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

Hyotei mumbled something, then quickly fell into a deep sleep with her head on his arm. Yuki-tei, on the other side, looked at the man in front of her with a complicated expression.

Although she felt very uncomfortable about being deceived back then, she had to admit that the man was very talented. It was because of this talent that she ultimately chose to marry him, which led to the birth of even more outstanding offspring.

But little did they expect that this was not the man's limit. Ten thousand years later, this man created an even more powerful cultivation method.

Even the Dragon God of yesteryear couldn't compare to this; meeting this man was their good fortune.

Thinking of this, Xue Di turned her body, found a comfortable position, and closed her eyes.

"destiny!"

Holding his two icy-cold wives in his arms, Tian Hao pondered his current battle with fate. He had never had the ability to fight against fate before, but he only barely gained that qualification after becoming the master of the plane.

In particular, he has also gained some control over the power of the river of time, which gives him the right to challenge fate.

Fate can create a chosen one, and it can also create a chosen one of the planes. Gai Dalun is the one it has chosen, and he is only the first one. More chosen ones of the planes will be born in the future.

This is also his authority as the master of the plane: to use the power of an entire plane to fight against the power of fate and see who can have the last laugh.

With a change of heart, Tian Hao began to take stock of his gains.

He had previously taken away the souls of the frozen army, so there was no need to pay too much attention to the legions of ordinary people. He only needed to find an opportunity to revive them and make them his henchmen. The key was the martial souls of the soul masters.

The martial spirit is the greatest advantage and wealth in this world. Although he now has the ability to create a martial spirit at will, the martial spirit created later will inevitably have some differences in compatibility compared to the martial spirit that comes with him innately.

Therefore, the martial soul one is born with is the most suitable. Even if one wants to modify it, one must do so based on the original martial soul.

This army gathered most of the top experts from the four empires. Although the Super Douluo fled immediately when the Ice Emperor and Snow Emperor erupted, and some powerful Title Douluo with special martial souls also fled decisively, there were still many capable people left, all of whom possessed excellent martial souls.

Or rather, any martial soul that can be cultivated to the level of a Title Douluo is bound to be good, and there are many that Tian Hao finds very interesting.

Of course, besides the Title Douluo, there are also some Soul Douluo and Soul Saint martial souls that are quite good. Soon, a martial soul caught Tian Hao's eye.

"The Heaven-Shaking Axe could be modified. I remember there was one at the Imperial Academy. Is it related to this one?"

He opened his palm, and a palm-sized axe floated in his hand—the very martial spirit he had just acquired: the Heaven-Shaking Axe!

By focusing his mind on the soul corresponding to the Heaven-Shaking Axe martial spirit, he searched the other party's memories and soon made an unexpected discovery.

"With such a small population, and every time someone breaks through to the Title Douluo level, they mysteriously disappear? Haotian Sect, could you be any more blatant?"

After examining the memories in the other person's soul, Tian Hao couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark.

The Heaven-Shaking Axe Martial Soul is very powerful, and its quality is equivalent to that of the Clear Sky Hammer. Although it does not have the crushing characteristic of the Clear Sky Hammer, it possesses shock power and is also extremely effective against all offensive Martial Souls.

Moreover, compared to the extremely heavy Haotian Hammer, the Zhentian Axe, while possessing immense power, is also much lighter, which means it can unleash even greater speed.

It is a martial soul that combines power and speed. If it were to compete with the Clear Sky Hammer, it would be hard to say who would win.

Of course, this is just a contest of martial spirits. In addition to martial spirits, the Clear Sky Sect also has many self-created soul skills, from the initial Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique to the Clear Sky Nine-Character Mantra, and then the ultimate Great Sumeru Hammer Ring-Exploding series.

That's equivalent to having several more soul skills, especially the final Great Sumeru Hammer, which is a truly divine skill. Although its usage is simple and brutal, the explosive power it unleashes is truly fierce.

"I need to find a reasonable excuse to bring over the Clear Sky Sect's self-created soul skills again. I need to demonstrate even greater power so that the old aunt and Mu En will take the initiative to increase their forces to surround and kill me."

Tian Hao felt he still had to trick the Clear Sky Sect. The main reason was that the Clear Sky Sect's self-created soul skills were too practical and made people envious. He needed to lure out the people of the Clear Sky Sect, especially those who knew the Great Sumeru Hammer, capture them for research, and then have an excuse to obtain those self-created soul skills. Then, he could use them as a foundation to develop some other self-created soul skills.

There must be a reasonable excuse for this, and the future must be made clear so that the eldest nephew and the Asura God hiding in some unknown corner will see through the problem and become suspicious.

Rather than directly confronting his nephew and the God of Asura, he preferred to secretly plot against them, letting the God of Asura and his nephew know the dangers of the world.

To lure the Haotian Sect members out, he needed to demonstrate some of the power of his Gluttonous King Devouring Beast so that Mu En could gather more people to surround and kill them.

In addition, his disciples and henchmen also need to show their abilities, putting even more pressure on them.

"We need to upgrade Old Zhao's chrysanthemum spear."

