Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul, the Dragon Abyss Sword, has become its scabbard.

Chapter 79 Revenge

Above the sky, Ding Quan and the others did not release their martial spirits, but flew directly towards a city from their memories.

The men's murderous aura was now impossible to conceal, but that was no big deal when it came to what they were about to do.

There were no large cities on the northwestern border of the Tiandou Empire, so the group didn't have to worry about being spotted in the air, allowing them to move extremely fast.

As Ding Quan had predicted, after spending a year in the City of Slaughter without absorbing the soul power of the Fallen Ones to enhance their own strength, their soul power level had only increased by about one level. However, upon arriving in the outside world, their bodies were like sponges, frantically absorbing the energy between heaven and earth.

In just half a day outside, all of them felt their soul power levels increase.

"Find that bat directly." After a long while, Ding Quan looked at the city not far away, his killing intent growing stronger.

"He should still be here."

The group went directly to a mountain forest not far from the city, the place where Ding Quan had killed the Blood Wolf Soul Saint.

Their purpose in coming here was clear: to find the evil soul master with the dark gold two-headed bat martial soul. Although their soul power had not increased much, their strength had undergone a tremendous change.

More importantly, Ling and Wei'er have cultivated the Sovereign Ruler, and their original aura is already very strong. In addition, their martial soul strength is already sufficient. They only need to accumulate enough power to form their own unique domain.

I originally thought this would take until I reached the Soul Saint stage, but now that I have the Killing God Domain, my aura is already sufficient.

The two of them have already shown signs of forming their own domains on their martial souls, and this has been happening recently.

Ling can now use simulation skills without releasing his martial soul, which is why the group is flying in the air.

Ding Quan sensed his own strength, as well as the rings formed by the soul rings on the Dragon Abyss Sword. He realized that even if he stopped consciously maintaining them, they would not transform into soul rings.

Even if I don't use my soul skills now, I can still use all the effects they carry, just not as powerful as when I release them. As for the consumption of soul power, now that my body's five elements are balanced, I don't need to worry about it at all when I'm frantically absorbing the energy of heaven and earth.

"Let's go." The group, dressed in cloaks, suppressed their murderous aura as much as possible and walked into the city as if nothing was amiss.

Walking down the street, Ding Quan looked at the people coming and going and took a deep breath. Otherwise, his eyes would always tend to look at other people's private parts, and people around him would instantly look away in fright once his gaze swept over them.

It seems that even though he tried to control his killing intent, some of it still managed to escape.

As night fell, Ding Quan gazed at the night outside, his golden-red Xuanhuo eyes looking with great interest at the largest building not far away—the Spirit Hall.

Under Xuanhuo Tong's gaze, there was actually a faint blood-red aura there, but it was much weaker than the aura inside the City of Slaughter.

But here, where there was no trace of blood anywhere else, that faint trace of blood was far too conspicuous.

"I never expected him to be hiding in the Spirit Hall here."

"Not only the Spirit Hall, but also there!" Ding Quan pointed to the equally tall building in the distance.

"They're also in the city lord's mansion. No wonder the people in this city were completely unaware of the large-scale wolf bandit gang."

"Yes, so what about us?"

Several people stood on the rooftop of a hotel, their murderous aura threatening to spread.

"We came here specifically for that bat, and now that we're here, there's no reason for us to let it go." Ding Quan suppressed the murderous intent emanating from him.

"Taking action would have a significant impact." Ling looked at the Spirit Hall and the city lord's mansion. The Spirit Hall, or the city lord appointed by the Heaven Dou Empire, represented two of the continent's top powers.

Every year, the Spirit Hall sends Spirit Masters to those villages to awaken the Spirits of children of the right age. The news of the wolf bandits could not be kept secret. Now it seems that the evil Spirit Master here is actually hiding in the Spirit Hall and has some connection with the city lord. It seems that the people here have suppressed this news.

"Let's just do it," Ding Quan said. It doesn't matter if it has a big impact, since the people from the Spirit Hall probably already know about our group's strength. After all, Hu Liena is probably already at the Spirit Hall, and our group's whereabouts have been exposed.

Although they could have eliminated Hu Liena at the time, she was not their enemy but their friend in the Killing City. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to leave the Killing City so quickly. Moreover, her identity was also unusual.

"Okay!"

The group instantly flew towards the Spirit Hall.

