Are the Sun Moon Empire's Soul Tools Invincible? Have You Seen a Twelfth-Level Soul Cannon Shell?

Shrek Academy, Sea God Island.

Mu En's expression had been grave.

He had never imagined the Sky Screen would be so powerful that it would expose his existence outright.

To the outside world, Shrek Academy's strongest member was supposed to be Taotie Douluo Xuan Zi.

Mu En himself was in terrible health. His life force was damaged, and he had little time left.

Unless the academy faced a fight for its very survival, he had no intention of making a move!

Dragon God Douluo Mu En was Shrek Academy's hidden trump card!

But now, that trump card was no longer a secret.

Yet when he saw Feng Ji ge's message, Mu En froze.

A Limit Douluo wasn't the endpoint for Soul Masters?

Nor could he be called the strongest in the world?

There were indeed beings stronger than him.

Beast God Di Tian, in the heart of the Star Dou Great Forest, was one example.

But Di Tian was not a Soul Master.

And among all Soul Masters, Mu En was confident that he stood first beyond dispute!

For he wielded the mightiest power left behind by their ancestor Tang San: the Sea God's Light!

But if what that Empress said was true, Soul Masters beyond the Limit Douluo level...

Did they really exist?

And where had this so-called "Spirit Hall Empire" come from?

For the first time, deep confusion surfaced in Mu En's clouded eyes.

Just then, Xuan Zi spoke beside him.

"Junior Martial Uncle, doesn't the name 'Spirit Hall Empire' sound strange?"

"It reminds me of... a faction that should have been wiped out long ago!"

Mu En's eyes flashed.

The Dragon God Douluo, who had weathered countless storms, spoke a name with a heavy voice.

"Spirit Hall!"

The two looked at each other and saw the same shock in one another's eyes.

Spirit Hall, destroyed ten thousand years ago...

Could it have appeared on the Sky Screen today under the name "Spirit Hall Empire"?

Phoenix God Continent, atop the sacred mountain.

Boom!

Divine light suddenly blazed from the eyes of the Phoenix God statue, which towered a thousand zhang high.

A dazzling crimson beam shot from the statue's brow and poured into Empress Feng Ji ge with unerring precision.

"Ah!!!"

Feng Ji ge threw back her head. Her golden imperial robes billowed, and her black hair stirred without wind.

Her aura, stalled at the peak of Demigod for years, began climbing at a terrifying speed!

Divine light flooded into her, and her aura surged.

At last, the aura around Feng Ji ge settled at an entirely new level.

Quasi-God!

In that moment, the entire sacred mountain fell silent as a grave.

A moment later, the ministers beneath the altar, the leaders of the great sects, and the representatives of Soul Master clans erupted in cheers that shook the heavens.

"A miracle of the Phoenix God! A miracle of the Phoenix God!"

Countless people gazed feverishly at the crimson beam that had yet to fade, their eyes blazing with fervor.

This was the Phoenix God they had worshiped for generations!

In a single instant, the Phoenix God could lift a Soul Master to the heavens and into the Quasi-God realm.

After a long while, Feng Ji ge slowly opened her eyes.

Divine flames flickered within them.

Feeling the unprecedented, terrifying power inside her, vast as the sea, Feng Ji ge drew a deep breath.

Then she turned toward the billions of subjects kneeling below the summit.

"The Phoenix God, our ancestor, has delivered a divine decree!"

Feng Ji ge's voice rang across the entire Divine Mountain and throughout the Phoenix God Continent.

"The Sky Screen is the work of Douluo Star's plane will!"

"People of the Phoenix God Continent, there is no need to panic. Just watch and wait!"

Then,

Feng Ji ge stood with her hands behind her back, divine light shining in her phoenix eyes as she slowly surveyed the Sky Screen linking the three continents above. A disdainful smile played at the corner of her lips.

A disdainful smile touched her lips.

Even the ministers and powerful Soul Masters below wore mocking smiles.

A Limit Douluo might be powerful, but calling one the strongest in the world was a joke.

It seemed the Soul Masters of the other two continents did not even know that Demigod and Quasi-God levels existed.

How backward was their cultivation system?

"In that case..."

"We'll use this Sky Screen to take a good look at the strength and distribution of resources on the other two continents."

"When the armies of my Spirit Hall Empire march forth one day..."

"All of Douluo Star will bow before the Phoenix God's divine might!"

At her words, billions of subjects cried out as one, their voices rolling like thunder through the mountains.

"Heaven and earth shall worship the Phoenix God!"

Just then,

Light rippled across the Sky Screen's News Section, and a report slowly appeared.

[Sky Screen Live News · Douluo Continent]

[1. The Northwestern Army Group under White Tiger Duke Dai Hao suffered a crushing defeat in a joint attack by two Sun Moon Empire Soul Engineer corps, with over ten thousand killed or wounded!]

[2. Huo Yuhao took a Mystic Water Pill and a Soul Ascension Pill in succession, greatly advancing his Soul Power cultivation and improving his talent!]

[3. ...]

These reports immediately stirred up a commotion in the Chat Interface.

[Bei Bei: Huh? My junior martial brother made it onto the Sky Screen? A Soul Master at just over level ten improved his cultivation, and that counts as news?]

But as soon as he sent the message, it sank like a stone and everyone ignored it.

Clearly, news of the Star Luo Empire's latest crushing defeat mattered far more than some unknown Soul Master's improvement.

Especially when that Soul Master was a weakling at just over level ten. No one felt like discussing him.

[Xu Jiawei: The Sun Moon Empire keeps growing stronger. At this rate, the Douluo Continent will never know peace. We must stop this trend!]

[Jing Hongchen: Your Majesty Xu Jiawei, forgive me for speaking frankly.

The Soul Tools you use on the Douluo Continent are all castoffs from our Sun Moon Empire.

Even the blueprints that have leaked out are generations old.

Give you another hundred years, and you still won't catch up with Virtue Hall's Soul Tool technology!]

After that message, a crowd of Sun Moon Empire Soul Engineers flooded the chat, each more smug than the last.

[Lu Renjia: Hahahaha! Hall Master Hongchen is right!]

[Pao Huiyi: It won't be long before the Douluo Continent is renamed the Sun Moon Continent!]

[Tu Feiding: When it comes to Soul Tools, our Sun Moon Empire is invincible!]

The Star Luo Empire's imperial palace.

Xu Jiawei stared at the string of galling messages, his face livid. With one slap, he shattered the imperial desk before him.

Yet he could not refute them.

Because everything the people of the Sun Moon Empire had said was true.

But just as the people of the Sun Moon Empire were basking in their triumph,

the Sky Screen's News Section changed again.

Line after line of new text appeared in the [Phoenix God Continent] section.

[Sky Screen Live News · Phoenix God Continent]

[1. Under the direction of Xu Yi, director of the Royal Academy of Sciences, the Spirit Hall Empire successfully test-fired its first twelfth-level Fixed Soul Cannon Shell, "Gods' Dusk." It has now entered mass production!]

[2. In the Heavenly Phoenix Forest, the 790,000-year Ferocious Beast Golden-Winged Great Roc survived its heavenly tribulation and advanced to 800,000 years of cultivation!]

[3. Spirit City's twenty-eighth "Snow King" shop has opened successfully. Residents are wondering whether they'll soon be able to buy a fresh cup of Pounded Orange every three steps!]

[4. ...]

Dead silence!

At that moment, both the Douluo Continent and the Sun Moon Continent fell silent as the grave!
