Douluo Continent: We agreed on a simulation, but they've come to life?

The Fifth Elder had one hand behind his back, a miniature Ten Thousand Souls Banner swirling slightly in his palm, his eyes filled with astonishment and solemnity as he stared intently at the gate where dust and mist were swirling.

Beside him, the four-meter-tall mountain of flesh also stood up, its small eyes equally filled with solemnity.

They managed to break into this place without them noticing, and judging from the commotion outside, it seems that all the Holy Spirit Cult disciples left behind at the altar have been killed.

His aged face twitched involuntarily.

It had been a long time since I had felt such pressure.

"You two seem to be having a very leisurely time. While the front lines are in the midst of fierce fighting, you are enjoying yourselves here."

A mocking voice rang out, causing the two men's expressions to shift dramatically. Too young…

The next instant, as the young man's figure slowly emerged from the dust and mist, the two men's expressions changed completely.

Even they couldn't see through the newcomer's cultivation level at this moment.

Lu Cheng glanced at the two men with a mocking look in his eyes, then shook his head. "The Holy Spirit Cult is indeed a bunch of rats in the gutter, unable to stand the sunlight. Look at how strangely you all look, no wonder you dare not go out, you're afraid of scaring people."

His previously smiling face gradually darkened.

He hates it when people talk like that.

However, now that he has the power, no one dared to say such things to him before, but now...

"Boy, who exactly are you? State your name. I never kill nameless nobodies!" The Fifth Elder narrowed his eyes and coldly sized up Lu Cheng, his soul power fluctuations becoming increasingly obvious.

"Is that so? Then I'll remember that."

Lu Cheng curled his lips into a warm smile.

"Noumenon Sect."

"Lu Cheng!"

"Pfft!"

Wanhun Douluo's pupils suddenly contracted, and he spat out blood. He turned his head in astonishment, only to see that the Sixth Elder was even more dumbfounded. His thick arm had somehow pierced through his chest cavity.

It was just a hair's breadth away from the heart.

"Tsk, what a pity."

Lu Cheng shook his head regretfully. Although the mental control effect of the double pupils was already quite extraordinary, it was still impossible to achieve 100% control over a Title Douluo, leaving a slight loophole.

"What a bizarre skill... No, he's a spirit-type soul master!" Wan Hun Douluo clutched the bloody hole in his chest, his face pale, staring viciously at Lu Cheng's still calm face.

But a smile gradually appeared on his face.

"You little beast, what did I take for a trick? I've broken your mental illusion, so what's left now?"

"Sixth Brother, kill him!"

Chapter 245 Originally, you didn't have to die.

"Hiss... You guys figured it out." Lu Cheng raised an eyebrow, a hint of mockery in his expression. "Then it seems I can't let you live any longer."

After saying that, the smile on his face completely disappeared.

A massive three-legged golden crow slowly materialized behind it, its body erupting in blazing flames. All around it, countless flames prostrated themselves, as if welcoming a king. Its fiery wings trembled gently.

Looking down at the two dumbfounded people from their elevated position.

A pair of fire bows slowly materialized in his hands.

"Die!"

……

Outside the once peaceful Dongyang City, the ground suddenly shook violently, and then a pillar of light burst through the foundation and shot into the sky. The terrifying aftershocks of the battle were breathtaking.

Countless eyes were drawn to that spot.

"who?!!"

A white-haired general of the Sun and Moon Sect, clad in battle armor, ascended the city wall and gazed solemnly into the distance. There stood the Holy Spirit Sect's altar branch, where at least two powerful figures at the Title Douluo level resided.

I don't know what happened.

And the next moment.

As the flames faded and the intense heat subsided, the old general's eyes grew increasingly dull.

Three figures stood facing each other from a distance.

Two of the figures were dressed in tattered clothes, their once magnificent black robes burned away by the flames. They were now showing their true forms in a sorry state, and were even forced to reveal their Martial Soul True Forms. One of them had a blood-black Ten Thousand Soul Banner swirling around his side, while the other was a full twenty meters tall.

"These are... two elders of the Holy Spirit Cult!!!"

Looking at the nine spirit rings beneath their feet and the familiar aura, the old general was filled with disbelief. How could this be!

He was very familiar with the aura of these two people. As the city's garrison commander, he had dealt with these Holy Spirit Cult experts countless times, and each time he was threatened in various ways. In addition, the empire cooperated with them, so he had no choice but to let them run rampant in Dongyang City.

But now... someone actually managed to push the two of them to this point?

Could it be some kind of Super Douluo?

But which Super Douluo on this continent isn't an old man with gray hair? How could he possibly be this ridiculously young child?

"Sir, that person seems to be... Lu Cheng?!"

The deputy commander guarding the city recognized Lu Cheng's figure, his pupils trembled, and he stammered.

There was no other reason than that, ever since Mingdu was turned upside down not long ago, Xu Tianran had distributed the image crystals with Lu Cheng's face on them to various cities throughout the Sun Moon Empire. These middle and upper-level members of the Sun Moon military were naturally quite familiar with them.

And now... he has actually appeared in Donghai City.

What are you going to do?

