Granted Level 90 Douluo Power (1 / 2)

"Host, leave Bibi Dong immediately and break free of her control, and you will instantly receive the system's reward: becoming a Level 90 Titled Douluo!"

In his room, Li Tianyuan had been about to bathe and had already taken off his robe when he abruptly stopped.

"System buddy?"

"Here, Host."

"Holy shit, you finally fucking showed up! Do you have any idea how I've lived all these years?!"

Li Tianyuan was so excited he wanted to cry. A college student from Blue Star, he had transmigrated into the world of the Douluo Continent. Though born to an ordinary family, he had joined Spirit Hall through his own efforts and become one of its members. He had cultivated diligently, finally breaking through to Level 30 and becoming its youngest rising talent, earning the privilege of meeting Bibi Dong.

Because he was simply too handsome, Bibi Dong had kept him in Spirit Hall after that meeting, making him her beloved plaything.

Those days had lasted two years. At first, there had been some novelty to it, but Li Tianyuan soon discovered that Bibi Dong was a madwoman whose insatiable demands made him miserable.

Unfortunately, as the Supreme Pontiff of Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong wielded power that reached the heavens. He had no hope of escaping.

But now, at last, the system had arrived!

"Calm down, Host. Your system buddy only arrived a step late. It's still not too late."

The system offered some reassurance.

"Tell me, then. What counts as leaving Bibi Dong? How do I get the reward?"

Li Tianyuan stopped dwelling on the past and asked.

"It's simple. Escape Spirit Hall, and that counts as breaking free of Bibi Dong. You'll receive the reward immediately."

His system buddy answered.

"That's my system buddy. Simple and clear."

Li Tianyuan clenched his fists, intending to leave Spirit Hall immediately.

Otherwise, in another hour, he would have to go serve Bibi Dong in secret.

By now, he had earned some of Bibi Dong's trust, so leaving Spirit Hall would not be difficult.

He put his robe back on, packed only one or two important belongings, took out a token, and headed outside.

As expected, the people of Spirit Hall did not stop him. The guards merely asked a couple of perfunctory questions before letting him leave.

The people of Spirit Hall knew perfectly well that a Soul Ancestor like Li Tianyuan, barely above Level 40, could not stir up any waves.

After stepping out of Spirit Hall, Li Tianyuan took a deep breath, remaining cautious.

It was still too early to celebrate. He needed to get far away from Spirit Hall and find somewhere secluded.

"Host, you have left Spirit Hall. Congratulations on receiving the reward of Level 90 Douluo cultivation. Would you like to use it now?"

His system buddy's voice rang out in Li Tianyuan's mind.

"No, not yet. There are quite a few Titled Douluos in Spirit Hall. If I gain that power now, won't I expose myself?"

"Those old bastards might all gang up on me!"

Li Tianyuan silently shook his head.

Once his aura was exposed, not only that madwoman Bibi Dong but also the old fellows in the Worship Hall would be alerted. Leaving this place would become difficult then.

"Rest assured, Host. Although there's a Level 99 old fellow in Spirit Hall, your system buddy guarantees that no one will discover you. Even the deities of this world will have trouble detecting you!"

His system buddy sounded rather smug.

"Seriously, buddy?"

Li Tianyuan was a little skeptical.

"Absolutely. Rest assured, Host."

His system buddy answered.

"All right."

"But I still need to find somewhere secluded."

Although Li Tianyuan knew how powerful his system buddy was, he could not simply advance to Titled Douluo right in the street.

Soon, he entered a secret room he had bought in Spirit City.

Once inside, he immediately said, "System buddy, make me a Douluo right now!"

There was no time to lose. He could not afford to waste any.

Once that woman Bibi Dong caught on, he would be in trouble.

"Please relax, Host. I will now grant you Level 90 Douluo cultivation."

Hearing the system's prompt, Li Tianyuan immediately sat cross-legged and silently waited for that cultivation.

