Just as Dugu Bo was looking forward to watching Lin Yi pick Immortal Herbs, the scene on the screen arrived at a world of seven colors.

"That's... the Jade Phosphorus Seven-Absolute Flower?"

"Heavens, how are there so many Jade Phosphorus Seven-Absolute Flowers?!"

Dugu Bo recognized the rare poison at once.

Following Lin Yi's route, he could confirm that the area surrounded by the Jade Phosphorus Seven-Absolute Flowers was the valley where the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well lay.

Yet now, the entire valley was concealed!

Outside, Jade Phosphorus Seven-Absolute Flowers covered the mountains and fields, making it look like a deathtrap at a glance.

Above the unbroken mountain range, seven-colored poisonous fog had gathered, completely sealing off the valley.

The valley should have been surrounded by mountains, with an opening above.

Now, from the outside, it looked entirely like a towering peak that reached into the clouds.

A section of the peak was shrouded in poisonous clouds.

Outsiders would only think it was a mountain.

They could never imagine that it was actually a valley.

The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was perfectly hidden.

"This is definitely not my doing." Dugu Bo's heart sank.

Spirit City.

Yue Guan's expression was grave.

"So the old poison's poisonous miasma spread out."

"The Jade Phosphorus Seven-Absolute Flower. The old poison is actually this venomous!"

Yue Guan had fought Dugu Bo for half his life and knew him quite well.

In the scene on the Heavenly Screen, Lin Yi stopped when he reached the area covered by Jade Phosphorus Seven-Absolute Flowers.

He began talking to himself again.

"Tang San, oh, Tang San, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well is a treasure basin nurtured by heaven and earth, yet you claimed it all for yourself. You really shouldn't have."

Lin Yi's muttering was naturally broadcast by the Heavenly Screen as well.

Hearing the name Lin Yi mentioned, many people in the Douluo I era were baffled.

Tang San?

Who was Tang San?

Yue Guan searched his memory, but he couldn't think of anyone by that name.

Gui Mei, beside him, also shook his head, indicating that he had never heard of him.

Inside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, a glint of killing intent appeared in Dugu Bo's eyes.

"Tang San? How did my Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well become his?"

Clearly, Dugu Bo already held a grudge against Tang San.

"It seems my name as Poison Douluo still isn't well known enough. How dare a nobody steal my treasure ground?"

Tang San, who was still waiting in Nuoding City for Yu Xiaogang to pack his things, wore a bewildered expression.

Tang San?

Was he talking about me?

His bewilderment gave way to wariness.

"With my Tang Sect Secret Arts, my father protecting me, Innate Full Soul Power, and Twin Martial Souls, my accomplishments in this life should indeed be considerable, at least in theory."

The current Tang San was not completely ignorant.

The appearance of the Heavenly Screen had thrown many of Tang Hao's arrangements into disarray, so he had told Tang San the main points about his talent outright.

Knowing how outstanding his talent was, Tang San was also confident that he could make a great name for himself in this life with his Tang Sect Secret Arts.

For that very reason, he felt certain that the Tang San Lin Yi mentioned was him.

And precisely because he was so certain, he now felt a chill rise through his body.

It would have been one thing if people merely knew his name.

The problem was that he seemed to be a wanted criminal!

His father was wanted and hunted by Spirit Hall, so in theory, he, as his son, also counted as a wanted criminal.

If his true identity were exposed... the consequences would be unthinkable!

At that thought, a glint of killing intent flashed in Tang San's eyes.

He immediately turned to look at Tang Hao, who was not far away.

"Father!"

"Everyone who knows my background has a way to die!"

Tang San spoke with utter decisiveness.

He was incomparably ruthless!

He showed none of the innocence and carefree nature a child his age should have.

Even Tang Hao was startled by the killing intent that flashed in Tang San's eyes.

Even he had never considered killing everyone who knew.

But when he thought of the consequences should Tang San's existence be exposed, Tang Hao took a deep breath.

"Xiao San, you're right."

For the sake of revenge, information about the two of them had to remain secret for the time being.

So...

Without another word, Tang Hao flashed away.

Douluo II.

[Who is Tang San?] ×99+

Lin Yi could no longer see exactly how many bullet comments were asking who Tang San was.

In any case, every single one was asking who Tang San was.

These should all have been bullet comments from Douluo I.

"Tang San hasn't made a name for himself yet. As expected, it's before the tournament."

Lin Yi stood where he was and waited for a moment.

He seemed to be looking for some weakness in the area covered by Jade Phosphorus Seven-Absolute Flowers.

In reality, his mind was focused on sensing the Heavenly Screen.

"There still hasn't been any response. It looks like I can be a little bolder."

He made a bold guess: the point in time in the Douluo I era was very early, so early that Tang San had not yet had much contact with the outside world.

Thinking of the timeline on his own side, Lin Yi couldn't help wondering, Could the story over in Douluo I have only just begun too?

Huo Yuhao had just been born.

Had Tang San just been born, or had he just awakened his Martial Soul?

Lin Yi thought it over, then stopped dwelling on it.

He had already established the approximate point in time in Douluo I.

Just then, Lin Yi saw a bullet comment.

[I happen to know a Blue Silver Grass Soul Master with Innate Full Soul Power named Tang San.]

As soon as this bullet comment appeared, Lin Yi knew that Tang San had already awakened his Martial Soul.

There was even a reply directly beneath the comment.

[Su Yuntao: Huh? You don't mean the one whose Martial Soul I awakened not long ago, do you? I remember awakening it in Holy Soul Village.]

Lin Yi's gaze immediately locked onto the reply from Su Yuntao.

Blind Douluo Su Yuntao!

The appraiser of godhood potential!

Legend had it that anyone whose Martial Soul he called a Trash Martial Soul had a limitless future!

Unexpectedly, the moment Su Yuntao spoke, he helped Lin Yi confirm a crucial piece of information.

Tang San had just awakened his Martial Soul.

There was a big difference between having already awakened his Martial Soul and having just awakened it.

"Everything is happening just as the story begins."

Lin Yi pondered.

"In that case, Tang San in the Douluo I era is still very vulnerable..."

Thinking about how he had to establish the Heaven and Earth Chess Game in the Douluo I era and indirectly influence its development, Lin Yi suddenly had an idea.

To establish the Heaven and Earth Chess Game, he first needed a certain degree of influence over the situation across the entire continent.

And Tang San could also be considered a child of fortune to a certain extent.

If he interfered with Tang San's fate, there was a good chance he could seize the opportunity to establish the Heaven and Earth Chess Game!

"Remotely direct some people in Douluo I to hunt down Tang San!"

Lin Yi soon made up his mind, deciding on the nature of what he would do in Douluo I.

Since Tang San used his greater age to bully the young in the current era, he would let Tang San have a taste of being bullied by his elders when he was at his weakest.

"With the Tang Sect Secret Arts at his disposal, Tang San won't be that easy to deal with, even if he's only just awakened his Martial Soul."

"I need to find a way to notify Spirit Hall in Douluo I."

"I hope they don't go feeding him experience one by one."

Lin Yi truly wanted to kill Tang San in Douluo I.

Although it had nothing to do with his current era, what if killing Tang San through another chess game gave him a certain advantage in the game he was playing now?

After all, he had established all the Heaven and Earth Chess Games himself.

Lin Yi took a deep breath, finished his deliberations, and continued talking to himself aloud.
