166: Chapter 166 Su Ling advances, Qian Renxue fails again?

This time, facing Spirit Hall, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School won a complete victory!

The four Titled Douluo could not shake Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo at all!

The gap was simply too large. Even one against three, they could not defeat the level 97 Sword Douluo; instead, they were countered by Sword Douluo.

"Uncle Sword, Uncle Bone, finish this quickly!" Ning Fengzhi said hurriedly.

Now that the advantage was on their side, the sooner these four Titled Douluo were defeated, the fewer casualties the Sect would suffer.

But it was precisely this shout from Ning Fengzhi that drew the attention of the four Titled Douluo.

Especially Ghost Leopard Douluo, who immediately used a Spirit Ability and rushed toward Ning Fengzhi at extreme speed.

Only by eliminating Ning Fengzhi first and removing the Support from Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo would they have a chance to win. Furthermore, at this moment, the Spirit Masters around Ning Fengzhi were all participating in the battle, leaving only two Spirit Masters to protect him.

If not now, when would be the time to kill Ning Fengzhi? Moreover, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo were further away from Ning Fengzhi than he was, making it impossible to rescue him in time.

How could they have not paid attention to Ning Fengzhi's safety?

Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo had tried various plans in the various battle scenarios they had practiced beforehand.

Therefore, the moment Ghost Leopard Douluo moved, the Spirit Masters around Ning Fengzhi had already acted.

In an instant, two Spirit Saints unleashed a skill—a Martial Soul Fusion Skill—creating a metal defensive wall in front of Ning Fengzhi, blocking Ghost Leopard Douluo outside.

After all, it was a Martial Soul Fusion Skill from two Spirit Saints; the defensive skill was not weak, though not excessively high. Its defensive strength was higher than the eighth Spirit Ability of a defensive Spirit Douluo and lower than the ninth Spirit Ability of a defensive Titled Douluo.

However, with this Spirit Ability, it would still take Ghost Leopard Douluo some time to break through.

Yet, within this time, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo attacked.

Sword Douluo swung a sword at Devil Bear Douluo, while Bone Douluo continued to attack Spirit Kite Douluo.

Ghost Leopard Douluo might have had some obsession with killing Ning Fengzhi; even if this mission failed, killing Ning Fengzhi would mean it was not a total loss.

With a full-force strike, the metal wall in front of Ghost Leopard Douluo was broken, having blocked Ghost Leopard Douluo for less than ten seconds.

But these ten seconds of time cost them dearly.

Two screams sounded from behind; the Seven Kill Sword had already pierced through Devil Bear Douluo's body, and over at Bone Douluo's side, Spirit Kite Douluo had also been pierced through the body by Bone Douluo's giant bone spikes.

Yet, the Ning Fengzhi who had been in front of Ghost Leopard Douluo disappeared a second before the defense was broken.

"Where is he?" Ghost Leopard Douluo checked front, back, left, right, and even the air, but could not find Ning Fengzhi's figure.

The two Spirit Masters who had unleashed the defensive Martial Soul Fusion Skill had been blasted away by Ghost Leopard Douluo, but Ning Fengzhi was nowhere to be found.

At this moment, a sound came over.

It turned out that below where Ning Fengzhi had been standing, a huge metal door was closing; Ning Fengzhi had hidden inside while the two Spirit Masters were defending.

Now the metal door was closed, and Ning Fengzhi had hidden underground.

He had hidden underground, but more importantly, the Support on Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo had not disappeared.

This was a method of defending against enemies that Ning Fengzhi had researched—a way to protect himself during decisive battles with enemy experts.

Of course, this method did not originate from Ning Fengzhi.

Ning Fengzhi had made all the other arrangements, but this specific point was something Su Ling had told him when he introduced it.

Because the skills of those two defensive Spirit Masters could block vision after being used, and it would take some time for an ordinary Titled Douluo to break through.

Therefore, after using this skill, Ning Fengzhi could open the passage, go down, and increase the defense. He could observe the battle from inside and escape through the passage if there was danger—killing two birds with one stone.

"Damn it!" Ghost Leopard Douluo was anxious; the Devil Bear Douluo and Spirit Kite Douluo behind were already dead.

Ghost Leopard Douluo arrived above where Ning Fengzhi had disappeared, wanting to open the passage leading underground.

"Ghost Leopard Douluo, you probably do not think we exist."

"Careful!" Snake Lance Douluo also hurriedly warned.

The Seven Kill Sword broke through the air, and Ghost Leopard Douluo could only defend passively; this strike directly blasted Ghost Leopard Douluo away.

"Old Man Bone, leave this to me, you go quickly to help the other Disciples of the Sect." Sword Douluo said.

"Good!"

Because in another direction, the Disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School were in a bitter fight and were already at a disadvantage.

Although the high-level battle had been won, the advantage of Spirit Hall's greater number of Spirit Masters and higher Soul Power came into play on other battlefields.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had Spirit Masters fighting alongside elite soldiers with Hidden Weapons, and initially, they had used the Hidden Weapons to kill or injure many of Spirit Hall's Spirit Masters.

But once Spirit Hall's Spirit Masters slowly reacted, the effect of the Hidden Weapons began to diminish, so in terms of the combat power of ordinary Spirit Masters, the foundation of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School still had a huge gap compared to Spirit Hall.

This was also the reason Sword Douluo dared to let Bone Douluo go to Support.

At this time, Snake Lance Douluo and the blasted-away Ghost Leopard Douluo gathered together.

In front of them was Sword Douluo, holding the Seven Kill Sword.

"She Long, let us retreat. The intelligence on the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was completely wrong; we have no chance of winning anymore." Ghost Leopard Douluo said.

"I have the same intention, but it is difficult to leave right now." Snake Lance Douluo said with a helpless look.

"Fight it out!" After Ghost Leopard Douluo finished speaking, his spirit rings were released, and he unleashed his Martial Soul Avatar.

Seeing this, Snake Lance Douluo also released his Martial Soul Avatar, the Snake Lance transforming into a two-headed snake, and both of them faced Sword Douluo together.

However, after the two released their Martial Souls, they did not rush to attack. Ghost Leopard Douluo spoke first: "Sword Douluo, Ning Fengzhi, although we two do not have the advantage now, you cannot easily deal with the Spirit Masters of our other teams either. If we keep fighting like this, we might be defeated, but your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will also suffer heavy losses. Why not just call it quits?"

"Call it quits?" A trace of coldness appeared on Sword Douluo's face.

When they were winning, they wanted to wipe out the whole Sect, and when they could not win, they wanted to call it quits?

Is there such a good thing in the world?

"Absolutely impossible!" Sword Douluo said. In his mind, he also received a voice transmission from Ning Fengzhi.

Ghost Leopard Douluo continued: "You better think carefully. If we die, will Spirit Hall let you off?"

Sword Douluo said: "Ghost Leopard Douluo, are you trying to trick a three-year-old?"

"If we let you go, will Spirit Hall let us off?"

"Since that is the case, then let us fight!" Ghost Leopard Douluo said.

"She Long, attack together."

Snake Lance Douluo nodded. The next moment, he unleashed a Spirit Ability, and the two snake heads began to condense Soul Power, simultaneously firing two energy beams at Sword Douluo.

Sword Douluo had already prepared for this, and the Seven Kill Sword came out.

At the same time, Ghost Leopard Douluo also moved, releasing a Spirit Ability a step later than Snake Lance Douluo, but his skill was unrelated to this battle.

Fifth Spirit Ability: Ghostly Shadow God Movement!

The speed was astonishing; Ghost Leopard Douluo had actually run away.

Sword Douluo had originally thought Ghost Leopard Douluo and Snake Lance Douluo would join forces against him, but what happened? One of them just ran away.

After blocking Snake Lance Douluo's attack, the Snake Lance Douluo in front of Sword Douluo also deactivated the Martial Soul Avatar and began to flee.

Sword Douluo wanted to pursue, but as soon as movement began, Sword Douluo realized Ning Fengzhi was still behind.

If this was the opponent's strategy to lure Sword Douluo away and attack Ning Fengzhi, then even if the place where Ning Fengzhi was could defend for a while, there was still a risk.

In the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, anyone could have an accident, but Ning Fengzhi could not.

So Sword Douluo chose to stay, only slashing a Sword Qi toward the fleeing Snake Lance Douluo.

"Fengzhi, it looks like Spirit Hall is going to flee." Sword Douluo said.

At this moment, Ning Fengzhi also walked out and said: "Just Guard the Sect, no need to chase them out."

Subsequently, Spirit Hall began to retreat. The counterattack of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was all within the Sect; as long as they were outside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, they did not pursue further.

Relatively speaking, Ning Fengzhi's strategy was somewhat conservative.

Conservative is less likely to lead to major mistakes, while being aggressive can achieve more results, but it also requires bearing greater risks.

However, none of this mattered anymore. What was important was that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had been preserved, and two of Spirit Hall's Titled Douluo had been killed.

"From today on, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School can be renamed the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School." Ning Fengzhi said with a gratified look; Ning Fengzhi had waited too long for this day.

That night, both the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect were quite busy. The biggest difference between the two Sects was that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect pursued the Spirit Hall Spirit Masters, and at least one-third of the attacking Spirit Hall Spirit Masters had fallen.

However, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect also lost dozens of Disciples, with over a hundred lightly or seriously injured.

And most of the fighting was outside the Sect.

At the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, most of the fighting was inside the Sect, and various traps and mechanisms had been set up. Although they were later suppressed by a large number of Spirit Hall Spirit Masters, they still killed a large number of Spirit Hall Spirit Masters.

Post-war statistics showed that over two hundred Spirit Masters of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had died, and over five hundred were lightly or seriously injured.

As for the elite soldiers holding Hidden Weapons, the number of deaths exceeded five hundred, and the wounded exceeded one thousand.

Of course, the Spirit Masters of Spirit Hall were even more miserable.

Two Titled Douluo died, the number of Spirit Master deaths exceeded one thousand, and not a single prisoner was left; all Spirit Hall Spirit Masters were killed within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

This was the current gap between Liu Erlong, Sword Douluo, and the others.

Of course, the Spirit Hall Spirit Masters and experts faced by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School were at least twice as many as those faced by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, so the battle was also more tragic.

Seven days later!

Spirit City, inside the Supreme Pontiff Palace.

"What? Four Titled Douluo died." Bibi Dong's body heaved, and Bibi Dong's breathing was a bit rapid.

"Liu Erlong is level 98, Sword Douluo is level 97, and there is Bone Douluo at level 96, and that Ning Fengzhi has also broken through to Spirit Douluo."

"What are my Spirit Hall's intelligence agencies doing for a living?"

Looking at Ghost Leopard Douluo and Snake Lance Douluo, both were very disheveled and covered in wounds.

Thinking for a moment, Bibi Dong regained composure and said lightly: "You all go down to heal your wounds. This is not your problem; it is that the intelligence was wrong, and they should have known about our actions."

Ghost Leopard Douluo and Snake Lance Douluo bowed to Bibi Dong and then retreated.

"Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Nine Treasure Glazed Tile and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, very good. Just let you exist for a while longer; one day I will wipe you all out." Bibi Dong said coldly.

"Someone, take the intelligence..."

At the same time, Qian Renxue in Heaven Dou City also knew about the Soul-Extinguishing Operation.

In the secret room, Qian Renxue was also holding a detailed report.

"Teacher, you hid this from me so well. I did not expect your Soul Power to have reached level 88, and Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo have both broken through."

"And Liu Erlong, she actually reached level 98 in such a short time, full Spirit Bones, 100,000-year spirit ring."

"Su Ling, is all of this because of you?"

Su Ling's figure appeared in Qian Renxue's mind; she still missed him after not seeing him for so long.

And the changes in these two great Sects were very likely changed by Su Ling.

She had also eaten the immortal herbs given by Su Ling, which were indeed a great help, making her Cultivation much faster.

And the women around Su Ling were also getting stronger one after another.

"Su Ling, what exactly is your identity? Why do you have such good things that even I envy?" Qian Renxue whispered.

"Bibi Dong, I did not expect you to have a day of failure."

"You failed, then my position here becomes even more important."

"Xue Beng, fortunately Su Ling reminded me, I must deal with you as soon as possible."

...

On the Douluo Continent, Spirit Hall's Soul-Extinguishing Operation had failed, but undercurrents were still surging, and fighting was still constant everywhere on the continent.

And Su Ling was still absorbing spirit rings, and the goddesses around him were also Cultivating step by step.

In the blink of an eye, another half month passed.

Here at Su Ling's, the million-year spirit ring was integrated, and his Soul Power began to surge.

Level 91... Level 92!

He quickly crossed level 95, and shortly after, it soared to level 96.

And after his Soul Power reached level 96, it continued to improve until it reached the Peak of level 96.

It stopped here; the million-year spirit ring had raised him from level 90 to the Peak of level 96, not reaching level 97.

However, since Su Ling had already Cultivated to this point, he might as well raise it to level 97 at once.

So Su Ling said: "System, give me all the effects of the goddesses' Cultivation for so long."

In an instant, energy gathered on the scene, and Su Ling continued to Cultivate.

Another day passed.

Su Ling walked out of the tent; at this time, his Soul Power had reached level 97.

The accumulation of the long-term Cultivation effects of the goddesses had already caused his Soul Power to Breakthrough, successfully reaching level 97.

Su Ling glanced at the System page and was quite satisfied.

Twenty-five years old, level 97, and his Mental Energy had also reached the state of level 99; this was just one million-year spirit ring.

The previous million-year Spirit Bone had been absorbed too much by the external Spirit Bone, so it seemed he had not improved much, but now the effect of the million-year Spirit Bone came out all at once.

The Cultivation effect of the goddesses was simply timely help.

Now Su Ling still had a million-year torso bone; after absorbing this, Su Ling's Soul Power might improve further.

However, absorbing this million-year Spirit Bone would also take a lot of time, so Su Ling did not plan to absorb it immediately; he planned to wait until the next round of assessment when he had plenty of time.

And looking at Shui Binger's tent, she was still absorbing a spirit ring.

Their Cultivation methods were different; Su Ling's Spirit and Soul Power attributes allowed him to absorb spirit rings very quickly, and this was his second time absorbing a million-year spirit ring, so the speed was even faster.

"Next is to help the goddesses pass the first assessment." Su Ling said lightly.

At the same time, in a secret residence in Heaven Dou City.

Qian Renxue, who had changed her attire, slapped the table with a bang and said angrily: "What! They all ran away?"

"Young Lord, Prince Xue Xing assisted with all his might, and there was also a Tang Sect established by Tang San helping Xue Beng, plus Poison Douluo, and we only had one Porcupinefish Douluo, so we could not stop them at all, letting them leave Heaven Dou City and escape."

"Abominable, did I not say to send two Titled Douluo over there? Why did only one Porcupinefish Douluo come?" Qian Renxue said.

"This..."

"Fine, I probably know the reason!" Qian Renxue said with a helpless look.

After the people left, Qian Renxue whispered: "Su Ling, I failed your reminder. Although I let them escape, I can also completely control Heaven Dou City and control the Heaven Dou Empire as soon as possible. Since that is the case, then Xue Ye should also die."

"Someone, tonight, I want to know the news of Xue Ye's death." Qian Renxue decided.
