The Glory of the Sun and Moon in the Peerless Tang Sect

Although Long Xiaoyao didn't possess Xu Zihuang's ability to foresee the future, having reached the Limit Douluo realm, he had already become one with the entire world. If any power in this world appeared that could threaten him, even without any warning, he could trace it back to its source.

At this moment, the source of the crisis that Long Xiaoyao sensed was Xu Zihuang.

He was certain that Yu Tianhuang before him indeed possessed the ability to severely injure them. And given Ye Xishui's current state, she might even perish because of it.

"The fact that your Golden-level Body Martial Soul's second awakening has allowed your spiritual power to reach such a level is truly remarkable. No wonder Mu En and Poison Undying of the Body Sect value you so highly. The Body Martial Soul is indeed a divine blessing, full of endless mysteries." Long Xiaoyao, his black robes fluttering in the wind, stood with his hands behind his back and sighed softly.

"I have to admit that even back then, we were far inferior to you in terms of talent. So it seems that you must have noticed my presence when you participated in the competition in Mingdu."

Under the reflection of Jin Yang's eyes, the purple-gold Thor's Spear in Xu Zihuang's hand was enveloped in a layer of brilliant golden light. The light flowed from the Thor's Spear to his entire body, and then a detached voice rang out.

"I think you were probably entrusted by Elder Mu to secretly protect my safety back then."

"But with your talent and ability, you no longer need my protection. To achieve this at less than twenty years old has already made history in the world of Soul Masters. The one from Shrek Academy who ascended to the God Realm as the Sea God ten thousand years ago would probably pale in comparison to you at the same age. To be honest, I really envy Mu En for having such an outstanding successor in his later years. I can't see through your future, but I have a feeling that you will never be bound by this world like we are." Long Xiaoyao suddenly smiled, a genuine smile that contained relief and appreciation.

“I know you are right, and I don’t need to explain anything. I am willing to bear all the consequences.”

"I hope you can put pressure on yourself during these three years and maximize your potential. I also want to thank you for still having some respect for me and for being willing to give me this dignified ending."

Xu Zihuang's gaze sharpened slightly, just as Long Xiaoyao had said.

The only person he had a blood feud with was Ye Xishui. Although Long Xiaoyao had been by Ye Xishui's side all these years, he had never done anything immoral.

While Long Xiaoyao certainly made mistakes, he wasn't as utterly wicked as Ye Xishui. Whether out of consideration for the relationship between Elder Mu and Long Xiaoyao, or for the past favor of Long Xiaoyao's secret protection, he didn't want to make things too drastic.

Of course, Xu Zihuang would not compromise on matters concerning Ye Xishui and the Holy Spirit Cult. This was his bottom line.

Before Long Xiaoyao could even agree to the bet, Ye Xishui, enveloped in a dense crimson light, screamed, "Long Xiaoyao, if you agree to this, you'll never see me again!"

"What kind of bullshit three-year agreement is this? Why should I abide by this agreement?!" Ye Xishui seemed to have been touched on her only sore spot, and she went completely mad.

"So what if my Gold-level Martial Soul has awakened a second time? Even that old poison master, Poison Undying, avoids me like the plague. Hahahaha! You think you can seriously injure me?! Die!"

Behind Ye Xishui, the Blood Soul Demon Puppet's luminous shadow held the Death Tower ablaze with light, accompanied by the mournful cries of countless vengeful spirits. A ghastly white beam of light suddenly descended from the sky, standing out starkly against this golden world.

The complete version of the Death Ray not only requires a large amount of vengeful spirits but also a long charging time. The Death Ray that was previously fired at Shattered Star Douluo and his group was prepared in advance. This was to prevent the Star Luo Empire from resorting to desperate measures and launching an attack on the Ming Dou Mountains at all costs.

The only miscalculation Ye Xishui made was the unexpected appearance of Xu Zihuang. That beam of deathly light not only failed to annihilate the Star Luo Empire's titled Douluos, but also injured her herself.

At this moment, Ye Xishui activated the energy of her martial soul's origin, forcibly completing the power accumulation process in an instant. Having learned her lesson from the previous incident, she also deliberately sealed off the space around Xu Zihuang.

Although Yu Tianhuang's control over spatial power surpasses hers, she is, after all, a Limit Douluo-level powerhouse with dual soul cores. With proper precautions, she could prevent Yu Tianhuang from successfully manipulating spatial power to guide the Light of Death.

Long Xiaoyao seemed to have a premonition of something bad, and his expression changed drastically.

"Stop, Xishui!"

This time, Xu Zihuang did not use the Golden Eye Martial Soul's ability to guide the Light of Death. Even the Golden Eye behind him, which resembled a dazzling golden sun, suddenly disappeared.

But in that instant, time and space completely froze. The death beam, powerful enough to shatter space itself, was imprisoned in mid-air. All surrounding space was compressing at an alarming rate. The sky, the earth, and everything within that space turned a monotonous, brilliant gold. This included Xu Zihuang, Ye Guyi, Long Xiaoyao, and Ye Xishui.

