Chapter 252 New Planning
Yang Podi rested at home for a period of time, ignoring everything outside and not cultivating. He simply sat or lay quietly, enjoying the rare tranquility and peace.
The entire family seemed to be in sync, and no one disturbed Yang Podi and Ye Lingling's private world, as if everything was peaceful.
Especially in this tranquil environment, Yang Podi felt that he could control his killing intent well. According to Yang Podi's own estimation, even if he faced the Black Dragon Emperor, he could remain invincible.
That day, Yang Podi came to the family, and it seemed that nothing had changed.
Everyone was working hard to cultivate, but in addition to the original five friends, there were also a few people from the Elemental Academy and Ning Rongrong.
Yang Tianyue, on the other hand, boasted to Yang Podi, "Brother, I've reached level 90 now, and I'll be a Title Douluo soon. Aren't I amazing?"
Yang Podi couldn't help but pat Yang Tianyue's head: "My sister is really amazing. She has reached the Title Douluo level so quickly. But you need to work harder, otherwise it will be difficult for you to break through to level 99 in twenty years."
Over the past two years, all five have made significant progress. Yang Tianyue has just reached the Title Douluo level and is now only missing one spirit ring.
Niu Meng has only reached level 86 after two years of sales, which is still some distance from becoming a Title Douluo. However, his uncle Niu Mang reached the Title Douluo level half a year ago and has already obtained a spirit ring.
Ye Lingling and Yang Ping'an are both level 94, which is considered quite high.
Lone Goose is also at level 87, and there is probably no hope of breaking through again in the short term.
The others in the academy remained unchanged; it was already very difficult to advance beyond this level.
Yang Podi secretly found his father Yang Zhentian, grandfather Yang Wudi, and great-uncle Yang Wushuang, and gave all six soul bones obtained from Tang Chen to his father.
Yang Zhentian was stunned when he saw the six soul bones: "Po Di, where did you get these top-grade soul bones? They must be priceless."
Yang Podi thought for a moment before speaking: "These are from Tang Chen. Tang Chen died in the City of Slaughter, and I have collected these soul bones. This matter is of great importance, so it is best to keep it a secret for now and not let others know."
"As for these six soul bones, let them be our family's inherited soul bones from now on, and try not to let others know about them."
Grandpa Yang Wudi seemed a little sad: "I never imagined that Tang Chen, who dominated the entire continent his whole life, would die so inexplicably. By the way, Po Di, how did Tang Chen die?"
Yang Podi thought for a moment before speaking: "Tang Chen was the successor of the God of Asura. He failed the eighth test when he took the test of the God of Asura. He had been insane for years and was trapped in the City of Slaughter. He only died recently."
Everyone fell silent upon hearing this. God was something unattainable for everyone, and no one expected that the test of God would be so difficult.
Yang Zhentian was also a little conflicted at this moment: "Po Di, this divine test is so dangerous, then you and Tian Yue should be fine, right?"
Yang Podi shook his head: "I should be fine. I have plans for the future. Tianyue might be more troublesome. After all, she only has twenty years to break through to level 99. You should be more aware of the difficulties involved, especially breaking through from level 98 to level 99. It will probably be extremely difficult."
"Break through the enemy! Tianyue is now level 90. How will she acquire a spirit ring this time, and what kind of spirit ring will she get?"
Yang Podi hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Dad, as the successor of the Sea God, Tianyue must demonstrate her strength. To become a god, talent, hard work, wisdom, and courage are all indispensable. It's impossible for me to help her with everything. She must learn to face things independently."
"Otherwise, even if Tianyue really becomes a god, she will only be the weakest god. You must know that even gods can fall."
"I won't go this time to obtain the spirit ring. You guys take Tianyue to the far north, where there are some very good water-attribute spirit beasts. The key is to let Tianyue think independently and face things on her own."
Yang Podi had thought about Yang Tianyue's ninth spirit ring for a long time, but he ultimately decided to let Yang Tianyue find a way to obtain it herself. As the successor of a god, she couldn't possibly lack this ability, otherwise she wouldn't be qualified to inherit the godhood.
After hearing Yang Podi's words, everyone fell silent. The path to godhood is fraught with difficulties. Although Tian Yue has good talent, she doesn't actually have that much of an advantage over others. This last soul ring is a test for her.
Yang Podi hesitated for a long time before taking out several more items from his person, including two secret manuals and a small golden hammer.
These two manuals are the secret techniques of the Haotian Sect: the Haotian Nine Absolutes and the Great Sumeru Hammer. Since the Po Clan also possesses a weapon-based martial spirit, these two manuals are relatively suitable for them.
As for this small golden hammer, it is a heirloom of the Haotian Sect. Giving it to my grandfather is a way of giving him an explanation, since it is of no use to me personally.
Yang Wudi and Yang Wushuang held the small golden hammer, looking extremely sad. They had followed the Haotian Sect for most of their lives, almost a century, and never expected that they would end up like this.
Yang Wudi hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Podi, I think we should return this golden hammer to Haotian Sect. It can be considered our final contribution to Haotian Sect."
Yang Podi nodded: "This little hammer is of little use to us. We can just secretly send someone to return it to the Haotian Sect. It's best not to expose ourselves."
