Douluo Dragon King: Nine Dragons Break the Abyss

Chapter 304: Punishing the Sin of Pride
After the meeting of the elders of Poseidon Pavilion ended, Yun Ming, the Pavilion Master of Poseidon Pavilion and the Lord of Shrek City, officially issued a resolution to strengthen the city's defense.

During this period, the operation of Shrek City was generally not affected. Citizens only noticed that the patrol teams of the city defense forces were on duty more frequently and the routine inspections at the checkpoints were much stricter.

But that was only the case for the past few days.

After a few days of tension and nothing happening, the old men who had been scoffing at this completely put away their tension.

How dare your small Holy Spirit Church challenge the might of the great Shrek?
Today’s patrol teams still go out on many occasions, and checkpoints still conduct inspections as usual, but the intensity has been relaxed a lot compared to before.

Time goes back to five hours ago.

A soul-guided bus speeding on the highway slowly slowed down in front of a convoy approaching a checkpoint.

In accordance with the procedures in the newly promulgated regulations on strengthening urban security management, all vehicles must stop and undergo strict inspection.

Shrek City is a large city with a permanent population of over five million, and its passenger flow is incalculable.

During the first few days of martial law, the highway checkpoint in Shrek City was greatly affected.

The strict inspection system has greatly reduced efficiency, and the checkpoints have to operate at a high intensity almost 24 hours a day to barely ensure their normal operation.

The workload suddenly became several times heavier, making the staff miserable.

But as the old guys relaxed their minds, and their superiors followed suit, the workload at the checkpoints dropped dramatically.

The "special channel" that was previously suspended has been tacitly opened in the past few days.

There are privileged classes everywhere, and this is especially true in a city like Shrek City, which has been established for nearly 20,000 years.

The passing of people leaves traces, and the passing of geese leaves their voices.

There were once countless powerful people stationed in the city. Although their descendants no longer have the glory of their ancestors, the grace of their ancestors still blesses their descendants.

And these people are the so-called "privileged class".

This special channel is a small manifestation of "privilege".

Special channels allow you to avoid queuing and even avoid paying fees.

You don't even have to get checked.

A young man in work uniform walked out of the checkpoint and pointed toward the special passage that was still closed towards the soul guide bus.

The soul guide bus reacted quickly and immediately turned out, quickly reversed its direction and headed towards the passage.

The staff member walked into the passage and turned on the equipment inside. The bus door opened, and a middle-aged man who looked ordinary-looking walked down from the top, came to the staff member, and handed over his ID card. past.

The staff member took the documents, opened them, and saw a check lying quietly between the documents.

The amount of the check is a very considerable number.

The staff member calmly took the check out of the document and returned it to the other party.

The driver took it naturally, and the staff walked into the operating room, opened the blocking equipment, and the iron fence slowly rose. The middle-aged man turned around and got on the bus, driving the soul guide bus quickly through and headed towards Shrek City.

The iron fence was put down again, and the staff member walked out naturally. The road was still impassable.

As there were more and more cars on the road, the soul guide bus slowed down and moved slowly in the traffic. There were more than a dozen people in the bus, all of whom seemed very silent. They were all wearing black uniforms and hoods on their faces, revealing only their noses and eyes. Because of their attire, the atmosphere inside the soul guide bus seemed a little eerie.

Only the driver, the middle-aged man who had gotten off the car earlier, seemed normal.

There is no doubt that all the people on this soul guide bus are from the Holy Spirit Church.

There are no more undercover agents from the Holy Spirit Church in this checkpoint.

The great purge ten years ago (Chapter 51) had a wide coverage, and many undercover agents hidden in the Holy Spirit Church were uncovered, including several undercover agents planted by the Holy Spirit Church at the Shrek City checkpoint.

Over the years, the Holy Spirit Church has also thought about infiltrating the checkpoints in Shrek City, but because there are too many big shots involved and too many important people are behind each person, the Holy Spirit Church cannot intervene at all.

The previous undercover agents were also bribed by the Holy Spirit Church with huge sums of money, and they didn't even know that they were serving the Holy Spirit Church.

In order to deliver the god-killing soul-guided shells into Shrek City, the method adopted by the Hades was very simple and crude - bribery.

The staff member who gave the green light just did the job for money.

As for the Shrek big shot behind him...he is actually just a distant relative of a certain minister.

