Douluo Jueshi: Who made him a soul mentor!

Chapter 178 Quickly seek help from Shrek Academy! (Long Chapter)

The remaining six priests of the Holy Spirit Church looked on with strange expressions as they saw that five of their colleagues had suddenly disappeared.

It's alright if their martial spirit is an evil martial spirit, because they know that apart from the Holy Spirit Cult, no other force will accept them who cultivate by devouring souls and flesh. They can only follow the Holy Spirit Cult down this dark path.

But when the worshippers of normal martial spirits saw their colleagues running away, their own thoughts began to surface.

Someone cursed inwardly, "Damn it, they ran away without even telling me. I'm so angry!"

Li Fei, a Flood Dragon Douluo with a cultivation level of 97, watched Shen Kang, Zhang Peng, and the others disappear without expression.

He looked at Long Xiaoyao beside Ye Xishui and sighed slightly, but his expression remained firm, clearly indicating that he was willing to continue following Long Xiaoyao.

Li Fei was born into a family of Soul Masters in the Heavenly Soul Empire, but unfortunately, when he was sixteen, his family was wiped out by their enemies.

Although he and several clansmen living elsewhere managed to escape with their lives, their enemies, determined to eliminate any future threats, continued to send people to hunt them down.

Just as the other clansmen were being killed one by one, Li Fei was also driven to a dead end and was about to die.

Long Xiaoyao, who was traveling across the continent, rescued him and taught Li Fei, enabling him to take revenge and kill his enemies.

Because of the life-saving grace and the kindness of teaching, and because Li Fei is a grateful person, he became devoted to Long Xiaoyao from then on. Even though Long Xiaoyao associated with evil spirit masters, he was unwilling to betray him.

With Ye Xishui's command, the Holy Spirit Cult's massive force began to move towards the Mingdou Mountains.

Numerous Holy Spirit Cult disciples surrounded a soul-guided vehicle loaded with low- to mid-grade rare metals. Dozens of flying soul beasts, their souls controlled, hovered in the sky.

There are also evil soul masters equipped with flying soul tools, as well as high-ranking members of the Holy Spirit Cult with profound cultivation who can stand in the air without flying soul tools.

The entire migration procession resembled a winding, giant black python.

Zhongli Wu stood on the back of a jet-black bone dragon, glanced back at the five empty offering positions, and a shadow of gloom flashed in his eyes.

Including Uncle Long, the Holy Spirit Cult has a total of twelve elders, who are the strongest fighting force of the Holy Spirit Cult. Now, five of them have been lost.

In addition, not long ago, the Xi Shui Alliance was destroyed, and the Second and Third Elders who presided over the Xi Shui Alliance were killed. Going back further, Wang Chen also killed a Title Douluo Elder of his Holy Spirit Cult.

Now, three of his eight elders and five of his twelve honorees have passed away. Such a huge loss has weighed heavily on the heart of the leader of the Holy Spirit Church.

Zhongli Wu approached Ye Xishui and whispered, "Mother, should I send someone to..."

Ye Xishui calmly said, "The most important thing now is to establish a foothold in the Douluo Three Kingdoms and develop our power. Once the Holy Spirit Cult has greatly increased its strength, there will be plenty of time to clean up those traitors."

"Wu'er, the environment of the Sun Moon Empire has hindered your cultivation. Now that you're in the Douluo Three Kingdoms, cultivate diligently and strive to break through level ninety-nine as soon as possible to become a Limit Douluo."

Upon hearing the words "Limit Douluo," Zhongli Wu felt his blood boil. Previously, in the Sun Moon Empire, he had been unable to unleash his killing spree and improve his cultivation. Now, heading to the Douluo Three Kingdoms, his strength would undoubtedly increase rapidly.

As the leader of the Holy Spirit Cult, Zhongliwu also had ambitions; he didn't want to remain a mere echo of his mother's words forever.

He wanted to seize power and become the king of evil spirit masters. However... his cultivation was insufficient, and he was simply unable to control the Holy Spirit Cult. He could only be a puppet, obeying his mother's orders.

Zhongli Wu nodded immediately, "I understand, Mother."

Ye Xi Shuidao: "Let's keep going."

Watching this scene of motherly love and filial piety, Long Xiaoyao felt a pang of resentment. The woman he loved had a child with another man, and yet his child had been murdered.

Ye Xishui also noticed that Long Xiaoyao was in a bad mood, and whispered to comfort him, "Xiaoyao, I found a fertility-enhancing pill formula. Let's try it later. If it doesn't work, you can find a young woman to have your child. I don't mind."

