Douluo Continent: Building a Divine Kingdom Starting from the Spirit Hall

Leaving aside the two comrades-in-arms who had united on this front, on the other hand, Tian Hao found the two big shots of Qianjun Jiangmo and quietly left Wuhun City for the Heaven Dou Empire.

Since the Elephant Armor Sect is located within the territory of the Heavenly Dou Empire, any schemes they might have to be made in the heart of the Heavenly Dou Empire.

Of course, they didn't go directly to the Elephant Armor Sect, but instead wandered around the Sunset Forest.

"No? Did you go back to the Star Dou Great Forest?"

After briefly wandering around Sunset Forest a few times and seeing that the Blue Silver Divine Tree showed no reaction, Tian Hao guessed that Ah Yin must have left Sunset Forest.

As the Blue Silver Divine Tree transforms and generates life-giving power, its range of perception of life expands further, and it resonates with Ah Yin, able to sense her within a hundred miles.

If we can't sense anything in Sunset Forest now, it's highly likely that we've returned to Star Dou Great Forest.

I originally wanted to take this opportunity to get to know Sister Yin better, but it seems that's not going to happen now.

"Many soul beasts in Sunset Forest have broken through to the 100,000-year age limit and have been integrated, making it more difficult for outsiders to hunt them."

The Demon-Slaying Douluo was all smiles, and even the Thousand-Pound Douluo had a smile on his face.

They are happy to see the soul beasts united, since they no longer need to hunt for soul rings, and their need for soul bones has also decreased significantly. Naturally, the stronger and more united the soul beasts are, the better.

This would make it even more difficult for other Soul Masters to hunt Soul Beasts.

"Has the Elephant Armor Sect not yet sent any teams to Sunset Forest to hunt for spirit rings?"

While munching on his dry rations, Tian Hao inquired, "Although we are plotting against Xiangjia Sect, we cannot go there on our own initiative. We must create a chance encounter so that they will come looking for us, so as not to arouse suspicion."

"The Elephant Armor Sect doesn't have any, but the Elephant Armor Academy has a team that entered Sunset Forest half a month ago. They are all level 50 Soul Kings. This Soul Master Competition is going to be even more exciting."

Qianjun recounted the intelligence he had received a few days prior, and said he was just waiting for the team to return with the required spirit rings.

"What level of soul power are you going to reveal this time?"

The demon slayer asked curiously, explaining that according to the information they had received, stimulated by the new concept of the Soul Master University, all the advanced Soul Master academies were going all out, even using many sealed soul bones.

With the added influence of divine power, Soul Kings will likely become the main component of the participating teams' Soul Masters this time.

Especially those academies that have the support of sects or families, such as Elephant Armor Academy and Thunder Academy, all of them need to become Soul Kings.

“It’s no fun to bully the weak at the same level. It’s more impressive to defeat the strong with the weak. This time, I will sweep the entire competition with the Soul Sect.”

With a chuckle, Tian Hao had no intention of bullying weaker opponents; sticking to the Soul Master level, just like last time, was perfect.

"If this continues, more Soul Masters and families will research and create their own Soul Skills to bypass the limitations of Soul Ring and Soul Skill power, which may cause trouble in the future."

Qianjun Douluo is quite cautious. If this kind of stimulation continues, more and more people will embark on the path of creating their own soul skills, especially since soul master universities mainly teach this.

"Individual wisdom is limited, but collective wisdom is boundless. Our ultimate enemy is the gods of the divine realm, not those forces on the continent that have been playing house all along."

They created unique, self-developed soul skills with their own wisdom, which is equivalent to providing us with further nourishment and foundation. We will only grow faster than them, and faster and faster.

And if they keep standing still, what will we use to train our troops in the future?

With a confident smile, Tian Hao naturally knew that guiding and encouraging the Soul Master community to research and create their own Soul Skills would bring trouble and strengthen those aristocratic families and sects. However, compared to this potential danger, the benefits he could gain were enormous.

They need to draw upon the collective wisdom of the entire Soul Master community to increase their foundation and create even more powerful and perfect self-created Soul Skills.

Qianjun fell into deep thought and had to admit that this idea was indeed very good.

