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

The story of Dream of the Red Chamber is fantastical, containing mythology, love, and the myriad aspects of life, but most women can only see the tragic fate of the Twelve Beauties of Jinling.

to this end.

They wallowed in self-pity, lamenting how bitter life is for women and blaming men for being heartless.

and so.

Dongqing regretted it. He regretted telling them the story of Dream of the Red Chamber. He got nothing in return, and ended up pleasing neither side, having to endure their resentful gazes.

However, this state did not last long. Once Donghuang Taiyi and Dongjun Yanfei came back to their senses from the story of Dream of the Red Chamber, they returned to their usual appearance.

"Xiangjun, this is Huangtian Houtu, one of the Yin-Yang Five Elements techniques. You can practice it. It doesn't need to be too profound. Just be able to barely integrate it with Xiangfuren's Yin-Yang Five Elements technique."

Donghuang Taiyi took out a yellowed book from under his wide black sleeves. It was written in seal script, one of the most popular scripts in the world at that time.

"I am proficient in the Five Elements..." Dong Qing opened his mouth.

“I know, so you only need to practice casually to become a thousand times stronger than others.” Donghuang Taiyi nodded.

"But why should I be with Lady Xiang..." Dongqing asked, puzzled.

"A single yin cannot produce life, nor can a single yang grow," Donghuang Taiyi said calmly.

Before Dongqing could ask any more questions.

Donghuang Taiyi continued, "Whether it's me, Dongjun, Yueshen, Xinghun and other protectors, or even the five elders of the Yin-Yang School, the Yin-Yang Five Elements Techniques we practice are all too extreme. Although the cultivation speed is fast, it is easy to go astray and become possessed by evil spirits."

"However, the earth nourishes all things. Among the many Yin-Yang and Five Elements techniques of the Yin-Yang School, only the Heaven and Earth Yin-Yang and Five Elements technique can make up for the drawbacks of cultivating Yin-Yang and Five Elements techniques and alleviate the risk of going into demonic possession due to excessive cultivation speed."

Speaking of it.

Donghuang Taiyi paused for a moment, glanced at Dongqing's face, and saw that he looked like he hadn't had enough. She then breathed a sigh of relief and continued with the following words.

"Actually, before you, I also found someone who could cultivate the Heaven and Earth, but his talent was worlds apart from yours."

"But he is the person with the best talent for cultivating the Heavenly Earth Cultivation technique that I could find. Even if I doubt whether he can protect Lady Xiang, I have no other choice."

“But you are different. You are already proficient in the Five Elements and can cultivate the Heaven and Earth as if you were in water. With your abilities, you will surely reach the true peak of the Heaven and Earth.”

"So, Dongqing, you are the person the Yin-Yang School has been waiting for, and you are the only one who can truly inherit the position of Xiangjun, not a substitute that I reluctantly found out out of desperation."

Speaking of it.

Donghuang Taiyi looked at Dongqing with a burning gaze, as if Dongqing were a gift from heaven.

"You're making this up, aren't you? You guys were training just fine without me, weren't you?" Dong Qing retorted.

"We all have flaws, more or less." Donghuang Taiyi's tone remained calm.

"Really? I don't believe it." Dong Qing shook his head.

He felt that Donghuang Taiyi was deceiving him.

Just like Lü Buwei at the beginning.

There's no such thing as a coincidence in this world.

If I don't join the Yin-Yang School, none of you will be able to cultivate?

Do you think I'm fooling my child?

Can you be a little more sincere?

Faced with Dongqing's questioning, Donghuang Taiyi did not answer for the time being. She needed to seriously consider whether to tell Dongqing the secret that the Yin-Yang School had been hiding.

that's it.

The atmosphere in the room fell silent. Dongjun Yanfei opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but was stopped by Donghuang Taiyi.

More than ten minutes later.

Donghuang Taiyi, who had been pondering the pros and cons, decided to reveal a secret to Dongqing.

"Even when I'm indoors, I can't leave my skin exposed for long periods of time, otherwise the Yin-Yang magic will backfire, feeling like thousands of ants crawling all over my body."

