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

"Shao Zhe!"

Long Xiaoyao rushed forward to help his grandson up, but seeing his grandson's rapidly festering body, he was heartbroken.

He knew his grandson probably wouldn't survive this ordeal.

It's not just his grandson who's suffering; he's suffering a lot right now too.

He had already suffered a wave of strange power attacking and eroding him in Mingdu, and was severely injured. He had just suffered some more, pushing his body to the brink of collapse.

If he hadn't been a level 100 god, he would have perished long ago.

Xuanzi and Du Busi were also coughing up blood; they had been injured again, exacerbating their already severe internal injuries.

"Dean!"

Beibei and the others, who had just realized what was happening, were shocked and tried to come over, but Xuanzi blasted the air and sent them flying.

"Don't come any closer, we're all poisonous."

He hurriedly spoke up to remind him, as Xuanzi could vaguely sense the strange power within him, which was not only rapidly eroding his body but also radiating outwards.

They're finished, but we can't let Beibei and the others get dragged into this.

That was Shrek's last hope.

Although Beibei and the others were extremely anxious after getting up, they didn't know what to do and could only stand there anxiously.

"I, Du, have lived a life of great achievements, but I never imagined that I would end up here, and even become a sinner of the sect."

While coughing up blood, Du Bu Si was filled with immense regret and hatred, particularly towards Shrek Academy.

Shrek is toxic!

He had hoped to expand the Body Sect and make it the number one sect in the world, but who would have thought that it would be wiped out and that he, the sect leader, would soon die.

"Elder Long, Elder Xuan, Elder Du, I have a way to help you survive in an unconventional way."

Dai Yuhao personally experienced the erosion of his body by that strange power and the rapid loss of his life force. He immediately realized that the situation of the others could not be delayed for long, and decisively said that there was a way to survive.

Although that state was terrible, it was still better than dying immediately.

"Quickly, give it to Shao Zhe, he can't hold on much longer."

Long Xiaoyao immediately realized what was happening and quickly carried his grandson Yan Shaozhe to Dai Yuhao.

Dai Yuhao didn't dare to delay and used his soul power to cast necromancy, drawing on the power of the underworld to corrupt Yan Shaozhe's body.

That's right, his method was to turn everyone into undead, so that at least they could survive.

However, his own soul power level was too low to quickly transform a super Douluo like Yan Shaozhe, so he could only rely on the power of the undead plane.

The idea was good, and Yan Shaozhe was successfully transformed. However, although his body was transformed into a ghost, the nuclear radiation was not eliminated and continued to damage his cell structure and even his genetic material, causing Yan Shaozhe's body to continue to rot, and his internal organs could even be seen.

It was a kind of destruction at the cellular level, and even Dai Yuhao's display of the Flame of Life was of no use.

After all, the repair provided by the Flame of Life only promotes cell division and accelerates the self-healing process; it does not restore damaged cells and remains powerless against such damage.

In the end, only the soul and the martial spirit remained, becoming ghost-like existences.

Even the necromantic magic is currently clashing and fighting with the power of light within Yan Shaozhe's martial soul, as well as the origin of the God of Light, making its state somewhat unstable.

Seeing Yan Shaozhe's condition, everyone frowned, but in the end they could only accept it, at least he could survive.

"Young man, would you be willing to inherit my position and become the Sect Master of the Body Sect?"

Poison Undying suddenly asked.

The Body Sect has been wiped out, but it still needs to be passed down. As for transforming into that form, it means nothing to him.

Because his martial spirit is his body, once his body decays, his martial spirit will inevitably collapse as well. Even if he becomes a ghost, he will only be barely clinging to life. He would rather face death than become a weakling who is neither human nor ghost.

Although he harbored hatred towards Shrek Academy, he had no other choice now. Only that little guy possessed a true martial soul and had considerable potential.

This is the only option!

"Senior, please rest assured, I will definitely rebuild the Body Sect in the future."

Dai Yuhao solemnly promised that he felt guilty about the destruction of the Body Sect.

Ultimately, the root of this incident lies with him. If he hadn't proposed using the solar furnace for power to accelerate the research of the new soul guidance system, none of these changes would have occurred.

He bears the main responsibility for how things have turned out; he was too arrogant, thinking that learning the new Soul Guidance System would allow him to reach the pinnacle, but reality slapped him in the face.

He is still a weakling!

"Inside lies the legacy of our Body Sect. From this moment forward, you are the Sect Master of the Body Sect."

The boy's promise brought Du Busi some comfort. He took off his storage soul tool and tossed it to Dai Yuhao, then headed deeper into the island, intending to find a place to dig a hole and bury himself.

But halfway there, he suddenly seemed to remember something. Ignoring his body's collapse, he activated his internal poison technique, condensing it into a dark green crystal, which he then tossed to Dai Yuhao.

"You might need it in the future."

After saying that, he continued walking unsteadily into the depths of the island. He could finally rest for a while. He just didn't know if his soul would return to the legendary underworld after death. If he met his brother, how should he explain it?

Dai Yuhao held the crystal tightly, eventually storing it in his spiritual sea. It was then transformed by Xuanzi and Long Xiaoyao, turning them into ghostly bodies.

There was no way around it; that eerie power was too terrifying. It could even erode bones and make them fragile. Even with the addition of a soul bone, it was no use. It could only exist in the world in the form of a ghost.

Fortunately, he had exhausted his soul power in Mingdu by forcibly controlling the Solar Furnace, and was protected by Elder Long. In the end, he was even stored in a storage soul tool for protection. He was also protected by everyone before, so the strange power he suffered was the least.

