Douluo's Spirit Pearl Divine Sword

Ning Rongrong's forehead flashed with light, and a magnificent trident was already in her hand. She leaped forward and swept it horizontally. Feng Tianlei tried to use his Qingfeng Shield to block, but it was useless. The shield was instantly shattered by the trident, and Feng Tianlei was sent flying along with it. It seemed that all the bones in his body had been cracked.

"What terrifying strength! This woman's strength is even greater than Jun Tianlin's during the Soul Hunting Operation back then." Feng Tianlei gritted his teeth and said, never expecting that he could not only lose to Tianlin, but also to his wife.

"Although my sect was prepared that day, dozens of people still lost their lives under your sword. Today, I will avenge them and wipe away their hatred in the Snow Dance Extreme Ice Domain."

With the power of her domain activated, Feng Tianlei proved too adept at escaping, so Ning Rongrong decided to first use her strongest ice-attribute domain to restrict his movements.

"Take this, Lishemu Qingtian!" Ning Rongrong brandished the Trident of the Sea God. Since she had not yet learned the Golden Thirteen Tridents of the Sea God, Tianlin taught her a set of basic Taoist long weapon martial arts.

There are five moves in total: Move 1: Dragon Soars over Mount Gushou; Move 2: Wind Follows the White Clouds; Move 3: Oak Tree Supports the Sky; Move 4: Dream of Clouds and Lands; Move 5: Chaos Opens the Heavenly Cave.

These can be considered the basic moves of long-weapon martial arts. If Ning Rongrong masters these five moves, she will surely achieve twice the result with half the effort when learning the Golden Thirteen Halberds in the future.

Two beams of light fell from the sky. Bibi Dong and Chen Xin had also sensed the powerful force here during their battle, so they immediately returned.

Both of them had minor injuries at this moment, and such a short time was simply not enough for the two Limit Douluos to determine a winner.

Bibi Dong had a very difficult time fighting Chen Xin. Admittedly, in terms of soul power cultivation and physical fitness, she, with her eighteen soul rings, was superior to Chen Xin. However, Chen Xin's swordsmanship was simply too terrifying. In terms of technique, she was almost completely suppressed throughout the fight.

Although she was very confident that with her immortality, she would still be the ultimate victor if the fight continued endlessly, it would still take at least ten days and ten nights, not even counting Chen Xin's physical disintegration, otherwise there was a possibility that the two of them would perish together.

Seeing Bibi Dong return, Golden Crocodile Douluo and the others retreated to her side. Gu Rong and Yu Yuanzhen did not chase after her, but retreated back to the city wall.

Ning Fengzhi withdrew all his support and knelt down abruptly. Supporting two Super Douluo at the same time had taken a huge toll on his soul power.

Oscar quickly offered him a sausage to help him recover; at this point, this was all he could do to help.

If he weren't afraid of revealing his ability to copy martial souls in front of Bibi Dong, which would allow Bibi Dong to guess the truth about Grandmaster's death, he wouldn't have been able to eat the Mirror Sausage for the time being. Otherwise, he would have even wanted to rush up and fight. With Tianlin's Demon Sword, he would have dared to meddle even in the battlefield of Super Douluo.

Bibi Dong looked at the corpses of her own Soul Masters scattered on the ground, and the Spirit Empire's army still being slaughtered behind her, and said coldly, "Good, very good indeed. As expected of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, you have inflicted such a crushing defeat on my Spirit Empire for the second time. But I hope you will not forget that the power of my Spirit Empire is far more than this."

Bibi Dong's meaning was clear: their Grand Elder Qian Daoliu, as well as the third, fourth, and fifth Elders, plus the Judgment Elder Qian Renxue, had not yet arrived.

Ning Fengzhi ate the sausage, regaining some of his soul power and physical strength. He stood up and laughed, "Don't forget, my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's true trump card didn't appear in this battle either."

His meaning was also very clear: their Tianlin hadn't arrived yet. As long as they didn't fight in the Hall of Worship, believe it or not, even if Qian Daoliu brought the other three worshippers and Qian Renxue together, they might not be a match for Tianlin.

