Chapter 251 Tang San in Action.
While Tang San and Tang Hao returned to the Clear Sky Sect, Wang Xiaofei kept a close eye on their movements.
Especially when Tang San left the Clear Sky Sect, Wang Xiaofei roughly guessed Tang San's purpose. Judging from the current situation, Tang San was probably going to find Dai Mubai and his group.
Just as Wang Xiaofei expected, although Tang San inherited the position of the God of Asura, he was only level 100 upon becoming the God of Asura, arguably the lowest soul power level in the entire God Realm.
Especially since the God of Asura, as the God of Law Enforcement, needed to maintain order throughout the God Realm.
This resulted in Tang San having no friends or allies in the entire God Realm. To put it bluntly, even if someone broke the law in front of Tang San, he probably wouldn't dare to arrest them. As the God of Asura told Tang San, in the God Realm and everywhere else, strength is paramount.
In the original story, one reason Tang San achieved such success was that he brought a large group of people to the God Realm; these people were his forces, and it was through these forces that Tang San was able to compete with the Evil God King and others.
Currently in the God Realm, although the major God Kings outwardly treat Tang San politely, they in reality completely ignore him. Even the God King of Destruction and the God King of Evil are pursuing ultimate power.
Wang Xiaofei, despite absorbing countless amounts of Douluo Star's primordial power, remains stuck at level 140-something, never reaching level 150—meaning he's always at the Quasi-God King level. As for how to break through to the God King realm? He has no clue yet.
In the original novel, reaching the God King realm requires both destructive and creative power, but neither exists on Douluo Star. The only one who understands these powers is the Silver Dragon King, hidden in the Star Dou Great Forest.
However, it's clear the Silver Dragon King won't reveal these powers to him.
Another method is to pursue even more powerful chaotic power, but this is far more dangerous.
Given the current state of Douluo Star, and with everyone constantly watching Tang San, leaving is risky.
Killing Tang San is an option, but it's still impossible to execute. Tang San is, after all, the current Asura God, the enforcer of the God Realm. If he were truly killed, the four God Kings would definitely come looking for trouble, and might even destroy Douluo Star.
Originally, Wang Xiaofei's plan was to delay as long as possible, ideally until 20,000 years later, when the God Realm would be swept away by the space-time outflow, at which point he would have the final say in everything.
Or, he could wait until other gods were born in his camp before pursuing this ultimate power.
As for whether leaving Tang San alive would pose any threat? That was not a problem at all. Wang Xiaofei was now practically one with Douluo Star; he would dare to fight even a God King, the only fear being a fight to the death.
And indeed, the first person Tang San found was Dai Mubai. Among the Shrek Seven Devils, Dai Mubai was the strongest in terms of strength, and his talent ranked among the top three, making him the best candidate to become a god.
At this moment, Dai Mubai was handling sect affairs within the White Tiger Sect, while Zhu Zhuqing stayed beside him, dealing with miscellaneous tasks. The couple managed the sect together, their relationship seemingly harmonious.
Suddenly, a red figure flashed in the air—it was Tang San, the Asura God.
Dai Mubai was quite excited to see Tang San: "Little San, long time no see! I didn't expect you to return from the God Realm so quickly."
"Mubai, Zhuqing, long time no see."
"Little San, you're a god now. Twenty years is just a blink of an eye for you."
Tang San seemed to sigh as well: "The life of a god is long, but also very boring. My twenty years in the God Realm were far less joyful and happy than my time on Douluo Continent."
The three were silent for a while before Dai Mubai spoke: "Little San, is there something you need to do on Douluo Continent this time?"
Tang San shook his head: "I mainly returned to Douluo Continent to bring my parents back. My parents weren't used to life in the God Realm and wanted to return to Douluo Continent, so I brought them back."
"Also, I've met quite a few gods in the God Realm. Many of them intend to pass on their godhood, and I recommended the six of us from Shrek Academy to them. Many gods were quite interested."
After hearing Tang San's words, both Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing felt a strong longing. No matter what, becoming a god is the ultimate goal for any Soul Master.
But after a while, both of them calmed down.
Dai Mubai just sighed: "Little San, whoever becomes a Soul Master hopes to become a god. But we also understand the difficulty of becoming a god. After 20 years of hard training, my Soul Power has barely reached level 96, and Zhu Qing has only just broken through to the Title Douluo level."
"Among the six of us from Shrek Academy, only Xiao Ao has reached the Title Douluo level. Fatty hasn't broken through to the Title Douluo level yet, and Rongrong will probably stay at level 79 for the rest of her life."
"The most basic condition for becoming a god is to reach level 99. For the six of us to break through to level 99 without a special opportunity, it's probably harder than climbing to heaven."