"Therefore, I always wear loose black clothes and robes to cover my body, partly to conceal my true gender and partly to avoid the backlash of Yin-Yang magic."

“Dongjun, she has the highest talent in cultivating Yin-Yang techniques and suffers the least backlash. She is also my successor, and the Yin-Yang School is destined to be led by her in the future.”

The voice just fell.

Dong Qing interrupted, "If the Yin-Yang School can be led by women, why have you been hiding your gender all this time?"

"Because I don't have absolute strength, as long as a woman has enough talent and strength to keep her subordinates in check, even if she holds a high position, no one will dare to gossip about her in private."

Speaking of it.

Donghuang Taiyi seemed to remember something and sighed, "I heard that there is a girl with extraordinary talent in the Taoist Heavenly Sect. Although she is only eight years old, she defeated six Heavenly Sect elders, excluding the sect leader Chisongzi, as well as eighteen Heavenly Sect disciples."

"Therefore, this little girl was taken in as the last disciple by Bei Mingzi, a Taoist master who had not accepted disciples for fifty years. If nothing unexpected happens, she will most likely become the head of the Taoist Heavenly Sect in the future. With her talent, at most ten years, no one in the entire Taoist Heavenly Sect will be her match."

She longed to lead the Yin-Yang School as a woman, but she knew she couldn't even defeat Dongjun Yanfei, so she had to suppress those thoughts.

Women who aspire to rise to power and occupy the top of the hierarchy are destined to exert far more effort than men, ensuring that those below them have no reason or means to resist.

Let's not talk about other worlds.

In the five thousand years of Chinese history, only one female emperor, Wu Zetian, has emerged. This shows how difficult it is for a woman to stand at the top of power.

"Let's not talk about the Heavenly Sect anymore. Let's talk about the shortcomings of other people practicing the Yin-Yang Five Elements Technique. I always feel that you are deliberately changing the subject, especially Fei Yan. She is very important to me. I want to know if practicing the Yin-Yang Five Elements Technique will harm her."

Dongqing waved her hand, stopping Donghuang Taiyi from going on and on. She seemed to want to repeat the story of that little girl from the Taoist Heavenly Sect over and over again.

"My husband, I'm fine, you don't need to worry about me."

Dong Jun Yanfei held Dong Qing tightly around the waist, her fair face filled with happiness.

She's very easy to please; she never tires of even the sweetest, most cloying words.

“You are now Xiangjun of the Yin-Yang School. Although Dongjun and you are not husband and wife in name, you are husband and wife in reality. There are some things that should not be kept from you anymore.”

Donghuang Taiyi glanced at Dongqing, then said in a calm tone, "Dongjun is the first extraordinary woman to cultivate the Yin-Yang Five Elements Technique. She has cultivated the Soul Dragon Soaring Technique to an unprecedented level, and can even transform into a three-legged golden crow that actually exists. The backlash from cultivating the Yin-Yang Five Elements Technique is negligible, or even non-existent."

"Where is the Moon Goddess?" Dongqing asked curiously.

Before Donghuang Taiyi could answer, Dongjun Yanfei raised her eyebrows upon hearing the words "Moon Goddess," and unconsciously placed her jade hand on Dongqing's waist, pinching the soft flesh and twisting it hard.

"It hurts!"

Feeling the strange sensation in his waist, Dong Qing quickly pretended to be in pain.

"She cannot lose her virginity. Once she does, she will lose her purity, and the backlash from the cultivation technique will not only cause her to lose her ability to predict the future through astrology, but also greatly shorten her lifespan."

After giving Dongqing a brief answer to his question, Donghuang Taiyi began to point out the shortcomings of the other Yin-Yang School guardian elders.

"When the Yin-Yang Family Star Soul cultivates the Yin-Yang Five Elements Technique, his body will stop growing. Due to the limitations of the technique, only children around six years old can cultivate it. Therefore, the Yin-Yang Family Star Soul will never grow taller and can only maintain the appearance of a six-year-old child."

