Chapter 321: Discovering Tang San and Telling Tang San the Truth
After detecting Yu Xiaogang, Jerry did not act immediately; he wanted to see exactly how many things were currently hidden in Wuhun City that he did not know about.
Not long after, Jerry suddenly discovered a courtyard; this courtyard was uninhabited, which was also a point that Jerry found strange.
This courtyard was in the fourth-ring area; while one couldn't call it land worth its weight in gold, the price of this courtyard was still quite expensive, yet now an empty courtyard had appeared.
One must know that the housing management department of the Spirit Hall was very strict; courtyards left uninhabited for a long time would be reclaimed. Now that this courtyard had not been reclaimed but instead left vacant, there was only one reason: someone had been paying the management fees for the courtyard all along.
Who exactly was so wealthy that they bought a courtyard and just left it vacant?
Subsequently, Jerry used his divine sense to probe the housing management department, and within the archives, he found the information for this courtyard; the owner of the house was actually Oscar.
Oscar's Gourmet Association was currently developing very broadly; according to Oscar's business acumen, it was impossible for him to buy a courtyard and prefer to leave it idle rather than develop it for commercial use.
Based on the location of this courtyard, even if it were rented out, the monthly rent would be a significant income, so why would Oscar want to leave this courtyard idle?
It could only mean one reason: this courtyard had other uses, or he was storing some things here.
Thinking of this, Jerry turned back to examine this courtyard again; this time the check was more thorough, and he looked over everything inside and out.
The result was that he found nothing; it seemed it was not used for storing things. If it wasn't for storing things, then what were its other uses?
Jerry's true body came directly to this courtyard, and under the effect of his divine sense, the structure of the entire courtyard immediately appeared in his mind.
Suddenly, Jerry discovered something was not quite right; according to the floor plan probed by his divine sense, there was one position where the vacancy was too large; even for a load-bearing pillar, it didn't need such a large space.
A secret room!
This word suddenly appeared in Jerry's mind.
After looking from several directions, the best position to connect to the secret room was the restroom, and the position connected to the secret room was a huge floor-to-ceiling mirror.
His divine sense probed into the gap along the edge of the floor-to-ceiling mirror, and sure enough, behind it was a staircase leading underground.
Jerry had no interest in studying how to open this mechanism; he directly used his divine sense to lift the mirror and set it aside, and the pitch-black staircase appeared instantly.
Perhaps because Jerry used his divine sense to move the mirror directly, the mechanism inside was not triggered, so the lights on the staircase did not turn on at all; it was pitch-black, and one could not see the things inside with the naked eye.
Jerry did not intend to go in directly either, to prevent there being any other mechanisms inside; although even if there were mechanisms, it would be hard for them to hurt Jerry, but using his divine sense to probe it would avoid trouble.
His divine sense probed along the staircase, and very quickly he saw a bright space; the next moment, Jerry disappeared directly.
Just after probing this space, Jerry saw Tang San sitting on a sofa cultivating; Jerry didn't even think about it and directly teleported over.
Tang San had not discovered that Jerry had already arrived before him and was still in the midst of cultivation; seeing Tang San in this state, a smile appeared on Jerry's face, and he sat down directly on the sofa opposite Tang San.
When he sat down, Jerry did not restrain his aura; Tang San, who was cultivating, suddenly felt that someone was beside him—was it Oscar who had come? Thinking of this, Tang San stopped cultivating directly and then slowly opened his eyes.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Jerry sitting opposite him, and a feeling of horror instantly surged into Tang San's heart.
At this moment, Tang San felt a huge pressure pressing down fiercely on his body, making him not dare to move at all.
Jerry was clearly sitting opposite him very calmly with a faint smile on his face, but to Tang San, the feeling was incomparably terrifying.
It was because the pressure Jerry had previously put on him was too great, becoming a heart demon; otherwise, he would have become a god by now, so how could he still be afraid of Jerry! Thinking of this, Tang San's heart calmed down a lot instantly.
"Tang San, long time no see. Since we parted at Sea God Island last time, I have been looking for you for a long time!"
Jerry said with a full face of smiles, his tone carrying a slight bit of happiness.
