Chapter 83 Golden Bloodlust
Before the Moonlit Palace, Ye Yulin put away her level-nine flying soul tool, transformed into a streak of light, and plummeted down, hurriedly stepping into the main hall.
"Xiao Ye, how is it?"
"Master Confucius..."
Ye Yulin looked at Kong Deming's back, which stood with his hands behind his back, and spoke with difficulty:
"We've searched the entire area, but there's been no trace of them. The carriage's route ended when it entered the Western Hills area."
"As you said, the entire West Mountain is inaccessible, let alone explored. According to calculations, the energy contained in that dense resistance at every point far exceeds the total energy stored in our high-energy compression array. With our current energy-concentrating technology, we probably cannot force our way through."
Kong Deming stroked the silver bracelet in his hand in silence. Mingming and Tang Yu had agreed to transmit information through these long-distance sensing soul guides every now and then to ensure safety.
However, a full hour had passed since the bracelet last lit up.
Was it the Emperor? The Holy Spirit Cult? Douluo Three Kingdoms? Or—a simple accident?
"Pass on the Silver Moon Decree!"
"Martial law is to be declared immediately in Mingdu. The Soul Master Corps shall activate the highest level of patrols. Any abnormalities shall be reported immediately."
"Yes." Ye Yulin bowed and accepted the order. Just as he was about to turn around and contact the leaders of the various Soul Master Corps, Kong Deming's next words made his pupils shrink.
"Let our people be prepared."
"...Yes." Ye Yulin responded again, but this time, her voice was much drier.
From afar, Xie Lixin saw the small courtyard and pavilion that he saw as a den of demons, and he paused in his tracks.
He walked briskly to the gate before realizing that his back was covered in cold sweat.
That was too close—the young master's intuition was terrifyingly sharp. He hadn't given himself away at all, yet the young master had still been watching him for so long.
If it weren't for his top-notch military skills honed through years of intelligence work and that miraculous pill that could suppress his heartbeat, blood flow, and even emotional fluctuations to a state of utmost rationality, he probably wouldn't have had the chance to rescue his daughter at all.
I'm sorry, Lord. You've been so good to me, but for my daughter's sake, I have no choice but to do this.
He stood before that unremarkable door, much like those of the surrounding thousands of houses, and calmed his tense mood slightly. The discomfort within him, which seemed to be caused by a mix of guilt and excitement, fluctuated between icy coldness and burning heat.
Xie Lixin raised his hand and knocked lightly on the door, five times in total, three long and two short. Then he took out a round token, his fingertips trembling slightly, and he accidentally dropped it on the ground. After hurriedly picking it up, he pursed his pale lips and stuffed the token into the crack in the door.
It was a completely black plaque with two skulls faintly carved on it.
"Password."
He composed himself and said in a deep voice, "May the Holy Emperor live ten thousand years."
"Squeak!"
The door opened. A dark figure abruptly pulled him inside.
"Is everything done?"
Xie Lixin steadied himself from his kneeling position and looked at the black-robed old man with his back to him. From behind, the man's face seemed to have changed again; his skin was much whiter and more delicate, but his hoarse, dreamlike voice remained unchanged.
"I've done as you said. Now it's your turn to keep your promise and give Shu Yu back to me!"
"Hehe." The Original Sin Douluo chuckled, his laughter as grating as the sound of glass rubbing together.
"What do you mean? Are you trying to go back on your word?" Xie Lixin's eyes were bloodshot. "Let me tell you, I have already deployed more than a dozen military-grade trigger-activated signal missiles on my body, which can notify the Palace Master at any time."
"You bunch of rats in the gutter, all you do is commit these shady deeds. Once the Palace Master finds out that you were the ones who harmed Kong Tianxu, you will all be wiped out!"
With a slight movement of his soul power, countless orange-red orbs of light immediately shone from his body.
"Tsk. Well then—here you go."
Original Sin Douluo stepped aside, allowing him to see what had been hidden by his robe.
If you ignore the scarlet mark on her face, the girl's sleeping posture is graceful and serene, like a sleeping swan.
It was lifeless.
"ah--!"
