The wolf-like, dragon-like roar made every Evil Soul Master's heart sink. Old Wolf's body swelled, and his eight Soul Rings seemed somewhat dim.

He gave up all hope of survival, using the last of the Soul Power Yu Mu'en had left behind as fuel to burn. The eight Soul Rings seemed to burst into flames.

His paws, covered in black fur, stomped onto the ground. The violent tremors nearly overturned the entire earth as the massive Dragon Wolf burst through the thick dust.

At a speed too fast for anyone to react, sharp dragon claws cleaved the Evil Soul Masters surrounding the three Soul Saints in half at the waist. Old Wolf disgustedly shook the blood from his claws and roared:

"Brat, how could you bring yourself to eat this filthy trash?"

"I don't care what your soul skill is. Remember this: don't ever join forces with these Evil Soul Masters!"

The massive Dragon Wolf pressed down on the Black Blade Soul Emperor like a mountain range. The aura of a Soul Douluo locked down their ability to move. The ten Soul Kings' eyes nearly split open as they desperately unleashed their Soul Power, but it was useless.

He was not some Chicken Leg Douluo. Any Soul Douluo who let Soul Kings escape their aura lock might as well stop hanging around the Soul Douluo circle.

The Black Blade Soul Emperor wore an unwilling expression as the sharp claw light minced him into meat paste. The ten Soul Kings died beneath the claw light as well.

Seeing this, Lin En grinned. His first Soul Ring flashed, and blood threads extended from his arms, Devouring all the flesh and blood. His hollow body was filled once more.

He cracked his neck and laughed. "It's all energy. Sooner or later, I'll send these Evil Soul Masters to meet their Holy God. No, that so-called Holy God—Grandpa Lin En will mince him into meat paste too!"

The Evil Soul Masters on the ground had been completely wiped out. In the sky, the Light Sacred Dragon Martial Soul was entangled in battle with Myriad Soul Douluo and Abomination Douluo, two Titled Douluo.

As expected of the Light Sacred Dragon Martial Soul, known as the nemesis of Evil Soul Masters. Even in an extremely weakened state, with its Soul Power output suppressed to the minimum, it could still overwhelm two Evil Soul Master Titled Douluo head-on.

"Abomination, isn't that guy here yet?!"

"This opponent's a little tough!"

Myriad Soul Douluo escaped the Light Sacred Dragon's claws like a rat. Dense yin energy wrapped around his body, and a wound nearly severed him at the waist!

The evil-breaking power carried by Dragon Emperor Evil-Breaking Rend had an annihilating effect on the Soul Power of Evil Soul Masters. The wound was extremely difficult to heal.

When he and Abomination Douluo ambushed Yu Mu'en several years ago, he had suffered badly from this. It took him two full years to recover, and only the cult leader's blessing restored him completely.

Facing the dragon's roar, the nauseating, bloated giant of flesh hurled its long whip with all its strength. Hundreds of ten-meter-tall skulls shrouded in corrosive poisonous mist tore toward the pure white dragon.

The mountains along their path were Devoured completely, leaving not even dust behind. Only thick venom gathered into rivers across the ground.

This land might become a forbidden zone of life in the future, with a danger level no less than a nuclear disaster.

His own condition was not good either. Every close-range clash with the dragon was like dancing on a blade's edge.

Fortunately, the Soul Power fluctuations of the dragon before him were very low. Three years of imprisonment had already pushed it to its limit.

If it had been at full strength, Abomination Douluo would never have come without thorough preparations.

That blast of Dragon Emperor Shaking Domain Realm from three years ago was still etched into Abomination Douluo's soul. He had truly come within a hair's breadth of death! If not for the terrifying vitality granted by the Abomination Martial Soul, even ten lives would not have been enough!

"How would I know?"

"Who can say for sure whether he's coming or not?"

"You don't actually think the Holy Spirit Cult's elders are united as one, do you?"

"Why did I never realize you were this funny before?"

Abomination Douluo rolled his eyes. The Holy Spirit Cult was not the Body Sect. The relationships among the eight great elders were mediocre at best, and each had his own little faction.

Unless the cult leader or the supreme cult leader gave an order, the eight of them rarely gathered together.

Although the cult leader forbade them from killing one another, with severe punishment for violators, it was common enough for them to watch coldly as a fellow elder died.

"Hmph!"

Myriad Soul Douluo snorted coldly. His seventh and eighth Soul Rings lit up with deep, eerie light. His figure vanished, evading the glowing spheres filling the sky. A blood-red pattern appeared on the originally pitch-black Myriad Souls Banner—it was unmistakably Myriad Soul Douluo's face.

