Douluo Dragon King: Doumu's Blessing, I Am the Star Lord

"Our soul bones are full of treasures, don't underestimate our resources." Panlong Jade Seal's voice carried a hint of dissatisfaction at being looked down upon.

Once subcutaneous fat storage reaches its limit, adding any more will result in a large stomach, which is bad for your health!

The clear, melodious voice of the Sun and Moon Celestial Instrument rang out at the opportune moment, providing the most reliable answer: "We will help you condense the prototype of the soul core that the soul master speaks of in your dantian and sea of ​​spirit."

The three parties' thoughts converged in an instant, and the person and the two tools immediately reached a consensus and took action.

"By the way, do you have any rare and precious materials that you prepared in advance for condensing your soul core?" Panlong Jade Seal suddenly spoke up, with a hint of mischief. "At such a crucial moment, don't hide your good stuff. Take it out and use it."

Upon hearing this, Qian Gu Xing Ci rummaged through his storage soul tool and took out two items: a Star Luo Spirit Pearl that flowed with the power of vast stars, and a Golden Dragon King's Blood Crystal that contained a scorching golden-red luster.

Using these two treasures as a foundation, forge the prototype of the dual soul core!

Chapter 165 Breaking Through Worldly Boundaries!

The next instant, the Panlong Jade Seal released a dazzling golden light, carrying the Star Luo Spirit Pearl towards the upper dantian between the eyebrows of Qian Gu Xing Ci.

The radiant glow of the sun and moon, along with the scalding hot Qi and Blood Dragon Crystal, arrived at his lower dantian.

The Three Soul Core system demands extremely high physical strength. Throughout history, very few have successfully created a pure Yin-Yang complementary dual soul core. Only Emperor Tian, ​​relying on the powerful physique of the dragon race, achieved it, while the Evil Emperor accomplished it through spiritual power infinitely close to divine consciousness. Even the Spirit Ice Douluo, with a multitude of ferocious beasts and a single dragon core, managed to create a Yin-Yang complementary dual soul core.

The Blue Silver Emperor's head soul bone and the Light and Dark Dragon King's torso bone, two divine-level soul bones, perfectly achieve two advantages.

The power of the Sun and Moon Celestial Instrument and the Panlong Jade Seal, after transformation, can be said to be perfectly suited to the Ancient Star Chronicles, and they thrived in the construction of the prototype of the Soul Core.

In fact, Qian Gu Xing Ci did not plan to condense the second soul core early on. At this time, his blood strength and spiritual power were far from meeting his expectations. In his plan, the moment the Ziwei spiritual soul core and the Tianshi blood blood soul core were formed would be the opportunity for his spiritual power to break through to the Divine Origin Realm and for his physical body to break through to the God level.

Building a prototype in advance does not conflict with his ideas. In the future, he only needs to continuously pour the corresponding power into the prototype, and when the time is right, it can be fully formed in one step, and the difficulty of cultivation will be reduced by more than half!

Within the space between the eyebrows and in the dantian, the Star Luo Spirit Pearl and the Qi and Blood Dragon Crystal trembled simultaneously, transforming into a state of coexistence of Qi and liquid, flowing along the meridians and forming a funnel-shaped vortex.

Mysterious purple lines slowly spread upwards from his chest, crawling across his neck and finally imprinting themselves on his fair cheeks, shimmering with starlight, mysterious and majestic. Below his chest, however, was a completely different scene: golden-red blood and qi lines, like surging magma, pulsated slowly beneath his skin, containing terrifying power.

As the power merged, the vortex gradually solidified, and a crisp buzzing sound rang out. A ring of orange-gold and a ring of silver-white soul rings slowly nested onto the Ancient Star Decree and the Coiling Dragon Staff.

Fourteen terrifying spirit rings give the world a little shock!

Qian Gu Xing Ci looked at the celestial globe and jade seal that appeared on his shoulder, and he felt that he should create a soul skill called Night Demon Sphere.

"Doesn't A-Yin like purple?" Riyue Tianyi was quite puzzled as to why Panlong Yuyin customized the soul ring color to the orange-gold color commonly seen by ferocious beasts.

The dragon-shaped jade seal took on a human form, its hand gesture forming the number eight. It lowered its head and tapped its fingers, saying, "Since the celestial instrument chose the color of the moon, shouldn't I make up for the sun that you're missing?"

Ugh, licking the seal!

