A parallel Douluo world.
Within Spirit City, the capital of the Spirit Hall Empire!
Magnificent buildings stretched for a hundred li. Outside the grand hall at the very center of the complex, people stood in ring after ring, their blades pointed straight at the lone figure in their midst.
"Qian Xunji, you've committed countless atrocities. Today is the day you die!"
"Qian Xunji, you sparked a war and slaughtered the innocent to feed your wolfish ambitions. You're a sinner against the entire continent!"
"Qian Xunji, you wiped out my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Today, I'll avenge the three thousand disciples of my sect who died!"
Shrill curses, laden with hatred, rang throughout the grounds, yet the man surrounded in the middle wore a look of utter bewilderment.
"Where am I?"
One second, Lin Mo was still bewildered; the next, a flood of memories surged into his mind.
"Hiss!"
Lin Mo sucked in a sharp breath, his face contorted with pain.
At the very front of the crowd, a handsome youth in sea-blue robes wore a fierce expression. He raised the spear in his hand, pointing its tip straight at Lin Mo.
"Qian Xunji, you stopped at nothing to become a god. You provoked a war across the continent, and tens of millions died because of you. Your sins tower to the heavens. Today, I, Tang San, will make you repay your debt of blood in blood."
"Qian Xunji, today I'll kill you to avenge my mother!"
Beside Tang San, Xiao Wu likewise shouted fiercely in her clear voice.
"Hahahaha! Teacher, do you see this? Is this the outcome you wanted? Everyone wants you dead! You imprisoned me in a secret chamber, stole my chastity, and forced me to bear a child. Today, you face your retribution!"
Nearby, an exceptionally beautiful woman with a voluptuous figure lay half-reclining on the ground. Blood stained the corner of her mouth, and she was clearly injured, but her face was filled with a smile of satisfaction.
The woman was none other than Bibi Dong. However, in this parallel world, she was not His Holiness the Pope who looked down upon the world, but the disciple and lover who followed at Qian Xunji's side.
At a critical moment, she had launched a sneak attack on Qian Xunji, injuring him and drastically reducing his fighting strength, ultimately leaving him trapped here!
"Qian Xunji, you're worse than a beast! To think you committed such a bestial act against your own disciple!"
After learning what Bibi Dong had suffered, Yu Xiaogang looked at the tragically beautiful woman on the ground, his heart filled with indignation.
"Qian Xunji, why haven't you surrendered yourself to execution yet?"
"Qian Xunji, you've committed countless atrocities and killed countless innocent lives. Don't you feel even a shred of remorse?"
"The Douluo Continent will never tolerate an Evil Soul Master like you."
As fierce shouts reached his mind, Lin Mo finally finished integrating the two sets of memories.
He had actually become Qian Xunji-and the greatest villain boss of this parallel Douluo Continent at that. The original Qian Xunji had used a demonic secret art, intending to sacrifice himself and take everyone down with him.
Yet, although the sacrifice had taken place, all that had disappeared was Qian Xunji's own soul. Not only had he failed to take the enemies surrounding him down with him, he had instead summoned Lin Mo, a soul from another world.
"Damn it, if you're going to transmigrate me, just transmigrate me properly! I only just got here, and I'm already about to get a boxed lunch! Fuck *%￥#...￥#..."
Watching the unresponsive Qian Xunji, Tang San and the others could not figure out what was happening for a moment. According to what Bibi Dong had revealed, Qian Xunji possessed a demonic secret art that could summon demons to take others down with him. This was also why they had not rushed to attack.
"Everyone, attack together! Even if Qian Xunji has some demonic secret art, we can still blast him into dust."
Tang San urged the crowd on.
"All right, everyone, attack together!"
Just then, the entire earth shook with a thunderous rumble. Caught off guard, everyone staggered this way and that.
"Everyone, get off the ground! This must be Qian Xunji's doing!"
Someone shouted fiercely, and everyone hurriedly took to the air.
At that very moment, a strange phenomenon suddenly appeared in the sky as well. At the sight, everyone grew uneasy and panicked.
"What on earth is going on?"
"What method is Qian Xunji using to cause such an astonishing phenomenon?"
"Quick! Let's attack together and kill Qian Xunji!"
Someone urged frantically.
"Look! What's that?"
Another startled, panicked cry rang out, and everyone raised their heads to look at the sky.
An enormous screen of light slowly emerged in the sky. Immense fear rose in everyone's hearts. They had never seen anything like this before.
What on earth was going on?
Lin Mo also looked up at the screen of light in the sky, and a thought stirred in his mind. Why did this screen look so much like something from the novels he had read?
"Look, words have appeared on that Heavenly Screen!"
Someone could not help shouting in surprise.
Everyone else rolled their eyes upon hearing this. They were not blind. Of course they had seen the words appearing on the Heavenly Screen.
[The Heavenly Screen descends, exposing the past and judging original sin!]
Looking at the words on the Heavenly Screen, everyone silently repeated them to themselves, pondering their meaning.
Exposing the past and judging original sin?
At that moment, however, Lin Mo's heart shook violently!
Because he discovered that he could actually control this Heavenly Screen. Could this be his golden finger?
Soon, Lin Mo understood what the Heavenly Screen did.
Exposing the past and judging original sin-as the words suggested, it would expose the past of the chosen person. If that person had committed evil in the past, then once the exposure ended, they would face the Heavenly Screen's judgment.
Moreover, this judgment was a judgment of laws. Even if you had already become a god, as long as you had committed an unforgivable sin, you could only surrender yourself to execution under this judgment.
There was one more thing: if more than half the people of the Douluo Continent believed the images on the Heavenly Screen, it could turn falsehood into truth and alter reality's cause and effect.
"Putting on a supernatural act! What Heavenly Screen, exposing the past and judging original sin? Watch me pierce you with my halberd!"
A long-haired, middle-aged man in the crowd shouted fiercely. He stretched a hand to the side, and a golden halberd appeared. It was the middle-aged man's Martial Soul, and he seized it in his hand.
With a swing of his halberd, he charged toward the Heavenly Screen in the sky.
Yet just then, the Heavenly Screen flashed with light, and the middle-aged man hurtling toward it abruptly stopped.
As though someone had pressed a pause button on him, his entire body came to a forced halt in midair.
"What's going on?"
Everyone looked at the man in confusion. By now, fear mingled with the shock on the middle-aged man's face.
Because he discovered that he could not move at all-not even a single finger or a trace of Soul Power.
It could even suppress Soul Power. Just what was the origin of this Heavenly Screen? By now, the middle-aged man was already regretting acting rashly before finding out the details of this Heavenly Screen.
"Could it be because of that Heavenly Screen?"
Someone spoke up. While everyone was still surprised and confused, words appeared on the Heavenly Screen again.
[Zhao Changhai, level 90 Soul Douluo]
"That's my name!"
Looking at the words on the Heavenly Screen, Zhao Changhai's pupils suddenly contracted. Why had his name appeared on this Heavenly Screen?
"Who is Zhao Changhai?"
"Zhao Changhai is him. Why has his name appeared on the Heavenly Screen?"
Someone answered the previous person's question.
Others secretly congratulated themselves for not attacking impulsively. This Heavenly Screen's origins were unknown. Zhao Changhai was a level 90 Soul Douluo, yet he was now frozen in midair, unable to move at all.
The next moment, the Heavenly Screen changed again.
[Judgment begins]
