Douluo Unrivaled: The Beginning Materializes the Black Abyss and White Flowers

Chapter 346 A Glimmer of Hope in Desperate Circumstances
"boom!!!!!!"

As the Phoenix of Light approached the bottom of the Star of Destruction, it frantically compressed all of its soul power, life force, and even the very essence of its soul.

He seemed to transform into a tiny sun, burning intensely and trying to dispel the darkness.

A terrifying energy surge swept across all directions.

The next moment, as the soul core within Yan Shaozhe's body, which embodied his life's cultivation, completely collapsed and instantly expanded, a thunderous sound, like a nuclear explosion, resounded throughout the world.

The destructive energy generated by the self-destructing soul core, like the massive explosion of a star upon its demise, transformed into a rapidly expanding golden sphere of light that slammed into the falling star of destruction.

Rumble——! ! !
The unstoppable downward momentum of the Star of Destruction was actually slightly halted by this desperate strike.

The rock layer on its surface, which had been enhanced by the destructive energy, was even blasted with countless tiny cracks, and countless small fragments attached to it were scattered and flew everywhere.

However, that’s all.

Although the brilliance generated by Yan Shaozhe's self-destruction was magnificent and dazzling, it was too short-lived.

Before that thousand-meter-tall star representing god-level destructive power, the light of this attack was like a fleeting spark in an endless abyss of darkness. It shone for only a moment of tragic grandeur before being completely swallowed up and annihilated by the boundless darkness and destruction, leaving no trace.

Like a moth drawn to a flame, it is ultimately just a moth.

Huanlong watched all of this indifferently.

Although she has only recently taken over the Golden Tree as her physical body, her true status far surpasses that of this world.

According to the rules of Douluo Continent, she has already ascended to the position of a god, and based on the core of the Douluo Star Plane, she is a genuine first-level god with a divine power level exceeding 120.

This was only the beginning of her physical life; she had not yet fully adapted to or digested it.

Given time, her divine power level will rise at an alarming rate, possibly even breaking through the level 150 barrier and reaching the realm of God-King.

This is the terrifying foundation of the Great Lord of Annihilation. Even though he is not his true form at this moment, but only a memory, his power is still beyond the reach of ordinary people.

How could a strike from a first-level god be stopped in the slightest by a super Douluo's self-destruction that burns everything?
The Star of Destruction paused only slightly before continuing its relentless crushing of the desolate land below with even greater ferocity.

The true end has arrived.

"Shao Zhe, I understand!"

Cai Meier was in tears, overwhelmed by endless grief, but deep within that heart-wrenching pain, a sense of enlightenment and unwavering conviction burst forth.

She understood Yan Shaozhe's last look; it was not just a sacrifice born of despair, but also his final entrustment and expectation to her and everyone else.

The next moment, the vice dean of the Martial Soul Department, Yan Shaozhe's wife, suddenly unleashed her soul power like a burning star.

She transformed into a resolute arrow, closely following the path of her husband's disappearing light, and charged headlong into the destructive star that blotted out the sun.

"boom--!!!!!"

Another blazing sun burst forth fiercely against the dim sky.

The energy surge generated by Cai Meier's self-destruction of her soul core was no less intense and magnificent than Yan Shaozhe's. The light seemed to contain her lifelong perseverance, love, and reluctance to part, as well as her final roar.

However, this dazzling final sound only briefly halted the downward momentum of that thousand-meter-scale destructive star, and the exploding energy scattered and vanished in vain like waves crashing against a reef.

"Hahaha! Are old people actually more afraid of death than young people? They're really getting more and more like teenagers!"

Old Lin's aged yet relieved laughter suddenly broke the heavy sorrow.

A turquoise beam of light, imbued with a violent aura, shot into the sky, like a river of life flowing against the current, resolutely crashing into death.

"Hahaha, Shrek Academy, Beast King Douluo Gong Changlong is here!"

With fiery red hair and an ancient appearance, the bow-shaped dragon let out a deafening roar. As it soared into the sky, it transformed into a ferocious, roaring crimson dragon, burning its last breath as it charged into the heavens with its usual wildness and untamed spirit.

"Shixing, you're still young. Take the children with you and don't let our sacrifices be in vain!"

Elder Zhuang, the usually gentle healing-type Title Douluo, now had an extremely solemn expression.

He gave Shi Xing a deep look, left his final words of advice, and then radiated a pure, healing glow.

This light was not for healing, but to completely ignite the soul core and soul he had cultivated throughout his life.

Although he was not skilled in warfare, even his last rays of light could burst forth with a radiance that illuminated the heavens and the earth.

Xian Lin'er stared blankly at the direction where Yan Shaozhe had self-destructed and dissipated, then slowly turned her head to look at Qian Duoduo's cold and mangled corpse in the distance.

Past grudges, conflicts, and resentments suddenly seemed as light as dust at this moment, and a profound sense of relief and peace filled my heart.

