Rows upon rows of crystal vats were filled with countless identical-looking young girls—all of them possessed long, powder-blue hair and exquisite features, yet they were devoid of any life.
These were replicas of Xiao Qi, or perhaps failed experiments created by Tang San in order to perfect his "ten-thousand-year grand plan."
"What... what is this?" Bei Bei shouted in horror within Shrek Academy.
In the center of the laboratory, a massive, dark-red magic array was slowly rotating, with countless evil incantations twisting in the void, emitting a nauseating stench of blood.
Sky Screen Prompt: Super-God level forbidden technique detected--Blood River God-Slaying Array (core prototype).
"Blood River God-Slaying Array..."
Electrolux stepped forward, his expression turning grave. "This is a formation that uses the blood of billions of living beings as a catalyst, attempting to devour the plane's will. It seems that the so-called 'Sea God ancestor' of your world is not protecting the continent at all."
"If I am not mistaken, he is treating the entire Douluo Continent as his own blood-food factory. Once the time is ripe, he will select one or two suitable vessel spirits to turn the entire planetary plane into his divine domain."
Around the magic array, there were also many evil artifacts that appeared suitable for Evil Soul Masters: the Hundred Ghost Banner capable of imprisoning souls, the Death God Skull filled with malevolence...
"Haha, so this is the so-called 'Sea God ancestor,' the so-called number one sect in the world? What hidden guardian?"
Huo Yuhao sneered, collecting these items one by one into his storage Soul Tool. "If these things appeared in the hands of Evil Soul Masters, Shrek would likely scream about justice while exterminating them. But when they appear in the Clear Sky Sect, they are divine gifts?"
The people outside the Sky Screen fell into complete silence. If the previous critiques were merely calling Tang San selfish, this scene had thoroughly nailed him to the pillar of shame as an "Evil God."
Huo Yuhao turned around and pressed his hand into the void toward the magnificent main hall of the Clear Sky Sect.
"BOOM--!!!"
The entire Clear Sky Peak emitted a teeth-gritting cracking sound under the pressure of the ice mountain that suddenly descended. Then, under the gaze of the masses, this mountain that had stood for ten thousand years completely collapsed and disintegrated, turning into a pile of ruins.
After returning to the Body Sect, Huo Yuhao did not rest.
Under the guidance of Electrolux, he initiated an unprecedented "Artifact Reforging Project."
Those evil artifacts confiscated from the Clear Sky Sect, under the baptism of Life Gold and necromantic magic, shed their bloody, malevolent aura and unexpectedly radiated a brilliant golden and silver glow.
"This piece shall be named the Body God-Suppressing Cauldron, used to suppress the fortune of my Body Sect for ten thousand years!"
Huo Yuhao struck the reforged divine cauldron into the ley lines of the sect.
"The remaining three..."
Huo Yuhao looked toward the west, the pinnacle of the continent's Soul Tool technology, the current ruler of the entire Douluo Continent, and the location of the core power that had once destroyed the Body Sect's headquarters.
A few years ago, the Sun Moon Empire's Soul Tool legions, the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Masters, and the elders of Shrek Academy had acted together to severely wound the Body Sect, leaving his teacher Du Busi still recovering from his injuries.
He had also promised to help the Heaven Dou Empire princess Vina take revenge; now, she was carrying his child, and in the future, this child would become the new master of the Heaven Dou Empire... no, the reunified Heaven Dou Empire.
And the Sun Moon Empire was the only stumbling block remaining.
"Ming Capital, Xu Tianran."
Huo Yuhao was draped in a silver robe, with three divine artifacts hovering behind him, emitting a terrifying pressure that caused the firmament to change color.
"Let's go. Let us see if the technology of this era can withstand the fury of the Body Sect. The Sun Moon Empire, and indeed the entire continent, is due for a change in ownership."
Following Huo Yuhao's command, countless Body Sect disciples soared into the sky, blotting out the sun.
Outside the Sky Screen, amidst the shocked gazes of countless people on the Douluo Continent.
After the youth, who stood like an emperor, gave his order, the war machine of the Body Sect that had been dormant for years was fully activated.
Thousands of Body Sect disciples, led by Du Busi and Huo Yuhao, turned into streaks of light and charged straight toward the heart of the Sun Moon Empire—Ming Capital.
"Look! Is that the entire foundation of the Body Sect?"
Outside the Sky Screen, Star Luo Emperor Xu Jiawei gasped. He had never seen the Body Sect mobilize on such a scale, and even more terrifyingly, the oppressive aura emitted by that force surpassed any Soul Tool legion he had ever seen.
However, the people of the Sun Moon Empire sneered.
"That is Ming Capital! It has the most rigorous detection Soul Tool array on the entire continent; even a fly flying in would trigger a concentrated fire of Level 9 Soul Tool rays!"
Jing Hongchen clenched his fists outside the Sky Screen. Although it was a parallel world, he did not believe the Body Sect could infiltrate it silently.
But the next second, the scene on the Sky Screen left all the Soul Masters on the continent speechless.
Huo Yuhao stood in the clouds, the Moon Eye at the center of his brow emitting a silver, ghostly light. Ripples that were nearly transparent spread from him as the center, enveloping the entire army.
God-level Domain: Myriad Manifestations: Void Concealment!
On the monitoring screens of the Sun Moon Empire, there was nothing but void. Radar waves passed through their bodies, and thermal sensors only detected the movement of the air.
"This is impossible!"
Outside the Sky Screen, desperate roars erupted from within Mingde Hall.
"That is the ultimate application of spiritual power; he has synchronized everyone's spiritual fluctuations with the atmosphere! In the 'eyes' of the Soul Tools, they simply do not exist!"
Kong Deming's aged body trembled violently. The technology he took such pride in was as fragile as a thin sheet of paper in the face of a God-level spiritual domain.
Just like that, the Body Sect army, like ghosts in the middle of the night, crossed the heavy defensive lines without a sound and appeared directly above the Ming Capital imperial palace.
At this moment, the palace was brightly lit.
The crippled Xu Tianran sat in his wheelchair, speaking spiritedly to Ju Zi and his loyal ministers about his grand plan for unification.
"BOOM--!"
A massive silver cauldron shadow descended from the sky, slamming heavily onto the palace's defensive barrier.
[God-Slaying Halberd: Fall of the Mortal World!]
The linked defensive barrier, originally capable of withstanding Level 9 fixed soul cannon fire, shattered like glass the instant it collided with the divine halberd. Amidst the sky-filling shards of golden light, Huo Yuhao, draped in silver robes, descended like a god arriving in the mortal realm, swooping down with boundless killing intent.
"Xu Tianran, it is time to settle your debts."
"Enemy attack! Protect His Majesty!"
The shrill sound of alarms instantly echoed throughout Ming Capital.
Outside the Sky Screen, the people of the Sun Moon Empire were now terrified to the extreme.
"That is the imperial palace! This Prince's imperial palace! Even the people from Shrek Academy have never broken into this place in all of history."
Watching himself on the screen as he tumbled from his wheelchair in fright, Xu Tianran gritted his teeth until they rattled.
