Hearing this, is there gossip? Tang Lan looked at Chen Xin.
Chen Xin's lips curled up, as if remembering something amusing.
Wang Dali's face turned dark, and he didn't say a word.
— That was a stain on his life, and he didn't even bother to wash it away.
"Xiao Lan,"
Chen Xin chuckled—
"Have you ever heard that there was a Soul Master who had just advanced to Title Douluo, confident in his strength, and went to the Star Dou Great Forest to challenge the Titan Ape?"
"As a result, he was frightened away from the Star Dou Great Forest by a roar from the Sky Azure Bull Python."
"And since then, he's hidden in the mountains, never to be seen again?"
Tang Lan ↓
_
He looked at Chen Xin, who was trying to stifle a laugh, then at Wang Dali, whose face was ashen.
Understood.
That Title Douluo who didn't know the immensity of the heavens and earth was obviously the one in front of him.
So many years had passed.
Yet, he was still lingering at level 91. Was this due to internal injuries?
That didn't seem right.
Looking at Wang Dali's aura, it was robust and powerful, not like someone who was injured.
Then...
"A mental demon?" Tang Lan frowned and said, "Were you frightened by the Sky Azure Bull Python?"
Such a direct statement caused Wang Dali to lose face.
"That Sky Azure Bull Python... it was a problem!"
Wang Dali loudly retorted—
"That roar carried a soul attack, damaging my soul and causing a significant drop in my mental strength, which is why I've been stuck at this bottleneck ever since."
"I heard your Nine Yang Divine Skill could help with soul growth, which is why I came."
"Is that so?"
Tang Lan activated the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud and opened his Purple Demon Eye.
He observed Wang Dali's soul.
Indeed, it seemed somewhat illusory.
Blue threads, like shackles, were wrapped around his soul.
This was the key to his inability to break through for many years.
I didn't expect that Da Ming would have this trick up his sleeve, huh?
Tang Lan condensed a Soul Spike and sliced towards the blue shackles.
Clang! The Soul Spike was deflected.
And the stimulating blue shackles constricted, digging into his soul.
"Hiss—"
Wang Dali cried out in pain, his body shaking unnaturally.
The pain in his soul,
even a Title Douluo couldn't withstand it.
"Quite troublesome," Tang Lan muttered, "Don't move around, I'll try this move."
A blue-purple light gathered in his Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.
The power of the Vast Sea and the power of the soul were continuously compressed.
It radiated an aura that even Chen Xin found unsettling!
A few seconds later.
Compressed to the critical point, two blue-purple beams shot from his eyes!
"Heaven and Earth Shattering Soul!"
The strongest single-target damage of the Purple Demon Eye!
It was a dual attack, both physical and spiritual.
The blue shackles that Soul Slicer was helpless against were sliced through with the force of a landslide.
As Tang San's gaze swept across.
One by one, the restraints were opened, and Wang Dali's aura gradually grew stronger.
Until all the shackles were severed.
Crack——
A crisp sound.
Then, the momentum on Wang Dali's body surged, and his level rose like a bamboo shoot, reaching level 92!
The powerful pressure of a Title Douluo swept across the entire area.
Tang San remained unmoving.
He could even mobilize his mental power to protect Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu.
But as for the others...
It was like they had a nightmare, waking up from a drunken stupor!
He locked onto Wang Dali, whose aura was unparalleled.
Unfamiliar Title Douluo?
"It's a Title Douluo!"
"Enemy attack!"
"Form up!"
Everyone scrambled to action.
A beat later, they realized something.
Chen Xin and Tang San were both here. What did they have to worry about?
The former was, needless to say, a Level 96 Peak Douluo.
The latter.
That was a cheater who even defeated Clear Sky Douluo!
"Roar—"
Wang Dali let out a joyful roar to the sky, his imposing aura sweeping the surroundings without restraint.
So many years!
This damn bottleneck finally broke through!!!
Chen Xin ignored Wang Dali's outburst and walked to Tang Lan's side.
He stared at him strangely.
"Sword Uncle, if you have any questions, just ask. Don't look at me like that," Tang Lan took a half step back. "I'm male, and I like girls."
