Longevity Sect, Cloudsea Hall.

Cold, clear clouds hung motionless in the air. A pitch-black map fragment of the Asura God Realm floated in midair, its patterns sinister and strange. Li Xuan casually put away the map and turned his indifferent gaze toward Heaven Dou City.

In his mind, the system data was clearly displayed, its numbers precise and cold.

[Current Shock Points Balance: 69,400,000.] [Unlocked Access: Regional Map of the Asura God Realm.] [Character Status: Tang Chen (Divine soul incomplete, intensely hostile toward gods).]

The previous Sky Screen had torn open the Asura God's dark secrets, exposing Tang Chen's century-long suffering in captivity.

The three Peerless Douluo had all seen through the gods' hypocrisy, and an anti-god wave had completely taken shape across the continent. The filthy pasts of the Sea God, Angel God, and Asura God—the three Main Gods—had been laid bare, shattering their divine halos into worthless dust.

The gods' stains had all been exposed. Next, it was time to judge the greatest beneficiary of this age—Tang San.

And to utterly destroy Tang San, he first had to dig out the filth at his roots.

That was the Tang Sect, long destroyed, yet resurrected by him once more.

Li Xuan lightly tapped the white jade throne with his fingertips, his tone calm and flat.

"System, begin the tenth Sky Screen Review."

"Theme: <Tang Sect Secret History, Bloodstained Hidden Weapons Buried Beneath Corpses>."

[Command confirmed! Sky Screen loaded!] [This review: The bloodstained dark secrets of the Tang Sect, buried by history!]

Bzzzt—!

The dark, ink-black Sky Screen slowly enveloped the entire Douluo Continent.

There was no sacred golden radiance, no icy deep blue, no violent crimson.

This time, the Sky Screen was a blackness steeped in utter deathly silence, like an ancient coffin buried deep underground—oppressive, sinister, and chilling to the bone.

Upon the ink-black Sky Screen, a line of scarlet, corroded lettering slowly emerged, horrifying to behold.

[Douluo Regrets Reckoning, Tenth Review: Poisoned Hidden Weapons, Blood-Soaked Tang Sect.] [This issue exposes: The ancient Tang Sect, which slaughtered fellow disciples, massacred innocents, and extinguished all humanity!]

The icy words pierced to the bone, instantly tugging at the nerves of everyone across the continent.

Over the past few days, the Sky Screen had continuously exposed the gods' darkness and the tragedies of powerful figures. The continent's people had already developed an instinctive reverence for it.

Anything named by the Sky Screen could never be innocent.

Heaven Dou City, a remote forest.

Tang San wore the False Sea God Divine Armor, his expression dark as he clenched his fists tightly. Beside him, Xiao Wu's face was pale, her large eyes filled with terror as she pressed herself close to Tang San.

Ever since Li Xuan had saved them last time, the two had been hiding all the way, not daring to enter any crowds.

Wanted across the entire continent, hated by everyone, with nowhere to settle—once high-spirited young prodigies, they were now like stray dogs.

Now that the Sky Screen had named the Tang Sect, Tang San's spine suddenly turned cold.

The Tang Sect was his obsession from his previous life, his home in this life, the foundation of his very existence.

In his heart, the Tang Sect was righteous and enduring, hateful toward evil, unmatched in hidden weapons—the purest and most powerful sect in the world.

"Impossible... The Tang Sect was absolutely not like this!"

Tang San growled hoarsely. Blue Silver Grass instinctively burst from the ground as his emotions surged violently.

The Sky Screen ignored his resistance, and an icy scene abruptly unfolded.

The scene traveled back ten thousand years, to the ancient Tang Sect nestled amid the mountains of Bashu.

Blue brick, black tiles, pavilions rising one after another, and a solemn mountain gate—it had once been the continent's greatest hidden weapon sect.

But beneath its glamorous exterior, it had long since rotted and stank.

[The world knows that the Tang Sect's hidden weapons were unmatched beneath the heavens, and its poisoning methods were supreme.] [Yet no one knows that the Tang Sect's rise was paved with the corpses of innocent living beings.] [To develop deadly hidden weapons and refine tyrannical poisons, the Tang Sect captured nonhuman races, civilians, and low-level soul masters year-round for use in live experiments.]

The scene was cruel and blunt, without the slightest concealment.

Within dark dungeons, countless ordinary people were bound in iron chains. Inner disciples of the Tang Sect held strange poison needles and sinister hidden weapons, conducting test after test on living subjects. Screams and wails never ceased. Blood soaked the bluestone slabs, while poisonous liquid corroded corpses and bones.

Every hidden weapon's birth required living sacrifices; every poison's development cost lives.

[Outer disciples possessed mediocre talent and had no right to cultivate core secret arts.] [To keep their hidden weapon secrets, the inner sect established a brutal rule: all outer disciples were silenced upon reaching the age of twenty.] [Kin slaughtered kin, brothers killed brothers. Countless outer disciples died miserably within the sect's high walls.]

