Douluo Continent: My Days in the Tang Sect.

Chapter 1262 Controlling Abyssal Creatures?

Control these kinds of organisms?

Jing Hongchen recalled those strange and bizarre abyssal creatures and fell silent.

How can we control it?

A collar?

"Your Majesty, I need more experimental data. This is the first time I've encountered this problem."

Jing Hongchen stammered as he spoke.

Xu Tianran also expressed his understanding, after all, it was his first time seeing abyssal creatures.

It seems we can only rely on Zhongli Wu?

However, Xu Tianran could not possibly place all his bets on Zhongli Wu.

"Experiment as much as possible, and try to find a way to control it," Xu Tianran ordered.

Jing Hongchen had no choice but to accept the order.

Xu Tianran sat quietly on the luxurious and magnificent throne, pondering his next move.

Feng Rong stood quietly to one side, her charming face full of grievance.

Ever since she learned that Zhongli Wu had returned, her dream of becoming the sect leader was shattered.

But that's Zhongli Wu, would she dare to object?

Can Xu Tianran protect himself?

impossible.

After all, Zhongli Wu's strength is undeniable, making him far more useful than himself.

Feng Rong was nothing more than a pet tamed by Xu Tianran.

However, Feng Rong's thoughts do not represent Xu Tianran's thoughts.

"Fengrong, how is the integration of the Holy Sect going?" Xu Tianran asked.

"Most of it has been integrated so far, but some of the elders are still fleeing with the followers and resources of the Holy Church," Feng Rong said honestly.

"Give the integrated Holy Church to Zhongli Wu and tell him it is a gift from me," Xu Tianran said.

Feng Rong nodded; she had no choice but to agree.

However, Xu Tianran's next words surprised and delighted Feng Rong.

"You will take that position as deputy leader."

Xu Tianran should have no problem installing a vice leader.

After all, Zhongli Wu and he now have a mutually beneficial relationship.

Feng Rong thanked Xu Tianran with delight, then spontaneously activated her Martial Soul Transformation and crawled under the table.

Xu Tianran leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes slightly.

I'm just waiting for the right opportunity.

The changes to the ancestral hall could not escape Kong Deming's notice.

When he saw the monsters die on the experimental table and disappear in a wisp of air, he realized that Xu Tianran had found the abyssal creatures and was about to engage in battle.

Once Xu Tianran learns of the benefits the abyssal creatures offer, his ambition will swell infinitely.

This will not be a good thing for the Sun Moon Empire, or even for the world.

Kong Deming brought over some experimental data on abyssal creatures.

Jing Hongchen remained respectfully standing to one side, waiting for Kong Deming to speak.

For Jing Hongchen, Kong Deming, the father of soul tools, was a highly respected master. He had been guided by Kong Deming more than once and had gained a lot of insights from him.

Jing Hongchen still holds great respect for the predecessors on the path of soul tools.

Even though Mingdetang and Gongfengtang are competitors.

After reviewing the experimental data, Kong Deming looked up and let out a long sigh.

The report states that it was "modified for use as a weapon."

This proves that Xu Tianran was determined to deploy the abyssal creatures to the battlefield.

"Do you know how this creature came to be?" Kong Dekong asked, unwilling to give up.

If the root cause can be addressed, there might still be a chance.

Jing Hongchen shook his head slightly. How would he know?

Xu Tianran is still wary of him.

"You should know how dangerous this creature is." Kong Deming put down the experimental data, his head slightly lowered, and he looked like he was in his twilight years.

"I know what I'm doing, Elder Kong, but I have no choice. Living within the empire is like searching for a large ship to take refuge on the high seas," Jing Hongchen said calmly.

After the words were spoken, both of them fell silent.

But in reality, a familiar figure simultaneously appeared in both of their minds.

If it's Ye Xiaozhi/Ye Nanxiao, they should be able to help. How can I contact them?

Jing Hongchen sighed, picked up the experimental data and put it back on the table, but accidentally bumped into a glass.

The glass overturned and landed upside down on the table, just covering some small metal parts.

Jing Hongchen glanced at the glass, then reached out to pick it up, when suddenly a flash of inspiration struck her.

It seems the recent commotion in the dungeon indicates that "Ye Nanxiao" has been imprisoned?

Kong Deming looked up, wanting to say something more, but followed Jing Hongchen's frozen pose to the inverted glass.

Huh? Why is this old man standing there in a daze?

Jing Hongchen's eyes regained focus, and she picked up the glass.

He feigned regret, saying, "Master Kong, if even you can't do it, then I must continue working."

Kong Deming glanced at the glass, then turned and left.

He remembered that Ye Xiaozi's clone was still in the palace dungeon, and perhaps it was time to send the clone back to report.

Having made up their minds, the two immediately dealt with their tasks after confirming that each other had left, and planned to head to the dungeon.

Jing Hongchen hurriedly reported to the Hall of Offerings that he needed to use biological materials for experiments, and then went to the dungeon.

After a quick check, He Xun let them pass.

The great Minister of Justice, He Xun, once again took on the role of the dungeon's gatekeeper on the very day that Xiao Ye No. 1 entered the dungeon.

