Douluo Continent: Breaking the Million-Year Barrier, the Golden Ranking Exposes Me

Chapter 69 Martial Soul Fusion Skill, First Place

"Boom boom boom!"

The chaotic light at the top of the list completely faded, revealing its true form.

It is neither a specific form nor a dazzling display of light and shadow.

Instead, it is a "nothingness" that is constantly being created and destroyed, seemingly carrying endless time and space!
Within this "nothingness," the shadows of a dragon and a roc can be vaguely seen intertwining and swirling.

The dragon's shadow was ethereal, as if it were moving between reality and illusion.

The roc's shadow is vast, its wings like clouds hanging from the sky, encompassing the universe!

[Douluo Continent Martial Soul Fusion Skill Ranking, Number One: Universal Return to Ruins - Exile to Myriad Realms!]

[Fused Martial Souls: Void Dragon (Lu Youyou), Kunpeng (Lu Lingtian) - Star Dou Great Forest]

[Skill Assessment: The bloodline resonance and ultimate fusion of the Space Supreme and Devouring Supreme! This skill transcends the levels of energy and matter, directly targeting the fundamental laws of "space" and "existence" of the universe. Unfolding the "Return to Nothingness Domain," within which the spacetime structure is completely disrupted, stripped away, and even reduced to nothingness! It can forcibly banish a designated target (a single entity or region) and its concept of existence to unknown spacetime turbulence or a void of rules, severing all connections with the current world. Overall, ranked first.]

[Rewards: Soul Beast's lifespan increased by 30,000 years; significantly deepened comprehension of the laws of space and devouring; two random divine skills; Bloodline Awakening +20%; increased stability and controllability of the "Universal Ruins" domain; ability to briefly summon "Space-Time Anchors" to stabilize its current space-time (extremely long cooldown); and one "World Stone Fragment" of unknown quality (containing miniature world rules).]

silence!

A deathly silence enveloped the entire Douluo Continent!
A good dozen or so breaths passed.

A deafening uproar erupted like a tsunami!
"Number One? Universal Ruins? Exile from All Realms?"

"Lu Youyou? Lu Lingtian? Isn't that someone who was on the Soul Beast Ranking before? How can he use a human Martial Soul Fusion Technique!"

"Soul beasts? Transformed soul beasts? Could their true form be a martial soul?"

"This Martial Soul Fusion Skill... can it really slay a god?"

crazy!

The whole continent has gone mad!
If the previous rankings were still within the comprehension of human soul masters, then this number one completely reveals another side of the world.

The unfathomable depths and terrors belonging to the soul beasts.

It was laid bare before everyone!

It possesses a martial spirit that has never been heard of before!
Its fusion technique is actually an ultimate power that involves the rules of the universe and can threaten or even banish gods!

Moreover, as a soul beast, it is outrageous that it can actually use a human's martial soul fusion technique!
Shrek Academy, Poseidon Pavilion.

The deathly silence lasted for a long time before being broken by Xuanzi's heavy breathing.

Yan Shaozhe's face was pale. As the dean of the Martial Soul Department, he had always taken it upon himself to cultivate top-notch Soul Masters and was proud of it.

But at this moment, his beliefs were challenged like never before.

"Teacher, Elder Xuan, have we been too focused on the internal struggles and development of humanity, while neglecting the terrifying potential of the soul beast world, which far exceeds our imagination?"

"These two soul beasts... this power has completely overturned the power structure of the continent."

Old Zhuang's hand, stroking his beard, trembled slightly as he slowly said, "It seems that the Golden List ranked their fusion technique first not merely because of its power description."

"More importantly, it represents a certain level and has future potential; banishing everything... may not be an exaggeration."

Moon slowly opened his eyes, which had been tightly closed, his gaze as deep as an ancient well.

But upon closer inspection, a lingering sense of solemnity is also hidden deep within.

