Standing at the entrance of the hall Bone Douluo Gu Rong, looked at the less than one hundred Spirit Master brought by Dugu Bo sitting in the pavilion not far away and couldn't help but make a joke.

Inside the hall, Dugu Bo, who was sitting in a chair chatting with Dugu Yan using the Soul Net System, rolled his eyes upon hearing this and said without any politeness:

"What can we do? Our Dugu Family is just a Spirit Master family, and a Spirit Master family that is famous for its poison. In addition, my past behavior has made our reputation in the Soul Master World not very good to begin with."

"Even if his reputation has improved a little because of Wu Tong, it won't be by much."

"Unlike your Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, which is so powerful and wealthy that you can summon so many Spirit Masters with a mere flick of your wrist, if I could really do that, I wouldn't have come looking for you..."

To be honest, Dugu Bo felt a little ashamed of the number of Spirit Master he had brought, which was less than a hundred.

In the entire Douluo Continent, which family has such a meager Titled Douluo that, after issuing a recruitment notice, can only recruit so few people in six days?

However, there was really no other way. Because of Wu Tong's Multiverse Expedition Plan, after the Little God Realm Meeting, almost all the major forces in the Douluo Continent were frantically recruiting people.

Compared to his less-than-stellar reputation and unappealing Titled Douluo Martial Soul attributes, the more renowned and powerful forces naturally attracted them more.

Therefore, despite Dugu Bo's painstaking and diligent efforts in recruiting people, he only managed to snatch fewer than one hundred people from other forces in seven days.

Moreover, these Spirit Masters are generally low-level Spirit Master, around level 40 or 50.

Compared to other forces, this number is nothing.

This stark contrast between Heaven and hell instantly broke Dugu Bo's heart.

Therefore, after realizing that he couldn't recruit many people at all, Dugu Bo simply took the people he had recruited and came to join the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School.

They plan to cooperate with the powerful Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School to jointly plot against the small world that is about to be conquered.

Since they're all under Wu Tong's command, there's nothing shameful about helping each other!

(Gu Rong / Chen Xin / Ning Fengzhi:...)

Is this supposed to be mutual help? It feels more like they're asking for help in person.

Forget it, it's already embarrassing enough that the old man came to them for help.

Let's give this old guy some face!

"Hehe... Senior Poison Douluo, you flatter me."

Ning Fengzhi chuckled lightly upon hearing this, as if he hadn't heard it at all, and casually brushed the topic aside.

"Snort..."

Dugu Bo snorted, not paying any attention. Then, glancing at the three people in front of him, his expression shifted slightly, and he said hesitantly:

"Are the three of you really sure you want to go together? Isn't this making a mountain out of a molehill?"

"And what will happen to the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School if you all leave? Aren't you afraid someone will attack?"

Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi laughed and said, "Senior Poison Douluo, you must know that it is a completely different world from the Douluo Continent. How could we resist the temptation of a New World? Of course we must go there in person."

"As for the problem of who will be left to guard the sect after we leave, that's even simpler."

"Ever since Mister Wu Tong set a brilliant example and dealt with all the troublemakers in the entire Douluo World, the entire Douluo World is now peaceful and friendly. Who would dare to defy the world and attack the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School?"

"Furthermore, our Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School is now deeply bound to Mister Wu Tong. Rongrong is Wu Tong's woman."

"Under these circumstances, even if all three of us were to perish, let alone leave, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School would remain safe and sound under Mister Wu Tong's protection."

"That's true..."

Upon hearing Ning Fengzhi's reply, Dugu Bo remembered that Ning Rongrong had become Wu Tong's woman. He nodded and said nothing more.

However, in the chat interface with Dugu Yan, there were many more words that implied urging marriage.

Seeing that Dugu Bo had broken down in his defenses and fallen silent, the others exchanged smiles, opened the Soul Net System, and began browsing through the system once again.

It must be said that the Soul Net System created by Wu Tong truly shocked them.

