When the Rock Spear Pierces the Darkness!

Chapter 56 When the Rock Spear Pierces the Darkness!

The moment the match began, the two Soul Kings at the forefront of the Spirit Hall immediately activated their Spirit Fusion Technique.

The spirit ring named Xie Yue embraced Hu Liena from behind; the next moment, two golden beams shot out simultaneously from the scepter in the hand of the support-type spirit master of the Spirit Hall Academy team, the golden light shining brightly and quickly merging into Xie Yue and Hu Liena's bodies.

A red light curtain suddenly appeared and spread, enveloping Xie Yue and Hu Liena's bodies at the very moment they collided.

At the same time, the red light burst forth instantly, spreading out like a sphere of light, covering nearly half the area of ​​the venue.

A flash of red light, and the two figures merged into one, one with long flowing hair, whose gender was indistinguishable.

Their hair had turned red, and the figure composed of Xie Yue and Hu Liena began to dance quietly.

Two moon blades, magnified to twice their original size, shimmered with a rainbow-like brilliance at the tips of the outstretched arms. As the surging, intense red light suddenly intensified, the combined form vanished instantly into the thick red mist. The members of the Heavenly Dou Royal Third Team were also completely enveloped by this dense fog.

"Hmph, nothing special."

A golden light flashed in Dugu Yan's eyes; the next moment, as her spirit rings flickered, Dugu Yan waved her hand, and a large rain of golden droplets fell like molten gold, enveloping the members of the Spirit Hall team. At the same time, her lower body transformed into a golden snake, its golden scales shimmering in the sunlight, resembling both a snake and a dragon.

"Flowers fall, petals fly, filling the sky; their beauty fades, their fragrance dies—who will mourn them?"

Jiangzhu sighed softly, chanting as she gracefully danced. Pale petals drifted down from the sky, and the ominous red mist quickly dissipated, revealing once more the figures of Xie Yue and Hu Liena after their martial souls had merged.

"Clang!"

Eileen's sword energy soared to the sky, slashing straight down and colliding with the blade raised by the figure. The next moment, in a flash of red light, the figure was sent flying backward, letting out a muffled groan.

With a single, sweeping sword strike, Eileen defeated a member of the Spirit Hall, blasting the Soul Master off the stage. The members of the Heaven Dou Team 3 unleashed their full power, making the outcome of the match virtually certain.

Unlike the excitement of the other team members, Jiang Zhu, the Soul Master with the strongest mental perception, couldn't help but frown slightly. For some reason, she had a bad feeling, but couldn't quite put her finger on what the problem was.

"Heavenly Dou Royal Team Three, Victory!"

The referee from the Spirit Hall reluctantly delivered his verdict, and the crowd cheered. The Pope of the Spirit Hall rose with a sigh and congratulated the victorious Heaven Dou Royal Team, while the Spirit Hall members hung their heads in dejection, looking as if they had lost their parents.

Did we win?

A look of confusion flashed in Jiangzhu's eyes.

Wait a minute, where is Master Li?

Jiangzhu looked around; she couldn't see Zhongli anywhere, not even in the square in front of the Papal Palace or on the entire Holy Mountain of the Spirit Hall.

Suddenly, a violent tremor shook the sky. The sky was torn apart; the entire world instantly changed color, with eerie purplish-red mist appearing everywhere. Even the Papal Palace in front of them was shrouded in purplish-red light, giving a bizarre and surreal feeling. The expressions on the faces of everyone in sight became stiff and distorted.

A dark golden rock spear tore through the sky and pierced into this world. The entire world trembled at that moment, as if everything was about to collapse, and the sky above turned into a twisted purplish-red.

"snort!"

In the void, Jiangzhu seemed to hear a cold snort, and that terrifying will made her heart tremble slightly. She saw a faint purple aura attempting to climb up the rock spear, and it began to slowly spread along the spearhead.

"The heavens move and all things are in motion."

A majestic and steady voice rang out. The next moment, countless rocky stars streaked across the sky and rained down!

The east wind at night releases a thousand trees of blossoms. And blows down stars like rain.

"boom!"

The rock spear trembled violently, its surface radiating a brilliant yellow light, and countless square knot patterns appeared in the purplish-red sky. The next moment, the purple aura on the rock spear instantly dissipated, as if evil spirits had been driven away by divine power.

"Snap!"

With a cracking sound, the entire world shattered completely before Jiangzhu's very eyes.

Jiangzhu suddenly opened her eyes. At that moment, she saw a blade raised, about to touch her neck.

"Bang!"

Jiangzhu struck out with her palm, sending the red figure flying far away. She then noticed that her teammates seemed to be waking up from a dream.

The red figure opposite paused for a moment, as if receiving some information. The next moment, the red light flashed, and the figure split into Hu Liena and Xie Yue again.

"We lost."

Although there was a hint of helplessness and resentment in his eyes, Xie Yue, as the captain, still spoke decisively, and then the members of the Spirit Hall jumped off the competition stage without hesitation.

"We won?" A look of surprise and bewilderment flashed across Jiangzhu and the others' eyes. But then, they turned around, glanced at Master Li in the distance, and a sense of understanding dawned on them.

We did indeed win. Because the rock spear pierced the darkness.

Zhong Li turned around and slowly walked away. He had done what he needed to do. However, if nothing unexpected happened, he now needed to prepare for something else.

"Representative of the Heavenly Dou Royal Team Three, please step forward to receive your championship reward."

On the high platform, the Cardinal of the Spirit Hall, who was acting as the referee, shouted loudly.

As the captain, Jiang Zhu naturally represented the entire Heaven Dou Royal Team Three and walked before Pope Bibi Dong of the Spirit Hall. Watching this scene from afar, Tang San clenched his fists again, his eyes filled with resentment and hatred.

This spot, this spot, should have been mine!

In his eyes, the Spirit Hall team's defeat was utterly inexplicable. First, a large expanse of red mist was released, and then a purplish-red hue appeared within the red mist. The members of the Heaven Dou Royal Team Three were completely stunned, standing motionless in place.

Then, when the Spirit Hall team arrived, the Heaven Dou Royal Team 3 members suddenly awoke as if from a dream, and the mist dissipated. Immediately afterward, the Spirit Hall team decisively surrendered, ending the match.

What's going on here? Clearly, the Spirit Hall team is relying on some kind of mental technique, but once that technique fails, they're utterly vulnerable. I could do that too! When it comes to breaking through mental-based spirit skills, what could be better than my Purple Demon Eye?

How despicable! You despicable people have stolen my glory, Tang San! And what's more, there was a reward too.

Looking at the few glittering soul bones on the tray in the Pope's hand, Tang San's eyes almost bled.

As the master's disciple, he could naturally tell that the quality of these soul bones was far superior to the worthless pieces he had previously fused with. In other words, these were all ten-thousand-year-old soul bones! There was even a precious head soul bone among them, which would certainly be very suitable for him. What a pity, what a lament, what a regret!

If I were to fuse with a ten-thousand-year-old head soul bone right now, and if it belonged to me, my Purple Demon Eye would definitely be able to reach a higher level ahead of time!
