Douluo: Ant Power Breaks the Sky

Seeing that the level he was standing on was not much different from those of the other three, Shi Yi was certain that he was receiving special "care" from the Sea God.

Shi Yi didn't care about these things. He only cared about whether he could make greater progress in the test.

Shi Yi felt that the stage where he was standing now was very suitable. The power of the Seagod's Light was very strong. It could quickly consume his soul power and allow him to enter a state of cultivation. At the same time, his physical strength alone could withstand the pressure brought by the Seagod's Light.

"The test is only 333 levels. The light of the sea god is like a huge vortex. It is easy to break through the vortex and reach the center with teleportation, invincible golden body and my own strength. But if I want to wrestle with this vortex and constantly wear it down or even devour it, my soul power quality and soul power control are still far from enough."

Shi Yi continued to practice his internal skills. When his soul power was exhausted, he sat cross-legged and continued to compress his soul power while practicing recovery.

In this way, Shi Yi walked and stopped, and soon he easily passed the three people.

Looking at Shi Yi strolling leisurely, Hu Liena and Shui Bing'er were very confused. It seemed that Shi Yi's test was a little different from theirs. They had to endure tremendous pressure every time they took a step, but Shi Yi felt very relaxed every time he climbed the stairs. However, Shui Bing'er discovered that every time Shi Yi climbed the stairs, there would be a considerable fluctuation in his soul power.

"Could soul power also be the key to passing the test?" Shui Bing'er thought secretly in her heart.

Thinking of this, Shui Bing'er mobilized her soul power and continued to climb upwards. Unfortunately, Shui Bing'er's soul power was extremely small in front of the light of the Sea God that illuminated the entire Sea God Mountain. A powerful repulsive force instantly bounced Shui Bing'er away.

Fortunately, Shui Bing'er also has the ability to fly. After circling a few times in the air, she landed back on the steps.

"No, when using soul power, although it will be easier to climb, if the follow-up force is insufficient, you will be bounced out like just now. Why can Xiao Yi walk so leisurely?" Shui Bing'er thought secretly in her heart.

It's a pity that Shui Bing'er's mental strength has not reached the level where she can sense the flow of soul power. If the light of the sea god is compared to a huge vortex, Shi Yi's unceasing operation of the technique is like a small vortex. The pressure brought to Shi Yi by the light of the sea god is unloaded by Shi Yi's soul power like water under the control of Shi Yi's powerful soul power.

When Shi Yi stops practicing, he will constantly circulate his soul power to relieve the pressure, but when Shi Yi breaks through, he will wrestle with the light of Poseidon, like a reef in the sea, constantly accepting the baptism and washing of the light of Poseidon.

On the other side, Tiandou City, Wuhun Temple.

"Two elders, Sarath requests to see you." A voice transmission sounded in the ears of Jue and Gui.

Their hearts skipped a beat, and they looked at each other. Yue Guan said quickly, "Come in."

Soon, Sarath walked into the room carefully.

Just as Sarath was about to bow, a ghostly, deep voice said, "No need. Tell us about the current situation of the fight."

Sarath nodded and said quickly, "As the two elders expected, Dugu Bo has indeed been in the palace frequently during this period."

The two looked at each other with extremely ugly expressions. Dugu Bo's frequent visits to the palace could only mean one thing, the fact that Emperor Xue Ye was poisoned could no longer be hidden, and their young master's flaws had been discovered.

Yue Guan nodded and said, "Keep an eye on the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and that thing..."

"Tang Sect." Sarath added quickly.

"Yes, Tang Sect, keep a close eye on them and report any movements." Yue Guan continued.

"Yes." Sarath bowed quickly and slowly left the room.

Yue Guan looked at Gui Mei and sighed slightly, saying, "I hope there won't be any unusual movements from the Qibao Liuli Sect and the Tang Sect. If it's just Dugu Bo, you and I can still hold off and let the young lady succeed to the throne. But if those two old guys Chen Xin and Gu Rong show up, we'll have no choice but to take the young lady away."

Gui Mei also nodded slightly and said, "You and I will split up. You go find Old Poison and cause him more trouble during this period. I will keep an eye on Tian Dou."

Yue Guan nodded and then disappeared.

Tiandou, the Fourth Prince’s residence.

"Uncle, our father has been poisoned. Even Senior Dugu can't do anything about it. What should we do?" Xue Beng looked at Xue Xing anxiously.

Prince Xuexing pondered for a moment after hearing this, and then slowly said, "Avalanche, I have a way, but..."

"But what...Uncle..." Avalanche asked hurriedly.