That year, Tianlin was not idle. With the help of the Holy Spirit Domain, Oscar's Pearl Sausage, and the three major enhancements of the Ultimate Martial Soul, his cultivation speed was exceptionally fast, and he had already reached the high level of level ninety-seven.

After reaching level 95, each step is a step to the top. Back then, Tianlin at level 94 could resist Limit Douluo, and at level 96, Tianlin was even more confident in suppressing Limit Douluo.

Now, Tian Lin, at level 97, is unlikely to be defeated even if Qian Daoliu brings three elders with him, as long as they don't fight directly in the Divine Inheritance Ground.

"Fine, you win. Order a retreat!" Bibi Dong had no choice but to order a temporary halt to the fighting. If the battle continued, her army would be completely annihilated.

Adhering to the principle of not pursuing a defeated enemy, Ning Fengzhi waved his hand and ordered, "In that case, Gu Ran, sound the retreat!"

"Yes!" Gu Ran immediately sounded the retreat, and everyone on the battlefield quickly withdrew upon hearing this.

Ning Fengzhi didn't want to push Bibi Dong too far. Today's victory was already great enough; it was time to stop while he was ahead.

"Hey, Ning Rongrong, you've given the order to sound the retreat, why aren't you stopping?" Feng Tianlei shouted angrily when he saw Ning Rongrong still attacking him despite hearing the voice.

"I don't care, today I'm going to kill you, Dreamland Cloud Realm!" Ning Rongrong's Sea God Trident exuded a strong killing intent as she swung it toward Feng Tianlei. Actually, this move was more suitable for staff techniques, but the Sea God Trident could strike an enemy with 108,000 jin, which was an immense force for the people of Douluo Continent. Using a blunt weapon to attack was not out of the question.

With a single move, Feng Tianlei's martial spirit, the Wind Sword, was crushed by the trident, and his body exploded, turning into countless pieces of flesh.

The scattered bloodstains turned into ice cubes and fell as soon as they came near Ning Rongrong's clothes, leaving her completely untouched.

"Ning Fengzhi, what does your daughter mean by this?" Bibi Dong said angrily. Both sides had already withdrawn their troops, yet she still killed people without any regard for the consequences. This was simply too much.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, my daughter is spoiled by me, and it's common for her to disobey me!" Ning Fengzhi smiled helplessly, then changed the subject, "But so what? Bibi Dong, are you questioning me? Don't forget, you are the defeated side today, while we are the victors. Have you been in power for too long and lost your sense of the situation?"

Sword Dao Chenxin also raised the Seven Kill Divine Sword and said, "My granddaughter wants to kill a murderer who once stormed into my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and slaughtered people. This is a revenge act, which is reasonable and justified. Who dares to say anything? Bibi Dong, if you are not indignant, I will fight you again. Don't yell at my granddaughter."

"You really spoil her, huh? Very well. Remember this: the defeat in this battle will not affect the foundation of my Martial Soul Empire. I will definitely make a comeback in the future." Bibi Dong turned away angrily with her subordinates.

Thus, the battle to defend Tiandou City has temporarily come to an end, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has won its first battle!

Chapter 542 The Tianlin Army Advances into the Lima Plain

Today's narrow victory has brought jubilation throughout the entire Heavenly Dou City.

For the soldiers of the Heaven Dou Empire, being suppressed and beaten by the Spirit Empire for a whole year had been frustrating and they hadn't enjoyed the joy of victory for far too long.

In the palace, Princess Xueke stepped out of her room and heard the cheers of the army outside, but she did not smile at all.

What does winning the battle have to do with her? She's just a pawn, nobody wants her.

At this moment, she suddenly missed Tianlin and Xue Qinghe very much. Although neither of them were her real brothers, at least back then, the two brothers really loved her and treated her like a younger sister.

She fondly remembered those days when Tianlin wasn't the Saint Demon Douluo who turned the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace upside down, and Qian Renxue was still the kind and gentle Xue Qinghe. Being with them made her feel so relaxed and happy; even if the sky were to fall, they would hold it up for her.

"Big brother, Tianlin, are you both alright? Fate has played a cruel trick on you, forcing you two, who are so close, to fight to the death. There's nothing Xueke can do but pray that you two can survive this continental war."

