Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Spinning Top, Explosive Warrior

Between the bookshelves are displayed treasures of various shapes and sizes.

There are gemstones that emit a faint glow, exquisitely carved jade artifacts, ancient bronzes, and soul bones contained in a transparent crystal box.

Wang Teng's gaze swept over the treasures without lingering.

He knew what he was looking for was here, but Wang Teng didn't know exactly where it was.

"Wang Teng, what exactly are you looking for?"

Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but ask again.

"Vast Ocean Universe Cover".

Wang Teng said in a low voice.

Ning Fengzhi frowned and asked, "That seems to be a defensive soul tool made by the Heaven Dou royal family, right?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Teng casually explained, "That's right. It's said that the royal family found a special stone on the beach and then used it to create a defensive soul tool."

Then he fell silent and began to search the treasure vault carefully.

Seeing this, Ning Fengzhi stopped asking questions and began to help him search.

After searching for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Wang Teng found it in a corner at the deepest part of the treasure vault.

It was a palm-sized transparent dome, crystal clear, as if it were carved from crystal.

The surface of the cover shimmered with a faint blue light, a soft and subtle glow that was easily overlooked if one did not look closely.

It lay quietly in a simple wooden box, without any markings or instructions, just like an ordinary handicraft.

But Wang Teng knew that this was no ordinary thing.

Vast Ocean and Universe Cover.

The treasure that Tang San obtained in the original novel later became a core component of the Sea God's artifact.

It possesses powerful defensive capabilities, capable of withstanding attacks at the level of a Contra-level monster, and can move freely underwater. It also has many unknown and amazing functions.

In the original novel, Emperor Xueye bestowed this treasure upon Tang San, who then used it to become the Sea God.

Now, Wang Teng wants to get his hands on the Vast Ocean Universe Cover first.

"This is it."

Wang Teng closed the wooden box and held it in his hand.

Ning Fengzhi glanced at the inconspicuous transparent cover, but couldn't see anything special about it. He didn't ask any further questions.

He trusted Wang Teng's judgment; since Wang Teng had chosen this item, it must have its value.

"Okay, this one will do."

Ning Fengzhi nodded and continued searching for the other two treasures in the vault.

He walked around and stopped in front of a row of gemstone shelves.

The shelves were filled with gemstones of all colors—red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple—each one exquisitely polished and radiating a captivating luster.

Ning Fengzhi reached out and picked up a ruby.

The ruby ​​was the size of a baby's fist, entirely crimson, and seemed to have flames dancing inside.

Ning Fengzhi held the gem in his palm, closed his eyes to sense it, and then nodded in satisfaction.

"This ruby ​​has the effect of enhancing mental strength."

Ning Fengzhi said to Wang Teng, "It's perfect for Rongrong."

Wang Teng nodded, having no objection.

Ning Fengzhi spent a long time choosing the third treasure.

He walked through the soul bone section and finally stopped at a row of shelves.

Ning Fengzhi took a 50,000-year-old soul bone, which was a right leg bone.

Soul Bone Skill is a skill for dodging.

This soul bone was chosen by Ning Fengzhi for Ning Rongrong.

"These three items will do."

Ning Fengzhi said to the maid who was leading the way.

The maid nodded, wrote down the names and locations of the three treasures in the book in her hand, and then led the two out of the treasury.

The steel gate closed slowly behind us with a dull thud.

"Let's go." Ning Fengzhi patted his shoulder. "Back to the sect, Rongrong and Zhuqing are still waiting for us."

The two boarded the carriage and slowly drove out of Tiandou City.

Inside the carriage, Wang Teng touched his storage soul tool, feeling the faint fluctuations emanating from the Vast Ocean Universe Cover inside, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

As the sun sets, its golden rays bathe the city walls, casting a warm glow over the entire city.

The wheels rolled on, carrying them toward the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Chapter 409 The Spirit Hall's Assassination

The Spirit Hall, the Papal Palace.

Bibi Dong sat on the high platform, holding a secret letter that had just been sent from Tian Dou City in her hand.

