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

On the other hand, Yu Lan felt immense pressure. The previous dinner had shown her her sister-in-law's incredible culinary talent, which could only be described as terrifying.

"Forget it, don't be too demanding, as long as it's edible."

Sighing inwardly, Yu Lan didn't intend to set a high standard for her sister-in-law's cooking skills; as long as it was edible, it would be considered acceptable.

Only after Yu Luomian and his son disappeared into the clouds halfway up the mountain did the four return to Shuangfei Fort.

"Thank you!"

After taking a shower and engaging in some intense training, Liu Erlong collapsed onto his little wolfhound's chest and thanked him.

If the young wolf hadn't taken that bite, the situation would have been very awkward, let alone the heartwarming scene that followed.

"What are you thanking me for? We're husband and wife!"

Tian Hao gently stroked Long'er's nose, showing his doting affection.

Anyway, he had suppressed his sense of smell and taste beforehand, and then transferred those things into the Dao Palace Secret Realm. He didn't suffer much himself, and even used it to trick his father-in-law and the others.

They don't have their own way of suppressing their sense of smell and taste, so it must be very painful for them to force themselves to eat so much food.

Therefore, this son-in-law is not so easy to fool; one should be prepared to inflict heavy losses on both sides.

"After Dad and my eldest brother bring the clansmen over, we'll go to my mother's place."

Thinking of her deceased mother, Liu Erlong wanted to pay her respects, since it had been more than ten years since she last visited her mother's grave since she met Xiaogang.

When she married Xiaogang, she originally wanted to take him to pay respects to her mother, but she was afraid that Xiaogang would find out about her mother's background and her status as an illegitimate child.

She knew that Xiaogang was a very proud person, and that he had been hurt by that vicious woman before. She had to consider Xiaogang's feelings, so she hadn't said anything.

Now that the conflict with his father has been resolved and he has found a suitable husband, he naturally has to go to his mother's grave to pay his respects and make her happy.

“I was just about to tell you this. I can see that you love your mother-in-law very much. I want to move your mother-in-law’s grave here, to the cemetery below Zilei Mountain, so that when you pass away, you can be buried with your mother-in-law.”

She will be able to enjoy the offerings and worship from us and our future generations, and she will no longer be lonely..."

Speaking of moving his mother-in-law's house, Tian Hao had previously opened up a lot of space inside Zi Lei Mountain, with the deepest part being a special cemetery, just like the angel cemetery in the Pope Mountain of Wuhun City.

Although there are many taboos surrounding relocating graves, it is permissible as long as the reason is reasonable.

Liu Erlong was moved by what he said. Indeed, his mother was buried there all alone, and now that he and his father had moved to the Star Luo Empire, it would not be easy for them to go and pay their respects in the future.

After all, the world of Soul Masters is becoming increasingly dangerous, and moving his mother's grave here would also save him from the dangers of the journey to pay his respects in the future.

Most importantly, he wanted his mother to be worshipped by his and his son's descendants, and for his father to be buried there after his death so that he could be with his mother forever.

Thinking of this, Liu Erlong was filled with happiness and emotion. Despite her weak body, she gave the little wolfhound a sweet kiss. Then she moved down and began to explain the profound meaning of the word "bite" to him.

There's no other way. I just went through intense training, so it's difficult to use the Star Absorbing Technique in a short time. I need some time to recover and refine the absorbed power before I can use it again.

Now we can only use the Northern Darkness Divine Art as a substitute, and the fusion of Dragon Claw Hand and Mountain Embracing Seal will not be bad either.

Despite being besieged by the three ultimate techniques of the Northern Darkness Divine Art, Dragon Claw Hand, and Embracing Mountain Seal, even with Tian Hao's mental state and cultivation, he couldn't help but gasp in shock, contributing to the global warming efforts in Douluo Continent.

……

And so Tian Hao continued to cultivate with Senior Sister Long'er, and in his spare time, he mentored the young man Yu Tianxin.

Of course, they didn't forget to deal with that brain-eating demon either.

After his father-in-law and brother-in-law left, his third grandfather, Qingluan Douluo, secretly sent over the brain-eating demon he had trained.

"It's still too complicated; we need to sort it out in depth."

After sensing the situation, Tian Hao was not satisfied with the Brain Eater's condition. Although it had been cleaned up by Azure Phoenix Douluo and its martial soul had evolved into a true Emerald Bird, there were still hidden dangers.

Without delay, he controlled the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger to devour the soul power within its body with the Evil God Hook, and even devoured the martial soul. Using the evil divine power to purify it, the martial soul was transformed into the purest primordial power.

Although both the Emerald Bird and the Dark Demon God Tiger are evil soul beasts that grow by devouring, the Emerald Bird is much weaker than the Dark Demon God Tiger because the Dark Demon God Tiger's foundation is the divine power of the Evil God King, and its potential is much higher than that of the Emerald Bird.

