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

Chapter 350 A Terrifying Speculation

After a careful yet meticulous investigation, several top-tier Title Douluos from the three great empires, relying on their rich experience and powerful perception, roughly reconstructed the traces left behind by this tragic battlefield.

The conclusion is staggering—that magnificent city, which stood for millennia and was hailed as the largest on the continent, has been completely erased in a physical sense.

At the same time, they also discovered the chaotic traces left by a large number of soul beasts when they fled in panic towards the Star Dou Great Forest, as well as countless soul beast corpses along the way, which undoubtedly confirmed the authenticity of the beast tide and the heavy losses it suffered.

"The only thing that is uncertain now is whether Mingfeng Douluo Yan Shaozhe, Martial God Douluo Xian Lin'er, and Wulong Douluo Qian Duoduo are alive or dead."

The voice of the Eagle Douluo carried a hint of weariness and regret that was barely perceptible.

"And then... how exactly did this apocalyptic scene come about?"

Tianyang Douluo frowned, his face extremely solemn. He squatted down, grabbed a handful of charred soil containing strange energy, carefully sensed it, and then let it slip through his fingers.

"Could it be... a level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell? But that doesn't make sense! Apart from the Sun Moon Empire, none of our three great empires have such a strategic weapon of mass destruction, and the soul beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest are even less likely to possess it."

He stood up, surveyed the endless devastation, and his voice grew increasingly low.

"Moreover, look at the extent of the destruction and the level of calm... To wipe Shrek City and its defense system off the map so completely, leaving nothing but barren land, creating this... this near-annihilation effect, would probably require at least fifty level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells to detonate simultaneously at a single point. That's simply impossible."

"Ha ha……"

A titled Douluo from the Douling Empire chuckled dryly, trying to break the suffocatingly heavy atmosphere.

"It couldn't possibly be that Shrek Academy used fifty level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells on its own, could it?"

However, his joke received no response; the surroundings remained deathly silent, with only the wind howling above the abyss.

The titled Douluo awkwardly touched his nose and wisely shut his mouth.

Everyone present was in a somber mood, and no one had the slightest intention of making jokes.

At this moment, a titled Douluo from the Heavenly Soul Empire seemed to remember something and spoke up: "On our way here, we encountered many convoys of civilians evacuating from the direction of Shrek City. When we asked them, they only said that they had received an emergency notice from Shrek Academy and were arranged to evacuate. However, they knew nothing about what happened in the city afterward. They only knew that when they left, the alarms were blaring and the energy fluctuations in the distance were terrifying."

Upon hearing this, Tianyang Douluo thoughtfully stroked his chin.

"Arranging for the evacuation of civilians... this shows that the higher-ups at Shrek Academy at least foresaw that the city might not be able to be defended and made worst-case scenario plans and personnel evacuations in advance. If that's the case, they must have a backup plan. The core strength of the academy... there might still be survivors."

There was a gleam in his eyes.

"If we can find the survivors, we might be able to unravel all the mysteries that happened here."

"Look again more carefully."

The Eagle Douluo said in a deep voice, his gaze as sharp as an eagle's, carefully sensing every trace of energy fluctuation remaining in the air.

"Also, pay attention to the remaining power around here... It's extremely domineering, full of pure destructive intent, and... It's extremely strange."

As the Super Douluo with the highest cultivation level and the most acute senses present, his feelings were the most profound.

He stretched out his hand, his fingertips swirling with faint soul power, and carefully touched the subtle energy ripples in the air that had not yet completely dissipated, a deep sense of confusion and apprehension appearing on his face.

"This doesn't resemble the residual energy from any known soul tool explosion... It lacks that violent and chaotic feeling; instead, it's more like... an extreme, destructive power... If I had to describe it..."

Sky Eagle Douluo raised his head and looked up at the deep sky, his tone filled with disbelief.

"It's more like the impact of a giant meteorite falling from the sky, imbued with a destructive intent?"

"How can it be?!"

Tianyang Douluo almost blurted it out, his brows furrowed, and he shook his head vigorously, completely disbelieving the speculation.

"Even if it was a meteorite falling from the sky, how could it be such a coincidence that it hit Shrek City exactly on its own? And if it was a meteorite impact, what about the meteorite fragments? Even the most ordinary iron meteorite debris should have left some traces, right?"

He pointed to the smooth, bottomless, pitch-black abyss below, and the scorched earth around him, lifeless and seemingly drained of all life by some force, his tone becoming increasingly certain.

