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

Thanks to the strong mental talents of the mermaid race, coupled with her own powerful mental strength, photographic memory was nothing special for her.

It took a full half hour to finish flipping through all the notes and writing them down, but that was all. There was still a long way to go before one could truly understand, integrate, and cultivate the knowledge.

"There's no need to look secretly. As my slave, you have the right to peruse my notes."

Just then, a voice came from behind, startling the already guilty sea witch. She turned around and found that someone had already gotten up from the desk.

"Starting sword training as soon as possible will greatly benefit your mental strength. I look forward to you developing your ninth soul skill to be even stronger."

Tian Hao put the notebook back on the bookshelf, offered words of encouragement, and expressed his anticipation.

Of course, what he really wanted to know was whether Tang Shenwang would still be able to deal with the enhanced version of the Sea Witch so easily in the future.

He even wanted to create a spirit-type soul skill tailored for the Sea Witch so that the future Tang God King could have a taste of it. This would at least cut off her chance to completely integrate the Xuan Tian Gong and Blue Silver Grass soul power through the Zhenhai Divine Song, slowing down her ascension to godhood and giving their Spirit Hall more time to develop stealthily.

"Hmph! Once I cultivate sword intent, you will definitely not be able to withstand my Zhenhai Divine Melody."

With a soft hum, the sea witch was full of confidence in herself.

That big liar was right before; his mental strength was indeed a bit loose. If he could refine his mental strength by cultivating sword intent and sword dao, he would definitely be more powerful when he used it to perform the Zhenhai Divine Song. He could definitely take down that big liar and make him kneel down and sing the song "Conquer" from the Illusionary Sound Academy.

The sea witch couldn't help but laugh at the thought of a future big liar kneeling down and singing "Conquer," but to Tian Hao, it seemed like she was being silly.

"There are complete living facilities here, enough for you to live here for a period of time."

You're a smart person. You just unleashed your Martial Soul True Form and are currently in a weakened state. If someone sees you like this, you know what will happen.

Leaving behind a message, Tian Hao walked towards the cave entrance, dispersing the frozen Xuanbing (mysterious ice) to prepare to return to Huanyin Academy for final arrangements.

"Are you going to sneak into the Illusionary Sound Academy to learn again?"

The Sea Witch couldn't help but ask. She had just gleaned some insights from those notes. The reason that big liar appeared at the foot of the Illusionary Sound Academy under that identity was definitely to facilitate his infiltration and steal their swordsmanship.

"How did you know?"

Stopping in his tracks, Tian Hao turned his head to the side.

“I also spent quite a bit of time at the Illusionary Sound Academy. They don’t pass on their Holy Spirit Sword Techniques to outsiders. Besides, the Holy Spirit Sword Techniques in your notebook are incomplete; they’re missing quite a bit. It’s obvious that it wasn’t obtained through legitimate means.”

The sea witch pulled out a notebook from the bookshelf, waved it around, and said smugly.

She had already suspected that this big swindler was up to something by selling shaved ice in such a low-key manner, but she only realized what was going on after seeing those notes.

Seeing that the person remained silent, the Sea Demon Goddess's expression changed, and she asked with puzzlement, "Why don't you openly and honestly join the Illusionary Sound Academy? With your qualifications, they certainly wouldn't refuse you."

This is something she doesn't understand. Although she has only fought that big liar twice, she can see how powerful he is.

Not only does it possess the ultimate ice, but it has also cultivated a matching ultimate domain, causing her to be instantly affected.

Moreover, his sword intent cultivation is terrifying; even his strongest Zhenhai Divine Melody could not shake it. This is definitely the level of a prodigy, even more terrifying than the prodigies who appeared before.

If the Illusionary Sound Academy discovers this person's existence, they will definitely take him in and give him special training. Then he can choose whatever he wants to learn.

"That's not a question a slave like you should ask."

With a cold reply, Tian Hao stepped out and casually conjured up some mysterious ice to seal the cave entrance.

"I am not your slave. Also, could you steal the Seven Transformations of Awakening? I want to see if it can strengthen my Sea-Suppressing Divine Song."

The sea witch instinctively refuted this, then expressed her interest in the Seven Transformations.

She had been envious of the Seven Transformations of Love ever since she learned about it; it suited her perfectly.

Unfortunately, that is the supreme sword technique in the Illusionary Sound Academy, on par with the Holy Spirit Sword Technique. Not to mention an outsider like myself, even the students there find it difficult to learn.

