Chapter 4: Resolution and Conflict
Yu Xiaogang—yes, that's our famous "Big Weapon"—Gangzi.
His spirit, Luo Sanpao, was a superior spirit to the Golden Holy Dragon, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, a true super spirit. However, due to his poor physical condition, he couldn't support his spirit's evolution, causing it to degenerate into Luo Sanpao. He
originally had a chance to change his fate when choosing his spirit rings, but he chose the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon spirit ring, effectively dooming him.
This led to the famous saying, "There are no useless spirits, only useless spirit masters." It was practically tailor-made for him.
Judging from Yu Xiaogang's experience, Shui Bing'er's spirit, the Ice Phoenix, is more like an incomplete evolution from Condensed Water Flying Luan to the Ice Phoenix.
Similar to Yu Xiaogang, Anzi's physical condition is so poor that his innate spirit power is only level 0.5.
Now, all he needs is external stimulation to fully evolve Shui Bing'er's spirit.
And these external stimuli are two: the immortal herbs of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, and the spirit rings.
There was no hope for the Immortal Grass right now; the only option was to acquire spirit rings.
Liu Yanyang then looked at Shui Bing'er and said calmly, "Your spirit is probably in an incompletely evolved state. When you reach level ten and obtain a spirit ring, tell Aunt Shui to make sure it's from a Phoenix-subclass spirit beast. Any future spirit rings you obtain must also come from this type of spirit beast. At the very least, they must be from avian spirit beasts with Phoenix bloodline."
Shui Bing'er pondered for a moment, then a glint flashed in her eyes. She likely understood what Liu Yanyang meant by incomplete evolution, and why the spirit rings had to come from Phoenix-subclass spirit beasts.
Phoenix-subclass spirit beasts are top-tier spirit beasts, each one rare and truly unattainable.
Watching Shui Bing'er lost in thought, Liu Yanyang knew she must have grasped the key to this.
Without interrupting, he turned slightly and walked towards the gate.
Shui Bing'er suddenly snapped back to her senses, looking at Liu Yanyang as he walked towards the gate, facing the sun. She abruptly asked, "Can you please not leave?" Without even turning back, Liu Yanyang extended his right hand and waved.
"Miss Shui Bing'er, if we are destined to meet, we will meet."
The sun, shining comfortably on the body in March, stretched the shadows beneath his feet.
Liu Yanyang walked towards the sun, his light radiant, casting a strange loneliness on his small figure.
This scene etched itself deeply into Shui Bing'er's mind, a scene she could never forget...
On the streets of Tianshui City, the weather was bright and sunny, and many vendors were busy hawking their wares, hoping to make more money in the spring.
Walking along the street, Liu Yanyang glanced around from time to time. Suddenly, a few hooligans appeared in front of him. He sensed that they all possessed soul power.
Seeing that they didn't seem to be casually strolling around like they were collecting protection money, Liu Yanyang became alarmed and immediately pretended to talk and buy something from a nearby vendor.
"Boss, do you think it would be useful for us to wait there?"
"What are you talking nonsense? Why should we go if it's useless? The gang leader has sent a message that the Lord of Jibei City has offered a huge reward."
"According to the news sent back by the gang leader, the family of three seems to have a past relationship with Shui Xinrou, the dean of Tianshui College."
"There is a high probability that they will escape here and seek help from Shui Xinrou. If we can get them, it will be a great achievement. By then, we will have money, women, resources, and everything we want."
"Really, boss? I haven't been to Xingchunfang for a long time. I heard that a group of beast-eared girls came. By then... hehe."
"Hahaha! When we catch them, you can count ten or eight of them if you want."
"Then hurry up, let's go and wait there outside the Shui family."
The pace of the few people quickened. Looking at the few people leaving, Liu Yanyang frowned and said in his heart.
"A few hooligans dared to stake out the Shui family. They're truly courting death. I wonder who gave them the courage."
"It seems we need to leave Tianshui City immediately. They'll be searching Tianshui City in three to five days at most. I can't burden Dean Shui."
Sarris, the Lord of Jibei City, was a member of the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family. For him now, the Heaven Dou Empire no longer had a place.
While he could showcase his talent and have the Heaven Dou Imperial family kill Sarris, this would effectively bind him to the family.
Most importantly, the Imperial family couldn't afford to allow him to grow in peace. After all, a genius is only a genius. Once targeted by other factions, he'd have virtually no peace.
Furthermore, Liu Yanyang wanted to kill Sarris himself, not through others.
If he joined the Spirit Hall, his talent would provide him with protection.
But Bibi Dong at the time was a lunatic, and her goal was to become a god. This was a struggle for power, and the ultimate outcome would be death or enslavement.
Joining the Seven Treasure Glazed Tiles Sect would offer protection from the nearby Seven Treasures Trading Company, but the price would be loss of freedom, which was not what Liu Yanyang wanted.
Becoming a disciple of Dugu Bo was indeed a promising option, but time was running out.
The carriage journey from Tianshui City to Heaven Dou City would take at least a month, and Saliss's men might discover Liu Yanyang before he even reached halfway.
So, there was no place for him in the Heaven Dou Empire, and the Spirit Hall was a troubled place. His only escape was the Star Luo Empire.
"Alas!" Liu Yanyang sighed softly. Only two days after his rebirth, he had only a passing understanding of the Douluo Continent: spirits, spirit power, spirit rings, meditation techniques... nothing was particularly profound.
He somehow envied those fan fiction novels whose time travels brought their own systems. They had everything they wanted, no worries at all.
His spirit, the Dragon Roar Spear, was a top-tier weapon, but unfortunately, he didn't know how to use it. His storage spirit guide ring only contained basic spearmanship.
As for the spirit ring configurations, there's nothing there. The inherited spirits of the major factions all require hundreds, even thousands, of years of experimentation to achieve the optimal spirit ring configuration.
While one might have visions that transcend this world, they're ultimately castles in the air. Without a solid understanding of the Douluo Continent, it's ultimately useless.
Then there's meditation techniques. All one possesses is a high-level meditation technique, far superior to anything available on the market.
But compared to Tang San's "Mysterious Heavenly Art," it's vastly inferior. After all, even after achieving godhood, he's still using it. He's truly clinging to his past.
Creating his own unique internal cultivation technique is impossible with his current abilities!
Liu Yanyang can't achieve the incredible comprehension and effortless mastery of techniques like other fan fiction protagonists.
Only one palace, two countries, and three sects can fulfill these three requirements, and unfortunately, he won't go there.
As he pondered, a name popped into his mind:
Yang Wudi of the Po Yi Clan.
They reside in Longxing City in the Star Luo Empire. Their Soul-Breaking Spear is a top-tier weapon spirit, ranked third in attack power, a testament to their dominance.
Their heritage is long and rich. His spearmanship and spear-type martial spirit ring combinations are definitely not inferior to those of the major factions.
The Po Yi Clan had just experienced a setback a few years ago, and the mutual support of the four single-attribute clans could serve as the foundation for his future power.
With his heart firmly set on destroying the Po Yi Clan, his current concern was how to safely reach Longxing City.
