Douluo Continent: I, Huo Yuhao, am the Master of Spirit.

Chapter 531 God-Slaying Fixed-Position Soul-Guided Cannonball, Chen Hanhai's Swan Song.

"Extremely high-level soul power reaction detected!!"

"Warning! I repeat, the Ice Silkworm satellite has detected an extremely high energy level reaction!"

Tonight will be a sleepless night for many, as that earth-shattering super explosion is destined to be recorded in history!

This was especially true for the Xilu City Satellite Research Center, where Xuan Ziwen was awakened at two in the morning.

The magic network lit up automatically, and alarm notifications from the center kept ringing in the room, urging him to hurry to the Xilu City Satellite Detection Center.

He is now a senior researcher at the Xilu City Satellite Research Center, with considerable authority and numerous projects under his supervision.

He also brought along quite a few research interns, all of whom were excellent candidates. He planned to take them to the Federation for exchange and study in a month.

In fact, there was no need for the magic network to notify anyone; no one could possibly ignore that blue-white energy beam shooting into the sky.

Beneath the silent curtain, the light momentarily illuminated half of the Douluo Continent as if it were daytime, and within just ten minutes, the mental energy of almost all the powerful figures on the entire continent was thrown into disarray.

Because no matter how you try to perceive it, the energy reaction on the east side of the continent is like a sun illuminating all the space of perception. In front of the sun, those insignificant fireflies will naturally not be perceived.

Xuan Ziwen quickly put on a white coat and glasses, went to the second-floor terrace of the villa, and leaned on the railing with both hands. The blue and white light was still very strong even in Xilu City.

The light shone on his face, casting shadows on his features with the strands of hair on his forehead. Xuan Ziwen muttered to himself, his eyes shining brightly.

"The sky was illuminated; this powerful earthquake may have reached Tianhai City of the Sun Moon Empire!"

"The entire continent could probably feel this tremor."

"This level of energy reaction—considering only the energy scale—is even more terrifying than Di Tian's Rainbow Claw back then."

Judging from the location, it's the Southern Empire of Douling. What exactly happened there?

After glancing briefly at the light, he leaped down from the second floor. How could a Soul Master possibly take the stairs?

Such behavior is strictly prohibited in public places in Xilu City because it could hit ordinary people, but there are not so many restrictions at home.

Xuan Ziwen lives near the research center. This area is a residential area built specifically for researchers. Although it is not luxurious, it has all the necessary infrastructure.

The researchers are paid very high salaries; even interns receive a monthly stipend of 5,000 Dream Coins, placing them undoubtedly among the highest-income earners in the Tiandou Plain.

Not only do they have extremely high incomes, but they also enjoy high status; no matter which city they visit, researchers are always treated as honored guests.

Even after leaving the Tiandou Plain, their status remained unchanged, with the Xingluo Empire and Tianhun Empire willing to pay exorbitant prices for them to settle down there.

The major chambers of commerce and factories are also eagerly awaiting the researchers from Xilu City; money has never been an issue.

Although the researchers are wealthy, almost all of them still choose to live in this residential area.

Birds of a feather flock together; people of similar backgrounds tend to group together. You can easily encounter experts or even authorities in a certain field by just walking around here.

Compared to the outside world, this place is a paradise for scholars. People like Wang Yan even bought houses here.

"Teacher! The Earth Research Institute says that earthquakes of varying magnitudes have occurred across the mainland. Has something happened?"

Xuan Ziwen rubbed Keke's head and said, "It won't affect you. Go and organize the data with Zimu and the others."

"I'll go to the center to see what's going on."

The petite girl named Keke nodded and immediately went to find the other graduate students under Xuan Ziwen.

Keke was one of the first trainee researchers from Mingde Hall to come to Xilu City with Xuan Ziwen.

She was also a good friend of Orange's, but they haven't been in touch for a long time. They only exchange greetings during holidays.

Xuan Ziwen quickly arrived at the satellite detection center, where the silver-white cool color scheme gave the place a futuristic feel.

The various types of advanced soul tools here are not much different from real science fiction to the outside world.

As soon as he entered, a middle-aged man with a gleaming bald head, who looked like a research whiz, walked towards him.

"Ziwen! You've finally arrived."

Xuan Ziwen didn't say anything polite. There were very few special rules here at the research center; it was a research environment specially created by Huo Yuhao.

"Director Chen, what exactly happened in the Southern Empire of Douling?"

Director Chen shrugged helplessly and said, "It's hard to explain in just a few words."

"To put it another way, it's like a god-killing fixed-position soul-guided cannonball being detonated inside Lingdou City in the Southern Empire of Douling!"

According to the old soul guidance classification system, this is equivalent to a level 12 fixed-position soul guidance cannon shell.

