Chapter 12: Seeking the Disease by Taking the Initiative.
Chapter 12: Qian Xunji decides to take the initiative.
The Soul Hunting Forest is an asset of the Spirit Hall, and it contains the most soul beasts under 10,000 years old, while there are very few soul beasts over 10,000 years old.
Currently, we're only helping Qian Renxue and Qian Renshuang obtain their first and second soul rings; the soul beasts in the Soul Hunting Forest are sufficient.
As is widely known, the maximum lifespan for the first ring of an ordinary Soul Master is 423 years, a result derived from the lives of countless individuals.
But given Qian Xunji's understanding, which far surpasses the version's, how could he possibly allow Qian Renxue and Qian Renshuang to become ordinary Soul Masters?
His daughters took whale gelatin and diluted spring water from a young age to improve their physical fitness.
Six years have passed, and Qian Renxue and Qian Renshuang are now capable of absorbing soul rings from within the last two thousand years.
……
Yu Xiaogang waited for Bibi Dong in Wuhun City for less than a year before finally shaking his head and leaving Wuhun City.
Fortunately, it wasn't all for naught. During the four or five years he knew Bibi Dong, he traveled to many places with her and gained a lot of knowledge from the Spirit Hall's library.
The Spirit Hall truly lives up to its reputation as a holy land for spirit masters; its collections are far superior to those of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan.
It's laughable that his own father wanted to surpass the Spirit Hall, little did he know that in the eyes of the Spirit Hall, he was nothing more than a clown.
With this knowledge, even if he ultimately failed to seduce Bibi Dong, it would be enough for him to make a name for himself in the Douluo Continent.
……
Douluo Continent, Soul Hunting Forest.
Qian Xunji led Qian Renxue and Qian Renshuang to roam in the Soul Hunter Forest. The six-winged angels are of the light and fire attributes. As long as they find light and fire attribute soul beasts for them to absorb soul rings, Qian Renxue and Qian Renshuang's soul skills will naturally be quite good.
Soon, Qian Xunji found the target he was looking for: an 1,800-year-old luminous unicorn.
Compared to the Light attribute, Qian Renxue would prefer a Fire attribute soul beast to be her soul ring.
This Radiant Unicorn was naturally given to Qian Renshuang.
Qian Xunji immediately attacked, severely injuring the Bright Unicorn, leaving it on the verge of death.
Qian Renshuang followed closely behind, summoning a six-winged angel.
Even without soul skills, the six-winged angel possesses considerable destructive power.
Under the blazing flames, the Radiant Unicorn was killed by Thousand Frosts.
Qian Renshuang began to absorb the millennium soul ring, and her soul power began to rise.
After absorbing the spirit ring, Qian Renshuang's spirit power reached level 14.
The body of the Bright Horse was also taken away by Qian Xunji. A thousand-year-old soul beast is a good tonic for humans and should not be wasted.
Next up are Qian Renxue's two thousand-year soul rings.
Both spirit rings are fire-attribute.
Qian Renxue's soul power reached level 25.
……
Qian Xunji did not return to the Spirit Hall, but instead took the two of them to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
Having awakened his martial spirit, he can now consume immortal herbs.
The sooner you take this herb, the better.
Qian Xunji selected a magical herb for each of them.
Qian Renxue and Qian Renshuang began to absorb the immortal herb.
Qianxunji gazed at the two springs, one of ice and one of fire.
He had no intention of inheriting the divine positions of the Sea God or the Asura God, as he was certain that those two were filled with malice towards angels.
He planned to directly take the Dragon King's divine essence from beneath the Ice and Fire Springs and use it to forge a divine position.
However, it's not the right time yet. He still needs to make some preparations and obtain some system rewards to avoid the God Realm discovering that he has become a god.
He didn't want to be bound by the gods.
Isn't it boring to stay in Douluo Continent?
After consuming the immortal herb, Qian Renxue and Qian Renshuang's soul power broke through to levels 20 and 30 respectively.
Qian Xunji immediately helped them find the soul beast.
