Douluo: Peerless Black Tortoise Moon God

Chapter 409 Moon's Demise, Shrek's End

"Mount, from this day forward, Shrek Academy will cease to exist! The Sea God Pavilion will cease to exist!"

The deep, eerie voice seemed to come from the deepest hell, bringing down a deathly darkness. Three level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannonballs fell to the earth like meteorites, crashing into the golden tree's light shield.

"Boom boom boom!"

A terrifying energy, powerful enough to flatten vast mountain ranges, began to spread, erupting like a volcano. Three enormous energy clouds filled the sky, engulfing everything in the heavens.

"Awooo~" The roar of the Light Dragon Soul deepened, and Beibei heard powerlessness and pain in it.

As the power of the three level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannonballs collided with the light of the golden tree sea god, the body of the Light Dragon Soul quickly became illusory, and the golden light shield soon showed flaws, with cracks spreading, like a pitted and overturned bowl.

This is not because the Golden Tree lacks energy. Having absorbed the energy of successive Sea God Pavilion Masters, the Golden Tree possesses demigod-level energy and would not be so easily breached by a few fixed-position soul-guided cannonballs.

But Moon, who was drawing upon energy, couldn't handle it! He couldn't withstand such a collision!
"Xi Shui, why do you do this? Shrek Academy has no deep-seated hatred for you, and it no longer has the ability to threaten you!"

Mu En cried out in a mournful voice, his dragon eyes fixed on the sky. He knew, of course, who the newcomer was.

After not seeing each other for over a hundred years, who would have thought that our reunion would be like this?
"So what if there's no deep-seated hatred? When my Holy Spirit Sect kills, do I have to consider whether the person is good or bad?!"

Ye Xishui's voice rolled through the sky, echoing throughout Shrek City. She spoke coldly, as if pronouncing the fate of Shrek City:

"Our Holy Spirit Cult has faced numerous crises and can only recover by swallowing up a top-tier power. Your Shrek Academy has a reputation that is far from being lived up to. If we don't kill you, who will we kill?!"

Before the words were even finished, more and more streaks of light-emitting cannonballs swept in from the distance, not heading towards Poseidon Lake, but towards the civilian district in Shrek City.

"Boom boom boom..."

The energy of the fixed-position soul-guided shells boiled over completely, and in an instant, countless buildings and residents were reduced to ashes. All that could be heard were countless cries of pain and screams, making it seem like a living hell.

This is the scene that evil spirit masters love the most. Under the cover of night, figures like vengeful ghosts laugh and roar in every direction of Shrek City, killing anyone they see and annihilating any spirit master they encounter. Shrek City, which has already suffered many blows, simply does not have enough power to fight against them.

Even before the Holy Spirit Cult launched its massive bombing of Shrek Academy, Ye Xishui had already personally led a group to wipe out the experts in Shrek City, including a Super Douluo.

Even if a Limit Douluo makes a move, a Super Douluo can only die silently.

"boom--!"

Just then, a dark light descended from behind the three energy clouds, striking the weakest point of the golden shield and quickly creating an opening.

"No~!"

Mu En's pupils widened as he screamed, but it was no use. The remaining energy from the three level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells spread in through the gap, like three savage beasts entering a granary, frantically devouring everything in their path.

This time, no one could protect the buildings and lives of Shrek Academy, except for life within the Seagod Lake area, which was protected by the new energy shield erected by Mu En. Everything outside the Seagod Lake—the registration office, the teaching buildings, the fighting arena, the student dormitories…

Everything was reduced to nothing by the power of the three level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells, quickly disappearing and evaporating as if it had never existed in this world.

Back on Poseidon Island, Bebe collapsed to the ground, his face deathly pale. This was a terrible nightmare; Shrek Academy, which had existed for ten thousand years, was facing its doomsday!
He looked blankly at Xuan Zu, who was struggling to stay afloat in the sky. He wanted to take Xuan Zu's place, but the injuries he had sustained in the previous battles constantly reminded him that he was still too weak and could do nothing.

Elder Zhuang propped up the Tree of Life, desperately trying to transmit life force to the Bright Dragon Soul, even burning his own soul power and life force in a futile attempt.

Mu En sighed in anguish, looked up at the distant sky, and said, "Ye Xishui, do you really want to wipe out all of Shrek Academy? I know some of your affairs. If you want revenge, you should go to the Sun Moon Empire."

