Douluo Continent: The Eternal Order of the Azure Sky.

It allowed Kong Tianxu's fingers to carefully feel every vein, only trembling softly and emitting a silent lament.

After carefully considering it, a sense of enlightenment appeared in Kong Tianxu's eyes.

He shook his head.

To be honest, he was quite interested in the so-called pure-blooded Blue Silver Emperor, as this would be an important reference for dealing with Tang San in the future.

However, it is clear that the Blue Silver Emperor, being merely a top-tier soul beast, cannot escape the constraints of its own level.

This kind of soul beast is not particularly outstanding among 100,000-year-old soul beasts. Its most distinctive characteristic, immortality, is simply that its vitality has a special protective mechanism.

When Blue Silver Emperor suffers fatal damage, it will seal away its core life essence in an extremely secretive way, entering a dormant state similar to suspended animation.

When the external environment becomes suitable, the sealed life essence will sprout anew and grow into a new Blue Silver Emperor.

The mechanism is not complicated at all. It's just that because humans in this era lacked mastery of spatial power and could not track the spatial fluctuations when the essence of life was sealed, they thought it was immortal.

For a powerful individual who has mastered the power of space, it can be broken with a flick of the finger.

Kong Tianxu put away the Blue Silver Emperor along with the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone that he had retrieved from the stone hole at the top of the cave, and turned his gaze to the outside of the waterfall.

We have guests.

Passing through that thick curtain of water, the roar of the waterfall exploded in my ears, and the mist rushed towards me, refracting into countless tiny rainbows in the sunlight.

On the opposite bank of the deep, emerald pool, Qian Renxue spread three pairs of pure white angel wings, hovering several feet above the ground. Her long golden hair shimmered in the sunlight, and her cold, beautiful face held a hint of wariness, yet she showed no intention of approaching.

Kong Tianxu made no attempt to conceal his presence. He didn't even bother to look at Qian Renxue; instead, he raised his head, his gaze passing over her and landing on the azure sky behind her.

"Where is the Vast Ocean Universe Cover?"

A flash of azure light appeared in Qian Renxue's hand, and a strange object appeared in her palm.

It was a crystal-clear blue object, three-dimensional and triangular in shape, only the size of a palm. It looked as if it had been carved from a single piece of the purest sapphire, with rippling blue patterns that reflected a faint, precious light throughout the waterfall, even giving Qian Renxue's cold and beautiful face a soft blue halo.

Qian Renxue spoke first:

"Yu Xiaogang is dead. What about Tang Hao? Did you kill him? Or did you never find him?"

Her voice was calm, but deep within her phoenix eyes lay a hint of nervousness she was unwilling to admit.

Kong Tianxu did not answer, but simply raised his right hand and waved it gently.

Two soul bones appeared out of thin air and hovered in front of Qian Renxue.

It was a right arm bone and a left leg bone, radiating a deep, ethereal light, quietly suspended in the air. Yet, the powerful and volatile energy fluctuations spread outwards in all directions without any concealment, causing the pool water to ripple in circles.

"You should be able to recognize what this is, right?"

Qian Renxue's pupils contracted slightly.

"The Clear Sky Sect's inherited soul bones? The right arm bone of a 60,000-year-old bronze bull and the left leg bone of a 60,000-year-old serpent. When Tang Hao became famous, he made a name for himself with these two soul bones. In the battle when he severely injured three Title Douluos from the Spirit Hall, these two soul bones played a significant role."

"You actually did it?" Qian Renxue's voice was a little hoarse. "And in just one day?"

Her gaze became complex. Shock, apprehension, and a vague sense of awe that she herself couldn't quite explain.

Finding Tang Hao and killing him within a day—such strength and intelligence capabilities far exceeded her expectations.

Qian Renxue remained silent for a moment, then threw the Vast Ocean Universe Cover towards Kong Tianxu.

The blue triangle drew a graceful arc in the air before being caught steadily in Kong Tianxu's hand.

“I’ve already spoken to Ye Lingling, and Elder Ghost Leopard won’t bother her anymore.” Qian Renxue took a deep breath, her voice regaining its composure, and stared straight at Kong Tianxu. “It’s time for you to lift the restrictions on me.”

Upon hearing this, Kong Tianxu looked at Qian Renxue and suddenly smiled.

The smile came suddenly and went quickly, but Qian Renxue felt it was like a fleeting ripple on a lake, dimming the beauty of the surrounding scenery.

But the next moment, this handsome young man, almost unreal in his appearance, uttered words that made Qian Renxue grind her teeth:

"There is no restriction. It is just a strand of soul power that I left in your dantian and merged with your spiritual power."

Qian Renxue's expression suddenly changed.

"You're kidding me?!"

Her voice was filled with barely suppressed anger, but inexplicably, she immediately believed what the other person said. Ignoring the ominous premonition coming from the depths of her dantian, she directly circulated her soul power and charged towards the purplish-gold pattern.

Then, that ball of purple-gold light was dispersed by her.

