Douluo's Spiritual Pearl and Divine Sword

Yin Mengyang and Chen Xin meditated for an entire day and night. On the third day, they both awoke at the same time.

This coincided with the time when the outer disciples of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan were doing their morning exercises As they did, a massive phenomenon in the sky and the earth caught everyone's attention. The sky appeared to split in two, as if cut by a sharp weapon. Then, the clear, cloudless weather turned ominous with thunder rumbling loudly, making everyone feel a heavy pressure.

Inside the hall Ning Fengzhi and the others were filled with excitement "It's a success! Uncle Jian and Uncle Ying have both broken through" they said.

Chen Xin opened his eyes first his white hair fluttering as though moved by an unseen wind and his presence was even more majestic than before his power far beyond what it once was.

"Old sword, what level are you now? I can't even see it" Gu Rong asked in astonishment.

"Level ninety-eight!" Chen Xin replied stunned. Then, he turned to Tianlin and said "Xiaotian, you told me before that the Hunyuan Immortal Grass would raise me to level ninety-eight. That's true, but I thought I'd only be at the beginning of level ninety-eight. However I'm in the middle of it now, and my soul power is incredibly condensed."

"That's natural. The soul power from Hunyuan Immortal Grass isn't like the inferior products. It's a top-tier immortal herb. The condensed soul power will help you reach level ninety-nine in the future" Jun Tianlin said with a smile.

"Mid-level ninety-eight. My goodness, old man Jian, you're too strong now! I think even Tang Hao may not be your match" Gu Rong said both happy for his old friend and a bit lonely.

He thought that after breaking through level 96 he had finally caught up with Chen Xin, but now the gap between their strengths had only grown.

"Old Bone, don't underestimate yourself. I can see that your martial soul seems to have evolved, and your soul power is at the peak of level 96 and with time, breaking through to level 97 will be easy" Chen Xin reassured.

With Chen Xin at level ninety-eight his perception of Gu Rong's power was clearer and when soul power reaches level ninety-five or higher, each level marks a significant qualitative leap.

Jun Tianlin felt half-relieved. Since joining the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan, he had always worried about the potential extinction of the clan, so he had trained tirelessly to protect everyone He had never considered abandoning them While he wasn't inherently kind or righteous, he was not the type to forget his roots.

However, today he realized his earlier misunderstanding—he had thought that only his own strength could resolve the looming disaster But no matter how much he trained, by the time the Soul Hunting Operation took place he would only be at best a Soul Sage, and even then struggling against an ordinary Titled Douluo.

Today, he discovered the right path not just strengthening himself, but also strengthening the clan. With Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo, the real power of the clan was clear.

The combination of Ning Fengzhi, who had broken through to level 80, and Sword Douluo, who had reached level 98, would produce tremendous results. Unless Qian Daoliu or Bibi Dong intervened personally, any number of ordinary Titled Douluo would be of little threat.

The clan belonged to everyone, and they should work together to protect it. That was the truth Tianlin realized today.

At this moment, Yin mengyang also opened his eyes. He stood up and shot toward Tianlin like a bolt of lightning "Xiaotian, thank you! I've succeeded. The bottleneck that has troubled me for nearly twenty years has finally broken!"

Yin mengyang's excitement was as great as Ning Fengzhi's from earlier. After all, becoming a Titled Douluo had always been his dream.

"Haha, old Eagle, congratulations! Feng Zhi also broke through to level 80 yesterday. We're going to hunt soul beasts together. With our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile clan now having three Douluo, no—once the old poisonous creature returns, we'll have four Douluo" Gu Rong said happily.

Even Spirit Hall only openly has three Douluo It seemed that the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan was now among the strongest sects on the continent.

"Uncle Ning, I have a suggestion. It's better not to spread the news about your breakthrough to the eighth ring, as well as Grandpa Bone and Grandpa Sword's breakthroughs" Tianlin advised "A tree that stands out in the forest is destroyed by the wind. Keeping a low profile will help us survive better."

Ning Fengzhi agreed "A clan can be strong, but not too strong, or it will provoke other forces, including the Tiandou Empire, which has always supported us. Maybe one day, when you and Ning Rongrong have grown up, and the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan is invincible, we can show our strength openly. But it's too early now."

"Xiaotian, you're right. But the phenomenon we just made can't be hidden Fortunately, Uncle yang and Uncle Jian broke through almost at the same time. We can say the phenomenon was caused by Uncle Yang's breakthrough to Titled Douluo."

Ning Fengzhi quickly came up with an excuse. Yin mengyang's martial soul, the Thunder-Feathered Golden Eagle, which had a powerful thunder attribute, matched the thunderous vision from earlier. No one would suspect anything.

This explanation would not only conceal the full strength of the sect, but it would also reveal just enough to show that the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan now had three Douluo. This would keep other forces from underestimating them.

The six of them—Ning Fengzhi, the three elders, Tianlin, and Ning Rongrong—walked out of the Seven Treasures Hall. Outside, a large group of outer disciples had gathered, having witnessed the strange phenomenon. Ning Fengzhi had to reassure them and the spies from other forces with a plausible explanation.

But as they stepped outside, Ning Fengzhi was faced with a small problem that made him want to laugh.

As the clan head Ning Fengzhi had always maintained an air of seriousness, presenting himself as calm, fair, and majestic. He rarely laughed, and even when he did, it was always a light, gentle smile. He had been trained to maintain this composure, never letting his emotions show unless absolutely necessary.

"Old sword, what's wrong with Feng Zhi?" Gu Rong asked Chen Xin, amused.

"He can't help it. He's too happy," Chen Xin replied with a grin.

Indeed, Ning Fengzhi was overwhelmed with joy. Within a single day, the strength of the clan had grown exponentially. He had to share the good news with his disciples. How could he hold back?

Clearing his throat, Ning Fengzhi composed himself and reminded himself to remain the dignified clan head he was known to be "Ahem. Fellow disciples, you must be curious about what just happened. Well, I have great news. Our Third Elder, Yin mengyang, has officially reached the Titled Douluo level, with the breakthrough witnessed by Uncle Jian and Uncle bone!"

The disciples cheered, and Ning Fengzhi, despite his best efforts to remain composed couldn't suppress his smile any longer.
