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

Even a god wouldn't have that kind of power!

"Elder Long, how much do you know about the Crimson Dragon martial soul?"

After reading the intelligence report several times, Lin Huiqun turned her gaze to Long Xiaoyao, who was the top dragon-type martial soul master in the world and should know something about this.

Everyone looked at Long Xiaoyao. They knew that the Rouge Dragon Martial Soul was a rare top-tier Martial Soul, no less powerful than the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, possessing a strong annihilation power, but they didn't know the specifics.

"I've heard a bit about it. The Crimson Dragon is a mutated martial soul, and its annihilation power can destroy everything, second only to the destructive power of the Purple Radiance Annihilation Dragon martial soul of the Sun Moon Empire's royal family..."

After thinking for a moment, Long Xiaoyao reported what he knew.

As a dragon-type martial soul master, he naturally had an understanding of all dragon-type martial souls in the world, and even sought them out for sparring when he was young. Mu En was one of his sparring partners back then.

He had fought against the Rouge Dragon Soul Master of that generation, and that annihilation power was indeed very powerful, but he never expected that the annihilation power could be applied to the sun.

We absolutely cannot let them succeed!

Yan Shaozhe said resolutely, "Although I don't know what that person wants to do with the sun, the very idea of ​​an artificial sun is terrifying."

They absolutely cannot be allowed to succeed, otherwise Shrek's future will be even more difficult.

“We do not have the power to take action again. Right now, we are just holding that person in a neutral position and will not directly intervene in the struggle between empires. Otherwise, Dai Hao would not have made a move at all.”

Lin Huiqun glared at him, then helplessly revealed the true nature of things today.

Despite Dai Hao's impressive display of courage, it is mainly based on the fact that the other party maintains a neutral stance. Once that party intervenes in the war between empires, their side has no chance of winning.

If someone can produce an electromagnetic soul tool, they can produce an even more powerful one. That person is already shaping a new era.

To put it bluntly, these people are just fighting like cornered beasts, hoping that the divine realm will eventually intervene.

As for going to confront that person directly, that would be suicide.

His face darkened, but Yan Shaozhe did not refute it, because it was the truth.

Even with that lineup last time, they couldn't kill that person, let alone now. Going back would just be feeding them kills.

This is the helplessness of the weak; now we can only wait and see how the sea god of the divine realm will handle it.

"I hope you all recognize the current situation and our status as the weak. Right now, there is only one word—delay. Delay until the gods of the divine realm take action, just like they wiped out the Martial Soul Divine Kingdom ten thousand years ago, and crush and eliminate the alliance that he created."

Everyone, behave yourselves, especially you old rascal, don't cause us any more trouble.

Lin Huiqun glanced at everyone and gave a stern warning, finally glaring at Xuanzi.

As a weakling, one must be aware of one's weakness. Xuanzi clearly did not have this before, otherwise he would not have provoked the soul beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest at such a critical time, causing them to be attacked from both sides.

Xuanzi lowered his head, filled with guilt and remorse.

But he realized it too late, and now no amount of regret can undo the damage.

"We also need to prepare early. The city walls and electromagnetic soul guides alone cannot defend against god-level powerhouses. If the battle goes against us, we need to make a strategic retreat, preserve our strength, and wait for the opportunity to revive."

Not wanting to embarrass Xuanzi, Yan Shaozhe offered a suggestion.

The previous arrangements made by the Douling Emperor had deeply impressed him. Their Shrek Academy was actually in a similar situation to the Douling Emperor, both being watched by powerful enemies. If things were not going well, a strategic retreat to preserve their strength might be a good option.

“Shao Zhe is right. Xuan Zi, I’m entrusting this matter to you. Dig the tunnel deeper for me.”

Lin Huiqun nodded, agreeing with the suggestion.

As I said before, the weak should have the awareness of the weak. It is not shameful to run away from the strong. It is foolish and tragic to sacrifice oneself in the heat of the moment.

If they had prepared more tunnels last time, the casualties wouldn't have been so high.