"Shut up!" The old general narrowed his eyes. Although he dared not say that he was driving a tiger to devour a wolf, he did not have a good impression of the Holy Spirit Cult. If this young man could destroy the Holy Spirit Cult, even if the leader of the Holy Spirit Cult came here, he would not be able to do anything to him.

What's even stranger is that, judging from the young man's current display of power, it seems he might actually be able to take care of the two of them.

The latter was enveloped in flames and stood on a three-legged bird. Compared to the two opponents who had already forced out their true martial spirit forms, he seemed to be in complete control. Even his clothes were intact and not torn.

“But…” the lieutenant hesitated, “That young man is also an enemy of the Sun Moon Empire. What he did in Mingdu has already enraged His Majesty. We…”

"..." The white-haired old general frowned slightly. That was true. If he didn't help, he wouldn't benefit from the punishment when His Majesty blamed him.

"In that case, let's wait until he shows signs of weakness before making our move."

The veteran stroked his beard, revealing a determined air about him.

I've heard that the young man's escape skills are unparalleled, but I'd like to see if he can still escape under the bombardment of the Sun Moon Empire's organized Soul Guidance Legion.

"Boy, prepare to die!!"

The Soul Douluo's face was ferocious as he waved the Soul Banner, from which countless souls surged forth. Eleven main spirits led the way, followed by hundreds of soul beasts or human soul masters.

"Thank goodness, I made it in time..." Lu Cheng smiled, but he didn't find the mermaid princess's soul among them.

If the mermaid princess were to meet a tragic end, the sea monster leader in the deep sea, a beast that has existed for six hundred thousand years, would probably not give him a friendly look, and he wouldn't need this soul anyway.

For him, the metals were even more important, especially the various rare metals found on the seabed.

"What are you celebrating? I'll take your dog's life today!" The Soul Douluo's eyes blazed with fury as he commanded wave after wave of undead to charge toward Lu Cheng.

"The Sun-Shooting Bow!"

Lu Cheng remained calm as he slowly raised his left arm and slightly clenched his right fingers. Several blazing rockets slowly condensed and were launched one after another at the spirits beneath the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls.

"Pfft~"

With a series of hissing sounds, the rockets transformed into three-legged golden crows, burning those souls to ashes. The souls cried out in agony as they were burned by the flames, but the sound quickly faded away. Their original resentment seemed to be burned away as well, turning into ordinary souls that looked at Lu Cheng with some gratitude.

"How is this possible? What kind of fire is this?!" The vengeful spirits were connected to his body, and Wan Hun Douluo also felt the pain of being devoured. His pupils were filled with disbelief as he looked at Lu Cheng.

"Cover me up!" The Abomination Douluo's body grew larger and larger. The bone bead string that he was playing with in his hand also grew larger. He took off the connecting part, which was a skull that had been ground into a hook. It turned into an iron hook and threw it straight at Lu Cheng.

Meanwhile, the eighth jet-black soul ring beneath the feet of the Myriad Souls Douluo lit up, and the Myriad Souls Banner suddenly doubled in size, covering an area several times larger, its entire body stained with blood and exuding a murderous aura.

"It's time to hit the road."

Lu Cheng remained calm as flames shot into the sky, turning half the sky into a vast expanse of fiery clouds.

Draw the bow and nock the arrow.

With a deafening roar, invisible shockwaves spread in all directions as the arrow was launched. In the blink of an eye, the crimson arrow transformed into a three-legged golden crow, carrying a blazing heat as it struck the Abomination Douluo.

"Boom!!!"

As the smoke cleared, Wan Hun Douluo's pupils dilated in shock as he stared in horror at his former colleague, whose body was riddled with wounds.

The latter's massive body, nearly twenty meters tall, slowly fell, its dark green blood being burned into charcoal.

"What are you waiting for?!" The Soul Douluo was terrified and cried out for help to Donghai City.

"Release!" The white-haired old general, his face also filled with fear, swallowed hard but still chose to heed the subordinate's words and gave the order.

In an instant, countless cannon fire surged from the city wall, bombarding Lu Cheng's body. The continuous cannon fire and abundant firepower, including several level-eight soul tools, would have forced even a Super Douluo to dodge.

The expression on Wan Hun Douluo's face had just relaxed when he suddenly froze.

As the dust and mist dissipated...

The boy's figure remained the same, but several pale golden crows now swirled around him, forming a solid barrier.

Lu Cheng calmly turned his gaze to Donghai City.

“Originally, you didn’t have to die…”

Chapter 246 Liya

Lu Cheng glanced indifferently in the direction of Donghai City.

The old man's pupils suddenly contracted, his heart felt as if it were being gripped by an invisible hand, and then in the next instant...

The young man drew his bow again, but this time the arrow was aimed at his location on the city wall of Donghai City.

"Wait, I have something to say..." The old general's throat bobbed; even in the face of death, he chose to beg for mercy.

"Heh, too late." A hint of disdain flashed in Lu Cheng's eyes. He released the crimson arrow he was holding in his right hand, and the arrow instantly reached the city wall of Donghai City, transforming into a huge three-legged firebird that enveloped hundreds of Sun and Moon Army soldiers.

The Ten Thousand Souls Douluo's face was blank, and the towering flames above the East Sea City gate were still reflected in his pupils.
