Chapter 67 of the First Person
"Look, Emperor Ling, what did I say! This group of Holy Spirit Church members contacted us on their own initiative! See, they've come right now!"
Emperor Ling, however, pointed disdainfully at the Dark Hummingbird: "With this kind of strength! What can they do!"
"Open the door! What else can we do? Are we going to sacrifice our Abyss Emperor? We're already struggling to build even a small space tunnel, let alone create a passage large enough for an army to pass through."
Hearing the conversation between the two Abyss Emperors opposite him, the Dark Hummingbird was secretly delighted. "Good thing we can't get out! If we can't leave the Abyss Plane, then we'll have no choice but to cooperate with their Holy Spirit Cult!"
"Hey you over there, what's your name in your Holy Spirit Cult?" Emperor Zhi asked the Dark Hummingbird across from him, raising his chin slightly.
"My lord! You can just call me Dark Hummingbird!" Although he was dissatisfied with the contemptuous attitude of the two abyssal creatures opposite him, who did not treat him as a human being.
But when he personally felt the oppressive feeling coming from the other side, he immediately and respectfully introduced himself to Emperor Zhi.
"A hummingbird? No wonder it's so weak!" Emperor Ling scoffed at the name of the Dark Hummingbird. Ever since the Abyss Saint King relinquished power to Emperor Zhi, Emperor Ling had been frequently ordered around by Emperor Zhi.
The Abyss Emperors whom the Wise Emperor casually strangled were all vassals who usually depended on the Spirit Emperor. Otherwise, given the Abyss Saint Lord's control over the Abyss Plane, He wouldn't have been able to discover what the Wise Emperor had just done.
However, in order to teach Emperor Ling a lesson, He tacitly approved of Emperor Zhi's actions. How could Emperor Ling not understand the intricacies of the situation? But he dared not defy the Abyss Saint King nor express his dissatisfaction with Emperor Zhi, so he could only vent his anger on the Dark Hummingbird.
The Dark Hummingbird listened with a wronged expression as the Spirit Emperor relentlessly mocked it, from its cultivation level and clothing to its personal attacks. These abyssal creatures were truly going too far.
Enraged, the Dark Hummingbird strode towards the spatial tunnel. He bowed before the astonished gazes of the Spirit Emperor and the Wise Emperor.
"My lords, our Holy Spirit Sect is very keen for this cooperation to succeed. After all, you wish to devour the Douluo plane, while we hope to use the souls and blood of hundreds of millions of people to construct a divine kingdom of death to become gods. Both of our forces share the same goal."
Emperor Zhi raised an eyebrow. "A divine kingdom of death, huh? The Ghost Emperor certainly has some ideas!"
"Become a god? You certainly have a way with ideas! Here!" The Spirit Emperor tossed out a black mirror the size of a palm.
"Cooperation isn't something that can be achieved just by talking! It involves the sincerity of our Abyss Plane. But we also hope to see the sincerity of your Holy Spirit Church in the future."
"Definitely, definitely!" the Dark Hummingbird replied, bowing and scraping.
Emperor Zhi and Emperor Ling turned and left, and the spatial tunnel slowly closed afterward. It was quite a while before the Dark Hummingbird dared to raise its head and look at the spot where the spatial tunnel had appeared, only to find the two had left.
He immediately flew into a rage, pointing at the spot where the Spirit Emperor had just appeared and cursing, "Go to hell! Just because you're wearing clothes doesn't mean you're a human being. You're just a fucking bastard, you've never fucked a fucking bastard in your entire life..."
The subordinates that Dark Hummingbird brought with him trembled as they listened to their boss's angry curses.
They just witnessed an embarrassing moment with their boss; will they die in the line of duty because of this in the future?
After venting his anger for a while, Dark Hummingbird led his group hurriedly towards the Holy Spirit Cult. There was no other way; the Ghost Emperor was already urging Dark Hummingbird to return and report the news to him.

Looking at the nine Title Douluos across from him, grinning and staring at him, Mu Chen trembled as he picked up his teacup and took a sip of water.