Tang San fell silent again after hearing these words. He had reached level 99 only through twin martial souls, while the other six members of Shrek Academy did not possess twin martial souls. Although they all had good potential, none of them were as powerful as Tang San. The only one with hope was Oscar, after all, he was born with full soul power.
"Mu Bai, Zhu Qing, I can leave a trace of divine power within you for you two to study. This will greatly accelerate your future cultivation and your comprehension of higher realms."
Dai Mubai thought for a moment before speaking, "Xiao San, as far as I know, the Douluo Federation has researched a method for cultivating after becoming a Title Douluo. It seems that condensing a Soul Core can accelerate cultivation. However, my father also said that this is a closely guarded secret within the Douluo Federation, and only those who are absolutely loyal to the Douluo Federation can obtain it."
Tang San seemed a little surprised upon hearing this, "Soul Core? What is a Soul Core? Why have I never heard of it?"
"I heard that the Soul Core was developed by Emperor Wang Xiaofei of the Douluo Federation. It can increase the cultivation speed of a Title Douluo, and even greatly enhance a Soul Master's strength after condensing a Soul Core. I heard my father say that a Title Douluo with a Soul Core is much stronger than one without one."
Tang San seemed very angry, "The Douluo Federation relies on the method of condensing Soul Cores to attract high-level Soul Masters to join? That Wang Xiaofei is too despicable."
"Mu Bai, is there anything else happening in the Douluo Federation?"
"Xiao San, the Douluo Federation is developing very rapidly. Over 80% of the Soul Masters in the entire Soul Master world have joined the Douluo Federation, and its resources are incredibly abundant, with plenty of Soul Bones and Immortal Herbs. Some Immortal Herbs can even improve a Soul Master's aptitude."
"There are only three Level 99 Limit Douluo on the Douluo Continent, including your great-grandfather Tang Chen, as well as the Sword Douluo and Golden Crocodile Douluo of the Douluo Federation. It's said that there are also many Level 98 Title Douluo within the Douluo Federation."
"You should still remember Feng Xiaotian and Huo Wushuang, right? They're both already level 98. And Huo Wu and Shui Bing'er, as Wang Xiaofei's wives, are probably at least level 98 as well."
Tang San pondered for a moment before speaking, "Brother Dai, I'll give you a wisp of my divine power first. You and Zhu Qing should cultivate as soon as possible. I'll figure out the rest."
After speaking, a mysterious power seemed to emanate from Tang San's fingertips, directly entering Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing's bodies. The two seemed to feel an increase in their soul power and felt their cultivation speed had increased significantly.
After communicating with Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing for a while, Tang San left the White Tiger Sect.
Tang San's time was very tight. Since entering Douluo Star, his divine power seemed to have been severely suppressed, and it would probably be suppressed to level 99 soon. This was only because of the extremely high status of the Law Enforcement God. Tang Hao and A Yin, on the other hand, were directly reduced to level 99 after entering Douluo Star.
Tang San didn't know much about the Douluo Federation, so he planned to consult his teacher, Yu Xiaogang. After all, his teacher was known as invincible in theory; surely he could discover something.
When Tang San arrived at Shrek Academy, he was shocked by Yu Xiaogang's appearance.
His teacher, Yu Xiaogang, had always appeared as a middle-aged man, showing no signs of age.
But in just 20 years, Yu Xiaogang had aged considerably.
His hair and beard were now snow-white, and his face was covered in wrinkles. He looked nothing like a Soul Master; he resembled an old man on his deathbed.
Upon seeing Yu Xiaogang, Tang San immediately bowed and said, "Teacher, it's been so long! I'm back."
Yu Xiaogang, seeing Tang San, burst into tears, "Little San, I never thought I'd see you again in my lifetime!"
"Teacher, it's only been 20 years, how come you've aged so much?"
Yu Xiaogang shook his head, "I'm just an ordinary Soul Master, of course I age. Little San, what brings you back this time?"
Tang San thought for a moment and then repeated what he had said to Dai Mubai.
Finally, he asked, "Teacher, do you know what a Soul Core is?"
Yu Xiaogang shook his head, "I've never heard of Soul Cores before. It's unbelievable that the Douluo Alliance still conducts research on them, and they only use them for their own benefit, without any thought of benefiting the Soul Master world."
Tang San had assumed his teacher would know something about Soul Cores, but it turned out his teacher had never even heard of them, which was a bit embarrassing.
Seeing Yu Xiaogang's somewhat disappointed expression, Tang San immediately comforted him, "Teacher, you are known throughout the Soul Master world as the invincible in theory, and you possess the Ten Core Theories of Martial Souls. I believe you will soon develop the Soul Core Theory."
Tang San's words of comfort only made things worse; Yu Xiaogang's face darkened completely.
