"Thud~"
The small hammer smoothly merged into the Thunderflame Clear Sky Hammer.
It bestowed upon it the "Destruction's Three Passives."
—Destructive Force: Absorbing Soul Power increases weight and size! —Destructive Constancy: Regardless of the Thunderflame Clear Sky Hammer's weight, it will always be at the specified weight in his hands!
—Destructive Origin: Regardless of any Soul Rings acquired, Soul Skills will only amplify the user's physical strength and the weight limit of the Thunderflame Clear Sky Hammer!
It focused solely on brute force, without any fancy tricks.
Unimaginable.
If he could apply nine Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Rings, a God-level Soul Ring, and finally, a ten-ring explosion…
"Feel—"
He wouldn't even need the Asura God position; he could probably take on two with a single strike of the Clear Sky Hammer, right?
'Decided!'
'Even if I eventually give up the God of Destruction position, I'm not giving this divine artifact back!'
'That God of Destruction can't possibly complain to the God King of Destruction over this, can he?'
He was making his calculations.
Tang Lan looked at the last reward—the Soul Spirit Equality Contract! This thing… It was a weapon for harvesting the faith of Soul Beasts!
Soul Masters needed to hunt Soul Beasts and absorb Soul Rings and Soul Bones to enhance their strength.
Naturally, Soul Beasts hated Soul Masters.
Over tens of thousands of years, Soul Masters and Soul Beasts had long become adversaries, locked in an endless struggle.
The emergence of the Soul Spirit Equality Contract improved this conflict.
When a Soul Beast's body perished, its soul would dissipate.
The Soul Spirit Equality Contract, through special guidance, allowed the soul to attach to a Soul Ring.
This preserved their souls and consciousness.
They could also assist the host in battle, enhance the Soul Ring's effects, and even actively release Soul Skills.
If the host Soul Master was fortunate enough to break through to level one hundred and achieve godhood,
the Soul Spirit would also ascend to the God Realm and evolve into a god.
At this moment,
as long as the host desires, they can revive Soul Beasts and grant them human forms.
They can gain eternal life in the God Realm.
This Soul Spirit Equality Contract provides Soul Masters and Soul Beasts with the possibility of symbiosis.
Simultaneously, it also gives some Soul Beasts, whose lifespans are nearing their end, a chance to live.
Because of this, in the world of Douluo Continent 3, the Spirit Transmission Tower, which manufactures Soul Spirits, is present everywhere.
It is responsible for awakening Martial Souls, conducting mental power tests, registering Battle Armor Masters, and so on.
It is… the core that replaces the Martial Soul Hall!
I was originally thinking that I'd have to eliminate the Martial Soul Hall to take its place.
Now, with this Soul Spirit Equality Contract, it seems like I'm not necessarily at odds with the Martial Soul Hall?
Hmm.
I still need to kill those who ambushed my mom back then.
Tang Lan's thoughts drifted, considering many possible moves.
For example, Convincing Great Bright and Second Bright to become his soul spirits? After all, both of them had given up on taking human form and would have to endure the tribulation of the "Hundred-Thousand-Year Heavenly Tribulation" within a thousand years.
If they weren't careful, they would be annihilated, body and soul.
Now, they could become Tang Lan's soul spirits.
Once he ascended to the God Realm, he could revive them, becoming gods just like in the original story.
Perfect!
But first, I need to conduct tests and present facts to make my case more convincing.
Tang Lan thought of Jing Ling.
The immortal herbs were limited, and Tang Lan planned to consume a lot more.
He could forget about those.
But other ten-thousand-year herbs could help him break through to higher levels.
So, he needed to carefully consider his third Soul Ring.
Just pondering.
Tang Lan suddenly looked up, gazing in the direction of the sect.
A powerful aura was rushing over!
This spiritual power is...
Tang Lan immediately unsealed his Blue Silver Grass, activated his flight Soul Bone skill, injected it with life force, and transformed into a streak of light, flying rapidly.
He intercepted the aggressively approaching Tang Hao, preventing any further commotion.
"Xiao Lan, are you alright?" Tang Hao said with surprise, "You summoned me so urgently, is there something important?"
Tang Lan didn't answer immediately, instead, he looked behind him.
The Soul Spirit Domain, like the Blue Silver Domain, could be maintained in a constant state.
Furthermore, the combination of these two domains allowed for the detection of information from extremely far distances.
At this moment.
A large number of city defense forces were flying through the air and across the ground, charging forward in a dense wave.
Clearly,
Tang Hao hadn't "announced" his arrival earlier; he had forced his way in.
This was Heaven Dou City!
A strange Title Douluo, radiating killing intent, forcing his way into the city was no small matter!
"Dad, you go to my room and wait for a bit." Tang Lan pointed towards his Sect Master's Palace. "I'll deal with these little problems and then come find you."
Tang Hao obviously realized the issue as well.
His identity wasn't suitable to be revealed yet.
He nodded and flew downwards.
A few seconds later.
Liu Erlong soared into the air, looking around in surprise and doubt.
