Douluo Continent Villain Simulator: Persecuting Qian Renxue at the Start

Chapter 346 Martial Soul City, the Su Siblings

As a sacred place in the world of Soul Masters, Wuhun City is not completely closed off; it is open to Soul Masters from all over the continent for a period of time each year.

However, ordinary Soul Masters who wish to enter or leave the city must undergo rigorous scrutiny and state their reasons for doing so, and they cannot linger in the city for too long.

Su Cheng and Su Yue had just successfully passed the city gate guards' inspection and entered the city.

Although they were quite talented, their cultivation level was limited and they posed no threat to Martial Soul City, so they did not attract much attention.

Walking along the road, the young men and women remained silent, heading straight towards the Pope Mountain deep within Wuhun City.

Su Cheng pondered what he had just learned from Su Yue about the origin and mission of the Imperial Auspicious Beast, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, and its important significance to the Soul Beast race.

Ten thousand years ago, there were two humans on Douluo Star who, through the power of destiny, achieved the powerful positions of Angel God and Sea God, breaking through the limitations of the plane and leaving behind two important legacies on this planet.

These two divine positions are extraordinary even in the realm of gods, where powerful beings abound; they are deities second only to the God-King level.

Since then, the rampage of evil spirit masters on the continent has ceased, and the endless seas have remained calm, giving humanity a long period of respite.

Five thousand years ago, the power of destiny shifted, and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion Emperor Beast was born in the Star Dou Great Forest. During this period, the power of the elite among the soul beast races grew rapidly, significantly balancing the power gap between humans and soul beasts. At the same time, no new gods emerged among humans.

According to Su Yue, the secret of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's power of destiny lies hidden in its third eye on its forehead.

However, the power of "destiny" is extremely mysterious and not the authority of the Dragon God, so the information she knows about it is very limited. However, the power of destiny on the Three-Eyed Golden Lion is only the power of destiny of the small plane of Douluo Star, and it will not affect any beings above the god level in the slightest.

Therefore, Su Cheng planned to wait until his own power reached the threshold of the god level before going to see what kind of situation that auspicious beast was.

His body has gradually matured, and his strength is rapidly increasing along with his physical growth. A rough estimate suggests that in another three to five years, he should be able to return to god-level strength.

Beside Su Cheng, Su Yue, who was half a head taller than him, also remained silent as they walked side by side.

However, while he was methodically thinking about the next steps, the girl's heart was somewhat in turmoil.

All sorts of thoughts grew haphazardly like weeds: worry, confusion, frustration, bitterness... just like a real human being.

Su Yue felt that something was wrong with her.

It seems that without realizing it, she has become a little too dependent on the man beside her.

Why is this happening...?

Is it because of the insecurity that comes with losing power after undergoing a transformation and rebuilding?

Or was it due to the immense pressure exerted by the gods of the divine realm?

Or perhaps the person beside you has a unique and special identity, and possesses the bloodline and power of the Dragon God hidden within them?

It can't just be a habit formed over the past few years...

She herself couldn't understand it.

This has never happened before.

But there was no reason for something like this to happen before.

Who can be her equal, or even teach her how to do things?

Who is qualified to teach her?

In terms of strength, even though he was severely injured, the Silver Dragon King was still invincible on Douluo Star.

In terms of experience, she possesses some of the foundation laid by the former Dragon God, and she is adept at using various elements.

In terms of seniority, she is the bloodline source of countless soul beasts and martial souls on this continent, an ancestor-like figure.

Even Di Tian, ​​the former patriarch of the Black Dragon Clan, who was incredibly powerful, was still completely suppressed by her in terms of status...

At this moment, Su Yue suddenly felt a little regretful.

I regret choosing the path of transformation and rebirth, and I regret spending the past few years by this person's side.

She felt like she was no longer the person she used to be...

With their own thoughts, the two did not linger in the outer city area for long and soon arrived at the Papal Palace Square in Wuhun Mountain.

"Halt!"

The leader of the Temple Knights, clad in silver armor, blocked their path, while behind him, a hundred Temple Knights simultaneously raised their longswords.

"This is a forbidden area; unauthorized personnel are not permitted to approach."

Seeing that the two children standing in front of them were not very old, and both of them were good-looking and strong, the guards of the Spirit Hall did not speak harshly.

