Thousand Mechanism Umbrella

Over the past two years, Feng Hao's strength had risen to level thirty.

He had cultivated diligently throughout those two years, as he had always wanted to reach level thirty as soon as possible and make a trip to Heaven Dou City.

Xiao Wu had also grown much taller over the past two years, reaching 1.4 meters. She was gradually beginning to show the makings of a great beauty.

She was still very dependent on Feng Hao. She was still accustomed to sleeping with him at night, practically using him as a body pillow.

Her Soul Power had also reached level twenty, though her rate of improvement was naturally incomparable to Feng Hao's.

After all, she did not have Feng Hao's cheat. The Sun Scripture Feng Hao used to cultivate Soul Power was useless to her, so he had not taught it to her.

He had hoped to obtain a cultivation method suitable for her as soon as possible, but no quests had been triggered over the past two years, leaving him helpless.

The holidays had recently begun. After breaking through level thirty, Feng Hao wanted to go find Qian Renxue.

They had been apart for two years. She should be even more beautiful now, right?

In Feng Hao's eyes, a woman was at her most beautiful between the ages of sixteen and eighteen.

Whether she could remain as beautiful afterward mainly depended on how well she took care of herself.

That morning, Feng Hao said to Xiao Wu, "Xiao Wu, I may be going away for a few days."

"Brother Feng Hao, where are you going? Can't you take me with you?" she asked, gazing at him.

"I can't take you to where I'm going this time. How about I take you along next time I go somewhere else?" Feng Hao said.

There were too many experts in Heaven Dou City. Feng Hao was worried Xiao Wu would be exposed; otherwise, he could have taken her with him.

"Oh! Then come back quickly, Brother Feng Hao," she pleaded, blinking her big eyes.

"Mm! I will." Feng Hao nodded, then took a small umbrella from his Summoning Ring.

He handed the umbrella to Xiao Wu and said, "Xiao Wu, keep this umbrella for self-defense."

"Self-defense?" Xiao Wu looked at the umbrella and discovered that it was entirely made of metal.

Yet it was not heavy. The umbrella was extremely light and thin, making it difficult to imagine what kind of technique had refined it to such an extent.

The umbrella was pale yellow, decorated with beautiful patterns and jeweled ornaments. Just looking at it was enough to make any girl's heart flutter.

But beautiful as it was, she found it hard to connect this umbrella with self-defense.

"This umbrella is called the Thousand Mechanism Umbrella. I forged it not long ago. It's a very powerful hidden weapon. Even someone with no Soul Power can kill a Soul Ancestor in a single strike with it. Since you have Soul Power, even if you encounter some lower-level Soul Kings, you'll have a chance to seriously injure them," Feng Hao explained.

"It's that powerful? How do I use it?" Xiao Wu asked curiously.

"There are two buttons on the handle. One opens the umbrella for normal use. The other activates the hidden weapons. Once the umbrella is open, press the hidden weapon button, and the hidden weapons will attack everything in a circle around you," Feng Hao explained.

In truth, the Thousand Mechanism Umbrella's upper limit was far beyond that. It was only because he could not currently find metal capable of bringing out its greatest power.

The Thousand Mechanism Umbrella's true strength lay in its ability to be used in conjunction with a person's Soul Power. It could greatly raise one's upper limit. As long as one had enough Soul Power, this hidden weapon could even kill a Titled Douluo.

Of course, that was assuming the Thousand Mechanism Umbrella was forged from high-quality metal.

"I'll go try it," Xiao Wu said excitedly. To her, it was simply a brand-new toy.

She jogged forward, first pressing the button to open the Thousand Mechanism Umbrella.

She examined it and found its interior exquisitely crafted.

It was hard to imagine that something so beautiful possessed the power Feng Hao had described.

She gently pressed the hidden weapon button.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

In an instant, countless flying needles shot out, swiftly embedding themselves in a circle around her.

The path around her was paved with stone slabs, and the flying needles left tiny holes in every one of them.

That was without her using any Soul Power. She could hardly imagine what would happen if those needles struck a person.

She closed the Thousand Mechanism Umbrella, ran back to Feng Hao, and said, "Brother Feng Hao, those flying needles are stuck in the stone slabs. How do I take them out?"

"You don't need to. There are more inside the Thousand Mechanism Umbrella. There's enough for you to use it like that eighteen times. Including this use, there are seventeen left. Once you run out, I'll replenish them for you," Feng Hao said.

"Seventeen times will probably be hard to use up. I really like this Thousand Mechanism Umbrella, and I like its name too. Thank you, Brother Feng Hao." After saying that, Xiao Wu leaned in and kissed Feng Hao on the cheek.

Over the past two years, she had kissed Feng Hao like this many times. She was used to it, and so was Feng Hao.

Feng Hao turned and lovingly kissed her on the forehead before saying, "I'll be back soon."

"Mm!" Xiao Wu nodded obediently.

Then Feng Hao activated the second soul skill of the Taiji Diagram.

A Golden Bridge streaked across the sky, and countless immense forces descended from above it.

Beyond the Golden Bridge lay a hazy expanse.

Feng Hao needed to choose the destination himself. At that moment, his soul rapidly expanded, allowing him to overlook the surrounding cities.

It continued spreading outward until, at its very limit, he saw Heaven Dou City.

After choosing Heaven Dou City, he turned back and waved to Xiao Wu.

"Xiao Wu, I'm leaving first." With that, he stepped onto the Golden Bridge and walked toward its other end.

The moment he crossed over, the Golden Bridge vanished, and so did he.

Xiao Wu stared at the empty space ahead and murmured, "Is Brother Feng Hao an immortal?"

That method was far too miraculous. She had never even heard of anything like it.

He had vanished in an instant, leaving behind not the slightest trace of his aura.

"Brother Feng Hao must be an immortal sent by Heaven to save me. That must be it," she said firmly.

Feng Hao only felt as though he had passed through a thick fog before arriving outside Heaven Dou City.

If not for the fact that nearly one-third of his Soul Power had been depleted, he would have suspected he was dreaming.

Although he had always known the effects of his soul skill,

using it for the first time still left him deeply shocked.

Though it had cost him one-third of his Soul Power, this soul skill was absolutely a Supergod-level existence.

Moreover, beneath the blazing sun, the Sun Scripture allowed him to recover his Soul Power extremely quickly.

He strode openly into Heaven Dou City, leisurely restoring his Soul Power as he walked.

After wandering through the city for about half an hour, he suddenly heard a voice from beside him.

"Young Master Feng Hao, is that you?"

Hearing the voice, he immediately turned around.

Sure enough, it was Snake Lance Douluo.

"Senior, it's me! I didn't expect you to find me so quickly," Feng Hao said in surprise.

Although it was easy for a Titled Douluo to find someone by sensing their aura,

Snake Lance Douluo would have needed to keep watch continuously.

For Snake Lance Douluo to arrive so quickly meant he had been constantly paying attention to whether Feng Hao's aura appeared in Heaven Dou City.

"Because the young lady has always instructed me to keep watch, I did not dare neglect my duty. The young lady has spent the past two years constantly talking about you, Young Master. Please come with me quickly!" Snake Lance Douluo said.

Please support me in every way! I'll continue with five updates today!
