The Past of the Holy Spirit Demon Emperor
On the altar, in the large pit.
Feeling that almost all of his bones were shattered, Long Xiaoyao looked at Zhou Huan and the Silver-haired Woman had suddenly appeared with extremely complicated expressions. His biggest question was naturally, "Where did this new Deity come from?"
Are the Deity in the Douluo Continent now so common and worthless?
He was a dignified Dragon Emperor Douluo named Xiaoyao, who roamed the Douluo Continent for two hundred years without ever seeing Deity. Unexpectedly, in his later years, one Deity after another appeared.
Moreover, the first Deity greatly despised Evil Soul Master and directly imprisoned the entire Holy Spirit Cult; the second Deity, without saying a word, suppressed them with a single glance, causing them to suffer shattered bones.
To be honest, at this moment, Long Xiaoyao suddenly felt that if he had died earlier like Mu En, he would have been better off not having such a disgraceful end, being pressed to the ground like a lump of mud.
Long Xiaoyao could only turn his gaze slightly to Ye Xishui, who was equally disheveled beside him, and weakly called out, "Xishui," with Blood One from the corner of his mouth.
No further explanation is needed; these two words already contain the deepest concern of the ultimate simp.
Besides, Long Xiaoyao didn't have the energy to waste words at this moment. As for whether or not to ask "Xi Shui, are you alright?", that would be a question only an idiot would ask.
Isn't it obvious? They were all smashed into a huge crater, and the four of them lay there like four dead dogs. How could they be alright?
Ye Xishui didn't respond at all, and didn't even look at Long Xiaoyao. Her gaze was fixed on Zhou Huan and Gu Yuena.
Clearly, even the Death Douluo, who was completely paralyzed and in a limp mess, showed no fear or submission.
Even Zhong Liwu and Feng Ling had no intention of begging for mercy, because even if they survived this attack, they would be crippled.
Most Evil Soul Master are inherently crazy or even perverted, let alone ruthless people like Zhong Liwu and Feng Ling. Knowing that they were at their wits' end, they would never beg for mercy in a humble manner. They just kept silent while spitting blood.
At this point, Gu Yuena didn't press Ye Xishui and the other three further, since they wouldn't die anytime soon anyway. So she answered Zhou Huan's question first, "It seems that something big has indeed happened."
Seeing Gu Yuena's slightly furrowed brows, Zhou Huan asked with some confusion, "What's wrong? Is there anyone in the Douluo Continent you can't deal with? That Demon Emperor you just mentioned? Don't worry, if you can't beat him, you still have me, right?"
Yes, that's right, Zhou Huan's tone was very arrogant.
After all, they're allies. Whether we go to war or not, we should still give them confidence.
However, Gu Yuena shook her head and said, "It's not that I can't defeat the Demon Emperor. He has just been resurrected, and his strength is at most at the Thirteenth Rank. But the biggest problem is that the Demon Emperor is like a slippery eel, very difficult to catch. Moreover, even if you catch him, it's almost impossible to truly kill him."
Zhou Huan blinked, somewhat confused. "What do you mean? Is the Demon Emperor really that strange? Tell me, what's the situation with the Demon Emperor?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena pondered for a moment before slowly saying, "The Demon Emperor, whose full name is the Holy Spirit Demon Emperor, lived during the era of the Great Emperor, or rather, the ancient era, which is too far removed from the present, so far that it cannot be specified in years. I can only say that at that time, the Dragon God had not yet risen to become true God King."
Zhou Huan opened his mouth, speechless, thinking to himself, "Is it really that outrageous? Can such a being still be resurrected in this day and age?"
Despite his doubts, Zhou Huan did not immediately ask any questions.
Gu Yuena continued, "In ancient times, Soul Beast weren't actually called Soul Beast; they were called demons. The Holy Spirit Demon Emperor relied on his strange cultivation techniques and physique to absorb demon blood, gradually growing to the level of Great Emperor, roughly equivalent to the current Fourteen Ranks."
"Therefore, for the Demon Race at that time, the Holy Spirit Demon Emperor was the most terrifying and the most hated being. Unfortunately, no demon could defeat the Holy Spirit Demon Emperor back then, and some even betrayed their own Holy Spirit Demon Emperor and slaughtered their own races under his rule."
"It wasn't until the Dragon God rose to power and became the God King that he killed the Holy Spirit Demon Emperor. From the time of the Dragon God onwards, the Demon Race was called Soul Beast, and the name 'demon' was changed."
"However, the Dragon God later discovered that the Holy Spirit Demon Emperor could not be completely killed, because every few million years, the Demon Emperor would be reborn. The Dragon God did not know the real reason for this. He could only kill the Dragon God Demon Emperor every time he was resurrected."
"But now that the Dragon God has fallen, only I can take action."
"Just now at the Lake of Life, I suddenly sensed the energy fluctuations of the Demon Emperor's resurrection. This aura is imprinted on my soul; I can't be mistaken."
"However, the Demon Emperor ran too fast. By the time I opened the passage and arrived here, the Demon Emperor was already gone."
Gu Yuena's explanation captivated not only Zhou Huan, but also Ye Xishui and the other three who were sprawled in the pit.
Especially Ye Xishui, although she knew about the method of resurrecting the Demon Emperor passed down by the Holy Spirit Cult, she did not know the specific deeds of the Demon Emperor, after all, the era was too long ago.
However, upon hearing that the Holy Spirit Demon Emperor was so powerful, Ye Xishui immediately revealed a smile. But in this state, the smile on her face undoubtedly made the Death Douluo appear even uglier.
Zhou Huan naturally noticed Ye Xishui's change in expression, but he was too lazy to pay attention to her. Instead, he looked at Gu Yuena and said, "Since you can sense the aura of the Holy Spirit Demon Emperor, just look for him again. He shouldn't be able to leave Douluo Star so easily, right?"
However, Gu Yuena shook her head slightly and said, "I could only sense his aura the moment he was resurrected, but now I can't find him. The Demon Emperor's cultivation method is very strange, and coupled with the fact that he is neither human nor demon, his hidden skills are outrageously strong. That's why I said he's like a slippery eel, hard to catch and hard to kill."
Zhou Huan listened and silently muttered a couple of comments, "This Demon Emperor, why does he have some of the characteristics of the Big Big Wolf? He always manages to come back alive, doesn't he?"
Gu Yuena frowned slightly, looking at Zhou Huan with some confusion, wondering why he was saying such strange things again, but she didn't ask any further questions.
Seeing this, Zhou Huan chuckled, glanced at Ye Xishui and the other three in the pit, and then asked, "What do you plan to do with them?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena's eyes turned icy as she looked at the four people in the pit. "I never expected that the Holy Spirit Cult would be inherited from the Holy Spirit Demon Emperor. I thought it was just a coincidence of names, after all, so much time has passed. Now that they have resurrected the Demon Emperor, they are naturally the mortal enemies of my Soul Beast. But before they die, we must find out the Demon Emperor's whereabouts."