Of course, it was impossible to let the two of them continue forward.

"My lord, my sister and I are Soul Masters from commoner backgrounds with impeccable family records. We have long admired the Spirit Hall. Over the years, my sister and I have made some progress in our cultivation, so we wish to join the Spirit Hall and serve His Holiness the Pope."

As he spoke, he gestured to Su Yue beside him with his eyes, and the two of them simultaneously revealed their martial souls and soul rings.

Su Yue's martial soul is, of course, still that beautiful and powerful silver dragon.

Around the silver dragon, colorful halos shimmered—colors formed by the spontaneous convergence and coordination of the surging elemental forces that roam freely in nature.

What's even more astonishing is the combination of spirit rings revealed beneath her feet. Apart from her first spirit ring being a thousand-year-old purple ring, all the other spirit rings are jet-black ten-thousand-year-old spirit rings!

This was because when she advanced earlier, she only focused on breaking through her bottleneck and didn't put too much effort into her spirit rings. Otherwise, with just a slight adjustment, her first spirit ring could also have been upgraded to the ten-thousand-year level.

On the other side, a huge martial spirit also appeared behind Su Cheng.

This time, however, it was not the golden mist that had been shown to Qian Renxue before, but a dragon-shaped beast spirit similar to Su Yue's.

The difference is that his martial soul is not a silver dragon, but a black dragon martial soul that looks extremely similar to Di Tian's original form.

He and Su Yue joined the Spirit Hall as siblings, so it would be more believable if their spirits matched.

It would be troublesome to make him create a dragon-type martial soul that he had never seen before out of thin air, so he simply used the original body of Di Tian, ​​which he had seen before, as a template to fabricate the story.

Anyway, nobody here knows Di Tian.

Five spirit rings also hovered beneath Su Cheng's feet, demonstrating the powerful strength of a Spirit King. However, the configuration of the spirit rings was obviously mediocre, consisting of only two yellow, two purple, and one black rings.

Looking at the powerful dragon-type beast spirits behind the two, their exceptional spirit ring configurations and levels, and their obviously youthful appearance, even the well-informed Spirit Hall guards were momentarily stunned.

But while I was surprised, I also felt a little strange.

If these two young men were of commoner origin, then the ceremony to awaken their martial souls should undoubtedly have been carried out with the help of members of the Spirit Hall. Since these two have such talent, why weren't they recruited into the local Spirit Hall branch at that time?

Besides the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, are there any other pure-blooded dragon-type martial soul inheritors who have been lost to the common people? And this girl, her soul ring configuration is too outrageous, how did she manage to do that?

However, although he was secretly surprised, it was not convenient to ask him for details at the moment.

No matter how outstanding one's talent, it's impossible to meet the Pope so easily.

The guard leader looked at Su Cheng and said bluntly, "Young man, you have great talent, and joining the Spirit Hall is certainly no problem, but not here."

"You can first join your local Spirit Hall branch. In fact, many Spirit Hall branches and sub-branches in various places have their own recommendation quotas. If you want to come to headquarters, the person in charge of your local Spirit Hall will submit your application."

"If you meet the standards, you will naturally be accepted into Spirit City. With the talent you have shown, there shouldn't be any problems. However, what you are doing now is against the rules."

"If all else fails, I can try to introduce you to the Spirit Hall's current elders, but whether they'll be willing to grant you an audience is another matter."

Although he refused Su Cheng's request, he spoke in an extremely polite tone and even offered to introduce him to an elder.

Many of the Soul Masters in the Spirit Hall are from commoner backgrounds, and the Spirit Hall has always been very tolerant of talented Soul Masters.

Not to mention the extraordinary level that Su Cheng and Su Yue displayed at this moment, which was truly rare, and Su Yue's soul ring composition was even more astonishing.

Upon hearing this, Su Yue silently withdrew her martial spirit without saying a word.

She knew Su Cheng must have his own plans.

Over the years, the other party has always seemed to handle everything with ease, so the current minor obstacle is certainly not going to be a problem for him.

Su Yue was right; Su Cheng knew all the rules of Wuhun City perfectly well.

Everything the guards said was true.

Unless you are the orphan of a member who has made significant contributions to the Spirit Hall, or the descendant of those core high-ranking members, you have to start from the bottom and work your way up to get into headquarters.

