Douluo Continent: Starting with controlling Ning Rongrong and establishing the Holy Cult

"He is the Holy God. That's right, Xue Qinghe is someone I observed on the continent who, like you, was chosen by him."

"Just like me..."

Ning Rongrong was momentarily stunned.

She seemed disappointed that she wasn't the only one chosen by the Holy Spirit.

It also seemed that they were puzzled by the other party's actions.

The memory of the Holy Spirit's departure not long ago flashed through my mind.

Leaving wasn't because I was tired, but because—

Are you going to someone else's place?

Very unwilling.

She struggled for a moment, then spoke again:

"Who was chosen first, him or me? Besides the two of us, were there any others?"

Gu Yuena was taken aback, clearly not expecting Ning Rongrong to ask such a question.

However, she didn't dwell on it too much, as if this was how it should be.

"You were chosen first, and from what I've observed, there are only the two of you now."

"That's good."

Ning Rongrong felt relieved at first, but then suddenly changed the subject.

"No... If I am the chosen one, then why is the Holy Spirit... is he abandoning me?"

Gu Yuena sighed.

Upon learning that someone with whom you once had a decent relationship suddenly intends to harm you, it's inevitable to feel a sense of "betrayal."

After carefully considering her words, she shook her head and began:

"Actually, that's not the case. He didn't abandon you, otherwise he wouldn't have come here at all. He probably came to give you a scroll to help you improve your strength, but..."

Gu Yuena didn't finish speaking.

She didn't know what to say next.

He just didn't expect you to be so upset.

So, isn't that just blaming Ning Rongrong for being too weak...?

Just looking for some fun?

Although, based on her understanding of the Holy One, the possibility of doing so was extremely high, what if she was wrong? Wouldn't that be just making unfounded speculations?

Fortunately, Ning Rongrong didn't need Gu Yuena to finish speaking; she immediately understood the meaning.

Contrary to Gu Yuena's expectations, she did not fall into self-blame; instead, she appeared relieved and relaxed.

"They didn't abandon me, haha—that's good! It must be because I'm too weak that I made such a blunder, right? Sigh, I understand why they forced the scroll on me."

"The Holy One must be very tired, and I was too incompetent to recognize his identity. In order to improve my strength, he had no choice but to force the scroll on me, and I was too weak to handle it. Sigh, the Holy One really went to great lengths!"

Ning Rongrong quickly convinced herself and then made a self-deprecating remark.

"actually……"

Gu Yuena hesitated for a moment, then added,

"You're not really that bad."

Chapter 122 Rest, then head to the Wind Sword Sect

"Two Holy Spirit scrolls containing immense energy were opened simultaneously without his guidance. The violent energy instantly surged into your body and meridians, which were not yet at the corresponding level, far exceeding the limits you could channel. Your reaction is perfectly normal."

"There is a coincidence to why the Holy God did this, since he himself just casually channels this kind of power."

“Normally, this kind of Holy Spirit Scroll requires at least a Soul King to absorb the soul power within it. The first one you absorbed probably requires a Soul Emperor to absorb it. If you absorb two at the same time, you would need a Soul Saint to absorb them safely.”

"Huh?"

Ning Rongrong never expected such a thing to happen.

But she immediately realized something was wrong.

"That doesn't seem right. The first Holy Spirit Cult elder I met was either a Soul Venerable or a Soul Sect Master, but definitely not a Soul King. However, he had used the Holy Spirit Scroll, and when I arrived, he didn't seem to be in any trouble."

"It is a treasure of the Holy Spirit Church."

Gu Yuena continued to explain that after taking Huyan Zhen's body, she followed the clues and found a lot of information about the Holy Spirit Cult. At this moment, her understanding of the Holy Spirit Cult was no less than Ning Rongrong's.

“The original elders of the Holy Spirit Cult all possessed a treasure. Some of these treasures were passed down, while others were not. What you are referring to should be the Ninth Elder. The treasure he possessed was something called a Directional Soul Seal, which was used to awaken a second martial soul. It was this Directional Soul Seal that helped him absorb the Holy Spirit Scroll without suffering any harm.”

"treasure?"

Ning Rongrong suddenly couldn't understand.

However, she quickly thought of the resurrection item.

"The Eighth Elder's resurrection item can be considered a treasure, right?"

Gu Yuena nodded:

"Forget it."

"What is the Seventh Elder's treasure?"

Ning Rongrong was a little curious.

She still didn't know what the Seventh Elder's treasure was.

After all, she had never seen anything like it before.

"It's the method for making the Holy Spirit Pill."

……

As soon as Gu Yuena finished speaking, the two fell into silence.

"what?"

Ning Rongrong remained silent for about a minute before speaking with a puzzled expression.

How to make the Holy Spirit Pill?

That's great!

The Holy God always fed his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda with Holy Spirit Pills, which reversed two of its soul skills, and now those two soul skills are terrifyingly powerful.

Unfortunately... this thing wasn't passed down.

Otherwise, she would have to create at least 100 of them and reverse all of her soul skills.

but……

Was it really not passed down?

Ning Rongrong suddenly fell into deep thought.

Along with this, there's also the question of whether the Ninth Elder's directional soul imprint has been passed down.

She didn't know why, but she always had a feeling that both of these things still existed in the world.

"Well then, let's leave the topic of treasures here for now. I mentioned earlier that absorbing the soul power of the Holy Spirit Scroll is difficult, and it was just a coincidence. But if something like this happens again in the future, don't worry. Because I'll always be here for you."

Gu Yuena said.

"Ok?"

Ning Rongrong began to have doubts again.

"What do you mean by 'always been here'? Speaking of which, Your Highness, why did you come to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School this time?"

"The answer is that I have been secretly observing you all along. Firstly, to test whether you meet the standards of the Holy God's chosen one, and secondly, to observe the Holy God's control over you. From the very first moment I observed you... although I may have told you that I only observed you in the Star Dou Great Forest, that was actually also a test. I have been watching you ever since you underwent your second Holy Maiden Ceremony, which is the first Holy Maiden Ceremony you were exposed to."

"This time, of course, it was because I sensed you might be in danger that I came to check on you."

Gu Yuena said.

Is that all?

Ning Rongrong always felt that Gu Yuena was hiding something from her.

Did you come over as soon as you sensed she was in danger?

She felt something was off.

Faced with Ning Rongrong's questioning, Gu Yuena did not want to explain.

After all, she couldn't tell the other party that she had been covering for them from the very beginning, dealing with countless pieces of evidence she had left behind, or people who wanted to harm her.

The reasons for doing these things were something I absolutely couldn't tell her.

In the end, I just made up a sentence on the spot:

"This is also the Holy One's intention."

"Oh..." Ning Rongrong looked like she suddenly understood.

Gu Yuena thought to herself that this trick was really effective, and then interrupted her to prevent Ning Rongrong from asking any more difficult questions:

"And there's no need to delve too deeply into his thoughts. His logic sometimes defies common sense. Overthinking it will only cause more trouble."

She stood up.

"You have just experienced a surge of soul power, and your meridians still need to be nurtured. Now you only need to do one thing."

His purple eyes fell on Ning Rongrong's slightly pale face, his tone leaving no room for argument.

"have a good rest."

"rest……"

Ning Rongrong repeated softly.

Although the excruciating pain in her body had subsided, she still felt a sluggish and sore sensation when circulating her soul power.

She definitely needs rest.
