Douluo Continent: I Raise God-Level Soul Beasts

Bibi Dong said lazily, rubbing her eyes with her fair arm. There were some bluish-red marks on her skin, and she didn't know where she had bumped or hit.

"Let me take a little more nap~"

"hug."

Bibi Dong smiled, stretched out her hands to Su Ze, and opened her arms.

Su Ze was somewhat helpless. Once he entered the gentle embrace of women, even someone as determined as him became a little confused.

But he didn't blame Dong'er for staying in bed.

Bibi Dong realized her mistake; she shouldn't have encouraged Su Ze to eat those oysters. Clearly, he didn't need them at all!

You can't expect someone who's already ridiculously strong to become even stronger.

That would make you go further apart faster and widen the gap.

It's like an iron rod stuck in cheese.

"Alright, but I've already made arrangements with the people from Poseidon Island. They can take you out to play all day today. Didn't you say last night that you were going to take me somewhere? Now it seems that you should rest, Dong'er."

Su Ze playfully pinched Bibi Dong's nose and was about to get up and leave.

Unexpectedly, Bibi Dong pulled him into her arms with a sudden movement, pressing him against her body, kissing him on the lips, and humming:

"Let's not rest anymore, let's go out and have some fun."

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong immediately perked up, a bright smile spreading across her face.

"Maybe we shouldn't go out to play."

Bibi Dong trembled slightly: "That...no...that won't do."

Bibi Dong's face flushed red, her lips turned slightly pale, and she was still shaken.

"Let's go out and have some fun."

"OK then."

Su Ze respected Bibi Dong's wishes.

Bibi Dong stood on the bed and began to dress, holding onto Su Ze's shoulders to steady herself, which made Su Ze laugh.

Bibi Dong looked resentful:

"You're still laughing? It's all your fault!"

"Okay, okay, it's my fault, I promise I'll change and be gentler from now on, okay?"

Su Ze admitted his mistake and corrected it; he's a good man!

Half an hour later.

Soto, a major city.

The pace of life in this city is relatively fast. As mentioned earlier, Soto City is a major grain-producing province and was once home to a large army of the Heavenly Dou Royal Army. Therefore, Soto City holds a pivotal position in the entire Heavenly Dou Empire.

The central street is lined with a dazzling array of shops, bustling with activity and a vibrant atmosphere.

Bibi Dong brought Su Ze here and headed straight for the local branch of the Spirit Hall.

Bibi Dong's divine sense did not misjudge; the marine breeding base of You Ran Manor was located in the coastal area of ​​the Barak Kingdom.

In Soto City, there is a secondary main hall of the Spirit Hall, second only to the main hall of the Spirit Hall.

Although Soto City is the main city, it is not the main administrative city of the empire, so it was originally set up as a three-tiered branch palace.

I've heard that Bibi Dong is a major grain-producing province with countless fertile fields and vast plains that are an excellent place to nurture life.

She then waved her hand and upgraded the level 3 main powerhouse of Soto City to a level 2 main temple.

It's important to understand that there's a world of difference between the second-level and third-level main halls of the Spirit Hall.

The second-level main hall is the administrative hall of the Spirit Hall, where the hall master is directly appointed by a titled Douluo and governs the city-state.

The highest-ranking leaders of the third-level main halls are only at the Soul Douluo realm, and in some remote areas they are even taken over by Soul Saints and Soul Emperors, which is of a lower level.

As for why...

Yes, that's exactly why she insisted on bringing Su Ze here.

The two walked through the streets, listening to the conversations of passersby:

"Have you heard? I heard that the Spirit Hall has sent a lot of Spirit Masters here and taken over our fields in the east and west."

"Rob us?"

"Of course it's not robbery, it's harvesting the fields!"

"What do you mean?"

"You know about demolition compensation, right?"

"I know, demolishing a house means a lifetime of wealth."

"The harvest from this field is the same. For every acre of land, you'll get a subsidy of 500 gold soul coins. Think about it yourself, is it worth it or not?"

"Five hundred gold soul coins per mu? My God, I couldn't earn that much even if I farmed for a lifetime!"

On the road to Douluo Continent, farmers are still a low-income group, and the net income from one acre of land per year will not exceed five gold soul coins.

Or rather, five gold soul coins is considered a high amount.

