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

Flander became interested in the azure bull python and began to speculate further about Xiao Wu's identity.

As for why those two beasts ran from the Starry Sky Forest to the Sunset Forest, that's not something he should think about; the point is, thinking about it wouldn't make a difference anyway.

Shaking his head slightly, Yu Xiaogang sighed and said, "No one knows the full extent of the Titan Ape's abilities, because almost everyone who has seen the Titan Ape is dead, making it difficult to bring out new information, let alone the even more powerful Azure Bull Python."

Once upon a time, a titled Douluo ventured deep into the Star Dou Great Forest. He believed himself to be powerful enough and wanted to see what the core of the Star Dou Great Forest looked like.

With his overwhelming strength, he finally broke into the core area and was surprised to find that it was no longer a forest, but a huge lake with clear water, surrounded by forest, like a fairyland.

At that time, a soul beast was drinking water by the lake. It was the Titan Giant Ape. The titled Douluo wanted to kill the Titan Giant Ape to obtain its soul bone.

However, in the next instant, a colossal creature rose from the lake. The first thing to emerge was an enormous bull's head, whose soul pressure made even the titled Douluo feel immense pressure. Its body length reached a hundred meters, making it even larger than the Titan Giant Ape.

The most terrifying thing was that the Azure Bull Python could actually speak human language, allowing it to make the Title Douluo leave.

Recounting a secret he had read, Yu Xiaogang still feels awe and excitement when he talks about that kind of soul beast.

Although we don't know what kind of talent or ability that Azure Bull Python possesses, its body is in the form of a python, which is perfect for serving as the ninth soul ring for Little Three Blue Silver Grass.

His research theory is absolutely correct: plant-type martial souls can perfectly support animal-type soul beast soul rings. The first Mandragora Snake soul ring is the best proof, and Xiao San's third soul ring also proves that point.

Therefore, the animal-type Azure Bull Python is definitely suitable, while the Titan Giant Ape is suitable as the soul ring for the Lesser Three Clear Sky Hammer.

If we could obtain the soul rings of those two beings, it would definitely lay a perfect foundation for Xiao San's path to godhood.

Flander was quite shocked, and then asked in bewilderment, "Why haven't I heard you mention these things before?"

Glancing at him coldly, Yu Xiaogang said in a chilling voice, "There are many things you don't know."

Mentioning this made Yu Xiaogang feel very bad, and he couldn't help but think of that woman.

Very few people know this secret; even the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is unaware of it.

Because of the location of their clan's territory, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan mainly hunts for their spirit rings in the Sunset Forest and the far north, rarely going to the Star Dou Great Forest, and therefore knows little about it.

However, Wuhun City is located on the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest, so he knows it quite well. He obtained this information through that woman.

However, the Spirit Hall is too selfish. This kind of information should be spread throughout the entire Spirit Master world to warn those powerful individuals not to venture into the core of the Star Dou Great Forest. This would reduce the occurrence of many tragedies.

What Yu Xiaogang didn't know was that besides him and Flander, there was a third person in the building, but he was invisible and blended into the surrounding environment, which is why he wasn't discovered.

"It's ridiculously naive. They don't understand the greed in people's hearts at all. Spreading that kind of news will not only fail to serve as a warning, but will also send more people to their deaths."

Tian Hao found it amusing that he could sense Yu Xiaogang's thoughts using mind-reading abilities.

This guy's thought process is definitely different from normal people, and it's too superficial. He only thinks about the surface of things and doesn't think about the deeper reasons at all.

"So it seems you didn't know."

Flanders seemed to have confirmed something, his expression enigmatic.

"Know what?"

Yu Xiaogang was puzzled and didn't understand what his best buddy meant.

Is there anything in this world that I don't know?

"That Xiao Wu is a being who transformed into a human from a 100,000-year-old soul beast."

Flander cautiously expanded his soul power to envelop the entire building, preventing any possibility of being spied on or eavesdropped on, before revealing the secret.

He had assumed his friend knew the little beast's identity, but it now seemed he was unaware.

"A 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form?"

