Chapter 242. Dividing Yu Yuanzhen into Two Equal Parts.
After Ghost Douluo left, the four clans of Wind, Fire, Water, and Thunder began to discuss.
"What should we do?" Huo Lian said solemnly.
"The Spirit Hall is so powerful. Is there really no other option but to submit to it?" Shui Ningbing glanced at Yu Luoguan nearby.
Yu Luoguan pondered for a moment, then said, "Don't worry, everyone. While the Spirit Hall may be powerful, it's not a free-for-all. Our Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan isn't afraid of it. Furthermore, the three major clans are closely related, and the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan won't sit idly by and watch the Spirit Hall grow stronger."
"With our two major clans here, the Spirit Hall won't be able to forcibly conquer Element City."
"In that case, I'll have to trouble you," Feng Yutian said.
Yu Luoguan immediately drafted two letters, one to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan and one to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan, seeking their support.
Upon receiving this letter,
Gu Rong of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect was shocked and said, "Although the Spirit Hall used to act boldly, they were still cautious. Now, they're becoming increasingly overbearing."
Ning Fengzhi nodded and said, "We must help them. Otherwise, after the Spirit Hall subjugates the Wind, Fire, and Water Clans, their strength will only grow even stronger, which won't benefit us."
"Master, let's mobilize the entire Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect this time," Chen Xin said.
Ning Fengzhi nodded.
Meanwhile, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan was also in an uproar over this incident.
Yu Yuanzhen immediately decided to head for Element City. After all, the Spirit Hall viewed Element City as a piece of meat, and so did the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan.
He couldn't sit idly by and watch the Spirit Hall devour his prey.
In the Spirit Hall, Qian Xunji and Yu Luomian were toasting each other. While they were feasting, Liu Erlong, with a scowl on her face, poured wine from a wine jug for the two men she hated the most.
Qianxunji raised his glass and suddenly said,
"Yu Luomian, I wonder what you think of the position of Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Sect Leader?"
Yu Luomian shuddered at this and quickly asked, "Your Holiness, why do you ask? My eldest brother is the leader of our Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Sect."
Qianxunji asked, "Father-in-law, just tell me straight away. Do you have any thoughts on that position?"
Yu Luomian hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
"Well, what if I have thoughts? What if I don't? Your Holiness, my talent isn't as good as my eldest brother's. He's now a Level 96 Super Douluo, while I'm only a Level 89 Soul Douluo, with no hope of ever achieving a title."
Qianxunji took out a pill and handed it to Yu Luomian, saying, "Take it and try it."
Yu Luomian took the pill, hesitated for a moment, then swallowed it.
The next moment, his Soul Power skyrocketed, rising from Level 89 to Level 90.
Yu Luomian opened his eyes in surprise and excitedly declared, "I've been promoted to Titled Douluo."
"No, I'm Quasi-Titled Douluo," Qianxunji said, "You're only missing one spirit ring. I'll help you get this one too." Qianxunji produced a spirit bead and handed it to Yu Luomian.
Then, Liu Erlong was stunned to witness the birth of a Titled Douluo.
Her own ascension to Titled Douluo was far from joyful! Qianxunji was so terrifying, he could create a Titled Douluo with a flick of his hand. Was there any hope for Xiaogang?
Yellow, purple, black, black, black.
The power of a Level 91 Titled Douluo was truly magnificent. Was this truly a Titled Douluo? Yu Luomian was intoxicated, yet at the same time, he was deeply shocked by Qianxunji's methods.
"Your Holiness, are you referring to my interest in the position of leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan?"
Qian Xunji said, "I can help you secure this position, but the process may be bloody. I hope you won't resent me."
Yu Luomian understood and said, "Your Holiness, how could I possibly resent you for such a great favor?"
The two began to toast each other. After a while, Liu Erlong finally realized what was happening and looked at her father in horror.
Yu Luomian was actually willing to sell out for power and status.
In Element City, Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, Gu Rong, and Yu Yuanzhen, all the other powerful figures, arrived.
Ning Fengzhi said, "Fellow clan leaders, rest assured. Our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect will ensure your independence. With me mediating, I believe Spirit Hall will abandon this unrealistic idea."
Feng Yutian said gratefully, "On behalf of all three clans, I thank the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect for your support."
