Douluo Continent: Sword Named Star, Slaying Gods to Prove the Dao

The enormous Nine Treasures Profound Yellow Pagoda fell from the sky, and Bai Yu instantly felt immense pressure. He then immediately released his eighth soul skill, sending the over twenty-meter-long Ice Soul Serpent King rushing towards the Nine Treasures Profound Yellow Pagoda.

Ning Xingchen activated his soul power, and the Nine Treasures Profound Yellow Pagoda suppressed everything. With a loud bang, the Ice Soul Serpent King fell from the sky to the ground, and then its Martial Soul True Body disappeared.

Ning Xingchen withdrew his martial soul, and Bai Yu also withdrew his martial soul, slowly standing up from the ground. He said, "Brother Ning is indeed worthy of being a Title Douluo. He can completely defeat me without even using his martial soul true form."

He once had a record of fighting against titled Douluo without being defeated, but now he suffered a crushing defeat. His opponent did not use his full strength at all, and probably did not even use half of his power.

After all, his opponent didn't use his Martial Soul True Body or a ten-thousand-year Soul Skill. Little did he know that the Soul Ring absorbed by Ning Xingchen's sixth Soul Skill was equivalent to the ninth Soul Skill of many Title Douluos.

Bai Yu wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and Ning Xingchen asked, "Are you alright?"

"It's alright, it's alright, I'm fine," Bai Yu said.

“Brother Ning, you’ve just returned to the mainland, why don’t you stay here for the time being?”

Ning Xingchen said, "Then I'll have to trouble you."

"No trouble at all, no trouble at all!" Bai Yu quickly replied.

“I have a newly built courtyard in the Duke’s mansion. Ning, you can stay there. I’m sure you’ll be satisfied,” said Duke Baiyu.

The entire Bai family resides in the Duke Baiyu's mansion, which is more like a royal palace than a mansion, and also somewhat similar to the layout of Ning Xingchen's sect.

“Late Autumn, you’re familiar with Brother Ning, so you can make the arrangements. Everything must be the best in my country,” Bai Yu said.

Seeing the injured Bai Yu, Ning Xingchen didn't say anything more, nor did he give her any healing pills.

Following Qin Wanqiu to his lodgings, Bai Yu left the training ground immediately after Ning Xingchen left, and summoned the strongest healing soul masters from the Duke's mansion.

On the training field, he was just putting on a brave face.

After some treatment, Bai Yu's health improved.

"Father, are you alright?" Bai Feng asked.

"Senior Ning went too far. How could you hurt Father like this?" Bai Xixi said.

"You can't say that. Brother Ning didn't use his Martial Soul True Body or his 100,000-year Soul Skill. He only used his sixth Soul Skill. Besides, I used my Martial Soul True Body and my eighth Soul Skill."

"Sigh, the gap is too big. I reckon that on the mainland, the only ones who can rival Brother Ning are those two level 96 and 97 Title Douluos from the Tianxing Empire and Hanyue Empire."

"Father, are you saying that Senior Ning has already reached level ninety-six?" Bai Feng asked.

Bai Yu said, "Even if he doesn't have that level of combat power, he probably does. You all need to keep your younger siblings in check, especially Su Su. Make sure you don't provoke him. If possible, it would be best to let him stay in our Bai Yu Duchy."

"Father, we understand. I'll talk to Susu about it," Bai Xixi said. As the older sister, she naturally had to keep her younger siblings in check.

"Feng'er, Xixi, you two go out first and let your ninth brother, Bai Qi, come to see me."

"Yes, Father."

The two left the room, and Bai Feng said, "Xi Xi, what do you think Father wanted to do with Ninth Brother? Does he intend for Ninth Brother to become an apprentice?"

"Become an apprentice?"

Bai Xixi thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps Father has this plan. After all, with Ninth Brother's talent, he is the third person in nearly a hundred years to possess innate full soul power. The first two have already become Title Douluo. Ninth Brother has the potential to be a Title Douluo, so it would be best for him to become a Title Douluo's apprentice."

“Yes, Ninth Brother is only twelve years old and he’s already a Soul Master. Sigh, I was only twelve when I just reached the Great Soul Master level.” Bai Feng said helplessly, comparing himself to others is just infuriating.

