The entire area fell silent.
Even the four members of the Holy Spirit Cult instinctively stopped.
"This... how is this possible!"
Zhongli Wu's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief. "That's a Soul Skill that instantly weakens all physical and Soul Power attacks by seventy percent!"
As the leader of the Holy Spirit Cult, he naturally knew about Wu Yun's extremely special Soul Skill.
Even if Zhongli Wu used all his strength, he wouldn't be able to inflict fatal damage on Wu Yun within those five seconds. At most, he could only injure him.
Wu Yun, who had used such a life-saving skill, was instantly killed from a distance!
How could this be possible!
However, the facts were laid out before Zhongli Wu, leaving him no choice but to believe.
The Heavenly Dao Emperor didn't pause. With a few strides, he arrived in front of the Bone Dragon.
As a dragon race that had received the grace of the Silver Dragon King, a clone of the Dragon God, even with only its dragon soul remaining, its perception of danger was extremely keen.
Therefore, the Bone Dragon, sensing how terrifying the person before it was, instinctively felt fear even under Zhongli Wu's control. It even wanted to turn and flee.
"The Bone Dragon King actually feels fear!"
Zhongli Wu's face showed horror as he realized this.
More than half of the ten years Zhongli Wu spent capturing this Bone Dragon was used to erase the dragon soul's self-awareness.
Only then could Zhongli Wu be at ease with the dragon soul connecting with his mind and becoming a part of his body.
Logically speaking, the Bone Dragon King, without self-awareness, shouldn't feel fear.
Everything that was happening now completely overturned Zhongli Wu's understanding.
Zhongli Wu also knew that he couldn't let the Bone Dragon King escape like this.
Otherwise, under that power, which seemed boundless, there was a high chance they would all be wiped out here.
Zhongli Wu certainly wasn't afraid of death. In fact, no one in the Holy Spirit Cult was afraid of death. But they didn't want to die so meaninglessly.
Crow Douluo was already dead. If they lost these four core members, even the mighty Holy Spirit Cult would likely suffer a severe blow.
If that happened, and if it weren't for the presence of the two Limit Douluo, Long Xiaoyao and Ye Xishui, in the Holy Spirit Cult, the Holy Spirit Cult would probably fall into decline even without Gu Tian's future intervention.
Of course, completely eradicating the Holy Spirit Cult was almost impossible.
As long as Evil Soul Masters existed on the Douluo Continent, the Holy Spirit Cult would rise again.
Even in the Ultimate Douluo era, the Holy Spirit Cult, though seemingly gone, had actually become the intelligence department of the Douluo Federation's Dou Tian Department.
Furthermore, the Holy Spirit Cult in this era could only be considered to be just showing its edge.
The true peak of this organization, composed of Evil Soul Masters, would be ten thousand years later.
At that time, although the Holy Spirit Cult's scale wouldn't be as vast as it was now, and its organizational structure would change to one Emperor, two Kings, and four Dark Heavenly Kings.
However, all of them would be top-tier powerhouses, including a Rank 100 True God without a divine position, three demigod-level powerhouses, and at the very least, Rank 97 Attack-type Super Douluo.
"It's about time for a warm-up!" Zhongli Wu muttered softly.
As soon as he finished speaking, his body suddenly shone brightly, and the Bone Dragon King turned black again.
At the same time, blue and red colors appeared in the sky above.
Balls of blue flaming meteors condensed in mid-air.
Streams of green wind appeared, fanning the flames!
In the next instant, balls of blue flaming meteors, like launched cannonballs, bombarded the Heavenly Dao Emperor.
The continuous offensive filled the air within a hundred-mile radius with the smell of burning.
This also caused the entire palace to explode, the terrifying pressure making it difficult to breathe.
This move was called Wind Fire Meteor.
It was one of the Bone Dragon King's most powerful killing moves.
Its power was so great that even the Limit Douluo at the peak of this world had to concentrate all their strength and be cautious, even needing to use their Martial Soul True Body to ensure their safety.
However, just like before, a flash of golden light flickered around the Heavenly Dao Emperor.
The flying blue meteors were instantly annihilated, leaving no trace behind.
The next moment, what greeted the Bone Dragon King was a powerful punch.
"Boom!"
The Bone Dragon King couldn't withstand this immense force. The punch shot out from its back.
It was instantly pulverized into dust!
"Ah!" Zhongli Wu screamed, blood spewing from his mouth.
The dragon soul was connected to Zhongli Wu's mind, essentially becoming a part of his body.
The Emperor Armor instantly destroyed his Bone Dragon King.
This also meant that he was instantly heavily injured.
The Bone Dragon King's demise was within Zhongli Wu's expectations.
His original plan was to sacrifice a pawn to save the king.
But what he never expected was that the Bone Dragon King, with its immense power, couldn't even withstand a single blow from the Heavenly Dao Emperor.
Zhongli Wu stopped in mid-air, his gaze towards the Heavenly Dao Emperor filled with fear and malice.
That golden armor, like an emperor's, was truly terrifying, and it was extremely effective against Evil Soul Masters.
Yet, he was unwilling to give up just like that.
Of course, he could tell that this wasn't Gu Tian's true strength.
Such immense power couldn't possibly be used without limit!
"Go." Zhongli Wu willed it, and the light barrier vanished instantly.
At the same time, a blinding light erupted from his body.
Then, he transformed into a black meteor, fleeing towards the distance.
The other three didn't hesitate, their Soul Power erupting as they chose to escape immediately.
The Emperor Armor looked up at the four fleeing figures, making no move.
Just as everyone present was filled with confusion, the Emperor Armor dissolved into specks of light, revealing a handsome young man.
It was Gu Tian.
"To not have wiped out all the Holy Spirit Cult members, they're lucky!"
Looking at the four Holy Spirit Cult members escaping, Gu Tian pouted in displeasure.
It was a shame that Gu Tian himself hadn't been controlling the Emperor Armor just now; otherwise, he would never have let those four who wanted to take his life get away.
This was the Heavenly Dao Substitute!
Only when Gu Tian's life was in danger would the Emperor Armor manifest to protect its master.
After the danger was eliminated, it would disappear again.
Gu Tian himself hadn't lost consciousness; he was merely in a spectator state throughout the entire process, unable to interfere with the battle or speak.
As for whether the Ultimate Emperor Armor itself possessed self-awareness or simply acted on instinct to eliminate enemies, Gu Tian was unsure.
What he could confirm was that no voice had communicated with him.
The inherited memories within the Five Elements Bloodline gene, a wisp of the Emperor's Divine Sense clone, the golden-finger old man system, and Old Man Shenshan had all not appeared.
This also left Gu Tian somewhat disappointed, as if Old Man Shenshan had been there, he could have learned all of Huaxia's martial arts from ancient times to the present, as well as the usage of all eighteen types of weapons.
The improvement to his combat ability would have been self-evident!
