The three great level-98 experts rose into the sky. Even Long Xiaoyao was momentarily stunned by the sight. He looked toward Su Tianxuan.
"You are that Dark Night Douluo? The Dark Night Duke who became famous in a single battle at Jing Yang Mountain Range?"
Su Tianxuan smiled. "I didn't expect even Dragon Emperor Douluo to have heard of my deeds."
Long Xiaoyao's face was expressionless. "Does your Heavenly Soul Empire intend to start a war with the Sun Moon Empire?"
Long Xiaoyao noticed that behind the three great experts, more than 20 powerful figures had also risen into the air. All of them were Titled Douluo, and over half of them were Super Douluo.
Even the Sun Moon Empire's Class 9 soul engineers were astonished by this scene. When it came to Spirit Master strength, they could not compare with any one of the three Douluo nations.
If a Class 9 soul engineer encountered a Titled Douluo in a direct battle, the Class 9 soul engineer would basically have a 90% chance of dying.
Although Class 9 soul tools were powerful, they also had many restrictions, such as charging limits, terrain limits, environmental limits, and so on. Because of this, the Sun Moon Empire rarely allowed Class 9 soul engineers to face Titled Douluo directly.
After all, Class 9 soul engineers were extremely precious in the Sun Moon Empire. Losing even one was a loss to the empire.
"Xuan Zi, Tianxuan, there's no need to be polite with this old black dragon. This old fellow is senior to all of us. Let's attack together."
Du Busi burst into laughter, then flashed forward and punched toward Long Xiaoyao's face.
"Haha, come!"
Elder Xuan laughed loudly and also charged toward Long Xiaoyao. His, Su Tianxuan's, and Du Busi's mission was to hold Long Xiaoyao back. The assassination mission could be left to Elder Mu.
Naturally, Long Xiaoyao saw Du Busi's attack and raised his hand to block.
Boom!
Long Xiaoyao was actually forced back by Du Busi. Even Long Xiaoyao was somewhat surprised. "Your strength?"
Du Busi chuckled. "Didn't expect that, old black dragon! This old man has made another breakthrough in strength. Although I'm still level 98, I can now be called the strongest beneath Limit Douluo!
"Come, old black dragon. Become the opportunity for this old man to break through to Limit Douluo!"
Du Busi instantly activated his Martial Soul, turning into an enormous emerald-green giant.
Two yellow, two purple, two black, and three red Spirit Rings appeared around him. These were Du Busi's Spirit Rings: three 100,000-year Spirit Rings!
Long Xiaoyao's gaze sharpened. He stepped forward, and his Dark Holy Dragon Martial Soul emerged.
Two yellow, two purple, three black, and two red. This was Long Xiaoyao's Spirit Ring configuration. He actually had two 100,000-year Spirit Rings, though it looked slightly inferior to Du Busi's.
"Tianxuan, let's join in too!"
Elder Xuan's body became incomparably huge. At the same time, a layer of earth-yellow armor covered him. The armor was extremely thick and wrapped around Elder Xuan completely.
Elder Xuan's aura actually rose to Du Busi's level, already touching the threshold of Limit Douluo.
Su Tianxuan also moved. His entire bearing became incomparably noble. A gorgeous set of violet-black armor covered his body, and a pair of exceptionally beautiful violet-black moth wings appeared behind him. At this moment, Su Tianxuan looked much younger, around the same age as Su Jinming.
Elder Xuan and Su Tianxuan both had the same Spirit Ring configuration: two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red.
Boom, boom, boom!
Long Xiaoyao clashed with the three great experts and was actually forced back. Even Long Xiaoyao could not believe that this was the power three level-98 experts could unleash!
The next moment, Long Xiaoyao laughed.
"Hahahahaha! Good, good, good! It has been a long time since this old man met opponents who could excite me! Come!"
Long Xiaoyao felt a rush of fighting spirit he had not felt in years. Anyone who could cultivate to Limit Douluo through their own ability was no ordinary person.
