Chapter 531 Feeling the pain of the world and Xu Zihuang’s appearance (4.7k)
Unlike Douluo Continent, the entire Xinghai Continent is in the center of Douluo Star. The surrounding sea area has a warm climate all year round, and many powerful sea soul beast groups will live here.
In the turbulent era of ancient times, it was not only the soul beasts on the mainland that oppressed the indigenous people of the Star Sea Continent, but also the sea soul beasts from the sea. It is common for sea soul beasts to invade the mainland.
It was not until the past few thousand years that the overall strength of the soul masters of the Star Sea Continent was greatly enhanced, and the frequency of sea soul beasts invading the continent was much reduced.
Although there are disputes between the Northern Alliance and the Southern Alliance on the Star Sea Continent, even among the nine carefully differentiated territories, when faced with the invasion of sea soul beasts, the aboriginal people of the Star Sea Continent will tacitly understand each other. They reached a consensus that they should unite to resist the Sea Soul Beast.
It's really because the past history of Star Sea Continent's struggle with sea soul beasts was too dark and bloody.
It was for this reason that Feng Tianyao, Ma Xiaotao, and another titled Douluo Lord from the Southern Alliance rushed to the north of the Star Sea Continent immediately.
This titled Douluo Lord is named Jin Chenghong, his martial spirit is Golden Crocodile, and the territory he controls is also called Golden Crocodile Territory.
However, compared to Ma Xiaotao, Feng Tianyao and Jin Chenghong rushed here because they had their own selfish motives.
Judging from the terrifying movements in the north of the Star Sea Continent, it is very likely that the sea soul beasts that invaded the Star Sea Continent this time have a cultivation level of 100,000 years.
Sea soul beasts with 100,000 years of cultivation invading the mainland will certainly bring crisis, but they will also bring opportunities. As long as it is a soul beast with a cultivation level of more than 100,000 years, it will leave behind extremely rare 100,000-year-old soul rings and soul bones after death.
Except for a few lords with Titled Douluo cultivation on the Star Sea Continent, everyone else is far from reaching the realm of Titled Douluo, let alone the hundred thousand year soul ring. Once the 100,000-year-old soul bone falls into the hands of the Titled Douluo Lord of the Northern Alliance, the balance between the Northern Alliance and the Southern Alliance will be broken again.
Of course, Feng Tianyao and Jin Chenghong themselves also have some thoughts about this hundred thousand year soul bone. A hundred-thousand-year-old soul bone is a treasure that can change one's destiny against the heavens. Who doesn't covet it?
They couldn't see it clearly from a distance before, but when they witnessed the huge crater like a meteorite falling from the sky, they calmed down instantly, and a fear originating from the depths of their souls began to grow in their hearts.
The diameter of this deep pit is dozens of kilometers, and its area is comparable to the top cities on their Star Sea Continent. This means that the black-purple sky-reaching light beam just now is enough to level any large city on their Star Sea Continent.
What amazing power is this? !
Although Titled Douluo can easily destroy a city, in fact it is just that he has that ability. If you want to destroy the city with one strike, you must be a super Douluo level expert.
At this moment, Feng Tianyao and Jin Chenghong followed Ma Xiaotao's gaze with emotion.
In the distance, over the sea in the north of the Star Sea Continent, a beautiful middle-aged woman with a bright purple-gold light shining all over her body was quietly suspended here, with a rich blood-colored aura and silver light converging towards her body.
"The transformed soul beast is indeed a sea soul beast with a cultivation level of over 100,000 years."
Their eyes instantly froze.
The difference between sea soul beasts and soul beasts on the mainland is that as long as they break through the 100,000-year realm, they can still transform into human form in a short time while choosing to keep their true form and continue to practice. Therefore, they subconsciously regarded the Demon Emperor as an ordinary sea soul beast with a cultivation level of 100,000 years, but did not associate it with a ferocious beast that had a cultivation level of more than 200,000 years.
However, the terrifying aura coming from the Demon King and his behavior of devouring the flesh, flesh and souls of the natives of the Star Sea Continent still made their faces extremely ugly.
