Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Saint Master, Twelve Talismans Chaotic the Continent

Chapter 50 The Jiangnan Leather Factory Closed Down

……

"If that kid's moves could really control others at will, he wouldn't have deliberately provoked you to attack him," Golden Crocodile said.

"Perhaps his martial spirit needs to meet some special conditions to activate, and those conditions are passive."

The demon-slaying demon's expression froze. "Then does that mean we really can't attack that kid?"

Is there a risk of being manipulated if one takes the initiative?

"At least that's how it is now. After all, even the Grand Elder couldn't stop that kid's control, so there's no way we can stop him either," said Golden Crocodile.

"As for weaknesses, he can only control one at a time, and when he activates control, his body will lose control, most likely resulting in a backlash. That clone was probably activated by him to protect his own body."

"Then we're helpless against him?" Jiangmo asked gravely.

"No." Qian Daoliu frowned slightly.

"His control must have had other limitations; otherwise, he shouldn't have made me ambush the Golden Crocodile, but should have made me commit suicide like the Demon Bear!"

Perhaps his mental strength was strong enough, or perhaps the angelic power within him resisted some of the control.

But that kid's mind control could never allow him to do whatever he wanted!

"So what do we do next?" asked Qianjun Douluo.

"The elders are terrified of him, and they'll probably all side with Bibi Dong next."

"Don't move for now," Qian Daoliu said.

"We absolutely cannot make a move before we figure out what that kid is capable of."

"Then... what about Xiaoxue?" Jin'e asked worriedly.

"You saw it yourself, that kid is a complete madman, he's really capable of anything!"

Qian Daoliu paused for a moment, then said, "Probably not. If he really wanted to die together with me, he wouldn't have repeatedly used Xiaoxue to provoke me."

"He was reminding me where my weaknesses lie."

His biggest concern in not letting Qianjun Jiangmo take action just now was Qianrenxue!

If we fail to completely eliminate that kid today, then it will truly be a fight to the death!

A madman hiding in the shadows!

Damn it! The reason he didn't attack the Haotian Sect was precisely because he was afraid of this kind of madman!

First it was Tang Chen, and now there's this even more dangerous madman!

"What if?" Golden Crocodile asked worriedly.

Qian Daoliu paused for a moment, then said, "I'll go talk to Bibi Dong. Hopefully, that crazy woman hasn't completely lost her mind yet."

"Would she care?" Golden Crocodile asked doubtfully.

"Perhaps, this is the only way now. If it doesn't work..." Qian Daoliu's eyes narrowed.

"Then let's all perish together!"

……

"Yo-ho? Where are you all headed?"

After Qian Daoliu left, Nan Feng walked to the conference table and picked up two soul bones.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the six titled Douluo, represented by Ghost Leopard Douluo, secretly tried to slip away.

"Forehead……"

Seeing Yue Guan and Gui Mei silently walk to the entrance of the Elder Hall and stand there, the elders stopped in their tracks with stiff expressions.

Damn! You two are really disloyal!

"My business with Qian Daoliu is temporarily over. What about you guys?" Nan Feng asked with a smile.

"Aren't you going to do anything? Or do I need to take the initiative?"

"No, no, no!" The elders panicked.

You want us to take the initiative? Do you think we're even alive?

They are afraid of death, but not that afraid. The problem is, nobody wants to die for no reason!

How frustrating!!

"But we don't have any soul bones either," Ghost Leopard Douluo said awkwardly.

Soul bones are entirely a matter of luck!

Most titled Douluo don't have a single soul bone!

Even if there were any, they would have been absorbed immediately, leaving no room for any.

"No? So poor?" Nan Feng raised an eyebrow.

"After working for the Spirit Hall for half my life, I can't even get a bone in my pocket?"

Upon hearing this, even Yue Guan and Gui Mei's expressions became somewhat unnatural.

No, what do you take the soul bone for?

A Chinese cabbage by the roadside?

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

If hunting soul beasts yields soul bones, they are almost always absorbed by the soul master along with their soul rings, and it's impossible for them to escape to the outside world.

If a Soul Master dies of old age, their Soul Bone will dissipate along with their Soul Power, turning into an ordinary bone!

To seize the soul bone from a living person, one must use special means to extract the portion of the soul bone that has been absorbed from the person while they are still alive. If it is forcibly removed, the soul bone will shatter, lose its soul nature, and become a broken bone.

Moreover, the soul bones that have been absorbed will inevitably suffer damage during the bone extraction process, and most of them will be incomplete.

Even if it's passed down for two generations, it will still become a worthless, useless soul bone.

To obtain a soul bone without any loss, only a Title Douluo could sever their own cultivation before death!

Just like the Clear Sky Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, the inherited soul bone is only given to those who are confirmed to have the potential to become Title Douluo.

Most Soul Masters, or rather, all Soul Masters who can cultivate to the level of Soul Saint or above, want to die with dignity. Who would want to die with their body incomplete?

"Don't be nervous, sit down, make yourself at home," Nan Feng said.

The elders returned with pained expressions and sat down in their seats.

What are they doing here today?!

Aside from the Pope, the Spirit Hall has a total of sixteen Title Douluo, more than the seven major sects combined. In addition to the seven Grand Elders led by Qian Daoliu, there are nine Title Douluo Elders. Yue Guan and Gui Mei are with Bibi Dong, and Mo Xiong just died, so now there are only six Title Douluo Elders left.

The group includes the porcupine, the snake spear, the ghost leopard, the spirit kite, Tuoba hope, the sect leader of the Holy Dragon Sect, and the "Ninth Elder," who has almost no presence.

"Tsk~ What a tragic death." Nan Feng walked to the corpse of the demonic bear, a look of sorrow on his face.

"Look at this, this is the good dog of the Qian family, no one even claims its body now that it's dead."

Harsh and ungrateful, this is true of Qian Daoliu, Qian Xunji, and Qian Renxue. They are basically the same kind of character inherited from the Qian family. Bibi Dong, who was taught by Qian Xunji, is also similar.

He couldn't see any human touch in the Spirit Hall, nor did he see any sense of belonging to the Spirit Hall from these elders and bishops, because that's just the organization's corporate culture.

The principle of "the mediocre fall and the capable rise" made the Spirit Hall the most popular organization among spirit masters, making it powerful, but also destined it to be extremely fragile.

There is absolutely no sense of cohesion!

Except for a very few Soul Masters who were brainwashed from childhood, all Soul Masters who joined the Spirit Hall halfway through their lives treated the Spirit Hall as an "electronics factory," and they were all more eager to make money than the last. Just like the Spirit Empire that Bibi Dong established in the later period, it expanded to the point that it was able to suppress the two great empires in just a few years.

But when they're not making money, they all run away faster than anyone else!

After Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue died, the Spirit Empire collapsed almost instantly!

Just like the Jiangnan Leather Factory went bankrupt, it's gone and that's it.

Human touch is disgusting to outsiders because its existence creates privileges and breeds corruption. But is it possible for a human society to exist without human touch?

Most people think about how one person's success brings benefits to their entire family, rather than about betraying one's relatives.

Who wouldn't want a powerful relative?

Why? Of course, it's to get some benefit from it.

But what if someone else had such a powerful relative?

Corruption! Utter corruption! Why don't they just die!
