Chapter 235 - Chapter 235: Lan Fozi and the Demon Empress

Recalling his experience at Shrek Academy, Dugu Bo had personally witnessed the battle that led to the fall of the Dragon God Douluo Mu En and had personally felt the terrifying demigod-level power of the Snow Empress. That experience was like a brand seared into his heart.

After returning to the Body Sect, he pondered day and night and had an epiphany, so he resolutely chose to go into seclusion to break through. Perhaps because the rules of the Douluo Continent were quietly changing, and the entire continent was gradually becoming stronger, the restrictions on powerful individuals began to become less strict. With this opportunity, Dugu Bo, relying on his own accumulation and foundation, finally successfully broke through and became a Limit Douluo standing at the peak of the continent.

"A Holy Grail War? How could my Body Sect miss out on such a spectacle? The position of Sea God is something we absolutely cannot miss."

As soon as Dugu Bo came out of seclusion, he received information about the Holy Grail War from the will of the planet. In an instant, a green flame ignited in his eyes—a burning desire for a divine position.

At the time, the Snow Empress was only a demigod, yet the powerful strength she displayed had already made Dugu Bo feel a deep sense of trepidation. Even now that he had successfully broken through to Limit Douluo, every time he recalled the Snow Empress's power, he still felt a lingering fear. He knew very well that even after breaking through, if he were to meet the Snow Empress with his current strength, the only option would probably be to run away.

If a demigod was already so powerful, then how unimaginably powerful would a true god be?

Dugu Bo's heart was filled with awe and anticipation. He had a premonition that in this era, a god might appear and recreate the spectacle of the war of three gods from ten thousand years ago.

At the Clear Sky Sect, Niutian and Titan received the news about the Holy Grail War almost at the same time. The two of them instinctively looked at each other, their eyes instantly filled with shock and astonishment. They had always maintained close contact with the God Realm, but before this, they had never heard the slightest rumor of Tang San wanting to pass down the position of Sea God. What was this sudden Holy Grail War all about? It was simply bewildering.

They were both people who had existed for ten thousand years, so they naturally knew a thing or two about divine trials. But with a little thought, they knew that this so-called Holy Grail War did not conform to the conventional model of a divine trial at all. No god's divine trial would be like this, let alone the inheritance of the Sea God's divine position. That was even more impossible.

"A Holy Grail War? The position of Sea God? Is Dad going to pass down his divine position?"

Tang Wutong tilted her head, her eyes full of confusion. She clearly remembered that her father had just successfully broken through the Sea God's divine position to the God King level not long ago. With her father's personality and the current situation, how could he suddenly decide to pass down his divine position? There must be a hidden reason.

"This Holy Grail War is strange. The way the Sea God's inheritance is being handled is also wrong. And we can't even contact the God Realm now. What on earth is going on?"

Niutian's brows were tightly furrowed, as if they could trap a fly. He was absolutely certain that Tang San had no intention of passing down the position of Sea God. Even if that day came, and he had to choose an heir, he would definitely prioritize Tang Wutong. If not, it would be his future son-in-law, or even a son he might have in the future. From every angle, it was impossible for Tang San to choose the Sea God's successor in such a strange way.

Coupled with the fact that they had lost contact with the God Realm, a vague sense of foreboding rose in Niutian's heart. He realized that the Douluo Continent was probably beginning to slip out of their control.

At this moment, the golden trident mark on Tang Wutong's forehead was faintly visible, emitting a mysterious and soft light. At the same time, in her spiritual space, a handsome young man with sea-blue hair slowly opened his eyes. He was Tang San's divine consciousness clone. The moment he awoke, he saw the current situation of the outside world.

He first frowned slightly, trying to establish contact with his main body, but he received no feedback. Under normal circumstances, being able to contact his main body meant that there were no serious problems in the God Realm, but now there was no feedback at all, which could only mean that his main body was in an extremely busy state and had no time to be distracted.

"Did Destruction do something and is my main body fighting him?" Tang San's divine consciousness clone frowned, thinking to himself.

The course of events had completely spiraled out of his control. First, Huo Yuhao escaped his control, and he might have mistaken the Son of Destiny, so he had no choice but to awaken Little Seven in advance and let her go contact the true Son of Destiny. Although this was a major mistake, there was still room for a turnaround. But what was this sudden Holy Grail War and the so-called Sea God's inheritance all about?

He could be a hundred percent certain that he had never had the idea of passing down the position of Sea God. After all, under the immense pressure from the God of Destruction, giving up his divine position would be like cutting off his own arms. How could he do such a stupid thing?