Yu Yuanzhen said, "Well, the ten days are almost up. With me, Sect Master Ning, and the two Douluos, Sword Bone, here, Spirit Hall wouldn't dare force you into amalgamation."
At the expiration date, Ghost Douluo walked in. Seeing Ning Fengzhi, Yu Yuanzhen, and Sword Bone Douluo present, he ignored them and turned to the Feng, Fire, and Water clans, asking,
"The ten days are up. What are your three clans' responses?"
Feng Yutian said, "Elder Ghost Douluo, our Feng clan is a clan of independent spirit masters. We seek freedom and do not wish to submit to Spirit Hall."
Elder Ghost Douluo nodded, glancing at the other two clans.
They expressed the same sentiment.
Ghost Douluo said, "Is this the attitude of your three clans?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Yuanzhen flung the teacup at Ghost's feet and said contemptuously, "Kid, this is the attitude of the Four Elemental City. Go back and tell Qianxunji that with me here, Elemental City will not submit to the Spirit Hall. Tell him to give up on that idea."
Ghost said, "No need to reply. Today, the three Elemental City clans must join, whether they want to or not. They must join."
"You want to fight?" Yu Yuanzhen sneered at Ghost. Although Ghost also possessed the strength of a Level 95 Super Douluo, Yu Yuanzhen was confident that his Level 96 Super Douluo and the power of his Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus spirit would easily overwhelm Ghost, not to mention the two Titled Douluos beside him, Sword Bone.
"No, if Sect Master Yu seeks an opponent, please follow me," Ghost Douluo said.
Yu Yuanzhen and Ning Fengzhi looked at each other in surprise, each reading the other's thoughts.
Could it be that the Spirit Hall had deployed its offerings this time?
"What's the matter, Master Yu, are you scared?" Ghost Douluo asked playfully.
"Scared?" Yu Yuanzhen stood up and said, "I've been practicing for many years, and I've never been scared before a fight."
He then said to Sword Bone Douluo in a forced voice, "You'll be my backup later."
The two Titled Douluos, Sword Bone and Sword Bone, nodded.
Ghost Douluo then brought Yu Yuanzhen, the heads of the Wind, Fire, and Water families, and the three members of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect to the main square of Element City.
Ghost Douluo approached a blue-haired woman in a white training suit and gestured toward her, who nodded.
Sword Bone Douluo and Yu Yuanzhen immediately focused their attention on the woman, only to discover that her spirit power was so restrained that it was practically impossible to sense her level.
Yu Yuanzhen felt a pang of solemnity. He feared the Spirit Hall's worshippers the most, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't imagine such a figure even existing in the Spirit Hall.
Yu Yuanzhen moved to one side of the square and looked at the woman.
"Come and die, you rats," the woman said flatly.
"You are a little too arrogant." Yu Yuanzhen was momentarily confused about her situation.
The woman stopped talking!
Seeing this, Yu Yuanzhen felt slighted and immediately used Dragon Transformation.
Dragon claws, dragon legs, dragon tail, dragon wings, dragon belly, dragon head.
With a tremor of thunder, a massive dragon tens of meters long appeared, its body shrouded in yellow, purple, black, and black spirit rings.
Lightning snakes coiled and swirled around him. The ninety-sixth-level Super Douluo overwhelmed the entire arena, even the sky itself trembling with thunder and trembling with his Martial Spirit.
Gu Rong exclaimed, "What a Thunder Douluo, Yu Yuanzhen! He truly deserves to be the world's number one beast spirit."
Ning Fengzhi was about to say something when Chen Xin's voice rang out, "Something's wrong with that woman."
Ning Fengzhi followed Chen Xin's words and looked over. Facing the might of the Thunder Douluo, the woman closed her eyes, one hand gripping the hilt of the peach wood sword behind her, and then remained motionless.
"What is she doing?" Gu Rong asked.
"This is the calm and composed state a swordsman achieves when facing any formidable foe." Chen Xin took a deep breath and said, "This duel with Yu Yuanzhen is going to be tough."
Ning Fengzhi, upon hearing Chen Xin's words, quickly said, "Things are going to get out of hand. Uncle Jian and Uncle Gu, you two should go and help the old Dragon King, Yu Yuanzhen."
"Yes, Sect Master."
The woman seemed dwarfed by the tens-meter-long Thunder Dragon. Everyone present was overwhelmed by Yu Yuanzhen's might.