Long Xiaoyao's seventh Spirit Ring shone. The next instant, he transformed into a massive Dark Holy Dragon. This was his Martial Soul True Body.
The transformation was not over. The Dark Holy Dragon once again turned into human form. Although Long Xiaoyao's appearance did not change, his aura became incomparably powerful.
This was a special Martial Soul True Body created by Long Xiaoyao himself. He did not need to take the original form of his Martial Soul. Instead, he compressed the Dark Holy Dragon into his body, gaining the ultimate amplification of Martial Soul True Body while remaining in human form!
Long-lost fighting spirit surged through Long Xiaoyao. He had been silent for far too long. The only opponent he truly acknowledged was Mu En. Of course, he also admitted that if Mu En had not suffered backlash because of certain events, he would definitely not have been Mu En's match.
Their life-and-death battles back then had already made everything clear. When Long Xiaoyao fought Mu En, he lost more than he won.
Now, he had encountered another worthy opponent. Du Busi was only one step away from Limit Douluo. It was very possible that through this battle, he would touch the insight of the ultimate realm and break through to Limit Douluo.
As for Xuan Zi and Su Tianxuan, these two were people he originally had not placed in his eyes. Yet now, each of them wore a special suit of armor, greatly raising their auras. Xuan Zi's aura even faintly surpassed Du Busi's.
Long Xiaoyao guessed that this was likely a special kind of soul tool, one that forcibly raised their combat power.
Facing three opponents who had all touched the threshold of the ultimate realm, Long Xiaoyao was extremely excited. How many years had it been since he could fight to his heart's content?
Ever since he reached Limit Douluo, he had deeply felt how vast the Limit Douluo level truly was. Why were so many people stuck at level 99, unable to reach level 100?
Because even within the Limit Douluo level, the gap was enormous. Long Xiaoyao knew that above Limit Douluo, there was another level known as demigod. Reaching the demigod realm meant having half a foot touching the level of gods.
As far as Long Xiaoyao knew, on the entire Douluo Continent, the only ones who had likely reached the demigod realm were Beast God Di Tian of the Star Dou Great Forest and the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler of the Evil Demon Forest.
Long Xiaoyao asked himself honestly. In a one-on-one battle, he had no chance of winning against either of them. That was why he realized that Limit Douluo was not the end. He simply lacked enough pressure to take another step forward.
Back when Mu En was still healthy, the two of them sparred with each other and improved together. They had once had a chance to glimpse a higher path. Unfortunately, Mu En had been severely injured and no longer had the strength to continue growing.
Now, Long Xiaoyao wanted the three people before him to become his whetstones!
Boom, boom, boom!
The battle between the four powerhouses high in the sky shocked every expert in Radiant City.
The Shrek people began to move. While the Sun Moon Empire's attention was focused on this surprise attack, Huo Yuhao planned to take the Shrek group to empty out the Sun Moon Empire's treasury.
"Huo Yuhao, continue competing here. Xiaotao will watch over you. I'll follow the Spiritual Power you split off and take a look at the Sun Moon Empire's treasury."
Su Yunlin transmitted his voice to Huo Yuhao. After all, the Sun Moon Empire's treasury had plenty of good things. Things like stationary soul cannon shells were naturally better in large numbers.
Huo Yuhao nodded. Then he used his newly developed ability to split his Spiritual Power in half.
Su Yunlin turned to look at Ma Xiaotao, who was dressed in a black robe.
"Yuhao is in your hands. Control your temper. Stay with Yuhao and help him bring back the Sun Moon Divine Needle.
"If you can bring it back, I'll record a great merit for you! Remember, don't get entangled with the Holy Spirit Cult or the Sun Moon Empire. You are our secret weapon. If you don't need to act, then don't act."
Ma Xiaotao nodded. "Yes!"
After giving his instructions, Su Yunlin left. Ma Xiaotao was a genius who possessed Ultimate Fire. Ultimate Fire countered most soul tools, so she would be the killing move against the Sun Moon Empire's soul engineer legions.
