Douluo: Marrying a Wife to Become a God, Having Children for Blessings

"This is the Martial God City?"

Standing at the edge of the Sunset Forest, the elegant and coldly aloof Ling Yuan Douluo was accompanied by several Titled Douluo elders of the Spirit Hall, including Serpent Spear Douluo and Ghost Leopard Douluo.

When they laid eyes on the towering city before them—800 meters high, 400 meters thick, and sprawling across an unmeasurable expanse—they were utterly stunned.

Even though they had prepared themselves mentally before arriving, standing in front of the Martial God City and gazing at its colossal form, akin to an ancient behemoth crouching on the land, left them feeling as insignificant as ants.

It was hard to believe that this monumental city had been constructed by Zhou Yi in just three days.

Yes, that was the truth.

Four days had passed since Zhou Yi finished building the city. The feat was so astonishing that it attracted Ling Yuan Douluo and the other Spirit Hall elders, who had come specifically to witness it for themselves.

They were not alone—countless other Soul Masters had arrived for the same reason.

The Martial God City was still in its early stages, essentially just a framework. Although Zhou Yi had already completed the basic structure of the streets and buildings, they remained unfinished and required further decoration.

This was a colossal undertaking, consuming an immeasurable amount of resources and manpower. Zhou Yi had entrusted the task of decorating the city to Emperor Xue Ye of the Heaven Dou Empire and the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, famed for their immense wealth. In exchange, he offered them a single cultivation technique: Solitary Yang Technique—a simplified foundational internal energy method Zhou Yi had previously given to Qian Xunji as a wedding gift.

This highlighted the power of possessing core technology. Even a technique deemed "trash" could provide a lifetime of wealth. At the very least, it was enough for Zhou Yi to thrive until the official establishment of his sect, Martial Sect.

Suddenly, a cry of pain interrupted their admiration.

"Ah!" Porcupinefish Douluo clutched his eyes and screamed in agony. Ling Yuan Douluo and the others immediately tensed, scanning their surroundings for threats. Upon confirming there was no danger, they relaxed.

As it turned out, Porcupinefish Douluo had ignored warnings about the three characters "Martial God City" engraved on the city's gate. He stubbornly decided to stare directly at them. Within three seconds, he felt as if a sword light capable of splitting the heavens and earth had descended upon him, slicing him in half.

Startled awake, he discovered his eyes were stinging, with tears of blood streaming down his cheeks.

The sight made everyone gasp.

Ling Yuan Douluo and the others now looked at the three words "Martial God City" with reverence and awe.

Terrifying.

Zhou Yi had imbued the inscription with his mastery of Heaven-Cleaving Sword Intent, an unparalleled force targeting the will and soul. Such power was beyond the resistance of even Titled Douluo.

With Porcupinefish Douluo's misstep serving as a cautionary tale, Ling Yuan Douluo and the others became exceptionally cautious as they entered the city.

The streets, tens of meters wide, were lined with towering buildings forged from solid earth and stone, as immovable as mountains. Though the structures remained unfinished, their raw grandeur was breathtaking.

The more they explored, the greater their admiration and reverence for Zhou Yi grew.

In their hearts, an idea began to take shape—a desire to join Zhou Yi's sect and study his martial arts.

Although their cultivation had reached Rank 91 or so, their potential for advancement was limited. At most, they could hope to increase their level by one or two ranks. Their future was already set in stone.

Yet, reaching this level of cultivation only made their yearning for strength more intense. In the past, they had no options, but now, a path had opened before them.

By joining the Martial Sect and practicing martial arts, they could potentially surpass their limits and even achieve Rank 95 or higher.

However, as elders of the Spirit Hall and Titled Douluo, they could not make such a decision lightly.

For Soul Masters like them, there were countless others harboring similar thoughts.

Zhou Yi, though unaware of the specifics, had anticipated this reaction.

Wasn't his grand display of divine abilities and overwhelming power precisely intended to awe potential enemies and attract followers to the Martial Sect?

If it didn't work, wouldn't it be a colossal failure on his part?

After finishing the construction of the Martial God City, Zhou Yi had not returned to Notting City. Instead, he ventured into the depths of the Sunset Forest, arriving at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

The 100,000 experience points he had previously received from Bibi Dong as a reward had not been used to enhance his martial skills. Instead, Zhou Yi planned to strengthen his Golden Bell Shield Technique.

Although the Golden Bell Shield had already reached its twelfth-level perfection, additional experience points could allow it to break past its limits and transform into an even more powerful technique.

However, the 100,000 experience points were insufficient for this metamorphosis.

