Douluo Continent: The Ten Kings of Hell, I am the Emperor of the Underworld

Chapter 14 Borrowing a Path to the Underworld, Tang Hao Appears

[Divine Trial Three: Countless souls lie within the two great empires, the Spirit Hall, and the three upper sects of the Douluo Continent. Perform rituals to deliver all these souls to the afterlife to complete the third trial.]

This Shadow Serpent is about 5,000 years old, which should be far beyond the absorption limit of the third soul ring, but Ning Qiuyang still absorbed it very smoothly.

Now, in his Ten Kings of Hell Tower, the first three levels—King Qin Guang, King Chu Jiang, and King Song Di—have all opened their eyes.

However, now that I have accumulated three divine trials and my strength has improved significantly, it's time to consider completing the divine trials.

"Qiuyang, how was the harvest this time?"

Ning Fengzhi didn't even ask whether Ning Qiuyang's soul ring absorption went smoothly or not, since it was going incredibly smoothly anyway. However, he was very interested in what kind of heaven-defying soul skill Ning Qiuyang had acquired.

Ning Qiuyang did not answer directly; his third spirit ring lit up on its own.

The next moment, Ning Qiuyang disappeared from Ning Fengzhi and the others' sight.

"Dad, where did Qiuyang go?"

Before Ning Fengzhi could answer, Ning Qiuyang's voice rang out from behind Ning Rongrong.

"Of course I'm here."

"Yeah~"

Ning Rongrong was startled and quickly turned around.

“You…” Ning Rongrong’s big eyes were full of doubt.

"Brother Qiuyang, how did you do that?"

Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo were equally curious, because even they hadn't been able to figure out how Ning Qiuyang had disappeared and then suddenly reappeared behind Ning Rongrong.

Ning Qiuyang explained, "My third soul skill is called Borrowing a Path to the Underworld."

"Using my third soul skill, I can travel between the yin and yang gaps, which can be very useful whether I'm running away or fighting enemies."

Previously, Ning Qiuyang couldn't see through Tang San's Ghost Shadow Steps for a while, but now that he has the Soul Skill of Borrowing the Underworld, it is much stronger than Ghost Shadow Steps.

Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo were well aware of just how powerful this soul skill was.

If they possessed such powerful soul skills, they would dare to fight even a peerless Douluo.

Ning Rongrong thought that if she had this soul skill, it would be so convenient to play hide-and-seek, scare people, or sneak out to play.

Unfortunately, even if her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda were to become the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, it would still be a support-type martial soul, making it impossible for her to master this skill.

"Now that Qiuyang has obtained his third spirit ring, it's time for us to go back."

Their journey from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to Sunset Forest, then to Heaven Dou City, and finally to Star Dou Great Forest took more than half a month. They successfully completed all their objectives, and even had many unexpected surprises.

Ning Qiuyang and his group have already ventured quite a distance into the Star Dou Great Forest; it will take them more than a day just to walk out.

That evening, the group stopped at a flat spot to rest before setting off again the next day.

During his break, Ning Qiuyang began researching his third area of ​​expertise.

His first two domains are the Domain of the Dead and the Domain of Soul Devourer, and this third domain can be called the Domain of Shadow.

In this realm, the effect of his third soul skill can be greatly enhanced. His Underworld Passage in the Shadow Realm can almost achieve the effect of teleportation.

With the acquisition of three spirit rings, Ning Qiuyang's strength is vastly different from before.

His current soul power is level 33. In addition to the accumulation of immortal herbs, the soul ring of the Shadow Serpent has also increased his soul power considerably.

The night in the Starry Sky Forest was almost completely dark, and the fire that Ning Qiuyang and his companions lit was practically the only source of light.

With two Super Douluo present, they weren't worried about attracting soul beasts.

Suddenly, in the middle of the night, Ning Qiuyang's martial spirit issued a warning.

"Who?"

Ning Qiuyang suddenly opened his eyes.

A figure dressed in black robes was watching him from the treetops not far away.

As soon as Ning Qiuyang's voice rang out, the martial souls of Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo were already summoned. "Who are you?" Gu Rong demanded loudly.

The figure on the treetop unrestrainedly released the aura of a Title Douluo, an aura that was almost identical to, or even surpassed, that of the ancient banyan tree.

"A Titled Douluo? And a Super Douluo at that?"

They couldn't understand why a Super Douluo would appear here, let alone why he would show hostility.

The figure on the treetop ignored Chen Xin and Gu Rong, and coldly said to Ning Qiuyang:

"Kid, don't think you can do whatever you want just because you have some talent. I'm here today to give you a warning. If you dare to mess with someone you can't afford to mess with again, your end will be miserable."

That's it, this guy must be Tang Hao.

Ning Qiuyang has confirmed the identity of the man in black.

That's right. Besides Tang Hao and his son, who else could be so shameless?

It was Tang San who initiated the challenge, but when it came to Tang Hao, it became Ning Qiuyang doing whatever he wanted. What a double standard!

"Insanity!"

Bone Douluo let out a cold shout.

No one has ever dared to say such a thing to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Do you think you're the Pope of the Spirit Hall?

Although he and Sword Douluo sometimes disliked Ning Qiuyang, they meant no harm.

On the contrary, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo greatly admired Ning Qiuyang.

Knowing that Ning Qiuyang, if he continues to grow, will definitely become the top Soul Master in Douluo Continent, without exception.

Bone Douluo directly activated his Martial Soul, and a huge bone dragon appeared, crashing straight down towards Tang Hao on the treetop.

Tang Hao had previously helped Tang San absorb the spirit ring, and when Yu Xiaogang was poisoned, he waited a while longer before coming to find Ning Qiuyang.

He came only to warn Ning Qiuyang; he didn't intend to take action.

Moreover, even if they were to fight, he really wouldn't be a match for Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo combined.

Although Tang San's companions were all blessed with extraordinary abilities and could easily challenge opponents of higher levels, Tang Hao was still aware of the situation.

Chen Xin's Seven Kill Sword is also a top-tier weapon spirit, no less powerful than his Clear Sky Hammer.

Moreover, Chen Xin's soul power level is higher than his, and there is also Gu Rong with the same soul power level as Tang Hao. He would be crazy to fight these two.

Seeing that Tang Hao was about to run away after making his threats, Ning Qiuyang had an idea.

"Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Bone, if anything happens to me in the future, or if I suddenly disappear, you don't need to do anything else, just go and kill Tang San to avenge me."

"You bastard, how dare you!"

Tang Hao was about to leave when he heard Ning Qiuyang's words and his eyes widened in fury.

"You little beast, do you want to die?"

He was the one who threatened Ning Qiuyang, but he couldn't stand being threatened in return by Ning Qiuyang.

The Haotian Hammer appeared in Tang Hao's hand, and he clashed head-on with Gu Rong.

Tang Hao fell from the treetop, and the ancient banyan tree retreated repeatedly, seemingly at a slight disadvantage.

"Haotian Hammer? You're from the Haotian Sect?" Ning Fengzhi exclaimed in surprise.

"The Clear Sky Sect has been closed off from the world for many years, and no disciples from the sect have ventured into the world of Soul Masters. The only one who could be here is Tang Hao, the Clear Sky Douluo from back then, right?"

Ning Fengzhi also guessed Tang Hao's identity.

Tang Hao's cloak was blown off by the wind, revealing his gray hair and weathered appearance.

"It is indeed me, Haotian Douluo Tang Hao!"
