Nightmare Emperor
In the northwest corner of Mingdu, inside an inconspicuous mansion.
In the dimly lit, secret room, the flickering candlelight cast long and short shadows on several eerie figures.
One of the men, exuding a profound aura, stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze seemingly penetrating the wall, as if he could see everything thousands of miles away.
"The Federation was far too careless; they lured away the most troublesome guy with a simple trick."
"..." Qilin Douluo said Youyou, his tone devoid of any emotion.
The old man beside him glanced at the Limit Douluo and said in a low voice, "Sir, it's best not to be careless. Don't forget, the War God Temple is within the Central Army, and they are not easy to deal with. Moreover, even though the War God Temple has lost its strongest War Gods, it still has many powerful figures. They cannot be underestimated."
The War God Hall Headquarters is located in the mountainous area of West Mountain Mingdu. This mountainous area is completely under military control and is guarded not only by the War God Temple but also by the Central Army directly under the Federation Parliament.
This is also a kind of balance for the Federation. After all, if the military's combat power is too concentrated, it will be a big problem if something goes wrong inside the War God Temple. Therefore, the relationship between the Central Army and the War God Temple is not good.
However, if something really happens to the War God Temple, they will definitely go to its aid.
Moreover, the War God Temple has eighteen levels, also known as the Eighteenth Level of Hell. In addition to being guarded by eighteen war gods, there are many powerful individuals inside. We cannot be careless just because a few war gods have left.
You overestimate them.
Before Qilin Douluo could speak, a current Federal Councilor stepped forward and chuckled, "The War God Temple's system limits the potential of those powerful individuals."
The eighteen-level War God Temple was originally established for military personnel to train and challenge themselves. Passing the test of each level of the War God Temple brings rich rewards and can directly promote military rank.
Moreover, there is a special safe harbor system there.
Once someone starts attempting the challenge, even if that person is a criminal within the military, they cannot be arrested. They must wait until the challenge is completed, and then the War God Temple can either handle the situation themselves or hand them over to the Central Army, depending on the circumstances.
Since there are Limit Douluo stationed there year-round, the War God Temple isn't worried about anyone truly heinous escaping. If someone is truly capable, and their crimes aren't unforgivable, the War God Temple might even consider recruiting them.
As a result, this rule has evolved to the point where the War God Temple no longer cares about the challenger's specific identity; even if the challenger is not a member of the military, but a real criminal, they can still give it a try.
Is it confidence or arrogance?
The possessing Possession Demon, embodying the senator, sneered in a human voice, "If we can bypass the Central Army by pretending to challenge the Eighteenth Level of Hell in the War God Temple, and even deceive the War Gods of the first few levels, this operation will be much smoother."
The members of the Holy Spirit Cult in the room did not refute this.
The War God Temple's system does indeed have significant flaws, which normally wouldn't lead to fatal consequences, but now...
They looked into the depths of the house.
There stood a figure whose aura was even more profound than that of the Qilin Douluo.
The Devil Emperor, one of the two emperors of the Holy Spirit Cult!
With the ruler of this Possession Demon clan personally taking action, everything is no problem!
It's important to know that the power of the Possession Demon race fluctuates greatly.
While Possession Demon is troublesome before it possesses someone, it's nothing compared to Possession Demon that has already possessed someone.
When a Possession Demon has a target and completely controls and devours the possessed person, the Possession Demon will gain full control of that person's power. Combined with the Possession Demon's own abilities, its strength is unimaginable.
The Devil Emperor possessed a powerful being, perfectly controlling everything about that being, and thus became the ruler of the Possession Demon race.
It's only because the entity it possessed was a Limit Douluo!
This is unbelievable. Limit Douluo possesses the Divine Power of the Spirit Domain Realm, which is enough to resist their possession. Not to mention that as a top-level expert, knowing that he cannot resist possession, he would definitely self-destruct and die rather than submit.
Thousand Years, Abyss Plane attacked the Douluo Federation, Possession Demon possessed Limit Douluo with the help of his companions, but ultimately failed.
But the Devil Emperor succeeded!
"A Possession Demon by Limit Douluo, I don't know how he did it----"
The Qilin Douluo's expression was somewhat complicated.
The Devil Emperor listened quietly to their discussion, and only after feeling their gazes upon him did he say with a profound look in his eyes, "Qilin, you can provide support outside. As for the War God Temple —I will go alone!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Devil Emperor's appearance subtly changed, his originally aged face quickly becoming younger.
The Possession Demon race can possess a maximum of three people. This is the appearance of the first person he possessed, which happened hundreds of years ago. No one recognizes him now, and it was the appearance he used to deceive the War God Temple.
After all, if he went there directly in the appearance of that Limit Douluo, it would be frightening. The real show would have to wait until after he infiltrated the War God Temple.
The Devil Emperor's lips curled into a smile that was unlike anything in human form.
As Possession Demon, he lacked the pride and dignity of a powerful being.
For the War God Temple, today is destined to be a noisy day.
After the temple masters and deputy masters left, they faced their first challenger.
Because the opponent was only an ordinary Titled Douluo, and had a letter of recommendation from a councilor, none of the War Gods were too wary.
But after the challenger defeated a war god and began to overcome the challenges one by one, the war god left behind in the War God Temple god gradually felt that something was wrong.
"They actually made it all the way to the thirteenth floor?"
The Sixth War God frowned slightly as he looked at the challenger's figure on the Soul Guidance Screen.
The Eighth War God, who had just returned from testing the challenger, said gravely, "His Soul Skill is very special. Whenever our attacks land on him, his body seems to become ethereal, rendering our attacks completely ineffective. Therefore, his strength cannot be judged by ordinary standards."
He paused, then looked at the Sixth War God, "What should we do? The Palace Master and the others have left. Should we still let him continue through the trials?"
With that kind of Soul Skill, ordinary people can't do anything to this guy.
Upon hearing this, the Sixth War God's eyes flickered slightly. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Send him directly to the seventeenth floor and let that person give it a try. I'll also take a look. It would be best if such a promising talent could be recruited into the War God Temple."
"Good."
The Eighth God of War nodded.
The absence of the Hall Master and Vice Hall Master does not mean that the War God Temple lacks its Limit combat power, and the trials of the Eighteenth Level of Hell do not necessarily have to be conducted by the Hall Master and Vice Hall Master.
Unbeknownst to them, they inadvertently made the right decision, which was also the wrong one.
When the Sixth War God stepped into the seventeenth level of the magma hell, an unexpected situation came into his view.
The Fire Host Clan completely surrounded the challenger, leaving no room to maneuver. The Fire Host Clan chief, Skyfire, who was supposed to only use a portion of his strength to test the challenger, unleashed his full power, staring at the person before him with icy eyes.
"A Limit Douluo, what is your purpose in infiltrating the War God Temple?!"
