Douluo Continent: The Eye of Truth

Chapter 231 A New Emperor, A New Court

Looking at the confusion in the eyes of the two brothers, Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong.

Long Haochen's expression stiffened, and the smile on his face faltered.

With the development of the school system over the years, the entire Temple Federation has been making progress and constantly innovating.

Few people bother to understand or study the ancient Chinese almanac.

Even he, the former first president of the Temple Federation.

Few people know about his deeds nowadays.

Perhaps only the remnants of those professional temples would keep it in mind.

But despite all this, whether it's called the Spirit Furnace or the Throne of Gods.

That's all in the past; it's no longer the mainstream system today.

This is because the number of spirit furnaces is extremely scarce.

The difficulty of recognizing a master for the Throne of Gods is extremely high.

These two are completely incomparable to the schools of thought promoted by the current system of universal conscription.

When finding a suitable candidate for the Throne of God.

Other schools of thought may have already produced several ninth-tier powerhouses.

As for the benefits that the spirit furnace brings to its holder...

It is even more difficult to compare with the increasingly large schools of thought today.

The advantages of a school of thought system are its replicability and transmissibility.

As long as there is a breakthrough in the propositions and theories of the upper-level schools of thought.

Then it will quickly spread to members of other schools of thought at the lower levels.

At the same time, it gathers new ideas from members of the lower-level school of thought.

They will also be collected by the core members of the upper-level schools of thought for improvement.

This is the result of the collective efforts of an entire school of thought.

How could a mere spirit furnace compare?

It's important to know that every school of thought has its share of geniuses.

And all these geniuses together.

The creativity it generates is far greater than the boost brought by the Spirit Furnace.

At the same time, there is also competition between different schools of thought.

A dominant school of thought will naturally eliminate the weaker schools of thought through subtle processes.

Those weaker schools of thought were eliminated.

Naturally, they will also be incorporated into those dominant schools of thought to conduct joint research.

In such a competitive environment, coupled with the pressure of the external undead tide,

Long Haochen, the first president of the Holy Temple Federation? No interest.

Although I have never heard of the name of the person in front of me.

But whether it's Long Dangdang or Long Kongkong.

Everyone felt a strange sense of familiarity with him.

Long Dangdang hesitated for a moment, then spoke.

Long Kongkong simply said, "It doesn't matter who you are."

"Dare to kill the mentor of the School of Killing? Aren't you afraid of the School's revenge?"

Long Dangdang sighed, but still chose to protect Long Kongkong behind her.

Although he felt an inexplicable fondness for the person in front of him.

However, they were also aware of just how powerful the Killing School was.

Upon hearing this, Long Haochen looked puzzled, not understanding what the other party meant.

Moreover, he seemed to have a vague sense of unease.

It should be noted that Saint Cher's assassination was quite swift and decisive.

Although it may seem like just be decapitation, it was the mentor of the Killing School.

They couldn't even muster the slightest struggle.

It's even less likely that any message will be sent out that would attract other members of the Killing School.

However, as mentioned before, the achievements of the entire school of thought are shared among themselves.

Similarly, even those who have not yet fully become part of the killing school.

However, Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong are also spies for the Killing School.

And this stems from the weapon assigned to them by the Killing School.

With the passing of the life flame of that master of the Killing School.

The other members of the Killing School locked onto it immediately.

Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong were closest to where they died.

Meanwhile, a large number of powerful members of the Killing School were on their way.

It is precisely because of the nature of mutual support and cooperation among members of different schools of thought.

Each member of a school of thought is an important part of that school.

Especially this mentor of the Killing School who has become a full member.

If these members were practicing the school's ideals and died in battle.

Or if one loses their life for a legitimate reason.

Then each school of thought will not take any other action, but will simply continue to move forward, bearing the weight of the deceased's legacy.

To perfect the system and theoretical foundation of the school of thought.

However, the situation is different this time.

The Killing School operates through Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong.

They learned definitively who had murdered the mentor of this school of killing.

Therefore, they naturally could not back down and keep quiet about this matter.

After all, the Killing School is notorious for its brutality; anyone who dares to touch our people will be killed.

Looking at Long Kongkong, who didn't seem to be faking it, and Long Dangdang, who seemed to want to say something but hesitated.

