Douluo Dalu - Volume 01-48

by Tang Jia San Shao

  The Seagod’s shadow disappeared, the once again black Seagod Trident returning to Tang San’s hand. However, shocking Tang San was that the Seagod’s Heart on its main blade had disappeared, exposing the empty cavity when he first saw the Seagod Trident. Having lost the Seagod’s Heart, even though the trident’s weight didn’t change, Tang San could clearly feel it seemed to have lost its soul, no longer giving that harmonious feeling, like he was holding a common weapon.

  Tang San finally understood what the Seagod meant when he said his inheritance would become harder. Maybe it was because the Seagod’s Heart disappeared. In order to save him before, the energy to attack, pull over the power of the ocean and help him completely recover, all came from the Seagod’s Heart!

  Holding the Seagod Trident close, tears rolled out. You still saved me, but I couldn’t save you. My partner, don’t worry, no matter the price, I will definitely help restore your soul and return that lost Seagod’s Heart.

  ……

  Boom, boom, boom…… The waves lashed the shore, constantly producing deafening roars. As far as the eye could see, the dark blue ocean was bathed in sunlight, creating a beautiful scenery. Smelling the refreshing air of the ocean, anyone would feel carefree and relaxed.

  Unfortunately, the six people standing on the shore didn’t feel any of that. Each of them were full of imposing manner, glittering spirit rings spinning around them. Even the one with the fewest possessed a full seven glittering spirit rings. And the other five uniformly had eight.

  One Spirit Sage, five Spirit Douluo, this would absolutely be a formidable force anywhere on the continent. But right now their eyes all revealed intense anxiety.

  “How come he still isn’t here? Boss Dai, let me go meet him.”

  Xiao Wu said anxiously.

  These six were no others than the six of the Shrek Seven Devils beside Tang San. They had already been by the ocean for a while and contacted the Devil Spirit Great White Sharks, waiting for Tang San to rush over and meet with them before leaving for Seagod Island.

  However, not long ago, they had received news of Tang San. The Seagod Trident’s golden light shooting towards the sky had made them nervous.

  Even though they all knew that there should be nobody on the continent that could threaten Tang San’s life, the Seagod’s Light was a previously agreed upon signal, letting them pay all attention to their safety.

  What worried them even more was that after that Seagod’s Light, unprecedented explosions and energy waves suddenly issued. Even though they hadn’t been anywhere near it, those violent waves had made the ocean surge. The Shrek Seven Devils had never felt energy waves on that level, and they were all instantly shocked, all releasing their spirits, ready to support Tang San at any time.

  However, after waiting for a long time from that enormous energy wave, the ground only seemed to tremble a few times, but they never sensed Tang San’s presence, let alone the figure of him arriving. How could they not be worried?

  The most anxious was naturally Xiao Wu, who proposed going to search for Tang San.

  “That won’t do. Xiao Wu, don’t worry.”

  Dai Mubai spoke quietly:

  “We agreed to meet Tang San here, we can’t just leave. I think little San met some trouble. But we have to believe in his strength. If you go to find him now, just in case you encounter danger or he arrives, wouldn’t we have to worry about you instead? Little San’s spirit power is already rank ninety three, plus he has the Seagod Trident and twin spirits, even rank ninety nine peak Douluo might not escape unharmed. He should arrive very soon, don’t you worry.”

  Ning Rongrong stepped up and held Xiao Wu’s hand,

  “Xiao Wu, boss Dai is right. If we scatter now it will instead cause problems. Going to find him together is better than you going off alone!”

  Xiao Wu quietly nodded, but she was still very worried. She’d once sacrificed herself for Tang San, and Tang San had then given his spirit rings to her. Therefore, there was a kind of special bond between her and Tang San. Even though Dai Mubai, Ning Rongrong and the others were making sense, under ordinary circumstances Tang San shouldn’t have met any danger he couldn’t escape, Xiao Wu still felt this time was different. That feeling of fear and trepidation made her extremely jittery and filled with concern.

  Waiting was a kind of torture, to anyone. A quarter of an hour passed very quickly, and Xiao Wu couldn’t help it any longer,

  “No good, I’m going to find him.”

