Douluo: Starting from the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon

Chapter 86 Harvest Time
The Nine-bend Vine Dragon carried Lin Rong and the old butler to the ground and walked to the edge of the deep pit.

In the deep pit, a piece of perfectly intact soul bone peeled off from Tang Xiao’s left arm and floated in front of Lin Rong.

An extremely surging aura emanated from this soul bone.

This overbearing energy wave spread in all directions, triggering the dragon soul to automatically protect its master. The illusory blue real dragon surrounded Lin Rong, defending him against the pressure of this energy.

"It is worthy of being one of the three inherited soul bones that Tang Chen left for his own sect. It is actually more than 70,000 years old."

Lin Rong stretched out his hand and held the soul bone in his hand, truly feeling the extremely explosive energy contained in the soul bone.

"The power contained in the soul bone is so violent, it is very suitable for those soul masters who take the route of being extremely strong and fierce."

"Grandpa Yu, here you go." Lin Rong handed the soul bone in his hand to the old butler and said:

"Although the properties of this soul bone are not compatible with you, its quality and age can fully make up for it."

"Thank you, young master."

After hearing this, the old butler did not refuse. He took out a wooden box, put the soul bone in it, and then put it into the soul guide.

The hundred thousand year old soul bone of the ten thousand year old ninth grade ginseng king had life attributes that matched the young master's martial soul, but its life form was that of a phoenix instead of a real dragon. For this reason, the young master gave it to him if he wanted.

This left arm bone is only a little over 70,000 years old, which is nothing compared to the 100,000-year-old soul bone.

"Grandpa Yu, what do you think of Tang Xiao's strength?"

After the old butler collected the soul bone, he heard the young master's question and recalled the fight with Tang Xiao just now. After thinking for a while, he replied:
"Very strong!"

"Both are level 96 Title Douluo. Under normal circumstances, Tang Xiao and this old slave should be equally strong."

"However, Haotian Jiujue can be used as a regular method in Tang Xiao's hands. He uses it to perfection, and each move contains great power."

"If it weren't for your innate domain, young master, when we fought just now, I would have increased my overall attributes by 20%, while weakening Tang Xiao's overall attributes by 20%."

"As one gains strength while the other loses strength, this old slave can retain some strength and suppress Tang Xiao head-on in the battle."

Lin Rong took the soul guide that Jiuqu Tenglong had searched from Titan and Tang Xiao, and he agreed with the old butler's words in his heart.

Tang Xiao's attainments in the Nine Wonders of Haotian are indeed extraordinary.

After all, in the original novel, Tang Xiao practiced the Nine Secrets of Haotian to the point of mastery, and combined the nine secrets into one to create the tenth secret, the "Kill Secret".

To be honest, Tang Xiao’s talent is not bad, and he can even be considered an extremely talented person among the natives.

However, his brilliance was completely overshadowed by his more outstanding younger brother.

In addition, Tang Xiao's combat performance is far inferior to that of his younger brother Tang Hao.

This has led to the situation that when people mention the Haotian Sect, the first person that comes to mind is Haotian Douluo Tang Hao, and they almost automatically ignore the fact that there is also a figure like Xiaotian Douluo in the Haotian Sect.

"In the previous fight, Tang Xiao did not use the 'Killing Technique'. It should be that he has not yet created it."

"However, Tang Xiao should have left some tips on this in his soul guide. Let's look for it."

Thinking this in his mind, Lin Rong released his mental power to search for things like experience manuals in the soul guide left by Tang Xiao.

There weren't many things in the soul guide. Apart from some clothes and daily necessities, the rest of the stuff was pitifully small and could be seen clearly.

Soon, Lin Rong made a discovery and took out a slightly thick booklet from the soul guide.

"This should be it."

As he spoke, Lin Rong opened the booklet and took a quick look through it.

I was surprised to find that this booklet, in addition to recording the practice experience of the Nine Secrets of Haotian.

All other cultivation experiences related to the Clear Sky Hammer are recorded in this booklet, even the cultivation experience of the Great Sumeru Hammer is included.

"Great stuff!" "Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles."

"With this booklet, we can know the flaws and weaknesses of the Clear Sky Hammer Technique. Its value is inestimable."

"However, apart from this booklet, there is nothing valuable in Tang Xiao's soul guide. He doesn't even have a few gold soul coins. He is really poor!"

Lin Rong complained in his heart and looked at another soul guide floating nearby.

Release your mental power and probe into it.

I saw that there were many things neatly stacked in the storage space:

More than a dozen boxes of cash in gold, silver and bronze soul coins, and a full box of gold soul coin cards with a face value of at least ten thousand.

A box of scroll drawings contained all kinds of hidden weapons of the Tang Sect, big and small. The richness of the variety surprised Lin Rong.

A complete set of assembled hidden weapons. Except for a few top-ranked mechanical hidden weapons, the rest of the hidden weapons have an assembled finished product.

A large variety of metals, both wrought and unwrought.

There were a lot of bottles and jars, which looked like they contained all kinds of poisons.

There are three booklets, one on the cultivation experience of the powerful gorilla's martial spirit, one on the blacksmith's forging experience, and one on the cultivation secret book called "Iron Forging Hands".

The rest of the things in the soul guide are just some miscellaneous items, not worth mentioning.

"Yes, there are quite a few valuable things."

Lin Rong was very satisfied with the contents of the Titan Soul Guide.

"Although Titan's blacksmith's forging experience is not as good as Lou Gao's, it's not much different."

"Add to that the unique palm technique of the Li clan, 'Iron Forging Hands', and we will be able to train a group of blacksmiths with excellent forging skills."

"These hidden weapon drawings are not the castrated versions that Tang San gave Ning Fengzhi in the original novel. Instead, they are complete versions that record in detail how to assemble the hidden weapons."

"With the finished hidden weapons in the soul guide as templates, plus these complete hidden weapon drawings, we can break Tang San's monopoly on Tang Sect's hidden weapons."

"It's because Tang San relied too much on the Power Clan in forging hidden weapons, and handed over the entire forging and assembly process of the Tang Sect's hidden weapons to the Power Clan. Otherwise, Tai Tan wouldn't have the blueprints of all the Tang Sect's mechanical hidden weapons."

Among the things in the Titan soul guide, Lin Rong was only interested in these.

Other things, such as money.

Although the box of gold soul coin cards was worth a lot, it was not even the icing on the cake for a hereditary duke like the Lin family who had been passed down for a long time.

As for the matching poisons for the Tang Sect's mechanical hidden weapons in the bottles and jars in the soul guides, after he subdues the Po Yi clan, he will not only not be short of them, but he can also concoct better ones.

As for those metals, they are not rare types and can be bought with money.

Finally, there is the book on the cultivation experience of the powerful gorilla's martial spirit, which is of no value at all.

Because, in his mind, the Power Clan was not a threat at all, not to mention that the Titans were dead now.

It's nothing like the Haotian Sect. Even if Tang Chen fell, Tang Hao was seriously injured, and Tang Xiao was dead, there would still be at least five Titled Douluo in the future.

This also made Lin Rong speechless.

"It's true. The bottleneck between level 89 and level 90 is something that others cannot break through even if they spend their entire lives on it."

"For example, the leader of the Elephant Armor Sect, Hu Yanzhen, was only able to break through to level 90 with the help of the Spirit Hall."

"As a result, this realm barrier seemed to be non-existent for the five elders of Haotian Sect. They broke through the realm of Titled Douluo in bulk, one after another, and even broke through five of them."