The letter was covered with dense handwriting, recording the recent dramatic changes that had taken place in the Heavenly Dou Empire.

Emperor Xue Ye passed away, and Xue Qinghe swiftly ascended the throne. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School publicly expressed its support for the new emperor, Ning Fengzhi personally stood up for Xue Qinghe, and the sect's disciples fully participated in the city defense and administration of Tiandou City...

"Qian Renxue's plan is going smoothly, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda has turned against them."

Bibi Dong tossed the secret letter onto the table, a meaningful sneer appearing on her lips.

"Hmph, it's not that simple."

Several cardinals and a Soul Warrior in charge of intelligence stood in the main hall.

Upon hearing the Pope's words, a cardinal stepped forward and cautiously said, "Your Holiness, perhaps the young master... used some special means to persuade Ning Fengzhi."

"After all, Ning Fengzhi is the young master's teacher, and there is a teacher-student relationship between them..."

"Teacher-student relationship?"

Bibi Dong interrupted him, her tone laced with sarcasm, and said, "I know Ning Fengzhi better than you do."

"He appears gentle and refined on the surface, but he is more shrewd than anyone else at heart."

"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has been established for so many years, what storms haven't we seen?"

"Ning Fengzhi would bind the entire sect to Qian Renxue's chariot just because of 'teacher-student relationship'? Dream on."

After speaking, Bibi Dong stood up and paced back and forth on the platform a few times, her brows slightly furrowed.

“Something else must have happened that made Ning Fengzhi make this choice.”

"Or rather, it forced him to make a choice."

There was a moment of silence in the hall.

A moment later, Bibi Dong suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at the Soul Douluo in charge of the search, and asked, "Is there still no result regarding the disappearances of Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo?"

The Contra officer in charge of intelligence had beads of sweat on his forehead. He lowered his head and said in a tight voice, "Your Holiness, I am incompetent and have yet to find any trace of the two elders."

"We searched all the towns, hotels, and forests along the way, and questioned intelligence personnel in various places, but we found no leads..."

"The two elders seemed to have vanished into thin air."

"Disappeared into thin air?"

Bibi Dong's eyes turned cold, and she said angrily, "Two Title Douluos, vanished into thin air? Do you think that's possible?"

Contra didn't dare to reply, and simply lowered his head even further.

Bibi Dong did not press him further, but turned around and her gaze fell on the map of the continent hanging on the wall of the main hall.

Her gaze started from Wuhun City, traveled north, crossed plains and mountains, and finally stopped at the location of Tiandou City.

"Chrysanthemum Douluo has disappeared, and Ning Fengzhi has defected..."

Bibi Dong muttered to herself, as if speaking to herself, yet also as if asking the others in the hall: "Could these two matters be related?"

The cardinals inside the hall exchanged glances, and one of them looked enlightened.

"Your Holiness, do you mean... the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School ambushed the two elders?"

The cardinal who had spoken up for Qian Renxue earlier asked tentatively.

Bibi Dong did not answer directly, but walked back to the platform and sat down again.

Her fingers tapped lightly on the armrest, making a rhythmic "tap-tap" sound that echoed in the empty hall.

"This possibility cannot be ruled out."

Bibi Dong slowly said, "After Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo left Spirit City, their final destination was Elephant Armor Sect."

"From the Spirit Hall to the Elephant Armor Sect, it's not actually that far from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's sphere of influence."

"If Ning Fengzhi had received advance warning and ambushed them along the way..."

"With the strength of Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, it is not impossible for them to take down Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo through a sneak attack."

"But Your Holiness, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Spirit Hall have always kept to themselves. Why would Ning Fengzhi take such a great risk?"

Another cardinal asked, puzzled.

Bibi Dong glanced at him but did not answer.

Because everything Bibi Dong said was just her assumption, and there was absolutely no evidence to back it up.

However, Bibi Dong didn't need evidence; she only needed to confirm one fact: that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had the strength to take down Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo.

"Besides Tang Hao being able to ambush them, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo are also quite capable..."

Bibi Dong analyzed in her mind.

"Pass the word down."
