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

Now, with the Sword Douluo and Sword Sect members who have no good feelings towards their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in their place, the thought of this situation makes him want to curse.

Chapter 378 Snowblade City

The Wind Sword Sect did indeed submit to Chen Xin's Sword Sect, or more accurately, to the Spirit Hall.

Compared to the complex situation within the Holy Dragon Sect, the Wind Sword Sect is much clearer. Its sect leader has absolute authority and secretly allied himself with the Spirit Hall years ago. Several elders have also surrendered one after another and have gained a lot of benefits from the Spirit Hall, showing considerable loyalty.

Moreover, the Spirit Hall has stated that as long as one follows the plan to join the Sword Sect, they will be allowed to inherit and cultivate the sword intent.

Faced with the allure of sword intent and the sword domain, the Wind Sword Sect's sect leader and several elders quickly packed up and moved over to support the Sword Sect, making it a powerful force that was openly independent of the Spirit Hall.

"Father, my junior brother has not disappointed you. The era of swordsmanship he spoke of has already begun..."

Inside the newly built Sword Tomb, Chen Xin recounts everything before his father's memorial tablet, expressing his deep admiration for his father's vision.

The junior brother led their War Soul Sect to achieve unprecedented feats, ushering in an era of swordsmanship.

Although only a corner has been lifted so far, it is enough for him to preview the magnificent scene to come.

Father made the right decision to take on his junior apprentice back then; experience truly pays off.

"Sect Master, Prince Xue Zhou has sent an invitation, inviting you to Xuefeng City as a special guest to participate in this Soul Master Competition."

At this moment, a middle-aged man with his eyes covered by a cloth stepped into the forbidden area of ​​the Sword Tomb. He was none other than Jian Wuhen, the sect leader of the Wind Sword Sect. The reason for covering his eyes was that he was to cultivate the secret technique passed down by their sect leader lineage, which allowed him to strongly sense the existence of the wind element.

Of course, this secret technique has been unrestricted, and all members of the clan can now practice it.

"Even Prince Xue Zhou has made an appearance. Is he the one hosting the Soul Master Competition this time? But where is Xuefeng City? Isn't it being held in Tiandou City this year?"

Chen Xin turned around, quite surprised by the invitation.

He recognized Prince Xue Zhou; he was Emperor Xue Sheng's elder brother. He had met him a few times back in Tian Dou City. Prince Xue Zhou was a very low-profile elder of the royal family, and he never expected that he would be invited out this time.

He had never heard of the name Snow Peak City before. He wouldn't say he knew all the cities in Heavenly Dou City, but he was at least familiar with the major cities.

"Snow Peak City is the former Heaven Dou City. It has been rebuilt over the years. It is said that Prince Snow Day built a giant Soul Arena on the ruins of the original Heaven Dou Imperial Palace. It can accommodate 300,000 spectators at the same time, which is much larger than the original Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena. It was named Snow Battle Great Soul Arena, and Heaven Dou City was renamed Snow Peak City."

"Is Xuezhou really that reckless?"

Chen Xin was stunned. Wasn't that old guy afraid of being killed by Xue Ye?

"It's nothing more than winning back some people's hearts and paving the way for the next Heavenly Dou Emperor."

With a disdainful sneer, Jian Wuhen had already guessed the Heavenly Dou Royal Family's intentions.

In short, the Tian Dou royal family has essentially abandoned Xue Ye and is preparing to focus on cultivating the next emperor in order to restore the Tian Dou royal family's reputation in the empire and stabilize its rule.

Otherwise, if this stalemate continues, the empire's rule may collapse.

"Very well, we need a stage now to officially elevate the Sword Sect to one of the three upper sects, replacing the Haotian Sect."

Chen Xin looked helpless. He thought it was Xue Zhou and the Tian Dou royal family who had a change of heart, but it turned out to be a scheme. However, they also needed a stage to announce the establishment of the Sword Sect and to replace the Haotian Sect as the number one offensive sect in the world.

"Isn't it a bit too hasty to announce this to the whole world at this time? That Haotian Douluo hasn't even shown his face yet."

Jian Wuhen was worried, feeling it was too early; he needed to defeat Haotian Douluo at least to be absolutely sure.

"If Tang Chen shows up, I will accept the challenge."

Chen Xin displayed absolute confidence. He knew very well that Tang Chen would not emerge in the short term. With a few years of buffer time, his swordsmanship would inevitably advance further, infinitely approaching the level of a hundred-level god.

If his junior brother could create and perfect that system, he would cultivate himself into a god and would definitely not lose to Tang Chen.

