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

Douhuang: One to nine stars, possessing an upgraded version of Dou Qi Wings, capable of mobilizing a large amount of external energy of the same attribute, and can still stay in mid-air for a short time even without external assistance.

Dou Zong: One to nine stars. Those who reach this level can barely be considered strong. They can stay in the void without external help and have the qualifications to establish their own sect.

Dou Zun: One to nine stars. Those who reach this level have entered the top of the Dou Qi Continent's pyramid and can master and utilize the power of space.

Once a Dou Zun cultivates to the ninth star, which is the peak of Dou Zun, there is still the Nine Revolutions to become a Saint. This is the predicament of entering Sainthood, and the Dou Qi required for each revolution is equivalent to the total Dou Qi required for Dou Zun levels one through nine.

This realm is called Half-Saint, with levels of beginner, intermediate, and advanced. One can also call oneself a Saint, possessing power surpassing that of a Dou Zun, but still quite different from a true Dou Sheng.

Dou Sheng: One to nine stars, with more detailed divisions between realms. Each star is further subdivided into early, middle, and late stages. For example, Dou Sheng three-star early stage, Dou Sheng three-star middle stage, and Dou Sheng three-star late stage. There are considerable differences between each minor realm.

Any powerful individual who reaches this realm, even if lacking in personal fighting spirit, can still use their mental power to mobilize the energy of heaven and earth for attack and defense without restraint.

With every gesture, mountains crumbled and the earth split, shattering space itself.

The ability to carve out a habitable space from nothingness is a hallmark of a powerful Battle Saint.

The mark of a six-star Dou Sheng is spatial displacement, while for a nine-star Dou Sheng in the late stage, their bloodline begins to mutate.

Dong Qing was targeting mutants and Nine-Star Dou Sheng, and his attacks even made Gu Yuan a little unsure of himself.

Gu Yuan is Gu Xun'er's (Xiao Xun'er's) father. As the patriarch of the Gu clan, his strength has reached the late stage of the Nine-Star Dou Sheng realm, and he is only one step away from becoming a Dou Di.

Because he was brutally beaten by Dong Qing, he suspected that Dong Qing was the legendary Dou Di. Therefore, even though Dong Qing volunteered to be Gu Xun'er's [Xiao Xun'er] protector.

He didn't think too much about it and just agreed.

Firstly, there's no need for a Dou Di to play any tricks on him. The difference of one level is like heaven and earth. In front of a Dou Di, a Dou Sheng is basically no stronger than an ant on the ground.

Secondly, what he did angered Gu Xun'er [Xiao Xun'er], and without even asking for her opinion, he sent her to a Xiao family she had never been to before.

Dou Di: The highest realm in the Dou Qi Continent. Those who reach this realm are the most powerful beings on the Dou Qi Continent.

In the blink of an eye, heaven and earth changed, and mountains and rivers were shattered.

The mere aftershocks of the battle could instantly kill a peak nine-star Dou Sheng expert. It could also prevent Dou Sheng experts from manipulating the energy of heaven and earth.

He possesses the ability to alter his own bloodline, benefiting his descendants. He can single-handedly revitalize his entire family, absorb the power of heaven and earth into his body, forming a colossal Dou Di body and a celestial Dharma image capable of destroying the entire world.

"I don't need to fight against people of the same level, nor do I need to challenge people of a higher level. As long as my cultivation level is high enough, that's enough. I like to overpower people with force, just like I like to throw money at people."

Mittel-Yafei stated her views very simply and clearly, speaking her mind. Fighting to the death is barbaric. She only wants to improve her cultivation level and prolong her life. She doesn't want to become an old woman one day.

She was a woman who cared most about her appearance. As for the strength she gained from cultivating battle qi, it was enough for self-defense. There was no need for her to constantly push herself to the limit and cultivate various killing techniques just to kill someone.

"Sigh... I'm glad you like it." Dong Qing sighed deeply, having no intention of trying to persuade Mittel-Yafei.

