Chapter 188 Sword Douluo
Yang Podi left the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well alone, intending to travel throughout the Douluo Continent to gain experience, especially to see how the major sects and other cities were developing.
Since arriving in Douluo Continent, Yang Podi has been under immense pressure and has been constantly scheming to strengthen his family. After years of hard work, he has finally amassed some wealth and is no longer in danger.
Yang Podi is now 1.95 meters tall. He has an average appearance, not handsome, but he looks very resolute and has a sunny disposition. He is not particularly muscular, but his muscles are very well-defined, giving him an air of power.
After leaving Sunset Forest, Yang Podi dressed in ordinary Soul Master attire, casually bought a black horse, and planned to travel around the Douluo Continent alone, to see the scenery and also to visit the so-called major sects and two great empires.
Our first stop was Thunder Canyon, the home of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family.
It must be said that Thunder Canyon is in an extremely dangerous location, especially since a large river directly isolates it from the outside world, making it a natural barrier.
The terrifying lightning element seemed to shroud the entire Thunder Canyon. No wonder the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan chose this place as their sect's base. It was indeed an excellent treasure land for lightning elemental soul masters.
However, it is clear that the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan is particularly domineering and exclusive. Non-disciples are not allowed to enter Thunder Canyon, while outside Thunder Canyon are various outer sects with a large number of Soul Masters.
Even many of the patrolling disciples have reached the Soul King realm, and the elders stationed in the outer sect are all high-level Soul Saints. As expected of one of the three upper sects, although there is only one Title Douluo, the number of Soul Douluos is indeed very large, probably more than ten.
A patrolling disciple, a Soul King, saw Yang Podi dressed in ordinary clothes and immediately tried to drive him away: "Who are you? This is the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. Outsiders are not allowed to enter. You'd better leave now."
Yang Podi looked at the patrolling disciples in front of him, couldn't help but shake his head, and then simply led his horse away.
He couldn't help but think to himself: The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan truly lives up to its reputation as one of the three upper sects. Even though they have declined relatively in recent years, they still maintain very strict control over the sect, and one could even say that they are quite domineering in their dealings.
The entire area within hundreds of miles was actually the territory of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan. Ordinary people only knew about the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan and had no concept of the Spirit Hall or the Heaven Dou Empire. This was probably due to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan's millennia-old foundation.
Next, we went to take a look around the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was quite interesting, as the sect was built directly in the mountains, which provided some protection.
Dozens of kilometers outside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's main gate, a separate city called Seven Treasure City was built. While outsiders were not prohibited from entering Seven Treasure City, the checks on outsiders were quite strict, and the main people coming and going were merchants.
This is very similar to the style of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, which is the largest commercial organization, or commercial sect, on the Douluo Continent.
Qibao City was very prosperous, with many merchants coming and going, and of course, even more disciples patrolling.
The disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School are relatively mild-mannered, not as domineering as the disciples of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan. Perhaps this is the way of businessmen.
It must be said that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has a very accurate and timely grasp of information. I only stayed in Seven Treasure City for one day, and the next morning, Ning Fengzhi brought Sword Douluo to visit me.
Ning Fengzhi seemed to be smiling: "Young friend, it's been a long time. I didn't expect you to have the time to visit my Qibao City. I naturally want to show you some hospitality."
Yang Podi smiled and said, "Sect Leader Ning, you flatter me. I am just an ordinary person. I recently wanted to relax a bit, so I thought I would travel around the continent alone on horseback, to see the beautiful scenery and broaden my horizons."
Sword Douluo, standing to the side, remarked with a touch of sentiment: "Young friend, you seem to be in high spirits. When I was young, I also enjoyed traveling the world alone with my sword, but unfortunately, I'm now troubled by worldly affairs and have lost that interest."
Yang Podi couldn't help but shake his head: "Senior Sword Douluo, you flatter me. As long as you have a will, what can't you do?"
Ning Fengzhi, on the other hand, seemed more enthusiastic: "It's a rare treat for you, young friend, to come to our Seven Treasures City. Why don't you visit our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School?"
Yang Podi seemed a little surprised: "Sect Leader Ning, I'm afraid this is inconvenient. I just want to wander around the continent."
Ning Fengzhi seemed to understand Yang Podi's concerns: "Young friend, you can rest assured. This is just a private invitation and does not involve any sect matters. Besides, Rongrong also misses the days when she was in the Tiandou Second Team. It's a pity that Mount Almo is too far away and she has never had the time to go there."
Yang Podi thought for a moment before speaking, "Then I'll have to trouble Sect Leader Ning."
