Peerless: The Evil Soul Master's Guide to Saving the World

In a state of chaos.

The Abyss Saint King's expression was one of excitement.

Finally, after many explorations, he once again pinpointed the location of that plane. In fact, the reason he discovered that plane was because it emitted a faint signal, exposing itself to the vast universe.

Like a naive child walking through a dark forest, unknowingly lighting a torch, unaware of how many eyes in the forest are coveting him...

Isn't a plane free from the control of gods and rich in resources exactly what their Abyss Plane needs?

It can only be said that he really hit the jackpot; he sensed this good fortune.

The Abyss Plane powers itself by devouring other resources in the universe. There are quite a few like them. They are not weak, but they are not tolerated by the universe. Any god realm in the universe that encounters them will not hesitate to annihilate them, just like stray dogs.

To truly reach the level of the gods, the only way is through devouring! Unending devouring!

Being in the darkness of the universe makes one appreciate its cruelty even more.

"If Mother can devour the Douluo Plane, she will surely reach the God King realm with ease. At that time, our Abyss Plane will have the confidence to become independent..." The Abyss Saint King looked down at the abyss, a hint of expectation flashing in his eyes.

"This faint signal, it absolutely must not be lost..."

……

"The Abyss Plane is really in a hurry."

Xu Cheng used the Temple of Destruction to elevate his status, as if he held the universe in the palm of his hand, overlooking the entire Abyss Plane. He was essentially taking his whole family with him as he headed to the Douluo Star System, even bringing his Origin Power with him.

It was as if they had Douluo completely under their control.

but……

Xu Cheng shook his head.

Kid, you think you're the God-King's grand plan for ten thousand years? You're still too naive. In this universe, there's no such thing as a free lunch.

If you don't follow the Dark Forest Law properly, it's only a matter of time before you get targeted.

In fact, the Abyss Plane was exposed even earlier.

Otherwise, why would Tang San have planned this grand scheme ten thousand years in advance?

However, behind the current Abyss Plane lies a true big boss, the Crimson Mother, who is at the half-step God King realm. It is all interconnected. When Tang God King was scheming against the Abyss Plane, he did not discover that there was a Crimson Mother standing behind it.

However, the Crimson Mother did not appear until the Abyss Saint King was tricked to death. Instead, she created the Crimson Realm, even after the God Realm had been swept away.

Whether she was unaware of the God Realm being swept away or simply didn't care about Douluo Star, it's certain that the Crimson Mother was a seasoned and cunning individual in the early stages.

They should not be designated as enemies for the time being.

As for the Abyss Saint King, there are still more than four years until Douluo Star, which is enough time for the Sun Moon Empire to develop rapidly for a while.

Whether the Abyss Saint King, who has never possessed divine power, can withstand the test of the Sun and Moon Empire's interstellar warships is still uncertain, not to mention that Xu Cheng has long since set his sights on the primordial power of the Abyss Plane.

As I've said before, the underworld needs a River Styx, which is the key to connecting all the planes under the divine realm.

Once it absorbs the power of the Abyss Plane, the Underworld can be considered a true divine realm, rather than the current "small workshop," and Electrolux's strength will definitely skyrocket to the God-King realm.

In short, the roles of the mantis, the cicada, and the oriole are constantly changing, and no one dares to claim victory until the very end.

"Buzz!"

Accompanied by a dizzying sensation.

Xu Cheng exited his divine state and returned to his original state.

A gentle breeze was blowing around him, and looking down, he could see the scenery flashing by. Clearly, he was on his way.

I went to the Starry Sky Forest before.

Unexpectedly, without my "instigation," Di Tian had already issued the ban, which was a pleasant surprise.

After all, with the ban in place, the Heavenly Soul, the Fighting Spirit, and even Shrek Academy and the Body Sect, who were dissatisfied with the current situation but dared not declare war on the Star Dou Great Forest, had only one option... to create artificial soul rings.

However, due to his injuries, the Silver Dragon King seemed unable to regain consciousness for long and fell into a deep sleep once again.

Fortunately, he had just collected all the fragments of "Rakshasa Divine Consciousness" and secretly examined the little girl recuperating in his spiritual sea. He couldn't help but smile.

With the combat power of a Limit Douluo who can be used at any time, plus his mecha, he wouldn't have much trouble traveling on the current continent, or even in some of the continent's secret realms.

but……

And there's Xue Di.

Xu Cheng pondered for a moment.

