Chapter 181: Sea God Island, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger Appears!
Clear Sky Sect.
Today, Tang Yuehua returned to the Sect with resources and intelligence.
"Yuehua, what is the situation outside now?" Tang Xiao asked.
Tang Yuehua shook her head, her expression grave, and replied, "It's difficult. The Heaven Dou Empire has decided to send troops to Tianshui City. A war between the Spirit Empire and the Heaven Dou Empire is probably imminent."
"Besides that, I also found out that Yu Yuanzhen, the Clan Chief of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, recently took some powerhouses to Spirit Hall, seemingly to exchange for something."
"Exchange for something?" Tang Xiao frowned.
He wondered: Does Spirit Hall have something that Yu Yuanzhen would go to such great lengths to obtain?
Could it be a method to improve the physique of a Soul Master?
Spirit Hall's internal Soul Master soul ring configurations far surpass the past. Some Soul Masters have thousand-year soul rings as their second ring, even ten-thousand-year soul rings as their fourth. How is this even possible?
If it were a thousand-year second ring, he could understand that.
Spirit Hall must have discovered resources that can nourish and enhance a Soul Master's physique, allowing their Physique to surpass the usual by two or three hundred years beyond the original limit.
This could enable their second soul ring to increase from the maximum of around 800 years to 1,000 years.
But a ten-thousand-year fourth soul ring—that's not scientifically feasible!
Powerful Soul Masters know that the biggest difference between a ten-thousand-year soul ring and a thousand-year soul ring is the resentment impact, a mental power attack from the Soul Beast after its death.
This mental attack can only be barely resisted by a Spirit King.
Only geniuses with exceptional mental power can have a ten-thousand-year fifth soul ring. Their first four rings are usually yellow, yellow, purple, purple, with the closer they are to the limit, the higher the chance of their fifth ring being ten thousand years.
This is because the previous four rings amplify all attributes, allowing their mental power to barely resist the resentment impact when they reach around rank 50.
This made Tang Xiao realize that Spirit Hall had probably not only found resources to improve physical attributes but also those to enhance mental power!
Only by boosting mental power in advance can a Soul Master possibly absorb a ten-thousand-year soul ring at the fourth stage.
He also considered: if the second and third rings of these Soul Masters are both thousand-year rings, the amplification from the first three rings would be comparable to the previous four rings.
But don't forget—their accumulation and improvement of a major stage between ranks 40 and 50 are lacking.
This ten-rank gap would also invisibly enhance the Soul Master's mental power.
In other words, Spirit Hall must have mental power-enhancing medicine to bridge this ten-rank gap!
"Alright, I will personally go to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect to sound them out, and see if we can ally with them."
Now that the Spirit Empire is powerful, many sects have merged into it. Among the Seven Great Sects, only his Clear Sky Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan remain independent.
Only through alliance can there be hope for the future!
Tang Yuehua also nodded. "Big Brother, that's what I think too."
"Also, do you have any news about Second Brother? Since he was captured by Spirit Hall, we still don't know what happened to him." A worried expression appeared on Tang Yuehua's face.
Tang Xiao looked at her with a complex expression. "Yuehua, you might need to be mentally prepared. You should know the cruelty of Spirit Hall. Since the Second Brother was captured, he's probably already..."
"No! Impossible!" Tang Yuehua retorted emotionally. "Isn't Spirit Hall afraid? Isn't it afraid that Grandfather will suddenly return?"
"Grandfather is an existence of the same power as Qian Daoliu. Isn't he afraid that when Grandfather returns and finds out his grandson is dead, he will retaliate against Spirit Hall?"
Tang Xiao sighed. "This… I hope what you say is true. You also know that Grandfather has been missing for decades. Ever since he went to Sea God Island last time, there has been no news of him."
"Legend says he went to various parts of the continent to find a suitable God Legacy for the High Priestess of Sea God Island, but God Legacy only exists in legends. Can it really exist?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Yuehua's eyes suddenly lit up. "That's right, Sea God Island! Since Grandfather had a connection with the High Priestess of Sea God Island back then, can we ask her to step forward?"
"It is said that she is also an Ultimate Douluo powerhouse, and her power is even greater than Qian Daoliu and Grandfather!"
Although Tang Xiao felt that the chances of that senior stepping forward to help were slim, he considered: what if?
"Alright, after I finish with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, I will set off for Sea God Island. I hope that the senior, for the sake of her relationship with Grandfather, can lend a hand."

Star Dou Great Forest.
Hu Bai had been deep inside for several days, mainly searching outward from the lake where Da Ming and Er Ming originally resided.
At the same time, he minimized his aura. He simulated his soul rings with mental power, turning them white, yellow, yellow, purple, purple, purple, reducing the pressure emanating from them to a minimum.
It wasn't that he hadn't considered simulating all rings as white, but the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger wasn't a fool. What Soul Master would have such a configuration?
Moreover, they had previously sacrificed four Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beasts, which must have attracted the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger's attention.
Perhaps his aura had already been perceived.
"Xiao Bai, there's movement!" Tianmeng Iceworm's voice was very serious. He sensed a whooshing sound not far away, along with footsteps crushing fallen leaves.
A cold wind blew past.
"Hmm, I sensed it too. After searching so long, I finally lured him out!"
Hu Bai's mental power instantly locked onto the direction he sensed. A giant pure black tiger, over eight meters long, slowly approached.
Its muscles bulged, its red eyes exuded a sinister aura, and a gloomy, mist-like black "King" character was on its forehead. It had black wings on its back, and its tail was long and erect, made of countless bone segments, with a huge barbed hook at the tip shining with a chilling glow. Its body was covered with dark green runes, emanating an evil and tyrannical aura.
"Is this the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger? What a terrifying evil aura!" The Ice Empress frowned. "It seems Tianmeng Iceworm was right, this evil Tiger looks very wicked."
Snow Empress also said, "The evil aura of this evil Tiger is already at the extreme level. I'm afraid even Xiao Bai's ultimate light will have difficulty restraining him!"
One must know that while light can restrain darkness, darkness can also devour light. These attributes are like water and fire—mutually restraining each other.
Whoever is stronger will restrain the other!