  Speaking, she turned in the direction the Seagod’s Light was seen before.

  Zhu Zhuqing quickly held back Xiao Wu,

  “Xiao Wu, don’t be rash, let’s go together.”

  Xiao Wu’s eyes were already rimmed with red, tears rolling around,

  “Then let’s hurry. It’s different this time, really, this is different from before. I can feel it, Ge is in danger. We have to save him quickly.”

  Dai Mubai also didn’t hesitate further,

  “Let’s go, we’ll save little San.”

  “Hang on, look.”

  Just at this moment, Oscar suddenly shouted, and everyone looked in the direction of his voice, only to see the previously raging sea suddenly calm, all waves seeming to suddenly quiet down and the sea turning smooth as a mirror, like a giant lake. And under their gazes, about five hundred meters out, a giant whirlpool formed, surging energy waves dying the entire surface of the sea blue.

  “That’s……”

  Everyone looked shocked at the changed in the sea. Xiao Wu now jumped out,

  “That’s his energy, it’s the Seagod’s energy.”

  At the same moment as Xiao Wu leapt into the sea like a mermaid, with a soft splash, a figure shot out of the center of the whirlpool, directly into the sky. Wasn’t that Tang San?

  Only now he cut a sorry figure, completely naked, on both sides of his back still exposing the shattered remains of the Eight Spider Lances, the Seagod Trident even more lifeless and dull.

  “Little San, why’d you come from the sea?”

  Dai Mubai saw Tang San return, and even though he looked like he’d met a powerful enemy, he heaved a sigh of relief that the brothers were all gathered together.

  Tang San descended from the sky, landing straight in front of Xiao Wu in the sea, speaking in a low voice as he caught her in his arms:

  “There’s no time to explain, quickly, follow me to sea.”

  While speaking, the Seagod Trident brand on his forehead flashed with blue light, and the Vast Sea Barrier released, enveloping the six. Spirit power burst forth, pulling the six out to sea.

  Even though nobody knew what had happened, they hadn’t seen Tang San with such a serious expression for a very long time, and nobody asked questions, quickly following Tang San into the ocean.

  Just as they entered the sea, Tang San saw a friend quickly approaching the shore: Devil Spirit Great White Shark King Xiao Bai’s kinsmen. Altogether seven especially robust Devil Spirit Great White Sharks were quickly heading towards them. Clearly, they had also felt the waves of the Seagod’s power. Seeing them, Tang San couldn’t help being overjoyed, Quickly controlling the Vast Sea Barrier to reveal them, he summoned the Devil Spirit Great White Sharks and passed down orders to them with his mental power.

  The Devil Spirit Great White Shark clan was one of the tyrants of the sea, extremely intelligent, and the ones Xiao Bai sent all had cultivation over thirty thousand years. Immediately understanding Tang San’s idea, the seven Devil Spirit Great White Sharks simultaneously moved beneath the Vast Sea Barrier, and under Tang San’s control, the Vast Sea Barrier fused with them. They accelerated at the same time, immediately moving deeper into the ocean.

  Tang San discovered that the energy the Seagod infused into him not only let him recover his strength, but at the same time also strengthened his control over the Seagod’s Light as well as the abilities related to the Seagod. If it was previously, he absolutely wouldn’t be able to bring his six comrades and control the Vas
t Sea Barrier so cleverly. But no matter what, now they were finally safe.

  Using the Vast Sea Barrier on land and in the ocean were two completely different concepts. In the ocean, this Seagod ability could completely fuse with the entire sea, drawing on the power of the sea to hide them. Back when Tang San still couldn’t completely show its effect, Tang San could still rely on the Vast Sea Barrier to have the Shrek Seven Devils reach the Seagod Island. With his strength now geometrically increased, once the Seagod’s successor entered the sea, even Qian Renxue could do nothing.

  Less than a quarter hour after Tang San’s group entered the ocean, a golden figure descended from the sky, landing on the shore. Completely covered in Sacred Angelic Armor, Qian Renxue’s expression was extremely unsightly. The Seagod’s attack couldn’t truly harm her, just like she said, that was after all just the Seagod’s divine intent, and not the true Seagod’s strength. But, even though that Strength couldn’t harm her, it still pushed her almost ten kilometers away. At the same time, the divine intent she’d placed on Tang San was also forcefully broken. With great difficulty she had caught Tang San’s presence again, but now it had already disappeared completely.

