Holy Spirit Cult

"Yes, you heard right. They are indeed mass-produced Soul Douluo. The only time I entered the palace recently, I don't know if my father did it unintentionally or deliberately, but the auras of his bodyguards were all unfathomable. Moreover, there were several bodyguards I knew well. Their previous cultivation was only Soul Emperor. In such a short time, they have become unfathomable to me. There is only one possibility: they are Soul Douluo two realms higher than me."

Dai Weisi recalled the scene at that time, and although he still found it unbelievable, the facts were right in front of him: all the bodyguards he knew of who were around his father had reached the level of Soul Douluo.

Shui Bing'er: "Now that you mention it, I only have two guesses left. Tianshuang, do you remember the True Dragon Nine Crowns? And the deal between Qian Xunji and Yu Yuanzhen back then? We don't know the abilities of the True Dragon Nine Crowns, but one thing is certain: it has the ability to allow Titled Douluo to change their Soul Ring without injury, or to overwrite their existing Soul Ring."

Shui Bing'er paused for a moment, then gave her first guess, which she felt was the closest to the truth. She couldn't think of anyone or anything on this continent that could mass-produce Soul Douluo. The only thing she could think of was that Yu Yuanzhen had passed through the Star Luo Empire on his way to the Clear Sky Sect some time ago, which could explain it.

Shui Bing'er: "The second point is what I find rather absurd. As the emperor of the Star Luo Empire, it's impossible for him to produce so many. But only something like this could fit the fact that mass-produced Soul Douluo. Dai Weisi, did you sense anything different about the guards you met? For example, did they exude any evil aura or a bloodthirsty and brutal aura?"

Apart from Yu Tianshuang, who had been brought to the Skywater Academy by Shui Xinrou since childhood and devoted herself to cultivation, almost everyone present widened their eyes as soon as Shui Bing'er finished speaking. They exchanged incredulous glances, their hearts churning with turmoil.

Dai Weisi: "No, that can't be! How could Father Emperor do such a thing? He represents the entire Star Luo Empire..."

Dai Weisi already had the answer in his heart, because among everyone present, he was the only one who had actually seen those guards. However, he had never thought of it that way before, because it was too absurd. How could the emperor of the Star Luo Empire do something that would be condemned by everyone on the entire continent?

Zhu Zhuyun: "It shouldn't be possible, right? I think the True Dragon Nine Crowns explanation is more plausible. As the Dai Family, whose Beast Martial Soul are top-tier alongside the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, we probably have a deeper understanding of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul that has always been a threat to us. We also know some of the secrets of the True Dragon Nine Crowns. Although we currently only know that it can be used by the absorber to increase combat power beyond its limit, mass-producing Soul Douluo might actually be possible. Weisi, what do you think?"

As the Empress of the Star Luo Empire, Zhu Family was quite familiar with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, which had always been superior to the White Tiger Martial Soul. After pondering for a while, she began to speak. However, when she tried to see some confirmation in Dai Weisi's eyes, she found panic and disbelief in his expression. She immediately understood, but still refused to believe it.

Yu Tianshuang: "No, no, Senior Sister, Dai Weisi, what are you talking about? I can't understand a word you're saying!"

Yu Tianshuang watched as the others, including Ye Lingling and Zhu Zhuqing beside him, fell into deep thought. Especially since their words sounded like riddles, he suddenly felt as if he were superfluous, unable to get a word in edgewise. Helplessly, he asked.

Ye Lingling: "That's probably unlikely. Although Evil Soul Master have always existed, both the two great empires and the Spirit Hall have suppressed them to the point that they dare not show their faces for so many years. How could they dare to appear so openly now, especially in the Star Luo Empire?"

Dai Weisi's expression made it clear to those who knew the situation, but compared to the True Dragon Nine Crowns, the Evil Soul Master was even harder for them to accept.

