"Little bastard..." A hoarse voice sounded, and Tang Hao stared at Ye Xuan who was approaching him.
"Tsk tsk tsk, you are really a lost dog, but don't worry, I will tell His Holiness the Pope the location of Haotian Sect~" Only half a body away from Tang Hao, Ye Xuan's words made Tang Hao's face suddenly change.
"Don't blackmail me, the location of Haotian Sect is not something you can know."
"Really? Then take a look at this~"
Looking at Tang Hao, whose face has returned to calm, a projection appeared. It was a small village that looked ordinary, but anyone who was interested would find that the villagers inside looked a little sturdy.
"How do you know..."
Without answering Tang Hao's shock and anger, Ye Xuan made him faint directly, and then stretched out his relaxed body after being released, opening the blockade of this space. The previous picture was naturally obtained through Tang Yuehua not long ago. Now after being verified by Tang Hao, Ye Xuan is naturally more confident.
Although the high-level officials of the Spirit Hall knew the location of the Haotian Sect, Ye Xuan knew that Bibi Dong, that woman, was most likely unaware of the location of the Haotian Sect. This time, when Tang Hao was sent to the Pope's Palace, Ye Xuan naturally had to try his best to gain as many bargaining chips as possible in order to better achieve his goal.
"Bishop Sarath, my business here is over. When are you leaving?" Returning to the hall above, Ye Xuan casually tasted the lightly sweet tea. It was obvious that the other party had carefully investigated him, and even the little habits revealed in Tiandou City in the past few days were known, but Ye Xuan did not hate this feeling.
"Your Majesty Ye Xuan, we will leave tonight. I wonder if you will accompany us or find another time?" Sarath, who had already checked Tang Hao's condition, looked at the young man in front of him and was somewhat surprised at the other party's means.
After all, before Ye Xuan arrived, he had tried to make Tang Hao faint and then interrogate him, but the other party always insisted on not losing consciousness. Now Tang Hao has fainted, it seems that Ye Xuan has obtained the information he wanted.
"Let's go with you. No need to prepare servants for me." Ye Xuan gave an extra reminder. He didn't want to have several more maids. He would only let the maids he casually accepted take positions in the power and would not take them away. Naturally, he didn't need too many.
"I understand. We have prepared a room here. Your Majesty can take a rest."
Following a cardinal, Ye Xuan lay on the soft bed. Compared with the luxurious room prepared by Cross, the room in the temple seemed a little holy. This made Ye Xuan curious whether those who did it here would feel guilty.
Time soon came to the evening. Ye Xuan lifted the curtain of the carriage window. Although he did not complete the goal of going to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Academy, Ye Xuan did not feel any regret. After all, he would come here again in a few months.
He just didn't know what the scene would be like then.
The moon has gradually risen, and the tamed soul beasts are pulling the carriage through the woods. Compared with the main hall of the Spirit Hall in Soto City, the means of the temple are obviously more concealed. Ye Xuan sensed a thin film covering the convoy and lowered the curtains.
A gold coin was flipped between his fingers, and Ye Xuan squinted his eyes and dozed off. Even though the carriage was moving at a high speed, the special carriage remained calm.
A ray of dawn emerged from the distant horizon, and with it, a tall mountain appeared. Standing on the top of the carriage, Ye Xuan squinted his eyes slightly and looked at the city with tall walls from a distance. Compared with Tiandou Imperial City, Spirit City was obviously much smaller, but the more concentrated energy before approaching undoubtedly explained why this city chose to build here.
"It seems that there is also a special treasure here, but I don't know whether it is natural or acquired." Looking at a small building on the top of the mountain, Ye Xuan thought secretly in his heart. The building located on the top of the mountain is the famous Douluo Hall. In addition to certifying the title of Titled Douluo, it has another function.
According to legend, only the dead Titled Douluo are qualified to "live in" this special building. At the bottom of the hill, another tall building echoes the Pope's Palace on the top of the hill. It is obviously the Pope's Palace, where the supreme ruler of the Spirit Hall, the Pope, is located.
