Douluo Continent: I teach and nurture students at Tianshui Academy!

However, the elders, consecrators, and pope of the Spirit Hall remained calm and composed, showing no panic at all due to this sudden change. Everything was within their expectations, and they were just waiting for the Demon Soul Sect.

Gu Shenge looked at the crimson pillars of light and murmured, "Has it finally arrived?"

The angels who had been singing praises also descended to the ground, guarding the area around the grand altar. The Templar Knights gripped their lances tightly, their sharp, eagle-like eyes scanning the surroundings.

Representatives from numerous Soul Master factions all possessed Martial Souls. Bone Douluo immediately stood in front of Ning Fengzhi and Ning Rongrong to prevent the Demon Soul Cult from attacking them.

Bibi Dong looked at the magic-suppressing array that covered the sky above the central square. The strange power it emitted was so familiar. Her beautiful eyes showed a look of surprise. It was the magic-suppressing domain of the City of Slaughter!

He could feel that his martial spirit was still intact, but he couldn't use his soul skills. However, it was far inferior to the magic-suppressing domain of the Slaughter City.

Even though she was limited by the Rakshasa God's test and couldn't unleash her full power, breaking through the restriction was just a piece of cake.

However, this also confirms that the Demon Soul Cult, those vile bats, are indeed connected to the Slaughter City!

Within each of the forty-nine crimson pillars of light stood a Soul Saint of the Demon Soul Sect, holding a stone tablet inscribed with mysterious patterns, continuously pouring their soul power into it to maintain this pseudo-anti-magic domain.

Just as everyone was on guard, five figures rose into the air from the audience seats. Each of them exuded a powerful aura, with overwhelming pressure. They were surrounded by nine soul rings: three had two yellow, three purple, and four black rings, and the other two had two yellow, two purple, and five black rings.

Three strong men with different tattoos on their bodies, a beautiful and alluring woman, and an old man.

Their appearance instantly attracted everyone's attention, and many people showed expressions of shock. Although they all knew that the Demon Soul Church had sent powerful figures to cause trouble, they never expected that they would send five Title Douluos!

Qian Daoliu and the other elders looked at the five elders of the Demon Soul Sect with disdain in their eyes. How dare five titled Douluo who had been forcibly enhanced by secret techniques cause trouble in his Spirit Hall? They were courting death!

Master Qian felt the magic-suppressing restriction imposed on him. With his strength, breaking through this restriction would be easy. Not only him, but other enshrined elders would also break through the restriction in a short time.

It has an impact, but not a significant one.

"Hmph, the Spirit Hall is nothing special. It has to kneel under the magic-suppressing domain."

Among the five elders of the Demon Soul Sect in mid-air, a middle-aged man with black bear tattoos and an extremely burly physique was arrogant and disdainful of everyone. Relying on his anti-magic domain, he began to spout nonsense.

His words instantly enraged all the Spirit Hall's Soul Masters, who glared angrily at the burly man. Some Soul Master factions that were at odds with the Spirit Hall secretly chuckled, thinking, "So this is what happens to the Spirit Hall."

On the high platform, Light Feather Douluo was the first to lose his temper and was about to make a move, but was stopped by Azure Phoenix Douluo.

"Fifth brother, don't forget what the Grand Elder promised Xiao Gu."

Upon hearing this, Light Feather Douluo could only suppress his anger for the time being, while speeding up his breakthrough of the magic-suppressing restriction. If Gu Shenge could not deal with these five guys, he would shoot them dead immediately!

Bibi Dong looked at Gu Shenge with concern. Could he handle five Title Douluos? Meanwhile, the restrictions within her body had already been easily broken.

Gu Shenge raised her head slightly and looked at the five elders of the Demon Soul Sect who had finally appeared. Instead of panicking, she showed joy. Well done! Five Title Douluos. Killing them would be enough to make her famous throughout the continent.

"Old man, leave these five guys to me."

"Okay, remember, if you can't handle it, remember to call us."

Qian Daoliu didn't take the five Title Douluos seriously at all. To put it bluntly, the Demon Soul Sect was just an evil soul master organization that had only been around for a few decades. If they hadn't been so good at hiding, they would have been wiped out by the Spirit Hall long ago.

The Spirit Hall's millennia-old foundation is beyond the comprehension of the Demon Soul Sect. Even if the Demon Soul Sect were to launch a full-scale attack on this investiture ceremony, they would only face total annihilation.

If Gu Shenge hadn't wanted to use them to make a name for himself, Qian Daoliu would have already killed these five guys the moment they showed up.

On the other side, Ning Fengzhi looked around the square. Although the Spirit Masters from the Spirit Hall all showed indignation.

However, among the high-ranking members of the Spirit Hall, apart from the Fifth Elder who was somewhat unable to contain himself, the other elders, deities, and even the Pope were surprisingly calm, seemingly not taking the disturbances caused by the five Title Douluos of the Demon Soul Sect to heart.

They're waiting for the rabbit to run into their trap!