Noticing the movement here, the Demon King looked over coldly, and the smile on his pale face became more and more weird.
"There are three more human titled Douluo. It seems that this uncivilized continent is not as unbearable as I expected. Now that you are here, you, like them, dedicate your flesh, blood, and soul to me. Hahahahahahaha ——”
After hearing the Demon Emperor's words, the expressions of Feng Tianyao and Jin Chenghong changed again, and their hearts sank completely to the bottom.
The sea soul beast in front of him had clearly killed several titled Douluo from the Northern Alliance.
I think so. If they faced the Demon King's attack, they would not be able to survive.
Just when Feng Tianyao and Jin Chenghong were thinking a lot, Ma Xiaotao let out a high-pitched phoenix cry with a cold expression.
Her character is like this, she has hated evil since she was a child. The Demon Emperor slaughtering innocent civilians on the Star Sea Continent like this is simply more vicious in his eyes than those evil soul masters who have done many evil things.
Xuanhe's momentum exploded in the air, and hot air flow surged with it.
Ma Xiaotao's whole body was surrounded by a steady fiery red light. Although she is nearly thirty years old, the passage of time has not left any trace on her gorgeous face. On the contrary, with the growth of age and experience, she is no longer as irritable as she used to be, and her whole person has gained a very charming temperament.
Two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red, nine soul rings rose up from her feet one after another. Her aura soared again, and even her ambiguous pink eyes turned red.
The seventh soul ring, as dark as ink, shone brightly, and the space around Ma Xiaotao instantly became distorted due to the extreme heat. As soon as she came up, she directly displayed her martial soul true form.
"Ang!" The phoenix call she made this time was obviously much clearer and more majestic than the king of birds. At the same time as the phoenix's cry sounded, a huge fire phoenix emerged from the sky. Fire Phoenix True Form!
Compared to the Fire Phoenix Douluo Luanfeng from the Sun and Moon Empire, Ma Xiaotao is now more qualified to be called Fire Phoenix Douluo.
The true form of the fire phoenix spread out a pair of gorgeous wings high in the sky. Each feather on it was like a burning golden-red flame, rendering the entire sky the same color. Ma Xiaotao, who transformed into a fire phoenix, flew straight towards the Demon Emperor.
Her questioning voice, which seemed to contain endless anger, resounded throughout the sky.
"As a sea soul beast that believes in Poseidon, you dare not follow Poseidon's oracle. You have attacked innocent civilians on this continent and killed countless creatures. Aren't you afraid of being punished by God?"
The smile on the Demon Emperor's face instantly froze due to Ma Xiaotao's question, and the next moment, he laughed maniacally with resentment and disdain.
"Poseidon?! What qualifications does that extremely hypocritical and despicable person have for me to believe in? My husband was so innocent back then, but he killed my husband for his own selfish desires. He took away my husband's soul ring and soul. Not to mention, in the end, he still promoted my husband as an evil soul beast on Douluo Continent. Is this kind of sanctimonious hypocrite worthy of becoming a god?! Hahahahaha! A group of ants, if you want to stop me, you can come and try try!"
"Shut up!" Ma Xiaotao shouted in a cold tone. She was accepted as a personal disciple by Yan Shaozhe since she was a child, and she grew up in Shrek Academy. During those years at Shrek Academy, what she heard the most was the upright and majestic image of Poseidon.
How could Lord Poseidon, who shattered the Wuhun Palace conspiracy, be the hypocritical person the Demon Emperor said he was?
"That's sheer nonsense. Although I don't know what the connection is between you and Lord Poseidon, but since your husband died in Lord Poseidon's hands, there must be a way to kill him!"
Amidst the fierce shouting, countless flaming meteors condensed and formed in the high air behind Ma Xiaotao, shooting towards the Demon Emperor's body crazily.
The sixth soul skill, Phoenix Meteor Shower!
