Douluo Continent: The Great Villain System, Intercepting Tianmeng's Ice Silkworm

Chapter 84 Encountering an Acquaintance Again

Not far away at the foot of the mountain, Jing Hongchen looked at the slowly crawling all-terrain detection soul guide with a look of satisfaction.

Once this soul tool is successfully developed, Mingde Hall's overall strength will experience a qualitative leap.

Meng Hongchen's semi-automatic soul-guided turret can also be connected to the all-terrain detection soul-guided device.

Suddenly, his smile vanished, his brows furrowed sharply, and his gaze involuntarily turned to the deepest part of the Jingyang Mountains, from which wisps of black energy emanated.

"It's them? Oh no!" As if she had guessed something, Jing Hongchen didn't dare to delay. She took to the air and headed towards the four people from Bo Saibei.

On the other side, Meng Hongchen was carefully piloting the soul tool when suddenly it shook violently.

"What's going on?" Xiao Hongchen was taken aback.

Meng Hongchen shook her head regretfully, "I don't know, I was just..."

"Boom—!" Before the words could be finished, a loud bang was heard, and a terrifying energy exploded from the bottom. The four people, along with the detector, plummeted down the hillside.

The all-terrain detection soul tool's defenses were not weak, but after the previous explosion and rolling down the mountain, the outermost glass cover was shattered, and the other parts made of alloy also had obvious cracks.

Everyone was injured to some extent in the explosion, but Xiao Hongchen was the most unlucky. He was closest to the explosion, and the right side of his body was almost entirely covered in blood.

Meng Hongchen was fine; most of the impact was blocked by Xiao Hongchen.

Also on the right is Gu Yuena, but Gu Yuena is the Silver Dragon King, so this attack is not even enough to tickle her.

Poseidon, who was sitting next to Gu Yuena, was much luckier and was not harmed at all.

Then Poseidon and Meng Hongchen dragged Xiao Hongchen out of the all-terrain detection soul tool.

Xiao Hongchen had already fainted. As his sister, Meng Hongchen was extremely anxious, and a tear glistened in the corner of her eye.

"Huh, he's not dead?" A deep voice rang out from beside me.

Poseidon turned around and saw an old man dressed in black.

His skin was also very dark, and his eyebrows were uneven, making him quite distinctive. On his forehead was a large black "王" (king) character.

Contrary to his deep voice, he was very thin.

The nine spirit rings under his feet and the tiger-type martial spirit behind him exuding an evil aura confirmed Poseidon's identity.

That was no ordinary tiger; its entire body was purplish-black, and its blood-red eyes were staring at me coldly.

Its tail is also different from that of ordinary tiger-type spirit beasts. Its tail is raised high, and at the end is a hook!

The Martial Soul Scorpion Tiger is derived from the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. Although it is not as powerful as the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, as its subspecies, its power should not be underestimated.

Meng Hongchen stood up angrily, pointed at Zhang Peng's nose, and shouted, "My Mingde Hall and your Holy Spirit Sect have always kept to ourselves. Why did you launch a sneak attack on us?"

Zhang Peng laughed heartily upon hearing this, his tone somewhat sarcastic, "Little girl, my target is naturally not you, but the boy beside you."

After saying that, he turned his gaze to Poseidon and said, "Boy, hand over the Soul Guidance Storage System technology, and I'll spare your life."

"Stop!" With a loud shout, Jing Hongchen arrived late, her face full of panic. Seeing her grandson's miserable state, she was immediately enraged.

"Does your Holy Spirit Cult want to start a war with my Mingde Hall?" He already had a guess in his heart and knew why he was ambushed, but how could Jing Hongchen be willing to let his own grandson be injured like this?

"Master Hongchen, I will give you an explanation regarding your grandson's matter later, but before that, let me deal with this brat first." Zhang Peng didn't take Jing Hongchen's threat seriously at all.

With Mingdetang's strength, it is not enough to make the Holy Spirit Church fear.

Jing Hongchen hesitated. If something happened to Poseidon, Shrek Academy would definitely cause trouble, but the Holy Spirit Cult was no less powerful than Shrek.

This is clearly a dead end; no matter who you help, you won't benefit!

Poseidon's eyes darted around, and he shouted, "You old codger, do you think the Hall Master will listen to you? Let me tell you, the Hall Master has long disliked your Holy Spirit Cult!"

"Your Holy Spirit Church is nothing but a stinking rat that everyone wants to beat. How dare you compare yourself to Mingde Hall?"

"You!" Jing Hongchen was stunned. When did he start to dislike the Holy Spirit Cult?

Okay, he certainly doesn't like it, but is it something he can say? Especially in front of people!

At this time, the emperor of the Sun Moon Empire had not yet considered unifying the continent, and naturally had no dealings with the Holy Spirit Cult.

As expected, upon hearing Poseidon's words, Zhang Peng's face darkened. He stiffly turned to look at Jing Hongchen and sneered, "It seems I truly underestimated Hall Master Hongchen. In that case, you may all stay here!"

After he finished speaking, his body suddenly turned into black mist, and amidst the billowing black mist, a huge tiger's head could be vaguely seen five meters away.

With a tiger's roar, the intense sound waves spread out, and countless shadows emerged from the black mist, transforming into countless soul beasts in the air, rushing towards Jing Hongchen with mournful cries.

Zhang Peng's martial soul is the Scorpion Tiger, a kind of evil martial soul that cultivates by devouring soul beasts. Although it is an evil martial soul, it is not pure.

What he is releasing now are beast souls formed by the combination of the souls of the soul beasts he had absorbed and his own spiritual power and soul power.

The latest novel is first published here!

This is Zhang Peng's signature move, extremely difficult to deal with. The beast soul has extremely strong resistance to physical attacks, and it also possesses both physical and mental attack capabilities.

As the user, Zhang Peng can transform into any of the beast souls within it at any time to launch a surprise attack.

Fortunately, he hasn't reached the Super Douluo level yet, and he's not a pure evil soul master, otherwise Jing Hongchen would be completely powerless to resist.

Jing Hongchen's eyes narrowed, a cold glint flashing within them.

With a flick of his right hand, a palm-sized, thin golden shield instantly appeared in his palm.

A faint golden halo flowed across the surface of the shield, as if it contained boundless power. As his soul power was rapidly poured into it, the shield suddenly enlarged, transforming into a huge golden barrier in the blink of an eye, blocking his way.

A dazzling golden light burst forth from the shield, like a golden sun, instantly illuminating the entire mountain range.

The light was not only dazzling, but also carried a powerful pressure, as if even the air itself was shaken by this power and became heavy.

Zhang Peng's attack was indeed powerful. The beastly shadow behind him roared and pounced on Jing Hongchen with destructive force.

However, the golden shield in Jing Hongchen's hand was an eighth-level defensive soul tool called the "Golden Cicada Shield," whose sturdiness far exceeded that of ordinary soul tools.

Complex soul-guiding runes appeared on the surface of the shield, each rune shimmering with brilliant golden light, as if telling of its extraordinary nature.

The moment the beast's shadow collided with the Golden Cicada Shield, a deafening roar erupted.

Under the golden light, the beastly figures seemed to melt away as quickly as ice and snow meeting the blazing sun.

Before long, Zhang Peng's attack was completely neutralized, and the beast's shadow vanished without a trace.

P.S.: The kids are too tired today, so only one update at a time.