"I wonder if he heard it."

Seeing that the cave entrance was sealed again, the sea witch muttered something, then wondered why that person didn't join the Illusionary Sound Academy.

"Is there a grudge between you?"

The first thing that comes to mind is hatred. There must be a reason why that big liar didn't join the Illusionary Sound Academy but instead resorted to this method of stealing knowledge. The most likely reason is that he has a grudge against some important figure in the Illusionary Sound Academy or the Sword Sect, and it's inconvenient for him to expose himself.

Chapter 516 Script Tricks

After leaving the specially established outpost, Tian Hao returned to the Illusionary Sound Academy and used the spatial abilities of the Void Mirror to get home. His wife wasn't there, but his two girlfriends were diligently cultivating.

"Today is the last day. Afterwards, I will be leaving for a period of time to carry out a mission. Lan'er, after you finish your training, return to Tianshui Academy to prepare. At that time, I will represent Tianshui Academy in the competition under the name Hai Bodong."

He briefly explained that Tian Hao was no longer satisfied with simply dominating the opponents; the Prodigy Project needed to become increasingly spectacular, drawing the attention of everyone, all forces, and even the gods of the divine realm to the Prodigy.

"what about me?"

Yingmei looked at someone with resentment, "Have you forgotten me, you heartless bastard?"

"I haven't cultivated fire-attribute soul power yet, so I can't use my clone to fight on behalf of Blazing Fire Academy. I'll put it in the next class."

With a gentle smile, Tian Hao naturally wouldn't show favoritism, but since he hadn't yet cultivated fire-attribute soul power, the special effects he used would be somewhat inferior.

After he has mastered the water attribute, he will cultivate the fire attribute next time, so that the ice and fire attributes can form a duality within his body, which will have a better effect.

"Next, I will help you remove the spirit beast rings from your bodies, restore your martial spirits to their pure state, and then put blank spirit rings on you. After that, you can ask Yuehua for guidance on your cultivation; she will teach you."

Lan'er, I will also infuse your martial soul with the Phoenix's chilling energy and a bit of the Ice Phoenix martial soul's essence, guiding it to evolve into an Ice Phoenix.

"Mei'er, your martial soul evolution will take time. Follow my instructions and practice the fusion technique with Yuehua to imprint her talent domain onto your martial soul. That's the key to your martial soul's evolution."

He explained his plans, saying that Tian Hao would put on a show to infiltrate Poseidon Island and would not have any further contact with the two of them for a while, as some things needed to be arranged.

"Ok!"

The two women nodded obediently. Having witnessed the man's true power, they unconditionally supported his cultivation.

"Let's go cook!"

After chatting for a while, Yingmei gave him a sweet kiss and then headed to the kitchen.

Lan Luan hesitated for a moment, then mustered up her courage and leaned in for a kiss before blushing and following her into the kitchen.

Although she's been through it all, Lanluan still finds it hard to let go in matters of the heart, a personality trait that makes her unlike Yingmei.

Watching the two women busy in the kitchen, Tian Hao sat down on the sofa and pondered the next part of the script.

The Light Feather Douluo, who would then cultivate alongside the three cannon clones of Light and Dark Luo in the Wheel Sea Secret Realm, would then emerge.

"Previously, there were subtle fluctuations of divine consciousness transmitted from the divine test mark between the sea witch's eyebrows. It should have been a distress signal, which, theoretically, should have been detected by us angel gods."

"I'd like to trouble you, Fifth Grandfather, to make a trip there, act as if you've been sent on a patrol, and then unexpectedly discover the Sea Witch and her supporters, thus setting the stage for my entry."

Previously, when the sea witch activated the divine test mark between her eyebrows to ask for help, he, who possessed divine sense, could naturally sense that barely perceptible fluctuation, which was exactly what he had been waiting for.

However, we still need to guide the market before it becomes easier for people to enter.

"Have you ever had any designs on that sea witch? She's also a mental power type."

Guangling picked up a piece of fruit from the table, took a bite, and teased, "After learning that the mental power of the God Realm has an extremely strong effect on the cultivation of spiritual power and can lead directly to godhood, they began to pay attention to soul masters with spiritual power talent."

For example, Tang Yuehua, and the Sea Witch is undoubtedly a Soul Master who mainly cultivates spiritual power. It's just a pity that she doesn't have a cultivation method, and the passive growth is too slow.

