Douluo Continent: From Internal Martial Arts to the Law of Heaven and Earth

The vital energy of heaven and earth within a radius of hundreds of miles was gathered by the great power of Tangshan's Soul Bone Technique and poured into his body.

The primordial energy of heaven and earth entered the meridians, but before it could be integrated into the flesh and blood, it was directly divided up by several major consumers of primordial energy in Tang Shan's body, becoming resources for their growth.

The three external soul bones and the remaining eight soul rings readily absorbed the massive influx of energy.

Soul rings and soul bones can be improved through cultivation. The maximum lifespan of a soul ring is one million years. If all nine of my soul rings are one million-year soul rings, how will my strength change?

As Tang Shan's mind raced, he felt the rapid increase in the age of his soul rings and soul bones, and his heart grew increasingly calm.

……

A milky white light clung to Gu Yue's fair palm, while in the girl's other hand lay a palm-sized piece of silver-gray metal.

“I have already mastered the rules of creation, and I have also grasped the rudimentary concept of creation. Imbuing metal with intelligence may still be a bit difficult, but giving it the most basic intelligence is not a problem.” As Gu Yue’s voice fell, she gently pressed her palm down, and milky white light surged directly into the metal.

A faint spirituality is conceived within the metal; though it lacks the function of thought, it forms the basis for the birth of life.

……

Time does not change according to individual will; before we know it, another year has passed and spring and autumn have changed.

The Douluo Continent was engulfed in war. The Heaven Dou Empire swiftly seized the territory of the Star Luo Empire with overwhelming force, and all resistance from the Star Luo Empire was in vain.

Our Sea God is receiving his inheritance on Sea God Island, thinking he will be able to turn the tables after becoming a god, but little does he know what terrifying and powerful enemies await him in the future.

Meanwhile, in Tangshan, who was researching soul tools on the Sun and Moon Continent, his cultivation had finally reached a certain limit, and a fundamental change was about to occur.

The almost tangible spiritual energy that used to gather around him every day no longer converged today; instead, soul rings of the same color emerged from beneath his feet.

A terrifying pressure emanated from his body and spread outwards. Wherever the pressure passed, space crumbled inch by inch, as if the entire world could no longer contain his existence.

Opening his eyes, the unique mysteries of the rules of power flowed and circulated within his brilliant golden eyes. Once one met his gaze, one would inevitably be deeply attracted by the profound mystery of those rules, and even completely fall into their trap.

P.S.: Only one chapter today; there's an explanation earlier.

Chapter 568 Nine Million-Year Soul Rings

Pale gold, pale gold, pale gold...

Nine pale gold spirit rings rose one after another from Tang Shan's feet. With each spirit ring that appeared, Tang Shan's aura would surge several times over.

By mastering this soul skill, Tang Shan gained the ability to actively cultivate the age of his soul rings very early on. However, he had previously devoted himself to improving his soul power level and hadn't paid much attention to soul ring cultivation.

Now that his soul power level has reached its peak and there is no way to advance further, he has time to turn back to cultivating his soul rings.

After this period of cultivation, the lifespan of most of my soul rings has reached the human limit of one million years, and the effects of my soul skills have also undergone earth-shattering changes.

His aura crushed the space around him, shattering it inch by inch. Tang Shan calmed down and carefully analyzed the improvement and evolution of his soul skill.

The first soul skill is perfectly mastered: control over the most basic substances that make up the body, and change at will;

Second Soul Technique: Heaven and Earth: Increases body size by 10000% and grants the physical attributes necessary to maintain that size.

The third soul skill, Immortality: As long as the most basic substances that make up the body remain, it can be powerfully reborn with the help of these basic substances.

Fourth Soul Skill: My Will is the Power of Heaven: Will is transformed into pure power, with the added effect of rule-based damage, which cannot be repaired by non-rules.

Fifth Soul Skill: Multi-line Thinking: Gain ten virtual consciousnesses, which can assist in thinking. Except for emotions, the thinking patterns of the virtual consciousnesses are exactly the same as those of the main body.

Sixth Soul Skill: Body of Power and Field of Power: Body of Power can amplify power without limit; Field of Power transforms power into a field that can envelop giant objects and then pick them up with one hand.

The seventh soul skill, Five Souls True Body, directly encompasses the effects of the second awakening of the five souls, increasing the overall power tenfold for a final amplification.

Eighth Soul Skill: Eye of Rules: All rules and even abstract concepts fall into the eye, allowing the ultimate power attribute to exert a stronger effect;

Ninth Soul Skill: The power of the next attack is increased by 100 times, with no side effects;

After Tang Shan's nine soul rings were upgraded to a million years, the effects of most of his soul skills were explosive, with the most significant changes occurring to his first soul skill.