Ma Xiaotao, who had cultivated as Soul Emperor back then, used the Phoenix Meteor Shower to only cover a few hundred meters in radius. But now, with her title Douluo cultivation, she used this soul skill, and the entire area of several thousand meters turned into a crimson world. Moreover, the size of each flaming meteor has also increased a lot, and its power is astonishing.
The Demon Emperor's expression became extremely cold, but she didn't even bother to say anything else. She slowly raised the white palm of her right hand to a position parallel to her chest.
Deep black light condensed in her palm, condensing into a counterclockwise rotating vortex, like a black hole connecting to extraterrestrial space. The surrounding light seemed to be swallowed up, becoming dim in an instant.
"Buzz--" A strange buzzing sound suddenly sounded.
There didn't seem to be any changes in this space, but Ma Xiaotao's figure and the Phoenix Meteor Shower behind her seemed to be suppressed instantly. After a brief stagnation, it suddenly shot out in the opposite direction.
Ma Xiaotao's martial spirit true form was even suppressed and collapsed. After she regained her human form, her face turned pale and she let out a painful groan. Her eyes were full of unwillingness and humiliation.
This is what is called overestimating one's capabilities. Although Ma Xiaotao's talent is outstanding, she has just entered the realm of Titled Douluo and is still not qualified to fight against the Demon Emperor.
All this happened in a flash, and Feng Tianyao and Jin Chenghong had no time to stop Ma Xiaotao. Moreover, they were also implicated by Ma Xiaotao's sixth soul skill, Phoenix Meteor Shower.
The Phoenix Meteor Shower was performed by Ma Xiaotao when he was in the spirit avatar state. The two of them did not dare to be careless at all, and they also used the seventh soul skill, the spirit avatar.
The form of Feng Tianyao's jade phoenix is similar to Ma Xiaotao, but it is inferior in terms of momentum.
After all, the Jade Phoenix is only a subspecies of Phoenix, and after Ma Xiaotao's Evil Fire Phoenix spirit eliminated the evil fire problem, it transformed into a Fire Phoenix. It's just that the bloodline is not as pure as the real Fire Phoenix.
Jin Chenghong, the leader of the Golden Crocodile Territory, is a sturdy old man, at least two meters tall, with bulging muscles all over his body. The long black hair and fluffy beard are particularly lush, and the breath is sturdy. His eyes were shining brightly, and his whole body was covered with a layer of fine golden scales. Although the pair of golden claws are only about three inches long, their extremely sharp aura is somewhat similar to the dark gold fear claws of the dark gold fear claw bear lineage.
Surrounded by the deep black seventh soul ring, he transformed into a fierce and golden crocodile. Behind him, there was also a huge, thick long tail covered with scales and spines.
The real body of the golden crocodile transformed by Jin Chenghong turned around, and the big tail swept out from behind, with a series of golden lights and shadows that scattered dozens of flaming meteors. Intense golden light erupted on his body, and his aura was actually stronger than Feng Tianyao.
While resisting the Phoenix Meteor Shower, Feng Tianyao couldn't help but glance at Jin Chenghong from the corner of his eye, frowning.
Here he can be sure of one thing, that is, the always low-key Golden Crocodile Lord is deliberately hiding his clumsiness. At least its strength is not inferior to him.
Speaking of which, this Golden Crocodile Leader only emerged on the Star Sea Continent ten thousand years ago. Although the Xinghai Continent at the beginning was also divided and fought by major soul master families, the Golden Crocodile family had never existed. Back then, the ancestors of the Golden Crocodile family suddenly appeared on the Star Sea Continent as if they appeared out of thin air.
The record left behind is that the ancestors of the Golden Crocodile family had a special mutated martial spirit and passed on this powerful martial spirit.
But in fact, the ancestor of the Golden Crocodile family was not an aborigine of the Xinghai Continent. But it comes from the Douluo Continent.
Thousands of years ago, Wuhun Palace launched the war against the Tiandou Empire and the Star Luo Empire. Because of the final defeat, the top brass of Wuhun Palace were also liquidated.