Thinking of his disciples and henchmen, Tian Hao thought of Zhao Ju.

Zhao Ju and Zhao Lian'er are the real confidants. The fact that the two of them spent ten years secretly investigating Yang Erlang's disappearance and risked their lives to infiltrate the capital's death row to try to rescue him speaks volumes. How can we not cultivate a group of such confidants?

Zhao Lian'er's martial soul is the lotus, making her a healing-type soul master. Zhao Ju's martial soul is the chrysanthemum spear, a mutated martial soul, but its grade is too low, only considered a mid-level martial soul, with limited potential.

However, potential is not a limitation for him, and this time he also obtained so many powerful martial souls from so many soul masters, many of which can be used to strengthen Zhao Ju's martial soul, enough to cultivate him.

"It's a pity that Lao Zhao's name is Zhao Ju instead of Zhao Xin, otherwise it would be a classic."

After that disappointing experience, Tian Hao turned his thoughts back to the Heaven-Shaking Axe.

This Heaven-Shaking Axe lineage is no ordinary clan. It has a strange characteristic: any clan member who breaks through to the Title Douluo level will mysteriously disappear for various reasons, and it is estimated that they are probably in grave danger.

This must be because they are being targeted by certain forces. It is the Zhen Tian Axe lineage that has threatened certain people and forces. Anyone with a brain can figure out that the one who can be threatened by the Zhen Tian Axe and is also within the territory of the Tianhun Empire must be the Haotian Sect.

This kind of thing is very common in the world of Soul Masters. Ten thousand years ago, some sects often did this. For example, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan would suppress all families and sects with dragon-type martial souls, not only to ensure its own status as the number one dragon-type martial soul sect in the world, but also to protect the limited resource of dragon-type soul beasts.

If there are too many powerful dragon-type spirit masters in the world, then dragon-type spirit beasts will inevitably be hunted down and may even become extinct, which would be fatal to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Since the cake is limited, the only option is to reduce the number of people sharing it.

This principle applies not only to this world, but also to countless other worlds, and is an instinct for survival for all living beings.

Moreover, the Zhen Tian Axe lineage has pledged allegiance to the Tianhun royal family. The power of the Tianhun royal family is not something the Haotian Sect wants to see, so it's normal for them to use underhanded tactics to suppress and weaken them.

This is why, although the Heaven-Shaking Axe Martial Soul is a top-tier Martial Soul, it has never been able to develop properly. Apart from appearing in the Soul Master Competition later on, it has never appeared again in the Destiny Track.

Ironically, this thing is quite famous, even Wang Yan, who leads the Shrek team, knows about it, yet it can't be developed. The reasons behind this are obvious to anyone.

And this person is none other than Jiang Peng's father from the Imperial Academy, a forty-year-old Soul Douluo.

Putting aside those overpowered characters, if one cultivates normally, reaching the Soul Douluo level by the age of forty is already quite impressive, and becoming a Title Douluo is a certainty.

Unfortunately, he was unlucky and perished here while the Heavenly Soul Empire was on its expedition.

Even if he survives this time, he will be targeted by the Clear Sky Sect when he breaks through to the Title Douluo level, and they will find another opportunity to attack him. They may already be on his radar.

"The Clear Sky Sect and the Soul Master world are still so stagnant, constantly fighting amongst themselves. It's no wonder they can't make any significant progress."

He made a complaint, saying that he really disliked the way the Soul Master world operated. It had become a vicious cycle of competition, with little improvement even after tens of thousands of years, which was equivalent to standing still. The threshold for becoming a god was even more restrictive.

As the saying goes, when things are at their worst, they must change; change leads to progress. Now that things have come to this, don't those people know how to be more flexible?

"Jiang Peng is a bit arrogant; he needs to be tempered by some setbacks."

Reflecting on his original fate, Tian Hao became somewhat interested in Jiang Peng, but the young man was arrogant and he didn't like students like that.

Because pride means immaturity, and you're easily targeted and taken advantage of.

That's how it was originally in the course of fate. Because of underestimating the enemy and being careless, they fell into a trap and were then tricked by the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy team. In the final wave of attacks, they lost the game.

This kind of temperament is unacceptable; it needs to be properly tempered.

"Now that we have a knock-off version of the Galactic Force, the God of War of the Nors can train Jiang Peng, and the Light of the Sun can be carried by Tianzhen."

Speaking of which, does the sun have some hidden properties? It seems to have a slightly illogical thought process, just like the solar beam from next door.

Thinking of that naive disciple, Tian Hao couldn't help but ponder the hidden attributes of the sun. The Sun's Light in the neighboring Super God Universe was a bit neurotic, known as the "female lunatic," and this naive disciple here also had a strange personality.

Chapter 734 Imperial Expansion

While thinking about things, Tian Hao accompanied his two wives whom he had not seen for ten thousand years. Only after his wives woke up did he come to the blue silver tree.

Compared to ten thousand years ago, the Blue Silver Tree is now much, much larger, and has broken through the limits, reaching a height of ten thousand meters. Its roots have penetrated the entire Cold Marrow Mine and extended to an unknown distance.

