Douluo: This Legend of the Dragon King is not quite right

Emperor Xu only glanced at the core of the explosion.

He had only witnessed indirectly through his soul tool that the destructive intent and the light and shadow of law collapse revealed when the four level twelve god-slaying fixed soul-guided cannons exploded at the same time had already burned the visual nerves of this peak expert and even shaken his spiritual sea.

Xu Tiandi remained silent, raising his other slightly trembling hand to wipe the blood from his face. The warm, sticky sensation from his fingertips sent a chill down his spine.

Immediately, his hand involuntarily pressed against his abdomen, where it seemed as if a world-destroying beast, even more terrifying and profound than the earth-shattering explosion, was lurking.

Eternal Heaven!

In his mind, this was no longer something that could be defined as a level 12 soul-guided cannonball. It was the ultimate destructive vessel that was born from the combined efforts of countless generations of soul masters in the Federation, the depletion of continental resources, and theories that transcended the times!
Xu Tiandi prefers to call it a Level 13 God-Slaying Fixed-Position Soul-Guided Cannonball!

Theoretically, its power alone exceeds the combined power of the four level 12 shells just now!

He took a deep breath of the cold air, which smelled of gunpowder and dust, and forcibly suppressed the pounding in his heart.

As his soul power circulated, the burning pain in his eyes eased slightly, and his vision gradually returned.

His senses immediately locked onto the center of the destructive storm.

Unexpectedly, yet somehow predictably, Poseidon Island, like a stubborn rock in the eye of a storm, stubbornly exists under the protection of a pale golden light.

"Reporting to the Speaker!" The voice of Yu Guanzhi, commander of the Central Legion, rang out at the right time, filled with undisguised shock, "Poseidon Island... the energy reaction is still present, and the protection of the Golden Ancient Tree withstood the aftershocks of the explosion!"

Inside the command vehicle, a collective gasp filled the air.

The military leaders looked at each other, their faces filled with disbelief.

Four level 12 God-Slaying Cannonballs were dropped directly from a satellite in outer space, yet they still failed to wipe out that last fortress along with the remnants inside.
Is Shrek Academy's foundation truly this profound?
Xu Tiandi's expression did not change much; his voice was steady, carrying a coldness of complete control:

"It's alright, this scene was expected."

"When Shrek is at his wit's end, he will inevitably use all his trump cards."

"The powerful divine energy fluctuations that appeared just now, and the annihilation that followed, must have been because they summoned the legendary Tang San at some cost, so that he could bear most of the destructive impact for them."

He paused, his gaze sharp as a knife, piercing through the vast distance, as if landing on that towering golden ancient tree.

"Otherwise, the Golden Tree itself would have been reduced to ashes by such power long ago. However, this does not affect the final outcome. Our preparations have never stopped there."

He turned to the pillar of the Federation's Soul Guidance Technology—Old Kong—beside him.

"Professor Kong, are we ready for the next satellite strike?"

Confucius, with the confidence of a top scholar and pride in his creation, bowed and replied:

"Reporting to the Speaker, the Level 11 Soul Guidance Device—'Sky-Based Judgment Light' satellite beam—is fully charged, and its orbital parameters have been locked onto Poseidon Island. It is ready to launch a precision strike at any time!"

"Very well." Emperor Xu's voice was resolute and devoid of any emotion. "Execute the final judgment. Target: the Golden Ancient Tree!" "Even if we cannot completely destroy it in one strike, we must squeeze out its last bit of energy to clear the final obstacle for the encirclement and suppression of Yun Ming!"

"As ordered!"

Master Kong solemnly obeyed the order, his withered fingers pressing once again the scarlet button that represented the command to die.

Beyond the heavens, the suspended military satellite slightly adjusted its angle. Inside the massive cannon muzzle, the extremely complex soul guidance matrix lit up once more. Unlike the previous deployment of physical shells, this time, it was a pure and ultimate energy convergence.

The terrifying energy fluctuations even caused subtle distortions in the space around the satellite.

The next moment, a pure white beam of light, indescribably brilliant and concentrated, tore through the sky like a divine spear of judgment, ignoring the distance of space, and with absolute precision and the will to annihilate all matter and energy structures, crashed down toward Seagod Island and the ancient golden tree.

Level 11 Soul Tool, Satellite Ray, descend!

……

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away from Shrek City, on another solitary peak.

Lu Jun, Gu Yuena, Bingdi, and Xuedi stood side by side.

Even though they had retreated to such a great distance, the pitch-black sphere that had swallowed up thousands of miles, the wailing that had shattered the plane, and the lone cloud of doomsday mushrooms that had soared into the sky were still deeply imprinted on their retinas and souls.

Hyotei's delicate yet always icy face paled slightly. She instinctively gripped Yuki-tei's hand, her voice trembling slightly, a tremor she herself was unaware of:

"...What...what kind of monster is that? If it's in the core, I'm afraid we..."

She didn't finish her sentence, but her meaning was clear: even the Northern Heavenly King would only be vaporized instantly under such destructive power.

Xue Di was relatively composed, but her icy blue eyes were filled with an unprecedented solemnity. She nodded slowly, her voice ethereal yet dignified:
"It transcends all concepts of Soul Masters... It is the collapse of rules, the wound of the world. The Federation... has mastered the power to kill gods."

Gu Yuena's amethyst-like eyes flickered with complex light. She first took a deep look at the gradually calming yet still shocking abyss of destruction, then suddenly turned her head to stare at Lu Jun beside her, who looked as if to say, "I'm shocked too." Her tone carried a hint of disbelief, reproach, and inquiry:

"Lu Jun! You... just how much trouble have you been secretly stirring up behind the scenes for the Federation's soul-guided technology? The impact... is just too outrageous!"

"Forget Shrek Academy, if those four exploded all at once on me, I'd be in deep trouble. Just how much power have you increased the Federation's soul-guiding technology?!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Jun felt somewhat embarrassed and couldn't help but say:

"You're wronging me. I admit I provided some crucial energy cores, but I never expected them to be this powerful!"

"It's only been a few years? The speed at which this technology has advanced is faster than even riding a rocket!"

He gazed at the ruins with lingering regret.

"Fortunately, because my power essence has more or less participated in and influenced the construction of some of their core soul guide runes, the direct lethality of these weapons against me personally will theoretically be reduced by at least one-third... Hmm, I guess so." (End of Chapter)