Buzz!

A peculiar vibration rang out.

Before Li Tianyuan could react, he passed out.

Twenty minutes later, he awoke.

A mighty power awakened with him.

Li Tianyuan felt the surging Soul Power within his body—a completely new transformation.

"This... is the power of a Douluo!"

Li Tianyuan gave his body a shake and released his Soul Power. His Martial Soul, the Heavenly Mystery Disc, appeared above his head.

The Heavenly Mystery Disc spun ceaselessly, its eight trigrams, Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, and Yin-Yang Lines all revolving, radiating an uncanny, unfathomable power.

Almost simultaneously, eight Soul Rings appeared around him.

One yellow, two purple, three black, and two red!

"There are actually two hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings!"

Li Tianyuan was utterly astonished.

His system buddy was ridiculously badass. Everything it gave him was the real deal.

"Surprised? The system has also custom-made special Soul Skills for you."

"First Soul Skill: Self-Cultivation."

"Second Soul Skill: Soul Strengthening."

"Third Soul Skill: Divination."

"Fourth Soul Skill: Fate Alteration."

"Fifth Soul Skill: Heaven's Punishment."

"Sixth Soul Skill: Yin-Yang Reversal."

"Seventh Soul Skill: Martial Soul Avatar—Temporal Concealment."

"Eighth Soul Skill: Heavenly Mystery Scrying."

After learning what his Soul Skills were, Li Tianyuan looked even more astounded.

If the first four Soul Skills could be called ordinary, the ones after them were downright badass.

Yin-Yang Reversal, Heavenly Mystery Scrying...

If he actually unleashed them, they would definitely give quite a few Douluos a headache.

He still needed to examine exactly how to use these Soul Skills.

"Host, are you satisfied?"

"Satisfied. Extremely satisfied!"

How could Li Tianyuan possibly be dissatisfied?

"By the way, your system buddy has detected another special Martial Soul in you. It was concealed before, but it can no longer remain hidden. Please inspect it, Host."

"What? Another Martial Soul?!"

"I have twin Martial Souls!"

Astonished once again, Li Tianyuan silently circulated his Soul Power. Suddenly, an utterly terrifying spear appeared in his hand.

The spear radiated an extremely ferocious aura of slaughter, wreathed in crimson light.

Its blade gleamed with an even more piercing chill.

"Host, I never expected this Martial Soul of yours to be so powerful. The God-Slaying Spear—a divine weapon said to be capable of slaying deities!"

His system buddy informed him.

"The God-Slaying Spear!"

Hearing the name, Li Tianyuan's eyes filled with disbelief.

This Martial Soul looked overwhelmingly powerful. It could actually be used to slay deities. No wonder it had remained hidden before, refusing to appear.

Presumably, the moment it appeared, a Deity might detect him and erase him from existence.

Quite a few deities probably could not tolerate such a Martial Soul.

Things were different now. He had his system buddy, as well as special Soul Skills. Combined with the God-Slaying Spear, they might not make him invincible, but dealing with Titled Douluos below Level 95 should at least be no problem.

"Host, you cannot unleash this Martial Soul's full power yet, but you can use it together with Temporal Concealment. That will allow you to evade the deities' detection within a certain range."

His system buddy reminded him again.

"Understood. This Martial Soul is too powerful. Unless I have absolutely no choice, I won't use it lightly. I'll be cautious."

Li Tianyuan knew full well that he might still have a chance of surviving an encounter with a Level 99 Limit Douluo, but if he truly drew a Deity's attention, that would be another matter.

He still needed to keep a low profile and continue growing stronger.

"All right, Host. Take your time exploring the changes in yourself. I won't disturb you any further."

After saying that, his system buddy fell silent.

Hearing this, Li Tianyuan put away the God-Slaying Spear and remained seated cross-legged, deciding to study the abilities of his eight Soul Skills first.

Then he would leave Spirit City.
