Douluo Continent: The Holy Evil Emperor

A 100,000-year soul ring and a 100,000-year soul bone are both great fortunes for a soul master. Absorbing a 100,000-year soul bone, combined with the vast resources that Jing Hongchen has poured into him, makes it not impossible to break through to the Soul Saint realm.

He has now reached level 67, and there is still more than a year before the next competition, which is enough time for him to break through to the Soul Saint level.

That's considered a small opening.

However, there are differences even among those who are overpowered. When he sees Ye Qing, a Soul Douluo with a full set of 100,000-year soul rings, his Dao Heart may shatter in an instant.

(Ye Qing: One punch shattered my dream of becoming a genius. Coach, I'm just an ordinary person.)

Xiao Hongchen had no time to participate in any exchange student program, and Jing Hongchen had no reason to go to Shrek Academy, so the mutual learning between the two academies naturally came to nothing.

Let's take a look back at our original protagonist, Huo Yuhao, and see what he's doing...

Holy crap, he's a Soul Emperor!

A huge black spirit ring gradually disappeared into Huo Yuhao's body, and his aura also rapidly increased, eventually settling at level sixty-three.

Beside him was a huge soul beast corpse, identified as a 60,000-year-old dark cyclope, possessing both dark and spiritual attributes. The age of this soul ring was almost equivalent to the eighth soul ring of a normal Soul Douluo.

It can only be said that the chosen one of destiny truly lives up to his name; even after being almost completely exploited by Ye Qing, he was still saved by the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Since Huo Yuhao and Ning Tian confirmed their relationship three years ago, their relationship has become increasingly passionate. Anyone who has read the original novel knows Huo Yuhao's personality; he was born to be someone else's dog.

Having met Ning Tian, ​​a girlfriend who is well-educated, reasonable, elegant, gentle and considerate, Huo Yuhao's romantic mind is more passionate than ever before. He's practically ready to use the "Three Wonders of Hao and Ning" to express his true feelings.

The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School was extremely satisfied with Huo Yuhao, their future son-in-law, and poured a lot of resources into him as if they were free.

This made Tianmeng Ice Silkworm exclaim that it was like Chinese New Year.

Our little Huo has finally made it! With the massive resources of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, not only has the deficit from his childhood been quickly and completely made up for, but his cultivation has also taken off like a rocket.

After all, he is a chosen one, and without the extreme attributes that hinder his cultivation speed, it is not surprising that he can reach the Soul Emperor level.

If he weren't so young, only sixteen years old now, if he were just a year older and participated in the competition at eighteen, he would definitely be considered a Soul Saint in the arena.

I wonder if the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School will be tempted to participate in this Mingdu Tournament and then spend more money to secure Huo Dui's Soul Saint status.

As for Huo Yuhao, he was completely blacklisted at Shrek Academy, and there was no possibility of him receiving any special training.

Like Ning Tian and Dai Yueheng, other disciples of aristocratic families, he had his path to the Sea God Pavilion blocked by the Shrek Academy's higher-ups.

There are gains and losses. Once you embark on one path, it means you'll never have the chance to take another. Huo Yuhao chose the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, so naturally he had no chance to step onto the Shrek Academy path.

But our Lord Hodo is a hopeless romantic, he doesn't care at all.

Even the Tang Clan withdrew.

Originally, he wanted to abandon the Tang Sect's unique skills and return them to the Tang Sect, but Bei Bei refused. He only asked him to swear an oath with his martial soul that he would not pass them on to outsiders, including the people of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School. He could only cultivate them himself. Then he agreed to Huo Yuhao's withdrawal.

Tang Ya has disappeared, and the Tang Clan is now practically defunct.

Although Huo Yuhao's departure was heartbreaking for Bei Bei, he had watched Huo Yuhao grow up and still felt a certain affection for him. All Bei Bei could do was preserve that affection and protect the Tang Sect's unique skills.

Huo Yuhao wasn't ungrateful. After swearing with his martial soul that he would never pass on the Tang Sect's secret techniques, he turned around and put his arm around Ning Tian's waist, heading towards the pinnacle of his dog life.