With the power of evil gods as its foundation, there is no power in the Douluo plane that cannot be perfectly refined except for the inherited power of the other four God Kings, plus the power of the Silver Dragon King. Therefore, although the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger can only grow by devouring, there will be no hidden dangers, and it will not be a problem no matter how much it devours.

However, the Emerald Demon Bird, being native to the area and lacking any god-level power, does not have such an advantage and is unable to perfectly refine the power it devours on its own.

What's truly terrifying about this creature, besides its speed, is that it's a social animal, always living in large groups before it went extinct.

Wherever it went, a hole was pierced through the heads of all living beings, and their brains and soul power were drained, literally drained alive. This shows how ferocious the Emerald Demon Bird was.

Therefore, a single Emerald Bird is not scary. Its only advantage is its lightning speed, and this super-fast speed formed by using wind attribute soul power is exactly what Tian Hao needs.

After being thoroughly refined by the evil divine power of the Dark Demon God Tiger, it was rapidly reshaped under the blessing of life evolution ability, transforming into a brand new Emerald Demon Bird Martial Soul.

"This is the clone I wanted, not a beast whose animalistic instincts outweigh its rationality."

After carefully sensing the surroundings and confirming that the reshaped Emerald Demon Bird Martial Soul no longer possessed that ferocity, Tian Hao was finally satisfied and relieved.

He chose to transform all nine of his elemental clones into soul beast forms, mainly because these beast forms were better suited to the characteristics of various elemental attributes.

For example, the Xuanwu Turtle, in that form, can have more and closer contact with the earth, thus making it easier and more capable of mobilizing the earth's power.

In the mythological era, the Titans, who were known as the gods of the earth alongside the Xuanwu beast, could also control the power of the earth, but they were far inferior to the Xuanwu beast in their application of it, due to the advantage brought by their physical form.

After all, Titan only has its feet touching the ground, which is far less than that of the Xuanwu Divine Beast.

Of course, the Titans didn't rely solely on the power of the earth; their advantages in other aspects were unmatched by the Xuanwu Divine Beast.

However, when it comes to the power of the earth, the Xuanwu Divine Beast is more professional; its elemental clones rely on this kind of expertise.

Secondly, there's the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, which can simultaneously display the sturdiness and sharpness of the metal element, something that wouldn't work on a human body.

The human body can at most cultivate a golden body to exhibit powerful defenses of the metal element, but it cannot achieve any sharpness or edge.

After all, human fingernails are simply not able to match the sharpness of the metal attribute. But the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear is different. It can use its own claws to perfectly bear the sharpness of the metal attribute. It is because of this that the Bear King can use both offense and defense to cultivate the metal attribute to be infinitely close to the ultimate metal.

However, he only wanted the form of a beast, not a true soul beast. It had to possess human reason and absolutely could not be controlled by animalistic instincts.

The Emerald Bird is an extremely ferocious and savage bird, and it was precisely because of this ferocity that the Brain Eater Demon ultimately went astray. He did not want the Emerald Bird clone to still be affected by this ferocity in the future.

"I'll put a new spirit ring on you!"

After confirming that the Emerald Bird Martial Soul was basically stable, Tian Hao fixed its true form and then put on a brand new black ten-thousand-year soul ring.

Of the nine spirit rings of the Brain Eater Demon, only the seventh spirit ring was completely fused with the martial soul. The remaining eight spirit rings were extracted by the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. Now, Tian Hao is going to put a special spirit ring on it.

This was something he had specifically asked Rakshasa God for back in Wuhun City; it originated from the Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King in Hell Road, the City of Slaughter.

After dismembering the Asura God's consciousness, they took the City of Slaughter and the Hell Road Secret Realm below with them, including the Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King.

The Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King has several impressive abilities, the most important of which is splitting and recombination. He can disperse into many smaller bats and then reassemble them at will.

For the Emerald Birds to unleash their true destructive power, their numbers must be increased.

However, there is only one Emerald Demon Bird Martial Soul at present, and it was mutated with great difficulty. It is almost impossible to replicate it, and even the Martial Soul bloodline of the Brain-Eating Demon may not be able to cultivate it.

After all, this is an acquired mutation, and it may not necessarily change one's innate bloodline.

At that moment, he immediately thought of the Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King, which can split into countless small bats. If this ability were made into a soul ring and added to the Emerald Bird clone, a group of Emerald Birds could be formed, and the combat power would skyrocket.

Of course, this is only the initial stage. Once the splitting and recombining spirit ring skill is understood and can be evolved into a self-created spirit skill, this spirit ring will be removed.

In addition, those elemental martial soul clones can also have spirit rings.

It is a fusion of the human soul master system and the soul beast system, bringing together the power of the two systems into one.

