Ten minutes later, all 140 million people across Douluo Continent had fallen silent.
Because more than half of the one hundred Chosen Ones had already died, demonstrating all manner of bizarre deaths to Douluo Continent...
Some Chosen Ones appeared in the wilderness and, for some unknown reason, turned into a cloud of blood;
Some Chosen Ones got off to a bad start, falling into a wolf den and being torn limb from limb alive;
Some Chosen Ones fell straight into a lake, their flesh and bones melting away in an instant without a trace;
Some Chosen Ones were walking along when they were suddenly swallowed whole by a giant mouth;
Some Chosen Ones were blasted into chunks of flesh by an inexplicable shockwave;
Some Chosen Ones walked through the center of a town and, merely because they watched children playing, had their heads pierced by stones thrown by the children;
Some Chosen Ones...
What shocked the powerhouses of Douluo Continent most was the way Soul Emperor Miles died!
Just moments ago, Miles had been swept into the air by the wind stirred up by a massive black shadow flying overhead, then splattered into a mess when he hit the ground!
In an instant, all of Douluo Continent erupted.
"Damn, damn, damn! What was that thing just now?!"
"So huge, it was really too huge!"
"I-I only saw a black shadow, but terror flooded my heart in an instant!"
"That shadow was probably at least ten thousand meters long!"
"Even those enormous Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts would probably be nothing more than food before that monster, right?"
"The legendary Deep Sea Demonic Whale King is a thousand meters long, but before that giant beast, it could only be called a small fish!"
"Is this the danger of the Mysterious Land? The ordinary people are practically all dead, and even a Soul Emperor did not survive for long!"
"I do not care how many died, nor do I want to know what level of powerhouse died. I just want to know what that monster was!"
"I could not see it clearly, but it was terrifying even across worlds!"
"Yeah, that monster was not only enormous, it also gave off an utterly terrifying feeling!"
"I do not even know whether I would have the courage to attack in front of that monster..."
"Hahaha, you are quite funny, kid."
In just ten minutes, nearly ninety percent of the ordinary people among the one hundred Chosen Ones had died. Only one blacksmith had been taken in by a village and luckily escaped the jaws of a snake.
However, there was also one piece of good news. At least during the past ten minutes, aside from the unlucky Miles, none of the remaining Soul Masters had died yet!
"Too terrifying, this is simply too terrifying! That mysterious voice just threw people around at random? Could it not gather them in one safe place?"
"As expected, that damned mysterious voice really does not treat people like people!"
"This world is far too terrifying. Its combat power is outrageously high!"
"Yeah, even if this entire wave gets wiped out, I would say that is normal."
Wiped out...
At that moment, everyone across Douluo Continent sank into endless silence.
"San Ge! Look! Look at Master Xiao Gang!"
At Shrek Academy, Xiao Wu had originally been helping Tang San rest on a bench by the roadside when she suddenly pointed excitedly at Yu Xiaogang's Light Screen and cried out in alarm.
A towering mountain range appeared on the Light Screen, stretching endlessly into the distance, so vast that its end could not be seen.
"This mountain range is far too huge. Any one of its peaks feels bigger than the Star Dou Great Forest."
Xiao Wu could not help sighing. As a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, the Soft Bone Rabbit, from the Star Dou Great Forest, she naturally knew its size well. Yet when she saw the endless giant mountain range on the Light Screen, she felt utterly stunned.
Huge—far too huge. It was so vast that there was no end in sight!
Moreover, every tree visible to the naked eye soared into the clouds, several times larger than even the biggest trees in the Star Dou Great Forest!
Everything in this Mysterious Land was too enormous, so enormous that it completely defied common sense!
"Will Master be all right?"
Looking at Yu Xiaogang on the Light Screen, who seemed equally shocked by the sight before him, Tang San asked worriedly.
"I do not know. I hope Master will be all right. Huh? San Ge, why is Master trembling? He seems to be glowing too?"