Ning Fengzhi instantly understood. The news that the Demon Soul Sect was going to cause trouble at the ceremony had spread throughout Martial Soul City. How could the Martial Soul Hall be completely unprepared? They were waiting for the Demon Soul Sect to show their faces.

Although the barrier erected by the Demon Soul Sect restricted their use of soul skills, this restriction was not permanent, Ning Fengzhi asked Bone Douluo.

"Uncle Bone, how are you feeling?"

"Give me a few more minutes, and I can break through this barrier."

As expected, this restriction did not have much impact on Title Douluos, and they could break through it with some time.

Ning Fengzhi's eyes gleamed with wisdom. It seemed that the Spirit Hall was deliberately luring the Demon Soul Sect into a trap by holding such a grand investiture ceremony to establish its authority over them!

In recent years, the Spirit Hall has indeed lost a lot of prestige due to the Demon Soul Cult.

If we kill these five Title Douluos of the Demon Soul Cult today, it will surely enhance the prestige of the Spirit Hall once again.

What a good calculation!

However, the Demon Soul Cult's goal this time was not to cause widespread destruction to the Spirit Hall, otherwise it wouldn't just be five Title Douluos attacking, but also its followers.

The five elders of the Demon Soul Sect focused their gazes on Gu Shenge, their killing intent fully revealed. Without the slightest hesitation, they attacked Gu Shenge simultaneously, seeking only to kill him as quickly as possible!

They also knew that the pseudo-anti-magic domain did not have much of a restriction on titled Douluo, so the Demon Soul Sect's goal had always been Gu Shenge.

Killing him in front of all the Soul Masters on the continent during the conferment ceremony held by the Spirit Hall would not only eliminate a peerless genius, but also severely humiliate the Spirit Hall.

Gu Shenge wanted to use the Demon Soul Sect to establish his prestige and fame, while the Demon Soul Sect wanted to use him to slap the Spirit Hall in the face. Both sides wanted to use the other for their own purposes.

A battle is imminent!

(Regarding Bibi Dong's character setting, I saw on Baidu that she reached level 99 in her forties, which is largely related to the fact that twin martial souls can improve their soul power by absorbing powerful soul beast soul rings. However, due to the limitations of the Rakshasa God's assessment, she could only exert level 98 soul power. I'm using this setting, so please don't criticize me.)

Chapter 26: Haoyang's name overshadows Haotian!

From beginning to end, the Spirit Hall never took the Demon Soul Sect seriously. Today's disturbance and attack was nothing but a joke to the Spirit Hall, just a stepping stone for Gu Shenge to make a name for herself.

Qian Daoliu waved his hand, signaling the female angels of the Angel Legion to retreat. The Templar Knights also withdrew at his signal to avoid being caught in the crossfire.

Seeing this, Ning Fengzhi became even more convinced that the Spirit Hall was fishing for the Demon Soul Sect, and that they had caught a big one.

If these five elders of the Demon Soul Sect were to die here, it would not only enhance the prestige of the Spirit Hall, but also be a great loss to the Demon Soul Sect.

"Uncle Bone, there's a good show to watch."

Bone Douluo also noticed something amiss and nodded in agreement. Not only them, but also many representatives of other Soul Master factions saw something wrong. The reactions of the elders and elders of the Spirit Hall were too indifferent, and they all became suspicious.

Some representatives of the Soul Master factions who wanted to escape also stopped thinking about it and prepared to see what the Spirit Hall was really up to.

From the back of the audience, Leng Qishuang saw five Title Douluos about to attack Gu Shenge, her eyes filled with worry, and she frantically circulated her soul power to break through the magic-suppressing restriction.

Under the pseudo-magic-forbidden domain, all Soul Masters were affected, except for the five elders of the Demon Soul Cult, who were not restricted and could still use their Soul Skills.

As the saying goes, those involved are often confused, while bystanders see things clearly. The five troublemakers were completely unaware that they had stepped into the Spirit Hall's scheme and continued to act according to their plan.

"Haoyang Douluo, blame your bad luck for having to hold such a grand investiture ceremony."

In mid-air, the burly man with bear-like markings seemed to be the leader of this operation. He let out a low roar, and a rock demon bear spirit behind him roared to the sky, its large bear paws patting its chest. Powerful soul energy swept across the clear sky, causing the air to vibrate and ripple. The spirits of the other four elders of the Demon Soul Sect also manifested.

Devouring Python, Filthy Black Water, Illusionary Demon Fox, Blood Demon Scythe!

Without the slightest hesitation, and with the intention of a swift victory, the five Title Douluos simultaneously attacked Gu Shenge. Their powerful soul energy surged like waves or a volcanic eruption, unleashing their eighth soul skill in one strike, all for the purpose of killing Gu Shenge in one blow!

"Eighth Soul Skill: Meteorite Star!"

The bear-patterned strongman roared, and with the support of his eighth soul skill, the Rock Demon Bear Martial Soul transformed into a massive rock bear as large as a small mountain, like a celestial star that fell from the Cretaceous period, crashing down to earth to crush and destroy everything!

"Eighth Soul Skill: Soul Devouring by Ten Thousand Pythons!"

