Douluo: Soul Shadow King - Chapter 230
c230 Arrived at Wuhun City
“What are you mumbling?” Facing the roaring Legia, Cheng Xiao scratched his ear with his right hand, and the next moment, he suddenly raised his left hand and activated the Hand of the Ruler.
The Blue Silver Overlord Spear tore through the air like an arrow from Li Hong and rushed towards Legia’s head. With a “bang”, the Blue Silver Overlord Spear actually broke directly, but its target, Legia, was not hurt at all.
With a sarcastic arc at the corner of his mouth, Legia did not speak, but his expression seemed to be mocking, “Shadow King? That’s it?”
Cheng Xiao’s mouth twitched. As he thought, if the king was destroyed so easily, he would not be a king.
However, he was not in a hurry. Judging from the current situation, it was only a matter of time before the giant orcs were killed. Even if the Taizu King Legia was strong, facing so many attacks, even the king would die, right?
Cheng Xiao has not forgotten that it was not difficult for Cheng Xiaoyu to kill the Taizu King. Although it was because of the weapon in his hand, it also shows from the side that the kings are not unkillable. At least, except for the Dragon Emperor, the strength of other kings is not as terrifying as imagined.
Of course, it may also be that Cheng Xiaoyu’s level is too high, so these kings are just stronger monsters in his eyes.
After figuring this out, Cheng Xiao looked at the Taizu King Lajia and told it with his mouth, “Wait patiently, don’t do useless things, because later, I will kill you completely.”
Staring at Cheng Xiao, Lajia’s anger reached a critical point. If it weren’t for this hateful chain, he would tear the human in front of him into pieces. He is a king, the king of giants, and a mere human dares to be so rude to him!
Seeing that Legia was still angry but could only roar helplessly, Cheng Xiao’s expression relaxed a lot. In fact, he was still afraid that Legia might have some tricks up his sleeve. After all, he was the first king to appear, so he shouldn’t be so weak. However, those chains seemed to be intentional. If he also had a system, he would get a lot of experience by killing a king, right?
After a while, all the giant orcs in the room lay on the ground, including the three strengthened giant orcs killed by the six Title Douluo. At this moment, the strong smell of blood filled the air, making people feel a little uncomfortable.
But more soul masters had a firmness on their faces that they had never had when they came. This battle not only made them experience the cruelty of life and death, but also made their hearts stronger, because the weak soul masters had died under the axe of the giant orcs.
After wiping the blood off his face, Cheng Xiao’s eyes flashed, “Now, let me show you something interesting.” As soon as he finished speaking, a huge force of death surged out of his body. As the successor of the Shadow King, the surroundings were like a celebration scene filled with delicacies from the mountains and the sea.
The giant orc corpses scattered everywhere began to emit black smoke, as if they had been waiting for Cheng Xiao’s call for a long time.
“Stand up!” Cheng Xiao’s voice was not loud, but it gave people a solemn sense of oppression.
“Woo ah ah ah ah ah…”
Legia widened her eyes, “How dare you… That’s my soldier!”
“It’s mine now.”
Before he finished speaking, a black hand stretched out from the shadow of the giant orcs’ corpses, and Cheng Xiao’s mind instantly had many more sensations.
Looking at the new members of the Shadow Legion, Cheng Xiao smiled. It must be said that the shadow soldiers are only spectacular when there are many of them!
“No! Shadow King! You turned my warriors into living dead!”
Legia roared wildly. There were hundreds of dead orc warriors. At this moment, the room was filled with dense shadow soldiers. Now, the offense and defense were switched.
Legia finally realized that once these brave and warlike giant orc warriors died, they would be resurrected as shadow soldiers. They would no longer recognize themselves as the king, but would swear loyalty to the Shadow King.
The more orc warriors died, the more soldiers the Shadow King would have. When those saw their companions resurrected as shadow soldiers, they would completely lose their will to fight.
For these giant orcs who had to serve their opponents after death, it was undoubtedly a nightmare, because after death they could not enter the holy land of warriors, and had to serve the enemy, which made the faith of the orc warriors collapse.
“What a pity, Lejia.” Cheng Xiao suddenly sighed and said with some disappointment: “If the king can be turned into a shadow soldier, I think it will be a rare scene.”
“Hehe…” Lejia suddenly laughed, but there was only helplessness in his laughter. It raised its head, stared into Cheng Xiao’s eyes, and suddenly said: “Second… Third generation Shadow King, can you tell me… your name?”
“Cheng Xiao.” After saying the name, Cheng Xiao smiled and turned his head, “Shadows!”
Cheng Xiao’s shouts echoed in the room, and the shadows immediately prepared for battle.
Swish!
For a moment, silence enveloped.
