The officer revealed an incredulous expression, "What? Continue to head to the Pope Hall? Crown Prince, if we encounter an attack by abyssal creatures again along the way, the consequences would be unimaginable!"
"Why not return to the imperial palace first? The matter of going to Pope Hall can be delayed!"
However, Xue Qinghe earnestly replied, "No, the reason for visiting the Pope Hall this time is to discuss extremely important matters. We cannot delay any longer."
The former wanted to say more, "But..."
Ning Fengzhi soothed him, seeing the situation, "Rest assured, we have investigated the area around the soul beast forest and have not detected any presence of abyssal creatures, presumably they have already left!"
Gu Rong nodded affirmatively, "Indeed, this place is not far from the Pope Hall, there is no need to worry about an attack."
The former hesitated for a moment, "Didn't expect even Sect Master Ning and Bone Douluo to say so, then I have no objections!"
Since Sect Master Ning and Bone Douluo have assured, it should unlikely happen again!
"Alright, let's gather the team and proceed to Martial Soul City at full speed!"
Although my teacher and Bone Douluo have conducted investigations, it's not a 100% guarantee that abyssal creatures will not catch up!
To be safe, it's best to proceed at the fastest pace!
The former nodded, "Yes, Crown Prince!"
Then he shouted loudly, "By order of the Crown Prince, immediately proceed to Martial Soul City at full speed!!"
In an instant, these scattered royal soldiers quickly gathered, then without much doubt, they uniformly marched towards Martial Soul City...
Sitting back on the carriage, Xue Qinghe felt somewhat relieved...
Though it was hard for the Serpent Spear Douluo who had been secretly protecting him all along!
Ning Fengzhi looked at him with a complex expression and asked, "Qinghe, are you worried?"
Having faced such an attack, even if the former is intelligent, after all, he is just a child!
I can understand his current mood!
Xue Qinghe did not deny it, nodded, "Hmm... the attack by abyssal creatures this time was indeed thrilling, I hope the journey ahead goes smoothly."
Ning Fengzhi affirmed, "It certainly will."
Then, he glanced at Gu Rong beside him with closed eyes, "Moreover, this time Uncle Bone has fully unleashed his spiritual power, if any abyssal creatures appear, they will be sensed!"
If it were anyone else, they might not be able to confirm the presence of abyssal creatures, but Gu Rong has dealt with abyssal creatures many times, he has some insights now!
Xue Qinghe also glanced at the former, "With a Soul Master expert like Bone Douluo, one indeed feels at ease!"
With two Titled Douluo experts accompanying this trip, I don't have to worry too much!
....
Halosa lightly marked the ground with his slender gray hand, coldly said, "Netherworld Rebirth!"
Visible to the naked eye, dense ghost fires spread out from his body as the center, tainting all the bizarre creatures' bodies with traces of flame...
Standing at the center, he seemed like a god of death from hell!!
Leng Yulai secretly noted, "Is this the Vice Sect Hierarch's ultimate domain, Netherworld Rebirth? Truly terrifying!"
At the least, the sense of crisis it gives surpasses even that of the Sect Hierarch!
"The Vice Sect Hierarch is indeed formidable, casting the domain alone plunges these ants into despair!"
"That's right, the prestige of the Vice Sect Hierarch has resounded throughout the continent since hundreds of years ago!"
"The federation surely didn't expect their covert operation to have been detected by our Holy Spirit Cult, the strongest being merely an ordinary Titled Douluo, hahahaha!!"
Meanwhile, on the federation's side, the Titled Douluo responsible for escorting the mission saw the terrifying domain...
His forehead was covered in cold sweat, uttering tremblingly, "This domain... Netherworld Rebirth, he is the Vice Sect Hierarch of the Holy Spirit Cult, the Nether King Douluo, Halosa! Didn't expect this guy is still alive!!"
This is a Limit Douluo Level expert, in front of him, I am just an ant to be easily crushed!
Halosa sees the former calling out his name, surprisingly said, "Youngster, you recognize me!"
"Unfortunately, you still have to die; of course, if you are willing to submit to our Holy Spirit Cult, you can save your life!"
This Titled Douluo did not respond, instead, he looked at the federation members beside him and said, "I'll cover you, run away!!"
Seeing this, Halosa blandly remarked, "Foolish!"
In my Netherworld Rebirth Domain, they wish to escape, it's simply impossible!
His hand slightly clenched, and the Titled Douluo felt an invisible large hand gripping his neck, lifting him gradually into the air...
Immediately following, an intense suffocation caused his pupils to contract, and veins burst out on his forehead...
Halosa coldly asked again, "I'll ask once more, are you willing to submit to the Holy Spirit Cult?"
The Titled Douluo bit tightly on his words, muttering out a few, "No... not... puh!"
Before finishing his sentence, his body had separated, life essence rapidly perishing...
Only then did Halosa pat his sleeve as if he had done something extremely easy!
Leng Yulai looked at the remaining federation members and Xingluo Empire soldiers, puzzled, "Vice Sect Hierarch, what about these people?"
Halosa unhurriedly said, "Keep the high-ranking one, kill the rest!"
Leng Yulai slightly nodded, a gigantic darkness Phoenix soared across the sky...
Nine soul rings rose slowly from his feet...
As one of the soul rings lit up, the darkness Phoenix spit out scorching black flames, pouring downwards...
The federation members tried to flee, but under the suppression of the Netherworld Rebirth Domain, they couldn't escape the range...
Thus, one by one, they turned into ashes under the extreme heat...
Only the federation's high-ranking member was left, slumped on the ground, staring at the black flames covering the ground, eyes filled with despair...
Halosa walked to his body, eyes flashed with several scornful colors, "Rest assured, you are still useful to us, you won't be killed for now."
The man instinctively retreated a few steps, stammering at the mouth, "You... What exactly are you trying to do?"
Halosa gazed straight into his eyes, "Nothing, just to send a message back to the federation!"
Immediately, relying on his vast spiritual power, directly manipulated the former's memory...
Though doing this ensures he won't live long, the goal has been achieved!
Looking at the unconscious federation high-ranking, casually said, "Clean up the scene, then retreat!"
Leng Yulai took a deep breath and swiftly extinguished the surrounding flames...
The structures began to rapidly collapse thereafter, from the first glance, making the entire stronghold seem like it was attacked by a soul tool...
