Time slipped away, second by second, amidst the fierce collision of light and blood-souls.

Mu En's heart, however, sank deeper and deeper as the time flowed by.

He could clearly perceive that under his own storm-like offensive, only three or four of the twelve vengeful spirits surrounding Ye Xishui had dissipated.

Although her physical form had suffered some depletion and her aura had withered, she was far from being mortally wounded.

Beyond the madness and resentment in her eyes, a hint of unperturbed mockery even began to emerge.

It has dragged on too long! A rare flash of impatience stirred in Mu En's heart.

This was not Shrek, nor was it anywhere within the three kingdoms of the continent; it was Ming Capital, the capital of the Sun Moon Empire! It was the very heart of the enemy nation!

Sure enough, at that very moment.

"Chi-chi-chi-chi--!"

Without warning, tens of thousands of Soul Guidance Rays, like a suddenly awakened swarm of bees, shot out from every direction of Ming Capital!

They tore through the night sky, weaving into a destructive web of death that blanketed the sky, shrouding the space where Mu En stood!

Arriving along with them was an aged voice.

"Who dares to act wantonly in Ming Capital?!"

Before the voice had even faded, several figures tore through the clouds above Ming Capital and slowly ascended into the air.

They were not riding flight-type Soul Tools, but were standing in the void by relying on their own vast soul power.

The soul power fluctuations radiating from each of them were like lighthouses in the dark night—peerless and tyrannical. They were all top-tier existences at the Title Douluo level!

Mu En's gaze was like lightning, sweeping across them in an instant, and he understood the situation at once.

These individuals were all elites among the Level 9 Soul Engineers of the Sun Moon Empire. With the augmentation of their Soul Tools and their own cultivation, the combat capability of each one was in no way inferior to a Super Douluo!

However, what truly caused Mu En's pupils to constrict and his sense of danger to soar was the figure standing at the very front of the group.

The man was tall and sturdy, with short, grayish-white hair standing on end, and he wore a bright yellow robe.

Silver Moon Douluo, Kong Deming!

The true titan in the field of Soul Tools for the Sun Moon Empire, the existence closest to the level of a Level 10 Soul Engineer in the current age, and the pillar that kept the Sun Moon Empire standing firm!

Mu En looked at them, especially when his gaze fell upon Kong Deming, and his brows furrowed.

If it were one-on-one, he was confident he was stronger than anyone present.

Even against the unfathomable Kong Deming, he was certain he could emerge victorious.

But there were simply too many people now. The others were fine; at most, they could only serve as a distraction.

The real trouble was still Kong Deming.

The aura radiating from him told Mu En that this was a powerhouse truly approaching the strength of a Limit Douluo.

His true combat power might not be equal to his own current peak state after consuming the immortal herb, but he absolutely possessed the qualifications to engage him head-on and hold his own for a long time!

Knowing that the Sun Moon Empire and the Holy Spirit Cult were in a cooperative relationship, Mu En naturally would not think these people had ascended to help him.

Their goal could only be to join forces with Ye Xishui and completely eliminate him, this sudden and massive threat!

In other words, he had to fight all these powerhouses alone.

Thinking of this, a long-lost, burning fighting spirit rose in Mu En's heart instead.

He secretly rejoiced: Fortunately, that old friend of mine has not appeared at this moment.

Otherwise, I would truly have to consider how to escape unscathed today.

As for now.

Mu En took a deep breath, and the aura around him, which had been slightly impatient due to his inability to secure a quick victory, instantly returned to a state of condensation and solemnity.

The phantom of brilliant golden dragon scales flickered on his skin, and his Domain of Light did not shrink; instead, it expanded violently outward.

The intensity of its power was such that it threatened to shroud the several newly arrived powerhouses as well!

"Since you have come..."

Mu En's voice was not loud, yet it clearly reached the ears of every powerhouse present.

Beneath the calm lay a world-dominating arrogance.

"...then let us learn from one another together."

"Roar--!"

Following this was a dragon's roar that shook the heavens!

Without waiting for the enemy to complete their encirclement, Mu En took the initiative to include all the powerhouses, including Kong Deming and Ye Xishui, within his range of attack!

The phantom of the Bright Sacred Dragon raised its head and roared, unleashing a destructive shockwave in all directions without discrimination!

"Arrogant!" A brilliant light surged in Kong Deming's eyes as he let out a cold shout.

He raised his right hand into the void and pointed it from afar toward the direction where Mu En stood.

"Hum--!"

A point of light, brilliant to the extreme, shot out from his fingertip!

The light point was no larger than a grain of rice at first, but it swelled violently against the wind as it flew.

In an instant, it transformed into a massive golden ring over three meters in diameter, enveloping the figure of Mu En!

Mu En's gaze narrowed; the sensation this ring gave him was completely different from traditional soul skills.

He did not choose to meet it head-on, his body flickering with a faint golden light.

He seemed to transform into a zigzagging ray of light, "sliding" past the edge of the ring by a hair's breadth at the very last moment.

While evading the ring, Mu En's counterattack had already arrived!

He struck out with a backhand palm that appeared casual, devoid of earth-shattering momentum, carrying only a palm print of translucent gold condensed to the extreme.

It arrived before the opponent's strike could land, imprinting itself instantly before Kong Deming!

"BOOM—!"

The palm print collided solidly with the silver light shield that had instantly manifested before Kong Deming!

Blinding golden light and silver radiance clashed frantically, emitting a teeth-grinding sound of shattering.

The outer layer of the light shield shattered in response, leaving only a shallow, thin film behind.

This level nine defensive Soul Tool was nearly half-ruined!

Kong Deming let out a muffled groan, his figure sent flying backward uncontrollably for dozens of meters, the silver light around him fluctuating violently.

After just one tentative exchange, a stormy sea had already risen in Kong Deming's heart, his expression grave as never before.

An absolute gap in strength... not something that can be easily bridged by human effort!

He made his judgment in an instant.

The soul power of this Limit Douluo before him was so pure and profound, and his comprehension and application of the rules had reached an inconceivable realm.

Let alone his current self, even if his soul power cultivation advanced further to step into the threshold of a level 95 Super Douluo, and he successfully developed the theoretical level ten Soul Tool.

He feared that even then, he would be unable to defeat this man!

"Attack together! This man is absolutely not someone one person can defeat!"

Kong Deming steadied his figure and shouted in a deep voice without hesitation.

There was no need for further words; Jing Hongchen, Ye Yulin, and several other level nine Soul Masters were already poised and ready.

Hearing the command, they scattered instantly, occupying different positions as their strongest offensive Soul Tools began to glow with charging energy.

Various destructive energy signatures, representing the crystallization of the Sun Moon Empire's highest soul technology, began to lock onto Mu En in the center of the field!

On the other side, Ye Xishui, having gained a moment to breathe, let out a venomous and frantic cackle.

Blood-colored light erupted from her eyes like a volcanic eruption!

Her originally gray-white long hair began to be dyed a bewitching, piercing blood-red from the roots at a speed visible to the naked eye, dancing wildly without any wind!

The massive phantom of the Blood Soul Demon Puppet behind her let out a silent roar and suddenly contracted inward.

Like a demon returning to its nest, it merged completely into Ye Xishui's body!