Their Spirit Hall has now completely surpassed all other forces and is truly turning its attention to the gods of the divine realm.

In the future, the Soul Master world will at most become their training ground.

When will it be over?

Tian Hao brought the topic back to the present, saying that all that was left was to attract the Elephant Armor Sect members to come to them.

"The Elephant Armor Sect members all choose the same Soul Rings. As long as they find the right place, they can obtain them all at once. Once they find their target, the people there will notify us."

"Thousand-Pound Douluo replied, while Demon-Slaying Douluo was playing with a small bottle. There was a sleeping little insect inside, and he asked curiously."

How did you come up with the idea of ​​using this method to send messages?

"That's just what I thought of."

Shrug, Tian Hao was quite satisfied with the result.

After obtaining those insects from Ghost Douluo, he nurtured and strengthened them with his life divine power, eventually increasing the resonance range of the paired insects to one hundred miles. He then proposed the method of transmitting information using a telegraph machine from his previous life, and had the people of the Spirit Hall specially study several sets of language codes.

This is necessary for long-distance communication, but a distance of 100 li is still not up to his expectations. It would have to be at least 1,000 li to be of strategic significance.

"It's such a waste to give you this kind of soul skill on that soul bone."

Turning his gaze to the increasingly robust Tian Hao, the Demon-Slaying Douluo expressed his regret.

"Actually, it's quite good. It will make it easier for me to infiltrate various factions in the future."

Tian Hao was quite satisfied. He had previously asked the Angelic Spirit to copy the Soul Bone skill from the Angel Set that could change appearance and soul power aura, and transferred it to his head Soul Bone as his second skill.

That's the one Qian Renxue used to transform into Xue Qinghe in the future. That soul skill has an extremely strong disguise effect, and even Tang San's Purple Demon Eye cannot see through it unless he reaches a certain level.

Moreover, that soul skill can be further developed. I reckon that only Qian Renxue didn't like that development direction, so she didn't use it. Otherwise, her strength would definitely be even greater.

As a man, he didn't have those concerns. This time, he drastically altered his physique and appearance so that even his parents wouldn't recognize him as their son.

Chapter 331 New Illusion Launched

Hu Yankai, unaware that he was being targeted, was leading his team to absorb soul rings. They had previously launched a strong attack on a group of Black Rock Elephants, killing seven Black Rock Elephants that had just reached the age of ten thousand.

"It's a pity there's no soul bone!"

After examining the seven black rock elephant carcasses, Hu Yankai felt a slight regret.

The Elephant Armor Clan had been eyeing this herd of over a hundred Black Rock Elephants for two years, specifically for their seven clan brothers.

The Black Rock Elephant is an earth-attribute soul beast with strong defense and attack power, making it very suitable for the Diamond Mammoth Martial Soul of the Elephant Armor Sect.

"It's a pity that the inner area is too dangerous, otherwise those earth elephants would be the best choice."

Looking towards the inner perimeter of Sunset Forest, Hu Yankai felt a sense of apprehension.

Both the Black Rock Elephant and the Earth Elephant are earth-attribute elephant-type soul beasts, but the Earth Elephant is a level higher than the Black Rock Elephant and also has the talent to control gravity, which is equivalent to a domain skill.

Unfortunately, after the cataclysmic changes in the world, not only did their Soul Masters become more powerful, but the Soul Beasts did as well.

The Sunset Forest has changed quite a bit in recent years. The inner area has become increasingly dangerous, and even the Spirit Hall is urging the Spirit Master community not to risk entering the Sunset Forest, so as not to provoke the powerful Spirit Beasts inside and trigger a beast tide.

"Don't be greedy. It's already perfect that we were able to successfully hunt down seven suitable Black Rock Elephants this time."

Hu Yanzhen offered a reminder, but he was also quite wary.

Sunset Forest is becoming increasingly dangerous, especially the inner area. Even though he broke through to become a Soul Douluo this year, he still doesn't dare to set foot in the inner area.

I even heard that last year, Poison Douluo was chased by several 100,000-year-old soul beasts inside and almost lost his life.

Even a titled Douluo almost lost his life, so naturally his small frame wouldn't dare to go in. Bringing the little ones from his clan here this time was already quite risky.

