Douluo Dalu:Breaking Clan

In the battle between Yang Podi and the seven others, Yang Podi seemed to be at a temporary disadvantage. After all, he hadn't used any soul skills from the beginning, and his speed and strength were deliberately restrained, effectively limiting himself to the Soul King level.

But at the moment when the others surrounded him, Yang Podi suddenly reversed the spearhead, unleashing the Spear Emerges Like a Dragon directly toward Yang Ping'an.

Yang Ping'an, moving at an extreme speed, found his reaction lagging behind his pace and was forced to slow down his assault.

This brief moment was exactly what Yang Podi had been waiting for. Gripping his spear with both hands, he delivered a powerful, heavy strike that shattered Yang Ping'an's defense. Then, with a swift motion of the spear's body, the spear's butt slammed into Yang Ping'an, knocking him straight out of the arena.

It was only then that the other six realized Yang Podi's true target had always been Yang Ping'an.

However, Yang Podi didn't let up after gaining the upper hand. With a twist of both hands, his spear began to spin rapidly. The Breaking Soul Spear transformed into a sharp drill-like formation, directly piercing through the massive flames of Nui Meng's soul bone ability. The spear drill pressed forward relentlessly, aiming directly at Bull Meng.

Even though Nui Meng activated his fifth soul skill again, he was still unable to withstand the piercing force of the Breaking Soul Spear. He was forced back and suffered significant injuries.

Seeing this, Ye Lingling immediately concentrated all her strength on healing Bull Meng.

But Yang Podi once again swung his spear, releasing countless spear shadows that converged into a massive spear glow. The glow shot directly at Ye Lingling, as though it aimed to pierce through her entirely.

At the critical moment, Niu Kui and Yang Yuxuan stepped forward to block the spear glow, activating their strongest soul skills to withstand the attack.

On the other hand, Yang Tianyue ignored all other attacks and used her Breaking Soul Spear to unleash her fourth soul skill, aiming directly at Yang Podi in an attempt to rescue Ye Lingling by attacking the enemy's base.

Meanwhile, Dugu Yan summoned her massive Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor. From the serpent's mouth emerged a dense green mist, aiming to slow down Yang Podi's offensive.

However, Yang Podi swiftly dodged their attacks and instead turned his focus back to Nui Meng. With just a few successive strikes, he knocked Nui Meng out of the arena.

Yang Podi's primary strategy had been to go straight for the vital point, targeting Ye Lingling. But by using this move to attract the attention of the others, he skillfully employed diversion tactics to eliminate the strongest combatants—Nui Meng and Yang Ping'an—one after the other. Under the effects of the Killing God Domain, the effectiveness of everyone's soul skills was significantly reduced, and their reaction speeds were also noticeably slower.

With Nui Meng and Yang Ping'an eliminated, the combat strength of the remaining individuals was drastically diminished, to the point where they could no longer effectively hold Yang Podi back.

As expected, after the two were eliminated, the remaining five were swiftly defeated and knocked out of the arena by Yang Podi. Each one suffered serious injuries and heavy blows.

Standing on the stage, Yang Podi looked at the defeated group and said, "You are all too rigid in your thinking and lack flexibility. Protecting your support, Ye Lingling, is indeed very important, but you must also ensure your own safety."

"Ping'an, Nui Meng, the two of you have only recently acquired soul bones, and you still haven't fully mastered their abilities. Or rather, you've become overly reliant on these soul bones in battle."

"Additionally, you've never experienced true slaughter. Against my Killing God Domain, only Ping'an initially performed decently. The rest of you were completely inadequate. The Killing God Domain is something I comprehended through countless life-and-death struggles. Obviously, you've never gone through such an ordeal, which is why you couldn't respond effectively."

The seven of them fell silent. From start to finish, it seemed they had been led by the nose by Yang Podi, unable to display any of the advantages or coordination they should have had as a group of seven.

Yang Tianyue, however, remained somewhat defiant and said, "Big Brother, you're too cunning. You made it look like you were fully targeting Sister Lingling, but in reality, you used our attempts to save her to eliminate Brother Ping'an and Brother Nui Meng first."

Yang Podi couldn't help but chuckle. "When facing an enemy, they will do the same. Targeting the support, using diversionary tactics, and attacking where you least expect it—these are all strategies you will encounter. You must learn to deal with various unexpected situations."

Yang Ping'an, still confused, asked, "Big Brother, how do we train for this? The moves you used just now weren't particularly complicated, but you executed them so quickly that we had no time to react. Also, how much of your strength were you actually using just now?"

Yang Podi nodded. "Good question. Your observational skills are improving. From start to finish, I used only about fifty percent of my power and speed. If I had gone all out, it would have been nearly impossible for you to stop me."

"Your next training will involve slaughter. Within a 500-mile radius, there are several groups of bandits and mercenaries who murder and rob. I want you to wipe them out completely—leave no one alive."

"Today, rest and heal. Tomorrow, you'll set out. During the mission, you'll receive no protection and no backup."

"Among these groups of bandits and mercenaries, there are Spirit Emperor-level experts. Be especially cautious."

At this moment, Yang Wudi, who had remained silent, finally spoke. "Today's sparring session was a complete disappointment. On a real battlefield, the enemy won't give you a chance to perform at full strength. Remember this—either don't make a move, or if you do, go all out. Strike with the ferocity of a lion hunting a rabbit."

"These bandits and mercenaries are insignificant to our Breaking Clan. The only reason we haven't acted is to leave this task to you."

