Douluo Continent: Building a Divine Kingdom Starting from the Spirit Hall

As Qian Daoliu stepped out of the Gate of Holy Light, he looked down at the crowd below, his gaze finally settling on his old rival, Tang Chen.

He had been waiting for this day for a long time.

"withdraw!"

Upon seeing Qian Daoliu descend, and especially the gate of holy light from which figures kept emerging, Tang Chen's expression changed drastically, and he decisively chose to retreat.

They are not ready for a decisive battle with the Spirit Empire, and it would be unwise to start a fight now.

Tang Hao and the others did not hesitate either. While signaling the Star Luo Emperor and the others to retreat, they unleashed their full power and prepared for battle.

Although they are not prepared for a decisive battle, with their current strength and lineup, it should not be difficult for them to escape unscathed.

"Little rabbit, we once formed an alliance with you soul beasts. Both sides got what they needed, and the cooperation was quite pleasant. But now you want to interfere in our internal disputes. Is your soul beast race going to break the alliance?"

Qian Daoliu did not immediately start fighting. Instead, he turned his gaze to Xiao Wu, who was standing beside Tang San. Looking at her alluring figure, he suppressed his strange feelings and questioned her.

This was that person's order, which also cut off the little rabbit's escape route, making it walk forward without hesitation.

Poor parents!

I only speak for myself!

Xiao Wu's face paled, but after glancing at Tang San beside her, she regained her resolve.

She and her third brother truly loved each other; their love was pure and transcended racial barriers. No matter the outcome, she would not regret it.

However, she will not involve the Soul Beast Clan, otherwise, with the current strength of the Martial Soul Empire, if it were to take action against the Star Dou Great Forest, it would inevitably be a disaster.

"A traitor?"

Qian Daoliu understood. This word "traitor" made Xiao Wu's face turn pale again, but she had no way to refute it.

Because of her past and present actions, she has indeed betrayed the soul beast race.

Even though her third brother did most of the work, she loved him and therefore had to bear the consequences for him.

"Keep them occupied, let's deal with Tang Chen first."

Without much talk, Qian Daoliu gestured to the Golden Crocodile Douluo and the others who had arrived with him, and then rushed towards his old rival, Tang Chen.

Tang Chen was not afraid at all, but when he saw the figure flying closely behind Qian Daoliu, he was greatly shocked.

Because that was Poseidon, the person she once loved most.

Did Xixi still join forces with the Spirit Empire?

That's right, Poseidon has also come this time, with the aim of killing Tang Chen, and it would be best if she could kill Tang San as well.

Accompanying them were Hailong and several others, who immediately unleashed their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Sea God's Descent.

A colossal phantom of a sea god materialized, treading upon the Lake of Life. It strengthened itself by harnessing the vast water elemental power within the lake, while simultaneously manipulating the lake water to transform into countless water dragons that crashed into the soul master teams of the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire.

Faced with the god-level combat power of the Sea God's descent, the Soul Master teams of the two empires were simply unable to resist. They were instantly scattered and swept into the lake, then crushed by the immense water pressure. Even a Title Douluo like Meng Shenji could not withstand that god-level power.

Only Avalanche and Emperor Xingluo were rescued in time, leaving them as lone commanders.

Tang San, Tang Hao, and the others wanted to go and provide support, but they were tied up by Jin E and his group and could not get away.

At the same time, Qian Daoliu and Poseidon joined forces to attack Tang Chen, showing no mercy and using all their killing moves, which instantly put Tang Chen at a disadvantage.

Compared to Qian Daoliu and Poseidon, who had cheat codes, Tang Chen was far behind. Although he had obtained the divine inheritance, his battle tactics were still simple and brutal burst types. At most, he could improve the original secret techniques of the Haotian Sect into divine skills.

However, this kind of power usage technique was still too weak against Thousand Paths and Poseidon. Although it was not full of loopholes, it was still quite passive.

