As the new emperor and old king waged a world-shaking battle, undercurrents also surged across the battlefield far away in Heaven Dou City.

Light Darkness Douluo Long Yeyue wore a grave expression. Moving as fast as lightning, she crossed layer upon layer of intricate checkpoints and entered the underground world.

This Underground Space had been built by the Tang Sect at the cost of countless resources. Its passages extended in every direction, deep and secluded like the blood vessels of a human body, reaching throughout Heaven Dou City.

This was the Tang Sect's preparation for a rainy day. They had practically hollowed out Heaven Dou City's foundations to create this underground fortress capable of handling any crisis.

Long Yeyue strode forward and headed straight for the broad main passage. At its end, waves of blazing, majestic auras had been waiting for a long time.

The War God Hall's War Gods stood solemnly in formation. Their plan was to use Eternal Kingdom to bombard the Spirit Pagoda Headquarters, which would mean Shrek City being completely reduced to ashes.

Thus, Shrek Academy was merely an empty shell, with only a few insignificant personnel left behind to confuse the enemy. All of its top combatants had been Secretly Transferred to the Tang Sect.

Now, Vast Sea Douluo Chen Xin Jie's Physical Body had been occupied by Tang San's Divine Sense, and he was responsible for luring away Zhao Xuanzhen. Deputy Hall Master Yue Tian Douluo Guan Yue had betrayed the War God Hall, while First War God Radiant Sun Douluo Ao Rui had become the leader of the War God Hall.

Golden-red halos flowed around Ao Rui's body, as though a miniature sun were contained within him. He said in a deep voice:

"Light Darkness Douluo, let us begin."

Long Yeyue Nodded slightly and raised a hand, taking out the ultimate Soul Guide weapon that could make even quasi-gods turn pale from her storage Soul Tool.

It was a streamlined silver-white cannonball, more than a meter long. The famed Eternal Kingdom was actually even more Exquisite and Small than an ordinary Level 9 Fixed Soul Cannonball.

Its front half was bright and translucent, with countless tiny points of light faintly visible within. They flashed in cycles along some Mysterious and Profound trajectory. The delicate Soul Guide circuits on its rear half were intricate and complex enough to make one dizzy.

Though it remained in an inactive, stable state, Eternal Kingdom emitted an unparalleled bloodthirsty aura. The War Gods with slightly weaker cultivation instinctively retreated several steps, their eyes filled with wariness as they dared not face its edge.

"The Spirit Pagoda is our greatest enemy. The day we destroy the Spirit Pagoda is today!"

Long Yeyue raised Eternal Kingdom passionately, then turned toward the rear of the crowd. "Ling Zichen, bring out that Soul Guide cannon and fire Eternal Kingdom!"

"Your Excellency, I do not think the Tang Sect should use Eternal Kingdom so rashly."

A woman dressed in a black uniform skirt stepped forward. Her long black hair was coiled into a bun. Her face could not be called stunningly beautiful, but her figure was particularly eye-catching. Her waist was slender enough to grip with one hand, while the curve of her buttocks was exaggeratedly prominent. Combined with her long black-stockinged legs, she was utterly seductive.

"My ancestor once participated in the creation of Eternal Kingdom. No one understands the power of this God-Slaying Soul Guide Cannonball better than I do."

Ling Zichen said seriously, "Even if the other two God-Slaying Cannonballs were stacked together and doubled in power, they still could not compare to Eternal Kingdom. Eternal Kingdom can destroy the Spirit Pagoda, Shrek City, and even cover nearby smaller cities, affecting tens of millions of civilians!

"It is true that the Tang Sect is hostile to the Spirit Pagoda, but if we slaughter so many of our fellow people, how would we be any different from the Holy Spirit Cult Evil Soul Masters who bombarded Shrek City back then?

"Light Darkness Douluo, we should consider this carefully. We should try to modify Eternal Kingdom and reduce this cannonball's power, destroying only the Spirit Pagoda while avoiding harm to innocents!"

"Harm to innocents?" Long Yeyue flew into a rage. Her resounding voice echoed passionately through the Underground Space. "You, an Ordinary Person without Soul Power, do not understand how powerful Tai Chi Douluo is, nor do you understand how Invincible Under Heaven those Natural Guardians are!

"If we do not fire the complete Eternal Kingdom, the Tang Sect will have absolutely no chance of destroying the Spirit Pagoda. How can those who seek great achievements be constrained by a woman's petty mercy!

