Douluo Continent: The Book of Witness and Peerless Tang Sect

After carefully observing the movements of the men in black and confirming that they did not have any means to directly locate their side, Long You and his group temporarily stopped in a mountain forest within the territory of the Star Luo Empire.

Firstly, Long You, as a mere Soul Saint, has far less Soul Power reserves than the powerful figures around him. His ability to move at supersonic speeds relies entirely on his "milk bottle" for energy, and these bottles are nearly depleted; he needs time to recover his Soul Power. Secondly, the gifts are all prepared, and everyone wants to see the effect of their delivery; otherwise, they won't dare use the items in the warehouse carelessly.

In the basin, the leader of the men in black looked at the scene, which had left no trace, and his expression turned quite grim. If the other party had forcibly broken through the guards of the evil spirits in the demiplane and entered the warehouse through combat, then the loss of the warehouse was not due to a lack of combat skills. As long as the Rakshasa demiplane was not exposed, the Holy Spirit Cult would feel the pain, but more than anything, they would be relieved.

However, the current situation shows no signs of battle in the basin, indicating that the enemy had been observing this place for a long time, identifying a defensive weakness and launching a fatal attack. Considering the strength of their own defensive system, the leader of the men in black believed that the enemy was close to the Holy Spirit Cult; otherwise, they wouldn't have had enough time to observe this warehouse. Most importantly, he couldn't assess the safety of the Rakshasa demiplane.

Since the other party had been observing this place for a long time without anyone noticing, the opening of the Rakshasa demiplane must have been exposed to them. Considering that the person who could keep an eye on this place and ultimately succeed couldn't be some nobody who relied purely on luck, the leader of the men in black believed that the other party had enough strength to detect the anomaly of the Rakshasa demiplane.

"Luo Liu, take some men to the warehouse and see how much we've lost, and see if the other side has left any clues. Luo Jiu, go to the Rakshasa demiplane and check on the guardian spirit's condition, try to get some information out of him."

Despite his grim expression and the multitude of thoughts swirling in his mind, the leader of the men in black quickly issued his orders. Whether the Rakshasa demiplane had been exposed or not would become clear once they captured the person.

The scene shifts to the mountains and forests within the Star Luo Empire. The events that unfolded with the leader of the men in black were transmitted flawlessly by the camera soul tool left behind by Long You. The leader's initial arrangements were exactly what Long You wanted, but his later mention of the Rakshasa demiplane deeply offended him.

"The Rakshasa Demiplane? The ruins of the Rakshasa God? The attributes of the Rakshasa God do indeed fit the attribute requirements of an evil soul master."

[The original timeline doesn't mention anything about the Rakshasa God's legacy. Could this be another scheme by a certain god-king? Did He sense something? Why has this unexpected variable suddenly appeared?]

If anyone present were to ask who was most familiar with the Rakshasa God from ten thousand years ago, it would undoubtedly be Di Tian, ​​the King of Soul Beasts, since he was a firsthand witness to that time. But if anyone were to ask who had the strongest reaction to the Rakshasa God, it would certainly be Long You.

The butterfly's wings fluttered, and the changes had already occurred silently. Long You had long been prepared for the loss of his original cheat-like abilities; in fact, he had always believed that his use and maintenance of his precognitive advantages were quite good. Now, he was suddenly told that his carefully planned scheme—one he had meticulously guarded against, one that prevented the God King from discovering it, and one that aimed to minimize the God King's interference in the Douluo World—had likely already been thwarted by other changes. This was incredibly frustrating.

Taking a couple of deep breaths, Long You, still retaining his composure, continued to focus his attention on the man in black. He was certain he had never fully revealed his true intentions, and as for the portion that had already been leaked, if the God-King knew, the changes would be far more than simply providing the Holy Spirit Cult with a remnant of the Rakshasa. Given the God-King's targeting, even with Di Tian's abilities, safely returning to the Star Dou Great Forest with the Emperor Beast was currently a pipe dream.

Since the final plan has not yet been discovered, Long You has no need to rush. He should be accumulating strength anyway, so what difference does it make if there is another Rakshasa God?

The demiplane opened successfully, and a terrifying evil spirit emerged from the dimensional portal. Before it could even attack the men in black, Luo Jiu, who had been called upon by the leader earlier, took out a piece of red flesh from his storage soul tool—a piece whose abundance of flesh and blood energy could be felt even by visual observation—and tossed it in front of the evil spirit. The evil spirit, like a vicious dog that had received a bone, happily wagged its tail and abandoned its guard duty in the face of this piece of flesh.

After the evil spirit's state stabilized, Luo Jiu summoned his martial soul and began whispering to it. This time, fearing that the camera soul tool would be directly exposed to the evil spirit's perception, Long You, who had controlled it to move away in advance, couldn't hear what Luo Jiu was asking. He could only manipulate the recording soul tool to quickly collect the aura around the demiplane and then move away from the basin.

On the other side, Luo Liu led most of the men in black to finally unlock the warehouse door and enter. Considering that his method of arranging the gifts was a bit rough and fearing that the gifts would not have the desired effect, Long You, after confirming that someone had seen the situation in the warehouse, immediately activated the detonator connected to the fixed soul-guided cannon shell.

After the dazzling sound and light effects, the camera soul tool that Long You left in the warehouse turned to ashes. Half a minute later, a layer of blood-red mist that spread from the warehouse finally covered the entire basin, completely destroying the last detection soul tool that Long You left there.

Judging from the footage transmitted back before the soul probe completely failed, the men in black were all finished. Even the evil spirit that ran back to the demiplane showed signs of spiritual instability, clearly indicating that it had suffered serious injuries.

"Tsk, is this the power of a level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell? Although it is achieved through unorthodox means and its power may be different from that of a traditional level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell, it is really powerful!"

What is the working principle of that layer of blood mist? It certainly doesn't only target flesh and blood beings; otherwise, that evil spirit wouldn't have been harmed.

Putting down the receiver, Long You asked the big shots around him a question, which was met with silence. Everyone present was witnessing the explosion of a level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon for the first time, and they couldn't explain the principles behind it at all.

"If it were based on my on-site experience, I might be able to offer some advice, but that won't do. When will your aura-gathering soul tool be back? Will it be able to record anything?"

In the end, it was Di Tian who broke the silence. The level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell could indeed threaten it, but the King of Soul Beasts was confident that it would be injured but not killed, and quickly regained its composure.

"I'm afraid that's unlikely. In order to prevent the aura-gathering soul tool from being destroyed there, I controlled it to retreat at full speed. By the time the shell exploded, it was already far away."

Shrugging, Long You gave an answer that disappointed the beast somewhat. Everyone wants to fully understand what threatens them, and the King of Soul Beasts was no exception.

"Alright, I've rested enough. Let's head to the Star Dou Great Forest now. We still have other samples, don't we?"