Hearing Jerry's words, Tang San felt the hair all over his body stand up; the words were clearly very gentle, but after hearing them, Tang San felt as if a demon was speaking to him.
"Jerry, I am not afraid of you. I have already become a god; ordinary methods are useless against me. We are both gods, what can you do to me?"
Tang San tried hard to make his speech sound more forceful, but after saying it, he was still trembling; there was no help for it, the impression Jerry had left on Tang San was truly too profound—just thinking about it made him feel fear.
"Little San, it's been many years; I came to catch up with you, but you are full of malice toward me."
"Jerry, put away that face of yours; the things from back then, I will never forget in this lifetime." Tang San clenched his fists and used all the strength in his body to roar at Jerry.
"Little San, we were good friends when we were young; I never thought about dealing with you either, but you walked step by step to the opposite side of me. There are some things you don't understand, and even if I told you, you wouldn't believe them, but I still have to say them, so that you can die with a clear understanding."
Hearing Jerry's words, Tang San did not reply; he did not want to listen to any of Jerry's words, and he wouldn't believe even a single word.
Seeing that Tang San wanted to interrupt his speech, Jerry continued: "Don't interrupt me, listen to me finish first, and this time I will tell you everything you want to know."
Hearing that Jerry's tone had become solemn, Tang San stopped his thought of interrupting Jerry; he also wanted to hear what exactly Jerry wanted to say.
"First, let me tell you about the God Realm; the God Realm is a Small World attached to the Douluo Continent. The gods inside opened up nine Energy Absorption Holes, absorbing ninety percent of the soul power on the Douluo Continent, to the extent that the soul power concentration of the entire Douluo Continent has decreased, and all living things cultivate slowly."
"Every world has something called a World Hub, and through the World Hub, one can change some of the world's Rules."
"In ancient times, Soul Beasts did not have Thunder Tribulation when they cultivated to one hundred thousand years, and Spirit Masters did not need to add Spirit Rings when cultivating; moreover, the lifespan of Spirit Masters would also greatly increase with the improvement of their cultivation, and four or five hundred years was very common."
"So the God Realm is a parasite, a vampire of the Douluo Continent, cutting off the cultivation future of the entire continent."
"Don't interrupt me, I know what you want to say; you are talking about the God Trial, right!"
"Then let me tell you: after the gods of the God Realm cultivate to a certain realm, they cannot cultivate any further; they are restricted by their God Position."
"A God Position is a product formed by the world dividing up some of its own authority for the sake of better development; to put it bluntly, accepting a God Position is equivalent to working for the world."
"But the gods of the God Realm only want to enjoy the convenience of the God Position, yet they do not want to fulfill the corresponding obligations."
"They do not help the world develop, the world does not undergo World Advancement, and the upper limit of the God Position cannot be broken; but World Advancement is a very difficult thing, so they thought of another method, which is the God Trial—passing on their own God Positions so that they can get rid of the restrictions of the God Position."
"Because I knew these things, I want to destroy all the God Trial sites on the Douluo Continent, and Sea God Island is one of them, and you, you accepted the Sea God inheritance."
When Jerry said this, he paused for a moment to let Tang San properly absorb his words just now.
After listening to Jerry's words, Tang San fell into deep thought; Jerry's words, added to the rumors the God Realm had previously given him, meant he now already believed Jerry's words.
No wonder; the previous rumors from the God Realm telling us to overthrow the Spirit Hall were because Jerry was leading the Spirit Hall to destroy the gods' inheritance sites in the lower realm.
Later, the God Realm suddenly told him to stop, and even to help the Spirit Hall when necessary, so that the world could successfully undergo World Advancement. After the world successfully underwent World Advancement, their God Position restrictions would be broken, and they could cultivate to a higher realm; it was beneficial to all of them, so they didn't let him take action.
Suddenly, Tang San thought of a problem: the God Position upper limit had been broken, he had now completed the God Trial and arrived at the God Realm—would the previous god go back on their word?
No, it should be said that the gods had already gone back on their word; otherwise, why would they stop contacting them afterward? And according to the previous layout, the five of them would sooner or later clash with Jerry; this was wanting to use Jerry's hand to get rid of the five of them.
Thinking of this, Tang San was full of hatred and slapped the table in front of him; the table could not withstand Tang San's slap and instantly shattered into pieces.
