Worship Hall

"Thump! Thump-thump!"

Qin Tian pulled his thoughts back as the door was knocked. He glanced at the paper on his desk covered in his handwriting, and without the slightest hesitation, he channeled his soul power into his palm, pulverizing the paper into dust.

This was his secret, and he naturally would not let it be exposed.

He rose and walked to the door, opening it to see the guard standing there.

"Young Master Tian, His Highness the Crown Prince is waiting for you to dine together."

Hearing this, Qin Tian raised his eyes slightly to look at the sky outside.

"Is it that late already?"

He murmured softly before heading toward the dining hall.

When he arrived at the dining hall and saw Qian Renxue sitting there, a touch of gentleness appeared in his eyes.

"Brother Xue!"

Hearing Qin Tian's call, Qian Renxue looked up at the approaching boy, her face also breaking into a pleasant expression.

"Come quickly, Xiao Tian. Today, I've prepared the sturgeon and bear paw you love."

Qin Tian walked to the dining table and looked at the spread, unable to help but sigh inwardly; this life was truly extravagant.

The table was filled with delicacies that flew in the sky, ran on the ground, and swam in the water. This single meal alone would cost hundreds of Gold Soul Coins.

An ordinary family of three would spend only one Gold Soul Coin over several months, yet a single meal for Qin Tian and Qian Renxue cost hundreds.

Qin Tian did not stand on ceremony and began to eat immediately.

Qian Renxue watched Qin Tian, occasionally picking up a handkerchief to wipe the grease from the corners of his mouth.

When Qin Tian set down his chopsticks, Qian Renxue did the same.

"Xiao Tian, are you full?"

Qin Tian let out a comfortable burp, leaned back in his chair, tilted his head to look at Qian Renxue, and nodded slightly.

"If you're full, come with Brother Xue."

Qian Renxue didn't mention what it was about, and Qin Tian didn't ask; the two of them walked out of the dining hall just like that.

After arriving at her room, Qin Tian scanned the interior, his eyes filled with curiosity.

Although this was not his first time in Qian Renxue's room, he still couldn't help but look around.

Qian Renxue took out a piece of Whale Rubber, and a ball of flame appeared in her palm, beginning to melt it.

Seeing this, Qin Tian understood immediately.

"Xiao Tian, this is century-old Whale Rubber. Take this first. Once the century-old Whale Rubber loses its effect, you can move on to millennium-old Whale Rubber, and then ten-thousand-year Whale Rubber."

"Everything must be done step by step. You awakened your martial soul today; if you were to swallow millennium or ten-thousand-year Whale Rubber directly, I fear that..."

Listening to Qian Renxue's words, Qin Tian naturally knew she was doing this for his own good, and he would not refuse.

"Sister Xue, you don't need to say anymore, I understand."

Looking at the softened Whale Rubber, Qin Tian took it from Qian Renxue's hand and swallowed it in one gulp.

The Whale Rubber had a thick, fishy taste upon entering his mouth, but fortunately, he had swallowed it whole.

Once the Whale Rubber reached his stomach, he sat cross-legged, circulated his meditation technique, and wrapped his soul power around the substance to begin refining it.

A warm current flowed from his abdomen to his limbs and bones; Qin Tian knew the medicinal effects of the Whale Rubber had begun.

At the same time, a fire of desire slowly rose, and his body began to heat up continuously.

Seeing this, Qian Renxue reached out her right hand, pressed her palm against Qin Tian's back, and circulated her soul power to help him refine the energy of the Whale Rubber.

Martial Soul City, Worship Hall.

Grand Pontiff Qian Daoliu looked at the letter in his hand, his calm, stagnant eyes showing a slight change.

"You all should take a look!"

Grand Pontiff Qian Daoliu channeled his soul power, and under his control, the letter drifted into the hands of Second Worship Golden Crocodile.

Second Worship Golden Crocodile read the letter, his brow furrowing more as he went on. After a long while, he passed the letter to Third Worship Qingluan Douluo.

"Pufferfish, is that Qin Tian truly Innate Full Soul Power? And has Xue'er already confessed everything to him?"

Hearing Grand Pontiff Qian Daoliu's inquiry, Pufferfish responded respectfully at once.