After the words were spoken, Ye Xishui's cold voice rang out several breaths later, as if it came from the depths of hell:
"In the Douluo Continent, the strong are respected. You weak people who possess powerful treasures deserve to die! Don't blame me, blame your poor judgment in your previous life for cultivating successors who all originated from my Holy Spirit Cult!"

"Now that they have all fallen in the Sun and Moon Empire and are about to perish, my Holy Spirit Church's plans cannot go unfulfilled; this final step should naturally be taken by me!"

Hearing this, Mu En gave a few bitter laughs and shouted, "Where is Long Xiaoyao? You caused me so much suffering back then, and he doesn't dare to come see me today?"

In his youth, he was a master of romance, but he fell for Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao. He never wanted to mention such things before, but with Shrek Academy on the verge of collapse, he couldn't care less about saving face.

A sigh echoed from the sky, and Long Xiaoyao, his hair now completely white, appeared in Mu En's sight. His face was withered, his injuries still lingering, and he whispered:
"I encountered my greatest enemy in the Sun Moon Empire and was severely injured, from which I have yet to recover. I can no longer stop her; all I can do is fulfill my promise to Brother Mu and ensure that the flame of Shrek Academy remains burning, cough cough cough..."

"Even you are so badly injured, is the Sun Moon Empire truly invincible...?"

Mu En murmured, his heart filled with growing despair. The Holy Spirit Cult and the Sun Moon Empire were two terrifying enemies, both of whom possessed overwhelming power over Shrek Academy. Shrek Academy claimed to be neutral, but everyone knew what their true nature was.

The Holy Spirit Cult must be wiped out tonight. If the Sun Moon Empire also intervenes... none of the Shrek people in the original Three Kingdoms will survive.

Thinking of this, he lowered his gaze and glanced at Beibei, his eyes filled with a myriad of thoughts...

"Boom~!"

Another beam of death fell, striking the golden light shield of Poseidon Lake heavily and creating a large crack.

"We've talked about so many old, trivial matters; it's time to end this. Shrek Academy will be destroyed tonight!"

Ye Xishui coldly spoke, immediately collecting the massive number of dead souls from Shrek City to activate the Death Tower and launch the third offensive.

"Boom" "Boom" "Boom" "Boom"

After four consecutive attacks, the Sea God Lake's protective barrier finally gave way. Shattered under the combined might of Ye Xishui, a Limit Douluo and a peak level nine Soul Master, unleashing her five strongest strikes. The inner court disciples, teachers, and elders remaining on Sea God Island lost their last protective shield. Mu En's dragon soul was almost ephemeral, on the verge of disappearing. Having suffered severe injuries in his previous life, and further weakened by his battle with Du Busi, this latest blow was too much for him to bear. He would surely be annihilated after this battle!

At this moment, the light and shadows in the sky finally became clearer, and the Shrek people saw the true face of the murderer who had attacked them.

A towering demonic tower emanated a dark red, blood-red light, its surface seemingly flowing with blood, and its hideous faces hysterically uttered silent wails.

At the top of the Death Tower, surrounded by blood-red light, sat a figure shrouded in a dark red cloak, with nine incomprehensible and terrifying soul rings swirling around her.

Six black and three red, their murderous aura reaching the heavens!

Her aura merged with that of the Tower of Death, far surpassing even Long Xiaoyao's, so naturally he couldn't stop her.

Ye Xishui was very confident. She sent the Holy Spirit Cult members to Shrek City to enjoy a death feast, and dared to attack Shrek's last stronghold single-handedly. She did have the strength to do so, and she did not take Shrek Academy's last strength seriously.

As Mu En opened his mouth to speak, Long Xiaoyao flashed to his side, his body radiating a dark domain, and his pitch-black soul power trapped the last hope of Shrek City.

"Those who are afraid of death, come up here! I will grant you death!"

Ye Xishui spoke coldly, and with a slender white palm strike, endless blood light gathered into a torrent that poured down, engulfing Seagod Island.

"I will fight with you!"

At the top of the Sea God Pavilion, Elder Chen, the level 96 Vast Ocean Douluo and the third Holy Pillar of Sea God Island, unleashed his Ocean Martial Soul, his arms reaching for the sky, and dozens of meters of azure waves rising beneath his feet, facing the blood-red light.

