Things on the Douluo Continent were like a wild horse, increasingly deviating from his predetermined course.
The chosen one, Huo Yuhao, did not follow his instructions to establish contact with the Tang Sect and Shrek, and even went so far as to become their adversary.
And then there's Kong Xuan, this sudden and unexpected variable!
The Sea God had always been a master strategist who controlled all living beings with the chessboard, felt for the first time a strong sense of powerlessness and being overwhelmed.
The chaos in the mortal realm and the power struggles in the Divine Realm intertwined, leaving him utterly exhausted.
Just as he was rubbing his temples, trying to untangle this mess...
"Buzz!!!"
A faint yet familiar fluctuation, carrying an anxious aura, pierced through the barrier of the Divine Realm and touched the core of his divine power.
Tang San focused his mind slightly, surveying the area, and already knew that this was a "call" from Niu Tian.
As one of his backup plans left on the Douluo Continent, Niu Tian and Tai Tan both had direct means of contacting him.
" Tai Tan has fallen!"
Sensing the message conveyed by Niu Tian, Tang San fell silent.
For him, this was nothing new.
But the message that Niu Tian then relayed made Tang San lose his composure.
Niu Tian said he had found Kong Xuan and was preparing to avenge Tai Tan.
If the opponent has some backup plan and wants to use Tang San's strength to fight against them.
Tang San's expressionless face suddenly froze, as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over him from head to toe.
All emotions vanished instantly, replaced by an indescribable, almost instinctive palpitation and panic.
Kong Xuan!
It's that kid again!
Previously, he used the Tai Tan's body to perform Divine Descent, believing that as the will of a God King, he should sweep away everything with absolute power and punish that little bug that repeatedly disrupted his plans.
However, what awaited him was a gigantic golden staff that stretched from the Tongtian to the earth, seemingly capable of shattering the sky and tearing apart the stars.
What terrifying power that was!
Domineering, wild, and filled with an absolute will to crush everything!
It even surpasses most of the Divine Power he knows!
Before that giant club, the God King will he unleashed, along with the Tai Tan's formidable physical body, was as fragile as paper.
Without even a sliver of room to resist, they were instantly crushed and annihilated!
The overwhelming feeling brought by that absolute power, the terrifying experience of having one's own will forcibly shattered, was an experience Tang San had never had since becoming a god.
It even made this God King feel a sense of insignificance at that moment.
Even now, thinking back on it, his heart trembles slightly, and he still feels lingering fear.
If you agree to Niu Tian's request, you're not helping him, you're courting death!
It's like sending one of your top generals down under that terrible stick!
He left behind limited contingency plans on the Douluo Continent, and he can't afford to waste them.
Moreover, the previous Divine Descent was forcibly dispersed, which also caused a certain backlash to his Divine Sense.
He couldn't even imagine the consequences if it happened again.
Almost instinctively, Tang San asked in a slightly exasperated tone, "What are you going to do with him?!"
This divine thought was no longer the majestic and vast voice of the Sea God as before; instead, it sounded like the angry and alarmed shout of someone whose tail had been stepped on.
In the lower realm, Niu Tian, who was immersed in boundless hatred and expecting Niu Tian gods to unleash their thunderous wrath to avenge his brother, was completely stunned by this sudden response that was entirely different from what he had anticipated!
Instead of offering any reassurance, the divine thought was filled with panic, and even a hint of barely concealed... fear!
A look of bewilderment and disbelief flashed in Niu Tian's blood-red pupils.
He almost thought he had sensed something wrong. Was Tang San, the God King with the Dual Godhood of Sea God and Asura God, afraid?
How is that possible?!
Just as Niu Tian was stunned, Tang San seemed to realize his loss of composure and quickly suppressed the trembling in his heart.
He adopted a more "reasonable" but still hurried tone, trying to appease and stop Niu Tian.
"This Kong Xuan is no ordinary person; he is from beyond the heavens and possesses abilities comparable to God King."
"I previously used Tai Tan's body to perform Divine Descent, but after a fierce battle, I was still defeated by him."
" Da Ming, you absolutely mustn't act rashly now. Xiao Wu has already lost her Er Ming; she can't lose you too!"
"The grudge against the Tai Tan will be avenged in the future, but not now!"
"You must leave immediately. The matter of Kong Xuan requires further consideration!"
A series of orders, delivered in an unquestionable tone, conveyed the same message: "Don't mess with him, run!"
Niu Tian stood frozen in mid-air, looking at Kong Xuan opposite him, who seemed completely at ease, as if victory was in his grasp. It turned out that Kong Xuan truly had the confidence to face everything head-on.
Sensing the "divine decree" from Tang San of the Divine Realm, a heart filled with vengeful rage instantly cooled down.
The bloodshot in Niu Tian's eyes faded, and his hands clenched so tightly that his bones cracked as he forced himself to calm down.
"This matter... is not over!"
Niu Tian left behind this harsh remark, then turned and left quickly without looking back.
Tang San's urging tone chilled him to the bone, but to elicit such an attitude from a God King, he knew that even if he joined the attack without regard for the consequences, it would only be a pointless death.
He concealed his deep resentment and withdrew temporarily.
Niu Tian knew that, given Tang San's personality, although he was "shrinking back" at this moment, he would definitely try his best to retaliate.
His strength was limited, so he could only place his hopes for revenge on Tang San!
High in the sky, the fierce winds still howled, yet they could not dispel the eerie, frozen atmosphere.
Niu Tian's sudden departure left Du Busi, who had been tense and ready for a fierce Du Busi, completely stunned.
His enormous hands remained in a slightly clenched, wary stance, and the surging dark green energy around him seemed somewhat sluggish due to this change.
His rugged face was filled with astonishment and deep bewilderment in his large, round eyes.
"You... you're leaving already?"
Du Busi murmured unconsciously, his voice like muffled thunder, carrying an air of disbelief.
One of the Limit Douluo, who had previously looked filled with hatred and determined to never give up.
Why did they suddenly turn around and leave so abruptly, even in a rather embarrassing manner?
Du Busi racked his brains but couldn't understand it at all; he simply couldn't comprehend Niu Tian's extremely abnormal behavior.
His gaze involuntarily fell on Kong Deming and his grandson Kong Xuan not far away. The calm and composed expressions on their faces now seemed particularly unfathomable to Du Busi.
Du Busi was shocked and couldn't imagine how this grandfather and grandson had managed to force back a Limit Douluo.
But the facts were undeniable, leaving him no choice but to believe them.
The hidden trump cards and power of this grandfather and grandson are perhaps far more terrifying and profound than he had previously estimated; they should absolutely not be underestimated!
His gaze toward Kong Deming and Kong Xuan completely transformed into a deep solemnity, even carrying a hint of... awe that he himself was unwilling to admit!
Kong Deming dispelled the protection of the Silver Moon Divine Light Shield, looked at the changing expression on Du Busi, and smiled, "Thank you for your help, Poison Sect Master."
Du Busi gave Kong Deming a deep look, his voice much lower and no longer as arrogant as before. "I haven't been of much help, Palace Master Kong, there's no need to be so polite."
Kong Deming could sense the change in Du Busi's attitude and, seizing the opportunity, asked, "Master Du, what are your thoughts on the previous proposal for cooperation?"