Less than half a minute into the exchange, Poseidon plunged the Sea-Stabilizing Spear into Tang Chen's brow, shattering his soul and consciousness without holding back.

At the same time, two figures faintly appeared at the Gate of Holy Light, with divine power at the level of a god-king surging within them. This made the Asura God, who was observing from the divine realm, hesitant and did not show himself to save them.

On the other side, Golden Crocodile Douluo was also pressing Tang San. Although Tang San inherited the Sea God's position, the Destruction God's position refined by Golden Crocodile Douluo was not bad either. Moreover, he had also refined the body of the Destruction God, further enhancing the foundation of the divine artifact he possessed.

Although the artifact of the God of Destruction is not a super artifact, as the trusted and beloved general of the God of Destruction, the resources he possesses are naturally not lacking. The material of the artifact has reached the level of a super artifact, only the core is still somewhat lacking.

However, this was enough for the Golden Crocodile Greatsword, forged by Golden Crocodile Douluo, to clash head-on with Tang San's Blue Silver Overlord Spear.

Furthermore, Golden Crocodile Douluo spent more time refining his divine position and applied the power of the God of Destruction more perfectly, which was enough to suppress Tang San. Even with Xiao Wu's help, Tang San was still very passive and could be cleaved in two by Golden Crocodile Douluo at any time.

He swung his sword again with great force, sending Tang San flying and kicking Xiao Wu away in the process. Then he leaped up and unleashed a violent jumping slash, as if he wanted to kill Tang San on the spot.

As Tang San flew backward, he used the Eight Spider Lances to try his best to stabilize himself. Looking at the Golden Crocodile Douluo leaping down, he couldn't help but feel despair.

Wow! Absolutely amazing!

Whether it was the use of divine power or the explosive force of his body, his opponent far surpassed him. Although the Blue Silver Overlord Spear could withstand it, his body could not withstand that violent power.

Now, the skin on both hands is cracked from the shock, and blue-gold divine blood is flowing out. Both arms are sore and numb.

Although it had the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone, which had undergone a god-level evolution by devouring the Nine-Colored Blue Silver Tree, to aid in its repair, it still couldn't keep up with the speed of its injury.

Now I can't use my arms properly, I can't even lift them up to defend myself.

Am I going to die here?

I'm so unhappy!

"Who dares to hurt my son!"

On the other side, Tang Hao, who was fighting against the Demon-Slaying Douluo, saw his son in danger. He roared and shattered a divine ring behind him, turning it into a vast divine power that rushed into his body and forcibly enhanced his strength.

This is a refinement he made based on the Soul Ring Destruction Technique. The previous Soul Ring Destruction Technique could only destroy Soul Rings, at most God-level Soul Rings, but now, the improved and perfected Soul Ring Destruction Technique can be applied to the God Rings of deities.

The power of the divine ring far surpasses that of the soul ring, elevating Tang Hao's strength to a new level. After withstanding the attack of the Demon-Slaying Sword, he charged towards the Golden Crocodile Douluo in his leaping slash.

"Don't think you're the only one who can blow things up, I can too!"

Facing the charging Tang Hao, Golden Crocodile Douluo was not afraid at all. He also shattered a divine ring and poured his vast divine power into the Golden Crocodile Greatsword in his hand, slashing down fiercely at the charging Tang Hao.

This attack made Tang Hao feel the threat of death and realize that he absolutely could not withstand it.

Ultimately, his position as the God of War was inferior to that of the God of Destruction. His previous position as the God of War was merely the peak of a second-level god. Even after he elevated it to the level of a first-level god, he could only barely reach the threshold. It was incomparable to a peak first-level god like the God of Destruction.

Secondly, there is the difference in the magical artifacts they possess; the gap in this aspect is still enormous, to the point that it is practically incomparable.

Realizing he couldn't withstand this attack, Tang Hao yelled at his son, "Run!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the golden crocodile greatsword slashed down, cleaving the fist encased in heavy gauntlets, and then his entire body was split in two.

"No!"

