Level 9 Fixed Soul Guidance Shell: Kong Deming Makes His Move!

Everyone had seen what Huo Yuhao could do when driven by his obsession with revenge!

Another deputy general hurriedly stepped forward.

"Your Grace, I believe there may yet be room to turn this around!"

"Huo Yuhao is your own flesh and blood, after all. Blood is thicker than water!"

"If you take the initiative to acknowledge him as your son, the White Tiger Duke's Mansion will surely flourish with a Child of the Plane as talented as him!"

"Yes, exactly!"

The surrounding deputy generals and advisers nodded in agreement.

"Your Grace, this is a once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity!"

They all spoke at once, urging him on, each looking more eager than the last.

They had all seen the gruesome deaths of their counterparts in the other world on the Heavenly Screen.

None of them wanted that terrifying scene to play out in this world!

Dai Hao, however, remained silent.

He sat in the main seat, his gaze fixed on the Heavenly Screen.

On the screen, the blood-colored figure was closing in on his counterpart from the other world, one step at a time.

"Pass down my orders!"

Dai Hao spoke slowly.

"The army is to adopt a defensive stance and keep watch on the Sun Moon Empire's forces!"

"I... will return to the White Tiger Duke's Mansion first!"

Black World, outside Shrek City.

Beneath the golden Soul Tool Shield protecting the city, a figure emerged from Shrek City.

Thanks to Elder Zhuang's all-out treatment, even at the cost of burning his own origin, Xuan Zi had largely recovered from his injuries.

He stepped through the air, powerful Soul Power fluctuations radiating from him as he appeared above Shrek City.

"Hahahaha!"

Xuan Zi looked at the powerhouses of the three factions outside the city and laughed scornfully.

"Du Busi! Kong Deming! Zhongli Wu!"

"Huo Yuhao belongs to Shrek Academy. Give up on him!"

"You want him? Not a chance!"

Xuan Zi's voice echoed over Shrek City.

"Do you think you can come and go from Shrek City as you please?"

"Since you dared attack the holy land of Soul Masters, don't blame Shrek Academy for wiping you all out!"

"We've already sent word to the three great empires. The Titled Douluo of the Dou Ling Empire, the Heavenly Soul Empire, and the Star Luo Empire are on their way at full speed!"

"Once those powerhouses gather, whether you're from the Body Sect, Illustrious Virtue Hall, or the Holy Spirit Cult, you'll all die!"

As soon as he said this, cheers erupted from the walls of Shrek City.

The expressions of the powerhouses from the three factions outside the city changed.

The leaders of the three factions exchanged glances.

Du Busi frowned, and a cold glint flashed in Zhongli Wu's eyes.

Kong Deming, however, smiled faintly and stroked his long beard.

"Xuan Zi, are you saying we need to take Shrek City as quickly as possible?"

"In that case, let Illustrious Virtue Hall be the first to demonstrate its strength."

"And let Huo Yuhao see the benefits of joining Illustrious Virtue Hall!"

The moment his words fell, a silver light flashed in Kong Deming's eyes.

Light flashed in his hand, and a massive soul guidance shell appeared.

The shell was dark red from end to end, its casing covered in densely packed soul guidance patterns.

A destructive presence emanated from the shell!

"A Level 9 Fixed Soul Guidance Shell, Hellfire!"

At the sight, Jing Hongchen couldn't help crying out in alarm.

"Teacher, this is Shrek City. If you use a Level 9 Fixed Soul Guidance Shell..."

"It's fine!"

Kong Deming waved a hand and spoke calmly.

"Although a Level 9 Fixed Soul Guidance Shell isn't very practical against a single powerhouse, since it's easily dodged..."

"Against Shrek City, which can't move, it's the perfect weapon."

"Besides, I think the powerhouses of Shrek Academy should be able to stop a mere soul guidance shell. It won't cause too many casualties, will it?"

The next instant, Hellfire turned into a streak of dark red light in Kong Deming's hand and shot straight toward Shrek Academy's east gate!

The dark red streak tore through the sky and arrived in an instant.

"Boom!!!"

A world-shaking explosion suddenly thundered throughout Shrek City!

Blood-red hellfire surged into the sky, and a terrifying shock wave spread madly in all directions from the gate.

On Shrek Academy's eastern wall, the golden Soul Tool Shield protecting the city flickered wildly, letting out a mournful groan under the strain.

Then the shield shattered with a crash.

The blood-red hellfire opened its gaping maw and swallowed the entire eastern wall!

The wall's bricks melted, the gate liquefied, and hundreds of city defense soldiers were reduced to ash before they could even scream!

"How dare you!"

Xuan Zi roared, and his ink-black Seventh Soul Ring lit up.

"Seventh Soul Skill: Martial Soul Avatar!"

With a furious bull's roar, Xuan Zi's body swelled, transforming into an enormous Godly Taotie Bull!

Brilliant yellow light streamed from the Godly Taotie Bull, forming a yellow dome that descended over the eastern wall.

The yellow dome collided with the blood-red hellfire, producing a piercing sizzle.

Yet the power of a Level 9 Fixed Soul Guidance Shell was comparable to a full-force strike from a Limit Douluo.

Even with Xuan Zi giving it his all, the yellow dome was still melting away layer by layer under the hellfire, visibly shrinking.

"Not good!"

Yan Shaozhe's expression changed drastically atop the wall.

"Xuan Zi can't hold it back!"

The next instant, blazing golden flames erupted around Yan Shaozhe.

His Ninth Soul Ring lit up!

"Ninth Soul Skill: Phoenix Nirvana!"

With a clear phoenix cry, a Bright Phoenix wreathed in golden flames soared into the sky and plunged straight into the blood-red hellfire.

Golden flames and blood-red hellfire intertwined furiously.

The flames on the Bright Phoenix steadily weakened, while Hellfire gradually subsided.

Finally, with a phoenix cry that rang through the clouds, Hellfire was extinguished completely.

The golden flames dispersed, revealing Yan Shaozhe once more.

His face, however, was as pale as paper. His Soul Power and mental strength were exhausted, and he swayed on his feet.

Yan Shaozhe's Ninth Soul Skill, Phoenix Nirvana, could be used to withstand a fatal injury and be reborn from the flames.

But after using it, he too would be close to a lamp running out of oil. He would need a long period of rest to recover.

"Quick, help Dean Yan down to rest!"

Qian Duoduo shouted, and two teachers from Shrek Academy hurried over to support Yan Shaozhe.

However, immediately afterward...

"Hehehe..."

An icy laugh rang out as Zhongli Wu, standing on the Bone Dragon King, slowly flew above Shrek City.

"Shrek Academy truly lives up to its ten-thousand-year legacy. It really is interesting!"

"But how will you block this next move?"

The moment his words fell, the Bone Dragon King slowly opened its enormous jaws.

A ball of cyan light gradually gathered in its mouth.

A gale suddenly swept across the land.

"Extreme of Wind!"