Next, led by Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo, they toured the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School truly lives up to its reputation as the wealthiest sect on the entire continent. The entire sect is resplendent in gold and jade, and its level of luxury is comparable to that of an imperial palace.
Of course, they also met Bone Douluo and Ning Rongrong. Bone Douluo was quite surprised, not expecting Yang Podi to dare to visit the Seven Glazed Tile School. Ning Rongrong, on the other hand, was very happy, as if she had returned to the days when she was in the Heaven Dou Second Team.
After touring the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Fengzhi seemed a little smug: "Young friend, what do you think of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School? It's alright, isn't it?"
Yang Podi couldn't help but praise: "The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School truly lives up to its reputation as the wealthiest sect on the continent. It is indeed a place of great prosperity and excellence in all aspects, from sect management to other areas."
The conversation between the two seemed to go very smoothly.
Finally, Ning Fengzhi spoke up: "Young friend, are there any other places you plan to visit on this trip?"
Yang Podi thought for a moment before speaking: "I just want to travel around the world in a simple way. I first went to the outer edge of Thunder Canyon, and now I have arrived at Seven Treasure City of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Next, I plan to go to Star Luo City and Spirit City, so I can say that I have traveled all over the Douluo Continent. After I have traveled all over the world, I may plan to go out to sea and see the magnificent waves of the ocean."
Sword Douluo couldn't help but nod: "Young friend, you are indeed insightful and have an extraordinary state of mind."
"I have dedicated my life to the study of swordsmanship and would like to spar with you, young friend. What do you say?"
Yang Podi couldn't help but chuckle: "Senior Sword Douluo, you are a level 96 Title Douluo, my strength is far inferior."
Sword Douluo shook his head: "This has nothing to do with soul power level. I can suppress my soul power to the same level as yours, it's just a friendly spar. And I can guarantee your safety afterwards."
Yang Podi thought for a moment before speaking: "I have always wanted to learn from the masters of this era. It is rare that Senior Sword Douluo has such interest. Let's have a spar. Thank you for your guidance, Sword Douluo."
Next, the five of them arrived at a large training ground of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Ning Fengzhi dismissed everyone else, leaving only the five of them present.
Yang Podi spoke to Sword Douluo with a somewhat serious expression: "Senior Sword Douluo, since this is a sparring match, there's no need to suppress your cultivation level. Consider this my way of asking for your guidance."
The people around seemed to have some doubts, especially Sword Douluo, after all, he was a level 96 Title Douluo and was known as the number one attack Douluo on the continent.
Yang Podi summoned his Martial Soul, the Soul-Breaking Spear, and eight Soul Rings appeared simultaneously. The colors of the Soul Rings were: yellow, purple, black, black, black, and red. The appearance of the two blood-red Soul Rings in particular stunned everyone present.
"Yang Podi, Martial Soul: Soul-Breaking Spear, Level 84 Power Attack Type Battle Soul Master, please give me your guidance, senior."
Sword Douluo's expression also seemed to become much more solemn. He summoned his martial soul, the Seven Kill Sword, and displayed nine soul rings: yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black.
"Sword Dao Chen Xin, Martial Soul Seven Kill Sword, Level 96 Power Attack Type Battle Soul Master, young friend be careful."
Yang Podi gripped the Soul-Breaking Spear, and in a flash, appeared directly in front of Sword Douluo, thrusting the spear forward with his usual move: Instant Strike.
Sword Douluo reacted extremely quickly, slashing directly with his sword. The tip of the Soul-Breaking Spear collided with the blade of the Seven Kill Sword. The move seemed to be evenly matched, and both of them took a half step back.
Sword Douluo couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Young friend, you have tremendous strength."
"Senior's soul power is profound, I admire it very much."
Immediately afterwards, Sword Douluo swung his sword and slashed, sending out a huge sword aura. Yang Podi also gripped his spear with both hands and thrust it forward, sending out a spear light from the Soul-Breaking Spear. The collision of the two blows directly cleaved a hole in the arena.
Yang Podi once again darted forward and thrust forward, while Sword Douluo, wielding the Seven Kill Sword, countered with ease.
In just one minute, the two sides clashed multiple times, neither gaining the upper hand.
But Sword Douluo suddenly erupted, slashing down with his sword. The sword energy intertwined, forming the character "杀" (kill), seemingly possessing a strong killing intent.
Yang Podi swiftly swung his Soul-Breaking Spear, unleashing a spear strike as powerful as a dragon, the Soul-Breaking Spear seemingly possessed by a tyrannical dragon, savagely crashing into the word "kill".
However, with this one strike, Yang Podi was forced back five steps, and a mark even appeared on the ground, caused by the friction between his foot and the ground.
