Liang Xiaoyu swallowed, forcing a laugh, "Ah... this... So that's how it is. I thought the Sect Leader was testing Tang Wulin, preparing to let him take over the position!"
Zang Xin had a black line on his face, "Hall Master Liang, are you wishing for my quick demise? The Tang Sect only selects a new Sect Leader after the leader passes away!"
"No matter how much I admire that child, I can't violate the rules of the Tang Sect!"
Seeing this, Liang Xiaoyu muttered to himself, "But when you took over as Sect Leader, wasn't Tang Sect Leader still alive?"
In that case, wasn't it the predecessor who broke the Tang Sect rules first?
Zang Xin glared at him and scolded, "That's completely different. At that time, everyone thought the Tang Sect Leader had died from the God-killing soul-guided missile."
"To stabilize the Tang Sect, I was forced to take on the position of Sect Leader!"
This guy, what's wrong with him today!
He seems eager for me to step down as Sect Leader!
Liang Xiaoyu covered his mouth and coughed, "I was just joking, just joking! Don't take it to heart, Sect Leader!"
Guo Xiaoxu and Zhao Song exchanged a glance and immediately pulled him aside...
With a questioning tone, they said, "Hall Master Liang, quickly tell us, what benefit did Tang Wulin give you that made you mention him in front of the Sect Leader!"
"Yeah, yeah, back then Tang Wulin gifted me a piece of Four-Word Battle Armor. Your benefit... must be something rare too!"
Facing their penetrating gaze, Liang Xiaoyu felt a little guilty, "Hall Master Guo, Hall Master Zhao, am I that kind of person?"
"Yes!" came the very synchronized reply!
Liang Xiaoyu scratched his head, "Actually, it's nothing much, just... I think if Tang Wulin becomes the Sect Leader, as a Divine Craftsman, he wouldn't treat us Hall Masters badly."
"Right?"
Guo Xiaoxu squinted his eyes, "Are you sure that's all?"
Liang Xiaoyu straightened his chest, "That's all!"
Zhao Song snorted coldly, "Consider yourself passed, but if you get any good items, don't keep them just for yourself!"
Seeing the three Hall Masters quietly discussing something in front of him, Zang Xin suddenly interrupted, "Alright, enough chit-chat!"
"Currently, the forces of Shrek Academy and the Spirit Pagoda have withdrawn from the Abyss. Relying solely on the Blood God Army, it's feared they won't be able to resist the abyssal creatures!"
"Before they invade the city, we must prepare for the upcoming big battle!"
Guo Xiaoxu's expression immediately turned serious, "Mm, the abyssal creatures have very strong bodies. It's hard to cause effective damage with ordinary soul-guided weapons, we must develop more effective soul-guided weapons!"
Zhao Chong frowned, "But that requires a lot of time, and given the current situation, it's too rushed!"
Liang Xiaoyu's eyes brightened, "Regarding this, the federation has already developed weapons specifically to counter abyssal creatures."
"At the point where the Continent is on the brink of survival, they can't keep this technology hidden, can they?"
Guo Xiaoxu rolled his eyes, "The old guys in the federation's upper echelons are so stubborn, there's no way they're going to share this technology easily!"
Otherwise, why would the Douling Empire take the risk of offending the Tang Sect to develop soul tools?
It's because the federation's technological blockade is too tight, it's impossible for any leaks to occur!
Zhao Song took a deep breath, "Why not... let that kid Tang Wulin pressure the federation via the Sea God's Pavilion? With his position as the Sea God Pavilion Master, it shouldn't be difficult!"
Zang Xin pondered for a bit, then shook his head, "The Sea God's Pavilion? If it was before the Abyssal battle, maybe it could have worked, but now the Sea God's Pavilion has lost three Elders, plus Shrek Academy has been obliterated by the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Masters, there's no confidence to confront the federation!"
The three Hall Masters fell silent...
Indeed, the only reason Shrek Academy could challenge the federation!
One is the reputation of being the number one academy on the Land! The other is the numerous strong Elders of the Sea God's Pavilion!
Now with Shrek Academy destroyed, the Sea God's Pavilion Elders dead or injured, its status has plummeted!
Guo Xiaoxu sighed, "The Sect Leader is right, whether the Tang Sect can survive this war, it seems we'll have to rely on ourselves!"
"I'll go now to start the research with the Tang Sect disciples..."
...
Faced with this move, Ming Emperor and the Dark Bell were forced to unleash their Martial Soul, levitating in mid-air...
The former seemed to remember something, coldly saying, "Why does this guy's ability remind me so much of the recorded ferocious beast, Titan Ape?"
The Dark Bell hesitated a bit, then replied, "It should be a coincidence, their aura is definitely human!"
Having dodged continuous attacks, the Titan Ape was clearly a bit irritated, "You are quite good at dodging, but what about this move? Giant Ape Power!"
Instantly, the bloodline within him was fully activated, and all his clothing shattered, revealing those incredibly solid muscles...
The next moment, he charged like a meteor towards the Dark Bell...
The latter naturally wouldn't just sit and wait for death, the soul ring under her feet started blinking...
Second Soul Skill, Soul Capturing Bell Sound!
The bell behind her emitted a piercing sound, spreading in wave patterns...
The unstoppable Titan Ape clearly heard the sound...
Immediately after, he paused, his eyes filled with a few strands of confusion...
The Dark Bell was delighted, secretly thinking, "It worked!"
But before she could think any further, the Titan Ape's eyes cleared, appearing right in front of her in an instant, and then striking out with a punch...
Realizing belatedly, the Dark Bell could only extend her arms to block...
But upon contact, she realized the opponent's power was terrifying!
The whole person was forcibly blasted hundreds of meters away before barely stabilizing herself, her arms filled with a numbness...
"Such terrifying power, this is not something a human can achieve!"
However, what puzzled her more was that the Titan Ape had clearly been hit by her second soul skill, yet could recover in just a few seconds...
Even opponents of the same level couldn't do that at all!
The Titan Ape disdainfully said, "Hmph, it seems the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Master's strength is nothing more than this!"
Even resisting a single punch was so difficult, the opponent was just so-so!
But unexpectedly, upon hearing this, the Dark Bell suddenly gave a cold smile, "Is that so? Then try this move!"
The fifth soul ring under her feet lit up...
Fifth Soul Skill, Devouring Bell Wind Lament!
As the bell swayed again, countless dark green Resentful Spirits emerged, rushing towards the former with a low wailing sound...
The Titan Ape naturally wasn't going to submit, itching to try, "Hmph, watch me punch them into bits!"
However, the Azure Oxpython urgently reminded, "Second brother, dodge quickly!! This soul skill targets the soul!"
As a soul beast revived using soul bones by Tang San, their soul is a fatal weakness!
Hearing this, the Titan Ape exclaimed, "What??"
Clearly, these Resentful Spirits had already materialized, yet they target the soul!