"Master Craftsman Mu, do you think we can start working now?" Yuan Entianshang looked at Mu Chen excitedly.
Upon learning that this master craftsman was actually the junior brother of the divine craftsman Zhenhua, all the powerful members of the Yuanen clan were filled with admiration for the Spirit Pagoda.
This Spirit Pagoda is amazing! Even the Divine Craftsman's junior brother has come looking for it. This makes all the powerful members of the Yuanen Clan wish they could immediately fly to the Star Luo Continent to clear the obstacles for the Spirit Pagoda there.
Mu Chen smiled, his face pale: "Your Majesty Tian Shang, please wait a moment. After all, we need to forge so many three-word battle armors in a short period of time. Let me call my senior brother first and see if we can send another Saint Craftsman to help."
"Okay! Okay! Okay! Mu Shengjiang, you go make the call first!"
Mu Chen smiled at Yuan Entianshang, then immediately walked to the balcony outside the conference room, locked the door, released a soul power barrier, and took out his soul communication device to call the culprit who recommended him.
The soul-guided communicator was connected. Mu Chen looked angrily at the communicator in his hand. Because Yuan Entianshang and the others were still in the room, he could only suppress his anger and grit his teeth as he questioned his good senior brother in a low voice: "Zhenhua! You bastard, how dare you lie to me! Didn't you tell me you were going to forge a four-word battle armor?!"
"That's right! The Ancient Tower Master said that a reclusive family has just joined the Spirit Pagoda. Several of their Title Douluo-level experts don't have three-word battle armor. So I'm handing this good job over to you. What's wrong! I'm letting you earn a title Douluo's favor, why aren't you willing?"
"Unwilling? You bastard! Do you even know there are nine Title Douluos? Nine of them! Even if you made me go without food and water, I would fight for a hundred or eighty days. Are you trying to kill me?"
So many! Upon hearing Mu Chen's accusations, Zhen Hua finally understood what Qian Gu Dong Feng meant by the big deal back then.
"It's alright! I even asked Old Shui to help! He'll be here today too! Then the two of you can forge it together, plus the holy craftsman from the Spirit Pagoda, it won't take long."
Don't take your good fortune for granted and make a Limit Douluo owe you a favor. If you weren't my junior brother, would I have entrusted this good job to you?
Mu Chen rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on. Although this was the first time he had ever encountered such a bizarre situation with the Yuanen clan, opportunities to gain the favor of a Limit Douluo were indeed rare.
"Sigh! Tell Lao Shui to hurry up! I'm going to forge now!" Mu Chen said weakly.
"Don't worry! Old Shui is much more proactive than you! He's really working hard for his granddaughter right now!" Zhenhua said with emotion.
Upon learning that the commission came from the Spirit Pagoda, Shui Xuanhai, the Water Saint Craftsman, was the most proactive. He didn't even want the forging fee, only hoping that Zhenhua could step in and use his forging fee as compensation to exchange for a peerless soul spirit for his granddaughter in the future.
With Zhenhua's intervention, Qian Gu Dongfeng readily agreed to their conditions. It was just a soul, nothing to Qian Gu Dongfeng.
Entering the conference room, Mu Chen stretched his arms: "Come on, everyone! Who wants to go first? Let's start forging now."
"Me! Me! Me! Here, Master Craftsman Mu, this is the metal I need." Yuan Entianshang excitedly pulled out his design blueprints. Who knows how long he'd waited for this moment? He, Yuan Entianshang, could finally wear his battle armor.
Chapter 126 Nine Douluo Go to Xingluo
And so, Mu Chen endured three long months that could only be described as hell. Every day, he would be forging iron the moment he opened his eyes, and then fall asleep the moment he closed them.
However, considering Mu Chen's hard work during this period, the Spirit Pagoda has been putting a lot of effort into his diet. Various nourishing herbs and ingredients that replenish qi and blood and spirit are provided every day in different ways.
As a result, despite forging every day, Mu Chen somehow gained several pounds.
With the final hammer blow, surging blood and soul power crashed against the battle armor on the forging platform.
