Chapter 450 The Dawn of Light
Just then, a mournful howl filled with endless grief and madness suddenly rose from the depths of the palace ruins!

"what--!!"

The venom and murderous intent contained in that howl almost tore the night sky apart.

Immediately afterwards, a figure with his hair and beard standing on end and exuding a violent surge of soul power shot out from below like a cannonball. It was none other than Kong Deming, the chief honorary master of the Imperial Hall of the Sun Moon Empire and a level nine soul master!
At this moment, Kong Deming was nowhere to be seen, lacking even a trace of the composure and dignity he usually possessed as the chief retainer.

His clothes were tattered and covered in dust and blood. His old face was twisted and deformed with extreme anger, and his eyes were bloodshot and looked as if they were about to bleed.

He rushed into the epicenter of the explosion immediately to try to rescue survivors.

However, the result made him furious!
The emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire is dead beyond dead, not even a complete corpse was left behind!
The other princes and concubines living in the palace, as well as a large number of palace guards and eunuchs, were all killed in this sudden disaster!

He tried his best, but only managed to rescue Crown Prince Xu Tianran from the ruins of a collapsed palace.

Xu Tianran, though disabled in both legs and confined to a wheelchair, was once the crown prince of the empire, full of vigor and ambition. But now, this prince, who possessed cultivation levels approaching those of a titled Douluo and had activated several powerful defensive soul tools on his body the instant the explosion occurred, was on the verge of death.

His body was charred black, his clothes long since reduced to ashes, every inch of his exposed skin unscathed, his left arm missing, and his right leg twisted in a bizarre way, clearly his bones shattered. If it weren't for the faint rise and fall of his chest, a sign that he was still breathing, no one would have been able to reconcile this mangled, charred body with that of the former crown prince. Even with Kong Deming's methods, he could only barely keep him alive; whether he would survive was still uncertain.

Such a devastating loss drove Kong Deming, an old retainer who had dedicated his life to the empire, completely insane!
"You won't die from poison! Snow Empress! I'll fight you to the death!"

Kong Deming roared, giving Long Xiaoyao no chance to speak again. He slammed his hands together in front of his chest, unleashing his full soul power. Nine soul rings suddenly rose from beneath his feet, several of them dazzling ten-thousand-year-old black soul rings!

"Silver Moon Divine Light Shield!"

With a furious roar, he activated his most powerful defensive and offensive soul skills simultaneously, instantly enveloping him in a silvery shield as bright as moonlight. Immediately afterward, his martial soul, "Silver Moon," appeared behind him—a massive silver crescent moon radiating a chilling light.

"Om-!"

Countless dazzling silver rays of light shot out from the silver moon like a torrential rain, their target the Poison Undying in mid-air! Each silver ray contained terrifying cutting and purifying power, and wherever it passed, even the air shrieked under the strain.

He had gone mad, and was determined to tear the enemy in front of him to pieces!
Upon seeing this, Long Xiaoyao snorted coldly, a hint of displeasure flashing in his deep dragon eyes.

He naturally understood Kong Deming's feelings at this moment, but as a Limit Douluo, he knew even more clearly how important it was to remain calm in this situation.

"The battlefield is in the sky!"

He let out a low shout, his figure blurred, and he transformed into a black streak of light, soaring straight into the heavens.

Clearly, he still had to abide by that ancient rule, shifting the battlefield to the high altitude to avoid affecting the already chaotic Ming capital below.

Xue Di's cold gaze lingered for a moment on the charred body below, then she transformed into a white streak without hesitation, following Long Xiaoyao away, leaving a long white trail in the air with her icy aura.

Poison Undying chuckled, his dark green figure soaring into the sky, laughing wildly, "Liao Kong, you want to fight me to the death? I'll play along to the end!" In an instant, the three top experts of the era disappeared into the low sky and appeared atop the clouds ten thousand meters above.

"Roar--!"

A deafening dragon roar echoed through the sky.

Long Xiaoyao's martial soul, "Dark Holy Dragon," suddenly possessed him, and in an instant, he transformed into a gigantic black dragon over a hundred meters long! The jet-black dragon scales shimmered with a metallic luster, and the ferocious dragon head and the dragon eyes burning with dark red flames exuded a terrifying pressure that could destroy the world.

The giant dragon swung its tail, stirring up the wind and clouds, and pounced fiercely towards the Snow Emperor.

The Snow Empress remained unfazed. With a flick of her wrist, a translucent ice sword, entirely formed from the purest ice, appeared in her hand. The sword was crystal clear, yet it emanated a terrifying chill capable of freezing even space itself.

Her figure was graceful, like a celestial maiden, her sword flashing and ice flowers dancing as she faced the overwhelming dark holy dragon.

On the other side, Poison Undying had also completed his Martial Soul Possession. His burly body rapidly expanded under the shroud of dark green light, transforming in the blink of an eye into a green giant tens of meters tall! The giant's muscles were bulging, exuding a savage and violent aura, which was the ultimate form of his original Martial Soul!
"Give me your life!" the green giant roared, throwing a punch that sent a piercing whistling sound through the air as it hurtled towards Kong Deming, who was also soaring into the sky.

Kong Deming's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked like a madman. The Silver Moon Martial Soul behind him shone brightly, and countless soul guide rays poured out from various parts of his body and the silver moon as if they were free, colliding fiercely with the green giant that Du Busi had transformed into!
High in the sky, four of the world's top experts were locked in a fierce battle. The sounds of their colliding energies were like rolling thunder, and the scattered soul power fluctuations caused the clouds below to surge violently, sometimes being torn apart, sometimes frozen, and sometimes dyed into eerie dark green and dazzling silver-white by the violent energy.

……

Meanwhile, at the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

The earth-shattering explosion from the direction of the palace, and the subsequent illumination of the night sky as if it were daytime, naturally alerted this highest institution of learning that cultivates elite soul masters for the empire.

The earth shook violently, wave after wave, like a tsunami. Countless buildings in the academy were humming and some windows that were not sturdy enough were even shattered.

"what happened?"

"My God! That direction... is the palace!"

"Such terrifying energy fluctuations! Could it be an enemy attack?"

An uproar erupted within the academy. Countless students and instructors, who had been sleeping, were awakened and rushed out of their dormitories and laboratories, staring in horror at the enormous mushroom cloud that slowly rose and blotted out the sky in the direction of the palace, as well as the sky that was reddened by the firelight.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Several figures radiating powerful soul energy surged into the sky from various corners of the academy. They were all instructors, including many Soul Douluo and even Title Douluo level experts. Their expressions were solemn, clearly realizing the seriousness of the situation, and they prepared to go to the palace to provide support.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred!
Without warning, a gentle yet extremely majestic light, like the rising sun, descended from the sky and instantly enveloped the entire Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.
