Chapter 306: The True Face of the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass

Words : 3060 Updated : Oct 9th, 2025

"After a soul master reaches Soul Sage, their martial soul will undergo a qualitative change. What does your martial soul look like now?" Qian Renxue asked, a look of anticipation in her eyes. The originally miraculous Nine-Leaf Sword Grass, what would it look like now? Shen An then immediately summoned his own martial soul, the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass. At this time, the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass was no longer the original, glazed-glass-like, ultimately perfect sword body, but had turned into a blade of grass. Its leaves were like swords, with a total of nine leaves. As the leaves swayed, a sword qi would appear and disappear, breathing in and out a clear brilliance. Originally such a large sword had turned into a blade of grass. Logically speaking, it should be a little laughable. But Qian Renxue at the side had a grave expression. She could feel an indescribable sharpness from the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass. She could feel that the rank of this sharp sword qi was faintly about to touch the realm of the Angelic divine power she had received during her inheritance. Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but feel her mouth go dry. That was the domain of a god, yet Shen An was only a Soul Sage. Shen An looked at the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass in his hand and did not feel surprised. This was perhaps the true face of the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass. The previous longsword form was just something that the system had forcefully bestowed upon it. The sword form was just a physical form. The true sword path existed in the heart. The reason why the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass had become that ultimate martial soul was precisely because of that ultimate sword intent. Shen An couldn’t help but think of the scene he had seen when he had broken through, as well as the name he had given his martial soul at that time. How could it be such a coincidence? It completely matched the characteristics of one of the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts of the Primordial Era from his memory. Was it a coincidence? Or was it inevitable? Casting aside his distracting thoughts, Shen An no longer thought about it. Anyway, he couldn’t figure it out. He then turned to Qian Renxue with a smile and said, "Now that all the matters have been resolved, how about we go back to Spirit Hall together?" Qian Renxue suddenly moved closer, her beautiful eyes staring at Shen An’s as she questioned, "What, you still want to go back to Spirit City? With your current strength, protecting the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect should not be a problem. Is it worth going back to Spirit Hall to lurk?" Shen An lightly turned his head and said with some embarrassment, "You’ve guessed it." Qian Renxue just snorted lightly. She wasn’t stupid. It could even be said that she was extremely smart. How could she not guess Shen An’s intentions? Her eyes narrowed slightly as she moved closer to Shen An. The two were only a hair’s breadth apart. Shen An could even feel her warm breath. Shen An reached out and pushed her small head to one side. "If you want to talk, then talk. Don’t be so ambiguous with the distance." Qian Renxue pouted lightly. We’ve even had negative-distance contact. To talk about ambiguity with this little distance is laughable. "Then why are you still going back to Spirit Hall? It couldn’t be that you’re going to help me conquer the world, right?" Shen An nodded slightly. "It’s not impossible. If you truly have intentions for the world, I will help you. After all, the trend of great unification cannot be stopped." A light of joy bloomed in Qian Renxue’s eyes. Is this the man behind a successful woman? With Shen An’s combat power, and then calling her grandfather out of the mountains again, to unify the world would be as easy as turning over one’s hand. That woman Bibi Dong, what did she have to fight her with! As for whether Qian Daoliu was too old... bah, one or two hundred years old is precisely the time to strive. --- The Asura’s divine sense had successfully arrived at his loyal Slaughter City. The King of Slaughter, or rather, the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King, was at this time kneeling by his side. Although in theory his master was the Rakshasa God, unfortunately, the one before him was a true god. He could even, with a single thought, awaken the slaughtering divine power hidden in Tang Chen’s body and end his life. The King of Slaughter, along with the Asura’s divine sense, entered the Hell Road. The Hell Road, which was extremely difficult for a soul master, was just an ordinary small path in their eyes. It was just that when they reached the end of the Hell Road, the red light on the Asura’s divine sense was much more brilliant. The slaughtering energy he had left here when he had transcended this world was almost gone. "How could it be? The slaughtering energy here should be able to continuously absorb killing intent and slowly regenerate. How could it have been squandered away?" The Asura’s divine sense’s face was ugly. Although he was in the Divine Realm, he knew very well about the people who had passed through the Hell Road. After all, every one of them in theory possessed the possibility of inheriting the Asura God’s seat. He grabbed the King of Slaughter in one go, his face full of evil energy. "In a hundred years, haven’t only two people passed through the Hell Road? Why is all the slaughtering energy here gone!" The King