"Who on earth dares to plot against me like this? Damn it!" Tang San's divine consciousness clone's face was extremely grim. He could clearly feel that an invisible hand was quietly manipulating everything behind the scenes, and he had unknowingly fallen into it.

"Is it Destruction? With his rigid personality, that seems unlikely!"

Tang San's divine consciousness clone immediately thought of the God of Destruction, but after a little thought, he immediately denied his idea. The God of Destruction had always strictly followed the rules of the God Realm and would never easily interfere with the lower realm, let alone do something that went against the rules.

For a time, he couldn't figure out who the mastermind was and couldn't contact his main body. Tang San's divine consciousness clone helplessly muttered to himself, "It seems I can only wait and see for now. I want to see what the purpose of this Holy Grail War is and what secrets the so-called Sea God's divine position inheritance hides."

In the vast and boundless depths of the sea, a whale of unimaginable size was slowly swimming. It was thousands of meters long, and its body was covered in mysterious and eerie dark red patterns, emitting a dangerous and evil aura.

Suddenly, as if it had felt some kind of summoning, it broke through the layers of waves and charged into the sky like a cannonball. In an instant, with a violent rampage of thunder, the entire sea seemed to fall into a doomsday-like scene. Countless thick bolts of lightning danced like silver snakes, wantonly ravaging the world and turning the entire sea into a terrifying lightning hell. Countless sea creatures were instantly paralyzed by this sudden and powerful electric current and floated lifelessly on the surface of the sea.

The chilling predator's aura of the Deep Sea Demon Whale had already frightened the nearby sea soul beasts with a little intelligence into scattering and fleeing. At this moment, only those ordinary sea creatures without intelligence were unable to detect this fatal danger so close to them.

"God bestows me a crown. I'll use lightning as a bow and arrow to crush all things. The King of Conquest!" As bolts of lightning struck down like rain, the huge Deep Sea Demon Whale transformed into a human form in the air. Amidst the flashing light, a beautiful and enchanting woman appeared in mid-air. She had a head of dark red hair that cascaded down like a waterfall. Dark red lightning was wrapped around her body, as if these bolts of lightning were her loyal guards, happily jumping and roaring around her.

The seductive voice chanted the Herrscher's word. The Demon Empress felt the unprecedentedly powerful force within her body, and a sinister and satisfied smile slowly appeared on her lips. She clearly felt that she was now stronger than her husband, who was cruelly killed by Sea God Tang San ten thousand years ago, and that she was only one step away from the high and mighty position of a god.

Thinking of her once happy family being shattered in an instant, her husband being tragically killed, and she having to take her daughter and hide everywhere, constantly facing the desperate situation of being chased by sea soul beasts and living a life where they didn't know if they would see the next day, a blazing flame of hatred instantly ignited in the Demon Empress's eyes. This hatred was like an undying fire, burning in her heart for ten thousand years and never extinguishing.

It was precisely because of this unforgettable and deep-seated hatred that when the snake-like green-haired girl found her and promised to give her the power of revenge, the Demon Empress did not hesitate to join the so-called World Serpent organization. She was desperate to gain more powerful strength, only so that one day she could take revenge on Sea God Tang San and make him pay a painful price for what he had done.

"Mother!" Not far away, a relatively smaller Deep Sea Demon Whale, only about two hundred meters long, also followed and then transformed into a human form. It was a beautiful girl with long blue hair, like the purest spirit in the sea. The girl first glanced at the sea creatures all over the surface of the sea, and a hint of unbearable pain flashed in her eyes. These innocent lives had instantly lost their vitality under the rampage of her mother's powerful force.

Then, she looked at the Demon Empress with worry, her eyes full of concern and anxiety.

"Mother, please don't go. Why can't we just live quietly in the deep sea?"

Lan Fozi's face was full of worry, and she pleaded with the Demon Empress in a voice that held a hint of supplication. In her heart, she didn't want to participate in her mother's revenge plan, which was full of hatred and killing. She just wanted to live a peaceful and stable life with her mother in the quiet deep sea.

However, her mother had been crazily devouring sea soul beasts and cultivating desperately to become stronger. This wasn't all. The woman named Mobius gave her mother a mysterious gem. Since then, her mother's strength had advanced by leaps and bounds. She gained the power to control lightning, and her strength changed day by day, quickly surpassing her father's. Not only that, her mother even joined the so-called World Serpent organization, became the third throne of the World Serpent, known as the King of Conquest, and was一set on returning to the continent to take revenge on Sea God Tang San. Now, she had even taken action and was actively leaving the deep sea and heading toward the Douluo Continent.