The concept of a god-killing fixed-position soul-guided projectile was not unfamiliar to the research center. Huo Yuhao had given them a lot of technology from the future, including the extraction technology of the metal source.

The metal source is the core of the god-killing fixed-position soul-guided cannonball. In this universe, every metal contains a substance called the source. The so-called forging is a process of refining and changing the source.

If these sources are combined in a certain arrangement, they can unleash extremely terrifying energy.

According to a joint study by the Xilu City Research Center and the Federal Research Center, the so-called source is energy that is highly compressed and transformed into matter.

The accumulation of these substances causes elemental turbulence and fission reactions.

To put it bluntly, the so-called god-killing fixed-position soul-guided projectile technology is just a super-compressed soul-guided fission projectile.

The manifestations are similar, both involving high-energy clouds and ultra-high-energy radiation. However, the God-Slaying Fixed-Mount Soul-Guided Projectile technology has been widely criticized by researchers in Xilu City and the Federation as a blatant conspiracy.

Because the rare metals consumed by a single god-killing fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell are astronomical, three of them would be enough to bring the entire continent's industry and soul-guided research to a complete standstill.

If anyone were to use rare metals to make this thing, these researchers would laugh at them for the rest of their lives; it would be a losing proposition.

Using metal source technology to make artillery shells would be a waste of its potential. The extracted metal source is extremely stable under magnetic confinement and can be used as the core of fusion.

This technology should be the key to opening the door to a new era, not used to create grand fireworks.

Although researchers are condemning the god-killing fixed-position soul-guided cannon as a conspiracy, no one denies its power.

Even someone as powerful as Di Tian would probably be dead if he took a hit head-on.

Upon hearing the director describe the power of the fixed-mounted soul-guided cannon as god-slaying, Xuan Ziwen gasped, his gaze becoming extremely solemn.

"Did the Southern Empire's experiment go wrong, or have they gone mad? Lingdou City—no, I mean the Lingdou Plain—has been razed to the ground!"

"They couldn't possibly have the technology to extract metal from its source; didn't we block that technology?"

Director Chen shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be; it has nothing to do with the metal source."

"This technology is only passed down within our organization. Even if outsiders knew the relevant knowledge, they would not be able to manufacture a centrifugal compressor that meets the standards."

"Satellite data shows that a major battle just broke out in Lingdou City. One side is Chen Hanhai, and the other side is unknown."

"Chen Hanhai used some unknown ability to trigger this explosion; perhaps it was a suicide attack?"

"The specific situation is unknown, which is why we called you over. All data and images have been recorded."

The order from above is that we must figure out how Chen Hanhai did it, and someone needs to give a report at the 05 meeting next week.

Xuan Ziwen didn't care about the situation on the mainland. When he heard that the data and images were available, his eyes lit up. He was also curious about what level a Soul Master would have to reach to launch an attack of this level.

"Okay, I'll go take a look first."

The director nodded and said, "You're the only one left. They've already started discussing it."

"It's incredibly noisy inside right now, just like a vegetable market. Be careful not to get into a fight, the equipment here is ridiculously expensive."

Xuan Ziwen smiled helplessly; he was already used to this kind of scene.

That's how scientific research works. Before there's solid proof, no one will admit defeat, and everyone seems ready to fight. But it's precisely in these arguments that the real theories are slowly revealed.

At this moment, Lingdou City had been razed to the ground. Contrary to the speculation that the entire Lingdou Plain had disappeared, Chen Hanhai used his divine sense to limit the scope of the explosion, and most of the energy shot into the sky.

The entire Lingdou City, including the surrounding mountains, vanished. The earth itself sank three hundred meters downwards, its deepest point almost bottomless. Its power was enough to make any weapon pale in comparison.

It looked as if a naughty child had scribbled on a map with an eraser, and anyone who looked at it couldn't help but feel horrified.

The two god-killing fixed-position soul-guided cannons from the God of Emotions' spacetime turned Shrek Academy's core Sea God Lake into a giant crater thousands of feet deep, an absurd figure of nearly three thousand meters.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

Chen Hanhai's attack could achieve a similar effect, as he deliberately limited the range, allowing his divine sense to reach this level.

As Amon set foot on this land, still warm from the heat, he couldn't help but exclaim, "How terrifying!"

"I never expected the clan leader to have such a trump card; its power is enough to kill a god."

"To protect Tang San, many of Amon were directly reduced to ashes."

Amon's spiritual power expanded and spread downwards, sensing a large number of life reactions at a distance of two hundred meters; those were the residents of Lingdou City.

"Even if it costs you your own life, you're going to use your divine sense to protect the Sea God family and its people? Clan leader, you bastard."

At the core of this giant pit, or basin, Amon sensed a faint energy reaction—Chen Hanhai's energy reaction.
