Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Emperor, Unifying the Continent!

"You've been listening for so long, aren't you coming out yet?!"

The air froze instantly.

Xu Tianming, who had been listening to the two's conversation, suddenly narrowed his eyes, instinctively thinking that he had been exposed.

But the next second he forcefully stopped himself from rushing in and making a move.

wrong!

He didn't make a sound at all, and the mechanisms on the wall weren't triggered!

A few seconds later, a sound came from inside again.

"Master, is there anyone else here?"

The scouts instinctively became alert and immediately turned to look at the entrance.

He didn't sense any movement, but since his master said so, there must be a reason.

He walked step by step toward the entrance, drawing the short blade from his waist.

As he approached the entrance, Xu Tianming was ready.

As soon as this traitor reaches the entrance, he will kill him immediately!

The other party didn't know his strength, but he did know something about the scout's cultivation level.

Tap... Tap...

The footsteps drew closer.

Next, the traitorous scout will walk to the entrance.

Xu Tianming was even about to unleash the Aurora Sword Martial Soul.

"Alright, no one's here. I was just testing it. If someone were at the entrance, the mechanism would be triggered."

The evil spirit master's voice rang out.

Xu Tianming: "..."

Go to hell!

What a wicked soul master, doing all this fancy stuff!

Upon hearing this, the traitorous scout's tense nerves relaxed slightly.

But before he could completely relax, the ground suddenly shook.

The evil spirit master's expression changed!

"The mechanism in the Human Skin Hall has been triggered!"

His mind raced: "The Heavenly Soul Empire's military won't arrive this quickly; it must be that Shrek Academy guy who got in! Let's go!"

The scout asked doubtfully, "Master, that Shrek Academy student is only under fifteen years old, we..."

The evil spirit master roared, "What do you know! If it were just that student you're talking about, would he dare to storm into my base alone?! He must have been protected by a powerful figure from Shrek Academy!"

"If not, that brat charging in alone, my men would be more than enough to cut him to pieces! Let's go! Let's go now!"

As he spoke, he walked directly toward one of the exits.

This space has more than one entrance. In addition to the entrance at the front, there is also a secret passage for evacuation in critical situations.

"Damn Shrek Academy! They didn't even wait for the Heavenly Soul Empire's army to arrive... Now who knows how long the blood sacrifice operation will be delayed..."

He muttered to himself, his face contorting into a ferocious expression.

They had been lacking food for the past few days and were thinking of going out to hunt and kill more people, but now they had run into the Shrek Academy.

Let alone leading his men to plunder the villages of the Heavenly Soul Empire, the wealth accumulated in this base camp will probably be wiped out!

boom!

"Tsk tsk tsk, so cautious, no wonder they've escaped so many encirclements..."

The evil spirit master turned around abruptly, only to see the scout's body lying on the ground at the entrance.

A single, swift strike to the throat!

The person who did it was an extremely young boy, no more than fifteen years old!

Not only that, this boy, who is no more than fifteen years old, actually has three spirit rings: one yellow and two purple!

One yellow and two purple!

This was the first time he had ever seen this configuration of spirit rings!

In particular, the longsword in the boy's hand, which emitted a dazzling golden light, was extremely glaring and disgusting to him!

"The students of Shrek Academy are truly geniuses..."

His gaze passed through Xu Tianming and went to the entrance behind Xu Tianming.

The boy in front of them was a genius, even possessing an astonishing configuration of one yellow and two purple spirit rings, clearly demonstrating his ability to fight beyond his level.

But this posed no real threat to him!

What he feared was not the young genius in front of him, but the powerful figures from Shrek Academy who could appear at any moment!

Xu Tianming glanced around the space inside, gripping the Aurora Sword tightly in his hand.

The space here is large, but there aren't many things.

Aside from some daily necessities, the most eye-catching feature is the five-meter-diameter pool in the very center.

The pool was not filled with water, but rather with a layer of dried, dark brown substance.

That's blood!

The pool is over a meter high, and judging from the dark brown marks on it, it was once filled with water!

A pool, five meters in diameter and over one meter high, was filled with fresh blood...

Apart from that, there was nothing strange.

If you disregard the blood pool, the entire space would be difficult to recognize as the residence of an evil spirit master.

However, Xu Tianming didn't think this evil soul master was any better than the other evil soul masters.

He guessed that this evil spirit master must have some kind of symptom.

For example, obsessive-compulsive disorder related to cleanliness.

He had noticed this from the moment he entered the cave.

Having obsessive-compulsive disorder about cleanliness does not beautify evil spirit masters in any way.

This doesn't stop him from skinning people and drawing their blood, nor does it stop him from slaughtering countless civilians; it just makes him seem less heinous.

But in essence, there is no difference.

Roar!

The Aurora Sword shone brightly, and the roar of the Lion King of Light instantly resounded throughout the entire cave space.

He had to hold back a bit when he was at Shrek Academy, but facing the evil spirit master in front of him, he no longer needed to restrain himself.

Unleash your full power! Objective: Kill the opponent!

The temperature inside the cave was originally low. The cultivation environment for evil spirit masters is cold and damp. Even if this place was not originally cold and damp, if an evil spirit master cultivates here for many years, the cold and damp aura on the evil spirit master's body will still permeate the place.

But when the Lion King of Light roared, the chilling atmosphere in the entire cave was instantly dispelled by the light!

"First Soul Skill: Aurora Slash!"

Xu Tianming did not approach the opponent easily, but instead used his first soul skill to probe first.

Evil Soul Masters use sinister and unpredictable methods. Even if someone is a Soul Master with the ultimate light attribute, they could still fall victim to their schemes if they're not careful.

The light blade slashed towards the evil spirit master, dazzling and bright, as if it would split the evil spirit master in two!

As the evil soul master sensed the intense power of light contained within the Aurora Slash, his brows immediately furrowed.

He had been on guard against the Shrek Academy experts who might appear at any moment, but when that lion's roar came out and that blade of light was unleashed, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

He felt an extremely strong suppression!

That was a terrifying suppression originating from the soul, from the attributes!

"If your cultivation level were the same as mine, I would be no match for you."

The evil spirit master slowly extended his right hand.

That was definitely not the right hand a normal person should have; the palm was completely blood red, as if it had no skin.

And on this arm without skin, there are countless crevices, like... mouths!

However, the visual impact these had on Xu Tianming was far less than the sheer number of spirit rings rising beneath the feet of the evil spirit masters.

Two yellows, three purples, and one...black!

Sixth Ring Road!

This evil spirit master isn't a Soul King at all; he's a six-ring Soul Emperor!