*Whoosh!* Feeling the response from the battle armor, Mu Chen finally smiled with satisfaction. The work was finally finished. Thanks to his and the other two master craftsmen's hard work, as well as Zhen Hua's friendly assistance, they had successfully crafted seven sets of three-word battle armor within three months.
The Yuanen clan expert, who had been waiting for a long time, bowed excitedly to Mu Chen, who was still wiping his sweat.
"Thank you so much, Master Mu! If you ever need anything in the future, just come to me. I'll do my best to help."
"Of course, of course! Let's cooperate more in the future!" Mu Chen grinned broadly upon hearing this. To be fair, he had already amassed quite a few favors from Title Douluo-level individuals recently.
Moreover, the powerful members of the Yuanen clan are all simple and honest, unlike some powerful clans who are cunning and scheming. Overall, he made a good deal this time.
After seeing off the last Title Douluo, Mu Chen quickly stretched his limbs and prepared to return to Donghai City to reunite with his wife and daughter.
At this moment, Zhenhua slowly walked over. He handed Mu Chen a card with a smile. Mu Chen took it and examined it carefully.
The black card depicted a golden dragon coiled around a stick. Although it was very light, Mu Chen recognized it. This card was forged from the rare metal, magic gold.
He raised an eyebrow and looked at Zhenhua: "This is what the East Wind Tower Master asked you to give me!"
"Hmm! He said it would be too vulgar to talk to you about money. So he gave you this card. When Xiaoxi needs a spirit next time, you can take this card to the Spirit Pagoda in Donghai City and choose a rare spirit for free."
When Mu Chen heard the words "treasured soul spirit," he nodded happily. Soul spirits selected as treasured soul spirits are generally not sold to the public. These soul spirits are only supplied to the internal staff of the Spirit Transmission Tower.
"Alright! Then please thank Master Dongfeng for me. Let's cooperate again in the future. Okay, I won't say any more, I'm in a hurry to go home to find Xiaoxi and Bao'er!"
After saying that, Mu Chen patted Zhen Hua on the shoulder and hurriedly left. Although this trip wasn't a loss, Mu Chen was afraid that someone might suddenly appear and ask him to forge battle armor again, so it was best to leave first.
Watching Mu Chen's disheveled figure run away, Zhen Hua smiled and shook his head. He then hummed a little tune and went to find his apprentice.
I've been so busy helping Mu Chen lately that I haven't had a proper meal with my precious apprentice yet!
Inside the office of the Spirit Pagoda Master
As Qian Gu Dongfeng and Yuan En Zhentian were talking, someone suddenly knocked on Qian Gu Dongfeng's office door.
Qian Gu Dongfeng and Yuan En Zhentian exchanged a smile. If they were to be disturbed now, it would mean the first batch of three-word battle armor had already been forged.
"Enter!" Qian Gu Dong Feng called out loudly towards the gate.
Yuan Entianshang, his face glowing with pride, looked at his father with an overjoyed smile. His voice brimming with barely suppressed delight, "Father! Several of our family's Title Douluos now possess a three-word battle armor. We can prepare to depart for the Star Luo Continent."
Yuanen Zhentian smiled and nodded, then turned to Qian Gu Dongfeng: "Master Dongfeng, there's no time to lose. Let our Yuanen clan set off for the Star Luo Continent today!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Gu Dong Feng immediately stood up excitedly and bowed to Yuan En Zhen Tian: "Senior Zhen Tian, you've worked hard. It's just that the Star Luo Continent is in a hurry, otherwise I wouldn't dare to trouble you like this."
Yuan Enzhen waved his hand with a smile: "We're all family, why be so polite! It's understandable that Tower Master Zhang is anxious, after all, the opportunity to break through the limit is right in front of him. If it were me, I would be even more anxious than him!"
After exchanging a few more words with Qian Gu Dong Feng, Yuan En Zhen Tian took his second son to find the clansmen and prepared to set off for the dock.
After some deliberation, Qian Gu Dongfeng decided to send the Yuanen clan's top combat forces to the Star Luo Continent. Now, the two families can practically be considered in-laws.
