Chapter 558: Chapter 558: Daming and Erming Enter the World, Absorbing Spirit Bones

Seeing that Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo were sincere in their commitment, Su Ming felt reassured. He trusted that both of them would make the right choices and keep his secrets safe.

Not long after, Su Ming and his companions arrived at Star Lake, where the Titan Giant Ape and Azure Bull Python were already waiting.

"Su Ming, you're here?" the Titan Giant Ape said in his usual friendly tone.

From the lake's depths, the head of the Azure Bull Python emerged, adding, "Su Ming, Sister Xiao Wu probably already told you our decision. Since you're here, I assume you're okay with it."

Su Ming nodded. "Yes, it's beneficial for me to have you both as my spirit souls. I won't need you to provide me with spirit rings since that wouldn't suit me well."

"By becoming my spirit souls, you'll be able to reconstruct your bodies because of your 100,000-year cultivation. However, when you reach 200,000 years, you'll likely still face the lightning tribulation."

They had known about this and replied, "Su Ming, we're ready. Let's begin."

Once Su Ming confirmed their decision, he recited the incantation for the spirit soul contract.

After some time, two young men, appearing around thirty years old, materialized before them.

Xiao Wu raised an eyebrow, remarking, "Daming, Erming, you two really chose to appear so...mature?"

Erming grinned and replied, "Sister Xiao Wu, we're going to live as humans in the outside world. It wouldn't make sense to look too young; this is just right."

Xiao Wu found it strange that these two grown men were calling her "Sister Xiao Wu," but it made sense. For outsiders, a Titled Douluo of their apparent age would be assumed to be in their sixties or seventies, their youthful appearance a side effect of their power.

After contracting Daming and Erming, Su Ming sensed their power levels and was surprised. "Daming, your cultivation has reached 170,000 years, and Erming, you're at 140,000. No wonder your strength is formidable—Daming, you're probably equivalent to a level 97 Titled Douluo, and Erming, around level 96. That's strong enough to pin down even Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo."

[Note: In my research, spirit beasts of 200,000 to 400,000 years correlate to level 97 Titled Douluos, so Daming's level has been adjusted accordingly.]

Chrysanthemum Douluo:

Ghost Douluo:

Daming nodded and said, "Su Ming, you should absorb our spirit bones now. It might even help you reach level 70."

Looking at the two dark red and dark blue arm bones, Su Ming sat down to begin the absorption process. Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo exchanged looks of envy, but they understood that Su Ming had his own opportunities and that he had generously provided them with the chance to solve their own issues through the celestial herbs.

Even though the Titan Giant Ape and Azure Bull Python's spirit bones weren't the perfect match for him, they were still of 100,000-year quality and would provide substantial power. Extra control and attack measures through spirit bones would be advantageous, especially since his abilities were primarily augmentative.

Once his strength was sufficient, Su Ming remembered the two-million-year-old Ice and Fire Dragon Kings at the bottom of the Yin-Yang Ice Fire Well. Those remains should yield spirit bones with potential synergy, possibly granting him impressive dual resistance to ice and fire.

As Su Ming absorbed the spirit bones, Daming and Erming evaluated Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo.

Daming started, "Yue Guan, I heard you're now Sister Xiao Wu's teacher?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo, slightly uncomfortable, replied, "Yes, I promised Su Ming I'd protect her as best as I can."

Erming sneered, "You? Protect Sister Xiao Wu? You couldn't even defeat me."

Ghost Douluo interjected, "Maybe we can't match your strength one-on-one, but don't forget what we're best at. No matter how powerful you are, our fusion technique can hold you in place for minutes."

Xiao Wu laughed, "Alright, Daming, Erming, we're all allies now. Let's keep things friendly."

"Remember, when you join the human world, speak less, observe more, and don't reveal your identities. We'll teach you about human customs," she added, turning to Erming. "Especially you, Erming. I'm afraid your temper might get you into trouble."

Erming looked down sheepishly. "Sister Xiao Wu, to be fair, you weren't exactly a saint either. Back in the Star Dou Forest, Daming and I spent quite some time cleaning up after—"

Xiao Wu cut him off, face flushed. "Enough! Just don't be impulsive out there!"

She knew she'd matured since meeting Su Ming; his influence had softened her "big sister" tendencies.

After an hour, Su Ming completed the absorption process, reaching level 70. Now, he only needed a seventh spirit ring to become a Spirit Saint. He began considering his next move, deciding who would accompany him to Sea God Island.

"Are you all set, Brother?" Xiao Wu asked as Su Ming opened his eyes.

He patted her on the head, smiling. "Yes, time to head to the Breaking Clan's territory."

Turning to Daming and Erming, he added, "Since you're joining the human world, do you want new names? 'Daming' and 'Erming' don't exactly sound intimidating."