It's not shabby to earn money.

The soul-guided bus continued to move forward and soon entered the inner city of Shrek City. Gradually, the inner city of Shrek City could be seen in the distance.

The bus did not go towards the inner city, but turned onto a wider street. After driving for a while, it slowly slowed down. On the side of the road, there was a building that looked like a hotel. The door slowly opened, and the bus The car turned in freely and disappeared behind the gate.

The last rays of sunset in the sky were almost sinking into the clouds, and the sun seemed to be about to emit its last ray of light of the day.

The beautiful sunset approaching dusk did not shine into the silent room.

The room was very spacious, with an arc-shaped dome that extended from the top of the dome to the surrounding walls, covered with large areas of magic patterns.

The entire room was thirty meters high and fifty meters in diameter, making it extremely wide. In the middle of the room, twelve people were sitting cross-legged in a circle, mumbling something.

There are soul rings rising around the bodies of these twelve people. If anyone can see them, they will be shocked to find that these twelve people all have eight soul rings rising from their bodies. An eight-ring Soul Douluo is already at the top in the world of soul masters. However, at this moment, so many Soul Douluos are together just to do one thing.

On the ground where they were sitting cross-legged, the magic patterns were more complicated, and what was even more terrifying was that there were patches of blood flowing around the magic patterns, which were ravines carved out of the magic patterns. Among these ravines, The blood that flows is constantly changing.

On the outside of the room, there were hundreds of people standing there. They were all dressed in black, with black hoods on their heads. Only their left hands were exposed, and the blood was from the wrist vein where their left hands were cut. It is formed by the continuous flow down.

A faint smell of blood filled the air, giving the entire room a strong sense of fear, but even this strong fluctuation of blood energy could not be transmitted to the outside at all.

In the center of the circle where the twelve Soul Douluos were sitting cross-legged, there was a dark green hexagram on the ground, with a strong bloody smell emanating from it. There was also something standing there. It was a three-meter-tall thing, dark green in color, with countless magic patterns on it, and it was shining.

Its top is in the shape of a pointed cone, extending downward like a pair of spread wings. The enormous energy around it is pouring into it like a vast ocean, and it is like a bottomless pit, absorbing the enormous energy and blood.

Whether it was the one hundred men in black in the outer circle, or the twelve Soul Douluo-level masters in the inner circle, their bodies were gradually shriveling due to the loss of energy, but in these two rooms, not a single sound was heard.

The dark green existence is none other than the God-Slayer that Devours Heaven and Earth.

When the light of the God-Slaying Heaven-Eating Earth-Devouring Sword shone to its climax, all the evil soul masters opened their bloodshot eyes. They looked up at the God-Slaying Heaven-Eating Earth-Devouring Sword on the dome, their eyes full of fanaticism.

All the evil soul masters used the last bit of their strength to keep muttering a few words:
"With our humble blood, we call upon the name of the God of Death, praying for the supreme great punishment for arrogance and establishing the Holy Spirit on its corpse..."

The Holy Spirit Church had no chance to deploy the giant energy-gathering soul guide array needed to activate the god-killing soul guide shells.

They can only resort to this most primitive sacrifice to satisfy the energy needs of launching the God-Slaying Heaven-Eating Earth-Devouring Machine.

When everyone's life force was lost, above the God-Slayer that Devours Heaven and Earth, a hint of scarlet flashed in the dark green light, and then all the green light converged.

It completed the final deployment.

In a wilderness not far from the jurisdiction of Shrek City, a number of launch devices capable of firing fixed-type soul-guided artillery shells have been deployed.

The Dark Emperor stood with his hands behind his back, his pale face showing no emotion. The martial law in Shrek City still had a great impact on the actions of the Holy Spirit Church.

The fixed-type soul-guided artillery shells that were supposed to be deployed in Shrek's outer city could only be deployed in this area because of the martial law.

Only a small number of them entered the outer city area of ​​Shrek City, and their destructive power could only cause riots at most.

"Lord Hades, it has been deployed and can be launched at any time."

A black-robed evil soul master came before the Hades and reported.

The Hades nodded: "Proceed as planned."

A hint of fanaticism flashed in the eyes of the black-robed evil soul master: "Yes!"

The Hades looked towards the direction of Shrek which was gradually shrouded in dusk, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Shrek, from today on, will no longer exist..."

