Douluo Amon: I am the Heavenly Venerable of the Dragon King.

Chapter 427 Aponia

"Let's go."

Qian Gu Qingfeng took the lead, walking at the very front, while Gu Yuena followed behind, gently tugging at Fors's sleeve. Tang Wulin walked at the very back.

"Sister Xing, what do we do now?" In the control room of the Spirit Pagoda, Sister Xing, who had previously been in charge of receiving Qian Gu Qingfeng, and the monkey were right there.

At this moment, the man named Monkey looked somewhat dejected. Qian Gu Qing Feng could disregard these rules, but he couldn't ignore them! Who knew if he would be given a major demerit after this incident?

"What can we do? All the test results from the instruments are normal. What can I do but agree?" Sister Xing glared at the monkey before saying with some distress.

Sister Xing is one of the heads of the main control tower, responsible for the management of all equipment; she is the supervisor here. However, even so, in terms of status, she is still far inferior to Qian Gu Qingfeng.

"These councilors always abuse their privileges and cause trouble everywhere. It's really a headache!" Sister Xing looked at the analysis results of various instruments, which showed that Qian Gu Qing Feng was undoubtedly human, and the soul power fluctuations were also human.

"Alright, Monkey, you write this down. I'm going to see Councilor Qingfeng."

Sister Xing sighed. These big shots like to do things their own way, but in the end, it's always the little people like them who suffer!

Qian Gu Qingfeng and his group entered another passageway. The Spirit Pagoda's defenses here were truly at their maximum.

These passageways are also equipped with extremely powerful soul tools, and the surrounding metal walls are incredibly thick. Even if ferocious beasts attack, these thick metal walls can hold them off for enough time.

It is also equipped with various powerful soul tools, some of which are so powerful that even a Super Douluo would not dare to take them head-on.

However, these soul tools are mainly used to buy time, giving the Spirit Pagoda headquarters time to summon powerful experts.

There were three such metal passages and gates. When Qian Gu Qingfeng and his group passed through the third gate, Xing Jie was already waiting there.

"Councilor Qingfeng, Miss Fors, Miss Gu Yuena, hello." Sister Xing gave a slight bow.

"Alright, you don't need to say anything more. I've already said, if anything happens, just have Qian Gu Dong Feng come directly to me." Qian Gu Qing Feng waved his hand, interrupting Xing Jie's words.

"Yes," Xingjie could only say respectfully, then walked ahead to lead the way. The interior of the Star Dou Fortress was intricate and complex; without someone familiar with the area to guide you, it was easy to lose your way.

As Xingjie walked ahead, she would occasionally glance behind her out of the corner of her eye.

Are Miss Gu Yuena and Miss Fors really that close? Why does she seem to rely on Miss Fors so much?

"Daughter, how is it? Consider this a small gift from your father: a Hell Dragon with nearly 300,000 years of cultivation. Whether as a pet or a future soul ring, it's an excellent choice."

"Yes, thank you, teacher. I really like this gift."

"Um, could you please stop calling me teacher? You call Zheng Leng 'Mom,' so why do you call me 'Teacher'?"

"Well, it's probably hard to change this way of addressing me now, since I'm used to it."

Hearing the voices behind her, Xingjie felt completely numb.

A 300,000-year-old hell dragon? Could it be that Councilor Qingfeng has captured Zi Ji, the ninth-ranked hell dragon king, one of the ten most ferocious beasts?

Moreover, he wasn't even using it himself; he was giving it as a small gift to his disciple. That's incredibly extravagant. There are probably very few things on the Douluo Continent that can compare to this small gift.

"The rumors inside the tower are indeed true. Councilor Qingfeng and Her Majesty Hanyun really dote on Miss Fors."

Sister Xing sighed inwardly, realizing that different people have different fates. She also wished someone would give her such a small gift!

"So, the one Qingfeng was carrying on his shoulder must be the ferocious beast. And who is the other one wearing a mask?"

Xingjie only thought about it for a moment before deciding not to think about it anymore. Anyway, she couldn't interfere with the affairs of these important people, so she could only leave it to fate.