Ning Fengzhi sent Gu Ran to the military camp to celebrate with the soldiers and reward the troops. From now on, Gu Ran will have more and more soldiers under his command. He must be both kind and strict, and while maintaining his authority, he must also earn the soldiers' heartfelt respect.

Ning Fengzhi himself stayed in his room, examining the map of the continent. Although the Spirit Empire had been defeated, it had not retreated. Today's losses were indeed considerable for them, but not enough to make them truly back down. The power of the spirit masters they controlled was simply too great, and they still maintained a strong force in the capital of the Spirit Empire.

Moreover, there are still four enshrined officials in the Hall of Worship who haven't made a move yet. Bibi Dong will definitely call for reinforcements, and the great battle will resume soon.

Inside the Spirit Empire's camp, Bibi Dong and the others listened to the battle damage report with grim faces.

On the military front, the entire 40,000-strong heavy cavalry regiment was wiped out, and the rear guard suffered 20,000 casualties under the charge of the Tiandou army's light cavalry, bringing the total to 60,000.

On the Soul Master front, the Elephant Armor Sect was completely wiped out, the Wind Sword Sect was completely wiped out, the Angel Legion was completely wiped out, and the three sects that assisted in the siege—Fire Leopard, Rock Antelope, and Black Tiger—also suffered heavy losses. The number of Soul Master casualties in this battle exceeded four thousand.

Moreover, those who died were not low-level Soul Masters; they included three Soul Douluos, nearly a hundred Soul Saints, and the rest were all Soul Kings and Soul Emperors.

Such losses would be catastrophic for other powers, and even for the Martial Soul Empire, they would be considered a devastating blow.

"Yue Guan, you secretly mobilized the Angel Legion to attack the city, fell into the enemy's trap, and caused our country to suffer heavy losses. Do you know your crime?" Bibi Dong said coldly, looking at Yue Guan kneeling on the ground.

Even without Ning Rongrong's yellow talisman of unknown origin, it definitely wouldn't have been a good time to make a move.

On the opposite front, there was still Title Douluo Qin Ming, Ning Rongrong, and several Soul Douluos from the Royal Fighting Team stationed there. In addition, the Po Min clan was suppressing the Elephant Armor Sect and the Wind Sword Sect. The Angel Legion simply could not break through. Even if they succeeded in a strong attack, they would inevitably suffer heavy losses.

The original plan was for Chrysanthemum Douluo, an extra Title Douluo, to clear the obstacles, and then for the Angel Legion to launch a surprise attack. In fact, the plan had already failed when Qin Ming appeared. If they had preserved their strength at that time, the outcome would have been uncertain. But all of this was ruined by Yue Guan's impulsiveness.

"Yue Guan knows he was wrong, but the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Royal Fighting Team are right in front of us. I can't forget the deep hatred I feel for Old Ghost, and that's why I was blinded by anger. I beg Your Majesty to punish me." Yue Guan didn't try to explain. He knew Bibi Dong well. The more he tried to argue, the angrier Bibi Dong would become.

Of course, admitting his mistake wouldn't save his life; it would only make his death quicker. Fortunately, now is a time when manpower is needed. If we are at odds with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, we can gain as many Title Douluos as possible. Golden Crocodile Douluo had just pleaded for Yue Guan's life, so killing him now would be of no benefit.

"Hmph, I will settle the score with Jun Tianlin for Ghost Douluo later. Why are you in such a hurry? Yue Guan, you disobeyed military orders and acted on your own. You should be executed. However, considering that you have served my Martial Soul Empire for many years and made great contributions, I will spare your life for now and remove you from your position as elder. Do you have any objections?" Bibi Dong was already being very merciful. If it were the original Bibi Dong, Chrysanthemum Douluo would definitely be dead by now.

However, he has only delayed his death a little. If he cannot redeem himself in the subsequent war, Bibi Dong will surely settle scores with him after everything has settled down.

"I have no objection." Chrysanthemum Douluo had long lost interest in any elder position. His only purpose in life was to avenge Ghost Douluo, and he was willing to sell his soul for this.