However, this spiritual talent is enough to make him the most promising among the seven guardians of the Sea God's Sacred Pillars, on par with that Sea Delusion Douluo, and his future potential is not low.

"Fifth Grandfather, do you think it's possible for you, as a believer of my God, to betray my God?"

Instead of answering, Tian Hao asked a strange question.

"You want to turn those seven Holy Pillar Douluos against you?"

Guangling was taken aback for a moment, then realized what was happening.

Having spent so much time with this adopted grandson, he understood his character fairly well. He knew that the question wasn't about whether he could truly betray his faith, but rather that he had ulterior motives.

Given the ongoing plans, it's easy to guess what they're after.

Is it possible?

Tian Hao couldn't say for sure, mainly because he wasn't a true believer and couldn't understand the mindset of believers, let alone the concept of faith.

"We are also human beings, with our own will, thoughts, and emotions."

We are utterly loyal to the angels, even willing to sacrifice our lives without hesitation. But to say that we would never betray our faith under any circumstances, no matter what happens, is something even the highest priest couldn't guarantee 100%.

After a moment of silence, Guangling shared her opinion.

Nothing in this world is absolute. He couldn't say that he would never betray his faith, and loyalty is just a matter of not having enough incentive to betray someone.

If a divine king's throne were placed before him, but the price was for him to abandon his faith, could he still hold fast to his faith?

Therefore, no one can predict the future, and loyalty is something that cannot withstand the test of time.

What are you planning to do?

After quickly finishing the fruit in his hand, Guangling asked seriously, wanting to see what kind of dark and despicable ideas this cheap grandson had.

"That Tang San was an inheritor created by the God of Asura, but the foundation for us Soul Masters to inherit a divine position lies in our Martial Soul. In other words, theoretically speaking, Tang San can bear two divine positions."

The only spirit that is compatible with the Asura Godhood is undoubtedly the Clear Sky Hammer spirit, but there is also the Blue Silver Grass spirit, which has some compatibility with the Sea Godhood.

The fact that Poseidon Island secretly supported the Heavenly Dou Empire in the past proves that it has some designs on our continent, so Poseidon will inevitably be eager to cultivate a successor.

This is precisely an exploitable flaw; I've taken this opportunity during my trip to Poseidon Island to plant some hidden flags.

After briefly explaining his thoughts, Tian Hao revealed that he did indeed have some ideas about the Seven Sacred Pillar Douluo, especially the Sea Demon Douluo and the Sea Maiden Douluo.

This is just a concept. Whether it can be realized depends on whether the Sea God attaches enough importance to that Tang God King. As long as he attaches enough importance to him, he can use this as a basis to create points of conflict.

"You can do whatever you want, we'll all back you up."

Guangling didn't intend to waste his brain cells on this; he wasn't cut out for it.

After saying that, he got up, manipulated the light to become invisible, and left to pave the way for his adopted grandson.

After Guangling left for a while, Tang Yuehua, who had been busy all day, returned. The family of four had a sumptuous dinner, followed by a fierce battle between one against three.

Through the Soul Fusion Technique in a dual cultivation state, Tian Hao gained control over the Shadow Charm Soul. With the powerful control of his divine sense, he peeled off the Soul Beast Soul Rings from the Soul Charm one by one and created blank white Soul Rings to fill them. At the same time, he guided a small portion of the Soul Charm's essence to merge into it, stabilizing the Soul Rings.

This blank spirit ring is just a foundation. Next, Yingmei only needs to use her own sword intent and soul power to shape it into a sword dao spirit ring and continuously improve it.

However, these blank spirit rings are not as good as the previous spirit beast spirit rings, especially since they are based on Ying Mei's martial spirit origin. After the replacement, Ying Mei's spirit power level plummeted to level 70.

Fortunately, it's only a temporary decrease; it can be quickly restored by replenishing soul power.

With the dantian space that Tian Hao helped Ying Mei open up now, it won't take long for her to recover.

After settling things off with Yingmei and sending her to the Western Paradise for a dreamlike experience, Tian Hao held Lanluan in his arms. After some exercise, he helped her integrate the Phoenix Cold Qi and a small amount of Phoenix Martial Soul essence that he had secretly extracted.

Although the Phoenix Martial Soul's origin is only a tiny, insignificant amount, it is enough to serve as a catalyst. With the added blessing of the Phoenix's chilling energy, it is not difficult to trigger the evolution of Lan Luan's Condensed Water Flying Phoenix Martial Soul.
