Seeing Leng Yaozhu leave, Qiangugu Dongfeng let out a sigh of relief and glared at the oncoming attack, coldly shouting, "World Domination Armor!"
The next second, a white glow emanated from his body, and the sturdy four-word Battle Armor, filled with powerful defensive force, appeared on him...
Upon collision, a "bang!" was heard as Qiangugu Dongfeng was sent flying back, smashing into the wall and creating a dent...
A cold sneer crossed the face of the Dark Blood Devil, "Only now you use your Battle Armor. From the very beginning, you didn't intend to kill that woman... Well, today, your life will be taken in her stead."
Thinking back now, Qiangugu Dongfeng hadn't released his Battle Armor in their duel at all!
Extricating himself from the dent, Qiangugu Dongfeng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and stared at the Dark Blood Devil, coughing, "Dark Blood Devil, do you really think you have me completely under your thumb?"
The Dark Blood Devil disdainfully said, "After your battle with that woman, your Soul Power has almost depleted. How much longer can you last in front of me now that you've released your four-word Battle Armor?"
After a pause, he went on, "You might as well surrender quietly and die by my hand!"
Upon hearing this, Qiangugu Dongfeng burst into laughter, "Soul Power almost depleted? How foolish. Even if I die today, I will drag you down with me!"
After his words fell, the ninth hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring under his feet lit up...
Ninth soul skill, Sky Vault Dragon Coil!
In an instant, the entire Spirit Pagoda's main hall was filled with palpable excitement, and a huge dragon coiling around appeared in the space!
Then, its pupils glowing with golden light looked down below, and after locking on to the Dark Blood Devil, it unleashed a thunderous and earth-shattering roar as if it was about to tear through Yunxiao!
Feeling his heart pound, the Dark Blood Devil's eyes narrowed as he thought to himself, "Something is not right! I must escape from here quickly!"
As if sensing the thoughts of the Dark Blood Devil, Qiangugu Dongfeng scoffed, "Dark Blood Devil, it's too late. My ninth soul skill can lock down space!"
Visibly, he took a deep breath and guided the life force and Soul Power slowly emanating from his body, fusing perfectly with the massive dragon...
In that moment, the entire soul skill underwent another elevation, reaching a God Rank strike!!
The space around was forcibly locked down!
And the Dark Blood Devil, realizing that he could not escape, finally began to panic...
A grim expression on his face, he said, "You... you madman! You're actually using your life force and Soul Power to amplify this soul skill!"
Regardless of whether this soul skill could kill him or not, the former would certainly perish!
Qiangugu Dongfeng coldly stated, "No use talking. Come with me to Hell!"
Immediately after, the dragon coiling in the space soared into the air, charging directly at the Dark Blood Devil...
...
Hearing the resounding dragon's roar behind her as she rushed to Shrek Academy, Leng Yaozhu became completely stunned...
She knew Qiangugu Dongfeng's strength very well, especially his ninth soul skill!
It required one's life force and Soul Power as the price to be unleashed!
This also meant that after this battle, one of the top fighters on the Continent, Spirit Transmission Douluo, would be no more!
With this realization, the corners of her eyes gradually reddened...
But at this point, she had to inform Sea God's Pavilion of the situation, urging them to take over the Spirit Pagoda with utmost speed!
The Spirit Pagoda must not fall into the control of the Holy Spirit Cult; otherwise, the safety of the whole Continent would be truly in jeopardy!
...
Meanwhile, in Sea God's Pavilion, the elders felt a surge of distressing energy while in discussion...
Cai Yue'er stopped talking, her beautiful eyes slightly focusing, "This energy is... from Spirit Transmission Douluo! And I can feel his vitality fading!"
Turbid World frowned, "Could something have happened at the Spirit Pagoda? With Qiangugu Dongfeng's strength, he shouldn't have been killed by anyone!"
Long Yeyue propped her chin, pondering, "Could it be the work of the Holy Spirit Cult? There have always been rumors on the Continent that the Spirit Pagoda and the Holy Spirit Cult have under-the-table dealings, and falling out is also possible!"
Lan Muzi's gaze turned toward Yun Ming, and he took the initiative to suggest, "It's pointless to speculate here. Pavilion Master, let me go and investigate myself!"
Yun Ming hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Hmm, be sure to stay safe!"
...
War God Hall!
Guan Yue glanced sideways at Chen Xinjie, "Hall Master, did you feel it? That dragon's roar just now..."
Chen Xinjie's expression was solemn as he replied, "Hmm, if I'm not mistaken, that should have been Qiangugu Dongfeng... but who could have attacked him!"
Qiangugu Dongfeng was a Tool Soul, but in reality, as long as one's strength reached above a Hyper Douluo, one could temporarily transform into a Beast Soul!
Guan Yue took a deep breath, "First, the inner court students of Shrek Academy were attacked, followed by the annihilation of the Tang Sect, and now something has happened at the Spirit Pagoda as well. Hall Master, we can't just stand by and watch!"
If before they were observing from the sidelines, now they had to face the situation head-on!
Chen Xinjie pursed his lips, then instructed, "Guan Yue, you go to the Spirit Pagoda first to investigate the situation, and then make contact with Shrek Academy!"
Guan Yue had a good relationship with Yun Ming, so sending him was the most appropriate!
Guan Yue hesitated for a moment, then replied without hesitation, "Yes, Hall Master! I'll leave the War God Hall in your care."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xinjie couldn't help but react with a mix of laughter and helplessness, "You kid, I am the Hall Master of the War God Hall, of course, I should..."
Guan Yue just gave a resigned smile, and then left.
...
Holy Spirit Cult!
Clutching his chest, the Dark Blood Devil spit out a mouthful of fresh blood with a "pfft!", and the killing intent he was emitting had reached its peak...
If it hadn't been for the use of his ninth soul skill to save his life, he would have probably died under that move from Qiangugu Dongfeng!
A strike comparable to a God Rank attack is not so easy to block!
Nanali asked in confusion, "Dark Blood Devil, what happened? Why are you so seriously injured?"
Leng Yulai narrowed her Beautiful Eyes, "Don't tell me you got into a fight with the Spirit Pagoda's master?"
The Dark Blood Devil just coldly "hmpf!" and did not answer...
Leng Yulai stated confidently, "It seems to be the case indeed. And where is my sister?"
The thing she wanted to do most was to personally kill her sister!
The Dark Blood Devil glanced at her, somewhat unwilling to admit, "There was a bit of an accident at the end and she escaped!"
Upon hearing this, Leng Yulai coldly exclaimed, "Waste!"
This sudden insult sparked a fierce anger in the heart of the Dark Blood Devil, "Are you seeking death?"
Leng Yulai laughed, her smile radiant, "Seeking death? Now that your soul power rank has fallen to level 97, do you really think you're still my match?"
Just as the situation was escalating, Hades, who had always been silent, spoke up to interrupt, "Enough! Being able to kill Qiangugu Dongfeng is already impressive. Dark Blood Devil, you may go rest!"
The Dark Blood Devil tried to calm his emotions as much as possible, "Yes! Vice Sect Hierarch!"