Noticing Qian Gu Xing Ci's expression, Panlong Jade Seal changed its target and prepared to unleash its attack: "Why isn't the empty dantian you left connected? I can't achieve yin-yang complementarity because of you between me and Tianyi!"

Do they... have yang?

The Panlong Staff slowly dissipated, and a vein engraved with intricate patterns took shape across Qian Gu Xing Ci's body. One end plunged into the sea of ​​consciousness between his eyebrows, connecting with the nascent Ziwei Soul Core forged by the Star Luo Spirit Pearl, while the other end went straight in, firmly anchoring to his lower abdomen, and connecting with the nascent Tian Shi Soul Core condensed by the Qi and Blood Dragon Crystal.

Your own direct train – you deserve it!

Panlong Jade Seal's expression changed in an instant, and he was extremely excited: "Well done! That's exactly what we wanted—unique and special!"

This meridian was formed from the Panlong Staff. She is the soul of the Panlong Staff. In other words, this long, narrow object is hers, a part of her!

Hehehe, the biggest worldly problem is solved, my dear girl, come to my bowl...

Ignoring the two idiots for the time being, the Ancient Star Farewell, now fully loaded with a covered tarpaulin, exited the Soul Tower.

Upon exiting, Qian Gu Xing Ci witnessed the unanimous praise from the three generations—old, middle-aged, and young—for simultaneously contracting two ferocious beast spirits, a first on the continent!

After the congratulations, the crowd was dispersed, leaving only the Three Limits of Eternity, Xia Zheng Leng, Qian Gu Zhang Ting, Gu Yue, and Na'er.

"Xingci, now that you've also broken through, I have some arrangements to make."

The strategist's suggestion to bid farewell to the eternal stars was met with utmost respect.

With his hands behind his back, Qian Gu Dongfeng said solemnly, "The patriarch of the Yuanen clan is a Limit Douluo, but there must be some conflict or misunderstanding between them and Yuanen Yehui. Yuanen Yehui doesn't really want to go back, and Zhen Tian Douluo also said that the time is not right. The arrival of the Demon Plane is still some distance away. I think you can join the army... to familiarize yourself with the process and accumulate experience in advance."

"Okay, let's get familiar with the Blood God Legion as soon as possible. The abyssal creatures are also a great buffet."

Qian Gu Dongfeng turned to Gu Yue and Na'er and asked, "Do you have this intention?"

"I plan to focus on the research of soul spirits. There is still room for improvement in the strength of the artificial soul spirits created a hundred years ago," said Gu Yue, who was twirling her hair with her fingers.

After the showdown, Qian Gu Xing Ci helped the ferocious beasts inhabit the Spirit Pagoda and aided Gu Yue in her research on artificial soul spirits. The soul beasts themselves knew best, and within just a few months, they had already produced results.

The grand promises made earlier cannot be made too ambitiously. While the creation of a small plane by gods has Electrolux as a model, it is not a big problem for god-level powerhouses to achieve this, but the success rate of changing the underlying logic of cultivation is slim.

Qian Gu Xing Ci proposed another condition: he hoped that Di Tian and others could help humanity research artificial soul spirits. If the highest level could reach 100,000 years, even if the soul beasts left, the soul master system would not be affected.

"I want to go with Xingci!" Na'er said excitedly. Gu Yue had voluntarily withdrawn, and this was a golden opportunity that wouldn't come again. She wanted to seize this chance to advance!

"Not yet. You completed your bloodline sublimation in Dragon Valley, even replacing the Thorn Dragon Emperor's Soul Bone with a True Dragon Soul Bone, but your cultivation level is only Soul Emperor. The Blood God Legion is a special case; while their rank increases quickly, it's not the first choice for low-level Soul Masters." Qian Gu Dongfeng explained the pros and cons to him. It's not suitable to put a genius who hasn't fully matured into that role early. It's the right way to go after becoming a Limit Douluo.

Na'er's face fell. Her plan had failed before it even began, and with Qian Gu Dong Feng's explicit refusal, she knew she couldn't go.

“There is another place that is more suitable for you: the Western Legion. The commander there has a very close relationship with our Spirit Pagoda. With this relationship, you will develop very well there,” Qian Gu Dongfeng suggested.

"Also... Zhangting, you and Xingci will go to the Blood God Legion for training."

Upon breaking through to the Title Douluo level, Qian Gu Zhangting felt incredibly powerful and agreed without hesitation. He then asked, "Grandpa, are we planning to build the Eight Great Legions?"

