Chapter 303: The Smile Doesn't Disappear, It Just Shifts
Suddenly, Kong looked at Ei, both of them otaku girls, both technical otaku. The things that woman could do, how could Ei not be able to do them? Wait, could it be possible that Wind Riding Lord is more versatile, while Ei Bao is more passionate about weapons? There's a good chance of that!
Dou Kai, Gundam said to build, it would be built. But it can't cook. If she can't cook, how could she produce a machine that can cook? After thinking about it briefly, Kong shook his head. Instead of asking others, why couldn't he personally make a rice cooker for his wife? With this thought, Kong made a decision.
After meals, Kong said to Ei, "Ei, can you teach me how to draw formations?"
The so-called formations actually have much in common with the inscription carvings on the Douluo Continent.
Ei was stunned, but she didn't refuse, nor did she ask what Kong was preparing to do. She nodded and said, "If my husband wants to learn, naturally there's no problem."
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, three months had gone by. During this time, Kong had been learning "formations" in the Pure Land with Ei, and then doing some blacksmithing and such. Kong discovered that he actually had a talent for this. In such a short time, he had already forged the outer shell of the rice cooker!
The scene shifts to the Fallen Leaf Forest.
After three months of devouring and refining, Tang San's soul power level had reached the peak of sixty-nine!
"Hahaha..." Tang San laughed wildly and said, "As long as I devour one more thousand-year soul beast, I, Tang San, will become a Soul Sage!"
"Once I become a Soul Sage and pass through the thunder tribulation, I, Tang San, will undergo earth-shattering changes!"
During this time, Tang San's harvest was quite good. He had killed numerous thousand-year soul beasts, devouring and refining their soul power and bloodline, making his physical body somewhat stronger than an average Soul Sage. Remember, he was currently only a Soul Emperor!
Even with the low probability of soul bone drops, he had obtained two thousand-year-level soul bones. Of course, Tang San hadn't absorbed them yet - he was preparing to absorb better ones! Mere thousand-year soul bones were no longer worthy of Tang San! He was no longer the young man who couldn't help but absorb a thousand-year soul bone.
"With you saying so, I can be at ease!"
Suddenly, Ghost Douluo appeared silently in front of Tang San.
Tang San saw this, and the smile on his face gradually solidified, his scarlet eyes slowly becoming clear.
"Again?"
Tang San felt a bit numb. What was this black-robed person up to?
Wait, since this black-robed person had no intention of killing him, why come find him? Now that the rules had changed and leveling up no longer required hunting soul beasts, what was this black-robed person's purpose in coming to find him?
"Tang San, we meet again."
Tang San: "..."
If Tang San were a Title Douluo now, he would definitely not waste words and would charge up with his Hammer.
"Who exactly are you!?"
"What do you want to do?"
Tang San said with a grave expression.
Because of this person, the sixth soul rings of his two martial souls were already ruined. What else did this person want?
Blocking one's path is like killing one's parents - this person was courting death!
Tang San was an ancient person, and even when swearing, he only had a few powerless words.
Saying someone was courting death did fit the identity of an assassin.
"Who am I?"
Hearing this, Ghost Douluo fell into a momentary recollection before continuing, "My original name, I've forgotten. Since I died and was reborn, awakening my current martial soul, I am called Ghost Douluo!"
"As for what I want to do, you will know!"
"Ghost Douluo? Ghost... Ghost Douluo! You are the Ghost Douluo of the Spirit Hall!"
Tang San instantly understood who the black-robed person before him was!
Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo were one of the "faces" of the Spirit Hall. On the elder's token, their martial souls were carved, showing how much they were valued in the Spirit Hall.
Of course, the reason they were valued was because of their ghost-chrysanthemum unity - they could execute a martial soul fusion technique! If one of them died, the other's status in the Spirit Hall would drop significantly, very significantly!
"I have never offended you, nor have I ever offended the Spirit Hall. What exactly do you want to do!" Tang San asked incomprehensibly, wanting to die but at least understanding why.
"Never offended us?"
"Haha..."
"You are Tang Hao's son and Yu Xiaogang's disciple, and that's enough to have offended us to death!"
"Back then, your father Tang Hao colluded with a hundred-thousand-year soul beast and set a trap to harm the former Pope, Qian Xunji."
"Because of this, three Title Douluo from the Spirit Hall died, with two killed and one injured."
"And you still say you haven't offended us..."
Back then, Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo had also participated in hunting down Tang Hao, but at that time, their soul power levels had not reached Title Douluo.
At that time, they did not have the Two Extremes Static Domain martial soul fusion technique. If Ghost and Chrysanthemum had broken through to Title Douluo then, with their fusion technique, how could Tang Hao possibly survive?
It was known that this martial soul fusion technique could even restrict two hundred-thousand-year soul beasts!
Tang Hao, who had just broken through to Title Douluo, even if he fully erupted, could not possibly be stronger than two hundred-thousand-year soul beasts...
Ghost Douluo knew how Qian Xunji died.
But this blame must be placed on Tang Hao!
If Tang Hao had not seriously injured Qian Xunji, Bi Bi Dong would not have been able to succeed.
Tang San: "???"
Good heavens, not only did his father have a grudge with the Spirit Hall, but his teacher Yu Xiaogang also had a grudge with them?
Hearing Ghost Douluo speak, Tang San suddenly realized and subconsciously said, "Was my teacher captured by you?"
Yu Xiaogang had disappeared on the first day of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament.
Tang San had once thought Yu Xiaogang had simply hidden away to live a peaceful life.
But he was actually captured?
"Yes, and I personally made the move!"
"Enough talk, Tang San. Will you surrender, or do you want me to beat you into submission and then have you surrender!"
Ghost Douluo was in quite a good mood, even making a joke that was not quite a joke.
Hearing this, Tang San hesitated. Currently, he was definitely not a match for Ghost Douluo - that was without question.
This was a Title Douluo!
He mainly did not know what Ghost Douluo's purpose was.
"Are you capturing me to kill me?" Tang San asked in confusion. But then, wouldn't directly killing him be simpler? Why bother capturing him?
"No, I need you to go somewhere!"
After receiving Ghost Douluo's reply, Tang San nodded.
"I am willing to surrender."
He wanted to see what purpose Ghost Douluo had in capturing him.
"Hmph, at least you're sensible!"
Ghost Douluo was not afraid of Tang San causing trouble. He grabbed Tang San by the neck and headed toward Spirit City...