A dark basement.

An elderly man with a slightly hunched back and bloodshot eyes picked up a glass of dark red liquid and drank it all in one gulp, then a look of enjoyment appeared on his face.

Crimson soul power flowed through his body, and the intensity of the soul power began to increase, but it stopped abruptly after a moment, and the old man's face instantly turned crazed.

Upon arriving at a room, they found many people bound up, their faces extremely pale, with unhealed wounds on their arms.

These people were all Soul Masters, and their strength was not weak, but now it seems that they have become the old man's blood treasure.

"It really is a rat, hiding in a place like this."

Just as the old man was about to open his bat-like mouth to suck blood, a chilling white aura instantly enveloped the basement, and a cold voice came from not far away.

"Who!" Sensing the intense killing intent around him, the old man's expression changed drastically as he looked towards the entrance not far away.

"It's been a year, old bat, don't you recognize us anymore?"

"It's you! How could you possibly come out of there!" Three figures slowly walked in, the bat-like Soul Master's gaunt face filled with horror.

That place was a killing capital; very few people could emerge from there. Suddenly, he noticed a strong killing intent around him, as if he had just realized something.

"You are gods of death! But how is this possible?"

The evil soul master's expression of horror deepened. He knew something about the God of Slaughter, but how could one become a God of Slaughter in just over a year? Moreover, how could a few Soul Kings survive in that kind of place? Yet the intense killing intent emanating from them indicated that what he said was true.

"Congratulations, you got it right! That's why I came back to repay you." Ding Quanlongyuan Sword appeared in his hand, and then looked at the evil soul master who had not made any progress in a year.

A terrifying killing intent erupted from Ding Quan, and a pale white aura enveloped the entire basement.

"Domain of the God of Slaughter!"

The old man sensed the murderous aura surrounding him and the reduction in his strength, and his expression of shock disappeared.

"Attack!" Purple lightning erupted from Vera's body instantly, and terrifying lightning surged wildly in the small basement, heading towards the bat evil spirit master.

The surrounding environment began to freeze, and the cold air caused the temperature in the entire basement to drop sharply, which bats could not withstand.

The Dragon Abyss Sword flew directly toward the Bat Soul Master. The terrifying killing intent caused the evil Soul Master to release his Martial Soul. A perfect combination of two yellow, two purple, and three black Soul Rings appeared on his body, along with a dark gold two-headed bat.

Seeing Ding Quan thrust the Dragon Abyss Sword at him, the evil soul master, who was about to block it with his hand, suddenly remembered something. A black soul ring lit up on his body, and his body was instantly stained with blood red. Blood-red bats flew out from his body.

"That skill again!"

Ding Quan's expression remained unchanged. The golden ring on the Longyuan Sword lit up slightly, and the sword was tinged with golden light before it struck the opponent's body directly.

Bang!

"Ah~!"

The evil soul master was instantly struck by the Dragon Abyss Sword and turned into a pool of blood. Then, a swarm of bats flew out from them and just as they gathered not far from the group, bolts of purple lightning struck the large group of blood-red bats, causing his aura to plummet.

A huge wound appeared on the chest of the Bat Soul Master. How could he have such a soul skill!

It happened again. A year ago, when I was chasing these people all the way, it was the same. Now, they still managed to injure me in a single encounter. The difference is that this time I lost all ability to resist.

Seeing the purple lightning strike again, which seemed to be a perfect counter to him, he didn't hesitate and the outermost black spirit ring lit up.

Martial Soul True Form!

Seeing the lightning continuing to strike, the extreme damage it inflicted on him exceeded his expectations. Just being struck once reduced his strength significantly, so he decisively activated his Martial Soul True Body.

A bat with a wingspan of over ten meters appeared in the confined space. A powerful surge of soul energy erupted, shattering the ceiling of the entire basement, and the bat instantly flew out.

"Trying to leave!" Ice blades shot out instantly. Just as the dark gold bat was about to use its soul power to defend itself, a dark gold sword light struck its two heads directly.

It was a psychological attack by Ding Quan.

The massive body froze instantly, and ice blades whistled out, tearing the bat's huge fleshy wings to shreds in an instant, with more ice blades striking the bat's already fragile wing bones.

The fleshy wings were instantly severed.

Boom!

The dark gold bat that had already flown away stumbled and fell from the sky. Upon seeing this, Ding Quan and the others immediately flew away as well.

