Douluo Continent: Awakening the Original Martial Soul at the Start

Chapter 123 Qian Renxue Battles Tang Hao

"Bibi Dong! None of us in the Offering Hall want you and your daughter to kill each other. We hope you'll think this through!" Jin E sighed inwardly and looked sincerely at Bibi Dong as he spoke.

After saying that, he turned and walked out of the Papal Palace!

"what!"

After the golden crocodile left, a heart-wrenching roar echoed from inside the Papal Palace.

……

Inside the Haotian Sect, Tang Hao sat cross-legged in front of the Asura Demon Sword, absorbing streams of Asura power to heal his injuries. Knowing that he would have a chance to revive Ah Yin if he became the Asura God, Tang Hao was giving it his all.

Tang Xiao stood at a distance, watching with a look of satisfaction. If Tang Hao could really succeed in inheriting the position of the Asura God, then the rise of the Haotian Sect would be unstoppable. In addition, with the newly emerging blood and qi martial arts that were very suitable for the Haotian Hammer, the future of the Haotian Sect would reach an unimaginable height.

"Sect Master, we've just received news that Pope Bibi Dong and Grand Elder Qian Daoliu of the Spirit Hall have fallen out. Bibi Dong has led the vast majority of Spirit Masters and various clan forces to the former Kingdom of Silves to establish a new Spirit Hall, restoring the original Spirit Hall to its former status as the Angel Temple!"

The Grand Elder walked over to Tang Chen and told him the news he had received.

"Why did the Spirit Hall split up?!"

Tang Chen was shocked, but even more so, puzzled. The Spirit Hall, as the most powerful force on the continent, had always controlled all the spirit masters on the continent. Why would it cause a split at this critical juncture?

"The apparent reason seems to be that the Hall of Worship supports the spread of Qi and Blood Martial Arts, while Pope Bibi Dong does not, so the two sides fell out and split into two factions."

However, this reason is what puzzles me the most. How could the Spirit Hall, the power with the most Spirit Masters on the entire continent, suddenly support the Blood Martial Arts?!

"That leaves only one possibility: the Hall of Offerings is closely related to the spread of Qi and Blood Martial Arts. It's very likely that Xue Qinghe and the Body Sect were supported by the Hall of Offerings!"

Tang Chen analyzed calmly.

"You mean Li Fei is from the Spirit Hall?!" the Grand Elder asked uncertainly.

"It's very likely that Li Fei's rise to power was extremely suspicious. Which Soul Master could reach the Limit Douluo level in less than 200,000 years? I strongly suspect that Qian Daoliu discovered the power of blood and qi and gave it to Li Fei."

Tang Chen nodded and began to analyze the situation logically. In his opinion, how could a young man in his early twenties possibly discover the power of qi and blood? Moreover, when Tang Chen returned to Haotian Sect, he told them that it was Li Fei who saved him. The strength he displayed was even greater than that of his grandfather, who had already completed the seventh level of Asura cultivation. This made him even more suspicious that Li Fei was someone personally trained by Qian Daoliu.

"Sect Master, now that the power structure on the continent is about to be reshuffled, should our Clear Sky Sect support the Heaven Dou Empire or the Star Luo Empire?" the Grand Elder asked. As for the new Spirit Hall established by Bibi Dong, it was not even within the Clear Sky Sect's consideration.

Tang Chen calmly said, "The Heaven Dou Empire has Yuehua over there, Hao Di's son over here, and Li Fei saved my grandfather and is the new Sea God's successor. No matter what the relationship is, the Heaven Dou Empire is our first choice."

"Most importantly, our Haotian Sect needs the cultivation methods behind Qi and Blood Martial Arts. Although we can create and explore them ourselves, there are already ready-made methods to learn from, so why bother with all that trouble!"

The Grand Elder nodded repeatedly: "Sect Master, you are right. But the only problem now is that we, Li Fei, represent the Qian Daoliu lineage, and we have a grudge. After all, the previous Pope, Qian Xunji, was killed by Tang Hao, and our Haotian Sect was closed off for more than ten years because of this."

Do you think they'll accept us?

Tang Chen stroked his chin, his brow furrowed, and said, "That is indeed a problem!"

"Big brother, leave this to me!"

Tang Hao had finished his cultivation at some point. He opened his eyes and said, "The events of that year started because of me, and they should end because of me as well. It's time to settle things."

"What do you want to do?" Tang Xiao asked, his brows furrowing slightly.

He was genuinely worried, as his younger brother had a volatile temper and was capable of hitting anyone when angry, without considering the consequences.

"Brother, I know what you're worried about. For so many years, I've been holed up in that small place called Holy Soul Village, giving up on myself. Even for the sake of my child with Ah Yin, I will handle this matter properly!" Tang Hao said in a deep voice.

