Douluo Continent: From Internal Martial Arts to the Law of Heaven and Earth

Glancing at the children in front of him who looked fearful, Su Yuntao was naturally unaware that one of the "fake children" was wary of him. After his martial spirit was activated, he raised his claw and pointed at the chubby boy on the far left: "You, come here."

It was a chubby little boy whose legs were still trembling with fear as he walked over, but intimidated by the terrifying aura of Su Yuntao, he could only shakily move to the center of the six-pointed star array.

Once the chubby boy had settled firmly, Su Yuntao gave him a deep, instructing voice: "Stand in the center of the six-pointed star array, empty your mind, calm your senses, and summon your martial spirit."

Su Yuntao transformed into an emotionless awakening machine, beginning to guide the children to awaken one by one.

Each time the pitch-black Awakening Stone emitted a glimmer of golden light, he would feel a surge of anticipation. However, the crystal ball used to test his soul power remained completely dark, leaving Su Yuntao repeatedly disappointed.

"Martial Soul: Scythe, Innate Soul Power Level Zero, Useless Martial Soul."

"The martial soul is Blue Silver Grass, with innate soul power at level zero, making it a useless martial soul."

"Martial Soul: Hoe; Innate Soul Power: Level Zero; Useless Martial Soul."

Su Yuntao's voice was cold and devoid of any emotion.

Many children, upon learning that they had not awakened their innate soul power, had already filled their eyes with tears, but due to the terrifying pressure emanating from Su Yuntao, the tears could only well up in their eyes.

Soon it was Tang San's turn at the end of the line. Dense and dazzling golden light burst forth from the Awakening Stone, surging into the boy's body in the six-pointed star array like a golden torrent.

Seeing the Awakening Stone emit such a rich golden light, Su Yuntao's eyes lit up, and he thought to himself: Could it be that a powerful top-grade martial soul is about to be awakened? He clearly remembered that when he awakened Tang Shan's martial soul, the Awakening Stone also emitted such a rich golden light.

Tang San, who had reached the peak of the first level of the Xuan Tian Gong, carefully sensed the subtle changes within his body. A certain power hidden deep within his bloodline quietly revived. He slowly raised his right hand, and a pale blue grass quietly appeared in his palm, with faint golden veins between the leaves, shimmering with a soft glow.

Chapter 262 Tang Hao's Scheme, A Special Gold-Level Second Awakening

At the same time, Tang San felt as if something was about to emerge in his left hand. He subconsciously clenched his left fist and forcibly pulled back the dark light.

Having continuously awakened his martial soul, Su Yuntao, whose mental energy was greatly depleted, obviously did not notice Tang San's little trick. He merely glanced at the small grass in the other's hand, lowered his head, and casually wrote in his notebook: "Useless martial soul, Blue Silver Grass."

After finishing his notes, he began packing his things, preparing to leave.

"Uncle, I haven't tested my soul power yet."

Tang San hesitated for a moment, then spoke calmly.

Su Yuntao, who was packing his things, froze. What did that brat call him? Uncle? He's only twenty-four years old, okay?

He glanced at Tang San speechlessly, too lazy to argue with him, and tossed the crystal ball to him: "Test it yourself."

The next moment, a dazzling golden light instantly filled the entire crystal ball, causing Su Yuntao's eyes to widen involuntarily.

"Innate full soul power? This... how is this possible?"

Su Yuntao stammered, clearly doubting what he was seeing.

"Uncle, here you go."

Tang San obediently returned the crystal ball to Su Yuntao, who took it somewhat blankly and only came to his senses after a long while.

"What a pity, he was born with full soul power, but it's a useless martial soul."

Su Yuntao blurted out the words, feeling as if he had forgotten something, but he didn't think much of it. He gave Tang San a certificate that was sufficient for him to go to the Soul Master Academy in Notting City to cultivate, and after answering a few questions from Tang San about Soul Master cultivation, he yawned and walked out.

After dealing with the villagers outside, Su Yuntao embarked on his journey back to Nottingham City.

"I feel like I've forgotten something?"

As Su Yuntao walked, he recalled the feeling that he had missed some important information. After walking a short distance, he suddenly slapped his forehead: "Oh dear, how could I forget? Didn't my little brother's theory say that a Blue Silver Grass with innate full soul power might be the Blue Silver Emperor? How did I say it was a useless martial soul?"

