Douluo: The Peerless King Dong'er's Restarted Life

Chapter 311 Level 9 Fixed-Position Soul-Guided Cannonball, Cicada, Mantis, and Oriole (4,000 words)

The Xi Shui Alliance originally planted two of its own people, but one of them, named Mo Ke, was defeated by Huo Yuhao and thus failed to enter the final competition. His carving knife, Dark Azure Dragon, was also won by Huo Yuhao in a bet using several level-eight soul tools made by Xuan Ziwen as stakes.

At the same time, Huo Yuhao also used his simulated soul skills to simulate some of the abilities of the Death Messenger, thus forging the identity of an evil soul master. However, he did so in a way that was not easily recognizable, which made Nangong Wan, the leader of the Xishui Alliance, eager to recruit Huo Yuhao and make him work for the Holy Spirit Cult.

In fact, why are the Ordinary Alliance and the Aodu Chamber of Commerce targeting the Xishui Alliance?
Besides the existing conflict over rare metals business, there is another reason related to the Holy Spirit Cult, the evil soul master organization behind the Xi Shui Alliance.

When the Holy Spirit Cult initially registered for the Soul Fighting Tournament under the alias Holy Spirit Sect, there was considerable opposition within the Sun Moon Empire.

However, with the Holy Spirit Cult as a sharp weapon, why wouldn't Xu Tianran use it?

The incorporation of the Holy Spirit Cult was accompanied by bloodshed and violence from the very beginning.

However, since Xu Tianran was unable to completely win over all forces, there were still dissenting voices. But to Xu Tianran, they were like clowns and there was no need to care about them.

Although things weren't perfect, as long as no one held us back, it was enough.

The master of Mingde Hall, Hongchen, also hinted that he would be involved in a great undertaking with Mingde Hall.

What else could a great undertaking refer to? Of course, it's Xu Tianran leading the Sun Moon Empire to unify the continent and even conquer the entire planet!
Of course, there are some minor surprises now, with the emergence of the troublesome force known as the Temple of Light out of nowhere.

However, the Holy Spirit Cult has two Limit Douluo, and its leader, Zhongli Wu, is also a level 98 Super Douluo. Having the Hall of Light and the Holy Spirit Cult check and balance each other is not a bad option.

Among the three major underground forces in Mingdu, the forces behind the Ordinary Alliance and the Aodu Chamber of Commerce include those who oppose Xu Tianran. The Xishui Alliance, which is controlled by the Holy Spirit Sect, has naturally become a thorn in their side.

The high-ranking officials who supported Xu Tianran also knew that the Holy Spirit Church would not last long, so they tacitly approved of this targeting.

Anyway, it's just a targeted attack, and Xu Tianran won't hold them accountable.

An ordinary hotel.

Shangguan Weier, the leader of the Ordinary Alliance, walked gracefully to Wang Dong'er and the other two. Her curvaceous figure was incredibly alluring, yet her face was filled with a holy air, creating a striking contrast.

Shangguan Weier first looked at Wang Dong'er, then glanced at the three of them, and slowly said, "First of all, I want to congratulate you on entering the finals."

"You have only one goal this time: to do everything in your power to prevent the Xishui Alliance from winning the final championship."

"If someone wins the championship, the Ordinary Alliance will give them a private reward. Although our Ordinary Alliance is not as wealthy as the Evening Water Alliance, we have accumulated quite a bit of wealth."

"Now let me talk about the finals. The competition venue has been arranged in the western suburbs after consultation among the three major forces. The rules of the competition have also been determined. Each force will send three people to fight. They will be given three hours to make a soul tool. There is no limit to the materials, but they can only make one soul tool."

"After the soul tool is completed, you will participate in three competitions. The first is a skills competition, where a judge will give you a mysterious question, which I don't even know yet. After this round, the soul tool master who ranks last will be eliminated."

"The second round will be a competition of practical skills. The person with the highest skill score will face the person with the lowest score in the quarterfinals, the second-highest scorer will face the second-to-last scorer, and so on."

"After the top four are determined, the semi-finals will be held by drawing lots, followed by the final."

"The rules of this competition are as fair as possible, but there are still some things you need to pay attention to."

"First of all, whether it's making or using, you can only use one soul tool. Whether you use an offensive soul tool or a defensive soul tool depends on what you are good at."

