Douluo Continent: Long Live the Spirit Hall

Inside the Spirit Hall's underground research lab, the Time-Space Gate, under Yan's control, flickered with blue light, and the light grew increasingly dazzling. Having already experienced this many times, Yan understood that this was yet another stable spatial node that had been captured by the Time-Space Gate.

However, he still needs to carefully observe what the other world is like. It could be a small asteroid wandering in the universe, or it could be another life-bearing planet, or it could be linked to other planes like the core world of the Five Elements Continent.

"Something's not right. This world is fluctuating, getting closer to Douluo Continent? It feels like it's constantly moving, and it's incredibly powerful. It's a spatial barrier, no, it's a spacetime barrier."

Yan, who was debugging and testing, noticed something different. The light spot reflected from the Time Gate light curtain seemed to be constantly moving and getting closer to Douluo Continent, which was completely different from the previous planets or planes he had observed.

The planets Yan observed were relatively stationary relative to Douluo Star, and the same was true for the Five Elements Continent in another dimension, which maintained a certain distance from each other. However, this world was not like that.

What's even stranger is that the coordinates it reflects are not just different spatial nodes, but also contain time fluctuations. This is a difference in spacetime nodes, and this world may be in another universe, similar to the concept of a parallel universe to the Douluo universe.

This explains why Yan observed two worlds approaching each other, yet there were no unusual phenomena in the real world. This is because the two worlds exist in different universes with different spacetimes. Unless the two universes truly collide and merge, they will not affect each other.

This is similar to the Abyss Plane in later generations. It exists in the spacetime turbulence outside the Douluo Universe, wandering between the Douluo Universe and several other universes, hoping to gain an opportunity for advancement.

However, before it actively contacted and merged with the Douluo Universe, even the God Realm found it difficult to pinpoint its location and launch an attack. Later, taking advantage of the disappearance of the Douluo God Realm, it chose to invade Douluo Star, only to fall into Tang San's trap and ultimately become nourishment for the Douluo Universe.

The world Yan has discovered now may be in a similar situation, but its state is somewhat special, seemingly different from the form of the Douluo Universe. Yan pondered for a moment, and finally cautiously used the portal to make contact.

After his experience in the inner world, he improved the portal to this spacetime, making the fluctuations of the link more subtle and disguised. Even if a god-level expert were right in front of him, as long as he didn't cause any trouble, he wouldn't be discovered by the god.

……

In a distant, otherworldly universe, within the Dragon God Empire, lies the Stru Fortress. This is a wild and untamed continent, where numerous races clashed in ancient times. Now, humans, orcs, and demons have become the dominant races on this continent.

The Dragon God Empire, the strongest human power, occupies the most fertile land and cooperates with the dragons to fight against the armies of orcs and demons. Stru Fortress is the first line of defense for the Dragon God Empire against invasions by demons and orcs.

At this moment, banners fluttered outside the Struth Fortress, and a large army gathered outside the fortress. This was an allied force of demons and orcs, who were about to launch a war against the Dragon God Empire.

The demon army looked very similar to the human army, except that compared to humans, demons had fairer skin, a slightly darker aura, and mostly black hair, with nobles having purple hair. They also kept many demonic beasts as their vanguard.

The orc army was of mixed races. This empire was originally a multi-race empire, including wolves, snakes, centaurs, and so on. The most elite Behemoth Legion stood at the forefront, together with the most elite Fallen Angel Legion of the demon race, preparing to face the elite Dragon Knight Legion of the Dragon God Empire.

The Behemoth Legion, the most elite warriors of the Orcish Empire, are all over four meters tall. When these Behemoth behemoths wielding spiked clubs appear on the battlefield, even the elite heavy cavalry of the human race will face annihilation.

"Behemoth King! Behemoth King! Behemoth King!"

Amidst the shouts of countless orcs, the leader of the Behemoth Legion, the commander of the orc army, a Behemoth warrior standing over five meters tall, appeared outside Struth Fortress.

"Haha, Brother Lei, it's been a long time!"