What does it mean to directly grasp the most basic substances that make up the body? It means grasping them beyond the level of atoms and molecules. If he wanted to, it wouldn't be difficult for him to create the effect of a nuclear explosion with a single punch.

In particular, if the first soul skill is perfectly mastered, it can be linked with the second soul skill, Heaven and Earth, to first increase the size of the body and then compress the size of the body through the first soul skill.

Given the sheer density of Tangshan's body, one can only imagine the terrifying power he would unleash.

First Soul Skill, Perfectly Mastered, Activate! Tang Shan shouted inwardly, and his pale golden soul ring suddenly flashed.

As the effects of the rules were applied to his body, his consciousness penetrated deeper and deeper, passing through the surface of flesh and blood and even cells, and directly sensing the basic substances that constitute the human body.

Simply clench your fist, and all the basic substances are arranged in an extremely tight arrangement, with zero loss of power, and space is completely shattered in your palm.

Tang Shan didn't know how to describe this special state. His previously thought superior control of his physical body was so flawed and crude from the current perspective.

Now that we can control basic substances, what about the potential that was previously hidden in our bodies?

The moment the thought crossed Tang Shan's mind, his body changed accordingly. His originally immense potential seemed to flow away rapidly like a flood, transforming into nutrients that enhanced his body or rather, his fundamental substances, causing it to continuously evolve.

The foundation of Douluo Continent is different from that of my previous life. This kind of improvement in physical fitness, where potential is transformed into energy, can actually enhance the strength of the material that constitutes the foundation of my body. It's simply unbelievable.

In my past life, this would have been a special energy that could mindlessly enhance all aspects of a material's properties—it was utterly absurd. You see, the limiting factor in scientific progress is always materials. The reason technology strives for high precision and sophistication is because materials lack sufficient strength.

The thought arose and fell in just a few breaths, and the potential hidden within his body was completely transformed by Tang Shan. The substances that constituted the foundation of his body reached a certain perfection. Unless a higher level of energy intervened, his physical strength at this moment was his limit.

A higher level of energy? It must be the power of rules, but there's no need to rush that. Let's talk about it when we reach 100% understanding of the rules.

Composing himself, Tang Shan looked up and realized that he was in a spatial turbulence, surrounded by complete darkness.

However, apart from tearing his clothes to shreds, these spatial turbulences did not leave any wounds on his body, not even a white mark.

"This is the strongest body theoretically below the level of a god. It should surpass the flawless golden body of 20,000 years later. After all, the so-called flawless golden body is also about body training, while I directly strengthen the basic substances that make up my body."

While muttering to himself, Tang Shan erected a layer of soul power barrier, casually put on some clothes, and then simply took a step out of the dark space.

"Your Majesty, is Tang Shan alright?" Golden Crocodile Douluo frowned, looking at the spatial rift that had just healed, his face full of worry.

They were watching Tangshan cultivate peacefully when the space suddenly shattered. Before they could even react to what had happened, Tangshan was completely swallowed up by the broken space.

Hearing Golden Crocodile Douluo's question, Gu Yue didn't even look up: "Don't worry, he'll be back soon." Her gaze pierced through the shattered space, and Gu Yue saw that familiar and reassuring figure. The nine pale golden spirit rings that had been retrieved also left a very deep impression on her.

brush!

Tang Shan appeared out of thin air, looked at the group of Title Douluos, and gave an awkward but polite smile: "I'm sorry to have worried everyone."

……

Rumble!

The crashing waves and intense vibrations damaged the internal organs.

Pfft!

Tang San, whose jaw was clenched, suddenly changed his expression. The strength in his cheeks dissipated, and he opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, which was mixed with some fragments of internal organs.

"Congratulations everyone, the Tide Body Training is over. The fourth test will begin in half a month." Poseidon flashed past Tang San and the others, her light words drifting in the wind.

The Shrek Seven Devils couldn't wait to break free from the Silver Pillar. They tumbled and crawled until they finally landed on the beach, panting heavily.

The rest of the group were in relatively good condition, since they hadn't been targeted too much by Poseidon and Xiaobai, nor had they undergone Tang San's double body training.

Yu Tianheng looked up at the sky, gazing at the bright sun, and gently stroked the little rabbit in his arms, his pained expression gradually easing.

The third test is over, and the reward for the soul is revealed in its normal state!

A dignified and indifferent voice rang in Tang San's ears. He was first stunned, then overjoyed. There was no need for further explanation. He only had one soul, which was Xiao Wu's soul. With his soul manifesting normally, it meant that he could see Xiao Wu almost every day.

