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

He didn't know much about the Holy Spirit Church, but after this encounter, he felt that the Holy Spirit Church's practices were absolutely correct.

Regardless of what happened before, since the Holy Spirit Cult and the Spirit Hall became enemies, the Holy Spirit Cult has not let go of its hatred, but has been secretly accumulating strength.

This is the kind of development he aspires to for the Haotian Sect!

What gives the Spirit Hall the right to do this?

“I can tell that you are different from those Haotian Sect disciples.”

"Your fighting spirit hasn't disappeared."

“You still harbor hatred for the Spirit Hall in your heart.”

"Why not join us? The Holy Spirit Cult will help you take revenge."

"With the help of our Holy Spirit Cult's technology, your strength will increase significantly, and revenge will be much easier."

These words were spoken.

A crazy idea began to grow in the mind of Blazing Sun Douluo.

Join the Holy Spirit Cult.

A voice in his head kept urging him to join the Holy Spirit Cult.

The cult leader extended his hand, which was covered by a black glove, seemingly wanting to form a cooperation with Lieyang Douluo.

Under the influence of the voice in his mind, Lieyang Douluo couldn't help but raise his hand.

—Want to join?

The Fiery Sun Douluo wasn't entirely certain.

My hand remained half-raised like that for quite some time.

In the end, Lieyang Douluo shook his head.

“I am delighted by your ideas. It is rare to encounter something that makes me happy. I will not report what is happening here.”

"However, I cannot betray the Haotian Sect."

"If you were to kill me for this, I would have no complaints."

After he finished speaking, he stared intently at the other person.

The Haotian Hammer materializes, held in the hand, vibrating slightly.

He was ready to fight back!

However, the cult leader's reaction still exceeded his expectations.

The cult leader did not make a move; in fact, his hand remained raised.

Then, she began to explain:

"I am not asking you to betray the Haotian Sect. The rules of the Holy Spirit Sect are not as rigid as you think. Of course, I will not ask you to do anything that is detrimental to the Haotian Sect."

"On the contrary, I will help you get those guys from the Haotian Sect to 'regain their fighting spirit'."

"To regain one's fighting spirit?"

“Yes. My Holy Spirit Cult possesses a treasure that can subtly awaken the fighting spirit within people. If you join the Holy Spirit Cult and become an elder, then you can obtain that treasure…”

"You want them to regain their fighting spirit, don't you?"

The Fiery Sun Douluo was moved once again.

To regain his fighting spirit and then take revenge on the Spirit Hall—that's exactly what he wants.

He raised his hand again...

"Power... I need power! Power enough to overturn everything, to restore the fighting spirit of the Clear Sky Sect, and to exact revenge on the Spirit Hall! What the sect dares not do, I dare! What the sect has given up, I will never give up!"

"This sect is sick, so I will cure it!"

He didn't hesitate for long.

In the end, their hands clasped together.

"Welcome, Fourth Elder of the Holy Spirit Cult."

-

Haotian Sect, Martial Arts Arena.

afternoon.

In the center of the training ground, crimson-gold flames rolled and rose as if they were real.

Tang Lie, the Seventh Elder of the Clear Sky Sect, wields a massive fire-attribute Clear Sky Hammer that unleashes a scorching storm with every swing.

However, the flames enveloping the hammer were no longer pure gold and red; deep within its core, a faint, imperceptible darkness emanated.

"drink!"

With a roar, Tang Lie unleashed the Blazing Sun Hammer.

boom--

A deafening roar erupted, accompanied by blinding flashes of light. The iron stake was instantly dented, its surface turning crimson red, and it even began to melt and drip molten iron.

A violent shockwave, carrying intense heat, swept outwards, causing the robes of the disciples watching the battle to flutter wildly and their cheeks to sting. They had no choice but to squint and use their soul power to resist.

"Did you see that?"

Tang Lie sheathed his hammer and stood upright, his voice booming, carrying a chilling, burning fighting spirit.

"This is power! The power of the Clear Sky Hammer should be this domineering, this unstoppable! Hesitation and timidity will only cause our hammer to rust and our spines to bend!"

His eyes were sharp as he scanned a group of young and strong sect disciples on the sidelines.

These disciples are the ones he has been focusing on "guiding" recently.

At this moment, their eyes were burning with fervor, their breathing was heavy, and their chests heaved violently, as if they had been completely ignited by Tang Lie's violent aura and words.

"Elder, you are mighty!" a disciple couldn't help but shout excitedly.

"This power... is too strong! I want to be like Elder Lieyang!"

Another disciple's eyes gleamed with an almost fanatical fire.

"Yes! This is how the Haotian Sect should be! Smash all enemies in our way!"

A chorus of agreement rose and fell, their fighting spirit soaring to the heavens.

On the sidelines, several sect elders who were watching nodded slightly, their faces showing satisfaction.

One of the white-bearded elders stroked his beard and laughed:

"Elder Lieyang's cultivation seems to have improved again recently. This power of fire is more domineering and intense than before, and it faintly reveals a... hmm, the sharpness of breaking and rebuilding? It seems that he has gained new insights."

Another elder nodded in agreement:

"Indeed, this momentum can further inspire the younger generation. The sect has been dormant for too long and truly needs this kind of vigor. Elder Lieyang's actions are well-intentioned."

Tang Lie listened to his colleagues' praise, but he couldn't feel happy.

Courage? Sharpness?

Ha... a bunch of old guys whose claws have been worn down by peace, what do you know about real courage?

Just then!

"Report—"

A sharp shout shattered the heated and passionate atmosphere of the training ground.

A sect disciple, looking panicked, practically scrambled into the arena, his voice trembling with disbelief:

"Sect...Sect Master! Elders! Outside the mountain gate...Tang Hao! It's Tang Hao! He...he's back! And he's with a young boy!"

"what?"

"Tang Hao?"

"Does he dare to come back?"

The entire training ground erupted in chaos!

The disciples' fervor was replaced by astonishment, and the elders' expressions also changed drastically.

The smugness in Tang Lie's eyes instantly turned into anger!

"Tang—Hao—!"

A roar filled with more than a decade of blood feud erupted from Tang Lie's chest.

The crimson-gold Haotian Hammer in his hand suddenly erupted with a terrifying heat wave, and his figure transformed into a furious streak of light, rushing straight towards the mountain gate!

Almost at the same moment he charged out, another powerful and steady aura arrived first, instantly blocking his path.

"Seventh Elder! Stop!"

Tang Xiao's burly body blocked his way, while the phantom of the Clear Sky Hammer floated behind him, its powerful soul force effectively suppressing Tang Lie's violent charge.

He looked at Tang Lie, whose eyes were almost red with hatred, with a complicated expression, and said in a deep voice:

"Hold your hand! Find out the reason first!"

"Reason? Hahahaha!"

Tang Lie, enraged, laughed instead, and pointed his hammer at the mountain gate.

"He killed my son, causing our sect to be disgraced and closed for over a decade! This blood feud is the greatest reason for our demise! Sect Master Tang Xiao, are you going to stop me from avenging my son and cleaning up the sect's mess?"

Tang Xiao frowned:

"He is, after all, a member of our sect, and moreover... he brought back... most likely his child! This matter concerns the sect's reputation and clan rules; how can you act on your own? We'll discuss everything after you've entered the sect and clarified the situation! Step aside!"

Tang Lie's chest heaved violently, his eyes fixed on Tang Xiao, then looked past him, and finally his gaze returned to Tang Xiao.

Ha, that's really impressive. You're going to keep protecting him, let's see how long you can keep it up.

Tang Lie thought to himself.