Of course, those with exceptional talent will be recommended by subordinate organizations to Wuhun City to enroll in the Wuhun Hall Academy.

However, the process cannot be disordered; one cannot simply come forward and volunteer without authorization.

There's nothing wrong with the Spirit Hall's system, and it can't be called bloated.

After all, nothing can be accomplished without rules. As a vast organization spanning an entire continent, if everything were done too arbitrarily, wouldn't it lead to chaos if everyone rushed to imitate it?

Today, it was only because Su Cheng and Su Yue displayed exceptional talent that they were able to do so; otherwise, they might have received some lessons.

Even so, Su Cheng still did it.

Su Yue put away his martial spirit, but it was still visible.

Although the appearance of the martial soul is that of the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian, ​​its aura is completely different from that of the real Di Tian.

Di Tian wielded the dark attribute, his aura powerful and domineering. In contrast, the black dragon martial soul behind Su Cheng exuded a strong aura of ominousness, evil, and chaos. This was not the power of darkness, but the power of evil.

The reason he chose to create such a black dragon martial soul is actually quite simple—

"Bang!"

At that moment, the doors of the Papal Palace burst open to the left and right.

The next moment, a woman dressed in a magnificent papal robe, holding a long-handled scepter, and with an absolutely beautiful appearance appeared at the entrance of the Papal Palace.

Against the backdrop of golden walls, she appears like a goddess descending to earth, dignified and unapproachable.

"Greetings, Your Holiness the Pope!"

Upon seeing Bibi Dong appear, the temple guards immediately shouted her name and knelt on one knee in salute.

"Rise."

Bibi Dong spoke casually, but her beautiful eyes were fixed on Su Cheng.

To be precise, they were looking at the evil black dragon spirit behind him.

That's right, that's Su Cheng's goal: to lure Bibi Dong out right here.

At this moment, the aura of the Black Dragon Martial Soul behind him was almost entirely constructed by imitating the power of Rakshasa as its core, and then superimposing the Death Spider Emperor and the Soul Devouring Spider Emperor as templates.

He knew Bibi Dong very well.

Before entering this simulation, Su Cheng had spent a whole year cultivating his soul with Bibi Dong.

This spiritual practice, which involves the fusion of souls, is even closer than physical union; it can be said to be a complete understanding of each other.

Moreover, even disregarding all that, the understanding they gained from the simulation of destroying the Sea God's legacy was enough to help him accomplish this task.

Although Su Cheng's true power is completely different from the true Rakshasa divine power, and does not possess that strong corrosive and polluting nature, it is still easy to deal with if one only wants to do superficial work.

His true strength now surpasses that of ordinary Limit Douluo, and he is only one step away from godhood. He sensed this as soon as he entered the city. Bibi Dong is currently staying in the Papal Palace.

He came to this square and revealed his martial spirit in front of many guards, not really to let these people see his talent and then let him go to see Pope Bibi Dong.

His true purpose was to make Bibi Dong sense the special aura emanating from her own martial soul, which was extremely similar to the power of the Rakshasa God.

Whether Bibi Dong approves of, is curious about, or dislikes this aura that is similar to hers, she will inevitably come out to take a look for herself.

Once they meet, there's naturally room for further action.

"Junior Su Cheng greets His Holiness the Pope."

Su Cheng glanced at the guards, then bowed slightly to Bibi Dong to show his respect.

Seeing this, Su Yue frowned slightly, but did not imitate his actions, remaining silently standing in place.

Unlike Su Cheng.

He never cared about such things and didn't think that bowing made him inferior.

Su Yue, however, could not accept this.

Not only that, she also disliked Su Cheng's actions.

"Su Cheng?" Bibi Dong silently sized up the two young men in front of her, not particularly bothered by Su Yue's rudeness, as many thoughts flashed through her mind.

After a moment of silence, she turned around and headed back into the Papal Palace, saying calmly, "I heard your wish just now. Come with me."

"Yes."

Su Cheng quickly agreed, then turned to Su Yue and said, "Let's go."

"..."

Su Yue first gave him a cold glance, then walked forward without saying a word, leaving Su Cheng completely bewildered.

What's wrong with her now? What did I do to offend her?
