Douluo: The True Eye

Chapter 143: The Fall of Shrek

Star Luo City, Star Luo Imperial Palace.

Four titled Douluo-level enshrined protectors stood behind Emperor Xu Jiawei of Star Luo, looking at the suddenly appearing Gluttonous Douluo with surprise and uncertainty.

“May I ask why Gluttonous Douluo has chosen to visit at this time?”

The Star Luo Emperor asked, puzzled, seemingly very curious as to why Xuan Zi would come looking for him at this moment.

Xuan Zi saw the strangeness in their expressions: “I have come here naturally for important matters. Is there something inappropriate? Why do you all look as if you’ve seen a ghost?”

Xuan Zi originally intended to inform the Star Luo Empire's Emperor of the results he and Poison Undying had discussed.

After all, the Heaven Dou Empire was quite a distance from the Star Luo Empire, and even at his speed, it had taken him half a day.

Seeing that Xuan Zi seemed completely unaware, the Star Luo Emperor pondered for a moment.

Then, he tentatively said, “We originally thought that with such a major event occurring in Shrek City…”

“Gluttonous Douluo, you should be stationed in the city. That’s why we find it strange. Is there anything that my Star Luo Empire can assist with?”

Xuan Zi became more and more confused: “Xu Jia, explain it clearly. What major event? What assistance? Why don’t I know what you’re talking about?”

Seeing that Xuan Zi truly seemed to be unaware, the Star Luo Emperor no longer concealed anything.

“Late last night, it is said that a group of evil soul masters took advantage of the darkness to attack Shrek City.”

“At that time, the entire Shrek City fell into turmoil and chaos, even with Shrek Academy stationed there.”

“It is even said that the night sky was illuminated by the means left behind by Dragon God Douluo, thereby repelling the evil soul masters.”

“However, most of Shrek City was destroyed, resulting in heavy losses.”

“However, the specific losses are probably only known within Shrek, and this is a message that I only received an hour ago.”

Speaking to this point, the Star Luo Emperor paused.

This news, of course, did not come through ordinary channels, but was transmitted by the secret agents of their Star Luo Empire's royal family lurking in Shrek City.

However, although they are called secret agents, this is actually a tacit understanding between the major empires and Shrek Academy throughout history, so revealing this information at this time is not considered a problem.

However, at this moment, Xuan Zi seemed to be stunned in place, and the terrifying soul power, accompanied by a low air pressure, made the several titled enshrined protectors present feel a burst of horror.

Without waiting for the Star Luo Emperor to add anything, the sound of air being torn apart erupted in the hall, and Xuan Zi's figure had already disappeared without a trace.

At this moment, Xuan Zi was full of regret.

He regretted why he had coveted that bit of vanity, not fulfilling his mission and instead lingering in Heaven Dou City.

He regretted why he was gluttonous and fond of drinking, wasting precious time in restaurants.

He regretted why he had been angered by alcohol and fought with the Golden Body Douluo without regard for the consequences.

Regret, regret, regret, it was too late to regret! There was no regret medicine in the world.

A big mistake had already been made, and now he could only return to Shrek City at the fastest speed in an attempt to remedy the situation.

However, when Xuan Zi arrived at Shrek City, this once largest city on the Douluo Continent was now dilapidated.

The other three city walls were still barely intact, but the east gate, which was closest to the Shrek Academy headquarters, had been completely destroyed.

The streets and buildings were also full of the remnants of the evil soul masters' rampage, and the sinister dark aura lingered for a long time, and the resentment of the dead souls still remained in the streets and alleys of Shrek City.

When Xuan Zi's figure appeared in the sky above Shrek City, Elder Lin, who was maintaining order and handling the aftermath in the city, also saw him.

Then, with a flash, a slap landed on Xuan Zi's face.

Without dodging or avoiding, Xuan Zi blankly took the slap. Compared to the incomparably angry Elder Lin, Xuan Zi at this time just lowered his head and said nothing.

The story must start after Xuan Zi left.

After Xuan Zi left Shrek Academy, it only took him half a day to reach Heaven Dou City.

Then, eating and drinking took another two days, plus the battle with Jin Peng, the negotiation with Poison Undying, and finally, including rushing to Star Luo City and returning to Shrek City.

It was now the fourth day since Xuan Zi left Shrek Academy.

Logically speaking, he should have completed the negotiation with Poison Undying on the second day, and then rushed back to Shrek Academy first.

After discussing with a group of Sea God Pavilion elders, the next step would be planned.

