“Xixi, I have to leave first…”

“I’ve made you wait for me for so many years and wasted so many years of youth. I’m sorry for you...”

 A few days later, after meeting Bo Saixi again, Tang Chen breathed his last breath due to physical collapse.

At this time, Tang Chen had no trace of the master's temperament. He was like a dying old man, full of death energy.

"Don't worry, I will be with you soon..."

Bo Saixi hugged the dying Tang Chen and comforted him.

She knew that Su Mo would soon complete the eighth test of the nine Poseidon tests, and then start the ninth test, which would not be far from when she would sacrifice herself.

　　In the past, Bo Saixi would still be unwilling to give in, but now that Tang Chen is here, she is no longer so unwilling.

 She was naturally still fearful and unwilling to face death, but when Tang Chen's wish was fulfilled, she no longer cared about life and death.

 “No… Xixi, you’ll be fine…”

Hearing Bo Saixi's words, Tang Chen was moved, but he didn't want Bo Saixi to end his life so quickly.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　–

 So immediately afterwards, Tang Chen summoned the Shura Blood Sword and floated it in front of the two of them.

 “…ahem…”

"Xixi, this Shura Blood Sword contains all my cultivation. When you start the ninth test of Poseidon, you can choose to sacrifice the soul power on this sword. Do not sacrifice yourself..."

Tang Chen's body collapsed, but his cultivation was still there.

It's just that his body couldn't recover, so Tang Chen sealed all his cultivation into the Shura Blood Sword.

He only thought of helping Bo Saixi after he learned that Su Mo was completing the Nine Poseidon Exams.

 He was already ashamed of Bo Saixi, so he didn’t want Bo Saisi to sacrifice himself because of other people’s divine test.

Had he not known Bo Saixi's character, he would have thought of persuading Bo Saixi to kill Su Mo directly. He was no match for Su Mo, but that was not necessarily the case for Bo Saixi who was on the sea.

And even if you can't kill Su Mo, don't sacrifice yourself. If Su Mo wants to start the ninth test of Poseidon, let Su Mo find a way to do it.

Of course, Tang Chen didn’t tell Bo Saixi any of this, because he knew Bo Saixi’s belief in Poseidon, and it would be useless if he did.

As for whether the Shura Blood Sword with which he had sealed his cultivation could be used as a substitute for sacrifice, he actually couldn't guarantee it, but he felt that he could still give it a try.

 It doesn’t matter if it fails anyway.

 He was grateful to Su Mo for helping him wake up and meet Bo Saixi.

But it was indeed Su Mo's attack that left him with very little life left. It could also be said that Su Mo killed him.

 So between Su Mo and Bo Saixi, he naturally chose to help Bo Saixi.

If Su Mo were his descendant or a disciple of the Haotian Sect, the situation would definitely be different.

 It’s a pity that Su Mo is not.

 “Xixi, promise me!”

 “Even if it’s for me, don’t give up your life...”

After Tang Chen said the last sentence weakly, he took his last breath completely, and his body gradually dissipated.

 Only the Shura Blood Sword was left.

 …

Su Mo was not clear about Tang Chen's death and his actions before his death, and did not pay attention to it.

However, he could guess that Tang Chen was almost dead.

He is not in a hurry to go to Poseidon Island to confirm. It will not be too late to go to Poseidon Island after the mainland is unified.

At that time, Tang Chen must have been completely dead.

Su Mo is busy unifying the continent now!

 In the previous war situation, it was because of the intervention of the Haotian Sect and other sect forces that the Star Luo Empire was able to breathe.

After all, with the addition of the Haotian Sect, the number of titled Douluo on the Star Luo Empire's side suddenly increased, and the top combat power was stronger than that of the Tiandou Empire without Su Mo taking action.

 It's just that except for the powerful Titled Douluo, the number of soul masters of other levels in the Tiandou Empire is relatively large compared to the number of ordinary soldiers, so the Star Luo Empire is unable to counterattack, so the war between the two empires will become anxious.

 Su Mo also wanted to advance to level 99 as soon as possible, so he didn't take action. Of course, another reason is to guard against the Spirit Hall.

 Because at that time, Wuhun Palace was still under the control of Pope Bibi Dong, and Pope Bibi Dong was Su Mo’s enemy.

Now that the Pope of Wuhun Palace has been taken over by Bibi Dong and becomes one of his own, Su Mo naturally doesn't have to worry about anything.

In the past few days, those forces that secretly defected to Wuhun Palace and the sect have come to do so under Bibi Dong's instructions, and the balance of combat power has further tilted.

Su Mo no longer plans to keep the Star Luo Empire.

 “I decided to take charge of the expedition myself!”

 “Zhao Wuji, I leave the army to you!”

Su Mo summoned Zhao Wuji and gave him instructions.

As if he was born for the battlefield, after Zhao Wuji defected to the Tiandou Empire, he was thrown into the army by Su Mo. Zhao Wuji showed his unparalleled talent as a commander, and was finally appointed by Su Mo as the commander of the Tiandou Empire. The commander-in-chief.

 “Your Majesty…”

 Hearing Su Mo's words, Zhao Wuji was shocked.

Zhao Wuji wanted to persuade Su Mo, but was interrupted by Su Mo before he could speak.

“As long as I am here, all enemies are just chickens and dogs!”

 “You don’t need to worry about anything else!”

Su Mo said domineeringly.

 “Yes, Your Majesty!”

When Zhao Wuji heard what Su Mo said, his expression was suddenly shocked and he quickly responded.

 His achievements today are all due to Su Mo.

 So as long as it is Su Mo's order, he will resolutely implement it.

 The army of the Tiandou Empire, under the command of Zhao Wuji, began to gather.

 Subsequently, a million troops marched directly towards the Star Luo Empire under the leadership of Su Mo.

 The Star Luo Empire quickly received the news.

“Is this a fight to the death in the Tiandou Empire?”

Emperor Xingluo was a little confused, and his expression looked very solemn.

“Since Tiandou wants to fight to the death, let’s fight!”

“With the Heaven Dou army gathered together, it’s more suitable for us titled Douluo to take action. Whoever wins will be determined by his own ability!”

 “That’s right, we can’t get it!”

“There are only a few titled Douluo in Tiandou, why should they fight us to the death?”

"Since Tiandou wants to die, then we will help them!"

　　　…”

The elders of Haotian Sect spoke out one after another.

“That’s true, but I’m afraid that Wuhun Palace is watching with eager eyes!”

 “What on earth do Tiandou think? Have they forgotten the existence of Wuhun Hall?”

Tang Xiao was not so optimistic and said worriedly.

“That’s right, if we fight to the death with Tiandou, we will definitely lose both sides in the end, and it will only be an advantage to Wuhun Palace!”

Emperor Xingluo strongly agreed with Tang Xiao's words. He was mainly worried about this.

“No matter what, let’s gather the army to meet Tiandou first!”

“If Tiandou really insists on his own way, then we can only accompany him to the end!”

　　　…”
