Douluo: Peerless Black Tortoise Moon God

Chapter 396 Under the Night, the War Saint

"Poseidon Island has reappeared and is currently reorganizing the Poseidon Alliance. It is suspected of colluding with the Holy Spirit Cult. Be careful."

He read the small words on the note aloud for a long time, his voice clear and crisp, his face showing surprise, his eyes gleaming with interest, and he said with a smile:

"I can't believe she'd even send you messages. When did you get involved with her?"

Xu Tianxi sat opposite, his hands on the table, his expression strange, and waved his hand, saying:
"Don't talk nonsense. Apart from letting her promote a civilian soul tool in the country and letting her and Prince Xueyu massacre nobles in the country, I have had no interaction with her in the past five years."

"I saved her once in the far north, probably to repay a favor, though I don't really need it."

This vague intelligence came from Vina, who, under the guise of visiting Xu Tianxi with Xu Jiujiu, inadvertently "left behind" the information, probably to guard against her "plastic sister" Xu Jiujiu.

Little did she know that Xu Tianxi's intelligence sources were not limited to her alone.

There was a note on the table with roughly the same content; it was brought by Ning Tian.

Ning Tian stated that the entire Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is ready to defect and can play the role of a trump card spy at any critical moment, stabbing Seagod Island in the back. The glory of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda can fall on the battle flag of the Sun Moon Empire at any time.

After a long pause, she cupped her face in her hands, pondered for a moment, and nodded:
“Indeed, it’s not necessary. My brother just told me that Seagod Island has reached a cooperation agreement with the Holy Spirit Cult. The Holy Spirit Cult will launch a surprise attack on the underground Soul Master Competition and the Mingdu Prison, creating widespread chaos. Seagod Island will then take advantage of the situation to attack the Imperial Palace and behead the prince.”

"The Shrek Academy's revenge force has also arrived. A large number of Soul Masters above the Soul Emperor level and more than 500 Shrek City Defense Army Soul Masters have been lurking near Mingdu under the arrangement of the Sea God Alliance."

The objectives are twofold: first, to assassinate the core genius of your Sun Moon Empire; and second, to destroy as much of your Heavenly Court's power as possible.

"I'm still their primary target, right?" Xu Tianxi asked, frowning.

"Of course, this time you split your forces and swept away all the original three kingdoms' teams, scaring them half to death. They can no longer tell themselves that the future is in their hands."

After a long pause, he nodded and teased, "Anyone with eyes can see that you and your group of people have unlimited potential in the future. Maybe in a few decades you will be a group of Super Douluo, and there is also hope for Limit Douluo. Of course they will not be at ease."

"If we can't compete with the future, we can only take action to nip it in the bud, or as my royal brother said, take you away from the Sun Moon Empire."

"The Heavenly Soul Empire has made offers to win you over, but they know they can't afford the price, so they decided to take you away first and then discuss other things. Seagod Island's attitude is ambiguous, and no one knows what they are thinking."

"It's alright. It's their business if the Sea God Alliance wants to attack the palace. There are plenty of people to deal with them. This time, I'll just focus on dealing with the evil soul masters of the Holy Spirit Cult."

Compared to the Sea God Alliance, Xu Tianxi was more wary of the evil soul masters of the Holy Spirit Cult, whose plan to break him out of prison was somewhat in line with his own thoughts.

It's time to settle some old scores; he told Shao Zhe that he had lived until now for this day.

After a long while, she tilted her head and chuckled softly, her beauty captivating. She said, "Let's work together this time. My support abilities are quite strong."

"it is good."

Xu Tianxi nodded in agreement. He sat cross-legged, his eyes flashing, and a phantom ball of light floated out, transforming into a figure exactly like himself.

With the power of heaven and earth absorbing his energy, he quickly materialized from nothingness; this was a spiritual clone created by Xu Tianxi.

"This clone will guard the Imperial Prison. Tonight, I will go to the underground Soul Master Competition Arena to oversee things. If the Imperial Prison discovers anything unusual, I will immediately return, and the Soul Master Competition Arena will be completely destroyed."

"At that time, it will be a signal for all parties to take action."

……

"boom!"

That night, a massive explosion rocked an open area on the outskirts of Mingdu, sending flames soaring into the sky and powerful, radiant figures flying out.

This is the surface of the Mingdu Underground Soul Master Tournament. The tournament is held not inside Mingdu City, but outside of it, and fully incorporates the excellent experience of the Mingde Hall demolition battle.

"Ahhh, you cunning Sun Moon Empire, you actually planted more fixed-position soul-guided shells than we did!"

A titled Douluo, a demonic soul master, shouted and flew out, his soul light carrying several surviving elites of the Holy Spirit Cult, his face full of resentment and confusion.

Jing Hongchen laughed heartily and said proudly, "Let me tell you, when we dealt with the Shrek gang's terrorist attack last time, Mingde Hall wasn't bombed by them, but by ourselves. We wanted to discard these bottles and jars in exchange for burying all the invading enemies!"

Ye Yulin unleashed a dazzling array of soul-guided devices, his hair and beard standing on end, and roared:

"Instead of waiting for you to cause trouble, let's blow it up ourselves! How does it feel to be blown up? A hundred evil soul masters rushed out just now, how come less than a quarter of them are gone now?"

