Douluo Phoenix

Chapter 130 Tang Hao Comes to the Elemental Academy

In the following period, Xiao Fei focused on researching the Evil God Pearl, the Asura Demon Sword, and the Vast Ocean Universe Cover.

The sword he studied most deeply was the Asura Demon Sword. Every time he grasped it, he felt an overwhelming killing intent surge towards him, somewhat similar to his Killing God Domain. Through repeated battles, the Killing God Domain gradually evolved into the Asura Domain. However, compared to the Asura Demon Sword, it seemed worlds apart.

Every time Xiao Fei tried to get closer to the Asura Demon Sword, a special power would emanate from it. Under this power, everything seemed to be nothing but ants. No matter how strong Xiao Fei's will was, he couldn't help but feel a tremor in his heart.

It seemed to be facing a higher level of suppression. Whether it was the body, soul power, or even the soul, it was as if facing a huge chasm. There seemed to be a glimmer of understanding, but more than that, it felt distant, as if everything was out of reach.

Is this the difference between humans and gods?

This reminds me of Tang San's ninth trial as the Sea God and Qian Renxue's ninth trial as the Angel God in the original novel.

The ninth trial of the Sea God required a sacrifice from the Sea God Douluo Poseidon, while the ninth trial of the Angel God required a sacrifice from Qian Daoliu. Their sacrifices seem to be the key to passing the divine trials.

Only after reaching level 99 did I truly understand the power of the Limit Douluo. Just as Poseidon said in the original work, it is extremely difficult for a normal person to cultivate to level 99, because it takes a full three hundred years to go from level 97 to level 98, and it takes a full six hundred years of tireless and arduous cultivation to go from level 98 to level 99. It is practically unsolvable.

Xiao Fei estimated that to truly break through this insurmountable barrier, a level 99 Peerless Douluo would need at least 5000 years of cultivation. The Sea God and Angel God of yesteryear, he likely achieved their breakthroughs through sheer faith.

Tang San and Qian Renxue were able to break through their limits only through the divine power of the previous god.

The suffering involved far exceeds that of ordinary people.

Moreover, gods are actually human beings; the realm they reach is the result of human power reaching a certain level. That is, the realm reached by a Limit Douluo after condensing their tenth spirit ring.

In the original story, Tang San separated seven soul bones, each of which underwent the cleansing of the Sea God's divine power. Ultimately, all the soul bones merged into one, forming Tang San's divine bones. Finally, he repaired the Heart of the Sea God and fused it with the Trident of the Sea God to become a divine artifact passed down through generations.

And in the process, they endured the pain of having their bones peeled off and the test of their seven emotions and desires.

The test of the seven emotions and seven desires involves experiencing joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, hate, and desire from beginning to end. It is through this test that Tang San's soul can transform into a divine soul, and his entire body's soul bones can form a complete set of Sea God Armor. Furthermore, Tang San's previous Eight Spider Lances have transformed into the Eight Wings of the Sea God.

In other words, the first basic condition for becoming a god is to possess a body of 100,000-year-old soul bones, which are then fused together to form a divine armor. Finally, the soul needs to undergo a metamorphosis, transforming into a divine soul.

All of this is inseparable from energy, comparable to a massive amount of energy.

Xiao Fei shook his head and sighed. Although he now possessed the divine artifacts, none seemed to be able to fully recognize him as their master, and he could only use them with difficulty. He also had no clue how to break through his soul into a divine soul. However, he could focus on researching how to form armor from his soul bones in the near future.

Xiao Fei currently possesses five 100,000-year-old soul bones, and two external soul bones have reached the 90,000-year level. He is still missing the most important torso bone.

It seems we need to find the Temple of Fire. Xiao Fei already has some ideas about the Temple of Fire.

"It seems we need to set off to find the Temple of Fire as soon as possible; time is running out," Xiao Fei muttered to himself.

That day, just as Xiao Fei was preparing to cultivate, he sensed a slight fluctuation of soul power.

"Since you're here, come out."

A tall figure emerged from the darkness; it was Tang Hao.

Tang Hao seemed to be in much better shape than before, and his mental state was also much better. He was no longer wearing his old, tattered clothes, but rather a tight-fitting leather outfit that showed off his exaggerated physique, especially his muscle lines, which were even more robust than those of bodybuilders in his previous life.

Xiao Fei waved his hand gently, and a cup of tea appeared on the opposite side of the table: "Uncle Hao, please sit down and have some tea first!"

Without saying a word, Tang Hao sat down opposite Xiao Fei and started drinking tea.

"Uncle Hao, what brings you to the Elemental Academy today?"

Tang Hao said in a deep voice, "How do you know that the King of Slaughter is my grandfather?"

"I'm just speculating. There are very few peerless Douluo in this world, and each one is famous throughout the world. The King of Slaughter has always stayed in the City of Slaughter, so it's impossible for him to become a peerless Douluo so easily."

"With the strength of the King of Slaughter, he is definitely not a simple person. I estimate that he should be a Peerless Douluo. There are very few people in the world who can become Peerless Douluos, and there are even fewer Peerless Douluos who have disappeared. Tang Chen, the former sect master of the Clear Sky Sect, is a Peerless Douluo, almost invincible in the world. I don't believe that there is any place that can trap him. Therefore, I guess that the King of Slaughter is Tang Chen."

"Uncle Hao, you've been to Slaughter City, what did you think of it?"

"I have indeed been to Kill City, and I am almost certain that the King of Slaughter is my grandfather, so I want to rescue him."

Xiao Fei shook his head: "Uncle Hao, I'm really sorry. I already promised the King of Slaughter last time that I wouldn't attack Slaughter City. Besides, even if we went to Slaughter City, it wouldn't make any difference."

"Besides, Sect Master Tang Chen should have already given you a letter, and also told you about his current physical condition. If you rashly rescue Sect Master Tang Chen, you will probably end up harming him instead."

Tang Hao's face contorted with rage: "Am I just supposed to stand by and watch my grandfather turn into this?"

"That depends on your choice. If you keep Sect Master Tang Chen alive as he is now, there may be a chance to revive him or even restore him in the future."

"Or you could try your best to rescue Sect Master Tang Chen now, and then watch him die immediately."

Tang Hao looked coldly at Xiao Fei: "Why did you do this? What good does it do you?"

Xiao Fei coldly said, "Uncle Hao, are you mistaken about something? I didn't do anything from beginning to end. Even when I took Yang Wudi and Niu Gao to the City of Slaughter, it was only to sever their final ties with the Haotian Sect."

"Furthermore, the news, letters, and Haotian Token of Sect Master Tang Chen were all brought out and handed over to you by our Elemental Academy. Do you think these are all wrong? Our Elemental Academy doesn't owe your Haotian Sect anything."

After listening to Xiao Fei's words, Tang Hao seemed to calm down. The two of them remained in a quiet and strange environment, neither of them intending to speak for the time being.
