He spoke with a hint of smugness, as if Yang Wudi revered Lu Yuan and him.
It was as if Lu Yuan was himself, making Yang Wudi's forehead veins throb and giving him an urge to shoot that old bastard Niu Gao right now.
If he hadn't been injured at this moment, he would have definitely made Niu Gao know why the flowers were so red.
…………
Star Luo City is naturally the imperial city of the Star Luo Empire, and one of the three most magnificent and spectacular cities on the Douluo Continent.
Meanwhile, inside the Star Luo Imperial Palace, two figures were kneeling on the ground.
“Three days from now, the divine aura that appears once every hundred years in the Echoing Plains will appear again. Davis and Dai Mubai, you are now the only two candidates to become the next monarch of the Star Luo Empire.”
"Today I will tell you all that whoever obtains the divine breath will inherit the position of the Star Luo Emperor."
"Divine energy usually only appears once every five hundred years, but with the last strange phenomenon in the Star Dou Great Forest, the Echoing Plains have also undergone some changes."
"This is why the divine breath appeared ahead of schedule. According to records, the divine breath can not only enhance soul power, but also improve the grade of the martial soul."
"My Dai family's martial spirit is a top-tier beast martial spirit. If it can evolve, it can naturally reach the pinnacle of the continent."
"Davis, Dai Mubai, I'm getting old, you should encourage me!"
The Star Luo Emperor's aged eyes were now firmly fixed on his only two remaining sons, his voice majestic yet full of allure.
Upon hearing his words, Dai Mubai and Davis both revealed excited and fervent eyes.
In the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament, Davis lost to Dai Mubai, which earned him the support of a group of people in the Star Luo Empire.
Although the lack of Zhu Zhuqing to fuse with his martial soul caused him to suffer frequent defeats in the battles of the next two years, he has persevered to this day.
Today, he finally felt an opportunity once again. As long as he could gain the approval of the divine spirit and his martial soul could evolve, so what if he didn't have a martial soul fusion skill?
He could very well be the only exception in the Star Luo Empire.
Thinking of this, his gaze became intense.
Even if he defeats Davis in the future, he might still be able to possess the Martial Soul Fusion Skill again.
I could easily steal my beautiful sister-in-law away.
After all, it was the Netherworld Cat. Since it could create a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with Davis, Dai Mubai didn't believe that it couldn't create one with him.
Davis was equally excited; he was already imagining the scene of his martial soul evolving and killing his beloved younger brother.
At that time, he would be the crown prince of the Star Luo Empire, the man closest to the throne.
Thinking of this, his breathing became heavy, and his eyes turned fierce.
Both of them understood deeply that after today's battle on Echoing Plains, the real decisive battle would begin, a bloody battlefield where the victor would be chosen.
The ultimate victor will gain the pinnacle of power and authority in the future Star Luo Empire for at least fifty years.
Emperor Xingluo, seated on his throne, looked down at his two sons with no pity in his eyes, only anticipation for the bloody battle that was about to begin!
Only in this way can the most suitable successor be chosen for the Star Luo Empire.
Even if Dai Mubai and Davis were his sons, he would not show them the slightest pity.
Because he personally killed his own brother back then.
Chapter 196 In the heart of the plains, a bottomless rift valley!
After leaving the Po Clan, Lu Yuan only spent half a day traveling from the Po Clan, which was located in the far east of the Star Luo Empire, to the Echoing Plains, which was near the south.
At this moment, Lu Yuan stood in the void, looking down at the soldiers who were constantly guarding the surroundings. His gaze was involuntarily drawn to this plain.
After compressing his mental energy and spreading it in a straight line, some illusions on the Echoing Plains finally appeared before him.
Barren, vast barren lands, where spirit beasts dwell.
Between heaven and earth, dense lightning elements continued to accumulate, and thick bolts of lightning continuously crashed down from the dark clouds in the sky.
Some unlucky soul beasts were instantly reduced to ashes by the falling lightning.
Continuously exploring with his mental power, Lu Yuan's gaze finally settled on the deepest part of the Echoing Plains.
There, he seemed to sense something.
That feeling that made him eager to try it out, that made him long to see it.
It is the power of the gods, and it seems there is more than one kind!
It possesses the power of Thor, as well as the power left behind by two other deities. It seems that something sealed off the three different types of divine power, ultimately resulting in its current state.
Lu Yuan's gaze remained unchanged, and in a flash, he disappeared from the spot.
His speed was terrifying. With a sonic boom created by his physical impact, he rushed an unknown distance.
The soldiers guarding the Echoing Plains below were completely unaware of Lu Yuan's presence.
Among these guarding soldiers, there were naturally Soul Masters, but the difficulty of finding Lu Yuan, who was three thousand meters above the ground, was unimaginable.
Even a titled Douluo might not have this ability, let alone the Soul Masters below who are only Soul Saints.
The lightning bolt was swift and fleeting; although the Echoing Plains were vast, it ultimately did not take Lu Yuan much time.
As the whistling wind faded away, Lu Yuan's figure had arrived at his destination.
In the center of the Echoing Plains, above a deep rift valley, Lu Yuan looked down at the bottomless rift, his spiritual power spreading wildly downwards like a raging tide.
Along with the downward spread of spiritual energy, Lu Yuan's figure stood tall in the sky.
As he continued to fall, some special soul masters loyal to the Star Luo royal family finally spotted him.
Suddenly, a fierce tiger's roar rang out, its sound reverberating for dozens of miles, and the earth began to tremble under its roar.
A white tiger, formed from condensed soul power, rose directly from the ground, about seventeen or eighteen meters long, with sharp Geng metal energy constantly swirling around it.
Not only this white tiger, but also various martial spirit true forms, were rising up from the ground.
