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

Why waste time on a shortcut that has no hidden dangers?

This is also a major reason why he specifically invited Yue Guan to join the Spirit Hall. Otherwise, without Yue Guan's guidance, given the almost zero compatibility between his second spirit and the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, it would be difficult to integrate his spirit power into it, let alone achieve a transformation.

Not to mention that the Vajra Soul Power Meditation Method was developed through continuous modifications based on the Yue Guan family's meditation method and the Golden Crocodile Douluo's meditation method. Otherwise, it would have taken Tian Hao a considerable amount of time to develop such a meditation method on his own.

In this way, using Yue Guan as a medium, he merged his soul power with the immortal herb Qi Rong Tong Tian Ju, and through this process, he continuously transformed and refined it, gradually solidifying this new attribute into his soul power.

After circulating like this for half a day, the metallic element was finally initially solidified, allowing it to continuously cultivate and improve.

This is equivalent to a seed. With this as a foundation and the special nature of the meridians, it can continuously transform non-attribute soul power into metal-attribute soul power, and even directly absorb the metal-attribute elemental power between heaven and earth.

"Next, we need to change our martial soul and create a metal-attribute leaf."

Feeling the metallic soul power flowing within his body, Tian Hao knew that the first step had been completed, and the next step was to modify his martial soul and endow it with metallic attributes.

"This time, without the help of the Angel God, I have to modify my Soul Rings. I need to accumulate Metal-attribute Soul Power first, and then use the medicinal power of the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum to shape Metal-attribute Soul Rings after I reach level 20."

"Congratulations, brother, on cultivating your metal-attribute soul power."

Yue Guan also sensed that the metal-type soul power in Tian Hao's body had stabilized, and couldn't help but congratulate him.

Although we had done many simulations before, they were just simulations, and it was uncertain whether they would succeed. But now it has really succeeded, which is equivalent to creating a completely new system.

Although it is still in its early stages, it has already shown extraordinary potential.

"Thanks to the great help of the Matchmaker, I will never forget it."

With sincere gratitude, Tian Hao was very fortunate to have found Yue Guan; otherwise, it would have taken who knows how long to complete this step.

With this foundation, sooner or later one can cultivate to the point of being indestructible, and without the exclusivity of directly consuming immortal herbs and elixirs, one can continue to cultivate with the help of other immortal herbs and elixirs.

Not far away, Golden Crocodile Douluo, who was drinking tea, sensed the changes in Tian Hao's soul power and became increasingly interested in the potential of that meridian.

He knew very well that Tian Hao himself did not have the metal element, but he had acquired the metal element from scratch through meridian cultivation, just like the Holy Light Soul Power last time.

"The meridians do indeed have mysterious potential; I had overlooked this aspect before."

Sensing the meridians within his body, Golden Crocodile Douluo felt he needed to intensify his research in this area, as it might be a breakthrough for him to reach level ninety-nine.

"The Vajra Shield also needs to be studied in depth through the meridians. I hope that I can eventually cultivate an indestructible golden body."

Golden Crocodile Douluo was full of anticipation for this move, condensing a spherical shield with his metal-attribute soul power in his palm.

I was indeed too impatient before, wanting to achieve an indestructible golden body in one step. Compared to that, this gradual cultivation method is more reliable. At least I have successfully taken the first step, and I just need to continue to improve.

"First, condense a metal-attribute soul core!"

After dispelling the Vajra Shield, Golden Crocodile Douluo knew very well that his first priority at this stage was to condense a metal-attribute soul core. Once the metal-attribute soul core was condensed, his soul power recovery speed would be further enhanced.

Even the angelic divine sense mentioned that if this kind of soul core absorbs enough divine power, it can evolve into a divine core like a divine beast. That would be a path to godhood, which would be very suitable for a beast-type soul master like himself.

Chapter Seventy-Three: The Holy Light Sword

Tian Hao did not stay in the Angel Clan's territory. After his metal-attribute soul power had completely stabilized, he returned home and engaged in three fierce battles on land, sea, and air with his Aunt Ling Yuan, whose heart was filled with raging flames.

"Tomorrow you will come with me to the Angel Clan's territory. That Fiery Apricot Tree is very suitable for you. Cultivating with it will greatly benefit your Martial Soul."

Furthermore, you can use the chilling energy of the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass to help you quickly cultivate your innate stimuli.

