Chapter 180: Heart Trembles, Hands Tremble
Time passed, and after a few minutes, Ei furrowed her brows and murmured, "Gunpowder? Explosions?"
"It requires further research."
Ei had grasped the principle behind the power of Buddha's Wrath, Tang Lotus. It used the explosive force of gunpowder as propulsion to launch internal "hidden weapons" and their fragments, thereby creating immense destructive force.
However, gunpowder itself was already a "devastating weapon"!
If one had enough gunpowder, would there still be a need for fragments or metal shards to serve as the main source of damage?
"Dear husband, this hidden weapon is indeed ingenious. However, it seems overly complex, which diminishes its true value," Ei remarked softly.
"I will return to study it further."
Ei was clearly fascinated by the concept of gunpowder!
Kong, having overheard Ei's murmuring, couldn't help but be startled. Gunpowder? Explosions?
Would Ei tread down an irreversible path of destruction? Could such a thing even be studied safely?
Thankfully, this was the Douluo Continent and not their original world!
As expected of his Ei, she immediately recognized the true potential of gunpowder rather than being bogged down by the overly elaborate design of Buddha's Wrath, Tang Lotus.
"Alright, my dear wife! Just be sure to stay safe while conducting your research!"
Kong nodded, not stopping Ei from leaving. In truth, he was curious to see what Ei might develop using gunpowder.
A few kilograms of TNT could easily shatter mountains and boulders—a feat even a Titled Douluo could achieve. Depending on the situation, TNT's power could be even greater!
As for Ei's safety, Kong wasn't the least bit worried. Ei was a godlike figure—a woman capable of slicing through centuries with a single strike.
The idea that gunpowder could harm her? Laughable!
"Mm," Ei acknowledged with a nod. She placed a light kiss on Kong's forehead before tracing her right hand through the void, creating a portal. Her figure vanished from the auction hall in an instant.
Kong was already used to this; Ei had merely returned to the Pure Heartland.
Chen Xin, Ning Fengzhi, Tang San, and Yu Xiaogang stood frozen in disbelief, staring at the spot where Ei had disappeared.
When they finally came to their senses, their bodies trembled violently.
Their hearts quaked, their hands shook—what kind of power was this?
Without any fluctuation of soul power, she tore open the void and left as easily as saying a word!
Even Bone Douluo Gu Rong could not accomplish such a feat!
Chen Xin was trembling both in body and spirit, his eyes filled with fear.
The stronger one was, the more they understood the magnitude of such a gap.
He, Chen Xin, a Level 96 Titled Douluo, could never do something like this!
The disparity between his strength and this woman's was as vast as the heavens and the earth!
Chen Xin wasn't even sure if a Level 99 Peerless Douluo could achieve such a feat. What he did know was that a Level 98 Douluo absolutely could not!
His father, Dust Sword Monarch, had reached Level 98 on his deathbed, yet he had never possessed such abilities!
"Nephew, your esteemed wife is truly terrifying. Not only is she incomparably beautiful, her appearance unmatched in the world, but her strength also surpasses everyone on the Douluo Continent. She is awe-inspiring!"
Ning Fengzhi spoke with a bitter smile.
He was truly shaken to his core!
He suddenly understood why Yu Yuanzhen had almost turned against him back then.
This was someone not to be trifled with!
To tear through the void with her bare hands and create a portal—such a feat wasn't just beyond imagination, it was beyond belief!
And yet, it had happened!
Right before his eyes, it had happened!
The whole "one clan, two Douluo" pride of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan likely amounted to nothing more than a small inconvenience to such a "deity."
No wonder, no wonder Kong could kill Tang Hao at the Soul Saint level!
Even his first soul ring was a hundred-thousand-year soul ring.
With a wife like this, calling Kong a reincarnated deity wasn't far-fetched!
It also explained why Kong was so indifferent toward Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing. With a wife like this, he didn't need anyone else, nor would he dare…
"Young Kong, I've never envied anyone in my life, but you, you are an exception! Your fortune in life fills me with both envy and jealousy!"
Chen Xin added with his own bitter smile.
Kong's lips curled slightly upward as he touched his nose, responding with great humility, "Pure luck, just luck. With a wife like mine, what more could a husband ask for?"
"Kong's achievements today are all thanks to the support of my virtuous wife, paired with just a little of my own effort."
Hearing these words, Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin clenched their fists tightly, nearly grinding their molars to dust.
What kind of nonsense is this!?
Your own effort?
Hardly convincing!
They were well aware of Kong's actions in Heaven Dou City over the past few days. Effort? Hah! What effort?
Alright, technically speaking, maybe it was just slight effort!
Tang San and Yu Xiaogang exchanged a glance, their expressions complicated.
Even though they didn't fully understand what had just happened, Ei's display had left them deeply shaken.
They had never seen anything like it—an exit so extraordinary and seamless!
Tang San's heart was filled with confusion. Could that woman really forge the Buddha's Wrath, Tang Lotus?
What did she mean by saying that the weapon was too complex and had lost its original significance?
What exactly was she implying?
And what was her soul power level?
Tang San couldn't comprehend it—he simply couldn't wrap his head around it.
A pang of regret suddenly hit him. What if Ei really succeeded in forging it?
"Hmph, having high cultivation doesn't mean she can create the number one hidden weapon!"
Tang San snorted coldly in his heart, trying to comfort himself.
Besides, as Ei had mentioned, the production of Buddha's Wrath, Tang Lotus was excessively complex. Even if she could forge it, mass production would be out of the question!
After witnessing Ei's terrifying power, Yu Xiaogang wisely chose to remain silent. He might be bold, but he wasn't foolish!
In the white area of the auction hall, where the group was seated, there weren't many other people. What had just happened didn't draw much attention.
Indeed, even the sudden disappearance of a person failed to garner any notice!
Why would anyone focus on the "guests" of the white area when there were black and purple areas filled with far more important individuals?
From the moment Tang San and Yu Xiaogang arrived, Ning Fengzhi had discreetly sent away the staff nearby. The only "outsider" present had already left.
Their location in the white area was far from conspicuous, and by the time Ei left, no one even glanced their way.
Tang San and Yu Xiaogang sat in stunned silence, each lost in their own thoughts.
Meanwhile, Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi were grappling with a storm of worry, contemplating the future of their sect.
How could the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan survive and maintain its status in the inevitable tides of change?
As for the auction itself, they had long stopped caring.
Time passed, and the auction finally began.
A middle-aged man dressed in a formal tailcoat took the stage as the auctioneer for the evening.
The first item up for bid was none other than Shadow Shooting Hidden Arrow!
After the auctioneer's explanation, the crowd gained a basic understanding of the weapon's power. Unsurprisingly, most nobles showed little interest in such a hidden weapon.
What's the use of a weapon that could merely replicate the strike of a Soul Elder?
"The first item up for auction: Shadow Shooting Hidden Arrow! Starting bid: 1,000 gold soul coins!"
"Shadow Shooting Hidden Arrow?"
Ning Fengzhi glanced at Tang San and then at Kong.
Wasn't this the very "useless trinket" Kong had mocked earlier?