The seven nodded in acknowledgment. This battle served as a wake-up call, humbling their post-victory arrogance, especially Yang Tianyue, whose attitude had grown increasingly complacent after their championship win.

After everyone left, Yang Podi turned to his grandfather and asked, "Grandfather, I recall that our family's alchemy records mention a type of pill called the Explosive Soul Pill. Can it be successfully refined, especially with enhanced effects?"

Yang Wudi's expression darkened. "What do you want the Explosive Soul Pill for? It's a desperate measure. While it does temporarily boost soul power, it severely damages the user's foundation and has significant side effects, potentially stunting progress forever."

Yang Podi shook his head. "I want to refine a pill that can increase the age of soul beasts from over 90,000 years to the 100,000-year threshold."

Yang Wudi's eyes widened in shock. "You're aiming for a 100,000-year spirit ring? Judging by your current state, you'll soon reach level 70, but level 70 might not be sufficient to withstand a 100,000-year spirit ring."

Yang Podi calmly replied, "With my current physical strength, I should be capable of absorbing a 100,000-year spirit ring. Moreover, I'll break through to level 70 within ten days at most."

Yang Wudi pondered for a moment before responding, "The Explosive Soul Pill can indeed enhance the age of soul beasts, but the increase is limited for beasts over 90,000 years. It also requires an enormous amount of rare herbs, making it somewhat impractical."

Yang Podi smiled. "Grandfather, aren't you forgetting something? A 100,000-year soul beast guarantees a soul bone. No matter how many resources it costs, the exchange for a 100,000-year spirit ring and soul bone is worth it."

Yang Wudi sighed before nodding. "Based on our family's existing herb reserves, it should be possible to refine Explosive Soul Pills to meet your needs for your last three spirit rings."

Yang Podi shook his head. "I need at least six pills, possibly more. Ideally, eight would be sufficient."

Yang Wudi was puzzled. "You can only absorb three more spirit rings at most. Why would you need so many Explosive Soul Pills?"

Yang Podi sighed and hesitated before saying, "Grandfather, this is my biggest secret, something I've never shared with anyone."

Soul power surged around Yang Podi's body, and his entire form turned a shimmering silver-white, including his hair. He appeared as though he were made entirely of silver, resembling a pure metallic figure.

Yang Wudi was stunned. "What's going on? You're not even using your martial soul, yet there's soul power fluctuation—and this transformation?"

Yang Podi finally explained, "When I awakened my martial soul, I actually awakened two. My second martial soul is my body itself. With my current physical strength, even without using the Breaking Soul Spear, I can fight against Spirit Sages."

Yang Wudi burst into laughter. "To think my grandson is a twin martial soul holder! The Breaking Clan has hope for a resurgence!"

"However, if you want that many Explosive Soul Pills, are you planning to gain multiple spirit rings at once? It's best to max out your first martial soul before adding rings to the second. Otherwise, you risk the mutual repulsion between twin martial souls, which can lead to your body exploding."

Yang Podi shook his head. "I only plan to hunt two spirit rings this time. As for preventing twin martial soul rejection, I've already devised a solution."

Yang Wudi was surprised. "In the history of the Spirit Master world, only Bibi Dong succeeded in cultivating twin martial souls, and her method is a closely guarded secret. How did you figure it out?"

Yang Podi smiled. "The solution is simple. The issue with twin martial souls is that the body isn't strong enough to handle the simultaneous pressure of both. By continuously training the body and enhancing it with high-level spirit bones, the risk of explosion can be eliminated."

"Moreover, my twin martial souls are different from Bibi Dong and Tang San's. My second martial soul is my body itself, so there's no repulsion between it and the Breaking Soul Spear. I can even use both martial souls simultaneously."

As he spoke, Yang Podi summoned his Breaking Soul Spear, demonstrating that there was indeed no repulsion between the silver-white body and the spear.

Only then did Yang Wudi nod in relief, though he remained conflicted. "The resources of our clan are insufficient to produce too many Explosive Soul Pills, especially given the level of effect you're asking for. To elevate a spirit beast's age by 5,000 to 10,000 years, it would require an enormous amount of precious herbs and resources."

Yang Podi merely smiled and handed Yang Wudi a storage ring.

When Yang Wudi inspected the contents of the storage ring, he was utterly shocked and couldn't help but scold, "You rascal! These must all be from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. Just how much have you been hoarding?"

"And inside this storage ring, there are quite a few herbs that are thousands or tens of thousands of years old, but no immortal herbs. Are you still hiding something?"

Yang Podi chuckled softly. "Grandpa, I really don't have anything else hidden. Including what I gave to the four of them last time, I've basically taken out everything. There's only a little left."

"Oh, and Grandpa, you can use some of these to nurture the clan's elders. It would also be good to coordinate with my maternal grandfather's side. After all, this would strengthen the loyalty and overall power of the academy."

Indeed, Yang Podi had no ordinary herbs left—only the immortal-grade ones.

Yang Wudi finally nodded. "In the next half a month, I'll first try to refine two Explosive Soul Pills for you. You probably won't need more right away. I'll also study the pill recipe further to see if I can maximize its effects."

Then, as if struck by a thought, Yang Wudi asked, "Podi, does your father also have this many herbs with him?"

Yang Podi just smiled faintly and left.

Behind him, his grandfather's voice echoed angrily, "This brat! Hiding so many treasures from me. Watch how I teach him a lesson and show him who's the son and who's the father!"