Beside him, Xue Ling'er seemed to be slowly recovering her divine consciousness as the Snow Empress as time passed. Her dependence and affection for him were genuine, and she showed no sense of rejection. She was obedient and her strength was also slowly recovering...

As a 100,000-year-old soul beast who had undergone a complete transformation, Xue Di was an exception even in the eyes of Xu Cheng, who was well-versed in the original novel.

After all, while transforming, she can retain her original power and also contain a trace of divine power. Even he can't say for sure how far the Snow Emperor will develop in the future.

Perhaps... it's because it evolved from an elemental spirit?
Because of its purity, it is not entirely accurate to say that the Snow Empress is a soul beast; rather, it is more like the embodiment of authority.

Are we heading back to the far north this time?

Seeing that Xu Cheng had "woke up," Xue Ling'er sat playfully on the airship, swinging her legs as she asked a question.

"Yes."

Xu Cheng nodded slightly.

Plans are worse than changes.

Originally, they came to the far north only intending to take advantage of the Snow Emperor's prestige to recruit the Snow Demon as a subordinate, and at the same time mobilize the resources of the far north to fill the deficit of the Sun Moon Empire. However, with the promulgation of the Emperor's decree and the scarcity of soul rings on the original continent, a new resource plundering war is about to begin.

Just imagine.

When forces like Shrek Academy and Clear Sky Sect dare not go to the Star Dou Great Forest to obtain spirit rings, and cannot afford the high cost of artificial spirit rings, what will they do?

That's right, it's about taking a long-term view, for example...

The far north!

The number and quality of the spirit beasts here are in no way inferior to those in the Star Dou Great Forest. In addition, two of the three Heavenly Kings of the far north have been eliminated. Isn't this a natural treasure trove, second only to the Star Dou Great Forest?

As for the Demon Forest, its overlord is too troublesome and is located within the Sun and Moon Empire. The Sunset Forest is too weak; although its formation has been broken, it will take at least a thousand years to truly recover its strength.

They can't afford to wait.

The far north is located in the northernmost part of Douluo Star, which can also be considered the southernmost part.

Because of this thick and long ice layer, the original continent was linked to the Sun and Moon Continent. (ps: I've slightly changed the image settings, but this is based on the original work, since it's explicitly mentioned in the original work...)
Of course, most of the soul beasts in the far north are ice-type?
In reality, apart from the extremely rare case of the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, other ice-type spirit beasts do not have this restriction. At most, they are not compatible with their own spirit and cannot unleash their most integrated combat power.

Compared to having no spirit rings, this is already the best choice.

"Disgusting humans!"

Hyotei naturally thought of this as well, and cursed angrily in his mental sea.

"Ahem, I wasn't talking about you, A-Cheng." He seemed to suddenly realize that Xu Cheng, the "benefactor" who saved the soul beasts, was also human, so he restrained himself a bit and said somewhat awkwardly.

"Hehe, it's alright, humans are indeed filthy."

Xu Cheng smiled.

"However, words like dirty, holy, kind, and evil are all qualities that accompany human beings. We cannot look at them from only one perspective, or that would be too one-sided."

"Hey hey hey, it's been a long time since I've seen the Ice Silkworm Clan from the far north. I wonder how they've been doing since this ancestor left."

Tianmeng also surfaced from the sea of ​​consciousness, popped up, and joined the chat group.

"They might be wiped out by my clan, who knows?" Ice Emperor snorted lightly. "How cruel you are, Ice!" Tianmeng cried out.

"The Ice Jade Scorpion has always fed on the Ice Silkworm Clan. Back then, I was indeed lusting after your body (physical)." Ice Emperor chuckled.

"what……"

Tianmeng twisted her body exaggeratedly and swam away into the distance.

"However, I have never imagined that humans could live in peace with soul beasts..." Ice Emperor said with a sigh.

"That day will come." Xu Cheng smiled.

"However, intimidating those guys won't be a simple matter..."

Xu Cheng looked down into the distance, feeling the air growing colder and seeing people dressed in furry clothes everywhere below, and the architecture so different from Mingdu, and knew that the far north was approaching.

"What should we do then?" Hyotei had clearly come to regard Xu Cheng as his pillar of support, and his tone was somewhat anxious.

If no action is taken, Shrek Academy and Haotian Sect, those two behemoths, will soon be able to devour the far north.

"Trying to bind them with contracts or the like is naturally the most unreliable thing to do. After all, those guys' credibility is already rotten to the core, not to mention that their core interests are involved now," Xu Cheng pondered.

