Chapter 412 Martial Soul Training Manual
"Dong'er, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry..."
Lu Leng was crying like a child, constantly saying sorry.
Bibi Dong shook her head, she stretched out her hand to comfort Lu Leng.But when she stretched her hand halfway, she stopped again. She suddenly pushed Lu Leng away from her arms, with tears in her indifferent eyes, "From now on, we will have nothing to do with each other."
After finishing speaking, she yanked the spider spear out of Lu Leng's body.
Lu Leng's body trembled, black blood spurted out from the wound, and he felt a sharp pain in his chest, as if his blood had been sucked out, and he fell to his knees powerlessly on the ground.The two hands were even more difficult to support, panting heavily.
"My lord!" Seeing this, Di Tian and the others immediately wanted to attack Bibi Dong.
"do not come!"
Lu Leng stretched out his hand and roared loudly.
But this roar made his injuries worse, and he spit out several streams of blood.The arms could no longer support the body, and fell straight down.
When Bibi Dong saw this scene, pain flashed across her indifferent eyes. The spider lance just now was heading towards her heart. She wanted to end her painful life, but she didn't expect Lu Leng to block it for her.
Her spider spear is poisonous, and it also penetrated Lu Leng's heart just now, and the toxin directly penetrated into Lu Leng's body through the heart. If it weren't for Lu Leng's ability to be immune to poison, he might have died just now.
But the wound in his heart still remained, and Lu Leng's pain was indispensable.
Seeing Lu Leng's pain, Bibi Dong moved her fingers, as if she wanted to help Lu Leng, but in the end she resisted the urge.
Looking back at the Pope's Palace where she had lived for decades, a trace of loneliness flashed in her eyes, but there was also a trace of relief.Turning her head again, she gave Lu Leng a deep look again, her figure flickered, and she finally left this place.
Lu Leng watched Bibi Dong leave, but he didn't say anything to stop him. Although he felt a little bit reluctant, this ending can be said to be the best ending.
He wasn't worried that Bibi Dong would commit suicide again, for people like her, the suicidal psychology was under various influences.Once calmed down, such thoughts rarely come up again.
……
A week later, under the healing of the Heart of Nature, Lu Leng can be said to be fine.However, although the physical wounds healed, he was still a little uneasy, as if something was wrong.
But where exactly, he couldn't tell.
Putting aside the doubts in his heart for the time being, Lu Leng started his actions boldly on the second day after his body recovered.
First of all, he announced to the whole continent that he would be the pope, and at the same time he would be the second emperor of the Spirit Empire.The second is to regroup the army and deliver the final fatal blow to the Star Luo Empire.
Without the support of the group of lunatics in the Slaughter City, coupled with modern weapons and equipment, in just one day, the defense line of the Star Luo Empire was broken, and it directly approached the capital Star Luo City.But at this time, Lu Liang became more and more ruthless, and sent people from the Minzhi clan overnight to carry out aerial bombardment.Without leaving any room left, Star Luo City was destroyed in a blanket manner.
Lu Leng's attack has always been silent, and he is a blockbuster. He also kills the enemy with one blow, leaving no room for breathing.Therefore, in just one day and one night, the Star Luo Empire was completely destroyed and incorporated into the territory of the Spirit Empire.
So far, the two great empires have been wiped out, and Lu Leng has completed the unprecedented unification of the mainland!
Of course, this kind of unity is not a complete unity, it is the unity of places other than Sea God Island and Sun Moon Continent.However, if this kind of place is necessary, it will be a matter of time.
……
Wuhun City is now the capital of the Wuhun Empire.After Lu Leng became the emperor of the Wuhun Empire, he did not revoke the existence of the Wuhun Palace.Wuhundian is still independent, but it no longer acts on the surface, but gradually steps into the dark.It became Lu Leng's exclusive agency, which is somewhat similar to the existence of Jinyiwei in the Ming Dynasty.
In the Pope's Palace, Lu Leng listened to the final good news.
Hai Meier said, "Your Majesty, there is news from the front that the Star Luo Empire has completely surrendered. But when the Star Luo Emperor was captured alive, an unknown person appeared. He was very powerful. He not only killed the Holy Dragon Douluo Tuobaxi with one move, but also wounded a large number of troops. The Star Luo Emperor was also rescued by him."
"Have you seen his appearance clearly?" Hearing this, Lu Leng's heart skipped a beat.Killing Tuoba Xi with one move, no matter how strong this person is, he is also the existence of a peak Douluo.Inexplicably, Lu Leng thought of a person who also killed Tuobaxi with a single fork.
"It's a young man with long blue hair and a handsome face, holding a golden trident in his hand."
That's right, it's him, Tang San!
Lu Leng calculated the time, at this time it stands to reason that Tang San was the one who had passed the sixth and seventh divine exams.But he came out at this time, and his strength had also reached the peak Douluo. From this point of view, God Realm speeded up and gave Tang San a lot of care.