However, the Xuanbing Blue Silver Tree does not simply extract cold marrow ore veins; it also acts as a hub to guide external cold air into the cold marrow ore veins, assisting in the expansion of the ore veins.

After ten thousand years of nurturing and expansion, the current Cold Marrow Mine is more than twice the size it was ten thousand years ago.

"They've grown to this size!"

Looking up at the enormous Xuanbing Blue Silver Tree, Tian Hao never expected that it could grow to such an extent.

"Thanks to the Lord for helping us absorb a large amount of divine power back then. For ten thousand years, we have been assisting in refining divine power, and finally brought it to this level."

The Snow Emperor gently stroked the roots of the Xuanbing Blue Silver Tree, feeling very proud of this achievement built up over ten thousand years.

Is that enough?

The Ice Emperor was more concerned about whether the Mystic Ice Blue Silver Tree could be made into a super artifact. Only with a super artifact in hand could they truly feel at ease. Back then, their lord had asked them to cultivate this Mystic Ice Blue Silver Tree with the idea of ​​using it to forge a super artifact.

"It's still a little short, but it can be connected to the entire Xuanbing Empire's Xuanbing Blue Silver Trees. After a period of nurturing, it should be enough."

As Tian Hao spoke, he flew forward, placed his palm on the crown of the Xuanbing Blue Silver Tree, and began to regulate it, assisting the Xuanbing Blue Silver Tree in completely refining the remaining divine power within it, allowing it to advance further, and then began to transform it.

He had to put on an act when forging the Sacred Knowledge Treasury and the Great Clock of the Universe, and couldn't use his own power. But now that he was on his own turf, there was no need to hide anything, and he could go all out without any problem.

An overwhelming force erupted, quickly taking control of the Xuanbing Blue Silver Tree. It modified every cell in the tree, transforming it into the form of a super calculator, and then networked those cells together to form a super-large matrix.

In fact, using this kind of life form as a carrier to create a supercomputer would be the most perfect solution. Each plant cell can serve as a basic unit, and then they can be networked to form a whole.

At the same time, plants themselves have the characteristic of absorbing energy, which can be used as a basis to absorb energy for power, such as light energy.

In addition, plants have the characteristic of continuous growth, which allows them to expand their scale on their own, essentially enabling them to upgrade themselves.

While qualitative change may be impossible, quantitative change is still achievable.

That wasn't all. Under Tian Hao's control, the roots of the Xuanbing Blue Silver Tree Ancestor spread further, completely connecting with the surrounding Xuanbing Blue Silver Trees, and then using this connection to assimilate and infect them, altering their cellular structure.

Through this continuous outward expansion and assimilation, five days later, tens of millions of Xuanbing Blue Silver Trees of all sizes throughout the entire Xuanbing Empire had been transformed. However, they were only transformed; to make them operational required an astonishing amount of energy, an extremely astonishing amount.

However, once it's running at full capacity, its efficiency is quite astonishing.

"Make sure all the soul beasts hide down there. There will be a lot of commotion going on, and it will get hot for a while at the end."

Tian Hao gave a brief explanation to the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor, then merged his body into the Xuanbing Blue Silver Tree Ancestor, preparing to open the ultra-long-range spatial portal.

The Ice Emperor and Snow Emperor dared not be negligent. They used the Xuanbing Blue Silver Domain to spread their divine sense throughout the entire Xuanbing Empire, and ordered all the soul beasts to hide in the glacier caves.

Although they didn't know what was going on, all the soul beasts obediently hid deep in the ice cave. Titan Snow Demon King, who was stationed at the Xuanbing Great Wall, turned his head in confusion, but did not return and remained stationed at the Xuanbing Great Wall.

After all the soul beasts hid inside the glacier caves, Tian Hao manipulated the Xuanbing Blue Silver Domain, which covered the entire Xuanbing Empire, to expand outwards, quickly crossing the Xuanbing Great Wall.

At the same time, countless thick roots spread from the ground, and every now and then a new root would emerge, sprout and grow, quickly transforming into a Xuanbing Blue Silver Tree.

Tian Hao is expanding. The original Xuanbing Empire was only located on the permafrost line, accounting for only half of the entire far north. Now, he is continuing to expand, aiming to encompass the entire far north.

Fortunately, the climate in the far north is too harsh for human habitation, and given the previous wars, even if there were people, they would have already migrated south and fled, making it a perfect place for expansion.

That wasn't all. Tian Hao wasn't just expanding southward; he was also expanding in three other directions, especially to the north and west.

Because the northern oceans are colder, they are well-suited for condensing into glaciers, while the western side is the icy sea of ​​the Sun and Moon Continent, which is also suitable for expansion.

The ocean was rapidly frozen, and the purified water was solidified into hard, dark ice glaciers, which continued to thicken and expand.

After half a month, once the suitable areas were frozen, the far north had increased tenfold, its overall area being twice the size of the present-day Douluo Continent.

Such large-scale glacier formation has significantly lowered sea levels, shocking all human powers. However, due to their previous crushing defeat, they dared not investigate and could only observe from afar, while secretly harboring resentment towards the person who provoked the Xuanbing Empire.
