Douluo's Spirit Pearl Divine Sword

The future continental wars will not be limited to battles between high-level soul masters. Tianlin wants the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to be invincible in every aspect.

"Thank you so much." Oscar said gratefully. After these days, he had basically let go of Ning Rongrong, but he still harbored some hostility towards Tianlin. However, he did not expect that Tianlin would not only not care at all, but would also take the initiative to help him hunt for a soul ring.

Compared to him, I am indeed a bit narrow-minded. No wonder Ning Rongrong only has Tianlin in her heart.

"Brother Jun, do you have any ideas? Although the Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent isn't very strong in combat, it's extremely fast, and its crest stores nutrients that allow it to fly continuously. It's definitely one of the most difficult soul beasts to capture." Tang San was a little worried about Tian Lin going alone. His plan was for everyone to go together. As long as they followed his instructions, he had a 90% chance of successfully capturing the Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent.

Unfortunately, Tianlin had no intention of following his orders. He wanted to do Oscar this favor all by himself. "Don't worry, Brother Tang, just watch. You saw my swordsmanship at the Great Soul Arena last time, right? Now I'll show you another of my unique skills."

After speaking, Tianlin took out several stones from his Ruyi Hundred Treasures Pouch. These were not ordinary stones, but array stones. Tianlin had already channeled the soul power needed to set up the array into them. With these stones, a simple array could be set up in a small area.

It's not very useful against advanced Soul Masters, but it's more than enough to deal with a thousand-year-old Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent.

Chapter 111 Tianlin Makes His Move: Tianxuan Maze and Shushan Talismans

As the crested serpent rapidly approached, it finally appeared before Tianlin and the others.

Tianlin stepped forward, arranged the seven array stones in a special position, and used his soul power to activate the array that had been set up in the array stones.

The Phoenix-tailed Cockscomb Serpent, unaware of the formation's mysteries, foolishly entered it.

At this moment, a strange scene unfolded. The crested serpent's path became unusually erratic. It turned around as if it had encountered a dead end, even though there was a main road in front of it. It crashed directly into a boulder in front of it, leaving itself completely disoriented.

"What, what's going on?" Oscar asked in surprise.

"Could this be an array?" Zhao Wuji had some guesses, because one of his colleagues was Lu Qibin, a control-type Soul Emperor, whose Star Luo Chess Martial Soul possessed a similar array-type Soul Skill.

However, Tianlin is clearly a power-attack type Soul Master, so how does he know such methods?

Tianlin smiled slightly. It was a success. Although it was his first time trying it, this simplified version of the Tianxuan Maze was barely a success. It was just a pity that the range was a little small and could only trap a few people.

The so-called Tianxuan Maze is a formation created by Qing Shi, one of the Seven Sages of Shu Mountain. Once his formation is set up, anyone who rashly enters will fall into a bizarre illusion with no chance of survival.

Tianlin's simplified version, weakened a hundredfold, certainly couldn't reach that level; it could only trap others for a short while.

"This is an illusion array. The scene that the Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent sees right now should be very different from ours. However, even I can't see through it this time." Tang San used his Purple Demon Eye, but he still couldn't see through the Tianxuan Illusion Array. However, he still managed to deduce it. "Brother Jun, you're planning to let the Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent perish in your illusion array, aren't you? What a clever trick!"

Tianlin shook his head. "Of course it's not that simple. Although it's possible to do it that way, it would be too time-consuming. I have a backup plan."

As he spoke, Tianlin took out two yellow talismans from his body and rushed to the side of the Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent. Because it was trapped in an illusion, the Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent did not sense Tianlin's approach at all.

Tianlin easily affixed the two talismans to its body. "Forbidden Spell Talisman, Seal; Body Binding Talisman, Freeze!"

The forbidden spell talisman and the binding talisman are talismans that imprison the soul power within the body and restrict physical movement, respectively. When used together, these two are extremely effective.

The most important reason why soul beasts are stronger than wild beasts is that, like human soul masters, they contain powerful soul power within their bodies. Therefore, as long as you seal their souls with a forbidden spell talisman and then immobilize them with a binding talisman, your opponent will become a lamb to the slaughter.

"The art of talismans! Brother Jun's sect actually possesses such a unique skill!" Tang San was shocked. In his previous life, there were indeed rumors of talisman techniques among Taoist sects, but those were just legends. This was the first time he had ever seen one with his own eyes.