  Chapter 303: Target, Deep Sea Demon Whale King

  Qian Renxue’s expression was so heavy you could wring water from it. She had never thought chasing Tang San would be this difficult. If last time in Star Dou Great Forest, she could be said not to have used her full strength, then this time she had fully displayed her god level strength, even using the Angelic Raiment’s abilities, but still couldn’t kill Tang San.

  However, Qian Renxue also clearly sensed that after the Seagod Trident blocked her, its soul had disappeared. That the Seagod’s intent could briefly show the Seagod’s full strength definitely didn’t come without cost. Under such circumstances, he definitely couldn’t take one more of her attacks.

  But seeing this bundless ocean, Qian Renxue felt a pang of powerlessness. The power of gods also had limits. Just like Tang San said, the meaning of gods on the Douluo Continent meant humans with a certain level of strength, or rather the strongest human spirit masters who broke through rank one hundred to reach another realm.

  Qian Renxue wasn’t in her own domain, and even her god level strength wasn’t omnipotent. At least, her divine senses would be enormously handicapped in the ocean. The deeper the sea, the greater the hindrance, far from as free as in the air. She was well aware that with Tang San’s abilities that received even the Seagod’s attention, finding him again was as difficult as climbing to heaven.

  Drawing a deep breath and calming her heard, recalling the previous underground battle, Qian Renxue couldn’t help sighing inwardly. What that divine intent Seagod said was right, even though she had become the God of Angels, she still hadn’t cultivated step by step to the god level. There were a lot of processes that her grandfather had helped simplify. She completely comprehended the spirit of the God of Angels, but she hadn’t fully grasped its full strength. Otherwise, how would there be so many delays and pauses when using the abilities, giving Tang San chances to take advantage of.

  Gazing into the boundless ocean, Qian Renxue’s heart gradually calmed. She was like Tang San, also a genius to define her era. Only these days her attitude had been influenced by all the escape techniques Tang San used. Seeing that she no longer had a chance to chase him, she on the contrary calmed down. She clearly understood that if she couldn’t erase the feelings of failure from being unable to catch Tang San, her cultivation might be influenced.

  Gradually calming down, the divine intent belonging to the God of Angels slowly circled around her. Bathed in sunshine, the Angelic Raiment glittered with dazzling light.

  “Tang San, since you’ve stepped onto the road to the Seagod’s inheritance, then with your intelligence and wisdom, you can definitely become the Seagod. Before and until now, I chased you to destroy you. It was to erase the insurmountable shock left in my heart. But now I won’t, I’ll just wait for you here, so what if it’s once you become Seagod? Once you’ve become a god, let us properly compete and see if your Seagod is amazing, or if my God of Angels is even stronger. Tang San, I’m waiting for you here.”

  Golden ripples poured into the seawater along with Qian Renxue’s voice. Even though she couldn’t rely on her divine intent to reach through Tang San’s Vast Sea Barrier, by now issuing her voice and relying on her formidable divine senses to send her voice into the ocean, then as long as Tang San was within a thousand li range, he would certainly hear her.

  Having said her piece, Qian Renxue sat down crosslegged in the sand, her eyes no longer emotional, anxious, or any other expression. Everything turned calm, just like when she saw Tang San after just becoming a god, and moreover even calmer than then. Not only her heart was calm, but even her soul.

  Taking the initiative to give up on chasing Tang San, and using her words to tell herself she would face Tang San as a god, allowed her to erase the feelings of failure she held. At the same time it also drew on the faith of never admitting defeat to finally raise her way of thinking from a human spirit master to that of a god. Angelic divine power connected in a flash of insight, without any more delays. It might be said that if Tang San had faced Qian Renxue in this condition, he basically wouldn’t have stood a chance of escaping. Qian Renxue could also be said to have truly stepped into the realm of gods with Tang San’s help, thoroughly becoming the God of Angels.

  That she decided to wait here for Tang San instead of returning to the Spirit Empire’s battlefield, that she was able to discard the outcome of the battle, amply displayed her current level. Here she would calm down, mastering everything granted to her after becoming god, truly displaying the might of gods.