Because it wasn't just her; in another world, Shui Yue'er, Niu Xiaomei, Ning Rongrong, and others cultivated in order to maintain their youth and beauty.

"Dongqing, I heard that the Xiao family has distinguished guests today?" Mittel-Yafei asked curiously.

"You know about this too?" Dong Qing asked back.

“Because of you, the Xiao family is now the largest family in Wutan City, and has even squeezed out the original families. Now everyone is watching the Xiao family in Wutan City. As long as the Xiao family doesn’t keep it a secret, any little thing will spread throughout the entire Wutan City in half a day.” Mittel-Yafei curled her lips.

"Nothing major happened in the Xiao family. It was just that a young girl wanted to break off the engagement, but that's basically all that's left."

Dong Qing's hands roamed up and down Mittel-Yafei's waist. It has to be said that she was indeed a man's treasure, a gift from heaven, with every part of her body so perfect.

"Annection of the engagement?" Mittel-Yafei asked, puzzled.

"You know Xiao Yan, right? He had a fiancée he was betrothed to since childhood. But when she saw that he had become a useless person, she came specifically to break off the engagement. Xiao Zhan was also a senile old man. He didn't ask beforehand why she was coming, and then he gathered all the members of the Xiao family. He almost got the engagement broken off in public." Dong Qing complained.

Breaking off an engagement privately and breaking it off in public are two different things. Breaking off an engagement privately is something that can be discussed and negotiated, but breaking it off in public is a blatant humiliation.

Even a clay figure has some temper, let alone the Xiao family, which is now the leading family in Wutan City and almost became sworn enemies with the Nalan family, to which Nalan Yanran belongs.

The following time was supposed to be for job transition.

But women are naturally fond of gossip, so Dongqing had no choice but to tell her in detail what had happened to the Xiao family before she finally collapsed and fell asleep, satisfied.

the other side.

The Xiao family's residence is located in the back mountain.

"Host, are you ready? The soul awakened inside the ring your mother left you is itching to come out. As long as you act according to the script, you will definitely gain its trust."

"System, do you think... I can really pull this off?"

"Believe in yourself, host, you are a natural actor."

"Maybe I should just give up. Anyway, with the system, I can become a Dou Di sooner or later."

"It depends on the host's own choice. If you follow the steps, it will take at least a thousand years to obtain the nameless cultivation technique possessed by that soul. It is hoped that you can advance to the Dou Di level within a hundred years."

"Acting, one lie, and you have to keep it up for a lifetime. System, I don't want to lie for the rest of my life."

After much deliberation.

Xiao Yan still did not follow the advice of the Dou Di Becoming God System to deliberately act and deceive the unknown soul's nameless technique. What he wanted did not need to be obtained through deception.

"Come out."

Xiao Yan removed the ring from his finger, his eyes calm and unwavering, showing no emotional fluctuation.

"I had a mentor who guided me, and I already discovered it."

Xiao Yan placed the ring on a nearby rock, then pulled up the ethereal backdrop without blushing. As the system had said, he was a born actor.

"I don't blame you for absorbing three years of Dou Qi. You left me with the ring that my mother left me, so let's just let this matter go." Xiao Yan's tone remained calm.

After a while.

"Really?" an old voice rang out.

next second.

A semi-transparent, aged phantom floated out, looking ethereal and otherworldly, but with a very cautious gaze, because he had discovered something about Xiao Yan that he couldn't understand.

A physical body ten times stronger than that of a monster is simply not something a human could possess.

"Fuck your mother, you old bastard! I never thought it was really you who absorbed my Dou Qi for three years..." Xiao Yan cursed, using extremely vulgar language.

He didn't intend to act or deceive people; he just couldn't help wanting to vent his emotions. Three years—who knows how much pain he endured during those three years? He had no intention of acting to please an old man.

"Stop cursing, your words are too awful. I didn't mean it." The aged phantom gently waved his hand, sealing Xiao Yan's mouth.

"Annihilate the soul?" The system notification sounded in Xiao Yan's mind.

