Got the guts to cross the ocean to Douluo Continent? Lu Ye: No need-my Xuanwu Continent will be there shortly!
[Xuanwu Great Emperor · Lu Ye: Tang Hao, Tang San. I must say, the arrogance and ignorance of your Clear Sky Sect have truly set a new low in my understanding of Douluo Continent's natives.]
Lu Changqing watched Tang San and the others' remarks in the Sky Screen livestream and laughed at their stupidity.
He also told Lu Ye a few things about Tang San and the others.
That way, Lu Ye could serve as his mouthpiece and give Tang San a good tongue-lashing on his behalf.
Lu Changqing had slumbered for a hundred thousand years and had now become the Xuanwu God King, possessing the divine status of Twin God Kings.
For him to personally deal with Tang San, who was still only a Soul Ancestor,
would not vent his anger; instead, it would make him feel as though he were using an ox-cleaver to kill a chicken.
In short: Lu Changqing disdained dealing with Tang San himself. It was beneath him!
On the Sky Screen, the golden words formed from Lu Ye's divine sense once again stood across the sky, carrying the chill of judgment:
[Xuanwu Great Emperor · Lu Ye: Do you know that the "Silver Emperor" is the leading figure of the Plant-type lineage on Xuanwu Continent? It commands three million Blue Silver clansmen, and there are even hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Kings among them!] [Xuanwu Great Emperor · Lu Ye: In its eyes, your Douluo Continent's so-called Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor was nothing but a fallen heretic, trapped in a remote corner, who went so far as to take human form and marry and bear a child with a mortal just to cling to life! Tang San, that impure human half of your bloodline is not noble in the eyes of a true two-hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor. It is lowly blood that defiles the plant imperial lineage!] [Xuanwu Great Emperor · Lu Ye: If you truly dare set foot in Blue Silver Forest, the Silver Emperor will not bow down in worship. Instead, it will regard you as a disgrace to the imperial lineage. It will instantly drain every trace of Blue Silver essence from your body, grind your bones and scatter your ashes, turning you into fertilizer to heal its wounds!]
Every word struck at the heart!
On the ancient road, Tang San read the words on the screen, his entire face instantly turning the color of pig liver. A mouthful of blood nearly surged out of his chest!
"A disgrace?
Lowly blood?
Fertilizer?!"
Tang San clutched the hem of his clothes in a death grip, his eyes blazing with the intense light of Purple Demon Eye, his expression hideously twisted:
"How dare you!
I, Tang San, possess the supreme arts of the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record! I am a genius such as the Tang Sect rarely sees!
My mother was the supreme Blue Silver Emperor! How could her blood be lowly?!
That Silver Emperor is nothing but a wretched plant beast that has never seen a true divine cultivation art.
Once I find it, I will suppress it utterly with Hidden Weapons, extract its Soul Bone, strip away its origin, and make it kneel and beg me to take it in!"
Tang Hao's face was likewise livid. His iron fists cracked as he clenched them, nine Soul Rings flickering around him as his killing intent surged to the heavens:
"What an outrageously arrogant Xuanwu Great Emperor!
You brat Lu Ye, stop bluffing!
A Soul Beast is a Soul Beast. Why would it scorn pure imperial blood?
You clearly fear my son San's talent! You fear us gaining the Silver Emperor's aid and upsetting the balance between the two worlds!"
[Tang Hao: Lu Ye! Stop misleading everyone with your lies! Even if Xuanwu Continent has ferocious beasts as numerous as clouds and soul tools sounding in unison, so what? The two worlds are separated by the Endless Ocean and spatial barriers. However powerful your Xuanwu Continent may be, can it fly all the way to Douluo Continent? Give me your coordinates if you have the guts! Once I cross the sea, I will smash your imperial palace with a single hammer blow!] [Dai Mubai: His Excellency Haotian is mighty! Tear those arrogant fools' mouths apart!] [Ma Hongjun: Exactly! Anyone can boast from behind a screen! Come over and fight if you have the guts!] [Yu Yuanzhen: With Elder Consecrator Qian here, and Clear Sky Douluo as well, do you think a few words can frighten away the foundations of our Douluo Continent? Across the sea, you are nothing but a pack of capering clowns!]