With the added power of the Flame of Life, it can hold on for now. Hopefully, time will wear away this strange power.

Putting aside Dai Yuhao's actions, Tang San, whose divine sense was attached to his daughter Tang Wutong, was completely baffled as to how things had turned out this way.

Fortunately, he had just knocked his daughter unconscious, otherwise, seeing Dai Yuhao's miserable state, he would be extremely anxious, and it would be very troublesome if his identity were exposed.

"Poseidon, you're in a bit of a predicament!"

Just then, a beam of light, invisible to everyone, descended from the sky and entered the unconscious Tang Wutong's brow, transforming into human form within her spiritual sea.

"Brother Bing!"

Upon seeing the newcomer, Tang San breathed a sigh of relief; at least it wasn't an enemy.

"Your foundations here have been completely destroyed. What are your plans now?"

Rong Nianbing's divine sense clone inquired. After returning with the message last time, he had separated another divine sense to form this clone, precisely to protect the boy's safe growth so that he could eventually inherit his divine position.

I had been wandering around this plane for a while, but unexpected changes occurred here, so I only managed to get here now.

I just happened to read the memories of those people outside and roughly know what happened. Obviously, the Sea God's foundation in this plane has been greatly destroyed. I don't know if this was part of the Sea God's plan.

"How did you manage to create a clone and descend to this dimension?"

Tang San did not answer with his divine sense, but instead asked Rong Nianbing about her purpose.

Although everything was part of the main body's scheme, the act still had to be performed.

"Don't pretend, I guessed it. You want to secure a good divine position for your future son-in-law, and I happen to want to pass on that divine position. We can work together perfectly."

Rong Nianbing bluntly stated the situation: the current situation here is very serious, and the dimensional barrier seems to have changed, so he can no longer contact his main body.

Only by working together with the Sea God's divine sense can we ensure that the little guy grows safely to his limit.

"I knew I couldn't hide it from you, sorry!"

Tang San was taken aback for a moment, then gave a bitter smile, which carried a hint of apology, but he had a different thought in his heart.

According to the original body's plan, it could not only obtain Rong Nianbing's divine position inheritance, but also make Rong Nianbing owe a favor. However, it seems that something went wrong, and Rong Nianbing saw through the original body's plan.

Although he could still obtain the position of God of Emotions from Rong Nianbing for his son-in-law, he would not gain Rong Nianbing's favor and would definitely leave the God Realm immediately afterward.

Losing this major asset would create a huge loophole in the main body's plan.

"Perhaps we can imitate the original's operation from back then!"

Thinking back to his original body's experience of inheriting the Sea God's position, Tang San's divine sense had a bold idea.

The main body's plan must not go wrong, even if it means doing things against principles. However, it must be carefully planned to prevent that boy from developing a grudge and ruining the daughter's marriage.

"We're friends, apologizing would be too formal."

Rong Nianbing waved his hand dismissively, not taking the matter to heart.

Poseidon was a friend he acknowledged, and one of his few friends. A little scheming between friends was nothing, since he hadn't been harmed.

"Now let's talk about what to do. The barrier in this plane has changed, and my connection with my original body has been severed. We can only rely on ourselves."

With a solemn expression, Rong Nianbing thought to see what the Sea God could do.

He knew something about the Sea God's plan: to reshape the positions of the elemental gods in this plane, and then welcome the divine realm to come and quickly integrate with it. This was a major event concerning the stability of the divine realm, and could not be taken lightly.

"The original plan is definitely not going to work. We can't find suitable talents to train as the next generation of elemental gods in a short period of time, and the current number of people is not enough."

I plan to increase my efforts in nurturing that child with twin martial souls. Her Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron is very special and can be used as a vessel to create the Nine Elements Divine Cauldron.

The original body prepared some materials with me, originally intended to forge artifacts for the new generation of nine elemental gods, but now the plan has to be changed.

Tang San thought for a while and then voiced an idea.

Since the Nine Elemental Gods Project failed, let's cultivate the Nine Elemental God Cauldron. It just so happens that the martial soul of Xiao Xiao is a perfect match.

As long as the Nine Elemental Divine Cauldrons can be forged, the Nine Cauldrons Formation inherited from the Asura God can still create formidable combat power.

Moreover, they might even be able to raise an elemental god king. After he and Xiao Wu have another son, they can match him with that girl and she can become a daughter-in-law of the Tang family. That would be perfect.

"You mean that girl? Her cauldron can only be split into three, I think."

Rong Nianbing voiced his doubts. He possessed all of Huo Yuhao's memories, so he naturally knew about the girl named Xiao Xiao, as well as the existence of the Nine Elemental Cauldrons and the Nine Cauldrons Formation.

As far as he knew, the Nine Elemental Divine Cauldrons seemed to be nine independent divine artifacts, and that girl's martial spirit was probably not enough.

“The martial souls and soul rings in our world are very special, possessing many incredible abilities. Fortunately, one of the soul beasts that little girl brought back has the ability to split. We only need to guide and strengthen it as the seventh soul ring, and we can evolve that girl’s martial soul into the Nine Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron.”

Tang San's divine sense appeared very confident, as if he had everything under control.

"You can do that?!"

Rong Nianbing was greatly surprised; the cultivation system of this world was much more interesting than that of his original plane.

"Martial spirits have unlimited potential and can be used even after becoming a god."

With a sense of pride, Tang San clearly understood the infinite potential of a martial soul, a fact proven ten thousand years ago, which instilled fear in the gods of the divine realm.

However, what Tang San was unaware of was that all of this was a backup plan arranged by someone, including the ferocious beast with the splitting talent skill, which was also deliberately arranged. All of his choices were within someone's calculations.
