—------------------—
The bright capital was vast, the moon hung high in the sky, and the fierce battle had cracked the earth. Large tracts of land seemed to have turned into an ancient battlefield, with blood everywhere.
Xu Tianxi stepped down from the sky, his eyes piercing with light like a knife, sweeping across every evil soul master, as if he was thinking about how to kill them.
He quickly made a decision and issued an order: "Capture them all alive and seal their soul power on the spot. They destroyed the Imperial Prison, and they will suffer the same fate as these people!"
"Yes!" Qiangu and his son and Ice Bear King Xiaobai agreed, and all took their troops to capture the remnants of the Holy Spirit Church who were about to lose their fighting spirit.
When the chains were put on their bodies, some masters of the Holy Spirit Sect wanted to resist, which aroused their desire to survive.
However, Xu Tianxi was like a Jedi killer god high in the sky. Once someone resisted, his eyes would immediately shine with divine light and radiate penetratingly.
The bright moon behind him shone with Qinghua, and his mental offensive reached its peak in history during this period. Zhongli Wu and Long Xiaoyao would not have an easy time resisting. Any resister who was hit would be directly pierced through the sea of spirituality, and his body and soul would be destroyed.
In previous battles, he had hardly ever used the power of his first martial soul. It was not because he couldn't, but because he had to hold back. He had a premonition that tonight's battle would not be that simple.
A large number of masters of the Holy Spirit Sect fell here, the Xuanming Sect and the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect entered the Sun and Moon Empire, the elites of Shrek and Haotian Sect were almost wiped out, the Body Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family were seriously injured, and the Sea God Island also suffered losses. It was really shocking.
As one side gained strength while the other declined, the top combat forces of the original three countries could hardly compete with Sun and Moon after this battle.
If someone wants to attack him, now is the last chance; otherwise, the original three kingdoms will surely fall to the soul guide army of the Sun-Moon Empire in the future, and the Lord of the Sea will not be able to force his way down to the mortal world and threaten the orphans and widows this time.
After all, his so-called "daughter" had been taken away, and his biggest advantage was lost.
Soon, the remaining members of the Holy Spirit Cult were captured alive. Qiangu Canghai counted the number of people and stepped forward to report the number:
"Prince, there are two Super Douluo, three Titled Douluo, twelve Soul Douluo, and more than twenty Soul Saints here. We have captured them all."
"Yan Shaozhe has also been re-abducted by us. The tenth elder of the Haotian Sect was not strong enough and died in the melee."
Xu Tianxi glanced down at the man who had returned to prison. He nodded slightly and sighed:
"It's been twelve years, and it's finally time to end it."
He walked towards Yan Shaozhe with brisk steps, the air carrying his feet. Every time he took a step, ripples of space like water splashed on the ground.
"Yan Shaozhe, it's been many years since we last met. Do you still remember the little boy we used to be?"
Xu Tianxi spoke in a loud voice, walking like a dragon and a tiger. The aura he exuded naturally made Qiangu and his son feel chest tightness. They felt much better after circulating their soul power to protect their bodies.
Gu Zhaoqiu came lightly behind him, her battle armor and spear stained with blood. She had just killed a Titled Douluo, and she stared at Yan Shaozhe with murderous intent.
At this point, how could Yan Shaozhe still not know who Xu Tianxi was? His face showed an extremely complicated expression: regret, hatred, disbelief, trance...
Yan Shaozhe raised his head with difficulty, looking up at the handsome Xu Tianxi, pulling the corners of his dry mouth, making an ugly smile, and muttered:
"I remember, of course I remember. I've lived for a hundred years, and you're the only child who's ever beaten me. But I never expected, I really never expected, that child who hadn't even awakened his martial spirit and relied on that old man to get ahead, could actually cultivate to this level?"
"Heaven has doomed Yan Shaozhe..."
Yan Shaozhe sighed dejectedly, his expression bleak. All kinds of past events came flooding back to his mind, revolving around him like a revolving lantern...
In the past, he visited Xuanming Sect and praised the glory of Shrek, but was slapped by a child who was ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth. He was indignant and instigated the Xuanming Mistress to exclude him. Within two years, she made him run away from home and he never heard from her again. He gradually stopped paying attention to her.
