Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Ten Ferocious Heavenly Horned Ant

"Fine, I won't call. It's a waste of my phone bill."

The pretty policewoman readily agreed, but the next morning she called again, waking Dongqing up just as he had fallen asleep after playing games all night.

No joke.

Dongqing originally planned to go to the Juxia City Police Department for an interview, as a way of fulfilling the graduation promise he made to Policewoman Qilin.

Unfortunately, half a month later, when he woke up from his dream, he unexpectedly found himself turned into a baby and arrived in another world, a magical alien world with martial spirits.

Now, he and she are separated by an endless sea of ​​chaos, several chaotic bubbles apart, each of which is a multiverse and a vast world.

The Primordial Great World is thirteen chaotic bubbles away from the Perfect Great World, and five chaotic bubbles away from the Earth's Great Universe.

Logically speaking, this is an insurmountable distance, a distance that mortal beings dare not even imagine, and a distance they can never reach in their lifetime.

But for Dongqing...

This distance, though seemingly far, is actually very close.

He possesses the Sky Shuttle, a treasure that can traverse the endless chaotic sea. Once he reaches the third stage of life, he can ride the Sky Shuttle and freely traverse the endless chaotic sea.

Moreover, in the myriad realms and endless starry seas, the flow of time varies across different worlds and universes.

It's possible that the day Dongqing is able to return to Earth will be the very next second after he leaves.

[Detailed Explanation of the Endless Chaotic Sea]

The myriad realms, the endless sea of ​​stars, the boundless universe—all reside within the boundless sea of ​​chaos. Each chaotic bubble is a vast universe and a great world.

One vast universe contains countless parallel universes, and one great world contains numerous fantasy and cultivation worlds of all sizes.

Countless parallel universes make up a multiverse, or macrocosm, while countless cultivation worlds make up a great world, or the so-called great world.

The Perfect World encompasses all the worlds above the heavens, such as the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the Immortal Realm, the Sea of ​​Immortals, and other realms.

The Earth Universe encompasses all parallel universes that exist on Earth, such as the Super God Universe, various technological universes, and so on.

The Primordial World encompasses all fantasy worlds where cultivation exists, such as Battle Through the Heavens and Douluo Continent, and various other cultivation worlds.

[Detailed Explanation of Life Levels in the Endless Chaotic Sea]

The myriad realms and endless starry seas can be roughly divided into five levels of life.

[The first stage of life form begins at the Blood Transformation Realm and ends at the Venerable Realm. One can unleash divine light within the blood, thereby tempering the creation of heaven and earth and nourishing the physical body. A single swing of the arm can weigh at least 108,000 jin. The Venerable Realm is the strongest combat force in the mortal realm.]

[The second life form begins at the Divine Fire Realm and ends at the Supreme Realm. It involves igniting the divine fire and controlling the laws. The mere pressure from this form is enough to make lower beings unable to raise their heads, and these beings can generally live for millions of years or even longer.]

[The third stage of life form begins in the Immortal Realm and ends in the Immortal King Realm (the Immortal, the Long-lived, the Mortal Immortal). A single drop of blood can sustain one for several epochs, granting immortality, a physical body that is immortal, and a primordial spirit that is indestructible.]

Step Four... [Quasi-Immortal Emperor (Quasi-Saint)] [Truly immortal, with an indestructible physical body and an indestructible primordial spirit, extremely difficult to kill, and can only be slowly eroded by extremely special methods.]

Step Five... [Immortal Emperor (Sage)] [Cannot be observed, cannot be whispered, cannot be thought of; with a flick of the finger, one can destroy a realm; one can obscure the secrets of heaven; uttering one's true name will be perceived by them.]

Step Six... [Incomprehensible, unimaginable, incapable of death.]

......

Back to topic.

Outside Longxing City, in an unnamed village, outside the village.

On the cobblestone path, moss grew on the sides, and a large yellow dog lay on the ground sunbathing, looking extremely relaxed and content.

Suddenly.

Footsteps approached slowly from afar, and two figures quietly appeared before it.

The visitors were an adult and a child.

One of them was a beautiful woman in her late twenties dressed in ancient costume, and next to her was an adorable six-year-old boy.

Just as the big yellow dog was about to bare its teeth and bark wildly, forcibly driving away the two unfamiliar strangers...

The ancient-style beauty glanced indifferently at the big yellow dog, and an invisible pressure descended as if the sky were collapsing and the earth were splitting, causing its eyes to turn white and its consciousness to fall into a coma.

That is, at this time.

The woman in ancient costume turned to the young man beside her and said, "Dongqing, even if you can't take me all over the continent in these three months, you should at least take me to one of the major cities, instead of bringing me to wander around these remote villages."

This ancient beauty, with her unparalleled noble bearing, needs no introduction; she is none other than Gu Yuena, the Silver Dragon King. With a flick of her finger, she can suppress the Dragon Lord and the Lord of Soul Beasts, a peerless Douluo at the peak of level ninety-nine.

Her face was covered by a light purple veil, obscuring the area below the tip of her nose. Her fair and delicate features made her look like a beauty who had stepped out of a painting, captivating all who beheld her.

She wore a traditional Chinese style fitted cheongsam, but the slit was not high, only at the knee. However, the tight, rounded part below the waist still looked so captivating.

“Sister Na, I just wanted to show you the simple and kind-hearted people in the countryside. I grew up in Holy Soul Village myself, so I naturally understand that people in the countryside are very simple and kind,” Dong Qing said confidently.

"Simple and kind? Dongqing, are you serious? I seem to recall humans saying that 'bad people come from poor and remote places'?" A hint of doubt appeared on the pretty face of Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena.

"Nonsense, those are all low-probability events. Generally speaking, rural areas are more humane," Dong Qing retorted.

