you."
Far away in Shrek Academy, Zhang Lexuan sensed that the ring she had given Liu Lin had shattered. She hurriedly used divine power to search for him, only to discover that his whereabouts had been concealed by someone.
Her face went pale, and she sank weakly to her knees.
"How could a god-level being descend to the lower realm? I should've stayed by Liu Lin's side and never left him for even a step."
"Sorry. Looks like I'm going to die." Liu Lin looked at the Golden Trident right before his eyes and closed them.
At the instant that blue light was about to engulf him, the soul rings within him, formed from the Ice Dragon King's and Fire Dragon King's energy, suddenly lit up at the same time.
An ice-blue dragon phantom and a crimson-gold dragon phantom surged violently out of his body, crossing and coiling as they blocked in front of him.
The Ice Dragon King Left Arm Bone and Fire Dragon King Right Arm Bone also appeared at the same time. Two utterly different powers of Dragon King origin condensed before Liu Lin into a barrier woven from ice and fire.
The Golden Trident slammed into the barrier, unleashing a deafening explosion. The entire valley trembled violently under the collision.
Countless fine cracks split across the ice-fire barrier, but in the end, it did not shatter.
After withstanding the blow, the ice-blue patterns and crimson-gold patterns on the barrier lit up at the same time.
The ice-fire barrier condensed into an attack that blended Ultimate Ice and Ultimate Fire, then blasted toward Tang San.
Tang San's pupils shrank slightly, and he instinctively used divine power to condense a protective barrier around himself.
With a thunderous boom, a huge crater appeared across the canyon.