Before his elation had subsided, Tang San suddenly remembered something, abruptly sat up, ignoring the secondary injuries to his internal organs caused by the strenuous exercise, and turned to look in Yu Tianheng's direction, his eyes widening instantly.

Chapter 569 Xiao Wu's Questioning

Tragedy still occurred—Tang San gained Xiao Wu's soul restoration, while Yu Tianheng gained Xiao Wu's physical development.

The fluffy little rabbit that was originally lying on Yu Tianheng's chest grew rapidly after the reward from the divine test was given. Its soft fur also quickly shrank back. When the change stopped, Xiao Wu's delicate body was exposed naked in front of everyone.

Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun swore that they really didn't mean it, but the unexpected happened right next to them, so they had to be careful.

They couldn't help but glance at him a few times, and feeling the cold aura emanating from Tang San's side, they silently closed their eyes again, pretending to be tired and resting.

Tang San had no interest in Dai Mubai and the other two's little tricks. He stared at Xiao Wu, who was nestled affectionately in Yu Tianheng's arms, his teeth clenched so tightly that they drew blood.

"Xiao Wu, my Xiao Wu." Upon learning what his reward for the divine exam was, Yu Tianheng uncontrollably hugged the beauty in his arms tightly, tears welling up in his eyes, his voice choked with emotion.

The sound of the ocean waves, accompanied by Yu Tianheng's heart-wrenching sobs, echoed all around, creating an awkward atmosphere.

……

Spirit world

The two deities, the angel and the Rakshasa, stared in disbelief at what was happening before them, their lips moving several times, yet they were at a loss for words.

They just wanted to see what the successor of the Sea God was like, but they never expected that they would see such a grand spectacle as soon as they turned their eyes.

"I don't recall that the trials for the Sea God's divine position involved anything related to love, original sin, or emotions. Why put his successor through such torment?"

Even though the angel goddess had witnessed it with her own eyes, she still had some doubts about everything she had seen. She couldn't help but ask the Rakshasa god, with whom she had always been at odds, to see what insight this evil deity had.

Noticing the Angel God's somewhat subtle gaze, the Rakshasa God's face darkened: "Don't look at me with such strange eyes. I would never make things difficult for my successor. Even if I make my successor do evil, it would absolutely be in accordance with the rules and authority I hold."

"What's going on with the Sea God? He split a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast in two, giving the soul to his successor and the body to his successor's rival. What was he thinking?"

Rakshasa rolled his eyes in annoyance: "You're asking me? Who should I ask? I'm not the sea god, how would I know what he's thinking?"

It can only be said that Poseidon, the sea god, is really good at creating drama. We haven't seen how the sea god tested Tang San during the final divine test in the original timeline.

Whether it indirectly affects the angel's test is another matter, but just the test of desire in the Seven Emotions test alone shows how strong his ability to create drama is.

After all, the inheritance of the divine position was broadcast live to the rest of the Shrek Seven Devils, including Xiao Wu. If Tang San had been even slightly tempted at the time, their relationship would have inevitably changed. But Poseidon didn't think of that at all, or rather, he didn't care.

……

Blue-purple lightning shattered the dense array of Blue Silver Emperors, and Yu Tianheng, whose body had swelled considerably, charged out, unleashing his dragon might as he headed straight for Tang San.

Conflict was inevitable. When Xiao Wu was a rabbit, Tang San could barely maintain his senses and temporarily trust Yu Tianheng. However, after Xiao Wu transformed into a human, he could no longer tolerate Xiao Wu's physical body continuing to stay by Yu Tianheng's side.

"Yu Tianheng, give me back Xiao Wu!" Tang San roared, throwing out the Blue Silver Overlord Spear. Like a flashing blue meteor, it arrived in front of Yu Tianheng almost instantly.

Yu Tianheng remained silent, charging forward relentlessly, his body flowing with blue-purple plasma, resembling a thick suit of thunderous armor.

Boom!

Without any restraint or control, the immense blue-gold spear unleashed its power perfectly, shattering large pieces of scales on Yu Tianheng's right arm, but that was all.

Ultimately, the Blue Silver Emperor is a control-type martial soul with very weak offensive capabilities. Its ability to break through Yu Tianheng's defenses relies entirely on the quality of its Blue Silver Overlord Spear soul skill.

"Third Brother, please stop fighting, please stop fighting." Ning Rongrong stood to the side, her voice full of worry, but deep in her eyes, a hint of joy was overflowing.

"Again!" Ning Rongrong's shout was like a breeze passing by Tang San's ears, leaving no trace in his mind. His fifth spirit ring was activated again, and the phantom of the spear quickly solidified.

Just as the two were about to clash again, Tang San's sixth spirit ring, the one that housed Xiao Wu's soul, suddenly released a dazzling red light without being activated by spirit power.
