Douluo: Peerless Black Tortoise Moon God

Chapter 413 Returning to the Continent, Meeting the Evil Emperor in the Demon Forest
On the way back to the mainland, the Great Black Dragon Emperor Tian flew through the air, while Xu Tianxi, dressed in a purple robe that fluttered in the wind, closed his eyes in deep thought, sorting out the messages that had been sent back from the mainland since he left.

"Shrek Academy has been destroyed. On the surface, the three great empires appear calm, but undercurrents are surging. The Heavenly Soul Empire suspects that the Sun Moon Empire is behind this, either in alliance with or supporting the Holy Spirit Cult. The Body Sect has announced a closure of its mountains, it seems they are truly afraid..."

"Tang Ya, who was imprisoned, was rescued by a mysterious expert a few months ago. Xuanzu believes that it was done by Long Xiaoyao who infiltrated the prison. They are quite interested in this Blue Silver Saintess."

"In the Star Luo Empire, Xu Jiawei publicly announced that Jiu Jiu would be removed from the clan genealogy, causing quite a stir. I need to comfort her when I get back..."

Shrek City, with its millennia-long heritage, was destroyed by a massive firework 10,000 years ahead of schedule, leaving more than three million people dead without a trace. It was arguably the most devastating tragedy in the history of Douluo Continent, causing a sensation throughout the entire continent.

The Heavenly Soul Empire was the most frightened because Shrek City was located within its territory. They had already relocated all the residents of dozens of towns adjacent to Shrek City, fearing that these people would suffer.

This is too brutal and vicious. The brutality of this tragedy has surpassed that of Dugu Bo's massacre of Jialing Pass ten thousand years ago. It can be called the first tragedy since the Douluo Continent entered the imperial era, because Shrek City is a top-level main city that can be compared with the capitals of the three great empires, while Jialing Pass is just a military fortress.

However, in a sense, it wasn't without its benefits. Many people believed that this was a form of retaliation by the Sun Moon Empire for the repeated attacks by Shrek Academy. Under such circumstances, those who dared to go to pay their respects were all true Shrek alumni. The Sun Moon Empire's spies had already noted down all these families for later processing.

In the direction of the Star Luo Empire, Xu Jiawei breathed a sigh of relief only after confirming through repeated questioning that it was not the work of the Sun Moon Empire, but only the Holy Spirit Cult. Then he was greatly alarmed, fearing that those madmen of the Holy Spirit Cult would come to Star Luo City again and cause trouble, which would be unbearable for anyone.

This concern is not without merit. After careful consideration, the Heavenly Court decided to send the original members of the Xuanming Sect to Xingluo City to secretly oversee operations and fully guarantee the safety of their allies.

Shrek City has already been slaughtered. If Star Luo City is also slaughtered, no one knows how much the Holy Spirit Cult's power will expand. That would be a disaster for the entire continent.

Xu Jiawei had once wanted the Xuanming Sect to be the guardian sect of the Star Luo Empire, and now it has inexplicably come to fruition.

The Sun Moon Empire has also strengthened its vigilance across the board. All kinds of low-level soul-guided weapons are being produced in the assembly line processing plant improved by Xu Tianxi and quickly deployed to security forces in various places. The three Guardian Hands and eight soul-guided legions have been equipped with rapid action equipment and are ready to confront the Holy Spirit Cult at any time.

In terms of hatred, Shrek Academy and the Holy Spirit Cult are not too deeply entrenched; it is the Sun Moon Empire, which has turned against the Holy Spirit Cult, that is at the forefront!
In the battle of Mingdu, Zhongli Wu, the current leader of the Holy Spirit Sect, and Feng Ling, the deputy leader, both perished. The former was killed by the Lord of Heaven, while the latter was killed by Xiao Hongchen, the Grand Steward of Heaven, Meng Hongchen, the First Spokesperson of Heaven, and Ye Guyi, the Image Ambassador. Their souls were scattered, and even their bodies were destroyed by the holy light of angels.

Below them, the number of fallen and captured evil soul masters is even greater. Ye Guyi not only destroyed Feng Ling, but also two other titled Douluo. He has been in seclusion ever since, attempting to break through to the titled Douluo level.

Meanwhile, another angel soul master, Yu Mengdi, was not hindered by the second soul core and had already soared to the level of proving his Dao and being granted a title. His angel martial soul grew six wings, and his cultivation was directly catching up with Luan Feng, the leader of the Fire Phoenix Soul Master Group, and he was promoted to the vice leader of the Fire Phoenix Soul Master Group.

It is foreseeable that if they continue to cultivate at this speed, the Angel Family will soon welcome a Super Douluo.

Judging from what these two women gained, one can imagine how many powerful figures of the Holy Spirit Cult died in the Sun Moon Empire.

At this moment, Gu Yuena noticed that Xu Tianxi remained silent, so she patted him and waved the meatball, saying, "What are you thinking about?"

Xu Tianxi glanced at her and said calmly, "I'm wondering when the mainland will be completely peaceful. The Holy Spirit Cult is causing trouble, and the world is in turmoil."