……

In the blink of an eye, Ning Xingchen had been staying in the Duchy of Baiyu for half a month. The Duke of Baiyu showed his sincerity by hosting small banquets every three days and large banquets every five days, taking meticulous care of her.

The luxurious villa was filled with all sorts of beautiful women.

Ning Xingchen had also visited Baiyujing many times in the past two weeks. Through what he saw and heard, as well as the various books provided by Baiyu, Ning Xingchen finally gained a better understanding of this continent.

The soul tools, in particular, were dazzling to Ning Xingchen. In Baiyujing, you rarely see attack-type soul tools, but life-assistance type soul tools are everywhere.

Even extremely precious spatial soul tools are very cheap on the Star Moon Continent.

Ning Xingchen initially wanted to buy it directly, but the gold soul coins of this continent are different from those of the Douluo Continent. Not only are the designs different, but even the weight is different.

The Star Moon Continent truly lives up to its reputation as a continent extremely rich in minerals; the weight of its gold soul coins is more than double that of the gold soul coins in the Douluo Continent.

Fortunately, Bai Yu gave him a Gold Soul Coin Card halfway through, and Ning Xingchen didn't hold back, buying a lot of spatial soul tools with large storage spaces, as well as some suitable soul tools.

On the morning of the sixteenth day after arriving on the Star Moon Continent, Ning Xingchen had just gotten up when he saw Bai Yu already waiting in the courtyard. This time, unlike before, he seemed to have dismissed all the maids.

The only people in the courtyard were him, Ning Xingchen, and a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy he had brought with him.

"Brother Ning."

"Xiao Jiu, quickly call him Uncle Ning."

"Uncle Ning!"

Bai Yu pushed the child beside her forward. Ning Xingchen glanced at the child and asked, "Who is this?"

"This is my ninth child, Bai Qi."

"he……"

Ning Xingchen frowned slightly. He had just used his mental power to probe the child's soul power and found that the child's soul power was not bad, but there were two kinds of soul power in his body, and they were somewhat chaotic and conflicting, which seemed to be a sign of the child's impending death by exploding.

"Brother Ning, you have twin martial souls, right? Wanqiu and the others saw you flying on a sword, but you used a tower-type martial soul when you fought me. Please save Xiao Jiu, he... he also has twin martial souls."

Ning Xingchen asked, "You added spirit rings to both of his martial souls?"

“Well, now Xiao Jiu has obtained three spirit rings for both of his martial souls, but I didn’t expect that the two powers within him are out of control. You are also a twin martial soul owner, Brother Ning, please save Xiao Jiu,” Bai Yu said.

This was his most valued child, born with full soul power and twin martial souls that had never been recorded in history.

The first two spirit rings were fine, but the problem became bigger after both martial souls absorbed the third spirit ring, making it impossible for Bai Qi to cultivate. He needs to spend a lot of time and energy every day to regulate the two spirit powers in his body.

However, Ning Xingchen in front of him is a user of twin martial souls. The fact that he can be given a title means that he has already solved the problem of cultivating twin martial souls.

Chapter 113 Twelve-Winged Angels and Twelve-Winged Fallen Angels

"Brother Ning, could it be because Bai Qi cultivated two martial souls at the same time?" Bai Yu guessed.

Ning Xingchen said, "That's right. His body is too weak and cannot withstand the conflict between the two forces. He is in danger of exploding and dying at any time."

"So that's the reason. I had guessed it before but didn't stop it. Sigh..."

Bai Yu glanced at Bai Qi and said, "Xiao Jiu, it's all my fault for not stopping you in time, which has put you in a dangerous situation now."

"Father, it's not your fault. It's just that no one on this continent has ever seen twin martial souls, and there's no historical record of them. Besides, it was my request in the first place," Bai Qi said in a low voice. It was all his own choice, and he didn't blame anyone else.

“Xiao Jiu, your Uncle Ning also has twin martial souls and has cultivated his soul power to the title level. He must have a way.” Bai Yu looked at Ning Xingchen again, hoping to get Ning Xingchen’s help.

Ning Xingchen also showed a helpless expression and said, "The most taboo thing in cultivating twin martial souls is to add soul rings to both martial souls in the early stage. Now the two energies in his body have started to conflict, and I can't do anything about it now."

"Is there really no other way?" Bai Yu looked at Ning Xingchen again.