"Reporting to the Grand Pontiff, the Young Master has confessed everything to Qin Tian. Qin Tian possesses the super beast martial soul, Holy Light Tiger King, and he indeed has Innate Full Soul Power."

Qian Daoliu nodded slightly, though a trace of worry lingered in his eyes.

In just an instant, he thought of many things, but in the end, it all turned into a sigh.

"Very well, let Xue'er do as she pleases. Even if the plan fails, it is of no consequence."

Hearing Qian Daoliu's sentiment, Pufferfish Douluo pondered for a moment before speaking in a low voice.

"Grand Pontiff, Qin Tian was adopted by the Young Master three years ago. His temperament is steady, and he shares a deep bond with the Young Master. I imagine..."

Before Pufferfish Douluo could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Qian Daoliu, "You should return first to protect Xue'er."

Pufferfish Douluo heard these words, bowed respectfully to the Seven Great Worships, and then withdrew from the Worship Hall.

Once the great doors of the Worship Hall closed again, Qian Daoliu unleashed his soul power, enveloping the entire hall within it.

"Big Brother, if what Qian Renxue said is true, then Whale Rubber is truly a rare treasure."

"Tempering the physique, honing the body, expanding the meridians, and increasing the age limit of soul rings—if this is real, the strength of our Martial Soul Hall could be greatly enhanced."

"Qin Tian, Innate Full Soul Power, twin martial souls, a super beast martial soul and a super tool martial soul; he is indeed a rare talent."

The six great worships spoke one after another, while Qian Daoliu remained silent, listening quietly.

Only when the six great worships ceased their chatter did he slowly begin to speak.

"Whether the matter of the Whale Rubber is true, we need only test it to find out. However, regarding Qin Tian..."

Qian Daoliu pondered to himself how he should treat Qin Tian.

There was no other reason than the fact that Qin Tian's potential was simply too great. With twin martial souls, both of which were super martial souls, combined with Innate Full Soul Power, if nothing went wrong, he would inevitably become a Limit Douluo, an existence like himself—no, perhaps even surpassing him.

Qin Tian's potential even surpassed that of Bibi Dong. Others might not know about Bibi Dong, but he, Qian Daoliu, was well aware that she was currently undergoing a God Trial.

Why did Bibi Dong have a God Trial? It was precisely because of her potential. And Qin Tian was just like her; it was not impossible that he would be favored by a god in the future.

"Big Brother, let Qian Renxue handle the matter of Qin Tian. I believe she knows how to make the right choice. For now, what we must do is verify the Whale Rubber."

Hearing this, Qian Daoliu stopped dwelling on Qin Tian and nodded silently.

"Seventh, go and retrieve a piece of century-old Whale Rubber."

The Seventh Worship, Subduing Demon Douluo, heard Qian Daoliu's words, nodded slightly, and rose to walk out of the Worship Hall.

Not long after, Subduing Demon Douluo returned to the Worship Hall, and the six of them all looked toward him.

Subduing Demon Douluo took a piece of century-old Whale Rubber from his storage soul tool and, wrapping it in soul power, sent it before Qian Daoliu.

A ball of flame appeared in Qian Daoliu's palm, enveloping and refining the Whale Rubber.

In just a few breaths, a strange fragrance wafted out.

Once the Whale Rubber had completely softened, Qian Daoliu swallowed it directly and circulated his soul power to refine it.

As he refined the Whale Rubber, Qian Daoliu silently sensed the changes in his body.

When he opened his eyes again, a flash of brilliance flickered and vanished within them.

"It is true!"

As he spoke, he looked at the six great worships to the side and said in a deep voice.

"Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, you shall make a trip to the sea to obtain Whale Rubber for Qian Renxue."

The Second Worship, Golden Crocodile Douluo; Third Worship, Qingluan Douluo; Fourth Worship, Mighty Lion Douluo; Fifth Worship, Light Feather Douluo; Sixth Worship, Qianjun Douluo; and Seventh Worship, Subduing Demon Douluo all stood up in unison.

"Big Brother, rest assured. We shall head to the sea at once to seek out Whale Rubber for Qian Renxue."

Since they knew the matter of the Whale Rubber was true, they naturally had to take action. Do not forget, they were not only obtaining Whale Rubber for Qian Renxue, but also preparing it for the younger generation of their own families.

They all had families behind them; how could they miss out on something that could increase the age limit of a soul master's soul rings?
