A Hundred-Thousand-Year Transformed Soul Beast? Is There Something Wrong with This Soul Master's Head?!
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is nestled deep within a rolling mountain range. Surrounded by these peaks stands a magnificent and vast city Seven Treasure City, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, renowned throughout the continent, occupies the heart of the city.
As the wealthiest sect on the Douluo Continent, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's assets have reached a point where they are as rich as a country.
This immense wealth is due, on the one hand, to the unique treasure appraisal and auxiliary properties of the Seven-Treasure Glazed Pagoda Martial Soul, and on the other hand, to the business acumen and keen sense of opportunity passed down through generations of the sect.
The city's immense wealth is fully embodied in its overall appearance. Within Seven Treasure City, towering pavilions and rows of buildings, with flying eaves, bracket sets, carved beams and painted rafters, and long white jade steps gleaming warmly in the sunlight, all exuding the grandeur and luxury of the top Upper Three Sects.
At this very moment, the atmosphere Discussion Hall the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was unusually heavy.
Sect Master Ning Fengzhi sat upright on the sect master's throne, gently stroking the warm jade thumb ring with one hand, his gaze deep, as if he were weighing some important decision.
On either side of the main hall, Sword Douluo Chen Xin stood with his hands behind his back, his sharp aura concealed, while Bone Douluo Gu Rong wore a pensive expression.
"Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast..." Ning Fengzhi murmured, breaking the deathly silence of the hall. He looked up at Chen Xin, his tone filled with disbelief, "Uncle Jian, is this information really accurate? Tang Hao is actually accompanied by a 100,000-year-old Transformed Soul Beast? Would a 100,000-year-old Soul Beast Transformation into a human be so foolish as to willingly follow Tang Hao?"
Chen Xin's expression was solemn as he replied in a deep voice, "Fengzhi, the intelligence is absolutely accurate. Our undercover agents have verified through multiple channels that Tang Hao is indeed accompanied by a woman who is in essence a 100,000-year-old Transformed Soul Beast. However, we have not yet figured out what kind of Ferocious Beast the Soul Beast is in its true form."
At this point, even Chen Xin's usually calm face showed a hint of confusion. "I also cannot understand. When Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast chooses to transform into human form and first enters human society, it is always trembling with fear, hiding in remote mountains or desolate villages to cultivate and avoid disaster. But she, of all people, chose Tang Hao, a highly regarded figure."
"Tang Hao is the most outstanding figure of the Clear Sky Sect in this generation, and the next sect leader. He has always acted in a high-profile manner, and countless eyes on the continent are always watching him. This Soul Beast following him is practically walking into the spotlight. No matter how skillful she is at concealing her aura, it's only a matter of time before her identity is exposed."
Sitting to the side, Gu Rong chuckled, his gaunt face full of speechlessness. "In my opinion, this Soul Beast has truly degenerated in intelligence and lost its mind. Transforming and cultivating again is already extremely dangerous, yet she insists on walking into the trap, deliberately running into the most conspicuous place."
A glint of light flashed in Ning Fengzhi's eyes as he asked directly, "So far, how many forces know the true identity of this Hundred-Thousand-Year Transformed Soul Beast?"
A 100,000-year-old Soul Beast represents the most precious treasure in the continent's Soul Master World: a guaranteed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring and a 100% guaranteed high-quality Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone!
Even the sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, who had seen countless treasures, was still overwhelmed by such a creation of heaven and earth. It would be impossible for him not to be moved.
Chen Xin stated decisively, "Currently, it seems only our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect possesses conclusive intelligence. The other forces monitoring Tang Hao's whereabouts are likely completely unaware and haven't noticed anything amiss."
"Is it only our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect that knows...?"
A meaningful smile appeared on Ning Fengzhi's lips as he lightly tapped the table with his fingertips.
Since only the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has seized the initiative, it means that they are qualified to monopolize this opportunity.
That's a walking, Hundred-Thousand-Year Transformed Soul Beast.
Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast possesses terrifying strength; even ordinary Titled Douluo would have to avoid its sharp edge.
However, Soul Beast that choose to transform and rebuild their souls are completely different. Before they have fully completed their transformation, their strength is no different from that of ordinary human Soul Master, making them much easier to capture.
Faced with such temptation, Gu Rong frowned and warned, "Fengzhi, we must be extremely cautious about this matter. Tang Hao is, after all, the core of the Clear Sky Sect and its future heir. If we forcibly take him away, Tang Hao will definitely not stand idly by. Are we really going to completely break ties with the Clear Sky Sect and forge a blood feud over this Soul Beast?"
After a brief pause, Gu Rong continued in a deep voice, "Moreover, as far as I know, Clear Sky Sect of the Tang Xiao seems to have recently broken through his cultivation barrier and stepped into the threshold of becoming Titled Douluo. Coupled with the Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect, the Clear Sky Sect now nominally boasts two Titled Douluo."
"Moreover, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has already suffered a major upheaval and been destroyed, and the Spirit Hall has also planted spies within the Upper Three Sects, making the situation extremely complicated. At this critical juncture, are we really going to take action?"
Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi calmly waved his hand, his expression indifferent. "Make a move? Why not? Just because he is Tang Hao of the Clear Sky Sect?"
"The so-called alliance Upper Three Sects is a thing of the past, existing in name only. Each sect is too busy to help itself. We are already fortunate to be able to preserve ourselves and strengthen our sect's foundation. Why should we give up readily available opportunities for the sake of a false alliance?"
Ning Fengzhi looked at the two Guardian Douluo and analyzed clearly, "As for the old sect master of the Clear Sky Sect? Don't we know exactly how deteriorated his body is? He's just a Titled Douluo at the end of his rope, half-dead, not worth worrying about at all. As for the newly promoted Tang Xiao, he's just a fledgling eagle who has just stepped into level ninety-one. Uncle Jian, Uncle Gu, do you really think you'd be afraid of him if you joined forces?"
Chen Xin spoke up, "Fengzhi is absolutely right. It is no secret that the Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect is suffering from old injuries and is nearing the end of his life. This Old Gu alone can easily restrain and dismantle him. As for Tang Xiao, who has just entered the Titled Douluo realm, he is certainly no match for me."
"As for Tang Hao? He's at most a High-Rank Soul Douluo right now, he doesn't have the power to cross the chasm at all, he absolutely can't protect this Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!"
Chen Xin added, "We must act before the Spirit Hall realizes what's happening. The Spirit Hall has eyes and ears everywhere. If we wait until their Pope and Consecrated Douluo react, this opportunity will never fall into the hands of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."
"Strike first, or suffer the consequences. Once the Spirit Hall intervenes, we won't have a chance left. Old Gu, this concerns the sect's eternal foundation; you mustn't let your womanly mercy show at this critical juncture!"
Gu Rong was rebuffed and gave a wry smile, "Am I so sentimental? I'm just thinking things through, worrying about the potential consequences of a complete break with the Clear Sky Sect in the future."