As for Qian Gu Qingfeng's casual capture of ferocious beasts, Sister Xing didn't react much. Anyway, those ferocious beasts inside had long been kept in captivity by the Spirit Pagoda. The reason she hadn't attacked them before was because of the existence of the Beast God Di Tian.

But now?

The Spirit Pagoda is already so powerful, what ferocious beasts are they afraid of? It's just that the Spirit Pagoda didn't choose to take action because of research and other considerations.

……

After the group left the Star Dou Fortress, Fors looked at Tang Wulin, who still seemed to want to say something, and said directly, "Let's go. I only helped you this time because of Fusheng. As for Gu Yuena, I will never hand her over to you."

"Well, thank you anyway." Tang Wulin pursed his lips and thanked Fors. Indeed, it was better for Gu Yuena to stay at the Spirit Pagoda than to follow him, this "dead man."

Even now, Tang Wulin still doesn't understand her identity. Although Fors says she's Na'er's older sister, Tang Wulin feels she looks a lot like Gu Yue, just not the same.

……

On a luxurious, extended soul-guided car.

The driver was a middle-aged butler wearing a monocle, who was meticulously driving the soul-guided car.

Qian Gu Qingfeng, sitting in the second row, looked at Zi Ji, who was bound hand and foot, and asked, "What do you plan to do with this guy?"

Fors replied without hesitation, "Either let her loot the equipment, or we'll keep her as a pet. Anyway, we've got her under control now, and I don't believe she can cause any trouble."

Just like Nunnally, Fors didn't choose to parasitize Murasaki. Instead, she wanted to toy with Murasaki, which would be much more interesting.

Beside Fors, Gu Yuena looked at the bound and gagged Zi Ji, hesitated for a moment, and asked softly, "Mom, can you not kill her? Can we keep her as a pet too?"

"Well, that depends on how this guy performs in the future," Fors said with a smile, patting Gu Yuena's head.

It seems we can't let Zi Ji drop equipment for now. After all, with her around, she'll be able to better control Gu Yue Na in the future.

……

The headquarters of the Spirit Pagoda.

Nan Fusheng himself was here at that moment, waiting for Fors to bring Gu Yuena back so that he could better observe her situation.

He is currently in the living area of ​​Qian Gu Qing Feng within the Spirit Pagoda.

Because the Spirit Pagoda is flush with cash, it is quite vast. Thanks to the legendary Qingfeng's status, a dedicated area has naturally been designated within it. This includes not only residential areas but also living quarters, cultivation areas, and more.

Nan Fusheng is currently in a room in the living area.

Besides him, Han Yun Douluo Xia Zheng Leng was also there. At this moment, she was hugging Naxida and sticking to her like crazy, saying, "You are so cute. Would you like to be my daughter?"

"Ugh—, stay away from me." Nasita stretched out her small hands and forcefully pushed Xia Zheng's cold face away from her. What's wrong with this woman! Why is she so clingy!

"No, no. Your body is so soft and smells so good! Are you really a spirit? I can feel that you have formed a physical body, which is something that other materialized spirits don't have."

Xia Zheng Leng was well aware that souls could materialize, but ultimately, they were merely energy bodies. However, Naxida in her arms was entirely different; she truly possessed a physical body.

It is not an energy body, but a real physical body.

"How would I know? I experienced this change after absorbing the energy of that golden ancient tree. And I'm not the only one experiencing this change; the Violent Worm and Aponia are the same."

Nasita struggled with the face wash while pointing to the other side.

Besides Nan Fusheng, there were two other people sitting on the sofa.

One of them had blue skin and green eyes, and looked like a mixture of insects and scorpions. This was Nan Fusheng's former disguise, the God of Oxer: Li Xiaochou.

However, at this moment he was not Nan Fusheng in disguise, but his fourth soul spirit: the violent insect transformed into him.

Unlike the ugly and ferocious worms, the figure on the other side was a beautiful woman.

She was a tall woman wearing a slightly odd-looking nun's habit.

The reason it's considered strange is that the nun's habit blends tradition and modernity. The upper body is dressed in a conservative nun's habit, while the lower body is split like a cheongsam, revealing two long legs.

The woman wore a veil, had rare amber eyes, and blonde hair. She had faint dark circles under her eyes, which, combined with her indifferent expression, gave her a world-weary look.