"Master Hongchen is a rare guest indeed. What reason did you give? Biological experiment?" He Xun glanced at the application form and then continued to sit in his chair and close his eyes to rest.

Besides serving as Xu Tianran's collection, the prisoners in the dungeon were also used for biological purposes.

After cultivating for a while, Kong Deming swaggered into the dungeon, with a soul tool that looked like a large lampshade on his head.

He Xun did not sense anything was wrong.

Xiao Ye No. 1 was placed in the same spot as before, because there were basically no other inmates around him now.

In the silent cell, hurried footsteps suddenly echoed.

Jing Hongchen didn't even try to hide himself. He hurriedly passed through the cells and finally stopped in front of Xiao Ye No. 1's cell.

"You little brat, you're pretty carefree, aren't you?" Jing Hongchen looked at Ye Nanxiao lying in a pile of moldy hay and was furious.

"What can I do? I'm already a prisoner, how pathetic!" Little Ye No. 1 said without even looking up.

The latest novel is first published here!

He originally thought he would be able to develop his downline in the dungeon again, but he ended up in the same position as last time.

The original prisoners in the surrounding cells had all been taken away.

"Oh dear! What time is it! Something terrible has happened! Come and see this creature!" Jing Hongchen took out a soul guide recorder from his pocket and pinched a silencing bead in his left hand.

Xiao Ye No. 1 slightly raised his head and glanced at it.

"An abyssal creature? Xu Tianran encountered it? And even captured it?!"

"Yeah! They're even developing it into a biological weapon! Aren't you going to stop them?!"

Jing Hongchen spoke anxiously, completely unaware that Kong Deming, who was invisible, had already walked up to him.

Kong Deming looked at Jing Hongchen with surprise. He didn't expect Jing Hongchen to come looking for Ye Nanxiao.

"Could it be... that Ye Nanxiao also poached Jing Hongchen?"

He intended to hear what Jing Hongchen would say, after all, that old man was very cunning.

All that could be heard was Jing Hongchen anxiously saying, "Even I don't know how to conduct this kind of experiment!"

"You must think of a way to save me! I'm your father-in-law!"

Hearing this, Kong Deming was certain of Jing Hongchen's stance.

That old bastard actually used a honey trap!

And Ye Nanxiao actually accepted it!

Damn it!

Kong Deming leaned against the wall, listening quietly, without rushing out.

Now that he knows Jing Hongchen's stance, he can still manipulate this old guy in the future.

While Xiaoye-1 has a solution for the current situation, it's not a very good one.

After all, one would certainly be cautious of an enemy like Xu Tianran.

"Master of the Red Dust Hall, the creatures of the abyss won't obey you just because you put a collar or a birdcage on them. Food might work a little, but it's not very effective. So just make a copy of the collar that controls the soul beasts."

"The abyssal creatures, the ones you are now studying, all come from another world. Their ability to move must be due to someone secretly controlling them."

At this point, Jing Hongchen and Kong Deming realized that someone had brought abyssal creatures, and there was a high probability that the person also had a way to control these abyssal creatures.

So Xu Tianran was set up?

"Xu Tianran may not have been set up; he may have been playing along. After all, from a war perspective, abyssal creatures are indeed quite perfect weapons."

Xiao Ye No. 1 sighed. It could fight and withstand attacks, and it could also evolve on its own. When it died, it turned into energy and returned to wait for secondary use.

Isn't this perfect?

It's a pity that Xiao Ye No. 1 is not currently connected to Ye Nanxiao's brain network, otherwise it would be able to deduce the mastermind behind the scenes and begin its scheme.

Jing Hongchen was somewhat numb. This abyssal creature was quite something.

And this is a game within a game!

What a terrifying scheme! Xu Tianran was even willing to risk his life to get involved!

Jing Hongchen left in a hurry. He needed to verify what Xiao Ye No. 1 had said so that he could find a way to extricate himself.

At this moment, Xiao Ye No. 1 turned to look at the corner of the wall where Kong Deming was leaning. "Old Kong, I didn't expect you to have a habit of eavesdropping?"

Kong Deming knew he had been discovered. Although he didn't understand how Xiao Ye No. 1 had discovered him when he had clearly used a level nine peak soul tool to hide his body, he was confused.

Even that old fox Jing Hongchen didn't notice him.

Is what you're saying true?

Kong Deming revealed himself, his tone somewhat urgent.

"If I'm not 100% sure, I'm 99% sure." Xiao Ye No. 1 reached out and froze the cell, then slowly walked through the bars.

Kong Deming was too lazy to care what this guy was up to, and just stayed where he was, thinking.

Xiao Ye No. 1 wasn't in a hurry; he walked towards the deepest part of the prison.

The deepest cell area was mostly empty, but judging from the piles of rotten, blackened hay, Xiao Ye No. 1 suspected that the original inmates of this cell might have already died and turned to dust.

The matter will be resolved locally, and no further rituals will be performed.

As he pondered this, he arrived at the largest cell.

A fierce and domineering aura suddenly erupted from Chong Xiaoye No. 1.

By the time Kong Deming realized what was happening, it was too late.

Xiao Ye No. 1 had already placed his hand on the cell bars. (End of Chapter)