Although Ye Xishui said that, she was a hundred times unwilling in her heart. If Long Xiaoyao dared to have a child with another woman, she would tear that woman to pieces.

Long Xiaoyao gazed at Ye Xishui with deep affection, "Xishui, I only love you. I don't care for other women."

……

During the migration of the Holy Spirit Cult, on the border between the Sun Moon Empire and the Star Luo Empire, in the Mingdou Mountains.

The Sun Moon Empire's Soul Master Corps stationed here received an emergency evacuation order from the Emperor.

The border Soul Master Corps was ordered to immediately withdraw to a major northern town of the Sun Moon Empire to avoid the migrating Holy Spirit Cult.

Xu Jing was very shrewd. After learning from Shen Kang, a follower of the Holy Spirit Cult, that the Holy Spirit Cult was leaving the Sun Moon Empire for the Douluo Three Kingdoms, he...

He immediately issued an order for the Soul Master Corps on the border to withdraw first, in order to avoid conflict with the Holy Spirit Church and prevent losses of troops.

Xu Jingke did not believe that the evil soul masters of the Holy Spirit Cult, who planned to leave the Sun Moon Empire, would show mercy when they encountered the Soul Master Corps.

……

Time flies, and a day later...

The migrating Holy Spirit Cult reached the border between the Sun Moon Empire and the Star Luo Empire, at the Mingdou Mountains.

The sky appeared slightly dim under the dim sunlight.

Looking at the majestic and precipitous Mingdou Mountains and the massive fortress built against the mountains with heavy troops guarding it, Ye Xishui said, "The Star Luo Empire is almost here, speed up!"

Zhongli Wu and the other evil soul masters looked at the fortress not far away, their eyes bloodshot with excitement, like wild beasts released from their cages, their faces showing a bloodthirsty and ferocious smile, roaring as they pounced on the fortress.

As for the so-called treacherous terrain, that's only true for ordinary people; for Soul Masters who can fly, it's utter nonsense.

Zhongli Wu took the lead, charging out alongside Vice Leader Feng Ling, then roared with laughter, "Destroy this fortress that is blocking the advance of my Holy Spirit Sect!!"

The elders and powerful figures of the Holy Spirit Cult excitedly replied, "Yes, Master!"

Wanhun Douluo said, "Hahaha, rest assured, Master, today, this fortress will surely be stained with blood."

The Bloodthirsty Douluo said, "It's been a long time since I've had a massacre. Today, I'm going to have a good time."

The Demon Lord of Hatred declared, "No one but members of my Holy Spirit Cult is allowed to live!"

The soul power of numerous evil soul masters with cultivation levels above Title Douluo erupted together, and the evil aura soared into the sky, making the already dim sky even darker.

In an instant, vengeful spirits wailed, shadowy figures filled the air, and blood gushed out. One after another, evil soul masters laughed loudly, and then each of them used their best skills to sweep towards the Star Luo Empire's fortress.

In the military fortress, the supreme commander of the Northwest Army, Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger, stood on the fortress wall inspecting the defenses when he suddenly felt a pang of fear.

He suddenly looked up into the distance and saw a dark cloud approaching the fortress at an alarming speed on the horizon.

But upon closer inspection, those weren't dark clouds at all; they were clearly a series of powerful individuals with immense soul power and terrifying auras.

Dai Hao's cultivation was not weak, and his soul power was close to that of a Title Douluo, but when he looked at the dark clouds, he felt cold all over and was drenched in sweat.

The soul power contained within the dark clouds far exceeded that of him, a peak Soul Douluo, and even a Title Douluo was far from matching it.

"Enemy attack—! Highest defense activated, everyone on alert!!" Dai Hao shouted sharply, his eight-ring Soul Douluo's soul power erupting, the White Tiger possessing him, Dai Hao's whole body exuding a chilling iron-blooded aura.

The powerful Soul Masters guarding the fortress immediately activated their Martial Souls, while the ordinary Soul Masters quickly took up their battle positions.

Then, he activated his soul power to deploy various defensive soul-guided barriers to protect the fortress.

At the same time, the soul-guided cannon is fully prepared and ready to fire as soon as the enemy enters its range.

However, as that "dark cloud" drew near, everyone gasped in shock—

Twisted vengeful spirits, hideous skeletons, rotting corpses, bloodthirsty bats, and enormous bone dragons... decimated the defensive towers near the fortress, then charged forward laughing.