Once freed from its constraints, the soul power that had merged with the spiritual power quickly blended seamlessly with Qian Renxue's own soul power.

This was an extremely powerful and pure force. The moment the two soul forces merged, she felt a sense of tranquility in her mind. All the emotions that had been suppressed for so long were gently soothed by that warm force.

Deep within his dantian, something was stirring, showing signs of an impending breakthrough.

Qian Renxue's eyebrows furrowed, her expression shifting between anger and joy, unsure whether to be angry or pleased.

Kong Tianxu laughed heartily. His clear and cheerful laughter echoed through the valley, mingling with the roar of the waterfall.

Farewell!

"Hey! You—"

Kong Tianxu leaped up, transforming into a streak of light and disappearing into the horizon. Qian Renxue didn't even have time to utter a word before his white figure became a tiny dot of light on the horizon.

Is it really a Title Douluo? There's actually such a young Title Douluo; it's not an insult to myself after all…

Qian Renxue narrowed her long, narrow phoenix eyes, watching the departing streak of light. Her lips moved, but she ultimately did not utter the question.

Just then, a golden light burst forth on the distant horizon.

The golden light was so bright that it could be clearly seen from dozens of miles away. The moment it burst open in the sky, the entire horizon was dyed a brilliant gold, as if someone had poured a whole basin of molten gold onto the azure sky.

Grandpa made a move.

Qian Renxue's heart leaped into her throat. She should have chased after Qian Daoliu to help him, but in the end she just hovered in place, staring intently at the slowly flowing golden light.

The collision ended faster than expected.

Before long, a figure swept in from the horizon and landed beside her.

There are only a thousand streams.

Qian Renxue felt very heavy-hearted; her grandfather looked somewhat disheveled.

Her usually meticulously combed long black hair was now somewhat disheveled, with a few stray strands falling down and obscuring half of her eye.

Qian Daoliu's expression was solemn. Although his breathing had calmed down, Qian Renxue could still see the tremor beneath the calm.

"Grandpa, how is he?" Qian Renxue asked hurriedly, her voice filled with an urgency she herself didn't realize. "He..."

Qian Daoliu remained silent for a moment.

“His soul power fluctuation is only eight rings. But the soul ring ratio is definitely not normal, the lowest one is at least 100,000 years old.”

Qian Renxue felt a sense of relief, but then her breath hitched.

“I’m certain he’s also a Divine Examiner,” Qian Daoliu continued. “I had a brief exchange with him. The power he unleashed was actually not much weaker than mine.”

Qian Renxue nodded silently, but felt a strange mix of joy and disappointment in her heart.

Qian Daoliu's expression was somewhat strange.

"Oh, right, Xue'er. He also asked me to pass on a message to you."

"Hmm?" Qian Renxue lowered her head, but her voice clearly rose at the end.

Qian Dao turned his face away and secretly rubbed his bruised eyes.

Young people lack martial ethics!

He said his name wasn't Wei, but Kong Tianxu.

"I understand, Grandpa. This person will definitely be my greatest enemy in the future."

Qian Renxue nodded indifferently, each of her wings fully extended.

Radiant with health.

Unbeknownst to them, the mysterious energy that had previously merged into Qian Renxue's soul power was quietly circulating deep within her dantian.

It is so tiny and so hidden, like a drop of water merging into the ocean, that its existence is completely imperceptible.

But it was indeed there, like a seed planted deep in the soil, quietly sleeping, waiting for the right time.

……

The City of Slaughter.

"Get out of my way! Tang Yin, Tang Yin, are you alright?!"

Hu Liena wielded her fox tail like a giant wolf-tooth club, scattering the men who had gathered around her.

She had just emerged from the hellish killing field when she sensed something was wrong. Trying to figure out what was going on, she hid as she went, until she vaguely saw a familiar dark blue hue rising and falling among the stinking crowd of men.

That was her intended ally, Tang Yin.

Having already given up resisting, Tang San, upon hearing that familiar voice, found an unknown source of strength and began to struggle frantically.

But it was too late.

His exaggerated movements only fueled a kind of frenzied outburst. The last person yelled as he climbed off Tang San, pulled up his pants, and stumbled away.

He was a man so thin he was practically skin and bones, with sunken eyes and high cheekbones. When he ran, he looked like a skeleton being blown by the wind.

A hideous satisfaction lingered on his face, a trace of drool hanging from the corner of his mouth, as he ran while letting out a strange, grating laugh.

A slender shadow, unlike any it had seen before, was cast from behind Tang San.

"Tang...Yin".

The sound was very soft, so soft that it was almost swallowed up by the sounds of fighting coming from afar.

But Tang San heard it. His body froze completely in that instant, a freeze that came from the depths of his soul.

He lay there, motionless, like a sculpture whose soul had been taken away.

Tang San was heartbroken.

Hu Liena looked at the scene before her and staggered back a step in fear.

Before her was a chrysanthemum in full bloom with white stamens.
