Douluo Continent: The Twin Sons of the Styx River, Shaking the World and Destroying the Heavens

Chapter 131 The Dream of Guixu City Lord

Suddenly, a blue-haired woman appeared.

The woman appeared to be human, with long, light blue hair loosely tied into a neat single ponytail, the ends slightly curled. A vibrant spider lily was tucked diagonally into her hair, its crimson petals contrasting sharply with the blue, like a burning flame blooming in the cool night sky. Her ethereal light blue eyes were deep and mysterious.

Her figure was as slender as bamboo, and her pale, snow-white skin had a sickly beauty. You could almost see the faint blue veins under her skin, yet it was as delicate and smooth as the finest silk, gleaming with a cold luster in the dim light of the underworld.

Moreover, her features were extremely delicate, and her lips were as red as blood, full and moist, as if they were painted with the most vibrant rouge, or as if they were stained with fresh blood. The slightly upturned corners of her mouth carried a faint smile, making it impossible to fathom her emotions.

A long, blood-red dress clung to her body, outlining her graceful figure. The skirt, like a blooming mandala, layered and swayed gently in the breeze, seemingly pulsating with life. The dress's material was neither sheer nor veil, revealing glimpses of her slender waist and long legs. Her bare feet were delicate and rounded, her toes exquisite like pearls, adorned with red anklets from which hung tiny bells that swayed gently with her steps, producing a clear, melodious sound that echoed in the silent underworld, like an ethereal melody.

She knelt down and said, "This humble woman, Youmeng, the City Lord of Guixu City, pays respects to the God of Death."

Xia Die said, "Get up."

The former God of Death once told me that the Underworld is vast, with many kinds of cities, and has four gates: east, west, south, and north. It also exists in the Douluo Continent.

However, the South Gate and North Gate were already closed in Douluo Continent long ago, so we will ignore them for now.

Only the East Gate and West Gate remain.

The Sea of ​​Dead Flowers that the butterfly entered was through the East Gate.

Simon's words are from the area where the other side of the Death Realm is located.

Upon hearing these words, Youmeng immediately stood up.

Judging from her aura, Xia Die's cultivation level is at the first-level god level. In this Guixu City, there are a total of three first-level gods and ten second-level gods.

"Please forgive me for not knowing that the new God of Death has suddenly descended."

"No need to be so nervous. This is my first time in the Underworld too. I'll be staying here for a long time. Please take me into the city and introduce me to the place."

"No problem, Lord God of Death, this way please."

The door opened slowly, filled with the light of the eternal night.

Once inside the city, there are rows of shops made up of ghosts, all selling things from the underworld.

This place is simply used to register all the deaths of souls.

This place is somewhat different from the stone bridge formed by the foundation stones when we first entered. It is not so eternally dark; there is a little light, but it is all dark green light, and the creatures here are all undead.

Skeletons, ghosts, and the like.

"Lord God of Death, allow me to introduce myself. Guixu City here is the first stop for souls who died before entering the East Gate. However, it is only used to record and register information about their lives. Further on is the Bridge of Rebirth. Our main job here is to register information and obtain a pass to the next stop. Some disturbances often occur here, caused by evil spirits."

"I see."

Xia Die discovered many souls here, all of them souls that were on the move.

Furthermore, it is learned from this that some souls still harbor the idea of ​​escaping, and the order of life and death remains chaotic.

Going forward, the rules governing life and death in this area need to be re-planned.

After chatting with Youmeng for a few minutes, I left Guixu City and came to a bridge. Below me was the surging river, the River Styx.

This is the Bridge to the Rebirth, where souls enter to be cleansed.

They all come to erase their past lives and enter the next cycle of reincarnation to live a new life.

…………

Meanwhile, at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

Two people were engaged in a one-on-one duel; they were Meng Hongchen and Jiu Li.

The reason they fought one-on-one was that Meng Hongchen was bored and Xia Die had to go out for a while, so they wanted to show off their strength. Meng Hongchen was now level 75 and Jiu Li was level 73.

The two are vastly different, only two levels apart.

With her fiery red hair, Jiu Li said to Meng Hongchen, "Sister Meng, you want to challenge me to a duel? I've been itching for a fight for a while now, and no one has come to challenge me."

Meng Hongchen looked at the youngest of their generation and shook her head bitterly.

Why don't you say it's Xiao Xiao?

During the visit, it was discovered that the girl was a loli (young girl), but she was older than Wang Dong'er, only much less developed.

Xiao Xiao: …………

"Alright, Junior Sister Jiu Li, let me see how much stronger you've become."

"Okay!"

At this moment, Meng Hongchen's martial soul directly possessed him, and a giant dragon phantom floated behind him. Behind Meng Hongchen, a pair of ice-blue dragon wings unfolded. Since the Heavenly Ranking reward came, he has gone from relying on a flying soul tool to being able to fly without one.