Seeing such a terrifying and evil scene, the two Title Douluos and one Super Douluo in the fortress stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

One of the Title Douluo powerhouses exclaimed, "Evil Soul Masters! So many evil Soul Masters! Such powerful evil Soul Masters!! Title Douluo? No, Super Douluo evil Soul Masters!"

Another Title Douluo powerhouse was also deathly pale. "How could so many evil soul masters be rushing over from the Sun Moon Empire? What's going on! Or is this the work of the Sun Moon Empire?!" The strongest combat force in the fortress, the level 95 Super Douluo—Shattered Star Douluo—had a very solemn expression, thinking to himself, "With this kind of force, the fortress probably can't be held. I'll have to find a chance to escape later. With my Space Martial Soul, I should be able to run away."

Dai Hao roared, "Fire the soul-guided cannons!! Soul Master Legion, launch the attack!!"

As Dai Hao finished speaking, yellow light burst forth from the menacing soul-guided cannons on the fortress walls.

The two-thousand-strong Soul Master legion also launched an attack together.

With a deafening roar, a yellow energy shockwave tore through space, causing the atmosphere to vibrate, and struck the rapidly approaching evil spirit master with the force of thunder.

Although there was no linked soul tool, this attack, which combined two thousand soul masters and numerous soul cannons, would be difficult for even a level 95 or 96 Super Douluo to withstand. They would have to retreat and would be severely injured if hit.

Facing the attack from the Star Luo Empire's garrison inside the fortress, Zhongli Wu, who was at the forefront of many evil soul masters, stood on the bone dragon with a calm expression, releasing the pressure of a Super Douluo without reservation.

During this period, Zhongli Wu's soul power made another small breakthrough, and he was very close to level 97. Although he still hadn't reached level 98 in the original work, his strength was not to be underestimated.

Zhongli Wu waved his hand, and a staff appeared in his hand. Nine soul rings, six black and three red, rose and circled around his body, lighting up one after another.

Zhongli Wu's martial soul is called Death God Demon Puppet, which originated from Ye Xishui's martial soul Blood Soul Demon Puppet.

However, compared to Ye Xishui, Zhongli Wu's martial soul has mutated and become even more powerful.

It can be said that the student has surpassed the master, not only able to absorb death energy to increase its strength, but also possessing extremely powerful direct combat capabilities. Furthermore, it can enslave beast spirits to fight for it…

Although it possesses numerous abilities, they are all extremely powerful, making it a top-tier evil martial spirit.

Zhongli Wu looked at the shockwave with disdain and said, "What's the use of having many people if there are no coordinated soul tools? The power is dispersed. Watch me break it!"

He sat down on the ferocious bone dragon, which was a hundred meters long. Intense green flames danced in its eyes. Then, the bone dragon opened its mouth and spat out a blue ball of light the size of a human head.

This azure light cluster is called the Extreme of Wind, and in terms of attribute level, it is already very close to the ultimate attribute. Its power is so great that Zhongli Wu once used this move to flatten a mountain.

A blue ball of light, the size of a human head, tore through space, creating a deep, dark chasm before colliding with the shockwave.

The bone dragon ridden by Zhongli Wu was incredibly powerful. The azure light ball, powered by highly compressed wind-attribute energy, pierced through the massive energy shockwave and split in two.

The energy shockwave split in two, one shooting towards the sky and the other towards the ground, but it did not cause any harm to the evil spirit master.

Zhongli Wu single-handedly withstood the attack of the Soul Master Legion in the fortress.

The other powerful evil spirit masters of the Holy Spirit Cult also displayed their unique abilities, launching a frenzied attack on the fortress.

One after another, the fortress's various defensive soul-guided barriers shattered, despite the constant obstruction from the fortress's guards and numerous powerful soul masters.

However, the number of strong individuals is far too small. How can the strong individuals of a fortress compare to the Holy Spirit Cult, which is comparable to a nation?

Although Ye Xishuilong Xiaoyao didn't make a move, but only provided support from the rear, all the defensive soul tools in the fortress still failed to last even a minute before completely dimming.

Without the protection of the defensive soul-guided shield, the fortress is like a beautiful woman without clothes.

Faced with a multitude of predatory wolves, she could only let out pitiful whimpers.

Upon seeing the fortress's defenses breached, the evil spirit masters let out sinister laughs and charged forward with their eyes glowing red.

