"The rewards for the new mission are, as always, incredibly generous! But since the system suggests stabilizing my cultivation for a month first, I'd better not rush to break through," Yao Xuan muttered with a faint smile of excitement as he reviewed the new system mission.
According to the Divine-Level Cultivation Method, upon advancing to the rank of Great Soul Master, Yao Xuan would gain access to yet another divine-level spiritual cultivation technique. In Douluo Continent, soul power was indeed vital, but Yao Xuan understood that intangible and formless spiritual power was no less significant.
If soul power served as the cornerstone for activating martial souls and unleashing soul skills, then spiritual power was the essence for controlling martial souls and refining soul skills. Only by possessing formidable spiritual power could one wield soul skills with seamless precision, unleashing their true might.
In the original timeline, Tang San's ability to defeat opponents above his rank with the seemingly feeble Blue Silver Grass was largely due to his cultivation of the "Purple Demon Eyes," granting him spiritual power far surpassing ordinary soul masters. His success had little to do with the laughable training methods of Yu Xiaogang.
However, while Douluo Continent offered soul power meditation techniques, it lacked specialized methods for cultivating spiritual power. Most soul masters' spiritual power merely increased in tandem with their cultivation.
Thus, the acquisition of a divine-level spiritual cultivation technique would make Yao Xuan's strength soar to unprecedented heights. Even so, Yao Xuan wasn't impulsive. Since the system had advised stabilizing his cultivation realm, he had no intention of rushing the breakthrough.
As a transmigrator, Yao Xuan knew that a solid foundation was the key to becoming a true powerhouse. Impatience and recklessness would only lead to disaster in the future.
"Since that's the case, let's start with subjugating the Spirit Hall. As for the Heaven Dou Empire, the Star Luo Empire, and the Upper Three Clans, they still have their uses for now. I'll deal with them later," Yao Xuan decided as he left the summoning space and summoned Kesha.
"Kesha, take me to Spirit City!" Yao Xuan commanded calmly.
"As you wish, Master!" Kesha replied with a sweet smile, enveloping Yao Xuan in her spatial power. In mere breaths, they appeared outside Spirit City.
Spirit City, the headquarters of the Spirit Hall, was not particularly large in area but was undeniably majestic. The city's walls were uniquely hexagonal rather than the typical quadrilateral, standing eighty meters tall and over thirty meters thick, constructed entirely of granite and radiating an imposing aura.
Patrolling atop the walls were not ordinary soldiers but battle soul masters clad in the distinct attire of the Spirit Hall. From a distance, Yao Xuan observed the entire city encircling a hill known as Spirit Sacred Mountain. Three grand and opulent buildings crowned the hill, visible even from the city's outskirts.
Among these, the most magnificent structure sat halfway up the hill. It was a golden palace with a columnar structure and domed roof, gleaming brilliantly under the sunlight. This was none other than the Pope's Palace, residence and workplace of Bibi Dong, the Spirit Hall's leader and one of the three beauties of the Spirit Hall. In the future, after subjugating Bibi Dong, Yao Xuan planned to claim it as his abode.
To one side of the Pope's Palace stood the Elder's Hall, slightly less grand but exuding an air of ancient authority. This was the second power center of the Spirit Hall, reserved for elders who had reached the Titled Douluo rank. Even Bibi Dong, as Pope, could not ignore their influence. Among them resided Qian Daoliu, the Spirit Hall's strongest expert, along with the Seven Worship Elders who served under him.
At the summit of Spirit Sacred Mountain stood a pristine white building, solemn and dignified, one-third the size of the Pope's Palace. Yao Xuan, as a transmigrator, recognized it immediately: the Douluo Hall, a sacred site where deceased Titled Douluo were honored.
"From tomorrow onward, the Spirit Hall will have a new master—that's me!" Yao Xuan declared, gazing at the distant Spirit City. He turned to Kesha, issuing further instructions. "Kesha, ensure you show restraint. Do not kill anyone, especially the Pope, Bibi Dong. She is not to be harmed. Understood?"
"Understood, Master," Kesha replied, nodding respectfully.
Although the elders of the Spirit Hall were Titled Douluo, they were no match for Kesha, whose power as a Level 125 First-Class God allowed her to obliterate them effortlessly. However, Yao Xuan sought their submission, not their deaths, to maintain the Spirit Hall's strength.
"Excellent! Kesha, do you have methods to control Titled Douluo?" Yao Xuan asked.
"Of course, Master! By implanting bio-chips developed by the Angel Clan into their brains, we can monitor their thoughts. If they show signs of rebellion, we can punish them instantly—or eliminate them if necessary," Kesha answered confidently.
"Bio-chips, huh? That's an option," Yao Xuan mused. While such measures could control the elders, he deemed them inappropriate for someone like Bibi Dong, who would become his companion in the future.
Ding!