He had long prepared a scheme against Bibi Dong, but the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was not putting enough pressure on her yet, so he was waiting for Jun Tianlin to arrive.

At this time, Tianlin had led his army to take most of the Lima Plain without bloodshed. The reason was simple: the soldiers stationed there were all from the Luo family.

Because the Luo family father and son were 'poisoned', they could only survive if the Spirit Empire provided them with antidotes from time to time. Therefore, the Spirit Empire trusted them very much.

Inside Jialing Pass, news of the defeat of the Spirit Empire at the front line had not yet arrived, so the Ghost Leopard Douluo and the four members of the Ao family, Aldo, Orf, Orbai, and Ors, were drinking heartily without knowing the truth.

The four members of the Ao family were extremely excited. Once the Spirit Empire took over the capital of Heaven Dou, the Heaven Dou Empire could basically be declared destroyed. Bibi Dong had promised them that the future Heaven Dou Province of the Spirit Empire would be managed by their family. At this moment, they were looking forward to a bright future.

"Huh? Where are Luo Hengji and Luo Fuqi? Why haven't they arrived yet? Didn't I say we were going to have a banquet tonight? Do I need them to pour the wine? Do these two have a death wish?" Orff roared.

Since both of his ears were cut off, his temper has become increasingly violent over the years. He kills people at the drop of a hat, and his soul power has not improved at all. He was level 81 back then, and he is still level 81 now.

"Brother Ao, don't be angry. I've already sent someone to call them. Although they're just two dogs, they've still put in the effort, even if they didn't do anything. Remember to reward them with two bones later," Ghost Leopard Douluo said with a smile.

Faced with Ghost Leopard Douluo, even the most tyrannical Orf dared not be presumptuous and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty is right. After all, we are dogs of the Spirit Empire. It is only right that we should eat better than the dogs of other forces. This is to show the majesty of a great nation."

Ghost Leopard Douluo nodded in satisfaction, "Truly worthy of being the patriarch of the former number one clan of the Barak Kingdom, he is indeed sensible."

Chapter 543 Ma Hongjun Makes a Scene at Jialing Pass

A short while later, the Luo family father and son finally arrived, albeit belatedly.

They are different today than before; there is no feigned timidity, and they are even so arrogant that they walk with a swagger.

Behind the father and son were a man and a woman. The man had red hair and clothes, flames rose from his body, and he was handsome. The woman wore a purple dress and a short skirt and had a pretty face.

Upon seeing the girl, the brothers Aldo and Albee were immediately impressed. They hadn't expected the Luo family father and son to bring such a beautiful girl, far more beautiful than the one they had snatched from the Heavenly Dou Empire. She must have been specially presented to them.

Since this father and son are so loyal in trying to please them, it seems they might consider leaving a little bit of meat on the chicken bones for Loveki later.

As soon as the man in red entered the hall, he smelled the aroma of delicacies and couldn't resist. He randomly found a table and started eating heartily, ignoring the others present, his mouth covered in oil.

The girl in purple smiled helplessly, took out a handkerchief from her bosom and wiped his mouth. "Hongjun, why are you eating so fast? Are you very hungry?"

"Xiangxiang, you have no idea what I ate and drank every day in that scorching hell. I was practically eating dirt when I was hungry and chewing ice cubes when I was thirsty. A few days ago, we won a battle and were supposed to have braised fish, one for each of us, but before I could even start eating mine, Zhuqing snatched it away. She even said that I finally lost weight and that eating too much would cause me to gain it back, and that she was helping me. It seems she doesn't even have a boyfriend right now, but she's not afraid of gaining weight herself." Ma Hongjun said sadly, his resentment practically reaching the heavens.

Speaking of this, Bai Chenxiang was immediately filled with envy, "You know perfectly well that Zhu Qing's fat always goes to where it's supposed to go."

The two men's oblivious conversation enraged the Au family. Auerbai slammed his fist on the table. "How dare you! My grandfather and His Majesty Ghost Leopard haven't even allowed you to sit down yet, and you've already started eating on your own! And Luo Hengji, are the people you brought so rude? That little girl is here to serve me, isn't she? Get her over here, and then throw this redhead out."