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Xuanzi stood up and solemnly agreed. Before his martial soul evolved, it was the Taotie Divine Ox. The Taotie's main attribute was devouring, but the Divine Ox's main attribute was earth.

Although his martial soul evolved into Taotie with the help of Elder Mu, he did not lose the earth-attribute soul power he had cultivated for many years, which is now perfect for digging holes deep underground.

The group continued their discussion for a while before dispersing. Finally, Lin Huiqun called Yan Shaozhe back.

"Shao Zhe, become a god as soon as possible. I am not suited to sit in this position, nor can I hold it for long."

Lin Huiqun said wearily that she really didn't want to take charge of the Sea God Pavilion, especially given the current situation.

If she continues to work so hard, she might have to end her life prematurely.

"I won't keep you waiting long."

After bowing respectfully, Yan Shaozhe turned and left the Sea God Pavilion. Instead of going straight home, he went to Feng Ling's place.

Elder Long is right. I have no other choice but to become a god as soon as possible.

At the same time, Long Xiaoyao also went to Feng Ling's residence to do ideological work for her.

"This is the plan for becoming a god that Mu En once revealed. I have no hope for it, but you still have hope. I know that you and Shao Zhe had a falling out back then and have been separated for a hundred years, but you must still have him in your heart, otherwise you wouldn't have come to Shrek with me."

"As long as you live a good life with Shao Zhe, I can give you the primordial power of the God of Darkness within me to help you become a god..."

“I understand what the Grand Master means. My cooperation with Zhongli Wu back then was only based on mutual benefit, and there was no real love between us. I am also willing to reconcile with Shao Zhe, but Shao Zhe is hostile towards me.”

Feng Ling was quite tempted. She hadn't been happy in the Holy Spirit Cult before, and she felt increasingly lonely. In particular, she and Zhong Liwu had no children, which made her increasingly resistant to that marriage. She even worried that one day Zhong Liwu would devour her for a breakthrough.

That's why she followed Long Xiaoyao to Shrek Academy.

Although she only spent three months with Yan Shaozhe back then, it was the happiest time of her life, and it was also her first love, which she still hasn't forgotten even after hundreds of years.

"It's good that you agree. I'll talk to Shao Zhe about it."

Long Xiaoyao nodded in satisfaction, then looked towards the door, already sensing his grandson's arrival.

"What exactly is the relationship between you, me, and that woman?"

Yan Shaozhe walked in, glanced at Feng Ling, and then looked at Long Xiaoyao, asking the question that had been buried in his heart for a long time.

He had a strange feeling when he first saw Long Xiaoyao. During the ambush last time, when that woman unleashed her full power, his Bright Phoenix Martial Soul resonated with her, which meant that she also had a Bright Phoenix Martial Soul.

This puzzled him, as he couldn't understand what his relationship with these two people was.

After a moment of silence, Long Xiaoyao picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea, and gestured for Yan Shaozhe to sit down.

"This story begins when Mu En and I first met Xi Shui..."

She recounted the events of that year, from how she met Xishui to how she fell in love with her, and then the series of ridiculous and tragic changes.

This revelation left not only Yan Shaozhe speechless, but also Feng Ling, who was standing nearby, dumbfounded.

She never expected that the Supreme Elder was a dual-spirit possessor, and a Phoenix of Light at that, with bloodlines remaining outside the body—it was terrifying.

"Xi Shui was not in control of her own destiny back then. We were too stupid to see through the shadows hidden behind her, which led to the situation escalating to such an extent and drove her to the extreme of madness."

In the end, Long Xiaoyao was filled with guilt and self-reproach.

He was so stupid and pretentious back then.

He came looking for her because he was unwilling to lose Xishui, but after having a relationship with her, he couldn't face Mu En and ran away alone, leaving Xishui to face Mu En alone, which led to the tragedy that followed.

Although Xi Shui's actions were motivated by ulterior motives, he did indeed like him, and it was he who let Xi Shui down.

Yan Shaozhe's mind was buzzing. He was actually the grandson of the former leader of the Holy Spirit Cult, the Death God Douluo who had killed countless people.

How can this be?

