Douluo Continent: Long Live the Spirit Hall

Sofia, you stupid woman, do I really have to list all the stupid things you've done? You and Gabriel, that shameful couple, one so arrogant and narrow-minded, the other so utterly depraved, are truly the most vile pair in the world..."

"Kill him!!!"

Upon hearing Yan's words, Sophia's face changed drastically, and she screamed. From Yan's words, she deduced something, something that terrified her.

Yan knew that she was hiding a very deep secret, a secret that involved the origins of her two daughters, the change of the Mad God, and Lucifer's rebellion. Once it was made public, it would definitely be a blow to her dignity as the God-King.

She wasn't sure what the consequences would be if these things were exposed, so she had been carefully hiding the truth all these years, and even Gabriel was unaware of those things.

She didn't know how Yan knew those things, but her only reaction now was to prevent the secret from being exposed and she couldn't let this guy continue talking nonsense.

"You shouldn't have angered the God-King."

Raphael, at Sophia's command, immediately took action. He and Michael stirred the void together, coordinating with the Sunburst Angel Legion to set up a tight barrier in an attempt to contain Yan's movements. He considered Yan's actions, which provoked Sophia, to be irrational.

Yan snorted coldly and said, "I have nothing to say to this crazy woman. She can just wait for me to overturn the heavens and bring her down to the dust!"

"I think you've gone mad."

Michael and Raphael were speechless at Yan's words. In their view, this was absolutely impossible. How could the first child of the Father God, the God-King Sophia, be cast down to the dust?

"Get out of the way."

Sophia's voice rang out from behind. Seeing that Michael and Raphael were unable to defeat Yan, she finally took action herself. Her twelve wings flapped, the divine emblem between her brows shone brightly, and an incomparably powerful aura emanated from her body.

"The God-King himself is taking action! I'm so scared!"

Yan's voice still carried a mocking tone, and this strange tone fueled Sophia's anger even more. A golden six-pointed star gradually appeared beneath her feet, and a powerful divine aura locked onto Yan.

Boom!!!

Just as Sophia was about to lock onto Yan's phantom, a loud bang came from the depths of the God King's Palace. When the many gods turned around to look, they were all stunned. The God King's Palace, which represented the God King's majesty, had collapsed.

"Ah...you two bastards, just you wait..."

A voice filled with anger and fear came from the direction of the ruins of the Temple of the Gods. A six-winged angel was covered in blood, and specks of golden blood kept splashing in the sky.

Chapter 686 The Cave of Soul Devouring

Gabriel!

Sophia, who was originally preparing to take down Yan with lightning speed, felt a pang of anxiety when she saw Gabriel's blood splattered across the sky. She then turned sharply and rushed towards the direction of the God King's Palace, shouting, "Save him!"

At this moment, she no longer cared about dealing with Yan; her only thought was to quickly return to the God King's Palace to rescue Gabriel, who had been ambushed again. As long as Gabriel was safe, everything would be fine.

"You did this!"

Raphael and Michael did not make any rash moves, but kept their eyes fixed on Yan, Raphael's charming face filled with gloom.

He had some goodwill towards Yan and felt that the Heavenly Realm had wronged Yan because of Zi Yan, but Yan had once again hurt his brother Gabriel, which was absolutely unforgivable.

Yan sneered, "Philyunna committed suicide, Theomandis was framed and died, Lucifer defected, and Lei Xiang almost died at the hands of that bastard. Is it too much for Lei Xiang to take Gabriel's life?"

"The Mad God, the successor. So that's how it is. You saved him."

Raphael frowned slightly. They knew about how Gabriel had almost killed the successor of the Mad God when he descended to the mortal realm. "The God-King has already dealt with Gabriel, and Gabriel almost died during his descent to the mortal realm."

Yan sneered, "He deserved it. He suffered such a terrible fate in the human world. Lucifer should have just cut off his head back then, and there wouldn't have been so much trouble."

"You bastard, who do you think you are? You dare to talk about Gabriel?"

Unlike Raphael, Michael was not calm. After hearing Yan's words, he could no longer hold back and punched a certain void. A large number of Yan's phantoms instantly dissipated, but no flesh or blood flew out of the sky. Only specks of light disappeared in the void.

“Michael, you will pay the price for this punch. I said I would make the heavens restless, and I will keep my word.”

Yan's figure appeared again from the direction of the Divine King's Palace, accompanied by the emergence of a huge spacetime vortex, and the three figures disappeared into the celestial realm.

"God King".

