  2. Okay… not read it yet… I’m hoping for a miracle, you did kill me already, Xiao Wu and all the rest of us readers. Thank you Bagelson for such fast translations and I sincerely hope I can still read on with you guys after jumping into this shipwreck looking for that treasure… (salutes)

    • Thank you Bagelson, you’ve done it again. You’re always doing it, quickly translating the next chapter if the current ends on a heart wrenching cliffhanger. THANKS!

    • lol, i remember when Dai Mubai said that the most frightenening member of the seven devils was xiao wu…because injuring her will cause the awakening of Thousands Hands Asura. I can’t wait to see the supreme pontiff shitting her pants before Tang San. I wage on her head to be the one he bring to Clear Sky Sect

      • I hope so. But the time frame… he needs some super high speed leveling/training. Still, who could be more hated? He can do it… but plot requires direction. He can’t just walk up to the final boss. Spirit hall will probably have plans for clear sky that will accelerate the timeline, but he can’t beat the most powerful person before reaching his doulou form…probably?

  3. Hey Translator, I think you made a mistake, it’s not time yet…. Shouldn’t you stick to the plan to release only once a while (even though you already translated all 300+ chapters)… it’s more fun this way 😀

    • Doesn’t this actually benefit Tang San? If he powers up the blue sliver emperor to titled doulou level then makes his Clear Sky Hammer OP with only high level spirit beasts then sacrifices his Blue Sliver Emporor spirit rings, won’t be have both twin spirts with~100000 year spirit rings *9?

      Like

      • There is one potential problem Tang San’s fifth spirit ring. As the ring was created from Tang’s own soul what would happen if he lost it? Either he might loose is blue silver emperor or his life… Sure being Tang San I’m sure He will find a way to circumvent that but…

      • Regardless, if time was not a constraint, he could become title doulou, raise his hammer with 9x black/red rings (enabling him to stay at 90+) , sacrifice all rings on his ghost vine, and rebuild his emperor ability. –which should be easy with the aid of his OP hammer and clear sky clan.

  5. While all the resuscitating and getting stronger is cool, I’m still sitting here wondering what usefull ability a rabbit could give to grass?Blue Silver Grass that hops around on its own, or maybe Tang San can eat his own grass now, or the grass blades grow fuzzy fur???? WTF And what can you do with the arm of a rabbit? Hop around, jumping with only your right arm, growing cute little rabbit claws? idk man, can’T seem to find a way to use these thing that would not look ridiculous

        • I believe its because of her mother willpower. We can only wait to know what kind of ability Xiao Wu want to give him.

          Its only a theory though, I have no idea what ability its gonna be or if Xiao Wu have a say in this.

          Like

        • Just think of the most broken ability ever, and he’ll get it. That’s the rule for Tang San. It’ll probably be Xiao Wu’s invincibility without the time limit, or something OP’d like that.

          • If we are going with OP/funny/random, I will go with… grass Xiao Wu! An atonomous grass doll with all her abilities, though he uses his own power to use them. Very unlikely, very OP, and kinda funny. But seriously, whatever it ends up being is okay. Probably, it will be something tragic and reminiscent of Xiao Wu, in order to make Tang San cry whenever he uses them, for the feels. Seems like the kind of thing the author would do… But that’s okay, because she will come back! ( I refuse to think otherwise)

    • I just realized this could actualy be a godsend for him, he unlike others has dual spirits so he can max out the grass, get all hundred thousand year rings on the hammer. Give the rings on the grass to Xiao Wu, he would still be a title doualau with the hammer he could then refill the grass with all new high level rings and crush everyone.

      • If I understood it correctly, he wouldn’t be able to restore the blue silver emperor again. Removing the spirit rings will cripple his spirit rendering it impossible for cultivation.

        • Yeah, Er Ming said he’d lose his spirit. It shouldn’t really matter though. If he has 9 100,000 year spirit rings on his clear sky hammer he’ll basically be invincible anyway.

          • That is if he can handle getting 9 100,000 year rings. Both finding 9 of them and given his history now with Xiao Wu, his mother, Er Ming, and Da Ming calling him a brother, would Tang San have the heart to kill? Maybe if he can find 9 Spirit beasts with the mentality of a Man Faced Demon Spider…
            Tbh, I hope he wont be losing his spirit completely, it’s like a visible link to his mother, also I enjoy the diversity in tactic his 2 spirits brings into battle. Well, it’s Tang San we’re talking about, it wouldn’t surprise me if he didn’t lose it all.

            • Truth be told, I 100% expect this to actually benefit Tang San’s strength in some way, given the pattern in this novel that we’ve come to expect.

              But if this novel had a bittersweet ending and Tang San somehow ended up crippled but living together with Xiao Wu happily, I’d still be ok with it.

