Douluo: I, the Sun God

However, Chen Xin also didn't want to cause trouble. His most important tasks right now were to gather intelligence and find a suitable place to install the Rank 9 spatial teleportation Soul Tool. He didn't want to get tangled up with these people too much.

He gently shook his head, then took a step forward—and instantly vanished. This caused the city guards to change their expressions drastically. They immediately reported it, and in an instant, the entire Lihai City was put under martial law, prohibiting anyone from entering or leaving.

Meanwhile, Chen Xin had already entered Lihai City and began to wander around.

Lihai City was a city of the Yue Kingdom on the northern coast of the Sun Moon Continent, and it was a very important port city. The Sun Moon Continent was different from the Douluo Continent; its Soul Tool technology development was at least a hundred years ahead. Although maritime navigation had not yet reached the level of crossing oceans, it could definitely undertake long voyages, so many coastal countries on the Sun Moon Continent had navies.

The more he learned, the more Chen Xin felt the difference in development between this continent and the Douluo Continent. The Spirit Master level here was not high; a Spirit Master of the same cultivation from the Douluo Continent could defeat ten here. But the Soul Tool development here was very comprehensive, and armed Spirit Masters were no weaker than Spirit Masters from the Douluo Continent.

"Indeed, Xu Yang was right, Soul Tools are the future!"

Seeing more and more Soul Tools, Chen Xin became even more convinced of what Xu Yang had said earlier, and he sighed with genuine emotion.

However, he couldn't waste time. The Seven Kill Sword lifted his figure, and he transformed into a streak of light, flying towards the Imperial Palace of the Yue Kingdom. The Yue Kingdom was one of the weaker countries among the eight nations on the entire Sun Moon Continent. It huddled together with the neighboring Qing Kingdom to jointly resist attacks from other countries.

The strongest person in the Yue Kingdom was only a Spirit Sage, and an old and frail Spirit Sage at that. Even with the power of Soul Tools, the strength he could unleash was at most that of a Spirit Sage.

And he, Chen Xin, was now a Rank 99 peak Limit Douluo, already a demigod. Suppressing and seizing a small country would be incredibly easy.

Soon, Chen Xin arrived above the Yue Kingdom's capital city. Looking at the Imperial Palace below, his Spirit Power, hidden within his body, completely burst forth. The Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul appeared in his hand, and the soaring sword intent tore through the clouds, causing them to ceaselessly churn.

Chen Xin's terrifying aura instantly enveloped the entire Imperial Palace, and the palace immediately fell into chaos. The old and frail Spirit Sage of the Yue Kingdom felt this powerful force, and his face instantly turned pale. Forcing back his fear, he trembled as he picked up a powerful Soul Tool from his side.

"The Emperor of the Yue Kingdom, come out!"

A cold and domineering voice echoed throughout the entire capital city. The Yue Emperor shakily walked out from among the crowds surrounding him. Looking at the nine Spirit Rings—two yellow, two purple, and five black—beneath Chen Xin, he thought, It's over, but still stepped forward and respectfully said, "May I ask what Your Excellency seeks from me?!"

"The Yue Kingdom will belong to me from now on. Do you have any objections?!"

"No, absolutely not. I will abdicate immediately and yield to the virtuous!"

Hearing Chen Xin's voice, the Yue Emperor repeatedly waved his hands, not daring to have the slightest objection. Even if he did, he wouldn't dare say it, fearing that Chen Xin would kill him with a single sword.

Just like that, in only two hours, Chen Xin acquired the entire Yue Kingdom. He also found a hidden underground chamber for treasures within the Imperial Palace. Chen Xin was not interested in the treasures collected by the Yue Emperor; he cleared them all out and then placed the Rank 9 spatial teleportation Soul Tool in the underground chamber.

After installing the spatial teleportation Soul Tool, Chen Xin infused his own Spirit Power into it, and a spatial channel immediately appeared.

Not long after, Madam Ning, Ning Rongrong, Dugu Yan, and Dugu Bo, along with five Spirit Douluo, thirteen Spirit Sages, and over a thousand Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan disciples, walked through the spatial channel.

These people were all arranged by Xu Yang.

"Grandpa Sword, I missed you so much!"

Ning Rongrong saw Chen Xin and immediately rushed toward him.

"Uncle Jian!" Madam Ning also greeted him with a smile.

Chen Xin nodded, then put Ning Rongrong down and began to explain the situation on the Sun Moon Continent to them. Especially when he mentioned that the entire continent was currently in an eight-nation war, Madam Ning and Dugu Bo were also somewhat surprised.

"Yang'er told me a little about the Sun Moon Continent before. I originally thought the situation here was similar to ours, but I didn't expect it to be completely different!" Madam Ning said in slight surprise.

"The overall level of Spirit Masters here is not as good as ours. It won't be difficult to take over the surrounding countries. Our true opponent is only the Sun Moon Empire to the southwest. This is the only empire on the Sun Moon Continent. Although it doesn't have many Titled Douluo, its Soul Tool technology is far superior to ours."

"To what extent has their Soul Tool level reached?!"

"According to the intelligence records left by the Yue Emperor, the Sun Moon Empire possesses five Rank 9 Soul Tools comparable to the offensive power of Titled Douluo, and hundreds of Rank 8 Soul Tools comparable to Spirit Douluo. Even if we can take them down, we will suffer considerable losses."

"What about the Soul Tools left by the Yue Kingdom?!"

"The Yue Kingdom is just a small country. It only has a few Rank 8 Soul Tools. Even in alliance with the neighboring Qing Kingdom, they can barely resist attacks from surrounding nations!"

"Alright, I understand."

Madam Ning looked at the information Chen Xin had organized in her hand, her heart also startled. It wasn't that the Sun Moon Continent couldn't manufacture Rank 9 Soul Tools, but rather, due to the Spirit Master ranks, it was very difficult to succeed. This was completely different from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, which could on average only manufacture Rank 5 Soul Tools, with only a few individual Rank 7 and Rank 8 Soul Tools.

The only Rank 9 Soul Tool was still manufactured by Xu Yang.

Chen Xin continued, "The Soul Tool development here is advanced; we need to adapt quickly. And although the Yue Kingdom is small, as our foothold, we must manage it well." Everyone nodded.

Just then, a scout rushed in to report: "Sir, the Qing Kingdom has learned that the Yue Kingdom has changed hands and is gathering its army, preparing to invade." Everyone's expression changed. They didn't expect trouble even before they had established a firm foothold.

But they weren't worried. After all, the overall strength of Spirit Masters on the Sun Moon Continent was truly too weak. One must know that even without any Titled Douluo taking action, among the people they brought were five Spirit Douluo, thirteen Spirit Sages, and a thousand Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan Spirit Masters.

Chen Xin sneered, "Perfect timing. I was just wanting to test the strength of the Sun Moon Continent's army." He looked at everyone. "Rongrong, Yanyan, you two lead the sect disciples and let the natives of this Sun Moon Continent see the prowess of our Douluo Continent Spirit Masters."

"Understood, Grandpa Sword!"

Ning Rongrong said excitedly and quickly led the group to depart. Dugu Bo glanced around and also went out.

After Ning Rongrong left, Chen Xin looked at Madam Ning and smiled. "Actually, I have another discovery. The inherited Martial Souls of the Xu family, the imperial family of the Sun Moon Empire in the west, are the Sun Martial Soul and Moon Martial Soul. However, our Douluo Continent does not have this Martial Soul legacy. Don't you think Yang'er might be connected to this Xu family?!"

Hearing this, Madam Ning was stunned, then looked at Chen Xin with some disbelief.