Ning Xingchen said, "Yes, there is, but I can't do it right now."

"Brother Ning, please tell me, no matter what, I must save Xiao Jiu," Bai Yu said with a determined expression.

"Two methods!"

"The first thing is to bring the two forces in his body into perfect balance. Once they are in perfect balance, he can save his life and even go further."

The two martial souls of Bai Qi in front of us are ice and fire attributes, respectively. He is suitable for cultivating in the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, and he is also suitable for body tempering with ice and fire.

However, the materials for the Ice and Fire Body Refinement are currently unavailable. Even in Medicine God Valley, there are no immortal-grade medicinal herbs with these two extreme attributes.

Therefore, you can try to achieve a perfect balance between the ice and fire attributes in your body.

"Balance? I understand. Brother Ning, is there another method?" Bai Yu continued to ask.

"Another method is to remove one of his spirit rings, but it is very difficult to remove it intact. If not done properly, it may destroy the spirit or even cause permanent damage."

In the novel, Tang San managed to remove his spirit rings, but at that time he was already a Title Douluo and had the protection of the Sea God's Light to complete the task, and even then he suffered great pain.

There is another way, which is to improve physical strength, but Bai Qi's current physical condition is not suitable for exercise or taking rare and precious medicines. Doing so will not only not help him, but will also harm him.

Therefore, Ning Xingchen could only think of these two methods.

Bai Yu said, "I see. But can a soul ring be detached after it's absorbed?"

Ning Xingchen said, "It should be possible to separate it."

“I understand, Brother Ning, can you remove the soul ring?” Bai Yu asked.

"Not yet, I don't have that ability yet. For now, the only thing we can do is stop him from cultivating and try to balance these two conflicting energies."

"Thank you, Brother Ning. You just said you're not ready yet, so will you be ready later?" Bai Yu asked again, recalling what Ning Xingchen had just said.

"Give me about two years and I should be able to remove the spirit ring from him without causing much harm to his body!" Ning Xingchen said in a low voice.

"really?"

Ning Xingchen nodded and said, "It should be around this time, at the earliest two years, and at the latest three or four years."

"Brother Ning, please do me this favor. If you need anything, I, Bai Yu, will go through fire and water for you."

Ning Xingchen thought for a moment and said, "There is indeed something I need your help with."

After saying that, Ning Xingchen glanced at Bai Qi, and then Bai Yu called out to the outside of the courtyard, instructing a middle-aged man to take Bai Qi away from Ning Xingchen's courtyard.

"Brother Ning, just tell me what it is. I will never delay if it is within my power," Bai Yu said.

Ning Xingchen said, "I need a large number of soul tools, mainly offensive and defensive types, as well as methods for manufacturing and controlling soul tools, and a large amount of materials for manufacturing soul tools."

"Related to soul tools?" Bai Yu had heard Qin Wanqiu report to him that Ning Xingchen had asked her many questions about soul tools and had also asked for quite a few books on them.

So that's why he came to the mainland.

Bai Yu said, "Brother Ning, to be honest, my Bai Yu Duchy has quite a few soul tools for ordinary attacks and defenses, but we don't have any top-tier soul tools. They are all controlled by the two great empires."

“I can get a few top-tier soul tools, but it’s much harder to get a large number of them. The materials are relatively easy to obtain, but the manufacturing method…” Bai Yu paused after speaking, as if he wanted to say something but couldn’t.

After thinking for a while, Bai Yu continued, "Brother Ning, I don't know exactly how much of these things you need, or when you need them?"

Clearly, he was going all out to get Ning Xingchen to treat his son.

Ning Xingchen said, "As for finished products, I don't need too many. Enough to form a soul guide legion of two thousand people is enough. As for materials, the more the better."

For the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, a two-thousand-strong Soul Guidance Artifact Legion is enough to equip such a team, since not everyone can become a Soul Guidance Artifact Master.

Moreover, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School doesn't have that many Soul Masters right now, and more importantly, the school needs to master the production of Soul Tools.

Bai Yu gritted her teeth and said, "Brother Ning, I promise you. As long as you can treat my son, it will be worth it no matter how much you have to do."

If Xiao Jiu is properly trained, his future strength will definitely be no weaker than those two old guys from the two great empires, and may even surpass them by a large margin. In the future, there might even be a third empire on the continent.