"Whatever you want, but for the next three months, you have to take me to all the major cities on the continent, or I won't let you leave." Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena reached out and rubbed Dongqing's little head.

"Sister Na, stop nagging. I can't really travel the whole continent with you, but for these three months, I'm your man. If you say go east, I definitely won't go west," Dong Qing patted his chest and assured him.

"From the moment you said those words, I knew you weren't used to the lifespan concept of your own long-lived species. Ten years or so, it'll all pass in a sleep, won't it?" Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena said nonchalantly.

"Sister Na, you say I'm a long-lived species with noble blood, like your dragon clan, and I accept that. After all, I know that the speed at which my power increases is somewhat abnormal. But if you're talking about how I can sleep through more than ten years in one go, I'm sorry, but right now, I really can't sleep through more than ten years in one go," Dong Qing said with a somewhat helpless tone.

Just now.

Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena suddenly spoke up: "Hey, stop talking, there's arguing over there. Dongqing, let's go eavesdrop and see. I really want to know how you humans argue, and whether you end up fighting until you're bleeding."

Her face was full of gossip, as if she was very interested in what was going to happen next. She reached out and pulled Dongqing towards the source of the argument.

"Sister Na, you're really bored. You just caused chaos in Longxing City, and now you're going to eavesdrop on other people's arguments. If I hadn't used the Martial Soul Branch Hall of Longxing City to quell the anger of those casino owners, there would probably be at least a dozen casino assassins secretly following us right now."

Dong Qing looked helpless, but did not resist, letting her hold his hand and jog along.

"They're nothing but ants, easily destroyed with a flick of the wrist," said Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena indifferently.

.......

Chapter 573, Simple and Kind-hearted?

"Slow down, don't rush!"

"Dongqing, are you scared? Don't be afraid. We have completely concealed our forms and presence. These mortal beings cannot detect our existence at all."

"I'm not afraid. What am I afraid of? Which eye of yours saw me afraid? I just don't understand your curiosity about the very act of humans arguing."

"Oh dear, didn't you say that yourself that people living in these places are simple and kind-hearted? I'd like to see just how kind they really are."

"Absolutely. Humans possess precious qualities like truth, goodness, and beauty. And I don't even need to look to know that the argument you just heard was just an ordinary family argument."

"Hmph, maybe so, but the contents might surprise you, you little rascal."

Done.

Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena held Dongqing's little hand and walked slowly toward a certain place.

A few minutes later.

Two figures, one large and one small, quietly appeared in the center of the village, bypassed the mud wall outside the Martial Soul Branch Hall, and arrived at the window of the fourth house from the left.

This is a decent-looking house with three rooms. Although it's not big, it's very cozy, with warm candlelight quietly seeping out from the windows.

And at this time.

Inside the cozy room, a commotion erupted as two elderly people, in their sixties or seventies, verbally abused a man in his thirties, a middle-aged man who appeared somewhat emaciated.

Beside this 30-year-old middle-aged man was a young man with good spirits, who looked to be in his early twenties. He was wearing the uniform of a guard from Longxing City, but he watched all of this unfold with a cold gaze.

Logically speaking...

This was just a normal family argument, and there was no need to pay attention to their words. After all, every family has its own problems, and outsiders getting involved only adds to the trouble.

But what's strange is...

The two elderly people weren't exactly dressed in gold and silver, but they were certainly wearing fine clothes and silks, while the young man, who looked to be in his early twenties, had a ruddy complexion.

Of the four people present.

Only the middle-aged man, who looked to be in his thirties and was sallow and thin, had a weathered face. He lowered his head and remained silent, silently enduring his parents' insults while helplessly rubbing his coarse linen clothes with his calloused hands.

"Look at the state you're in now! You can't earn money, you can't do anything right, all you do is laze around at home. What good are you anyway?"

It was a very old woman's voice, filled with disgust.

"Back then, we recommended you and your brother to General Wang, the garrison commander of Longxing City, and his personal guard, Lord Huo Minghua. We finally managed to get you and your brother into the garrison squad as captains, hoping you would bring honor to your family. But you actually angered Lord Huo Minghua for an ordinary woman."

It was a very old male voice, filled with anger and resentment.

"Brother, you're really confused. She's just an ordinary woman, an orphan and a widow with no powerful connections. It's her good fortune to be favored by Lord Huo Minghua. Why did you stand up for her? In the end, not only did you fail to help her, you were also kicked out of the city by Lord Huo Minghua."

It was a very young voice, filled with mockery and sarcasm.

"Mother, Father, Brother, I...I know I was wrong..."

It was a very honest voice, filled with pain, but without a trace of regret in its expression.

Some things are a matter of whether you do them or not, and besides, he didn't bring any disaster upon his parents or relatives.

.......

So far, four people have spoken, and the last one to speak was the sallow-faced, thin man who looked to be around thirty years old.

I don't know.

He was only twenty-five or twenty-six years old, a young man in the prime of his youth.

However, a few years ago, he had rashly stood up for a widow and her orphan, which displeased his superior, so he was forcibly expelled from the city defense force.

Now he works in the fields year-round, facing the loess soil and turning his back to the sky, which is why he looks so weathered.

"Wrong, wrong, wrong, all you know is wrong. If it weren't for your brother having some influence with Lord Huo Minghua, do you think you could have safely returned to the village?"

An aged female voice rang out, her tone filled with extreme disgust.

"Mother, I only received my salary after paying for six months..."

A weathered, middle-aged voice, with an extremely innocent tone.

"You unfilial son, how dare you talk back even now? It seems you haven't been doing enough work. Tomorrow, go up the mountain and cut down another five hundred catties of timber!"

An aged male voice rang out, its tone extremely angry.