Thinking about it, because of her own reasons, Qian Renxue had already passed the ninth test of the angel god test in advance, and it was normal for Tang San to have an accident.Furthermore, the Shura sword was forcibly called away by the God of Shura, and the God Realm must have already observed the changes in the mainland.
Sure enough, there is not much time left for myself.
The next day, Lu Leng held the first official meeting of the Wuhun Empire!
Of course, it is better to say that it is a meeting than Lu Leng's order!
Lu Leng looked at these people in the middle of the hall, there were people from the Heaven and Earth Empire, some from the Star Luo Empire, some from the Zongmen, some from the Academy, and some from the Soul Beast.In a word, these people who were out of touch in the past are all gathered together now.
They are all loyal to Lu Leng now, their expressions are solemn and excited, and they are all waiting for Lu Leng's order!
"Yueguan, Guimei, from today onwards, you should try your best to find the whereabouts of Tang San and the others. Once you find them, report them immediately. Remember, don't confront them head-on. All you have to do is follow them." Lu Leng issued the first order.
Now the situation has tended to be stable, but Tang San is always a variable, if he doesn't get rid of it, there will be no peace for a day.
"Yes." The two replied.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Leng looked at Lou Gao again, "Lou Gao, now I need you to develop weapons of mass destruction with all your strength. The blacksmiths of the whole country are at your disposal, and the resources of the whole country are at your disposal. I have only one request, that is, at all costs, within a year, we must create a weapon that can kill Peerless Douluo!"
"Yes! The minister takes orders!"
Lou Gao said with burning eyes.
In fact, he wanted to do this a long time ago, but he just suffered from lack of resource support.In particular, Lu Leng was revoked as the Holy Son, and Gengxin City was also sealed by Bibidong, which made him even more vain for his ideas but could not be implemented.
But now, he finally has another chance!
Seeing his excited look, Lu Leng nodded, Lou Gao, a persistent blacksmith madman, might really be able to create a weapon that can kill Peerless Douluo within a year.He originally wanted to say that he made weapons to kill gods, but now no one has become a god, and he doesn't know what strength a god is, so he can only say it is a peerless Douluo.
After all, in this world view, Peerless Douluo is not weak, and can also contend with a small number of gods.
And Lu Leng is almost certain that if Lou Gao can create a nuclear bomb, then killing a god in seconds really shouldn't be too easy.
After issuing two orders, Lu Leng then turned his attention to Di Tian again, "Go to Sea God Island again, and give this letter to the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, telling him that if he wants to kill Poseidon, he can only cooperate with us. If he is obsessed with his obsession, don't blame us for sending him off first. I would rather let him die in our hands than become a stepping stone for Tang San to become a god!"
"Yes, my lord!" Di Tian's eyes trembled, knowing that Lu Leng was going to get serious.
In the end, Lu Leng set his sights on Hai Meier again, and ordered, "From now on, every city in the Wuhun Empire must erect a statue of me. At the same time, control the direction of public opinion among the people, manipulate literati and ink scholars to praise me, stigmatize the two great empires, and beautify the Wuhun Palace. You must shape me into an image of a wise emperor. Of course, there must also be a pragmatic direction. Let the people truly feel my goodness! They must have faith in me!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Hai Meier replied.However, her brows were slightly frowned, obviously this difficulty was very difficult for him.
Lu Leng doesn't care about her, it's her business, he just needs the result.
After saying this, Lu Leng took out another booklet with six large characters on it, Wuhun Cultivation Manual!
This martial soul training manual is exactly the training method taught by the Silver Dragon King to Lu Leng. He wrote down this training method, compiled it into a book, and printed it out in large quantities!He wants to make this kind of training manual spread all over the world, and make this Douluo Continent truly a world where everyone can practice!
He looked at the crowd and said, "This cultivation method was realized by me. After cultivation, you can break through without the spirit ring of a spirit beast. Moreover, his upper limit is higher. Even if you are currently stuck at level 95, it will still give you a chance to break through again."
As soon as Lu Leng's words came out, it was like a thunderbolt exploding in the hall, gasping again and again, and everyone looked at the thin booklet in Lu Leng's hand in disbelief!
"Your Majesty, are you telling the truth?" Ju Douluo couldn't help asking.He is one of the people who knows Lu Leng best, and there is almost no lie in what comes out of his mouth, even if it is an unbelievable thing, as long as it is said by him, Ju Douluo will dare to believe it.
Therefore, when he asked this question, he was not doubting Lu Leng, but rather surprised that there really was such a cultivation method in the world?
Of course, Lu Leng knew how much impact this incident had on everyone, so he didn't explain anything at the moment, and stood up directly, releasing his soul power, and immediately sprayed the audience with a strong breath.
At the same time, Luo Zhan Dao appeared in his hand, and the third soul skill, Wind and Thunder, was cast, and a small tornado appeared in the hall.
When everyone saw this scene and felt the violent tearing sensation coming from the tornado, they were surprised from ear to ear, because they found that Lu Leng didn't have a soul ring on his body!