"Watch your words. If you accuse us of plotting against the Legion, the Spirit Tower will be in deep trouble. Shrek Academy has become corrupt step by step, incurring the wrath of both heaven and man. If you say these words, it won't be long before Shrek Academy suffers the same fate as us."

Qian Gu Dongfeng's eyes turned cold as he glared at Qian Gu Zhangting before continuing, "Our relationship with the Western Legion is already incredibly close to the Federation's bottom line, and that's only on the premise that the Spirit Pagoda is keeping its course."

Many of the new recruits are troublemakers, arrogant and hoping to replicate the exploits of Fierce Wolf Douluo, but they are all talk and no action. I want Na'er to help Old Dong curb the arrogance of his subordinates and at the same time do some preparatory work for some things to come.

"As for the Blood God Legion... I need you to try your best to gain some say in the matter."

Chapter 166 Fiery Basin, Sand Demon Insects, Frugal Household Management

The Blood God Legion differs from the other eight legions in its organizational structure, which is led by a commander and deputy commander. It also includes the Blood God Camp, which operates independently of the legions. Within the Blood God Camp, the nine Blood Gods wield significant power in decision-making.

"The current generation's bloodline leader is Cao Dezhi, the ruthless Douluo, the hall master of the Tang Sect's Douluo Hall, whose Limit Douluo cultivation surpasses that of Zhang Huanyun, the legion commander and Mirror Douluo."

Decisions within the Blood God Legion are made through joint consultation among multiple parties. The Spirit Pagoda holds two seats, placing it in the middle ranks, slightly inferior to the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy. I hope you will make this trip as a precaution.

It's not that Qian Gu Dong Feng (a nickname for a legendary figure) is incapable of fighting against adversity; it's just that at his peak, Yun Ming of Shrek Academy single-handedly overwhelmed them, making it a guaranteed defeat against a typhoon. Now, facing the abyss might also be an adversary, but it's also a platform to showcase intelligence!

“Hmm,” Qian Gu Xing Ci replied.

"Zhangting, use the three-word battle armor you prepared beforehand, and replace it after Xingci is forged. After that, pack your things. Your great-grandmother has some connections over there, and with Blood Four and Blood Seven combined, you won't suffer any losses," Qian Gu Dongfeng instructed Qian Gu Zhangting.

On the other side, Xia Zheng Leng chatted with Qian Gu Xing Ci about everyday matters.

"I contacted Yuxue beforehand. Listen carefully to her experience; the creatures of the abyss are extremely dangerous. We need to follow the plan arranged by Yuxue and the others over there..."

Qian Gu Dongfeng immediately pulled out two letters of recommendation. The Blood God Legion wholeheartedly approved of the Spirit Pagoda's practice of sending top geniuses in. Zhang Huanyun replied to Qian Gu Dongfeng's message instantly.

There's no point in saying more. Both of them are quite strong, and fighting is a way to accelerate their growth. After packing their things, they agreed to meet in front of the main gate.

Qian Gu Zhangting took out the black-grade mecha he had personally crafted. He devoted himself entirely to mecha manufacturing in order to create top-tier battle armor; soul tools and mechas were all his practice subjects.

Taking this opportunity, a black-level mech was created for personal use. Its interlocking lines resembled a roaring, angry dragon, sharp and fierce.

With their elders seeing them off, the two set off, with Qian Gu Zhangting taking the initiative to sit in the driver's seat, their destination the Blood God Legion.

Qian Gu Zhangting's car had the highest-level pass and looked very valuable. The journey was smooth, without any issues such as cutting in line or using ETC.

The Blood God Legion is stationed in the endless mountains of the far west, suppressing the abyss passage. The journey through the city is only a small part; the majority is in the desolate wilderness.

"Uncle, how much of the metal I asked you to forge is finished?" Qian Gu Zhangting asked.

The journey was long, and the two chatted idly.

"About one-third, I'll finish the rest when I have time during my military service."

Their journey traversed most of the Douluo Continent, and after traveling day and night, a desolate desert came into view.

"Is this the only route to the Fire Basin according to the navigation?" The Federation's navigation technology is advanced, and it can easily determine directions even in the desert.

The mecha's parts clicked together as it transformed. The sharply styled, dragon-like racing car transformed, its heavy sand-resistant off-road armor taking over layers, and its wide, grippy tires plunged deep into the desert.

