“[You really have hidden your strength, but it doesn’t matter, become my mud puppet.]
When facing the giant whale, the Sea Mud King was on the defensive, but Tang Xian was different.
His body was so small compared to the sea beast that the Sea Mud King was confident it could lock Tang Xian in place instantly.
Tang Xian did not resist, and when the strange black mud prepared to envelop him, he suddenly felt as if his sea of consciousness was somehow connected to the Sea Mud King.
This feeling was all too familiar.
Tang Xian had only been taking a gamble, not expecting it to actually pay off.
“It seems my luck isn’t too bad after all.”
When the scene in front of him completely changed, he found himself in a resplendent church, with peculiar sea creatures worshipping a spherical statue.
Dolphins were singing a religious chant, seemingly in praise of some deity.
And countless shrimp soldiers and crab generals were lined up on both sides, their movements uniform.
Tang Xian looked at this scene and laughed.
“Is this the illusion you’ve woven?
A grand cathedral with you as the god?”
The sound of Tang Xian’s voice suddenly made every noise in the church fall silent.
The Sea Mud King’s statue actually moved, and the muffled voice of the Sea Mud King could be heard, carrying a hint of incredulity:
“[Impossible, why can you still speak?]”
Tang Xian truly found it amusing.
The Siren had pulled him into an illusory space before.
And later, even a more terrifying Enforcer had done the same.
Even against an Enforcer, whom only the combined effort of beast gods could defeat, failed to trap him in a false world, so the Sea Mud King had even less chance.
Tang Xian twisted his neck and with a gentle gaze looked at the Sea Mud King, saying softly:
“Honestly, I quite miss this feeling.
Your mud must have some kind of linking effect, right?”
“[Impossible!
How can you still have your own thoughts.]” the Sea Mud King panicked.
“Not answering won’t do you any good, I can see through lies, you know.”
Tang Xian looked at the Sea Mud King with a smirk.
He was sure he was now in a forced connection with the Sea Mud King.
Once in the Sea Mud King’s world, all creatures would lose their previous memories.
Just like Tang Jing, who would forget the realities of the world once he entered the Levitating Islands.
And the new memories infused into their prey involved worshipping the Sea Mud King as a god.
With such memories, they would obey all orders from the Sea Mud King.
“[You have a strong will, but that changes nothing.
Outside, you were no match for me, and in here, I will be overwhelmingly powerful.
This is your dream, but until you completely submit to me, you will not wake up.]”
“I’m actually quite grateful to the Siren.
As a child of order, he was annoying, but his ability has saved me several times, not just saving me, but also giving me the opportunity to turn the tables.”
The Siren too had once invaded Tang Xian’s sea of consciousness, like a bandit raiding a home, only to encounter a tough nut to crack.
Back in the day, Tang Xian’s strength in the spiritual realm wasn’t anywhere close to what it is now.
Tang Xian stretched lazily and asked:
“Have you ever had a nightmare?”
The Sea Mud King felt an inexplicable unease; this little fellow was just too calm.
Tang Xian was indeed very calm, which soon would not be the case for the Sea Mud King.
In the spiritual space, it could continuously summon the things that its opponent feared.
The Siren had done the same thing to Tang Xian half a year ago.
But when the Sea Mud King peered into Tang Xian’s memories, preparing to draw out what Tang Xian feared, it was terrified.
The sea might have plenty of creatures stronger than those on land, but however strong, how could they possibly be stronger than a beast god?
Even just some fragments of memories in the sea of consciousness, even mere intangible thoughts—the Enforcer, Sea God, Nether Phoenix, Galaxy, the judge—these terrifying beings were enough to paralyze the Sea Mud King with fear.
It could feel the formidable presence of these beings from parts of Tang Xian’s memories.
“[You…
you…
you you you…
who exactly are you?]”
“Don’t be scared, those are all things of the past.
People should live in the present and look forward.”
Tang Xian snapped his fingers, and all the illusions brought forth by the Sea Mud King vanished into thin air.
This control over the spiritual illusions made the Sea Mud King even more afraid—who was truly the master of this domain?
The Sea Mud King tried to make itself grow huge, but before it could think further, it saw a figure of Tang Xian in the space, dozens of times larger than itself, holding up the Sea Mud King with a huge palm and looking at it with an expression that said “little buddy, what’s going on with you.”
The Sea Mud King was completely overwhelmed.
“Aside from vitality, it seems I also have strong resistance in the spiritual realm, so unfortunately, now it’s my turn to trample on you.”
…
…
The Sea of Gods Arena.
The sea creatures were gradually becoming noisy because the sea mud beast and Tang Xian didn’t seem to have any intention of fighting.
They had been in the same position for hundreds of seconds.
In these hundreds of seconds, they could sense that both beings were still alive but there were no signs of a fight.
The sea creatures couldn’t understand what was happening.
The sea monsters sighed:
“Pity he picked such an opponent.
The Sea Mud King’s mental control is undoubtedly strong.
I fear he won’t even have the chance to beast-transform before being eliminated.”
The Red Emperor did not make a sound, just waiting patiently.
Compared to the restless sea creatures, the Red Emperor was like a calm and composed veteran hunter.
But the sea monster was somewhat anxious and said:
