Chapter 172 This hatred is irreconcilable! A week later. In the main hall of Xingluo Palace, more than a dozen blond middle-aged and old men gathered together. The atmosphere in the hall was very dull. A burly blond old man, the only one sitting in the hall, asked with a gloomy face to Dai Feng, the elder of the royal group of elders in front of him: "What are the specific losses?" “Old Patriarch, this disappearance is all related to the royal family. According to current statistics, the royal family lost one Soul Douluo and twenty-three Soul Saints, and the relatives lost three Soul Douluo, two Soul Saints, and thirteen Soul Emperors. " Dai Feng reported the report in a deep voice, paused, and added: "Princess Tianyue and her consort are also on the missing list." In fact, as early as nine days ago, when Chu Chengzhou was still committing crimes in Xingluo territory, his 'good deeds' were almost exposed. The reason why the secret was exposed was unexpected, but also reasonable. A royal elder took his wife and grandson to the legion station to visit his son and daughter-in-law, who were generals in the legion, and reunited with the family to celebrate his grandson's birthday. But the man had been killed by Chu Chengzhou, so naturally the royal elder could not be found.
After asking around, I learned that the couple, as well as another White Tiger Soul Saint in the army, had all returned to Xingluo City after receiving the emperor's secret order. When things got here, the secret was not revealed immediately. But when the royal elder returned to Xingluo City, he still couldn't find anyone. When he finally asked the emperor, it turned out that there was no such thing at all, and the secret was immediately exposed. The royal family's expert disappeared for no reason, which naturally attracted the attention of the royal family. If nothing was said, they would be investigated directly. Just kidding, who doesn’t know what missing means? This does not mean that only finding a body means a murder has occurred. If you don't check, you won't know. If you check, you will be shocked. Things are far from as simple as they imagined. As time goes by, more and more such missing cases are detected. As of today, all the missing persons have been identified, and the losses have been so great that they have caused heavy losses to the royal family. "Snapped--" The strange sound was heard, and everyone in the hall turned to look, only to see the gloomy old patriarch of the royal family, the former emperor of the empire, and the only remaining titled Douluo in the royal family, White Tiger Douluo Dai Tao, who crushed his lower body in anger. Seat armrests. "who is it?!" Dai Tao roared with a ferocious expression, the anger in his eyes seemed to burn everything. You must know that although there are many members of the royal family, there are still only a few masters. The huge White Tiger family has less than a hundred seven-ring soul saints. At present, more than twenty people have disappeared at one time, which is a quarter of the number. And the most important thing is that among the more than 20 lost soul saints, although their soul power level is only seven levels, due to the martial soul fusion skill: Netherworld White Tiger, more than half of the soul saints' combat power is actually It is comparable to the Eight Rings Soul Douluo, not to mention that one of them is the eldest princess of the empire, his biological daughter Dai Tianyue. "Old Patriarch, the murderer has not yet been identified, but he must be proficient in mental control, and even if his mental power level is not as good as a Titled Douluo, it is at least no worse than a high-level Soul Douluo." Dai Sheng, the sixth elder of the royal family, said gloomily. The sixth elder, Dai Sheng, was the elder of the Xingluo royal family who first discovered the disappearance. What Chu Chengzhou, who was far away in Tiandou City, didn't know was that in the Star Dou Forest, he once peeped at the secret method he controlled and thought about the White Tiger Spirit Douluo who killed and silenced him. His parents and daughter-in-law had already died in his body. In his hand, it can be regarded as revenge for the past. "Many members of my royal family have been killed. Such blood feud must be avenged. Even if he is Qian Daoliu's son, he must die!
Yutian, if the royal family cannot find the murderer, then all suspects will be killed! "
Dai Tao stood up fiercely and shouted to the big boy Dai Yutian standing beside him. Killing all the suspects does not mean that Dai Tao has completely lost his mind. The murderer handled this disappearance case very cleanly from beginning to end. The royal family was unable to find any clues, and the real culprit will probably not be found. But the real culprit can’t be found, so the royal family just lets it go? impossible!
If this matter is left alone, then the real culprits behind the scenes will take advantage of it and intensify their efforts, and other forces that are not dealing with the empire may also get involved. Anyway, your Star Luo Empire will deal with it lightly if you can’t find the real culprit. Why don’t I add insult to injury? It can be said that once such a hole is opened, the consequences will be disastrous. "Yes, Father!" Dai Yutian lowered his head and responded. "Old Patriarch, Your Majesty, I have a serious suspicion." At this time, Great Elder Dai Feng spoke. "Who?" Dai Tao asked immediately. "Chu Chengzhou!" Dai Feng said without hesitation. "Who is this?" After thinking about it for a while, he realized that the name was very unfamiliar. Dai Tao asked in surprise. Since his abdication, Dai Tao has been meditating in the Xingluo Palace and rarely participated in imperial affairs. Since Chu Chengzhou was only a junior, Dai Tao had naturally never heard of Chu Chengzhou's name. "Old Patriarch, this person was born in the Tiandou Empire and the same as the Qibao Glazed Sect." With a fierce light in his eyes, Dai Feng talked about the relevant information about Chu Chengzhou, and then added: "Although this boy is not old, his soul power level is only a five-ring soul king (the Star Luo Empire information is out of date, but he is actually a six-ring soul king)" , but the strength is very strong. The empire twice sent out masters to intercept and kill them. First, the two Soul Douluo "Tiger" and "Jackal" led six soul saints to intercept and kill them. However, Chu Chengzhou killed the six soul saints with archery on the spot. Later, the empire secretly invited six Contras, including the 'Vulture', to intercept and kill him. The specific process is unknown, but these six Contras have all died. He has strength and motivation, and this guy has shown good mental skills in the Soul Master Competition. The murderer is most likely him! " Although Dai Feng cannot guarantee that Chu Chengzhou did this, he is still 70% sure. Of course, even if the murderer was not Chu Chengzhou, it didn't matter if the royal family killed the wrong person. In his opinion, Chu Chengzhou deserved to die anyway. Maybe Douluo Continent doesn't have the saying "Thirty years to the east of Hedong, thirty years to the west of Hexi", but there is still a principle of "Don't bully young people into poverty". It's not scary if the enemy is a master who has exhausted his potential, as long as his strength does not exceed the royal family's response range. Anyway, there are many enemies of the empire, one more is not too much, and one less is not too many. But it's different for a genius with great potential. Who can guarantee how far he will cultivate in the future?
If Chu Chengzhou was as powerful as Tang Chen, the "invincible on land" in the past, and his wings were completely stiff, it would be a disaster for the royal family. Thinking about it from his perspective, if there is a force that always sends people to assassinate him, then it will be fine if he does not have the strength in the future. If he has this strength, how can he retaliate harshly, or even eradicate the roots to avoid future troubles?
"Why is it not eradicated in advance if it is such a serious threat?"
Hearing this, Dai Tao was furious and questioned Dai Yutian unceremoniously. Although Dai Yutian is the Xingluo Emperor, what about the emperor? Not his son? It is only natural for me to teach my son! "Father, this son is very cunning. He usually hides in Tiandou City and has a close relationship with the Qibao Glazed Sect." Dai Yutian hurriedly explained. "What can Tiandou do? What about the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? He is just a junior. Is it possible that the empire can't deal with a small five-ring soul king?" It's okay not to say it. When Dai Yutian said this, Dai Tao became even more angry. On the surface, the only master that the Tiandou Empire could handle was Dugu Bo, and the Qibao Glazed Sect only had two titled Douluo, Chen Xin and Gu Rong. There are only three Titled Douluo, and Dugu Bo's strength is still at the bottom level among Titled Douluo. Even if the three of them have been protecting Chu Chengzhou, the empire still has the strength to kill him. Even the strength of the royal family alone was enough to forcibly kill Chu Chengzhou under the protection of these three titled Douluo. What's more, Titled Douluo doesn't have that much free time. No matter how good the relationship is, it's impossible to follow a junior all the time. It can be said that the royal family can avoid future troubles by casually sending two title-level masters there. "Old patriarch, my son died at the hands of Chu Chengzhou. This hatred is irreconcilable. I, Dai Sheng, beg for your life!" The Sixth Elder, Dai Sheng, stepped forward and requested that he take action personally to avoid future troubles. "Well, I'm sorry to trouble you, Sixth Elder. Once this junior leaves Tiandou City, we'll kill him!" Dai Tao nodded, but after thinking about it, he looked at the three middle-aged people in the hall and said: "Seventh Elder, Eighth Elder, and Ninth Elder, you three should also go with the Sixth Elder, so as not to interfere with Tiandou and Qibao at that time. Liuli Sect intervened." After all, Tiandou City is the imperial capital of the Tiandou Empire. Let’s not mention whether there are other titled Douluo in the Tiandou Empire besides Dugu Bo. There are just a lot of eight-ring soul douluo, which is a big trouble. If When caught in a siege, even the Netherworld White Tiger at the title level may not be able to escape. It is true that he wanted to kill Chu Chengzhou to avoid future troubles, but Dai Tao did not want his royal family elders to be buried with Chu Chengzhou. However, once he left Tiandou City, he would basically not be besieged. The four royal family elders were dispatched. This lineup was comparable to four powerful men who had just entered the Title Douluo level. Even if there was a Title Douluo protecting him secretly, Chu Chengzhou would be dead. And those who go there are strong ones, and they can escape unscathed after they succeed. It's equivalent to four Douluo assassinating a junior soul king level guy. I think Chu Chengzhou must have died an honorable death, right? Dai Tao: All enemies of the empire must die!
Chu Chengzhou didn't pay attention to the Xingluo Empire's reaction. Anyway, as long as he stays in Tiandou City, his safety is basically safe. As the imperial capital, perhaps the 'minor players' of the sixth, seventh, or even eighth rings would dare to cause trouble in Tiandou City, but masters at the Titled Douluo level would never come to Tiandou City to cause trouble. Because as long as there is any movement, the Tiandou Empire will definitely intervene, and once the person causing trouble has no time to escape, unless he is an extremely powerful man who can subdue the entire Tiandou, his life will definitely be spared. In the past, Salas from the Heaven Dou Spirit Temple dared to send ‘Cang Xiong’ and others to cause trouble at Lanba Academy, but he was actually already prepared to die in battle. Anyway, the Wuhundian family has a great cause, so losing an eighth-ringed Soul Douluo and two seven-ringed Soul Saints is nothing. As long as a potential threat can be eradicated, it is not a loss. However, the foundation of the Star Luo Empire is not as strong as that of the Wuhun Palace, and it is useless to send an Eight-ringed Soul Douluo. If you want to send one, you can only send a master of the Title Douluo level to successfully assassinate Chu Chengzhou. However, Titled Douluo are part of the country's heritage, and losing one of them will cause severe pain. In order to eliminate future troubles, it is okay to dispatch Titled Douluo, but it is absolutely impossible to destroy Titled Douluo.
Maybe he will encounter assassins at the Title Douluo level in the future, but it is impossible to encounter them in Tiandou City. Not to mention the Star Luo Empire, even the Spirit Hall, which had many titled Douluo under its command, would not be willing to spend such a huge sum of money. After practicing, Chu Chengzhou had nothing to do, so he prepared to tinker with the soul core that would only appear in later generations of the mainland. Chu Chengzhou is very clear about his most obvious shortcomings. The age of the summoned spirit is too high, and the level of his own soul power is too low. The total amount of sixth-level soul power in his body alone is not enough to support the two summoned spirits, Xiong Da and Da Hei, for a long time. The soul power level is too low, which he can't solve. After all, his training time is a flaw, and it is impossible to reach the sky in one step. But he has ways to increase his total soul power, such as condensing soul cores. The soul core is a great invention of the mainland soul master world in later generations, and it is also the standard equipment of the masters in the mainland soul master world in later generations. The soul core does not directly improve the soul master's cultivation, but after condensing the soul core, it can purify the soul power in the soul master's body, improve the quality of the soul power, and greatly increase the recovery speed of the soul power. Moreover, the soul core itself is also composed of soul power. Condensed, it can store a large amount of soul power. The improvement of the quality of soul power is also a disguised increase in the total amount of soul power. In addition, the soul core can act as the second blue bar, which can effectively solve the problem of insufficient soul power in the body. In addition, the improved quality of soul power can also be of great help to soul masters to break through bottlenecks. It can even be said that the emergence of the soul core system made a huge contribution to the prosperity of titled Douluo in the mainland in later generations. Although Chu Chengzhou has never seen Dou Er, Dou Three, Dou Four, and it is possible that after traveling through his previous life, there were Dou Wu, Dou Six, and even Dou Qi, he still knows a little bit about soul cores. Although the risk of condensing soul cores is not small, and there are many people who will play to death, but as long as the mental power is strong enough and the level of soul power control is high enough, the risks of condensing soul cores are actually controllable. A soul master can condense up to three soul cores, one from the lower dantian of the abdomen, the middle dantian of the chest, and the upper dantian between the eyebrows. There are two ways to condense multiple soul cores. One is the co-resonance condensation method, and the other is the yin and yang complementary condensation method. The difference between the two does not lie in the number of condensed soul cores, but in the different directions in which the soul cores run after they are condensed. Chu Chengzhou, who felt that he was a loser, was naturally preparing to condense the three complementary soul cores of yin and yang. Although when the soul core system reached its peak, most of the later generations of soul masters only began to try to condense the first soul core after they entered the seventh-ring soul saint level. However, with his top-quality True Spirit Flag martial soul, the golden grade The nine-breath meditation method, in terms of the quality and total amount of soul power, even if the level is only six rings, it is not necessarily much worse than the ordinary seven-ring soul saint. Gathering the first soul core should not be a problem. What's more, condensing soul cores has no fixed requirements for the soul master's own soul power level. Moreover, the soul power level is low, and the total amount of soul power required to condense soul cores is also low. It should not appear in the body when it is condensed halfway. The state of being exhausted. Of course, even if the soul power in the body is exhausted by then, the worst case scenario is simply throwing away the half-finished soul core. Anyway, as long as the level of control is sufficient, there will be no safety risks until the soul core is completely formed and integrated into the body. Afterwards, Jingxin threw all distracting thoughts out of his mind and adjusted his mental state. Chu Chengzhou stretched out his right hand, and wisps of blue soul power began to gather, forming a small pool of liquid soul power on the palm of his hand. Thanks to the absolute mastery of control, Chu Chengzhou's soul power control level is very high. The liquid soul power in his hand is firmly controlled in the palm of his hand, without any leakage. Gradually, as the blue soul power on the palm of the hand gradually increased, under the control of mental power, it rose into the air, floated above the palm of the hand, and began to rotate in a clockwise direction. Condensing the soul core focuses on control, compression and rotation. The control ability far exceeded that of a soul master of the same level, so Chu Chengzhou did not be too cautious and directly accelerated the speed of soul power injection and rotation.
