Douluo Continent: The Eternal Order of the Azure Sky.

Kong Tianxu bent down and picked up the dull trident of Poseidon.

"It's time to move things in the city too."

……

Meanwhile, outside Sunrise City.

"That kid Huo Yuhao really knows how to do things." Tang Dalong put down his monocular telescope and grinned.

From their vantage point, everything on the north gate city wall appeared normal—patrol teams moved back and forth in a steady rhythm, and detection soul guides methodically scanned the open fields outside the city; everything was in perfect order.

Chapter 365 Encirclement and Kill

Before leaving, Huo Yuhao told them that once he successfully infiltrated the city, he would create a small-scale disturbance as a signal.

Through his binoculars, Tang Dalong saw what appeared to be a brief exchange of blows on the city wall. Although it subsided quickly, the light from the collision of soul power was particularly striking in the morning light.

In his view, this was undoubtedly clear evidence that Huo Yuhao's actions had caused a disturbance among the Sun Moon Guards in Sunrise City.

"I told you long ago, the Sun Moon Empire's defenses are nothing compared to Junior Brother's. Now you know that, right?"

Xu Sanshi leaned casually against Beibei, a blade of grass he'd plucked from who-knows-where dangling from his mouth, looking quite smug.

Both of them were looking towards the north gate, but their expressions were different. Beibei frowned slightly, as if she was thinking about something.

"Don't worry," Xu Sanshi spat out the grass stem and patted Bei Bei's shoulder, "That kid Xiao Yuhao is as clever as a monkey, he'll be fine. We'll just wait for the signal, then rush in to pick him up."

Beibei didn't speak, but her gaze never left the direction of the North Gate city wall.

Above the various soul-guided devices on the city wall, which appeared somber and austere, thick, lead-gray clouds hung low, casting an ominous glow.

Once again, the corner of his eye twitched uncontrollably.

Inside the city, on the second floor of a teahouse.

Wang Qiu'er, who had been resting with her eyes closed, suddenly felt a pang of heart palpitation.

Her eyes were closed, and a barely visible golden light quietly lit up and extended from the center of her forehead. The surroundings seemed to fall silent and dim for a moment, as if awaiting judgment.

But after a short while, Wang Qiu'er opened her eyes in a daze.

Why is it that I feel a strange unease, yet fate gives me no response? Even though the connection between my fate and Huo Yuhao's was severed by that sword a year ago, why can't I feel my own fate anymore?

Could it be... you?

She instinctively placed her hand on her chest, where a coin-shaped hard object radiated a faint warmth between the full cleavage, calming her heart slightly.

Unbeknownst to her, Kong Tianxu's Heavenly Will Sword had already enveloped the entire Sunrise City. No connection or perception between destinies could escape this prison city; here, he was destiny itself.

Behind Wang Qiu'er, two middle-aged men from the three upper sects had already put down their teacups at some point.

The two exchanged a glance. The one with the more prominent chin seemed to sense something, stood up, walked to the window, and narrowed his eyes.

The teahouse is getting less and less crowded.

The second floor, which had been packed with people just moments before, now seemed rather empty. A few footsteps echoed at the top of the stairs before fading away. Outside the window, early-rising vendors were beginning to set up their stalls; everything seemed normal.

wrong.

His pupils suddenly contracted.

The warning signs in his heart erupted like a volcano, and a chill ran from his tailbone straight to the top of his head. He no longer hesitated, and his aura suddenly exploded like a volcano that had been suppressed for too long.

"trap!"

In that instant, his body rose several inches, and his joints cracked and popped, as if some wild beast was awakening inside him.

The unassuming gray robe draped over his body was torn to shreds by the violent shockwave, and the middle-aged man's originally plain face suddenly hardened like solidified molten iron.

Two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red—nine spirit rings rose from beneath his feet, with the red spirit ring at the top emitting a chilling crimson aura.

The Haotian Hammer was acquired; it was jet black and as large as a city gate.

The Legend of Douluo Dalu, Tang Yunyue.

The other one then revealed his true form. Ningguta's gaunt figure emerged from the tattered robe, his entire body shrouded in black mist, and his bones emitted a series of teeth-grinding cracking sounds.