"To destroy the Spirit Hall Empire, Ancestor Tang San allowed Poison Douluo to slaughter a million troops at Jialing Pass. To stop the Sun Moon Empire's ambitions, Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao did not hesitate to detonate numerous Level 9 Fixed Soul Cannonballs in Mingdu, creating a night without sun or moon!

"This time, the Tang Sect will eradicate the Spirit Pagoda and remove this cancer from the continent. What does it matter if we sacrifice one Shrek City?"

Consumed by obsession and fanaticism, Long Yeyue gave Ling Zichen no chance to refute her. She stepped forward and roughly snatched away the storage Soul Tool at the other woman's waist.

As Soul Power flowed into it, a massive rose-red cannon appeared in the Underground Space. Ling Zichen was merely a mortal, but in the Research Field of Soul Guide weapons, she could be called the number one on the continent. This Soul Guide cannon was quasi-Level 10; only it could bear the tremendous burden of firing Eternal Kingdom over such an immense distance!

Ling Zichen bit her pale lips. Light Darkness Douluo had always been domineering and overbearing, nothing like the mild-tempered Duoqing Douluo Zang Xin. Shrek City's residents had barely escaped the two God-Slaying Cannonballs, only to still face the bleak ending of devastation.

Ignoring Ling Zichen's despondent gaze, Long Yeyue personally operated the cannon and pushed the silver-white Eternal Kingdom deep into its barrel.

However, just as Long Yeyue locked onto the location of the Spirit Pagoda Headquarters and was about to issue the firing command, the Soul Guide radar deep within the Tang Sect's underground base emitted an urgent, piercing alarm!

"Beep! Beep! Beep!"

On the Soul Guide Screen, Soul Power fluctuations reacted violently. Points of light were rapidly converging on the Tang Sect Headquarters from all directions!

"Titled Douluos, follow me into battle!"

Her face darkening, Long Yeyue sensed that something was wrong. She made a prompt decision and rushed toward the surface passage at the front of the group. The Tang Sect's powerhouses Followed Closely, and when Radiant Sun Douluo Ao Rui saw this, he immediately led the War God Hall's War Gods after them.

The group burst out of the Underground Space, and the sight above made everyone's hearts sink to the bottom.

The sky over the entire Heaven Dou City was shrouded in dark clouds. Dense Clouds blocked out the sunlight, plunging the city into Dead silence and darkness. Beneath the low-hanging cloud layer, figures stood proudly in the air.

The two women at the front possessed peerless beauty. Gu Yue was cold and secluded, while Na'er was brilliant and radiant. Behind the two Silver Dragon King's Half-Selves, savage and ancient ferocious auras shot straight into the clouds. The Star Dou Fierce Beasts had disguised themselves as the Myriad Beast Sect and deployed in full force!

Beast God Ditian wore a Black Iron mask over his face. The pair of exposed golden eyes shone brilliantly and fiercely as he looked at the human powerhouses facing a great enemy, his heart surging with emotion.

The Lord was indeed the Lord. Her greatness required no words. After being trapped in the Star Dou Great Forest's core region for Ten Thousand Years, they could finally leave the mountains and fight!

Blood debts had to be repaid in blood. Di Tian was more than happy to kill these Tang Sect Titled Douluos. As long as they were killed, the Star Dou Fierce Beasts could return to the Spirit Pagoda as the Myriad Beast Sect and relive the flourishing age from Ten Thousand Years Ago, when the two races ruled together!

"How could you..."

Long Yeyue was Horrified. No matter how she thought about it, she could not understand how the Spirit Pagoda had launched a surprise attack on the Tang Sect Headquarters and come knocking before they could fire Eternal Kingdom!

"Sorry. Tai Chi Douluo once saved our lives, and we were unwilling to watch the Tang Sect bring about such a catastrophe." Two figures stepped out from the Tang Sect's ranks.

Seventh War God Sea Tang Douluo Shi Mengshan and Ninth War God Lightning Flame Douluo Jiang Zhanheng faced their War God Hall colleagues with guilt, voluntarily admitting that they were the traitors who had leaked the plan.

"Damn it! Are you worthy of the Hall Master's years of cultivation?"

