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

"This is my home turf too!"

Her smile remained unchanged, and she exuded confidence. The sea witch enjoyed the environment with its rich moisture, which, while not as pleasant as the ocean, was better than the dry land.

"Young man, let me play a tune for you!"

Manifesting her martial spirit, the Sea Demon Flute, the Sea Witch blinked her bright green eyes, determined to possess it.

If they were in the Holy Spirit Kingdom, she naturally wouldn't dare to make a move, otherwise she would definitely be detected by the experts from the Illusionary Sound Academy and the Sword Sect. At that time, let alone taking this little child back to Seagod Island, she herself would have difficulty escaping.

But things are different here. Even if you go all out, the powerful figures of the Holy Spirit Kingdom won't be able to sense it.

After knocking that little guy unconscious, I'll take him back to Seagod Island. I'm sure the High Priest and the Seagod will reward me handsomely.

Thinking of the reward she was about to receive, the sea witch's eyes curved into adorable crescent moons.

"Nine spirit rings, so he's a Title Douluo."

Tian Hao looked at the nine soul rings beneath the sea witch with an expression of understanding, but showed no fear whatsoever.

"Young man, I really can't bear to hurt you. Why don't you come with me to a place obediently, and I guarantee you'll get something good out of it."

The sea witch advised, toying with the sea demon's flute in her hand.

This person is very likely to become the successor of the Sea God. It's best not to offend him if possible, otherwise it won't be fun if he makes things difficult for you in the future.

"You're right, we can't let you do it."

Nodding in deep agreement, Tian Hao expressed his consent, as he himself did not have the habit of letting his opponent make the first move.

In this respect, his philosophy is similar to that of Tang Shenwang. It's fine to spar normally, but if it's a life-or-death battle, then you have to strike first.

Taking the initiative and not giving the enemy a chance to retaliate is the key to victory; if you can kill them with one blow, even better.

"You're so thoughtful, I love you to death."

The sea witch thought the young man opposite her was a wise and sensible man, and her bright green eyes curved into cute crescent moons once again.

Chapter 515 The Divine Song of the Sea

"Mystic Ice Domain!"

"Mystic Ice Seal!"

The moment the sea witch relaxed, Tian Hao suddenly erupted, first using the Snow Dance Extreme Ice Domain as the foundation to evolve a domain power unique to his ultimate Xuanbing Soul Power, and then manipulating the cold air to extend like lightning along the river beneath his feet.

Sensing something was wrong, the sea witch instinctively tried to fly away from the river, but it was too late.

The burst of cold air instantly froze her body stiff. In addition, the ice attribute countered the water attribute, making it difficult for her to quickly recover. Her movements became sluggish, and then more cold air surged up, freezing her even more.

This created a vicious cycle, and within seconds the entire thing was frozen into a large block of ice.

Moreover, the chilling aura contained a powerful sword intent that was difficult to suppress even with one's own soul pressure, making it impossible to break free.

"A water-attribute soul master dares to fight me, an ice-attribute soul master, in this kind of environment. Who gave you the courage?"

Stepping onto the ice, Tian Hao looked at the plump beauty frozen in ice with great interest, finding the girl adorably silly.

This environment is advantageous to you, but even more advantageous to me.

If they weren't on the river, it would have taken him quite a bit of effort to capture the girl.

The frozen sea witch couldn't move her entire body except for her eyes, which she could move slightly.

Not only is her body frozen, but her soul power is also frozen, so she can't resist anymore.

Without delay, he quickly used the mark between his eyebrows as a basis to send a distress signal to Hailong and the others.

This time we've really messed up. We can only wait for Brother Hailong and the others to come and rescue us. Hopefully, we can hold out until then.

"Your mental strength is not weak, and you also have a martial soul of this musical instrument type. You are a soul master who leans towards mental talent, right?"

After examining the Sea Demon Flute Martial Soul, Tian Hao couldn't help but think of how the future Tang God King would treat this person.

