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

After some hesitation, Titan Snow Demon King finally gritted his teeth and decided to be the first to try.

This decision was made based on two reasons: first, trust in his good brother; and second, the research on the transformation method, which basically confirmed that there were no problems.

It might be difficult for a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast to cultivate, but for a two-hundred-thousand-year-old ferocious beast like myself, it wouldn't be a big problem. Even if there were unexpected events, they would be within a controllable range.

Without hesitation, the Titan Snow Demon King summoned his people, announced his intention to cultivate, and then entered the ice cave of the iceberg to practice his new method of transformation.

Hundreds of Titan Snow Demons guarded the outside of the ice cave, while only the eight 100,000-year-old Titan Snow Demons and Tian Hao were inside the ice cave watching over the Titan Snow Demon King's cultivation. Tian Hao even sat on the Titan Snow Demon's shoulder to guide him and fill in any gaps in his knowledge.

Because they already possess the unique transformation techniques of ferocious beasts, cultivating this new version of the transformation technique will be much easier using it as a foundation.

After cultivating for half a month, he finally reached a critical point. Strands of primordial power emanated from Titan Snow Demon King, were controlled and condensed in his palm, and gradually transformed into a human form.

As its primordial power continued to dissipate, the Titan Snow Demon King's body gradually faded, eventually becoming a semi-transparent form, revealing its internal skeleton.

At the same time, the humanoid figure in his palm was almost fully formed, with an appearance almost identical to the Titan Snow Demon King, but much smaller, like a miniature version of the Titan Snow Demon King.

This is the advantage of the Titan Snow Demon race, which originated from the Titan giants of the mythical era. The Titan giants themselves were essentially enlarged humans, with largely the same physical structure.

Transforming into human form based on it would be much easier than with other soul beasts, which is the main reason why Tian Hao first came to the Titan Snow Demon Clan to deceive them.

Only by thoroughly deceiving the Titan Snow Demon race can they use this as a foundation to deceive the other two major races, especially the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor.

At this point, the Titan Snow Demon King did not continue to separate its own source power, but instead used its soul power to stabilize the two forms.

The separation has reached its limit. If it continues, the soul core will disintegrate, which would mean truly abandoning the beast form and transforming into a human, with all cultivation sealed within the human body.

That wasn't the end of it. Titan Snow Demon King merged one of the three external soul cores he had cultivated into that human body, and the other two into himself.

With the fusion of the two soul cores, the originally illusory body solidified again, and the human body completely transformed into a real body.

That wasn't all. Following Tian Hao's instructions, the Titan Snow Demon King used his own soul power and primordial power as a bridge to permanently fuse his true form with that human body, forming a special form with two sides of the same coin.

Titan Snow Demon King experienced this new physical form, and then, following the method provided by his good brother, he circulated his soul power and primal power. His enormous body rapidly shrank, eventually transforming into a three-meter-tall human form.

"It's a magical feeling, different from the transformations I've seen before."

Experiencing this new human form, Titan Snow Demon King felt very curious.

"Has a martial soul been formed yet?"

Tian Hao asked, "Although this secret technique was jointly deduced by Sister-in-law A Yin and Sister-in-law A Wu and can be used by both animal-type and plant-type soul beasts, it is still the first time we have tried it, and some things still need to be confirmed."

"Yes, but it's very weak, and there seems to be a barrier preventing it from being activated."

He closed his eyes and sensed it. With the spiritual power of a 200,000-year-old ferocious beast, he could easily perceive the power of the martial soul, but he could not activate it, as if it was restricted.

"It seems that the awakening process is missing."

Tian Hao nodded knowingly, then took out six stone-shaped soul tools and used his soul power to hold them suspended around the Titan Snow Demon King. He activated them with his own soul power, and soon beams of light appeared and merged into the Titan Snow Demon King's body.

That's right, this is the set of tools that members of the Spirit Hall use to help others awaken their spirits. It contains diluted angelic divine power, which can be activated by spirit power to help others awaken their spirits.

In fact, this thing is just a trigger to stimulate and break through the barrier of the laws of heaven and earth, and to evolve the power of the martial soul bloodline into the form of the martial soul.

Stimulated by the divine power of the angels, the martial spirit essence within the Titan Snow Demon King's body was stimulated to break through its limitations, surging and evolving into a Titan Snow Demon King, which then merged back into the body, unleashing the form of martial spirit possession.

With the possession of the Martial Soul, his already massive size of three meters increased dramatically, reaching a full five meters.

This is the spirit possession form of the Titan Snow Demon King in human form. Because it is originally in human form, its facial features are not much different from those of humans. This is the form advantage inherited from its ancestor, the Titan Giant.

Therefore, whether it's a spirit possession or a future spirit true form, it will only increase the size of the body.

As the martial soul possessed the body, the stimulating light spots that had entered the body were expelled and returned to the stone-shaped soul tools.

"This is a device specifically designed by humans to test soul power. It is the lowest level and can only test soul power below level ten. However, it is the most accurate and can detect even the weakest soul power."