"Eighth Soul Skill: Black Tide!"

The endless, monstrous, heaven-devouring pythons surged like a tidal wave, accompanied by surging, foul waters. The snakes and waters mingled, defiling people, eroding martial spirits, and devouring everything, as if they wanted to drown Gu Shenge in this surging black tide and devour him completely!

At the same time, the Illusionary Fox opened her third illusionary eye, and her strange and magical spiritual power transformed into countless illusions that enveloped Gu Shenge, as if to make him forever sink into this dreamlike bubble, unable to extricate himself.

Eighth Soul Skill: Illusory Bubble Annihilation!

"Eighth Soul Skill - Bloodlust!"

However, hidden within the illusion lies a terrifying killing intent. A horrifying crimson scythe cleaves through the sky, transcending spatial boundaries, aimed directly at his neck, attempting to decapitate him with a single blow!

The simultaneous unleashing of the eighth soul skills by the five titled Douluo was like an overwhelming force, so powerful that even the elders and enshrined members of the Spirit Hall felt a sense of unease. The soul masters present quickly reinforced their soul power defenses, layer upon layer, in an attempt to withstand the aftershocks of the five soul skills!

Seeing Gu Shenge being besieged, Bibi Dong's beautiful face showed a hint of anxiety. She subconsciously raised her leg to rush down and block this wave of attacks for him, but then she heard Qian Daoliu's voice in her ear again.

"Trust him, he can handle it."

This forced Bibi Dong to stop her steps and nervously watch Gu Shenge. If something really happened to him, she vowed that she would slaughter the Demon Soul Sect even if she had to search the entire continent!

Even with the five great soul skills, Gu Shenge's figure still shone like the sun. He remained calm even when Mount Tai leaped in front of him. Even though there was a dark abyss ahead, he was still fearless. Under everyone's watchful eyes, Gu Shenge leaped straight towards the five great soul skills!

This scene stunned everyone. Not only did he not dodge, but he actually rushed forward to take the hit head-on. Was Haoyang Douluo scared out of his wits?

The five members of the Demon Soul Sect grinned as they watched Gu Shenge charge straight at them with her ultimate attack. Wasn't this just courting death?

However, their expressions changed the next moment when a clear yet contemptuous voice rang out, echoing in everyone's ears.

"Hmph! You mere ants dare to lay a finger on Haoyang!"

A surge of even more intense and vast soul power erupted, and under the light of the five great soul skills, Gu Shenge appeared like a god in the mortal world. His handsome face was extremely arrogant, looking down on all living beings. The ninth soul ring around his body lit up, radiating a bright red and eerie light. A golden pillar of light that reached the heavens and the earth rose from the ground, piercing through the world!

In order to eliminate these five elders of the Demon Soul Cult as quickly and spectacularly as possible, Gu Shenge unleashed her ninth soul skill with all her soul power, aiming to kill them in one move!

"Ninth Soul Skill: Golden Crow Dances Under the Sun, Divine Fire Refines Heaven and Earth!"

A cry that pierced the heavens and resounded throughout the world echoed, causing the temperature of the entire plaza and even the entire Martial Soul City to rise suddenly. A three-legged golden crow soared into the sky, spreading its wings and swooping across the heavens, dancing in the firmament. Feathers of divine fire fell from the sky, and a blazing sun rose slowly as it danced, burning with raging divine flames, eternal and everlasting, burning and refining the heavens and earth!

The golden crow dances in the blazing sun, divine fire refines heaven and earth.

The sun shines brightly in the nine heavens, and all things bow their heads!

Meteorites, celestial stars, black tides, and soul skills—all are futile before the eternal and supreme Haoyang, and all vanish into nothingness!

The terrifyingly high temperature, capable of burning mountains and boiling seas, melted away the soul power defenses constructed by the soul masters in the square.

Sensing the intense heat, Qian Daoliu could no longer stand idly by. He unleashed his powerful soul force, enveloping the entire plaza once more to resist the onslaught of the high temperatures.

Faced with Gu Shenge's ninth soul skill, the eighth soul skills unleashed simultaneously by the five titled Douluos instantly vanished into nothingness.

On this day, the Golden Crow spread its wings and soared through the nine heavens, carrying terrifying divine flames that could burn everything. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, and in the horrified and incredulous gazes of the five elders of the Demon Soul Sect, it burned them to ashes!

A single, decisive blow!!

They never expected that Gu Shenge would not be suppressed by the pseudo-anti-magic field, because the sun is not suppressed by any field!

The five titled Douluo didn't even have time to scream before they perished under this unimaginable ninth soul skill.

Only the bright sun hangs high in the sky, and the golden crow soars into the sky.

Everything happened so suddenly that the Soul Masters present hadn't even had time to react. Looking at the scene in the sky, their eyes revealed astonishment, horror, shock, and deep awe.

Even the elders and elders of the Spirit Hall were stunned. They had expected a great battle, but the matter was resolved so easily that they even suspected that the five Title Douluos were fake!

But the power of those five soul skills couldn't be faked. It wasn't that they were too weak, but that Gu Shenge was too strong!