Although the Mysterious Heaven Skill can cultivate soul power, its inherent internal energy characteristics are still retained. When it undergoes the Sea Demon Goddess's test in the future, the power of the Mysterious Heaven Skill will still fight against the soul power of the Blue Silver Grass. It is suppressed and fused under the influence of the Sea Demon Goddess's ninth soul skill, the Sea Suppressing Divine Song, and it is a perfect fusion.

Of course, this is essentially a guidance and operation of the Sea God's divine will within the Sea God's Heart, which can be considered as helping Tang San cultivate, to integrate the Blue Silver Grass soul power with the Xuan Tian Gong power, so that he can better bear the Sea God's divine position.

After all, the Sea God's position is at the level of a first-level main god, and it would be a bit difficult for the Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul to bear it alone. Strengthening it with the Mysterious Heaven Technique would be just right.

However, it must be admitted that the Sea Witch's ninth soul skill has a good auxiliary effect in fusing alien energy, which is somewhat similar to the Qingxin Pushan Mantra that Ren Yingying played for Linghu Chong in The Smiling, Proud Wanderer. This is exactly what I need at this stage.

Thinking of this, Tian Hao withdrew the ultimate Xuanbing soul power from the frozen river, and even the ice that sealed the sea witch dissipated, leaving only the part that had frozen her soul power. He even further injected the ultimate Xuanbing soul power to completely freeze and seal her water attribute soul power.

"Liar, big liar!"

Having gained her freedom, the sea witch had no soul power to maintain her body. With a splash, she fell into the water, revealing her upper body and glaring angrily at someone as if that person were an unforgivable villain.

He just said he wouldn't lay a hand on me, but then suddenly broke his promise and attacked. He's a complete liar.

"Where did I lie to you? What I just said was that I couldn't let you make a move, which meant I wouldn't give you the chance to make a move. After all, you're a Title Douluo. Even if your attributes are countered, it will still be very difficult to fight you."

Standing on the only remaining piece of ice, Tian Hao squatted down and said with a smile.

I really don't know if this sea witch is faking it or if it's just her nature. This childlike innocence is even more pure than that of Fifth Grandfather Guangling, and she's adorably silly.

"You... I don't care, you're a big liar."

The speechless sea witch grew even angrier, turning her face away angrily to avoid looking at that hateful face.

"Girl, get your facts straight. You are my prisoner now, so watch your tone when you speak."

Moreover, your fish tail doesn't look like it's possessed by a martial soul, and it even has a bit of a soul beast aura. Could you be a legendary 100,000-year-old soul beast that has taken human form?

"Just what I needed: a 100,000-year spirit ring and a spirit bone. You've come at the perfect time."

In the end, Tian Hao showed an excited little expression, even pointing the blade of his Xuanbing Spear at the Sea Witch.

"Don't kill me! I'm not a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form. I'm a mermaid, not a soul beast."

Seeing the gun blade pointed at her, the sea witch was startled and quickly waved her hands to explain that there were so many delicious and fun things in the world, and she didn't want to die here.

"Mermaids? I feel like I've heard of them somewhere before?"

Stopping the Xuanbing Gun, Tian Hao pretended to be deep in thought, and after a while, he seemed to remember something and suddenly realized something.

“I remember now, a few years ago an auction house auctioned a mermaid. It was bought by a nobleman, and then I heard that it was played with to death very quickly. The fish tail was even cut off and used to serve guests.”

This time, Tian Hao wasn't lying; this really happened.

This is also the dark side of the rule that the strong are respected. Human trafficking is legal in the Douluo Continent, and the powerful and wealthy class especially take pride in buying special slaves.

The slaves purchased included Soul Masters and ordinary humans, with beautiful women being the hardest hit.

In this world, if a commoner has a beautiful face, it's definitely not a good thing. There's a high chance they'll be targeted by slave hunters, captured, sold, or auctioned off to the powerful and wealthy.

Some people have twisted and perverse minds and do things that ordinary people cannot understand. It is true that they bought the mermaid, played with her until she died, and then made a dish from her tail.

