Douluo Dalu II: The Peerless Tang Sect

Chapter 158 Purple Heaven Divine Lightning! A Warning from the World's Rules!

"Le Xuan, Nan Nan, you two have really accomplished something big!" Xian Lin'er and Cai Mei'er arrived together. They had both been startled by the aura of the Moon Goddess, so they came out to investigate.

"Elder Immortal, Elder Cai!" Zhang Lexuan greeted them respectfully upon seeing them.

"It's a pity that there's such a big age gap between Le Xuan and Nan Nan. Otherwise, if the two of you participated in the Soul Master Competition together, you would definitely amaze all the Soul Masters on the continent!" Cai Meier said, with a hint of regret on her face.

"Mei'er, you're too naive," Xian Lin'er retorted. "Whether they participate in the Soul Master Competition or not is secondary. The most important thing is that Le Xuan and Nan Nan's Martial Soul Fusion Skill can become the academy's new trump card! Both Le Xuan and Nan Nan's talents are destined for them to become Title Douluo, or even Super Douluo. At that time, their Martial Soul Fusion Skill will definitely become a major trump card for our academy!"

"That's true, but it will probably take them more than ten years to become Title Douluos!" Cai Meier said with a smile, her tone carrying a hint of expectation and helplessness.

Zhu Ziyang and the others listened to Xian Lin'er and Cai Mei'er's praise of Zhang Lexuan and Jiang Nannan and deeply agreed. As the first people to directly face the two's martial soul fusion skill, Zhu Ziyang and the others had the most right to speak.

Because Jiang Nannan's soul power was exhausted, today's training had to end here. After Zhu Ziyang escorted Jiang Nannan back to her room, he returned to his own room.

He sat by the window, holding a thin book in his hand, reading it carefully.

The book, titled "The Ten Rarest Martial Souls on Douluo Continent," is a book written five thousand years ago. Its content is simple: it lists the ten martial souls with the fewest users among all the martial souls that have ever appeared on Douluo Continent. Although the title may seem a bit sensationalist, the content is indeed very valuable, after all, its author was the dean of Shrek Academy at the time.

Why did Zhu Ziyang suddenly start reading this book? It's because this book contains the most detailed information about the Goddess of Light Butterfly.

"...The third most treasured martial soul on the mainland - the Goddess of Light Butterfly."

The Goddess of Light Butterfly, a beast spirit with the attribute of light, is a top-tier spirit.

The Goddess of Light Butterfly is the most beautiful butterfly spirit beast on the continent, one of the most beautiful spirit beasts. Because of its extreme beauty, the Goddess of Light Butterfly spirit beast can only awaken in female spirit masters, and the awakening probability is extremely low, less than 10%.

This martial soul is a non-hereditary martial soul, meaning it cannot be passed down through bloodlines, which is why it is extremely rare. Only three Bright Goddess Butterfly Soul Masters have ever appeared in the history of the continent: one was an empress of the Heaven Dou Empire, one was the wife of a pope of the Spirit Hall, and the other was a noblewoman of unknown identity. All three were unparalleled beauties whose looks surpassed all others on the continent.

Legend has it that the Goddess of Light Butterfly was the pet of the Goddess of Light, and thus possessed powerful light attributes. Its combat abilities were extremely formidable, and it was said to be able to contend with a true dragon without being at a disadvantage…

"Sure enough, it seems I wasn't mistaken!" Zhu Ziyang exclaimed, then a playful smile appeared on his face. He was now basically certain that Wang Dong was a girl, or perhaps she should be called Wang Dong'er, or Tang Dong'er.

In the undead demiplane.

Zhu Ziyang and Electrolux stood facing each other. Zhu Ziyang held the Scythe of Peace and Destiny, his eyes slightly furrowed, his expression serious, and his lips moving as if chanting a spell. Electrolux, on the other hand, looked expectantly at Zhu Ziyang's movements.

The Jing Shi Xiu Ming Scythe drew a circle in the air, and then Zhu Ziyang's voice gradually grew louder. The obscure incantation transformed into energy runes, which formed an array along the circle in the air created by the Jing Shi Xiu Ming Scythe. The tip of the Jing Shi Xiu Ming Scythe gathered gray-white air currents, which swirled and slowly expanded until they filled the entire circle.

After Zhu Ziyang finished chanting the incantation, a glint of light flashed in his eyes. Then, his right hand, holding the Jing Shi Xiu Ming Scythe, suddenly sank downwards, and the Jing Shi Xiu Ming Scythe stood firmly on the ground. A gate exuding a dark and deathly aura slowly rose from the ground, and a skeletal hand reached out from it.