He spoke slowly, his voice carrying a sense of world-weariness and weight: "Gentlemen, there is no need to underestimate yourselves. Yuhao and Dong'er's talents are still one in a million, and their future is equally limitless."

"But... this golden list is like a mirror, reflecting the truth that we have never seen, or rather, deliberately ignored—the waters of Douluo Continent are much deeper and wider than we imagined."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over each of the elders, his tone becoming extremely serious.

"Issue my order: Shrek Academy shall immediately enter a state of 'seclusion' and refrain from participating in continental conflicts unless absolutely necessary."

"All students and teachers are prohibited from provoking any entity related to the Star Dou Great Forest. At the same time, the 'Torch Relay Project' will be launched to organize, copy, and distribute all the books on top-tier martial souls, soul tools, and even ancient secrets."

"We need time, we need to re-understand the world, and we also need to... preserve the spark for possible changes that we cannot understand."

All the elders solemnly obeyed the order.

They all understood that Moon's decision meant Shrek would adopt the most conservative and cautious strategy.

Faced with an absolute disparity in power, concealing one's abilities and biding one's time is the way to survive.

The Holy Spirit Cult. Unlike the solemnity of Shrek Academy.

A deathly silence, bordering on despair, permeated the Holy Spirit Church.

Zhongli Wu slumped on the leader's throne, his eyes vacant, as if all his energy had been drained away.

He originally planned to take advantage of the exposure of the Golden List to stir up trouble, and even unite with the Sun Moon Empire to realize the Holy Church's ambitions step by step.

But now, all the plans have become a ridiculous joke.

"Soul beasts can also use Soul Fusion Techniques. The number one on the list is Banished..."

He muttered to himself, his voice hoarse.

"We schemed against Moon, we schemed against Shrek Academy, we schemed against the Sun Moon Empire!"

"But in the end, everything we've schemed for is probably nothing more than a chessboard in the eyes of the soul beast race..."

Long Xiaoyao stood by the window, his back to the two of them.

He gazed in the direction of the Starry Sky Forest, remaining silent.

His heart was also filled with turbulent waves.

He had thought that he and Moon had reached the pinnacle of humanity, and that the appearance of the Golden List would only be icing on the cake.

But now he understands what the so-called pinnacle is.

Perhaps it's just the foot of another, even higher mountain.

The number one on the list of Martial Soul Fusion Skills.

That was a level of power that he could not understand at all, and could not even reach.

Noumenon Sect, inside the secret room.

Du Bu Si stared at the terrifying description of "Universal Ruins" on the list of treasures.

He recalled the fleeting yet unsettling spatial fluctuations he had sensed earlier, emanating from the direction of the Starry Sky Forest.

He slammed his fist into the wall, leaving a deep fist mark.

"A soul beast! A soul beast actually won first place! Soul beasts can even use martial soul fusion techniques?"

Poison Undying growled.

His face was filled with absurdity and bewilderment.

"In all my years, I've never heard of anyone being able to use fusion techniques with their own kind!"

"Is this still a soul beast?"

He was panting heavily, and his eyes showed not only resentment but also a sense of bewilderment at having his understanding of the world turned upside down.

"Our Body Sect studies the treasures of the human body, believing that reaching the ultimate level is the path to heaven."

"But these soul beasts... what path are they taking? And who exactly are these two guys?"

An unprecedented sense of crisis and a vague thirst for knowledge intertwined in his heart.

He realized that there was no traditional path to cultivation.

It seems that there are broader and more unbelievable possibilities.

Huo Yuhao stared blankly at the list of successful candidates, his mind almost completely blank.

"Number one Soul Beast, Banished..."

These words kept echoing in his mind.

He originally thought that he and Dong'er possessing four martial soul fusion skills was already a heaven-defying feat, enough to shock the continent.

But now it seems.

Their proud achievements pale in comparison to this ultimate power known as "Universal Ruins".

It seemed so... insignificant.