As he felt the silky smoothness of Dove chocolate and the elasticity of a balloon in his palm, Tian Hao said.

He had actually wanted Ling Yuan to cultivate with the help of the Fiery Apricot, but that thing was not a gentle immortal herb; it contained extremely domineering fire poison.

Although following Tang San's approach, consuming both the Fiery Apricot Blossom and the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass would counteract the damage from the fire poison, Ling Yuan's martial soul is purely fire-attribute. If she were to use the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass to acquire ice-attribute soul power, it would likely cause an explosion.

Therefore, that path was not suitable for Ling Yuan. During this period, whenever he had free time, he would invite Yue Guan to study how to avoid the fire poison of Liehuo Xingjiaoshu. It wasn't until recently that a solution was found.

Anyway, they didn't directly consume the Fiery Apricot Elixir; they were just using its medicinal power to transform their soul power.

In addition, the cold poison of the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass is needed to stimulate the Spirit Kite to cultivate its instinctive stimulation method, allowing its soul power to circulate autonomously.

Ling Yuan is already a Soul Saint, so it's not easy to give her enough stimulation for her soul power and martial soul. Even if she went to the extreme cold of the far north, it wouldn't be enough for her to quickly cultivate the Instinct Stimulation Method. It would probably take several years for her to cultivate it.

However, the cold poison of the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass is different; it can help the Spirit Kite cultivate more efficiently, but one has to suffer some hardships along the way.

"Have you thought of a way to cure the fire poison?"

Ling Yuan asked weakly, "I was exhausted from all that earlier. I've fainted several times already, and now I feel completely powerless."

As for the Fiery Apricot Tree, she was quite familiar with it. In fact, the young man had let her come into contact with it back in the Sunset Forest. However, even with her soul power level, she was unable to resist its domineering fire poison and had to give up for the time being.

"I've developed a method, but the cultivation of the Fiery Apricot Blossom will have to wait. First, I'll use the cold poison of the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass to help you cultivate the Instinct Stimulation Method."

Nodding, Tian Hao had been taking this matter very seriously.

After all, Lingyuan was his first woman, so he naturally had to arrange for her to have something good as soon as possible.

"Actually, that cockscomb phoenix palm would also suit you well."

Tian Hao mentioned another immortal herb, which was also suitable for Ling Yuan, and was even gentler, allowing her to cultivate directly with it.

"But my martial soul is more drawn to the Fiery Apricot Blossom."

Ling Yuan trusted her intuition. Her contact with the fiery apricot blossom had made her martial soul exceptionally active, clearly indicating that the latter was more suitable for her.

"We can have both."

Tian Hao laughed and said, "As an adult, I naturally want them all."

"I'll listen to you!"

With her cheek pressed against the young man's chest, Ling Yuan felt incredibly happy.

Choosing this little man was definitely the right decision. Not only is he incredibly powerful in combat, allowing her to experience the wonders of life, but he can also provide such assistance in her cultivation. He's truly a treasure of a little man.

Her fighting power was so strong that she could hardly defend herself each time, leaving her in a sorry state.

After spending some time with Ling Yuan, Tian Hao sent her to the Angel Clan's territory for secluded cultivation. He then returned to the basement of the villa, took out a special metal he had selected from the Angel Clan, and began to forge and purify it with a hammer.

He had a hypothesis that required the use of special metals, which was also a new approach to cultivating the second martial soul.

After three days of continuous hammering, the energy within the special metal was finally activated, resulting in a shimmering, magical phenomenon.

Without hesitation, he poured the blood he had prepared earlier onto it. After a series of hissing sounds, the originally reddish metal ingot turned white, and even emitted a faint white halo on its surface.

This special metal contains a rich elemental power of light, which is highly compatible with Holy Light Soul Power. Using it to forge a longsword will greatly enhance the effect of Holy Light Soul Power.

Without pausing, the metal ingot was reheated until it was red-hot, and slowly forged into the shape of a longsword.

This step is quite complex and must be completed in one go.

Unlike other sword forging techniques, his swords are forged as a single piece. The blade, hilt, and guard are all made from a single piece of material. This is to maximize the conductivity of soul power within the material, so it needs to be forged in one go.

Fortunately, he had already carved a hilt mold out of tungsten steel. He only needed to create a rough shape for the hilt and guard, then put it into the mold to forge and press it, and then imprint the exquisite patterns on it, which made things much easier.