This scene made Tang San's eyes widen in fury. He wanted to go and help, but Xiao Wu, who had rushed over, grabbed him in a princess carry and then used teleportation to escape.

Xiao Wu naturally didn't care whether Tang Hao lived or died; in fact, she was even a little happy about it. However, she couldn't let her third brother pay for it with his life.

At this point, retreat was necessary, while simultaneously thinking of the power of the Asura God.

It is obvious that with the power of the Sea God alone, Third Brother cannot compete with the powerhouses of the Spirit Empire; he needs to possess the power of a God-King.

"withdraw!"

On the other side, Tang Xiao watched his grandfather and younger brother die one after another. Although he was extremely grief-stricken and angry, he could only roar and shatter the divine ring to force his opponent back.

Upon hearing this, the others did not linger in the fight and abandoned their opponents to retreat.

They suffered a loss this time, mainly because they didn't have enough manpower. Zhu Zhuqing and a few others stayed behind at the military camp to keep watch, which put them at a disadvantage in terms of numbers and put them on the defensive.

"No need to chase after them!"

Seeing that Tang Xiao and the others had escaped, Qian Daoliu did not pursue them.

I'm here today only to put further pressure on those people; it's not time for the final showdown yet.

Moreover, the results were already quite good; not only did they kill Tang Chen, they also cleaved Tang Hao in two.

"He has lost a bit of his soul."

The golden crocodile carried Tang Hao, whose body had been split in two, towards them. In its left hand, it used divine power to imprison a divine soul, which was none other than Tang Hao's divine soul.

His sword strike just now only split Tang Hao's soul in two. About one-third of it escaped, and this is the other third. As for the last third, it was annihilated by the power of the god of destruction when it was struck.

"return!"

After receiving the sealed soul, Qian Daoliu glanced at Tang Chen, who lay dead with his eyes wide open, then turned and flew towards the Gate of Holy Light, intending to hand over Tang Hao's soul to that person so that he could settle things once and for all.

Soon, Ah Yin in the divine kingdom received Tang Hao's divine soul sent by Qian Daoliu, broke the seal, and allowed it to manifest as Tang Hao's phantom.

"A Yin!"

Tang Hao stared blankly at the stunningly beautiful woman before him, the woman who haunted his dreams.

Wasn't Ah Yin dead?

How could he still be alive?

“I was saved by Xiao Haozi and resurrected. I know everything you’ve done over the years.”

As Ah Yin spoke, she slowly drew the Blue Silver Overlord Sword.

It's time to put an end to the past!

Tang Hao, regaining his senses, opened his mouth as if to say something, but didn't know how.

Regardless of the reason, he did do those things, and he has put himself in opposition to Ah Yin.

"Did you have any last words?"

As she drew the Blue Silver Overlord Sword and pointed it directly at Tang Hao's soul, Ah Yin's coldness deepened.

"I have no last words, only regrets. If I had stayed in the Blue Silver Forest back then, perhaps our ending would have been different."

Tang Hao closed his eyes with regret, quietly awaiting death.

There's nothing more to say now that things have come to this. Being able to die at Ah Yin's hands is my own good fortune.

Ah Yin didn't say anything more and prepared to finish him off with the Blue Silver Overlord Sword, but her delicate hand holding the hilt was enveloped by a large hand.

"Your hands are not meant to be stained with blood."

Holding Ah Yin in his arms, Tian Hao wanted Ah Yin to settle things from back then and let go of that knot in her heart, but he didn't want Ah Yin to do it herself, as that wouldn't be good for her cultivation of the Way of Life.

He was also worried that this would become a new knot in Ah Yin's heart, after all, this older sister was too kind-hearted.

"It's you!"

Upon hearing that familiar voice, Tang Hao looked up with a look that made his eyes widen in fury and his teeth clenched in hatred.

He hated two people the most in his life: his inhuman brother-in-law and the man who broke him and Ah Yin up.

"Second brother-in-law, how have you been?"