Boom!

That single statement shattered everyone's understanding.

Outer disciples had all entered the sect and cultivated with painstaking effort.

Yet in the end, there was no reward and no way out. Once they reached twenty, they were directly slaughtered by their fellow disciples and silenced.

All just to protect hidden weapon secrets?

Cruel, cold-blooded, utterly inhuman.

The entire continent erupted in uproar.

"So the ancient Tang Sect was actually such an evil sect?"

"Using living people to refine poison and slaughtering outer disciples—this is nothing but a demonic, wicked path!"

"Tang San has always praised the Tang Sect. Does that mean he intends to recreate such a bloody legacy too?"

Questions, curses, and suspicions swept across the continent.

Shrek Academy, its ruined training grounds.

Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and the others stood frozen, staring at the Sky Screen in disbelief.

They had followed Tang San all along. They knew how deeply attached he was to his ideals and emotions, and they had always believed the Tang Sect was a righteous sect.

But the bloody scenes before them overturned everything they knew.

Yu Xiaogang knelt on the icy ground, his face ashen as he said nothing.

He no longer had the face to judge anyone or any sect. All that remained in him now was endless numbness.

The Sky Screen's revelations continued.

[At the height of the Tang Sect's prosperity, its ambitions swelled.] [To monopolize hidden weapon resources, it secretly ambushed neutral sects, slaughtered weapon-refining clans, and plundered materials, cultivation methods, and secret manuals.] [Its methods were ruthless and vicious. It left no survivors, offending half the continent's powers.] [In the end, the major sects joined forces to besiege it and destroy the sinful Tang Sect in the name of justice.]

The scene showed the battle that destroyed the Tang Sect.

The mountains trembled, flames of war stretched to the heavens, and countless experts from various sects charged into the Tang Sect together.

The once-arrogant hidden weapon sect became a river of blood, corpses scattered everywhere. Nearly all of the Tang Sect's direct line was exterminated.

That was not the destruction of an innocent sect. It was evil reaping what it had sown.

At the end of the Sky Screen, a line of massive blood-red words burned fiercely into the sky.

[The so-called Tang Sect possessed no virtue, no compassion, no righteousness.] [A filthy sect stained with blood had no right to call itself a righteous orthodox sect.]

Within the forest.

Tang San trembled all over, his blood and qi churning as a mouthful of blood burst uncontrollably from his lips.

Scarlet blood splattered across his golden divine armor, glaringly bright.

He could not accept it.

After transmigrating and being reborn, he had devoted himself to reviving the Tang Sect. He regarded the Tang Sect as his faith and hidden weapons as his pride.

Yet the Sky Screen bluntly told him—

The sect he had yearned for and obsessed over his entire life had been a filthy, bloody evil sect from its very roots.

"Lies... This is all fake!!"

Tang San's eyes turned crimson as he roared madly. The Clear Sky Hammer smashed into the ground with a thunderous crash, sending dust flying everywhere.

Xiao Wu trembled in fright, tears filling her eyes as she tightly clutched Tang San's sleeve, too afraid to speak.

[Ding! Detected Tang San's beliefs collapsing and severe mental fluctuations!] [Collapse Points gained: +4,700,000!] [Contempt Points gained: +5,300,000!] [Current Shock Points Balance: 79,400,000!] [Reward issued: Divine-grade Item—Tang Sect Annihilation Stele (Replica).]

Longevity Sect, Cloudsea Hall.

A cold, pitch-black stone stele slowly appeared. Its surface was carved with ancient, bloodstained patterns, recording every bloody sin committed by the Tang Sect over the past ten thousand years.

Li Xuan lightly touched the stele with his fingertips. Its chill pierced straight to the bone.

"The ancient Tang Sect was steeped in evil. Its destruction was Heaven's will."

"And you, Tang San, knew it was filthy, yet stubbornly insisted on reviving that bloody sect."

He lowered his gaze toward the disheveled, crazed Tang San below, a cold sneer curling across his lips.

Memories of a previous life were not an opportunity. They were shackles.

Returning through rebirth was not a blessing. It was retribution.

The Sky Screen's ink-black hue slowly faded. The wind across the continent howled bleakly, and everyone fell silent.

Just as everyone watched the collapsing, crazed Tang San with complicated feelings, a black-and-scarlet announcement was suddenly carved across the heavens.

[Next Issue Preview: Tang San's Original Sin.] [The extermination of the entire Man Faced Demon Spider clan, and the true face behind his hypocritical kindness!]

Within the forest, Tang San's pupils suddenly contracted, and his entire body went cold.

The Man Faced Demon Spider?

That bloody past he had deliberately forgotten, deliberately glorified, and deliberately buried would ultimately be exposed to the world.

Li Xuan gazed toward that forest from afar, bone-deep coldness in his eyes.

"Tang San, your sins have only just begun."