Michael and Raphael exchanged bewildered glances. Neither of them had expected this outcome. Not long after, Sophia reappeared, carrying the wounded and weak Gabriel in her arms. "Send out the order to issue arrest warrants for Brahma Dragon, Mad God, and that bastard."

Sofia roared through gritted teeth. The fact that Gabriel had almost died again in her arms fueled her anger. She never imagined that the two boys she had looked down on would become so threatening. They had almost killed her Gabriel, which was completely unforgivable.

"Yes."

Michael and Raphael were also furious when they saw Gabriel's condition. They were both children created by the Father God and had a deep bond with each other. Gabriel was almost killed again, which undoubtedly ignited their anger.

The unusual deployment of the Sunburst Angel Legion threw the entire Sky City into chaos. Countless four-winged and two-winged angels searched the celestial realm, but before they could search too many places, an internal conflict broke out in the celestial realm.

……

"Hahaha, that's great, that's so satisfying!"

At the edge where the Heavenly Realm and the Underworld meet, the Brahma Heavenly Dragon transformed into its true form, carrying Yan and Lei Xiang, who had just wreaked havoc in Sky City, and quickly retreated. "You didn't see the look in Sophia's eyes just now. She wanted to kill us but couldn't. That old hag is infuriating, hahaha..."

Yan had regained his composure and was directing the Brahma Dragon to retreat quickly. "Brahma, concentrate. If you want to laugh happily, you have to get back to the Underworld first."

"I know."

Fan Ri Tianlong nodded, then turned his head to Yan and said, "Yan, you really have a way with things. If it weren't for Gabriel waking up quickly, we would have killed him right then and there. But even if we hadn't killed him, he would have been seriously injured and would have taken much longer to recover."

Lei Xiang sighed on the back of the Brahma Dragon, "It's a pity that we couldn't get rid of this scourge and avenge Brother Theomandis this time."

"If we fail this time, we'll just kill him next time."

Yan, however, tried to persuade him from the side.

He then took out a jet-black sword and said, "Lei Xiang, I'm preparing to enter the Soul Devouring Cave for cultivation, and I'll need the Ink Nether. I hope you can part with this sword and give it to me."

Yan's words startled Lei Xiang. He looked at the Mo Ming Divine Sword in Yan's hand with a reluctant gaze. This sword had once been Lucifer's sword, and later came into his hands. It had been used in battle for many years and was quite powerful. If he had had one when he was dealing with Gabriel, he might have been able to completely eliminate that scourge.

Unfortunately, the opportunity was missed. Now that Yan mentioned exchanging the sword, Lei Xiang hesitated. He was somewhat reluctant, but in the end he nodded and said, "Yan, since you need to use Mo Ming, I am naturally willing to part with it. After all, you saved my life."

Lei Xiang could not forget Yan's life-saving grace, and he had nothing to say about Yan needing this precious sword; he would simply support him.

"Lei Xiang, thank you very much."

Yan thanked Lei Xiang and then continued, "Lei Xiang, after we return to the Underworld, the King of the Underworld should have a good talk with you. You don't need to feel guilty."

With such a huge incident in Heaven, Gabriel almost lost his life, and Sophia might even chase him to the Underworld. Hades probably won't give her any face.

However, the competition between Heaven and the Underworld is approaching, and Heaven is preparing to use Zi Yan, while you are the best choice for the King of the Underworld. Therefore, the King of the Underworld may be angry about this matter, but in the end, it will most likely come to nothing. However, it's best for you both to keep a low profile for the time being.”

"I understand."

After listening to Yan's analysis, Lei Xiang nodded. The three of them talked for a while longer before breaking through the Heavenly Realm's defensive barrier and returning to the Underworld's central city, Hades City.

Brahma Dragon gazed at the Underworld City from afar, sighing, "We just finished demolishing the God King's Palace, and now this Underworld City just doesn't look right at all!"

Lucifer's voice suddenly rang out, "Brahma, you'd better control your temper. Although Lord Hades has a good temper, he is not a soft-hearted person. If you offend him, you'll really have a hard time."

"Brother Lucifer, what brings you here?"

Lei Xiang was overjoyed to hear Lucifer's voice. This was his beloved friend and family member, and he had to talk to him about how Lucifer had almost killed Gabriel.

Lucifer was unusually angry with Gabriel, and still harbored resentment towards his former 'brothers'. "Hahaha, that Gabriel guy is running around like a stray dog, he deserves it."

However, Lei Xiang, while this was satisfying, you also need to be careful about your safety. Getting yourself into trouble just to deal with Gabriel is not a good thing. Also, Lord Hades is very angry about your unauthorized actions this time..."

