Over the past sixteen years of rapid development on the Douluo Continent, Tang San's avatars—sent to the Underworld—have also been growing rapidly.
The moment the blood egg shattered, the avatar witnessed the dark side of this world—this was true darkness. The entire world seemed to be enveloped in a thick black cloth. The only sources of light were the flashes of bloody thunder in the thick dark clouds and the unknown glowing creatures with distorted shapes growing on the ground.
The environment here was unpredictable.
At times, the cold winds were piercing, as if one were in the extreme northern ice caves; at other times, fierce flames burned, as though placed in a furnace.
A normal person couldn't endure for even a second!
Even a world-class powerhouse at level 99 would not survive in such an environment for a month!
But for Tang San's avatar, enjoying the biting cold winds and the searing flames felt as soothing as a spring breeze—he was quite comfortable. The evil thoughts, resentments, hatred, anger, and fury here were all nutrients for his rapid growth.
From "birth" until now, it had been no more than half an hour, and his strength had already reached the threshold of near-divinity. Breaking through to level 100 was only a step away.
"I am the true master here!" the avatar of Greed, Anger, and Delusion howled to the sky. His six eyes found the core of this world, and he directly broke through space and charged in.
Abyssal creatures thrived in a law of survival of the fittest. In each layer, the ruler was the strongest. If someone could openly defeat a lower-level ruler, they could become the new emperor of that layer.
The Underworld Lord wouldn't intervene, nor would the Abyssal Holy Lord take notice.
At least, before the last thirty-six layers, no matter what chaos the avatar of Greed, Anger, and Delusion caused, it wouldn't matter. After all, with the fusion of the Abyssal realm and this planet, each layer wouldn't collapse upon the fall of its ruler. Additionally, with the Underworld Lord's orders for rulers to search for other dimensional passages, the Underworld world was constantly evolving.
"Interesting." After defeating the ruler of the first layer and obtaining this information, the avatar of Greed, Anger, and Delusion chuckled. He revived the defeated emperor of the first layer and said, "You're still the master here. A mere ruler of the first layer is beneath me."
Without waiting for the first layer's emperor to react, the avatar moved on to the second layer, slaying any Abyssal creature that tried to obstruct him and finding the second layer's ruler. He killed them once before reviving them.
This process continued as the avatar challenged and revived each ruler on each layer, all the while collecting intelligence and recording information.
Such actions continued until the 73rd layer, at which point the emperors of those layers took notice.
The overwhelming power of Greed, Anger, and Delusion led the emperors of the last thirty-six layers to confront him, seeking to subdue him. However, the avatar—a near-divine being—challenged all thirty-six emperors at once.
Of these thirty-six emperors, nine had reached god-level, yet despite this, the avatar of Greed, Anger, and Delusion showed no fear.
When he unleashed his true form—three heads and six arms—each arm wielded a different weapon: a terrifying battle hammer, a long spear that glowed with eerie blue light, and a whip that resembled a snake-like creature, with its beast head merging with the central head to form a vicious dragon's head.
The three divine weapons—Greed, Anger, and Delusion—were each controlled by one of his heads, and he charged towards the thirty-six emperors. Entering the encirclement, he blocked their attacks and laws. At his peak, he spun like a berserk tornado, sweeping through the Abyssal world of the thirty-sixth layer and annihilating the twenty-seven near-divine beings.
The nine god-level emperors were left battered and broken, their divine bodies torn apart. Terrified, they dared not engage any further.
They never imagined that a near-divine being could possess such battle power and defy gods with mere mortal strength!
This immense disturbance naturally drew the attention of Ashura Zhou Weiqing and the Underworld Lord Xu Huang.
Both arrived on the scene to witness the avatar of Greed, Anger, and Delusion wreaking havoc. Sensing the pressure, the avatar unexpectedly broke through and reached god-level, condensing the three evil gods of Greed, Anger, and Delusion. With the abundant evil energy in the Underworld world, his power had already reached a level equal to Tang San himself, attaining the status of a Supreme God King!
Enraged, the Underworld Lord and Zhou Weiqing immediately attacked, determined to kill this existence and prevent it from claiming the Underworld world.
However, in doing so, their own greed, anger, and obsession became fuel for the avatar's growth, causing his power to increase once again and even overpowering the two of them.
"Scoundrel! This is my world!" The Underworld Lord roared as three thousand Blood God Children erupted from his body, transforming into countless avatars, each of god-officiant level.
"Three Thousand Blood Gods Covering All Life!"
