Douluo: Wuhun Seven Killing Sword, Sword Opens the Gate of Heaven

Hunter opened his mouth wide, seemingly unwilling to believe what Ning Tianchen said.

But Ning Tianchen's attitude made him a little shaken.

Ning Tianchen's strength is obviously stronger than Cooper's, but the latter still makes him his subordinate. How is this possible!
It seems that it is reasonable for Ning Tianchen to kill Cooper.

The Holy Spirit Church will only absorb the elite forces on the continent. Can't the strength of Ning Tianchen and his gang be called elite?
After winning over the other party and returning to the church, Hunter not only did nothing wrong, but even made a great contribution. Maybe, there is still a chance to get the resources to break through to Contra.

Thinking of this, Hunter's expression suddenly changed, his eyes full of enthusiasm, "We are all believers of Lord Cassius, we are the same kind of people."

"Senior, if you are willing to join us, we are naturally welcome. However, I have an unwelcome request. I wonder if you would like to ask me..."

Ning Tianchen shouted: "Speak!"

Hunter asked tentatively, "Senior, I wonder if you can accept me as your subordinate after you join the church?"

In the Holy Spirit Church, every priest has his own subordinates.

Originally, Hunter was Cooper's subordinate, but now that Cooper is dead, he has become a homeless person.

The subordinates of the other priests in the church have long been a united front. If he were to be assigned to one of them, he would inevitably be excluded.

Ning Tianchen and others have just joined the church and do not have their own subordinates. If he can become the top general under the other party, he will definitely benefit a lot in the future.

Moreover, Ning Tianchen's strength showed that he would definitely become the High Priest of the Holy Spirit Church in the future. Following such a strong man, his future was limitless.

In order to achieve his goal, Ning Tianchen agreed. "Okay. Now can you tell me about the church's situation?"

Hunter first expressed his gratitude, and then told him everything he knew.

The Holy Spirit Church has a total of four priests, excluding Cooper, there are three more.

Two of them were not as strong as Cooper. As for whether they were Titled Douluo, Hunter could not tell with his strength and it was impossible for him to know.

The strength of the high priest Huerhan is far superior to that of Cooper, and it is said that he has reached the level of Super Douluo.

Cooper had mentioned these things to them unintentionally. The high priest was stronger than Cooper, so the latter naturally could not see his soul power level.

In addition, the Holy Spirit Church has many branches across the mainland to attract more members.

For example, the evil spirit master team that Ning Tianchen and others encountered in Hedu Village was led by the branch president of that area. The rest of the people were the elite forces developed privately by the branch president.

As for the weaker peripheral members, these people act low-key and dare not go to the human world to cause trouble. They only dare to hunt soul beasts and absorb their blood to improve their strength in the outskirts of the soul beast forest far away from the human world.

According to Hunter, the Lieyang Empire's suppression of evil soul masters was particularly fierce, and even the Lieyang Emperor would personally hunt down high-level evil soul masters.

"It is said that there is a powerful man hidden in the Lieyang Palace. Even the high priest is no match for him. Lord Cassius once issued an oracle that whoever can kill the Lieyang Emperor will become Lord Cassius's agent, and his status will be higher than that of the high priest."

With this sentence, Hunter was hinting to Ning Tianchen and others to make contributions to the church in order to obtain a higher status.

In his opinion, apart from Ning Tianchen, no one in the church had the ability to enter the palace and assassinate Emperor Lieyang.

This was the first time Ning Tianchen and the others had heard of this incident.

The Lieyang Empire is very strong on the mainland and can attack almost anyone it wants. I didn't expect that its confidence comes from here.

But Ning Tianchen doesn't care about these, and he will not interfere in the situation of the Sun and Moon Continent.

"According to your previous statement, the information you obtained also leaked from the Lieyang Palace?" Feng Xiaotian seized the "loophole" in Hunter's words and asked further questions.

Before he could finish, Hunter explained, "More than a decade ago, the high priest sneaked into the Lieyang Palace, and these data and intelligence were obtained at that time."

"Emperor Lieyang was not as powerful as the high priest, but when the high priest wanted to take action, he was locked by an unknown aura in the palace. The owner of this aura did not seem to want to show up, so the high priest was able to escape."

It makes sense.

Of course, these are not what Ning Tianchen wants to know. "After talking for so long, you still haven't told me the location of the church's headquarters. What, do you not believe us, or do you not want to join me?"