Yu Yuanzhen was unsure of her intentions. As the dragon swam, Yu Yuanzhen decided to launch a probing attack.
The Thunder Dragon opened its mouth, lightning converged, and a lightning snake as thick as a bucket spit out at the woman.
As the attack approached, the woman opened her eyes, and supreme sword intent surged forth. She swung the peach wood sword—
Chen Xin's eyes widened, trying to grasp something. This was a sword intent he hadn't even grasped from his father!
For a moment, no one realized what was happening.
The lightning split in two, dispersing in both directions. The slash pierced through the lightning and streaked through the Thunder Dragon's body. The dragon froze in the sky for a moment before instantly collapsing.
The two halves of its body fell from the sky.
Ning Fengzhi was the first to react. He took a closer look and saw that Yu Yuanzhen's body had been sliced vertically, from the head down to the waist.
He had long since stopped breathing. If the two halves of his face were put together, one could see the shock on his face. Sword energy lingered around his flesh, acting like a barrier to prevent the loss of blood and organs, preventing a bloody mess.
"This!" Gu Rong's face was filled with fear.
A Titled Douluo far more powerful than himself had been killed instantly in a single exchange.
Ning Fengzhi's expression grew even more unnatural. Yu Yuanzhen, Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen, had perished in such a chaotic manner.
He didn't even have a chance to save himself.
Ghost summoned two cardinals and said, "Pull out the soul bones."
"Wait until the sword energy dissipates," the blue-haired woman said calmly, retracting her peach wood sword.
After a long moment, Yu Yuanzhen's blood and organs flowed out, leaving the scene a bloody mess. The Spirit Hall finally went up to count the spoils.
The soul bones plucked from Yu Yuanzhen were only intact limb bones; the torso and head soul bones had been cut in two, rendering them unusable.
Seeing the two solid soul bones sliced open, Ning Fengzhi swallowed hard.
"So, Sect Master Ning, do you wish to challenge our Spirit Hall's Sword Saint?" Ghost Douluo's cold voice reached Ning Fengzhi's ears.
Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi broke out in a cold sweat. Yu Yuanzhen's title as the strongest beast spirit of the attacking system had been directly split in half, and the division was quite neat. He, a man with no combat power at all, had gone up against him, and even if the opponent had sliced him into pieces, he wouldn't have been able to fight back.
Even hiding behind Sword Bone Douluo, Ning Fengzhi felt no sense of security.
To save his own skin, Ning Fengzhi quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect welcomes the three major families joining the Spirit Hall. I, Ning Fengzhi, came here only to persuade them to agree to your Spirit Hall's terms. Who knew Yu Yuanzhen would be so tactless?"
Upon hearing Ning Fengzhi's words, the three families of Wind, Fire, and Water were instantly enraged.
Huo Lian said, "Sect Master Ning, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person."
"You're the leader of a sect, and yet you're so spineless," Shui Ningbing said in disgust.
Feng Yutian said, "That's not what you said when we came to Element City."
Ning Fengzhi said, "Three clan heads, please don't slander me, Ning Fengzhi. I advise you to be sensible and join the Spirit Hall."
Guimei looked at Ning Fengzhi with amusement. The Spirit Hall's people could tell what was going on in this precious creature's mind with just a flick of their toes.
But seeing Ning Fengzhi's attitude was actually a bit amusing.
"Alright, the three clans of Element City, what are your opinions?" Guimei said.
"My Feng clan is willing to join the Spirit Hall," Feng Yutian said.
Huo Lian said, "The Huo clan is willing to submit to the Spirit Hall."
There was no other way. Ning Fengzhi himself was terrified when he saw Yu Yuanzhen bisected, let alone the three clan heads.
"Since that's the case, then sign these things."
Guimei threw Qian Xunji's contract at the three clans. With a knife at their necks, the three clans had no choice but to sign the documents.
From then on, Element City instantly belonged to the Spirit Hall.
When Ning Fengzhi saw this scene, he felt a sense of relief, yet also a bit heartbroken.
The Spirit Hall was growing stronger, and he had lost a Titled Douluo as powerful as Yu Yuanzhen. What was he going to do in the future?
First it was the Clear Sky Sect, then the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Sect. Would it be my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect next?