Yang Podi's face was unusually excited: "The Seven Kill Sword Technique is indeed powerful. Senior, you also took one of my moves."
Yang Podi's Soul-Breaking Spear unleashed countless spear rays, filling the entire world. Moreover, all the spear rays converged together, forming a massive spear beam that pierced towards Sword Douluo.
Seeing this, Sword Douluo swung his sword again and again, this time with two "kill" characters appearing. The spear light collided with the "kill" characters, and this time it was Sword Douluo's turn to be forced back, but he only took two steps back.
Sword Douluo couldn't help but speak up: "Young friend, your move was quite good. You must be a master swordsman as well. Now, let's see my soul skill."
Sword Douluo immediately used his fourth soul skill: Killing Intent Revealed, a huge cross quickly attacking Yang Podi.
Seeing this, Yang Podi immediately used his fifth soul skill: Tyrannosaurus Annihilation Strike. The Soul-Shattering Spear shattered the incoming cross-shaped attack like a tyrannosaurus charging.
Seeing that Yang Podi had blocked his soul skill so easily, Sword Douluo became interested and activated his soul skill again: Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin. Countless swords rained down in the sky and all pierced towards Yang Podi.
Seeing this, Yang Podi quickly swung his Soul-Breaking Spear to block the endless rain of swords, but he looked rather disheveled.
But in that instant, Yang Po's enemy figure suddenly disappeared and appeared directly outside the range of the sword rain. Immediately afterward, his fourth soul ring flashed, and he directly used his fourth soul skill: Tiger's Roar Breaks a Thousand Armies. Seven Soul-Breaking Spears appeared and quickly stabbed towards Sword Douluo from seven directions, and each spear seemed to have a lock-on effect.
Sword Douluo was somewhat surprised at this moment. He swung his sword repeatedly to block the attacks of the Soul-Breaking Spears, but the force seemed to be beyond his expectations.
The two then exchanged countless blows, fighting fiercely with spear and sword, neither seeming to gain the upper hand. Sword Douluo's soul power was deeper, while Yang Podi seemed to have the advantage of having a heavier and more powerful Soul-Breaking Spear. In particular, Yang Podi was able to barely keep up with Sword Douluo's attack speed.
Sword Douluo seemed even more excited: "Young friend, you'd better watch out for this next sword strike."
Sword Douluo's eighth spirit ring flashed, and a four-armed giant demon appeared in the sky. Each of its four arms held the Seven Kill Sword, and four crescent-shaped sword energies attacked Yang Podi from all directions. It seemed to possess infinite power, and even Yang Podi was somewhat suppressed. This was Sword Douluo's eighth spirit skill: Moving Mountains and Filling Seas.
Yang Podi gritted his teeth, his sixth spirit ring flashed, and he unleashed his sixth spirit skill: Golden Lion Roaring Sky Break. A huge golden light transformed into the phantom of a golden lion, meeting Sword Douluo's four sword energies head-on. However, Sword Douluo's attack was still stronger, and Yang Podi was forced back more than ten meters, with even a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
Yang Podi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said excitedly, "This move is interesting. Watch my strongest attack."
Yang Podi's blood-red eighth spirit ring flashed, and he swung the Soul-Breaking Spear, sending a slash flying rapidly, seemingly cutting through the surrounding void.
Sword Douluo's expression was solemn. After all, this was a 100,000-year-old soul skill, and no one dared to underestimate it. Sword Douluo directly used his ninth soul skill, God and Demon Slash, which released a huge space in the sky, and countless earth-shattering sword energies fell down, possessing power that could even kill a titled Douluo of the same level.
Unexpectedly, even with countless sword energies colliding with Yang Podi's slash, they were still no match, and the entire sky seemed to be sliced open. Clearly, Yang Podi had the upper hand in this move, but in the end, Sword Douluo transformed into a longsword and used all his strength to barely dodge the attack.
After everything dissipated, Yang Podi and Sword Douluo returned to the arena, but it was clear that Yang Podi had expended more energy than Sword Douluo.
A trickle of blood still flowed from the corner of Yang Podi's mouth, but he spoke with a hint of excitement: "Sword Douluo, isn't that enough? It'll get boring if we keep fighting."
Sword Douluo nodded: "It's almost there. Young friend, your 100,000-year soul skill is indeed powerful."
"Sword Douluo has profound soul power and outstanding swordsmanship. He truly deserves to be called the number one attack Douluo on the continent."
The battle lasted for about ten minutes. Both sides showed most of their strength, but overall, Yang Podi was still much weaker, at least in terms of soul power. He would be defeated in a prolonged battle, but if they fought to the death, they would probably only suffer heavy losses. Moreover, Yang Podi could leave the battlefield at any time if he wanted to.