The Martial Soul Avatar of the Myriad Souls Banner was extremely unusual. Once this Martial Soul activated its Avatar, Myriad Soul Douluo became the primary soul, and both evil energy and resentment surged dramatically.

A bone-chilling domain spread out, filled with the miserable cries of countless vengeful ghosts and gusts of sinister wind. This was the Myriad Souls Domain! It was a domain that strengthened vengeful spirits and weakened enemies, as well as his eighth soul skill.

Back in the swamp, he had used this move to catch Yu Mu'en off guard, causing him to be controlled from the very beginning.

Now, using the same trick again, Yu Mu'en spread his dragon wings. Beneath those enormous wings that covered the sky, countless golden bolts of lightning brewed. The lightning was not an element, but an external manifestation of evil-breaking power.

Even Myriad Soul Douluo's soul trembled. His cultivation at Rank 91 could not suppress an Rank 88 Soul Douluo with the Light Sacred Dragon Martial Soul at all.

The lightning was about to descend. Abomination Douluo was surprisingly loyal, frantically attacking the dragon's body. Web-like cracks spread across the white dragon scales, and golden blood dripped onto the ground.

But that alone could not stop the Dragon Emperor Evil-Breaking Rend that had been gathering force. Abomination Douluo seemed to sense something, and delight filled his face. He no longer bothered with Myriad Soul Douluo, instead stomping through the air and fleeing.

At some unknown moment, the sky had become filled with dark clouds. Countless blue-black currents slithered through the black clouds, and the electrical charge between heaven and earth had reached an astonishing density.

Below, Lin En felt his hair stand on end and immediately sensed danger. His Dragon Clan Bloodline urged him to run, but with thunderclouds covering such a vast area, escape was impossible unless he could teleport through space.

Rumble!!!

A deafening clap of thunder erupted. Countless blue-black evil lightning bolts intertwined into lightning spears and descended mercilessly with the might of nature!

Within a hundred li, everything became a world of lightning. Yu Mu'en forcibly interrupted his attack, enduring Myriad Soul Douluo's counterattack below as he spread his massive dragon wings.

He knew that if this strike landed, Lin En and the others below would certainly die.

Roar!!!

The dragon's roar intertwined with the thunder. Old Wolf glanced at Lin En, Zhang Lexuan, and the others without saying anything.

The black giant wolf ignited with black flames. Its sixth soul skill shone brightly, and a piercing howl echoed through the heavens.

"Sixth Soul Skill! Shadow Exchange!"

The shadows of the dragon and black wolf converged amid the lightning. Then the dragon became the black wolf, while Yu Mu'en was switched to Old Wolf's original position.

This was a soul skill similar to Xuanming Replacement, though it had far more restrictions. For example, the two parties' shadows had to intersect when it was activated. In other words, the Dragon Wolf possessed the ability to control shadows. Otherwise, it would have been a useless soul skill.

"Old Wolf!"

A flash of sorrow passed through Yu Mu'en's eyes. After all these years together, he had long since accepted this friend.

"Hahaha! Don't weep for a warrior."

Old Wolf took the strike in Yu Mu'en's place, and the sinister lightning swallowed his massive form.

He laughed within the lightning and found peace within the lightning. Just as he had wished, dying beneath the radiance of a stronger being while protecting what he wanted to protect was the greatest honor for a warrior.

The lightning dispersed, and the massive Dragon Wolf body collapsed. Amid the black clouds filling the sky, an old man revealed himself. He toyed with a blue-purple Soul Tool in his hand, shaped like a Vajra.

"Fifth Brother, Sixth Brother."

"You two are utterly useless. No matter what you're entrusted with, you always mess it up."

As he spoke, the old man waved his hand, and several corpses fell to the ground. The charred bodies bore rings identical to Yu Mu'en's.

"You caused such a huge disturbance in the Heaven Dou Empire. Are your brains actually working?"

"The Shrek Inspection Corps came. If I hadn't cleaned them up quickly enough, a whole group of Titled Douluo would already be coming to hunt you down!"

Nether Thunder Douluo had not intentionally left Myriad Soul and Abomination hanging. He did not have such petty interests.

The disturbance here had been too great. The Shrek Inspection Corps and the people of the Heaven Dou Empire had both come, and Nether Thunder Douluo wiped them all out, even consuming their souls.

The poor Shrek Inspection Corps had been instantly eliminated before they could even enter the fight.

Myriad Soul Douluo and Abomination Douluo broke free and came to the old man's side. Myriad Soul Douluo said:

"Third Brother, afterward I will certainly beg the cult leader and supreme cult leader for punishment. But right now, the most urgent matter is killing them!"
