Douluo: Son of the Stars

Chapter 75 Return to the Sect for Discussion
Tong Rui woke up and summoned two martial spirits one after another, but did not find any white lines.

Calm down and feel it carefully. The murderous aura is released along with the mental power, forming a huge area.

"The first of the Nine Tests of Shura. Use the Shura Sword to kill the blood-red nine-headed bat king and pass the Hell Road. The time limit is one year. Pass. After the first test, Shura's affinity increased by 5%. The current overall level is 5%."

After nearly eight months, Tong Rui unexpectedly completed his training in the field of Killing God ahead of schedule and successfully obtained the inheritance of Shura God King.

He carefully felt the soul power in his body. Taking into account the soul bones that were 67 years old, his own soul power was as high as level 5. In just eight months, it had increased by levels.

A flash of red light flashed between Tong Rui's eyebrows, and a voice sounded in the depths of his mind: "The second test of the Nine Tests of Shura, clean up the Killing City, the time limit is one year, through the reward of soul power to increase one level, Shura affinity increases by 5%."

"Clean up the Slaughter City? This is a bit difficult. The scope of this cleanup is quite large. You know, in addition to those fallen people, there are also poisons caused by the evil thoughts of the Rakshasa God in the Slaughter City. This kind of poison that has accumulated over the years is not something I can clean up, right?"

Tong Rui thought about it, and apart from the astrological attribute of the second soul skill and the soul guide, he couldn't think of any good method: "I will ask Tang Chen later. Now let's leave the Slaughter City first."

With every step he took, Tong Rui felt more relaxed. Thinking about meeting the beautiful Miss Angel soon, Tong Rui couldn't help but look forward to it.

As the news of Tong Rui's return to the sect spread, the situation on the mainland began to be stirred.

After returning to the sect, Tong Rui first went to visit his parents, then placed some unused soul guides into the sect's treasury and convened a sect meeting.

Tong Rui sat in the main seat, and on his left were Tong Qingtian at level 86, Dugu Bo at level 92, Shi Duantian at level 91, and Shi Xiaolong at level 81.

On the right are Mo Yun at level 75, Ye Manhua at level 81 and his husband Ye Xiong at level 85, and Lou Gao, a master craftsman at level 86.

Tong Rui spoke directly: "During the days since I left the sect, has there been any changes within the sect?"

Tong Qingtian said, "First of all, in terms of personnel, after the sect confirmed their identities, 523 disciples entered the inner sect. Currently, the total number of disciples in the sect is 1237. Last year, the sect's total income, excluding the expenses of the sect, Xingrui City, and major branches, net profit can reach more than three million."

Tong Rui thought for a moment and asked, "So which forces are targeting us?"

Such a huge amount of wealth has far exceeded the income of the old sects. Three million would take the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Sect at least three years to earn. This is just because the sect has just started and has huge expenses in all aspects.

If the sales volume of soul guides can be maintained in the future, this wealth alone will be enough to attract all major forces on the continent to attack.

"In the Tiandou Empire, the royal family seems to be very considerate of us because of Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, so we have not been targeted. The only disadvantage is that the market share has almost been taken by the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Sect, so our soul guides are the only profitable output."

Shi Duantian continued, "Also, for some unknown reason, the influence of the Tiandou royal family seems to be less than before, especially in some principalities. Our business has been completely targeted, and only slightly more advanced soul guides can be sold."

Shi Duantian relied on the channels left by the Black Tortoise Family to be mainly responsible for the business on the Tiandou Empire side. As for the Xingluo Empire, all business channels relied on the connections of the Jiuxin Haitang Family and the support of the Xingluo Royal Family.

So Ye Manhua continued Shi Xiaolong's words and said, "In the Xingluo Empire, our development is very unfavorable. The royal family's disputes have caused us to be targeted by some small forces in our business. Even some branches established in remote areas are robbed by some local forces." Tong Rui frowned and said, "Even if they are robbed or targeted, it must be instigated or disguised by some forces. In the final analysis, they have no sense of crisis and feel that our sect is not powerful enough to manage remote areas."