A black mist swept across the sky from behind the demon army, accompanied by fluttering banners. Dozens of winged beings with black wings and narrow swords appeared and disappeared in the black mist.

These winged beings are somewhat similar to the legendary angels, or perhaps they could be considered angels, but compared to true angels, their power is far weaker, and they cannot be called gods at all. These winged beings are the elite force of the demon race—the Fallen Angels Warband.

Within the thick black fog, a figure appeared before the numerous fallen angels. He possessed four wings, and his aura was extremely powerful, his imposing presence no less than that of Behemoth, the marshal of the orc legion.

"Furukawa, let's not waste time. Let's go meet our old friends."

King Behemoth spoke in a deep voice. Although it was only a soft voice to him, it sounded like thunder on the battlefield. As the two top experts of the continent talked, they turned towards Nastur Fortress.

"Furukawa! Leo! Are you really going to start a war?"

A voice echoed within Strull Fortress, followed by a series of loud dragon roars and howls. Huge shadows appeared in the sky, and the sky-covering dragon shadows moved out together, even obscuring the sky outside Strull Fortress.

Amidst the resounding roars of dragons, colossal dragons appeared in the sky, each carrying a knight wielding a long polearm. Each knight possessed an extremely powerful aura, even slightly stronger than the dozens of fallen angels.

The Dragon Knight Legion is the strongest elite legion under the Dragon God Empire, and the key to the human empire's suppression of the demon and orc empires.

The entire Dragon God Empire has only a little over a hundred dragon knights, yet it requires the combined might of the Demon Fallen Angels and the Orc Behemoth Legion to barely hold them off. Now, due to the invasion of these two armies, over fifty dragon knights have gathered within the Stru Fortress.

The sight of more than fifty dragons moving together was extremely awe-inspiring. Each adult dragon had a wingspan of tens of meters, and its massive body exuded a breathtaking dragon aura.

When the dragons moved out together with the dragon knights, countless people looked up at the sky in horror. Within the two great empires of demons and orcs, apart from the two elite legions, the rest of the troops were in turmoil.

Dozens of dragon knights floated in formation in the sky. Each of the powerful members of the dragon knight legion looked down with cold expressions. The two leading forces of the two empires, the Fallen Angels Legion and the Behemoth Legion, were their targets today.

At the very forefront of the numerous dragon knight legions, a middle-aged knight sat atop the back of the most powerful dragon. He was Rivo, the commander of Stru Fortress and one of the three marshals of the Dragon God Empire.

Chapter 125: A Bountiful Harvest

"Leo! Furukawa! Since you want war, my Dragon God Empire will not be afraid! Come on!!!"

Above the Stru Fortress, Rivo, one of the three marshals of the Dragon God Empire, charged forward wielding his dragon spear, while the four-winged fallen angel Furukawa Lucifer in the opposite sky and the Behemoth King Leo on the ground also made their moves at the same time.

"Darkness descends!"

The four-winged fallen angel, Furukawa, drew a dark curtain across the sky, which continued to spread towards the Struth Fortress.

"A raging thunderbolt descends upon the world!"

Leo, the Behemoth King, leaped up from the ground and unleashed a punch that shot straight toward Rivo like a cannonball.

With two old rivals coming on strong, Dragon Knight Commander Rivo was naturally not afraid. He rode his dragon and charged out, his long-handled dragon spear radiating battle aura and tearing through the void with the dragon's extreme speed.

"Bang!!!"

The moment the three top experts from the continent clashed, a fierce light swept across the battlefield, and the resulting shockwaves and energy aftershocks plunged the entire world into darkness.

The heavens and earth lost their color, the sun and moon lost their light; it had been a long time since such a clash of powerhouses had occurred on the entire continent. As the leaders of the three armies began to clash, the orcs and demons launched their attack, while the human army, led by the dragon knight legion, launched a counterattack.

"Holy crap, what kind of world is this? It's a typical Western fantasy world. Orcs? Humans? People who ride magical beasts? There seem to be birdmen too? Fallen angels? Why are they so weak? Aren't angels supposed to be at least god-level?"