"For Xingluo!" Dai Hao watched as the fortress was breached and numerous evil soul masters rushed into it.

He immediately roared and led the White Tiger Guards and more than ten high-ranking generals to fight against the evil spirit masters who had surrounded them.

The White Tiger's fierce light wave swept out, turning more than a dozen low-level evil soul masters into ashes.

But soon, the two Holy Spirit Cult elders, Wan Hun Douluo and Zan Evil, surrounded them.

Wanhun Douluo sighed, "The titled Douluos have all been taken by the sect leader and his followers. We can only devour Soul Douluos and Soul Saints now. Alas."

The Hateful Douluo grinned, "You're lucky to have anything to eat. If you don't like it, I can serve you, hahaha."

Wanhun Douluo cursed, "Get lost! I'm starving, I don't need you to do it for me."

As soon as he finished speaking, a red light flashed in the eyes of the Ten Thousand Souls Douluo, and he slapped the White Tiger Duke.

Dai Hao, a mere peak-level Soul Douluo, was no match for the elders of the Holy Spirit Cult; the battle was one-sided.

Dai Hao watched helplessly as his personal guards fell one after another while protecting him, his eyes wide with fury.

Wanhun Douluo pulled out another claw and grabbed at Dai Hao.

At this critical moment of life and death, Dai Hao's deputy, a Soul Douluo powerhouse, pushed Dai Hao aside and desperately blocked a grab from the Holy Spirit Cult elder for him. His Martial Soul True Body was shattered, and his heart was ripped out in the process.

The lieutenant cried out in anguish, "Your Grace, you must leave!"

"Trying to run? Haha, a peak Contra Douluo, trying to escape from me? What a joke."

The Soul Douluo crushed the vice general's heart with a single claw, then absorbed his soul into the Martial Soul Banner of Ten Thousand Souls.

The abomination immediately said, "Ten Thousand Souls Douluo, you can take this Soul Douluo's soul, but you can't take the other one."

Wanhun Douluo glanced at Dai Hao and said with dissatisfaction, "One is a beginner Soul Douluo, and the other is a peak Soul Douluo. How can they be compared?!"

After discussion, the Abomination Douluo finally agreed to give the Myriad Souls Douluo a few Soul Saints to make up for the price difference.

Although the Soul Douluo and the Abomination Douluo were discussing, their hands were constantly moving.

The number of guards and powerful figures around Dai Hao decreased rapidly at a visible speed. After the discussion, only Dai Hao and two Soul Saints remained alive.

Dai Hao felt an unprecedented sense of humiliation as he looked at the evil spirit master who treated him like an object and haggled over his price.

They immediately resolved to fight to the death to injure the enemy.

A white tiger, several tens of meters in size, roared and charged towards the Abomination Douluo.

A moment later, Dai Hao's body lay on the ground, his head with a large hole, red and white fluids flowing all over the ground.

The Abomination Douluo licked the blood and brain matter off his hands, then devoured Dai Hao's soul and flesh.

After devouring Dai Hao, the aura of the Abomination Douluo surged, and its soul power broke through from level 91 to level 92.

The Demon Lord of Hatred immediately roared to the sky, "Hahaha, that's exhilarating, exhilarating, so exhilarating!!"

Seeing that the Soul Douluo's soul power had broken through to the next level, the Soul Douluo was so envious that his mouth watered. He immediately absorbed the souls of the other two Soul Saints into the Soul Douluo Banner.

The sun sets in the west, and the setting sun is like blood.

In an instant, a bloody feast resounded in the fortress, as the evil spirit masters wantonly devoured souls and flesh.

The entire fortress was turned into a living hell...

--------

A day later, the Star Luo Empire's court was shaken.

"Report! The Mingdou Mountain Fortress has fallen, and the garrison has been completely wiped out! Duke White Tiger has died in battle, Giant Strength Douluo has died in battle, Heavenly Fiend Douluo has died in battle... Only Lord Shattered Star Douluo escaped with serious injuries."

The entire court was in an uproar. Emperor Xu Jiawei suddenly stood up: "What? Could it be that the Sun Moon Empire has launched a war?!"

The intelligence officer answered tremblingly, "I don't know. All I know is that they are a very powerful evil spirit master force. After occupying the fortress, they are advancing into the interior. Wherever they go... rivers of blood flow."

Xu Jiawei's face turned ashen as he roared, "Immediately request assistance from Shrek Academy! Shrek Academy monitors the entire continent; they must take care of so many evil soul masters!"