Long Haochen sensed something was wrong and quickly said to Sheng Cai'er.

"Cai'er, let's take Dangdang and Kongkong and leave first."

At this moment, the entire space turned into a blood-red color.

Heaven, earth, sun, moon, stars, and celestial bodies all vanished within it.

"Trying to leave? Too late!" A murderous voice echoed in the blood-red space.

It wasn't just one killing intent, but rather hundreds of killing intents intertwined and condensed together.

At the same time, a series of blood-red figures appeared in this blood-red space.

Each blood-red figure emanated an aura exceeding 500,000 units of spiritual power.

The aura emanating from the leader was so formidable that even Long Haochen found it somewhat troublesome.

This crimson space did not have the so-called image of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

It was simply a mixture of extremely pure, condensed killing intent.

The killing intent was so pure that even Long Haochen couldn't help but change his expression drastically.

In terms of individual combat strength, each school of thought has different strengths.

The killing school is naturally the most outstanding among them.

Meanwhile, a saying also circulates within the Holy Temple Federation.

That means even if you are very strong personally.

However, you should never think of being an enemy of a school of thought.

However, although Long Haochen had learned some things about the schools of thought.

However, they did not delve into what exactly a school of thought was.

As mentioned earlier, the school of thought was united in its efforts to advance its propositions and theories.

This also means that it will only be necessary when the time comes.

Members of all schools of thought can bring together their own theories, cultivation, and insights.

It is built up into the will of the school, the collective of all its members.

And that's what the members of the Killing School are doing now.

This crimson space is not simple; its size is equivalent to a demiplane.

Moreover, it differs from a typical half-plane.

This demiplane is entirely formed from condensed killing intent.

Rather than calling it a demiplane, it's more accurate to describe it as a realm that has been elevated to its highest level.

In this blood-red space, nothing but killing intent remained.

Even the concept of the existence of space was isolated.

That is why, if you want to break through this blood-red space...

The only way is to defeat all members of the Killing School by head-on.

Or perhaps they possess similar capabilities, creating a space to counterbalance them.

However, Long Haochen seemed a bit lost at this moment.

This is because of his previous plans.

Therefore, Long Haochen separated his greatest trump card, Eternity, from the Throne of the God of Creation.

If one were blessed with this throne of the God of Eternity and Creation.

Then Long Haochen might be able to fight this school of killing.

Long Haochen naturally also possesses domain-specific abilities.

However, Long Haochen had already tried to activate the Eternal Light Domain.

However, it failed; it was impossible to manifest itself within this crimson space.

This made Long Haochen's heart sink, which meant that, in terms of pure strength, it was a serious matter.

Now, the combined might of the Killing School's strongest members has completely overwhelmed me.

Since defeating the demons, Long Haochen had not encountered such a desperate situation for many years.

"It's alright, Haochen, leave it to me," Sheng Cai'er said softly.

Unlike Long Haochen, she did not have her own Divine Throne.

But precisely because of this, her combat strength is now more complete.

Moreover, even with her domain, she was still unable to break through the limitations of the Crimson Space.

However, she possesses a similar artifact capable of rivaling the Crimson Space.

Eternal Melody Necklace - Tower of Eternity.

As Saint Cher grasped the necklace she wore around her neck.

Then, a brilliant golden light shone from the Eternal Melody.

A towering structure, which remained unmoved even within the crimson space, suddenly appeared.

"Haochen, let's go!" At this moment, all the sand in the crimson space poured down on the Tower of Eternity.

As the one who controlled this divine artifact, a trickle of blood spilled from the corner of Sheng Cai'er's mouth.

At this moment, she was bearing the weight of the entire Crimson Space.

But this also gave Long Haochen the opportunity to act.

Long Haochen nodded solemnly.

He immediately tried to take Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong away from him.

At the same time, he dragged Saint Cai'er beside him and they escaped into the Tower of Eternity.

Long Dangdang did not resist, but Long Kongkong did not know why.

They actually broke free from Long Haochen's control, but now there was no time to lose.

No sooner had one wave subsided than another arose, with an even more surging killing intent crashing down once more.

At this moment, the Tower of Eternity groaned in extreme pain, and cracks appeared everywhere.

