Wang Chen and Tang San locked eyes, showing not the slightest trace of fear.
Through the evil eye at his brow, Wang Chen could see clearly: what stood before him was merely a projection of Tang San's divine power.
Its strength was ordinary; it could only bully those little trash who hadn't grasped the power of laws. To him, it posed no threat at all, so naturally, he felt no fear.
Let alone a mere divine power projection—even if Tang San's true body came, Wang Chen would not be afraid in the slightest.
Although Wang Chen currently only controlled 1/10 of the laws of time and would definitely be unable to defeat Tang San's main body, which possessed God King strength, it was equally impossible for Tang San to kill him.
Because after Wang Chen took control of the Sun Moon Empire, the space that came with the black book had been repaired.
This space could not only adjust the flow of time; as the master of the black book, Wang Chen could freely enter and exit it, and even kick people and objects inside out.
Moreover, once inside, no one from the outside could attack Wang Chen through the black book's space.
It could be said that inside the black book's space was absolute safety. In the entire Douluo Continent world, not even a God King-level powerhouse could breach it.
If Tang San truly risked breaking the rules of the God Realm and giving the God King of Destruction a handle to use against him by personally descending to kill him,
Then Wang Chen could simply take his family and friends and hide inside the black book's space. Even if Tang San used every ounce of strength he had, he wouldn't be able to harm a single hair on Wang Chen's head.
At that point, he could just hole up in the black book for ten or twenty years, wait until he fully mastered the laws of time, then come out and annihilate Tang San.
With this trump card, Wang Chen naturally faced Tang San with complete confidence.
Wang Chen spoke, "Sea God Tang San, as a deity, why do you interfere in the affairs of the lower realm!"
Tang San's divine sense projection held the Sea God Trident, which reflected brilliant golden light under the sun.
Hearing Wang Chen's words, a trace of anger involuntarily rose in Tang San's heart.
'Who the hell do you think you are, Wang Chen! What I do is none of your business!
And you actually dare to directly call me by my divine name without even addressing me as lord—you truly court death!'
At this moment, although Tang San wished he could immediately tear Wang Chen into eight pieces, there was not the slightest killing intent on his face. Instead, he wore a smiling expression as he looked at Wang Chen.
Because Tang San knew full well that with the God of Destruction restraining him, he simply could not descend in his true body to kill Wang Chen.
Just now, his full-power strike with the divine power projection had originally been intended—under the pretext of protecting his daughter—to conveniently kill Wang Chen in passing.
But Wang Chen's strength far exceeded his expectations. With only a divine power projection, he could not kill Wang Chen.
Since he couldn't kill him, Tang San naturally chose to endure and see if he could use the divine position trap to directly finish him off.
Tang San said, "Wang Chen, Shrek Academy has deep ties with me, and my daughter is currently studying there.
I can ignore you destroying Shrek Academy, but when you endangered my daughter's life, I naturally had to intervene."
Wang Chen heard this and turned his gaze toward the pinkish-blue youth not far behind Tang San. He thought to himself, "I didn't expect that even without Huo Yuhao, Tang Wutong would still be at Shrek Academy.
As Tang San's daughter, when Tang Wutong is in danger, even the God King of Destruction probably wouldn't stop Tang San from protecting her."
Wang Chen had no intention of completely falling out with Tang San just yet. After all, although he wasn't worried about Tang San being able to kill him right now, he also couldn't defeat Tang San.
Wang Chen said, "I never expected the Sea God's daughter to be studying at Shrek Academy. That truly is surprising.
In that case, when I destroy Shrek Academy later, I will take special care of your daughter and not harm a single hair on her head."
Tang San's mouth twitched when he heard this. He had just said that he had deep ties with Shrek Academy, yet this Wang Chen still intended to destroy it—this guy really gave him no face at all.
However, after ten thousand years, Tang San no longer had much attachment to Shrek Academy. Moreover, he had no way to force Wang Chen not to destroy it, so Shrek Academy could only suffer for now.
Tang San changed the subject. "Wang Chen, I never imagined that in just a few days, your strength would reach this level.
With your current power, you don't need to undergo the divine trials at all—you can directly fuse with the Sea God divine position, and there would absolutely be no risk of failure.
I think you don't need to wait until you reach level 99. You can fuse with the Sea God position right now."
Of course, Tang San had no good intentions. He had already set more than a dozen traps in the Sea God's divine position. No one could take his Sea God position away from him.
As long as Wang Chen fused with it, Tang San would be able to control him completely and kill him with a single thought.
Wang Chen knew full well that Tang San had laid a trap waiting for him, but he would never step into it—he wouldn't even agree to it.
As long as he ignored Tang San, no matter how many traps and methods Tang San had prepared, they would all be useless.
Wang Chen declared loudly, "Although the Sea God's divine position is good, it is not suitable for me. Even if I inherited it, I would never surpass the first-generation Sea God who created it."
Tang San had thought Wang Chen wouldn't be able to resist the temptation of a divine position and would gladly accept, but Wang Chen's answer was completely beyond his expectations.
He naturally understood the meaning behind Wang Chen's words: he clearly wanted to create his own divine position, because only a divine position one created oneself was truly the most suitable.