It was only because of his gluttony and arrogance that the evil soul masters of the Holy Spirit Church were given ample preparation time.

On the second day after Xuan Zi left, the people of the Holy Spirit Church crossed most of the Douluo Continent and came to the outskirts near Shrek City.

Looking at the several titled Douluo-level evil soul masters beside him, Zhongli Wu's eyes flashed with a cold light: “If a few of us take action directly, the target is too big.”

Fifth Elder, Ten Thousand Souls Douluo, Martial Soul Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

Named after a type of soul tool commonly used by the Holy Spirit Cult, in fact, those soul tools are all imitations of this Ten Thousand Souls Douluo's martial soul.

He is good at controlling a large number of wraiths to entangle enemies in battle. However, in addition to its role on the frontal battlefield, this Fifth Elder has also done a lot of research on the control of wraiths.

Sixth Elder, Abomination Douluo, Martial Soul Abomination.

In addition to his own strong attack-type combat methods, he is good at spreading highly infectious and highly lethal plagues.

However, because the commotion caused by spreading the plague is too great, it is not suitable for direct action, but rather as an auxiliary strategy.

Eighth Elder, Nightmare Douluo, Martial Soul Nightmare Demon.

He is good at mental power, and what is different from Ten Thousand Souls Douluo is that he is better at controlling the mental power of living people.

Therefore, he is the main leader of this operation, with the other two elders assisting.

By kidnapping passers-by outside Shrek City, Nightmare uses mental power to control them and make them carry soul guide bombs with them.

Then, wraiths and plagues were buried in their bodies, turning them into human flesh bombs.

In this way, after another day of action, the Holy Spirit Cult and others completed the initial preparations.

Although it is said that in order to avoid being detected by the titled powerhouse guarding Shrek Academy, the efficiency of the action was greatly delayed.

However, as these human flesh bombs carrying wraiths and plagues were scattered throughout Shrek City, the Holy Spirit Cult's actions officially began!

That night, while Xuan Zi was fighting fiercely with Jin Peng, terrifying explosions occurred everywhere in Shrek City.

And with the occurrence of explosions, in addition to the damage caused by the detonation of soul guide bombs, a large number of wraiths and green plague poisonous gas broke out in Shrek City.

In the blink of an eye, two-thirds of Shrek City was affected, and such a large commotion naturally alerted the powerful figures stationed within Shrek City at the first moment.

"Third Elder, Fourth Elder, Fifth Elder, Sixth Elder, Seventh Elder, Eighth Elder, Sixth Offering, you hold back the Shrek powerhouses coming to support."

For this plan, the Holy Spirit Church's powerhouses had come out in full force, although they had not mobilized all of their followers.

However, most of the Holy Spirit Church's high-level members who could spare the time had gathered here.

Then, Zhongli Wu smiled sinisterly: "As for this Pope and the Vice Pope, we will go and welcome the return of our Holy Church's Fire Phoenix Saintess."

"Yes, Your subordinate obeys."

Several elders revealed their martial souls and auras one after another, then ascended the eastern wall of Shrek City and began to wreak havoc, thereby attracting the attention of the Shrek powerhouses rushing to support.

Just as several elders were displaying their abilities, Zhongli Wu led Vice Pope Feng Ling and followed Zhongli Wu, entering Shrek City from a gap in the city wall that no one noticed.

According to various intelligence gathered previously, they avoided the Shrek powerhouses along the way and sneaked towards the direction of Shrek Academy.

Under the cover of night and several elders, the Shrek elders who were guarding Shrek City were in chaos for a time.

After all, with the Sea God Pavilion Master absent, there was no leader, and the attack on Shrek City this time was so serious.

Therefore, except for a few deans who remained in Shrek Academy to guard against unforeseen circumstances, the other elders who could still move left Shrek Academy to besiege those Holy Spirit Church elders.

This time, after alarming Shrek Academy, there were so many powerhouses that even the Evil Soul Master Title Douluo combat power was far superior to ordinary Title Douluos, but they were still fighting and retreating.

Fortunately, with the advantage of the terrain, the Shrek powerhouses were constrained in their combat, and for a while, they could not take down these Title Douluo powerhouses among the Evil Soul Masters.

An elder said angrily: "Hateful, hateful, where did these Evil Soul Masters come from? Damn it, hasn't Xuanzi returned yet?"

Although there were no top Super Douluos among these Evil Soul Masters, they were enough to contend with the constrained Shrek powerhouses.

If they were to be taken down in a short time and the damage to Shrek City was minimized, then there must be a powerhouse with crushing strength to take action.

