Underworld King Douluo vs Heavenly Favor Douluo + Light-Dark Douluo + War God Douluo

When Beddon saw Ha Luosa absorbing the Death Knight's power, he immediately sensed that something was wrong.

Ha Luosa, merely a demigod, had already prevented him and Long Yeyue from taking him down quickly. If Ha Luosa absorbed the Death Knight's power as well, he might very well break through to quasi-god rank.

Though his strength would certainly fall short of a true quasi-god who had broken through normally, he was Ha Luosa, the Underworld King Douluo!

Faced with Beddon's panic and Long Yeyue's belated realization, Ha Luosa thoughtfully explained, "I can temporarily enhance my own abilities by absorbing the Death Knights' power."

The twelve Death Knights had been by Ha Luosa's side ever since his martial soul awakened. Their connection to him was naturally far closer than that of other undead creatures.

Seeing the situation spiraling out of control, Beddon decisively chose to...

Call for backup...

"Brother Qian Gu, are you really going to stand by and watch the living beings of the continent suffer devastation?"

Qian Gu Die Ting, who had been singled out, nearly spat out a mouthful of blood. If you couldn't win, you called in reinforcements—and you were even treating him, the Tower Master of the Spirit Transmission Tower, who was utterly incompatible with Shrek, as backup? Wasn't that just bullying an honest man?

Why not call the Tang Sect?

But now that he had been named, Qian Gu Die Ting could no longer pretend to be invisible. He could only instruct his subordinates, "Once I make my move, stop recording. We only need to tell the world that the Underworld King Douluo, whom even the Sea God Pavilion's Master and Vice Master of Shrek Academy could not defeat together, was slain after I intervened."

"Do you need me to join you?" Leng Yang Jun asked. The strength Ha Luosa had displayed could no longer be explained by someone who had merely entered the demigod rank.

Qian Gu Die Ting refused. "No need. Mother isn't here, so the Spirit Pagoda must retain a Limit Douluo to ensure its safety."

After giving his orders, Qian Gu Die Ting immediately summoned his Four-word Battle Armor, Heaven and Earth Dominion.

Gripping the Coiled Dragon Staff, Qian Gu Die Ting shot into the night sky like lightning. Blinding white light surged explosively from his body, while the Coiled Dragon Staff in his hand rapidly expanded until it was a full hundred meters long, as though it were about to pierce the heavens.

Qian Gu Die Ting's body turned illusory and abruptly grew larger. Grasping one end of the Coiled Dragon Staff with both hands, he arched backward, then swung it down at Ha Luosa with a thunderous crash.

"What do you take human lives for!?"

His resounding voice echoed through Shrek City, marking the Spirit Transmission Tower Master's official entry into the battlefield.

Regardless of the battle's outcome, Ha Luosa, the Underworld King Douluo, would be recorded in history. With his own strength alone, he had held off three Limit Douluos from two top-tier powers—something unprecedented in the Federation's history.

"I hadn't wanted to use this move."

Ha Luosa had not been idle either. As he absorbed the Death Knights' power, the other undead creatures had all dispersed. Yet they had neither truly vanished nor returned to the domain to await another summons. Instead, they had turned into the most fundamental, purest Soul Power.

Facing Qian Gu Die Ting's sudden attack, Ha Luosa immediately mobilized that power. The scattered gray Soul Power gathered at once and rapidly compressed under his exquisite control, until it was ultimately reduced to the size of a single teardrop.

"That contains the Soul Power of nearly every undead creature, yet he really compressed it into something the size of a teardrop?" Long Yeyue cried out, utterly incredulous at Ha Luosa's feat.

This child must not be allowed to live. Beddon silently made his decision. Ha Luosa let out a savage grin and immediately fired the Tear of Death, compressed to its utmost limit.

"Would you care how many soul beasts you killed in the Spirit Ascension Platform?"

To Ha Luosa, human lives were like the soul beasts in Qian Gu Die Ting's Spirit Ascension Platform—nothing more than expendable materials for cultivation.

Ha Luosa's Tear of Death streaked through the dark night sky, carving a gray line through it as if it were about to split the whole world in two.

Naturally, Qian Gu Die Ting did not dare underestimate it. He immediately activated three enhancement soul skills, increasing the power of his next strike in every aspect.

One had to know that Qian Gu Die Ting possessed nine red soul rings! With the amplification of three Hundred Thousand Year soul skills, Qian Gu Die Ting was confident that even Beddon at his peak would not dare receive this attack head-on.

At last, Qian Gu Die Ting's Coiled Dragon Staff collided with Ha Luosa's Tear of Death.

The sound of their collision was very soft—no, it was so loud that everyone present had lost their hearing. All they saw was an enormous explosion engulfing all four of them, and beyond that, they could perceive nothing else.

Even the Spirit Pagoda's defensive system, led by Leng Yang Jun, nearly saw the dark blue flames protecting the tower extinguished by the all-out clash between Qian Gu Die Ting and Ha Luosa.

No one knew how much time had passed. Perhaps it had been as brief as a second, perhaps as long as a century. At last, the spectators regained their hearing and could once more make out the situation on the battlefield.

Holding the Coiled Dragon Staff, Qian Gu Die Ting stood proudly before Ha Luosa like a divine pillar that steadied the sea. Though his face was covered in blood, his body bore numerous injuries, and even his Four-word Battle Armor had sustained damage, he had still not retreated a single step. This was the true essence of the Coiled Dragon StaffUnyielding!

However, Ha Luosa was in even worse condition. At this moment, not a single undead creature remained by his side, yet his aura still had not broken through to quasi-god rank. It had only reached the point of being on the verge of a breakthrough, without truly crossing that threshold.

While Qian Gu Die Ting had been meeting Ha Luosa's Tear of Death, Beddon and Long Yeyue had not been idle either. They successfully interrupted Ha Luosa's absorption of the Death Knights' power, preventing him from reaching quasi-god rank.

Beddon looked at Qian Gu Die Ting, who had come to support them, and said gratefully, "Thank you for your help, Brother Qian Gu. Today, we must kill Ha Luosa here. If we allow him to grow, he will surely become a great threat."

Though Long Yeyue despised the Spirit Pagoda, with such a powerful enemy before them, she also rarely showed Qian Gu Die Ting a friendlier expression.

Yet Qian Gu Die Ting's actions greatly exceeded both their expectations.

Qian Gu Die Ting neither replied to Beddon and Long Yeyue nor continued attacking Ha Luosa. Instead, he shouted, "Tang Sect, are you really going to stand by and watch the living beings of the continent suffer devastation?"

After Qian Gu Die Ting's shout, the world fell into deathly silence. No one responded to him at all.

Long Yeyue's expression turned extremely ugly. At present, neither the Tang Sect's Master nor Vice Master was in Shrek City, and among those remaining at the Tang Sect headquarters, there was not a single Limit Douluo. Sending anyone below that rank into battle would be nothing more than sending them to their deaths.

But the Sea God Pavilion's Master and Vice Master of Shrek Academy had already acted, and the Tower Master of the Spirit Transmission Tower had made his move as well. If the Tang Sect did not act, it would surely fall into disgrace; if it did act, it would be sending people to their deaths.

This was an utterly open scheme!

I originally wrote a special Qixi Festival chapter, but then I remembered that the protagonist and Gu Yuena had not even met yet, so I'll post it later...