Of course, what's even more striking is how huge she is!

Two enormous, malevolent figures pushed the nun's habit high, giving the impression of an "ascetic" nun.

"Please, don't fight."

Aponia's gentle voice rang out, and as she spoke, a red light flashed in her eyes. An invisible mental fluctuation instantly enveloped Naxida and Xia Zheng, causing them to subconsciously shut their mouths.

"Alright, stop bothering them. Let them fight it out." Nan Fusheng said helplessly.

Aponia, that was the name his sixth spirit had given himself.

Unlike other chimera spirit beasts, Aponia gives the first impression of being harmless and a gentle older sister.

Her manner of speaking was equally polite, and she was even dressed in a nun's habit, giving off a compassionate and empathetic vibe.

However, her abilities are not so great!

As a chimera soul beast that evolved by devouring numerous souls, Aponia's abilities are naturally related to souls.

She can manipulate others by interfering with their souls, and even erase their consciousness and soul.

The ability that briefly controlled Narcida and the other person was a derivative ability of Aponia: mind control, which allows her to manipulate the other person's consciousness and make them subconsciously obey her.

In addition, Aponia can also use mental abilities such as mental blasts, mental interference, and mental fields.

In Nan Fusheng's words, this was a Chimera Soul Beast specializing in spiritual power. After devouring numerous souls, her spiritual power reached the pinnacle of human capabilities: the peak of the Spirit Realm.

Reaching the Divine Origin Realm is no easy feat. In terms of cultivation, it's roughly equivalent to a 500,000-year-old ferocious beast. But Aponia's greatest strength lies in her spiritual power.

With her peak Spirit Realm mental power, coupled with those powerful mental techniques, even a normal Limit Douluo would be no match for Aponia unless they happened to be able to counter her.

"Hmph, what an outrageous woman." Nasita pushed Xia Zheng away and said with dissatisfaction, though it was unclear who she was talking to.

Aponia didn't use much mental power; with her and Xia Zhengleng's strength, they could easily break free.

Just then, sound came from the soul-guided television screen in the room:

"Shrek City has suddenly been struck by an unprecedented catastrophe, and the Federation bears an unshirkable responsibility. The Federal Parliament is hereby dissolved, and a new general election will be held at a later date."

"Preliminary statistics indicate that the death toll in Shrek City exceeds 12 million, with approximately 2 million injured. Less than a third of the city's size remains, and the losses are incalculable. Shrek Academy has been completely destroyed, and the Tang Sect headquarters is in ruins."

"The Federal military has established an investigation team to investigate the cause of the disappearance of the two god-killing fixed-position soul-guided artillery shells. The Army Commander-in-Chief stated that he will spare no effort to find the murderer. This inhuman tragedy is unprecedented on the continent. The military deeply mourns the victims."

Across mainland China, Shrek Academy graduates held mourning events to deeply commemorate the victims of the Shrek tragedy.

"The Tang Sect has declared war on the Holy Spirit Cult. However, according to insiders, the Tang Sect has suffered heavy losses. Its headquarters has been destroyed, at least four hall masters have perished, and the whereabouts of the Tang Sect's Douluo Hall Master are unknown. Our reporter is currently following up on the latest news."

"The Holy Spirit Church has claimed responsibility for the terrorist attack, but so far, there is no trace of them. Here, this station urges all members of the public to immediately report any suspicious persons to the local government office."

"Residents of Tiandou City are advised not to venture out unnecessarily in the near future. A malevolent spirit master clad in black armor has recently appeared near Tiandou City, causing horrific carnage. The military is currently searching for this malevolent spirit master."

"Strange individuals have recently begun appearing throughout the Federation. They call themselves Oxus and are carrying out terrorist attacks across the Federation. Furthermore, during these attacks, their bodies are undergoing inhuman changes."

"According to verification by relevant departments, these Oukes should have been ordinary humans, so how did they develop such strange changes? We can only hope that the Federation can find the answer as soon as possible!"

I originally wanted to make a live-action version of Jujutsu Kaisen, but I was afraid of getting flamed, so I had to change it. Don't worry, we'll be back to the main storyline soon.
