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

Chapter 457 The Evil Emperor?

After a few brief tests, the Evil Emperor realized that Lin Xiao's purpose in coming here was not to rebuild its connection with the Holy Spirit Cult, but to put it to death.

In the Demon Forest, the Evil Emperor was worshipped by the Holy Spirit Cult. He had never seen a human treat him like this before, especially since he considered himself quite powerful and had even challenged Emperor Tian in the past.

Seeing Lin Xiao and Chen Hai's attempt to defeat it, a nameless rage suddenly rose within him.

"Mere humans—"

The deep, resonant sound grew louder and louder, and the surrounding sea level rose continuously in response to its fury.

Compared to the Evil Emperor's enormous body, Chen Haisheng's figure was insignificant. However, with the power of the sea behind him, Chen Haisheng did not show much fatigue after the collision of forces.

Although it was only a brief confrontation, the Evil Emperor was clearly unwilling to see his power blocked by a human he looked down upon.

With another roar, dozens of tentacles wriggled up and waved incessantly.

The primordial energy of heaven and earth was thrown into chaos, and in this chaos, Lin Xiao was unable to discern how many tentacles were in front of him.

As the tentacles appeared, Chen Haisheng's body was shaken and staggered. The Evil Emperor clearly did not intend to give him any time to catch his breath. On each of the tentacles, eyes opened.

A dense array of eyes turned to Chen Haisheng. Even as a Limit Douluo, he felt a chill run down his spine. His mind was affected by the Evil Emperor's spiritual power, and he was momentarily dazed.

The next instant, a beam of pitch-black light shot out from the Evil Emperor's enormous eyeball.

It was called a ray of light, but it was actually just an extreme blackness. It left nothing behind in its path, even swallowing up light. The surging seawater disappeared the moment it came into contact with the light, and even the water vapor in the air was completely evaporated.

Chen Haisheng barely managed to activate his soul power, and another towering wave surged up from beneath the sea.

Unfortunately, this power did not stop the Evil Emperor's attack as it had before, and was instead pierced through by that dark light.

"Brother Lin..."

Chen Haisheng had long known that the Evil Emperor was not easy to deal with, so he was not the only one who appeared here from the beginning. Seeing the Evil Emperor's attack coming, Chen Haisheng called out.

Before he spoke, Lin Xiao had already taken action.

The nine soul rings, six black and three red, pulsed incessantly. Lin Xiao made no attempt to conceal the extreme aura of death emanating from his body. In the next moment, the vast sea was instantly dyed blood red.

No, it wasn't dyed blood red, but rather long, narrow, blood-red petals were mixed in with the seawater, rising into the sky like silk, or like a long, blood-red river flowing through the air.

Lin Xiao's fifth and seventh spirit rings lit up simultaneously, and the seawater in the air turned into droplets that fell to the sea surface like drizzle, while the petals that filled the sky continued to dance in the air.

With his Martial Soul True Form unleashed, Lin Xiao stood gracefully on the surging sea, as if holding a flower, or perhaps standing amidst a sea of ​​flowers in another world.

The sound of waves rose in my ears, not from the actual sea, but as if a long river of oblivion came from the underworld, and the colors of the spider lilies became even more vibrant under its waters.

The first, second, and third soul rings flashed one after another, as if simultaneously emitting a heavy, dark light. In an instant, streaks of dark red light disappeared into each of the Evil Emperor's tentacles.

The Seed of the Other Shore relentlessly devoured the life force within the Evil Emperor's tentacles, and branches and leaves grew from within the tentacles, constantly squeezing the eyeballs on them. Many eyeballs even burst open under the constant pressure, splashing out a viscous, dark red liquid.

Then, a deafening roar drowned out the sound of the surrounding waves, seawater splashed everywhere, and fragments of the broken tentacles scattered into the air along with the seawater.

"Roar--"

The Evil Emperor finally let out a painful roar. As the seawater receded, it was revealed that the Evil Emperor's body had become quite mangled. Countless gaps appeared on his tentacles, and large amounts of blood gushed out from those gaps, completely staining the seawater below red.

That was the real, blood-red color.

"Roar--"

With another roar, even the Evil Emperor himself didn't know whether it was anger or pain. With just one roar, tiny rays of light came from all directions from his still-movable tentacles, completely sealing off any gaps in his ability to dodge.

"Brother Lin—"

They seemed to have exchanged several blows, but it only lasted a few breaths. Chen Haisheng, who had just breathed a sigh of relief after blocking the Evil Emperor's attack, looked up and saw Lin Xiao trapped in a trap.

Just as he was about to do something, dozens, even hundreds or thousands of lights appeared around Lin Xiao. These lights seemed to have a life of their own, blocking all of the Evil Emperor's attacks.

To intercept the Evil Emperor's attack so precisely, Lin Xiao alone would naturally have to expend a lot of effort. But don't forget, his soul tool "Starry Sky" has each star with its own will.

Countless remnant souls surged out from the plane of the dead, pouring into those countless stars.

These remnant souls were collected by Lin Xiao from the battlefield of the ancient continental war. As a battle-hardened warrior, he instinctively met the Evil Emperor's attack.

In a place unseen by ordinary people, the Investiture of the Gods and the White Tiger appeared together, and the stars behind Lin Xiao, under the command of the two souls, were arranged in a neat formation like a battle array.

Chen Haisheng, who was standing to the side, had already widened his eyes.

He had heard Lin Xiao's description of soul tools and imagined many scenarios of soul tool battles, but he never thought that when Lin Xiao's soul tool actually appeared in front of him, it would bring him such a shocking feeling.

According to Lin Xiao's introduction, a continental war once took place on land. Chen Haisheng had never seen such a scene before and could not imagine what the battlefield must have looked like.

But now, looking at Lin Xiao in front of him, he seemed to see a corner of that great battle.

Lin Xiao didn't know what Chen Haisheng was thinking, nor did he really care. His gaze was fixed solely on the Evil Emperor before him.

The appearance of the stars caused the Evil Emperor to hesitate for a moment. He suddenly placed his hands in front of him and beside him. His eighth soul ring lit up, and the blood-red light fell on the surrounding spider lilies, making the flowers appear even more eerie.

The eighth soul skill, Blood Soul Grief.

Not far away, Chen Haisheng felt an invisible force flowing past him, like soul power, or spiritual power, or perhaps the result of the complete fusion of the two.

The sea princess and her daughter, who were lying in ambush beneath the surface just in case, didn't even have a chance to make a move before they were completely captivated by the scene before them. They were more sensitive to mental fluctuations and could better sense the mesmerizing aura emanating from it.