Shui Bing'er waved her hand, stopping Yu Tianshuang from asking the next question, and said with a headache, "Shut up first, don't speak. I'll explain to you later. If they are Evil Soul Master, it's not hard to explain why they can mass-produce Soul Douluo. Soul Master who cultivate using Evil Soul Master methods can achieve a terrifying leap in cultivation speed before reaching the Titled Douluo level. Moreover, if they are based in the Star Luo Empire, combined with those shady evil techniques and the resources provided by the Star Luo Empire, mass-producing Soul Douluo would be a very easy thing. This also explains why the emperor of the Star Luo Empire dares to be so unscrupulous and doesn't take the Spirit Hall seriously."

This was the first time Yu Tianshuang had heard the term "Evil Soul Master." To be honest, he knew very little about the Douluo Continent. Evil Soul Master had almost disappeared, and Shui Xinrou wouldn't have told him about these things. But everyone present was from a powerful family or even royalty. They were quite familiar with the evil organization that had once caused so much suffering to the Evil Soul Master of the continent.

Dai Weisi: "Alas, if that's the case, things will become difficult. Father, how could you be so foolish..."

While Evil Soul Master do cultivate at an incredibly fast pace, the methods they use are utterly wicked and immoral. The thought that many of his Star Luo Empire's citizens might already be suffering filled Dai Weisi with unbearable anguish. How could his father have done such a thing...?

Shui Bing'er: "Alright, all of this is just our deduction, not the truth yet. You don't need to be so pessimistic. If your father really is colluding with Evil Soul Master, we will take action ourselves. The key now is to find a way to verify all of this, and that's up to you."

Dai Weisi: "Alright, Zhu Yun and I will find a chance to bring you into the palace."

Meanwhile, in the Star Luo Empire's imperial palace, a tall woman dressed in red looked down at a man in black kneeling below. Her lips parted slightly, and a Charm, mature female voice echoed through the hall.

Ye Yuxuan: "Have the Spirit Hall people already entered the city? Is Yu Tianshuang among them?"

The black-clad man kneeling below dared not raise his head, his eyes, gleaming with a sinister purple light, fixed on the floor as he respectfully replied:

"Reporting to the Sect Leader, the person who has arrived is Yu Tianshuang, and besides her are..."

Ye Yuxuan: "The others don't matter, as long as he's here, that's enough. He obtained the Divine Slaughter's Domain, and instead of being grateful, he destroyed the blood pool that had accumulated beneath the Hell Road. Although the Slaughter City the territory of the Crimson Bats, it's still one of the few places in the world where Evil Soul Master can find refuge. Now, a large number of Evil Soul Master in the Slaughter City have nowhere to go, and our Holy Spirit Cult naturally has an inescapable duty. It just so happens that Bibi Dong has driven this old White Tiger to a dead end, and now Yu Tianshuang, the culprit, has also delivered himself to our doorstep. Let's find an opportunity to bring them into the palace. I want to see just who exactly destroyed the Slaughter City."

Ye Yuxuan wore a semi-transparent red face mask, revealing only a pair of Charm anyone. Beneath the red mask, one could vaguely discern that her features were also extremely beautiful.

Yu Tianshuang: "Oh, I see. That explains why I've never heard Teacher mention Evil Soul Master before. How could this old White Tiger dare to defy the world and cooperate with Evil Soul Master? I think it's best not to be so hasty before the truth is revealed. If he had any brains, he wouldn't cooperate with Evil Soul Master, right? If the Spirit Hall finds a reason to use the pretext of eradicating Evil Soul Master, even the Heaven Dou Empire wouldn't be able to interfere."

After listening to Shui Bing'er recount the story of the Evil Soul Master, Yu Tianshuang pondered for a while. However, he found Shui Bing'er's words unbelievable. It was unlikely that the emperor of the Star Luo Empire, unless he had lost his mind, would cooperate with Evil Soul Master; the drawbacks were too great.

Shui Bing'er: "Not bad, it seems you've either become stupid or too lazy to use your brain. You've already figured out the crux of the problem. You're still quite clever..."

As she spoke, Shui Bing'er patted Yu Tianshuang's head with satisfaction. "That's natural, hehe." Yu Tianshuang rarely received praise from Shui Bing'er, and smiled contentedly as she spoke.