"If too much energy is consumed during the creation of the soul tool, there is a risk of being eliminated in the subsequent competition. The higher the score in the skill competition, the greater the advantage in the quarterfinals. Therefore, you must make a thorough plan in the initial soul tool creation process."

At this moment, in the Qingse Hotel, Huo Yuhao and two other people were listening to the competition rules from Nangong Wan, the leader of the Xishui Alliance.

The Xi Shui Alliance also offers a reward to the winner of the championship, but unlike the Pingfan Alliance which did not directly state what the reward was, Nangong Wan simply had a large black box brought over.

The large box was being carried by four burly men in black, but they still seemed to be struggling.

Huo Yuhao couldn't help but use his mental power to probe it, but he couldn't penetrate the large black box at all and was blocked outside.

Clearly, this thing is extremely precious, so precious that it needs to be preserved in this way that isolates it from everything.

After the large black box was put down, Nangong Wan came to the box and gently pressed the side of the box. A screen popped up on the box, flashing with many complex runes.

Huo Yuhao recognized it immediately.

Soul Guide Code High-Explosive Box.

These boxes are sealed using a soul tool combined with a special password. If the password is entered incorrectly, it will detonate the high-explosive soul tool inside, resulting in an extremely terrifying explosion.

However, these boxes will give you a few chances to try and fail. They won't explode immediately if you make a mistake on the first try, but they generally won't give you more than five chances to try and fail.

Realizing the importance of this thing, Huo Yuhao immediately memorized all of Nangong Wan's actions.

Before long, Nangong Wan unlocked the box, and with a soft sound, the box slowly opened.

An old man swiftly threw out a semi-circular protective shield, which enveloped the group.

The moment the box was opened, a chilling aura emanated from it.

"A level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell?!" Among the group, the burly man who appeared to be in disguise exclaimed in disbelief.

The box had been completely opened, and its interior was filled with jade glue used as stuffing.

This substance is as white as jade, yet it is soft and elastic, providing a strong cushioning effect, hence the name "jade glue".

Inside the jade, there is a conical object with a cylindrical middle section and a ring-shaped groove at the rear.

The previous chilling aura was emanating from these level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells.

Being rated as level nine already means that this soul tool is quite valuable, not to mention that it is also labeled as "fixed-equipment".

Fixed-position soul tools are generally extremely powerful, requiring far more precious materials than ordinary soul tools, yet consuming very little soul power, and can be used without requiring high cultivation. The combination of level nine and fixed-position is practically a symbol of destruction.

However, this is a one-time consumable item, and it needs to be used in conjunction with a level 9 soul-guided cannon to achieve terrifying long-range strikes.

Even without a level nine soul-guided cannon, this level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannonball could be detonated directly at close range. However, if the detonator does not have the ability to escape instantly, they will inevitably be reduced to ashes in the explosion.

To date, only the Sun Moon Empire has the capability to manufacture Level 9 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells. As for how many Level 9 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells the Sun Moon Empire actually possesses, even some of its high-ranking officials do not know.

Huo Yuhao was secretly shocked, never expecting that the Holy Spirit Cult could even produce something like this.

However, how could such a soul-guided cannonball be less important than the champion of the Soul Master Competition?

It seems that once he gets to the finals, he'll have to find a way to tell Wang Dong'er about the existence of this level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell.

Meanwhile, Merck, who had lost the previous duel and was standing beside the old man, cast a venomous glare at Huo Yuhao.

It was because of Huo Yuhao that he not only lost his Dark Azure Dragon Carving Blade and his legs, but also lost the opportunity to obtain this Level 9 Fixed-Equipment Soul Guidance Cannonball.

"It seems you've all figured it out already," Nangong Wan said with a smile. "This level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell is called Destruction Storm. As for its specific effects and usage, you'll have to wait until one of you three wins the final championship before you can learn from me."

"I can assure you that if you win today, I will give you this reward on the spot. Good luck."

As he spoke, Nangong Wan closed the box, concealing the chilling atmosphere.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao was unaware that this level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannonball was only obtained because Nangong Wan valued his simulated evil soul master abilities and wanted to take him as a personal disciple. That's why he asked the vice leader of the Holy Spirit Sect to come forward and retrieve this level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannonball.