Immediately afterward, to the expectant gaze of Zhu Ziyang and Electrolux, a white skeleton emerged from the portal. The white skeleton stood two meters tall, wielding a bone knife and a bone shield. A blazing soul fire burned within its head, and a heart-like crystal of flame pulsated on its chest. This was an undead creature, a skeleton warrior.

"Master!" The skeleton warrior knelt respectfully before Zhu Ziyang, submitting to him in the purest Douluo Continent language.

"That's great!" Zhu Ziyang exclaimed excitedly, looking at Electrolux, "Teacher, I did it!"

"That's right! You succeeded!" Electrox said excitedly. "This means you've graduated! Your teacher is very pleased! This skeleton warrior is at the fifth ring level, and to summon it so smoothly on your first attempt—you truly deserve to be my personally taught disciple! Hahaha!"

Just as Zhu Ziyang and Electrolux were celebrating, a sudden change occurred.

Suddenly, a crack appeared in the sky of the undead demiplane, revealing a mysterious, dark void. Immediately afterward, a bolt of purple lightning descended from the void, carrying an imposing and inviolable divine might, and struck the skeleton warrior summoned by Zhu Ziyang. In an instant, a Soul King-level undead creature was completely annihilated, leaving not a trace behind!

"This..." The sudden turn of events terrified Zhu Ziyang. He clearly felt the power of judgment contained in the lightning bolt, as if it were warning him, leaving him at a loss as he looked at Electrolux.

Electrolux was also stunned by the lightning that had intruded into the undead demiplane. After a moment of stunned silence, he gave a helpless, bitter smile and said to Zhu Ziyang, "Alas! Ziyang, I was careless and overlooked the constraints of the laws of heaven and earth. It seems that the necromancy spell cannot be used on the Douluo Continent. The Purple Heaven Divine Lightning just now was a warning!"

"Huh?" Zhu Ziyang couldn't help but gape, feeling both lingering fear and disbelief. He asked, "Teacher, do you mean the rules of Douluo Continent don't allow the appearance of undead creatures? Then why can I summon undead creatures from the Undead Demiplane to Douluo Continent?"

"You didn't understand what I meant!" Electrox explained. "What I meant was that the rules of Douluo Continent don't allow creatures from the Underworld of Douluo Continent to appear in the mortal realm. The undead creatures in the Undead Demiplane are all creatures from my world, so naturally they don't exist under the rules of Douluo Continent. It seems you can no longer use the Undead Summoning Technique from now on."

"I see!" Zhu Ziyang was disappointed upon hearing this. He had studied the necromancy spell for so long, but he couldn't use it. This was really frustrating.

"Don't be disappointed," Electrox comforted her. "The necromancy spell is something you can do without anyway. Having it is just icing on the cake, not having it won't hinder your strength. Besides, it's just that you can't use the necromancy spell, but don't you still have the other necromancy spells I taught you?"

"Yes, I understand, teacher." Electrolux's words of comfort improved Zhu Ziyang's mood considerably. Then, remembering the lightning from earlier, he asked with curiosity, "Teacher, what was that lightning just now?"

"Purple Heaven Divine Thunder, the most powerful thunder in the world, a terrifying thunder formed by the purest origin of the Great Dao and the righteous energy of heaven and earth. It is said to be the executor of world punishments, and the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder will only descend when the rules of the world are violated," Electrox said with a tone of awe.

"Like we were just now?" Zhu Ziyang clicked his tongue, feeling his lips dry and his mouth weak as he spoke.

"Hmm!" Electrox nodded helplessly and said, "It is said that a single bolt of Purple Heaven Divine Lightning can easily kill a ninth-tier professional, which is your Title Douluo. So we'd better be honest and not try the necromancy spell lightly."

"I understand, teacher!" Zhu Ziyang nodded repeatedly, indicating that he understood.

The sheer power of the Thunder God, capable of easily annihilating a Title Douluo, was incredibly shocking to Zhu Ziyang. Even without Ilex's warning, he wasn't prepared to use the Necromancer Summoning Technique again; he hadn't lived enough yet! At least, before becoming a god, he couldn't afford to provoke the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder again.

"If I become a god, I should be able to deal with the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder," Zhu Ziyang thought, recalling the mysterious divine voice. Three or four months had passed since that divine voice appeared, yet Zhu Ziyang still found it difficult to calm his turbulent emotions whenever he thought of it.
