Douluo Continent Villain Simulator: Persecuting Qian Renxue at the Start

Chapter 5 Theoretical Announcement

Su Cheng's decision to leave the sect at this time was pre-planned.

Judging by the timing, it's about time for Ah Yin to sacrifice herself, Qian Xunji to be severely injured by Tang Hao, and then finished off by Bibi Dong.

The reason he chose this particular time was that he was unwilling to waste his energy trying to gain Qian Xunji's trust, since Qian Xunji was a man destined to die anyway.

Moreover, after the change of power, figuring out how to switch allegiance to Bibi Dong would be a troublesome matter.

With the address given to him by Ning Fengzhi, Su Cheng left the sect and first went to a bookstore run by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. After revealing his identity, he successfully met Yan Mo, the person in charge of the bookstore.

"Mr. Su, what kind of book do you wish to publish?"

Yan Mo naturally knew that Su Cheng had now left the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but he was just an ordinary businessman who knew best how to seek profit and avoid harm, and he still spoke with great respect.

"It's about cultivation." As Su Cheng spoke, he took out some information he had prepared in advance from his soul tool.

However, he only included the method for absorbing the first and second spirit rings across time limits; he wanted to save the rest for fishing.

Yan Mo quickly reached out and took it, appearing respectful on the surface, but inwardly he was somewhat unconvinced.

In his view, Su Cheng's mere 0.5 level of innate soul power meant that, if it weren't for his privileged background, he might not even have been able to reach level ten by now. For someone of his caliber to dare publish a book on cultivation was utterly laughable.

I was thinking I could just give him a perfunctory answer and see him off.

However, after reading the general contents, his expression changed drastically.

"Mr. Su, we regret that we cannot comment on this."

Why?

"This..." Yan Mo stammered for a moment, but couldn't come up with a reason. He just refused very firmly.

Su Cheng had actually anticipated this situation. While extending his right hand, he said, "Don't worry about publishing it. I will go to the Spirit Hall later to have my soul power level assessed."

At this moment, a broken sword covered in cracks floated silently above his right hand.

But this martial spirit is not the key.

The pale purple second spirit ring nearly blinded the bookstore owner.

Su Cheng understood that the other party was simply worried that the contents of the book were untrue and that they wouldn't be able to bear the consequences if something went wrong.

This is only natural, since these theories have essentially broken the rules of martial spirit cultivation that have been in place for thousands of years in the Douluo Continent.

It doesn't rely on talent or aptitude, nor does it require consuming precious, high-age soul bones. The only cost is stimulating a few acupoints for a short period of time and applying some inexpensive medicinal liquid.

"You...this...I..."

Yan Mo glanced at the broken sword spirit, then at Su Cheng, then at the book in his hand, and finally rubbed his eyes before fixing his gaze on the second spirit ring, whose light was not dazzling.

"Now you can believe what I wrote, right?" Su Cheng said calmly. "It describes a method for absorbing the first and second spirit rings across time limits. I'm a successful example. What do you think?"

As the head of a bookstore under the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and having spent most of his time in the bustling city of Tiandou, Yan Mo, despite his low cultivation level, possessed considerable knowledge.

The more this was the case, the more shocked he became.

He hesitated for a long time, unable to speak.

Seeing that he hadn't recovered yet, Su Cheng continued, "After this part of the cultivation materials is released, I won't take a single penny of the profit. I only ask that you keep the price as low as possible and focus on small profits and quick turnover."

"Are you really going to make these methods public?"

Yan Mo's gaze towards Su Cheng changed completely at this moment.

If the previous superficial respect was due to his adoptive father, Sword Douluo Chen Xin, then now it is entirely because of his ability to break through limits and his selfless dedication.

"Of course, I'm a good person." Su Cheng looked a little impatient. "Are you willing or not? If not, I'll go talk to another company."

This is the advantage of being born into a privileged family.

If he didn't have Sword Douluo as his backer, even if he researched this kind of method, he wouldn't have had the chance to promote it at all, and he might even be in mortal danger.

If they're lucky, they'll be placed under house arrest by a major sect, leaving them no room for maneuver.

"You can tell Ning Fengzhi about this, but don't let it affect the speed at which I publish my theory." Su Cheng glanced at Yan Mo and warned, "Otherwise, if you switch to another sect, or even go to the Heavenly Dou Royal Family, I think this method will have plenty of opportunities to be promoted."

"Of course, of course..." Yan Mo's expression hardened upon hearing this, and he suppressed his original thoughts.

Just kidding. Why should I, the head of a bookstore, concern myself with the affairs of these high-ranking figures? If I were to accidentally get involved, I might not be able to withstand the aftershocks.

After finalizing the book publication details, Su Cheng arrived at the Spirit Hall branch in Heaven Dou City.

The order of events is also important. Although Qian Xunji and Bibi Dong may not be able to take care of themselves at this point in time, it is always better to be cautious.

To exaggerate a bit, this could be considered an innovation that could, to some extent, overturn the cultivation system of Douluo Continent.

Moreover, different people have different physical constitutions. For those with better aptitude, even with this method of ring gathering, it's uncertain how high they can theoretically raise the first spirit ring's limit.

Even in the imperial city of the Heaven Dou Empire, the Spirit Hall is the building with the strongest presence.

"Halt!" The guards standing in front of the hall stepped forward to stop them.

"Hello, I'm here to have my soul power level assessed."

After being allowed to pass by the guards, Su Cheng entered the Spirit Hall branch of Heaven Dou City.

Looking at the imposing and spacious hall before him, the orderly layout, and the large number of guards in the branch halls, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly, this was truly the number one power in the world.

Overthrowing it is easier said than done.

Comparing it to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, where he had previously worked, there is absolutely no comparison between the two.

One is the inheritance of a family's martial spirit, and the other is to recruit talents from all over the world. This alone makes the two different levels.

"You are... Mr. Su from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?"

Su Cheng turned around and saw a female receptionist from the Spirit Hall. He didn't know how she recognized him.

"I am no longer a disciple of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School," Su Cheng calmly retorted.

"Yes, I'm sorry." The receptionist smiled apologetically and then asked, "Is Mr. Su here at the Spirit Hall today to have his spirit power level assessed?"

She had just noticed that Su Cheng was preparing to go to the Soul Power Assessment Hall.

"Yes."

"Please release your martial spirit and spirit rings first."

Su Cheng nodded, making no attempt to hide his broken sword martial spirit and two spirit rings.

"Second Ring Grand... Soul... Master..." The female receptionist's voice was somewhat distorted.

"What is this?" She pointed to the purple second spirit ring, looking puzzled.

"Oh, I've developed some tricks that can help Soul Masters absorb Soul Rings across age limits."

"All Soul Masters?!" The receptionist looked at Su Cheng in surprise.

"All Soul Masters." Su Cheng nodded, "However, this currently only applies to the first and second Soul Rings. We have some ideas for the third Soul Ring, but we can't be completely certain yet."
