Douluo Continent: From Seven Treasure Glazed Tile to Crescent Moon's Solemnity

Chapter 321 Legendary Resilience | Solar Flare

Ning Feiliu followed the Heaven Dou Empire's large contingent into Wuhun City, but still failed to complete the mission and receive the reward.

Perhaps they wanted to witness the scene inside Wuhun City in greater detail.

Upon entering Wuhun City, Ning Feiliu began to carefully observe his surroundings. He discovered that the hexagonal Wuhun City was actually built around a hill.

On this hill stand two very prominent buildings.

The building halfway up the mountain is the most magnificent; it can be clearly seen even from this distance.

It was a completely columnar structure with a dome, and the building's exterior was covered with a golden material that shimmered in the sunlight.

That was the brand-new Papal Palace, where Bibi Dong, the current Pope and the supreme ruler of the Spirit Hall, resided.

From Ning Fengzhi's words, Ning Feiliu also learned a deeper layer: the Elder Hall of the Spirit Hall was also located within the Papal Palace.

Of course, ordinary people would never be able to meet those elders.

The other building is located at the top of the hill. It is much smaller than the Papal Palace, about one-third the size. The building structure is somewhat similar, but its exterior is as white as jade and is far less eye-catching than the Papal Palace.

Since entering Wuhun City, every Soul Master has had a special feeling, as if a sense of piety has been added to their hearts.

Ning Fengzhi told Ning Feiliu that the building that looked much smaller was the highest-ranking entity in the Spirit Hall, the Douluo Hall.

This place is reserved for deceased Title Douluos and can be considered their burial ground.

The reason for the pious atmosphere here is not because of the Papal Palace, but because of this Douluo Palace.

No matter where the Papal Palace is built, the Douluo Palace will be built alongside it, and the Douluo Palace will always be located at a higher position than the Papal Palace.

During every major ceremony, the Pope would personally go to the Douluo Palace to pay homage, but even he had no right to enter the Douluo Palace before his death.

These are the rules, rules that no one can violate; otherwise, they will be attacked by all the Soul Masters.

It was precisely because of the existence of the Papal Palace and the Douluo Palace that Wuhun City was called the Holy Land of Soul Masters by the Wuhun Hall after its establishment.

Of course, this is also the consensus of the vast majority of Soul Masters.

Shortly after seeing the Papal Palace and the Douluo Palace, Ning Feiliu suddenly sensed something, and then the small print appeared before her eyes again—

Witness the immortal legacy of the Sun Angel God in Martial Soul City, and receive the blessing of the Sun Star Spirit and the rune—Legendary Resilience.

The small characters shattered, transforming into two golden streams of power that flowed into his body.

Although both are golden powers, one is incomparably sacred, while the other is ancient, profound, and powerful.

A smile appeared on Ning Feiliu's face as he felt the new power he had gained within his body, the first of which was the rune that he cared about most—the legendary resilience.

He was naturally very concerned about another complete world rune, considering that he currently only had one foundation rune and one world rune.

Now that another world rune has been added, it's naturally excellent.

The legendary effect of resilience is... a 100% increase in one's own resilience against abnormal effects. This effect will continue to increase over time, meaning the longer you hold the rune, the higher your resilience will be.

The effect was naturally excellent, and Ning Feiliu couldn't help but wonder if this rune, combined with Atreus's indomitable will, could help him resist the erosion of his mental consciousness by the Dark Harvest, the cornerstone rune...

If it really works, then this rune is truly worth every penny.

However, increasing resilience is also useful to him, which means that skills with negative effects may become useless to him later on.

For example... the power of judgment of the Asura God. In the end, the power of judgment can be considered a negative effect. The power exerted by the gods judged by him will be restricted and greatly reduced.

If that's really the case, then even if Tang San inherits the position of the Asura God, he won't need to be afraid of anything.

After seeing the effects of the legendary resilience, Ning Feiliu then experienced another mission reward.

The blessing of the Sun Spirit.

The blessing from the Sun Spirit surprised Ning Feiliu. The first blessing was the power of solar purification, which would purify all darkness and evil.

In other words, this reward gave him an effect similar to Tang San's use of the Trident of the Sea God to defeat Ghost Douluo in the original work, a special attack against dark attribute martial souls.

Directly eradicate darkness, purify darkness with the sun!