Furthermore, they stole Tang Chen's martial soul. At most, the Asura God could only help him condense an Asura Demon Sword, but Tang Chen, who only knows how to play with hammers, would never understand swordsmanship.

If they were to play swordsmanship on equal footing, he could easily defeat Tang Chen.

Of course, these secrets cannot be revealed. The fewer people who know about this, the better. Sword Douluo Chen Xin's current persona is only because he was forced by the Clear Sky Sect and Xue Ye to cooperate with the Spirit Hall once and besiege Tang Chen.

Sensing the confidence in Chen Xin's words, Jian Wuhen wisely remained silent.

"Brother Wuhen, although you have supported the Sword Sect, you should be aware of some things. Our Sword Sect is only trying to attract the attention of the major powers on the continent and cultivate a powerful force outside of the Spirit Hall. In the end, we are still a part of the Spirit Hall, and the concept of clan will inevitably be abolished."

I don't want to be at odds with any of you in the future. On the contrary, you are really smart. If you follow the Spirit Hall, you will have opportunities that you can't even imagine.

There are some things I can't say too clearly, do you understand?

Suddenly, as if remembering something, Chen Xin pointed it out to Jian Wuhen.

The Sword Sect is just a front; it will eventually be integrated into the Spirit Hall. Therefore, the concept of clan must be eliminated as soon as possible to avoid embarrassment and difficulties later.

"Thank you for the reminder, Brother Chen. I will take care of it."

Jian Wuhen readily agreed. He was a wise and shrewd man who knew when to yield. Since he had already made the decision to join the Spirit Hall, he could only go all the way down this path.

Moreover, the Spirit Hall has given so much; the knowledge he currently possesses is already incredibly valuable. And from Chen Xin's perspective, this is just an appetizer; there will be even greater opportunities in the future, which makes him even more excited.

"In the future, the Sword Sect will not actively participate in any conflicts. By restraining your clansmen and disciples, we have only one goal: to improve ourselves with all our might and prepare for the final moment."

As Chen Xin's gaze swept over the ancestral tablets, a sense of anticipation filled his heart.

He will basically not make any more moves from now on, but will instead focus on cultivating and trying to break through to the level 100 god realm, and prepare for the final battle, hoping to have a good fight then.

Jian Wuhen was also full of anticipation and extremely satisfied with the arrangements for the present and the near future.

Previously, the Wind Sword Sect had to constantly struggle to make a living, but now the Sword Sect is affiliated with the Holy Spirit Grand Duke, and the sect's expenses are directly supported by the tax revenue within the Holy Spirit Duchy. They only need to focus on cultivation. Is there any better life than this?

After all, who would risk their life and fight with someone if they could live a comfortable life?

"Should we take this opportunity to get those family members of the Snow Peak Legion from the Heaven Dou Empire?"

When the topic came up, Jian Wuhen knew about the Xuefeng Legion and what happened back then; those people were worth trying to win over.

"The population of the principality is rather small."

Chen Xin nodded, agreeing with the matter.

Although the war did not penetrate the Holy Spirit Principality, many people were so frightened that they fled with their families. Currently, the population is less than 30% of what it was before the war, and it needs to be replenished.

Moreover, those who are chosen to inherit and wield the Snowblade Greatsword naturally have sword-type martial souls. Even without innate soul power, they are easier to use swords than ordinary people with other martial souls.

Chapter 379 I'm Just a Legend

Tian Hao had a very tight schedule for his cultivation tasks. In addition to his own cultivation, he also observed and collected data on how others circulated their Qi and blood during cultivation, so as to continuously improve the method of tempering the body with Qi and blood and increase efficiency.

"What truly limits the body's ability to refine its Qi and blood is the quality of Qi and blood itself."

Summarizing his gains over this period, Tian Hao sighed inwardly that Qi and Blood cultivation was similar to Soul Power cultivation, with the most important thing being the quality and level.

The cultivation of soul power mainly lies in the quality of soul power, that is, the level of soul power.

The quality of each breakthrough in soul power will be improved, with the greatest improvement at each major realm and the Super Douluo level, which may even drive the improvement of martial soul.

The quality mentioned is not about turning soul power into a liquid or solid state, but a deeper level of change.

Simply liquefying and solidifying is still at the level of quantitative change, far from being comparable to a true qualitative change.

The same applies to Qi and Blood cultivation; quality determines everything. Even if Tian Hao compresses his Qi and Blood into a liquid state, the limit he can reach in tempering his body remains unchanged. At most, the liquid Qi and Blood can temper his body to the limit that his Qi and Blood level can bear more quickly.

"Ultimately, it's because humans aren't really suited to cultivating qi and blood; the starting point is too low."