"Wow, boss, is this also a unique skill of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School? That's amazing! Just two talismans and this Phoenix Tail Crested Serpent is completely still!" Ma Hongjun exclaimed excitedly. "Boss, if I join the sect, could you teach me this skill?"

"Of course you can, but if you want to learn, you can't be inconsistent. The effort required to learn the art of talismans is no less than that required for your Soul Master training." Tianlin really didn't mind teaching him, after all, he wasn't a true disciple of Mount Shu, so he didn't have as many sectarian prejudices as Tang San.

However, upon hearing that learning the talismans would take a lot of time, Ma Hongjun immediately deflated. "Then, forget it. I'd better focus on cultivating my soul power. I'll study these talismans when I become a Title Douluo and have more time."

Tianlin shook his head. Although Ma Hongjun was exceptionally talented, he was still too lazy. He lacked the determination, confidence, and patience necessary to become a strong person. It seemed that he would need to be properly trained in the future.

"Alright, Oscar, now you can do whatever you want with this crested snake. Do it!"

Tianlin called Oscar over, and just as Oscar was about to deliver the final blow to the Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent, a hoarse, aged voice rang out, "Stop!"

Immediately afterwards, two figures darted out of the woods, one old and one young, both women.

The old man looked to be in his sixties or seventies, with a full head of white hair that was neatly combed. Although he was not young, he was radiant and clearly possessed considerable skill.

She held a three-meter-long snake-head cane, and as she walked towards the crowd, her spirit rings began to rotate around her, two yellow, three purple, and one black. This person was a spirit emperor of level sixty-something.

The spirit rings pulsed, but her body remained unchanged, indicating that the old woman's martial spirit was the snake staff in her hand.

Beside her was a young girl, about sixteen years old, dressed in a purple outfit that hugged her beautiful figure. The girl was extremely beautiful, even slightly less so than Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing.

She also carried a snake staff, only slightly shorter, around two meters long, and had only two yellow hundred-year soul rings around her body.

Needless to say, this combination is exactly like the Snake Granny Chaotianxiang and her granddaughter Meng Yiran from the original novel.

"Hmph, six spirit rings!" Zhao Wuji sneered, immediately channeling his martial spirit and revealing seven spirit rings to the grandfather and grandson.

When the old woman saw the seven spirit rings pulsating on Zhao Wuji's body, and that they were the best configuration of two yellow, two purple and three black spirit rings, her heart sank. She did not expect that there would be a spirit saint here. With her husband not here, it would be difficult to get the Phoenix Tail Crested Serpent back today.

However, she still wanted to give it a try, hoping the other party would give her face. After all, the peerless dragon and snake duo was a well-known combination on this continent.

"Old woman Chaotianxiang, hello, esteemed Soul Saint, you cannot give the Phoenix Tail Crested Serpent to that child."

"Chaotianxiang!" Upon hearing this name, Zhao Wuji's initial disdain vanished. He thought to himself, "She's actually the Snake Granny from the Peerless Dragon and Snake Sect. She's easy to deal with, but the Peerless Dragon and Snake couple are always inseparable. If she's here, then Dragon Lord Meng Shu must be nearby as well."

Long Gong Meng Shu is an extremely powerful Soul Douluo, and he can use a Martial Soul Fusion Technique with Chao Tian Xiang, which is unstoppable by anyone other than a Title Douluo. Once Meng Shu appears, I am definitely no match for this couple.

Thinking of this, Zhao Wuji, unusually polite, said, "So it is Senior Snake Granny in person. I am Zhao Wuji!"

Chao Tianxiang's expression shifted slightly. "So that's where this young Soul Saint came from. It turns out to be the famous Immovable King of the Soul Master world."

While Chao Tianxiang offered flattery, he grew increasingly anxious. The Immovable King acted entirely on his own whims, even daring to offend the Spirit Hall. How could he possibly be afraid of the Dragon-Snake Clan? Without the Dragon Duke present, the Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent's spirit ring was likely to be lost.

Chapter 112 The Ownership of the Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent: Tianlin's Big Appetite

"I dare not accept such praise, it's just a bad reputation!" Zhao Wuji said with a fake smile. "I haven't been active in the world of Soul Masters for a long time. I'm currently living in seclusion and teaching at an academy. I came to the Star Dou Great Forest this time to hunt for the third Soul Ring for some of my students, and this Thousand-Year Phoenix Tail Crested Serpent just happens to be suitable for one of them."

Just as Chaotianxiang had guessed, Zhao Wuji did not give her face and directly gave up the Phoenix Tail Crested Serpent.

