Douluo Jueshi: Obtain Sharingan at the beginning!

The two of them had a look of disbelief in their eyes, as if they had a thousand words to say, but they could no longer make any sound.

A man in black snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "It is true that people are fickle, and everyone flees when disaster strikes. How many times has this happened? It has never failed.

This place is really strange. It must be aroused by the lives and blood of men and women who betrayed their love." He paused and added: "An ancient power is sleeping at the bottom of this lake, and it needs this extreme negative emotion to awaken it.

Only by witnessing the broken love can the door to the altar be opened." Another man in black nodded silently in agreement.

He looked down at the lake and whispered: "I hope this sacrifice is strong enough to meet the needs of the sleeper."

After speaking, he took out a black talisman from his arms and threw it into the lake. The moment the talisman came into contact with the blood, it emitted a dazzling light, and the lake began to roll violently, as if something was about to break out of the water. The man in black nodded with satisfaction and said, "The ceremony has begun."

They were quietly suspended in the air, waiting for the movement at the bottom of the lake.

The lake water rolled more and more violently, forming a huge vortex, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression.

Suddenly, a blood-red light shot up from the center of the vortex, illuminating the entire night sky. Seeing this, the man in black showed a fanatical look on his face.

"Success!" They cheered in unison, as if they saw the dawn of victory.

Another man in black frowned and whispered impatiently, "Stop talking nonsense! Drain their blood quickly so that we can go back and report."

He paused, with a hint of imperceptible tension in his tone, "Once this place is activated, it will erupt in an hour.

At that time, the gods will not be able to escape, and all humans in it will..." The man in black stopped talking suddenly, as if he realized that he almost leaked a secret that he shouldn't say.

The first man in black seemed to have suddenly thought of some taboo, his face changed slightly, and he immediately fell silent, concentrating on the action of his hands.

The dagger in his hand flashed with a cold light, and stabbed the couple's body again, blood gushing out, dyeing the lake red.

The couple's breathing became weaker and weaker, their eyes gradually became blurred, and the fire of life swayed like a candle in the wind. Their bodies trembled slightly, and finally stopped struggling.

The bright red blood dripped along the sharp edge of the dagger, creating circles of ripples on the lake.

The couple's faces gradually turned pale, their lips lost their blood color, and their eyes lost their luster.

Their vitality quickly passed away, and their bodies gradually became cold and stiff.

The blood spread in the lake, dyeing the clear lake water blood red.

The couple's blood finally ran out, and their lives came to an end.

The two bodies fell into the lake one after another, making two muffled "plop, plop" sounds. The lake rippled and soon returned to calm.

Seeing that the mission was completed, the two men in black did not dare to stop for a moment, turned around quickly, and flew into the air.

Their figures were agile, like two black bats in the night sky, and quickly disappeared into the night.

In a flash, their figures disappeared without a trace, as if they had never appeared.

A few minutes later, the lake began to surge, and the lake water that was previously stained red by blood gradually faded, replaced by a strange color.

The golden and silver lights complemented each other, flickering and jumping on the lake, like the twinkling stars in the night sky.

The golden light was like a jumping flame, emitting a blazing light, while the silver light was like flowing mercury, emitting a soft light.

The gold and silver colors intertwined and merged with each other, forming a strange scene that was breathtaking.

The golden light continued to expand, like a golden wave sweeping across the entire lake.

The silver light followed closely behind, like a silver ribbon wrapped around the golden wave.

The gold and silver colors spread to the surroundings at an astonishing speed, covering the entire lake in a strange light.

The lake water rolled and the waves surged, as if something was about to break out of the water.

The gold and silver light on the lake surface became more and more dazzling, reflecting the surrounding scenery in a golden and magnificent way.

The energy fluctuations in the lake water became more and more intense, as if some powerful force was brewing.

"What's the situation?" Xu Tianran, the regent and crown prince of the Sun and Moon Empire, asked gloomily in mourning clothes.

He frowned, his eyes were sharp, and he exuded a majestic aura.

