Sea God's Light.
A terrifying aura descended, its oppressive force several times stronger than any Limit Douluo known on the Douluo Continent—so much so that they were not even on the same level.
Clearly, this was a god-level powerhouse.
Yu Chen abruptly looked up.
A blue-gold figure slowly descended from the sky. The newcomer wore blue-gold battle armor, the Sea God's Divine Armor covering his entire body. Eight wings behind his back trembled slightly, stirring the world's spiritual energy around him. In his right hand, he held a Golden Trident that radiated suffocating divine might.
Tang San.
Yu Chen's pupils constricted as he recognized the newcomer at once.
"Oh? You know me too?" Tang San raised an eyebrow slightly, amusement coloring his tone.
"Heh, of course I know you." Yu Chen curled his lips. "Your glorious deeds are everywhere on the Douluo Continent now."
Tang San smiled faintly, seeming quite pleased with that answer. "True enough. After all, I left behind far too many legends on the Douluo Continent."
Yet in the next instant, two furious dragon roars suddenly erupted.
The remnant souls of the Icefire Dragon Kings surged into the air, their rage reaching the heavens.
"It's you! A god from the God Realm! The new Asura God!"
The Icefire Dragon Kings stared fixedly at Tang San, their dragon eyes filled with fury and vigilance. Even as mere remnant souls, they could recognize the pressure belonging to a God King.
Tang San's gaze swept indifferently over the two dragon souls, and a hint of disdain flashed through his eyes.
"Remnants of the dragon clan? I never expected such things to be hidden here."
The so-called remnants of the dragon clan naturally referred to the Icefire Dragon Kings. Even though they were now only remnant souls, Tang San still regarded them as beings that had to be eliminated.
The Ice Dragon King suppressed her fury and spoke in a deep voice. "You are the new Asura God? Why have you come to the lower realm instead of staying in the God Realm? You are an enforcer of the God Realm. Don't you know that gods of the God Realm are forbidden from interfering with the lower realm? You are already breaking the rules!"
"Breaking the rules?"
Tang San chuckled, his tone brimming with contempt.
"Sooner or later, the God Realm will be mine to command."
He said it lightly, yet his words carried unquestionable arrogance, as though the entire God Realm were nothing more than pieces in his palm.
He slowly stepped forward, his gaze passing over the Icefire Dragon Kings before landing directly on Yu Chen. A meaningful curve formed on his lips.
"I came down because I saw a genius."
Tang San put on what he considered a pure and flawless smile, his tone gentle to the point of hypocrisy.
"Yu Chen, transformed from an auspicious beast, eleven years old, a Soul Emperor of over rank sixty. Not bad. Very good."
He looked Yu Chen up and down, his gaze like that of someone inspecting a treasure about to enter his possession.
"To possess such cultivation and fortune at such a young age, you are truly a genius found once in ten thousand. I, Tang San, have always cherished talent. If you are willing..."
He paused, and his smile deepened.
"My Tang Family can give you a future."
Yu Chen sneered.
The sneer was not loud, yet it fell clearly into Tang San's ears, like a thorn piercing the pride he held so dear.
"Tang San, do you think I enjoy being a dog for your Tang Family?"
The moment those words left his mouth, heaven and earth seemed to fall silent.
The smile on Tang San's face froze.
He had never imagined that an eleven-year-old child, an ant from the lower realm, would dare reject him to his face—and even describe his recruitment as "being a dog."
"What did you say?"
Tang San's voice suddenly turned cold. Blue-gold divine pressure crushed outward without distinction, instantly forcing the surrounding immortal herbs to the ground, where they trembled violently. The remnant souls of the Icefire Dragon Kings also bore immense pressure. Their dragon forms shook slightly, yet they still stood firmly before Yu Chen.
"So, you refuse?"
All false gentleness had vanished from Tang San's tone, leaving only coldness and danger, like the lightless depths beneath the sea.
Yet Yu Chen smiled.
He tilted his head slightly, looking at Tang San's face filled with condescension. His tone was as calm as though he were stating the most ordinary thing in the world.
"Why should I agree?"
Five light words, yet they were harsher than any provocation.
Tang San's eyes turned completely cold.
Throughout his long life, no one had ever dared speak to him like this. There had been those who were dissatisfied, those who feared him, and countless flatterers. But someone like Yu Chen—a mere little Soul Emperor of the lower realm who dared say, "Why should I agree?" to a God King—was someone he had encountered for the first time.
"You refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit."
Tang San slowly raised his right hand. The Golden Trident lay before him as blue-gold light frantically gathered upon it. The Sea God's power surged like an inverted ocean, instantly enveloping the entire world.
"Then don't blame me."
The instant his words fell, heaven and earth changed color.
An irresistible force suddenly erupted. Blue-gold divine light transformed into a massive domain, swallowing Yu Chen, the remnant souls of the Icefire Dragon Kings, and every immortal herb within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
The scenery within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well rapidly twisted, shattered, and reformed before their eyes.
When everything settled, Yu Chen discovered that he was no longer in the original place.
All around him stretched an endless azure sea, where sea and sky met as one and no end could be seen. A faint golden radiance floated upon the waves, while the air carried the salty dampness of a sea breeze. Above them, the sky was entirely covered by a blue-gold curtain of light, like an overturned bowl sealing this space completely.
Sea God's Realm.
Tang San's divine domain.
Within this space, Tang San was the absolute ruler. The laws of the God Realm were written by him here, and the rules of heaven and earth were defined by him here. The lives and deaths of those trapped inside were all decided by a single thought of his.
Tang San floated above the sea. Sea God's Eight Wings slowly spread behind him as he looked down upon Yu Chen from on high, like one looking down at an ant trapped in a cage.
"This is my Sea God's Realm."
His voice echoed throughout the entire space, carrying the authority and pressure unique to a God King.
"If you change your mind, you still have a chance."
Tang San tilted his head slightly, his tone carrying an additional trace of lofty "leniency," as though his earlier threats had merely been a momentary necessity.
"Otherwise, do you think you can still leave after entering?"
The remnant souls of the Icefire Dragon Kings roared in fury, their dragon forms swelling as they tried to tear open this space.
Yet the moment their attack touched the blue-gold curtain of light, an invisible force rebounded it. Their remnant souls nearly scattered from the impact.
"Don't waste your effort." Tang San did not even spare them a glance. "Within my Sea God's Realm, the two of you are remnant souls incapable of even stirring a wave."
The immortal herbs were even paler. Their cultivation had never excelled in combat, and trapped in this divine domain, even protecting themselves had become a luxury.
Everyone's gazes fell involuntarily upon Yu Chen.
Yet Yu Chen himself was remarkably calm.
He stood there, looking at the blue-gold canopy overhead, the boundless sea beneath his feet, then Tang San's lofty face.
Then he smiled.
There was no fear in that smile, no anger, not even tension.
There was only an indescribable... amusement.
As though he were looking at someone who had no idea what mistake he had made.