Moreover, this effect can also be applied to oneself. The negative effects he applies to Soul Masters with Dark or Evil attribute Martial Souls can be completely ignored in the future when combined with the Legendary Tenacity rune.

That's already incredibly impressive.

However, the blessing of the Sun Spirit has two other effects...

That is Eclipse Protection. After use, it increases your own defense by 300% and provides 50% damage reduction.

In other words, no matter what, even if the opponent's cultivation and strength are far superior to Ning Feiliu's, the effect of her attack will be reduced by fifty percent!

This defensive effect is already quite terrifying. Keep in mind that when Ning Feiliu used the Falling Light skill, her defense bonus was only 80% of what it is now.

The active effect of Eclipse Guardian is a 300% increase in defense and a 50% damage reduction...

If you're really into something extreme, Ning Feiliu could definitely consider going up and engaging in hand-to-hand combat.

Secondly, there's the final effect – zenith solar flare!

Summon the sun to unleash its power, releasing a beam of sunlight that strikes enemies on the ground, purifying and stunning them.

In other words, if the opponent is a Soul Master with the Dark attribute, they will be purified on the spot.

Soul Masters who are not of the dark attribute are affected by the forced dizziness caused by sunlight.

The power of this skill is comparable to the summoning of the three demigods, and although I haven't tried it, the range of this zenith solar flare probably won't be small...

Ning Feiliu was in a very good mood after receiving the new reward.

He then obediently followed the arrangements made by Wuhun City. Wuhun City assigned them to a cardinal, and under his leadership, the group of more than two hundred people were quickly settled in a hotel on the west side of Wuhun City.

To everyone's surprise, even the staff in the restaurant were all Great Soul Masters with at least level 20 Soul Power.

It's important to understand that it's absolutely impossible for everyone in Heaven Dou City to be a Soul Master, let alone a Great Soul Master.

This means that most of the low-level staff in Wuhun City have cultivation levels similar to Yu Xiaogang's.

Then Ning Feiliu learned something else: the participating teams from the Star Luo Empire had indeed not yet arrived in Wuhun City!

Logically speaking, the competition is scheduled to start in three days, so it would be best to arrive in Wuhun City as soon as possible to rest and recuperate.

However, the participating teams from the Star Luo Empire have not yet arrived, thus basically confirming Ning Feiliu's conjecture...

Tang San was targeted by the Spirit Hall because of the exposure of his twin martial souls and the Clear Sky Hammer, and they planned to ambush and kill him on the way!

It remains to be seen whether Tang San, now without the protection of the three—Sword, Bone, and Poison—will be able to escape unscathed due to the difference in allegiances.

Ning Feiliu really hoped that the Spirit Hall could get rid of Tang San, however... things didn't go as planned.

On the last day before the competition began, the Star Luo Empire's participating teams still appeared, but it seemed...

The Star Luo Empire's army escorting these contestants looked rather desolate, with many knights injured, some even with severed limbs, clearly having gone through a fierce battle.

To Ning Feiliu's disappointment, Tang San and Shrek Academy were both fine; if not completely unharmed, they at least appeared to be unscathed.

He looked a little weak, but Tang San's second awakening of the Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul surprised Ning Feiliu.

Her beautiful and delicate face made Ning Feiliu's expression turn strange.

Now that's settled, Third Brother has really become Third Sister.

Dai Mubai was still the same lame tiger, and beside him was a tall woman with short hair who looked somewhat similar to Zhu Zhuqing. She was obviously Zhu Zhuqing's real third sister, Zhu Zhufeng.

The others haven't changed much; Ma Hongjun still looks like a sleazy little fat guy.

Presumably, without the Phoenix Sunflower, his evil fire deficiency is still being suppressed by the old methods, which is why he seems somewhat weak.

When Tang San and the Shrek Academy noticed Ning Feiliu's gaze, they also looked at him with considerable resentment, remembering their past grievances.

Ning Feiliu showed no fear of them, only glancing back indifferently.

However, he was still very curious that Tang San was able to survive in such a situation where there was no chance of him escaping unscathed; he must have had some luck.

This is mainly because, although the Star Luo Empire did not have any titled Douluo accompanying them this time, they did send a thousand elite warriors to escort the Star Luo Empire's team to the competition.

The Star Luo Empire's military strength far surpasses that of the Heaven Dou Empire. These thousand battle-hardened elite knights, when coordinated, are no different from an army of ten thousand.