Furthermore, he could also guess that Huo Yuhao was a Soul Master with a mental attribute. The powerful strength of a Soul Master and a Soul Master Master, coupled with his status as a "wicked Soul Master" with a mental attribute, made him a natural-born prodigy of sainthood.

With so many lice, there's no itching; with so many children, there's no worry. Naturally, Nangong Wan's mind became more active.

Western suburbs of Mingdu.

The teams from the three major underground forces have all arrived here.

The three factions all wore clothes of different colors: the leaders of the Pingfan Alliance wore yellow, the members of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce wore white outfits, and the Xishui Alliance wore black outfits.

In addition to the three factions, there were also some noble families and wealthy people watching the battle.

This place has been sealed off by the three major underground forces, and no outsiders are allowed to enter. At the deepest part is a circular competition arena surrounded by concentric viewing platforms.

At the forefront of the Xishui Alliance, the old man whispered to Nangong Wan, "Of the seven judges, three are from the Pingfan Alliance and the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, two are our people, and two are neutral. Will there be any problems?"

Nangong Wan sneered, "If it weren't for Xu Tianran's sake, how could the Pingfan Alliance and the Aodu Chamber of Commerce be qualified to be compared with us?"

“More people from the cult will be coming over later. I want to see if the three people they’ve recruited really dare to stand against us.”

Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao was in a strange state of mind.

Having experienced this several times before, Huo Yuhao immediately realized that Wang Dong'er was using Etheric Flow to have a hyperspace conversation with him.

This is a place that no one would notice, unless someone's mental strength far surpasses Wang Dong'er's, in which case there is a slight possibility that they would detect it.

Huo Yuhao quickly told Wang Dong'er what he had seen and heard at the Xishui Alliance, and also included some speculation about the third contestant of the Xishui Alliance, the man in disguise.

When Huo Yuhao first met this disguised giant, he felt a slight sense of familiarity emanating from him. Although the giant did not use any soul skills afterward, Huo Yuhao still vaguely guessed his identity.

Radish.

At first, Huo Yuhao was a little surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, he didn't find it abrupt anymore.

He Caitou is a pure Soul Master with the bloodline of the Sun Moon Empire's royal family. He lived in the Sun Moon Empire when he was a child. He now represents the New Tang Sect and Shrek Academy, which are led by Bei Bei. How could he not come when he heard about the Soul Master Competition, a competition where rare metals could be easily obtained?
However, judging from He Caitou's appearance, he was probably taught by Shrek Academy's so-called Extreme Individual Soldier Program.

Shrek Academy's disguise technique is truly amazing; it completely transformed He Caitou into a different person.

He Caitou might even have the idea of ​​smuggling rare metals back to the New Tang Sect or Shrek Academy.

After listening to Huo Yuhao's report and Nangong Wan's earlier mention that other members of the Holy Spirit Church had arrived at the scene, Wang Dong'er thought for a while and said, "Huo Yuhao, these level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannons are probably aimed at you."

"Huh? Me?" Huo Yuhao was slightly taken aback.

"Otherwise, do you think the Soul Master Competition is as important as this? It must be that your simulated evil Soul Master abilities attracted their attention. By the way, what did you simulate?"

"Uh... that Death Messenger, I used a rabbit corpse to simulate the abilities of the Corpse Puppet and Corpse Explosion, and blew off Merck's legs."

"Hmm?" Wang Dong'er chuckled. "No wonder... the abilities of the Death Messenger are quite special to the Holy Spirit Cult."

That's Xuanzi certified, and the battle record is verifiable. Huo Yuhao silently complained.

"Just play normally, there's no need to worry about their championship reward. I've already made arrangements for these Holy Spirit Cult members. We might not be able to catch many big fish, but they definitely won't be able to take the level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells."

Because the reward was to be given on the spot, Nangong Wan had the level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell carried over and placed right next to him.

With Huo Yuhao's simulated soul skill, it won't be difficult to take it away later.

On the competition stage, Lu Qi, the host of the final, began to speak: "...Next, let's invite the three leaders and presidents of the organizers of this competition: the Ordinary Alliance, the Aodu Chamber of Commerce and the Xishui Alliance, to come to the stage and give their speeches."

Nangong Wan's face immediately turned gloomy.

This host actually placed their Xishui Alliance after the Pingfan Alliance and the Aodu Chamber of Commerce. They are truly courting death!
However, Nangong Wan still went straight up.