What right did a little kid with an innate seventh-level talent have to challenge Shrek? There was no need to care.
But soon, a young man appeared in the Sun-Moon Empire and led the Sun-Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy. He snatched the championship from Shrek and killed his beloved disciple Xiaotao and his wife Cai Meir, which made him very angry and he wanted to eat them alive.
More things are still happening. In the battle of Xingluo, Qian Duoduo, his bad friend who had been arguing with him all his life and was always suppressed by him, was captured and soon died.
In revenge raid on the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, Xian Lin'er died tragically, Old Dong died in battle, and Old Song was captured alive and disappeared.
Now… he too had collapsed in Mingdu, lying there like a corpse, powerless to resist, a lamb to be slaughtered, suffering humiliation and about to be beheaded…
Thinking of this, Yan Shaozhe found strength from nowhere, pressed his legs to stand up, leaned against a few gravel, and tried his best to make a heroic gesture, shouting:
"Do you want to seek retribution for your mother's death? Come on! My Yan Shaozhe's head is right here! Come and take it if you dare!"
He raised his neck, patted it with his hands, and said with a sneer: "Grandpa's neck is stiff, you'd better use a little more strength, otherwise your little strength won't be enough!"
Xu Tianxi walked closer, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he slowly pulled out his right hand from behind his back and asked:
"When did I ever say that to settle our grudge I would have to kill you here?"
"Although I didn't kill Cai Mei'er, Qian Duoduo, and Xian Lin'er in a very dignified manner, and even this cell of yours was where I beheaded Qian Duoduo, you, Yan Shaozhe, are different after all. Don't worry too much."
Yan Shaozhe's expression changed, and he said in shock: "You killed all three of them?! You beast, what do you want to do to this dean?!"
Xu Tianxi didn't care about Yan Shaozhe's scolding. He smiled, slowed down his tone, and said:
"I once thought of giving you a way out. If you're willing to hold a tribute ceremony in Mingdu in the name of the last Shrek Academy dean, and ideally have some dancing and entertainment during festivals, then the Sun-Moon Empire won't be short of an identity certificate for you."
"Dean Shrek will become one of the ordinary people of the Sun-Moon Empire, disbanding Shrek Academy and Shrek City, and declaring that everything Shrek belongs to Sun-Moon. This can be considered a relatively decent ending for Shrek. Would you consider it?"
Hearing this, Yan Shaozhe was so angry that he almost spat water in Xu Tianxi's face. His eyes were red, he was panting like a cow, and he raised his neck and roared:
"You want me to become a tool of your Sun Moon Empire and destroy the hopes of Shrek Academy and the Shrek people with my own hands? Dream on..."
"Even if you destroy our Shrek City and Shrek Academy, the spirit of the Shrek people will always remain in the hearts of the people of Douluo Continent. Sooner or later, someone will rise up and drag you all into hell!!!"
Yan Shaozhe shouted at the top of his lungs, expressing his vision for the future.
"It was the nobles who supported you, Shrek. When I kill them all, do you think anyone will still be there to mourn your passing? You're overthinking it."
Xu Tianxi shook his head, sighed softly, and his voice gradually lowered:
"Alas, now that things have come to this, do you think you still have the right to choose?"
Yan Shaozhe's face changed, "What do you mean?"
"Of course, I want to make you a useless person. I want to follow the path of kingly rule, and since you are unwilling to cooperate, I have no choice but to act tyrannically and eliminate the root of the problem. It's your choice."
Xu Tianxi smiled faintly, and suddenly released a spatial flame from his right hand, using the Black Tiger Heart-Ripping Style, striking Yan Shaozhe's lower dantian like lightning.
"Ah... no... you can't do this. You can't destroy my soul core. No..."
Yan Shaozhe screamed in pain, and the wrinkles on his raised old face wrinkled into a ball, making it look extremely hideous and terrifying.
At the same time, his face quickly aged, and a large amount of bright soul power was forcibly drawn out from his lower dantian, along with Yan Shaozhe's life force.
"I haven't learned any special methods to destroy a person's soul core, so I have no choice but to forcibly shatter your lower dantian. Be patient, there will be more later."