Just as Huyan Kai was about to say something, he suddenly looked in a certain direction as if he had sensed something. Huyan Zhen, who was even stronger, also looked in that direction with a puzzled expression.

"Are there still clansmen going into Sunset Forest to hunt for spirit rings? How come I didn't know?"

Hu Yanzhen was stunned. His martial spirit had just resonated slightly, indicating that someone from his clan had activated their martial spirit to engage in battle not far away.

However, Sunset Forest has almost become a forbidden area, and all clansmen who need to enter to hunt for soul rings must report it.

Even if those little guys managed to gather their time to come here, how come there are still clansmen entering?

"I'll go take a look later."

Turning his head to look at the seven junior members of the clan who were refining their soul rings, Hu Yanzhen chose to continue protecting them.

These seven youngsters are not only the best among the younger generation of their clan, but also the source of their Elephant Armor Academy's confidence in competing for the next Soul Master Competition. Among them is their son, Hu Yanmeng.

There must be no room for error.

Huyan Kai also chose to continue guarding. Although he was very curious about the clansman over there, this was not a safe place. Even with his strength, he could hardly protect himself. He was only able to get here thanks to the young clan leader clearing the way.

Before the two could wait long, Hu Yanmeng and the other six refined their spirit rings and became true five-ring spirit kings. The black spirit rings slowly rotated under their feet, but all seven of them were in bad condition, and one of them even vomited.

"Just hang in there!"

Seeing his son bleeding from his nose, Hu Yanzhen breathed a sigh of relief.

In recent years, the changes in spirit beasts have been significant, and the refinement of spirit rings has become increasingly dangerous. Therefore, even though the strength of spirit masters has increased considerably due to the changes in the world, they still adhere to the limits of spirit ring lifespan that each school has explored in the past, and dare not exceed them in the slightest.

Now, the symptoms like nosebleeds and vomiting are much milder. He has finally obtained a ten-thousand-year soul ring, and his strength will undergo a qualitative transformation.

"We'll set off after a half-hour rest."

After giving the order, Hu Yanzhen continued to keep watch on the surroundings to prevent any soul beasts from launching a sneak attack.

Hu Yanmeng and his six companions dared not delay, and after eating something and resting, they recovered from their headaches.

Hu Yankai then used his storage soul tool to collect the corpses of the seven black rock elephants, intending to give them to Hu Yanmeng and the other six to eat later, as it would be beneficial to their cultivation.

Half an hour later, the group set off, with Hu Yanzhen at the front and Hu Yankai at the back, flanking Hu Yanmeng and the other six to protect them.

"Dad, this is not the way back."

Realizing that the direction was wrong, Hu Yanmeng asked in bewilderment.

"Use your Martial Soul to sense carefully."

Hu Yanzhen, who was moving forward, replied, his eyes still scanning his surroundings warily, even with his martial spirit activated.

Because he had just sensed that the clansman was located closer to the inner perimeter, he had to be extremely careful.

"Possessed by a diamond mammoth!"

Hu Yanmeng followed the instructions and possessed his martial soul. His already burly figure immediately swelled several sizes, and then, through the possession of his martial soul, he immediately sensed a barely perceptible sense of resonance.

This is a unique resonance among martial spirits of the same clan. Could it be that there are other clansmen in the Sunset Forest?

"Young Clan Leader, I feel a sense of oppression, not the oppressive feeling you have with high-level soul power, but more like..."

Hu Yankai, who was walking behind and also possessed a martial spirit, suddenly spoke, his expression filled with surprise and uncertainty.

"It's more like a sense of oppression when facing a higher-level martial spirit."

"I am walking ahead," Hu Yanzhen said, his expression very solemn.

This sense of oppression at the level of martial spirits stems from the suppression of grade. Generally, only when a low-level martial spirit faces a high-level martial spirit of the same kind will one feel that way.

For example, ordinary elephant-type martial spirit masters would be suppressed and have their strength reduced when facing Elephant Armor Sect masters.

But their Elephant Armor Sect's Diamond Mammoth is already the highest-level elephant-type martial soul on the continent, infinitely close to the top-level martial soul. How could they possibly have an even higher-level elephant-type martial soul?