Once they get there, anyone who dares to be impolite to the Spirit Pagoda will be taught a lesson by Yuan Enzhentian and his men's iron fists.
At this moment, the Qingfeng family of Qiangu
Qian Gu Qingfeng and Yuan Entian were raising their glasses in a toast. Just as Yuan Entian was enjoying his drink, he suddenly heard the ringing of his soul communication device.
He connected the communicator, spoke a few words to the person on the other end, and then hung up. He turned to Qian Gu Qingfeng apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, Brother Qingfeng, my father wants me to regroup immediately so the family can set off for the Star Luo Continent together. We won't be able to finish this wine."
Qian Gu Qingfeng smiled and waved his hand: "It's alright! We'll save this wine for when Brother Tiandang and you return in triumph."
"Alright! When I get back, I'll definitely have a good drink with you, Brother Qingfeng." Yuan Entian bowed to Qian Gu Qingfeng, then turned to look at his daughter.
"Ye Hui! Dad is going to the Star Luo Continent. You must take good care of yourself while I'm gone."
"Don't worry, Brother Tiandang, Chenran will definitely take good care of Yehui. Right, Chenran?" Xia Zheng gave her precious son a meaningful look.
Qian Gu Chen Ran nodded quickly: "Uncle Tian Dang, don't worry. I will definitely take good care of Ye Hui!" Hearing Qian Gu Chen Ran's assurance, Yuan En Ye Hui's face lit up with a bright smile.
The elderly father, Yuan Entian, on the contrary, nodded with a complicated expression. Damn it, he had a feeling that Qian Gu Dong Feng had deliberately transferred him away!
"Dad! You should hurry up and leave! Don't keep Grandpa waiting impatiently. You know Grandpa hasn't been looking at you lately." Yuan En Ye Hui, who was chatting and laughing with Qian Gu Chen Ran, noticed that his father hadn't left yet and kindly reminded him.
Upon hearing his father's name, Yuan Entian was startled. He nodded to Qian Gu Qingfeng and Xia Zheng Leng before immediately flying into the sky.
Just as Yuanen Yehui said, after the misunderstandings in their family were cleared up, Yuanen Zhentian made up for all the "fatherly love" that he had missed for Yuanen Tiandang that year.
Every day, Yuanen Zhentian would beat up Yuanen Tiandang under the pretext of helping him adapt to his newfound strength. If Qian Gu Qingfeng hadn't invited him out today, Yuanen Tiandang would have been beaten up as well.
"Hey! Who was that just now?!"
Upon hearing that familiar voice, Qian Gu Chenran was overjoyed and immediately stepped forward, calling out happily, "Master!"
"Chenran, long time no see! Wow! You've gotten quite a bit stronger, kid!" Zhenhua said with a smile, patting Qian Gu Chenran's shoulder.
Feeling the firm yet resilient muscles, Zhenhua nodded in satisfaction. A blacksmith needs a good physique, and his apprentice hadn't forgotten about body training lately!
"Brother Zhenhua, it's been a long time! Come! Let's have a drink." Upon seeing Zhenhua, Qian Gu Qingfeng and Xia Zheng Leng quickly greeted him.
Yuan Enhui nudged Na'er, who was engrossed in her work, and asked curiously, "Is this the legendary master craftsman Zhenhua?"
Na'er looked up and nodded: "Yes! This is one of Chen Ran's two masters. Uncle Zhenhua treats Chen Ran like his own son."
..............................
Seeing Yuan Entian reeking of alcohol, Yuan Enzhentian gave him a hard flick on the forehead in displeasure: "You brat! You don't even know to bring your father along when you drink, and you dare to eat alone."
Yuan Entian rubbed his head, feeling wronged: "Dad! You're wronging me! I didn't eat it all by myself. Brother Qingfeng asked me to come!"
Upon hearing that it was Qian Gu Qing Feng who had taken the initiative to contact Yuan En Tian Dang, Yuan En Zhen Tian nodded thoughtfully.