"Look at this scene. It doesn't look like anything you'd expect after a meteorite impact. Every meteorite fall leaves behind craters and scattered fragments, sometimes even creating new mineral veins. But here? There's nothing but destruction. It's eerily clean." He found it increasingly absurd, even adopting a self-deprecating tone.

"It's impossible that some being could have conjured a meteorite with their bare hands, then precisely smashed it down, unleashing all their power at the moment of impact to completely annihilate the meteorite along with the entire Shrek City, leaving not a trace behind, right?"

Tianyang Douluo glanced around at the other Title Douluos who also looked doubtful, and shrugged.

"That kind of power...excuse my bluntness, even the legendary gods probably couldn't achieve such perfection and...'cleanliness,' right? How could such an inconceivable existence exist on the Douluo Continent?"

"It's pointless for us to speculate here."

Just then, Huang Jinxu, the Heavenly Fiend Douluo of the Star Luo Empire, slowly put down the communication soul tool he had been holding tightly. His face was unusually pale, and his voice was low and hoarse.

"We just received news that our Third Soul Master Legion's vanguard encountered... a group of Shrek Academy survivors on their way here. Judging from their attire, they should be inner court disciples. They are being escorted this way by the legion."

"found it!"

Tianyang Douluo raised an eyebrow, a look of "I knew it" flashing in his eyes.

"I knew it. Shrek Academy's millennia-old heritage could not be so easily destroyed. There must be a spark left behind."

This news put his mind at ease. As long as the survivors were found, especially core members like the inner court disciples, all the mysteries might be solved.

However, no one noticed that when Huang Jinxu, the Heavenly Fiend Douluo, reported this news, his gaze subconsciously swept over the dark abyss again, and a trace of suppressed fear, almost overflowing, flashed deep in his eyes.

His martial soul is the extremely special Heavenly Fiend Lone Star, which gives him a far more acute perception of the power of stars than ordinary people.

Just now, at the edge of that desolate abyss, he clearly sensed two intertwined auras that sent shivers down his spine.

One was an unknown power filled with coldness, evil, and a pure will to destroy, while the other... was strangely familiar to him.

That is the vast and desolate power of stars, unique to the outer heavens.

In other words, the seemingly absurd guess of the Eagle Douluo... is very likely true!
The culprit that caused Shrek City's complete disappearance was very likely a "meteorite".

But it was precisely because he sensed this that Huang Jinxu felt a chill to the bone.

Because no meteorite fragments remained.

what does this mean?
This means that the meteorite was simultaneously annihilated by some even more terrifying force the instant it completed its destructive mission.

This is definitely not a natural disaster.

The thought of some unknown, terrifying being capable of manipulating or even creating meteorites and perfectly controlling their power made Huang Jinxu feel as if his blood was freezing.

This method was completely beyond his comprehension. In his understanding, perhaps only the ethereal gods could do it?
For ten thousand years, no divine miracles have been seen in the Douluo Continent, and Huang Jinxu has no way of knowing just how powerful the gods are.

But he was certain of one thing: even the Beast God Di Tian, ​​who was known as the strongest person on the continent and the leader of the Ten Ferocious Beasts, absolutely did not have such terrifying power to change the world and destroy a city with a single thought.

If Di Tian had such ability, why would the Soul Beast race need to cower in the Star Dou Great Forest?

Before long, a dense mass of people appeared on the distant horizon, numbering in the thousands.

As they drew closer, it became clear that the Star Luo Empire's Soul Master Legion was escorting a group of young people, whose clothes were slightly disheveled but whose demeanor was extraordinary, as they hurried towards them.

The group at the head were none other than the surviving Shrek Academy disciples, including Golden Crow Saintess Wu Ming, Chu Qingtian, Hua Yao, Mo Xuan, and Ye Liu.

"The academy...the academy...it's really...gone?!"

When Wu Ming and the others looked past the soldiers escorting them and clearly saw the enormous abyss that had replaced the magnificent city and was exuding an ominous death aura, her legs went weak, and she collapsed to her knees with a thud. All the color drained from her pretty face, leaving only endless blankness and bewilderment.

Not only him, but also Chu Qingtian, Hua Yao, Mo Xuan, Ye Liu... all the inner court disciples who were lucky enough to survive were struck dumb the moment they saw their homes and homeland completely destroyed. Their faces were filled with indescribable grief and disbelief.
