Douluo Continent: Angel Saint Huo Yuhao

Chapter 139 Overthrowing the Stronghold
"Elder!"

The Great Holy Spirit gritted his teeth and forced himself to speak, despite the excruciating pain that pierced his very soul: "We two will never slacken our efforts... and will always keep your arrangements in mind!"

"correct…"

As if grasping at a straw, the Great Holy Spirit hurriedly looked up: "A quasi-spirit! We have cultivated a fifth-ring quasi-spirit during this period!"

"Oh?"

The withered old man's eyes lit up, and he withdrew his fingers, extinguishing the emerald flame: "Really?"

He was distressed that his own merits were not enough to qualify him for the next Ascension of the Main Altar, and he did not want to let go of any small achievement.

"Absolutely true!"

The Second Holy Spirit, who had already been half-burnt out of life, spoke in a hoarse voice, his eyes filled with a desperate desire to live: "It was that sixth Holy Servant! A few days ago, she came to meet her relatives and showed us her cultivation level... We even gave her a chance to sit on the altar!"

"Okay...okay!"

The elder helped the two up, a smile spreading across his almost skeletal face: "You two truly are my most valued disciples! You've only been gone a short while and you've already brought me such a wonderful surprise!"

"Thank you for your high regard, Elder..."

The two Holy Spirits exchanged a glance, then subconsciously glanced at the two figures behind the elder.

Unlike before, their robes were now adorned with more intricate patterns, but their auras were more sluggish, almost like puppets, only following the elders' movements.

Is it really a good thing to be valued by you?

……

"Are you leaving school again?"

The security guard glanced at Nana with some annoyance and tapped a few times on the screen in front of him: "Go and come back quickly... I don't know where you got so many leave slips from."

"Ah."

Nana nodded stiffly, trying her best not to look back, and walked quickly out of the guard's sight like a puppet.

If someone could see through the disguise, they would be able to see the string of people following behind her.

Huo Yuhao's second spirit ring was eventually increased to ten thousand years by Tianmeng, and the normal coverage range of the simulation skill was also improved, easily covering an area with a radius of five meters.

Let alone bringing five or six people, even squeezing in forty or fifty people wouldn't be a problem.

"What an amazing skill."

Jing Ziyan stroked the soul tool at her waist, looking around with a hint of envy.

With such an incredible skill, Huo Yuhao is practically a born Soul Master! Even the worst use of it is for assassination, silently sneaking up close and then firing a few fixed-position shells at the person's face.

"Theoretically, it can be learned later in life."

Ji Juechen's words were startling, but after everyone turned to look at him, Ye Wuqing continued, "But one's spiritual power cultivation must reach an inhuman level, literally."

"Almost~"

Huo Yuhao pointed to a patch of scattered light and shadow: "As long as one can reach the point where one can use mental power to distort external light and sound, and even parts of space, one can create similar skills..."

Halfway through his sentence, the divine essence hidden in his spiritual sea stirred, pointing in a certain direction with intense golden light.

'This feeling…'

Huo Yuhao covered his forehead, a sharp glint in his eyes: "Something's not right."

Clang!
The moment he opened his mouth, Yu Mengdi's longsword, radiating murderous intent, was held horizontally in front of Nana, startling her so much that she quickly hid behind Huo Yuhao.
"No, no... I don't know anything! I've been following you guys for the past few days, there's absolutely no way I could have passed on any information!"

"It's not her problem."

Huo Yuhao raised his hand to press down the sword's edge, releasing his spiritual power to sweep across the courtyard, flowing down the gaps in the mechanisms like water, enveloping the entire branch altar along the passageway.

Before long, several marked golden dots appeared in their minds.

Meanwhile, a black void, cleared from the detection area, remained in the center of the underground hall. "That guy... I'll handle him!"

……

"Zi~"

Strange noises emanated from the altar, which was shrouded in black mist. The flesh and blood and the wronged souls that the elder had thrown into the center suddenly stopped sinking, as if they had been disturbed by something.

"Ok?"

The green flame in the elder's eyes flickered slightly, and he raised his finger to probe the altar. At the same time, the second wave of anomalies also arrived.

The malevolent aura within the altar seemed to have encountered its natural enemy, instantly contracting and shrinking, causing the elder's pupils to constrict as well: "Attribute counter?"

In this world, what can so strongly restrain evil and vengeful spirits?

Only the sacred!

The elder subconsciously turned his head and looked at the passageway that surged into the dazzling light. The blood energy hidden deep within his body appeared along with his martial spirit, and his withered body quickly swelled up.

"You've chosen the path to heaven..."

Looking at the angelic soul master who had broken into the church but only possessed five soul rings, the elder's face contorted into a ferocious phantom, revealing fangs that emanated green energy.

Possessed by a vengeful spirit!

"...Hell has no gates, yet you barge in!"

Seven spirit rings, far exceeding the required configuration, flashed simultaneously, and the almost viscous spirit power fluctuations, carrying a terrifying aura, pressed down upon them.

"Humph~"

Yu Mengdi, having drawn the golden twin swords, curled the corner of her mouth. A powerful spiritual wave, mixed with soul power, surged over her shoulder, clashing head-on with the elder and unleashing an energy wave that shook the entire church.

"Shouldn't the people inside the church be spared?"

Huo Yuhao, his eyes shining brightly, strolled out, his spiritual burning domain encompassing the entire underground space of over 300 square meters in one go.

With this foolproof domain skill, they could render opponents below the sixth ring incapable of fighting without even exchanging blows, making it incredibly easy for them to get past the guards and arrive here.

"Yes. They are the so-called Holy Spirit... and the elders!"

Nana emerged from the shadows behind Huo Yuhao, her eyes turning bloodshot with hatred, especially when she saw the blackened flag in his hand, her resentment and hatred almost uncontrollable.

Even so, she still glanced at her own team with some concern: "Are you confident you can handle him?"

"perhaps?"

Huo Yuhao shrugged, his Heavenly Dream Soul Ring shone brightly, and his soul impact combined with mental interference was unleashed in an instant. In the elder's shocked and angry gaze, he kicked back the shout of "traitor" that Huo Yuhao was about to utter.

"Uh!"

Under the bombardment, the Soul Saint Elder was unharmed, but the four Holy Spirits standing in the corner were severely hit.

The two who were originally stationed here were in even worse condition. Their mental trauma, which had not yet healed, was aggravated by two times, and their breathing was almost scattered.

"Do it."

After firing the opening cannon, Huo Yuhao grinned and charged forward first, followed by several others who instantly found their opponents and divided the battlefield.

"You audacious brat!"

The elder finally let out a roar, lit up his first spirit ring, and swung his right arm, which swelled up to a height of three meters, unleashing a claw that shattered the air.

"Burn!"

Huo Yuhao opened his eyes and unleashed a punch imbued with blazing gold and fire.

The burning attribute that comes with the domain... and the light of the spirit!
