Douluo Continent: Long Live the Spirit Hall

Its body had turned a ghastly green in mid-air, bursting with green light and mist, and its shape had also changed slightly.

"Hey! Human, you want my soul ring and soul bone? Then I'll die with you!" The Demon Orca King roared hysterically, its body rapidly expanding as it ignited all the energy within it, growing larger than ever before.

"Self-destruct? You can't do it." As Bibi Dong spoke, her sixth soul ring flashed with black light waves. Her body in the sky tilted slightly to face the Demon Tiger Whale King. Her two emerald-like giant scythes rose up at the same time, diagonally crossing and slashing out a huge green fork-shaped wave.

The cross-shaped light blade instantly broke through the Demon Orca King's self-destruct defense. The Demon Orca King, exhausted, did not even have time to struggle before its body was pierced through, and its entire heart was pierced into four pieces.

This is one of Bibi Dong's most domineering single-target attack abilities, her sixth soul skill, Eternal Creation. Physical defense is ineffective, energy defense is reduced by 50%, and once it hits, the wound will spread endlessly, continuously consuming soul power until the opponent's soul power is exhausted and they die.

A dense green light swept over its entire body, and the energy ignited on the Demon Orca King began to be continuously worn down. Intense pain swept over its entire body, causing it, on the verge of death, to lose control of its body and energy.

Bibi Dong's body suddenly fell, and all eight spider spears pierced into the massive body of the Demon Orca King. The pale green light quickly gathered and continuously devoured the Demon Orca King's body. The latter's aura rapidly weakened to the extreme, and finally it was silent.

"It's over. But the people from Seagod Island should be here soon. I hope the teachers can act quickly." On the outer edge of the ocean battlefield, Yan stood on the Dragon Abyss Ship, overseeing the entire situation and observing the direction of Seagod Island. Beside him were Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo, who had recovered their strength. On the surrounding warships, there were also many high-level Soul Masters whose combat power remained at its peak.

Of course, the Spirit Hall couldn't just send a group of Soul Masters with varying strengths who had only reached the limits of their respective realms to carry out their plan this time.

The key to his plan was not how to use the Demon Soul Great White Shark to wipe out the Demon Orca Clan, but rather the follow-up work and the reaction from Seagod Island.

Poseidon Island previously refrained from interfering in the holy war between the Demon Orca Clan and the Demon Soul Great White Shark, a tradition that was deeply ingrained. Soul Masters from Poseidon Island rarely left the island and even less so would they easily intervene in the civil war among the Sea Soul Beasts.

However, this non-interference depends on the situation. Just as the Spirit Hall regards the entire Douluo Continent as its inherent territory, Seagod Island also regards the entire sea as its territory.

A fierce holy war broke out among the sea spirit beasts in the ocean. Even if one side belonged to the Sea God's mount clan under the command of their Sea God Island, they could remain 'fair' and stand by and watch. At most, they would wait for the Demon Soul Great White Shark to be defeated and escape into the territorial waters of Sea God Island before providing shelter.

But now the situation is different. Another human soul master force took advantage of the holy war between the two sea soul beast races to ambush and wipe out the Demon Tiger Whale clan. This is somewhat of a provocation against the authority of Seagod Island, and they cannot remain indifferent.

"Hey, humans, aren't you going to run?" Yan arrived near the Dragon Abyss Boat. A nearly 20-meter-long Demon Soul Great White Shark was blowing colorful bubbles. It was Bai Xiuxiu, who had just been severely injured by the Demon Orca King's water cannon.

Seeing that the crisis was over, it regained its lively state and even had the mind to come over to Yan's side to blow bubbles.

"I'm waiting for Poseidon Island's reaction." Yan casually tossed over a few fruits, and the white creature, Bai Xiuxiu, wasn't shy at all. It opened its big mouth and moved nimbly, swallowing all the fruits into its mouth.

"Gurgle...delicious...is there more..." Bai Xiuxiu's voice was very pleasant. She looked like a rather ferocious beast, but it was the voice of a little girl, the kind of little girl who was not yet grown up and could be easily kidnapped.