Hunter begged for mercy again and again before he told the truth, "I can't tell you the location of the church's headquarters. We have set up several teleportation points in the forest. Every time we arrive there, the priest recites a spell and we are teleported to the headquarters."

"I do remember that spell, but it will only be effective if someone strong enough recites it."

After Ning Tianchen's repeated questioning, Hunter finally revealed all the information.

After making sure that he could no longer get the information he wanted, Ning Tianchen's eyes darkened, "Xiaotian, kill him."

Hunter's eyes widened, and he begged for mercy, "Sir, I really didn't lie. Everything I said just now is true. Besides, I am your subordinate, have you forgotten?"

Without waiting for Ning Tianchen to speak, Feng Xiaotian responded with a sneer, "We never negotiate with evil soul masters."

As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Xiaotian's wolf claws cut Hunter's throat.

Hunter's eyes widened, and he finally figured it out before he died.

Ning Tianchen and others had been trying to trick him from the beginning to the end, and when he told everything, the fate that awaited him was already determined.

……

After dealing with the evil soul master's corpse, Zhu Zhuqing and Oscar inspected the soul guides on Cooper.

The six people returned to Butterfly Valley. Ning Tianchen took out the "divine weapon" mentioned by Hunter from the soul guide and placed it in front of the stone man.

“Is this the thing?”

The stone man crawled out from the ground and held the little thing in his palm, examining it carefully.

A few minutes later, he returned the item to Ning Tianchen, "Yes. But I sense a different power on it. It may not be easy to destroy it. It may release a lot of energy and destroy everything around it the moment it breaks."

"But I think that with this thing, you should be able to easily find the lair of those guys."

Nothing in the Butterfly Valley could escape the Stone Man's perception, including the previous conversation between Ning Tianchen and others and Hunter.

Looking at the bread-shaped "artifact" in his hand, Ning Tianchen couldn't see any clues.

After thinking about it, he decided to put the "artifact" into Cooper's soul guide to avoid any accidents.

"Oscar, how long is the deadline for your divine test?" Ning Tianchen asked.

The God of Food is only a second-level god, so the difficulty of the test will not be too high, and there should be more time for the test.

Oscar scratched his head and said, "Ten years."

"So long?" Ning Tianchen was shocked at first, then he understood.

If they had not asked Hunter just now, they might not be able to find the Holy Spirit Church's lair within ten years.

Since there is plenty of time for the assessment, there is no need for them to rush.

Under Ning Tianchen's arrangement, everyone stayed in the Butterfly Valley to cultivate their soul power. After Feng Xiaotian broke through level 80 and obtained the eighth soul ring, they would go to fight against the Holy Spirit Church, which would relieve a lot of pressure for Ning Tianchen.

It is worth mentioning that Feng Xiaotian received a level one soul power reward after completing the last test. His current soul power level has just broken through level 79, and he is still a little far from breaking through to Soul Douluo. …

For the next five months, everyone stayed in the depths of Butterfly Valley, a place with abundant spiritual energy, to practice.

Ning Tianchen's original strength was level 86.5, but he successfully broke through to level 88, taking him one step closer to level 90.

Among the rest, except Feng Xiaotian, everyone else was promoted two to three levels.

As for Feng Xiaotian, it is not easy to break through to a higher realm, and there is a watershed between Soul Sage and Soul Douluo. It is normal that the breakthrough speed is slow.

At that time, Ning Tianchen used the full power of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, but it still took him several months to break through.

Originally, Feng Xiaotian didn't need to waste so much time.

For soul masters, in addition to soul rings and soul power levels, the quality of soul power is also important.

During these five months, Feng Xiaotian spent nearly half of his time honing his soul power. His current strength is no longer comparable to what it was five months ago.

On this day, Feng Xiaotian successfully broke through level 80. The stone man then "drove" them out of the training site.

The spiritual energy in the Butterfly Valley is limited, and it is needed to feed the soul beasts in the entire canyon. It is not easy for Ning Tianchen and others to occupy here for a long time.

Chen Huayu's seventh soul ring did not use the divine soul ring. Now everyone needs to wait for the two sisters to come out of seclusion, so it is not convenient to go with Feng Xiaotian to hunt for the eighth soul ring.

So, Chen Huayu gave the God-given soul ring to Feng Xiaotian.

When he breaks through in the future, Feng Xiaotian can help him hunt down an eighth soul ring.

"Thank you." Feng Xiaotian bumped fists with him.

Next, Feng Xiaotian found a quiet place to absorb the God-given soul ring.

With his strength, the eighth soul ring can completely try to absorb the hundred thousand year soul ring.

