The Innately Evil Spirit Hall
"The people of the Spirit Hall are really good to this Elder Yu Xiaogang. They actually destroyed a top-notch Soul Master on the continent for his sake."
"Yes, yes, I heard that it was those people from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan who humiliated their Elder, which is why they took action. Elder Yu Xiaogang is really lucky."
"I heard that Elder Yu Xiaogang was originally from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan."
"Is that so? He's really heartless and ruthless. He destroyed the sect that gave him life and raised him without a second thought."
The grudges and feuds between the Spirit Hall and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan eventually reached Notting City. Yu Xiaogang fainted from anger upon hearing the discussions among the city's residents and academy teachers.
When he woke up again, he looked at his dutiful disciple Tang San serving him by the bedside, raised his hand tremblingly, and stared fiercely in the direction of the Spirit Hall.
"Tang San, remember this: the Spirit Hall is an absolutely evil entity, and you must destroy them in the future."
"Yes."
After bidding farewell to Yu Xiaogang, Tang San went to the Spirit Hall to collect his Soul Master subsidy. After receiving the Gold Soul Coin, he went to the pharmacy to get medicine for Yu Xiaogang.
He used to think the Spirit Hall was pretty good, but now it seems it's just a way to recruit genius Soul Master. Let's see how Tang uses the enemy's money to grow stronger and then Destruction them.
At the same time, the Star Crown Sect Master, far away in the southwest of the continent, also received the news. He stared at the intelligence in his hand and pondered for a long time.
Compared to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, the Star Crown Sect only has three or four more titled warriors, and its core strength is not even as strong as that of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. If the Spirit Hall really attacks, can they withstand it?
The sect leader ordered a disciple to leave the main hall and summon the Third Elder, who was cultivating in the Back Mountain. The Sect Master then handed him two letters that he had just written.
"Third Elder, I'd like to trouble you to make this trip. This letter is to be delivered to Ning Fengzhi of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School, and this one is to be delivered to the Dugu Manor."
"Our Star Crown Sect would like to invite Poison Douluo to stay for a period of time as a guest elder. His granddaughter will receive the full support and guidance of our Star Crown Sect."
The conditions offered by the Sect Master were just the basics. He believed that Dugu Bo had also seen the current chaos on the continent, and that with his strength as a newly promoted Titled Douluo, he was not capable of remaining unaffected.
The Third Elder's appearance was precisely to demonstrate some of the Star Crown Sect's strength to both families, so they would know what the best course of action was.
This massacre ended with the Two Great Empires issuing statements of condemnation. The only impact on the Spirit Hall was that some Soul Master who disapproved of this behavior chose to withdraw, which was almost negligible.
On the other side, Xu Mingxi broke through to level 90 in the Moon Viewing Volcano Group with the help of the left leg bone of the 100,000-year-old Sun Flame Crow. He only needs one more Soul Ring to enter the ranks of the continent's strongmen.
However, he hesitated a bit when it came to choosing his Ninth Soul Ring. The Soul Master he had previously chosen, who was related to the sun, seemed a little unsuitable.
After absorbing the Soul Bone of Sun Flame Crow, Xu Mingxi felt that the power of the stars, the power of the Silver Moon, and the power of the sun in the Star Crown Martial Soul were somewhat unbalanced.
The eighth Soul Ring's 100,000-year-old Fire Thief Lizard steals the power of the sun. Combined with the Seventh Soul Ring's Sun Flame Crow and the 100,000-year-old Sun Flame Crow Soul Bone, the power of the sun increases dramatically.
With the two unknown fragments integrated, the power of the stars was no less than the power of the sun, but the power of the Silver Moon was somewhat weak, and Xu Mingxi subconsciously felt that something was wrong.
His original idea was to achieve a balance among the three elements of the Star Crown Martial Soul, and to become a god through the three lights of the Sun Moon Star.
But when he went through the trials of Sun Moon Valley, he wondered why there was Starlight in the trials of the Sun God and the Yue Shen, and why it was even faintly above the sunlight and moonlight.
Adding to the Yue Shen's final words, Xu Mingxi conceived the idea of using the power of the stars to control the power of the sun and the Silver Moon, since the sun and the Silver Moon are also part of the stars, aren't they?
However, the most important thing now is to upgrade the Silver Moon Power in the Starlight Martial Soul, and the Ninth Soul Ring is the best opportunity.
"Eighth Elder, let's go to Mingdu to find the First Elder and the others. I want to adjust the target of my Ninth Soul Ring."
The two headed towards Mingdu, but when they stopped to rest in a small town on the outskirts of the Moonview Mountain Range, they were surrounded by all the Soul Hunting Group in the town.
Xu Mingxi was confused and had the Eighth Elder trap them all. He then walked up to the leading Soul Master, condensed Starlight into a sword, and placed it against the man's neck.
"Tell me, why are you surrounding us?"
"My lord, I was blind to your greatness. It's all Xu Zixlong's fault. He ordered your arrest. I was just following orders."
Wanted? Xu Mingxi glanced back at the Eighth Elder and saw that he was also confused. He then searched the leading Soul Master and found a stack of Wanted Poster.
Who else could be the four at the front if not him and the Three Elders? Xu Mingxi suddenly felt a little worried about his grandfather and the Third Elder. It had taken him eighteen days to break through, and they had been hunted down for eighteen days as well.
Moreover, Xu Zixlong actually issued a bounty for a ten- Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone, which is an extraordinary temptation for the Soul Master community.
Do you know where those two are?
"These two gentlemen have been pursued to the vicinity of Rising Sun City."
Xu Mingxi placed the Wanted Poster of the two First Elders in front of the leading Soul Master. Feeling the sharpness of the sword against his neck, he told him everything he knew in hopes of a chance to survive.
"Eighth Elder, let's go."
As the Soul Master in the town rejoiced at their survival, a golden-red beam of light descended from the sky, instantly destroying the entire town.
At this moment, large protective Soul Tool have been activated in Rising Sun City, and Soul Saint experts are patrolling the surrounding city walls.
Their purpose was not to defend against foreign enemies, but to trap two powerful wanted criminals in Rising Sun City and await the arrival of Emperor Xu Zixlong of the Sun Moon Empire.
Before Xu Zixlong arrived, they didn't even dare to search for him. He was Titled Douluo, after all. What if they actually found him? Wouldn't that be suicide?
The First Elder looked at the soldiers patrolling the street through the window of a dark pavilion, his face grim. He walked to the center of the pavilion, where the Ninth Elder sat cross-legged, his face even a little pale.
"Ninth Brother, how is your injury healing?"
"I'm almost better, but I'm still a little weak. It will take some time for me to fully recover."
"They've kept that large, shield-like Soul Tool in the sky active. I haven't tried it before, but it shouldn't be something I can break in a short time. We're in trouble now."
"Yes, I hope Mingxi and the other one don't come."
Neither of them looked very good. Even though Xu Mingxi had reminded them of the power of Soul Tool before, they, as traditional Soul Master, had taken it somewhat lightly. They never expected to suffer such a big setback because of it.