At that moment, a burst of light erupted from Yu Xiaogang's body as Tang San and Xiao Wu spoke of him. Immediately afterward, his beast Martial Soul, Luo Sanpao—dog-like in appearance and pig-like in build—appeared of its own accord. In the next instant, it too began to shine, and its form gradually changed!
Roar—!
With an angry roar from Luo Sanpao, its body grew at an astonishing speed. Large patches of diamond-shaped scales emerged across its chubby body, solid, well-defined muscles bulged outward, and its frame continuously expanded. Two majestic dragon horns burst from its head as pale golden light surged forth, constantly rippling around its body!
In only a few breaths, Luo Sanpao's body had expanded to a length of one hundred meters. In the next moment, the scales on its back exploded apart, and a pair of enormous dragon wings that blotted out the sky unfurled. Its formerly foolish-looking eyes turned into gleaming golden dragon pupils, making it appear incomparably majestic and domineering.
The current Luo Sanpao was no longer that bizarre thing resembling both a pig and a dog. It had become a majestic golden dragon, dazzling and magnificent!
Yu Xiaogang was dumbfounded. Although that person had said that his beast Martial Soul, Luo Sanpao, was not a malignant mutation of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, but rather a beneficial mutation whose evolution had been interrupted halfway due to some unknown factor, seeing Luo Sanpao transform into the Golden Holy Dragon without merging with Liu Erlong's Crimson Dragon Martial Soul and Flender's Cat Eagle Martial Soul still left him in disbelief. He nearly cried.
Who knew how many disdainful looks he had suffered because of his useless Martial Soul? He had even been expelled from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan because of it. Now, at last, he could prove that he was not useless!
Still, the Golden Holy Dragon produced through fusion in the past had seemed to be only twenty meters long. How had it now grown to nearly one hundred meters?
Yu Xiaogang had initially thought the mutation would end there, but he had not expected that this was only the beginning. He could clearly feel a strange force crazily drilling into his body. Specks of blood began seeping from the surface of his skin, and this power was close to bursting him apart!
As expected of a theory Master, Yu Xiaogang's mind was quick. He immediately understood what was happening. It was like suddenly dropping a bead of clear water into ink; without question, the clear water would be stained and assimilated by the ink in the blink of an eye.
That was precisely his current situation. He had suddenly arrived in this world from Douluo Continent. To this world, he was like a blank droplet of clear water that had suddenly been added, while the surrounding ink naturally surged toward him until he too was dyed black.
But this power was simply astonishingly strong—terrifyingly strong!
Although he roughly understood why this was happening, Yu Xiaogang could not feel happy about it at all.
The power of this world was far too great, so great that his currently frail body could barely withstand it...
If he could not endure it, then there was a ninety percent chance that he would turn into a firework of flesh and blood, exploding with a bang...
Just as Yu Xiaogang was about to reach his limit, the terrifying power that had been rampaging through his body suddenly seemed to find an outlet and crazily surged toward the newly evolved Golden Holy Dragon!
Rumble—!
A muffled thunderclap rang out. Centered on Yu Xiaogang and his Golden Holy Dragon, which had evolved into a mutated version, fallen leaves within a hundred meters began spinning continuously around them as though controlled by an invisible force. The surrounding Heaven and Earth Essence poured toward the man and his Martial Soul like water into a funnel!
No one knew how long passed. When the dust finally settled, Yu Xiaogang was completely stunned!
Damn it, he had never felt this good before!
Washed by this special power, his Soul Power, which had been stuck at level 29, soared to level 50. Not only that, even the quality of his Soul Power underwent an enormous transformation!
If his original Soul Power had been cotton, then his current Soul Power was developing in the direction of a Divine Weapon. He even vaguely felt that once his Soul Power completed its evolution, he alone would be able to fight a Soul Douluo or even a somewhat weaker Title Douluo!
This was not like when he, Liu Erlong, and Flender fused their three Martial Souls into the Golden Holy Dragon and briefly contended against a Soul Douluo or even a Title Douluo. This was a genuine fight against a Soul Douluo or even a Title Douluo without even using his Martial Soul!
This world's power system was probably terrifying beyond imagination!
