Douluo Continent: A Moment of Godhood and Demonhood, Inheriting the Dual Godhoods of Good and Evil

Chapter 88 One and a Half Years, Soul King

"The Alchemy Hall, Min Hall, and Yu Hall have completely settled in Wuhun City and seem to be living in harmony. The Haotian Sect has remained silent and seems to have completely disappeared from the world."

Ghostly Demon explained, "The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger is still digesting; it seems it will take a long time to fully absorb the power of a 100,000-year-old soul beast."

Qian Renxin nodded; this news was not surprising.

"Tell my father and grandfather that I need to continue my seclusion for over a year to raise my cultivation level to Soul King."

He spoke calmly.

He's been too busy lately and needs to complete all the divine assessments as soon as possible to help him further improve his strength.

The ghost accepted the order and went to report to Qian Daoliu and Qian Xunji.

"More than a year? You're really patient..."

Qian Xunji said admiringly, thinking to himself that Qian Renxin's maturity was simply not that of a nine-year-old child.

Many Soul Masters rely on their innate talent and neglect the importance of hard work.

But in reality, most of those who become Title Douluo are not born with full soul power; they climb up step by step through hard work and opportunities.

For someone like Qian Renxin, who is at an age where he should be playing, spending more than a year in a monotonous seclusion shows his calm and composed personality.

"Yes, once Xin'er grows up, the Spirit Hall will soon be able to make another step forward."

Qian Daoliu smiled and nodded.

Given the current size of the Spirit Hall, it already surpasses that of a single great empire, and the next step would be to unify the continent, though he didn't say it explicitly.

"Now that Xin'er has emerged from seclusion, can I finally pass the papacy to her?"

Qian Xunji stroked his chin, studying it.

Seeing that his two children possessed extraordinary talent, he was not one to give up. He also wanted to go to the mainland to gain experience and see if he could make a breakthrough.

Qian Daoliu glanced at him sideways and asked:

"Even if he's been in seclusion for over a year, he'll be at most eleven years old when he emerges. An eleven-year-old pope? Are you serious? There doesn't seem to be a precedent for that in the Spirit Hall..."

"Is there any precedent for the Spirit Hall having two major deity lineages?"

Qian Xunji countered, "Father, neither of us is capable of leading the Spirit Hall to true prosperity. Your gentle nature makes you unsuitable for starting a war, while my personality is more suitable, but my strength is too weak to become the leader."

"Only Xin'er is the most suitable, which is why I wanted him to inherit the papacy as soon as possible. After he has settled in the position of pope for a few years, the elders and temple masters below will be more obedient to him, so there is no need to rush into the position."

Qian Daoliu thought about it for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

"That's fine too. Anyway, I'll handle the Pope's affairs, so it won't interfere with Xin'er's cultivation."

Time flies,

Aside from top-tier Soul Masters, one or two years of seclusion is an extremely long time for most Soul Masters.

Cultivation is no fun; staying in the cultivation room all the time is extremely boring and tedious.

"Finally, I've broken through to level 50..."

Qian Renxin stretched and stood up, saying,

With the aid of top-grade medicine, and after condensing his soul power, he spent about a year and a half advancing six levels.

This improvement is already very fast, considering it was achieved without absorbing any soul bones or soul rings.

With the enhancement of the Mysterious Heaven Skill, Tang San advanced about three levels per year in the Soul Master and Great Soul Master realms.

He has already reached the Soul Master realm, making it even more difficult to increase his soul power.

Moreover, his soul power concentration is twice as high as that of others at the same level, and his capacity is three times higher.

It can be said,

Even the Soul Emperor doesn't have as much soul power as him.

However, the rapid improvement also meant that a lot of residual medicinal power accumulated in the body.

This is the downside of escalating drug use.

Although top-grade medicines are refined by alchemists, the mortal world of Douluo Continent clearly cannot produce perfect pills. It can only be said that the refined medicines are more mild in effect, much better than consuming large quantities of immortal herbs.

If it were the potent medicinal power of the immortal herb, such a large amount of residual medicinal power would probably burst the body.

"Luckily, I already had a solution in mind..."

He remained calm.

The reason he used drugs to quickly increase his strength was so that he could go to Poseidon Island and get the Poseidon assessment for free.

The Light of the Sea God and the Tidal Body Refinement can both help him digest the residual medicinal power and improve his physical fitness, so there's really no reason for him to miss them.

Although he is only a Soul King, his true strength has already surpassed that of Tang San, who was of the same age, and he is definitely capable of challenging the Sea God's assessment.

"But the Vast Ocean Universe Cover is still in the Heavenly Dou Royal Family. We need to find a way to get it, otherwise we won't be able to start the Sea God Trial."

Qianren planned with unwavering confidence.

The Sea God certainly wouldn't voluntarily initiate trials for him, a successor of another deity; he could only choose to go through the process using the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, just like with the Asura Blood Sword.

As a national treasure of the Heaven Dou Empire, it's likely that only when the Spirit Hall attacks the Heaven Dou Empire's doorstep will Emperor Xue Ye reluctantly hand it over.

However, the Spirit Hall is not yet ready to wage war against the two great empires, since Qian Renxue and he have not yet fully developed and it is still a long time before they can establish a Spirit Empire.

The latest novel is first published here!

"Never mind, let's take it one step at a time. If it really doesn't work, we'll just stop absorbing top-grade medicine for cultivation for now, and the residual medicinal power will dissipate slowly."

He composed himself and opened the door to the cultivation room.

After taking a shower and changing my clothes, the ghostly figure guarding the door greeted me.

"Congratulations, young master, on your advancement to the Soul King realm."

The ghost spoke,

Qian Renxin had already given instructions before going into seclusion, and that he would definitely be at level 50 by the time he emerged. Although he hadn't hunted any spirit rings yet, it wouldn't hurt to congratulate him in advance.

"Thank you for your hard work, protecting my safety all this time."

Qianrenxin calmly and reassured him.

While he was in seclusion, Ghostly Demon also stayed there for a year, with Spirit Kite occasionally coming to relieve him.

"Of course," Ghostly replied humbly.

"The medicine refining hall is doing very well. At present, the medicinal herb business in Wuhun City is basically monopolized. Other continental forces are even coming to the city to buy them themselves. The delivery service is also very good. So far, there has not been a single accident."

"Although the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger is still asleep, its body has evolved a lot. It looks like it is not far from becoming a 100,000-year-old soul beast. The Holy Maiden has replenished four soul rings and her soul power level has reached level 95."

After hearing about what has happened in the past year,

Qian Renxin nodded, then said jokingly, "It must have been hard on you, someone who doesn't like to talk, to say so much all at once."

This time, the ghost didn't respond, but only let out a soft sigh.

This kind of work is usually handled by Yue Guan, but recently he's been busy taking care of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger and helping the Holy Maiden hunt soul beasts, so there's no one to help him.

He went on to say,

"Young Master, His Holiness the Pope wants to see you."

"Alright, I'll go see him at the Papal Palace now." Qian Renxin stood up and walked towards the door.