"Sect Master, I seemed to sense a... very violent aura just now?"
"It's nothing." Tang Lan said calmly. "It's a Title Douluo coming to pledge allegiance. You go and soothe those below, I'll handle things here."
Liu Erlong was stunned.
A Title Douluo was coming to join them?!
"Feel—"
Their Tang Sect would soon have a Title Douluo in their ranks?
She hurriedly said, "Leave the matters below to me, Sect Master, you don't need to worry!"
She flapped her Fire Dragon Wings and departed.
Not long after,
the clamor below quieted down, even the chirping of insects was silenced.
In his perception.
The people led by Zhao Wuji were hunting insects everywhere, fearing they would disturb that Title Douluo.
Tang Lan was amused.
Not long after,
a large army arrived at the gates of the Tang Sect Academy.
Leading them was Dugu Bo.
"Little monster, do you know what that aura was just now?" Dugu Bo asked directly.
In fact, he already had a guess.
"It's just as you thought," Tang Lan said. "We'll be going together in two days."
Dugu Bo's eyes narrowed!
Indeed!
It was that person – the Clear Sky Douluo!
"Little monster, please tell him not to be so ostentatious next time," Dugu Bo said coldly. "This is Heaven Dou City! And there's also the Platinum Bishop Salas!"
Tang Lan smiled and clasped his hands in a gesture of respect, saying nothing.
Dugu Bo tacitly led his team away.
That matter was considered settled.
Tang Lan turned and flew back to the Sect Master's Palace. As soon as he landed, Tang Hao came forward to meet him.
"You were so eager to call me over; is it about that little snake?"
In the vast Heaven Dou City, there was only one Title Douluo.
Tang Lan nodded, then shook his head.
Tang Hao was confused.
"It's because of Dugu Bo, but not for him," Tang Lan said directly, "I've discovered a treasure land that can make plants grow a thousand, or even ten thousand, times faster."
Tang Hao's eyes suddenly widened!
He stared intently at Tang Lan, with excitement, surprise, suspicion, understanding, and reminiscence... a complex mix of emotions.
After a long while.
He finally sighed, "You know everything?"
"It's not hard to guess." Tang Lan nodded. "Dad, you're the Clear Sky Douluo, Tang Hao. Mom is a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast who transformed, the Blue Silver Emperor behind the waterfall."
Tang Hao gave a wry smile.
This son was a bit, well, a monster, wasn't he?
Or perhaps... His eyes flickered, but he didn't elaborate on that thought.
"Xiao Lan, that treasure land you mentioned, is it in Dugu Bo's hands?"
"Yes." Tang Lan smiled. "In two days, Dad, you and I will go to that treasure land, and then..."
"Don't worry!" Tang Hao's eyes were filled with killing intent. "For Ah Yin, a little snake is nothing, it's just simple…"
Tang Lan quickly waved his hand to stop him.
This Tang Hao's killing intent, is too heavy, isn't it?
"I've already talked it over with Dugu Bo."
Tang Lan explained:
"I'll treat the poison on him and his granddaughter, and also help him break through."
"Then that treasure land will belong to me."
"Then you can take your mother in."
Tang Hao was a little stunned.
Tang Lan, who was only a Soul King with five Soul Rings, could negotiate with a Title Douluo?
But thinking of Tang Lan's founding of the Tang Sect, his alliance with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and his deep favor with the Heaven Dou Royal Family…
That makes sense.
"Alright."
"I came in a hurry this time and didn't bring Ah Yin with me."
"I'll go back first and bring Ah Yin back as soon as possible."
Tang Lan nodded.
She took out a storage ring and handed it to Tang Hao.
"This is a specially made storage Soul Tool. Air can be injected into it, so it can hold living things."
Tang Hao was somewhat surprised.
A Soul Tool for storing living things, he'd only heard of it; this was the first time he'd actually seen one!
After taking it, he examined it to make sure it was correct.
He couldn't help but sigh, "Little Lan, you've grown up."
Tang Lan smiled without speaking.
Watching Tang Hao take off into the sky again, he had an answer in his heart.
—Tang Hao must have guessed that Tang Lan and Tang San were not his sons.
At least, not in soul.
As a Title Douluo, and also exceptionally gifted.
His two sons, under his very nose, without any teaching, each practiced a different set of techniques.
Is this something a normal child could do?
It's probably because of all this.
Tang Hao only pulled himself together at the age of six, after seeing the Twin Martial Souls, and gaining hope for revenge. He had been completely broken before that.
This Tang Hao, he's also a pitiful man!
His wife was forced to sacrifice herself, and his son was also taken over. He's definitely a jinx.
As for the conspiracy theory of "deliberately framing Ah Yin to sacrifice herself" from his previous life…
Tang Lan didn't believe it.
Tang Hao had a full set of Soul Bones, and he couldn't even use a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bone.
If it was just for a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring…
Then he had already succeeded, so why did he fall apart for six years? He even let his hidden injuries worsen, drowning his sorrows in alcohol every day.
Otherwise,
If Tang Hao had cultivated well, there might have been a chance for him to become a peerless Douluo.