"Below this are the five elders of the Yin-Yang School, each with their own flaws."

"Yin Yang School's Jin Department Yun Zhongjun will gradually lose the most important ability of a man."

"The current Shao Siming of the Wood Department of the Yin-Yang School will be hunted down by the next generation of Shao Siming."

"The Fire Master of the Yin-Yang School, his hands grew increasingly red until they were completely burned by the fire poison."

"The Lady of Xiang, a member of the Yin-Yang School, is likely to fight each other at any time without the mediation of the Lady of Xiang."

"As for Xiangjun of the Earth Branch of the Yin-Yang School..." Donghuang Taiyi's tone was somewhat hesitant.

“Speak,” Dong Qing said, his tone leaving no room for doubt.

His public persona is that of an ancient Qi cultivator, whose strength is no less than that of the leaders of the Hundred Schools of Thought.

He was also the protector of the Qin state, the imperial tutor, the man of the Eastern Lord, and the lover of the Moon Goddess.

As for his personal reputation, he was still a figure of the sages and philosophers of the past. Joining the Yin-Yang School was a sign of respect for the Yin-Yang School, and the Yin-Yang School benefited from his reputation.

so......

He said a few harsh words to Donghuang Taiyi, but the woman didn't get angry.

"After cultivating the Huangtian Houtu technique, one's temperament may be more attractive to women, making it easy to attract unwanted romantic entanglements."

"for example?"

"For example...a couple who are clearly in love, after the woman meets you, she may fall for someone else, and then you will be resented by the man and needlessly bring about your death."

"Is this really a drawback?"

"Besides, after cultivating the Heavenly Soil and Earthly Branches, you are very likely to be used as a furnace by a powerful woman. Of course, one must cultivate the Heavenly Soil and Earthly Branches to the great perfection to be qualified as a furnace. You are just practicing casually, so you will not be able to achieve great perfection. Therefore, there is no problem with that."

"I understand."

........

Dong Qing stroked his chin, picked up the yellowed book in his hand, studied it carefully for a while, and found that there was nothing wrong with the "Heaven and Earth" manual from the Yin-Yang School. He curiously tried practicing it.

"The profound origin of heaven and earth, the root of all energies, through countless eons of cultivation, I have attained divine power, throughout the three realms, under the heavens and the earth..."

A few minutes later.

Dong Qing's face darkened as he looked at the Xuanhuang Qi ball radiating a sacred aura in his hand. He had accidentally mastered the Huangtian Houtu technique, which he had only practiced casually.

"Female swindler!"

Dong Qing glared at Donghuang Taiyi, then pushed Dongjun Yanfei aside and stormed off.

Be the furnace, be your sister.

After he left.

Dongjun Yanfei and Donghuang Taiyi, who were still in a daze, finally came to their senses and woke up from the shock of Dongqing's casual practice leading directly to mastery.

"Your man cultivated the Heaven and Earth Techniques to perfection in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn?" Donghuang Taiyi swallowed hard.

"He was originally an ancient Qi cultivator, proficient in the Five Elements. The Yin-Yang Five Elements technique should be very simple for him. He could master the Yin-Yang Five Elements technique in an instant, and by analogy, he skipped the cultivation process and directly obtained the Great Perfection of the Heaven and Earth," Dongjun Yanfei explained.

"Dongjun, do you know? If you want to push your stagnant Soul Dragon Soaring realm to break through your limits, you'll probably need the help of his fully realized Heaven and Earth." Donghuang Taiyi sighed.

"That's none of your business. You women should just avoid provoking him," Dongjun Yanfei said warily.

“I probably won’t, but if the Moon Goddess discovers that he possesses the fully developed Heaven and Earth, she will probably cling to him at all costs.” Donghuang Taiyi said meaningfully.

the other side.

Dong Qing carefully examined the so-called Heaven and Earth, and he felt as if he had been deceived by a woman again without realizing it.

This thing doesn't improve one's own strength at all; it's purely functional. Not only can it harmonize the yin and yang balance within the body, it can even help others break through their own limits.
