Douluo Continent: Dragon's Journey Across the World

Just then, Qian Renxue and the six elders quickly arrived at Qian Daoliu's side. Qian Renxue and Golden Crocodile Douluo stood on either side of Qian Daoliu, seemingly very concerned about his injuries.

The seven men looked at Yang Ping'an with eyes full of anger. In their eyes, the invincible Qian Daoliu had actually been defeated by Yang Ping'an, and even after Qian Daoliu used the Angelic Holy Sword.

Qian Renxue, in particular, seemed to be filled with anger: "Yang Ping'an, you just wait, I will avenge my grandfather's defeat today sooner or later."

Yang Ping'an ignored Qian Renxue and instead looked at Qian Daoliu beside him: "Senior, let me give you a piece of advice. You'd better educate your granddaughter properly. Not everyone in this world is as easy to talk to as I am. Your granddaughter doesn't seem to understand the rules of the Soul Master world."

Qian Daoliu glanced at Qian Renxue meaningfully. His granddaughter was indeed too proud and too blindly confident, and she might really cause trouble in the future.

Qian Renxue seemed even angrier: "What do you know, you brat? This is my Martial Soul City."

Before Qian Renxue could say anything more, Yang Ping'an frowned, and the entire sky seemed to tremble. It was as if an invisible force was gripping Qian Renxue's neck tightly, as if it could tear her apart at any moment.

Qian Daoliu coughed slightly, seemingly shattering Yang Ping'an's pressure on Qian Renxue: "Yang Ping'an, my granddaughter has been spoiled since she was a child, and she has been lurking in Tiandou City for many years, so she has indeed lacked some discipline. Please don't mind."

Qian Renxue seemed a little unwilling to accept that her grandfather also said the same thing: "Grandpa, why are you siding with an outsider? Especially since this guy swindled a lot of things from me."

Yang Ping'an spoke calmly: "Young Miss, let me tell you two rules of the Soul Master world. First, the Soul Master world always respects the strong. Right now, I am the strongest here. Even if I wanted to kill you, do you think Qian Daoliu, the six elders, or even Bibi Dong could stop me?"

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue's face darkened, while the six elders beside her seemed very worried that Yang Ping'an would attack Qian Renxue.

Yang Ping'an continued, "The second rule of the Soul Master world is that victory or defeat is not that important; life and death are the most important. Losing one or two matches is not a big deal if you cannot kill your opponent. But if you have the opportunity to kill your opponent, I think Senior Qian Daoliu, as the adjudicator elder of the Spirit Hall, should know more about it."

After saying that, Yang Ping'an transformed into a figure and left, leaving everyone present looking at each other in bewilderment.

The Tribunal Elders are special officers of the Spirit Hall, tasked with killing enemies, and their hands are stained with blood. Qian Daoliu, on the other hand, has been living in seclusion in Spirit City since his defeat by Tang Chen, which has made people forget his identity.

Looking at Qian Renxue's unwilling face, Qian Daoliu couldn't help but sigh: "Xiaoxue, you must remember these two rules that Yang Ping'an said. These are the ironclad rules of the Soul Master world. Don't provoke Yang Ping'an again in the future."

Qian Renxue was a little puzzled: "Grandpa, why are you also siding with Yang Ping'an? With my talent, it's only a matter of time before I can beat him."

Qian Daoliu roared, "Xue'er, that's enough! You're not a child anymore. You should start to understand the real world of Soul Masters. A genius is just a genius, not necessarily a strong one. There are far too many geniuses who have fallen in this world."

"If you continue to act so recklessly, even if you become a god, you will only be a weak god. Not to mention that you have not yet become a god, so you have no right to look down on the people of the world."

This seemed to be the first time Qian Daoliu had ever lost his temper with Qian Renxue, and even the first time in nearly fifty years that Qian Daoliu had been angry. The six elders on the side quickly stepped forward to comfort him, while Bibi Dong, who was in the distance, couldn't help but shake her head.

After returning to Chrysanthemum Douluo's home, Yang Ping'an began to carefully examine the wound on his hand.

This wound looks very unusual. There seems to be some kind of flame and purifying energy deep inside, which seems to be preventing the wound from healing. In particular, this energy seems to be above the level of Douluo Continent, and should be divine power.

Yang Ping'an had always longed for divine power, and had even converted more than 90% of his soul power into divine power, but it was still insufficient compared to the purest divine power of the Angelic Holy Sword.

Yang Ping'an carefully considered the battle just now, especially when Qian Daoliu took out the Angelic Holy Sword. It seemed that his Golden Dragon Sword and the Angelic Holy Sword were fundamentally different, as if it was a difference in energy level.

Yang Ping'an's Golden Dragon Sword is no less powerful than the Angelic Holy Sword in terms of weight and sharpness. The only difference is probably the energy attribute and level. It seems that the only way to truly evolve the Golden Dragon Sword into a divine weapon is for him to become a god.

Yang Ping'an poured all his spiritual power into his wound, carefully sensing the difference between divine power and soul power. Although both are forms of energy, divine power seemed to be more continuous, and pure divine power was also evolved from soul power.

At that moment, Yang Ping'an's entire body turned black, and he even exuded a black aura, including the dark and death attributes on his body.

Under the influence of the dark and death attributes, multiple energies seemed to be colliding at the wound. However, as time went on, the residual aura of the Angelic Holy Sword gradually dissipated and eventually vanished into nothingness, while Yang Ping'an's wound healed rapidly.