Yan casually tossed over a few more fruits. After eating them, she spoke again, "Don't worry, you've helped our Demon Soul Great White Shark clan this time. Seagod Island is familiar with us, so nothing will happen. Although humans attacking sea spirit beasts will result in a combined attack from the sea spirit beasts, it depends on the situation. What happened just now can be considered as you joining forces with our Demon Soul Great White Shark clan, which doesn't break the rules. Besides, those Demon Orca Clan guys usually do things that make the spirit beasts hate them too much. Everyone is hoping for their extermination. Haven't you noticed that no sea spirit beasts have come over for so long..." Bai Xiuxiu persuaded Yan from various angles. In her opinion, since the Demon Orca Clan was wiped out, the matter was over. The Demon Soul Great White Shark had won a great victory, and these humans didn't seem so bad after all.

"Bai Xiuxiu, who told you to run around like that?" A demon soul great white shark, more than 25 meters long, rushed to the front of the Dragon Abyss Boat. As the melodious female voice rang out, its body burst out of the seawater and soared into the air. A dazzling gray-blue light shone on its perfectly streamlined body.

Its body shrank rapidly in the light, and soon transformed into a young girl, who slowly landed on Bai Xiuxiu's back.

The girl had a tall and perfect figure, and her white leather-like outfit accentuated her figure. The beautiful curves made her look alluring, and her long gray-blue hair was draped down her back, reaching all the way down her fair back.

Her eyes were also grayish-blue, and her fair skin had a faint grayish-blue sheen. She had a high nose bridge and her face had some sharp, angular features, but they didn't look out of place at all. Instead, they were very distinctive and gave her a captivating exotic charm.

"Hmm, the little one hasn't taken human form yet, but the big one is indeed quite impressive. Who would have thought that this is a mother who has given birth to a child, and that the child has 70,000 years of cultivation?" Yan's eyes were fixed on the demon soul great white shark clan leader, Xiao Bai, who had taken human form. A playful smile played on his lips. It wasn't that he had any particular feelings for Xiao Bai, but rather that he was thinking about a question: Who is Bai Xiuxiu's father?

The woman who was actually the Demon Soul Great White Shark King ignored Yan and his group. Instead, she squatted down, stretched out her hands, and began to roughly grab Bai Xiuxiu's dorsal fin and fat shark face, giving them a good beating.

"You brat, you've already forgotten the pain before the wound has even healed..." Xiaobai scolded her daughter, and only after she finished disciplining her daughter did she slowly raise her head, her expression slightly complicated as she looked at Yan and his group.

"Humans, you are Soul Masters from the land, from that force called the Spirit Hall, right? This time, although you broke the rules set by Lord Sea God, as the patriarch of the Demon Soul Great White Shark clan, I must thank you." Xiao Bai's eyes were somewhat dazed. She herself couldn't remember how many years it had been. After repeated defeats in the Holy War, even her younger brother had died in battle. Each time, she and her clansmen had fled in panic to the inner sea of ​​Sea God Island to recuperate, living under the shadow of the Demon Orca.

Over the years, in every racial holy war, countless members of our race have perished in the jaws of the demonic killer whale.

Yet today, their mortal enemy has been utterly annihilated, while her people, the capital of the gods, have suffered no harm—it's like a dream.

However, she also knew in her heart that this matter must have violated the rules set by the Sea God, and these people in front of her would be punished by the Sea God Island.

She herself did not want to, but the Demon Soul Great White Shark clan was deeply favored by the Sea God and had to obey the Sea God's orders.

"And then what? Are you going to join forces with Seagod Island to deal with us?" Yan looked at Xiaobai in front of him and smiled slightly. His expression was calm and composed, as if the person in front of him was not some terrifying Demon Soul Great White Shark King, but just a young woman who looked like a girl.

"Lord Sea God, it's unlikely he would personally issue an order for my Demon Soul Great White Shark clan to go to war over such a trivial matter. Although the Demon Soul Great White Shark won this holy war against the Demon Orca Clan, we suffered heavy losses and must return to the inner sea of ​​Sea God Island as soon as possible to recuperate." It was unclear whether Xiao Bai was speaking to Yan or convincing herself. With a slight wave of her hand, many Demon Soul Great White Sharks gathered and swam back towards the underground passage in the inner sea of ​​Sea God Island.

"The people from Seagod Island have arrived. I wonder which of the Seven Pillars it is, or perhaps the High Priest. It's truly something to look forward to." On the Dragon Abyss Boat, Yan Yaoyao gazed at the astonishing white line rapidly sweeping towards them in the distance. Although the aura there wasn't overwhelming, there were definitely quite a few powerful individuals among them.

However, this time the main force wasn't him, the one who only talked. He only glanced at them briefly before looking away, turning his attention back to Xiaobai and Bai Xiuxiu.

