Na Nali and Dark Blood Demon

"The best at controlling humans is the rising star among the Four Kings, Dark Bell Na Nali, the most talented of the Holy Spirit Cult's younger generation. Not yet thirty, she is already a Super Douluo and a Three-Word Battle Armor Master."

"Her martial soul, the Fear Bell, combines seduction, control, and spiritual interference. She has also devoted herself to the art of control, so she should meet your requirements."

"As for raising cultivation, whether through the Holy Spirit Cult Secret Techniques that use various bloody or bloodless accumulations as nourishment, or through the forced growth of converting a soul master's potential directly into cultivation, the one most proficient in this field is Dark Blood Demon, first among the Four Kings."

"His martial soul is very special. Like Holy Spirit Douluo Ya Li, who possesses the Praying Angel martial soul, he cannot increase his Soul Power through pure cultivation."

"The difference is that Ya Li raises her Soul Power by absorbing the Power of Faith, while Dark Blood Demon raises his Soul Power by absorbing fresh souls. Even his soul rings are condensed from the fresh souls he absorbs."

"For this reason, he has studied countless Holy Spirit Cult secret techniques for increasing Soul Power and cultivation, attaining profound mastery over them."

"Furthermore, he is a demigod-level Limit Douluo and Three-Word Battle Armor Master. He should be able to satisfy your requirements as well."

"What do you think of these two?"

"Na Nali, Dark Blood Demon..." Di Tian pondered for a moment.

These two could be considered Tang Wulin's "old friends" in the future. Na Nali would try to seduce and assassinate him, while Dark Blood Demon would curse his adoptive parents to death.

And now, they would be accompanying him to prepare a "Combat Power Gift Pack" for Tang Wulin, laying down some hidden pieces in advance.

Tsk, fate truly was a wondrous thing!

"Fine. These two, then."

The Demon Empress nodded. "When should we contact them and have them come over?"

"Now?"

"No. I still need to make some preparations."

With that, Di Tian left the room and headed for the Secluded Chamber reserved for closed-door cultivation, where he focused on refining a Combat Power Gift Pack for Tang Wulin.

After all, he not only had to ensure that the refined Dragon God Bloodline was brimming with energy, but also keep it hidden enough that no one else would discover it. It required careful preparation.

Back where she stood, the Demon Empress watched Di Tian leave without the slightest hesitation, teasingly voicing a question in her heart. He just left like that?

Did he really need Whale Rubber?

That shouldn't be right. Didn't they say dragons were inherently lustful, with exceptionally powerful capabilities?

Should I go ask the Buddha Child?

While she was still letting her imagination run wild, Di Tian had already entered the secluded cultivation chamber within the Forging Masters Association Headquarters.

The moment he entered, Di Tian withdrew his awareness from the outside world. With the Demon Empress standing guard outside, there was no need for him to do anything extra. He could devote all his attention to overcoming the difficult problem before him.

Just as he had done when refining pure Dragon God Bloodline for the advancement of battle armor and mechas, he used the Dragon God Claw and Dragon God Core to stimulate the awakening and evolution of the Dragon God Bloodline.

Of course, refining the Dragon God Bloodline was only the first step.

Afterward, he needed to compress it into the volume of a single drop of blood, bringing it close to the level of essence blood. That would ensure the burst of power lasted only for the brief interval in which the drop of blood fused with Tang Wulin, reducing the chance of accidents.

Now, it depended on how much energy he could fill the Dragon God Bloodline with before compressing it into a single drop of essence blood.

Time passed amid the repeated cycle of refining and compression.

When the Four-Word Battle Armor and God-level Mecha belonging to the Demon Empress were forged into existence, Zi Ji arrived right on schedule.

This was Zi Ji's first time witnessing the birth of Four-Word Battle Armor and a God-level Mecha, and she was especially curious and excited.

She could indeed sense the immense power contained within the Four-Word Battle Armor and God-level Mecha. If she could wear them herself, they would undoubtedly provide a tremendous boost to her cultivation.

"Demon Empress, hurry and put them on for a look!"

Judging from the urgency in her voice, Zi Ji was even more excited than the Demon Empress herself.

"Alright!"

In truth, the Demon Empress was no less excited than Zi Ji.

It was not merely because Four-Word Battle Armor and a God-level Mecha suited to her had been forged. At her cultivation of over nine hundred thousand years, battle armor and mechas of this level offered little increase.

More importantly, before Di Tian entered closed-door cultivation, he had told her how to advance battle armor and mechas to Five-Word and True God level. Those would be genuine divine artifacts, with no small use to her.

Following Di Tian's experience from the first time he had equipped battle armor and a mecha, she fused her own blood with them. Her bloodline merged with the armor, allowing her to wield it as easily as her own limbs.

With a thought of her Divine Sense, the life-infused Four-Word Battle Armor instantly covered her body. Blood-red and dark-black hues intertwined, carrying the heavy, oppressive feeling of a sea of blood.

Then, the Red God-level Mecha covered her body and merged with the Four-Word Battle Armor, finally allowing the Demon Empress to feel some increase in combat power—though only some.

The increase in combat power was barely worth mentioning. The only notable point was that the God-level Mecha's vivid red tone matched the Four-Word Battle Armor's dark-black and blood-red color scheme quite well.

After briefly sensing it, the Demon Empress concealed the battle armor and mecha beneath her skin, within her body.

She began using her immense Soul Power and Spiritual Power, far surpassing that of an ordinary Limit Douluo, to cleanse and nurture the battle armor and mecha again and again.

She hoped that, before the moment of ascension arrived, the Four-Word Battle Armor and God-level Mecha could reach their peak in every aspect.

Then, when her Soul Power and Spiritual Power evolved into divine power and divine consciousness, the battle armor and mecha could immediately advance to Five-Word and True God level.

At the side, Zi Ji, who had been watching without blinking, gradually furrowed her brows.

"Is it because my strength is too far below yours, so I can't see clearly? Or is there something wrong with your Four-Word Battle Armor and God-level Mecha? The increase doesn't seem very great."

Hearing this, the Demon Empress withdrew her inward gaze and explained, "My cultivation is not much different from Di Tian's before he underwent the Million Year Heavenly Tribulation. The Four-Word Battle Armor and God-level Mecha provide only a small increase to me, and even less to Di Tian."

"Of course, you needn't worry. Once you put on Four-Word Battle Armor and a God-level Mecha, you should be able to bring their combat power enhancement to nearly its fullest extent."

"That's true."

With her doubts dispelled, Zi Ji nodded repeatedly and began considering the requirements for forging her own Four-Word Battle Armor and God-level Mecha.

At the side stood Xie Yinling, a member of the Forging Masters Association's guardian family. Only now did the Demon Empress lift the Soul Power seal that had blocked his five senses, allowing him to begin listening to Zi Ji's requirements.

Zi Ji not only stated the forging requirements for her own battle armor and mecha, but also brought Bi Ji's requirements for her battle armor and mecha.

After all, unlike Zi Ji, who could come out whenever she spoke of it, Bi Ji held a far more important position within the Spirit Pagoda and at Gu Yue's side.

Once he had confirmed that everything was clearly recorded, Xie Yinling lowered his head and hurriedly retreated from the room. The women in the room were simply too terrifying.

Neither Zhen Hua nor Mu Ye was willing to have much contact with members of Di Tian's faction, so the miserable task of serving as a messenger naturally fell upon Xie Yinling.
