Douluo Continent: The Eternal Order of the Azure Sky.

……

From afar, Xie Lixin saw the small courtyard and pavilion that he saw as a den of demons, and he paused in his tracks.

He walked briskly to the gate before realizing that his back was covered in cold sweat.

That was too close... The young master's intuition is terrifyingly sharp. He clearly hadn't revealed any flaws, yet the young master had still been watching him for so long.

If it weren't for his top-notch military skills honed through years of intelligence work and that miraculous pill that could suppress his heartbeat, blood flow, and even emotional fluctuations to a state of utmost rationality, he probably wouldn't have had the chance to rescue his daughter at all.

I'm sorry, Lord. You've been so kind to me, but I have no choice but to do this for my daughter's sake.

He stood before that unremarkable door, much like those of the surrounding thousands of houses, and calmed his tense mood slightly. The discomfort within him, which seemed to be caused by a mix of guilt and excitement, fluctuated between icy coldness and burning heat.

Xie Lixin raised his hand and knocked lightly on the door, five times in total, three long and two short. Then he took out a round token, his fingertips trembling slightly, and he accidentally dropped it on the ground. After hurriedly picking it up, he pursed his pale lips and stuffed the token into the crack in the door.

It was a completely black plaque with two skulls faintly carved on it.

"Password."

He composed himself and said in a deep voice, "May the Holy Emperor live ten thousand years."

"Squeak-"

The door opened. A dark figure abruptly pulled him inside.

"Is everything taken care of?"

Xie Lixin steadied himself and looked at the old man in black robes who had his back to him. From behind, the man's face seemed to have changed again; his skin was much whiter and more delicate, but his nightmarish, hoarse voice remained unchanged.

"I've done as you said. Now it's your turn to keep your promise and give Shu Yu back to me!"

"Hehe." The Original Sin Douluo chuckled, his laughter as grating as the sound of glass rubbing together.

"What do you mean? Are you trying to go back on your word?" Xie Lixin's eyes were bloodshot.

"Let me tell you, I've already deployed over a dozen military-grade trigger-activated signal missiles on my person, ready to notify the Palace Master at any time. You bunch of rats in the gutter, all you do is these shady things. Once the Palace Master finds out that you were the ones who attacked Kong Tianxu, you will all be wiped out!"

With a slight movement of his soul power, countless orange-red orbs of light immediately shone from his body.

"Tsk. Well then... here you go."

Original Sin Douluo stepped aside, allowing him to see what had been hidden by his robe.

If you ignore the scarlet mark on her face, the girl's sleeping posture is graceful and serene, like a sleeping swan.

It was lifeless.

"what--!"

Xie Lixin looked at the familiar face on the face of the Original Sin Douluo, the face he had raised alone, his pupils bloodshot, and without hesitation detonated all the signal transmission missiles!

The orange-red light expanded violently—

Yet it vanished into nothingness in an instant.

"You dare to show off your level six soul tool in front of me? You bunch of Sun Moon idiots, how could you possibly understand the power of a martial soul?"

"Original Sin Douluo said jokingly."

With a gentle squeeze of his right hand, Xie Lixin's body immediately swelled up slightly.

“Ants like you are destined to be toyed with and then crushed by me. That’s true for you, and it’s even more true for that kid surnamed Kong.”

He admired Xie Lixin's eyes, which bulged outward due to the immense force, her swollen skin, and her wrinkled, girlish face, all with a look of satisfaction.

Xie Lixin's body swelled up more and more terrifyingly, as if he were an inflated balloon. His skin was stretched to its maximum, and the bruises that had accumulated in his blood vessels were clearly visible and looked particularly grotesque.

That's not right, I definitely didn't use that much force.

Original Sin Douluo raised an eyebrow and then released the soul power restraint.

At that very moment—

The purplish-blue and blood-red hues transformed into a rainbow of light that spread outwards! Within Xie Lixin's enormous, over-expanded maw, a core of soul power, condensed to its extreme, faintly emerged.

Then, it erupted with a roar!

A chaotic surge of elemental energy swept across all directions! The super-elemental resonance, which concentrated all of Kong Tianxu's soul power, displayed terrifying power, instantly erupting with a force comparable to a level seven fixed-position soul tool!

Amidst vicious curses, the raggedly dressed Original Sin Douluo soared into the sky.

Looking at the almost completely destroyed attic and the rapidly illuminating soul-guided lights around it, he gritted his teeth and immediately flew towards a corner of Mingdu.

……

On the boundless golden plaza, two pairs of deep purple eyes gaze at each other from afar.

Kong Tianxu looked at the young man before him, who also had silver hair and purple eyes, but was enveloped in a milky white halo, and spoke first:

"If I remember correctly, someone should tell me the adventure content for the Deep Adventure level. Who are you?"

"How did you know?"

The man didn't answer his question; instead, he asked with great interest.

"I read it in books. I've read a lot of books since I was a child," Kong Tianxu replied earnestly, his eyes sparkling with a jade-like brilliance.

The next second, a flash of golden light appeared, and his soul power instantly decreased by a fraction.

When did he make his move? How could the Myriad Origins Domain be triggered? Kong Tianxu was shocked.

He had both Elemental Vision and X-ray Vision activated. The former seemed to have lost its function, while the latter remained intact, but could only reveal that the other party was an unusual white in this golden world.

The man was clearly even more surprised and laughed:

"Although I can't sense your spiritual power, you're clearly lying, but why does it feel so real to me?"

