Douluo Continent: The Myriad Body of Truth and Falsehood

Chapter 90 The Eternal Holy Spirit Sui Mou (Seeking Votes)

Shrek City, Spirit Tower

Qian Gu Dongfeng stood with his hands behind his back by the window, gazing at the distant sky. A gloomy feeling settled over him. Having witnessed the battle of the gods, none of the Limit Douluos could maintain their previous detached composure. They, who were only one step away from the gods, now held the supreme divine position in the highest esteem.

Miracles are rare. After a great battle, the three gods disappeared into the universe. It is unknown who won the final victory or whether they all went into hiding.

In short, Qian Gu Dong Feng can be certain that a plane master exists in Douluo Continent, and he has always been watching from behind.

This alarmed him. He wondered if the plans of the Spirit Pagoda and the Holy Spirit Cult were also under the watchful eye of the Plane Lord. He had begun cooperating with the Holy Spirit Cult decades ago, and now the relationship was so intertwined that it was impossible to sever ties.

dong dong!

Two knocks sounded, and the door to the office of the highest authority in the Spirit Pagoda was pushed open. The newcomer did not greet Qian Gu Dongfeng at all and sat down in the main seat as soon as he entered.

Upon closer inspection, this man had white hair and an old face, and his features were weathered. However, his brows and eyes were somewhat similar to those of Qian Gu Dong Feng. He was Qian Gu Die Ting, Qian Gu Dong Feng's father, and the previous tower master of the Spirit Transmission Tower.

Upon seeing his father arrive, Qian Gu Dongfeng hurriedly went to greet him, slightly surprised: "Father, weren't you in seclusion?"

Upon hearing this, Qian Gu Die Ting sighed deeply: "If I continue in seclusion, I'm afraid I'll never see a single miracle in my lifetime. Dong Feng, how's the investigation into the Plane Lord, the Nameless Zombie, and that Abyss God going?"

Qian Gu Die Ting had not appeared in the world for a long time. When he finally appeared, he encountered the war between the three gods. He was also a level 99 Limit Douluo, with the Martial Soul Panlong Staff and nine red Soul Rings. He was known as the one with the greatest burst of power among Limit Douluos.

His signature move, a martial art that can fight against heaven and earth, is the Battle Heaven Douluo.

He doesn't have much time left, only a little over twenty years. Now that he has encountered a miracle, why would he continue to work in isolation?

"Father, the giant hammer that the Plane Lord condensed at that time should have been the Haotian Hammer. As for the nameless zombie, it is unknown, but it should be a subordinate of the future God of All Trades. As for the gray and pale abyssal demon shadow, this has been verified with the Blood God Legion, and it is indeed the king of abyssal creatures, the Abyssal Saint King."

Qian Gu Dong Feng paused for a moment, then continued, "Moreover, we speculate that one's lifespan should be endless after becoming a zombie."

"What!?" Qian Gu Die Ting was shocked, and his hand holding the teacup trembled slightly.

The near-endless lifespan is a fatal attraction for countless powerful Soul Masters, especially for Soul Masters like Qian Gu Die Ting who yearn for godhood but are only one step away from it.

"Father, this is still top secret. Only a handful of people across the entire Douluo Continent know about it."

The Spirit Tower, Shrek Academy, and the Federation all know that once the news of zombies' endless lifespans spreads, it will inevitably cause turmoil in the world. But this cannot be kept secret for long; perhaps one day, a zombie will inadvertently reveal this secret.

Qian Gu Die Ting paused for a second, his eyes narrowing slightly, and said meaningfully, "Wan Ye?"

After a moment, he regained his composure and asked again, "How's it going with the Holy Spirit Cult? Is the plan progressing smoothly?"

Qian Gu Dongfeng nodded: "Everything is going smoothly, but the plan is slow. We are still stealing the level 12 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell. However, the current changes in Wanye have made the defense of the three level 12 god-killing soul-guided cannon shells, which were made with all the resources, extremely tight. At the Federation meeting, everyone unanimously decided to send one level 12 soul-guided cannon shell to the far north in order to deal with the future Abyss and Wanye."

"So, the remaining two are difficult to obtain?"

Qian Gu Dongfeng looked troubled: "Yes."

At that time

Ding Ding!

The sound of the soul-guided communication stirred the hearts of the father and son. This soul-guided communication was top secret, and the contact on the other end was the Ghost Emperor, one of the two emperors of the Holy Spirit Cult, and a partner of the Spirit Pagoda.