Yu Xiaogang was stunned. He instinctively wanted to refute, but then he seemed to think of something, and his expression changed constantly, eventually turning into a gloomy look, even revealing a sinister killing intent.

"That hateful beast, how dare he scheme against my disciple."

With his fists clenched tightly and his face contorted in a ferocious expression, Yu Xiaogang was truly enraged.

"Xiao Gang!"

Noticing that his best friend was in a bad mood, Flander quickly got up and pressed his shoulder down, full of worry.

What's wrong with Xiaogang?

"I just thought of some bad things."

Awakened from his extreme anger by his good brother, Yu Xiaogang took a deep breath and forcefully suppressed his rage.

What happened to make you so angry?

Flander was puzzled, not understanding what could have made his friend so angry.

"You don't know this, but back then, Xiao San and Xiao Wu came to Notting Academy to register on the same day and lived in the same dormitory. Xiao Wu even took the initiative to sleep in the same bed with Xiao San. For this, she drove away a fellow villager who came to register with Xiao San and even injured him."

Afterwards, the girl from Xiao Wu's hometown brought a patrol officer from the Spirit Hall to handle the withdrawal procedures. This officer was the same person who helped Xiao Wu awaken her spirit. When the officer saw that Xiao Wu was unruly, he prepared to teach her a lesson, but Xiao Wu killed him with a hidden weapon.

Fortunately, Sword Douluo suppressed the Spirit Hall's power in the Heaven Dou Empire, forcing them to act according to the rules and preventing the situation from escalating. However, he also set his sights on Xiao San, forcing her to stay at Notting Academy and ruining her reputation.

I was initially puzzled as to why someone like Xiao San would kill a girl she'd only known for less than a day. Now I understand. That little beast wasn't human at all, and her second soul skill was a mental charm—that must be her innate ability.

The more he talked, the angrier he became. Yu Xiaogang wished he could grab that little beast and cut him into a thousand pieces.

He knew that his mistress was the key to proving himself, and he couldn't afford to make any mistakes.

As a result, he was secretly lurking by a beast's side for six years without even realizing it.

Over the past few years, he had felt that his mistress was spoiling that little beast excessively, and now he finally understood that the little beast must have been secretly bewitching his mistress. He deserved to die!

"He really is a beast who deserves to die!"

Flander's expression was also cold; he agreed with his friend's judgment and felt increasingly disgusted and repulsed by Xiao Wu.

If she were truly a little girl, it would be understandable for her to have that kind of personality, but what are you, a beast that has taken human form from a 100,000-year-old soul beast, doing here pretending to be innocent and cute?

As for the deep affection between him and his mistress, that was definitely an act; even a fool could figure that out.

Although the age and lifespan of a soul beast are not necessarily equal, they are generally not too different.

Even if that little beast isn't a hundred thousand years old, he must be tens of thousands of years old. How deep can the feelings he's developed be compared to six years of life?

Not to mention, can the aesthetic sense of a 100,000-year-old soul beast be the same as that of us humans?

Would someone like a brat like a mistress?

It's obviously impossible; that little beast must have some ulterior motive for following his mistress around.

"His Majesty Haotian must have seen through that little beast's identity, so why didn't he expose him?"

Yu Xiaogang was puzzled. He didn't believe that someone like Tang Hao couldn't see through Xiao Wu's true identity, but why didn't he tell him?

"What did His Majesty Haotian say to you about that little beast?"

Flander narrowed his eyes slightly. Although he had some suspicions before, he still wanted to confirm it.

"He told me to ignore that little bastard, especially when it comes to acquiring spirit rings... You mean..."

Recalling Tang Hao's words, Yu Xiaogang suddenly realized something halfway through, and his eyes widened in shock.

"That should be the case. Although we don't know what that little beast is plotting with Xiao San, she herself is a great opportunity. If she were to sacrifice herself, Xiao San could obtain a 100,000-year soul ring and a soul bone without any hidden dangers ahead of time, which would greatly improve him."

Moreover, I suspect that the little beast is related to the Titan Ape and the Azure Bull Python, and perhaps we can plot further against it.