This eerie scene is like a picture passed down from ancient times, full of the texture of endless passage of time.

“Time, space, confinement, imprisonment.” Four strange notes suddenly rang out from Xu Zihuang’s mouth. In this golden world, he was the only one still able to move.

The ultimate secret of the second awakening of the Golden Eye's Golden-level Martial Soul!

This is where Xu Zihuang's confidence comes from.

Unlike the Light of Time and Space of the Evil Eye Tyrant, which only temporarily freezes time and directly attacks the opponent's spiritual essence, the Time and Space Imprisonment is a power that transcends this world.

Xu Zihuang stepped across the void and arrived in front of Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao.

"Pfft—" In the instant the purple-gold lightning flashed past, he had already wielded the Thunder God Spear and pierced through Ye Xishui's chest, then smiled sneer.

"The grudges between us will be settled sooner or later, and today marks the beginning of my revenge. In the near future, I will repay you a thousandfold, ten thousandfold."

All of this happened in the blink of an eye, and to the Star Shattering Douluo and the others who had reluctantly approached, it was an instantaneous event.

As they spoke, Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi vanished silently in the light and shadow of their two golden eyes, leaving only his cold voice lingering in the ears of Long Xiaoyao and Ye Xishui.

"Dragon Emperor Douluo, just pretend I never said that three-year agreement. With that old beast's cultivation, he won't die so easily. You can choose how to act next. If you want to seek revenge on me for her sake, then so be it. People like her don't deserve to die. When I come knocking on your door again, I will settle things once and for all."

Once he regained his mobility, Long Xiaoyao immediately embraced Ye Xishui and, trembling violently, stopped the bleeding for her.

"Xishui!"

A bloody hole was pierced through the center of Ye Xishui's chest by the Thor's Spear, which then transformed into a raging torrent of lightning that swept across her entire body. Lightning is the bane of all evil spirits, let alone Xu Zihuang's ultimate lightning attribute.

Ye Xishui's aura became extremely weak, and her blood-red eyes were filled with shock and anger.

She never imagined that she, a Limit Douluo, would be severely injured by a mere Soul Saint.

The only thing that comforted her was that Long Xiaoyao's care and love for her never faded with time.

Ye Xishui subconsciously reached out her right hand and placed it on Long Xiaoyao's chest.

"Free and easy..."

"Don't say anything more, I'll take you to heal your wounds right now." Long Xiaoyao's face was flushed, no longer as calm as before. In his mind, nothing was more important than Ye Xishui.

At this moment, he could no longer care about anything else and disappeared with Ye Xishui.

The space returned to calm once more, leaving only the Shattered Star Douluo and the others looking at each other in disbelief and utter shock.

He withstood two Limit Douluos without losing an inch in terms of momentum, and even managed to severely injure the Death God Douluo. Yu Tianhuang had accomplished something they wouldn't even dare to dream of.

Yu Tianhuang's indomitable spirit reminded Shattered Star Douluo of his past.

When he awakened his martial soul, he was blessed with innate full soul power, and his special spatial attribute martial soul, Shattered Star Light, was also exceptionally powerful. From childhood to adolescence and then to youth, for a long time, he was a genius admired by countless peers.

He was a prodigy at a young age.

Deeply moved, Shattered Star Douluo sighed in his heart.

As a child, I thought I could pluck the stars from the sky, but when I looked up, I couldn't see any young men

Once upon a time, he confidently set his sights on reaching the pinnacle of Soul Masterhood, but reality dealt him blow after blow. That youthful ambition he once possessed had long since vanished.

At this moment, the Shattered Star Douluo's state of mind was sublimated, and a vast purple sea of ​​stars was uncontrollably reflected behind him.

In the blink of an eye, his soul power, which had been stagnant for nearly ten years, broke through the bottleneck and reached level ninety-six.

The strange occurrence behind Shattered Star Douluo brought the other Title Douluos of the Star Luo Empire back to their senses, and they all focused their attention on Shattered Star Douluo.

"Shattered Star Douluo, you've broken through?"

Shattered Star Douluo himself did not show much joy, and waved to the crowd with a solemn expression.

"Although Death God Douluo and Dragon Emperor Douluo have left, the situation is still far from optimistic. Let's return to the military camp first to report this news to His Excellency the Duke, as well as the matter of the giant hammer..."

Upon hearing this, the titled Douluos of the Star Luo Empire all felt a slight unease. Among these titled Douluos were many friends of Giant Hammer Douluo. Even if they weren't particularly close, as comrades-in-arms, the loss of Giant Hammer Douluo had left them feeling somewhat depressed.

War is undoubtedly cruel. So cruel that even titled Douluo like them are not sure if they will survive when the war ends.

Meanwhile, Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi had already crossed the void and landed on the open ground in front of the Sea God Pavilion on Sea God Island of Shrek Academy.

