Chapter 28: Di Tian Breaks Through by Eating Shit, the Entire Continent is Stunned!
"I'll eat this shit!"
And so, amidst the horrified gazes of billions of beings across the Douluo Continent, Di Tian suddenly grabbed the golden, hard lump, closed his eyes, and, with a death-defying resolve, stuffed it into his mouth!
Click!
Chew it thoroughly!
"Vomit..."
The taste almost made him vomit as soon as he took a bite.
But the next second, an extremely violent mixture of earth and fire elemental energy exploded within his body like a volcanic eruption!
"Roar!!"
Di Tian roared to the sky, and his black and gold robe exploded instantly, revealing a faint dark gold light on the surface of his black dragon scales!
That's a sign of bloodline evolution!
With the help of this mouthful of excrement, his cultivation level broke through the bottleneck of 890,000 years and is moving towards 900,000 years or even 1 million years!
"It's a breakthrough! It's really a breakthrough!!"
Di Tian was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes, and there was still some indescribable residue left in his mouth, but he laughed like a child weighing ten thousand pounds:
"Thank you, Ancient Void Dragon! Thank you, Void Earth Armored Dragon!"
"This shit smells so good!"
...
Douluo Continent, Star Dou Great Forest.
"Clatter".
The silver dragon spear in Gu Yuena's hand fell to the ground.
She stared at Di Tian on the screen, who was spewing filth but dancing with excitement, and she was completely petrified.
"He ate it..."
"He really ate it."
"And he even broke through?"
Gu Yuena felt like her brain wasn't working properly.
What is the logic behind that higher-dimensional world?
Can bathwater make you a god? Can eating feces make you evolve?
"Then what does all my hundreds of thousands of years of arduous cultivation amount to?"
Gu Yuena looked down at her spotless skirt and suddenly felt a little bored.
Does becoming stronger require abandoning all dignity and fastidiousness?
The surrounding ferocious beasts vomited all over the ground.
Xiong Jun vomited and cried at the same time:
"Boss, you're too ruthless."
"To become stronger, you actually ate that..."
"I, Xiong Jun, have never submitted to anyone in my life, but today I do. You're truly ruthless!"
In contrast, the Red King tucked its tail between its legs.
"From now on, if anyone dares to say that Boss Di Tian is no good, I'll be the first to bite them to death!"
"A dragon that dares to eat shit, what in this world wouldn't it dare to do?"
...
Meanwhile, in Battle Through the Heavens, Jia Ma Empire...
Wutan City, the Xiao family.
The atmosphere inside the council chamber was so heavy it seemed as if water could drip from it.
Nalan Yanran sat at the head of the guest seats, her delicate face filled with arrogance.
Beside her, Yunlan Sect Deacon Ge Ye calmly held a teacup, his aura as a Seven-Star Great Dou Master subtly emanating from him, which made Xiao Clan Chief Xiao Zhan's face turn ashen, and his hand holding the teacup tremble slightly.
In a corner of the hall, the specially made iron cage that the Yunlan Sect had presented as a gift stood out conspicuously.
"Waaah..."
Dai Mubai was curled up in the cage, with a thick dog chain around his neck and oil stains left from gnawing on the bone at the corner of his mouth.
Through the gaps in the iron cage, he surveyed the situation in the hall with his cloudy, heterochromatic eyes.
Seeing Nalan Yanran's assertive attitude, Dai Mubai felt a smug sense of disdain.
"This kid named Xiao Yan really doesn't know how lucky he is."
"She is the young sect leader of the Yunlan Sect. She is beautiful, powerful, and has an extremely influential background."
"You're just a piece of trash with only the third stage of Dou Qi, and the fact that they personally came to annul the engagement and even gave you a Qi Gathering Powder as compensation is already an enormous favor!"
"If it were me, I would have groveled and agreed long ago, and even used the opportunity to climb the social ladder to the Yunlan Sect. What an ungrateful fool!"
At this moment, Dai Mubai's servile mentality was fully revealed.
After having his spine broken by Ge Ye, he had instinctively learned to fawn over the strong.
Finally, Nalan Yanran put down her teacup, and a clear, crisp sound rang out.
"Uncle Xiao, Yanran has come here today without asking for your help. It is an important matter."
"This marriage was arranged by my grandfather on a whim after he was drunk."
"Now that Yanran is the young sect leader of the Yunlan Sect, and my teacher has high hopes for me, I would like to ask Uncle Xiao to cancel this engagement!"
Sure enough, as soon as she said that, the jade teacup in Xiao Zhan's hand was instantly crushed into powder!
"Smack!"
Xiao Zhan slammed his hand on the table, his hair standing on end in fury, and said:
"Niece Nalan, your act of coming to our door to annul the engagement today, what has it done to the Xiao family's reputation?!"
