Douluo Continent: The Myriad Body of Truth and Falsehood

Chapter 76 Insufficient Cause and Effect

Bang bang—!

Along the coast of Donghai City, battles erupted one after another. The Spirit Tower organization took over the battlefield, and the appearance of mecha pilots and high-level soul masters perfectly curbed the attacks of sea soul beasts.

Although they charged forward fiercely, their offensive was contained by the soul-guided weapon beams equipped by numerous mech pilots.

The giant octopus and the Super Douluo-level branch tower master were locked in a stalemate. Feeling uneasy, it raised its tentacles to block an attack, scanned the coast, and saw that all kinds of beast groups had been forced back to the shore, while the beams of soul-guided lasers were mercilessly reaping the lives of sea soul beasts.

Seeing the situation was dire, the giant octopus turned its eyes bloodshot and its tentacles curled up. As its soul power suddenly erupted, the powerful shockwave forced even a Super Douluo to set up a defense, and it was blasted dozens of meters away.

"Stop sacrificing enough humans to welcome the coming of our Lord!"

"Only in this way can we repay the grace of our Lord who has created us again!"

The tower master was slightly taken aback, thinking to himself, "This blue-ringed octopus is known for its venom, yet today it exudes a terrifying aura of death, its eight tentacles are incredibly powerful, and it can even withstand soul-guided rays without sustaining any damage. It has undoubtedly become a zombie, but its current actions... are actually an attempt to sacrifice its life to welcome the birth of its master!"

The name Wanye has long been popular among the high-ranking Soul Masters, and the recent Douluo Continent anomalies are all related to him.

Upon hearing this, the horde of zombies turned bloodshot, losing all reason. Even while withstanding the dense barrage of soul-guided rays from the mech pilots, they continued their relentless charge. The advanced soul-guided technology amazed the beasts, but their fearless charge still tore a gap in the defensive line, and the beast tide surged once more, about to flood into the rear of the city.

The giant octopus is preparing its innate soul skill once again, the sea level is dropping rapidly, and the next tsunami is about to arrive.

"You beast, stop right now!"

"Get out of here!"

boom!

The two sides clashed again, the flames illuminating the night. The battle raged on, and the sub-tower master gritted his teeth. This damned body was too tough, leaving him no way to attack. He was wearing his three-word battle armor and a mecha, and although he wasn't afraid of the opponent's potent poison, the stalemate meant that casualties would only increase.

The tower master withdrew his power and retreated, his figure rising steadily as he roared, "You damned beast, today I will fight you to the death!"

He bit his tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood onto the sword. The illusory beast shadows instantly became lifelike and bloodthirsty, including phantoms of dragons, phoenixes, deep-sea demon whales, and so on. Even the branch tower master himself turned bloodshot and bled.

The giant octopus sensed something was wrong. It felt the suppression of its bloodline on the sword, causing its innate soul skill to suddenly stop. The man in front of it flashed his ninth soul ring, and his martial soul true form, which was a thousand meters long, appeared on the East Sea. Wherever the sword went, nothing could be stopped.

"Come, today we offer you as a sacrifice to welcome our Lord!"

The blue-ringed octopus refused to retreat. Its eight tentacles retracted and converged in mid-air. The blue halo in its mouth, tentacles, and body emitted a faint light. Countless natural soul forces were continuously drawn from the sea and formed a huge blue soul force cannonball in the air.

Both sides seemed to have unleashed their strongest attacks.

The outcome must be decided in one decisive move.

The branch tower master, his fighting spirit high, shouted: "For Donghai City, for the people of Donghai, you sea spirit beasts, die!"

The giant octopus was overjoyed: "No one can stop the rebirth of our Lord!"

Both sides unleashed their full power, their auras reaching their peak.

But just as things were about to escalate, a figure quietly appeared behind the giant octopus, his Tang Clan uniform standing out: "There's more than just the Spirit Pagoda in Donghai City."

!!!

The blue-ringed octopus was utterly horrified, for he saw that the newcomer was holding a fixed-position soul-guided cannonball in his hand and sensed a slight threat.

The newcomer chose this crucial moment before the final showdown, opting for the most time-efficient and effortless method to help the branch tower master end this farce. He calmly threw out the soul-guided cannonball, his fourth soul ring flashed, and a spatial portal opened beside him, allowing him to escape unscathed.

This person's martial soul is clearly related to space and is extremely compatible with it. However, his cultivation level is slightly low, not even reaching the level of a Super Douluo, and he has a three-word battle armor.

"Despicable"

Before the Blue Ring Octopus could finish speaking, a violent roar rang in its ears, causing its massive beast body to fall to the ground. Its strongest soul skill was interrupted, and the backlash followed. Its entire body exploded, and blood gushed out.

Then came the enormous Dharma sword that stretched across the sky, its blade slashing down to cleave the octopus in two.

Ding!

The tentacles reacted quickly, all six working together to block the sword, catching it barehanded. However, this time the stalemate only lasted a few seconds before the blood-red blade cleaved it in two. The beast's death signified the complete end of this beast tide, and its horde of sea spirit beast corpses were nothing more than lambs to the slaughter, not worth fearing.

Its body and brain were cleaved in two, yet the giant octopus still retained a trace of life. However, it ceased its struggles, raising its eyes to the sky: "Why hasn't my Lord descended? Is the karmic consequence of my tremor not great enough?"

With questions lingering, the beast died once more.

"Yes, it must be because I haven't killed enough."

However, at the last moment, it rejected itself. Faced with the deity who had given it a second life, it had no way to repay the debt and was willing to sacrifice itself for all things.

With the biggest disaster resolved, the branch master of the Spirit Pagoda and the head of the Tang Sect's East Sea branch showed no signs of reconciliation. Instead, they looked at each other with mutual disdain and contempt before returning to their respective teams to direct their subordinates to clear out the beast horde.

Only then did the branch tower master realize that the Tang Clan had secretly preserved the lives of many citizens. The death toll, which was originally expected to be tens of thousands, now seemed to have dropped significantly.

While admiring the Tang Clan leader, he was also extremely wary. The Tang Clan members were well-equipped and well-trained, and his old rival had just produced an eighth or ninth-level soul-guided cannon shell. Such extravagance—did they have a large stockpile? Or were they capable of mass production?

The heads of the Spirit Pagoda branches in each region and the heads of the Tang Sect branches have never gotten along, and have been openly and covertly fighting for a long time. Today, with the sea spirit beast attacking, the East Sea branch master originally wanted to see the Tang Sect make the first move while he observed the situation. However, the other party was too patient, and he couldn't hold back, so he made the first move.

The East China Sea Incident came to an end, while on the other side...

Shrek Outer City

Gu Yue stood guard beside Bai Xu, staring blankly at Bai Xu's increasingly illusory body. His arms, face, thighs, and so on all became illusory, turning into green flames that gathered directly above his forehead.

He is using supernatural powers.

After a long while, Bai Xu returned to normal and sighed, "What a pity~"

The causal force of the giant octopus's tremors was indeed too small to meet the standard for a war of cause and effect, and Wanye was unable to take this opportunity to break free from the constraints of reality and descend upon Douluo Continent.

"What's a pity?" Gu Yue asked, puzzled.

"If we succeed, it might bring forward the timeline of the war of cause and effect considerably. But it doesn't matter, let's rest for a bit. After tonight, we'll go take Shrek Academy's entrance exam."