(Years later, the now elderly Limit Douluo Huo Yuhao, despite the pain of his shattered martial soul, wrote down all the Tang Sect's ultimate techniques, making them the Nine Treasures Sect's supreme techniques, passed down through the ages in the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile School. Then he peacefully closed his eyes and passed away contentedly.)

(Beibei: ???)

Of course, that all happened later.

And most of the people in their class have entered the inner academy.

Including Princess Tang.

However, our Princess Tang's condition became increasingly obsessive, almost turning her into a shut-in like Ye Qing. She rarely went out in the past three years, except when she was carrying out the inner court's inspection team missions. She spent most of her time cultivating.

Her cultivation level was even more terrifying, reaching level sixty-eight, which was close to that of a Soul Saint.

So, in the early stages, she was a complete lazybones. Even though her soul was partly separated by Tang San and hasn't been reattached yet, this body is the true daughter of a god-king, which is the cultivation speed this body should have.

If she hadn't been so lazy before the age of twelve, she would at least be a Soul Saint by now.

Apart from Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er, whose cultivation speeds were somewhat outrageous due to their overpowered abilities, the cultivation speeds of the others were at a normal level.

Ning Tian had just broken through to Soul King not long ago. Xiao Xiao was slightly behind Ning Tian, ​​Jiang Nannan was one level above Ning Tian, ​​and Xu Sanshi was one level away from breaking through to Soul Emperor. On the contrary, Lao Bei did not crash this time, and his cultivation was the same as Huo Yuhao's, at level 63 Soul Emperor.

So Tang Ya should have disappeared long ago, you idiot! Women only slow down your cultivation! (Slams table in anguish)

It's alright, Elder Xieyan will take good care of her for you. I will take care of your wife, so don't worry!

After eating and drinking his fill, Ye Qing reverted to his identity as the Nightmare Douluo, rode the Dong Qianqiu, and once again arrived at the Demon Forest. He then entered the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters with the gatekeepers kneeling in obeisance.

To obtain his eighth spirit ring, he naturally needed a target, and he had already found that target: the Sea Princess, who had cultivated for 600,000 years.

The seventh spirit ring wiped out the entire Great White Shark Demon Soul Clan, so let's use the eighth spirit ring to wipe out the Mermaid Clan.

The Great White Shark can be used as a mount, and so can mermaids!

"I wonder if those mermaids are doing well. I hope they won't disappoint me, hehehehe."

Chapter 253 Wow, what immense evil!

During these three years, Ye Qing never returned to the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters and stayed in Mingdu the whole time.

The main reason was that he disliked the somewhat disgusting headquarters of the Holy Spirit Cult, and the secondary reason was that Mingdu was more interesting and easier to make money in.

When he returned to the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters three years later, he found that nothing had changed.

The evil spirit masters continued doing what they were doing, completely ignoring the matter of promoting our great Asura God.

Ye Qing was speechless.

I can't carry it, I can't carry it at all.

Back in Shrek Academy, it was like this: a bunch of lazy, good-for-nothing war gods, like Old Deng, were constantly scheming against each other, with no thought of progress whatsoever. And now, at the Holy Spirit Cult, it's still the same—a complete bunch of lazy bums, only thinking about their own comfort.

No, you have to help me overthrow... oh no, you have to help me spread the glory of the Great God King Tang across the Douluo Continent!

I was hoping they would be more self-disciplined, but in the end I still have to put a carrot in front of them so they can see the benefits and then contribute to the development of Douluo Continent.

"It seems I'll have to take matters into my own hands." Ye Qing began to formulate new plans in his mind.

During these three years, besides pondering the matter of the Soul Armor, he also thought about how to spread Tang San's fame in his spare time. He basically had a complete plan in mind, and all that was left was to implement it.

The Holy Spirit Cult was naturally the best tool for him to realize his plans, but judging from the current situation, it was clear that Ye Xishui had suppressed his speech three years ago.

Looking at it this way, it seems so.

Ye Xishui wasn't really stupid. If it were those old fogies from the Sea God Pavilion, they might have been so tempted by Ye Qing's promises that they'd lost their bearings and started causing trouble on their own without stopping.

If it were this old witch who manipulated the Black and White Dragons at will, playing a trick like "Phoenix Playing with Two Dragons," she wouldn't be so easily fooled.