"Do you know that Xue Qinghe is already the crown prince, but he still wants to poison your father at this time?" Xue Xing looked at Xue Beng and said lightly.

A gleam of light flashed in Xue Beng's eyes when he heard this, but he quickly shook his head.

"Qibao and Landian were both wiped out by the Spirit Hall. If he becomes the emperor of Tiandou, he will become the most powerful emperor in the history of Tiandou."

"Now if you don't want to sit and wait for death, you only have one way, go find Ning Fengzhi and get his support. This is the only way for you to ascend the throne, but you will sacrifice a large part of your power, and Tiandou will become the same Tiandou as before. What do you want to do..." Xue Xing looked at Xue Beng and said lightly.

Xue Beng's Adam's apple could not help but move slightly, and he said to Xue Xing: "Uncle, what do you think?"

Xue Xing sighed slightly and said, "To be fair, I don't want Xue Qinghe to be the emperor. You had so many brothers back then, but now you are the only one left. That's why I brought you with me and let you hide. But I have to say that Xue Qinghe's methods are far better than yours. Maybe he is really more suitable to be the emperor than you."

The anxiety and panic on Xue Beng's face disappeared, and he looked at Xue Xing and said calmly: "So uncle, you plan to let an unknown person become the emperor of Tiandou."

"If I really wanted him to become emperor, you would have gone to Tiandou's border town to retire. I just feel sorry that this opportunity to make Tiandou great again has been lost. If he becomes emperor, he will be a real emperor. If you become emperor, you will be no different from your eldest brother." Xue Xing said lightly.

After saying that, Xue Xing looked at Xue Beng and said calmly, "Let's go to the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect."

Tiandou Palace, Prince’s Eastern Palace.

Qian Renxue stood in front of the window. A ghostly shadow swayed behind her. She didn't know when the ghost came out from the shadow.

"Miss." The ghost bowed slightly towards Qian Renxue.

"Why are you here?" Qian Renxue turned around slowly with some surprise and asked softly.

Gui Mei looked at Qian Renxue and said softly, "His Majesty knows that Miss has accelerated the progress, so he specially sent the two of us to pick her up."

Hearing this, Qian Renxue snorted coldly and said, "So she is sure that I will fail?"

Gui Mei bowed slightly to Qian Renxue and said, "We just received a tip that Xue Beng went to the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect. Tang Men and others should have arrived by now. I'm afraid your plan has already been exposed." Hearing this, Qian Renxue was shocked and asked, "Where is Yue Guan?"

"He went to contain Dugu Bo. If Xue Beng is willing to give up his rights and interests at this time, given Ning Fengzhi's character, he will support Xue Beng to take the throne without hesitation." Guimei said truthfully.

Hearing this, Qian Renxue hurriedly said, "Let's go to Xue Ye's bedroom and pass on my order. The palace is under martial law and no one is allowed to enter or leave."

"Yes." Guimei, Shelong and Cixue all bowed.

On the other side, thanks to the ancient banyan's spatial ability, Tang San and his companions did not encounter any obstructions. Ning Fengzhi and others arrived at the bedroom of Emperor Xue Ye in a dusty manner, and then they slowly came out of the space.

Soldiers covered in armor and holding spears blocked the way of the crowd.

Ning Fengzhi said to the soldiers seriously, "Get out of the way. We have an urgent matter to attend to His Majesty."

The leading soldier captain said coldly: "Your Majesty has already rested. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has ordered that no one can enter the palace to disturb you. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed without mercy."

At this time, Qian Renxue slowly walked out of the palace, looked at Ning Fengzhi and others with red eyes and said: "Teacher, the two seniors, Sect Master Tang, and my brother, why are you suddenly in a hurry to see the emperor at this time?"

"See Your Highness the Crown Prince." All the soldiers around him knelt down.

There was no one else behind Qian Renxue, and the three ghosts were hiding in the shadows.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, hello. We heard that His Majesty the Emperor was poisoned. We are here to treat the Emperor." Tang San bowed slightly to Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue's eyes were red, she sighed and said, "Master Tang is thoughtful, but just now, my father had a nightmare and died of fear for a while."

Upon hearing this, the surrounding soldiers all knelt down and shouted, "Your Majesty!"

Xue Beng stared at Qian Renxue for a moment, gritting his teeth and saying, "It's you!"

"Fourth brother, please don't talk nonsense. If you don't believe it, teacher, Sect Master Tang, and all the seniors can come in and verify it." Qian Renxue pretended to be helpless.

"Why else would you be here at this time?!"

