The Lure of Soul Bones
Qian Daoliu shook his head and said, "Xue'er, that kid Qin Yun is too strange."
"This boy's methods are unpredictable."
"Moreover, he possesses many deadly weapons that do not contain Soul Power."
Even if Grandpa were facing him now, he wouldn't dare say he could definitely defeat him.
The nuclear explosion that razed Clear Sky Sect had a profound impact on him.
"What you need to do now is to cultivate diligently and pass the Angel Nine Trials as quickly as possible."
"Until you become a true Angel God."
"Those iron lumps, no matter how powerful, are still just ordinary things. They're at your mercy."
Qian Renxue pursed her lips, offering no rebuttal.
"There's one more thing." Qian Daoliu's tone turned serious.
"Bibi Dong may also be undergoing Divine Trial."
"Although Grandpa didn't witness it firsthand, the speed at which her cultivation has improved over the years cannot be hidden from anyone."
"Twin Martial Souls, if she were to obtain Godhood..." Qian Daoliu looked at his granddaughter.
"She harbors a deep resentment towards your father and our Qian Family. If she becomes a god, the situation will be unpredictable."
"By then, it will be hard to say what the Spirit Hall will be under."
After Qian Renxue her grandfather's words...
He said, "I understand, Grandpa."
"I will now begin my secluded cultivation to become a god in the shortest possible time."
She supported herself as she stepped down from the jade platform, bowed deeply to the Angel sculpture, and then turned and left the main hall.
Qian Daoliu watched her retreating figure, feeling a mixture of relief and sorrow.

Heaven Dou City, Imperial Palace.
On Xue Ye received military reports from the front lines.
The military newspaper wrote it in great detail:
With Linxing Pass breached, the Heaven Dou army marched straight in.
However, the Spirit Hall then retreated across the board, breaking into smaller groups and sending small groups of Soul Master to harass the enemy. Ordinary soldiers in the army were ambushed by Soul Master, and casualties increased daily.
At the end of the military report, Commander Zhao's words were earnest.
They wanted to ask Xue Ye to intervene and request more Electromagnetic Explosive Bomb from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
He understood what General Zhao meant. What the front lines lacked was not soldiers, but something that would allow ordinary soldiers to stand firm against Soul Master.
But this was something he couldn't bring himself to talk about, or even should not talk about.
After careful consideration, he instructed the eunuch, "Please invite Sect Master Ning and Young Friend Qin to the palace."
Soon, Ning Fengzhi and Qin Yun arrived at the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Xue Ye rose, quickly stepped down from his throne, and said with a smile.
"Please have a seat! There's no need for such formalities, you two."
"The breakthrough at Linxing Pass was largely thanks to Young Friend Qin's assistance in sending Poison Douluo."
"Moreover, my Heaven Dou Empire owes its current state to you all."
Ning Fengzhi said, "Your Majesty is too kind. The Spirit Hall is our common enemy."
"This is what we should do."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xue Ye dismissed his attendants, leaving only the three of them in the hall, and began to discuss serious matters.
You should already know what's happening at the front.
"The Spirit Hall, taking advantage of the Soul Master ' strength, has begun to employ harassment tactics against us."
"We lack Soul Master; do you have any good solutions?"
Xue Ye was extremely shrewd.
He knew the power of the Electromagnetic Explosive Bomb, and what such a weapon, capable of severely injuring Soul Master with ordinary people, meant to Soul Master sects.
He understood that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect couldn't provide it in large quantities.
Therefore, he cannot ask for it.
So he presented the problems he encountered at the front lines to Ning Fengzhi and Qin Yun, hoping they could offer some good solutions.
Ning Fengzhi hesitated for a moment and did not answer.
Qin Yun then spoke directly.
"Your Majesty, leave this matter to me."
Xue Ye was taken aback.
He had expected to have to use a lot of persuasion, but the other party agreed so readily.
"Young friend Qin, do you really have a solution?"
"There's no solution to speak of," Qin Yun said.
"But Your Majesty, rest assured, the Spirit Hall's harassment tactics will naturally be crippled within three months."
Xue Ye didn't investigate further and clapped his hands, laughing.
"Very well! Since young friend Qin puts it that way, then I'll wait and see."
The three chatted for a while longer.
The Xue Ye invited them to have a meal before releasing them.
It was already late when they returned to the sect.
Qin Yun did not rest, but instead summoned all the people in charge of the sect.
Ning Fengzhi sat to one side.
"Now we need you to send a message outward."
"It is said that Soul Master whose Soul Power reaches the fifth ring or above, who joins my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, will be directly rewarded with a Soul Bone."
These words shocked everyone present.
The managers exchanged glances, thinking Qin Yun had misspoke.
What is Soul Bone?
An opportunity that every Soul Master dreams of their entire life, one that countless Soul Sage Soul Douluo can never even dream of.
Now, is it still used as a gift when someone comes to seek refuge, or is it given to everyone?
Everyone looked at Ning Fengzhi, who was sitting there. "Sect... Sect Master, this..."
Ning Fengzhi said, "Do as Xiao Qin instructs."
The two had already discussed this decision.
Nowadays, disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect are rewarded with Soul Bone once their Soul Power reaches a certain level.
However, they did not expect that the sect leader would recruit people in this way.
According to the sect's rules, disciples receive one piece of gold when they break through Level 40, and another piece when they reach level 50; that's the treatment reserved for family members.
Now that it's open to the outside world, and the Fifth Ring Road is offering incentives, are they bringing in talented people or ticking time bombs?
How do we manage these Soul Master?
However, the sect leader surely has his own ways of handling these matters; they just need to follow orders.
That very night, the messenger from the clan set off.
The next day, the news spread far and wide from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School's trading post.
This news sent shockwaves through mainland China.
When the spies from Spirit City relayed this message to Bibi Dong, Bibi Dong couldn't believe it was true.
Inside a teahouse,
"Have you heard? The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is recruiting Soul Master; Five-Ring Soul King can obtain a Soul Bone."
"How could that be? It must be fake."
"How many Soul Beast would it take to find a single Soul Bone?"
"How many disciples does their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect have? Do any of their disciples possess Soul Bone?"
I've heard they have them.
"Disciples of their sect can receive a Soul Bone as soon as they break through Level 40, and another one at level 50."
An old man at the next table scoffed, "What a pipe dream."
"I've hunted Soul Beast my whole life, but I've never even seen what Soul Bone looks like."
"You might not find even one out of a thousand Soul Beast. Where did the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect get so many in stock?"
"The old gentleman doesn't understand it thoroughly," came the voice of a middle-aged man at the same table.
"Niu Gao, the Defense Clan recently joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, is fully equipped with six Soul Bone."
"His ability to withstand Titled Douluo without being at a disadvantage, relying on his Soul Bone, is widely known and cannot be denied."
"Six pieces?" The old man's eyelids twitched.
The man continued, "Many elders in their sect possess at least three Soul Bone."
The old man stroked his beard and fell silent.
This man was actually the one who spread information for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
After the news spread, many people wanted to go and see it.
"I just broke the fifth ring, let's go check it out!"
"If they really give me Soul Bone, joining the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect isn't out of the question!"
"Walk!"
