Douluo continent
The Star Dou forest
Tang Wulin and his friends came to the Star Dou forest in search of life crystals as they needed it for themselves even when they knew that those crystals are the only thing that was supporting the Star Dou forest.
They don't care for it. For they think that they are going to just take a few of those crystals and use it. It will not affect the Star Dou forest in anyway.
Amazing thought process!
They encountered the Great Beasts in the forest. Di Tian was already hungry for Wulin's flesh. He attacked them.
The weak Seven Devils have no choice as they were beaten black and blue, So Tang Wulin used his father's second help option.
A Golden Trident appeared and Wulin casted Millennium white clouds.
Di Tian used Blackhole fist to counter it.
The attacks were clashing against each other. Energies were rampant and other yada yada Xian Xia stuff was happening in the background, just imagine it yourself.
Suddenly a man came, took the golden trident from Wulin's hand during mid attack and flew up a little.
He started assessing the trident without a care for anything in the world.
All the people on the scene were looking at him weirdly. Di Tian has also stopped his attack the moment he came and was looking at the man.
All of them knew the man. To be truthful, there was seldom any person that didn't know about the man in the whole Douluo Star.
Why?
His posters were everywhere.
He was the mass murderer, the Great Genocider, the next messiah of holy spirit cult(?) and the killer of the justice envoys.
He was the man who sliced Titled Douluos and mechas over live broadcast. The live feed mecha even recorded the scene of their organs falling out of their bodies before when they were falling down for everyone.
He was also the one who committed the Great massacre in the Federation killing more than 600,000+ humans.
He was also the one who sinked the Federal fleet at the Heaven Dou city as a warning. He was the most famous criminal of the Federation, even above the Holy Spirit Cult and Tang Sect.
He is Fan Lin.
Currently he was playing with the Sea God Trident while assessing it. His attitude was nonchalant. From the beginning, he never paid them any attention.
Wulin was the most surprised person there. His spiritual domain was Time Reversal, and he had been cultivating Millennium White Clouds for a longer time, so he naturally had far superior mastery of this attack.
However, only when he truly held the golden trident in his hand did he discover that he was still nowhere near achieving full mastery and control.
The golden trident was far too heavy; it most likely weighed over 50 tons, and he was only just barely able to wield it. What was even more damning was that the golden trident was constantly devouring everything that comprised his very being. Regardless of whether it was his spiritual power, soul power, and energy, or his blood, flesh, and bones, all of it seemed to have been fused as one by the trident.
As such, as Tang Wulin unleashed his Millennium White Clouds, his body was already on the brink of falling apart even before he had managed to do anything to his opponent.
Was this the power of a true divine weapon? He most likely wouldn't be able to truly wield such a fearsome weapon even after becoming a Limit Douluo!
And yet Fan Lin was holding it with ease. He was even playing with it by just balancing on his fingers.
'That should be impossible! He can't be that strong. He is still a Soul Douluo while I am a Titled Douluo and my spiritual domain is even better than mother. How is he so strong then?'
Di Tian was also assessing Fan Lin. He sent Zi Ji to recruit him and Zi Ji was injured by him in return. He also refused them while insulting their group. The more infuriating thing was that Fan Lin was right.
The person most affected by the arrival of Fan Lin was Zi Ji. She was terrified from his attack last time and she thought he was there to end her.
" It really is 'His' trident. Huh, did Tang San gave a counterfeit trident to this thing? This is not the Original. What is it then? Stop resisting or else. Well ok."
They all heard the man. He was talking to himself but the contents shocked all of them.
What happened next is something that they will never forget. The man crushed the trident. It literally broke to thousands of pieces.
"It really was just a spiritual manifestation that was recreated in reality with the combination of spirit power and soul power. Huh, amazing."
The man said that while looking at the energy particles that were floating towards Wulin's forehead.
"The real weapon is still inside. Life is hard, huh."
Fan Lin said while teleporting. A silver claw came and smashed him to the ground before he can teleport.
All the Great Beasts bowed towards this figure. It teleported the seven devil's and one side character to somewhere else.
A silver haired figure came from the fissure. The claw also came from there.
She was beautiful and majestic looking. Even Di Tian bowed in front of her.
She had her hands clasped behind her back, and her entire body was enveloped within a layer of silver light. "It seems that none of you have ever taken me seriously."
Di Tian immediately fell to one knee. "We wouldn't dare, my Lord!"
"Really? Then how do you explain what just happened?" the silver figure asked in a cold voice.
She had actually been appraising the battle this entire time, but had only stepped in following Tang Wulin's abrupt disappearance, which had placed Shrek's Six Monsters in an extremely perilous situation.
"My Lord, I just don't understand why you're so protective of that Tang Wulin! His very existence is a threat to us, and his rate of development is only growing faster. If we continue to let him grow, it's very likely that he could completely master the Golden Dragon King's power soon."
The silver figure replied, "That's exactly what I want to see. I've already recovered the core of the Dragon God, and I'm waiting for him to develop to his full potential before fusing with him. Only then will the Dragon God be able to return in his full glory and rebuild the Divine Realm."
Di Tian stammered in a slightly slack-jawed manner, "B, but, who would claim dominance then? He's a human!"
The silver figure replied in a cold voice, "Are you more aware than I am of who will claim dominance following the fusion? I ordered you not to step in, yet you've disobeyed me over and over again. If I hadn't planted some surveillance on him, he would've most likely fallen by your hands already! He still hasn't developed to his full potential and completely absorbed the Golden Dragon King's power yet. If I kill him now and absorb his power, it's very likely that the Dragon God will never be able to return in his full glory."
"My sincerest apologies, my Lord." Di Tian was still rather unconvinced by this for some reason, but he couldn't pinpoint any fallacies in the silver figure's explanation.
The silver figure continued, "I'll let things slide this time, but from now on, stay out of this matter and leave h-... !"
She wasn't able to finish her words as Fan Lin Superman punched her in the face.
"I am still alive and all dear."
He said while cracking his bones a little.