"Where is my son Xiao Yan's dignity?!"
"Face?"
Before Nalan Yanran could speak, Ge Ye suddenly sneered and put down his teacup.
Buzz!
A powerful aura belonging to a Seven-Star Great Dou Master instantly swept across the entire hall, directly pressing Xiao Zhan, who only had the strength of a five-star Great Dou Master, back into his chair!
"Clan Chief Xiao, it's better to speak out about some things."
Ge Ye pointed to the iron cage in the corner, his tone full of contempt:
"Look at the beast in that cage."
"It once claimed to be a prince of the Star Luo Empire, and was known as the Evil-Eyed White Tiger. It must have been quite a figure in that world, right?"
"But if it dares to bare its teeth in front of my Yunlan Sect, this is its fate: its cultivation will be crippled, and it will be reduced to a watchdog!"
"Even a prince of a nation has to act like a dog. Does your Xiao family think you are more noble than an empire?"
"The Qi Gathering Powder is already an act of great mercy from the sect leader. One must be pragmatic!"
"Woof! Woof woof!"
Seemingly to cooperate with Ge Ye's words and to please this powerful figure who held his life and death in his hands, Dai Mubai in the cage actually endured the humiliation, raised his head and barked twice, and even wagged his tail!
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhan's face turned a deep purplish-red, and he trembled with rage.
Xiao Yan stared intently at Dai Mubai, who was groveling and begging for mercy, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.
...
Douluo Continent, Shrek Academy.
"Puff!"
Ma Hongjun and Oscar both spat out their drinks at the same time, looking like they'd seen a ghost.
"He did bark, Boss Dai really did bark..."
Ma Hongjun covered his face, feeling utterly ashamed.
"He was called a beast by someone pointing a finger at him, and he actually went along with it?"
"Is this still the same Young Master Dai who took us to brothels to listen to music and started fighting at the drop of a hat?"
In the corner, Zhu Zhuqing, who had just turned to leave, paused slightly after hearing the two barks from behind.
She didn't turn around; her tightly clenched fist slowly loosened.
"A piece of mud can never be plastered on a wall."
...
The scene returns to the Xiao family's main hall.
Just when everyone thought the Xiao family was about to bow down to power.
The young man, Xiao Yan, who had been silent and bowing his head, slowly stood up.
He glanced at Dai Mubai, who was wagging his tail and begging for mercy in the cage, and a cold, extremely mocking smile curled at the corner of his mouth:
"Did you see that?"
"This is what happens when you have no bones."
"I'd be willing to be a dog to survive, but I, Xiao Yan, don't want to be a dog!"
After speaking, Xiao Yan also turned around abruptly, looking directly at the aloof Nalan Yanran:
"Nalan Yanran, you don't need to use the Yunlan Sect to intimidate me!"
"Today, it's not you, Nalan Yanran, who's announcing the annulment of the engagement; it's me, Xiao Yan, who's divorcing you!!"
After saying that, Xiao Yan quickly walked to the table and began to write furiously!
Snap!
Soon, a blood-written letter with the character "休" (xiū, meaning "divorce") was slammed onto the table!
"Nalan Yanran, you'll remember this!"
"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, never underestimate a young man's potential!"
"Three years from now, I will personally go to the Yunlan Sect!"
"I'll show you just how foolish your decision was!"
These words shocked not only those present but the entire Douluo Continent.
...
Meanwhile, in the Douluo Continent.
Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Yu Tianheng, Dugu Yan, and the others all stood up, staring in disbelief at the boy they had previously regarded as a good-for-nothing.
"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river..."
Never underestimate a young person's potential!
Even through the screen, they could feel the overwhelming passion emanating from the screen.
"Good! Well said!!"
Tang San stared intently at Xiao Yan on the light screen, his eyes revealing an unprecedented sense of recognition.
"That's what a real man should be like!"
"Never bow down to power, and dare to fight back against humiliation!"
"In comparison..."
Tang San glanced at Dai Mubai, who was still in a daze in the cage, his disdain undisguised:
"Dai Mubai, you have a starting point a hundred times better than him, and a nobler status."
"But at that moment you chose to wag your tail and beg for mercy, while that young man with only the third stage of Dou Qi chose to divorce his wife!"
"This is the difference, this is the difference between a human and a dog!!"
At this moment, Xiao Yan's slender yet upright figure appeared taller than any other Title Douluo in the eyes of everyone on Douluo Continent!
Star Dou Great Forest, Lake of Life.
As Gu Yuena watched this scene, a faint glimmer of light appeared in her originally desperate eyes.
"Never underestimate a young man's potential..."
"That world isn't all about bullies who take advantage of their power."
"At least this boy showed me that even in the lowest point, one can still have dignity."
"If only the soul beast race could have such backbone."
Gu Yuena glanced at the ferocious beasts, including Xiong Jun, who were still cowering beside her, sighed, and said nothing more.