Inheriting someone else's divine position was always the inferior path. After all, no matter how high your compatibility or how skillfully you wielded it, you could never achieve perfect harmony with the position.
Because the divine position was tailor-made by someone else for themselves, you are merely the inheritor, so your compatibility is inherently insufficient. No matter what, it is difficult to surpass the creator of the divine position.
However, creating a divine position is simply too difficult. Looking across the entire God Realm, only a handful of people have ever ascended by this method.
The vast majority of gods inherit divine positions—either from their predecessors or by fusing with positions condensed by the God Realm's central hub.
Tang San looked deeply at Wang Chen. He truly hadn't expected this kid to have such resolve—to be able to resist the temptation of a first-class divine position that was within arm's reach and instead choose to create his own divine position.
But the more this was the case, the more wary Tang San became of Wang Chen.
Wang Chen's rate of progress was simply too fast. If he continued like this, creating a divine position was inevitable; the only question was what level the created position would reach.
A second-class divine position was certain, and there was a high probability of a first-class one. Wang Chen's talent was even more terrifying than the first-generation Sea God.
The first-generation Sea God had spent a thousand years creating the first-class Sea God divine position.
Wang Chen very likely could create a first-class divine position in even less time, and the position he created might very well be even stronger than the Sea God position.
As for whether he could create a God King-level divine position, Tang San did not believe Wang Chen was capable of that.
Creating a God King-level divine position was simply too, too difficult—it was practically impossible.
A God King-level divine position required an extremely high degree of comprehension of powerful laws as well as an enormous amount of energy. Even a heaven-defying genius like the first-generation Sea God, even after spending tens of thousands of years, could not do it.
In reality, God King-level positions all evolved over countless years of cultivation and enlightenment from first-class divine positions by the most powerful first-class gods.
Only gods possessed enough time, energy, and ability to accomplish such a thing.
No matter how high a mortal's talent, they simply did not have enough lifespan to create a God King-level divine position.
Tang San thought to himself, "This Wang Chen truly has enormous ambition—he actually wants to walk the path of creating his own divine position.
In that case, he definitely will not fuse with the Sea God position. All the preparations I made in the Sea God position have gone to waste.
One day, when Wang Chen creates a first-class divine position and ascends to the God Realm, he will inevitably cause me no small amount of trouble and affect my plans to fully control Douluo Planet's origin.
This child truly is a serious threat!"
For a moment, Tang San's mood became extremely foul, but he could not find any way to kill Wang Chen.
However, Tang San's mental fortitude was strong, and he quickly reined in his emotions.
Tang San consoled himself, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Even if this kid creates a divine position, at most, he'll be a first-class god—he is still no match for me, a God King.
In the future, even if he discovers my plans on Douluo Planet, a mere first-class god like him—how could he contend against a true God King like me?
Moreover, creating a divine position is exceedingly difficult. He may not even be able to create a first-class one."
After this self-consolation, Tang San's mood improved considerably.
Tang San pretended to be magnanimous and smiled, "Good, Wang Chen. I truly didn't expect you to have such resolve. Then I will wait and see whether you can, like the first-generation Sea God, create your own divine position."
After saying this, Tang San's divine power projection dissipated, and Tang Wutong disappeared right after him—clearly returning to the God Realm.
Wang Chen watched Tang San's vanishing figure and thought to himself, "As the saying goes, the dog that bites doesn't bark. I really need to be on guard against this bastard Tang San..."
After Tang San left, Wang Chen turned his gaze back to the already ruined Shrek Academy. He raised his hand, and the power of space-time gathered once more.
This time, no one could stop him.
"From this day forward, on the Douluo Continent, Shrek no longer exists."
Silver-blue space-time power poured down like a tidal wave. In the face of this power, Shrek Academy collapsed like a sandcastle. When the light faded,
Shrek Academy had become a field of ruins, leaving only a massive crater and, on Sea God Island, a single golden ancient tree.
Wang Chen had deliberately left the Golden Tree intact. The Golden Tree was a treasure. Not only did it contain vast semi-divine-level energy, but it could also strengthen spirit masters and protect their surroundings.
It gathered the heaven-and-earth origin energy, allowed spirit masters to enter deep meditative states, increased comprehension, and greatly accelerated cultivation speed—it was truly a supreme treasure.
Any power that obtained the Golden Tree, as long as it wasn't destroyed midway, would become a top-tier force on the continent.
The reason Shrek Academy had been able to grow from a small academy into a colossal entity that suppressed entire nations was, in no small part, due to the Golden Tree.
Wang Chen naturally would not destroy such a treasure. After cleaning it up later, he would place it with the Wang family.
With the Golden Tree's protection, plus the foundation Wang Chen left behind, as long as the Wang family didn't court death in the future, their safety would be assured forever.
With a wave of his hand, the entire Sea God Island vanished, taken into his space.
After finishing with Shrek Academy, Wang Chen's figure flashed and disappeared.
Next, he still had to visit the Tianhun Empire, Dou Ling Empire, Star Luo Empire's imperial family, and many top-tier sects.
Possessing absolute strength, Wang Chen had no intention of playing mind games with these forces.
Just one sentence: Those who follow me prosper, those who oppose me perish!
All who were unwilling to submit would be annihilated!