Some remained anonymous on the mainland, while others were unwilling to accept this fact and finally chose to leave Douluo Continent.
The ancestor of Lord Jin Chenghong of the Golden Crocodile Territory is the latter. Their family's inheritance originated from the lineage of Golden Crocodile Douluo, the second enshrinement of the Wuhun Palace at that time. The martial spirit passed down from their family is not a mutated crocodile-like martial spirit, but the Golden Crocodile King with golden blood.
In the world of soul beasts, gold and silver have special significance for high-level soul beasts. Silver generally represents multiple attributes or powerful attributes, just like the Silver Moon Wolf King. The color gold represents their extremely strong physical abilities, and they all have golden bloodline without exception.
The Golden Dragon and the Golden Lion are both powerful beings with golden blood. Strictly speaking, the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear can also be classified among them.
Back then, Golden Crocodile Douluo of the Wuhun Palace chose to self-destruct in order to protect the God of Angels, Qian Renxue. The descendants of Golden Crocodile Douluo are also the most loyal supporters of the Angel Family. Unable to accept the fact that Wuhun Palace was defeated, and even less willing to accept the unlimited slander of the Angel Family by the two empires of Tiandou and Xingluo, they resolutely left Douluo Continent.
During the period when Wuhun Palace was at its most powerful, there was exploration of the sea areas beyond the Douluo Continent. The attack on Poseidon Island was one of them.
As early as ten thousand years ago, Wuhun Palace actually knew about the existence of Xinghai Continent, but the news had not spread yet. The descendants of Golden Crocodile Douluo chose this Star Sea Continent as their destination. After many obstacles along the way, some tribesmen finally successfully arrived here.
At first, they had the idea of counterattacking Douluo Continent, but due to reality, they never took action. Because as the bloodline of the Golden Crocodile family was gradually assimilated by the aborigines of the Star Sea Continent, in the past ten thousand years, no clan member could break through to the Super Douluo realm like the Golden Crocodile Douluo.
Without Super Douluo in charge, how can we talk about counterattacking Douluo Continent?
As soon as Feng Tianyao and Jin Chenghong escaped from the Phoenix Meteor Shower, the Demon Emperor came over them without knowing when, his cold eyes lowered his right hand, and the black vortex appeared again.
"Buzz——"
The feeling of being suppressed and rejected came instantly. The bodies of the soaring sapphire phoenix and the majestic golden crocodile king stuck to the ground uncontrollably.
On top of the original huge pit, the ground below was once again sunken. The rock and soil melted instantly, forming a deeper pit.
Feng Tianyao and Jin Chenghong had already been forced out of their martial spirit avatars, and their bodies were kneeling at the bottom of the pit, unable to move at all.
At the same time, the Demon Emperor's left hand flew in the direction of Ma Xiaotao's body. Unlike the black vortex on the palm of her right hand that rotates counterclockwise, the black vortex on her left hand rotates clockwise.
A strange scene appeared. Ma Xiaotao's figure seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, turning and flying towards the Demon Emperor.
The Demon Emperor pinched Ma Xiaotao's jade neck, and the corners of his mouth made a slight arc, with murderous intent in his eyes.
"Die."
Ma Xiaotao's eyes widened. This was the first time in so many years that she felt the feeling of being on the verge of death. The body became weak, the consciousness became blurred, and the "ho ho" sound became weaker and weaker, and he was extremely embarrassed.
No one dares to say that he is not afraid of the threat of death. Even Ma Xiaotao, who is naturally tough, still instinctively feels fear when facing death. The emotion of fear and the strong desire to survive were intertwined in my heart. This feeling is never pleasant.
But at this moment, Ma Xiaotao found that the Demon Emperor's strength suddenly weakened a bit. She panted heavily, her full chest rising and falling. Noticing the Demon King's abnormal expression, she looked back slightly.
A tall, black-haired young man was standing proudly in the void behind her. The young man's face was extremely familiar to her, making her nose feel sour at this moment, and she felt even more in a trance.
"Jade Tianhuang..."