"Your Majesty Ye Xuan, we are about to enter the city. Please move to the carriage." A cardinal appeared beside Ye Xuan, bowed slightly and spoke without making things difficult for him. After a flash, Ye Xuan sat back in his carriage.
The convoy of Saras and his party had obviously already made a greeting, and quickly passed through one of the gates of the Spirit City. The soldiers guarding the city did not even waste time to stop the convoy for inspection.
Feeling the breath of the soul masters around him, Ye Xuan spread his mental power. Unlike the previous visit to the Tiandou Royal Academy, this time he used the six spiritual soul rings of the spirit eyes at the same time, easily covering up his operation. Light spots like stars appeared in Ye Xuan's mind. Those soldiers guarding the city all had soul power. Unlike the army composed of soul masters and ordinary people in Tiandou City, the army here, even ordinary soldiers, were soul masters with soul rings.
As the convoy continued to go deeper, more and more deep light spots appeared around. Even before reaching the foot of the mountain where the Pope's Palace was located, light spots representing the cultivation of soul saints had already appeared. You know, this is far beyond the combat power of ordinary cardinals. The galloping carriage stopped soon.
Ye Xuan had sensed the light spots on the mountain peak. There were dozens of light spots representing soul douluo, and the dozen or so light groups shining on the mountain undoubtedly showed that the number of titled douluo in the Spirit Hall actually exceeded the number of hands. The rumor from the outside world that there were only a dozen titled douluo in the entire continent was obviously self-defeating.
"Your Majesty Ye Xuan, do you need to bathe and change clothes first? You can meet His Majesty the Pope at any time." Bishop Sarath stood beside Ye Xuan. He knew that when Ye Xuan came down from the mountain again, he would definitely have his own title, and his chance to get Tang Hao's soul bone was only now.
"You seem to have something to say." Ye Xuan looked back from the stairs leading up to the top. He looked at Sarath with interest. The other party's performance in the past few days was not like a soul douluo who had been in a high position for a long time. It was obvious that he had something to ask of him. "Take me to rest. I'm going to meet His Majesty the Pope in the afternoon."
"Thank you, Your Majesty Ye Xuan. This way." The cardinal who followed him all the way escorted Tang Hao up first, and Sarath took Ye Xuan to his residence in Spirit City. As long as the soul master fully joined the Spirit Hall, he could get his own residence in Spirit City, and the location of the residence was linked to the soul power level. Sarath's single-family courtyard was located in the core area of Spirit City.
"Your Majesty Ye Xuan must know that I have been stuck at the peak of Soul Douluo for a long time, and I am very yearning for your strength as a Titled Douluo." Sarath and Ye Xuan sat on either side of the small wooden table. Sarath pushed the sweet tea to Ye Xuan, and his tone was a little respectful.
"Oh, do you mean you want to experience the pressure of a Titled Douluo and feel the strength of a Titled Douluo in advance?" Ye Xuan took a sip of tea and drank it all up. He seemed not to understand what Sarath meant, and spoke with a little smile.
"Ahem, that's not the case. Your Majesty Ye Xuan, I wonder if you have any intention of selling the two soul bones belonging to Tang Hao." Looking at Ye Xuan's smiling eyes, Salas knew that he couldn't continue to beat around the bush. After a few dry coughs, he stated his purpose.
"So it's for those two soul bones~ Bishop Salas, you should also understand that if I give these two soul bones to His Majesty the Pope, I should get more rewards, right?" Pointing at the table, Ye Xuan leaned back in his chair, and a gold soul coin flew up and down. From Salas's performance, Ye Xuan understood that the previous investigation of himself was most likely not an order from the Pope's Palace, but a private act of the platinum bishop in front of him.
"Please forgive my offense, Your Majesty Ye Xuan. I heard that you commissioned Cross of the Fighting Soul Arena to find a soul beast with time attributes. I also privately ordered to find a plant soul beast with time attributes. I wonder if I can use it to exchange for a soul bone?" Gritting his teeth, Salas handed over a sachet-style soul guide, which was obviously a space soul guide that could collect living things.