So there was only one explanation: he had suffered a huge psychological trauma.
"Knock, knock, knock—"
"Brother?"
"It's Xiaosan. Liu Erlong said a Title Douluo came?"
Well now!
Was he not going to miss any opportunity?
"Come in."
Tang Lan pushed open the door and looked around.
"Stop looking, he's already gone." Tang Lan said, "The person who came just now was our father."
Tang San's eyes widened immediately!
He blurted out, "He's a Title Douluo? Him?"
The man in his mind, who was always drunk and living a life of debauchery, really didn't match up with the image of a Title Douluo!
Tang Lan didn't hide anything.
He briefly explained the general ins and outs to Tang San.
"So, Little San, don't blame Dad, he's had a tough time these past few years."
Tang San: o(^｀)o It's like you're telling a myth! But looking at Tang Lan's expression... It seems so serious.
Just... That's a Title Douluo!
Before the age of six, he tried to hide it, but that was only from ordinary people.
How sensitive is a Title Douluo's perception?
Even with his current cultivation, looking back at his so-called concealment back then, it was full of holes! 'Dad, he wouldn't have guessed something was off about me, would he?'
'That's why he's so good to Brother, but to me…'
For a moment,
Tang San was a bit flustered!
That guy, Tang Hao, if he came to question his identity...
How would he answer?
[The host makes Tang San fear Tang Hao, making him no longer trust him, losing the possibility of learning the ring explosion technique. Snatching a moderate amount of Tang San's luck!]
[Reward: Purple Demon Eye - Subtle Realm!]
[Reward: Soul God's Eye, Purple Demon Eye, and Vast Sea Universe Cover merge and manifest as God-level External Spirit Bone - Vast Sea Godly Eyes!]
The next moment,
the Vast Sea Universe Cover from the Sea God's mark flew out and stood before Tang Lan's brow.
Tang Lan's left eye was the Soul God's Eye, and his right eye was the Purple Demon Eye.
One blue and one purple.
It resonated with the Vast Sea Universe Cover on his forehead, spinning and transforming into a giant pinwheel that gradually merged together.
Finally, it solidified into a blue-purple vertical eye, embedding itself within Tang Lan's brow.
It became a blue-purple pattern, appearing completely natural.
Tang San was stunned!
He instinctively stared at the pattern, feeling a sense of being "looked at."
And he felt as if he were completely naked, with nowhere to hide.
What kind of opportunity has he gained now?!
Tang Lan was also stunned at this moment!
He was just explaining casually, how did he suddenly seize an opportunity?
And it was a medium-level opportunity!
He didn't even need to merge the Soul Bone with the Vast Sea Cover, and he became a god-level external Soul Bone himself?
—Though the Vast Sea Cover was, in itself, a divine artifact.
A slight perception.
Good heavens! A full seven Soul Bone skills!
—Purple Demon Eye: An evolved version of Purple Demon Eye and the Godly Eyes of the Soul, with the addition of micro-observation and slow-motion capabilities on the basis of a God's-eye view!
—Vast Sea Soul Seal: An enhanced version of Soul Lock + Divine Spirit Seal, combining the effects of both.
——Vast Sea Soul Shield: On the basis of the Vast Sea Protective Shield, a soul defense has been added.
——Heaven and Earth Soul Binding: Still immobilizes the enemy, but it has been changed from mental power to soul, and the enemy needs to exceed his soul by 5 times to break free! ——Vast Sea Roar: The Vast Sea Godly Eyes will store soul power and release it with the Sea God's Roar, a dual physical and soul attack! ——Heaven and Earth Soul Break: Provides high-intensity single-target physical and soul output! Although they are all skills from the original Purple Demon Eye, Soul God's Eye, and Vast Sea Universe Shield.
But they have all been sublimated!
Playing out the terrifying effect of 1+1＞2! 'This'
'So I have a god-level soul bone?'
'And it's an external soul bone!'
Tang Lan was a little dazed.
Happiness came too suddenly; he needed to take a moment to process it.
"Brother?" Tang San's voice trembled. "How do you know the Purple Demon Eye?"
This question startled Tang Lan.
He looked deeply at Tang San, his expression strange.
"The Purple Demon Eye... naturally, it was developed by referencing your eye technique," Tang Lan said matter-of-factly. "Just like the Water Ripple Steps, it was developed by referencing your Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track."
Tang San's mouth hung open in disbelief!
You developed it yourself?
Very good, very powerful, there's no way to refute it.
Because Tang San had never shared the Purple Demon Eye with anyone, this was the only explanation.
So.
Tang Lan already knew about him secretly keeping the cultivation method?
"Then what was that just now?" Tang San changed the subject.
"The Vast Sea Godly Eyes and the Purple Demon Eye that I comprehended, plus another ability, reacted and fused," Tang Lan said calmly.
However, it stirred up a storm in Tang San's heart!
So...
That Vast Sea Godly Eyes actually had such a powerful function?
Then came a wave of heartache!
At the time, he had thought it was just a Soul Tool.
He hadn't expected...
