Chapter 164 - Chapter 164: Tang San’s Divine Position Trap

The golden meteor, upon falling, transformed into a golden orb of light resembling a small sun.

This orb quietly floated in midair, right in front of Wang Chen.

Wang Chen looked at the golden orb that had descended from the sky and couldn't help but frown.

There's a saying: when something unusual happens, there must be a demon behind it.

For a moment, Wang Chen, who had been about to take action, decided to pause and first see what this golden orb was.

Snow Empress and the Sea Princess were also stunned by the golden orb that fell from the heavens, both examining it to determine what it was and whether it posed any danger.

Just as the three fixed their gazes on the golden orb.

The next moment, a phantom male figure emerged from within the golden orb.

Though this figure was illusory, the instant he appeared, the originally turbulent sea inexplicably calmed.

Not a single ripple remained; even the normal ocean waves vanished. It was as if the entire sea submitted to this phantom, yielding to him, ready to listen to his words.

The male phantom had long, ocean-blue hair, a tall and majestic build, broad shoulders, and a face as handsome as a woman's. He wore a blue robe and held a majestic trident.

His eyes seemed vacant yet encompassed all things; occasionally, a flash of purple made them appear even more extraordinary.

Though merely a phantom, he exuded an aura far surpassing that of a Limit Douluo—one glance was enough to tell he was no ordinary being.

Wang Chen recognised the phantom and the iconic Sea God Trident in his hand, raising an eyebrow. He immediately identified this as the renowned God King Tang San.

Regarding Tang San, Wang Chen still remembered the incident where Sea God Island's High Priest Song Jie and Mu En had joined forces to hunt him down.

Wang Chen held twelve points of vigilance toward Tang San—this was a God King-level powerhouse, far beyond what the current him could contend with.

Especially since Tang San clearly harboured ill intent toward him, making Wang Chen even more cautious.

The Sea Princess, witnessing the entire sea domain calm, trembled with excitement at the sight of Tang San's phantom. Such transcendent power—besides Lord Sea God, who else could it be?

Snow Empress looked at Tang San's phantom with a grave expression. Though a soul beast, she knew quite a bit about Tang San, who had become a god ten thousand years ago.

Various biographies on the continent mentioned Sea God Tang San, so she had a faint guess about the identity of this phantom.

Especially recalling her disrespectful words toward Tang San during her battle with the Sea God Island High Priest, which made her somewhat worried.

Though Snow Empress was the ruler of the Extreme North, before a deity, she was still too insignificant.

At this moment, Tang San's true body in the God Realm projected his consciousness into the divine power phantom. As consciousness entered, the originally vacant eyes of the phantom became lively.

The phantom's lively eyes shifted, scanning the surroundings before locking directly onto Wang Chen.

As for the Sea Princess and Snow Empress, he had no interest whatsoever—mere soul beasts, ants destined never to become gods.

They weren't worth his attention. The only person he truly cared about was Wang Chen.

Tang San could sense that the God King of Destruction was currently casting his gaze from the God Realm, watching his every move.

Tang San thought to himself, "Destruction, guiding the chosen one through the divine power phantom during the inheritance of a divine position does not violate the rules of the God Realm.

Heh heh heh, trying to catch me in a mistake—you're still ten thousand miles short."

The phantom of Tang San spoke, "I am Sea God Tang San!!"

Upon hearing this, the Sea Princess nearly fainted from excitement. "It's Lord Sea God—it really is Lord Sea God!!"

Snow Empress's expression also changed drastically. She hadn't expected it to truly be Sea God Tang San. For a moment, worry surged as she thought, "Before, Wang Chen and I killed the Sea God Island High Priest. He won't take action against us, will he?"

Wang Chen, however, remained calm, watching Tang San and secretly guessing what he was up to.

Tang San continued, "While in the God Realm, I discovered a rising new star on Douluo Star.

That new star is you, Wang Chen. Your talent is unprecedented, astonishing even to me. Even in my youth, I was far inferior to you.

In the future, the entire Douluo Star will inevitably change because of you.

Thus, I sent my priest Song Jie to test you. Congratulations—you have passed my test.

I have decided to choose you as the inheritor of the Sea God!

Douluo Star will not be your endpoint. Your future lies in the God Realm."

With just a few words, Tang San twisted the previous incident of sending the Sea God Island High Priest to kill Wang Chen into a test.

If an ordinary person heard this, they would 100% be fooled by this Sea God, dizzy with excitement, believing they were about to ascend to the God Realm, become a god, and achieve immortality.

Snow Empress, hearing Tang San's words, dispelled her previous worries. Her originally cold face couldn't help but show excitement.

She had clearly been taken in by Tang San's words. In Snow Empress's view, a lofty deity who could slap her and Wang Chen to death with one palm—why would he need to deceive them?

Snow Empress thought excitedly, "Sea God divine position—doesn't this mean Wang Chen is going to become a god? Then Ice'er and I can ascend to the God Realm with him. Wonderful!"

For a moment, Snow Empress was overwhelmed with excitement. Though Wang Chen's talent was unmatched before, without a divine position, she couldn't be certain he could ascend to the God Realm.

Now, with the divine position inheritance, the stone in Snow Empress's heart settled. Victory seemed in sight—immortality within reach.

The Sea Princess, hearing that Lord Sea God Tang San intended to pass the divine position to Wang Chen, was dazed by the news.

The scales on her seductive golden fishtail stood on end, her chest heaved, her eyes glazed as she looked at Wang Chen, her little heart pounding.

At this moment, the Sea Princess had only one thought: Was it too late to take back her refusal?

She wanted to retract her previous rejection. She wanted to be Lord Wang Chen's wisdom soul ring, his loyal mermaid maid. She wanted to follow Lord Wang Chen and ascend to the God Realm!

Tang San continued, "The God Realm oversees numerous mortal worlds. Within the God Realm,

There are eighteen first-level gods, two hundred second-level gods, two thousand third-level gods, and nearly ten thousand ordinary god officers and heavenly god hunters.

The Sea God position is a first-level divine position, an absolute high-level position in the God Realm with many privileges. It allows one to bring direct relatives—wife, children—to ascend to the God Realm together.

As the inheritor of the Sea God, as long as you pass my Sea God divine examination and fuse with the Sea God divine position, you will become the new Sea God.

Are you willing to accept the test of the Sea God's divine examination?"

Tang San's words were extremely tempting. The Sea God was a first-level god, a high-level position in the God Realm, and especially the ability to bring direct relatives to ascend—it was temptation maxed out.

Snow Empress and the Sea Princess, beside him, stared at Wang Chen with shining eyes, wishing they could answer for him.

Even the Ice Empress and Tianmeng Ice Silkworm in Wang Chen's sea of spirit jumped excitedly within it.

Shouting, "Become a god! Become a god! Become a god! Agree! Agree! Agree!!"

Just as everyone anticipated Wang Chen's acceptance, his intuition sensed dense malice swirling around him, surging toward him, wanting to swallow him whole.

Wang Chen thought to himself, "Tang San really went all out, using the Sea God divine position as bait to lure me in.

This dog thief, Tang San, didn't say he'd give me the divine position directly, but that I must first pass the divine examination before fusing with it.

The divine examination is ninety per cent likely to be rigged—either fraught with danger or impossible to complete. The divine position is fundamentally unattainable.

Moreover, with my talent and the powerful auxiliary functions of the black book strengthening my comprehension,

do I need Tang San's divine position? I can fully comprehend laws and, like the first-generation Sea God, create my own divine position and still become a god!"

Just as Wang Chen was about to refuse Tang San, a voice rang in his mind: "I am the God King of Destruction… agree to Tang San."