Even a hundred years of hard work wouldn't earn you five hundred gold soul coins.

Now, all they need to do is give up their land to earn more wealth than they would have earned in a hundred years.

Only a fool wouldn't do that!

"Why didn't you say so sooner! Chao! I have to hurry home to sell the land!"

"What's the rush? The Spirit Hall has been collecting them all along, it won't make a difference in a little while. Sigh... wait for me, I have more than ten acres of land at home! That's five thousand gold spirit coins, enough to live comfortably for the rest of my life!"

According to Su Ze's estimate, one gold soul coin is roughly equivalent to two thousand yuan, so five thousand coins would be ten million yuan, which is indeed enough for an ordinary resident to live on for a lifetime.

With Su Ze's hearing, he could naturally hear their whispers.

For a moment, Su Ze's emotions were somewhat complicated.

Why did he panic when he heard that the Spirit Hall was taking so much land?

I had a bad feeling about this.

Next, Bibi Dong arrived at the branch hall, where a titled Douluo personally came out to greet her, named Serpent Spear.

When Serpent Spear saw Su Ze, he sized him up for a long time.

I was incredibly surprised:

"Is this the one that Elder Ghost and His Holiness the Pope revere?"

"He does look rather handsome. But his clothes are quite ordinary; the fabric looks very plain. Could there be something more to it?"

"This kid's aura is quite steady."

Serpent Spear Douluo thought to himself.

But on the surface, they dared not show the slightest disrespect.

After all, Her Holiness the Pope and the Ghost's strength have advanced by leaps and bounds, enabling them to subdue two great empires so quickly and complete the unification. She is truly the First Empress, and who would dare to disobey her?

Serpent Spear understood Bibi Dong's purpose and immediately bowed and led her southeast.

Where are we going?

This back-and-forth only confused Su Ze more.

Why didn't they even have a chance to explore the city before heading straight out again? What are they planning to do?

However, to be fair, the floors in Soto were also poorly constructed and very fragile.

Su Ze accidentally stomped his foot when he came out.

He then stomped on and broke several floor tiles.

Also, this Serpent Spear Douluo walks really slowly.

This brought Su Ze back to the state he was in before when he led Ghost and the others to find Yu Xiaogang.

"Is everything settled in?"

After about two incense sticks' worth of time, they arrived at a relatively high place. There was a gate there, and several Soul Masters were guarding the entrance.

Serpent Spear Douluo replied, "Your Holiness, rest assured, everything is ready and we are waiting for your return."

Bibi Dong nodded: "That's good."

Immediately, Bibi Dong Niu Tou looked at Su Ze and said, "Brother Su Ze, let's go in."

"Dong'er, what exactly do you want to do?"

Su Ze voiced his question, but how 'clever' was he?

I already had some guesses in my mind.

"Of course, we'll keep our promise!"

Bibi Dong stood on the plateau with Bibi Dong, where a vast expanse stretched before them, with white clouds drifting lazily by and terraced fields below in distinct layers.

The terraced fields, like chains and belts, encircle the mountain peaks like giant snails. Some are like giant fans, half-folded and half-open, diagonally stacked into narrow fans; others are like a sky mirror that has been divided and then inlaid into fragments of various patterns in layers.

Within this vast expanse, winding paths meander through the undulating terraced fields, appearing as thin ropes, while the Zhuang folk songs of Longji, lingering above them, drift like wisps of smoke; the Zhuang "malan" houses, reflected in the water and caressed by the clouds, are ethereal and like a fairy palace!

From the rushing river valleys to the cloud-shrouded mountain peaks, from the lush forest edges to the steep cliffs, wherever there is soil, terraced fields have been carved out. Reaching a vertical height of five or six miles and extending horizontally for another five or six miles, the undulating and towering mountains, winding like a series of ladders ascending to the blue sky, resemble enormous abstract paintings between heaven and earth.

This scene is absolutely beautiful!

It's simply a paradise for farmers!

Is it beautiful?

Bibi Dong smiled radiantly, looking incredibly beautiful and happy.

"Beautiful, very beautiful, truly beautiful."

Even Su Ze sighed repeatedly.

Clearly, these terraced fields were not formed naturally. Instead, Bibi Dong acquired the land from the farmers and then, taking advantage of the local terrain, transplanted hills and rivers to create this breathtakingly beautiful landscape.