Xu Tianxi tried to comfort him kindly, then suddenly retracted his right hand, spread out two fingers into a scissors shape, and released two surging soul lights, hitting Yan Shaozhe's chest and upper part of his eyebrows respectively.
There, the soul master's middle dantian and upper dantian are located.
Xuan Zi was crippled but recovered his soul power and re-condensed his soul core in his middle dantian. With such a precedent, Xu Tianxi naturally learned from it and wanted to destroy all three of Yan Shaozhe's dantians.
"ah..."
Yan Shaozhe's screams became louder. Large bloody holes appeared between his eyebrows, chest, and dantian. He looked like a leaking barrel, and the bright soul power he had cultivated for a hundred years quickly dissipated.
For a soul master, once all his strength is lost, it is a fate worse than death!
After that, Xu Tianxi flipped his left hand and slapped out a strange and unpredictable palm, which landed on Yishuzhan's chest.
He has experience in using this palm to destroy all the meridians in the body.
"puff--"
Yan Shaozhe was knocked flying, his body like a dead tree, smashed into the pile of rocks, his breath so weak that he was about to disappear.
"Dig them out and lock them up. Choose a day to execute them together with Song Yunzhi. Our country will kill two Sea God Pavilion Masters at once. This will be announced to the world and deter all disloyal people on the continent!"
Withdrawing his hands, Xu Tianxi issued the most powerful and cruel order, to use the most domineering means to break the backbone of all Shrek people in Douluo Continent, which was also the last means of fishing.
The execution ground at that time will most likely be the final graveyard for many Shrek people.
Shrek has a thirst for revenge? Just kill them all.
As soon as these words were spoken, the rubble that buried Yan Shaozhe's body rolled. I wonder if Yan Shaozhe also thought of the purpose of Xu Tianxi's actions.
"Yes." Qiangu Canghai happily accepted the order. He knew that with Xu Tianxi's character of liking to kill people and destroy their hearts, they, father and son, would most likely serve as executioners.
"Let's clean up the battlefield." After dealing with Yan Shaozhe, Xu Tianxi didn't take any more action. He just glanced at the strong men of the Holy Spirit Church. There were two familiar faces here, Zhang Peng and Xuan Zi, but he didn't recognize the others.
He did not kill Xuanzi. This person's identity was more special, so it would be better to execute him in public one day.
Moreover, his cultivation is beneficial to angel soul masters and is very suitable for Ye Guyi. This is the only way to maximize the benefits.
The descendant of the angel returns and kills the evil soul master Xuanzi, who was once the quasi-master of the Sea God Pavilion of Shrek. The influence of this gimmick will not be small.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but cast his gaze towards the battlefield in other directions of Mingdu, and a solemn light suddenly rose in his eyes.
Kong Deming was personally in charge of the imperial palace, but at the beginning of the action, the former coalition forces of the three countries threw two ninth-level fixed-type soul-guided artillery shells and a large number of eighth-level and lower fixed-type soul-guided artillery shells, causing a huge commotion that shook the world.
It goes without saying that these fixed-type soul-guided shells were made by the Holy Spirit Church. He didn't know whether anyone was killed or not. The old emperor was so frightened that he was probably dead.
The full moon hung high in the sky, competing fiercely with the light and shadow of the High Priest of the Sea God. The Sea Soul Masters also seemed to be forming a formation to fight back, throwing out some fixed-type soul guide shells from time to time, making the defending forces there hesitant.
There are so many concerns when fighting on home soil.
"Should I go and take a look..." Xu Tianxi, who was secretly recovering his soul power, was thinking about the battle situation.
Suddenly, his spiritual sense gave rise to a warning sign, his pupils suddenly dilated, and he shouted to the surroundings:
"No matter what happens here, don't follow me! And don't worry about me!"
"What?" Gu Zhaoqiu asked in confusion.
The next moment, a silver beam of light fell from the sky, enveloped Xu Tianxi, and carried his body away.
"What's going on?!"
Gu Zhaoqiu's eyes turned red, and he swept the gun forward, but it was empty. The beam of light disappeared too quickly, only for a moment.
Soon, silver pillars of light fell from the direction of the palace. Their power was mysterious and beyond the imagination of many people.