You place your palm on it. The stronger your soul power, the more light will occupy. If it's a level 10 innate full soul power, the light will completely fill the crystal ball. We soul beasts generally have innate full soul power after transforming into human form after 100,000 years.

After taking out a crystal ball and explaining it to him, Tian Hao gestured for Titan Snow Demon King to place his palm on it.

As instructed, he pressed his palm on the crystal ball, and two colors of light, ice blue and earth yellow, appeared inside, filling the entire crystal ball.

As a descendant of the Titan Giants and the Ancient Ice God, the Titan Snow Demon possesses the power of both, manifesting in its soul power as earth and ice attributes. However, due to environmental factors, the Titan Snow Demon's ice attribute soul power is stronger.

In the crystal ball, the light manifested as 60% ice-blue and only 40% earth-yellow.

"According to the limitations of human soul masters, a soul ring is needed every ten levels to assist in the breakthrough. This is a limitation of the rules of heaven and earth. At the same time, each soul ring can bring a certain evolution effect to the martial soul."

The higher the age of the Soul Ring, the better the evolution effect.

However, we don't need to pursue that. We just need to condense the lowest level white soul ring to help us break through the bottleneck. Our beastman-human hybrid form awakens a martial soul that is of the same origin as the original body, and we can use the original body's origin to improve it.

At the same time, the breakthroughs of human soul masters will also contribute to the strengthening of their martial souls, especially the breakthroughs at each major level and each level increase after level 95, which will allow the martial soul to evolve.

This feedback can also boost the original power of our own body, allowing us to become a million-year-old divine beast more quickly.

In addition, we can draw upon the vital energy of our own bodies to shape soul bones in human form, thereby enhancing physical attributes…”

Tian Hao solemnly explained the theoretical mysteries of this subject, and this time he was not exaggerating, but speaking the truth.

The Titan Snow Demon King and the eight Titan Snow Demons, each a hundred thousand years old, were filled with excitement, seeing a bright future they had never dared to imagine before.

Although their soul beasts are powerful, their cultivation speed is too slow. Theoretically, they would need to cultivate for a million years to become divine beasts.

Humans have a much easier time cultivating; they can become Title Douluo within a hundred years, which is equivalent to 100,000 years of cultivation among their soul beasts.

The difference between 100,000 years and 100 years is a thousandfold.

Some exceptional individuals can even achieve the title of Douluo before the age of fifty, which adds up to a difference of two thousand times, making it hard to believe.

Not to mention the millions of years of cultivation that followed.

This new method of transformation adds a cultivation system to their cultivation, and it can coexist with their original cultivation system. The combination of the two will definitely make their cultivation speed faster.

It will be much faster than simply cultivating in a beast form.

Suppressing his excitement, Titan Snow Demon King used a secret technique to separate a portion of his essence and, with the help of the rules of heaven and earth, condensed it into a white soul ring roughly equivalent to ten years of life, which he then wore on his body. The feeling of being bound finally disappeared, and his soul power successfully broke through to level eleven.

Although it was only a barely successful breakthrough, it is indeed possible to continue cultivating until the next bottleneck.

Then, Titan Snow Demon King activated his true essence, his body rapidly expanded, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed back into his original form. He clenched his fist and felt that apart from the great loss of soul power caused by cultivating the transformation technique, there was nothing else abnormal, and his strength had not been weakened.

"Now that this transformation method has succeeded, you can also cultivate some of the human-created soul skills. After you have mastered them, you can modify them to suit your physical abilities."

I have a few decent soul skills here, which I created based on my own abilities. I'll demonstrate them for you.

After speaking, Tian Hao stood up, disassembled the Xuanbing Battle Armor, and dropped it on the ground. His upper body clothes were also shattered, revealing his well-defined physique.

He circulated his Xuanbing Soul Power, which began to turn his hands into a deep white color and quickly spread throughout his body. Soon, his entire body was transformed into that deep white appearance, resembling cold jade.

"This is called the Cold Jade True Body. It integrates ice-attribute soul power into the bones and muscles through the flow of meridians. Its strength will increase with the level of ice-attribute soul power. Its defensive power will be weaker than that of pure Xuanbing Armor, but it will be much more perfect for emergency use and for use in conjunction with Xuanbing Armor."

"And then there's the Lingbo Weibu (Lingbo Steps), which has excellent speed and dodging ability, making it especially suitable for use on ice. It's good for both running away and fighting, and it can also be used in conjunction with the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique..."

After unleashing the Cold Jade True Body, Tian Hao then used a knock-off version of the Lingbo Steps, which was an improvement on the Ghost Shadow Steps. He also incorporated the Mysterious Heaven Skill into it, allowing him to cultivate his soul power while performing the Lingbo Steps.

As for the Cold Jade True Body, it is naturally the full-body version of the Mysterious Jade Hand. With his current cultivation level and accumulated knowledge, it is not difficult for him to expand it from the hands to the whole body as long as he understands the internal principles.

The main reason why the Tang Sect in Tang San's world couldn't achieve this was due to the Xuan Tian Gong. The Xuan Tian Gong's characteristic is that it is endless and boundless, but it doesn't inherently possess extreme ice attributes.