"Aren't you leaving yet? Or do you want to stay and witness this event?" Xiao Bai didn't speak, but Bai Xiuxiu asked curiously, "Hey, human, who are you? Why are they all so powerful and listen to you? It seems your cultivation level isn't that high."

"My position in the Spirit Hall is similar to that of a High Priest who has initiated the Eighth Trial but hasn't yet fully matured," Yan replied casually after a moment's thought. "I am the first in line to succeed him in the Spirit Hall, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, I will become the Pope of the Spirit Hall, leading the entire Spirit Hall. My position is roughly similar to that of a High Priest." Upon hearing this, Bai Xiuxiu's round, shark-like face widened in surprise, but before she could ask any further questions, the waterline on the horizon rapidly approached, and the powerful figures from Seagod Island arrived.

Chapter 254 The Seven Sacred Pillars and the Ten Elders

Outside Poseidon Island, the battlefield was stained red with blood. One after another, demonic tiger whales floated on the surface of the sea. On the corpse of each demonic tiger whale, a figure sat cross-legged. There were about three hundred soul masters refining soul rings at the same time. The scene was indeed extremely amazing.

Bibi Dong sat atop the mangled body of the Demon Orca King. The once robust body of the Demon Orca King beneath her was now emaciated, and wisps of blood-red soul power were gathering, forming a soul ring that would make countless people on the continent extremely envious.

The moment the crimson halo completely solidified, Bibi Dong immediately sat cross-legged, closed her eyes, and activated her soul power. Dark red light surged, and the crimson soul ring entered her body almost instantly.

A surge of domineering energy erupted from her body, rippling the surrounding waters. This wasn't the first time Bibi Dong had absorbed a 100,000-year soul ring. When she reached level 90 in cultivating her first martial soul, she successfully activated the Rakshasa God Trial and, following the guidance, hunted down a 100,000-year Death Spider King, which was the perfect 100,000-year soul beast for her.

When she absorbed the 100,000-year-old Death Spider King's soul ring, she had experienced that extreme pain before, so she was prepared. Therefore, she had experience this time and easily withstood the initial test.

The terrifying energy of the 100,000-year-old spirit ring, carrying an extremely domineering aura, rushed directly into her body. The power burst out in that instant, and even Bibi Dong, who had released her Martial Soul True Body early on, felt the pressure. Fortunately, she withstood it without any damage.

The Demon Orca King was first ambushed and severely injured by Bibi Dong, and then its attempt to self-destruct was forcibly thwarted. It watched helplessly as its race was wiped out, and finally, its energy was absorbed, and it died completely.

It's easy to imagine how much it hated Bibi Dong, so this soul ring was full of resentment.

This hatred will inevitably increase the difficulty of refining the spirit ring. However, to be fair, if Tang San, who was at the Soul Douluo stage, could refine this spirit ring, how could Bibi Dong, who is stronger than him, not be able to do it?

The Demon Orca King's power was quite domineering, but Bibi Dong's original power was even more evil and domineering. The pale green light flowed, and the energy of the Demon Orca King's soul ring was suppressed and restrained, just like fire meeting water or ice meeting charcoal.

The violent energy bowed down and was quickly refined before the even more powerful evil aura, and the enormous soul ring energy was gradually transformed into Bibi Dong's own.

Bibi Dong, whose soul power cultivation reached level 96 and was above Super Douluo, was even stronger than the Demonic Tiger Whale King in terms of sheer size. This greatly reduced the difficulty of absorbing and refining its energy, and made it more efficient. Naturally, she didn't need to spend time grinding it down; instead, she directly absorbed it into her body, roughly dispersed it, and quickly refined it.

The bloodstains on the ocean battlefield were gradually diluted by the seawater, and the powerful figures from Seagod Island had arrived, but were blocked by the powerful figures that Yan had prepared in advance. The conflict between the two sides was locked in front and did not affect the many soul masters who were absorbing and refining soul rings at all.

On the bodies of the demonic orca, numerous Soul Masters from the Spirit Hall completed the refining process one after another, with purple and black Soul Rings continuously rising.

As top-tier sea spirit beasts, the Demonic Orca Clan members, once they reach adulthood, all possess at least a thousand years of cultivation, and many even reach ten thousand years.

Of course, there were some minors as well, but their numbers were not too large. The soul power of these demonic orcas was absorbed and refined into soul rings by soul masters who had reached their limits at various stages. The Spirit Hall made a fortune this time.