As far as the eye could see, there was only an endless desert. The hot wind carried sand and gravel that pelted against the mecha's shell with a crackling sound. The air was distorted and deformed by the high temperature of the ground. Who would come to the desert to suffer for no reason? The environment was deathly silent, with only the roar of the mecha's engine echoing in the wilderness.

The sand beneath the car suddenly trembled violently!

Dozens of menacing sand pillars shot into the sky, accompanied by the ear-piercing sound of shells rubbing together. More than ten insect-like soul beasts, each over thirty meters long, suddenly burst out from the ground, their mouths filled with sharp teeth opening and dripping highly corrosive, foul-smelling acid.

Sand worms inhabit deserts and erode oases.

"A ten-thousand-year-old soul beast? Perfect timing!" Qian Gu Zhangting's eyes flashed, and he raised his hand to press the escape pod button to act as an ejection device.

The hatch burst open, and his figure shot into the air like an arrow, then descended from the sky!

Holding the gleaming white Panlong Staff in his palm, nine spirit rings rose up. The top-tier spirit ring combination of six black and three red was particularly eye-catching in the dim yellow sand curtain. The newly promoted Panlong Douluo ushered in his first real battle.

With an indomitable and domineering aura, the coiled dragon staff in his hand was activated. The first soul skill was lit up, and the white staff shadow swept out like a dragon emerging from the sea, meeting the spraying acid.

The corrosive liquid was shattered and vaporized by the powerful force of the stick. Before the two ancient sand demons at the front could react, their heads were smashed by the stick, and their foul-smelling blood splattered onto the sand.

The insect-type soul beasts lived in groups and were united. Upon seeing this, the remaining sand demon insects were immediately enraged and twisted their huge bodies to surround and kill Qian Gu Zhangting from all directions. Sandstorms, like whales spouting water columns, kept coming from the ground.

With a single, ethereal gesture, Qian Gu Xing Ci unleashed an invisible force that transformed into an impenetrable net, enveloping the entire desolate battlefield.

All the sand demon worms that rushed forward were pinned in mid-air by an invisible force. Their indestructible, thick carapaces cracked under the pressure, twisting and roaring.

"Uncle, leave the rest to me!" Qian Gu Zhangting was in the heat of battle, wielding his dragon-patterned staff with domineering and fierce power. Wherever the staff struck, the shells of the sand demon worms shattered one after another, and their shrill screams rang out one after another. In just a few breaths, he had killed all the remaining dozen or so ten-thousand-year-old sand demon worms.

Deep black, ten-thousand-year-old soul rings slowly rose from the corpse of the Sand Demon Worm, a rare and unusual color in the desert.

Qian Gu Xing Ci took out a specially made soul ring sealing device, collected all the scattered ten-thousand-year soul rings, erased the soul master aura on them, and made them available for anyone to absorb.

One should be thrifty and manage one's household well. The quality of the Sand Demon Worm is barely above average, and there will always be a Soul Master who is suitable for it.

The Soul Ring Sealing Device was born at the wrong time. Such products existed ten thousand years ago, and the Soul Ring trade was widespread. However, enemies came from the sky, and the appearance of spirits gradually replaced Soul Rings, making the Soul Ring Sealing Device a niche product.

Crossing the fiery basin, the scorching heat was quickly replaced by a biting cold. The snow-capped mountains stretched endlessly, the wind howled, and the layered peaks seemed to extend to the ends of the earth.

"Before we left, Grandpa specifically mentioned that the Blood God Legion has a rule: when climbing the Endless Mountains, one must not use soul power or external objects," Qian Gu Zhangting reminded him.

"Let's hurry." Qian Gu Xing Ci stepped forward first, his steps light and not sinking into the snow.

Combat technique of the user: Treading on snow without leaving a trace.

Climbing with their physical bodies was undoubtedly a perfect match for Qian Gu Xing Ci, and Qian Gu Zhang Ting was a titled Douluo with top-tier soul rings and soul bones. The cold and terrible road conditions did not affect their speed at all.

Real-life rock climbing is nothing more than repetitive pull-ups, hooking, exerting force, moving steps, and repeating the cycle.

Upon reaching a steep cliff, Qian Gu Xing Ci glanced sideways and noticed that his nephew was still a bit slow. He grabbed his arm and swung him upwards with force, propelling him straight to the summit.
