What was that…
Gu Yuena made a lifting motion. The nine-colored light orb soared straight into the core of the black vortex in the sky instantly. At once, the black vortex began to turn into nine colors. A gush of mighty, terrifying spiritual aura burst forth from it, spreading outward instantly.
Tang Wulin could not detect the extent of its coverage despite his divine consciousness. It was highly possible that it covered the entire Douluo Continent!
Gu Yuena’s eyes turned nine-colored at this very moment. She said indifferently, “Summon, mission!”
In the next moment, a buzz was heard echoing through the sky and ground. A peculiar spiritual fluctuation burst forth.
Tang Wulin felt his spirit caught in a momentary trance, but he recovered soon after. He turned his head hastily to the side to look at his comrades behind him. It seemed that his comrades were only affected slightly. He felt more at ease knowing that.
Yet, he felt burdened by a heavy load. He understood Gu Yuena well enough to know that she would never do anything reckless. Surely, she had her objective when she unleashed the divine consciousness which was countless times higher than Tang Wulin’s.
All of a sudden, a silhouette flew past Tang Wulin and dived toward Gu Yuena.
Tang Wulin was stunned for a moment upon seeing the silhouette. Not much later, he turned pale with fear.
The silhouette belonged to the Qilin Douluo Tong Yu precisely.
In a light’s flicker, the Limit Douluo Tong Yu flew in and arrived at the back of Gu Yuena. He stood behind her. Upon closer inspection, one would notice that he was staring blankly as if he had lost his mind.
Tong Yu was not the only person affected. Soon after, two more silhouettes shot out and made their way behind Tong Yu. They were the husband and wife team, Lan Muzi and Tang Yingmeng.
What was happening…
The father and son team, the Titan Douluo Yuanen Zhentian and Yuanen Tiandang, followed suit. The two great Limit Douluos flew out to stand behind Gu Yuena. They, too, had blank stares in their eyes. Apparently, they had lost control of their divine consciousness.
Tang Wulin said in a surprise yet furious manner, “Gu Yue, what, what have you done to them?”
Other silhouettes began to fly over from the distance. More silhouettes were flying out from the Spirit Pagoda as well. They all gathered behind Gu Yuena and the numerous beast gods. Everyone seemed to have lost their divine consciousness. They appeared to be docile, obedient, and respectful.
Quite a number of people flew out from Shrek City as well. Furthermore, Tang Wulin was acquainted with most of them. They were powerhouses from Shrek Academy, the Tang Sect, the Titan clan, and also a few other subsidiary clans.
Other than the Shrek Six Monsters, the Gale Saber Demon Sima Jinchi, the Body Douluo A Ruheng, the Sea God Douluo Chen Xinjie, and the Light Dark Douluo Long Yeyue, the rest of the people had all gathered behind Gu Yuena.
“We have been preparing for this day for a very, very long time. Do you think that the Spirit Pagoda is capable of developing a man-made ten thousand year spirit soul with its research ability? They couldn’t have done it without me. Besides, my goal of joining the Spirit Pagoda is to be in control, but to use it to control even more soul masters. After all, almost all the soul masters in mankind’s world need to acquire their spirit souls through the Spirit Pagoda. Hence, anyone who has acquired a ten thousand year black spirit soul from the Spirit Pagoda will be under the control of my Dragon God core’s divine consciousness.”
“Naturally, it’s far from enough. After all, the powerhouses who were Title Douluo-ranked many years ago don’t need to fuse with the spirit souls anymore. I created the Ten Thousand Beast Platform so that those whose spirit souls were elevated in the Ten Thousand Beast Platform would be under my control. You’re the exception since you already possess the divine consciousness, but I can’t control that.”
Gu Yuena explained it in an extremely calm manner as if she was just talking about a trifle matter.
Tang Wulin turned pale. “So, you’re saying that…” He turned around immediately to have a look.
Just as expected, the Gale Saber Demon Sima Jinchi, the Body Douluo A Ruheng, and the Shrek Six Monsters who were fine earlier had now assumed blank stares. They flew away from Tang Wulin to join Gu Yuena’s team.
They had accompanied Tang Wulin to take part in the Joust For A Spouse Festival in the past, and they had all entered the Ten Thousand Beast Platform too!