Chao Tianxiang frowned. "You mean, you have several students who have reached level 30, but what about these kids?"

With her keen eyesight, she could naturally tell that among the children, the oldest, Dai Mubai, was about the same age as her granddaughter, Meng Yiran, while the youngest was only eleven or twelve years old. But what was unexpected was that several of them had actually broken through to level thirty. Had they stumbled upon a den of geniuses?

"Hmph, so what if this Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent is suitable for your student? We were the ones who discovered it first and started hunting it. Give it back to me now." Meng Yiran was getting anxious. It was rare to see such a good soul ring, with its age and attributes perfectly matching hers. She couldn't possibly give it up.

The importance of level 30 is self-evident; a suitable third spirit ring has a significant impact on future achievements.

"You say you started hunting this spirit beast first, what evidence do you have?" Oscar, who also valued the spirit ring, immediately questioned.

"Hehe, young man, don't be anxious. Look at the snake's belly. Aren't there several wounds? Those were inflicted by my cane. If it weren't for its excellent ability to escape, it would have died at my hands long ago." Chao Tianxiang pointed to the snake's belly, where there were indeed several wounds, each one fatal.

This proves that what Chao Tianxiang said was true, so it's reasonable for them to ask for the soul beast. Zhao Wuji looked at Tianlin, who had subdued the Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent, and his eyes suddenly lit up. "Sister Chao, actually, I didn't subdue this Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent. It was this young friend from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School who subdued it. He's a friend of one of my students, not a student of my academy. I can't command him. Since the two of you subdued this serpent, why don't you discuss its ownership yourselves?"

Zhao Wuji is quite clever in shifting the blame. He can't afford to offend you peerless dragons and snakes, but can you peerless dragons and snakes afford to offend the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?

Sure enough, the Snake Granny's expression changed upon hearing the name of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. That was a sect a hundred times more powerful than her Dragon-Snake Clan.

Tianlin smiled slightly. This Zhao Wuji seems rough and rough, but he is quite thoughtful. That's good. He can do Oscar a favor. Besides, he has long had his eye on the Gaishi Longshe couple.

However, they actually dared to use his sect as a pawn. We should remember this debt. Next time, we should talk to Grandpa Bone or Master and Zhao Wuji again. Grandpa Eagle's heart is really not hard enough.

"Young man, so you were born into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. May I ask your name?" Chao Tianxiang asked.

"I am Jun Tianlin, and I pay my respects to Senior Snake Granny."

"Jun Tianlin! You are the direct disciple of Sword Douluo, Sword Lord?" Chao Tianxiang exclaimed in surprise. Now this group of people could not be touched. Even if her husband came, it would be the same. One Chen Xin would be enough to turn their family into ashes.

"Since it's Sword Lord himself, let's call it quits for today. Sigh, Yiran, let's go!" Chao Tianxiang sighed and pulled Meng Yiran away.

"No, this is my spirit ring, I will never give it up." Meng Yiran stubbornly shook off her grandmother's hand and stepped forward, saying, "Even if you are from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, you can't be unreasonable. Since both sides have contributed to capturing this snake, how about we have a fair fight according to the rules of the spirit master world, and the winner gets the spirit ring?"

"No." Tianlin shook his head.

Seeing this, Meng Yiran's eyes filled with tears. "You've gone too far! So what if your sect is strong? I, Meng Yiran, will not accept this bullying!"

“Miss Meng, you misunderstand. I refused because the conditions you proposed are simply impossible to meet. The one we are hunting for this soul beast is Oscar, and he is a food-type soul master with a sausage as his martial soul. How can he fight you fairly?” Tianlin explained.

"What?! Food-type?" Chao Tianxiang exclaimed in surprise. The food-type was the most difficult to cultivate of all categories, yet this boy, slightly younger than her granddaughter, had actually reached level thirty. She doubted she could find another food-type genius like him across the entire continent.

Seeing an opportunity, she asked directly, "Young man, may I ask which sect you belong to? Are you also from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?"

“I don’t belong to any sect. Our dean said that my sausage martial soul has mutated, which is why this is happening,” Oscar said, shaking his head.

"No sect!" Chao Tianxiang was overjoyed upon hearing this. Since he was not from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, she immediately had the idea of ​​poaching him. Wouldn't it be perfect if such a talented food-type soul master could come and assist her granddaughter?