The Imperial Defense Minister, who knelt on one knee in front of him, said in a deep voice: "The situation has stabilized. But the losses are heavy. Especially the losses in soul guides.

Nine out of ten soul guides we have stored for many years are gone..."

Xu Tianran waved his hand and interrupted the Defense Minister, saying: "I don't want to hear the loss data. I want to ask you, how is the public mood now?"

The Defense Minister said: "The public mood is relatively stable. After all, this is a domestic loss and has little to do with them."

Xu Tianran nodded and said: "Pass my order to spread the information about the theft of soul guides throughout the continent to mobilize the public's emotions. Strictly seal the news of His Majesty's death.

At the same time, you write an article yourself to blame the Xingluo Empire and the Tianhun Empire for the theft."

"Yes." The Defense Minister agreed respectfully, and he was very impressed that His Royal Highness the Regent could stabilize his emotions and respond quickly at the first time.

When so many things happened at once, he was still able to handle them in such an orderly manner. He was indeed a wise king!

The Minister of Defense bowed and saluted, and asked in a deep voice: "Your Highness, what about Shrek Academy? This matter is also likely to be related to them.

When we announce it to the public..." He paused slightly, waiting for Xu Tianran's instructions, with a trace of inquiry and expectation in his eyes.

Xu Tianran shook his head slowly, casting his deep gaze towards the bright sunshine outside the window, but it seemed as if he had penetrated through the fog and saw something further away.

He pondered for a moment, and his tone was low and firm: "Don't mention them." He paused and tapped his fingers lightly on the table, making a rhythmic sound, as if he was thinking about some important strategic plan.

"Shrek is just an academy after all." He spoke again, with a hint of contempt in his tone, but there was also a certain fear hidden in it. "But at the same time, they are also the spiritual leaders among many soul masters."

He narrowed his eyes slightly, a glimmer of light flashing in his eyes.

"If we add them," he paused, as if weighing the pros and cons, "it will have an impact on our strategy." His tone became decisive, with unquestionable majesty.

"As for dealing with them," he said with a confident smile, "I have my own way."

He waved his hand gently, indicating that the Minister of Defense could leave.

"Yes." The Minister of Defense responded respectfully, bowed again, then turned and left, his steps steady and powerful. The heavy palace door slowly closed behind him, cutting off the sounds inside and outside.

Silence returned to the hall, with only Xu Tianran sitting there quietly, as if he were a majestic mountain peak, motionless.

The sun shone on him through the window, coating him with a golden glow.

After a moment, the sound of slight footsteps broke the silence in the hall.

A figure in black clothes appeared silently at the entrance of the palace. It was the mysterious national master.

He walked in without being informed, his steps were light and steady, as if a breeze was blowing by.

There was a trace of unconcealable joy on his face, and he walked with a breeze, as if he had brought some good news.

Xu Tianran raised his head and his eyes fell on the mysterious national master, with a look of concern on his face.

"National Master," he asked with a hint of urgency in his tone, "How is the situation?"

The mysterious national master walked up to Xu Tianran, bowed and saluted, and then said with a slightly excited tone: "The situation is not good." He paused, as if he was organizing his words.

"The Heavenly Soul Empire, the Star Luo Empire, including the people from the Noumenon Sect, all fled." There was a hint of surprise in his tone, as if he did not expect that the other party would evacuate so quickly.

"They actually prepared a large number of earth-burrowing soul tools."

He continued, his tone full of disbelief.

"Sent all their main personnel out."

He paused and added, "According to the boreholes we found, at least hundreds of people were taken out."

He shook his head and sighed, "Even if there are still remnants scattered among the people, it will be difficult to find them."

Upon hearing the news, Xu Tianran's facial expression instantly became distorted, like a crumpled piece of paper.

His right fist hit his left palm hard, making a dull sound, showing the anger and unwillingness in his heart.

"Asshole!" he said through gritted teeth, his tone full of anger.

"I should have thought of it a long time ago!" He stood up suddenly and paced back and forth, like a beast trapped in a cage. "Let the Master of Hongchen Hall be sure to strengthen underground monitoring throughout the city."