However, the strongest Shrek powerhouse present was Song Lao, who was at level 97. As an agility-attack Super Douluo, although her speed was unparalleled, her combat power was not strong enough.

After being held back by Third Elder Underworld Lightning Douluo and Fourth Elder Netherworld Douluo, as well as Sixth Offering Scorpion Tiger Douluo, a level 96 Super Douluo, the other Shrek elders did not have the means to make a final decision.

The rhythm of the battle gradually turned into a protracted war. Although it was only a matter of time before the Shrek powerhouses defeated the enemy due to the difference in strength between the two sides, time was of the essence!

Under the influence of the aftermath of the battle, the rampage of vengeful spirits, and the plague, civilians and soul masters in Shrek City were constantly suffering casualties.

At this time, in addition to the anxious battlefield in the city, the Sea God Pavilion in Shrek Academy was also under attack!

In order to protect the students and teachers still in the academy, several remaining deans and inner court students went to the outer court to stand guard.

But they had never guarded against the Evil Soul Masters actually attacking the safest place in Shrek Academy, the Sea God Pavilion on Sea God Island.

And this was all thanks to the information previously gathered by Jing Hongchen.

Through trading with him, the Holy Spirit Church paid some price and obtained some structural diagrams of the interior of Shrek Academy.

Among them, the most important was naturally the structure of the inner court. After all, no one except Jing Hongchen knew about the inner court of Shrek Academy.

Although the previous invasion of the Holy Spirit Church had played a slight warning role, the cunning Zhongli Wu, seeing that things could not be done, did not go all out.

On the contrary, it made Shrek relax a lot of vigilance. After all, after the last direct attack, Shrek Academy only suffered a slight loss and repelled the Holy Spirit Church.

In their opinion, the Evil Soul Masters were nothing more than that, who knew that this time the Holy Spirit Church would actually play a trick and directly hit the soft underbelly of Shrek Academy.

A huge Evil Eye phantom appeared on Sea God Island. Accompanied by a silver mental beam that reached the sky, a gap was torn open in the phantom of the Golden Ancient Tree where the Sea God Pavilion was located.

At this time, a huge and dark fire aura rose up, burning from the roots of the Golden Ancient Tree. Under internal and external troubles, the Golden Ancient Tree barely stimulated a huge force of light to contend.

Even Mu En's remaining obsession was awakened at this time.

Mu En's remaining soul sensed the devastated Shrek City at this time, and the mental power and dark fire that were constantly impacting the defense of the Golden Ancient Tree sighed leisurely.

The huge force of light did not erupt, but left a gap, letting Ma Xiaotao, who was stimulated by Feng Ling's evil phoenix aura and fell into a runaway state due to the dark fire in her body, go.

"The Fire Phoenix Saintess is in hand, retreat!" Zhongli Wu directly captured Ma Xiaotao and hurriedly took Feng Ling to evacuate this place.

However, Mu En did not pursue and severely injure these Evil Soul Masters. Although relying on the power accumulated by the Golden Ancient Tree, it was more than enough to destroy these Evil Soul Masters.

However, he only used a small part of his power to drive away these Evil Soul Masters, and then used a part of the power of the Golden Ancient Tree to purify the plague and vengeful spirits in Shrek City.

Mu En's will, with the help of the Golden Ancient Tree, looked far into the direction of the Star Dou Great Forest.

In the darkness of the Star Dou Great Forest, accompanied by a cold snort, the owner of the huge golden eyes turned and retreated to the deeper fierce land of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Because he was afraid of Beast God Di Tian, although Shrek City suffered heavy losses this time, Mu En still did not dare to easily use the foundation of the Golden Ancient Tree.

After all, the foundation of the Golden Ancient Tree can be said to be the last deterrent of Shrek Academy, and it must never be used casually unless it is absolutely necessary.

It was precisely because of this that Di Tian felt somewhat disappointed. After all, the biggest reason why he cooperated with the Holy Spirit Church and the Sun Moon Empire.

The biggest reason was also to consume the foundation of Shrek City effortlessly, so that it would expose its trump card and test whether Shrek Academy really had a connection with the God Realm.

It's just that although the Holy Spirit Church achieved good results this time, it did not meet Di Tian's own expectations.

"Look, look, look!" Lin Lao grabbed Xuanzi's collar and said angrily: "It's smashed, it's smashed, everything is smashed!"

"Everything that my Shrek has accumulated for ten thousand years has been destroyed in your hands! I want to see what face you, Xuanzi, have to see Mu Lao again!"