He sighed inwardly, realizing that humans were far inferior to soul beasts in cultivating their qi and blood, and needed to work much harder to make up for this innate gap.

Fortunately, after several years of cultivation, especially in the last few months with the help of the Phoenix Fire and the ultimate death soul power, Tian Hao's blood and qi have reached a certain standard, the standard for condensing soul bones.

"Little Ancestor, the elephant chariot is ready!"

Hu Yanzhen's voice rang out from outside the courtyard. Tian Hao tidied himself up and went out, then got into the Elephant Armor Sect's distinctive elephant carriage.

Spirit cultivation places great emphasis on the simulated environment, and the simulated environment for beast spirit masters is generally to live and cultivate with spirit beasts of the same type as their spirit.

The Xiangjia clan keeps many elephants, including several diamond mammoths.

Of course, the maximum cultivation period is a thousand years, because once a soul beast has lived for more than ten thousand years, it will develop intelligence and become quite difficult to raise.

Tian Hao used those two diamond mammoths to go to Xuefeng City, which is the old Tiandou City, to participate in the competition. These two big guys are five meters tall at the shoulder alone, and a sizable RV was built on their backs.

The diamond mammoth, with its millennia of cultivation, is quite fast when it runs, capable of covering a thousand miles a day, yet it moves very steadily.

Tian Hao and his team gathered on the RV on the back of the diamond mammoth in the middle, enjoying the scenery rushing by.

"Brother Kai, I heard that the Heavenly Dou Royal Family has announced that whichever academy wins the championship again will be awarded a dukedom and a hundred-mile territory."

Hu Yanmeng was very excited, truly stimulated by the conditions offered by the Heavenly Dou Royal Family.

He visited the Principality of Holy Spirit and Huanyin University two years ago. The development there is very rapid, especially Huanyin University.

If their Dragon Elephant Academy can win this championship and obtain a fiefdom, they can use the tax revenue from the fiefdom to support the academy and sect, thus allowing them to focus entirely on cultivation without having to worry about other miscellaneous matters.

Moreover, the allure of Soul Master Universities to Soul Masters is incredibly potent. Just look at the development of Huanyin University; its student body alone numbers in the thousands, several times more than Elephant Armor Academy.

And this is only a few years of development. If given a few more years or decades, it will be able to leave any other college far behind.

"The four of you don't need to play in the preliminary rounds and the qualifying rounds. Let Ma Tao and the others play to showcase the teaching strength of our Dragon Elephant Academy. Don't make it seem like Dragon Elephant Academy only has disciples from our Elephant Armor Sect and Holy Dragon Sect."

As the team leader, Hu Yankai earnestly reminded them that this Soul Master Competition would also be a great publicity opportunity for their Dragon Elephant Academy. Not only would 300,000 spectators watch the competition in Snow Peak City, but the Empire would also broadcast the recordings in major cities across the country.

How could we miss such an opportunity to showcase the college's teaching strength?

As for the so-called Dragon Elephant Academy, it is naturally a brand-new academy formed by the fusion of the original Elephant Armor Academy and the young members of the Holy Dragon Sect, which can be regarded as an initial attempt at the fusion of the two sects.

After all, they are two sects that have been independent for a long time. If they were to merge them together with a single sentence, it would definitely cause problems. Everything must be done step by step.

Dragon Elephant Academy is a product of this initial adaptation.

At the same time, the Dragon Elephant Academy also represents the Vajra Dragon Elephant.

"After being thrashed by the boss for so long, we've improved a lot. We don't even need to look at ordinary opponents anymore."

Hu Yanmeng was very arrogant. Although his soul power level hadn't increased much in the past few months, his combat power had increased dramatically, several times over.

Besides the boost from stimulating his blood and qi, the most important reason for this was being beaten up by that boss.

"You've gotten too proud. Tonight, you'll have a half-hour practice session with me."

Tian Hao, who was admiring the scenery, said something without turning his head, which instantly froze the arrogance on Hu Yanmeng's face, and then he wanted to cry.

Although he would improve significantly after each time he was tortured by his boss, the process of being tortured was extremely painful, and he didn't know how he got through the past few months.

As soon as Tian Hao spoke, everyone's expression turned serious, and they sat up straight, afraid of being called out and beaten.

"Pride is a major taboo in battle. In this Soul Master Competition, all the academies have spared no expense in training their team members, and some have even provided soul bones. Their strength will definitely far surpass that of the previous competition."

Moreover, the martial souls and soul skills in the world of soul masters are incredibly diverse, with all sorts of possibilities. There might even be a soul master who can counter you, so don't be careless.
