Douluo Continent: The Butterfly, Starting from the Authority of Death

Chapter 105 Holy Spirit Cult's Holy Maiden, Not Even a Dog Would Do (Part 1)

"My soul tool has malfunctioned." Ye Yulin gritted her teeth and uttered a shocking statement.

"What?!"

The Emperor, sitting upright in the main seat, was old but his mind hadn't quite caught up yet.

But Kong Deming, who possessed the strength of a Title Douluo, stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

This is Mingdu, how could the soul tool malfunction?

You must be joking with me.

"Yes—yes." Ye Yulin quickly added, "I contacted other members of the Soul Master Corps, and they came back saying the same thing."

""

"Offensive and defensive soul tools lose their effect instantly, rendering them unusable."

"This is impossible!" Kong Deming exclaimed breathlessly, his expression one of astonishment.

He instinctively took out a level nine defensive soul tool and poured his soul power into it.

The level-nine soul tool held in Kong Deming's hand emitted bursts of light, condensing into a light shield.

However, the light shield shattered the next moment.

"This—" Kong Deming's expression froze, and he stubbornly poured his soul power into it again.

The same soul power shield was generated, and then quickly shattered.

"impossible!"

One by one, spirit rings rose beneath Kong Deming's feet, and he casually tossed out a spirit skill to the side.

"Boom!"

A huge explosion resounded.

The tables and chairs on the left side of the palace were smashed to pieces.

"What on earth is going on?" Kong Deming was completely baffled. "I clearly used a soul skill!"

He belatedly realized that he was in the palace, and quickly bowed to the emperor apologetically: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I got a little excited."

The Sun and Moon Emperor waved his hand and said, "An unexpected event occurred, so it's understandable that Master Confucius lost his composure."

"However, just now."

The Emperor of the Sun and Moon paused, then said, "I feel I can live a little longer."

The Sun and Moon Emperor's originally hunched body straightened up a little, and his pale hair grew a few more strands of black hair.

"Master Kong, could you please come and examine me?"

"Yes."

Kong Deming also noticed the abnormality and quickly approached the Sun and Moon Emperor, placing his hand on his wrist.

After the soul power was injected, a look of shock gradually appeared on Kong Deming's face.

"This, this—"

"Master Kong, what's wrong with Father?" Seeing the sudden change in Kong Deming's expression, Xu Tianran couldn't help but look curious and worried.

"Your Highness, rest assured, His Majesty is alright." Kong Deming took a deep breath and removed his hand from the emperor's wrist.

"His Majesty's health has improved considerably, and he may even live several years longer than before."

Xu Tianran stared wide-eyed.

"Hehehe."

"hiss"

The Sun and Moon Emperor laughed heartily, his laughter seemingly less aged than before.

"Senior Physician, was this unexpected event also part of your plan?" With his thoughts clearing up considerably, the Sun and Moon Emperor seemed to understand something.

"I heard that a similar situation occurred in the Star Luo Empire about half a year ago."

"Almost all of them are halfway to their deaths."

"For example, someone like me looks a few years younger."

The Emperor of the Sun and Moon had just finished speaking.

With a "whoosh," Xu Tianran, Kong Deming, and Ye Yulin all turned their gazes toward Wang Xian'er.

"Your Majesty," Wang Xian'er nodded slightly, "I truly know nothing about soul tools."

"But the Great Dark Heaven over there in Xingluo," Wang Xian'er paused, "I'm already quite old, yet I chose to follow Miss Xiadie. Haven't you already guessed the reason?"

"really----"

The Sun and Moon Emperor nodded and did not ask any further questions.

"In that case, let us witness this unprecedented battle with our own eyes." The Sun and Moon Emperor's gaze once again fell on the Soul Guidance Communication screen that had returned from the live broadcast.

Seeing that the Emperor of the Sun and Moon did not pursue the matter further, Wang Xian'er breathed a sigh of relief.

To strip death from the body and allow it to regain its vitality.

"This only happened once, when Xia Die's martial soul awakened."

And that time, the teacher happened to be there as well.

It seems the young lady's teacher has arrived.

As for why the soul tool couldn't be used, Wang Xian'er had a vague idea of ​​the truth.

The energy released by a soul tool is different from that of a martial soul, and it is not very stable.