“Big brother is right. Dog servants don’t deserve to eat meat. Giving them a bone is a reward.” Aldo, who was missing an ear, chimed in from the side.

Ma Hongjun's eyes turned cold. With two swishing sounds, a wing bone and a chicken leg bone were already in the mouths of the two brothers.

“Speaking of dogs, aren’t you just the dogs of the Spirit Empire? Here’s a bone for you,” Ma Hongjun said with a smile.

"You damned brat..." Ors, the father of the two, was about to start cursing when he saw his son being wronged.

But then there were two more swishing sounds, this time the chicken's head and its rear end, which landed in Orff and Ors's mouths respectively.

Upon seeing this, Ghost Leopard Douluo, who had been merely watching the show, immediately became alert. The previous Orbai and Ordo were alright, just two pieces of trash, but Orf and Ors were a true Soul Douluo powerhouse.

Now he couldn't even dodge a chicken head and a chicken butt. In fact, the speed at which the boy threw the chicken head was so fast that even he couldn't see it clearly.

This person is a master whose strength is no less than his.

"Luo Hengji, aren't you going to introduce him? Who is this person?" Ghost Leopard Douluo, though already on guard, still tried to remain calm.

"Your Majesty Ghost Leopard, these two are my son's friends. They are also the younger brothers and sisters-in-law of the leader my son previously recognized. The boy in red is named Ma Hongjun. He once participated in the Soul Master Competition, but his appearance is somewhat different now, so you didn't recognize him. The girl in purple is named Bai Chenxiang. She is the eldest daughter of the Min Clan. You have met her before, but you may not remember her. And they both come from..." Luo Hengji paused, then said the last five words with a playful expression, "Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!"

"What?! The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!" Ghost Leopard Douluo almost instinctively activated his Martial Soul, after all, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was the Spirit Hall's biggest and strongest opponent. "Luo Hengji, you actually dare to collude with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School? Don't you want the antidote anymore?"

Luo Hengji calmly took a sip of fine wine. "First, I am not colluding with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. From the very beginning, I have been a member of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. As I just mentioned, the leader my son has recognized is His Majesty the Holy Demon Douluo. Fu Ji is also the only son of my Luo family. Since he has chosen to follow His Majesty the Holy Demon Douluo, how could I, as his father, choose anyone else?"

"Secondly, the number one poison soul master and the number one alchemy soul master are both in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. What makes you think I still need the antidote from your Spirit Empire? Speaking of which, in order to complete the plan, I've been pretending to be a coward in front of those bastards from the Ao family for so many years. Today, I can finally hold my head high."

Luo Hengji snapped his fingers and ordered, "Fuji, go and file a complaint!"

"Yes, Father." Lovki immediately understood and ran to Ma Hongjun's side, crying, "Third Brother Hongjun, you must stand up for me! The way those guys from the Ao family have bullied me these past few years is outrageous..."

"Don't worry, we were delayed by having a meal. The rest of you should have already eradicated the forces belonging to the Spirit Empire in Jialing Pass. Now it's time for me to get to work." Ma Hongjun stood up after finishing his meal. "Beatling my boss's underlings is bullying my brother. Ghost Leopard Douluo, the four bastards from the Ao family, let's settle this. Today I'm going to get justice for my brother."

Upon hearing this, Ghost Leopard Douluo was jolted awake. Oh no! He should have realized this sooner. Ma Hongjun couldn't have come here alone. With the help of the Luo family father and son, the entire Jialing Pass was probably already completely in the hands of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. No, not just Jialing Pass, but the entire Lima Plain, and perhaps even the former territory of the Silves Kingdom.

His guess was correct. The Immediate Plains were already in Tianlin's hands, and Tianlin had also personally set off to retrieve the Kingdom of Silves. To ensure efficiency, he only sent a few people to Jialing Pass, but that was enough.

The main force of the Martial Soul Empire went to the front line. The only ones who could fight in Jialing Pass were Ghost Leopard Douluo and his son Ors Orff. Even the three of them combined were no match for Ma Hongjun, who possessed a divine artifact.