Yang Ping'an couldn't help but recall a saying: God is just an evolution of Soul Master, and divine power is just an evolution of Soul Power. It just requires a massive amount of Soul Power to evolve the Soul Power of the body into divine power. This seems to be a term from his previous life, called "quantitative change leads to qualitative change." Perhaps the difference between gods and humans is also this kind of difference.

In particular, there is another issue: after a Soul Master becomes a god, he can bring people into the God Realm. In the original story, Tang San brought his parents Tang Hao and the Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin into the God Realm.

Theoretically speaking, it was impossible for Tang Hao to cultivate to level 100, and it was even more impossible for Blue Silver Emperor A Yin to cultivate to the level of a million years. However, they became gods after entering the God Realm. There may be other secrets behind this, the most likely of which is that quantitative change led to qualitative change.

After thinking for a whole day, Yang Ping'an seemed to have gained some insight before leaving his room. Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo seemed to have been waiting for Yang Ping'an in the living room, or perhaps he knew that Yang Ping'an was injured and had been guarding him outside, after all, this was Wuhun City.

Seeing that Yang Ping'an was unharmed, Chrysanthemum Douluo was somewhat relieved: "Ping'an, how are your injuries? The High Priest used the Angelic Holy Sword this time, so the injury on your hand will probably be difficult to heal."

Yang Ping'an smiled calmly: "Thank you for your concern, Master. My injury is healed. I've been mainly studying the injury of the Angelic Holy Sword for so long."

"By the way, Master, aren't you concerned about what's happening at the front? Are you really just letting Tang Chen and Tang San run wild like this?"

Ghost Douluo nodded: "It's not that I don't care, but I guess it'll be soon. Old Chrysanthemum and I will be going to the front lines again soon."

Yang Ping'an thought for a moment and then took out the Titan Giant Ape torso soul bone again: "Master and Uncle, I already have a torso soul bone. I really have no use for this soul bone. You can take it and absorb it. Battlefield soul skill 'No Eyes' might come in handy at a critical moment."

During the battle, the two also saw Yang Ping'an's soul bone armor. His entire body was basically made of top-level soul bones with an incredibly high age. They really didn't need it anymore, especially since Yang Ping'an said that soul skills are indiscriminate on the battlefield. A 100,000-year-old torso soul bone could indeed provide a very strong life-saving skill.

Before the two could say anything, Yang Ping'an took out a pile of soul bones: "Master and Uncle, I don't know what kind of soul bones you are missing. Take any of these soul bones that you find useful. They might save your life in a critical moment. These are not of much use to me. It's a pity that I don't have any more torso soul bones."

Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo exchanged a glance, and in the end, without any hesitation, they chose a few pieces that suited them.

Afterwards, Chrysanthemum Douluo seemed a little puzzled: "Ping An, since you were able to defeat the Grand Elder this time, doesn't that mean you have no rivals in the Soul Master world? So when are you planning to go find Tang Chen?"

Yang Ping'an thought carefully before speaking: "My battle with the Grand Elder was not that simple. The Grand Elder had something on his mind and did not use his full strength. As for Tang Chen, I plan to go find him after I have rested for a while. I have gained some insights from this fight with the Grand Elder."

Ghost Douluo was a little puzzled: "Now that Tang Chen and Tang San have disappeared without a trace, are you sure you can find them? Should I arrange for Li Gui to help you search?"

Yang Ping'an's expression was unusually casual: "Thank you, Uncle-Master, but this is probably unnecessary. I possess the Killing God Domain, and Tang Chen holds the Asura Demon Sword, which is the source of all Killing God Domains. In addition, with my current level 99 strength, I sense that Tang Chen should be in Tiandou City right now."

Chrysanthemum Douluo seemed a little worried: "Ping An, Tang Chen might be even stronger than the Grand Elder, especially since he has the Asura Demon Sword. If he really fights for his life, who knows how strong he can become? You have to be very careful on your journey."

After the three talked for a while, Yang Ping'an, in particular, carefully observed Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo's physical condition. If they were to absorb the 100,000-year-old Titan Giant Ape torso soul bone, along with other soul bones, they might be able to reach level 98.

However, Yang Ping'an only had one torso soul bone of this level. After some discussion, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo felt that the soul bone's attributes were more suitable for Chrysanthemum Douluo, so Chrysanthemum Douluo absorbed it in the end.

As for Ghost Douluo, he took several other soul bones from Yang Ping'an, indicating that they planned to absorb the soul bones before going to the battlefield.

It took the two of them four whole days to absorb the soul bones. By absorbing the soul bone of the Titan Giant Ape, Chrysanthemum Douluo finally achieved a full set of high-level soul bones and his soul power reached level 98.

Apart from his torso, Ghost Douluo had collected all five other soul bones, but his soul power remained at the peak of level 97, a chasm between him and level 98.

Yang Ping'an couldn't help but sigh. No wonder all the soul masters in the world wanted to fight for the 100,000-year soul bone. It really is a treasure in the soul master world.

On this day, Lingyuan Douluo suddenly came to visit, saying that Bibi Dong wanted to invite him to meet.

Yang Ping'an was also surprised. Bibi Dong was the emperor of the Spirit Empire and her soul power had reached level 99. Logically speaking, the two of them had no interaction. Why would she look for him?

Although Yang Ping'an and Bibi Dong had collaborated several times, and compared to the others in the Spirit Hall, Yang Ping'an admired Bibi Dong's talent and courage more, he really didn't want to have too much contact with this woman because she was deep-thinking and ruthless.

Especially since Yang Ping'an had attacked Yu Xiaogang, who knew if Bibi Dong would go crazy and come after him? However, after thinking it over for a while, Yang Ping'an decided to meet with Bibi Dong. After all, his master and uncle worked under her, and he couldn't afford to offend her too much.