Just as he used life elements to decompose the soul guide ray structure of Mirror Red Dust, the fact that soul guides are currently unusable is probably related to similar abilities.

Wang Xian'er didn't know, so she simply stopped thinking about it.

Her gaze returned to the projection screen.

Compared to before, the main immortal who had already taken the "Sea-Stabilizing Needle" no longer seemed very anxious.

Long Xiaoyao is very powerful, and Ye Xishui is also terrifying, but can they compare to the teacher behind Xia Die?

On the projected screen.

The three remained in a standoff.

Long Xiaoyao wore a gray mask on his face.

He stood dozens of meters away from Ye Xishui, seemingly with no intention of making a move.

Meanwhile, Ye Xishui quietly watched the girl opposite her.

"I'm very curious, what is your martial soul?"

"My martial spirit is none of your concern." Xia Die had already canceled her ability to conceal her appearance, and the young girl with the scythe in her hand hovered quietly in the sky.

The surrounding fields of antithermia flowers swayed gently in the breeze.

It exudes an atmosphere of harmony and tranquility at all times.

The wailing and howling from Ye Xishui's direction, resembling the terrifying scene of vengeful ghosts descending, presented a stark contrast.

"That's true." Ye Xishui wasn't annoyed. "However, you have no choice now."

"Why not join us and become a saintess of our religion?"

"Or they will be unacceptable to the world."

Ye Xishui's shout spread Xia Die's identity and information to almost every corner of Mingdu.

It can be said that this is within the mainstream values ​​of mainland China.

Xia Die's death attribute would almost certainly label her as an evil spirit master.

"Your Excellency, why should I need to be tolerated by the world?"

"I am Xia Die." Xia Die's voice was calm. "Death is also rebirth."

"What?"

Ye Xishui was somewhat puzzled by Xia Die's words.

But she clearly sensed that the death energy on Xia Die's body had become stronger.

Moreover, that sense of peace and harmony made him quite uneasy.

The sickle is swung.

Purple death energy converged from all directions toward the location of the Reaper's Scythe of the Butterfly.

Embrace new life!

"Polyces"

laugh-

A purple glint of light flashed as it gently sliced ​​through the air.

The moment the purple light burst forth, a powerful force of death was unleashed throughout the entire capital.

This aura doesn't feel lonely; instead, it carries a touch of warmth.

For many people on the verge of death, the aura of death is quickly drawn from their bodies.

Fast —

The layers of space peeled away one by one.

A spatial rift several hundred meters long quickly stretched into the sky.

"W-What is this!?"

Ye Xishui was shocked and immediately became alert, controlling the Blood Soul Demon and the Death God Tower.

Even Long Xiaoyao, who was standing to the side, quickly released his Dark Holy Dragon Martial Soul.

Ye Xishui's Death God Tower's energy was quickly suppressed.

The dim sky was tinged with a dark purple hue at this moment.

"Roar~"

A massive rift opened, revealing a giant, silver-purple dragon.

It appears and disappears in the crack.

"Death, such a power, how is that possible!"

The moment he stared at the cracked space, Long Xiaoyao's heart trembled.

A giant dragon, thousands of meters long, leaped out from a spatial rift.

Those enormous, razor-sharp claws lunged fiercely at Ye Xishui.

"not good!"

Long Xiaoyao's expression changed, and he quickly activated his Martial Soul True Body to shield Ye Xishui behind him.

"Bullying the weak and attacking my disciple is already incredibly disrespectful."

"Still want to fight two against one?"

A sudden sound rang in my ears.

Long Xiaoyao's pupils contracted, and he didn't know when.

A figure appeared before Long Xiaoyao's Martial Soul True Body.

It was a man dressed in a gray robe, who was muttering incantations.

Countless runes flowed and quickly pressed down on Long Xiaoyao's Martial Soul True Body.

"No----"

"puff!"

Long Xiaoyao coughed up a mouthful of blood, and his spirits waned.

"Free and unrestrained!"

Ye Xishui also noticed this scene and controlled the Death Tower to provide support.

The giant dragon that had fallen from the sky arrived at that moment, its terrifying claws making a sound as they scraped against the air.

It grabbed straight at the released Death Tower.