"As expected of this special place that the Dai family has always wanted to control, it is indeed heavily guarded. There are even so many experts like the Soul Saint."
Even Lu Yuan, looking at the eight Martial Soul True Bodies below, revealed a hint of solemnity in his eyes.
He was naturally not troubled by the few Soul Saints or even Soul Douluos; he was simply somewhat shocked by the Dai family's attitude.
The fact that the Dai family can mobilize such power to protect this place suggests that they definitely know some of its secrets.
The Dai family not only knew that they might also gain some power from it.
"Enemy attack!"
As Lu Yuan drew closer to the ground in his contemplation, the true forms of his martial spirits began to hold back.
Led by the White Tiger Dai family member whose strength had reached the level of a Soul Douluo, they quickly launched an attack on Lu Yuan.
A terrifying surge of soul power immediately began to ripple around the rift valley.
One after another, soul skills, amplified several times in power by the Martial Soul True Body, hurtled towards Lu Yuan like deadly blades.
Upon seeing this scene, Lu Yuan in the air narrowed his eyes slightly, and the golden wings on his back immediately unfolded.
With a slight sway, his figure vanished amidst a series of crackling sounds, appearing like a ghost in the center of the eight Martial Soul True Bodies.
"So fast!"
"Just how fast is that?!"
"Who exactly are you? Why did you intrude into the secret territory of my Star Luo Empire alone? What is your purpose?"
At this moment, the Soul Douluo from the Dai family reacted the fastest. He raised his sharp and huge tiger paw and, with an angry roar, smashed it directly at Lu Yuan.
Despite his furious roar, Lu Yuan remained calm and composed, merely raising his head slightly to look at the tiger's paw that was steadily approaching him.
He didn't even use his spirit rings; he simply raised his hand slightly.
Instantly, a large amount of lightning condensed in his hand.
The lightning exploded, and the white tiger's true form, which was seventeen or eighteen meters tall, was sent flying backward and crashed heavily to the ground.
Under Lu Yuan's attack, the white tiger's true form became somewhat illusory, threatening to dissipate.
"Thor's Domain!"
Lu Yuan's eyes were deep and focused. He took a step forward, and in an instant, a domain unfolded beneath his feet.
Lightning bolts rained down from the sky, and massive amounts of electricity flowed across the ground, endlessly enveloping the entire surrounding area.
One by one, the Soul Masters who had released their Martial Soul True Forms were like targets standing still, unable to resist. They were bound by the electric current beneath their feet and, under horrified gazes, were struck on the head by the constantly forming heavenly lightning from the sky.
Boom, boom, boom! ! !
As endless lightning continued to fall, those who had fought back were either pulverized into black charcoal or left lying on the ground, barely alive, completely incapacitated.
After retracting his Thor's Domain, Lu Yuan headed towards the bottomless chasm, intending to explore its depths.
"Who exactly are you..."
The Soul Douluo of the Dai family was still alive, but his condition was not very good.
Its entire body was charred black, and it even emitted a smell of roasted meat.
"who am I?"
"Heh, it doesn't seem to matter to you whether you call me Thor..."
Lu Yuan finally spoke, chuckling softly as a ball of lightning coalesced in his hand.
With a series of piercing bird cries, several thunderbirds slipped from his hands and flew towards the few remaining Soul Masters.
Third Soul Skill: Lightning Thousand Birds!
Everything fell silent. As the Thousand Lightning Birds descended, only Lu Yuan remained among all the Soul Masters present.
With all the Soul Masters who tried to stop him from entering the Rift Valley now dead, Lu Yuan was finally able to explore it properly.
He was very curious about what exactly existed deep within this rift valley.
…………
I plan to awaken Gaia as my second martial soul. Does anyone have any objections?
Chapter 197 Divine Ruins, Sensing the Spirit of Battle
Stepping directly into the rift, Lu Yuan's figure immediately plummeted downwards.
He wanted to see just how deep this rift valley was, since he couldn't see the bottom at all.
As he listened to the howling wind, Lu Yuan's expression gradually became serious.
One thousand meters below, two thousand meters, three thousand meters...
We haven't even reached the underground yet...
Feeling roughly how far he was from the ground, Lu Yuan silently calculated the distance in his mind.
Flying thousands of meters into the sky and descending thousands of meters underground are completely different things.
As he moved further and further away from the ground, Lu Yuan felt waves of pressure, a feeling that made his whole body tense up, and he showed a cautious expression.
As they descended nearly four thousand meters underground, Lu Yuan's eyes were suddenly filled with light.
Indeed, light suddenly appeared in the pitch-black rift, and as Lu Yuan's golden wings flapped behind him, he instantly appeared in a special hall.
Indeed, at the very bottom of this rift valley was a well-equipped grand hall.
Inside the main hall, a special kind of crystal rests atop a stone pillar.
Lu Yuan recognized at a glance that this crystal was taken from a special soul beast.
This crystal has no offensive or defensive capabilities, and it has no other attributes or functions. Its only function is to continuously absorb soul power from the air and then emit light.
Lu Yuan quickly looked away from the glowing crystal, his eyes suddenly drawn to a stone tablet in the main hall.
At the very center of the main hall, a stone tablet stands there.
The stone tablet was seven or eight zhang tall, and it was as black as ink, looking like obsidian.
But that wasn't what attracted Lu Yuan. What truly captivated him was the unique truth revealed on the stone tablet.
At first glance, one can only feel the boundless fighting spirit emanating from it.
The fighting spirit surges forth, as if pulling one directly into an illusion, transforming them into an invincible war god, constantly fighting and battling, challenging all the strongest beings in the world to become stronger, and ultimately defeating everyone step by step to become a war god!