The evil soul master leading the attack on the Soul Master competition was Vice Sect Leader Feng Ling. She glanced around at her subordinates; almost everyone was injured, and all the elites below the Soul Douluo level who had brought her were gone, including two Title Douluos. Seeing this, her eyes quickly turned bloodshot, and she roared, "Holy Spirit Sect members, prepare to break out!!!"

Jing Hongchen and Ye Yulin sneered, while Ye Guyi, Xiao Hongchen, Meng Hongchen, and others rubbed their hands together, donned their battle armor, and charged into the fray.

Liao Mengkai appeared one kilometer away with the Terrorclaw Soul Master Corps, forming a linked soul guidance array. Their armor was like a forest, resembling the Grim Reaper under the night sky.

"Gentlemen, many powerful figures have arrived at the Imperial Prison. I'll take my leave first."

The attackers from the Holy Spirit Cult were now trapped. Xu Tianxi bid farewell, flicked his sleeve, and sent two evil soul masters flying. His body disappeared amidst the spatial fluctuations.

……

Inside the Mingdu Prison, Zhongli Wu's maniacal laughter echoed in all directions. A dark mass of Holy Spirit Cult experts pressed down and engaged in a fierce battle with several level-nine Soul Masters guarding the prison, forcing the enemy into a retreat.

Xuanzi charged into the formation, and the dark, gluttonous light and shadow floated in the air, breaking through the defensive formation of the ninth-level soul master. The Holy Spirit Cult members arrived in front of the cell where Yan Shaozhe and the ten elders of the Haotian Sect were imprisoned.

"Welcome back, my good nephew. Your uncle has brought men to rescue you." Zhongli Wu smashed the prison chains with a palm and walked swaggering up to Yan Shaozhe, acknowledging his kinship on the battlefield.

Yan Shaozhe, who was lying unconscious in the damp corner, looked puzzled and retorted, "Nonsense! When did I, the dean, have any kinship with you evil soul masters?"

"It's normal that you don't believe me. I didn't believe it either when I first found out. Mother kept it too well hidden. You'll know once you and Uncle meet her, hehehe..."

Zhongli Wu stepped forward, grabbed Yan Shaozhe by the collar, and started to walk out. Yan Shaozhe tried to struggle, but he couldn't resist at all.

"Good nephew, look, isn't Elder Xuan's martial soul much stronger than before? This is all thanks to Mother, who activated the deepest level of his Taotie bloodline. He's about to recover to the Super Douluo realm."

While arrogantly escaping from prison, Zhong Liwu proudly introduced Yan Shaozhe to old acquaintances, helping him get used to the atmosphere of the new environment.

Inside the imperial prison, the Dark Gluttonous Mystic Prince's eyes were deep and unfathomable. His attacks were like thunderbolts, with immense force. His power was so overwhelming that even a level nine Soul Master dared not confront him directly.

Like a battlefield machine that knows no pain and no retreat, he joined forces with Zhang Peng to charge into the enemy ranks, breaking through the formation of the ninth-level Soul Master. He roared to the sky, absorbing and exhaling a massive amount of heaven and earth energy, his evil aura reaching the heavens and the earth, just like a demon god.

Behind him, Tang Ya, Yan Feng, and others were prominently displayed, charging into battle alongside him. The dark blue silver grass resembled giant serpentine vines, and the icy bone dragon breathed out, chilling to the bone.

Yan Shaozhe opened his mouth wide, wanting to say something, but felt his mind was completely blank.

So many new things have happened that he is bewildered and at a loss. Is he, the dignified Dean of Shrek Academy, going to be dragged back by the despicable evil spirit masters and become one of them?

Just then, a huge explosion came from afar. Zhongli Wu's eyes lit up when he heard the sound, and he urged, "Elder Xuan, Zhang Peng, stop playing with them. Quickly kill a few people and prepare to retreat."

"it is good!"

Zhang Peng agreed, unleashing his Martial Soul True Form, transforming into a gigantic dark scorpion tiger, and lunging with a tiger's roar.

Xuanzi transformed into a colossal Taotie beast, its ox bloodline almost completely suppressed. It raised its massive foot, ready to stomp down fiercely.

However, something unexpected happened.

At the heart of the fierce battle, swirling black holes suddenly rose up, blocking the path of the many Soul Masters.

The next moment, Xuanzi and Zhang Peng, two top experts, were sent flying backward, smashing through a large number of other experts along the way.

The Holy Spirit Cult expert suddenly staggered, a stark contrast to his previous menacing appearance.

Zhongli Wu's expression suddenly tightened as he stared intently at the black hole in space and shouted, "Who goes there!"

"The one who wants you dead."

A thunderous sound came from all directions, and a second bright, full moon appeared under the dark night sky.

Beneath the lone, bright moon, stood a tall, slender figure, overlooking the battlefield.

"Since you're here, make the best of it. You've all come from afar, so please forgive me for any shortcomings in my hospitality."

Xu Tianxi glanced around, the Purple Dragon Sword in his hand hummed and vibrated, thousands of purple-black lightning bolts fell down, and a dragon's roar could be heard as it soared down from the sky.

Zhongli Wu's pupils dilated in surprise, and he asked in astonishment, "How could it be you?"