Lucifer brought a lot of mixed news, but the information about Hades was accurate. He and Yan guessed correctly that Hades was just bluffing and his main goal was to win them over.

……

Outside the forbidden area of ​​the Underworld, the Cave of Soul Devouring, Yan arrived alone. No one saw him off this time; he had already said goodbye to everyone before coming, and Mo Yue had even been thoroughly tormented by him for several days before he finally said goodbye.

This time, he entered with a resolute mindset. It was a high-stakes gamble. If he bet correctly, Yan could rise to the God-King realm in a short time, possessing cultivation no less than Hades, the King of the Underworld, and Sophia, the God-King. Then he would have the capital to fulfill his previous promise.

Yan had made meticulous arrangements and preparations for today, collecting and analyzing countless energies from the Soul Devouring Cave multiple times in advance, and obtaining several key items. He was confident that he would succeed.

Yan made up his mind and then took out three jade bottles. Two of them emitted a strong red light, while the other glowed with a yellow light.

These are respectively the essence of Brahma Dragon's heart and blood, the primordial divine power of the Heavenly Fire God and the Earth God. With their help, Yan's strength can be further enhanced, and it should not be a problem for him to rival a first-level god in a short period of time.

As Yan thought so, after the three jade bottles were opened, three beams of light shot out instantly and then merged into Yan's body at the same time.

"Boom!"

Intense flames erupted from Yan's body.

His aura suddenly surged to the level of a first-level deity, but this aura was extremely unstable, as if he might fall from his current level at any moment.

After his aura changed, Yan rushed straight into the Soul Devouring Cave without much hesitation. A moment later, his figure disappeared into the silent land.

……

Yan's vision returned, but he saw no light; all around him was darkness. However, pure and immense energy swirled around him, giving him an urge to refine it all.

Yan understood that this was one of the methods of the Soul Devouring Cave. These energies did not seem to have any malicious intent, allowing the divine power to continuously absorb them. While they helped Yan improve his strength, they also made Yan lower his guard. Many creatures that strayed into this place died because they lost their guard.

While Yan continuously absorbed and refined the energy, he remained vigilant. He continued to refine the energy, but nothing changed around him. It was still pitch black with no obvious way out, so dark that one could not see their own hand in front of their face, giving people an extremely terrifying sense of oppression.

Yan was not frightened by this strange situation. Instead, he chose to sit cross-legged and refine the energy, and the efficiency of this refining was even faster.

Yan continuously absorbed the energy in the air. The energy in this Soul Devouring Cave was not only enormous but also nearly inexhaustible. As Yan continued to absorb and refine the energy, the divine power within his body gradually increased.

Yan paid no attention to these situations and continued to refine energy to improve his cultivation. His aura became more and more stable, and his cultivation level had basically reached the threshold of a first-level god. After refining energy for so many days, his current cultivation level was basically no threat in the palace.

"Hmm? This is what they call an illusion. It looks like it's easy to deal with."

Suddenly, a ball of light and shadow appeared in front of Yan, and there were several familiar figures inside. The moment Yan saw them, he judged that it was fake, and then simply and decisively logged off to deal with his business.

Chapter 687 A Leap to God King

Inside the Soul Devouring Cave, a large amount of energy continuously poured into Yan's body, making his aura stronger and stronger, and his cultivation level also continued to increase.

When he regained consciousness, everything around him had changed. The deep darkness had been replaced by light, and a bright smiling face appeared before him.

"Master, you succeeded! You've finally escaped the Soul Devouring Cave! Mo Yue missed you so much."

Mo Yue rushed into Yan's arms with a sob in her voice. Her beautiful face was full of the joy of reunion. With a beautiful woman in his arms and a sweet fragrance wafting in his nose, Yan's body seemed to have a spontaneous reaction.

"Hehehe, Master, you miss Yue'er, don't you..."

Mo Yue giggled in Yan's arms, and took the initiative to undress, soon lying naked on top of him.

"Owner."

She took Yan's hand and placed it on her warm face, gently calling out to her. The elastic and smooth skin, as tender as warm jade, was clearly felt through the touch. Yan seemed to be intoxicated by it as well, silently cooperating with Yan's actions.

Mo Yue said dreamily, "Master, I love you so much! Come on, let's not keep our older sisters waiting too long."

As she spoke, Mo Yue stretched out her hands, her soft, snake-like arms wrapping around Yan's neck, and her warm, sweet lips pressed against his...

"You are indeed very well-behaved. Yue'er is not usually this proactive. If I had a choice, I might spare your life."