...
On the other side, in the Xiao family hall.
Nalan Yanran looked at the letter of divorce, her delicate body trembling, her face extremely pale.
She, the young sect leader of the Yunlan Sect, was actually divorced by a good-for-nothing?
"Good! Well said, 'Never underestimate a young man's potential!'"
Nalan Yanran gritted her teeth and snorted coldly:
"Xiao Yan, I'm waiting for you!"
"Three years from now, at Yunlan Sect, I hope you can still be as tough as you are today!"
After saying that, she turned and left, not wanting to stay a moment longer.
Elder Ge Ye gave Xiao Yan a cold look, then glanced at Dai Mubai in the cage, and sneered:
"A piece of trash and a mad dog, they're a perfect match."
"This lecherous tiger is yours to keep. Take good care of it!"
After saying that, Ge Ye led the Yunlan Sect members away.
Inside the hall, only the Xiao family members and Dai Mubai, who was still locked in the cage, remained.
Xiao Yan slowly walked to the cage and looked down at Dai Mubai.
At this moment, Dai Mubai looked at the boy in front of him who had just been looked down upon, and a fear he had never felt before arose in his heart.
Because Xiao Yan's eyes were too terrifying.
"Your name is Dai Mubai?"
Xiao Yan spoke calmly.
Dai Mubai nodded subconsciously, even wanting to wag his tail habitually, but then realized what he was doing and his face turned red.
"Prince of Star Luo, Evil-Eyed White Tiger".
Xiao Yan shook his head, casually tossed the letter of divorce into the cage, and covered Dai Mubai's face with it.
"Remember this: in this world, if you treat yourself like a dog, you'll always just be a dog."
"Even if you are a prince, it's the same."
After saying that, Xiao Yan turned and left, leaving behind only a dashing figure.
Dai Mubai clutched the letter of divorce, staring at the bright red character for "divorce" on it, feeling a burning pain on his face.
He, Dai Mubai, the prince of Star Luo, was completely defeated by this good-for-nothing boy.
...
Above the sky, the images shifted once more.
Seemingly to make the blow even more profound, the Sky Veil did not stop its inflicting psychological damage.
The screen split in two.
On the left is Beast God Di Tian, who is shoveling poop in the latrine with a "it smells so good" expression on his face. He even fights with the sub-dragon next to him for a piece of fresh Void Earth Armored Dragon poop!
On the right is Bo Saixi, the High Priest of the Sea God, who is in the Tagor Desert and being used as a human water tap by Queen Medusa. While shedding tears, she greedily absorbs the energy of the medicinal residue in the bathwater!
[Ding! Explorer intelligence updated!]
[Beast God Di Tian: Adapting well. Although his job is shoveling manure, thanks to his tenacious appetite and tireless efforts, he has successfully broken through the 890,000-year bottleneck and even comprehended a trace of earth-elemental laws from dragon dung. Evaluation: A person of the path of survival, with a limitless future.]
[High Priest Bo Saixi: Adapting well. Despite being a bathing tool, she successfully absorbed the essence of the Queen's bathwater through her spirit of forbearance, increasing her soul power purity by 30%. Comment: As long as you can set aside your pride, even bathwater is divine liquid.]
These two comments plunged the Douluo Continent into silence once again.
The City of Slaughter.
Tang Chen, who had just regained consciousness for a moment, saw Bo Saixi's evaluation and spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes rolled back and he fainted from anger.
"Bathwater is also a divine elixir."
"Being able to let go of dignity."
This is tantamount to peeling off Poseidon Island's face, throwing it into a cesspool, and then stomping on it!
While the entire continent was immersed in despair and self-doubt.
The cold voice from the sky rang out once again!
[Ding! Six explorers from the Douluo Continent have been detected!]
The first phase of adaptation has ended!
The second phase of opportunity is about to begin!
[Special Announcement: The next chosen one will descend directly upon the Central Plains, the most central, mysterious, and dangerous region of Battle Through the Heavens!]
[Furthermore, they will encounter the true pinnacle of power in this plane: the Soul Hall!]
[Random selection begins...]
Soon, a jet-black pillar of light, exuding an aura more terrifying than ever before, slowly condensed in the sky above the Douluo Continent.
This time, its target was actually the Clear Sky Sect!
On Clear Sky Peak, Tang Xiao and the five elders turned pale as they looked at the black pillar of light.
"Soul... Soul Hall?"
"Just from the name, it doesn't sound like a good place!"
"Could it be our turn?!"
And so, to everyone's horror, the black beam of light slammed squarely into the back mountain of the Clear Sky Sect.
And there, was the sect master of Clear Sky Sect, who was in seclusion cultivating the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique, preparing to emerge from the mountains and restore the prestige of Clear Sky Sect!