Tong Rui knew that his sect was weak, but he didn't intend to hold back his anger. The seven major sects and the Spirit Hall couldn't target me for the time being, and you, a chaotic royal family, wanted to harm me?

"Have someone from the branch deliver a letter to Davis, and pick out a rare soul guide to give to him, telling him that if the royal family disputes continue to cause losses to the Star Chamber of Commerce, then the Star Sect will stop all business with the Star Luo Empire."

Ye Manhua asked doubtfully, "Master, such an action would offend all the big and small forces in the Xingluo Empire, and it would be inappropriate to send a letter directly to the royal family to warn them."

"Davis is a guy with more ambition than strength. Sending the letter to him hints at the support of the Star Chamber of Commerce. As long as he takes the throne, the Star Luo Empire will be in chaos sooner or later."

"But we really can't put all our eggs in one basket, so we should also support the little prince Dai Mubai in the academy. We should sign a contract with him and let him support the Star Chamber of Commerce after he defeats Davis."

"Finally, be more secretive and secretly support some traitorous forces. The same is true for the Tiandou Empire. Secretly bribe a few principalities, and then completely occupy this area in the north to cause chaos between the two empires."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present frowned. Shi Duantian said, "Excuse me for being frank, Sect Master. You and Prince Xue Qinghe should have a very good relationship, but why do you want to split the Tiandou Empire?"

Tong Rui smiled and said, "You should know that no matter how many people-friendly products are made, the essence of soul guides is to provide combat props for soul masters. Only when everyone gets into chaos, no one can take care of the development of our sect."

"Besides, weapons sales are most convenient during chaotic times. As long as we can continue to provide better weapons, then between providing more advanced weapons and taking great risks to destroy the weapons supplier, anyone with a discerning eye will know which to choose."

"Regarding Prince Xue Qinghe, this is our secret agreement. We use the Tiandou Empire to expand our power, and he uses the divided empire to eliminate the rebels."

"I know everyone is wary of the existence of the Spirit Hall. Don't worry, they can't control the friction between the two empires for now. They will take action when a bigger dispute arises in the future, and by then our accumulated strength will be enough to deal with it. In addition, how about the training of blacksmiths?"

Lou Gao was inspired after hearing this: "Sect Master, my disciples and I have all acquired the strength of Spiritual Forging, and the Thousand Forging Blacksmiths have also trained dozens of people. Although blacksmiths on the mainland are limited by their qualifications and it is difficult for them to make progress, only those who choose the profession of forger in the sect will have the hope of advancing to Spiritual Forging in the future."

Tong Rui nodded: "Regarding the inheritance of forging, it cannot be revealed yet, so only the disciples trusted by the sect can learn. In addition, your cultivation should also be improved. You must know that with the progress of forging, it is difficult to see hope for the future without a title. You don't want to be a famous master craftsman on the continent, but you can't even see the threshold."

Then he put away his smile and said, "Finally, let's talk about the forging of battle armor. Although Senior Lou Gao can complete the spiritual forging, I still hope that you can do your best to learn the design. After all, whether your battle armor can be advanced to the second level depends on your own learning results."

"In the early years, I once told the team members about the idea of ​​forging battle armor. Although they don't know whether it was successful or not, as it is the most fundamental foundation of the sect, for the sake of safety, you must not reveal the truth to anyone."

When the meeting was over, Tong Rui looked at the distribution of the Star Chamber of Commerce on the map, as well as the targeted actions taken by various major forces.

Tong Rui looked at the sky and smiled: "It seems that you all want to wait until I develop a more advanced soul guide, and then a group of heroes will rise up. Haha, then I will drag all of you into the water and see who will have the last laugh."

I have done some simple research. A soul bone is worth a million, a storage soul guide is worth hundreds of thousands, and it would cost millions to build a branch. There are more than 100,000 soul masters on the mainland.