  In the ocean, the swiftly moving Devil Spirit Great White Sharks suddenly slowed. Even though the seawater only rippled slightly in that undulation, at this moment, all creatures of the sea within a thousand li blanked out briefly, a clear voice reaching their minds.

  This voice was naturally also heard by the Shrek Seven Devils within the Vast Sea Barrier. Besides Tang San, the other six couldn’t help simultaneously changing expression, shocked lookinf at Tang San, their eyes filled with disbelief.

  In fact, even the weakest among them, Xiao Wu, still had Spirit Sage level strength, as well as extensive experience from cultivating as a spirit beast for a hundred thousand years, but they had never thought someone could spread their voice through seawater, and that instant shock also made their souls tremble. At this moment, they finally understood why Tang San was so disheveled, and moreover quickly submerged them into the sea as if anxious. What kind of existence was the owner of this voice?

  Right now, with the Devil Spirit Great White Sharks moving at full speed, even though it hadn’t been long, the Shrek Seven Devils were already several dozen li from the shore. Relying on the protection of the Vast Sea Barrier, plus the cover of seawater, Tang San could be certain that even if Qian Renxue was omniscient, it would still be impossible to find them. His mind now finally relaxed a bit. However, as he saw the cavity on the Seagod Trident missing the Seagod’s Heart, he couldn’t help frowning.

  Ma Hongjun wanted to ask about it, but was stopped by a glance from Dai Mubai. Ma Hongjun immediately came to himself. None of them had to ask Tang San. As brothers for so many years, they of course knew that if Tang San wanted to speak, he definitely would. Worrying was useless.

  Xiao Wu sat next to Tang San, observing the closest. She clearly saw that Tang San’s right hand gripping the Seagod Trident had turned pale, the joints clearly visible, clearly caused by overexertion. This voice had clearly provoked him.

  Xiao Wu silently wrapped Tang San’s big hand in her small ones. Feeling the warmth from Xiao Wu’s palms, Tang San turned his head to look at her, sighing:

  “In the last few days, not only did I feel like I wouldn’t see you again, even today, if not for a miracle, you might not even have found my corpse.”

  Tang San finally spoke, and everyone
couldn’t help asking questions. Dai Mubai frowned:

  “Was it the owner of that voice? How did she do it? How can her voice pass through the sea? Don’t tell me she’s even stronger than Bibi Dong? But Bibi Dong is already rank ninety eight or ninety nine. If someone was even stronger than her it would at most be in terms of spirit. There can’t be a triple spirit enemy. Even if there was, with your current strength plus the Seagod Trident, it wouldn’t be so bad as to force you to run like this!”

  Tang San gave a wry laugh. He knew that his comrades wouldn’t think in that direction. Even though he could guess Qian Renxue’s strength, he also hadn’t thought Qian Renxue would be at such a level.

  “You all know that person. Las time in Heaven Dou City, she almost gained control over the imperial family as well as the entire empire. Her father was the previous Supreme Pontiff who died from wounds caused by my father. Her grandfather is the current Spirit Hall high priest, peak Douluo Qian Daoliu.”

  Oscar said:

  “You’re talking about Qian Renxue? How could she chase you like that? Was she together with her grandfather?”

  They could still understand if Qian Daoliu had chased Tang San.

  Tang San silently shook his head,

  “If it was Qian Daoliu, I would at least have thirty percent certainty of defending myself, with seventy percent chance of being able to smoothly escape. But against Qian Renxue, I don’t have ten percent chance. This time it was all due to relying on effort, courage as well as abilities, and even more luck, that I could see you all again. Because, Qian Renxue is no longer human.”

  Ma Hongjun subconsciously said:

  “Not human? Then what? Don’t tell me she’s a hundred thousand year spirit beast too?”

  Ma Hongjun reacted slow, but that didn’t mean the others did. Understanding most clearly, Oscar’s mouth opened wide, Ning Rongrong covered her mouth, keeping herself from crying out. Xiao Wu who originally just softly held Tang San’s hand tightened her grip at the same time as her eyes filled with shock, as if afraid she would lose Tang San immediately.