What broke the silence was Cheng Xiao’s words pointing to Taizu King Lejia, “Go.”
Afterwards, hundreds of shadow soldiers began to rush towards Taizu King Lejia, who was bound by iron chains and unable to move. When they were alive, they declared their allegiance to Taizu King, and after death, they belonged to the Shadow King.
As the shadow soldiers rushed out, the pupils of the ground, the room, and the soul masters who were watching this scene began to tremble, and their bodies retreated uncontrollably.
“Damn, it’s really spectacular.” Dugu Bo shook his tattered green robe and said with a dark face.
In this battle, he and Jiandao Chenxin were both injured, but it was not a big problem. The giant orcs were too big, so their agility was not high. Except for the fact that he and Chenxin were not very adaptable at the beginning, they killed them mercilessly after getting familiar with the giant orcs’ attacks.
As for the four people in the Wuhun Hall, Jiang Mo and Qianjun cooperated in an unstoppable way, and the Panlong stick could be big or small, and the giant orcs couldn’t even fight back. As for Ju Douluo and Ghost Douluo, after the former learned the Vajra Indestructible, the giant orcs couldn’t even break through the defense, and the ghost relied on the special nature of the martial soul to play the giant orcs around.
So, the three giant orcs were killed by the six Titled Douluos after they spent some effort to get familiar with the opponent’s attack mode.
Except for the six titled Douluo, the soul masters from the same academy as Cheng Xiao and even other academies were extremely shocked when they saw this scene. If Cheng Xiao had shown this kind of strength during the competition, they would have thought he was brave just to look at him, not to mention fighting.
This is no longer a gap in strength, but a gap in strength. Yes, a gap.
The people of Shrek who saw Cheng Xiao’s disobedience were even worse, especially Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun. They even thought that if they were killed by Cheng Xiao at the beginning, they might also be among the shadow soldiers now, right?
“So powerful…” Oscar looked at this scene, without jealousy in his heart, but only yearning for strength. If he also had such a powerful power, could he propose to Ning Zongzhu of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect?
“Erlong, after you go out, tell the students of the academy that no one in Shrek is allowed to provoke students from the Seven Star Academy. Those who cause trouble will be kicked out of the academy.” Flanders sighed, his heart full of bitterness.
Obviously… Obviously Cheng Xiao could have come to Shrek Academy, why is he so stupid?
“Boss Fu, but…” Liu Erlong glanced at Tang San, but found that the latter was drooping his head, looking discouraged. Obviously, the gap in strength shattered Tang San’s last confidence. This was not an opponent he could defeat, so he gave up.
…………
The Great Ancestor King Lajia was very angry. When it woke up, there was only one order in its mind, to kill the Shadow King, or be killed by the Shadow King.
But now, it has no chance to resist. What is the difference between a king who can’t use power and an ordinary monster?
“Haha, compared to the ruler, kings, you are more disappointing…”
The voice of the Great Ancestor King Lajia fell, and Nash’s dragon breath pierced its head. Without the head, Lajia’s body was still locked by the iron chain. Even if it died, the iron chain never broke.
With the death of the Great Ancestor King, the whole room began to collapse, and the ground began to tremble, as if it would collapse in the next moment.
“Go!” The soul master shouted in the crowd.
In an instant, the soul masters rushed out of the room one after another, and many auxiliary soul masters released large-scale assistance. After this battle, everyone had no longer had the barriers of the past.
“Cheng Xiao, this place is going to collapse, hurry up!” Looking at Cheng Xiao who was searching on the body of the Great Ancestor King, Dugu Bo couldn’t help but shout anxiously.
Except for him who stayed, almost all the other students were taken away by Jian Douluo. This was Dugu Bo’s request.
“Old poison, why are you panicking.” Cheng Xiao found a piece of sparkling crystal in the body of Lajia, smiled, and then turned around and said to Dugu Bo.
“How can I not be anxious? It will collapse soon!” Dugu Bo was anxious.
“Don’t worry, don’t worry.” After putting away the magic crystal, Cheng Xiao walked to Dugu Bo, patted the latter’s shoulder, and said with a smile: “Let’s go.”
Dugu Bo was about to use his soul power to take Cheng Xiao away, but suddenly found that he couldn’t move. The next moment, the thick darkness covered his eyes. When he came to his senses, he was surprised to find that he was already standing in the canyon.
“Fuck?” Dugu Bo burst out with a swear word in shock. He looked around and confirmed that he had really arrived in the canyon. He was dumbfounded.
“I’m telling you it’s okay.” Cheng Xiao smiled at this time.
Before entering the portal, he arranged the shadow soldiers. This was his first time entering the dungeon. Of course, he had to be fully prepared. This shadow exchange was also very useful.
