The Plan

"Xiao Tian, your martial soul has already awakened. As for your first soul ring, don't be in a rush to obtain it; Sister Xue will arrange everything for you."

Qin Tian listened to Qian Renxue's words, his face full of smiles. After walking to her side, he opened his arms to hug her. Of course, since he had just awakened his martial soul and had no soul rings attached, he could only hug Qian Renxue's waist.

"Sister Xue, I will listen to everything you say."

The two looked at each other and both smiled.

"Alright, let's head out first. It won't do to disappear for too long."

As she finished speaking, golden light surged around Qian Renxue, enveloping her in the blink of an eye. Once the golden light faded, what appeared before Qin Tian was the appearance of Xue Qinghe.

Seeing this, Qin Tian couldn't help but laugh.

"Sister Xue, when we are outside, I will address you as Brother Xue, and when there is no one around, I will call you Sister Xue."

After saying this, Qin Tian trotted toward the exit of the secret chamber, fearing that his teasing would be taken as a provocation by Qian Renxue, leading her to grab him and lecture him severely.

Qian Renxue watched his departing figure, the corners of her mouth lifting slightly as she smiled helplessly.

As Qin Tian's figure disappeared from sight, two figures emerged.

The two were none other than the Snake Lance Douluo and Pufferfish Douluo, who were protecting Qian Renxue.

"Young Master, is Qin Tian truly trustworthy? Won't he expose your identity?"

"Young Master, Qin Tian is only a six-year-old child after all. I fear he might accidentally reveal your identity. How about I go..."

Qian Renxue's expression darkened upon hearing their words, and she spoke in a deep voice.

"Do you two still not understand Xiao Tian's temperament? After three years together, his maturity is far beyond that of a six-year-old child. Sometimes I even wonder if he is truly just a six-year-old."

"I trust Xiao Tian; he will not expose my identity. Furthermore, Xiao Tian possesses a super martial soul and Innate Full Soul Power. As long as he is nurtured well, my Martial Soul Hall will surely gain a Super Douluo in the future—no, perhaps even a Peak Douluo."

Having said that, Qian Renxue glanced at the two and walked directly toward the desk.

"Elder Pufferfish, deliver this secret letter to Grandfather. Remember, it is to my grandfather, not to that woman. Do not let a single detail of what happened here leak out."

As she spoke, Qian Renxue was already picking up a brush to write.

She wanted to inform her grandfather, Qian Daoliu, about the Whale Rubber and Qin Tian's situation, while also securing resources for Qin Tian.

Snake Lance Douluo and Pufferfish Douluo listened to Qian Renxue's words, exchanged a look, and nodded solemnly toward her.

"Yes, Young Master."

The two would naturally not leak what happened here. There was no other reason than the fact that they had naturally taken sides from the moment they began protecting Qian Renxue. They belonged to the faction of the Grand Pontiff Qian Daoliu; as for the Pope's faction, the two could only scoff.

After writing the secret letter, Qian Renxue infused it with soul power and handed it to Pufferfish Douluo.

Pufferfish Douluo took the letter and, without saying a word, walked directly toward the outer chamber of the secret room.

Qian Renxue watched Pufferfish Douluo leave, glanced at the Snake Lance Douluo beside her, and spoke in a deep voice.

"Elder Snake Lance, arrange for our people to secretly collect Whale Rubber. Collect all the Whale Rubber on the market, whether it is hundred-year, thousand-year, or ten-thousand-year, I want it all."

"This matter must be conducted in secret. Do not cause a stir, and do not let anyone notice."

Hearing Qian Renxue's words, Snake Lance Douluo bowed respectfully to her.

"Young Master, I will go and make the arrangements now. I guarantee it will not attract anyone's attention."

Qian Renxue nodded slightly. Watching the departing Snake Lance Douluo, she waited until his figure had vanished before letting her gaze fall into the void, whispering to herself.

"Xiao Tian, I am very much looking forward to your performance."

"I wonder what kind of expression you will have when, in the future, Xiao Tian defeats Hu Liena, whom you value so much."

Qin Tian was naturally unaware of what had transpired in the secret chamber. After exiting, he returned directly to his room.

Back in his room, he sat at his desk and pondered silently.

After a long period of contemplation, he began to write.

First, arrange for people to watch Tang San; this concerned his subsequent plans.

Second, plot to seize the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. He did not want to leave the immortal herbs within it to Tang San. Without the aid of those herbs, how much potential would Tang San, Dai Mubai, Ning Rongrong, and the others really have?

Among the Shrek Seven Devils, the one with the greatest potential was Oscar, who possessed Innate Full Soul Power in the food system. As for the others, he didn't even take them seriously.

Dai Mubai was only level thirty-seven at fifteen years old. Without the aid of immortal herbs, it was a question of whether he could even survive the brutal struggles of the Star Luo Imperial Family.

Ma Hongjun, the Evil Fire Phoenix—without the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, the evil fire could burn him to death.

Ning Rongrong—without the Aromatic Silk Beauty, could she still break through the limitations of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda?

Xiao Wu, the hundred-thousand-year Soft Bone Rabbit—it would be better if she were turned into a soul ring and soul bone.

As for Zhu Zhuqing, who struggled constantly to defy her fate, Qin Tian actually admired her quite a bit. If possible, taking her under his command wouldn't be out of the question.

He had always admired those who dared to defy their fate. Even if the odds of success were low, that courage alone was rare.

However, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was the territory of the Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo. To obtain these immortal herbs, the first thing to resolve was Dugu Bo.

Qin Tian couldn't help but ponder privately. Dugu Bo could be considered for recruitment into his ranks. If it were truly a last resort, he would have to let him perish.

But Qin Tian believed that as long as he could resolve the defects in his family's martial soul, Dugu Bo would surely agree. However, making Dugu Bo submit would be impossible without the power of the Worship Hall.

Third, the hundred-thousand-year soul bone of the Blue Silver Emperor.

The Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone of the Blue Silver Emperor comes with two skills: the first is Wildfire Cannot Burn Out, Spring Breeze Blows Again, and the second is Flight.

The Flight skill is optional for him; after all, he awakened the Holy Light Tiger King, which allows him to fly once he activates Martial Soul Possession. If he masters his soul power to the extreme, he could even manifest wings to fly.

However, the skill Wildfire Cannot Burn Out, Spring Breeze Blows Again is far from simple. Its powerful healing and regenerative abilities mean that even with the most severe injuries, as long as one still has a breath left, one can recover.

Furthermore, what he values most is the ability to regrow severed limbs; as long as he possesses the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone, he can replace his soul bones.

Do not forget, he possesses two martial souls; how could he ever lack Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones in the future?

In the plan of Qin Tian, he intends to absorb ten-thousand-year soul bones during the early stages as a transition. Of course, this does not include the skull and torso bones, as once those are truly absorbed, they can never be replaced.

The limb soul bones are different; as long as he has the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone, he can perform replacements. As for the vitality consumed during the replacement process, he naturally has ways to compensate for it.

Qin Tian pondered to himself while silently writing.

He not only wrote down the opportunities he knew of, but also recorded the geniuses of the future. If possible, he would not let any of these geniuses slip through his fingers.

Shui Bing'er, Feng Xiaotian, Huo Wu, and others—the potential of these people is not small. If he could recruit them to his side, they would be a great help in the future.

Time slipped away quietly as Qin Tian wrote, and the afterglow of the setting sun spilled across the world.