He seemed to know that his request was a bit outrageous. He immediately added, "Of course, this soul beast is only part of the transaction. If Your Majesty Ye Xuan needs other soul beasts, you can tell me. As long as the age does not exceed 50,000 years, I can mobilize my men to search with all my strength. I believe that His Majesty the Pope should not make a big fuss for soul bones." "It sounds like you want to get something for nothing~ After all, who knows if you can find the soul beast I need?"
Taking the soul guide handed over by Salas, Ye Xuan looked at the plant inside and showed a hint of surprise, but he still suppressed his thoughts and pushed the soul guide back. "Of course not, Your Majesty, I can swear with my martial soul. If I don't do my best to fulfill Your Majesty's request, then my martial soul will be broken and my cultivation will not improve at all!" Looking at Ye Xuan's inquiring eyes, Salas directly used his martial soul to swear, and looked at Ye Xuan with a hint of determination and trepidation.
Ye Xuan looked at Salas with some surprise, not because the other party swore with his martial soul, but because he "saw" a ray of energy that he had never seen before. The familiar feeling made Ye Xuan think for a long time, and the whole room fell into silence.
"Since you have sworn with your martial spirit, I will reluctantly agree to your request. I hope you can find me a soul beast with only a single attribute. You can choose one of the three attributes: gold, light, and darkness."
Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Sarath breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Ye Xuan on the other side of the table with gratitude, and pushed a ring and a soul guide containing a soul beast to Ye Xuan, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Choose one yourself. There is no requirement for the age of the soul beast. It only needs to meet a single attribute." The left leg bone and the right arm bone were placed on the table. Ye Xuan took the plant soul beast into the Xuanyi Realm and directly implanted it into the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire. After glancing at the large amount of gold soul coins and materials in the ring, he ignored it and just emphasized his request again.
"I understand. If there is anything you need to do down there, Your Majesty can contact me at any time." After accepting the right leg bone, Salas' tone revealed an uncontrollable excitement. Such a high-quality soul bone gave him the opportunity to break through the Title Douluo in his life. Even if Ye Xuan did not control him, he had already regarded Ye Xuan as his superior. After all, the contemporary pope would not give him such an opportunity.
"Okay, since the deal is over, take me to rest." After thinking for a moment, he did not accept Salas's idea. After all, this place is under the eyes of the Angel Family. Ye Xuan is not sure whether the Angel God will find something strange. Before Tianyizhu digests the divine power, Ye Xuan is not going to use the first ability in Spirit City. After all, Tianyizhu has been silent for some time, and he needs to be a little cautious.
"Okay, Your Majesty." After accepting the soul bone, Salas led Ye Xuan to a somewhat gorgeous room.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Ye Xuan came to the Xuanyi Realm, carefully observing the plant soul beast in front of him, carefully sensing its situation. Ye Xuan was helpless. He didn't expect that the two soul beasts with time attributes he met in succession seemed unable to absorb them. They all had more important functions.
The plant in front of him was only as long as an adult's forearm. The silver-white leaves on the whole body flashed a little glow, and the obvious orchid stems had a little gem-like luster. The analysis of the Spirit Eye Spirit Hall had fed back the information of this plant to him. Although he didn't know its name, he already knew the other party's ability.
"You should have developed spiritual intelligence, right? Entering here, you also understand that you have recognized me as your master. Tell me, what is your name?"
"You are a bad guy, I won't talk to you!"
A crisp voice sounded, and the silver orchid grass on the ground shook its branches and leaves, curled up in anger, and Ye Xuan couldn't help but twitch his mouth. Reaching out and grabbing the branches of the orchid, Ye Xuan stroked the other's "body" like petting a cat. A large amount of vitality was injected from the palm of his hand. The originally curled branches and leaves quickly stretched out, and a comfortable moan came out.