Otherwise, it would be too difficult to forge those exquisite patterns with a hammer.

After crafting the most difficult parts—the hilt and guard—comes next to the blade.

Ordinary blacksmiths use whetstones to polish and sharpen the blade, but highly skilled blacksmiths forge the blade directly with a hammer, even forging the edge, without needing to polish it at all.

Tian Hao barely reached this level, but he achieved it through powerful mental strength.

His powerful mental strength not only allows him to perceive flaws in the sword's material, but also to identify uneven areas on the blade, which he can then focus on forging and adjusting until it is perfect.

"Indeed, it's more suitable than the Jianjun Sword."

Holding the cooled longsword, Tian Hao channeled his holy light soul power into it, and the smooth feeling was very comfortable.

As expected, soul power with special attributes requires a corresponding special metal to conduct and carry it in order to achieve a perfect match.

"The next step is going to be tough; we'll have to find a guinea pig to test it out!"

While wielding and playing with the Holy Light Sword, Tian Hao pondered his next attempt.

His second martial soul is too fragile to try. It's best to find a tool to test it on first, and then put it on himself after collecting enough data and successfully verifying it.

"I wonder if Sister Ruyi likes this kind of holy light sword."

Stroking his chin, Tian Hao's thoughts turned to his fiancée.

He was very satisfied with the older sister chosen by Qian Daoliu and the others, as both her looks and figure met his aesthetic standards.

Most importantly, he urgently needs an older sister from the angel race to marry and become one of his own. Only then can he bring out his creative ideas and plans to work out, lest he be subjected to a melodramatic scenario like "his merits overshadow his master, how can he tolerate others snoring beside his bed?"

"It's a pity that the future angel goddess is gone; she was the best candidate."

As I thought about it, I couldn't help but think of that future angel goddess, and I felt a pang of regret.

Although it changed Bibi Dong's fate, it also eliminated the future angel goddess, making this Douluo Continent series lose much of its luster.

If Qian Renxue existed, she would be my perfect golden leg, not only receiving the full support and protection of Qian Daoliu and Qian Xunji, but also being nurtured into a new generation of angel goddess.

Although Qian Ruyi is also very good, she is not the daughter of Qian Daoliu or Qian Xunji, so she is somewhat inferior. Moreover, her martial soul is only a four-winged holy angel, which is a level lower than the six-winged holy angel martial soul.

Chapter Seventy-Four: Planning Ahead

"I don't know what the standards are for the nine tests of angels. Maybe if I make some plans, I can let my wife inherit the position of angel."

Tian Hao felt that since Qian Renxue was gone, he should create a new angel goddess, and his fiancée would be quite good.

After all, even if Qian Renxue were to be born, she would have to grow up slowly and it would take her twenty or thirty years to become a god.

With the world undergoing tremendous changes, who knows when the gods will descend? They need to become stronger as soon as possible, and inheriting the position of an angel god and creating an angel god is the most direct and fastest way to become powerful.

With a first-level main god in charge, we can have a certain level of confidence even when facing the gods of the divine realm.

Moreover, with a new generation of angel goddess as his wife backing him up, he will have no more worries.

In fact, he had always been worried. Although he had a good relationship with Qian Xunji and others at the moment, it was just a business partnership. If there was a conflict of interest in the future, it was hard to say what would happen to Qian Daoliu, but Qian Xunji would definitely turn against him without hesitation.

Even setting aside any conflict of interest, the fact that he himself would demonstrate sufficient strength or even just potential in the future could change Qian Xunji's mind.

After all, he wasn't from the angel race, nor was he Qian Xunji's biological child, and even if he were, it might not be reliable.

Looking back at the history of feudal dynasties, how many princes and grandsons were distrusted by emperors?

Therefore, following a ruthless and ambitious figure like Qian Xunji doesn't necessarily guarantee peace of mind; it's a matter of character and magnanimity.

Regardless of the original Douluo Continent novel, based on his understanding, Qian Xunji was undoubtedly a qualified leader, and could even be called a ruthless and ambitious figure.

It's really hard to guess what those in power are thinking; the saying "serving a ruler is like serving a tiger" perfectly illustrates this point.

I need to prepare early and find a more reliable sugar daddy to cling to, and he must be from the angel race. As it stands, my fiancée is the only one I can have a close relationship with right now.