Why is he calling at this moment?

Hesitating for a moment, Qian Gu Dongfeng exchanged a glance with his father, answered the phone, lowered his voice, and said, "Ghost Emperor."

Surprisingly, the Ghost Emperor's voice on the other end sounded joyful: "Master of the Ancient Tower, how have you been?"

"What brings you here at this hour? If it concerns the war between the three gods, I have nothing to say."

"No, I wanted to ask about the progress of stealing the God-Slaying Soul-Guided Cannonballs. My people told me that the guards there have been doubled, and entry and exit are extremely strictly controlled." The Ghost Emperor stated his purpose: "Even your Spirit Pagoda's people wouldn't be able to sneak in and steal two, would they?"

The eternal east wind remains silent.

"Hehe, Master of the Ancient Tower, don't be discouraged, I have a way."

Upon hearing this, Qian Gu Dong Feng finally spoke: "What's your solution?"

"The one who tied the knot must untie it. The war between the three gods has made the Federation extremely concerned about the three level-twelve god-killing soul-guided cannons. It is said that they have the power to kill gods, but whether they can do so still needs to be tested. Now, the three gods correspond to the three cannons, don't they?"

"What do you mean? I'm asking you how you managed to steal the God-Slaying Soul-Guided Cannonball!" Qian Gu Dongfeng felt that the Ghost Emperor was just giving him the runaround.

Seeing that Qian Gu Dong Feng had lost patience, and that the Ghost Emperor had achieved his goal, he said in a deep voice, "We have made contact with the nameless zombie among the three gods, and he is willing to help us."

"What—!?" Qian Gu Dongfeng was shocked, and for the first time, he lost his composure.

Even Qian Gu Die Ting, standing beside him, suddenly stood up upon hearing these words, his face turning serious.

Qian Gu Dongfeng struggled to control his breathing, his heart pounding even faster than when he first met Leng Yaozhu: "What does that deity require?"

The Ghost Emperor chuckled: "He wants us to attack Shrek Academy as planned."

Clang!

Qian Gu Dongfeng's heart sank to the bottom. Sure enough, to the gods, his dealings with the Holy Spirit Cult were completely exposed. However, he quickly adjusted his mindset and asked, "What if the Lord of the Plane intervenes?"

"Then he'll take action. In short, nobody wants Shrek Academy to continue existing. Understand?"

"."

The latest novel is first published here!

Qian Gu Dong Feng fell silent again, feeling as if he had boarded a pirate ship and couldn't get off.

No, he himself is the pirate ship.

Knowing that Qian Gu Dongfeng was hesitating, the Ghost Emperor spoke again: "After the matter is accomplished, the secret to becoming a god will be revealed to us. This is personally authorized by that god. Although it is not very credible, it is better than nothing."

"good!"

Qian Gu Dongfeng agreed without hesitation this time.

Somewhere in Douluo Continent

The Ghost Emperor, looking at the egoless dharma image clinging to the face of an ordinary evil spirit master before him, ended his communication with Qian Gu Dong Feng and said, "May I ask... what is your name, sir?"

"Years have passed."

"Lord Suiyuan, are you satisfied with this?" the Ghost Emperor asked with a smile.

"Ha~ You're quite good, extremely suitable to become a Dharma Corpse." Sui Yuan chuckled. He hadn't made any promise to become a god; the Ghost Emperor had just made that up.

"I know all too well what those people in high positions, who have no worries about food and clothing, want. Even if it's a lie, they would rather believe it. After all, countless Limit Douluos have disappeared in their lifespan over the past ten thousand years."

"Whatever, I'm leaving." Sui Yuan didn't say anything more.

"Wait!" the Ghost Emperor exclaimed, stopping in his tracks.

"What is it?"

"I'd like to ask, how can one become what you call a 'legal corpse'?"

"Be chosen by the true blood of all professions; whether you succeed or not depends on your fate."

After the selfless Dharma form disappeared, the evil spirit master's body in front of him disintegrated into nothingness inch by inch and scattered with the wind.

The Ghost Emperor was unable to calm himself down for a long time. Looking at the location where Sui Yuan had just been, he remained silent. The Holy Spirit Cult was now in a position of power, with the Demon Emperor wanting to contact the Abyss, while Sui Yuan had come to him.

Should we tell the Demon Emperor?

Forget it.

Having an extra option is always beneficial. After we destroy Shrek Academy, we can ask Suiyuan for some benefits later.

After all, who wouldn't want such a capable subordinate?
