Soul Land: Top Comprehension-Chapter 360 - 232: Ambition (Part 2)

"Order, this requires your own insight and understanding."

Su Yu believed that Huo Yuhao, having come this far, with his guidance, had already thought quite a bit about order.

What level of godhood he could achieve ultimately depended on himself. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"Oh right, if you are suddenly summoned to the Divine Realm, do not panic or fear the majesty of the gods, just clearly express your own thoughts."

Su Yu used the Power of Destiny to transmit the message, reminding Huo Yuhao.

If the God of Emotions, Rong Nianbing, were to still seek out Huo Yuhao, then let Huo Yuhao take advantage of it.

If Su Yu remembered correctly, in the plane where Rong Nianbing originated, before Rong Nianbing’s rise as a protagonist, one of the strongest among the four gods was the God of Order, who existed at the same level as Rong Nianbing’s God of Emotions.

Of course, in the original setting, the God of Emotions was meant to be above the God of Order, but the original God of Emotions never managed to fully exert their power.

In Su Yu’s view, it wasn’t just the God of Emotions who didn’t unleash their power; the God of Order didn’t either.

Any divine position is merely a concept, and only by exploring this concept to its fullest can one completely unleash the true power of the divine position.

...

Huo Yuhao was puzzled by the meaning in Su Yu’s words, but he still committed them to memory.

With Brother Yu saying so, it was quite possible that he would truly catch the attention of a god from the Divine Realm.

And that god might help him understand the divine position of the God of Order!

Huo Yuhao wasn’t foolish; he understood the underlying meaning in Su Yu’s words.

...

Once Xu Tianran was dealt with, the next step was to swiftly unify the continent and simultaneously announce an entire system reform.

"What’s the situation on the front lines right now?"

Su Yu did not pay attention to the progress of the war since he knew victory was certain. He asked Huo Yuhao to ensure the plan was implemented.

"Right now, we have occupied nearly half of the Xingluo Empire’s domain, and during this war, we haven’t stopped working on the areas we’ve occupied."

Conquering territories while spreading soul-guiding devices among the population, to quickly alleviate the pain the war has brought to people.

"Hmm, let’s wait then."

Wait for the implementation of the plan organized by the Xingluo Empire.

"By the way, Brother Yu, why did Xu Tianran summon us back this time; what’s the purpose?"

Huo Yuhao was still unaware of his mission since returning.

While it was pleasing to return, Huo Yuhao felt restless without knowing the specific task.

"It should be to take action against the Holy Spirit Sect." Su Yu speculated.

With the unification war nearing its end, naturally, this emperor, who let the wolf into the house, wanted to quickly eliminate the Holy Spirit Sect’s influence on the Empire.

After the war is over, it might be more convenient to use the entire continent’s power for eradicating the Holy Spirit Sect, but that’s not an approach Xu Tianran wished to take.

After all, the Holy Spirit Sect’s roots were deep, inseparable from his collaboration as emperor.

"Take action against the Holy Spirit Sect?"

Huo Yuhao frowned, showing some concern.

The Holy Spirit Sect had two Extreme Douluo, could they manage them?

"Haha, Yuhao, there’s no need for you to worry. Although Xu Tianran is daring, if he’s planning to strike against the Holy Spirit Sect, he must be prepared. With the two teachers and ourselves stepping in, there shouldn’t be any issues."

Mirror Hongchen had power not weaker than Long Xiaoyao or Ye Xishui, and Kong Deming’s strength could suppress anyone.

Moreover, Su Yu wasn’t weak either.

If Xu Tianran could set up everything as the original story, Su Yu wouldn’t have any concerns.

Even if he hadn’t set up everything as foolproof as in the original, Su Yu was confident enough to deal with Long Xiaoyao and the others.

All Xu Tianran needed to do was ensure they were trapped.

Trapping both of them.

Otherwise, if the two Extreme Douluo didn’t want to fight, they could still manage to escape.

...

Su Yu’s speculation was entirely correct.

Xu Tianran was already prepared to act against the Holy Spirit Sect.

The Holy Spirit Sect had not played any significant role in this war.