The limit is already to temporarily convert a small amount of ice-attribute internal energy through special meridians.

Most importantly, ice-attribute internal energy is a double-edged sword. If it is stored in the body for a long time, it will inevitably damage oneself, let alone be used on a large scale. Converting the hands is already the limit.

However, Tian Hao does not have this problem. Although his cultivation of the Grass Sword Martial Soul has not yet benefited the cells and blood vessels of his entire body, his physical strength is high enough.

Not only did it achieve soul bone transformation, but it also achieved martial soul transformation, and its strength was incredibly powerful, even able to withstand the soul power of extreme ice for a short time.

In addition, its powerful self-healing ability means it can recover quickly even if it is injured, so there is no need to worry at all.

"Go out and make preparations. We'll set off for the Hyotei clan's territory tomorrow."

Although he coveted the two self-created soul skills, Titan Snow Demon King did not immediately ask his good brother for guidance on cultivation. Instead, he ordered his eight subordinates to prepare for the migration of the entire clan.

Just like my good brother Ah Xie said, we don't have much time left. We must hurry up and unify the far north as soon as possible, then build the Great Wall defense line and establish a civilization belonging to their soul beasts.

The eight Titan Snow Demons, each a hundred thousand years old, received the order, rose, and walked out of the ice cave to inform their people to pack up their belongings and relocate.

They were not abandoning their territory, but rather trying to better persuade the Hyotei and demonstrate their resolve.

Of course, the most important thing is the existence of human threats. They cannot be scattered, otherwise they will be ambushed and killed by those despicable humans.

Originally, thanks to the changes in the heavens and earth, their Titan Snow Demon clan could have produced at least twenty members of the clan who would live for 100,000 years. However, they were killed by those despicable humans in a sneak attack, leaving only eight of them in the end.

With powerful humans lurking around, they had no choice but to unite and prevent humans from launching a sneak attack.

After preparing for the night, the entire Titan Snow Demon Clan set off the next day towards the core and coldest location of the far north. That was the territory of their strongest being in the far north, the Snow Emperor, and also the birthplace of the Ice and Snow Maiden Clan. It had always been regarded as a forbidden area, and anyone who stepped into it would be attacked and killed by the Ice and Snow Maiden Clan.

Even though the three races have formed an alliance in recent years, this taboo still exists.

However, they were risking their lives for the future of the Soul Beast race and would not hesitate in the slightest.

Because of their enormous size and powerful physique, the Titan Snow Demons did not travel slowly on foot. Instead, they all ran, using the slowest member's speed as a benchmark. After two days of non-stop running, they arrived at the very core of the far north, the origin of the Ice and Snow Maidens clan and the territory of the Snow Emperor.

The Titan Snow Demons made quite a commotion as they approached, and were immediately detected by the Ice and Snow Maidens. Dozens of Ice and Snow Maidens took to the air, looking down at the Titan Snow Demons below, while simultaneously gathering a blizzard in preparation for an attack.

Although the three races are allied, the Titan Snow Demons have already violated the rules by entering in this way, even though they sent a member of their race to inform them yesterday, it is still not allowed.

The Ice and Snow Maidens clan refuses to let anyone approach their territory; this is their rule and taboo.

Then a gigantic ice bear came and stopped below the Ice and Snow Maidens, eyeing the Titan Snow Demons with predatory intent.

The territory of the Ice and Snow Maidens clan is indeed a forbidden area for other soul beasts, but it is not absolute. This Ice Bear King is an exception because he was adopted by the Snow Empress.

"Please do not make a move. We have come for the future of the Soul Beast race. We request that the Snow Empress come out and meet us."

The Titan Snow Demon King stepped forward and shouted, causing the Ice and Snow Maidens, who were preparing to unleash a powerful attack to freeze the entire Titan Snow Demon race, to hesitate slightly.

Before they could hesitate for long, a white figure flew in from behind—it was the Snow Empress, the queen of the Ice and Snow Maiden clan!

Upon seeing their king arrive, the Ice and Snow Maidens quickly made way.

Flying up and landing on the Ice Bear King's head, the Snow Empress remained silent, simply watching the Titan Snow Demon King, seeking an explanation. If the explanation failed to satisfy her, then she shouldn't be walking back.

“Scorpion, you go and talk to him.”

Titan Snow Demon King, who was being stared at by Snow Empress, instinctively shivered, feeling a little scared. He gestured to his good brother on his shoulder to go and say it himself.

Their entire clan came this time primarily to support their good brother and give him some leverage, since some things require sufficient strength to back them up before the other party will listen.

Against someone as arrogant as the Snow Empress, without sufficient strength, one would not even be given a second glance.

"Your Majesty, my name is Ashe. We have come here for the future of the soul beasts in the far north, and we have some ideas that require your approval and assistance..."

Tian Hao didn't beat around the bush and frankly expressed his intentions.

In the end, the Titan Snow Demon King even used a transformation technique to reveal his human form, which indeed aroused the Snow Emperor's interest.