Xie Lixin looked at the familiar face on the face of the Original Sin Douluo, the face he had raised alone, his pupils bloodshot, and without hesitation detonated all the signal transmission missiles!
The orange-red light expanded violently, only to vanish into nothingness in an instant.
"You dare to show off your level six soul tool in front of me? You bunch of Sun Moon idiots, how could you possibly understand the power of a martial soul?"
"Original Sin Douluo said jokingly."
With a gentle squeeze of his right hand, Xie Lixin's body immediately swelled up slightly.
"Ants like you are destined to be toyed with and then crushed by me. That applies to you, and it applies even more to that brat surnamed Kong."
He admired Xie Lixin's eyes, which bulged outward due to the immense force, her swollen skin, and her wrinkled, girlish face, all with a look of satisfaction.
Xie Lixin's body swelled up more and more terrifyingly, as if he were an inflated balloon. His skin was stretched to its maximum, and the purplish-blue bruises that were clearly visible in his blood vessels were particularly menacing.
That's not right, I definitely didn't use that much force.
Original Sin Douluo raised an eyebrow slightly, then lifted the restriction on his soul power.
In that instant, the cyan and blood-red hues transformed into a rainbow of light that spread! Within Xie Lixin's enormous, over-expanded maw, a core of soul power, condensed to its extreme, faintly emerged.
Then, it erupted with a roar!
A chaotic surge of elemental energy swept in all directions! The super-elemental resonance, which concentrated all of Kong Tianxu's soul power, displayed terrifying power, instantly erupting with a force comparable to a level seven fixed-position soul tool!
Amidst vicious curses, the Sinful Douluo of the Robe-Clad Tower soared into the sky.
Looking at the almost completely destroyed attic and the rapidly illuminating soul-guided lights around it, he gritted his teeth and immediately flew towards a corner of Mingdu.
On the boundless golden plaza, two pairs of deep purple eyes gaze at each other from afar.
Kong Tianxu looked at the young man before him, who also had silver hair and purple eyes, but was enveloped in a milky white halo, and spoke first:
"If I remember correctly, someone should tell me the adventure content for the Deep Adventure level. Who are you?"
"How did you know?"
The man didn't answer his question; instead, he asked with great interest.
"I read it in books. I've read a lot of books since I was a child," Kong Tianxu replied earnestly, his eyes sparkling with jade-like light.
The next second, a flash of golden light appeared, and his soul power instantly decreased by a fraction.
When did he make his move? How could the Myriad Origins Domain have been triggered? Kong Tianxu was shocked.
He activated both Elemental Vision and X-ray Vision. The former seemed to have lost its function, while the latter remained intact, but he could only see that the other party was an unusual white in this golden world.
The man was clearly even more surprised and laughed:
"Although I can't sense your spiritual power, you're clearly lying, yet it feels so real to me?"
Seeing Kong Tianxu's suddenly serious expression, he shook his head:
"There are still a few more to watch, so I won't tease you anymore. Your test in this round is to beat me when I first entered the Seventh Ring. You're unlucky to have accidentally entered this kind of deep adventure. Although I'm happy that the first person I've seen after regaining my freedom in so many years is so interesting, I won't go easy on you."
He smiled, his words no longer light and his face filled with a solemn and dignified expression:
"Holy Spirit, come again to earth!"
Within the holy, platinum-gold light, seven spirit rings—one yellow, two purple, three black, and one red—rose one by one. A phantom slowly emerged from behind it; its torso was long and sharply streamlined, and behind it, like a legendary six-winged angel, six holy wings of light unfurled. Upon closer inspection, however, these were not wings, but rather tendrils resembling bands of light; even its head was formed from similar spiraling bands of light. The golden vertical eyes surrounding its body were incredibly deep, and the pure white halo behind it emitted a mysterious glow.
Sacred, yet twisted.
Kong Tianxu remained silent, his Silver Dragon Martial Soul instantly possessing him. A flash of lightning appeared, and he was already close to the man. Amidst the majestic dragon might, the fifth-ranked black soul ring instantly lit up.
He threw a punch, creating a deafening sonic boom, which instantly slammed into the opponent's chest!
Fifth Soul Skill, Golden Blood Rage, an extreme enhancement of the physical body.
The dragon's wrath shook the heavens.