Seeing Kong Tianxu's suddenly serious expression, he shook his head:

"There are a few others watching, so I won't tease you anymore. Your test this time is to beat me when I first entered the Seventh Ring. You're unlucky to have accidentally entered this kind of deep adventure. Although I'm happy that the first person I've seen after regaining my freedom in so many years is so interesting, I won't go easy on you."

He smiled, his words no longer frivolous, his face filled with a solemn and dignified expression:

"Holy Spirit, come again to earth!"

Within the holy, platinum-gold light, seven spirit rings—one yellow, two purple, three black, and one red—rose one by one. A phantom slowly emerged from behind him—

Its torso is long and streamlined with sharp angles, and behind it, like a legendary six-winged angel, six holy wings of light unfold. Upon closer inspection, however, these are not wings, but rather tendrils resembling bands of light, and even its head is formed by similar spiraling bands of light. The golden vertical eyes surrounding its body are incredibly deep, and the pure white halo behind it emits a mysterious glow.

Sacred, yet twisted.

Kong Tianxu remained silent, his Silver Dragon Martial Soul instantly possessing him. A flash of lightning appeared, and he was already close to the man. Amidst the majestic dragon might, the fifth-ranked black soul ring instantly lit up.

He threw a punch, creating a deafening sonic boom, which instantly slammed into the opponent's chest!

Fifth Soul Skill, Golden Blood Rage, an extreme enhancement of the physical body.

The dragon's wrath shook the heavens.

Chapter 84 Holy Spirit Puppet (Ten chapters already released, please grant all requests)

With the immense power boost from his fifth soul skill and the perfect application of his own martial soul, Kong Tianxu's punch was truly earth-shattering.

He was confident that, at his current peak physical level, even an eight-ring Soul Douluo would be unable to withstand this punch with his bare body.

Sure enough, he saw obvious surprise in the other person.

Yet they showed no fear whatsoever.

Amidst the dazzling golden light, Kong Tianxu's dragon fist, covered in golden scales, pierced through his chest, leaving behind streaks of blood-red, white-gold light.

He used the momentum to spin around and dissipate the force, then thoughtfully shook his arm.

He didn't feel any real impact from that punch.

"You are a condensation of pure spiritual energy? This realm has both form and substance?"

Kong Tianxu suddenly looked up and stared at the man's body, which seemed to disperse and then regroup like clouds, unable to hide his astonishment.

"That's right. You really know a lot."

The man's body was not yet fully closed, but he did not pay attention to his own body. Instead, he stared intently at the dragon scales on Kong Tianxu's hand that were gradually losing their golden color.

"Silver Dragon Martial Soul, Golden Dragon Bloodline, and some other things I don't understand. If your cultivation were a little higher, and you truly integrated your spiritual power into your physical attacks, that strike just now would have been enough to severely injure me. It seems your talent is no less than mine."

The man's expression finally turned serious.

"But why is your spiritual power so weak? It's still in the formless and intangible realm. The Silver Dragon Martial Soul shouldn't be like this."

In the realm of gods, the God of Destruction adjusted his cloak somewhat uncomfortably.

Kong Tianxu's expression turned solemn. He could accept that his sudden attack had missed, but the fact that his physical attacks were completely ineffective against his opponent greatly limited his combat options. Moreover, his opponent had actually reached the tangible and tangible realm at the seventh ring. This trial was far more difficult than he had imagined.

And then there was that fleeting glimpse of that strange golden light after his body was shattered...

If physics doesn't work, then try elements.

The first four spirit rings, three purple and one black, flashed almost simultaneously, and the next moment, thunder, fire, wind and ice roared in!

Berserker Lightning Flash, ineffective!

Solar storm, ineffective!

The cold snow mark is ineffective!

Kong Tianxu had never fought such a strange battle before. His opponent had a spirit ring, but it seemed that he had not used a single spirit skill because of the lack of physical spirit power supply. He was simply relying on his own mental power to deal with him.

However, his conventional methods were completely ineffective against his opponent, but through the unpredictable use of his mental power, he was able to transfer all of his attacks without leaving any gaps.

Furthermore, the illusory martial spirit behind him seemed to have its own consciousness, launching strange attacks on his spiritual sea from time to time from unknown sources. Although the Myriad Beginnings Returning to Origin Domain failed to cause him any effective damage, it still consumed a large amount of his soul power. Even with the Saint Yuan Spirit Gathering continuously replenishing his soul power, his soul power consumption quickly exceeded half.

This can't go on any longer. Kong Tianxu's eyes flickered. In this strange space, he couldn't even use any soul tools.

"boom--"

It was another collision of elements and spiritual power. The Wan Shi Gui Yuan Domain flashed with golden light, and Kong Tianxu quickly turned around, narrowly dodging a spiritual chain.

With a slight twitch of his eyes, just as he was about to launch his next attack, the man who had been on his right suddenly appeared on his left flank, where his strength had not yet been fully utilized!

A sharp, needle-like pain shot through Kong Tianxu's brain, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood. Golden tentacles wrapped around him, and the man pointed a finger at his brow.

"I've got you. Actually, I can use my mental power to directly use soul skills."

"Fool."

The God of Destruction was exasperated. The Goddess of Life beside him looked at him with slight surprise. This young man was already exceptionally talented. If it weren't for the apparent problem with his Silver Dragon Martial Soul, he would never have been defeated so quickly. What was Azi saying?