Her days were numbered due to the burning of her life force, and the last trace of lingering affection in her eyes turned into resolute determination.

"Duoduo, wait for me."

She murmured softly, then transformed into a roaring blue flame dragon, its roar filled with liberation and unwavering resolve as it soared into the sky.

The moment Huanlong conjured stars and unleashed his world-destroying aura, Xiong Jun, the Demon King, and other ferocious beasts were terrified and frantically retreated, desperately trying to get away from that terrifying center.

However, just as Xiong Jun was fleeing in panic, he suddenly felt a cold gaze fall on him and subconsciously glanced back.

But what he saw was not an attack of hatred, but the figures of powerful humans, with a kind of determination he could not understand, like moths drawn to a flame, crashing one after another into the star of destruction that was enough to annihilate him.

At this moment, even though he utterly loathed and hated humans, his cruel, beastly eyes couldn't help but reveal an unprecedented shock, complexity, and even a hint of...respect. Brigitte also stared blankly at everything, her emerald eyes filled with indescribable emotions.

As a rare pacifist among soul beasts, she was hostile to humans, but the courage shown by the Shrek warriors at this moment—the courage to die for what they had left behind—left her with only pure admiration.

Perhaps... the reason why humanity has been able to rise again and again is because, even in dire straits, there are always souls that shine brightly.

Watching the resolute figures of Elder Lin, Elder Zhuang, Xian Lin'er, and Gong Changlong facing their deaths, Shi Xing felt a jolt in his heart and mind, and his soul trembled.

His martial soul is the Space-Time Silver Disc. If anyone is most likely to escape this natural disaster, it is none other than him.

But a bitter smile appeared on his face, which was then replaced by endless determination.

"Let it burn!"

He let out a low roar, and the spacetime disc above his head burst forth with an unprecedentedly dazzling silver light.

His life force and the essence of his soul were ignited at this moment, surging into his martial spirit without regard for the cost.

His hair turned gray at a visible rate, and his skin lost its luster, but he didn't care.

"Om-!"

The space trembled violently, and silver spatial power spread out like a tide, precisely enveloping all the remaining Shrek Academy disciples, led by Wu Ming.

"Lord Shixing!?"

Wu Ming and the others felt the spatial power surrounding them, and were suddenly awakened from their immense fear and despair, looking on in astonishment.

"Let's go!"

The voice, hoarse from excessive exertion, carried an undeniable firmness.

"You are Shrek's last hope. Remember, survive. Shrek's future... depends on you."

He had to burn his life and soul to unleash the power of the Space-Time Silver Disc to its fullest extent, to teleport so many people over extremely long distances, and to ensure that they had a chance to escape this certain death trap.

"No, Lord Shixing, we will not leave. We will live and die with the academy."

Wu Ming's eyes instantly turned red, and she screamed anxiously.

Shrek is their home; how could they abandon it and run away?

"This is an order."

The trend is to form hand seals, with faces contorted in extreme pain, yet still frantically squeezing out the last of their strength.

"Go find Elder Xuan and rebuild Shrek Academy."

Under the watchful eyes of Wu Ming and the others, who were sobbing uncontrollably and with bloodshot eyes, a burst of silver light suddenly erupted, completely enveloping them.

The next moment, space was forcibly torn apart, and a flash of silver light disappeared.

On the city wall, Wu Ming and other elite disciples of the inner academy vanished without a trace.

All that remained were the bewildered and wounded city defense soldiers, and Shi Xing, exhausted and utterly aged.

Having burned everything, even if he survived, his life would have come to an end.

"I'm sorry... this is all I can do..."

Shi Xing looked at the city defense soldiers who had followed him for many years, his eyes filled with deep apology and reluctance.

But he had no choice. Preserving the academy's legacy was the final instruction Yan Shaozhe gave with his life, and it was also the mission he had to complete.

"Lord City Lord, there is no need to apologize."

The adjutant who had always followed him shook his head, his gaze fixed firmly on the figures resolutely facing death high in the sky.

"We are willing to live and die with Shrek."

Even titled Douluo and Super Douluo have chosen to die bravely, so what do these soldiers have to fear?

To die at the hands of a god, perhaps, is also a kind of glory.

Upon hearing this, Shi Xing gave a bitter smile and said no more.

He longed to see everyone go, but he couldn't.

He finally mustered a sliver of his remaining soul power, which transformed into a faint silver light that shot into the sky, surprisingly catching up with Xian Lin'er and the others despite being behind.

In that moment of surpassing limits and burning everything, his bottleneck, which had been stagnant for many years, actually loosened, and his soul power level increased by one level.

But this breakthrough, at this moment, seems so pale and bleak.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom...!"

High in the sky, several suns burst forth one after another.

Elder Lin's emerald light, Elder Zhuang's pure healing radiance, Xian Lin'er's azure flame storm, Gong Changlong's crimson dragon roar, and Shi Xing's final spatial annihilation... The soul cores of the five powerful figures exploded simultaneously at different heights.
