Boom!
The Dragon Emperor Forbidden Law collided with the authority and momentum of the Sun God. The ripples it stirred up made the people far away on the Douluo Continent feel the ground shaking and mountains swaying.
Seeing this, Tang San merely glanced at Rong Nianbing. The latter understood immediately, joining forces with the seven Elemental Gods to lay down an array to consolidate the stability of the space battlefield.
Other deities forced to take Tang San's side also took action, doing their best to resist the massive fluctuations caused by the collision of the two God Kings' ultimate skills.
It was impossible for Tang San and the rest of the Tang family to step in and do this, because they had to maintain their perfect condition to cope with all the subsequent battles.
They didn't just want victory; they wanted a flawless victory, and they had to control the situation well so that no key figures belonging to this timeline within the opponent's camp suffered casualties.
"Yuhao, Wulin's accumulation is shallow after all. Provide backup from the sidelines."
Tang San sent a divine thought to Dai Yuhao while observing the deadlocked collision in the arena.
Dai Yuhao was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Alright, Dad."
He had done similar things back in his day. At that tournament in Ming City, he had used a simulation soul skill to cheat, allowing the Tang Sect and Shrek to enter the finals together.
As for the character of Tang San and Dai Yuhao, Huo Yuhao's side had long experienced it deeply. Although he couldn't hear the divine sense transmission on Dai Yuhao's side, with this God King realm divine sense clone he left behind, it was enough to glimpse the inconspicuous transmission fluctuations between the two.
But he said nothing, merely changing his posture casually.
Ning Tian, Wu Feng, Nanmen Yun'er, Cui Yajie, and Ju Zi, who were the first to follow him, noticed this scene. They prepared to strike secretly almost at the first moment. This was the tacit understanding between them.
On the other side, Tang Wutong and Dai Yuhao similarly shared a marital understanding. She stepped forward and seemingly naturally linked her arm with his—Haodong Power.
Just as undercurrents surged outside the arena, the battle situation inside gradually became clearer.
"Oooooh—" Xie Huanyue's arm expanded another circle. The destruction intent emanating from Tang Wulin transformed into countless purple-black lightning bolts wrapping around him, and his strength suddenly increased by a few degrees.
This kid is completely immune to lightning?
Tang Wulin couldn't help but widen his eyes. Soon, as Xie Huanyue exerted force, he found that the two Super Divine Tools in his hands seemed to also begin to be affected by the other party's authority, starting to soften and become no longer hard.
Even his indomitable momentum was completely suppressed by Xie Huanyue.
"This, this..."
Before Tang Wulin could react, his Dragon Emperor Forbidden Law was pushed back by Xie Huanyue's massive fist.
"Yuhao!" Tang San's urgent call exploded in Dai Yuhao's mind.
Dai Yuhao had also been paying attention to the situation in the arena. Just as Tang Wulin was about to be defeated by Xie Huanyue, Spiritual Detection Sharing had already been executed under the cover of the simulation divine skill. Cast simultaneously was the Asura Three-Eyed God-Sealing Curse!
This was a self-created divine skill where he perfectly combined the power of destiny from the Eye of Destiny with his soul power and spiritual power. It had once achieved the feat of briefly freezing the Sea Princess with only a Titled Douluo's cultivation base.
"Move!"
Both sides acted almost simultaneously. Ning Tian's light of amplification instantly broke through the blockade and rushed into the arena, pouring onto Xie Huanyue. Wu Feng and Nanmen Yun'er immediately completed Divine Soul Synchro and charged towards the battlefield.
"Brother-in-law?" Tang Wulin felt Dai Yuhao's spiritual sharing, and his expression couldn't help but change.
"Don't just stand there dazed, retreat!" Dai Yuhao immediately used his divine sense to map out an evasion route for him.
On the other side, the amplified Xie Huanyue doubled in strength, instantly breaking through Tang Wulin's final defense line—
"Roar—" The Meteor Red Dragon whistled over, letting out a deafening dragon roar.
Dai Yuhao also completed his Divine Soul Fusion with Tang Wutong at this moment. Withering Amidst Brilliance, the Golden Road, was ready to strike.
"Everyone stop!"
Seeing the situation about to spiral out of control, Tang San's face turned gloomy. He immediately infused his divine thought into his voice and shouted at everyone opposite him.
At this time, under Dai Yuhao's guidance, Tang Wulin narrowly avoided the lethal strike from Xie Huanyue, as well as the death collision of the Meteor Red Dragon.
"Boom..."
Xie Huanyue's massive fist missed and landed on the mental power floor, letting out a deafening roar.
Tang San raised his hand with some annoyance, summoning back the Golden Trident. He tapped it on the ground, neutralizing the aftershocks brought by Xie Huanyue's lethal strike.
"Dad!" Tang Wulin's expression was somewhat ugly. He found it somewhat unacceptable to have such a result. The Golden Dragon King's blood and qi had made his legend, and also forged the pride in his heart.