Qian Renshuang obtained her second thousand-year soul ring, and Qian Renxue obtained her third thousand-year soul ring.
Their soul power reached level 23 and level 32 respectively.
……
Douluo Continent, Martial Soul City.
Qian Xunji took Qian Renxue and Qian Renshuang back to Wuhun City. Now that they had awakened their martial spirits, it was time for them to go to school.
He sent Qian Renxue and Qian Renshuang to his family's Soul Master Academy, where they learned theoretical knowledge from the instructors there.
As for actual combat, Qian Xunji did not have the teachers from the Spirit Hall Academy teach him, but instead had the elders of the Spirit Hall personally instruct him and conduct battles with him.
Sometimes they would even use spirit beasts, having their two daughters fight against them.
……
One month later.
Life is back on track.
early morning.
"Father, Mother, Yingniang, Xiaoshuang and I are going to the academy."
Not long after Qian Renxue and Qian Renshuang left, Qian Xunji returned to the Papal Palace, while Leng Lingyuan had to deal with some affairs of the Spirit Hall.
……
Upon returning to the Papal Palace, Qian Xunji visited Bibi Dong once again.
Bibi Dong still couldn't conceive Qian Xunji's child.
Chihiro leaned against the pillow, contemplating life.
He felt he shouldn't continue to be so颓废 (颓废 is a difficult word to translate directly, but it implies a state of listlessness, apathy, and a lack of motivation); he should take the initiative.
"Teacher, may I go out and have a look?" Bibi Dong pleaded humbly.
"Bibi Dong, isn't this place pretty good? There's light, food, and a place to sleep."
"Spend more time cultivating."
"I'll come see you again in a while."
"Good girl," Qian Xunji said, ruffling Bibi Dong's hair.
"Alright, alright, teacher," Bibi Dong replied with a composed expression, though inwardly she was already cursing.
Damn you, Qian Xunji, six whole years have passed, and you still haven't believed me.
Six years!
Xiaogang, are you alright?
It seems I've been too accommodating.
No, I have to teach Qian Xunji a lesson and make him understand that I am not a toy for him to play with at will.
Unfortunately, Qian Xunji has already left the underground palace.
Bibi Dong's door was closed once again.
In the underground palace, maids were watching over Bibi Dong. These maids were all Soul Masters ranging from Soul Venerable to Soul King. Their purpose was to prevent Bibi Dong from escaping.
They can all use martial spirits and soul power, and are managed by Qian Xunji, Leng Lingyuan, and Xue Ying.
……
Qian Xunji left the Papal Palace and went to the Spirit Hall.
……
Douluo Continent, Spirit Hall.
"Ghost, what's the news about Tang Hao?"
"Your Holiness the Pope, we still haven't found him." Ghostly was ashamed, after all, His Holiness the Pope had entrusted him with the task of finding Tang Hao for four years.
"Ghost, you say the Douluo Continent is only so big, where could Tang Hao be hiding?"
"Your Holiness, I am truly ignorant."
"Alright, Ghost, you may leave now."
"Having nothing to do for a long time, I'll see how my luck is and whether I can run into Tang Hao," Qian Xunji muttered to himself as he walked out of the Spirit Hall to find Leng Lingyuan and inform her.
……
After speaking with Leng Lingyuan, Qian Xunji left Wuhun City.
We decided to go and check out Holy Soul Village first.
Tang Hao, Tang Hao, Ah Yin, Ah Yin, will you be in Holy Soul Village?
I hope my luck won't be too bad.
In the original novel, after Ah Yin's death, Tang Hao took Tang San and went into seclusion in Holy Soul Village.
In Qian Xunji's opinion, Tang Hao would not have chosen Holy Soul Village for no reason, after all, there are villages that are even more remote than Holy Soul Village.
Looking back now, Tang Hao and Ah Yin must have been to Holy Soul Village, and perhaps even lived around it for a period of time.
Just because the deacon of the Spirit Hall cannot be found doesn't mean he can't be found either.