His body began to swell, his skin clinging tightly to his bones, making him look like a reassembled skeletal giant, with two eerie green flames burning silently in his sunken eye sockets.

"Since it's a trap, then we won't hide it." Tang Yunyue's voice seemed to roll from the depths of his chest, deep and powerful. "A direct attack!"

He took a step forward, and his figure crashed through the gatehouse, appearing outside the teahouse.

Almost at the same moment he unleashed his power, the vendors and pedestrians on the street all moved at once.

The disguises vanished in an instant, revealing the uniform military uniforms of the Sun Moon Empire and the white robes of the Holy Spirit Cult underneath.

Hundreds of soul power fluctuations erupted simultaneously, converging on the teahouse from every corner of the streets and alleys. The dozen or so leading soul masters had already prepared soul-guided cannons in their hands, the energy at the muzzles flashing with a dangerous light.

Faced with the encirclement, Tang Yunyue's spirit rings suddenly lit up, and the patterns on his Clear Sky Hammer were fully activated, like ancient totems awakening. His powerful aura instantly swept across the sky.

But there was a figure who was even faster than him. Wang Qiu'er's agile figure was like a female leopard, and she rushed out in an instant!

A dazzling golden light, carrying an incomparably majestic aura, burst into the formation. The golden light, like a swimming dragon, rapidly bloomed, and a deafening dragon roar proudly rang out. The roar rolled on, and the surrounding area was already a brilliant gold.

However, the Soul Masters stationed in Sunrise City were also well-trained. The Soul Guidance Device array instantly erupted with beams of intense light, weaving a dazzling net of death in the air. But Tang Yunyue had already swung his hammer.

A dark golden aura emanated from him and spread outwards. The surrounding Soul Masters of the Sun Moon Empire hesitated for a moment and were all forced to retreat.

Level 97!

Yes, just recently, thanks to the afterglow of Tang Wutong's divine test, he also successfully broke through the barrier that had troubled him for many years and officially entered the ranks of level ninety-seven.

Once you reach the Super Douluo level of 95 or above, every level difference is like night and day.

"What an amazing girl! Yue Yunpeng, finish this quickly, don't embarrass yourself in front of the younger generation."

Ningguta's gaze swept coldly over the Sun Moon Empire's forces that were being swept in from all directions, and a mocking smile appeared on his lips.

The two of them, confident in their strength, did not trust Shrek's plan at all. They originally intended to rescue the person themselves, otherwise, if Shrek rescued the person, who would they be grateful to?

The three leaders must take the lead in accomplishing great things!

The massive skeleton of Ningguta rose up, and black light, like ink, surged from its body, deforming and expanding around it, vaguely taking on the shape of a dragon.

A chilling and ancient aura emanated from the black mist. Within the mist, enormous skeletons emerged from the void, snapping and meshing together with a sickening cracking sound.

Bone wings unfurled from the black mist, each wing bone several meters long, with black energy fascia connecting the joints. The enormous dragon skull rose from the black mist, its empty eye sockets burning with eerie green flames, and its jaw opened, emitting a silent roar.

A colossal dragon forged from bones has emerged from nowhere!

This is his martial soul, a top-tier martial soul inherited from the Bone Douluo Gu Rong ten thousand years ago—the Ghostly Skeleton.

Initially, this martial soul was not particularly powerful, but its most unique feature was that it could change or evolve the form of its own skeleton by absorbing the soul rings and soul bones of different soul beasts, reaching or even surpassing the abilities of the corresponding soul beasts in life.

Ningguta hunted thousands of spirit beasts throughout his life, and the most exquisite parts of them were integrated into his own martial soul, forging his skeleton into a mobile biological arsenal.

At this moment, his ninth-ranked black spirit ring shone brightly, and he unleashed his most powerful ninth spirit skill: Bone Transformation Dragon.

With a flap of its wings, the bone dragon charged toward the densest formation of the Sun Moon Empire's soul guides, its massive bone claws sweeping across and overturning one soul guide cannon after another.

But before anyone knew it, a figure appeared silently on the side of Ningguta.

She didn't shout and charge like the others, nor did she unleash any earth-shattering soul skills. She simply stood there quietly, like a stone forgotten in a corner.