In addition, although the Star Luo Empire's accompanying experts did not include any Title Douluo, there were Soul Douluo experts from the Star Luo royal family and the Zhu family. When the two of them used the Martial Soul Fusion Skill Netherworld White Tiger together, their strength was equivalent to that of a Title Douluo.

So they withstood the first wave of attacks from Wuhun City until Ju Gui and his companion appeared, at which point the situation became somewhat out of control, and the Star Luo Empire's army suffered heavy casualties.

Moreover, upon hearing that all that was required was to hand over Tang San, the Star Luo Empire's forces were somewhat shaken.

They had no reason to fight to the death for Tang San, but Dai Mubai and the two Soul Douluo powerhouses from the Star Luo royal family and the Zhu family still insisted on disagreeing.

Dai Mubai disagreed naturally because Tang San was his "brother" and his "partner".

He has always been loyal and devoted to his brothers and was unwilling to give them up, so naturally he was unwilling to agree.

As for the two Soul Douluo powerhouses from the Star Luo royal family and the Zhu family, it was because of Tang San's talent—his twin martial souls and his second martial soul, the Clear Sky Hammer—that he now submitted to the Star Luo Empire.

When Tang San grows up, he will be the Star Luo Empire's greatest asset in attacking the Heaven Dou Empire!

Those are twin martial souls!

Tang San's talent was destined to become the strongest late-game talent of his father, so the emperor of the Star Luo Empire won over the hearts of his people before setting off and sent his distant cousin from the royal family to protect Tang San.

However, with the appearance of Chrysanthemum and Ghost, it was no longer something that the two Soul Douluo powerhouses from the Dai and Zhu families could protect them from.

After all, they are both martial soul fusion skills. Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo both have them, and their cultivation is higher than yours. Who can you beat?

However, at this moment, a mysterious powerful figure appeared, defeated Chrysanthemum and Ghost, and then escorted Tang San and the others all the way to Wuhun City before disappearing without a trace.

However, his martial spirit revealed itself to be the Clear Sky Hammer...

This is certainly not Tang Hao, but Tang Hao's older brother, Tang Xiao.

The reason for this was that after Tang Hao went to the Spirit Hall to die, Tang Yuehua was heartbroken and told her elder brother Tang Xiao about it.

Tang Xiao was also deeply saddened, after all, that was his younger brother.

Moreover, judging from the original storyline, he might be the only high-ranking member of the Clear Sky Sect who doesn't hate Tang Hao, and even tries his best to get Tang Hao and his son Tang San to acknowledge their ancestry.

Now that his younger brother Tang Hao is dead, he feels that this matter can be put to rest. As Tang San is the son of Tang Hao and Ah Yin, he can't bear it, so he comes out to protect him secretly.

It should be noted that Tang Xiao currently possesses level 97 soul power. Although he doesn't cultivate the Great Sumeru Hammer like Tang Hao, he doesn't have the ability to fight beyond his level.

However, his mastery of the Clear Sky Sect's ultimate techniques, including the Nine Absolute Techniques of Clear Sky, the Sky-Piercing Strike, and the Clear Sky Body Protection, was enough to allow him to defeat Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo.

Indeed, that was the case. Tang Xiao nearly severely injured Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, and then the two of them ran away with the rest of the Spirit Hall.

That's how Tang San narrowly escaped death.

However, Tang Xiao did not speak directly to Tang Sanming. Instead, he disappeared, escorting Tang Sanming and his group to Wuhun City from a distance before vanishing again.

This incident enraged the Spirit Hall and Bibi Dong, but they were only angry for a moment.

Especially Bibi Dong, if she really wanted to deal with Tang San, she wouldn't have just sent Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo in the original work, and she wouldn't have retreated so easily.

How could she not know that the three sword-bone-poison trio had arrived from the Heavenly Dou Empire?

Knowing this, it's hard not to suspect that she was just putting on an act.

After the Star Luo Empire arrived smoothly, the Star Luo Empire's participating academy was arranged to rest on the other side of Wuhun City. In effect, the Wuhun Hall had divided the participating teams of the two great empires into two camps.

The participating teams from both empires had no objections to this. There was still room for compromise between the two empires and the Spirit Hall, but there was nothing to compromise between the two empires themselves.

This is also a consensus on the Douluo Continent. No one expected that the Spirit Hall would later transform into an empire and become the greatest enemy of the two great empires.

But at that time, no one knew this.

The finals of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Tournament will begin the next day!