Emperor Sword Douluo Long Tianwu's sword intent flared in fury as he sought to Clean Up the traitors. A flash of seven-colored light appeared, the Laws of Space rippled, and Gu Yue used the Dragon God Core to teleport the two War Gods back into the Spirit Pagoda's ranks. His furious strike hit nothing but air.

Her eyes stained a gorgeous purple, Gu Yue coldly swept her gaze over the coalition of the two factions below. She Said coldly, "Your plan has been exposed. Vast Sea Douluo will certainly die!

"Surrender and accept judgment!"

"If you want to fight, then fight! We would rather die than surrender!"

The Titled Douluos roared in unison. The Tang Sect and Spirit Pagoda had too many old and new grudges to count. Under Tang San's influence, the War God Hall had been tied to the Tang Sect's chariot, and they had long since gone too far down this road.

Besides, Gu Yue kept talking about accepting judgment. She clearly had no intention of leaving them alive. With no path left to retreat, their eyes reddened one by one as they erupted with intense Soul Power fluctuations and charged forward like desperate men!

"Ants."

Contempt emerged in Di Tian's eyes. Being unable to use the Gold-eyed Black Dragon King's true form did not affect the Beast God's dominance in the slightest. Though the Star Dou Great Forest had been suppressed by humanity and forced into repeated retreats, no one had ever defeated this First Fierce Beast Under Heaven in single combat!

His right hand clenched in the air, and rings of deep black halos appeared behind Di Tian. Heaven and earth changed color, as if all darkness in the world had gathered together and formed an eight-foot-long Black Dragon Sword. Its sword intent was razor-sharp, tearing a massive gash through the dark sky.

The Black Dragon Sword Cut Down toward Long Tianwu. The Level 98 Emperor Sword Douluo hurriedly donned his Three-character Battle Armor, yet he still felt a terrifying threat of death approaching. That sword intent seemed ready to annihilate his Battle Armor and soul together!

"Mengjun, merge!"

Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Tianwu Mengjun Emperor God Sword!

Blue and yellow light shot into the sky. The phantom of an emperor lord and the divine manifestation of a goddess emerged. At the Moment of Crisis, the twin swords merged into one, and a magnificent blue-gold Emperor God Sword swept out, barely blocking the Black Dragon Sword's Heaven and Earth Creation slash!

Amid a thunderous explosion, shockwaves rolled outward layer upon layer. Long Tianwu and Su Mengjun grunted, their bodies retreating rapidly as all color drained from their faces. With Di Tian's casual sword strike alone, the Martial Soul Fusion Skill was already on the verge of collapse!

"Kill!"

Bear King let out a savage roar. Even in human form, the peerless sharpness of his Dark Gold Dreadclaw could not be concealed. He rampaged forward, his claws tearing through space as he battled Third War God Dark Emperor Douluo Luo Yuhang and Eighth War God Soaring Dragon Douluo Nangong Yi.

Clear dragon roars rang out, and howls shook the heavens. Zi Ji, Scarlet King, Biji, Demon Spirit, and the other fierce beasts all attacked. The Star Dou Great Forest had been repressed for too long. Having finally encountered a chance to slaughter as they pleased, they naturally intended to cherish it. Without exposing their Original Bodies, the fierce beasts vented their emotions madly.

"Hehe..."

Myriad Monster King gave a sinister laugh and Set eyes on the Tang Sect disciples who were stealthily moving out Soul Guide weapons in an attempt to support their side. In an instant, the Thousand Year Domain spread out, and countless wooden vines and roots twisted together to kill, harvesting those Tang Sect members who were Resisting Stubbornly.

Elsewhere, Radiant Sun Douluo Ao Rui narrowly dodged Na'er's incoming Silver Dragon Spear. He exchanged a glance with Magic Qin Douluo Mo Zihong, who was struggling Not far away to withstand the torrent of Seven Elements. Ruthlessness and resolve flashed through their eyes.

The Great Sun shining in the air suddenly stretched outward on both sides. Across its golden-red oval center ran streaks of white light. The Soul Power of the two War Gods intertwined, and the Martial Soul Fusion Skill Radiant Sun Heavenly Qin reappeared in the world!

"Radiant Sun Heavenly Qin, Scatter the Clouds and Reveal the Sun!"

Their voices overlapped. The solemn qin music became almost tangible, and soundwaves swept across the fiercely contested battlefield between the two factions, forming a barrier of sonic walls that did everything possible to restrict every powerhouse's movements.