But Ningguta's intuition had been honed to an excessively sharp level during his two-hundred-year career as a Soul Master. Almost the instant that figure appeared, he sensed danger.

He whirled around, the Bone Dragon switching to defensive form, its thick bone armor layered upon layer protecting its vitals. At the same time, its massive jaws opened and closed, and countless white bones, accompanied by the flash of its eighth spirit ring, shot out from the ground. Dense barbs and bone blades spread and rose, forming a path of death that pierced into the opponent's body.

Second Soul Skill: Bone Armor; Third Soul Skill: Bone Hyperplasia; Eighth Soul Skill: Path of the Dead.

But that was just an afterimage!

The blood-red light tore through space and arrived in front of him in an instant. Five dark gold claw-like beams, flowing with blood, tore through the air and shot out!

The Path of the Dead was torn to shreds the moment it touched the claws, the bone armor followed suit and crumbled, bone fragments flying everywhere, then the third layer, then the fourth layer.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw's speed showed almost no decrease, tearing through his bone armor layer by layer as if breaking through the surface of water.

Ningguta roared, and the bone dragon's entire body turned into a deep, inky black, its claws clashing fiercely with the dark gold claws!

squeak--! ! !

The ear-piercing metallic scraping sound caused everyone within dozens of feet to cover their ears. Ningguta groaned, and the Bone-Transforming Dragon couldn't help but take a step back. As if it had exploded, it suddenly burst out with countless viscous black streams, and the entire dragon shrank a size.

Such immense power! Such incredible speed! Such sharp, dark gold claws!

But this is totally illogical! How can you be so strong, fast, and have such high attack power?!

The ethereal green light in the Bone Dragon's eye sockets flickered with surprise and uncertainty as it looked at its opponent, who had been captured by its soul skill.

Like maggots, the undercurrents surged and tangled in the air, creating a blood-red shadow.

It was a young girl.

She had a beautiful and aloof face, but her eyes were a glaring scarlet. Her white hair flew in the air, and her enormous, blood-red wings, which blotted out the sky, were fully spread out, like a peerless giant sword. The power and sharpness contained within them sent chills down one's spine.

Behind her, the faint phantom of a blood-red bat with nine heads appeared.

Nine heads simultaneously opened their mouths filled with sharp teeth. Eight of them had different colored halos floating behind them: two yellow, one purple, three black, and two red. They were eight-ring Soul Douluos, eight-ring Soul Douluos with two 100,000-year Soul Rings.

Before the battle, Kong Tianxu specifically took Cain into seclusion once to help her absorb the soul ring and soul bone from the King of Slaughter and the 100,000-year-old Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King.

Cain's foundation was excellent, and the evolution of his inherited martial soul was virtually guaranteed to proceed smoothly under the dual suppression of Kong Tianxu's sacred dragon and the destructive divinity. Cain's martial soul had completely evolved, becoming a true super martial soul—

The Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King, in its true form, was both noble and ferocious, letting out a silent shriek towards Ningguta.

The eerie green soul flame flickered for a moment, and Ningguta involuntarily took another step back, freeing the blood-red nine-headed bat king.

Ningguta was horrified to discover that cracks had appeared on the surface of his bone claws, and in some places even small fragments had broken off.

Keep in mind, he is a genuine defensive-type Super Douluo! Relying on his ninth soul skill, which combines the energy of countless soul beast bones and corpses, his Black Bone Divine Dragon form is so powerful that even a full-force attack from a titled Douluo of the same level might not be able to shake him.

But this girl in front of him, who looked to be under twenty, actually cracked his true form with a single claw strike.

What Ningguta was even more concerned about was that Cain's dark golden claws faintly carried a strange blood-red hue.

That power seems to have a natural restraint on all evil and eerie auras. And the ghostly skeletons and strange bones of Ningguta rely on this to a large extent.

With this shift in power, he actually lost the battle in a head-on confrontation!

Unbeknownst to him, Cain was also shocked that her attack had failed to severely injure him, after all, it was her strongest attack delivered in an instant.

Before Ningguta could recover from the shock, an even more violent roar came from the east side of the street.

Wang Qiu'er completely unleashed her power.