Fortunately, Zhou Yi had a plan: when experience points fell short, natural talent, spiritual herbs, and a conducive cultivation environment would bridge the gap.

After a day of diligent effort, Zhou Yi successfully refined the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Infernal Delicate Apricot—two potent immortal-grade toxic herbs representing extreme cold and heat—into a unique Mysterious Ice Fiery Pill designed specifically to assist in advancing the Golden Bell Shield technique.

With the pill ready, Zhou Yi didn't rush to consume it. Instead, he sat cross-legged, entering a state of cultivation to adjust his condition and achieve optimal readiness.

An hour later, Zhou Yi slowly opened his eyes, which now glimmered with a penetrating divine light, captivating and awe-inspiring.

He raised his head to the sky. Although the heavens weren't entirely cloaked in darkness, the faint silhouette of the moon could already be seen.

"Golden Crow sets, Jade Rabbit rises!"

"The interplay of yin and yang—this moment is perfect!"

With a swift motion, Zhou Yi positioned himself in the very center of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. The convergence of both ice and fire energies in this location made it an ideal sacred ground for his cultivation.

With a deep breath, Zhou Yi swallowed the specially refined Mysterious Ice Fiery Pill. Instantly, a terrifying force of extreme cold and searing heat erupted within him.

Simultaneously, the immense yin and yang energies from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well surged inward, besieging his body. Were it not for his mastery of the Vajra Body, this dual assault of internal and external forces could have crippled or even killed him outright.

Even so, Zhou Yi's body began to display stark contrasts:

One side turned a frigid white, emitting chilling frost.

The other side flushed crimson, radiating waves of heat.

Gritting his teeth, Zhou Yi desperately circulated the Golden Bell Shield at the Twelfth Level, using both the internal and external forces of ice and fire to temper his body. His ultimate goal was to break through and evolve the technique into the Thirteenth Level: Water and Fire Golden Bell Shield.

However, this stage required more than just body refinement—it demanded insight.

Even with the aid of the Mysterious Ice Fiery Pill and the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, understanding the profound principles behind the Thirteenth Level in a short time remained a monumental challenge.

But Zhou Yi had one final trump card.

"Add points!"

He funneled 100,000 experience points into the perfected Twelfth Level of the Golden Bell Shield.

In an instant, Zhou Yi entered a state of enlightenment.

His spirit seemed to merge with the heavens and earth, brushing against the eternal Dao.

The spring of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well bubbled, releasing faint steam.

In the surrounding forest, the sounds of nocturnal creatures filled the air.

Gradually, wisps of radiance began to coalesce around Zhou Yi, who remained seated cross-legged. At first, these were faint blue glimmers that converged to form enormous water-hued lotus leaves.

The water-lotus leaves, encircling Zhou Yi, unfurled and swayed gently with the breeze.

Soon after, tiny fiery sparks appeared, coalescing into blazing red lotus leaves.

Two layers of lotus leaves emerged:

The lower layer shimmered with water hues.

The upper layer burned with fiery brilliance.

Each layer consisted of three enormous petals.

As water and fire intertwined, a gentle wind arose.

The lower water-lotus leaves began rotating counterclockwise.

The upper fire-lotus leaves spun clockwise.

The two layers revolved in opposite directions, moving slowly and naturally, untouched by Zhou Yi's personal energy.

This harmonious dance of elements tempered Zhou Yi's body further, continually refining and transforming him. Immersed in the sea of ice and fire, he greedily absorbed its nourishment, while his consciousness remained in a state of profound enlightenment.

Boom!

No one knew how much time had passed before a tremendous transformation took place.

From the heavens above, an enormous flame manifested, radiating boundless heat.

Simultaneously, a vast, surging river materialized, cascading with unmatched power.

Within the blazing flames, the faint image of a Golden Crow emerged.

Within the flowing river, a shadowy Jade Rabbit ascended.

The astounding phenomenon above the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well lit up the somber night like twin celestial beacons, instantly drawing the attention of countless Soul Masters in Martial God City.

"Look!"

"What's that?"

The city erupted in commotion as countless Soul Masters scrambled to higher vantage points, gazing in awe at the summit's extraordinary spectacle.

Among those present in the city were Ling Yuan Douluo, Porcupinefish Douluo, and other elders of the Spirit Hall. They immediately ascended a building, their gazes fixed on the mountain peak where the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well resided.

Their pupils constricted, their eyes filled with astonishment.

Within the blazing flames, the Golden Crow took form.

Upon the surging river, the Jade Rabbit emerged.

Golden Crow and Jade Rabbit, together in the night sky!