Daming replied with a calm nod, "We've thought about that. From now on, I'll go by 'Niu Tian,' and Erming will be called 'Titan.'"

"Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, you know where the Four Great Clans' territories are, right? Lead the way to the Breaking Clan," Su Ming instructed.


Chapter 559: Chapter 559: The Po Clan and the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace

On the way, Chrysanthemum Douluo explained to Su Ming about Yang Wudi, the Po Clan's leader. His martial spirit, the Soul-Breaking Spear, makes him an offensive specialist. At level 81, he can rival some Titled Douluos in attack power, although that's not necessarily the case anymore.

Su Ming understood Chrysanthemum Douluo's hints, realizing he was referring to the former, weakened and poisoned Dugu Bo. In the original timeline, Yang Wudi's "trade injury for the kill" style would have posed a challenge to Dugu Bo, given his poisoned state and impaired strength.

As for the confrontation between Yang Wudi and the Snake Spear Douluo in the palace revolt, Yang Wudi only managed an even fight because Snake Spear Douluo held back to allow Qian Renxue to finish off Tang San—a plan that ultimately failed. If Yang Wudi were truly as powerful as he seemed, he wouldn't have needed Ning Rongrong's 90% enhancement to battle Snake Spear Douluo to a standstill in the final showdown. In fact, Snake Spear Douluo's strength far exceeded Yang Wudi's.

Despite some exaggeration, Yang Wudi's focus on pure offense does make him formidable.

Meanwhile, Qian Renxue's group returned to Heaven Dou City. Upon arrival, she took Yu Feng and others to report to the Heaven Dou Palace, summoning the three advisors from the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy to the hall.

"What?!"

Emperor Xue Ye shot to his feet after hearing Qian Renxue's report.

"Bring that disgraceful son of mine here!"

Fuming, Emperor Xue Ye couldn't believe his son had so foolishly driven such an exceptional talent straight into the hands of the Spirit Hall. Su Ming wasn't just any talented genius; he was someone who had received the inheritance of a god!

Court officials on either side of the throne stood frozen in fear, afraid to speak lest they incur the emperor's wrath.

Qian Renxue seized the moment, bowing her head and saying, "Father, please don't be angry. The damage is done, and we must consider our options. The Spirit Hall's power is formidable. Our only hope of withstanding it is through an alliance with the Star Luo Empire."

A barely perceptible smile crossed her face as she lowered her head.

"No!" Emperor Xue Ye shouted. "We'll discuss the alliance later; first, I need to deal with this ungrateful son! And as for you nobles, indulging in luxuries is one thing, but for you to scorn Su Ming, despite his exceptional talent and role as the Heaven Dou Team's captain, is unforgivable! What do you have to say for yourselves?"

The gathered nobles protested helplessly. "Your Majesty, we barely even know Su Ming! We've hardly met him, so how could we look down on him?"

The emperor's gaze turned icy. "Then why would Su Ming lie? Would he fabricate a story just to join the Spirit Hall? And what about Xuanzheng's actions? Even Dugu Bo has declared his withdrawal from Heaven Dou, stating he's repaid his debt!"

"Would someone as proud as Dugu Bo, a Titled Douluo, have any reason to lie?"

The silence was heavy as Xue Beng entered the palace hall, his face pale, his walk unsteady—a telltale sign of years of excess.

Upon seeing the emperor's expression, Xue Beng trembled and immediately fell to his knees. "Father, please allow me to explain! Su Ming's claims are absurd! He had always intended to join the Spirit Hall—"

Qian Renxue cut in, "Fourth Brother, do you even think before you speak? If Su Ming had truly planned to join the Spirit Hall, why would he first come to Heaven Dou Imperial Academy or help us win a championship? He had no need to do any of that."

"Su Ming joined Heaven Dou because he believed in this empire. He came here because of his loyalty to Heaven Dou and the presence of Dugu Yan and Dugu Bo here. But your arrogance and disdain for commoners drove him away!"

Stunned into silence, Xue Beng had no response.

Emperor Xue Ye looked at Xue Beng with utter disappointment. In the past, his behavior could be excused, but this time, his actions had cost them a god-level talent—a mistake that was unforgivable.

"Take this traitor away and have him beaten to death!"

The emperor's voice was harsh, and his anger was undeniable. Compared to the crown prince, Xue Beng was simply a disgrace, a stain that needed removal.

Xue Beng paled even further, pleading, "Father! You can't be so cruel! I'm your son! Just give me a chance to make amends!"

Frightened for his life, he couldn't accept that his years of debauchery would end this way.

Just then, Prince Xue Xing burst into the hall, having rushed over from his residence. Pushing aside the guards, he shouted, "Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