Just as the three powerful figures were fighting and stirring up the void in the sky, a corner of the battlefield in the sky became slightly blurred. However, the blur was very indistinct and was constantly moving, so it was impossible to notice unless you kept a close eye on it.

"No wonder the spacetime barrier at this node seemed so weak. It turns out the great battle disrupted space and caused ripples. With a battle of this intensity, this world must be one of those universes where the three realms are united. This should belong to the human realm, the weakest of the three realms."

On the other side of the blurred spacetime light curtain, Yan kept adjusting his position to avoid the three sides that were fighting, especially the three guys who were far away from the center of the battlefield.

The Dragon Knight Commander, Behemoth King, and the Four-Winged Fallen Angel, although they are still only in the human realm, are at least level 96 or higher peerless Douluo in the Douluo world. Such a battle between powerful beings is still a long way off.

Although most of these guys probably don't have the means to travel through time and space, Yan doesn't want to get caught up in some kind of interdimensional battle just by watching.

He carefully maneuvered the light screen away from the center of the battlefield, while simultaneously sensing the changes in the mental energy he was channeling. The positions of this world and the Douluo World were indeed constantly shifting, meaning he didn't have much time left.

Yan's gaze shifted to the area below the battlefield. On the relatively small plain, numerous armies from the three races were engaged in fierce combat, with lives being lost every moment. This presented Yan with an opportunity.

Although it might be disrespectful to act without asking, he was doing it for better research... oops, I mean out of humanitarianism, to prevent these soldiers' bodies from being trampled on the battlefield and to collect their corpses.

A blurry light and shadow appeared on the ground below the battlefield. Few people noticed that the corpses lying on the ground suddenly disappeared. After all, if three or five of the corpses suddenly disappeared from a pile of bodies, no one would notice in the chaos of the battlefield.

On one side of the aerial battlefield, a dragon knight, riding a giant dragon, relentlessly charged at a fallen angel, his dragon mount spewing dragonfire from time to time. The fallen angel, wielding a short sword, countered with occasional bursts of dark magic; the two exchanged blows, locked in a fierce and evenly matched battle.

"Got you?"

In the midst of the battle, the dragon knight suddenly gave a cold smile, seized an opening in the fallen angel's defenses, and launched a swift attack, his dragon spear shattering the short sword and piercing through the latter.

However, the fallen angel also became ruthless when it was hit. The broken sword in its hand flew out and destroyed one of the dragon knight's eyes and half of his face. The dark mist in its palm was directed at the dragon and covered it. The strong corrosive dark magic instantly severely injured the dragon.

"Roar……"

With a mournful roar, the dragon, carrying the dragon knight and the fallen angel impaled by the dragon spear, crashed to the ground, unfortunately landing in the rear corner of the human army, right in the ranks of the mages.

"Behemoth Legion charge."

The Behemoth Legion warriors on the ground saw a dragon knight land, and how could they let this opportunity pass? The warriors, who were over four meters tall, led by their five-meter-tall captain, charged forward, breaking through the battlefield's blockade and rushing towards the landed dragon knight.

The fallen dragon knights and dragons were not yet dead, and they naturally continued to retaliate with battle aura and dragon flames. Their casual strikes were enough to kill a Behemoth warrior, demonstrating their formidable strength.

However, even ants can kill an elephant if there are many of them. The constant attacks of the numerous Behemoth warriors aggravated the dragon knight's injuries, bringing him to the brink of death. This also gave the dying fallen angel, still clinging to the dragon spear, an opportunity.

"Hahahaha, let's die together! Great God of Darkness, with my soul as a sacrifice and my life as a bridge, grant me your boundless divine power to devour the enemy before me... Dark Demon Devouring Heaven..."

Seeing no hope of survival, the fallen angel resolved to die and unleashed his final dark magic attack. The dense black mist instantly engulfed everything within a radius of over a hundred meters, and countless warriors roared in despair.