However, we don't need to interfere too much in this matter; I'm sure His Majesty Haotian already has a plan.

Pushing up his glasses, Flander finally confirmed his initial guess: His Majesty Haotian had indeed been plotting against that little beast for a long time.

"Be careful when you face that little beast in the future. Don't reveal any flaws. An old monster that has lived for 100,000 years is not easy to deal with."

After giving his good buddy a serious reminder, Flander dared not let the little beast become wary because of them. If their plans were ruined, they would definitely be beaten to death by Tang Hao.

Yu Xiaogang remained silent, forcefully suppressing his inner excitement.

Originally, he only planned to cultivate Xiao San's Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul in a conventional way, so that he could obtain a 100,000-year Soul Ring when Xiao San reached level 90.

Judging from His Majesty Haotian's intentions, he wants Xiao San to obtain a 100,000-year soul ring sooner.

Once you obtain a 100,000-year spirit ring, your physical attributes and mental strength will increase dramatically. With the mental strength cultivated by Xiao San using the eye-training method, you could directly support a 100,000-year spirit ring if you obtained a few more spirit bones.

With several hundred thousand-year spirit rings at that time, adding spirit rings from super spirit beasts to his second spirit, the Clear Sky Hammer, will be no problem.

“There’s an empty room nearby. You can stay here for the night. Tomorrow I’ll take you to meet the children. From now on, you’ll be in charge of arranging their classes.”

Flander, feeling drowsy, took off his glasses and pinched the bridge of his nose. He then arranged for his best friend to stay, leaving Tian Hao, who was still invisible, somewhat bewildered.

"Was it the butterfly effect I created, or was this simply the nature of my destiny from the beginning?"

Tian Hao was a little confused, not quite understanding why the two of them had suddenly shifted their thinking in such a dangerous way.

He sensed the arrival of his close friend, the master, and specially came down the mountain to greet him. Who would have thought he would hear such a big piece of gossip, the kind that's all show and no substance?

"The plot seems to have taken a bit off track. When did it start?"

As he pondered to himself, Tian Hao didn't care what others thought; what he cared about was the development of the plot and whether he could maintain his advantage of being prescient.

"It seems like the root of the problem lies with me."

After thinking it over, I awkwardly realized that the source of the blame seemed to be myself.

The main reason why Tang San and Xiao Wu had difficulty truly integrating into the team after arriving at Shrek Academy was that their personalities were not very good.

This personality trait stems not only from their own inherent traits but also from the ostracism they faced at Notting Academy and the pressure exerted by the Spirit Hall.

The root of the problem lies in the sacrifice of his alter ego, Tian Boguang. Without the sacrifice of that alter ego, none of the subsequent events would have occurred, and the story would have unfolded as it originally would have.

"King Tang, I didn't mean to trick you."

After figuring it out, Tian Hao felt a little guilty.

He really didn't mean it that way. He just wanted to teach the little rabbit a lesson and make it behave itself and keep a low profile in the human world.

After all, with the emergence of the divine realm's mental power, it is much easier for Soul Masters to cultivate. Soul Masters who were originally at the Soul Douluo level can now cultivate to the Title Douluo level. Once they encounter each other, their identities will inevitably be exposed.

His intention was for the good of the little rabbit, but who would have thought that Tang Shenwang would value the little rabbit so much that he would directly use a hidden arrow, and it was a sneak attack.

Given his disguised identity, he couldn't be stopped, not to mention Tang Hao was hiding nearby watching. He had no choice but to sacrifice himself.

He was forced into this situation.

"There shouldn't be any major problems. As long as we can generally keep going, the details don't matter."

After some thought, Tian Hao decided that there was no major problem. He then sensed his close friend, the master, who was sleeping alone in another room, before returning to the small hill platform behind the village to continue studying chess.

Of course, he didn't neglect his own cultivation either, but everything was done in secret, so others couldn't see it.

On the other side, Yu Xiaogang couldn't sleep, mainly because he was too excited. The thought that his mistress, whom he regarded as his hope, could obtain a 100,000-year soul ring ahead of schedule made him unable to control his excitement.
