"Damn it, I can't die here..."
Feeling his body completely unable to move, Tang San screamed hysterically in his heart.
He wanted to move his body, but Lin Chen's spirit power pressure firmly locked him in place.
Under such terrifying spirit power oppression, Tang San had no room for resistance at all and could only allow Lin Chen to dominate him.
After fixing Tang San in place, Lin Chen's body gradually approached, his Golden Dragon Claw emitting a terrifying aura that made Tang San's heart leap into his throat.
At this moment, Tang San's desire for survival had reached its peak.
He looked at Lin Chen with a pleading expression.
"Lin Chen, don't we have no great enmity? Back at Nuoding Academy, I only spoke rudely for your own good."
"Could you just spare me this once?"
"I promise, I will never come looking for trouble with you again."
Tang San kept begging Lin Chen for mercy, hoping he would spare his life.
But how could Lin Chen let go of a hypocrite and a true villain like Tang San?
From his behavior in the original work, one could tell what kind of person Tang San was.
When his strength was weak, he was subservient; when his strength was great, he struck out heavily and practiced massive double standards.
"Tang San, if you want to beg for mercy, go beg for it down there."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Chen's golden right dragon claw slammed heavily toward Tang San's chest.
A large hole appeared; Tang San's entire chest was completely pierced through by Lin Chen.
"Lin... Chen, I, Tang San, curse... you... to die a horrible death!!!"
As his life force gradually faded, Tang San used his last breath to curse Lin Chen with a face full of malice.
If he could be resurrected, his primary goal would be to become stronger and then take revenge on Lin Chen!
Watching Tang San die, Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief, but he hadn't completely relaxed yet.
In this era, the true threat to the Douluo Continent was not Tang San, but the Enforcer of the God Realm, the Asura God.
This was the one Lin Chen truly needed to worry about.
After Tang San's life force disappeared, Lin Chen's black diary began to vibrate.
Seeing this, Lin Chen summoned his black diary and opened it; blood-red characters appeared one after another on the black diary.
[Congratulations to the Host for the first kill of Tang San, obtaining the power of providence from Tang San's body.]
(Note: This power of providence is a portion of the Douluo Continent's providence. The Asura God seized it and injected it into Tang San's body, making Tang San a quasi-Child of Providence of the Douluo Continent.)
Seeing the information on the black diary, Lin Chen nodded understandingly.
He had already guessed this fact previously, but it had never been confirmed.
How could Tang San, an outside transmigrator from another world, become the Child of Providence of the Douluo Continent in this era?
This must have been the Asura God's doing, injecting a portion of the Douluo Continent's power of providence into Tang San's body.
Therefore, Tang San not only had extraordinary talent, being one of the few twin spirits possessors in the history of the Douluo Continent.
Moreover, Tang San's background was also very strong; his father was the Clear Sky Douluo of the Clear Sky Sect, and his mother was the Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast, the Blue Silver Emperor.
The effect of this power of providence was also reflected in his own opportunities: the Immortal Herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, the external Spirit Bone Eight Spider Lances, and that Sea God inheritance item in the Heaven Dou Empire.
"Sigh, what a pity for my Xue'er. Clearly, she was the true Child of Providence of this era, but she was directly plotted against by the Asura God, eventually ending up with her God Position shattered and the fate of never being able to break through to Titled Douluo for eternity."
After confirming his suspicion, Lin Chen swore that he would definitely seek justice for his Xue'er in the future.
While Lin Chen was lamenting.
On the black diary in his hand, blood-red characters emerged once again.
[Host, directly absorbing this power of providence will make the Host appear directly in the eyes of the Asura God.]
[This system has already processed this power of providence and is giving it to the Host as a reward. Please make a choice.]
[Option One: The Host's Spirit, the Golden Holy Dragon King, will evolve again to become a Dragon King-level Spirit, the Light Dragon King.] (Note: The Golden Holy Dragon and the Golden Holy Dragon King are both bloodline branches of the Light Dragon King.)
[Option Two: The Host's Spirit Power Level can be raised directly from the current Spirit Saint level to the Rank 99 super Douluo level.] (Note: When the Spirit Power Level reaches Rank 99, the Host's strength level will directly reach the peak of a Quasi-God, making you the first person below God-level.)
Seeing the choices given by the diary system, Lin Chen pondered. These two reward directions were completely different; one was an improvement in talent, and the other was an improvement in strength.
No matter which one he chose, the improvement for Lin Chen would be massive.
But—
Lin Chen resolutely chose the talent improvement. Raising the Spirit Power Level was much simpler than raising talent.
The Light Dragon King, at its peak, was a top-tier God King. Even the two original God Kings of the current Douluo God Realm, the God of Evil and the God of Goodness.
In a one-on-one duel, they might not necessarily be able to defeat a top-tier God King like the Light Dragon King.
Therefore, a Dragon King-level Spirit could give Lin Chen's talent a qualitative leap.
"System, I choose Option One! Evolve the Spirit into the Light Dragon King!"
Lin Chen called out to the system in his heart, stating his choice.
Immediately after, bursts of mechanical system sounds rang out in Lin Chen's mind.
[Ding, the Host's Spirit will evolve within three seconds. The system has covered the phenomenon of the Spirit evolution for the Host. Please proceed with the evolution with peace of mind.]
After hearing the information from the system, Lin Chen slowly sat down cross-legged, preparing to evolve his Spirit into the Light Dragon King.
The next moment.
Lin Chen only felt the meridians in his body expanding wildly, the vitality of his internal organs becoming stronger and stronger, and his physical fitness undergoing earth-shaking changes.
Regarding the changes in his body, Lin Chen felt it was normal. After all, a beast Spirit and its Spirit Master share a common glory.
When a beast Spirit undergoes evolution, the Spirit Master's body will also become stronger.
Besides the physical changes, as the Spirit continued to evolve, the elemental power within Lin Chen's body suddenly changed.
His body was already covered by the power of the light attribute, and endless light power was slowly released from his body.
The flowers, plants, and trees around Lin Chen became vibrant under the influence of Lin Chen's light power.
After a long time, Lin Chen slowly opened his eyes and stood up, his eyes full of joy.
A Dragon King-level Spirit is truly powerful.
Now Lin Chen was confident that his own strength level had definitely reached that of a Rank 98 Peak Douluo.
As long as the three super Douluo do not appear, who in the world can do anything to him?
And the golden dragon inside Lin Chen's body was already unable to restrain itself, wanting to come out and display its power.
Feeling the golden dragon's restlessness, Lin Chen had a thought and released the golden dragon from his body.
At this moment, hundreds of meters high above Lin Chen, a hundred-meter-long Five-Clawed Golden Dragon appeared.
Endless light power was released from the golden dragon's body. It let out a roar toward the sky, and its dragon might caused the Spirit Beasts of the entire forest to prostrate themselves.
