Douluo Jueshi: Who let him join Shrek!

Chapter 721 If I can't find you, can you escape the gods' search?

"Come in you!"

With two powerful Vajra Fists followed by a Sovereign's Decree, the Evil Eye Tyrant, with 100,000 years of cultivation, was severely injured and weakened.

In this state, let alone Jiang Ming, even an ordinary Title Douluo, or even a stronger Soul Douluo, could easily defeat this guy.

However, the purpose of severely injuring it is not to kill it, but to let it enter the small world and contribute to the biodiversity and the number of high-end combat forces in the small world.

"Whew, that feels great!"

After defeating the 100,000-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant, Jiang Ming suffered almost no loss. In other words, while attacking, his dual-drive system replenished his soul power.

"Snow Empress, this 100,000-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant is now in your hands to train."

Jiang Ming used his mental power to inform the Snow Emperor in the small world.

Even though Xue Di is currently in a spirit state and doesn't even have a physical body, she still has no problem controlling an Evil Eye Tyrant.

Moreover, after merging with Jiang Ming's soul, Xue Di, with Jiang Ming's permission, has the ability to mobilize the power of the rules of the small world. This alone makes it impossible for the 100,000-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant to resist!
"Oh, I see."

Xue Di gave a soft "hmm," then took a few graceful steps and came to the Evil Eye Tyrant, who had just been severely injured. After thinking for a moment, she waved her hand and threw it into the forest.

The Evil Eye Tyrant's attributes are spirit and evil. After cultivating for 100,000 years, it still retains some time and space attributes. It is obviously not suitable to place a soul beast with these attributes in a glacier; it is better to place it in a forest.

As for whether this guy will clash with Xiao Bi, that's not something she needs to worry about.

After all, it's a 100,000-year-old soul beast. Even if it can't beat Xiao Bi, it shouldn't die at Xiao Bi's hands.

Oh, not yet. After all, this guy is seriously injured right now, and Xiao Bi is highly poisonous. If he enters the heart of the forest in this state, he might really die at Xiao Bi's hands.

After a few seconds of thought, Xue Di still used the power of the small world to notify Xiao Ling.

The bloodline of the Evil Eye Tyrant is not weak. If it is properly nurtured, it might be able to help Jiang Ming in the future. At least, it's better than killing it.

Outside, after Jiang Ming took the Evil Eye Tyrant, who had cultivated for 100,000 years, into his small world, he went directly to the deepest part of the Demon Forest.

This is one of the most dangerous forbidden zones in the entire Sun Moon Empire! It is the habitat of ferocious beasts with 800,000 years of cultivation. Even the Holy Spirit Cult, which cooperates with the Evil Monarch, dares not come to this place.

Like the perilous Star Dou Great Forest, almost no human who comes here leaves alive; they all become nutrients for the soil of this region.

The environment here is very dark, with huge trees covered in dark gray branches and leaves, giving people a very heavy and oppressive feeling.

Even though it was afternoon, the entire space felt as dark as if it were the dead of night, thanks to the cover of these huge, dark gray trees.

This environment would normally be an excellent training ground for Soul Masters with dark attributes, but Jiang Ming could clearly sense that compared to the darkness, there was a greater aura of evil in the surrounding space. This evil aura even carried strong mental fluctuations, constantly rippling through the space.

It is foreseeable that if a Soul Master with weak spiritual power comes here, even a Soul Saint or Soul Douluo, they will be corrupted by the evil spiritual power here and become a puppet over time.

The traces of a 800,000-year-old spirit-type soul beast living here are enough to prove this.

Jiang Ming frowned. Although the spiritual energy fluctuations and evil aura here were strong, they did not match the aura of the Evil Lord at all.

"Evil Lord, come out!"

Jiang Ming shouted, and the sound wave, carrying the powerful mental pressure of a sovereign, instantly spread to the surrounding space, directly breaking away the mental energy that was originally filled with evil aura.

The other powerful soul beasts deep within the Demon Forest sensed this aura and immediately fled in panic.

Soul beasts whose cultivation has reached a certain level are no less intelligent than humans. They are simply no match for beings like the Evil Lord who directly seek out evil lords.

In a cave not far from the depths of the Demon Forest, the Dark Demon God Tiger, licking its wounds, sensed this familiar aura and was immediately startled.

run!
Without hesitation, I ran!