The two collided in the next instant, and the bloody light of death overwhelmingly crushed the azure waves, engulfing them.

"Shuashua~"

Dozens of beams of soul light rose up as all the soul masters on Seagod Island, including Elder Zhuang and Bei Bei, made their final struggle.

Their total soul power exceeded Ye Xishui's, but it was useless. The power of the Limit Douluo was beyond their ability to resist. With a loud bang in the sky, Elder Chen's body was pierced through by the blood light.

"Your soul is not bad." Ye Xishui appeared in front of Old Chen like a ghost, reached out and grabbed his soul, then struck out with a palm.

With a "bang," Old Chen's body was torn to pieces, swallowed by the bloody light, and vanished into nothingness.

Old Zhuang cried out in grief, hoisted the Tree of Life Martial Soul, and smashed it towards Ye Xishui, doing everything he could to resist.

This time, Ye Xishui unusually refrained from killing, instead revealing a hint of appreciation: "Not bad, not bad, our sect needs a healing expert like you."

"Don't even think I'll surrender!" Old Zhuang roared, his eyes blazing red, his expression frantic.

"Whether you become an evil soul master or not is not up to you! Once you fall into my hands, you will only be a puppet for the rest of your life!" Ye Xishui snorted coldly, pressed down the Tree of Life with one palm, and shot out two beams of blood light from her pupils, which pierced through Elder Zhuang's heart meridian like lightning.

Suddenly, Elder Zhuang stopped moving and was thrown into the storage soul tool by Ye Xishui.

Several titled Douluo elders rushed forward, but Ye Xishui showed no mercy. She moved swiftly and appeared in front of each of them, effortlessly annihilating all the titled Douluo of the Sea God Pavilion with her fists and palms.

An inner court student leaped into the air, seeking revenge. Ye Xishui's eyes flickered, and she chuckled softly:
"There are several students with dark attributes, yin attributes, and even the instinct to devour others in Shrek Academy's inner court. I didn't expect that. They are truly promising talents for our sect."

With a light laugh, she wiped out all the inner court talents who did not meet the Holy Spirit Cult's recruitment requirements, except for Beibei, and took their soul bones. The remaining few surviving students were all swept up by a bloody wind and involuntarily flown into the sky.

Beibei stared in astonishment at all of this. The martial souls of those senior and junior students who were taken away were very special. There was a Dark Demon Fox, a Human-faced Demon Spider, and a Blood Shadow Demon Vine... Why wasn't he killed? Wasn't he a light attribute?
Ye Xishui glanced coldly at Bei Bei, snorted lightly, used her power to uproot the Golden Tree, turned around and left, disappearing from Bei Bei's sight. She flew south of Shrek City and once again brought down the light of the Death God Tower.

Sometime later, the dark domain that had trapped Mu En in the sky disappeared. Long Xiaoyao descended from the sky, patted Bei Bei on the shoulder, and forced a kind smile, saying:

"Child, from now on you will follow me in cultivation, how about it?"

Beibei looked up hesitantly and asked, "Where is my ancestor...?"

Long Xiaoyao looked pained and sighed, "He's gone. Xi Shui was too ruthless. Your ancestor's soul has completely collapsed."

Upon hearing this, Beibei was stunned for a long time, listening to the noisy sounds of bloodshed and screams, and he turned into a statue.

Finally, he knelt on the ground in a daze, kowtowed nine times towards the pit of the golden tree, bid farewell, and then stood up to ask Long Xiaoyao again:
"Where is your Blue Silver Saintess now? Is she still with the Holy Spirit Cult?"

Long Xiaoyao shook his head: "No, in the Sun Moon Empire, she was ambushed and captured alive during the attack on the Imperial Prison to rescue Shao Zhe; she should be alright for now."

Beibei nodded, clenched her fist, and said, "I'm going to rescue her. Teach me how to become stronger, any method will do..."

Long Xiaoyao's expression was complicated. He sighed and agreed, "I will go with you to rescue her. She's just a Soul Saint, not a very high target..."

"Shrek Academy, a place that lasted for millennia, has fallen in an instant. I once studied here myself. It's truly a pity, alas..."

Long Xiaoyao sighed deeply, turned around, bowed deeply to the pit to say goodbye, then patted his robes, grabbed Bei Bei's wrist, and flew into the air, out of Shrek City's airspace.

"Shrek is over, don't look back..."