After coming out of the portal, all the soul masters felt lucky to escape, and many soul masters felt pain because their companions were killed. Of course, most soul masters felt lucky because they did not die in it. Being alive was already a good thing.
While the soul masters chose to rest and recover their strength, the soul masters of the Spirit Hall, led by Jiang Mo and Qian Jun Douluo, retreated like a tide.
Before leaving, Ju Douluo told Cheng Xiao by voice transmission that he had explained his relationship with the Spirit Hall to the two priests, so the two priests did not stay any longer, otherwise Cheng Xiao’s ability would definitely be taken to the Spirit Hall.
In this regard, Cheng Xiao did not say much. He showed the ability of the Shadow King in front of so many soul masters, and it was good that he was not attacked. Fortunately, the era of Dou Yi was not as abstract as the era of Dou Er, otherwise he would be hunted down as an evil soul master just for extracting the shadow of a dead creature.
“Cheng Xiao, your spirit’s ability really opened my eyes.” Just then, Ning Fengzhi came over with Ning Rongrong, and he smiled and said, “Thanks to you this time.”
Cheng Xiao bowed slightly and said, “Master Ning, you are joking. I just did what I should do. The credit is not mine.”
Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi smiled helplessly, chatted with Cheng Xiao for a few words, and then went to find Xue Qinghe.
Now that the crisis is over, they still have to go to Wuhun City. Even when they go to Wuhun City to compete, I wonder how many colleges can still participate normally.
Academies that see Cheng Xiao’s strength should give up, right?
After a while, Xue Qinghe fully demonstrated the imperial education he had received since childhood. After the crisis was completely resolved, he immediately began to command the Royal Knights in an orderly manner, pulling the undamaged carriage to the front and gradually restoring the formation.
After a while, except for some dead soul masters and the Royal Knights, the entire team has recovered its ability to move.
After a simple cleanup, the Tiandou Empire’s participating teams continued to move forward, but their goal was no longer to participate in the competition. Instead, they were ready to give up the competition after arriving at Wuhun City. They knew that the top three in this competition were no longer something they could get involved in.
In order to prevent any more trouble, Xue Qinghe temporarily transferred 3,000 armored soldiers from the nearest city as guards, and at the same time, he summoned some soul masters from the imperial capital.
…………
A few days later, Wuhun Hall, Pope City.
After listening to the narration of Ghost Douluo and Ju Douluo, Pope Bibi Dong’s eyes flashed with coldness, and he said in a cold voice: “No wonder Qian Daoliu forced me to send a soul master team to the extreme north. It turns out that this old guy has already discovered something.”
“Your Majesty, please calm down.” Ju Douluo and Ghost Douluo bowed at the same time.
“I’m not that easily angered.” Hearing this, Bibi Dong glanced at the two of them and said lightly: “Two elders, you are the Titled Douluo, tell me, what is the strength of those creatures in the other world?”
“Just in case, our Wuhun Hall must also prepare in advance.”
After this, Ju Douluo and Ghost Douluo looked at each other, and then Ju Douluo slowly said: “Your Highness, the strength of the creatures in this other world is not uniform. The enemies that Elder Ghost and I face are at the level of Titled Douluo. As for their king, it should be at the same level as your Highness.”
“However, the king we met this time seems to have been sealed by a more powerful existence, so…”
“So you don’t know its specific strength.” Bibi Dong waved her hand impatiently, “Forget it, you can withdraw. The number of participating teams in this competition should be drastically reduced. Let Nana and the others be prepared.”
“Yes, Your Highness.” Ju Douluo shuddered and said.
As soon as the voice fell, the two Douluo, Juegui, disappeared from the spot and left the hall.
After the two left, Bibi Dong’s eyes flashed coldly, as if talking to herself: “Creatures from another world? I advise you to be honest, otherwise, I don’t mind getting rid of you completely before completing my plan.”
…………
Worship Hall.
This is the largest building in the Pope’s Hall, and it also represents the most powerful power of the entire Wuhun Hall. In the tall dome building, as soon as you enter the door, you will see a wide hall, and the dome is more than 30 meters high.
The Wuhun Hall has been in operation for many years, and the foundation behind it is unmatched by any sect. There are more than 20 elders at the level of Titled Douluo, and the more powerful ones are the inner worshippers of the Worship Hall.
All the worshippers of the Wuhun Hall are promoted from the elders in the Elder Hall. The condition for being promoted to worshippers is very simple, that is, the soul power breaks through the 95th level, and at least has the soul power of the 96th level to become a worshipper.
Once a soul master becomes a worshiper, he will have a transcendent status in the Spirit Hall. He can even obey the orders of the Pope and only obey the orders of the Lord of the Worship Hall, the Great Worshiper Qian Daoliu. There are seven worshipers in the Spirit Hall, led by the Great Worshiper Qian Daoliu, who is known as the invincible sky.