It took him about three months from the time he destroyed the Sea God family to the time Shrek Academy was destroyed. Then he spent another year cultivating, and now it has been a year and three months, and autumn is approaching on the mainland.

The execution of Yan Shaozhe and Song Yunzhi is approaching, and there will be more excitement then. I wonder if any unwelcome guests will come.

"Don't overthink it. No one on the mainland can rival us. If there's any trouble, we'll just sweep it all away."

Gu Zhaoqiu, who was lying on Di Tian's back admiring the scenery, heard Xu Tianxi's worried expression, smiled gently, got up, rubbed his temples with her delicate hands, hugged him from behind, and whispered in his ear:
"Haven't been back to the mainland in a long time, do you miss them a lot?"

Xu Tianxi relaxed and nodded, saying, "Yes, I miss them. There are some things I have to do, and some troubles I have to deal with."

"This time, I even thought that once I broke through to the Title Realm, I would go to the Haotian Sect to deal with those two last troubles. If I was lucky, I could finish it off in one fell swoop."

Niu Tian and Titan of the Haotian Sect have always been a hidden danger. These two soul beasts are suppressed in this era, but ten thousand years later they will be near-invincible quasi-god level powerhouses below true gods. Killing them while they are still weak would be the best outcome. "No matter what you do, I will be with you..." Gu Zhaoqiu whispered, then suddenly said:
"For example... you cultivate together with that Princess Xingluo, her body isn't very strong, is it?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Tianxi's slightly closed eyes suddenly brightened, and he changed the subject, saying:

"Upon returning to the mainland, cultivation should be our top priority. Let's head straight to the Demon Forest; I need to speak with the Evil Emperor."

"Hmm, that's good." Gu Zhaoqiu's eyes narrowed slightly, a sly smile playing on her lips, like a triumphant little fox.

Di Tian suddenly spoke up, coughing as he said, "Old Evil Eye of the Demon Forest is an old acquaintance of mine. That guy's spiritual power level is probably not as high as yours, Mountain Dragon King, but we still can't be too careful about his methods."

"I must admit, this old fellow has a very high level of comprehension, much smarter than Xiong Jun. His clan is the most powerful spiritual race, and his self-created methods, whether it be the Light of Time and Space or the Light of Destruction, are not to be underestimated..."

As he prepared to confront his old adversary, Di Tian's flight speed increased considerably. Utilizing spatial power, he moved with remarkable stability, and the Demon Forest soon came into view.

Xu Tianxi released his spiritual power to sense along the way and quickly found the target in the deepest part.

"Back then, my first spirit ring came from your descendant, and now I'm going to take my ninth spirit ring from you. What a coincidence..." Xu Tianxi sighed softly.

Upon entering the lush and verdant airspace of the Demon Forest, Emperor Tianlao unceremoniously issued a call, waking up the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler who was still in seclusion.

"Old Evil Eye, an old friend has come here, why don't you come out to greet me?"

Di Tian transmitted his voice using the power of space, releasing his immense aura without any concealment. The vast number of soul beasts in the Demon Forest were paralyzed by this, not daring to confront the number one ferocious beast on the continent, whose cultivation was still above that of the Evil Emperor.

Soon, from the deepest part of the Demon Forest, a powerful spiritual energy surge rose, soaring into the heavens and rising into the sky.

Xu Tianxi stared intently and saw that this evil emperor was a giant eye with a body size of over 300 meters, with huge tentacles. There were a total of 81 tentacles around the terrifying giant eye's body, each of which was over 500 meters long.

Judging by its size alone, it seems even more frightening than Di Tian, ​​especially its tentacles, which are very unfriendly to people with trypophobia.

"Di Tian, ​​you've disturbed my seclusion, are you here to fight me? Others may fear you, but I won't!"

The evil emperor's thoughts surged and raged. Although they were not divine consciousness, they were not far off, and could be considered the pinnacle of demigods. No wonder he was able to injure Di Tian.

Xu Tianxi and the other two stood up. Di Tian transformed back into human form from his dragon form, shook his head leisurely, and said:
"No, no, no, I'm not here to fight you. I'm here to introduce someone and discuss cooperation with you. You should have heard of his reputation."

The Evil Emperor blinked: "Who?"

Di Tian smiled slightly and gestured for Xu Tianxi to stand next to him. He solemnly introduced, "This is the only remaining top genius of our Dragon Clan's Mountain Dragon lineage. His bloodline level is on par with mine, and he is also the current patriarch of the Mountain Dragon Clan."

"He also has a human identity, namely the renowned Heavenly Court Lord of the Sun Moon Empire in recent years. He wants to cooperate with you and your Demon Forest. What do you think?"

Upon hearing this, the Evil Emperor's gaze fell upon Xu Tianxi, and he quickly reacted, asking in surprise, "How could your spiritual power have reached this level? Even Di Tian is probably..."

Xu Tianxi smiled calmly, activated his Moon God Martial Soul, and a boundless bright moon rose behind him, lowering half of the night sky. He stretched out his hand and said, "I only managed to break through to the Divine Origin Realm by chance. Would the Evil Emperor be willing to cooperate with me and go to the God Realm together?"
