Feeling the benefits brought by the Flame of Life, Huo Yuhao hesitated no longer and leapt straight into the sea of fire.
Green flames swallowed him whole. The last thing everyone saw was the sudden surge of gray energy—under the nourishment of the Flame of Life, the power of creation seemed to grow far stronger.
Ye Lingling and Gu Yuena watched without blinking. Even seeing Huo Yuhao completely naked failed to stir any reaction in them.
For Ye Lingling, she had long since regarded herself as Huo Yuhao's woman. Though there was a hint of shyness, what filled her heart far more was worry.
Gu Yuena, naturally unconcerned with such trivialities, let her gaze pierce through the Flame of Life. What she saw was Huo Yuhao, wrapped simultaneously by the green flames and the gray energy.
She had long paid attention to this Flame of Life. She even hoped that once Ye Lingling's cultivation improved in the future, it might be able to help treat the hidden injuries within her own body.
As for the power of creation, Gu Yuena was equally intrigued. She could clearly sense that this power was slowly reshaping Huo Yuhao's body, guiding it toward a more perfect state—or perhaps, toward evolution.
The power of creation?
She wasn't entirely certain. The power of creation bore some resemblance to the power of genesis.
The power of genesis was a primordial force above life energy itself, capable of simulating any ability.
It sounded impressive, but in truth it was just that—so-so. Gu Yuena herself had inherited the Dragon God's power of genesis, yet she was still helpless against the Shura God's power within her body.
From her perception, the power of creation focused on reconstruction—as if it could govern the authority over the forms of living beings. However, it could not generate life energy itself. Of course, it could also control the forms of inanimate objects.
Put simply, it could alter a living being's species—turning a pig into a dog, for instance. This change was a comprehensive reconstruction, from bloodline to form, making it exceedingly peculiar.
However, unlike the power of genesis, the power of creation possessed no healing ability.
Or rather, the power of creation could be seen as a weakened and mutated variant of the power of genesis. Both delved deeply into the study of life, yet their manifestations were fundamentally different.
The situation at hand was this: the Flame of Life was slowly healing Huo Yuhao's injuries, while the power of creation, drawing upon the Flame of Life's energy, began to remodel his body. Naturally, this remodeling was entirely beneficial.
This process would take a long time. With her own soul power insufficient, Ye Lingling directly drew spiritual energy from the Bright Realm.
Under her guidance, the Flame of Life burned without weakening. The inferno raged on for three days and three nights.
Meanwhile, far away within the territory of the Heavenly Soul Empire, Heavenly Court faced the greatest crisis since its founding.
The Sea God Pavilion joined forces with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, Xuanming Sect, Snow Demon Sect, Dragon-Slaying Sect, and the Heavenly Soul Imperial Family to form a six-party alliance—and formally declared war on Heavenly Court.
Leading the charge was the ninety-eight-rank Gluttony Douluo, Xuanzi. Accompanying him were Bright Phoenix Douluo Yan Shaozhe, Martial God Douluo Xian Lin'er, and her husband Qian Duoduo.
The Heavenly Soul Imperial Consecration Hall dispatched three Title Douluo: Heavenly Might Douluo Yang Poshang, a rank-97 Super Douluo; and the rank-95 Crazy Thunder Douluo and Soul-Suppressing Douluo. The Soul-Suppressing Douluo was named Yang Guozhen, whose martial soul was the Soul-Breaking Spear—he was Yang Poshang's younger brother.
The Yang family thus produced two Title Douluo, both serving in the imperial consecration hall. Of course, their ability to reach this level was largely due to the cultivation resources supplied by the royal family.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect was led by Sect Master Yu Tianming and First Elder Yu Yuanba. Both possessed the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul. Yu Tianming was rank 95, while Yu Yuanba stood at rank 92.
The Xuanming Sect likewise sent two Title Douluo: Xu Buju at rank 93, and Supreme Elder Xu Tianwei at rank 92.
Snow Demon Sect sent Mu Yuzhu, a rank-92 Title Douluo—and also the only Title Douluo the sect possessed.
The Dragon-Slaying Sect was the weakest of all. Sect Master Ling Batian was merely a Soul Douluo, with cultivation at rank 87, still far from breaking through to Title Douluo. One could only wonder what confidence he had to dare participate in such a war.
All told, in this joint declaration of war—Shrek Academy allied with four major sects and the Heavenly Soul Imperial Family—the force deployed consisted of:
One rank-98 Title Douluo
Two rank-97 Super Douluo
Four rank-95 Title Douluo
One rank-94 Title Douluo
One rank-93 Title Douluo
Two rank-92 Title Douluo
A total of twelve Title Douluo—more than half of them Super Douluo.
With such a lineup, even if the Body Sect and Heavenly Court joined forces, victory would be far from guaranteed.
And in fact, the Body Sect was already part of Shrek's considerations.
Behind the twelve Title Douluo were more than twenty Soul Douluo, nearly thirty Soul Sages, and over a hundred Soul Emperors.
Beyond that, the Heavenly Soul Imperial Family mobilized elite city defense troops from surrounding cities, forming an army of tens of thousands that sealed off Heavenly Court from the east, west, and north.
Once Heavenly Court detected the incoming enemies, it immediately activated its grand protective formation.
Seven divine beams surged skyward from the Seven Halls, converging above the Central Holy Hall before transforming into a vast golden barrier that enveloped the entire Heavenly Court.
Outside the barrier, Xuanzi and the other Title Douluo watched coldly, while their subordinates unleashed a relentless barrage of attacks upon the formation.
Ice spikes, flames, wind blades—countless attacks slammed into the barrier.
The barrier took the form of an inverted hemispherical dome, appearing to be pieced together from countless hexagonal transparent crystals.
Whenever an attack struck it, the impacted area lit up instantly, its defensive strength skyrocketing.
An interesting formation, Xuanzi thought inwardly. It can actually adjust the defensive strength of different areas based on incoming attacks.
It felt oddly familiar—very much like that little bastard Huo Yuhao's defensive soul skill.
"Elder Xuan, if this continues, it won't work. When should we make our move?"Seeing that their men couldn't break the barrier, Yang Poshang grew anxious.
Xuanzi waved his hand calmly, looking entirely at ease."No rush. There's no need to waste so much effort. Just watch carefully."
Yang Poshang didn't understand, his gaze shifting toward the majestic structures within the barrier.
This was less a declaration of war and more an outright ambush. They hadn't even bothered to announce a reason to the outside world.
But none of that mattered. Once Heavenly Court was destroyed, wouldn't charges be easy to fabricate?
Colluding with enemies? Betraying the nation? Associating with soul beasts? As long as they wished it, framing them would be effortless.
Inside Heavenly Court, the Seven Hall Masters had gathered before the Holy Hall. The atmosphere was tense, panic gripping their hearts.
The alliance led by Shrek was simply too terrifying—twelve Title Douluo alone was an overwhelming force.
Looking at their own side, they had only three Title Douluo. The Ice Empress possessed Title-level combat power as well, but even so, how could they compare to the monsters outside?
Since its founding, Heavenly Court had attracted a large number of soul masters with its generous待遇. The combined number across the Seven Halls exceeded two thousand—but most were low-level soul masters.
At present, they had only fifteen Soul Douluo, twenty-three Soul Sages, and nearly sixty Soul Emperors.
Compared to the alliance outside, the disparity was glaring.