Putting aside other features, the Dimensional Chat Group function alone is already incredibly powerful.

It connects many corners of the world, enabling countless beings to exchange what they have and what they don't.

Such mysterious and unpredictable power is almost like the Authority of a god—mysterious, wondrous, and boundless...

So, as soon as they got their hands on this wonderful thing they had never seen before, everyone was attracted by its Infinite splendor and became unconsciously captivated by it.

Half an hour later.

"Beep beep beep..."

"Beep beep beep..."

"Beep beep beep..."

Several urgent message notifications suddenly rang out in their Soul Net System.

What followed was a new interface that suddenly popped up.

As soon as the new interface appeared, it completely covered the page that everyone was browsing, forcing everyone to turn their attention to the new interface.

The new page is entirely black, with only lines of text highlighted in red:

The Multiverse Expedition Plan has begun!

The world of this mission: Demon Slayer.

Main mission: Capture the "Demon King" and the "Twelve Kizuki," obtain the "Blue Spider Lily," recruit members of the Demon Slayer Corps... Disrupt the world's natural order, break its predetermined fate, and plunge it into chaos, thereby aiding in the takeover of the world.

Mission start countdown: 10 minutes!

"Note: The world storyline has been released. Please open your System Inventory and retrieve the relevant story memory."

"Attention: Once the countdown is complete, a portal to the world of Demon Slayer will appear in front of you. Please lead your entire group through it within half an hour. Latecomers will not be accepted!"

The text remained on the black screen for a few minutes before disappearing, replaced by a series of blood-red countdowns that kept rewinding.

Although there were only a few lines on the screen, it drove everyone from all factions into a frenzy.

Besides the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, other forces such as the Spirit Hall, Sea God Island, Star Dou Great Forest, Sun Moon Empire, Star Luo Empire... all started to take action together.

"So that's how it is... Demon King has lived for a thousand years... A man-eating demon... The Demon Slayer Corps that slays demons... Various Breathing Techniques... The Blue Spider Lily..."

"As expected of another world, everything in it is so different from our world!"

Following the on-screen instructions, Dugu Bo located the memory storage package in the system space and absorbed it. After recalling the various pieces of information in his mind, he quickly understood what kind of world he was going to.

After reading it, Dugu Bo breathed a sigh of relief, "Based on the combat performance in my memory, it can be seen that the combat power of this world is not very strong."

"It seems this mission is just a freebie!"

"For our first campaign, they've arranged a world with absolutely no challenge... It seems Wu Tong is planning to let us familiarize ourselves with the process beforehand!"

Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly, "Yes, judging from the current situation, the strongest Demon King in that world is probably only at the Spirit Emperor level. It is his powerful recovery ability that makes him somewhat troublesome."

"But it's not a big deal. In the face of absolute power, even the strongest regenerative ability is just a target that can't be destroyed."

"And don't let the low difficulty fool you, there are plenty of good stuff inside!"

"Things like Breathing Techniques, Markings, Transparent World, Battle Qi... these things are not very useful to us, but they are quite useful for training sect disciples."

Upon hearing Ning Fengzhi's words, the others nodded noncommittally.

Although the things Ning Fengzhi mentioned are all available for purchase in the Soul Net System Mall.

However, how can we waste such important wealth as Soul Net Points, which can be exchanged for Resurrection Coin, Divine Grid, supreme cultivation techniques and all sorts of treasures, on things that help disciples build a foundation?

So even though they knew that these things were available in the Mall and that they could actually improve the sect's strength, they never bought them.

But now things are much better. This World Conquest Plan allows them to collect these techniques that can improve the strength of lower-level disciples without spending any Points. It's a huge win!

After a brief chat, everyone quickly refocused their attention on conquering the world. After all, collecting resources was just a side job; to get the real big wins, they had to look at their World Conquest Progress.

After all, the more progress they make in conquering the world, the more rewards they can get from Wu Tong, and they might even be able to ascend to godhood in one step.