He was just about to go back and find Tang San to ask if he was willing to join the Heaven Dou Empire. As for joining the Spirit Hall, why would a subordinate of the Heaven Dou Crown Prince help the Spirit Hall recruit talent?

However, just as he turned, a whooshing sound came from the dense forest beside the path. A dark figure, as elusive as a ghost, darted swiftly through the trees. Two pale yellow spirit rings rhythmically moved up and down on his body, and the venomous and ferocious aura emanating from him completely revealed his identity as an evil spirit master.

"You brat, die!"

The shadowy figure saw a young man standing in the middle of the road. Having lost a lot of blood, he needed to replenish it. Without hesitation, the shadowy figure stretched out its sinister claws and grabbed at Su Yuntao.

Here we go again!

Faced with this sudden attack, the shadowy figure had already anticipated Su Yuntao's possible reaction—it could be despair, resentment, or pleading. But he never expected that Su Yuntao's face would show a numb expression that he was already used to.

hum!

The spirit rings appeared, the martial spirit instantly possessed the body, the first two spirit skills shone brightly at the same time, and the deep fusion state of the martial spirit was instantly activated.

With a simple dodge, he easily avoided a fatal blow, then retaliated with his wolf claws, aiming for the opponent's neck.

At the same time, figures clad in white armor emerged from the dense forest. Their eyes lit up when they saw Su Yuntao dressed in the Spirit Hall's attire and fighting with an evil spirit master.

"Thanks, brother. We're from the Demon Hunters. This is the evil spirit master who's been running around Notting City lately. We just didn't expect him to have broken through to the second ring."

As the words were spoken, beams of holy light, each with its own tracking function, enveloped the evil soul master.

"Then let's take care of him together."

Su Yuntao answered loudly, and soon the battlefield shifted again, returning to the depths of the dense forest.

As for Tang San's Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul, Su Yuntao had long forgotten about it.

……

"Little San, you must use the hammer in your left hand to protect the grass in your right hand."

Meeting his father's unprecedentedly intense gaze, Tang San nodded heavily.

Tang Hao took a deep breath, stood up, walked to the window, and gazed at the vast night. His eyes flickered with uncertainty for a moment, before finally revealing a ruthless glint: "The Spirit Hall, huh? I, Tang Hao, will forge a weapon of revenge and utterly destroy you. As for whether he's my son or not, does that matter? As long as I can get my revenge, what harm is there in acknowledging him as my son!"

……

The gears of fate begin to turn, waves begin to rise, and the continent is about to turn a new page and enter a brand new era.

Sun rises and moon sets, moon sets and sun rises; in the blink of an eye, three days have passed.

The whale gelatin, which was like a small sun, gradually became exhausted, and wisps of heat flowed through the body before completely merging with it.

As the last trace of medicinal power dissipated, the rapidly circulating Qi and blood gradually returned to their normal speed, and the ever-flowing soul power also returned to the dantian.

hum!

A dazzling golden light suddenly appeared behind Tang Shan. It was a majestic phantom, entirely golden with an indistinct expression, surrounded by a thick golden light. It carried a pressure originating from the source of his bloodline and crashed directly into Tang Shan's body, causing him to undergo another thorough transformation.

Skin, flesh, tendons, bones, internal organs, viscera, marrow, blood...

From the major functional systems of his body down to every tiny cell, everything underwent a transformative leap and evolution under the baptism of golden light. An invisible yet extremely oppressive aura spread wildly outwards from Tang Shan's body, and a faint golden halo slowly seeped from his skin. Tang Shan, sitting cross-legged in meditation, resembled a perfectly sculpted golden statue, with a majestic outline and awe-inspiring demeanor.

"Is this a Gold-level second awakening?"

As he felt Tang Shan undergo another rapid transformation, a look of solemnity and shock flashed in Golden Crocodile Douluo's eyes. The feeling of such rapid transformation was truly beyond his expectations.

He anticipated that the Gold-level second awakening might be very strong, but he never expected it to be so terrifyingly powerful. The soaring aura was probably enough to easily contend with a weak Soul Douluo who hadn't yet awakened their Martial Soul True Body. If he obtained a Soul Ring and received the blessing of a legendary Soul Beast, he might be able to directly defeat a Soul Douluo who hadn't yet awakened their Martial Soul True Body.

Sensing the unusual activity in Tangshan, Gu Yue and Dugu Yan, who usually stayed in the courtyard except for their usual rest, subconsciously raised their heads and stared intently at Tangshan, clearly understanding that Tangshan's cultivation should be coming to an end.