Left with no other choice, Long Haochen said he had to give up on Long Kongkong.

He entered the Tower of Eternity with only Long Dangdang and Sheng Cai'er.

Looking out at the Tower of Eternity, Long Kongkong's eyes...

For some reason, Long Haochen suddenly remembered it.

Austin Griffin, who once possessed only a destructive will.

As the killing intent surged forth once more, the Tower of Eternity vanished into the crimson space.

Even so, only a small portion of the tower was forcibly left in this location.

Subsequently, his will to kill was completely extinguished.

"Escaped? Hmph, contact other schools of thought."

"I don't care whether he was the so-called former federal chairman or not."

"Kill! No mercy!"

The crimson space gradually dissipated, and Long Kongkong was also silenced by the last words.

The leader of the Killing School, surrounded by all the blood-red figures, was led away from this place.

At this moment, Long Haochen brought Sheng Cai'er and Long Dangdang to another dimension.

This plane was purified by him using the power of the throne of the former Eternal God and the God of Creation.

The undead creatures that were originally under Electrox's command are now subordinate to him.

This plane has no connection with the Temple Federation.

Therefore, the Killing School couldn't reach this place, which relieved Long Haochen.

"Sorry, Ding Ding, I know you have a lot of questions for me."

Long Haochen sighed softly, but first looked at Sheng Cai'er, who was pale and extremely weak.

"Let Cai'er answer the questions for you first, I have more important things to do."

"Cai'er, I did underestimate the changes in the Holy Temple Federation."

"I must reclaim the throne of the God of Eternity and Creation in order to change the current situation."

"Before I return, Cai'er, you should take Dangdang and rest here for a while."

Although that's what he said, there was no shortage of worry in Long Haochen's eyes.

Because of his eternal heart, Long Haochen was able to have such a long lifespan.

The reason why Saint Cher was able to stay with him all the time was because of the existence of the Eternal Melody.

Currently, the Tower of Eternity is severely damaged due to the conflict with the School of Slaughter.

The effect of Eternal Melody will likely be greatly diminished.

His reason for wanting to reclaim the throne of the God of Eternity and Creation is...

Aside from the matters that need to be dealt with by various schools of thought.

Another reason was to help Saint Cher repair the Tower of Eternity.

Neither he nor Saint-Charles was a master of alchemy.

This contains artifacts created by the Necromancer Saint Elex.

Nature is something they cannot repair or manufacture.

But there is the throne of the God of Eternity and Creation.

So even if you know nothing about it, there is still a possibility of repair.

With a pale face, Sheng Cai'er nodded slightly and said softly, "Okay."

"Haochen, I will take good care of Dangdang. You must also be careful."

"The Temple Federation is now dominated by those schools of thought."

"Whether you can retrieve the throne of the God of Eternity and Creation on this trip is not important."

"The most important thing is that you come back safely."

"No matter what, as long as you and I are still here."

"Then we can take Dangdang to other planes."

"Even without conflict with that school of thought, we can still continue to live."

Upon hearing this, Long Haochen's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

However, she still nodded and said, "Don't worry, Cai'er, I know what I'm doing."

Immediately, Long Haochen's figure disappeared from this plane.

Meanwhile, Sheng Cai'er smiled palely at Long Dangdang and said...

"Dangdang, I know you have a lot of questions."

"For example, who are we? Why did we kidnap you and your brother?"

"as well as."

"I will tell you everything next."

"Originally, Haochen and I didn't want to do this, but in this world today..."

Meanwhile, Long Haochen had already sneaked back to the Holy Demon Continent.

The Killing School wields immense influence, even within the current Holy Temple Federation.

It is also one of the most prestigious schools of thought, with the leader of the School of Slaughter personally issuing the order.

Everyone knows Long Haochen, the former first chairman of the Holy Temple Federation.

This legendary figure from history has reappeared, but as an enemy of the Killing School.

One emperor and one courtier.

Those families and forces that were once directly under Long Haochen's command.

It had already nearly withered away in the struggle against the school of thought.

Even if he were to return now, he would probably receive very few responses.

My new book, "High Martial Arts: Becoming a God Starting with Semi-Datafication," is seeking support, collections, recommendations, and investment.