of Slaughter was instantly drenched in sweat. How could he know? Wait, he remembered! "Lord Asura God, it’s not just two people. A while ago, another person came. He is the Spirit Hall Elder, Yan Chixia!" "That person’s martial soul is a sword, incomparably sharp, and is not affected by the magic-banning rules here. It must be this person’s doing!" "Lord Asura God, I really didn’t mean to bring him here. It was really that he put his sword to my neck. If I didn’t bring him, he would have destroyed the entire Slaughter City. I really had no choice." The King of Slaughter suddenly began to cry and complain. The Asura’s divine sense kicked him away in one go, his face uncertain. He instantly thought of the Shen An who had killed Tang San, and one by one corresponded the characteristics of Yan Chixia and Shen An, but they were not the same. But it directly told him that these two should be the same person. "Not simple. This person is definitely not simple. The Douluo Star is not allowed to have such a mysterious person. What’s more, to dare to not give me face and to kill my successor, he deserves to die!" The Asura’s divine sense’s tone was sinister. He then absorbed all the remaining slaughtering energy. Mmm, it wasn’t even as much energy as he had consumed to come here. The Asura’s divine sense, feeling the slaughtering energy in his body, fell into deep thought. What should he do next? His original plan was to find a way to revive Tang San. After all, although his body was destroyed, his soul was still there. An ordinary soul level was difficult to be killed by ordinary means. But he discovered that besides the Eight Spider Lances, Tang San actually had no soul remnant at all, not even a fragment. The Asura’s divine sense looked at the King of Slaughter who was bowing and scraping before him and slowly let out a turbid breath. He wanted to undo Tang Chen’s restraints and, in the name of a god, have him kill Shen An. It was just that, one can imagine that with Tang Chen’s means, if he were to break free, the Asura God’s seat would basically be in his pocket. But in his heart, he did not want Tang Chen to inherit his god-seat. Tang Chen’s personality was too domineering. Once he entered the Divine Realm, it’s unknown what kind of bloody storm he would stir up. And he was more inclined to be conservative, hoping that the Divine Realm could maintain its existing status quo. This was also the reason why he had a disagreement and even a contradiction with the God of Destruction, who was bent on expanding. He decided to go to another place. Although he was stronger than that god, that one, as the last person to become a god on the Douluo Continent, the means he had left on the continent should be more abundant. If things really couldn’t be done, then he would release the Tang Chen who was comparable to a demigod, have him kill Shen An, and then give him a mission that was certain to lead to death. And the place he was going to was—Sea God Island! Five days ago on Sea God Island, the Sea God looked at the phantom bathing in the Sea God’s light before him with satisfaction. This was precisely Tang San’s soul body (PS: Tang San will not be revived.) When the Asura God had left a backup plan on Tang San, he had done the same. And as the last person to become a god, the divine power he had left was very abundant. He could even draw Tang San’s soul to Sea God Island. Similarly, the Sea God could feel Tang San’s outstanding talent. There was a threshold to becoming a god, and Tang San just happened to have the aptitude to become a god. The Sea God stroked his chin, looking at the Tang San whose soul was also heavily injured. The backup plan he had left could only recall Tang San’s soul but could not know his experiences. He was very curious. What kind of existence could kill the person whom the Asura God had taken a fancy to? That old silver coin, the Asura God, seemed just and incorruptible, but in reality, he was not. He was a master at exploiting the loopholes in the law. To say that he hadn’t left a backup plan for Tang San, even if you beat the Sea God to death, he wouldn’t believe it. But even so, Tang San had been killed. He was really very curious about the person who had killed him. "Now I am also just a divine sense incarnation. It is not appropriate to go out. Why not have some sea soul masters go to the continent to investigate?" "If he is more outstanding than Tang San, it’s not impossible for me to choose him as a successor." "It’s just that this Tang San naturally has a contradiction with the Six-Winged Angel lineage. He is truly a rare talent." The Sea God’s deep gaze sparkled. The Divine Realm on the surface forbade mutual killing. The matter of him and the Asura secretly plotting against the Seraphim must not be discovered. And the best way not to be discovered was to not let the person who inherited the Angel God’s seat ascend to the Divine Realm, or to completely erase the Angel God’s seat! Thinking of this, the Sea God looked at the Tang San before him even more favorably. This one is still better. He seeks revenge for the smallest grievance and is narrow-minded. In the future, he will surely not let go of the Angel lineage. The Sea God was full of action. He immediately sent down a divine decree to Bo Saixi. A beautiful woman was shrouded in a long, bright red robe. Her long, sea-blue hair was scattered behind her, and when spread out, it almost reached the ground. Although this woman was beautiful, what was even more eye-catching was her temperament. It was a temperament that no one could compare to. Even the peerlessly beautiful Qian Renxue at this time was slightly inferior. What was most surprising were her eyes. Her clear blue pupils were deeper than the great