After all, they are already Soul Saints, yet neither of them has been able to condense their Soul Cores. Meng Hongchen's current Martial Soul is called Heavenly Frost Dragon, possessing extreme ice, extreme poison, and extreme wind. However, her poison is a cold poison, not one of those terrifying extreme poisons.

The spirit rings on his body were yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, red, and red.

With two 100,000-year soul rings, Meng Hongchen already possessed the soul spirits of two 100,000-year soul beasts during his time in the Butterfly Dragon Valley, further enhancing his strength.

The enormous dragon phantom was massive, and when it appeared, a layer of frost covered its surroundings. Its wings were covered with dense, sharp ice spikes, and its eyes were a terrifying blue-green.

Jiu Li's martial soul release was even more powerful, wielding a spear three to four meters long. The spearhead was incomparably sharp, a golden color brimming with intense battle intent, like gold molten by the blazing sun. The three-edged blade was engraved with winding crimson patterns, and its sharpest point flickered with faint flames. Below, it was woven from phoenix tail feathers, each feather burning with a ghostly blue flame. When it moved without wind, it produced a series of crackling sounds, like thousands of sparks leaping. Nine crimson crystal bells hung from the shaft, engraved with ancient flame runes. When they swayed, they emitted a clear, resonant sound like metal striking stone, distorting the air and leaving scorched flame trails in their wake. The entire spear exuded a domineering and murderous aura, as if condensing an entire sea of ​​fire into a small space; a mere flick of the wrist could unleash a raging inferno that would scorch the heavens and the earth.

Seven spirit rings appeared on his body, but they were yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, and red.

Both were Soul Saints, and after activating their Martial Souls, they attacked without hesitation.

This is how battles between girls are.

Between ice and fire, an extremely terrifying power erupted, causing special water vapor to form around them, creating a hazy atmosphere.

Here, it's often hot, often cold, giving you the feeling of being in both extremes.

After the first round of probing between the two sides, the second approach came next.

Although Meng Hongchen possesses the attributes of ultimate ice, ultimate wind, and ultimate poison, he is still unable to suppress Jiu Li, who only possesses ultimate fire.

"First Soul Skill, Crimson Flame Slash."

A blazing, fiery blade, like a raging inferno, slashed towards Meng Hongchen with unparalleled power.

The attack created a heatwave in the air, making people feel incredibly excited.

Meng Hongchen also unleashed his first soul skill, the Profound Ice Extreme Mark Blade.

After receiving the rewards from the Heavenly Ranking, her six soul skills are completely different from before; in fact, they are arguably even more powerful.

A force filled with ice and storm collided with Jiu Li's attack.

Both attacks were neutralized immediately.

Meng Hongchen suddenly took out two swords, which seemed to be soul tools and appeared to be at the seventh level. Both of them were wearing battle armor, and judging from the battle of soul masters without wearing battle armor.

The difference between the two is not much, the only difference being the lack of a 100,000-year soul ring.

However, both of them are level seven soul masters, and it will take them a lot of time to defeat each other.

After joining the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, Jiu Li also displayed amazing talent. If you had to describe her in two words, it would definitely be "monster".

Both in terms of their field of expertise as Soul Masters and their overall talent as Soul Masters, they are exceptionally gifted. Although they cannot compare to Xia Die and Bolysia, they are still quite capable compared to others.

"Second Soul Skill: Flame Enhancement".

The flames on Jiu Li's spear became even more powerful, and its attack and soul skill damage were significantly increased.

Meng Hongchen's second soul skill is not an attack, but only a defense and enhancement.

"Second Soul Skill: True Dragon Overlord Body"

It emitted an icy blue light. This soul skill was nothing special; it granted immunity to control effects and reduced some damage.

In short, it's about being immune to damage and crowd control.

However, it cannot be immune to both psychological and physical harm.

"Third Soul Skill, Pale Storm."

A massive tornado was generated around Jiu Li, and within the ice tornado was a chilling poison. If one were to accidentally come into contact with it, it would be extremely unpleasant.

However, this is only a control-type attack, suitable for team battles, but it might be a bit of a stretch for individual battles.

Because the ice tornadoes aren't that fast, there's plenty of time to dodge them.

The spread range is not that large.

"Third Soul Skill: Lone Sky Strike".

This skill is Jiu Li's explosive soul skill. It can lock onto the enemy and is very effective against agility-based soul masters. After charging up, it attacks the opponent and ignores their defense, making its destructive power astonishing.

Jiu Li hurled the spear with all her might at Meng Hongchen, its power almost engulfing the entire space. The pure fire spear, filled with raging flames, passed through Meng Hongchen's tornado and melted it away.

This terrifying attack, filled with blazing flames, shot directly at Meng Hongchen. Even the defensive soul tool had no effect, but it did have some damage reduction, which helped him withstand a lot of damage. But to be honest...

At this stage, almost no one can rival Jiu Li; in other words, she is perfectly suited for the position of God of Fire.