Except for their help during Xu Tianran’s move against several princes, the Holy Spirit Sect’s assistance to Xu Tianran at other times fell short of his expectations.

The sudden surge of Mingde Hall, technological breakthroughs, and the emergence of integrated soul-guiding technology, as well as the Soul Spirit Cultivation System, Armor System, and Rune System, leading to a dramatic rise in the Sun and Moon Empire’s power.

The Holy Spirit Sect did not provide the expected support but instead brought more adverse effects than Xu Tianran had anticipated.

At the end of the war, he prepared to eradicate this sin he had previously committed.

As for why it was delayed until now...

"I also didn’t want to, but the Holy Spirit Sect’s method of directly extending the Soul Ring’s lifespan was just more straightforward!" Xu Tianran squinted his eyes wistfully.

Although Mingde Hall had submitted Su Yu’s method of extending the Soul Ring lifespan, it still couldn’t compare to the Holy Spirit Sect’s direct spirit-devouring method.

With the advent of Battle Armor, could the development of mechanical prosthetics be far behind?

After the war ended, Xu Tianran planned to establish research on this project at Mingde Hall, even if it meant halting further refinement of Battle Armor development to prioritize the rapid advancement of mechanical prosthetic technology.

The fusion of soul-guiding technology and battle armor with spiritual metal convinced Xu Tianran of the potential of mechanical prosthetics.

"Battle Armor, possibly rivaling the power of gods..."

Xu Tianran’s eyes shone with ambition.

To rival a god!

Even if only theoretically, the theory outright suggested that once perfected, the ultimate battle armor technology would definitely enable Extreme Douluo to wield divine power!

And what if they could rival a god?

I, Xu Tianran, will become a god!

With the power of a god, if I still can’t ascend, then I’ll march into the Divine Realm!

Kong Deming, Mirror Hongchen, Su Yu, Huo Yuhao.

These four alone were already fully qualified to possess divine-level power once ultimate battle armor was unveiled.

Apart from these four, we can cultivate more talents.

If Extreme Douluo is not enough, then Super Douluo should be able to wield power surpassing Extreme Douluo with the fusion of ultimate battle armor.

...

Xu Tianran indulged in his visions, while before him, Ninth-level Soul Guide Feng Yuan quietly awaited.

"Feng Yuan, how is the sealing demon array setup coming along?"

Returning from reverie to reality and feeling his crippled body, Xu Tianran became more urgent to resolve the Holy Spirit Sect quickly to complete unification and development plans.

"Your Majesty, while there was a slight discrepancy from the planned schedule, it’s fortunately a few years ahead. Due to Mingde Hall’s disruption, over ninety percent of the Holy Spirit Sect’s power in Mingdu has been eradicated, making our setup efforts much easier. Currently, the framework of the sealing demon array is complete."

"Only the framework?"

"Your Majesty, with the Supreme Elder Red Dust Hall Master and Su Yu taking action, cooperating with the sealing demon array, even merely the framework can definitely trap those two Evil Soul Masters in the array under their combined powers."

At that point, we could directly bombard them with a massive number of Ninth-level Fixed Soul-guided Cannon Shells.

Feng Yuan, in his setup of the sealing demon array, realized through Xu Tianran’s plans for dealing with the Holy Spirit Sect, the Sun and Moon Empire had such profound heritage.

Ninth-level Fixed Soul-guided Cannon Shells, numbering in the hundreds!

Thus, Feng Yuan was confident in eliminating the two Extreme Douluo.

Ultimately, it wasn’t faith in the sealing demon array but confidence in the Empire’s foundation.

Of course, the function of the sealing demon array was indispensable.

Otherwise, even numerous Ninth-level Fixed Soul-guided Cannon Shells would still struggle to fully target the two major Extreme Douluo.

"I plan to have the Supreme Elder personally defeat them within the sealing demon array; what do you think?"

Although Xu Tianran’s tone seemed consultative, it was undoubtedly certain.

Feng Yuan chuckled wryly before responding, "Your Majesty’s strategy, of course, will further ensure the extermination plan’s execution."

Xu Tianran gazed outside the hall, his gaze distant.

Now, just one step remained.

To lure those two over.