However, Ye Qing really misunderstood Ye Xishui this time. The Holy Spirit Cult was not that important to her. After Ye Qing's speech, she had no intention of interfering. Whether the Holy Spirit Cult was destroyed or not was of no concern to Ye Xishui.

Or rather, she secretly hoped that the Holy Spirit Cult would be destroyed, so that she could let go of her burdens and live with Long Xiaoyao.

The only Muggles are those ordinary evil spirit masters.

It was something like this: 'Elder, you only said you wanted to spread the name of the Asura God, but we have absolutely no idea how to do that!'

Ming Lei Douluo had wanted to bring this up with Ye Qing several times, but each time he was about to speak, Ye Qing, engrossed in developing the Soul Armor and not wanting to be disturbed, would give him a death stare, and the former would immediately tuck his tail between his legs and slip away.

It can only be described as a beautiful misunderstanding.

In the end, Ye Qing himself will have to take action.

"Master Zhongli, you have quite the refined taste." Ye Qing passed through the space and sat down in front of Zhongli Wu.

At this moment, the level 98 Holy Spirit Cult leader was brewing a pot of tea, looking thoughtfully at Tang Ya, who had just finished drinking the herbal soup and was in a dazed state.

Ye Qing did sense the fluctuations in space as he traversed, but he wasn't on guard. He remembered the aura of the Demon Soul Bone Shark King, and besides, it was impossible for any enemy to appear out of nowhere at the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters.

"Elder." Zhongli Wu nodded to Ye Qing, poured him a cup of tea, and pushed it in front of him.

"It seems the leader is training our Holy Maiden. Is there any progress?" Ye Qing toyed with his teacup but didn't drink from it.

It perfectly fits the stereotype of evil spirit masters. The teacup in Ye Qing's hand was probably made from the thigh bone of some unlucky guy. Ye Qing was afraid that he would vomit from disgust if he drank tea from such a thing.

It really is a 'bone china cup'.

Zhongli Wu didn't care. Looking at Tang Ya in front of him, he said with a proud face, "No progress is needed. The Holy Maiden is worthy of being the successor of the Holy Emperor. She is simply a genius that our Holy Sect has seen once in a thousand years. Even without my training, she can become a strong person like the Supreme Sect Master!"

A born evil spirit master!

Zhongli Wu had never seen such an evil Soul Master. Other evil Soul Masters had a pitifully low conversion rate to killing, and could basically only use the nutrients from a certain part of their body to provide themselves with assistance.

For example, souls, or bones; and even more demanding ones can only use specific types of 'items' such as blood or organs to enhance themselves, while other parts are of no help to them at all.

Take, for example, the brain-eating beast Soul Emperor Jili in the original work. Only eating brains helps his cultivation. Eating other parts is not entirely useless, but it is basically equivalent to nothing.

Tang Ya is different; this saintess is truly damn evil!

The Dark Blue Silver King can devour almost any nutrient indiscriminately, from internal organs to flesh and blood, from spirit to soul, and even ethereal emotions like fear. All of these can become food for the Dark Blue Silver King and nourishment for Tang Ya.

In other words, the energy utilization and conversion rates are off the charts; it's just that the energy being utilized doesn't follow the usual path.

If a malevolent spirit master like Jili has an energy conversion rate of 10% when killing someone, then...

Then Tang Ya's level is at least 80%!

Thanks to the butterfly effect brought about by Ye Qing, Tang Ya, whose cultivation level was already higher than in the original story, has now reached the bottleneck of level 70. She is only one soul ring away from reaching the Soul Saint level, which is a full year faster than in the original story.

How could this not surprise and delight Zhongli Wu? Gu Long Yan Feng, as his personal disciple, had been trained in the Holy Spirit Sect since childhood. He was the same age as Tang Ya, but he was still at level 65. On the contrary, Tang Ya, the Holy Maiden who joined the Holy Spirit Sect midway, had soared from Soul Master to Quasi-Soul Saint in just four years.

The main problem is that they killed fewer people than Yan Feng and his group. In the words of the Holy Spirit Cult, they used fewer resources but improved their cultivation faster.