As the ghastly green light rapidly devoured the crimson light, the dark red light finally subsided. As Bibi Dong opened her eyes, the withered body of the demonic orca king beneath her suddenly exploded, its tail flesh flying everywhere, and a crimson light surging forth.

A dark red soul bone burst forth from the tail of the Demon Orca King and slowly floated to Bibi Dong's Tang San.

This is the most precious soul bone that countless people on the Douluo Continent yearn for; it is a 100,000-year-old soul bone that can only be produced by a 100,000-year-old soul beast.

This 100,000-year-old soul bone is shaped like a leg bone. Upon closer inspection, it can be seen that it is a left leg bone. Although it is a left leg bone with relatively low value among the six main soul bones, this soul bone is exactly what Bibi Dong lacks.

The dark red, 100,000-year-old demon's left leg bone was completely transparent, filled with what looked like a piece of blood-red amber, with dark red liquid seemingly flowing inside.

It doesn't emit light outwards, but rather seems to devour all the light around it. The shape from the leg bone to the ankle doesn't resemble a human foot; it looks more like the tail of an orca.

Bibi Dong looked towards the outer edge of Seagod Island where the intense commotion was coming from, then quickly calmed her mind and a flash of green light appeared in her palm, covering the dark red soul bone. The super soul bone, which seemed to be able to devour all the light around it, dimmed considerably in an instant.

The resentment of the demonic orca king within the soul bone trembled and struggled desperately, seemingly trying to break free of its restraints. Unfortunately, Bibi Dong had little intention of continuing to entangle with it, and quickly activated her own power to continuously refine and disperse the remnant soul power within the soul bone.

A series of clanging sounds emanated from Bibi Dong's body as eight spirit rings—seven black and one red—simultaneously appeared, with the 100,000-year-old red spirit ring brought by the Demonic Tiger Whale King being the last one.

The 100,000-year soul ring, one of the most precious treasures in the soul master world, unleashed a terrifying power from Bibi Dong as she fully released her soul power waves, while the 100,000-year demonic left leg bone struggled uselessly.

The next moment, Bibi Dong's left leg shot out like lightning, heading straight for the demon's left leg bone. A layer of illusory light and shadow flickered around Bibi Dong's body, and the blood-red light of her newly acquired eighth soul ring bloomed, the light condensing on her left leg. In just a flash, her left leg was retracted, and the demon's left leg bone floating in the air had disappeared.

"Boom!" A massive crimson flame soared into the sky, and Bibi Dong's body erupted with an astonishing aura that shot straight into the heavens. The seawater beneath her body rippled violently, turning into circles of waves that spread outwards.

Strangely enough, wherever the ripples reached, the originally turbulent waves temporarily calmed down, just like a calm lake.

After refining a 100,000-year-old soul ring and soul bone, her strength reached a new level. The boost brought by the soul ring and soul bone of a top-tier soul beast was indescribable, especially after breaking through level 96, each breakthrough was a huge improvement.

A plume of vital energy shot straight into the sky, and Bibi Dong's body continuously expelled turbid energy. In the process, her blood, soul power, and spiritual power were also integrated into one.

On the azure sea, while a group of powerful members of the Spirit Hall were refining soul bones in the sea area where the demonic tiger whales had perished, the true main force of the Spirit Hall's plan was intercepting the powerful members of Seagod Island who came to demand answers outside the inner sea of ​​Seagod Island.

"Boom..." On the Dragon Abyss Ship, Yan looked towards the direction of Sea God Island. The distant rumbling sound entered his ears, and the huge roar was like rolling thunder in the sky, each sound stronger than the last, deafening.

The once calm seawater suddenly became turbulent, and the white line in the distance took on a complete shape. The raging waves, almost without a limit, swept in, with the highest waves reaching hundreds of meters high, and the roar came from this.

The sheer power of nature left everyone present speechless with awe, feeling incredibly small compared to the vast ocean.

"Elders, our teacher needs some more time. Please help us break through this earth-shattering storm." Yan Yi, aboard the Dragon Abyss Boat, remained fearless and calmly gave the order. As he spoke, Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo on the Dragon Abyss Boat quickly took off, and eight figures slowly descended from the white clouds above.

These ten figures stood suspended in mid-air, each dressed in a long, bright red robe. Several of them had white hair, clearly indicating that they were quite old, as their faces were obscured by a faint light.

They simultaneously released their martial spirits, and the various colors of light from their ninety spirit rings painted the sky with unparalleled splendor.

