The reason for Tang San's fury was that Poseidon had simply gone too far.
According to the Sea God, Tang San was incapable of inheriting a dual godhood. Naturally, Tang San wanted to know which of the two—the Sea God or the God of Asura—was stronger. Yet, Poseidon refused to give him a straight answer. Now that he had reached Rank 99, he didn't dare to rashly inherit a single seat. One wrong choice could lead to eternal regret.
"Asura or the Sea God—which one is stronger!?" Tang San demanded again.
Poseidon merely waved a hand. "We'll talk about it later..."
"I swear to—! If I don't get the dual godhood, you can forget about ever knowing the coordinates of Douluo Star!!" Tang San roared.
After a long silence with no reply, Tang San spent the next several minutes cursing out eighteen generations of the Sea God's ancestors.
In a distant plane, Poseidon cut the communication link and looked up at the God of Asura. "Boss, what now? Tang San is obsessed with the dual godhood, but with his trash configuration, can he even handle it?"
Asura's eyes flashed with displeasure. "He wants dual godhood to balance us out? The fool clearly doesn't understand the Divine Realm. Even if he succeeds, he won't stay on Douluo Star for long before he's forced to ascend to this gloomy God Realm. He's playing a game he's too green for."
"The problem is he's hard to trick," Poseidon noted. "Even if we help him, he might not reveal the planet's location."
"Simple. Make him swear on his divine soul. As for the dual seat..." Asura frowned. "I'm currently using the Asura Sword; I can't give it to him to carry the godhood."
Asura looked at Poseidon, who immediately stepped back. "I'm using the Sea God Trident! You can't expect me to be a God-King without a Super Divine Tool!"
"Then there is only one way," Asura decided. "Tang Chen, the previous Child of Destiny and Tang San's grandfather. He once began the Asura trials but failed due to interference. They share the same bloodline and have both held the Asura inheritance. Tang San must devour Tang Chen and refine him into a Pseudo-Asura Sword. Only then can he support two godhoods."
"I see. Boss, I'll talk to him now," Poseidon said.
"Poseidon, I'll—!"
"Oh? Sounds like you don't want the dual godhood after all. My bad," Poseidon's voice rang out.
Tang San's heart skipped a beat. He instantly changed his tune. "Lord Sea God!! I was raised without parents, please forgive my lack of manners!! Please, tell me how to achieve the dual godhood!"
"Your attitude is passable, but barely. A dual godhood is unheard of in the Divine Realm," Poseidon said, stroking his chin.
Tang San's shoulders shook as he thought of the humiliation Bo Saixi had endured for him. He had to succeed. Only then could he reclaim his family's dignity from Ye Lan. He knelt and struck his head against the ground. "Please, enlighten me!!!"
"Since you've shown some sincerity... first, swear an oath on your past, present, and future divine soul."
Tang San hesitated, cursing these gods in his heart, but he had no choice. He swore the oath: as soon as he reached godhood, he would provide the coordinates.
"Go to the Slaughter City," Poseidon instructed. "The King of Slaughter. Devour him, absorb him, and refine a sword from his bloodline. Only then can you carry both the Sea God and Asura seats."
Tang San's pupils shrank. "You're joking? That bat can carry a godhood?"
"The King of Slaughter is actually Tang Chen, your grandfather," Poseidon revealed. "He was the previous Child of Destiny and was only corrupted by the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King. The method is yours. Don't keep me waiting."
Tang San was stunned. To become a Dual God, he had to devour his own grandfather? If Bo Saixi found out... He shook his head. He would keep it a secret. Besides, in his heart, Tang Chen wasn't worthy of Bo Saixi anyway. Only he, as a Dual God, would be. He tore through space and vanished.
The Infinite Mowing
Under the cheers of thousands, Ye Lan entered the Ninth Abyss Dungeon. Immediately, he felt his "Lord of Douluo" authority suppressed. His connection to the planet grew faint. If I enter the true Abyss, I'll be cut off completely, he realized. Fortunately, he no longer needed the planet's grass to maintain his 99x First-Class God vitality.
The Abyss consciousness targeted him instantly. Boundless malice surged forward as tides of monsters attacked. Ye Lan didn't hesitate. He activated Void Thought, wrapping his consciousness around the entire dungeon. Everything was now in his "mowing" range.
Outside the dungeon, the Titled Douluos were debating.
"How long will it take Xiao Lan?" Chen Xin asked. "A day?"
"A day? You underestimate him," Gu Rong laughed. "Half a day, tops!"
"But these are all Titled Douluo-level monsters now," Chen Xin countered.
Di Tian waved a hand. "I estimate half an hour."
As they spoke, the massive ten-thousand-meter black cube suddenly turned from pitch black to a blinding white light.
"What!? How many seconds has it been!?" Chen Xin gasped.
"Less than one!!!" Gu Rong was speechless. "In less than a second, he killed everything!!!"
The group was floored. Di Tian's eyes shone with excitement. "Ye Lan is millions of times more terrifying than the Dragon God I knew. Standing near him, you can't even draw soul power from the air—he devours it all."
Inside the dungeon, Ye Lan had used Void Thought paired with Blue Silver Sublimation. With vitality damage equivalent to a dozen First-Class Gods, he had detonated every monster into a mist of blood instantly.

Ye Lan didn't waste time. He spotted the white cube at the center of the cleared dungeon—the core. He touched it and was pulled into a twisting starry vortex. A moment later, he appeared in the true Abyssal Plane.
It was pitch black. The air smelled of rusted sewers and was filled with the sound of skittering insects. Ye Lan activated the "Light Transformation" of his Heavenly Soul Body. A sun-like radiance erupted from him, illuminating the horror below.
Beneath his feet, there was no soil. There were only layers upon layers of writhing Abyssal worms and unidentifiable insects, stretching as far as the eye could see. The sight made his scalp crawl.