Each of the three thousand Blood God Children unleashed a different law power, all infused with the Underworld's energy, coalescing into a massive sea of blood that nearly covered the entire Underworld world, heading towards the avatar of Greed, Anger, and Delusion.
"Oh, then it seems this was just a dream."
Tang Chuan murmured to himself, and only after the day's lessons were finished did he come back to his senses. He picked up his bag and headed home.
By the time the weekend came, Tang Chuan was strolling along a path in a park by the river outside the campus, observing the real world. Suddenly, he took a deep breath and sighed, "I really miss this. I can't believe I've actually returned."
Taking a few more steps forward, he saw three of his classmates, including his deskmate Sun Ming, standing on the side of the path, watching a woman practicing Tai Chi. Their faces wore expressions of infatuation, clearly mesmerized by her.
However, in Tang Chuan's eyes, it seemed as though he could see the trajectory of fate: "Perhaps my deskmate is also dreaming..."
With that thought, a dazzling Blue Silver Emperor, shining like a river of stars, emerged from his palm...
Sun Ming, almost as if sensing something, suddenly turned his head, but didn't see anyone. He scratched his head in confusion but quickly dismissed the thought and returned to watching the Tai Chi practitioner, silently wondering, "Could this woman be Tang Zichen?"
It wasn't surprising that Sun Ming thought so, considering one of his classmates, Wang Chao, was...

Inside the Soul Martial Manor, Tang San opened his eyes. His gaze seemed to reflect countless stars. He smiled and said, "This is the true me. My fate is in my hands, and I can descend into countless multiverses."
"A certification for eternity—nothing could be more definitive."
"Perhaps my strength is still far below that of those who have already attained True Spirit, but at the root, I no longer differ from them."
"After all, life is eternal from the moment it is born."
It wasn't until he attained True Spirit that Tang San understood the meaning behind what "Gu" had once said. All information is recorded in the True Spirit, and because the True Spirit is undying, no matter how many times it faces destruction, it will always return from the endless flow of time. Once revived, it will reach its original peak power.
Moreover, the information imprinted on the True Spirit can be constantly updated.
For those who have attained True Spirit, the way they compete with one another is no longer about pure strength, but rather the breadth and depth of information. The more information one possesses, the stronger the "special effects" that manifest.
However, Tang San was also fortunate to be born in this Douluo universe, which was known as the "sewer of all worlds." Having attained True Spirit, those powerful figures had no interest in coming to investigate him. Otherwise, they would have undoubtedly reduced him to just his True Spirit, treating him as a "primal spiritual treasure," trapping him in a state of "losing oneself."
As for the many transmigrators on this Douluo Continent, Tang San understood. It was because of two or more beings who had mastered True Spirit fighting each other. A trace of their power spread to their universe, causing space to warp, time flow to become chaotic, and information to radiate, which led to a multitude of transmigrators descending—this wasn't limited to Douluo Continent, but affected the entire multiverse. Countless transmigrators arrived.
Tang San had informed Xiao Wu and the others about these events. After all, those who control True Spirit have never cared whether they are known to others. Even if someone learns the truth, as long as they are not on the same level, that memory will eventually fade away over the course of time.
Tang San's goal in telling his companions was to encourage them to attain True Spirit as well. Everyone should share both joy and hardship, and together they could build a "legitimate" private enterprise.
After all, anyone daring to go solo—"Gu" had already given Tang San a cautionary example.
"So, what should we do now?" Xiao Wu asked.
"Over these past sixteen years, my clone has almost taken control of the Abyss dimension, but personal heroism is not the way, so—"
Tang San waved his hand, and through the Blue Silver Network, he opened the first game of the Starry Sky World for the beings of Douluo Continent: The Abyss Invasion Game! It has officially begun!
This is the first game, but certainly not the last!
The types of games won't be limited to warfare either. In the future, there will be games involving farming, management, adventure, civilization development, and more!
Essentially, it is a process of the Starry Sky World continually incorporating other dimensions, establishing a multi-racial, diversified world, which naturally includes the divine realm...
"Let's put aside the future for now," Xiao Wu interrupted Tang San, her eyes gleaming with seriousness like precious gems. "There's something very important right in front of us right now—"
"We haven't officially gotten married yet, have we?"
Tang San froze for a moment, looking at Xiao Wu, Guangling, Ning Rongrong, Huo Wu, Mengmeng, Nian Nian, and even Zhu Zhuqing, Qian Renxue, and Gu Yue Na, who he didn't realize had joined them. He couldn't help but laugh, "Well then, let's get married!"
(The End)
