Douluo Jueshi: I Don't Want to Be an Evil Soul Master

Chapter 407 Entering the Tower
"What's wrong? It's the middle of the night."

On the Tongming Sect's plaza, some disciples had already gathered after receiving the news.

"Exactly, can't we talk about this tomorrow?"

"Hmph, I think the Tongming Sect is just playing us. We brothers have come all the way here, but we haven't even seen the sect leader."

"That's right. If we can't join the religion, all those people outside can only watch. I've been itching to join for a long time."

Several tall figures gathered together, their faces full of fierce expressions, and they spoke in undisguised voices.

Someone nearby heard their complaints but didn't join them or try to dissuade them; they simply moved away from them quietly.

During Lin Xiao's absence, it wasn't just the former disciples of the Holy Spirit Sect who entered the Tongming Sect; some evil spirit masters from other places also came and begged for the Tongming Sect's protection after hearing the rumors. They didn't know what kind of place the Holy Spirit Sect was.

Their conversation reached the ears of the original Holy Spirit Cult disciples, who naturally didn't even have time to hide.

Soon, even more disciples gathered in the square. When the abhorrent sect built this square, they never imagined that the Tongming Sect would one day have so many disciples, and the square suddenly became somewhat crowded.

"Who is it that's keeping people up at night!"

Someone complained, but the next moment, his eyes widened, his veins bulged, his face turned red, and he made a meaningless "hoarse" sound before collapsing to the ground.

There was no fluctuation of soul power, no blood spilled, only branches and leaves growing from his mouth and nose, blooming into a bright red spider lily.

The square fell silent instantly, except for the sound of snowflakes falling.

Many evil spirit masters who came from outside felt a chill in their hearts as they watched the spirit master who had just been shouting fall without resistance. Only the disciples who came from the Holy Spirit Cult felt their hearts beat faster.

That's right, that's exactly it, this is the Holy Cult of Evil Soul Masters in their minds.

"I'll have to trouble you to clean up later."

Hearing Lin Xiao's words, Hatred glanced at the square. The corpse of the dead Soul Master remained intact in its place, and the surrounding area was clean, so there was no need to say that it had been cleaned up.

Lin Xiao didn't pay much attention to the reaction of the abomination, but walked forward step by step. Right in front of the Tongming Sect Square, under the gaze of countless evil soul masters, he slowly stepped into the air as if he were stepping on invisible stairs.

Before he could even speak, Lin Xiao's aura surged, and the aura of a Super Douluo burst forth, making everyone in the square gasp for breath. Some of them even fell to the ground, unable to even catch their breath.

The expressions of Hatred and Wu Yun, who had come with Lin Xiao, also changed slightly.

Lin Xiao had never shown his strength to them before, and his attitude towards other disciples in the Tongming Sect was quite gentle, to the point that some people almost forgot that Lin Xiao was now a genuine Super Douluo.

He was even renowned throughout the Douluo Continent, almost considered the number one person on the continent by everyone, the Calamity Douluo.

"You have come from afar, surely you have heard of the name of my Tongming Sect."

Lin Xiao's tone was quite polite, but his ever-present imposing aura made the disciples completely unaware of his politeness.

"As you all think, once you join my Tongming Sect, you can leave your past behind and no one will ask about it. My Tongming Sect is also the state religion of the Sun Moon Empire. I don't need to elaborate on its many benefits; you all know them yourself."

As they spoke, someone seemed to think of the ordinary people who had taken refuge here outside the Tongming Sect, and swallowed slightly.

Lin Xiao pretended not to see it, saying, "However, those who wish to join my Tongming Sect should possess outstanding talent and strength." As he spoke, Lin Xiao slightly withdrew his aura. The corpse of the evil soul master still lay to one side, and the spider lily stood out even more against the backdrop of the surrounding snow. The square remained quiet.

"Therefore, you must accompany me to the secret realm of my Tongming Sect for assessment. Those who pass the assessment will not only be able to join my Tongming Sect, but will also receive other rewards."

"Now, come with me."

Hatred and Wu Yun exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of confusion in each other's eyes.

Nowadays, the Tongming Sect's headquarters are just simple, undecent rooms built by those who hate them. There's not enough room for everyone, so where would they get any secret realms?

But soon, Abomination realized something. If there was anything special about it, it was probably just that thing he had seen in the core of the far north.

As he was pondering this, Hatred saw Lin Xiao nod at him from afar, then his soul power surged and he turned to leave.

"All disciples, follow me and the sect leader to the secret realm!" Abomination shouted, ordering the disciples in the square to move.

"I...I won't go..."

Before coming to the Tongming Sect, the evil soul master was a notorious bandit with many henchmen. Seeing the fate of the soul master just now, he felt a pang of regret.

After all, if he could stay in his original place, although he would have to evade the Sun Moon Empire's pursuit, he would at least be in charge. Now that he has come to the Tongming Sect, he has to abide by the rules here.

The robber's voice seemed to have attracted Lin Xiao's attention as well. Lin Xiao slowly turned around and glanced at him. Then, the robber could no longer speak and, like the evil soul master from before, turned into a bright flower.

"Do you all really think that my Tongming Sect is a place where you can come and go as you please?"

As he spoke, he looked around again, "If you don't want to participate in the assessment... well, my Tongming Sect is newly established and still lacks some materials..."

Before he finished speaking, some of the original Holy Spirit Cult disciples had already understood the meaning behind Lin Xiao's words, and their sinister gazes began to sweep back and forth among the crowd.

The crowd fell silent and followed Lin Xiao quietly.

"Your Tongming Sect is quite a good place. Those evil soul masters who want to repent are eager to join, and those with ulterior motives are also thinking of joining."

"Teacher, I hope that more people, regardless of their intentions, will come here. No matter what kind of person they are, they will find a suitable place here."

"You must understand this clearly: entering that Eternal Tower is easy, but getting out..."

Electrolux didn't explain himself very clearly, but Lin Xiao understood and nodded slightly.

As Lin Xiao and Electrolux were having their internal conversation, a tall tower slowly came into view.

Although it was night, the tower emitted a grayish-white light, making it clearly visible even from a great distance.

Some evil spirit masters even felt their soul power fluctuate uncontrollably after sensing the aura emanating from the tower.

"Gentlemen, follow me—into the tower."
