Level-Twelve Fixed-Installation Soul Tool Shell!

One shell could reduce a Limit Douluo to ash!

When Lin Xuan's casual words spread across the entire Douluo Continent through the Sky Curtain, it was as though someone had pressed pause on time!

The entire world fell deathly silent!

Within the Chat Group, the scrolling messages froze instantly. It was as if an invisible hand had clutched everyone's throats, leaving them unable to utter a single word!

What did a Limit Douluo represent?

They were beings who stood at Rank Ninety-Nine and looked down upon all living things! Tang Chen, Qian Daoliu, Bo Saixi! The ultimate level humans in this plane could attain!

Yet now, this senior in green claimed that a kind of "shell" from his memories could instantly kill such an existence?!

What kind of joke was this?!

This was even more outrageous than divine punishment!

Shrek Academy.

"Pfft—!"

Yu Xiaogang, who had just regained consciousness after Tang San fed him an antidote pill, could no longer suppress the blood surging up his throat upon hearing those words. He sprayed it out wildly, and the faint color that had returned to his face vanished at once, leaving him pale as paper!

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Looking utterly deranged, he pointed at the Sky Curtain and roared, "Lies! This is a complete lie! How could a mere external object possess power comparable to the gods?! This completely violates the fundamental laws of Soul Master cultivation! It is heretical nonsense!"

His theories, his pride, and the Martial Soul worldview he had spent his entire life constructing were utterly ground into dust by a single sentence from Lin Xuan!

After the silence, the Chat Group erupted even more frantically!

[Ning Fengzhi: Hiss... this old man's heart... it can barely take it...]

[Chen Xin: One blast... killing a Limit Douluo? A lifetime of sword cultivation, yet it cannot compare to the might of a single shell? How absurd! And how... desirable!]

[Bibi Dong: If... if Spirit Hall possessed such power...]

Unprecedented greed and desire burst forth from Pope Bibi Dong's eyes!

If she could master such technology, what two great empires, what Upper Three Sects? They could all be wiped out with a flick of her hand! Unifying the continent would no longer be a dream!

Within the Endless Fire Domain.

As though he had seen through the thoughts of everyone outside, Lin Xuan curled his lips in disdain.

Looking at the utterly stunned Tang Potian and Poseidon before him, he continued in that calm tone, building a brand-new worldview for them—and for the entire continent.

"The development of Soul Tools follows a clear path."

"A Level-One Soul Tool corresponds to a Soul Scholar. Level Two corresponds to a Soul Master. This Level-Three Soul Tool Gun you just made is already powerful enough to threaten a Soul Elder."

"Following that logic, Level Four corresponds to a Soul Ancestor, Level Five to a Soul King, Level Six to a Soul Emperor, Level Seven to a Soul Sage, Level Eight to a Soul Douluo..."

"And a Level-Nine Soul Tool is enough to grant its user the power to contend with an ordinary Title Douluo!"

Boom!

Those words were like bolts of heavenly lightning, striking every person squarely atop the head!

A clear, complete, yet utterly world-shattering Soul Tool ranking system had been casually revealed to the world by Lin Xuan!

Yu Xiaogang's eyes rolled back. Amid Tang San's terrified cries, he suffered another surge of fury and passed out completely!

It was over!

His theories had become a complete joke!

Yet the leaders of countless other factions were breathing rapidly, their eyes bloodshot!

Level-Nine Soul Tools!

They could allow ordinary people to contend with Title Douluo?!

What did that mean?

It meant that as long as they had sufficient resources, they could mass-produce combat power on the level of "Title Douluo"!

This... would be the key to changing the entire continent's military landscape!

The image on the Sky Curtain began shifting rapidly.

Under Lin Xuan's guidance, Tang Potian and Poseidon immersed themselves completely in Soul Tool research.

Before long, they created a peculiar Soul Tool capable of transmitting voices across great distances.

"This is called a 'Sound Transmission Conch.' It can transmit voices over a thousand li."

Immediately afterward, with the Food God Douluo's assistance, they developed support-type Soul Tools capable of accelerating plant growth, purifying water sources, and improving soil.

The food production of the Endless Fire Domain began increasing crazily at a geometric rate!