The aura was so familiar. Its two long canine teeth were still throbbing with pain. It had almost pulled those two teeth out of its mouth back then!

boom!
Not long after it ran out of the cave, a terrifying aura suddenly erupted from not far away. The terrifying shockwave overturned huge trees that required several people to encircle, and rolled and impacted everything around it.

The Dark Demon God Tiger was struck on the back by a huge tree trunk. Intense pain shot through its flesh and bones, but it still managed to escape the area at top speed.

In the heart of the Demon Forest, Jiang Ming shattered the earth with a single move and found the Evil Lord's cave.

Compared to the Snow Emperor's Ice Palace and the Lake of Life in the Emperor's Land, the Evil Lord's cave was far too unattractive. It was covered in dark soil, which seemed to have been stained with blood, and was filled with a bloody and evil atmosphere.

Perhaps, for the Evil Lord, this kind of environment is the best in his eyes.

This environment is even the best training environment for evil spirit masters.

"Little Yellow, come here!"

Jiang Ming glanced at his surroundings, frowned slightly, and called for Xiao Huang to merge.

Soon, Jiang Ming's hair turned into long, dark yellow hair, and his aura broke through level 96, directly reaching level 97.

The next second, Jiang Ming stomped his foot on the ground, and the power of the earth surged and quickly spread in all directions.

As the power of the earth surged, the situation beneath the Demon Forest also appeared in Jiang Ming's mind.

No. No, or no?

Jiang Ming's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. He couldn't find any trace of the Evil Lord in the entire central area of ​​the Demon Forest.

What's the situation?
Has the Evil Lord gone on a trip?

Jiang Ming only withdrew his power after the Earth Power had surveyed almost half of the underground of the Demon Forest.

He was now certain that the Evil Lord had left the Demon Forest.

The Evil Eye Tyrant, ranked second among the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts with a cultivation of 800,000 years, actually ran away?

Of course, it's also possible that they didn't run away; after all, they might have gone to other places to take care of business.

"Tsk, the Evil Lord has escaped, but we can't leave empty-handed. The Holy Spirit Cult's headquarters is also located underground in the Demon Forest, so let's take it down while we're at it."

Jiang Ming felt somewhat helpless about the Evil Lord's escape.

But since we're already here, let's take care of another matter.

Jiang Ming's eyes flashed with golden light. When the power of the earth spread just now, he had detected the location of the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters in the underground of the Demon Forest.

Propelled by the power of the earth, Jiang Ming moved directly underground, heading towards the headquarters of the Holy Spirit Cult.

With the power of the earth, Jiang Ming's movement underground was completely unimpeded, and he was even slightly faster than when he moved on the surface.

boom!
The soil above the altar at the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters was blasted through, and Jiang Ming's figure stepped onto the throne of the altar amidst countless falling rocks.

The sound of falling rocks echoed repeatedly in the empty underground cave.

"The Holy Spirit Cult has also run away? What's going on?" Jiang Ming was genuinely confused. How could this be? The Evil Lord ran away, and the Holy Spirit Cult has also run away?

Could it be that someone tipped them off?

No way.
His mental energy swept across the surroundings, and all the information about the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters appeared in his mind.

air!
Nothing!
Clearly, the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters has been completely emptied, leaving nothing of value behind.

"Wow, they really moved everything cleanly."

Jiang Ming narrowed his eyes slightly, then activated the spiritual imprints left in his spiritual sea.

When he went to Sunrise City last time, he controlled several evil soul masters at the Title Douluo level.

Jiang Ming did not choose to kill them at the time, but instead used the skills of the head soul bone to control the souls of these evil soul masters.

Of course, to avoid being discovered by the two Limit Douluos of the Holy Spirit Cult, Jiang Ming has basically not made any moves against them for more than a year.

But now, the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters has run away, which may be related to the Sun Moon Empire's plans. He needs to know what's going on to avoid any trouble later.

Inspired by Jiang Ming's soul imprint, people quickly responded.

"Owner."

The one who responded to Jiang Ming was the Blood Soul Douluo, who possessed the Blood Soul Hook.

"What's the situation with the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters? Why is it empty?"

Jiang Ming asked in a deep voice.

Blood Soul Douluo replied, "Reporting to Master, the Supreme Master ordered us to abandon the headquarters. Now, some of the evil soul masters from the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters have gone to the border of the Sun Moon Empire, and some have gone to the stronghold in Mingdu."

"The Supreme Master?"