He said firmly, with unquestionable command.

"They must have done the theft bombing in the underground warehouse." He paused, his tone full of certainty. "Other than burrowing into the ground, there is no way to break into the warehouse."

What exactly is going on in the underground warehouse has become a complete mystery.

No one can know exactly what happened. Xu Tianran could only blame the Star Luo Empire and the Tianhun Empire for this matter based on the principle of maximizing interests.

This will give more reason for the war that he will launch in the future.

Although the soul guidance devices were stolen, there were still many soul guidance devices that could not be taken away, which was a blessing among misfortunes.

And this also gave Xu Tianran a reason to take action. No matter who did it this time, the Sun and Moon Empire just thought it was Tianhun and the Star Luo Empire who did it.

The mysterious national master took a deep breath, exhaled it slowly, and said in a heavy tone: "This loss is indeed heavy."

He raised his eyelids and focused his gaze on Xu Tianran. The original address of "Your Highness" rolled around on the tip of his tongue before he swallowed it back and changed his words: "Oh, no, I should call you Your Majesty now."

He bowed slightly to show respect for the new emperor, then straightened up, stared at Xu Tianran with a burning gaze, and asked: "Your Majesty, when do you plan to send troops?"

His bony fingers knocked on the table unconsciously, once and again, as if beating the drums of war.

As the leader of the Holy Spirit Sect and the actual controller of this group of evil soul masters, no one is looking forward to the war more than him.

War means death and destruction, and it also means that countless soul powers will pour into his control and become the source of his strength.

He seemed to have seen countless souls wailing and struggling on the smoke-filled battlefield, and finally turned into pure energy, which was swallowed and absorbed by him.

Xu Tianran paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, frowning, as if weighing the pros and cons.

He stopped, pondered for a moment, and said: "This incident happened too suddenly. Stabilizing the internal situation is the top priority."

He walked to the window, looking into the distance, with a hint of helplessness in his tone: "Moreover, the underground warehouse was stolen, and we suffered heavy losses. Most of the soul guides prepared for the war disappeared."

He turned around and looked at the mysterious national teacher, with a hint of temptation: "If the national teacher is willing to invest all his efforts, we may be able to start the war in advance, but..."

There was a hint of hesitation in his words, and it was obvious that he did not have much hope for the full support of the Holy Spirit Church.

The mysterious national teacher shook his head decisively and said firmly: "We can only assist secretly, and we can never devote all our efforts."

His tone was firm and unquestionable: "The soul master world has never tolerated us. Although our current strength is enough to protect ourselves, if we fully participate in the war, we will definitely draw out those hidden sects."

He walked to Xu Tianran and lowered his voice: "At that time, it will be even more difficult for Your Majesty to complete the invasion."

He paused, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and continued: "In my opinion, the war can be postponed, but we can take this opportunity to deepen the hatred of the people against those two countries."

He stretched out his hand, made a fist, and said in a grim tone: "Continue to increase troops , training soldiers, making soul guides with all our strength, and making full preparations for the war. "

He stared at Xu Tianran with a sharp gaze, and said word by word: "Since we have already torn our faces apart, we must start the arms race in advance. If we don't do it, we will do it with a thunderous force and succeed in one fell swoop!"

Xu Tianran nodded with satisfaction, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he praised: "I also have this idea. To resist foreign aggression, we must first stabilize the country."

He walked to the table, picked up a list, handed it to the mysterious national teacher, and said in a deep voice: "I want to stabilize the domestic situation first, and take this opportunity to clear out a group of traitors. I'll trouble the national teacher for this matter."

At this point, Xu Tianran's eyes flashed with a cold light, and a hint of murderous intent appeared at the corner of his mouth.

The mysterious national teacher took the list and responded lightly: "Yes."

He glanced at the names on the list, and his tone was so calm that it made people palpitate: "Some people should indeed be responsible for this incident. As for those who have no problems, we can also say that they are the responsible personnel for this theft." (End of this chapter)