About half an hour later, Tang Shan's transformation gradually stopped, and the faint golden halo that had appeared on his body was also drawn back into his body.

call!

Opening his eyes, Tang Shan was greeted by two beautiful eyes. He instinctively leaned back and saw Gu Yue and Dugu Yan standing around him, their beautiful eyes fixed on him.

"what happened?"

Tang Shan noticed the two men scrutinizing him so closely and instinctively asked a question.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to see what changes you've undergone after your second awakening at the Gold level," Gu Yue replied softly, a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

"What are the effects of a Gold-level Second Awakening?"

Golden Crocodile Douluo stepped forward and asked Tang Shan.

"The effect is very strong, it can amplify all attributes and increase the effect of all soul skills by 300%. The only drawback is that it will damage the source after use."

Tang Shan was clearly in a good mood and answered loudly.

"It damages the very essence of life. It's so serious. It doesn't even feel as good as the previous Silver-level Second Awakening."

Upon hearing the specific effects of the Gold-level Second Awakening, Golden Crocodile Douluo couldn't help but frown. The 300% increase in all attributes, including soul skill effects, was indeed powerful, but the side effect of damaging one's life essence was a bit too much.

"It's alright. Although it damages the life essence, the loss from using it once isn't significant. Besides, I can switch between Gold-level and Silver-level awakening."

As Tang Shan finished speaking, a golden figure similar in size to him appeared behind him. With a thought, the golden figure turned back to its previous silver-white color.

Compared to the extreme second awakening of the Body Sect's Gold level in the second era of Dou Er, Tang Shan's second awakening was still under his control. Whether he unleashed the power of the Silver level or the Gold level, it was all under his control.

It's important to know that in the Douluo Continent II era, once a Gold-level cultivator awakens, they cannot regress to the Silver-level.

Tang Shan estimated that the reason he was so special was probably because his own awakening method was different from that of the Body Sect.

After all, he was talking about a gradual and subtle development that would be completed naturally, rather than the desperate and short-sighted approach of the Body Sect.

Golden Crocodile Douluo: "That's good. Otherwise, even if the damage is small, excessive use would cause irreparable harm to the body and even have a significant impact on future cultivation."

"Tangshan, have you finished absorbing it?"

Just then, Xue Qinghe hurriedly walked in from outside and looked at Tang Shan, who was talking to Golden Crocodile Douluo.

"Yes, Your Highness, as expected, it has achieved a second awakening at the Gold level."

A complex look flashed in Xue Qinghe's eyes, but his face remained as gentle as ever: "It's good that you've awakened. Be careful when you try to acquire a soul ring. If you can't absorb it, just give up and don't force it."

Xue Qinghe gave earnest instructions, his tone filled with genuine concern.

"Your Highness, rest assured, I am not the kind of person who is greedy for credit and acts rashly."

Tang Shan patted his chest and made a sincere guarantee, but then, remembering his plans after the breakthrough, his expression became slightly serious.

"Your Highness, after we returned from acquiring the spirit ring, there's something I'd like to discuss with you."

Xue Qinghe looked puzzled, but didn't ask any further questions. He simply nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

A golden light flashed in Golden Crocodile Douluo's eyes as he recalled his discussion with Tang Shan after returning from hunting the Golden Behemoth, and he sighed silently.

……

The night was as dark as ink, obscuring all the starlight. Only the bright moon hung in the inky sky, its clear moonlight pouring down like water, casting a soft veil of light over the tranquil night.

The evening breeze, carrying the faint fragrance of grass and trees in the corner of the courtyard, gently swept by silently.

Tang Shan and Gu Yue sat facing each other without exchanging a word, yet the atmosphere was surprisingly harmonious. Both of them thoroughly enjoyed the quiet moment of sitting opposite each other in silence. The moonlight, carried by the evening breeze, gently covered their shoulders, and a sense of tacit understanding washed over them, as if time had slowed down at that moment.

Chapter 263 Transformation, Star Luo Incident

"Gu Yue, when do we set off?"

Tangshan broke the silence first, looking at the girl opposite him.

The silvery moonlight gently bathed the girl's profile, gilding her black hair and eyes with a lustrous silver glow. Her already ethereal and otherworldly temperament was further enhanced by a touch of holy and aloof divinity. Her brows and eyes, immersed in the moonlight, became even more captivating and otherworldly.