"Some of the evil spirit masters in the Holy Spirit Cult are corrupted by their own will, while others are influenced by their martial spirits. Feng Ling is the latter. She is not inherently bad, otherwise you two wouldn't have fallen in love back then..."

Long Xiaoyao pressed his advantage, expressing his approval of Feng Ling as his granddaughter-in-law, especially since her martial spirit was similar to Shao Zhe's and could represent two extremes.

Once he merges with his own dark origin, he will be able to mutate and evolve into a dark phoenix, which will help Shao Zhe cultivate and even become a god, following the path he and Mu En took back then.

With the insights they gained from Xi Shui, the two have a great chance of becoming gods.

As he spoke, he gave Fengling a wink. Fengling understood, got up, moved over and sat down next to Yan Shaozhe, and took his hand.

Although Yan Shaozhe still harbored some resistance, he ultimately did not refuse.

Leaving aside Long Xiaoyao's deception, outside Maple Leaf City, the second solar furnace was finally successfully built and put into use, creating a new fission sun.

Tian Hao then placed the knock-off version of the giant clock on top of the solar furnace, controlling the furnace to maintain the stability of the fission sun inside while using its enormous energy to run the clock at full power.

"It's improved a lot!"

Sensing the rapid increase in computing power obtained from the giant clock, the Orange Girls were both excited and shocked.

While they have limitations in using computing power to enhance themselves, their limits are much higher when using it externally. For example, when unleashing external soul skills, they can use computing power to enhance their abilities beyond their own control limits.

The happiest person was Xu Tianzhen, who could feel the power inside the No. 2 Solar Furnace even more, and could even absorb it directly after filtration, which would definitely be much better than the power of heaven and earth and the power of elements.

With this second solar furnace, my cultivation speed will definitely increase by at least ten times.

"teacher!"

Vina's eyes were red, clearly she had been crying earlier.

She had received news that her country was gone, and her father and relatives had all died tragically.

Behind them, a group of soul masters from the Heavenly Soul Empire and the Fighting Spirit Empire were filled with resentment. If they didn't need to protect the Second Solar Furnace Project here, they would have already gone back to take revenge.

"Revenge is secondary; the key is to protect the survivors."

Raising his hand, Tian Hao lightly touched the girl's hair, then connected to the large clock behind him. A spatial ripple expanded at an unimaginable speed, teleporting those he sensed who could become his own people over, including those from the Earth Dragon Gate.

After spending a day completing these tasks, Tian Hao opened an ultra-long-range spatial portal, leading directly to Shrek City.

He stepped out and stood above Shrek City, followed closely by Vina and the others, who looked down at Shrek City with hatred in their eyes.

At the same time, Long Xiaoyao and Xuanzi also noticed the arrival of Tian Hao and the others immediately and quickly issued an alarm. Everyone in Shrek Academy slid down the nearest passage into the depths of the earth.

Long Xiaoyao and Xuanzi didn't dare to linger and slid into the depths of the underground passage to hide.

There was no other way; they had no chance of winning against that person. Rather than die in vain, they might as well run away and save their lives.

Only by preserving one's life can one have a future. Moreover, when facing a peerless genius who can even kill the avatar of the Sea God, running away is not shameful.

Tian Hao ignored the people's escape and simply moved Elder Zhuang, who possessed the Tree of Life Martial Soul, to Maple Leaf City to be kept under guard.

Immediately, he stretched out his palm, and the super computing power of the giant clock combined with his own soul power merged into the surrounding space, guiding the space to compress from a three-dimensional form to a two-dimensional form.

That's right, he is the two-dimensional foil in the knock-off Three-Body universe.

He didn't know how the two-dimensional foil was made, but with his current understanding and control of space, he could create a similar effect, temporarily reducing three-dimensional space to a two-dimensional plane.

If someone were at Shrek Academy right now, they would notice that the sky seems to have lowered.

What Vina and the others who followed saw was that everything in Shrek Academy was being compressed in height. The teaching buildings were slowly getting shorter and even overlapping, and the ground was slowly sinking until it stopped after sinking hundreds of meters.

Then Tian Hao reached out and beckoned, and a lifelike flat painting floated up.