Jiang Ming frowned and asked, "Why would she suddenly abandon headquarters? What's the reason?"

How could a headquarters that has been operating for thousands of years suddenly be abandoned? Something must have happened.

"Master, this should be related to the strange activity in the Demon Forest."

At that moment, another soul imprint spoke.

That's Nangong Wan, the second elder of the Holy Spirit Cult.

This guy was almost burned to death by Ma Xiaotao's phoenix flames, but Jiang Ming still asked Ma Xiaotao to leave him a breath, and in the end, he was controlled by the soul imprint planted by him.

"go on."

Nangong Wan continued, "Master, you may not know this, but the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters has a cooperative relationship with the Evil Eye Tyrant, who resides deep within the Demon Forest. The Holy Spirit Cult headquarters regularly provides the Evil Eye Tyrant with sufficient blood offerings and rare treasures as tribute, and the Evil Eye Tyrant also protects the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters."

This is an exchange of interests. Otherwise, given the conflict between soul beasts and humans, if humans dared to establish a base in a soul beast gathering place, even if it was the Holy Spirit Cult, they would be courting death!

"Speak the key."

Jiang Ming said with some dissatisfaction, "I know all about these things."

Hearing Jiang Ming's dissatisfied voice, Nangong Wan was clearly flustered, but still continued, "A day ago, the Evil Eye Tyrant, who had been dormant in the deepest part of the Demon Forest, left the Demon Forest for some unknown reason and disappeared without a trace. I suspect that the Supreme Master's order for us to evacuate the headquarters is related to this matter."

This is no secret. After all, the commotion when the Evil Lord left was enormous, and immediately after the Evil Lord left, the Supreme Master announced that he would withdraw from the headquarters. Anyone with a slightly sharp mind would easily connect the two events.

"Why did the Evil Lord suddenly leave the Demon Forest?"

The Holy Spirit Cult and the Evil Lord have a cooperative relationship. If the Evil Lord suddenly leaves, it is reasonable that this could easily trigger a chain reaction within the Holy Spirit Cult.

But the question is, if the Evil Lord was doing well in the Demon Forest, why did he leave it?

The two soul imprints remained silent; they hadn't figured this out either.

"Alright, you can continue to infiltrate the Holy Spirit Cult. Report any movements to me immediately."

Jiang Ming didn't expect these two guys to understand everything, and given the Evil Lord's status, they wouldn't know much anyway.

However, even if the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters is empty, there's no need to leave it for them.

Jiang Ming emitted an earthy yellow light, and then the earth shook violently, causing the land above and below the underground Holy Spirit Cult headquarters to squeeze together towards the center.

In an instant, this massive underground structure, which had cost countless manpower and resources to build, collapsed with a roar, turning into a layer of compacted soil.

Jiang Ming, however, had long since disappeared.

"This Ye Xishui"

On a branch of a large tree in the Demon Forest, Jiang Ming looked at the rumbling earth below, his eyes flashing as he pondered deeply.

Ye Xishui's move to withdraw the evil spirit masters from the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters to Mingdu and the border was indeed quite clever.

Therefore, if he were to take action against the Holy Spirit Cult, he would either have to make a big move in Mingdu or on the border.

Whether it's the former or the latter, it will inevitably disrupt the current relatively peaceful situation on the mainland.

Once the situation is broken and war begins, countless deaths will occur, which will undoubtedly be the best nourishment for evil spirit masters.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed in Jiang Ming's mind.

Ye Xishui's actions seem to be aimed at him!
After all, even if the Holy Spirit Cult is severely damaged, it is not something that ordinary strong people can shake. The existence of the Evil Lord can protect the Holy Spirit Cult. Even without the Evil Lord, the Holy Spirit Cult is still a behemoth. How could it easily withdraw?

The only explanation is that Ye Xishui believed the headquarters was in danger of collapsing, which is why she did this.

In other words, the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters withdrew because of itself.

Ye Xishui's worry stemmed from the sudden departure of the Evil Lord.

Then
"Did the Evil Lord sense that I would come looking for him, which is why he ran away?"

Jiang Ming felt that he had found the reason why the Evil Lord had suddenly left the Demon Forest.

He raised an eyebrow slightly, and his handsome face seemed to be gilded in the afterglow of the setting sun.

"Hehe, under normal circumstances, it would indeed be very difficult for me to find you if you ran away, but..."

"I can't find it. Can you evade the gods' search?"