Next, everyone looked through the Haotian Nine Absolutes and the Great Sumeru Hammer on the table, and they were all amazed by the exquisite moves in the manual.
Yang Podi spoke again: "The Haotian Nine Absolutes and the Great Sumeru Hammer can also be used as our family's inherited techniques in the future. However, they may need to be modified based on our Soul-Breaking Spear, since the manual is designed based on the Haotian Hammer."
Yang Podi also gave a number of treasures he obtained from the Heaven Dou royal treasury to several members of his family. Unfortunately, there were no top-quality treasures that were very suitable for Soul Masters. However, with these treasures, the family probably wouldn't need to worry about cultivation resources for the next few hundred years.
After seeing these resources, everyone thought to themselves: These treasures must have come from the Heavenly Dou Empire's treasury. I never thought that all the treasures that were stolen back then were in Po Di's hands. Why does Po Di always like to do such petty theft?
Yang Podi thought for a moment before continuing, "I still have a 300,000-year-old fire dragon torso bone on me. This soul bone comes from my seventh soul ring. I'll keep it safe for now. If anyone needs it, they can come to me."
At this moment, Dad shook his head: "Po Di, you can keep this soul bone for yourself. None of us in the family are lacking soul bones for the time being. Actually, it's not bad for you to absorb a soul bone of this level yourself."
For the next few days, Yang Podi continued to live a leisurely life.
Yang Podi's younger sister came to him with a somewhat aggrieved expression: "Brother, why didn't you help me get my ninth spirit ring? With your help, I'm sure I can get the best spirit ring."
Yang Podi looked at Yang Tianyue with a hint of indulgence: "You little girl, I'm doing this for your own good. You've only just completed the eighth trial of the Sea God, don't you have the confidence to complete it on your own? You should know that the ninth trial is much more difficult than the eighth, and I won't be able to help you then."
Yang Tianyue's cheeks puffed out a little: "But I feel more at ease when you're around."
"Tian Yue, becoming a god is a lonely and independent path. Others will offer you very little help, and you need to learn to face it on your own. Tang Chen is the most talented genius in the entire Douluo Continent in nearly a thousand years, but he also failed the God Trial. So if you really want to become a god, you must work hard in the future, and put in a hundred or a thousand times more effort, otherwise you will also end up in a miserable state."
Hearing this, Yang Tianyue, unusually, began to think independently, but in the end, she still spoke with a determined look on her face: "Brother, don't worry, this time I will definitely get a very good soul ring, and I will definitely let you know that your sister is the best."
After Yang Tianyue left with a confident look on her face, Ye Lingling came to the room with some worry: "Po Di, are you really not going to help Tianyue get her soul ring this time? After all, she's still just a kid who's not even twenty yet."
"Lingling, becoming a god is definitely not that simple. I can help her for a while, but I can't help her forever. Besides, since the Sea God chose her, he naturally believes in her talent and strength."
Over the next few days, a large group of Soul Masters from the family went to the far north. All five of their friends went, and even Ye Lingling went.
All the deans of Tianxing Academy also went, including Yang Wudi, Yang Wushuang, Yang Zhentian, Niu Jinfeng, Dugu Bo, Niu Gao, Niu Mang, and even the newly joined Tianshui system member Shui Qingrou. After all, Shui Qingrou is a water-attribute Soul Douluo, and her role in the far north is stronger than that of an ordinary Title Douluo.
Yang Podi looked at the empty Tianxing Academy and was speechless. He just wanted to relax for a while and cultivate Yang Tianyue's independence, but even his wife went to hunt soul beasts. Wasn't this shooting himself in the foot?
However, Yang Podi, if you think about it carefully, the strongest people in this far north are only the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress. Yang Tianyue has the Trident of the Sea God, and there are nearly ten Title Douluo in total, so the safety issue should not be a big problem.
Killing the Snow Empress might be difficult, but with the Sea God's light emanating from the Trident of the Sea God on Yang Tianyue's body, the Snow Empress probably wouldn't dare to go too far.
As for the Ice Emperor, with everyone's strength, they should be able to kill him directly. The Ice Emperor is only less than 400,000 years old now, and even if he possesses the ultimate ice, he is probably not even a level 98 Title Douluo.
Besides, he also left a trace of his divine consciousness on Yang Tianyue and the others, so that he could go to their aid at any time if anything serious happened.
Yang Podi stayed alone at the highest point of Mount Almo, closing his eyes and even shutting down his five senses, to comprehend the entire world amidst the snow-capped mountains.
Since emerging from the City of Slaughter, his body and soul power seem to have undergone a qualitative change. The entire world seems to have changed in his eyes. The soul power in the world is like various rules, and these rules are the foundation of the entire world.
As time went by, Yang Podi's murderous aura gradually subsided, becoming incredibly calm. Even all his soul power gathered together, as if he had merged with heaven and earth.
Meanwhile, as the heavy snow fell from the sky, it did not melt upon touching Yang Podi, nor was it stimulated by his soul power. Instead, it covered Yang Podi's body.
As time went by, Yang Podi was covered in snowflakes, looking like a snowman or even an ice sculpture.
To an outsider, this ice sculpture showed no signs of soul power fluctuations, not even the presence of a human being. It was like a dead object, a mere speck in the vast ocean, while all things in the world were like the ocean itself.