Seeing that ice was beginning to form on the giant bat's body and that its aura was becoming increasingly weak, it seemed that Ling's ice blade attack contained a powerful mental attack.

The huge commotion had already alerted many people around. There were quite a few Soul Masters around the Spirit Hall, but seeing the seven terrifying Soul Rings surrounding the giant dark gold bat, and the three people wearing bamboo hats, they were all Soul Kings.

Ding Quan wasn't surprised that the group had dealt with him so easily. If their soul power hadn't been depleted a year ago, they might not have been afraid of him even if they had gone all out in their prime.

Now that their strength has increased so much, and they have all acquired domain skills and are at their peak, they were able to severely injure him as soon as they met.

Ice blades shot towards the bat that had fallen to the ground, and the dark gold bat was frozen solid moments later.

Ah~~ Roar~

A mournful wail rang out as Ling released ice that was melting the soul power released by the evil soul master. The terrifying ice and fire attribute corrosiveness caused him unbearable pain.

What upset him even more was that flames began to ignite on the frozen ice.

The blood-red bat was surrounded by ice and fire, and with his pitiful cries, his breath grew weaker and weaker.

Radiant!

A bolt of purple lightning struck the evil spirit master instantly, halting his movements abruptly before he reverted to human form.

Ding Quan looked at his body with his golden-red eyes. He was already lifeless. It was a bit too easy for him to die so quickly. However, Ding Quan was somewhat surprised that this guy did not have a soul bone.

"Let's go!" The group leaped towards the city lord's mansion in an instant.

After the group left, many Soul Masters approached and saw that there was a blood pool in the basement below the Spirit Hall, and many Soul Masters were trapped there. They immediately realized that something extraordinary had happened.

The Spirit Hall at this time.

Hu Liena is learning to control her murderous intent under the guidance of her teacher.

But a shocking piece of news arrived, prompting her to step out of the cultivation room.

In the Papal Palace, a noble woman sat regally above, looking only in her early twenties and extremely beautiful.

This person is none other than Bibi Dong, the current Pope of the Spirit Hall. Even she, who considers herself a genius, is taken aback by the letter in her hand.

"Nana, these are the people you mentioned." A letter flew from Bibi Dong's hand and landed in Hu Liena's hand.

"The golden sword, the dark gold thunder tiger, and ice—it really is them." Hu Liena took the letter, and her expression grew increasingly solemn as she read it. These people were truly terrifying.

"I initially thought Nana was exaggerating a bit, but now it seems your guess wasn't bold enough." Bibi Dong stood up and slowly walked towards Hu Liena.

The contents of the letter moved her somewhat. Three Soul Kings broke into a Martial Soul Sub-Hall and killed a top-level Soul Saint of level 79 there. Moreover, that Soul Saint seemed to be an evil Soul Master.

They then went so far as to destroy the city lord's mansion. The eight Soul Emperors were powerless to resist under their attack, and could not even escape. They died instantly.

What surprised her even more was that these people didn't seem to be using their full strength at all. The people from the Spirit Hall had carefully observed the area around them and found that they hadn't used any powerful spirit skills.

It was as if killing those people was effortless and casual, and these three were merely Soul Kings.

He's just a Soul King!

They so easily defeated a top-tier Soul Saint who had released his Martial Soul True Form.

Even if the current Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall were to join forces, they might not be able to achieve such strength.

Even when I was a Soul King, I probably couldn't have done this much. Moreover, they managed to cross the City of Slaughter in just one year. Their strength at the same level is absolutely unmatched by any other God of Slaughter.

Even Tang Hao is far inferior.

"Nana, are you sure they're younger than you?"

"Teacher, I can confirm this. I've fought with them and had physical contact with Ling and Wei'er. They're both under twenty years old," Hu Liena said seriously, handing the letter to Bibi Dong.

Soul Masters can accurately determine age by feeling bones, even if it's not entirely accurate during combat, it still gives a general idea.

"Soul Kings who are not even twenty years old yet possess such strength, where do they come from?"

"Teacher, I don't know, but I'm sure they don't come from the major sects, and they have no ill intentions towards the Spirit Hall."

"That's good. Next, let Elder Ju take you to hunt souls, and then you can focus on controlling the God of Slaughter Domain."

"Disciple understands."