"Long Yeyue, detonate Eternal Kingdom!"

Ao Rui's roar was frantic. The Emperor God Twin Swords, with the combat power of a Limit Douluo, were about to be crushed to death. Di Tian's strength was unfathomable. With him stationed in Heaven Dou City, Eternal Kingdom could not bypass him to strike the Spirit Pagoda Headquarters. Detonating it directly was the only way to cut their losses in time!

"Wishful thinking!"

The powers of two Silver Dragon King Bloodlines resonated. The Black and White Duo flew toward each other, silver light surging as overwhelming dragon might erupted!

Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena descended!

Gu Yuena paid little attention to the Radiant Sun Heavenly Qin. The Dragon God Core floated in the sky, while the Silver Dragon Spear became a streak of silver radiance that tore through space and pointed directly at Long Yeyue. The absolute suppression of bloodline made Long Yeyue's entire body stiffen, and her Soul Power circulated sluggishly with great difficulty!

Another overwhelming dragon might erupted from the side. The Black Dragon Sword suppressed the Emperor God Sword as Di Tian extended his left hand. A pitch-black dragon claw, Covering the Sky and Sun, gathered in the air. Its scales were cold and grim, its talons glimmering with dark light as it reached for the massive rose-red cannon holding Eternal Kingdom!

Before her was the Silver Dragon Spear, behind her the Beast God's dragon claw. By sheer coincidence, both possessed a father-like oppression over the Light Darkness Twin Sacred Dragon. Under the dual bloodline deterrence of the Silver Dragon King and Gold-eyed Black Dragon King, Long Yeyue's mind instantly lost all resistance and collapsed.

Her Four-Word Battle Armor exploded, then she Ignited the Light Darkness Dragon Blood Inside the body. Though her skin was aged and her body frail, blazing flames of survival still burned in Long Yeyue's eyes. She abandoned Eternal Kingdom and, at any cost, tore open the slightest gap in the dragon might before fleeing into the distance without looking back. She was so fast that even Di Tian stared in astonishment!

I cannot die. I absolutely cannot Perish Together with them. I am the Sea God Pavilion Master, carrying Shrek's Twenty Thousand Years of glory. If I die, there will be nothing left...

And Xin Jie's blood debt. I have to live and avenge him!

While fleeing in panic, Long Yeyue quickly convinced the terrified coward within her heart. As the saying goes, as long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood to burn. She was not a coward fleeing from battle—this was a tactical retreat to preserve hope!

She would definitely return!

"Long Yeyue, holy fucking shit!"

The War God Hall's War Gods and the Tang Sect powerhouses turned their heads for a look. Where was the Long Yeyue in whom they Had high hopes!?

Long Yeyue had already vanished without a trace!

The battlefield erupted with a chorus of curses. No one had expected such a dramatic scene. As the coalition's strongest fighter, Long Yeyue was Shrek's Sea God Pavilion Master, the Tang Sect Strategic Partner, Vast Sea Douluo Chen Xin Jie's former lover, and the Sister-in-law acknowledged by the War God Hall's War Gods!

Yet she was precisely the one who had lost the courage to go to Huang Quan together. The power gained by detonating her Four-Word Battle Armor had all been used to flee!

"Hall Master, you entrusted the wrong person!"

The Dragon God Core released seven-colored radiance and immobilized the Radiant Sun Heavenly Qin. Gu Yuena gripped the Silver Dragon Spear in both hands, its tip piercing through the two War Gods who would Die with Regret.

The swords shattered and their wielders perished. Di Tian killed the Emperor God Twin Swords, then took out the Eternal Kingdom that would determine the continent's fate with his dragon claw and presented it to Gu Yuena. He lowered his voice and pleaded guilty:

"This subordinate is incompetent. I was careless for a moment and let that woman escape."

"You were restricted in human form. It is not your fault." Gu Yuena said softly, "Long Yeyue's speed when fleeing truly was too fast.

"For one moment, she was god-tier."

Di Tian nodded deeply in agreement, then turned and continued slaughtering the enemies who resisted stubbornly. A quarter of an hour later, an executive from the Heaven Dou City Spirit Pagoda Branch stepped forward to report.

"Reporting to the Pagoda Master, the main battle faction has been completely eliminated. Only a group of Tang Sect disciples with weak combat strength remains, most of them researchers and logistical personnel."

"Guard them closely. Xuanzhen's side has also ended..."