At this moment, the Worship Hall was quiet, and there was not even a servant. When Qianjun Douluo and Jiangmo Douluo walked into the huge hall, the hair on their bodies suddenly shrank and their brows also frowned.
In the center of the hall, there was a huge six-winged angel statue made of pure gold and more than ten meters high. In front of the statue stood a man, with his back to the direction of the gate, looking up at the pure gold statue.
From the back, he was a middle-aged man with a tall stature, long golden hair casually draped behind his head, wearing a red worship robe. Just standing there, it gave people a feeling of wanting to worship.
“Great Priest, the task you assigned to us has been completed.” Qianjun Douluo and Jiangmo Douluo half-knelt on the ground respectfully as soon as they entered the door.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man slowly turned around, and the special aura he had before suddenly disappeared. He looked only in his thirties or forties, and was very handsome. The calm and gentle aura gave people a very comfortable feeling.
The most bizarre thing was that even Qianjun Douluo and Jiangmo Douluo, whose soul power was as high as level 96, could not feel a trace of soul power fluctuation from him, as if the middle-aged man standing in front of them was just an ordinary person.
“Tell me, how do you feel?” Qian Daoliu took a step forward lightly, and the next moment, he came to Qianjun Douluo and Jiangmo Douluo, then stretched out his hand to slowly help the latter up, and said lightly.
Qianjun Douluo nodded and said: “Great Priest, these alien creatures are more powerful than we imagined. Ordinary warriors have reached the Soul King level, and the more elite are Soul Saints and Soul Douluos, and there are Titled Douluo-level creatures among them.”
“As for their king, the one we saw this time is not strong. It seems to be restricted by stronger creatures. Otherwise, Lao Qi and I may not be able to come back.”
Qianjun Douluo said the truth. The terrifying magic fluctuations emanating from the Taizu King almost made it difficult for them to resist. If there were not enough Titled Douluos, it would be impossible for the two brothers to survive alone.
“Thank you for your hard work.” Qian Daoliu patted Qianjun Douluo on the shoulder and said in a deep voice: “I estimate that the kings of these creatures should be at the god level at the worst, but you can kill them, so they must be subject to some kind of restrictions, or they are far less powerful than that.”
His face changed slightly, Qianjun Douluo thought of the Shadow King mentioned by the Taizu King, and immediately explained in a deep voice: “Great Priest, in this operation, we also met a boy named Cheng Xiao. He is called the Shadow King by the kings of these creatures, and his martial spirit is full of powerful death aura. Do you think he will…”
“Yes, Great Priest, and the most important thing is that this kid is also a disciple of Yueguan, and even has a great relationship with the young master. No, when my sixth brother and I just came out, we were told by the young master’s guard that they have some relationship.” Jiangmo Douluo reminded.
“Xiaoxue?” Qian Daoliu was shocked and asked immediately, “Do you mean that Xiaoxue is related to him?”
“That should be what I mean.” Jiangmo Douluo thought for a while and said, “I don’t have a wife, so I don’t understand it very well, but the meaning of the snake spear should be this.”
“Okay, okay.” After listening to Jiangmo Douluo’s words, Qian Daoliu waved his hand, and the smile on his face slowly solidified. For some reason, he always felt like a cabbage was being pushed by a pig.
After a long silence, Qian Daoliu seemed to be relieved. A gentle voice came out of his mouth with no doubt, “No one can touch this person.”
“He…may be our key.”
The old voice gently hovered in the worship hall. This voice seemed to have magic, causing the surrounding space to solidify slightly.
At this moment, Qianjun Douluo and Jiangmo Douluo were full of shock in their eyes. The fact that the great worshiper Qian Daoliu could say such a weighty word was enough to prove the importance of Cheng Xiao.
…………
A few days later
The contestants from the Tiandou Empire arrived at Wuhun City. Compared with a huge empire like Tiandou City, Wuhun City is naturally much smaller, but it still shocked the soul masters.
Wuhun City, which does not look large in area, has a city wall built in the style of an imperial capital. The 80-meter-high city wall looks extremely majestic from the outside, and the thickness of the city wall is more than 30 meters, all made of granite.
There are various huge reliefs on the surrounding city walls, which are exactly the same as the martial souls on the Pope’s Order of the Wuhun Hall, symbolizing six huge martial souls.
Standing on the carriage, Cheng Xiao looked at the huge city reflecting a light red luster under the afterglow of the setting sun, and breathed a sigh of relief.
“Wuhun City, we are here.” Dugu Bo’s faint voice sounded leisurely. (End of this chapter)
