Although Tang San's damage was negligible to Tang Lan,
that still depended on who the opponent was.
Under normal circumstances—
"This Fifth Soul Skill is actually pretty good."
Tang Lan praised—
"It gives your Blue Silver Grass extremely high mobility. That way, the two hundred-thousand-year soul skills from your Fourth Soul Ring won't have to worry about missing their target."
"And it also adds lightning-attribute paralysis. Your control-type build is getting more and more flavorful."
Even so,
watching Tang Lan stand there completely unharmed, Tang San felt a wave of frustration rise in his heart.
Still far from enough?
Tang Lan noticed and found it somewhat amusing.
"Little San, did you forget that I'm level 76?"
"And not a normal level 76."
"Not to mention I also have Extreme Lightning, Extreme Ice, and Extreme Soul attributes."
"Even ordinary Titled Douluo wouldn't be able to injure me."
"If you could hurt me, that would be strange."
Tang San: "…"
Why did it sound likeTang Lan was his natural enemy?
Everything seemed to counter him?
But on second thought—
Tang San's current achievements were all raised by Tang Lan's "frugal feeding."
Their attributes were naturally similar, yet vastly different in strength.
That was why it felt like an absolute counter.
After adjusting his mindset,
Tang San said confidently, "Brother, I can be considered a genius in the Tang Sect now, right?"
The sky cleared, the rain stopped.
Little San felt like he could do it again.
Tang Lan smiled and nodded—this was good.
Compared to Tang San sinking into research and neglecting cultivation for a bit of reward,
a high-spirited Tang San would be far more proactive in snatching opportunities.
That way Tang Lan could secretly manipulate things and farm rewards.
"We should go." Tang Lan said. "First return to Sea God Island and clear the First Trial."
"As for Slaughter City, I've had some unexpected gains."
"If the plan goes smoothly, it may not be long before I can take you all to group-farm the Killing God Domain."
Tang San's eyes lit up!
Group-farm the Killing God Domain?
"Brother! Is that really possible?"
"What, don't believe me?"
"Of course not!" Tang San hurriedly said. "It's just that this is too unbelievable, I—"
"Is anything I've done ever ordinary?" Tang Lan asked back.
Tang San thought about it.
That really was true.
Whenever Tang Lan acted, it was always a grand move unseen before.
"Then brother, do you need my help?" Tang San said enthusiastically. "I'm already level 51. I can do a lot!"
Hmm.
Seeing Tang San so motivated, Tang Lan almost couldn't bear to crush his enthusiasm.
Let alone level 51—
Even a Soul Douluo wouldn't be worth much in Tang Lan's eyes.
At the very least, one had to be a Titled Douluo to qualify for a conversation.
As for Tang San—
"Your top priority right now is still cultivation, and preparing for the Elite Tournament."
Tang Lan tried to be as tactful as possible—
"Winning an Elite Tournament championship for the Tang Sect Academy will also help establish the Tang Sect's reputation."
"And it'll open a good start for the follow-up plans."
"Perform well, and I'll let you be the team leader."
Hearing this, Tang San was filled with excitement!
"Brother! Just watch me!"
Tang Lan nodded in satisfaction.
He placed a Vast Sea Soul Seal on Tang San and tossed him into the Blue King.
Just as he was about to leave—
He suddenly paused!
He received a trace of information from Qian Palace—the Blue Silver King that had awakened Tang Lan.
He took out his communication soul tool.
It immediately began to vibrate.
Connected.
The image of a white-haired old man from Qian Palace appeared.
"Your Majesty, we finally managed to contact you!"
Qian Palace hurriedly said—
"Deputy Sect Master Zhao asked me to report to you: the Fourth Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, Xue Beng, was assassinated three days ago."
"The Third Elder was present at the time, but the attackers had two Titled Douluo, and one of them was extremely effective against the Third Elder's poison."
"Fortunately, the Third Elder broke through to level 95 in battle, barely holding them back until the Second Elder arrived to reinforce."
"But Prince Xue Beng was still blasted away by the aftershock, and has been unconscious ever since."
"The diagnosis shows severe soul damage. He'll likely never wake up in this lifetime."
"Deputy Sect Master Zhao wants to ask how the Tang Sect should express its stance now."
Not many people knew about Tang Lan and Qian Renxue's "private relationship."
To outsiders,
the Tang Sect had fallen out with the Crown Prince, been drawn over by the Fourth Prince, and become the backbone of his faction.
That was why Xue Beng could move around Heaven Dou City under Dugu Bo's protection.
Who would have thought—
the attackers would include two Titled Douluo, and even counter Dugu Bo's Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison.
That was interesting.
—No need to guess, it was definitely the Spirit Hall!
Qian Renxue had grown impatient!
He would accept this big gift!
"I understand the situation." Tang Lan said. "Tell Old Zhao that the Tang Sect doesn't need to make any statement. Before I return, just do your duties properly."
Qian Palace nodded in agreement.
"Your Majesty, there are a few more matters to report."
Qian Palace continued—
"In a little over two months, the Elite Tournament will begin."
"Deputy Sect Master Zhao has already submitted you and several other core disciples as a seeded first-team roster."
"At the same time, that period is also the day of continent-wide martial soul awakenings."
"According to your instructions, Deputy Sect Master Zhao has already cultivated a group of exceptionally talented children, and asks whether to wait for your return before awakening their martial souls?"
This matter—
Tang Lan said casually, "If I haven't returned by then, just have the White Crane side start a full-continent livestream."
"Yes!"
With no other matters to report,
Tang Lan hung up the communication and turned into a streak of blood-light, shooting westward.
He landed precisely at the steps beneath the Sea God Temple.
He released Tang San and also lifted the Vast Sea Soul Seal of the Sea God imprint.
"Zhu Rong."
Zhu Rong, who had been cultivating on the steps,
immediately withdrew his cultivation.
With a leap, he shot down and landed steadily before Tang Lan.
"Sect Master, you called for me?"
"Call them all up." Tang Lan instructed. "Proceed the same way as before."
"Yes, Sect Master!"
Tang Lan passed by Zhu Rong.
He ascended the steps at high speed, not disturbing anyone cultivating along the way.
Relying solely on his physical body,
he charged all the way to the 200th step.
Only then did his speed slow slightly.
Yet his footsteps remained steady as he crossed the 250th step.
Finally, he stopped at the 298th step.
Only 35 steps remained to reach the 333rd step required to complete the First Trial.
And up to this moment—
Tang Lan had only used his physique!
No soul power, soul bones, soul skills, or domains—none at all.
What did this represent?
He could complete the First Trial at any time.
But Tang Lan wasn't in a hurry.
He sat down cross-legged on the 298th step and began circulating the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Art, drawing in and exhaling the energy of heaven and earth.
Worth noting—
the Sea God's Light on these steps was not the genuine Sea God's Light, but a simulation created through an array.
And arrays required energy to operate.
As a result,
the energy density on these steps far exceeded that of the outside world.
The Nine Revolutions Golden Body Art was extremely霸道, directly plundering the energy maintaining the Sea God's Light to strengthen his own cultivation.
This was no longer grazing wool—
this was outright robbery!