As the soul power began to rotate faster, Chu Chengzhou discovered that the liquid soul power floating above the palm of his hand was slowly being compressed and gradually becoming thicker. Everything is moving in a good direction, compression, rotation, compression, rotation again
The rotation speed of the liquid soul power became faster and faster, and the degree of compression became higher and higher. Soon, a blue crystal the size of a needle tip suddenly appeared in the liquid soul power that was originally thick. Obviously, the soul power at this time is changing from liquid to solid. As time goes by, the blue soul power crystals the size of a needle tip get bigger and bigger. After a long time, all the liquid soul power disappeared, and was replaced by solid soul power that was as big as an egg and was like a sapphire. At the moment when the transformation was completed, a small clockwise rotating vortex suddenly formed with the solid soul power as the center. As soon as the vortex appeared, it immediately produced a strong suction force and began to absorb the vitality of the world from the outside world crazily. ‘No, the movement is too big, this is Tiandou City, we can’t condense soul cores here! ’ Realizing that the vitality in the surrounding world was pouring into the solid soul power crazily, Chu Chengzhou immediately realized that he should not try to condense soul cores at home. Otherwise, any mortal soul master in Tiandou City, as long as he is not dead, would be able to detect the movement on his side. Immediately, spiritual power surged out, and Chu Chengzhou isolated the solid soul power from the outside world. Under his control, the solid soul power that had been condensed gradually turned into a liquid again, and then dissipated into the air. After thinking about it, Chu Chengzhou used his spiritual power to sense something, got up and left his courtyard, knocking on the door of his 'next door neighbor' Dugu Bo. Tiandou City is not suitable for making big noises, but if you want to find a remote place to condense the soul cores without being disturbed, it is best to find an expert to guard them. Chu Chengzhou immediately thought of his father-in-law, but the Qibao Glazed Sect also had the eyes and ears of other forces. After making some noise, he would be tempted by various forces in the mainland, so he went to Dugu Bo to go to the Ice and Fire Liangyi Eye. It's condensed. I owed Dugu Bo a huge favor, so I naturally had to teach Dugu Bo the method of soul core condensation. Using soul bones to transfer toxins in the body can only treat the symptoms, not the root cause, but condensing poison-attribute soul cores can definitely treat both the symptoms and the root cause, solving Dugu Bo's potential hidden dangers once and for all. In addition, it is time for Dugu Bo to know the efficacy of the strange velvet Babel chrysanthemum and the black jade sacred bamboo in the Ice and Fire Eyes. After taking so much fairy grass from Dugu Bo, it was only right to leave two plants for their grandfather and grandson. Chu Chengzhou didn't tell him in the past because he was afraid that Dugu Bo would turn against him. After all, if someone picked up his unique treasure, he would definitely feel unhappy. However, today is different from the past. He can't defeat the powerful Titled Douluo, but Dugu Bo, whose soul power level is only level 92 Titled Douluo, should be unable to do anything to him. There is no need to worry that Dugu Bo will be detrimental to him. Although it is unavoidable that it means "using the heart of a villain to judge the belly of a gentleman", when it comes to his own life, Chu Chengzhou can only do this. Two hours later, Chu Chengzhou and Dugu Bo arrived at the Ice and Fire Eye. "Boy Chu, is that soul core you are talking about really that magical?" Dugu Bo asked Chu Chengzhou hesitantly. "Senior, don't worry, you'll know when I gather it together!" Chu Chengzhou said with a smile. "Okay~, I'll let you watch." Smacking his lips, Dugu Bo nodded.
Afterwards, Chu Chengzhou found an open space next to the ice fire spring, sat down cross-legged, and tried to condense the first soul core again. The first time he was alive, the second time he was familiar with it. It didn't take long before Chu Chengzhou once again condensed a solid soul power the size of an egg, like a sapphire, in front of him. In an instant, a cyclone formed, and the solid soul power, which was rotating regularly in a clockwise direction, began to crazily devour the vitality of the outside world. At the same time, Chu Chengzhou clearly realized that while the solid soul power was devouring the vitality of the outside world, it was also actively devouring the soul power in his own body. In view of the low level of his soul power and the limited soul power in his body, Chu Chengzhou, while maintaining the continuous output of soul power in his body, also allowed his mental power to control the soul power in his body, reducing the speed of being absorbed. Anyway, while the solid soul power is absorbing the soul power in his body, it is also absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth from the outside world. Compared with the vitality of heaven and earth outside, the soul power in his body can be called a drop of water in the ocean. Even if his soul power output frequency If it is lowered, it will not have any impact on the formation of the soul core. Moreover, leaving more soul power in the body can also avoid the subsequent situation of insufficient soul power in the body. Of course, condensing the soul core is not just as simple as injecting soul power. Chu Chengzhou also needs to use his mental power at all times to maintain the stable operation of the solid soul power. Otherwise, once out of control, the formed solid soul power will turn into a powerful soul power bomb. Although it is far inferior to the mushroom bombs that emit endless light and heat, if it loses control on the eve of the formation of the soul core, the destructive power produced will definitely not be weaker than the powerful conventional missiles. After all, as time goes by, among the solid soul power, the proportion of soul power injected into Chu Chengzhou's own sixth-ring level will become smaller and smaller, and more will still be swallowed up a large amount of heaven and earth energy from the outside world.