After waiting for a few more days, Feng Xiaotian was still absorbing the soul ring, and the Yudie sisters walked out of the hall behind the stone archway.

Ning Tianchen and others hurriedly asked about the situation.

The two sisters were given nine tests each, and their positions as gods were Left-wing Butterfly God and Right-wing Butterfly God respectively.

There is only one throne for the Butterfly God, and the test is extremely difficult, so it would be difficult for any one of them to complete it alone.

Finally, the Butterfly God disassembled the throne, and the difficulty was reduced by half.

It is worth mentioning that after both of them complete the God Test, they will be able to merge into a complete Butterfly God using some kind of fusion technique in the future. Before merging, each of them only had the strength of a second-level god.

"Senior Die Shen only said that our combined strength is stronger than that of Poseidon."

Yudie asked doubtfully, "But we don't know what the Sea God's strength is."

Ning Tianchen suddenly smiled.

As for Poseidon, he knew it very well.

Although he sneered at Poseidon's style, Poseidon's strength was unquestionable.

Poseidon is a first-level god, but he possesses a super artifact, the Poseidon Trident. In terms of strength, he is second only to the five great gods, and is absolutely the leader among the first-level gods.

No wonder the Butterfly God’s assessment is so difficult, the strength of the god determines the difficulty of the assessment!

The Shura God's test was not easy, but Ning Tianchen was lucky. Tang Chen had used up all the test content left by the Shura God on the Douluo Continent, so the Shura God's test could only be taken at the test locations of other gods.

"Don't feel too stressed, just relax. We have gone through a lot of tests along the way, and there is nothing we can't overcome. If it is really difficult to complete, everyone can help you."

"I'm afraid not." Yudie smiled bitterly and shook her head, "The inheritance place of the Butterfly God is here, we can't go back with you."

"Senior Die Shen said that the subsequent assessments will be conducted on this continent, so we have no choice but to stay here. Otherwise, we won't have enough time to travel back and forth between the two continents."

Everyone's expression froze.

There were eight people when we came, and two people were missing when we left. What's going on?

Moreover, when they left, they would definitely return with the Manta. Without the Manta, the two sisters would be trapped on this continent.

Yudie seemed to see everyone's worries and said with a smile: "Don't worry, after we complete the nine tests, we can fly back with our own strength."

"We stayed here to find our mother. Senior Die Shen told us that our mother is on this continent, and the captain is with her."

"When you leave, don't forget to tell Captain Chen that we will find his father."

Ning Rongrong wanted to persuade her, but was stopped by Zhu Zhuqing.

This was a decision made by the two sisters, and no one else had the right to interfere, especially as it involved a divine test.

……

Everyone sat on the stones outside the archway and talked for a long time.

The two sisters were reluctant to part with everyone, but in order to fulfill their "family" destiny, they had to stay.

"By the way, do you still remember Lone Wolf?" Ning Tianchen asked.

Yudie nodded, then became a little confused.

The lone wolf suffered the same treatment as Zhang Chenghuan and had been sent out of Butterfly Valley. Why mention him?
Ning Tianchen: "When we leave, we will contact him and try to recruit him."

"In the future, you will need a local guide when traveling on this continent. He is the most suitable person."

Compared to Zhang Chenghuan and the Cang family, Ning Tianchen would rather believe in the lone wolf.

Cooperating with big families will naturally make things go smoothly, but these big families are not easy to deal with. If you don’t let them get any benefits, will they be willing to help?
The lone wolf was being hunted by his enemies, and when the two sisters were traveling on the continent, they probably had the strength of a Soul Douluo.

Such strength can not only suppress the lone wolf, but also help him to take revenge, making him wholeheartedly lead the two of them.

After a pause, Ning Tianchen told the two sisters what he knew about the Lieyang royal family.

The Fiery Sun Empire must have some ambitions for hiding such a powerful person in secret.

The unification of the Sun and Moon Continent may happen in the present. This is the general trend, and Ning Tianchen certainly does not want the two sisters to blindly support a certain country after "coming out".

In response to his suggestions, the two sisters took out a notebook from their soul guide and wrote them down one by one.

When Ning Tianchen finished speaking, Caidie made a face at him and said, "Don't worry, we are not children, we will act cautiously."

Yudie said seriously: "Cai'er is right. Our goal of staying here is just to complete the assessment. We will not interfere in irrelevant matters."

"Don't worry, this continent is not home to man-eating beasts. Besides, we are not weak, so it is not easy for us to get into trouble." (End of this chapter)