"We also need to speed up the training of the Ice Jade Scorpion and evolve it into the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion as soon as possible. We also need to find a way to convert ice and water attributes. This will probably require a trip to Poseidon Island. It's also time to infiltrate Poseidon Island and investigate."

Turning his gaze to the Ice Jade Scorpion Martial Soul that was being nurtured, Tian Hao pondered how to cultivate it.

The Ice Jade Scorpion is the clan of the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, and the Ice Emperor is the emperor of the Ice Jade Scorpion clan.

Of course, compared to the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, which possesses ultimate ice, the ordinary Ice Jade Scorpion is quite ordinary. Although its ice attribute is also strong, it is still far from being the ultimate ice.

Fortunately, when my great-grandfather Qian Daoliu went to the far north last time, he took the opportunity to spar with the Ice Emperor and obtained some of his blood and soul power.

The Spirit Hall had already found a Soul Saint with the Ice Jade Scorpion Martial Soul who had taken many lives, and then captured him and trained him in the same way as Zhao Wuji.

Unfortunately, the Ice Jade Scorpion Martial Soul was of a lower grade, only considered a high-level Martial Soul. The Soul Master could only cultivate it to level 95 before he could make any further progress, reaching the limit of his own talent. Even refining the Ice Emperor's blood and soul power did not help.

Of course, it's not that it's impossible to improve, but it would take a very long time. Rather than continuing to cultivate it slowly, it would be better to immediately create an avatar for Tian Hao to cultivate, which would be faster.

He had obtained this person back in Wuhun City, and then, following the same procedure as Zhao Wuji, he used the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger to devour the original soul, and then used the life evolution ability of the Blue Silver Divine Tree to nurture a new soul.

Then, he stabilized the Martial Soul True Form, reversed it from the human form, turned the Martial Soul True Form into its normal state, and created the current Ice Jade Scorpion clone.

Of course, he actually wanted a special elemental soul beast like the Snow Maiden, which clearly had more potential than the Ice Jade Scorpion.

Unfortunately, the Snow Maiden is an extremely rare soul beast, let alone one that can form a martial soul, so we can only settle for the Ice Jade Scorpion clone.

However, the ice attribute alone is not enough; it must also have the water attribute that complements it. After all, the water attribute is the most basic of the nine elemental powers in this world, and the ice attribute is just a variant of the water attribute.

It's difficult to manifest water attribute in the Ice Jade Scorpion's martial soul. He has no clue what to do, and he doesn't have a water attribute soul beast that is highly compatible with the Ice Jade Scorpion's martial soul. He can only try to find a way to improve the Ice Jade Scorpion itself.

To achieve this, we'll probably have to go to Poseidon Island.

In the Douluo Continent, if we're talking about the one with the highest and deepest mastery of water attributes, it would definitely be the Seagod Island left behind by the Seagod. If we could obtain their secrets, it would surely be of great help in evolving the Ice Jade Scorpion into a water attribute.

I just don't know if that high priest of Poseidon Island is easy to fool.

Chapter 481 The Scheme of the Asura God

Leaving aside Tian Hao's cultivation, after sending the sixteen teams of the Heaven Dou Empire to Snow Peak City, Sword Douluo was preparing to return to the Sword Sect, but he was stopped on the way by someone he knew.

"Tang Chen is here too?"

After glancing at Tang Zhen, who was blocking his way, Chen Xin manifested his martial soul, the Seven Kill Sword, and expanded the Seven Kill Domain to sense the surrounding space.

Since being reminded by his junior brother, he has done some research on space. Now, even if he can't control space, he can at least have a detailed perception of space within the Seven Kill Domain. No one can use spatial means to sneak attack him, including that Haotian Douluo Tang Chen.

"I have come here with no ill intentions, but I have some information to deliver to Sect Master Chen."

Tang Zhen pulled back his wide hood, a smile on his face, but his heart was filled with murderous intent.

He already knew everything from his father, including being surrounded and killed by Qian Daoliu and his men in the City of Slaughter, among whom was Sword Douluo Chen Xin.

However, he did not believe that Sword Douluo had defected to the Spirit Hall. After all, the hatred for killing one's father is irreconcilable, and given Sword Douluo's personality, there was no way he would ignore the hatred for killing his father and defect to the Spirit Hall.

As long as they are not from the Spirit Hall, there is a basis for cooperation between them.

"What intelligence?"

Chen Xin remained vigilant, but he had already guessed what Tang Zhen was going to say. In fact, he had been waiting for Tang Zhen's arrival all along, and it was already beyond his expectations that the old man had waited until now to come.

“Your child with Yuan’er went to the City of Slaughter, right before you joined forces with the Spirit Hall to kill my father, and has never come out since.”

Without keeping everyone in suspense, Tang Zhen revealed the intelligence while keeping a close eye on Chen Xin, observing the changes in his expression and eyes.