He took a step forward and disappeared into the darkness.

In the villa of Qiangu Qitian.

Leng Yaozhu has brought Gu Yuena and Xu Xiaoyan here.

Xu Xiaoyan felt very nervous when she saw so many unfamiliar older sisters.

She was timid to begin with, and seeing that everyone had serious expressions, as if something big had happened, Xu Xiaoyan became even more frightened.

She hid behind Na'er and looked around timidly.

The only thing that could bring her a sense of security was the hand of Gu Yuena that she was holding.

It’s not Xu Xiaoyan’s fault. Among so many people, she was the only one who didn’t know what was going on.

Qiangu Qitian saw Xu Xiaoyan's nervousness. He smiled gently and comforted Xu Xiaoyan:

"Don't be afraid, Xiaoyan, this is the safest place in the world."

The fear in Xu Xiaoyan's eyes gradually dissipated with the comfort of Qiangu Qitian's words. The idiot would never lie to her.

Qiangu Qitian looked at the night outside the window. In the distance, the neon-lit Shrek City was still prosperous.

He whispered, "After tonight, the sun will rise as usual."

At this moment, several meteors streaked across the night sky, appearing extremely obvious against the pitch-black sky.

Qiangu Qitian's eyes trembled, and he realized that these so-called "meteors" were actually fixed-type soul-guided shells.

Judging from the fluctuations transmitted by the space elements, the power of each shell is at least that of a level seven fixed-type soul guide shell.

The moment the shell appeared, a violent fluctuation of soul power appeared in the room.

Qiangu Dieting came through the void with a serious expression. Seeing Qiangu Qitian and his grandsons' wives were there, he was slightly relieved.

"Xiaotian, Shrek City is going to undergo a big change tonight."

Qiangu Dieting knew that the attack was launched by the Holy Spirit Church. A large part of these fixed-type soul guide shells were obtained by the Holy Spirit Church from the federal army during the period of cooperation between the Spiritual Pagoda and the Holy Spirit Church.

Of course, Qiangu Dieting didn’t know the exact number.

Qiangu Qitian looked at his grandfather and said, "Grandpa, I know."

"Do you want me to take action?"

Qiangu Qitian shook his head: "Grandpa, the Spiritual Pagoda headquarters needs someone to take charge, just leave this to me."

Qiangu Dieting looked at Leng Yaozhu, Leng Yulai and Lan Ji beside Qiangu Qitian, and his heart was not yet completely at ease.

He knew that Qiangu Qitian already had three god-level beings around him.

There will definitely be no mistakes regarding the other party's safety.

"it is good."

The Spirit Pagoda had long ago severed its cooperation with the Holy Spirit Church. Who knows if this attack will target the Spirit Pagoda headquarters not far from Shrek City.

"Jingle Bell--"

Not long after Qiangu Dieting left, Qiangu Qitian's soul guide communication rang.

When Qiangu Qitian saw that it was Ling Zichen calling, he immediately connected the call.

"Hey."

On the other side, Ling Zichen's voice sounded a little lazy, obviously he had just woken up not long ago.

"How did you sleep?"

Qiangu Qitian started chatting with Ling Zichen.

Of course, he had already arrived at the balcony when he answered the call.

He leaned on the railing, looked at the direction where the "meteors" were sliding, and resisted the urge to take action.

Qiangu Qitian's magical power can only last for a quarter of an hour, so he must find the best opportunity to escape.

The previous ones were just minor incidents. The greatest casualties among civilians were the aftermath of the last god-killing soul-guided artillery shell.

“It must be very comfortable!”

Ling Zichen turned over on the soft big bed, exposing a large area of ​​white skin.

She looked at the ceiling, her eyes full of innocent love: "By the way, I said I would tell you where I am when I wake up."

"Where are you?"

"Big idiot, I'm at the Tang Sect headquarters in Shrek City. Are you surprised? Are you surprised? It's very close to your home. Do you want to..."

"boom!!!"

A huge explosion was heard from the communications channel. At the same time, the meteors in the sky were cut down by countless rays of light rising from the ground. The explosions and light caused by the collision were like huge fireworks, illuminating the sky above the entire Shrek City like daylight.

Communication is interrupted.

Qiangu Qitian gave a bitter smile, and then disappeared on the spot.

It’s really... a surprise.