Seeing this scene, Jerry also knew that Tang San must have realized he had been schemed against by the God Realm; if he couldn't even think of this, Tang San wouldn't be worthy of being the Child of Luck of this world.
"This is already too much for you to bear? I still have many things I haven't said yet!"
"Let me tell you one more thing: Tang San, an outer sect disciple of the Tang Sect in the Shu region, stole inner sect secret manuals, was pursued by the sect, jumped off Ghost Sorrow, and his body was destroyed. His soul transmigrated to the Douluo Continent and occupied the body of the son of Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao."
Hearing these words from Jerry, Tang San instantly felt horror; these things, he had never told anyone, so how did Jerry know?
"Actually, even if you hadn't performed soul possession, that infant wouldn't have survived back then. The aftermath of the battle between Title Douluo had already claimed the infant's life. After the infant's soul dissipated, your soul entered."
"Do you know why Tang Hao was so cold to you when you were a child? It's because Tang Hao discovered back then that the infant's vital signs had vanished, but later, he didn't know how they had recovered."
"Moreover, Tang Hao felt guilty; every time he saw you, he would think of his deceased wife."
"The people of the Clear Sky Sect probably wouldn't dare tell you about Tang Hao's wife, would they!"
"The mother of this body of yours was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor who had transformed into a human. Tang Hao had long discovered her identity, which is why he approached her—his goal was her Spirit Ring and soul bone."
"I have to say, although the methods were a bit despicable, he succeeded."
When Jerry said this, Tang San suddenly interrupted and roared loudly: "You're full of it! How could my father be such a person?"
"Don't get excited. You must have heard some fragmented information, right?"
"After Tang Hao and the Blue Silver Emperor A Yin married back then, Tang Hao also broke through to level ninety. With Tang Hao's status in the Clear Sky Sect, he could easily have found a seventy or eighty-thousand-year Soul Beast to absorb a Spirit Ring without spending much time. But Tang Hao didn't want to be like others; his goal was to absorb a Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring as his ninth Spirit Ring."
"Before he could make a move, A Yin became pregnant. After all, it was his own flesh and blood, so he halted his plan until this body of yours was born."
"Whether it's a Soul Beast or a human, after giving birth, one is bound to be severely weakened. At that time, one should have been resting properly, yet Tang Hao took A Yin to Wuhun City."
"Taking a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast to Wuhun City, where there are the most Title Douluo on the entire continent—this point alone explains a lot of things."
"Next, Wuhun City received news about the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast. If nothing went wrong, this news was passed on by Tang Hao."
"At that time, Soul Beasts and humans were naturally on opposite sides. Humans hunted Soul Beasts, and Soul Beasts killed humans in retaliation; it was the norm of society. When the two sides met, it was either you die or I die."
"After the Pope of the Spirit Hall, Qian Xunji, received the news, he took my master and Ghost Douluo to personally capture the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast."
"Later, during a life-or-death crisis, the Blue Silver Emperor sacrificed herself to Tang Hao. Tang Hao also fought back directly, severely wounding Qian Xunji, and then Tang Hao ran away with the infant."
"As the ruler among Blue Silver Grass, she naturally couldn't just die like that. After she sacrificed herself, she left behind a seed. When this seed survives again, she can be resurrected."
"Tang Hao had lived with A Yin for a long time, so of course, it was impossible for him to have no feelings at all. However, feeling guilty, he planted the seed in the cave behind the waterfall at the back of Holy Soul Village. It was dark, damp, and lacked sunlight—he completely intended for A Yin to fend for herself in that environment."
"Because of your parents, this is also the reason why you had Twin Martial Souls when this body awakened. The condition for forming Twin Martial Souls is that the two martial souls must be of equal quality and cannot devour each other. The Blue Silver Emperor martial soul and the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul are on par in quality, so your previous martial soul was the Blue Silver Emperor, not Blue Silver Grass."
Hearing this, shock, resentment, and pain appeared in succession on Tang San's face.
Although he didn't believe Jerry's words at first, he was no longer a child and had his own ability to think and judge. Jerry's words, combined with the fragments he already knew, could basically be connected. Therefore, knowing the truth, he was somewhat at a loss.