"Alright! Remember to come back soon. The Clear Sky Sect will always be your home!"

Tang Xiao patted Tang Hao on the shoulder and said earnestly.

……

The Imperial Palace, within the Body Sect!

Inside the living room, Li Fei held a small red flag in his hand, his brows slightly furrowed as he looked at the huge sand table in the center.

On the sand table, Li Fei had planted flags all over the area of ​​the Heavenly Dou Empire.

Each flag represents a place where unrest has occurred.

"I didn't expect that the strongest resistance would come from the nobles and wealthy merchants who represent the middle class of Soul Masters, while the top forces that I thought were very willing to accept Qi and Blood Martial Arts."

Li Fei was surprised. Since the spread of Qi and Blood Martial Arts, the top forces of the Heavenly Dou Empire not only did not reject it too much, but also readily accepted this new power.

Except... dropping the red flag on the mountain where the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family lives.

"Yu Yuanzhen! You think you can get the greatest profit by remaining neutral?"

A cold smile appeared on Li Fei's lips, and killing intent flashed in his eyes. Li Fei looked down on this kind of force in the slightest. No wonder it was the first one to be wiped out in the original story.

"Sect Master, a disheveled middle-aged man has arrived outside. He claims to be Tang Hao of the Haotian Sect!"

Just then, an eight-year-old child ran in and shouted at Li Fei.

"Yang Guang, I understand! While you're at it, have a disciple from your sect send someone to Yuexuan and the Heaven Dou Royal Academy to inform Tang Yuehua and Tang San to come to the Body Sect!"

Li Fei gently patted Yang Guang's head and said softly.

"good!"

Yang Guang nodded obediently, then turned and informed the others in the sect.

Li Fei straightened his clothes and quickly arrived outside the sect. There he saw a middle-aged man with a scraggly beard and sloppy clothes. It was Tang Hao. At this moment, he exuded a sense of power and his body was clearly fluctuating with qi and blood. He was completely different from the man Li Fei had seen six years ago. It seemed that he had already overcome the shadow of that year.

"Senior Tang Hao, what brings you here?!" Li Fei asked Tang Hao with a smile.

"Li Fei, I've come here to find out what happened back then. I already know you have connections with the Spirit Hall!" Tang Hao said, looking at Li Fei with a slightly cold voice.

"Let's discuss this further within our sect!"

Seeing Tang Hao nod, Li Fei led him to the main body sect's living room.

After Tang Hao sat down, Li Fei asked, "Senior, how do you intend to settle the matter from back then?!"

Tang Hao said solemnly, "Back then, Qian Xunji caused my wife A Yin to die, and he also died because of me. The Clear Sky Sect also formed a deep hatred with the Spirit Hall. However, the Clear Sky Sect is very optimistic about the spread of Qi and Blood Martial Arts and recognizes the potential of this system. Therefore, the Clear Sky Sect has decided to help the Heaven Dou Empire and the Body Sect."

"So what?!" Li Fei retorted.

"I want to settle things with the Sen family through a battle. Regardless of who wins or loses, that matter will be over!"

Looking at Tang Hao's serious face, Li Fei sighed inwardly, took out the communication bronze mirror from his storage bracelet, and input his soul power into it.

Upon seeing Qian Renxue's figure inside, Li Fei said in a deep voice, "Tang Hao is with me!"

There was silence within the bronze mirror for a long time. After a while, Qian Renxue's voice came through: "Okay, I'll be there soon. Tell him to wait!"

After putting away the bronze mirror, Li Fei looked at Tang Hao and said, "Senior, please wait a moment!"

"Alright!" Tang Hao nodded, then looked at Li Fei with a complicated expression and said, "I didn't expect that in just a few years you could go from Soul King to Limit Douluo, and your strength has even surpassed mine!"

"It's all luck, luck!" Li Fei nodded repeatedly with a smile.

"Luck? Do you think I believe in that?!" Tang Hao sneered, his eyes filled with seriousness. In his perception, Li Fei was just like any other ordinary person on the street. He not only had no soul power aura, but he also couldn't sense any blood or qi.

But he sensed a strong aura of death emanating from Li Fei, a feeling he had only experienced when he ventured into Hell Road in the City of Slaughter years ago.

"They're here!"

As soon as Li Fei finished speaking, Tang Hao felt a scorching aura, as hot as the sun, coming from the direction of Tian Dou City. Then, he was instantly inside the Body Sect. He then saw Qian Renxue walk in with her long, golden hair standing on end and wearing a set of golden armor.

"What is this?!" Tang Hao asked, somewhat puzzled.

"I am Qian Xunji's daughter—Qian Renxue!" Qian Renxue said, looking at Tang Hao with a complicated expression.