Therefore, people would naturally not do something as foolish as losing the big picture for the sake of small gains.

"According to the story described in the memories Wu Tong gave us, the largest proportion should be the Demon King Kibutsuji Muzan, the Twelve Kizuki, and the members of the Demon Slayer Corps."

"Among them, Kibutsuji Muzan has the largest proportion, while the Twelve Kizuki and the Demon Slayer Corps should be about the same."

Ning Fengzhi stroked the handle of his cane and made a rational analysis:

"In other words, if we want to improve our World Conquest Progress, we need to start from these aspects."

"If possible, I think we should go directly to Kibutsuji Muzan. If we can take him down, even if we don't get the highest score in the world conquest, we'll still have a pretty good one."

"Agreed, but that's true, but that Demon King is not easy to deal with!"

Upon hearing Ning Fengzhi's analysis, Dugu Bo immediately nodded.

However, when Kibutsuji Muzan was mentioned, Dugu Bo's expression became strange.

To be honest, he has traveled all over the world in his life. When he was young, he almost traveled all over the Douluo Continent to cure the poison in his body. He can be considered to have seen a lot. What hasn't he seen?

But he had never seen a strong person as cowardly as Kibutsuji Muzan.

It's understandable that he was so terrified of Tsugikuni Yoriichi that he lived like Nezumi in the street, hiding for hundreds of years. After all, there's nothing wrong with trying to survive.

However, his raw strength is comparable to that of Spirit Emperor at level 60, and he also has a large group of extremely powerful underlings.

The result was that they were controlled for hundreds of years by a group of ordinary people whose strength was only level 30 or 40 and who had no fighting power after losing their swords... This is a bit hard to understand!

Hmm... To be honest, before seeing the facts, he really couldn't believe that there were such cowardly and stupid people in this world.

But looking at it now, hey, it actually exists!

Chen Xin nodded in agreement:

"Yeah, Fengzhi, that Kibutsuji Muzan is like a Nezumi. He hides in the Infinity Castle as soon as there's a whisper of trouble. Even if we wanted to use him as a breakthrough, we wouldn't be able to find him!"

After saying that, and seemingly with a hint of seduction, he offered a solution that wasn't really a solution:

"We can't expect that coward to use his spatial abilities to search the entire world bit by bit, can we?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Xin immediately felt a sharp gaze sweeping towards him.

However, Chen Xin didn't care at all, and even gave Gu Rong a meaningful smile:

Hey, I did it on purpose, come and hit me!

Watching the daily farce of the Sword Bone Douluo unfold almost every day, Ning Fengzhi smile and said:

"Of course not. If we really let Uncle Bone search bit by bit, it would probably take several years. Our time is precious and we can't waste it on this."

"Then what should we do?"

Dugu Bo looked at Ning Fengzhi with some puzzlement, a troubled expression appearing on his face:

"If we can't even find him, how are we supposed to catch him?"

It's important to know that Kibutsuji Muzan only good at hiding, but also extremely cautious.

As the progenitor of demons, Kibutsuji Muzan can share the vision of all demons and see what they can see.

Therefore, if they enter that world and kill any demon, they will be seen by Kibutsuji Muzan.

Knowing he is no match for Kibutsuji Muzan, he will undoubtedly activate his signature move, "Survival Skill."

Then he hid in the Infinity Castle and refused to come out no matter what.

If things really turn out like that, with their current strength, they simply won't be able to do anything about that Demon King!

"Don't worry, I've already thought of a solution!"

Upon hearing this question, Ning Fengzhi immediately revealed a mysterious smile, intending to keep it a secret.

However, upon seeing the unfriendly looks in their eyes, he quickly explained:

"Does everyone remember what the Demon King wanted most?"

"Blue Spider Lily!" ×4.

Anyone who has seen that memory should know this.

"That's right, it's the Blue Spider Lily."

Ning Fengzhi nodded.