"So comfortable~ You are not human!" The shaking leaves conveyed a doubtful tone. Ye Xuan exuded the breath of a million-year-old soul beast. The orchid in front of him seemed to be the same as the world consciousness at the beginning, looking at the squatting man in front of him with some confusion.
"Since you are not human, it doesn't matter if I tell you who I am. I am Ning Shi Mei Shi~"
The two grass leaves were bent like a pair of arms, and Ye Xuan didn't know where the other party learned this action from. He looked at Mei Shi in front of him helplessly, showing a helpless look. He wiped the tip of the other party's grass, just like touching his head. After Ye Xuan sent a group of information into the other party's mind, he left Xuanyi Realm regardless of the other party's suddenly higher voice.
Ningshi Meishi, an orchid plant soul beast with two attributes of time and life, can affect the speed of time passing within a surrounding area. This ability is equivalent to the accelerated growth effect of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire on plant soul beasts, but the objects of application are more extensive.
But after the analysis of Lingmou, Ye Xuan understood the disadvantages of this ability, that is, when used on targets other than itself, this ability consumes Meishi's own energy, that is, it is equivalent to a transit station of time attributes. It can quickly cultivate itself with the time attribute of the world, but if it wants to influence the outside world, its cultivation will decrease rapidly.
After understanding the effect of Meishi's ability, Ye Xuan planned to place it in the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire. This treasure land can accelerate the growth of its body cultivation, rather than the kind of "false" cultivation that can be quickly improved by relying on the time attribute. At the same time, the time rules of Xuanyi Realm will also be quickly supplemented. When Ye Xuan discovered that a plant that was only two hundred years old had the wisdom of a hundred thousand year old soul beast, he figured out the key.
The age of Meishi's body can only increase with the passage of time in the world, but the age of her cultivation can be quickly improved by the time attribute. It is estimated that she quickly improved to 100,000 years later, and found that she could not survive the catastrophe of the fierce beast, and she did not want to transform, so she began to disperse her cultivation to affect the surrounding environment. As a result, she was discovered by Saras. Unable to move, she was forced to pretend to be an ordinary soul beast and was caught by Saras.
In the original eyes of Binghuo Liangyin, the accelerated time effect was almost the same as Meishi, but since it was included in Xuanyi Realm, this disadvantage has been slowly dissipating. After all, this world belongs to Ye Xuan and has independent rules, and the joining of Meishi can speed up this process.
"I didn't expect to pick up a bargain. I don't know if I can get along with Xiaoqing Yeluan and the others." Ye Xuan thought after returning to the room. He didn't worry at all whether the other party would betray him after knowing his identity. After all, it was just a soul beast of two hundred years, and Ye Xuan easily accepted it in a snap of his fingers.
After enjoying the lunch prepared by Sarath, Ye Xuan got up and walked towards Spirit Mountain. Climbing up the stairs deep into the clouds, Ye Xuan admired the surrounding scenery and soon arrived in front of the tall Pope's Palace.
After showing the elder's order with only his name engraved on it, Ye Xuan entered the somewhat empty meeting hall. On the golden chair in front, a tall figure sat upright. On both sides of her, two figures with their heads slightly lowered faintly exuded a strong pressure.
"Greetings to His Holiness the Pope!" Ye Xuan bowed his head slightly and saluted Bibi Dong in front of him. After having the cultivation of a Titled Douluo, he could only bow his head when meeting the Pope.
"Your name is Ye Xuan, right? You did a good job, capturing Haotian Douluo who has been wanted by the Spirit Hall for many years. I just don't know how strong you are."
As Bibi Dong finished speaking, two figures beside her suddenly burst out with powerful pressure, pressing towards Ye Xuan. Facing the sudden attack of the woman in front of him, Ye Xuan was a little unprepared.
The cold breath and the warm breath intertwined and attacked. Obviously, these two were Ju Douluo and Ghost Douluo. The purple thunder pool spread out at once, easily resisting the pressure. Ye Xuan said with some doubts, "Your Holiness, I wonder what you mean by this?"