With the power of Soul Tools, merely a dozen or so people could create food reserves sufficient to feed a massive city with a population of one million!

Technology was the primary productive force!

That saying was displayed to its fullest within the Endless Fire Domain!

Time flew by, and five years passed in the blink of an eye.

The Endless Fire Domain was no longer the barren land it had once been.

With technology far beyond its era and inexhaustible resources, Tang Potian attracted several thousand extraordinarily gifted Soul Masters and commoners to join him.

They settled down and lived peacefully there, their cultivation improving by leaps and bounds. They revered Lin Xuan and Tang Potian as gods!

That day, after receiving Lin Xuan's permission, Tang Potian gathered all his subordinates and officially established a sect!

Standing atop a mountain peak, he held the evolved dark-gold giant hammer in his hand. His voice boomed like a great bell, echoing through the clouds!

"Today, I, Tang Potian, establish a sect by my master's command!"

"The sect's name shall be taken from the Martial Soul in my hand!"

"This sect shall be called—Clear Sky Sect!"

As those words fell, everyone in the Clear Sky Sect outside the Sky Curtain—from Sect Master Tang Xiao to the ordinary disciples—was dumbfounded!

Completely dumbfounded!

[Tang Xiao: ???]

[Tang Hao: ??? Ancestor... founded the Clear Sky Sect? Then what... what are we?]

[Clear Sky Sect Disciple A: Holy shit! So the Clear Sky Sect we have now is a counterfeit?]

[Clear Sky Sect Disciple B: No! The ancestor was the first generation! We're the ones who inherited it! But... but why does this feel so strange?!]

The entire Clear Sky Sect descended into chaos!

The sect history they had been so proud of, and their glory as the number-one weapon Martial Soul sect beneath the heavens, all seemed laughable at this moment!

It turned out that their sect was merely a faction founded by a servant under this senior in green!

Their prestige had instantly plummeted into the dirt!

And what shocked the world even more was yet to come!

Another five years passed.

Tang Potian and Poseidon's Soul Tool technology had reached an inconceivable realm.

That day, within the most central forging chamber of the Endless Fire Domain.

Sea God Douluo Poseidon floated cross-legged in the air, his eyes tightly shut. His vast, ocean-like god-level spiritual power poured forth without restraint, outlining hundreds of millions of golden energy circuits in the void. Their complexity was enough to make any Level-Nine Soul Engineer suffer a spiritual collapse with a single glance!

Below him, Tang Potian stood bare-chested, gripping the Clear Sky Hammer as he repeatedly forged and fused blocks of rare metal glittering with divine light!

The two were joining forces to forge an unprecedented masterpiece!

Buzz—!

No one knew how much time passed. When the final hammer fell, golden light shot ten thousand zhang into the sky!

A strange dark-gold Soul Tool shaped like a pyramid floated quietly in midair!

The aura it emitted was ancient and vast, as though it contained an endless sea of stars!

Outside the Sky Curtain, within the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

Xue Ye shot up from his throne and stared fixedly at the Sky Curtain, crying out in shock:

"The Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud!"

"H-How is this possible?! This is clearly the national treasure my Heaven Dou Empire has inherited for twenty thousand years!"

That was right!

The Soul Tool displayed in the Sky Curtain looked exactly like the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud hidden within the Heaven Dou royal family's treasury!

The Chat Group instantly exploded!

[Yu Yuanzhen: Holy shit! The Heaven Dou Empire's national treasure was actually made by this senior?!]

[Bone Douluo: Absurd! This is fucking absurd beyond belief!]

[Xue Ye: Senior! May I ask, Senior! What exactly is going on?!]

However, the Mysterious Person's next words in the Sky Curtain made Xue Ye—and everyone else across the continent—feel as though they had fallen into an icy abyss, chilled to the bone!

Lin Xuan glanced at the glittering Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, then shook his head slightly, a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.

"Not enough."

"This Soul Tool has the potential to evolve endlessly."

He looked toward Poseidon and slowly spoke. His voice was not loud, yet every person heard it clearly.

"Once you have studied Soul Tool theory to its utmost limit, you may attempt to upgrade its core formation once more."

"At that time, it will become..."

"An existence beyond a Level-Twelve Soul Tool!"