            • Kinda late since you made this comment on october but well i had a sudden idea. Didn’t that Blue Silver King spirit beast that awakened Tang San’s Blue Silver Emperor, say that only one BS Emperor can exist at the same time?? Supposing his mother ressurects, wouldn’t that break this rule since Tang San has it too? That way it kinda makes sense + it won’t matter that he lost the link with his mother since she’ll be alive. But yeah this is xianxia and Tang San is too op so it wouldn’t surprise me if he didn’t lose anything. Hell, would’t surprise me even if he benefited from this whole story xD

    • Pretty sure that he will still have his hammer, and that he will still be able to fill it up with all 100k rings. He will just go from OP as hell, to only super OP.

      • Even if he does lose the limb, it has been shown (by Xiao Wu just now) that you can recover the limb using a spirit bone… or was that just because she was being all Super-powered?

    • I bet he won’t even lose his BSE spirit, this is Xianxia after all, the MC only gets stronger never weaker ^^ There will probably be a bullshit explanation like BSE is immortal (like his mom) so instead of dissappearing, he just needs to restart cultivating from 0 (like his mom)… and this is no spoiler, I have absolutely no idea if this will happen, it’s just what came to my mind after I read the chap.

      • which only makes it worse, since Tang San wasn’t there for his mother’s incident he wasn’t as angry at them, especially since that his mother’s revival has accelerated.

        Now however Tang San’s totally out for blood, not even sure if Hu Liena will be spared or not, but before there was at least hope that the Spirit Hall would survive as long as they attempted to change their ways through Hu Liena, now however Tang San is probably gonna slaughter them regardless.

  10. Here my guess. Tang San is twin spirit so when he a title doulou he can actually only give up his blue silver grasss spirit ring and xiao wu spirit bone to revive her and they both r title doulou. Don’t forget tang San clear sky hammer can have all black and red spirit ring if he continue to lvl up and postpone getting spirit ring on it.

  11. Oh my god! shit just got real lol, so Tang san is going to have to give up his mother’s spirit. makes senses seeing as how there can only be one emperor at a time once mom comes back that will be her. Also seeing as how his 5th spirit ring grows along with him by the time he gets to the Title Doulou level I am predicting two 100,000 year spirit rings

  14. I’m so mad at Spirit Hall rn but I’m also wondering how long it will take to get Xiao Wu back. I remember, back in chapter 20, it said:
    “Several years later, when in the capacity of Shrek Seven Devil Boss Evil Eye White Tiger Dai Mubai already won success and recognition, was asked, among Shrek Seven Devils, who was actually the most terrible?
    Dai Mubai without the slightest hesitation answered, it was Soft Bones Douluo Xiao Wu, for a very simple reason. Because she was Thousand Hands Douluo Tang San’s trigger[1]. Directly provoking Tang San might not at all be serious, but if provoking Xiao Wu and arousing Tang San’s fury. Then, terrible matters would appear, Tang San in that case no longer was Thousand Hands Douluo, but was Thousand Hands Asura.”

  20. Question. On the final battle at the tournament, Xiai Wu was exposed as a spirit beast. Didn’t the Pontiff say she was the fish that got away? Or was it only a metaphor?

    • If I recall right there was a hunt for 100k beasts aimed at the forest when the titan ape and bull serpent were out. I guess she refered to Xiao Wu getting away there.

      Like

      • I’d imagine her mother was the one who got caught, and she got away. As in, the one who told her to only let one man brush her hair, and other stuff. Possibly not her actual mother but presumably a 100k spirit beast who was a mother figure to her, and was killed by Bibi Dong for her red ring perhaps. Whilst Xiao Wu narrowly escaped the hunt and made her way to hide out at their first school. All speculation btw.

  21. Truly heart wrenching… one chapter it’s like ‘yes. Yes. Yes.’ The next it’s like’WTF! No. No. No!’ And then it’s like ‘can I even continue? Oh gah, I need to know… but. Please. Oh, plese. Oh, please.’ And now I feel worn out. I had to walk away many times before I could finish this…I even took a peak at the future, though I tried desperatly to filter out as much as I could it was still a bit shocking. Did things really need to be colored? I mean, how can one not see too much? Beyond what I couldn’t help but see, all the information I gleamed is in this chapter so… yeah, I shouldn’t have opened the box. There is no hope.

    • If you were checking on the spoilers section it’s your own fault. Don’t forget though that those spoilers don’t cover until the end but about 20 or 30 chapters before it, so there is the potential for lot of things to happen.

    • I think the blue silver emperor won’t go back to being regular grass, because when Tang San awakened it it said that all his spirit rings changed from regular blue silver grass spirit rings into blue silver emperor spirit rings. So the emperor stuff is about the core spirit not the rings