"And Snow Emperor, since neither you nor Tianmeng can return, and the high-ranking officials of the Far North are dwindling, then external intervention is the only option..."

"If you don't mind, I hope to bring the far north into the Sun and Moon Empire's territory. As you know, the Sun and Moon Empire is not afraid of your soul rings. They only need the metal minerals and some other resources hidden underground in the far north."

"Of course, the Sun Moon Empire will not exploit resources indefinitely; these resources will be returned to the far north in the future."

When core interests are involved, the conflicts will be sharp.

So even Xu Cheng hesitated whether to bring it up.

"can!"

However, to his surprise, Hyotei agreed almost without hesitation.

"To be honest, if I hadn't seen any hope of you becoming a god, as the former ruler of the far north, I would have pondered this matter for a long time..."

"But now that your ascension to godhood is almost a certainty, it's pointless to broaden your horizons and expand your perspective. There's no point in fussing over these things anymore. You've already earned my complete trust by vigorously developing artificial soul rings. The far north is currently under the protection of the Sun Moon Empire, making it the best choice..."

"Just some insignificant resources; the far north doesn't care."

Hyotei explained softly.

"Thank you."

Xu Cheng smiled.

"..."

With the Ice Emperor's approval, the journey to the far north will encounter almost no obstacles. After all, the Snow Emperor has encountered some mishaps, and only the Ice Emperor can make decisions...

As for the Snow Demon Titan, it's just a small Karami.

"Speed ​​up!"

Xu Cheng crossed the border of Tianhun and continued northward.

……

As expected.

We have just entered the outer edge of the far north.

The snow fell heavily, turning the earth into a vast expanse of white.

Xu Cheng frowned.

There were traces of humans, although the traces were covered by heavy snow, but with his spiritual perception, he could naturally detect a lot of human presence.

And most importantly... it's not just one wave.

The sources of their auras are diverse, and there are extremely powerful individuals within the group.

Similar to Xuanzi, or the Body Sect.

Continuing onward, they encountered numerous signs of fighting and even traces of soul beast blood. This sight infuriated both Ice Emperor and Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm. Clearly, due to the sealing order of the Star Dou Great Forest, various forces had set their sights on the easily bullied far north...

"Boom!"

Suddenly, like an avalanche, a deafening sound came from afar.

The entire ice layer seemed to tremble violently.

"This is... Atai's aura!"

Hyotei roared.

"What do they want to do!"

"For a 100,000-year soul ring." Xu Cheng nodded slightly.

They're probably all here to hunt him down. A 200,000-year-old soul beast is an extremely rare treasure these days, especially given how much more difficult it is to obtain a 100,000-year-old soul ring.

Moreover, it is highly likely that they were captured and then "stored".

Then prepare for the future.

Based on Xu Cheng's perception along the way, this group hadn't killed many soul beasts. It seemed more like they planned to put them all in sacks and take them back as a resource to enjoy at their leisure.

"Don't worry, they won't be able to take any of the soul beasts from the far north with them," Xu Cheng grinned.

He was naturally happy to cause trouble for these guys.

……

"Roar! Humans, get out of the far north!"

A giant, a hundred meters tall, covered in white fur, stared with blood-red eyes at the figures in mid-air.

There are too many strong people among them.

There are at least seven or eight experts above the Super Douluo level. Although there are multiple waves of them, and each of these humans has their own ulterior motives, it is almost impossible for it to break through the encirclement with this lineup.

If it dies, it won't matter.

But now that the Snow Emperor and Ice Emperor have disappeared, only one of the three Heavenly Kings of the Far North remains to hold on.

If it were to die too... I can't imagine what chaos would ensue in the leaderless far north.

When the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress return, they will see this far north...

Titan Snow Demon King dared not think about it.

"Atai, you go, I'll self-destruct to cover your retreat!"

Behind it, a massive ice-green scorpion spoke urgently.

The only two 100,000-year-old soul beasts in the far north are also the patriarchs of the Ice Jade Scorpion clan.

They are both partners and comrades-in-arms.

But now...

"We'll die together! I'll self-destruct too! I won't let those despicable humans get the slightest benefit," Atai said through gritted teeth.

"If you die, who will avenge the soul beasts of the far north who were captured by humans?!" the Ice Jade Scorpion leader roared.

"Go find the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress! Only they can avenge us!" (End of Chapter)