The Behemoth warriors, who were charging forward, stopped in their tracks. They could sense that the dragon knights and dragons within the thick black fog were already silent, and there was no need to sacrifice the lives of their warriors.

"Good opportunity. The time is almost up. If I continue to link them, my mental energy will run out. I'll make one last quick buck and leave."

Yan, on the other side of the spacetime light screen, observed the battle and, taking advantage of the moment when the black mist invaded, launched a final spacetime interdimensional teleportation, swallowing everything within a hundred-meter radius except for dark magic.

When the terrifying dark magic was purified by the human race's holy light magic, everyone was surprised to find that only the land corrupted by the dark magic remained; everything else had vanished.

The disappearance of numerous corpses later caused quite a stir on the mainland, but during the war, none of the three parties had the mind to calm down and investigate the truth, and the matter was left unresolved.

……

"Humans and demons, warriors and mages, give them to me."

"Fallen angel, give it to me."

"Behemoth warrior, give it to me."

"Dragon knights and dragons, hehehe, they're mine too."

Inside the Spirit Hall's underground research lab, Yan was excitedly sorting through his latest finds. His greedy gaze failed to notice that two figures had appeared behind him.

Chapter 126 Farewell to the Blazing Flames

"What world have you connected with this time?"

Inside the underground research room, Yan carefully removed what appeared to be a storage ring from the fallen angel's right hand. Suddenly, a faint voice came from behind him, startling him. He turned around, ready to cause trouble, but was startled again.

Pope Bibi Dong and High Priest Qian Daoliu actually appeared behind him. When did these two become so close? They actually came together?

"Teacher, Great Master, what brings you here?"

Yan smiled awkwardly, and subconsciously put the storage ring he was holding back a little. However, he quickly realized what he had done and generously showed off some of his gains.

"The foreign aura of what appeared this time was so obvious, how could we not detect it? How did you manage to do it? There are even some Title Douluo-level beings among these corpses, right?"

Qian Daoliu's gaze fell on Yan's back: the Fallen Angel, the Dragon, and the Dragon Knight. Although these three were dead, their powerful aura made him glance at them a few more times. In particular, the Fallen Angel seemed to have a slight connection with the martial soul of his clan.

Yan scratched his head and smiled, then whispered, "Well, if I told you I found all of these, would you believe me?"

Bibi Dong glared at him. "Xin, you brat, you can only talk the talk. You don't have the ability to wipe out all these powerful people. But you're too bold. What kind of powerful people are these? You dare to take advantage of this? Aren't you afraid of being hunted down across realms?"

"Who are they looking down on?"

Yan muttered something under his breath, then noticed Bibi Dong's gaze turn back to him. He quickly looked up and explained, "It just so happens to connect to a battlefield where over a hundred Title Douluo are fighting to the death. Who would notice such a trivial matter?"

"And I wasn't greedy. I took the items and closed the door. Now that world is so far away from our plane, even I can't open it again. They missed the easiest opportunity to capture the coordinates, so they can forget about coming back."

Yan would have been better off not explaining, because once he did, his head started to ache. The Pope fed him a chestnut. Grand Elder Qian Daoliu seemed not to notice, his eyes darting around. He coughed and squatted down to observe the fallen angel who had been dead for a long time.

"The High Priest, this clan should also be a descendant of a certain angel deity, and should be different from that great one in the divine realm."

Yan also squatted down and talked to Qian Daoliu, and handed over the ring he had just taken off. It was better to leave the things of the fallen angel to Qian Daoliu, a professional angel.

Bibi Dong, however, was more interested in the dragon. "This dragon seems to be different from the various dragon races in legends, but its power and bloodline should be at the level of a true dragon."

"That's normal. Dragons exist in many worlds. Last time, cough cough, after all, the dragons were so powerful back then."

Yan stood up and blurted out that he almost revealed the story of the Five Elements Continent. Compared to the Douluo Continent, where the dragon race had dwindled, the Five Elements Continent still had many dragons. They belonged to the same universe, and it was unknown whether the dragons of these two planes were related.
