Soul Power Rises One Level-A Formidable Enemy for Qian Daoliu?

"Demon Subduing Douluo, your turn!"

Within Spacetime Disorder, Li Tianyuan stepped through the positions of the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams, appearing before Demon Subduing Douluo in an instant as he shouted in a low voice.

Yet his figure remained concealed.

"Who the hell are you? Come out here if you have the guts!"

Holding his Coiling Dragon Staff, Demon Subduing Douluo burned with fury. He swung at Li Tianyuan's position, but it clearly had no effect.

Bang!

Almost simultaneously, Li Tianyuan's Wind God Leg slammed into Demon Subduing Douluo's cheek.

That kick left a footprint right on his face.

Then his other foot struck Demon Subduing Douluo in the chest, sending him flying with tremendous force.

Demon Subduing Douluo flew backward out of Spacetime Disorder and crashed onto the ground. Half his face rapidly swelled red, the shoe print distinctly visible.

He felt a fiery, stinging pain across his face.

"You bastard! Show yourself before this Douluo if you have the guts!"

Demon Subduing Douluo erupted in rage. The Coiling Dragon Staff in his hand rose into the air as he unleashed his ninth Soul Skill, Salvation of All Beings!

With this strike, the Coiling Dragon Staff crashed down like a golden dragon, like an enormous pillar.

The entire void seemed to rumble.

Overwhelming power thundered down.

"What devastating power! Fine, there's no need for this Douluo to swallow suffering for nothing!"

Li Tianyuan knew when to quit while he was ahead. He immediately canceled his Soul Skill and stepped away.

Demon Subduing Douluo's mighty strike failed to touch even the hem of his clothes.

The surrounding houses were not so fortunate, however. Several shattered outright.

Seeing this, Demon Subduing Douluo roared even louder, "Get the hell out here!"

He swung the Coiling Dragon Staff in his hand, preparing to attack again.

"Jiang Mo, wait!"

Qian Jun Douluo intervened to stop him.

If this continued, quite a few ordinary people nearby would likely be killed. That would be bad.

"Big brother, are we really just going to let this go?"

Demon Subduing Douluo was reluctant, but he still withdrew his Coiling Dragon Staff and refrained from attacking again.

"We cannot rush this matter."

"Our opponent's Martial Soul and Soul Skills harness spatial abilities. They are exceptional and give him a considerable advantage over us."

"We need to consider our next move carefully."

Qian Jun Douluo spoke gravely.

In his view, continuing to fight would only be futile. Unless they found a way to counter their opponent's Soul Skill, the two brothers still had no way to defeat him.

"Damn it! I've roamed the Douluo Continent unchallenged for so many years, and this is the first time I've encountered such a formidable opponent!"

Demon Subduing Douluo clenched his fists. Though unwilling to accept it, he did not want to keep getting kicked in the face either.

"Enough. Let's head back first."

Qian Jun Douluo gave him a meaningful glance, then turned toward Spirit Hall.

Demon Subduing Douluo turned around and was about to leave, but looked back and spoke coldly into the empty air. "Whoever you are, just you wait. This isn't over!"

"I'll beat you to pieces!"

Only after saying this did Demon Subduing Douluo stride away.

Chrysanthemum Douluo watched the two leave, disbelief written across his face.

"I never imagined the Douluo behind all this was so powerful. Even those two brothers working together couldn't shake him."

"I must report this to His Holiness the Pope immediately."

Muttering to himself, Chrysanthemum Douluo glanced around before turning and hurrying away.

After watching the three Douluos leave, Li Tianyuan returned to his original spot.

[Ding! System mission completed. Congratulations, host. Your Soul Power has increased by one level.]

Li Tianyuan had just been about to sit down when he sensed his Soul Power suddenly rise, surging fiercely within his body.

Only after a while did it settle down.

"My Soul Power rose by one level. I never expected it to increase this much!"

Li Tianyuan could feel that although he had gained only one level, his Soul Power had undergone an astonishing change.

No wonder Soul Power increased so slowly after reaching Level 90.

Without a fortuitous encounter, making any progress was almost impossible.

"Now that my Soul Power has increased, using my Soul Skills will be easier too. I wonder what other tricks the Worship Hall has up its sleeve?"

"I'm actually looking forward to it!"

Li Tianyuan had originally decided to leave Spirit City and travel far away. But after exchanging blows with several Douluos, he instead wanted to stay in Spirit City for a while and see just how far those old fellows in the Worship Hall could push him.

As for Bibi Dong, he was no longer quite so afraid of her.

Though this woman was powerful, she still fell far short of Qian Daoliu.

After all, she had yet to gain the Rakshasa God's full recognition.

Li Tianyuan found somewhere to hide again and continued studying his Soul Skills.

In the Pope's Hall, Bibi Dong sat with an icy expression. Ever since Li Tianyuan had left her, she had been unable to feel happy.

Soft footsteps approached from outside.

Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan entered cautiously.

"Greetings, Your Holiness."

Chrysanthemum Douluo bowed respectfully.

Bibi Dong opened her eyes and looked at him, asking indifferently, "Yue Guan, what news do you have?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo immediately reported the battle between the two great Douluos and the Douluo with the mysterious Martial Soul.

"What!"

Bibi Dong was startled. Working together, the brothers Qian Jun Douluo and Demon Subduing Douluo could unleash the strength of a level 98 Douluo. Yet they had returned with their feathers clipped, unable even to force that mysterious Douluo out of hiding.

Just who was he?

Why was he so mysterious?

"Your Holiness, I suspect this mysterious Douluo may well be targeting the Worship Hall."

Chrysanthemum Douluo offered his analysis.

"Oh? Why do you say that?"

Bibi Dong asked.

"To tell you the truth, he slapped me earlier as well, but he didn't strike very hard. That suggests he merely intended to teach me a lesson. With those fellows from the Worship Hall, however, he didn't seem inclined to hold back!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo voiced his conjecture.

"You mean he might be Qian Daoliu's enemy?!"

Something occurred to Bibi Dong, and a fervent gleam entered her eyes.

Although she was the Pope of Spirit Hall and appeared to stand high above everyone, answerable to no one, she had always been constrained by the Worship Hall under Qian Daoliu's control.

It made it difficult for her to carry out her revenge.

Now things were different. If a formidable enemy of Qian Daoliu appeared, there might be a chance to change the current situation.

"It's possible. In any case, he probably isn't a friend. Otherwise, he would have gone to Spirit Hall to catch up with Qian Daoliu long ago!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo said.

"Very good. Continue watching and find out who he is. If possible, I want to meet him in person."

Bibi Dong spoke, ideas stirring in her mind.

She decided to use this mysterious Douluo to deal with Qian Daoliu.

Once something went wrong for Qian Daoliu, she would be able to bring Li Tianyuan back to Spirit Hall.

Then the two of them could nest together and fly side by side.

"Understood."

Chrysanthemum Douluo cupped his hands, then turned and withdrew.

Only after stepping outside the hall did a sinister smile creep onto his lips.

"If he really is a formidable enemy of Qian Daoliu, things will get interesting. Spirit City might be turned upside down!"

Anticipation flickered in Chrysanthemum Douluo's eyes.

Perhaps he might even enter the Worship Hall within his lifetime!
