Killing the Dark Bell, I Advance to Level 97 Super Douluo

The white light gradually dissipated, yet the violent, destructive aura that permeated the heavens and earth refused to settle for a long time.

Above the former site of Shrek Academy, a scar that seemed impossible to heal had been torn open across the sky.

The once-level ground had been transformed into a bottomless, vitrified crater.

The surrounding air twisted violently due to the extreme heat.

There were no screams, and there was no blood.

The high and mighty, arrogant Third Heavenly King of the Holy Spirit Cult, Dark Bell, along with her terrifying ninety-eighth-rank cultivation and her hundred-foot-tall Avatar of the Martial Soul, had been completely erased from this world.

Sitting in the cockpit of the Vanguard Titan, Luo Feng watched with satisfaction as the red dot on his radar screen vanished entirely.

At this moment, his mind was flooded with a barrage of pleasant system notifications, as if he were celebrating a festival:

[Ding! Detected that a high-value target's vital signs have reached zero!]

[Congratulations, Ironclad, for successfully killing a ninety-eighth-rank Evil Soul Master (Third Heavenly King of the Holy Spirit Cult)—Dark Bell—while at a lower rank!]

[Ding! You have obtained a massive amount of God-level pure soul power experience!]

[Current soul power experience bar is full, breaking through...]

[Congratulations, your soul power level has increased by two ranks! Current soul power level: 97 (Super Douluo)!]

[Ding! The material decomposition analysis progress for the Level 12 God-Slaying Soul Guidance Cannon has increased significantly. Current total progress: 65%!]

She had witnessed with her own eyes as Dark Bell turned into nothingness, unable to withstand even a single second against those three Level 10 Soul Guidance Cannons.

The Dark Phoenix, who had once made countless people tremble in fear, now looked at the steel behemoth slowly approaching her with nothing but primal terror and collapse in her eyes.

Her delicate body trembled uncontrollably, and even though the electric net had scorched her skin, she bit her lip tightly, not daring to make a single sound.

"Hiss!"

With the sound of a pressure valve releasing, the armor on the chest of the Vanguard Titan slowly opened.

Luo Feng leaped from the cockpit, landed steadily on the ground, and walked with a relaxed gait toward his "trophy."

Just as Luo Feng prepared to tease this long-legged royal sister, several sharp whistling sounds came from behind him.

"Lord Luo Feng, please wait!"

Tang Wulin, holding the phantom of the Sea God Trident, rushed over with a murderous expression.

Beside him followed a beautiful woman of noble temperament, though her eyes were currently bloodshot and her body surged with killing intent.

It was none other than one of the pillars of Shrek Academy, the Holy Spirit Douluo—Ya Li!

"Oh? Sect Master Tang, Senior Holy Spirit, what is this..."

Luo Feng stopped and looked at the two of them with a faint, mocking smile.

Ya Li stared fixedly at the Dark Phoenix trapped in the net, her chest heaving violently.

Her voice carried an unconcealable grief and hatred.

"Luo Feng, thank you for killing Dark Bell. However, this woman... please, you must hand her over to us at Shrek for interrogation!"

"That's right."

Tang Wulin also stepped forward, his eyes cold and piercing.

"The Holy Spirit Cult destroyed our academy and killed Pavilion Master Yun Ming. This blood debt is something Shrek will never forget! Now that we have finally captured one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Holy Spirit Cult, we must pry her mouth open and dig out all their hideouts and conspiracies!"

Looking at the unyielding gazes of Tang Wulin and Ya Li, Luo Feng shrugged and smiled indifferently.

"Suit yourselves. Her soul power has already been sealed by my lightning net; she's just an ordinary woman with no strength left. Ask her whatever you want, but don't kill her. I still have use for her—she's my pre-booked full-time maid."

Upon hearing the word "maid," the Dark Phoenix in the net bit her teeth in humiliation, but she didn't dare to utter a single word of rebuttal.

Ya Li took a deep breath, suppressed the emotions in her heart, and walked slowly toward the metal net.

The holy light of healing on her body now appeared incomparably cold, like the blade of judgment.

"Dark Phoenix, or... should I call you the younger sister of the Spirit Pagoda's Vice Pagoda Master?"

Ya Li's first sentence exploded like a bombshell in the ears of Tang Wulin and the others!

"What?"

Tang Wulin was shocked and turned his head abruptly to look at the woman in the net.

"She is from the Spirit Pagoda!"

The Dark Phoenix's delicate body shuddered violently.

A flicker of panic flashed through the eyes hidden beneath her disheveled hair, but she still stubbornly turned her head away:

"I don't know what you're talking about!

Falling into your hands is my bad luck, so do whatever you want—kill me or torture me!"

"Heh, quite a backbone, aren't you?"

Luo Feng sneered and snapped his fingers.

"BT, turn up the intensity for her."

[Acknowledged, Pilot.

Electromagnetic Restraint Net output increased to 15%. Initiating Neural Pain Simulation.]

"Zzzzt!"

The dark gold metal net instantly erupted with blinding blue-white electric arcs.

This current did not damage her physical body; instead, it acted directly upon her nerve endings, amplifying her sense of pain by dozens of times!

"Ahhh!!"

The Dark Phoenix let out a scream of extreme agony.

She curled into a ball within the net, cold sweat instantly soaking through her tattered leather outfit.

After it had lasted for less than five seconds, Luo Feng raised his hand to signal a stop.

"That was just an appetizer."

Luo Feng crouched down, looking at her pale face through the metal mesh.

"That companion of yours who played with bells didn't even leave behind a pile of ash.

I have ten thousand ways to make you wish you were dead but unable to die.

Speak. Tell me every detail of how that old fox Qiangu Dongfeng hired you!"

Under the fear of death, the psychological trauma of seeing her companion obliterated, and Luo Feng's merciless torture, the psychological defenses of this once high-and-mighty Heavenly King finally collapsed completely.

"Don't... don't shock me anymore... I'll talk... I'll tell you everything..."

The Dark Phoenix gasped for air, tears and sweat streaming down her face, her voice trembling uncontrollably.

"It was Qiangu Dongfeng... He was the one who took the initiative to contact Lord Underworld Emperor..."

"Qiangu Dongfeng's grandson, Qiangu Zhangting, was killed by you (she cast a terrified glance at Luo Feng) in the East Sea.

He couldn't find direct evidence of your involvement, and he didn't dare to openly mobilize the Spirit Pagoda's army, so...

So he privately used the highest-level single-line communication channel to reach out to us, the Holy Spirit Cult."

As these words fell, the entire room plunged into dead silence.

Tang Wulin's fists clenched until they creaked, his nails digging deep into his palms as blood dripped from between his fingers.

Ya Li was trembling with rage, her eyes filled with disbelief and extreme fury:

"The dignified Tower Master of the Spirit Pagoda, the leader of one of the Federation's top powers, actually... actually colluded with Evil Soul Masters?!"

"That's not all..."

In order to survive, the Dark Phoenix no longer cared about any confidentiality agreements, spilling all the inside information like beans from a bag.

"To show his sincerity, Qiangu Dongfeng not only provided us with your precise landing route and coordinates on the Douluo Continent, but even...

Even shut down the surveillance of three large-scale soul beast reserves along the East Sea coast for two hours."