Chen Xin was amused.
Among the younger generation,
Besides Ning Rongrong, only this Tang Lan dared to joke with him like this.
"That technique you just used, was that a Soul Bone skill?"
"Yep." Tang Lan readily admitted. "It's the Heaven Dou Empire's national treasure, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, which merged with one of my domain abilities to become an external Soul Bone."
This answer surprised Chen Xin.
The Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud? He had seen that thing before; Emperor Xueye had asked him to try and decipher it.
He couldn't make heads or tails of it.
Unexpectedly... He could only sigh, "You certainly have a deep well of fortune."
Tang Lan chuckled.
These were all the protagonist's opportunities he had intercepted; how could he not be fortunate?
Wang Dali suddenly stopped his wailing and looked towards the north.
"Swish—"
A sound of air being torn apart came.
Dugu Bo, in a green robe, flew over with his hands behind his back.
Seeing Chen Xin and Tang San, his expression softened slightly.
But he still reprimanded Wang Dali—
"Don't you know that releasing the aura of a Titled Douluo is forbidden within the Imperial City?"
Wang Dali had just broken through to Level 92 and was feeling smug.
Now being berated by a "Title Douluo floor tile."
How could he endure this?
Immediately, his eyes widened, ready to strike.
Tang Lan stepped in front of him, blocking him.
"Dali, Old Monster Dugu is an old friend of mine. Don't ruin the harmony."
"Old Monster Dugu, this is Wang Dali, a newly appointed elder of the Tang Sect. He just broke through a bottleneck, so he's letting off some steam."
Even though Tang Lan was only a Soul Emperor at the sixth rank.
Both Wang Dali and Dugu Bo had a premonition—if they didn't smooth things over, they might get beaten!
Wang Dali didn't know Tang Lan's strength, so he just assumed it was a feeling.
But Tang Lan had helped him break through.
And there was a high probability that it would allow him to advance to a level 95 Peak Douluo.
This favor had to be given.
As for Dugu Bo… His expression was somewhat stunned.
A Tang Sect elder? A Title Douluo?
The Tang Sect's growth during this period had made him consider joining, to support Tang Lan.
And also to bind his Jade Phosphorous Clan tightly to the Tang Sect.
But now… The first Title Elder and the second Title Elder were different matters entirely.
Tang Lan didn't know what Dugu Bo was thinking.
But seeing his uncertain expression, Tang San probably guessed something.
He tentatively said, "Old Monster Poison, why don't you join my Tang Sect and become an elder?"
"I plan to create a Poison Hall, specializing in the study of poisons. That Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well is just sitting there anyway."
"This Poison Hall can be handed over to the Jade Phosphorous Clan, and you can choose the hall master."
Chen Xin was also quite perceptive.
He followed up, chiming in—
"Dali, you're just an elder with nothing to do right now, why not start a hall of your own?"
Wang Dali simply shook his head.
"You know I'm alone, I don't want to bother with that sort of thing."
Chen Xin knew this very well.
This was Dugu Bo's way of saying that Tang Lan treated him favorably.
Tang Lan, behind Dugu Bo's back, gave Chen Xin a thumbs up.
Sword Uncle, great assist!
But Dugu Bo was still hesitating.
Being naturally arrogant, he had always been a loner.
Even after being saved by Prince Xuexing, he was only a spare offering.
Suddenly becoming an elder of the sect…
Seeing this, Tang Lan added fuel to the fire.
"The Snowy Swan Kiss from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well will belong to the Poison Hall from now on."
"And a plot of land will be designated specifically for the Poison Hall to cultivate poisonous plants."
"Old Monster Du, you can continue living as you did before."
"Just come back and guide the Poison Hall when you have time."
The offer was already this generous.
How could Dugu Bo refuse?
It wasn't that he wasn't proud, it was simply that the rewards were too good!
"Sigh——"
"Since you've put it that way..."
"This old man will get on your pirate ship."
"Be an elder then."
Tang Lan laughed.
Could he still not handle this old tsundere?
[Host has recruited Dugu Bo as an elder of the Tang Sect, causing Tang San to lose a close friend. Plundering a moderate amount of Tang San's luck!]