He would rather suffer severe injuries and be defeated in this fair and square battle than have his own family intervene and interfere with this duel.
"Wulin, you lost." Tang San's tone was stiff. He naturally saw the dissatisfaction in his son's heart. Even so, he didn't have the slightest psychological burden regarding his arrangements.
"Yes..." Tang Wulin gritted his teeth and had to obey his father's command to return to the side of the God of Life, Gu Yuena. The latter hurriedly checked his injuries with a worried face.
"Tang San, in my view, your son's character is much more upright than yours," Huo Yuhao mocked mercilessly.
"Defeat all our people first before you speak," Tang San merely replied coldly.
Xie Huanyue, whose physical strength was completely exhausted, had already been brought back by his partners. Wei Na, Xu Jiujiu, Xue Zili, Ning Tian, and Ye Linlin were busily pouring soul power into him to help him recover quickly.
"How's Fatty's condition?" Huo Yuhao asked hurriedly.
"He's fine, just a little overdrawn," Ning Tian answered.
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Huo Yuhao's face, and he gave a thumbs-up to this brother who had accompanied him all the way.
That was the Destruction God King. Even before he left Douluo, fighting alone he was not a match for any God King.
Regarding having such a brother, his heart was filled with nothing but pride.
If it was said that Tang Wulin lost because he hadn't adapted to the power of the Destruction Liquid, then on Xie Huanyue's side, it was also his first time fighting in a complete Sun God state.
From this, it could be seen just how powerful the former guardian deity of the Eden Kingdom, Apollo, really was.
With that incomparably free and exaggerated authority, if any God King were to face it, they probably wouldn't find it easy to deal with, right?
"Next one, Huo Yuhao." Tang San looked expressionlessly at Huo Yuhao's group. "I hope that from here on out, both sides can stop before going too far."
Huo Yuhao nodded with a smile. He certainly understood Tang San's concerns. Whether someone from his own side or the other side died, it would cause tremendous changes to the main space-time.
What Tang San wanted was the submission of all of them, to return everything to the way it was in the original timeline. Those enemies killed by Huo Yuhao and his partners could also be resurrected one by one by Oscar and Ning Rongrong, thanks to Tang San.
Huo Yuhao couldn't help but shift his gaze to Asura God Xiao Wu and Emotion God King Dai Yuhao. Logically speaking, Tang San would step in at the end to settle everything, letting the other Tang family members weaken the opponents first.
Seemingly seeing through Huo Yuhao's thoughts, Tang San gave a gentle smile, tapped his toes lightly in the void, and landed in the center of the battlefield.
"I'll take this round."
Seeing this scene, everyone present was stunned. Even Dai Yuhao, who was eager to try, was left speechless for a moment.
No one expected that Tang San would not make a grand finale appearance, but instead jump out in the second round.
Huo Yuhao stared at Tang San coldly. He suddenly realized one thing: the current Tang San was not the Supreme God King Tang San of the Ultimate Douluo era, but the Sea God Tang San who had returned after rebirth.
In terms of frontal combat power, he could not match Asura God Xiao Wu or Destruction God King Tang Wulin. In terms of divine sense, he could not match Emotion God King Dai Yuhao and Life God King Gu Yuena. In terms of overall strength, he was even further behind Dragon God Tang Xuanyu, who was far away in another star system.
However, what he was most adept at was manipulating people's hearts and controlling the battlefield! After all, he had been a conspirator and tactician for so many years.
Facing Tang San was more headache-inducing than facing the likes of Dai Yuhao and Tang Wulin.
Huo Yuhao could despise Tang San's character, mock Tang San's feudal concepts, and ridicule his combat power, but the only thing he could not underestimate was his tactical layout and manipulation of people's hearts.
For a person to rise in a foreign world where strength is respected, they definitely have extraordinary abilities; one cannot blindly belittle them due to their conduct and beliefs.
Now, Huo Yuhao's own main body and Dragon God Gu Yuena had not yet returned. Among the many partners present, few had truly ascended to the Divine Realm to comprehend the authority of their god positions. Even if they went up one by one in a war of attrition to weaken Tang San, it would likely be like drinking poison to quench thirst.
The gap between them was too vast. The opposing side consisted entirely of genuine God Kings, and it was certainly not the powerful lineup this timeline should have had. If he hadn't lured Dragon God Tang Xuanyu away, the other side would probably have been able to sweep the field relying on Tang Xuanyu alone.
The foresight he possessed appeared so pale and powerless in the face of such a lineup.
Huo Yuhao took a deep breath, then reached out and rubbed Huo Yunhan's small head. "Gu Han, if we lose this battle, will you be afraid?"
Unexpectedly, Huo Yunhan's eyes were incredibly firm. He stubbornly raised his head to look at his father: "Dad, we won't lose!"
"Good..." Huo Yuhao smiled gratifiedly.