Xu Zihuang was completely exhausted. Even using the ultimate ability of his Golden Eye's second awakening of his Golden-level Martial Soul—the Space-Time Imprisonment—to trap two Limit Douluos was extremely difficult for him.

This was partly why he failed to pierce Ye Xishui's heart with Thor's Spear. The ability of time-space confinement was beyond his current complete control.

"Tianhuang!" Ye Guyi quickly helped Xu Zihuang up.

"I am fine."

Xu Zihuang relaxed, sinking into Ye Guyi's warm embrace, breathing heavily. Although he looked slightly disheveled, he was still proud to have severely injured a Limit Douluo with his Soul Saint realm cultivation.

The arrival of Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi also alarmed the elders in the Sea God Pavilion.

Chapter 470 The Scheme Replicated Again

One figure after another swept through the Sea God Pavilion and arrived beside Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi.

It was Elder Xuan and the other elders of the Sea God Pavilion. Although the powerful spiritual force that had enveloped Shrek Academy only lasted for a moment, it had brought them an indescribable sense of threat. Elder Xuan, in particular, could even sense that the level of that spiritual force was completely superior to his and Elder Mu's from back then.

Upon seeing the weakened state of Yu Tianhuang and Ye Guyi, the solemn emotion in his eyes was replaced by astonishment.

"Tianhuang, was that spiritual energy you released just now?" Elder Xuan asked in a deep voice, "What exactly happened?"

The other elders also changed their expressions slightly and looked at Xu Zihuang with concern.

With his breathing calmed down a bit, Xu Zihuang steadied himself with Ye Guyi's help and nodded solemnly.

"Elder Xuan, we encountered Death God Douluo Ye Xishui and Dragon Emperor Douluo Long Xiaoyao in the Mingdou Mountains. Left with no other choice, I had to use the innate ability of my Golden Eye Martial Soul True Body to cross the void and return to the academy."

"What did you say?!" Elder Xuan and the others' pupils contracted sharply. Yu Tianhuang's words were packed with information, immediately causing a strong shock to them.

First, there's the emergence of Death God Douluo Ye Xishui and Dragon Emperor Douluo Long Xiaoyao. These two Limit Douluos appeared in the Mingdou Mountains, so it's highly likely that they are supporting the Sun Moon Empire from behind the scenes.

No wonder the Sun and Moon Empire dared to initiate this war.

Furthermore, Yu Tianhuang used his Golden Eye Martial Soul True Body's innate ability to travel from the Mingdou Mountains through the void back to Shrek Academy, a distance that spanned more than several thousand kilometers. Such a monstrous innate ability is truly unheard of.

Even the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian, ​​who was known as the Beast God, probably couldn't do that.

Concerned for Xu Zihuang, Ye Guyi couldn't help but speak up, "Elder Xuan, Tianhuang isn't in good condition right now. Let him cultivate and recover first. I'm here today, and I can convey the details to the elders on your behalf."

"That's fine too." Upon hearing Ye Guyi's reminder, Elder Xuan realized his lapse in composure and immediately made the decision.

"Old Zhuang, check on Tianhuang's condition. Everyone, let's go back to the Sea God Pavilion first."

"Yes, Elder Xuan."

And so, the group returned to the conference hall on the first floor of the Sea God Pavilion.

Xu Zihuang's physical condition was not seriously injured; he was simply quite weak due to severe depletion of his soul power and life force. With the abundant life force provided by the living metal in his second sea of ​​consciousness, recovery was only a matter of time.

However, in the eyes of Elder Xuan and Elder Zhuang, this was a rather serious problem.

First, Elder Zhuang used his martial soul to infuse Xu Zihuang with a large amount of life energy, and then sent Xu Zihuang to the meditation room where Ye Guyi had previously secluded himself for cultivation. This meditation room was densely covered with the roots of the golden tree, and its life energy was extremely concentrated.

On the other side, Elder Xuan, Elder Song, Elder Zhuang, and other elders of the Sea God Pavilion took their seats at the long table. Ye Guyi sat in the seat that originally belonged to Xu Zihuang.

Sitting to the right of Elder Xuan, Elder Song spoke solemnly, "Gu Yi, tell us. What exactly is going on?"

At that moment, apart from the question of Yan Shaozhe's identity, Ye Guyi made no further attempt to conceal anything and recounted the entire situation at the time.

The more they heard, the more alarmed Elder Xuan and the others became, to the point that they eventually became numb.

He guided the Light of Death to attack Death God Douluo Ye Xishui, confronted Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao, two Limit Douluos, head-on, and finally severely injured Ye Xishui.

Yu Tianhuang is only eighteen years old. To achieve all this at the Soul Saint realm is simply too astonishing.

The elders of the Sea God Pavilion naturally had no doubt about its authenticity. After all, Ye Guyi had no reason to lie, and the titled Douluo of the Star Luo Empire were all witnesses.

Moreover, the spiritual power level that Yu Tianhuang just displayed has, to some extent, confirmed certain things.