Seeing Tang San's appearance, Jerry continued: "Next is the matter of the Clear Sky Sect. Back then, there were three Limit Douluo on the Douluo Continent: Clear Sky Douluo Tang Chen, Sea God Douluo Poseidon, and Sky Douluo Qian Daoliu."
"The three were not only Limit Douluo, but also the strongest in the three domains of sea, land, and air. At the same time, the three were good friends."
"Each of them had a force behind them. The only difference was that the Clear Sky Sect had no divine inheritance, so Tang Chen had to go out and find a divine inheritance himself. Eventually, he found the inheritance of the Asura God in Slaughter City, but he fell for the Rakshasa God's underhanded trick during the trial and was parasitized by the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King, becoming the Slaughter King of Slaughter City."
"Because of Tang Chen's disappearance, the status of the Clear Sky Sect declined significantly, and it could only join with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to become the Three Great Sects."
"After all, the sect once stood at the very top of the continent, so these people from the Clear Sky Sect wanted to restore their former glory. Their ambition was great, but their strength was insufficient."
"Therefore, whenever there was an opportunity, they would jump out to stir up trouble, and when they failed, they would retreat from the world. Previously, relying on their connection to Tang Chen, the Spirit Hall wouldn't destroy the Clear Sky Sect. Even when Qian Xunji died and the Spirit Hall attacked the Clear Sky Sect, they didn't directly wipe them out because of Qian Daoliu."
"Later, when they took you back, as soon as you provided Tang Sect weapons, the Clear Sky Sect jumped out and urged the Empire to launch a war. And this Bala Kingdom campaign should also be because you returned to the Clear Sky Sect, which made them feel that another opportunity had arrived."
"However, they didn't expect that they played too big this time. Zhu Zhuqing and Xue Ke are also god-level powerhouses, and Zhu Zhuqing had five Five Elements Bombs in her hand. The power of these five bombs could directly wipe out a kingdom."
"It's a pity I didn't see the scene of the five Five Elements Bombs exploding; it must have been spectacular."
"However, I have to say, you guys are a bit impressive. The believers of the Light God Sect, although they borrowed the power of gods, I have to admit that developing so many believers has caused me quite a bit of trouble."
"Oh right, and the Gourmet Appreciation Association. I really underestimated Oscar and Ma Hongjun. I originally thought they were just little lackeys following behind you; I didn't expect them to cause me so much trouble now."
"There is also a God Envoy, Yu Xiaogang, right? He is also in Wuhun City now, and he is researching the design of Soul Guidance Devices. He seems very devoted and has released many design plans, making many contributions to the Spirit Hall. Based on Yu Xiaogang's plans, many new types of Soul Guidance Devices have been derived in the past few years, saving the Spirit Hall a lot of time and earning the Spirit Hall a lot of money. I have to say, the Grandmaster still has some skills."
Hearing Jerry mention Oscar and Ma Hongjun, Tang San thought to himself, 'Oh no, it seems the two of them have been exposed. I must find a way to notify them.' However, with Jerry right in front of him, he couldn't find an opportunity.
Then, hearing Jerry mention Yu Xiaogang, the fire that Tang San had previously suppressed flared up again. Even if Yu Xiaogang had saved him once, aiding the enemy was still aiding the enemy. 'Yu Xiaogang, you short-sighted fool, you disregarded everything for a little bit of fame.' The more Tang San thought about it, the angrier he felt.
"I've told you almost everything I should tell you. As for some detailed issues, I won't go into them carefully. So, Tang San, you should know now why we are standing on opposite sides, right!"
"Oh right, there is one most important thing: just like you, I also transmigrated here!"
After Jerry finished speaking, he looked at Tang San with a smile. At this moment, Tang San was already in a state of stupor, his mind constantly echoing Jerry's last sentence. He, he, he also transmigrated here; he is also a transmigrator.
While shocked, Tang San also figured it out. No wonder! When Jerry was a child, he was different from other children and instead was similar to himself. He himself had turned from an adult into a child, so of course, he was different from children. He used to just think Jerry was smart, but he didn't expect that Jerry was actually the same as him.
The things Jerry said today made Tang San shocked repeatedly. Tang San's state of mind was showing signs of shattering, and he fell into deep thought.
