Tang Lie Breaks Through to Title, Let Me Absorb the Ninth White Soul Ring?

Within the Clear Sky Sect, Sect Master Tang Xiao was gathered together with the elders.

Just this morning, the Seventh Elder, Tang Lie, had finally broken through to level 90, catching up to the pace of all the other elders.

"Not bad, you finally broke through!"

"Now, all five of our elders are Title Douluo."

"It's a pity, though, that the breakthrough came a little too late. If it had been just a bit earlier, we could have hunted a powerful soul ring!"

"Indeed, what a shame..."

"Otherwise, with the strength of our brothers, hunting a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast would have been a breeze."

"Forget about a hundred-thousand-year soul ring; nowadays, you can't even find a hundred-year soul ring!"

"..."

The Second Elder and the others had started by congratulating Tang Lie on reaching level 90.

But as the conversation went on, their faces were filled with regret and disappointment.

Tang Lie, who had initially worn a smile, slowly grew gloomy as well.

There was no helping it; he was the very person being discussed.

If anyone was the most anxious about the disappearance of soul beasts, he felt it had to be him.

This was his breakthrough to level 90, his breakthrough to becoming a Title Douluo!

"Seventh Elder, try to look on the bright side!"

"I know you might find it hard to accept, but nowadays, forget about ten-thousand-year soul rings; even a ten-year soul ring is hard to find!"

"Any ten-year soul beast that appears is snatched up frantically; it's not easy to catch even one!"

"Besides, our Clear Sky Sect has never relied on soul skills generated by soul rings. We have plenty of Self-Created Soul Skills, so to us, there is no difference between a ten-year soul ring and a hundred-thousand-year soul ring."

Tang Xiao spoke up to console Tang Lie.

"I know, Sect Master!"

Tang Lie sighed; he knew Tang Xiao was right.

It was just that he found it truly difficult to accept that his ninth soul ring would be a ten-year white soul ring.

Calling it ten years was being generous; it was really just a one-year soul ring that had just been born.

"Sect Master, I am going to search for a soul beast. I will not return until I find one!"

After saying this, Tang Lie turned and left.

If he had reached the Title Douluo realm before the soul beasts disappeared, a group of people would certainly be helping him hunt a soul beast right now.

Because he wouldn't even consider anything below eighty thousand years.

To hunt such a powerful soul beast, he would have needed help.

But now, since he was only hunting a one-year soul beast, there was naturally no need for anyone else to assist him.

"What a pity!"

"If only we could still find powerful soul beasts!"

The Second Elder and the others watched Tang Lie's retreating figure and sighed.

"Sect Master, now that even the Seventh has broken through to Title Douluo!"

"Including you, our Clear Sky Sect now has six Title Douluo. When shall we reopen the sect gates?"

The Second Elder then looked at Tang Xiao with burning eyes and asked.

In the past, the Clear Sky Sect only had Tang Xiao as a Title Douluo.

They had been bullied by Martial Soul Hall to the point where they dared not speak, eventually leading them to seal the sect gates.

Over these years, the remaining five elders had broken through the shackles between level 89 and 90 one after another, driven by the extreme humiliation and unwillingness they felt.

Previously, their Clear Sky Sect only had one Title Douluo, so they endured and sealed the gates.

Now that they had six Title Douluo, did they still need to continue enduring?

"Indeed!"

"Sect Master, when will our Clear Sky Sect emerge?"

"With such major events happening on the continent, this is the perfect time for us to emerge!"

"If we emerge now, I suspect not many people will notice us; everyone is too busy rushing to find soul beasts!"

"..."

After the Second Elder finished speaking, the other elders chimed in one after another.

None of them wanted to continue enduring.

"Reopening the sect gates..."

"Let us wait until the Seventh Elder returns before we discuss this together!"

Tang Xiao did not immediately agree upon hearing this, choosing instead to stall for time.

He also wished to reopen the sect gates, but he simply felt the time was not yet right.

"Big Brother!"

"And all the Elders, you are all here!"

Just at that moment, a woman's voice drifted in from outside the door.

"Little Sister, why have you returned?"

Seeing that it was his younger sister who had entered, Tang Xiao happily went to greet her.

"Yuehua, stay in the sect for a good while now that you're back!"

"It has been a long time since we old fellows have seen you!"

"..."

The Second Elder and the others were also very happy to see Tang Yuehua.

"Big Brother, and all the Elders, I have returned this time to bring a message."

Tang Yuehua's expression turned serious as she spoke to Tang Xiao and the others.

"Oh?"

"What has happened?"

Tang Xiao's expression immediately turned grave as he hurriedly pressed for an answer.

"This message was given to me by Second Brother!"

As Tang Yuehua said this, a strange look crossed her face, for she knew that apart from Big Brother, everyone else in the sect held deep grievances against her Second Brother, Tang Hao, and they all still harbored resentment over the events of the past.

"Tang Hao?"

"He actually dares to show his face?"

"Where is he now? Does he want to crawl back and admit his mistakes?"

"..."

Sure enough, upon hearing Tang Yuehua's words, the expressions on the faces of the several Elders turned sour instantly.

"Little Sister, you saw Tang Hao? What message did he tell you to bring?"

Only after Tang Xiao and the other Elders had finished venting did they hurriedly look at Tang Yuehua to inquire.

"No, Second Brother did not appear; he only gave me a message!"

Tang Yuehua shook her head with a hint of disappointment at these words.

Tang Hao had appeared, yet he had not shown himself to see her, and Tang Yuehua felt deeply dejected by this.

"What is the message?"

Hearing that even his little sister had not seen Tang Hao, Tang Xiao stopped asking, knowing that Tang Hao did not wish to see them, so he asked directly about the message.

"It is a message regarding a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!"

Tang Yuehua hurriedly said.

"What?"

"A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?"

"Little Sister, you aren't joking, are you? Does Tang Hao really have information on a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?"

"Haven't all the soul beasts disappeared by now?"

Tang Xiao exclaimed in shock upon hearing this.

The Elders also widened their eyes in succession.

"It is true. Second Brother told me it is a young girl who has transformed from a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!"

"Second Brother said that when he discovered her, the girl who had transformed from the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast had already been taken away by Sword Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

"She is currently at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

Tang Yuehua continued.

"A transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!"

"So it is a transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast; no wonder she didn't disappear along with the other soul beasts. A transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast exists between the state of a soul beast and a human..."

"But that is not important. What is important is that a transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast can also drop a soul ring and a soul bone."

"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect..."

"There is no one in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect who even needs this soul ring!"

"We are determined to have this soul ring!"

"It just so happens that Seventh can use it; we must find a way to secure it."
