First-level Divine Might, Purging the Plane's Blight!

Lei Chen's consciousness was like a cold star, clearly reflecting the two forces of obvious malice from Tang Hao and Ah Yin. Like greedy venomous snakes, they lunged separately at the Plane Origin and the Life Core.

They've finally come... I've been waiting for you for a long time. Lei Chen sneered inwardly, not surprised in the slightest.

This had all been a carefully orchestrated trap to lure them in. Tang San's interference had been within his expectations; it could even be said that it was an indispensable part of pushing the plan forward.

Just as Tang Hao's Divine Sense was about to touch the Plane Origin and Ah Yin's life force was about to coil around the Life Core—

The Douluo Plane Origin, which under Lei Chen's control had seemed to be fiercely clashing with the laws of the Undead Demiplane and slowly merging with them, suddenly underwent an earth-shattering change!

The sluggish feeling of "resistance" and "adjustment" vanished in an instant, replaced by perfect compatibility, as seamless as water blending with milk!

The barren, deathly laws of the Undead Demiplane showed not the slightest resistance. Instead, like wandering children returning home, they actively and smoothly merged into the Douluo Plane's system of laws.

The phantom of a black sun flashed across the Plane Barrier. The dense aura of death was swiftly absorbed and transformed by the vibrant Douluo Plane, becoming nourishment for the growth of the world's origin.

The entire process, from "difficult devouring" to "perfect fusion," was completed almost in a single thought!

"What?! That's impossible!!" The sliver of Tang San's divine thought attached to Tang Hao emitted an incredulous fluctuation.

With Tang San's God King-level knowledge, he naturally understood that when one plane devoured another demiplane, even if it had the advantage in scale, it would inevitably face fierce instinctive resistance from the other world. The clash and fusion of laws required a long time to settle. There was absolutely no way it could be completed in an instant like this!

"How is this possible?! With the Douluo Plane's scale, even if it successfully forcibly devoured a demiplane, it could never have happened this quickly! Why isn't that demiplane resisting?!" Tang San's divine thought fluctuated violently, filled with confusion and a faint sense of foreboding.

At that moment, a calm yet teasing voice rang out like a heavenly decree in the Sea of Spirit of Tang Hao and Ah Yin, and was also clearly transmitted to Tang San's divine thought:

"There's nothing impossible about it. And who told you I was 'forcibly devouring' that demiplane?"

"I reached a contract with that demiplane's ruler long ago. So not only did that demiplane not resist, it was quite cooperative. Naturally, I could merge with it quickly."

The instant his words fell, space twisted before the drastically changed expressions of Tang Hao and Ah Yin, and a humanoid figure of light radiating seven-colored streams suddenly condensed!

This figure's aura was initially comparable to Tang Hao's, at the Peak Second-level God realm. But immediately afterward, as the Undead Demiplane's power completely merged into the Douluo Plane, the Douluo Plane Origin let out a joyful hum, and its overall rank abruptly rose by an entire level!

And as the Plane Lord, Lei Chen's aura surged along with it. As though he had shattered some invisible shackle, he violently broke through the barrier from the limit of Peak Second-level God and stepped into the vast, boundless realm of a First-level God!

His immense pressure swept out like a tangible tsunami, instantly enveloping the space for thousands of miles and pinning Tang Hao and Ah Yin firmly in place. Even moving a finger became incomparably difficult.

Between a Second-level God and a First-level God lay a difference in quality!

The seven-colored figure gradually solidified. Though its features remained blurred, its eyes, seemingly formed from laws themselves, carried amusement and icy killing intent as they swept across the wary Tang Hao and Ah Yin before finally settling on the sliver of God King Divine Sense belonging to Tang San within Tang Hao.

"All right, it's time to clean house." The figure formed by Lei Chen spoke calmly. His voice was not loud, yet it carried the unmistakable weight of judgment. "Next, I'll wipe out you parasites clinging to this plane."

As Lei Chen's words fell, Tang San's sliver of divine thought was likewise filled with fury, shock, and urgency. He had never imagined that this newborn Plane Lord had not only prepared for this long ago, but had also secretly allied with the ruler of another plane and used the opportunity to break through to the First-level God realm in one stroke!

A First-level God Plane Lord on Douluo Star, his home ground, possessed strength sufficient to crush anyone of the same rank. Not to mention Tang Hao and Ah Yin, two ordinary Second-level Gods. The body-snatching plan had completely failed. Now, it would be a blessing if he could preserve his parents' lives!

"Father! Mother! Run!!" Tang San's divine thought made a snap decision and issued a piercing warning.

At the same time, that sliver of his God King-level Divine Sense began burning madly, erupting with power far beyond the Second-level God realm. It actually tore open an unstable spatial passage through the blockade of Lei Chen's First-level God pressure!

"Trying to run? Do you think it'll be that easy?" Lei Chen sneered, raising a hand and pointing. "Do you think my plane is a place you can enter and leave whenever you please?"

A seven-colored stream of light, containing the Douluo Plane's current vast origin power, shot toward the spatial passage like an arrow released from a bow, intending to shatter it completely!

At that critical moment—

"ROAR!!"

Two roars came from nearby. The enormous figures of the Azure Sky Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape suddenly appeared, their eyes vacant as they charged over like puppets on strings.

Within the Sea of Spirit of both the Azure Sky Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape were also Divine Senses left behind by Tang San. Clearly, they were now under the forcible control of Tang San's Divine Sense.

Without the slightest hesitation, under Tang San's divine thought's control, the Azure Sky Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, together with the two strands of God King Divine Sense in their Sea of Spirit, detonated themselves with a thunderous blast!

The destructive energy produced by the determined self-destruction of two Priest Level Soul Beasts and two strands of God King Divine Sense instantly swept outward. Though it was insufficient to harm Lei Chen at the First-level God realm, it successfully stalled the seven-colored stream of light for an instant and disrupted the stability of the surrounding space.

In that fleeting delay, Tang Hao and Ah Yin had already rushed into the tottering spatial passage under the protection of the burning Divine Sense and vanished.

With a wave of his hand, the figure formed by Lei Chen dispersed the aftermath of the self-destruction. Looking at the spatial passage slowly closing before him, he did not pursue. Seven colors flowed through his unfathomably deep eyes.

"Heh, to cover your parents' escape, you actually controlled your two Soul Beast brothers to self-destruct without hesitation? Decisive indeed."

"But you can save the old ones, not the young one. Your precious daughter will have to stay with me!"

The next moment, the seven-colored figure condensed by Lei Chen vanished from the area and descended beside an eleven-year-old girl of the Haotian Sect.

Before the girl, a strand of Tang San's Divine Sense was also burning, attempting to open a spatial passage. Unfortunately, this time there were no other God-level beings to self-destruct and buy him time.