Just as Chao Tianxiang was about to extend an invitation, Tang San seemed ready to step forward and fight in place of Oscar. At this moment, Tian Lin quickly grabbed him, saying, "Brother Tang, can't you see that Senior Snake Granny has feelings for Oscar? Don't cause trouble at this time, or you will ruin Oscar's future and marriage."

Without Tang San causing trouble, the Snake Granny finally said what she hadn't finished saying in the original story, "Young man, since you don't have a sect, after you graduate, would you like to consider coming to us? My granddaughter Yiran needs someone to assist her. If you agree, not only will we not fight over this Phoenix Tail Crested Snake today, but my husband and I will also take care of all your spirit rings from now on."

"Grandma, what are you saying?" Meng Yiran said with dissatisfaction. Her grandma wasn't recruiting anyone at all; she was setting her up on a blind date.

She glanced at Oscar furtively. She hadn't noticed before, but he was really handsome. He was almost as good-looking as the Sword Master, and he was such a genius. To be honest, he was indeed a good match for her.

Oscar blushed deeply at Snake Woman's blunt words. He had just broken up with his girlfriend. Was God compensating him by sending him such a beautiful girl today?

"This... um... I'm an orphan now, and I grew up in the academy. Such an important matter requires the dean's approval," Oscar stammered.

Snake Granny smiled slightly upon hearing this, "Alright, since that's the case, I'll go and discuss it with your headmaster later. You can absorb this spirit ring."

Oscar didn't directly refuse, which she interpreted as an agreement. Her Dragon and Snake family was powerful, and her granddaughter was so beautiful; she couldn't find any reason for the dean to refuse.

Ning Rongrong glanced at Tianlin strangely upon hearing this. She knew that Tianlin had been eyeing Oscar all along, and today he actually watched him being recruited by the Snake Woman and remained indifferent to having his prize snatched away. This was really not like him.

Little did he know that Tianlin had his eye not only on Oscar, but also on the Peerless Dragon and Snake Clan. If he could bring the Peerless Dragon and Snake Clan under his command, then Oscar, who had joined the Dragon and Snake Clan, would also be considered to have joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

This is what they mean by "only children make choices, adults want it all!"

Chapter 113 Tang San's Eight Spider Lances are Gone

Upon hearing the snake woman's agreement, Meng Yiran, too shy to stop her, took out her dagger and stabbed the crested snake to death. Oscar, without further hesitation, pulled out his dagger and killed the crested snake.

Then he sat cross-legged and began to absorb the soul rings.

This time, Snake Granny didn't rush to leave. She wanted to see what Oscar's martial soul was like. The most direct way to observe the strength of a person's martial soul is to see what kind of soul skills it can produce. If it's a useless soul skill, then it's completely worthless.

The Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent was not very aggressive, so the absorption of the spirit ring was exceptionally smooth. Oscar had completed the absorption in less than an hour.

His soul skill, just like in the original story, is the Flying Mushroom Sausage, which allows the user to fly at the speed of a Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent for one minute.

The Snake Granny was both surprised and delighted. The strategic significance of this soul skill was truly immense. If used on the battlefield, it could be extremely effective, whether for launching a surprise attack or for the army to retreat.

Even for ordinary team battle spirits, suddenly granting the entire team the ability to fly can have a remarkable effect on various tactical arrangements.

This child is a once-in-a-century genius in the food industry; she must bring him over to assist her own Yiran.

Since Tang San didn't intervene, and the soul beast wasn't stolen, but rather given away voluntarily by Snake Granny after she took a liking to Oscar, there was no animosity between the two sides this time.

Meng Yiran also admitted that Oscar's support abilities would be of great help to her in future battles and cultivation. In addition, Oscar's incredibly handsome face made her quite tempted.

The saying "Douluo Continent doesn't judge by appearance" is only half true. This is true for women with ordinary talent, but Meng Yiran is a young lady with good looks, talent, and family background.

A girl like her naturally has higher requirements. In the original novel, Tang San had an ordinary appearance before he awakened the Blue Silver Emperor, so he needed to show enough strength to attract her. Oscar's face, however, could completely skip this step.

"Alright, young man, congratulations on obtaining such a fine spirit ring. I still need to take Yiran to find other spirit beasts, so I'll be leaving now. Later, I'll find an opportunity to visit your Shrek Academy with my husband to discuss your matter. Farewell."

The snake woman bid farewell to everyone and left with her granddaughter.

"Please take care, senior." Oscar was extremely grateful to the Snake Woman for giving up her spirit ring, and he escorted them for a while before returning.