The Soul Masters of Douluo Continent seemed to have found their final source of confidence and began clamoring in the bullet comments.
In their eyes, no matter how terrifying Xuanwu Continent appeared, Douluo Continent was absolutely safe as long as the sea lay between them.
Deep in the abyss, a hundred thousand feet beneath the sea.
Lu Changqing's enormous Xuanwu body lay immersed in the cold, boundless, deathly silent ocean. His four feet shattered the undercurrents as he bore the continent above him toward Douluo Continent with steady, unstoppable momentum.
The savage serpent head, tens of millions of feet long and coiled over the tortoise shell, watched the comments flashing across the Sky Screen. Its scarlet forked tongue tore through the seawater as it let out thunderous laughter:
"Hahahaha!
Old tortoise, look at these frogs at the bottom of a well!"
"That blacksmith called Tang Hao threatened to cross the sea and smash the imperial palace with one hammer blow, while those popes and elders of Spirit Hall are still planning to assemble fleets and sail out to hunt ferocious beasts..."
"Do they really think Xuanwu Continent is a dead landmass sitting obediently hundreds of millions of miles away, letting them scheme against it? Hahahaha!"
Lu Changqing's Xuanming giant eyes, like two cold moons, opened and closed slightly. His gaze pierced the layers of surging currents as he replied indifferently:
"Only the ignorant can be so arrogant.
Since they are so eager to die, Lu Ye, tell them the truth."
"As you command, Ancestor."
Before the Hall of Supreme Ultimate, in Xuanwu City.
Clad in the Black-Gold Emperor Robe, Lu Ye stood with his hands behind his back, his majestic gaze piercing the sea of clouds. He raised his right hand, and his vast divine sense plunged like thunder into the Sky Screen livestream, slamming a line of cold, murderous words into the very center of the Douluo Continent section!
[Xuanwu Great Emperor · Lu Ye: Tang Hao, Bibi Dong, Yu Yuanzhen, and every mortal on Douluo Continent.] [Xuanwu Great Emperor · Lu Ye: From beginning to end, you seem to have been making your clever little calculations around something utterly absurd.] [Xuanwu Great Emperor · Lu Ye: An overseas expedition? Crossing the ocean for Soul Hunting? A standoff across the sea?] [Xuanwu Great Emperor · Lu Ye: You think the Endless Ocean still separates the two worlds, and that Xuanwu Continent is a stationary landmass forever sitting beyond the storms, isolated from the world?] [Xuanwu Great Emperor · Lu Ye: Utterly wrong!]
RUMBLE-!!!
As Lu Ye spoke, the image in the Sky Screen livestream abruptly changed!
The previous images, text, and discussion area were instantly forced to the edges. The entire Sky Screen expanded into an overhead orbital projection from an altitude far beyond mortal vision!
It was a panoramic aerial view of Douluo Star that made souls tremble!
Within the image, on the boundless azure surface of the planet, the familiar, sprawling outline of Douluo Continent lay to the right.
And at the opposite end of the ocean, a towering continent fully half the size of Douluo Continent was clearly revealed before every living being beneath the heavens.
Upon that continent, mountain ranges wound like azure dragons, and countless soul-tool cities shone with brilliant pillars of energy.
Vast spiritual Qi and thunderclouds swirled, gathering and dispersing above it.
Yet what truly brought the hearts of the billions of beings on Douluo Continent to a sudden halt was the raging sea around that continent!
Across an endless expanse of ocean covering fully half of Douluo Star, a monstrous rift stretching untold tens of millions of miles had been forcibly plowed open!
Tens of thousands of violent tsunamis pushed madly outward in arcs, while fierce winds tore apart the heavens!
That vast, boundless empire was actually defying every geological law of heaven and earth.
Across the immense waves, with a terrifying speed that seemed slow and ponderous but in truth tore through the raging surf, it was "drifting" straight toward Douluo Continent at full speed!
[Xuanwu Great Emperor · Lu Ye: The Xuanwu Empire has never needed an expeditionary fleet.] [Xuanwu Great Emperor · Lu Ye: Because the entire Xuanwu Continent is bearing down upon you under the Ancestor's mighty power!] [Xuanwu Great Emperor · Lu Ye: You need not cross the sea, nor worry about this oceanic barrier. Sit tight and watch us crash into you.]