And the person who did this was an acquaintance, an acquaintance who could be exploited.

This kind of intelligence was collected by the Spirit Hall on his behalf, so that it could be used to help them deceive the Sea Witch and Seagod Island. There are many similar cases.

As expected, the sea witch was enraged upon hearing this, and her emerald green eyes became bloodshot.

Who did it?

An angry question. As the current leader of the mermaid clan, protecting her people is her mission, and she absolutely cannot tolerate such a thing.

"He is a prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, and he has a level 99 peak Douluo in charge. You can't even beat me, yet you want to attack Heaven Dou City?"

It was funny. Tian Hao didn't think the Sea Witch could kill Xue Xing. The main problem was that Dugu Bo was a tough hurdle to overcome. Moreover, with the help of Dugu Bo and their own resources, the Heaven Dou Royal Family had not only cultivated several Title Douluos, but also recruited many others. The Sea Witch alone couldn't defeat them.

Not to mention on land, the sea witch's strength is greatly reduced, making her even less of a match for her.

"A prince of the Heavenly Dou Empire? Is he a guy named Xue Xing?"

The sea witch immediately thought of someone. Back in the New Heaven Dou City, she had met Xue Ye's younger brother, and she could tell at a glance that he was no good.

She also secretly followed and observed him. He did indeed like to buy beautiful female slaves to play with, especially some exotic beauties. In his mansion, she found a fox-tailed woman whose martial soul had mutated and manifested on her body. When she saw her, the fox-tailed woman's eyes were hollow and numb, and her will had obviously collapsed.

If the Sea God and the High Priest hadn't wanted to cooperate with the Heavenly Dou Empire at that time, she would have wanted to destroy that Snow Star and rid the people of this scourge.

I never expected that they would persecute our mermaid clan. If I don't kill this person, I, the Sea Witch, am not worthy to be the leader of the mermaid clan!

"You also know Prince Xuexing of the Heavenly Dou Empire."

Tian Hao feigned surprise, but it was indeed Xue Xing who had done it.

According to the intelligence report, it seems that the mermaid refused to yield and even injured Xuexing, which led to her being killed by the enraged Xuexing, who then used the murder to entertain some of her cronies.

It's no secret in aristocratic circles that Prince Xuexing has a penchant for unconventional beauties; he even competed with Ning Fengzhi for a catwoman in the future.

Those in the slave-hunting world know his preferences better, so after obtaining good goods, they usually take them to New Heaven Dou City, because they can offer higher prices there.

That guy used to be more restrained when Emperor Xuesheng was still alive, only doing things in secret. But after Emperor Xuesheng died, he became unscrupulous. Since buying and selling slaves was legal, no one cared.

"It sure is him!"

She was filled with hatred and regretted not killing that villain back then.

"Stop thinking about those things. You are my prisoner now, my slave. Call me master now, or I will sell you to Prince Xue Xing. I believe he will be happy to pay a high price for a mermaid of the title Douluo level to play with."

Tian Hao's shameless threat enraged the sea witch even more, but she was powerless to resist.

"Owner!"

Clenching her teeth, the sea witch reluctantly called out "Master."

There's no other way; when you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. For now, you just need to save your own life and settle accounts with Hailong and the others when they arrive.

"I can't hear you, speak louder."

Tian Hao gestured for her to shout again, which made the sea witch even angrier, more helpless, and more regretful that she had acted rashly and ended up falling into the hands of this big liar.

"Owner!"

The sound grew louder, and the sea witch memorized it all, determined to make this liar sing "Conquer" someday.

"Ok!"

Nodding in satisfaction, Tian Hao reached out and grabbed the sea witch's slender wrist, pulling her out of the water.

“I’ll take you back once you have legs again.”

"My soul power is frozen by you, how can it be restored? You need to unfreeze my soul power first."

She said angrily, while the sea witch was thinking about how to escape from this swindler. To escape, she had to unfreeze her frozen soul power and restore her strength.