sea. Her kind vicissitude was as if she had experienced the eternal years. And this woman was precisely one of the pinnacles of the soul master world at that time, the Ocean Invincible Bo Saixi, who was enough to be compared with Qian Daoliu. Receiving the Sea God’s divine decree, her expression was solemn. Since the Sea God wanted to know the situation on the land, then although she did not understand, she would still do it. After thinking for a moment, Bo Saixi soon summoned the Sea Star and Sea Ghost Douluos. "The Sea God has sent down a divine decree, wanting to know the recent intelligence on the continent. You two will go. Remember, try your best not to reveal your identities." Bo Saixi’s expression was serious. If one were to say that the sea was the world of Sea God Island, then the overlord of the land was definitely Spirit Hall. Spirit Hall had once sent people to Sea God Island, wanting to carry out a conquest, but had returned in defeat. Although there had been no action in recent years, that was because they knew the power of Sea God Island and its home field advantage. But this did not mean that Spirit Hall would forget the matter of losing two Titled Douluos and over a thousand soul masters. Thinking of this, Bo Saixi couldn’t help but feel a little headache. She didn’t understand why, when Spirit Hall had landed on Sea God Island back then, Lord Sea God would order them to fight to the death. Otherwise, with her good relationship with Qian Daoliu, she would not have let her subordinates make such a move. Hearing Bo Saixi’s words, the Sea Star and Sea Ghost Douluos respectfully agreed. Since it was a divine decree sent down by the Sea God, then they would definitely do their best to complete it. It was just that they didn’t care much about disguising themselves. They were Titled Douluos. For them not to run rampant was already very good. The Sea God looked at this scene and nodded with satisfaction. Immediately, he shot out a hidden Sea God’s light, which landed on one of the Titled Douluos. ... A month had passed since Shen An had broken through to Soul Sage. He and Qian Renxue had long since returned to Spirit City. However, what Shen An had not expected was that the matter of him killing Tang San in the Star Dou Great Forest had actually been publicized. Almost everyone who knew of Tang San’s actions was praising Shen An. Setting aside Tang San’s identity as the son of a soul beast... He first had a notorious teacher, and then in the Soul Master Tournament, in order to achieve victory, he had not hesitated to absorb the potential and life force of his own partners. Even more so, in the Star Luo Empire, he had gone on a killing spree against the Agility Clan, which had a blood relationship with him. All sorts of inhuman acts had long been publicized. No one was sad about his death, except for a certain someone who claimed to be the embodiment of wisdom. And this matter had also reached the ears of the Clear Sky Sect. Tang Xiao had not married and had no children. Tang Hao’s lineage was completely gone. The Sect Master’s lineage was equivalent to being completely cut off. What a humiliation this was. So, unsurprisingly, the Clear Sky Sect, in a fit of rage, had fiercely gotten angry and hadn’t even released any harsh words. This iron turtle was as steady as Mount Tai. And Bibi Dong was very satisfied with Shen An’s return. When asked why he had disappeared, Shen An had just fobbed her off by saying he had suddenly had an opportunity for a breakthrough. Thus, he had found a place to go into seclusion first. And in the Star Dou Great Forest, he couldn’t contact Yue Guan and Gui Mei, so he had returned. Bibi Dong did not have any doubts. In her view, with Shen An’s aptitude, before level ninety-five, it could be described as a smooth journey. And those few battles had even more so provided him with a deep foundation. Then she just let Shen An rest first. It wasn’t until today that she had summoned Shen An again. At the same time, in the discussion hall, it wasn’t just Shen An who had come. Almost all the high-level members of Spirit Hall, besides the Spirit Elder Hall, had all arrived. Bibi Dong’s scepter knocked. Everyone’s gaze turned to her. "In the current continent, Heaven Dou is weak, and Star Luo is cruel. Countless common people and soul masters are suffering. I think it’s time for a new master." "Therefore, I have decided to officially launch the Spirit Hunting Plan, to let this continent have only one voice." "And the Spirit Hunting operation is the beginning of clearing away all the obstacles under heaven." Shen An was impressively mixed in with this so-called highest level. However, his eyes held a trace of pity as he looked at Bibi Dong. With him here, all of Bibi Dong’s actions were nothing more than working for Qian Renxue. Shen An knew very well that great unification was the trajectory of history. Thus, rather than letting Bibi Dong unify the continent, it was better to let Qian Renxue take the throne. Incidentally, he could also use the process of assisting Qian Renxue to gather the fame of the world. It was simply a win-win. Bibi Dong was at this moment still speaking with great passion. It was clear that this Spirit Hunting Plan had been prepared for who knows how long. As Bibi Dong elaborated, the Spirit Hunting Plan first pointed to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family. Finally, Bibi Dong finished her speech with a sense of wanting more and ended with a sentence. "The launch of the Spirit Hunting Plan must be fast! We must crush all obstacles with the momentum of a thunderbolt that leaves no time to cover one’s ears!" Shen An, having heard this detailed and thorough plan, thought to himself, ’I have to hurry and tattle.’