It is understandable to use the martial soul without revealing the soul ring. After all, as long as you use it more, you can almost do it.But it is almost impossible to use soul skills without revealing the soul ring.
No one in the world can do this!
Unless this soul skill is a self-created soul skill.
But everyone has seen Lu Leng's soul ability before, and it is his third soul ability, Wind Sweeping Thunder!
Therefore, they really believed it, and at the same time they were really shocked.
There really is such a terrifying cultivation method in the world!A cultivation method that can be advanced without hunting soul beasts!
Everyone in the hall had fiery eyes. For the Titled Douluo, they were almost at a bottleneck now, and it would take a lot of mental and material resources to cross over to the next level.And even so, it's not the same for ten years to break through the first level.
But now, with this method of cultivation, they can quickly reach a realm that they could never achieve in their entire lives.
Besides them, the most happy ones are those soul masters below the title of Douluo.They still need to obtain a lot of soul rings in their lives, and the acquisition of each soul ring means bringing themselves into a dangerous place.
And it was twice, because even if they killed the spirit beast, they still had to prevent the power of the spirit ring from being too strong and blowing themselves up.
But now with this cultivation method, they no longer have to worry about this problem.You don't have to worry about encountering a ferocious soul beast that will kill you when you break through, and you don't need to worry about the soul ring exploding yourself, and you don't have to worry about the lack of years for the soul ring, which will waste your physique.
In short, this cultivation method is really good!
Seeing everyone's joy, Lu Leng also said, "Of course, this method of cultivation is good, but it's not without difficulty. Although it doesn't need a soul ring to break through, it needs one's own understanding of cultivation. The higher the talent, the more effective the cultivation will be. On the contrary, you will become a low-level soul master. But generally speaking, the advantages of this method of cultivation outweigh the disadvantages. Compared with the cultivation of soul rings, this method can be said to be invincible at the same level!"
"Your Majesty, can we practice this?" Someone in the hall couldn't help asking.
"Of course." Lu sneered, then looked outside the gate, his eyes were full of majesty and said, "Not only do you have to practice this, but you still have to practice, because you still have a very important mission!"
After finishing speaking, Lu Leng looked at Golden Crocodile Douluo.
Golden Crocodile Douluo didn't have to attend this kind of meeting, but Lu Leng specially invited him here.Golden Crocodile Douluo reluctantly attended the meeting because Lu Leng was the ruling elder and Qian Daoliu's grandson-in-law.
But what he didn't expect was that today's meeting took him by surprise.
"Senior Golden Crocodile, I want your elders in the Hall of Enshrinement to practice this manual first, and then promote it based on your actual income. At that time, with your brand reputation in front, I believe that the entire continent will soon change the traditional cultivation method and learn this new method spontaneously!"

"Dong'er, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry..."
Lu Leng was crying like a child, constantly saying sorry.
Bibi Dong shook her head, she stretched out her hand to comfort Lu Leng.But when she stretched her hand halfway, she stopped again. She suddenly pushed Lu Leng away from her arms, with tears in her indifferent eyes, "From now on, we will have nothing to do with each other."
After finishing speaking, she yanked the spider spear out of Lu Leng's body.
Lu Leng's body trembled, black blood spurted out from the wound, and he felt a sharp pain in his chest, as if his blood had been sucked out, and he fell to his knees powerlessly on the ground.The two hands were even more difficult to support, panting heavily.
"My lord!" Seeing this, Di Tian and the others immediately wanted to attack Bibi Dong.
"do not come!"
Lu Leng stretched out his hand and roared loudly.
But this roar made his injuries worse, and he spit out several streams of blood.The arms could no longer support the body, and fell straight down.
When Bibi Dong saw this scene, pain flashed across her indifferent eyes. The spider lance just now was heading towards her heart. She wanted to end her painful life, but she didn't expect Lu Leng to block it for her.
Her spider spear is poisonous, and it also penetrated Lu Leng's heart just now, and the toxin directly penetrated into Lu Leng's body through the heart. If it weren't for Lu Leng's ability to be immune to poison, he might have died just now.
But the wound in his heart still remained, and Lu Leng's pain was indispensable.
Seeing Lu Leng's pain, Bibi Dong moved her fingers, as if she wanted to help Lu Leng, but in the end she resisted the urge.
Looking back at the Pope's Palace where she had lived for decades, a trace of loneliness flashed in her eyes, but there was also a trace of relief.Turning her head again, she gave Lu Leng a deep look again, her figure flickered, and she finally left this place.
Lu Leng watched Bibi Dong leave, but he didn't say anything to stop him. Although he felt a little bit reluctant, this ending can be said to be the best ending.
He wasn't worried that Bibi Dong would commit suicide again, for people like her, the suicidal psychology was under various influences.Once calmed down, such thoughts rarely come up again.
……
A week later, under the healing of the Heart of Nature, Lu Leng can be said to be fine.However, although the physical wounds healed, he was still a little uneasy, as if something was wrong.
