Sun-Moon Empire, practice field...
Before Wind Douluo and Blazing Sun Douluo stood nearly tens of thousands of Soul Masters clad in armor!
They were the elite troops of the Sun-Moon Empire, all carrying various types of high-grade soul tools. The sight of the dense, swarming heads alone was intimidating!
Wind Douluo glanced at Blazing Sun Douluo and barked, "Everyone, listen up! Our goal is to crush the Sky Soul Empire! So, this time, bring your A-game!!"
"Don't be like a certain someone, sent scurrying by someone else's plaything creatures!!"
The elite Soul Masters below clearly understood whom Wind Douluo was mocking, all shouting, "Yes, Lord Wind Douluo!!"
On the other side...
Blazing Sun Douluo's face darkened as he heard these words, his gaze fixed deadly on Wind Douluo...
The latter seemed to sense his gaze and revealed a mocking cold smile...
The elite Soul Masters in front of Blazing Sun Douluo spoke up one after another, "Lord Blazing Sun Douluo, it sounds like they're making fun of you over there!"
"Exactly, it's obviously about you, my lord!"
"How can you swallow such an insult? I can't swallow it for you!"
Blazing Sun Douluo looked at the Soul Master before him, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Oh? How about you go and talk to that guy then?"
The Soul Master coughed twice, "Cough cough... I... was just kidding... my lord."
Blazing Sun Douluo then turned his gaze to all the Soul Masters and coldly snapped, "I don't have much to say to you. I assume since you're part of our Sun-Moon Empire's elite Soul Master Troop, you all have decent brains. Don't be like a certain someone who rushes in without understanding the situation and gets completely wiped out!"
The elite Soul Masters below all stifled their laughter...
Seeing this, Wind Douluo's eyes quietly narrowed...
Then, he let out a cold "Hmph!" and declared, "Everyone, move out now, attack the Sky Soul Empire!!"
An earth-shattering response came from below...
"Yes!!! Lord Wind Douluo!"
After those words, the Soul Masters led by Wind Douluo quickly stepped away from the place, heading toward the Sky Soul Empire...
Blazing Sun Douluo glanced at them and then turned to the elite Soul Masters before him, shouting loudly, "We move out as well! Our target: flatten the Xingluo Empire!!"
"Flatten the Xingluo Empire!! Flatten the Xingluo Empire!!"
...
In the midst of Sea God's Lake...
All that could be heard from Huo Yuhao's mouth were the "woo woo woo" sounds of his breath...
The voices of Skydream Ice Silkworm and Ice Emperor echoed in his mind...
Skydream Ice Silkworm spoke with apprehension, "Yuhao, maybe we should leave. That man is definitely not simple!"
The Ice Emperor agreed, "Hmm! Skydream is right, that man somehow made me feel fear! You should know, even when I faced Di Tian, I never felt like this!"
She was indeed very wary of Di Tian, as he was an Emperor with eight hundred thousand years of cultivation, stronger than her!
But that was just being wary, far from actual fear!
Yet just now, that man gave off the feeling of a supreme powerhouse standing at the pinnacle of strength, involuntarily arousing a sense of fear deep within her...
Huo Yuhao opened his defensive soul guidance device while being constrained in the water, instantly forming a light barrier that isolated the seawater...
Only then did he raise his eyebrows and say, "Brother Tianmeng, Ice Emperor, could it be that you sensed it wrong? Why do I only feel like he's more like an ordinary person?"
Skydream Ice Silkworm paused, "This... that's also a possibility. If you're set on going down there, be ready to use the Gate of the Undead to escape at any moment!"
It, too, hadn't sensed an aura of a strong person from Xu Sheng; it only felt a bit mysterious...
The Ice Emperor added, "Hmm! After all, when that moment comes, it'll be too late to react!"
Huo Yuhao nodded, "Don't worry, I know."
Immediately, he boosted himself with Soul Power and plunged at high speed towards the bottom of the lake...
A few minutes later, he had already reached the bottom of Sea God's Lake, yet the surroundings were just empty water, and there was no sign of Xu Sheng...
Huo Yuhao narrowed his eyes in confusion and said, "Where did that man go? How did he disappear?"
The Skydream Ice Silkworm in his mind spoke up, "Yuhao! The structure of this space is somewhat unstable, it seems that the man used a Spatial Soul Skill."
Huo Yuhao's pale blue eyes suddenly lit up, "Spatial Soul Skill?"
The next moment, he released his Necromancy Gate right in front of him, accurately recorded the current position, and then stepped into it...
After the Gate of the Undead had completely vanished, the Huo Yuhao inside controlled it to continue moving downward, ultimately breaking through the seal below...
...
When the Necromancy Gate reopened, Huo Yuhao stepped out, his gaze instinctively sweeping around, pupils filled with a look of shock...
He was no longer at the bottom of Sea God's Lake, but in another space entirely!
Coming back to his senses, he said in some disbelief, "There's actually another space below Sea God's Lake, I'm afraid even Elder Xuan and the others haven't discovered it, right?!"
"Right, that man..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he heard a cold voice behind him...
"Are you looking for me?"
Standing behind him was none other than Xu Sheng!
Hearing this, a chilling sensation rose up Huo Yuhao's back, and he bolted a few steps forward before carefully turning around to look at Xu Sheng...
Decisively, he released his Ice Jade Emperor Crab Martial Soul, and eight crimson Soul Rings slowly rose from his feet...
That's right, his Soul Power Rank had also reached that of a Soul Douluo!
Then, he coldly shouted at Xu Sheng, "Who exactly are you? How do you know there's a space beneath Sea God's Lake, and what's your purpose for coming here?"
Xu Sheng glanced at the eight hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings under Huo Yuhao's feet, a flicker of surprise in his eyes...
He then said with a faint smile, "Kid, with so many questions, how do you expect me to answer you?"
Having eight hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings, this kid's talent is not bad either...
Well, but compared to myself back in the day, he's still a bit weaker...
Hearing Xu Sheng's words, Huo Yuhao was taken aback but didn't lower his guard at all, "Kid? Aren't you around the same age as me?"
Xu Sheng gave him a look and said indifferently, "Whatever you say."
Having said that, he turned around to leave...
Huo Yuhao clenched his teeth and burst out with terrifying Soul Power, charging forward, "Stop, who are you really..."
Just then, Xu Sheng, with his back to him, caused the space around him to destabilize instantly...
In just the blink of an eye...
"Boom!" A thunderous noise echoed all around, and Huo Yuhao was completely suppressed against the wall by the terrifying power of space, unable to move at all...
Unable to even speak, all he could do was widen his eyes and watch Xu Sheng walk away...
He was inwardly shocked, "How is this possible!! This man can actually manipulate the space around us at will to suppress me! And I have eight hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings!"
Just as he was feeling frustrated, he heard Xu Sheng's unbelievably calm voice beside his ear again...
"Before I leave, you can reflect against the wall here..."