Because the Evil God King rules the Underworld and countless souls, this Dou Di Godhood System, originating from Dong Qing, has an extremely high level of deterrence against soul entities.

Fortunately, the aged phantom was only trying to avoid being scolded and didn't remain sealed for long. Otherwise, Xiao Yan would have agreed to eliminate it, as he is not the kind of person who would not fight back or retaliate when insulted.

"You absorb my fighting spirit, and I'm not even allowed to curse you!" Xiao Yan said angrily.

"Young friend, calm down, I can explain..." the aged phantom figure advised.

"I won't listen. Compensate me for the losses of these past three years, or I'll make you vanish into thin air," Xiao Yan interrupted directly.

acting?

When will I be able to fool them?!

Wouldn't a direct threat be better?

Chapter 827, The Stupid Snake

"Young friend, I see that you are no ordinary person. In addition, I have indeed wronged you in the past three years, which is why I have given you some face. Do you really think you are something special?" the old phantom said angrily.

Who is he?

Medicine Dust, Venerable Medicine.

In his lifetime, he was the number one alchemist on the Dou Qi Continent, an eighth-grade advanced alchemy master, the master of the Zhongzhou Starfall Pavilion, possessed the Bone Spirit Cold Flame ranked eleventh on the Strange Flame Ranking, and was also a peak Dou Zun expert with nine stars and nine revolutions, only one step away from becoming a Dou Sheng.

Now he's fallen on hard times; a tiger fallen into the plains is bullied by dogs.

Even a junior dares to point his finger at him and curse.

"You old codger, if you don't believe me, you can try," Xiao Yan said without any politeness.

"I really don't believe it. With only the third level of Dou Qi, even if the physical strength is strong, how can it do anything to a soul body?" Yao Chen said with great disdain.

That's what I say, but I don't know why.

In the darkness.

He sensed a terrifying power emanating from Xiao Yan, a mere piece of trash whose physical strength was only at the third level of Dou Qi. It seemed that Xiao Yan truly possessed the ability to obliterate Xiao Yan's soul.

"Try it and you'll die, System, I want to eliminate you!" Xiao Yan thought to himself.

"Annihilate the soul?" The system's prompt sounded in Xiao Yan's mind.

"Yes," Xiao Yan replied without hesitation.

"Please confirm authorization. Please note that you only have one authorization opportunity." The system notification sounded.

"What does 'only one authorization opportunity' mean?" Xiao Yan asked, puzzled.

"The host currently only has the authority to activate the soul erasure mechanism once." The system notification sounded.

"And then?" Xiao Yan asked.

"After consuming your privileges, please try not to provoke powerful enemies," the system notification sounded.

"In other words, this thing is equivalent to a nuclear weapon, with enormous destructive power. It's best not to use it if possible," Xiao Yan said with sudden realization.

"Unable to understand." The system notification sounded.

"Wait, why does the system keep prompting me to use this erasure permission?" Xiao Yan asked suspiciously.

"The other party was a peak Dou Zun with nine stars and nine revolutions in life, and even their soul body is a Dou Huang or higher. The host does not have any qualifications to confront them directly. The only solution is to use the annihilation authority." The system notification sounded.

"A Dou Zun?" Xiao Yan was startled.

He finally understood that this old man was no ordinary person. No wonder the system said that he possessed a special cultivation technique that could shorten the time it would take him to become an emperor by ninety percent.

Don't underestimate a Dou Zun, especially a peak Dou Zun at the Nine Stars and Nine Revolutions level. The Jia Ma Empire can't even find a Dou Zong, let alone a peak Dou Zun at the Nine Stars and Nine Revolutions level.

It is worth noting that.

After reaching the ninth star of Dou Zun, the amount of Dou Qi required for each subsequent transformation is equivalent to the total amount required for Dou Zun from the first to the ninth star. A Dou Zun who has reached the ninth star and the ninth transformation is definitely among the top people on the Dou Qi Continent.
