With Tang San's personal assistance, Xiao Wu's soul power had risen to level seventy-nine, and her primordial spirit had fully condensed. Her speed, strength, defense, and endurance had all greatly improved.

According to her own estimation, her strength was now almost on par with Tang San's. However, when the two engaged in a real duel, Tang San still left her utterly defeated, shouting "Stop!"

Guang Ling, Ning Rongrong, Huo Wu, and others also benefited from the "cosmic collision" between Tang San and Xiao Wu. Their physical fitness improved, their soul power quality enhanced, and their mental power became more refined.

Especially Ning Rongrong, as a support-type spirit master. Now, even without any weapons, she could stand her ground against a strong soul fighter at the Soul Douluo level.

Of course, for her, physical combat wasn't necessary. Her focus remained on the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda's support abilities...

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

During these three days, Xiao Wu, Guang Ling, Ning Rongrong, and Huo Wu gave Tang San their best efforts to ensure he would face his enemies in peak condition.

The supple strength of the Soft Boned Rabbit, the relentless spirit of the Pursuing Sun Bow, the exquisite finesse of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, and the blazing passion of the Sun Goddess—he experienced it all!

If an ordinary person endured these three days, they would have been utterly drained, barely able to muster seventy percent of their strength in battle, if that.

But for Tang San, with his extraordinary recovery ability, these three days only sharpened his mind to the pinnacle of his current state...

Fifty miles outside Xiaohai City.

Amid the black rocky region with crashing waves, Xu Huang had been waiting since early morning. But as the sun set and dusk approached, there was still no sign of Tang San. His expression grew darker by the minute. "Could Tang San be playing me for a fool?"

Luo Qiu, who was hidden nearby on a wave-worn rock, yawned out of boredom and mused, "Maybe it really is a prank. After all, Tang San isn't some divine emissary and doesn't need to uphold perfect virtues."

"Or could it be—"

A sudden thought struck her. Perhaps Tang San was deliberately trying to provoke Xu Huang. If he lost his composure and did something unknightly, the Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation would abandon him, and Tang San wouldn't even have to go through the trouble of severing their connection.

After all, Xu Huang only had the right to use it, not own it.

Exploiting the rules of the Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation would be far easier than spending time deciphering them.

Luo Qiu knew very well that Xu Huang was no true knight...

But who in this world is truly selfless?

Long Haochen?

Even he had his selfish moments. He allowed an Elemental Spirit to occupy the body of the previous Moonlight Queen to resurrect her... Although the previous Moonlight Queen deceived him, she never intended to harm him and even truly wanted to marry him.

Killing her might have been one thing, but to desecrate her corpse and allow others to use it? Such grotesque desires—how could they be considered noble?

In this world, there are so many things beyond one's control. Rarely does one act with complete sincerity. Tang San might be one of the few exceptions. At least when he speaks, he means what he says, never playing games with her.

The Villain and the Gentleman.

Deceit and Integrity.

It seems the line between them isn't so clear...

"Kept you waiting, didn't I?"

Tang San walked leisurely through the air, lightly landing on a towering rock with a faint smile on his lips. "Impatient, aren't you? Should I call you by your title, Emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire? Or perhaps, as a fellow Earthling—or someone from Blue Planet?"

Xu Huang responded with a cold laugh, releasing his martial soul. A golden circular shield and a silver crescent blade appeared before him.

Though they seemed like two distinct weapons, they were actually part of the same martial soul, known as the Sun and Moon Wheel, a mutated version of the Sun and Moon martial souls of the Sun and Moon Empire.

Around him hovered eight spirit rings, their colors: yellow, yellow, purple, black, black, black, black, black.

"Possessing the Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation, and yet not a single 100,000-year spirit ring," Tang San chuckled, a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes, something Xu Huang noticed immediately.

This made Xu Huang clench his fists tighter. "The color of a spirit ring doesn't define strength. True power lies in how one wields it."

"True enough," Tang San acknowledged, though curiosity soon crept into his tone. "So, you focused on cultivating this tool martial soul first? From what I can sense, it seems you have two martial souls."

"Of course," Xu Huang scoffed. "You're right. Like you, I'm a twin martial soul wielder. My second martial soul is the Violet Destruction Sky Dragon." He saw no need to hide it, as this duel was one of life and death.

Humiliating the emissary of the Creator God on Earth...

Sowing discord between him and Luo Qiu...

No matter the offense, Tang San no longer had the right to live!

More importantly, Tang San carried an unsettling aura. The moment Xu Huang's Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation sensed Tang San's presence, it trembled. The King of Isthon, the Holy Dragon, and the Eternal Angel—all three spirits felt the aura of destruction emanating from Tang San, confirming the presence of the God of Divine Punishment within him.

Though Xu Huang was unwilling to lose the Divine Throne, Austin Griffin's presence within Tang San meant the three weapon spirits wouldn't stand idly by.

There was no room for mercy...

In truth, Xu Huang had long wished to kill this reincarnated traveler who refused to submit to him.

"By the way, in the Douluo Continent, if someone possesses both a tool martial soul and a beast martial soul, they typically focus on cultivating the beast martial soul first. After all, in terms of pure attack power, a tool martial soul can't compare to a beast martial soul of equal quality."

Tang San elaborated on martial soul cultivation theory. "But for twin martial souls, their quality is generally on par, so you should have prioritized your beast martial soul."

"I have my reasons."

Xu Huang knew well that a tool martial soul offered superior attack power compared to a beast martial soul. However, with the Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation in his possession, attack power was never his concern. What he needed was the strongest possible body, and the beast martial soul's physical enhancements were visibly more potent.

That's why he aimed to have all of the spirit rings for his second martial soul, the Violet Destruction Sky Dragon, surpass the 100,000-year mark—to ensure the utmost physical fortification.

"But what about you, Tang San? Teaming up with Austin Griffin? Don't tell me you don't know what kind of being it is." Xu Huang's voice grew colder with accusation.

"Sorry, but I really don't."

Tang San's left hand clenched into a fist as the Haotian Hammer slowly materialized. His soul power instantly surged, growing violent. Destructive energy exploded outward, crashing toward Xu Huang—

"After all, I've never read 'The Divine Throne of Primordial Gods.'"
