Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Black Dragon, I am the Lord of the Gods

……

The Demon Emperor frowned slightly. "What old method?"

"Isn't it connected to the royal family of the Sun Moon Empire?" Xuanming said.

"If the royal family were to face annihilation, could it stand idly by?"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Tian and the Demon Emperor instantly understood Xuan Ming's plan.

This is indeed the most effective method at present. The Evil Emperor needs the Sun and Moon Empire to provide him with resources and soul nourishment, and he will never stand idly by and watch his "puppet" and "granary" be destroyed.

"You mean the old way? Do you do this kind of thing often?" The Demon Emperor raised an eyebrow slightly.

“No, strictly speaking, I’ve only used it once,” Xuanming said.

The Demon Emperor had a bad feeling. "When?"

"Cough cough!" Di Tian coughed heavily twice, interrupting Xuan Ming.

Some things are better left unsaid.

"Why are you interrupting me? It's not like it's anything shameful," Xuanming said.

The Demon Emperor frowned deeply. "What exactly is going on?"

Xuan thought for a moment, "We've come to the Demon Forest to find the Evil Emperor, and we dare not venture too deep for fear that it will escape. Similarly, do you think I have any way to deal with the Deep Sea Demon Whale King if it wants to escape?"

The Demon Emperor's face darkened. "You wouldn't be using my child to threaten me..."

“It’s just as you think,” Xuanming said.

Trying to catch the Deep Sea Demon Whale King in the ocean is as unrealistic as trying to catch the Blue Silver Emperor in the Blue Silver Forest.

If the Deep Sea Demon Whale King runs away as soon as it arrives, no one can stop it unless the Sea God himself comes!
The Demon Emperor's face instantly turned so dark it could drip water, and the deep purple destructive energy around him, which had finally calmed down, surged uncontrollably again, making the surrounding air seem thick and cold.

"You...you actually dared to use my child..." The Demon Emperor's voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, filled with barely suppressed killing intent.

She finally understood why her husband had "voluntarily" sacrificed himself! It was blatant coercion!

“Don’t misunderstand, I kidnapped your child just to prevent it from running away, not for this matter…” Xuanming paused.

"No, strictly speaking, I threatened him with the safety of you and your daughter."

"..." Di Tian.

Can you please stop explaining?!

If I explain any further, we'll really start fighting!
The deep purple energy surging around the Demon Queen was almost solidifying into flames. She stared intently at Xuan Ming and asked, word by word, "Say it again?"

Di Tian felt a chill run down his spine and quickly stepped forward to stand between the two, saying in a deep voice, "Demon Emperor! Calm down! The situation was special at the time, and Xuan Ming was only trying to ensure that the Deep Sea Demon Whale King could be kept alive to fulfill the subsequent agreement! Besides, the child is safe in the Lake of Life now, isn't that the most important thing?"

As he spoke, Di Tian transmitted his thoughts to the Demon Emperor through his mental power, "Don't act rashly. Even a true god might not be able to defeat him now. If you make a move rashly, he can then rightfully hang you on his body. Even if you don't want to live anymore, think about your child. Do you want your child to become an orphan?"

The Demon Emperor fell silent, and the anger around him slowly subsided.

“You could have just said it directly, there was no need to sneak around,” Xuanming said. Di Tian looked completely bewildered. “You heard that?”

“Within my mental domain, I can clearly hear any mental fluctuations, including mental transmissions,” Xuanming said.

"You... are somewhat burying your head in the sand."

"..." Di Tian.

"..." Demon Emperor.

……

Above the imperial city of the Sun and Moon Empire.

This is a giant city with a style completely different from Douluo Continent. The towering towers shimmer with the unique light of soul tools, and all kinds of strange soul-guided vehicles shuttle through the streets.

However, at this moment, this bustling imperial city was shrouded in an invisible, suffocating pressure.

Xuanming's figure appeared silently high above the imperial city. His black robes fluttered slightly in the sea breeze. He made no movement and did not deliberately release his aura, but the oppressive feeling derived from the level of life and absolute power had already plunged the entire city into deathly silence.

"Woo——! Wu——!"

The piercing alarm instantly resounded throughout the city! Countless soul-guided turrets embedded in the buildings quickly adjusted their direction, their dark muzzles all aimed at the uninvited guests in the sky.

The Soul Master Guards were on high alert, taking to the air and forming a defensive formation, but no one dared to approach easily.

A powerful aura surged from the depths of the palace, and an elderly man with white hair and beard, clad in an elaborate and ornate Soul Master robe, appeared opposite Xuan Ming. He was surrounded by nine Soul Rings, clearly a level 98 peak Douluo—the very pillar of the Sun Moon Empire—the Imperial Grand Tutor!
"Who are you? Why are you trespassing into the imperial city of my Sun Moon Empire? Do you know that this is a serious crime?" The Grand Preceptor's voice was loud and clear, attempting to infuse his voice with soul power to intimidate the intruder and at the same time stabilize the morale of the people in the city.

Xuanming didn't even look at him; his gaze seemed to pierce through the layers of buildings below, landing on the very heart of the palace. He merely glanced at the Grand Preceptor's question casually.

Just this one glance!
The temperature between heaven and earth plummeted! It was as if even the air was frozen instantly! The extreme cold did not spread, but rather condensed precisely, like an invisible scepter of ice pointing down from the sky.

The dignified air on the face of the level 98 national advisor had not yet faded, but his pupils were already filled with endless icy blue.

He couldn't even activate his soul skill. His entire body, along with the space within dozens of meters around him, was instantly frozen inside a huge, crystal-clear iceberg that exuded absolute zero cold!
quiet!
Absolute silence!
Inside the imperial city, whether they were Soul Masters or commoners, everyone looked up, mouths agape, staring blankly at the floating iceberg in the sky and the clear figure at its center.

The empire's strongest guardian, the Imperial Advisor, hailed as a demigod, was actually... frozen by a single glance from the other party?
Panic, like a flood bursting its banks, instantly engulfed the entire city. Screams, cries, and chaotic running filled the air. Faced with absolute power, so-called order and authority proved utterly fragile.

Deep within the palace, the emperor and the core elders, who witnessed this scene through a special large-scale observation soul guide, turned deathly pale and felt their bodies go cold.

“Not a strongman from our continent! He’s from overseas! He’s the legendary… Peerless Douluo!” An elder’s voice trembled with despair.

"What exactly does he want?" The young emperor clenched his fists so tightly that his nails almost dug into his flesh.

Regardless of the other party's purpose, the royal family is now at a critical juncture of life and death.

Without further hesitation, the emperor practically roared the order: "Activate the Dark Sun Protocol! Contact the Holy Emperor immediately! Quickly!"

Deep beneath the palace, in a secret chamber, a strange soul-guiding device with an ancient design and inlaid with a huge purple gem was instantly activated. It emitted a faint yet extremely penetrating spiritual fluctuation, rippling out in circles of invisible waves that traversed space at a speed beyond perception, rapidly spreading towards the core area of ​​the Demon Forest.

This is the highest level of communication between the Sun and Moon Royal Family and the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler, signifying that the Empire has encountered an irresistible catastrophe!

They firmly believed that, as the true ruler and guardian of the empire, the Holy King would never stand idly by and watch his empire be destroyed. (End of Chapter)