"As the crown prince, my father's health is deteriorating, so of course I have to share his worries. I had just finished reviewing the memorials over the past few days, but I didn't expect that my father would pass away like this." Qian Renxue wiped away a few tears as she spoke.

At this time, Ning Fengzhi and others hesitated and looked at Xue Beng with wavering eyes. The conditions offered by Xue Beng were very generous, but if they helped Xue Beng here, Xue Beng would not be able to get the support of the nobles in the future, and Qian Renxue, who had returned to power, would re-examine them. What's more, in name, he, Ning Fengzhi, was still the teacher of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

"Teacher, do you want to help my fourth brother to abdicate?" Qian Renxue scolded with red eyes.

"Qinghe, we have no such intention, but the Fourth Prince said that His Majesty was poisoned and critically ill, so we asked Sect Master Tang, who is good at this, to come here." Ning Fengzhi said hurriedly.

Upon hearing this, Xue Beng and Xue Xing's expressions changed instantly. If what happened today turned into a farce, then their lives would be in danger.

"Teacher, Sect Master Tang, I understand that you were all bewitched by my fourth brother and the emperor's uncle. But now we are faced with a powerful enemy and the Spirit Hall is eyeing us covetously. Although my fourth brother may have provided you with generous conditions, you should also understand that if the interests of the nobles are harmed, the Tiandou Empire will fall apart in an instant. As long as I can ascend to the throne, I, your teacher, will support you without hesitation in fighting against the Spirit Hall. Now do you believe me or my fourth brother?" Qian Renxue said softly.

At this moment, Ning Fengzhi and Tang San were also confused for a moment. Politics is a matter of stance, and now is the time for them to choose sides.

"Master Ning, I can guarantee that His Majesty was definitely killed by the beast Xue Qinghe. We can't hesitate any longer." Xue Xing said hurriedly, and at the same time cursed in his heart: "Why hasn't Dugu Bo come yet?"

He had already left a backup plan when he went to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. If Dugu Bo came, they could at least escape safely.

"Teacher, a thousand-mile dike is destroyed by an ant hole. You must think clearly. Trust often collapses like this. Today you can choose fourth brother for some benefits, and tomorrow your partners may also abandon the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect for the benefits." Qian Renxue said softly.

Guimei and others who were observing secretly could not help but show relief on their faces. If Qian Renxue's psychological attack plan succeeded, their young lady would be able to turn the originally bad situation around in an instant.

Ning Fengzhi hesitated when he heard this. To be fair, the conditions offered by Xue Beng were very generous, so generous that he and Tang San could not refuse. However, what Qian Renxue said also made sense. He and Qian Renxue were master and disciple, and Qian Renxue was also willing to support them in their fight against the Spirit Hall.

"Master Ning, you must not be fooled by him. There are many doubts about his identity." Xue Xing said from the side.

"Uncle, I think you are getting old and confused. I have been with my teacher for so long, and my teacher knows me better than you can imagine." Qian Renxue said lightly.

This was a difficult choice, and Ning Fengzhi hesitated at this moment.

"Qinghe, can you let us see His Majesty?" Ning Fengzhi looked at Qian Renxue and said softly.

"Teacher, you should know what this means." Qian Renxue responded indifferently.

Ning Fengzhi's mind was as clear as a mirror at this moment. In fact, in his opinion, Xue Qinghe's identity was questionable, and killing his brother and father did not matter. Their Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect only needed an obedient emperor who was in line with the interests of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.

Ning Fengzhi sighed slightly and said, "I'm sorry, Qinghe, I will spare your life."

As soon as the words fell, an object suddenly flew out from behind Tang San, heading straight for the sky behind him. Suddenly, a red light shone brightly, accompanied by a sharp whistle.

Ning Fengzhi said softly: "Do it."

The moment Ning Fengzhi finished speaking, Chen Xin and Gu Rong suddenly flashed out, and Cixue, She Long and Guimei suddenly appeared in front of Qian Renxue.

Chen Xin and Gu Rong's expressions were stern, and their eyes were burning with anger for revenge.

"I only saw ghosts, but no spirit rings, Spirit Hall."

"Teacher, you really disappoint me." Qian Renxue said lightly.

Ning Fengzhi's expression was extremely ugly. He stared at Qian Renxue and said, "I should be the one to say this. Today I will seek justice for the 4,000 lives of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect."

"Fair? Was the way you treated me just now fair? Since you don't want me to be the emperor, is there anything wrong with me cooperating with the Spirit Hall?" Qian Renxue said lightly.