"Yuhao, let me take this round?" Zhongli Yu stopped Cui Yajie, her beautiful eyes filled with resolution.
Among the partners present, other than the exhausted Sun God Xie Huanyue, she, who had inherited the Asura God position, was the most capable fighter.
Although Cui Yajie and Zhang Lexuan had inherited the positions of the God Kings of Kindness and Evil, their total strength was likely not even as good as the former Lie Yan and Ji Dong.
However, Huo Yuhao shook his head.
He patted Huo Yunhan's shoulder and smiled: "Gu Han, it's your turn next."
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was shocked—
Not only Huo Yuhao's partners, but even the deities on Tang San's side were somewhat puzzled.
Among them, the reactions of those who were once soul masters from the Douluo Continent and became gods were the most obvious. The little fellow beside Huo Yuhao was just a mere five-ring Soul King!
"Tang San, for this round, I'm letting three children use a fusion skill to take the field. Do you dare to accept the challenge?"
As Huo Yuhao spoke, he also pulled Huo Siting and Maron to his side.
"No!"
"Yuhao, you're crazy!" Ju Zi and Cui Yajie hurriedly blocked the three children. Huo Yuhao letting the three little guys come up to watch the battle was already the limit they could accept, yet Huo Yuhao was actually demanding such young children to take the field and fight Tang San?
"Demon King Huo Yuhao, if you've lost your mind, I won't stop you." Tang San's expression changed slightly, his eyes full of disdain.
What was the meaning of letting a few children fight? Betting that he wouldn't deal a killing blow? Huo Yuhao was supposed to be his daughter's husband. These children, at a glance, were clearly bastards Huo Yuhao had with other women. If they really fought, he would not hold back.
Regarding the child Dai Yuhao had with Ju Zi in the past, it was on account of Dai Mubai's face that he didn't deal a killing blow. Moreover, that child seemed to have done well, completely turning the Douluo Continent into the world of the Dai family.
Dai Yuhao stared fixedly at Huo Yunhan. It was only at this moment that he truly confirmed the other party's identity.
Yunhan, he is Xu Yunhan... No, he should be Huo Yunhan, Dai Yunhan! He is Dai Yuhao's son that he could never acknowledge!
At this thought, Dai Yuhao closed his eyes in some pain.
Ju Zi, oh Ju Zi... our child... did he eventually find out who his biological father was?
Huo Yuhao didn't mind his wives' obstruction, but looked at Huo Yunhan: "Gu Han, remember the story of Peerless Tang Sect I told you? They are the enemies who stole your mother's happiness. They lied to your mother, saying your father didn't love her. They used your life as a threat, making it so you could never acknowledge your biological father for all eternity."
"They were the ones who left you sitting lonely on the imperial throne, forcing the country you ruled to become their courtyard..."
"Shut up!"
A roar of pain interrupted what Huo Yuhao was about to continue saying.
Dai Yuhao was trembling all over, panting like an ox, looking at Huo Yuhao with red eyes: "You shut up! The one I love is Wutong. Yunhan is just a child born to that woman without my consent, a child belonging to her alone!"
"Oh~ I know the one you love is Tang Wutong."
Huo Yuhao smiled, smiling with such contempt: "Then tell me, before returning to Shrek to participate in the Sea God's Fate blind date event, who was the girl that actually existed in your heart? Don't tell me it was that image conjured by the Martial Soul Fusion Skill."
"You..." Dai Yuhao was instantly rendered speechless.
"Right after you and Wang Dong'er collapsed after saving Ju Zi, your lover told your 'white moonlight' that you didn't like her." Huo Yuhao chuckled, glancing at Tang Wutong.
"And then, Tang San discovered that Ju Zi's figure was in your heart. Without a word, he had those two gatekeeping beast kings arrange that bed for you, which caused the death of your teacher."
"In this way, he could officially begin to interfere with your will and some of your actions, until you were thoroughly at his disposal."
"Otherwise, why did Wang Dong'er reveal her true face right after Elder Yi passed away? To completely capture your heart."
"Huo Yuhao, you are spitting blood and slandering us!" Tang Wutong trembled with rage, unable to hold back from cursing out loud any longer.
Huo Yuhao ignored her completely, continuing to speak on his own.
"Fate is a funny thing. It eventually made you and Ju Zi cross paths again. Dai Hao indirectly caused the death of your mother, and also indirectly caused the death of Ju Zi's father. You two had common enemies and should have been the best match. It's just a pity that Tang San ruined the true love that should have belonged to you."
"Tang San personally fastened a dog chain named Tang Wutong onto you, making you sit in the Great Divine Realm to guard the Tang family's supreme power over the Divine Realm. He wanted to slack off, but was worried about losing his status, so he spared no effort in cultivating you."
"Back when your Tang family was dealing with the God of Destruction, weren't you, Dai Yuhao, the biggest variable in the entire situation after Tang San was trapped?"
"Am I right? Tang family loyal dog?"