Gu Yuena said in an indifferent tone, “There are more than half of the soul masters of seven-ringed rank and above who are now under my control. In addition, I’ve our soul beast legion. Do you still think that you’ve the capability to resist us now? Moreover, the commanders of mankind’s army are all powerful soul masters including the Divine Brush Douluo and the Bright Mirror Douluo. They had all entered the Ten Thousand Beast Platform in the past. They’ve received the summon too, so they’ll be joining us real soon and be under my control as well. There are only the four Excellencies behind you who did not enter the Ten Thousand Beast Platform nor acquire any ten-thousand year spirit souls before.”
Yes, there were only four remaining elders standing behind Tang Wulin at the moment. They were the Amorous Douluo Zang Xin, the Heartless Douluo Cao Dezhi, the Light Dark Douluo Long Yeyue, and the Sea God Douluo Chen Xinjie.
They had all achieved Limit Douluo ranks in the earlier years, so there was no need for them to acquire any spirit souls. As for the Ten Thousand Beast Platform, they did not bother with it at all.
In the meantime, Tang Wulin felt chills all over his body. If everything was happening according to what Gu Yuena had just said, the crisis would be way more severe than the threat caused by the abyssal plane earlier.
The number of mankind’s soul masters had grown tremendously over the years. There were quite a number of powerhouses in the world now. Any Limit Douluo-ranked powerhouse would have the ability to destroy a city!
A large number of these people standing behind Gu Yuena were his companions and friends. She had such a powerful lineup while, on the other hand, he was all alone and helpless.
Just as Gu Yuena said, their preparation was sufficient enough for everything to work according to their plan. They could already exercise absolute control over everything when it was revealed to the people at present.
Only a person such as the lord of the plane or with a life core rank could possibly stop them. Yet, those people were in a deep sleep. Tang Wulin would not be getting any help from his father.
Who would have thought that on a joyous occasion such as a marriage proposal a stunning turn of events would occur?
Although there were still thousands of clear-minded individuals on the Douluo Continent, of what use could they be? Would they be able to stop the enchanted soul masters?
Moreover, mankind’s armed forces were exhausted. The warships from the three great fleets were all annihilated. The assortment of weapons and equipment were all damaged and lost during the war against the abyssal plane.
Tang Wulin had no choice but to acknowledge that Gu Yuena chose the best time to execute her plan. It was precisely when mankind’s world was at its weakest.
Behind her, the number of powerhouses of Limit Douluo rank and above amounted to more than ten! There were also Da Ming and Er Ming whose rank surpassed the ordinary Limit Douluo.
“Surrender now, Wulin. You don’t stand a chance against us. The order of this world must be restored,” said Da Ming in a deep voice.
Tang Wulin chuckled bitterly. “Order must be restored? Is it going to be restored according to your soul beast’s mentality? Are you going to start over everything in reverse? If I’m not mistaken, the first thing that you’ll do upon seizing control of the entire Douluo Continent plane is to destroy all the soul devices and scientific development, so that the entire plane will be in regress. This way, it will be easier for your soul beasts to dominate the world. However, the population of mankind is already so huge now. Can you dominate the world without resorting to any killing? In fact, I think you may even kill the outstanding scientists and powerful humans to weaken the human population. Certainly, you’ll not maintain the equality between the soul beasts and the weakened humans since you need to take the leading role. Hence, it’s easy to tell what mankind’s future will be like. Mankind will head toward extinction just like your soul beasts in the past.”
The Beast God Di Tian said in a stern voice, “You’ve only yourself to blame for this. It’s supposed to be like this. Back in those days, I watched as the Great Star Dou Forest was being gradually destroyed and ruined by mankind. How do you think we feel when so many of our subjects were hunted and captured for your experiments? Now, everything will be reversed. Mankind brought this onto themselves. You must swallow the bitter pill that has been created by yourselves!”
Tang Wulin’s gaze turned icy cold. He did not bother to pay any attention to Di Tian as he looked toward Gu Yuena with a burning gaze.
“Is this what you wanted? To exterminate mankind?”
Gu Yuena looked at him coldly. “Pray tell me, what would you have done in my place?”
