Douluo: Yu Hao Pan Tang San

Chapter 389, Section 408: The Darkened Rats

"As for the old man, you, what gives you the nerve to ask me to turn back?" Tang Xiao said venomously to the Haotian Sect elder, "Where were you when my lover was kidnapped by that Tang Hao? Where were you when I was crippled by Tang Xiao and spent most of my life in mediocrity? Where were you when that bastard Tang Lie took advantage of his promotion to Title Douluo to replace me and expel me from the Haotian Sect? Oh, I almost forgot, you were also a member of the Elder Council. You were one of the ones who made me step down from the position of Sect Master, weren't you?"

"Cough cough." The elder remained silent, only spitting out blood.

"Because of my weakness and incompetence, I couldn't keep the woman I love by my side, forcing her to bear a son for a man she didn't love; because of my weakness and incompetence, my destiny of rising to prominence was stolen by Tang Hao's birth; because of my weakness and incompetence, you bunch of bastards didn't dare to confront Tang Hao or the Spirit Hall, instead placing all the blame on me. Now, I, Tang Xiao, have had enough of weakness and incompetence, and I'm going to pursue my goal of becoming a beast of power! Hahahaha!" Tang Xiao laughed wildly, then widened his eyes and asked the Clear Sky Sect elder, "So what?"

“That’s right. I, Tang Xiao, would rather be a beast dominated by power than a powerless flying beast.” Tang Xiao grasped the Rakshasa Demon Scythe and said, “My experiences in the first half of my life have taught me one thing: without Powa, my fate is controlled by others; with Powa, I can control the fate of others!”

"I want to become a more powerful being, a more powerful being. I want to climb step by step to a height that no one can reach, and eventually become a god, so that I can take revenge on everyone who tormented me in the first half of my life. The Haotian Sect is just the beginning!"

"So don't use the Haotian Sect to morally blackmail me. I, Tang Xiao, am only doing this for myself!" With that, Tang Xiao raised his scythe and brought it down.

Blood splattered everywhere, and the last elder of the Rat Cave also died in a pool of blood.

Thus, the future provides a clear conclusion to this period of history: the Haotian Sect, with its thousand-year-old heritage, came to a complete end at this moment. Later generations provide an overview of this period of Haotian Sect history: Tang Chen brought the Haotian Sect to a height that did not belong to it. When it began to fall, Tang Hao, one of the Haotian Twins, kicked the Haotian Sect directly into a coffin, while Tang Xiao, the other Haotian Twin, was responsible for closing the coffin and nailing it shut.

Tang Xiao devoured the elder's soul. After devouring the souls of an entire sect, the energy he had accumulated finally reached a critical point.

Tang Xiao sat down cross-legged, surrounded by the corpses of rats. He circulated his internal energy, trying his best to break through his bottleneck.

In the end, Tang Xiao's aura surged, advancing from level 94 Title Douluo to level 95.

At the Title Douluo level, each level of advancement is significant, and Tang Xiao felt he could defeat several versions of himself from an hour ago.

Moreover, a notification from the depths of Tang Xiao's consciousness regarding the Rakshasa God's assessment resounded:
The second test of the Rakshasa God has been completed. The reward is +1000 years for all Soul Rings and +10% Rakshasa Affinity.

At this moment, Tang Xiao's spirit rings were all revealed. With the enhancement of the Rakshasa God's divine power, Tang Xiao's spirit ring configuration directly changed to four purple, four black, and one red.

He felt wonderful. The powerful impact of the impact made Tang Xiao unconsciously step on the bones in the rat hole, clench his fists in the moonlight, stretch out his arms, and pound his chest, making a melodious baboon call.

"Powder, powder, powerful powder, but it's not enough. Level 95 strength is far from enough. I need more powder. I want Tang Hao to repay me a hundredfold for the humiliation he brought me," Tang Xiao said.

When Tang Xiao needed to improve his powerful throwing ability, the Rakshasa God's third test followed closely behind!

The third test of the Rakshasa God: Establish your own power and submit the results five years later. The reward will depend on the strength of your power.

"To build our own power base?"

Tang Xiao looked at the scattered corpses of the Haotian Sect disciples around him and felt a pang of regret. How could he have killed them so readily? If he had known about this assessment earlier, he should have kept them alive and turned these Haotian Sect disciples into his slaves, making them contribute all their remaining value to him. However, it seems it's not too late now.

Tang Xiao had an idea. He took the Rakshasa Demon Scythe to the high point of the rat hole and looked around. On the ground all around, there were clearly visible blood-red pipa flowers, and in the center of the blood-red pipa flowers were skeletons.

These were once his fellow clansmen, but Tang Xiao felt no emotion towards them at this moment. His only thought was to obtain a powerful weapon, take revenge on Tang Hao and Tang San, become a god, and reunite with Ah Yin. That was all.

Tang Xiao brandished the Rakshasa Demon Scythe and activated his domain, the Rakshasa Domain.

"Awaken, my slaves!"

An evil, seemingly non-aura-based domain began to spread outwards from Tang Xiao's center, and soon, Tang Xiao's domain encompassed the entire Haotian Sect.

Soon, something strange happened.

Within that evil realm, the corpse of a Soul Master, which had been severed at the waist, began to writhe. His lower body legs began to kick forward, while his upper body hands began to crawl backward. Finally, the two parts of the corpse and the two wounds merged together and healed amidst the evil aura.

After healing, it stood up, and the evil aura of the Rakshasa realm came from all directions, pouring into its body through multiple entrances such as its mouth, nose, ears, eyes, and anus.

It emitted a strange sound: "Ah ...

His bronze skin began to darken, turning the color of coal.

Its arms became longer, and because its legs became shorter, its overall height also decreased by a head.

Its originally needle-like hair became curly, and its lips became thicker.

He opened his tightly closed eyes, which gleamed with a blood-red light, and his swollen nostrils began to flare as he breathed rapidly, like a cow panting.

"Aaaaaahhhhhh—" After recovering, he clenched his fists, stretched out his long arms, and pounded his chest fiercely, letting out a savage roar.

This was just the beginning. Around Tang Xiao, one after another, dark-skinned, short-limbed figures revived. They stretched out their arms, pounded their chests, and let out long, savage baboon roars to declare their existence.

"It was I who gave you life and consciousness. Everything about you will be under my control. Kneel down, my slaves!" Tang Xiao commanded.

Upon hearing Tang Xiao's order, the corrupted rats knelt down before him to express their loyalty.