Shui Bing'er: "I just praised you a couple of times, and you're already getting cocky. Oh well, let's hope things don't escalate to this point. If it were Yu Yuanzhen, it would be easier. Evil Soul Master... if they really are Evil Soul Master, they've been hiding in the shadows for so many years, who knows how much power they've accumulated."

Dai Mubai: "It's actually this difficult. That Xiaosan is a real monster, she's so much higher up than us..."

On Sea God Island, after Tang San and the others underwent their first Sea God Trial, they arrived at the first trial location: the steps leading through the Sea God's Light. Dai Mubai looked at Tang San, who had taken so many steps ahead, and couldn't help but sigh.

Oscar: "Dai, Boss Dai, you're lucky! This... this Sea God's Light... it's just too unfair to a food-type Soul Master like me..."

Oscar was panting heavily. As a food-type Soul Master, although he had a fighting spirit, the gap between him and Power Attack System Soul Master like Dai Mubai became apparent when facing the Sea God's Light, a test of physical strength and willpower.

Tang San: "Boss Dai, I've figured it out. This Sea God's Light isn't just a test. You all stay here and meditate to cultivate!"

Tang San struggled to step onto the next step, but he was too weak to climb any further. He had no choice but to gracefully flip back to the ground. After meditating and recovering for a while, he was pleasantly surprised to find that his cultivation speed was now unimaginably fast. He immediately shouted out in delight.

Ma Hongjun: "It's true, it's true! My cultivation speed is probably several times faster than usual now, it's absolutely amazing!"

Upon hearing Tang San's words, Ma Hongjun, who had already reached his limit, immediately returned to the ground and began to meditate. After a short while, he happily spoke up.

In the Angel Sanctuary within the Spirit Hall, Qian Daoliu once again beat his beloved granddaughter until she vomited blood, and said helplessly, "Xiao Xue, if this is the attitude you're going to have, I'm afraid you won't be able to pass my test."

Qian Renxue: "Grandpa, I..."

Qian Renxue looked at Qian Daoliu, who was shimmering with holy golden light in mid-air. He had been the only source of warmth in her heart since she was a child, and he was also the strongest person in the world in her eyes. In fact, from the beginning of the test, she had no desire to win. She herself felt that she could never be a match for her grandfather. So even though Qian Daoliu had put all the water into the Heaven Dou Empire, she still could not pass the test.

"Sigh... Go down and think carefully about what you're fighting for. Sometimes, a firm belief is more important than strength!"

Qian Daoliu transformed into a golden light and vanished from the spot, returning to his room where he had remained secluded for nearly thirty years. Looking at a portrait of an exceptionally beautiful woman within, he sighed Youyou:

"Bo Saixi, our destinies are so intertwined, why didn't you choose me back then? Was it because I couldn't become a god? Now our fates are aligned once more, what will you choose?"

As the Great Enshrined of the temple, having accepted the gods' gifts, they must pay the price and become nourishment for the new gods. Even Qian Daoliu was somewhat unwilling to do so for his own granddaughter, let alone for you, an outsider...

Qian Daoliu chuckled self-deprecatingly again, looking towards the Star Dou Great Forest, and sighed, "Tang Chen, Tang Chen, we've fought our whole lives, and I've never been willing to admit defeat. But the thing I regret most in my life is inviting you to go to Sea God Island. If only... if I weren't the Great Enshrined of the Angel Temple, if I also had the qualifications to become a god, how wonderful that would be! I also hate you. Bo Saixi's words were so clear, yet you, you blockhead, still haven't gone back to find her. Now you've become a walking corpse. Fortunately, Bo Saixi isn't a Holy attribute Soul Master and can't sense your current aura, otherwise I don't know how heartbroken she would be."

When Tang Chen, who was Parasite by the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat, emerged from the Spirit City Slaughter City, Qian Daoliu, as the Great Enshrined of the God of Angels and whose Martial Soul was the Six-Winged Angel with divine attributes, sensed that familiar aura filled with evil, slaughter, and tyranny, even though he was far away in Martial Soul City.