Qian Renxue has now completed the first seven trials of the Angel. Both her blood and soul power have reached level ninety-seven under the divine power, and her realm has reached the Lesser Stillness realm, with a clear mind and impervious to all evil.

"You are Qian Xunji's daughter!" Tang Hao stood up instantly and roared. The Asura Domain, which evolved from the Killing God Domain, opened instantly, and the cold killing intent raged throughout the living room, with frost spreading throughout the entire living room in an instant.

A crimson-gold halo appeared two meters around Qian Renxue, and the Angel Domain unfolded, blocking the Asura Domain from the outside.

"As expected, the reason Tang Hao recovered was because of the hope that the Asura inheritance brought him!"

The Asura Domain spread around Li Fei and dissipated like a gentle breeze, but it was precisely because of this domain that Li Fei was able to confirm his suspicions.

"Senior Tang Hao, let's fight in Sunset Forest! I also have many details I want to know about what happened back then!" Qian Renxue said calmly.

"Let's go!"

Tang Hao's voice was deep and powerful. He turned around and transformed into a streak of red light, flying towards Sunset Forest, with Qian Renxue following closely behind.

"Tang Yuehua and Tang San arrived pretty quickly!" Li Fei had just gotten up to follow when he sensed that Tang Yuehua and Tang San had already arrived at the entrance of the Body Sect. They were at the sect's gate in an instant!

"Greetings, Sect Leader Li!"

"Greetings, Brother Li Fei!"

Tang San and Tang Yuehua immediately bowed slightly upon seeing Li Fei.

"Alright, come with me first, we can talk about it later!"

Just as the two were about to ask Li Fei why he had summoned them, Li Fei interrupted them. With a wave of his hand, the two immediately felt a buoyancy rising from their feet. Then they felt a dizzying sensation, and when they came to their senses, they found themselves in the air above the Sunset Forest.

Li Fei stood beside the two of them, calmly gazing into the distance.

Following Li Fei's gaze, the two saw that the golden and red lights had divided the world in two, constantly colliding with each other. Terrifying soul power erupted continuously, and the scarlet and golden-red lights swept in all directions like a storm.

As the storm approached Tang San and Tang Yuehua, a golden-red protective shield blocked it from entering!

"This is my second brother (father)!"

Tang San and Tang Yuehua gasped as they looked at the middle-aged man in the center of the crimson light, then they stared at each other.

"You're my second brother's son?!" Tang Yuehua asked in confusion.

"May I ask who you are, senior?!" Tang San was even more puzzled. His father was clearly just an ordinary blacksmith in Holy Soul Village, yet he possessed such strength. This kind of soul power fluctuation was like a drop in the ocean even for the three instructors of Heaven Dou Academy.

What puzzled him even more was that the dignified woman next to him actually called his father "Second Brother".

"Since you are Second Brother's son, how come you don't know who I am?!" Tang Yuehua was also puzzled!

"My father was just from Holy Soul Village..."

Tang San was about to talk about their past, but when he saw Tang Hao in the distance swinging the Clear Sky Hammer and smashing things relentlessly, he couldn't bring himself to say anything.

"Watch closely! We'll talk about everything after this battle!" Li Fei said, his eyes fixed on the battle in the distance. He would immediately intervene if Qian Renxue was in danger.

"The Nine Absolute Techniques of Haotian - The Zhen Character Absolute Technique!"

With a roar, Tang Hao wielded the massive Clear Sky Hammer in his hand as if it had no weight at all, swinging it around as casually as a feather. He unleashed a variety of exquisite moves, each strike generating a shockwave that spread outwards.

Qian Renxue frowned, and swung out the Angelic Holy Sword to block the Haotian Hammer. A shockwave instantly spread throughout her body, causing her to become numb and her movements to become distorted.

Soul power and blood energy circulated rapidly, dispelling the numbness.

"Angelic radiance!"

Immediately, golden-red light emanated from the Angelic Holy Sword in Qian Renxue's hand. The Holy Sword began to vibrate rapidly, and a vibrational force far exceeding the Zhenzi Jue instantly shattered Tang Hao's Haotian Hammer, and then began to counterattack continuously.

"Ring explosion!"

Seeing that the Nine Absolutes of Haotian were ineffective, the first four of the nine soul rings surrounding Tang Hao instantly shattered, and streams of violent soul power continuously converged on the Haotian Hammer, causing the Haotian Hammer to grow larger and larger, with the power of each strike increasing exponentially.

A cold smile appeared on Qian Renxue's lips. Nine spirit rings, four black and five red, rose up. To Tang Hao's astonishment, the first four ten-thousand-year spirit rings, like his, shattered into fragments. Then, Qian Renxue's clear, cold voice could be heard.

"Ring explosion!"
