Douluo Jueshi: Picking up Firefly at the Beginning

Orange also hopes that Meteor and Firefly will win this competition, after all, the Molten Knights will be under her command as the commander-in-chief of the three armies in the future.

If the Holy Spirit Cult were to take control of the Molten Knights, her orders would likely be difficult to carry out effectively.

If this happens, her situation in the army will become extremely difficult. After all, if she can't even command a small Molten Knights Order, how can she command the entire army?
"No problem." Meteor smiled confidently, her tone full of certainty.

Meteor had previously gathered a lot of information about the two Holy Maidens of the Holy Spirit Cult. Tang Ya, the Blue Silver Holy Maiden, was a Soul Saint-level evil Soul Master who caused Ma Hongjun's death in the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition.

In Meteor's opinion, although Tang Ya has some strength, she is not enough to pose a great threat. Moreover, she is competing for the position of vice leader, while her opponent is Liu Ying. There is even less to worry about; Liu Ying will not lose.

As for his own opponent, it was the Fire Phoenix Saintess Ma Xiaotao. Ma Xiaotao was once the captain of the Shrek Academy team. Compared with when she competed against their Sun Moon team, she has now grown into a powerful Soul Master at the Soul Douluo level, and her martial soul has evolved into the rare ultimate fire attribute.

According to intelligence, Ma Xiaotao's combat strength is astonishing, and she even has the ability to compete with a Title Douluo.

However, even when facing such a powerful opponent, Meteor showed no fear. Now, as a high-level Soul Saint, he wielded fire power far beyond ordinary extreme fire. His combat strength was beyond the imagination of ordinary people, so how could he be afraid of Ma Xiaotao?

After sending the orange away, Meteor stopped thinking about it. In his opinion, it was just a competition, nothing serious. There was no need to spend too much energy on it or make any special preparations.

At this moment, his thoughts were more focused on the Sky Island he had been longing for. Under the arrangement of Gu Yuena and Xue Nu, the soul beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest and the far north took action to collect various resources.

With the combined efforts and tireless work of Jing Hongchen and other level-nine soul masters, who overcame countless hardships, the Sky Island he had dreamed of was finally completed. Now, only the crucial step of taking it into the air remained.

Before long, Meteor led all the members of the Nevernight Palace to a vast forest dozens of kilometers away from Mingdu.

This is the place where Sky Island was built. At this moment, Jing Hongchen and Xuan Ziwen, who has successfully advanced to the ninth level of Soul Master, are already waiting here.

When the people of the Everlasting Palace saw the enormous archipelago before them, they were all stunned.

Although they had heard that their Palace of Eternal Night was building an unprecedented floating island, the sheer scale of the magnificent structure still exceeded their expectations.

"Can this really fly? Will we all live up there from now on?" Feng Xiaotian couldn't help but reach out and pinch his arm hard. The clear pain in his hand confirmed that he was not dreaming.

"How magnificent! How much money must this have cost?" Shui Yue'er clung tightly to her sister Shui Bing'er's arm, her eyes wide and her cherry-like mouth agape in an "O" shape. She even counted on her fingers with great seriousness, trying to estimate how much wealth it would take to build such a magnificent and flying structure.

This trip, to witness the splendor of Skye Island firsthand, was something they had been eagerly anticipating.

What appeared before the people of the Palace of Eternal Night was a huge building with a unique shape. Its main body was in the shape of an inverted triangle, and from a distance, it looked like a magnificent island.

The building's surface is densely covered with a layer of vibrant blue-silver vines, upon which soul-guiding runes shimmer with a mysterious light. Under the sunlight, these lights intertwine and refract, emitting a warm and enchanting halo like jade, dreamlike and breathtakingly beautiful.

At the top of the island, a huge dark gold triangular building with a diameter of over a hundred meters floats.

The building shone brightly, like a burning dark golden sun, exuding an awe-inspiring aura.

It is the Gravity Phase Tower, a level-nine soul tool meticulously crafted with the Titan Ape soul bone as its core.

However, what is amazing is that there is not only one such gravity phase tower; another gravity phase tower is embedded at the bottom of the island.

This gravity phase tower was made using the soul bones left behind by the Titans. Its effects are even more powerful than the one at the top, and its soul tool level is infinitely close to level ten. It seems that it may break through the limit at any time and be promoted to a level ten soul tool, exuding a powerful aura that is hard to ignore.

Beyond the main island, twelve incredibly thick soul-guiding chains extend from the bottom of the island.

These chains are made entirely of meteorite steel, a rare metal extracted from meteorites by the Sun and Moon Empire at great expense.

Its sturdiness is beyond imagination. Even if a powerful Title Douluo were to go all out, it would be no easy task to destroy it. It can be called the top-level soul guide metal.

The value of these twelve meteorite steel chains alone is immeasurable. Each chain is so precious that it could buy a level nine soul tool, which speaks volumes.

At the end of each meteorite steel chain is firmly connected to a sub-island. These chains are meticulously engraved with complex and exquisite soul-guiding array patterns, which shimmer with silver light under the sunlight.

The twelve smaller islands are arranged in a neat ring, surrounding the main island like stars around the moon.

The base of each island is forged from the scales of the Hell Dragon King and deep-sea silver, making it incredibly sturdy and seemingly able to withstand any powerful attack, giving people a sense of indestructible security.

Moreover, each sub-island is equipped with various advanced high-level soul-guided cannons. These soul-guided cannons are neatly arranged, with their dark muzzles pointing in all directions, as if they are always on guard against any possible threats, protecting the main island so tightly that one can feel a strong sense of security.

Soon, Xuan Ziwen led Liu Xing and the others into the interior of Sky Island. What came into view first was a magnificent twelve-tiered ancient-style palace.

These palaces are scattered in a well-organized manner, and each palace corresponds to a cavalryman of the Palace That Never Sleeps.

The palace located at the very core and rearmost point is the incomparably noble Queen's Palace, the exclusive palace of Liu Ying, the Queen of the Never-Sleeping Palace, and only a select few are qualified to enter. (End of Chapter)
