Chapter 179

The Eastern Seven Stars Sect was established only a few years ago and already possesses such a massive scale—it's truly remarkable; the Li family's power is indeed terrifying, and our choice to join was correct, otherwise we couldn't have broken through from Soul Sage to Title Douluo in such a short time.

Within the sect, Flandre, peak lord of Dragon Eagle Peak, and Liu Erlong, peak lord of Red Dragon Peak, the married couple, stood atop the towering cloud-piercing mountain peak, overlooking the entire sect, and let out an involuntary sigh.

After they passed Li Fei's test, Li Fei helped them become Title Douluo, and their hearts turned completely toward the Li family.

Normally, Sect Master Li Fei rarely comes here; he's a hands-off manager, fully delegating all sect affairs to the two of them, and he hasn't returned to his own academy in a long time.

Gentlemen, long time no see; it seems my arrival is untimely, disturbing your leisure.

Suddenly, a laugh came from behind.

Flandre and Liu Erlong were startled—someone could appear silently behind them without being detected; just thinking about it is terrifying.

But upon seeing that the visitor was Sect Master Li Fei, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Sect Master, you've finally come." The person smiled slightly: "Indeed, it's been a long time; since the Eastern Seven Stars Sect was founded, you've appeared here fewer than five times—being a hands-off manager is really comfortable.

Ah, these are just small matters; mainly I want to test your ability to manage the sect." Li Fei gave an embarrassed dry cough and said.

Then, Sect Master, do you think we've passed the test?" The two looked around and asked with a smile.

Hmm, not bad." Li Fei nodded satisfactorily.

Tell me about the current state of the Eastern Seven Stars Sect.

Li Fei said.

Okay.

The three walked through the sect, mainly showing Li Fei around, then slowly reporting the Eastern Seven Stars Sect's achievements.

These years have indeed been hard on you.

These two hundred-thousand-year soul bones will serve as a reward for your hard work.

After listening, Li Fei finished touring the sect; it had already grown dark, as there was no way around it—the sect was too large, and he had arrived in the afternoon.

Thus he took out two hundred-thousand-year soul bones.

The two hundred-thousand-year soul bones exuding an ancient aura lay quietly in Li Fei's hand.

One soul bone is entirely milky white, covered with dense runes that seem like living things, appearing and disappearing, as if narrating ancient legends.

On the bone, two deep eye sockets like black abysses emit a solemn and mysterious light, as if able to discern all good and evil in the world.

The other soul bone is pure as moonlight, with smooth, elegant lines; its surface is as smooth as a finely polished gem.

On this soul bone, fine blue patterns like flowing rivers emit a faint blue light, adding a wondrous splash of beauty to this dark cavern.

Its eye sockets are inlaid with like night‑sky stars, emitting a dreamy, elusive light.

These two soul bones, tempered over the ages, possess a unique quality—both serene and powerful, like the shed remnants of ancient mighty beings, awaiting awakening by those fated.

Hundred-thousand-year soul bone!

Flandre and Liu Erlong's eyes flashed with keen light.

Such a precious soul bone—can it really be given to us?

Sect Master, don't you need it?

The two were doubtful.

This is an internal soul bone that cannot grow; I'm not interested." Li Fei shook his head, saying with a hint of disdain.

With the power of hair growth, he fundamentally lacks no hundred-thousand-year soul bones.

He even lacks no million-year soul bones.

The two exchanged a glance—truly a fine pair; to disdain even a hundred-thousand-year soul bone, perhaps only their sect master in the whole world could do so.

Since that's the case, we won't stand on ceremony!

Thank you, Sect Master, for your gift!

Flandre and Liu Erlong also didn't continue to stand on ceremony; although they had been working here all along and didn't know how deep the Li family's foundations were, they also realized that from the technology the Li family provided, one could see that the resources and technology the Li family controls are even more terrifying than they imagined.

Honestly following the Li family poses no problem.

The two took the hundred-thousand-year soul bones but didn't rush to absorb them, planning to wait until Li Fei leaves before doing so, since absorbing a hundred-thousand-year soul bone is certainly not as easy as imagined.

After storing the soul bones in the ring, Li Fei said: "This time I came, I still have two things to tell you."

Please speak frankly, Sect Master." Flandre and Liu Erlong became more respectful.

The two hundred-thousand-year soul bones were given away so casually that they felt a bit uneasy holding them.

Li Fei then told them about the Spirit Hall's convocation of powers meeting.

Sect Master, what do you plan to do? Is it time for our Eastern Seven Stars Sect to emerge?" Flandre, sensing the deeper meaning in Li Fei's words, spoke up proactively.

Regarding the Eastern Seven Stars Sect's emergence, they were quite excited; in fact, they had had this idea for a long time.

They wanted the world to see how strong the Eastern Seven Stars Sect is!

Give the world a shock.

Li Fei likely won't appear openly; thus, logically, the Eastern Seven Stars Sect currently has Flandre and Liu Erlong, two Title Douluo, holding down its strength, and they are capable of performing martial soul fusion abilities.

Even facing the Spirit Hall's threat, they feel no fear at all.

They really can't handle it—what about Li Fei and the entire Li family behind him?" Li Fei shook his head and said: "No rush, this isn't important; I'm just informing you that the Eastern Seven Stars Sect isn't ready to emerge yet—you are to secretly cooperate with the Divine Craftsman Pavilion and Divine Craftsman Tower to deal with any possible attacks they might launch on those two pavilions, covertly eliminating unnecessary troubles.

Yes." Flandre and Liu Erlong nodded.

We thought we could emerge, but it turned out we couldn't; however, it doesn't matter.

Emerging is merely a matter of time.

The second matter is something even more interesting than the sect's emergence." Li Fei said.

Oh?!" Flandre and Liu Erlong's eyes lit up again.

This concerns soul spirit technology.

Within the sect, from now on, no one should hunt soul beasts; everyone should use soul spirits, and here I have the finished product I first developed, which can be used now.

In Li Fei's hand appeared a ring containing many spirit balls, each of which holds a soul spirit.

He handed it over to Flender.

"This is some of my insight on crafting Soul Spirits; take it and study it well."

Li Fei placed his fingers on the glabella of Flender and Liu Erlong respectively, and a beam of light carrying rich information entered their seas of consciousness.

"Soul Spirits truly are a product capable of overturning the knowledge of Soul Masters in this world!"

The two briefly digested it, and adding what Li Fei had just said, they immediately let out heartfelt exclamations.

Too amazing!

This technique is truly amazing! It can completely overturn many things nowadays!
