Seven Treasure Clan's crisis: Opening

In Spirit Hall's territory, inside one of the most important areas, the Supreme Pontiff Palace. A woman exited to the main balcony. The woman seemed to be 30 years old with long blonde hair and red ruthless eyes, a cold air surrounding her. She was wearing ceremonial white robes with black linings, with a crown over her head and a scepter full of jewelry in her hand.

Outside under her vision stood a group of soldiers, all of them prepared for a battle. "It's time to show Spirit Hall might. Let the world learn who is the owner of the continent!" this caused cheers from the soldiers "Let's show what is the destiny of the ones that face against us. Start the attack to Heaven Dou's upper clans!" The woman ordered the soldiers marching away.

In another Spirit Hall's characteristic areas, the Douluo Palace, stood a man seemed to be in his late thirties, early forties. He had white straight long hair and a mask that covered half of his face.

He looked at the sky "It's time. Start the attack" He ordered turning to a man kneeling, this one was wearing white robes with a hood that hid all his features, being unable to see his look.

"Yes! Your holiness" the white-robed man answered disappearing from the place.

In Heaven Dou's territory, near Star Duo Forest there were multiple majestic buildings, all of them exuding an air of richness and power, at the center of them stood a big mansion. This was the inner quarters of one of the strongest and the richest clan of all Heaven Dou Empire, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Clan.

On one of the clan's door, a group of more than 50 hooded people with black capes could be seen. The door opened like receiving this group. As the group entered, some corpses were lying around, all of them wearing the badge of the Seven Treasure Clan.

The hooded group entered the clan's headquarters and moved stealthily. They efficiently moved around, silently killing in a surprise and swift attack any clan member that they found. Their movements were so precise and coordinated, always finding the perfect blind spot, evading the scouts, that seemed to have complete knowledge about the clan's member movements.

On another side, it could be seen as a clan member of the Seven Treasure Clan wearing white robes running towards the residential area. He was in a hurry due to having forgotten his own badge, showing his position as a scout of the clan. Once his companions informed him, he let his companions continue the patrol while he quickly returned to his quarters, trying to take the badge, before any high ranking found him.

In his way, the white-robed man realized that it was too quiet. Suddenly, he listened to a low cry that was quickly subdued. His face turned serious, a spirit of some kind of dog appeared behind him, his nose got longer and the triangular dog's ears appeared on top of his head. Then, he dashed towards the cry, only to find a black hooded person carrying the corpse of a clan member.

The man showed his training and cold thinking, even it wasn't enough to not forget his badge, in the important situation, was completely alert. He took some firework from his pocket before he could even activate a knife penetrated his back, piercing his heart. The white-robed man used his last strength before falling dead activating the firework that shot to the sky. The firework exploded showing the emblem of the clan in black colors, a Seven Treasure Pagoda.

After 10 seconds like reacting to the firework, 3 more black colored fireworks exploded in the sky, followed by a bigger red one that exploded filling all the clan's sky. This was a communication between the clan members, showing that there's danger and once corroborated a red signal made know that the clan was in danger, ordering all clan members to return to the headquarters immediately to defend.

"Tch!" One of the hooded people clicked his tongue "We are found" He turned to his companions "There's no need to hide anymore. Unleash all your power and slaughter all the people on your way. The Seven Treasure Clan shall perish today!"

The hooded group nodded and took off their capes and around them appeared spirit rings, all of them have between 5 or 7 spirit rings, ideal configuration. They charged different ways.

The fireworks have different reactions. The Seven Treasure clan members started moving, changing their usual patrols, trying to find the intruders. Not only the Seven Treasure Clan reacted to it. From all around the clan a big army, all of them wearing clothes that identified them as people of Spirit Hall. They charged to the clan, without any tactic or stealth the charged with full power.

There were a lot of initial casualties but thanks to the quick intervention they could reduce it at a minimum. It didn't take much time for the Seven Treasure Clan to organize their army, clashing with the enemies one. All the members equipped with strange crossbows.

The first shot of the crossbows created may casualties in Spirit Hall's side, however, they acted quickly preventing another wave crashing to the enemy army creating a battlefield full of shout and cries, where every second someone died.

"Spirit Hall, you went too far!" A powerful voice resounded to all the battlefield. People were attracted to the voice and couldn't help to stop fighting and turning to it.

Flying at the sky stood a white-robed old man with neatly combed silver hair. People instantly recognized him, the Seven Treasure's members shouting "Elder Sword!" in praise.

Chen Xin, also known as Sword Douluo stood flying, his face painted in fury. He lifted his right arm and lifted his index finger. From the battlefield hundreds of mini sword ascended to the sky, this was the previous arrows shot by the crossbows that had a form of a sword, permitting Chen Xin to control them.

Sword Douluo made a swift movement downwards and all the little sword started falling like rain to Spirit Hall's army. Just as it was about to hit, the earth under them was lifted over them creating an earth shield that stopped the projectiles.

A man jumped over the earth's shield. He had a spiky silver hair and a characteristic scar traversing his left eye, the only clothing that he wore was a short black pant. On his hand there was a long lance in the form of a snake, this lance surrounded by 9 spirit rings, 2 yellows, 3 purple, and 4 black, showing that he was a titled douluo. In fact, he was She Long, Snake Lance Douluo with a rank at 96, an elder of Spirit Hall.

Sword Douluo looked down a She Long "Did you think that you have the necessary to be my rival?" 9 rings appeared around him, 2 yellows, 2 purple, and 5 blacks, followed by a golden glow pressuring She Long with the strength of a 97 rank titled douluo. She Long flinched a little but quickly recomposed.

Sword Douluo moved his arms guiding the little swords. This time focusing them in one place and forming a giant sword. He swung like if an air sword was in his hand and the giant sword slashed to She Long.

She Long was unable to move by its mere pressure, however, he didn't need to move. "My role is only to protect the army," said smiling just as a hooded person appeared in front of She Long, he has a curved posture and wore a hooded white cape with golden patterns. The hooded person lifted his right hand, the giant sword clashing to it was abruptly stopped. A shock wave was emitted by the hooded man destroying the giant sword formation, little sword dispersing away, losing Sword Douluo influence.

"Today is the day of your death" a powerful aura appeared around the hooded person opening the hood showing an old man with short white hair and a long white beard. 9 Rings started appearing around him, 2 yellows, 2 purples, 4 blacks, and a red one. A black ring shined "<6th spirit skill: Golden Roar> Graaaaaaa!" The old man shouted and a powerful blast of golden energy was shot.

Detecting the powerful attack, Sword Douluo's rings shined "<7th spirit skill: Seven Kill Sword Avatar>" 7 swords appearing around him "<8th spirit skill: Sword Formation: Mountain Shift>" the 7 swords moved in front of Sword Douluo and started running in circles, creating a tornado.

The golden blast stroke the sword tornado, pushing Sword Douluo who used even more spirit energy, the sword spinning even faster finally stopping the blast, not without any injury, a trail of blood fell from his mouth showing signs of an internal injury.

"Not bad," the old man said and straighten his posture, a Golden Cocodrile spirit appeared on his back and golden scales started creating an armor around him, his nails started lengthening become long claws, his teeth becoming sharper and spiky. His aura exploded making it difficult for most of the people to even stand, showing the power of a rank 98 douluo.