Ten Title Douluo—the Spirit Hall actually mobilized ten titled-level combatants for this plan, which is absolutely unparalleled in the world today.

The first-ever joint action of the ten elders of the Spirit Hall—Ghost, Chrysanthemum, Holy Dragon, Demon Bear, Ghost Leopard…—is bound to be an earth-shattering spectacle.

The two guardian elders, Gui Mei and Yue Guan, were the first to make their move. Golden and silver halos bloomed in the sky and quickly fell to the center of the white line tide, freezing it in place in an instant.

The polar stillness domain froze the earth-shattering tide, and the remaining eight titled Douluo simultaneously unleashed their strongest area-of-effect skills. Hundreds of meters of waves were split and shattered, and as the golden and silver light receded, the seawater frozen in mid-air dissipated, leaving ripples on the azure sea surface.

Beside the Dragon Abyss Boat, the Demon Soul Great White Shark King Xiao Bai and her daughter Bai Xiuxiu had been observing the situation in the distance. The appearance of the Ten Title Douluos surprised them greatly, as even Seagod Island did not have so many Title Douluos.

"Ten, no, thirteen Title Douluos. I never imagined you were valued so much, with Title Douluos protecting you at all times." But what shocked them even more was yet to come. After the white tide dissipated, faint figures reappeared on the Seagod Island, and two new protectors appeared beside Yan.

Although these two were still a bit unsteady on their feet, they were indeed genuine Title Douluos. If you add Bibi Dong over there, that makes thirteen Title Douluos, almost twice the number of Title Douluos on Seagod Island.

Snake Spear Douluo She Long and Porcupine Douluo Ci Xue, these two newly promoted Spirit Hall elders, have taken over the positions of Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo to serve as Yan's personal bodyguards.

For the Spirit Hall, the plan is important, but the still-developing Holy Son Yan is even more crucial.

On the Dragon Abyss Ship, Yan calmly directed the various Soul Masters to form an array in preparation for the battle. Gazing at the rising tide once more, a hint of caution appeared in his eyes.

"Have they arrived, the Seven Sacred Pillars of Seagod Island?" The distant tide rose again, but this time it was different from before. One by one, Sea Soul Masters appeared among them. Led by seven powerful figures, a hazy blue halo, accompanied by earth-shattering waves, arrived in front of the group of powerful figures from the Spirit Hall.

The ten red-robed elders of the Spirit Hall slowly descended, while seven powerful figures dressed in black robes appeared in the opposite sea tide.

The appearance of these seven figures immediately made the Spirit Hall members tense, and Yan's gaze swept over them. What attracted him the most was not the strongest Sea Dragon, but a girl among the seven, the Sea Maiden Douluo.

The Sea Maiden Douluo has a huge fish tail with a beautiful curve that extends all the way to her waist. She wears a small black top that doesn't even cover her navel, revealing her snow-white, slender waist.

She had a pair of large, sky-blue eyes, more like the sky than the ocean. Her stunning beauty was breathtaking. Her fishtail slapped the water's surface, and a faint smile always lingered at the corners of her mouth, as if she were quite content.

She seemed to sense Yan's gaze, nodded and smiled, her eyes gleaming with blue light, and her gaze towards Yan subtly changed.

Chapter 255 The Sea Witch's Mind-Reading Ability

On the rippling blue sea, seventeen figures were facing off: the ten elders of the Spirit Hall and the seven sacred pillars of Seagod Island. These were all genuine Title Douluo of the present era, and it would be quite difficult to see even one of them on ordinary days. However, at this moment, nearly twenty of them had appeared.

The Seven Sacred Pillars of Seagod Island refer to the seven guardians of the island, second only to the High Priest Poseidon. Their duty is to assess the Soul Masters of Seagod Island during peacetime, and they are also the key combat force of Seagod Island, serving as the backbone of its protection.

If the High Priestess Poseidon is the commander-in-chief, then the Seven Pillars are the seven generals of Poseidon Island.

The Seven Sacred Pillars consist of seven titled Douluo: Sea Dragon, Sea Spear, Sea Witch, Sea Illusion, Sea Star, Sea Ghost, and Seahorse.

The cultivation levels of the seven guardian pillars are mostly average. The strongest, the Sea Dragon Douluo, is only level 95. However, being in the ocean, they are skilled in naval warfare, which greatly enhances their strength. Even if the ten elders of the Spirit Hall join forces, they cannot gain any advantage against these seven guardian pillars.
