Douluo: Star Crown Glory

Chapter 20: Mr. Teng's Shock
"Thank you all for saving my life. This favor will be remembered by my Ling family."

The daughter of the master of the house is qualified to say this.

But Xu Mingxi didn't do that for this. He simply didn't want to see someone he knew die in the mouth of a soul beast.

"You're welcome. Do you want to come out with us?"

"Okay, thank you very much."

Although Ling Yilan has not yet obtained the fourth soul ring, Grandma Shuanglan has been seriously injured, so she can only return to her family first.

It was good enough that Xu Mingxi saved her, she didn't dare ask him to help her hunt for spirit rings again.

Contra, there are only two of them in the entire Ling family, and now they appear as Xu Mingxi's bodyguards.

As Ling Yilan hurried on her way, she looked at Xu Mingxi in front of her and gave up her unrealistic fantasies.

Xu Mingxi is from a different world from me.

After letting go of her fantasy, Ling Yilan found it much easier to get along with Xu Mingxi. She introduced him to many interesting things on the continent, as well as many powerful soul masters.

For example, Bibi Dong, the new disciple of the Spirit Hall's Angel Soul Douluo Qianxunji, has begun to emerge on the mainland.

Thinking of this originally normal woman who was driven crazy by Qianxunji, Xu Mingxi felt a headache.

If the Spirit Hall had trained her well and Qianxunji hadn't caused trouble, the Spirit Hall would have unified the continent before Tang San even grew up.
Xu Mingxi felt that Bibi Dong was the most talented person in Douluo Continent, but it was a pity that she was not clear-headed enough to fall in love with a piece of trash.

Forget it, let’s think about these things later. Anyway, Bibi Dong is going to persecute the Spirit Hall and the three upper sects.

"Miss Ling, I'll go back first."

"Okay, my Ling family is in Tianbing City, you are welcome to visit us anytime."

Xu Mingxi said goodbye to Ling Yilan and quickly rushed to the sect.

I hadn’t noticed much in the Far North before, but I didn’t expect that after just over ten days, the disputes on the continent would become more and more intense.

Zhenbei Pass, the front line in the fight against the soul beasts from the Far North, seems to be filled with the smell of gunpowder.

The three of them rushed back to the sect and heard some news from the sect master.

Emperor Xue Yin of the Tiandou Empire passed away, and Xue Ye ascended the throne, taking charge of the entire Tiandou Empire.

Qian Xunji of the Spirit Hall broke through to become a Titled Douluo and officially succeeded to the position of Pope.

Qian Xunji is not like Qian Daoliu. He is ambitious and wants the Spirit Hall to unify the Douluo Continent.

Regardless of the possibility that Tang Chen might still be alive, they directly began to suppress the power of the top three sects.

Because of Tang Chen's disappearance and fear of Qian Daoliu's strength, the three upper sects had no choice but to give in everywhere, and their sphere of influence continued to shrink.

The sect leader also told the three people a piece of news that shocked Xu Mingxi.

Ning Tiansheng, the leader of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and the only Titled Douluo of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, died unexpectedly when he was helping a guest official obtain the eighth soul ring.

Whether it was an accident or not, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect was in a situation where it could be destroyed at any time.

At this time, Ning Fengzhi, who had just celebrated his 40th birthday, took the position of sect leader.

He recruited two Titled Douluo, Jian Gu, from nowhere and completely stabilized the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.

But because of this incident, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect completely broke off relations with the Spirit Hall, and its cooperation with the Heaven Dou Empire became increasingly close.

Since then, faces familiar to Xu Mingxi have gradually appeared on the big stage of Douluo Continent.

"Mingxi, is it safe to obtain the fourth spirit ring this time?"

“Master, my soul skill this time is indeed Star Guardian, but grandpa and the second elder said that it is different from the usual Star Guardian of the tribesmen.” As he spoke, Xu Mingxi directly lit up his martial soul, and the fourth soul ring lit up. The master saw a silver thread among the bright starlight at a glance.

However, he had never seen such a situation before, and it was not recorded in the notes of the Star Ancestor.

"Mingxi, go back first. I'll check the ancient books and let you know if there's any news."

The sect leader had said so much, and Xu Mingxi was not the kind of person who didn't understand what others were saying. He obediently returned home and accepted the warmest welcome from his parents and friends.

Xu Mingxi originally thought that the matter had just passed, but who would have thought that when he was practicing under the star tree the next day, the two old seniors actually gave him a big surprise.

Just as Xu Mingxi activated his first soul skill as usual, intending to artificially create a simulated training field with more intense starlight.

Who would have thought that as soon as the first soul skill was released, the Star Tree and the Star-Seeking Vine would actually wake up directly from their dormant state.

An old man's face appeared on the trunk of the Star Tree, and the thick body of the Star-Seeking Vine hung down from the dense crown.

Just now, they felt an unprecedented throbbing in their blood.

"Xingguanzong's boy, what on earth did you just do?"

Xu Mingxi was already frightened by the old tree and the old vine, and when he heard this, he immediately became confused.

"I didn't do anything. I just used my first soul skill as usual, Star Summoning. You know what I mean."

"No, that's not right, release it again."

Old Teng came straight in front of Xu Mingxi and stared at him intently, as if he had seen a peerless treasure.

Xu Mingguang and his son and the two elders who were practicing here were also attracted and surrounded Xu Mingxi.

I really don’t know what happened. Xu Mingxi wanted to cry but had no tears. He could only follow Master Teng’s instructions and use his first soul skill again.

"Yes, that's it."

Mr. Teng's exclamation attracted everyone's attention. It was the first time they saw him so excited.

I saw the body of the old vine hanging on the star tree constantly stretching, rushing straight towards the starlight that was leading down. Even the old tree stretched its body, and the trunk that had remained unchanged for hundreds of years began to grow.

This scene was truly shocking, and some elders had already gone to inform the sect master and several other elders.

Suddenly, Mr. Teng seemed to have grabbed something from the starlight, and he pulled it back violently, landing directly in front of Xu Mingxi.

Xu Mingxi looked closely and saw that there was a ray of silver-white light on Master Teng's body.

"Master Teng, this is."

"I am not mistaken, this is not the ordinary moonlight, but the legendary moonlight essence.

For us plant soul beasts, especially our Star-Seeking Vine and Star Tree clan, it is a treasure that can help us grow and even evolve."

Moonlight Essence?

Xu Mingxi felt that its color was indeed very similar to the moonlight that appeared in his fourth soul skill.

However, isn’t this his first soul skill? Could it be that after absorbing the Moon-Gazing Toad’s soul ring, his martial soul has changed?
Xu Mingxi suddenly had a crazy idea, and once this idea was born, he could no longer stop it.

The Star Crown is already the top martial soul in the world. If it evolves further, it will become a god-level martial soul.

Moreover, the starlight and the moonlight reminded Xu Mingxi of the legendary three lights of the sun, moon and stars in his previous life.

Could it be possible that I could really become a god?
