Baby with Daoist Monarch System

In mid-air.

Xu Ran was surrounded like a golden lightning bolt.

In a radiant golden glow, his hands quickly formed seals, golden runes danced and flickered around him, bursting out waves of unsettling ripples and vibrations.

He stepped with an unpredictable, eldritch movement, each step casting a golden light that shrouded the nine beams of light above in the high sky.

At this moment, Xu Ran appeared as a swiftly moving sun, with endless power surging from within.

In the span of a breath, Xu Ran appeared before the Celestial Secret Divine Gaze.

The Celestial Secret Divine Gaze, whose auxiliary function far surpasses its attack capability, previously shot golden rays from its eyes, which could break Xu Ran’s defenses mainly due to its ability to perceive the weaknesses in Xu Ran’s physical body.

Now, Xu Ran has deciphered the source, acquiring the ability to shield from celestial secrets, rendering the Celestial Secret Divine Gaze unable to discern his weaknesses.

Even if the Celestial Secret Divine Gaze were to lock onto Xu Ran again, the eight golden beams of ascending aura pose no threat of damage to Xu Ran!

Currently.

Directly approaching Xu Ran, the endless Spiritual Qi erupting from his body caused the Celestial Secret Divine Gaze’s form in the sky to distort.

With weak attack capability, even if it is a Divine Soldier, its defense is inferior to other Divine Soldiers.

Xu Ran’s swelling fists slammed onto the middle of the Celestial Secret Divine Gaze’s eyes.

Suddenly, a burst of golden light erupted from their collision, bathing the Dueling Arena in it.

At the same time, the space where the Celestial Secret Divine Gaze resided suddenly collapsed.

”Crack!”

A crisp shattering sound echoed, and the eight golden rays that hovered like headless flies in the sky instantly dimmed upon the sound, shrinking continuously.

In the blink of an eye, the golden rays, nearly a hundred meters thick, vanished.

Where the Celestial Secret Divine Gaze originally resided, the collapsed space shot out countless fragments, which, upon closer inspection, bore a golden aura and a trace of Heavenly Dao breath.

These fragments appeared in an instant, before anyone could react, the previously silent Ancient Bronze Gate reignited a light screen, an invisible hydraulic suction drew all the scattered fragments back in.

The Gold Attribute Puppet standing on the Ancient Bronze Gate saw its white aura decrease while the gate itself turned more illusionary.

Taking normal size again, Xu Ran turned his gaze to both entities.

”Looks like with one more time, this Gold Attribute Puppet and Ancient Bronze Gate will disappear!”

As the words fell, the quiet Ancient Bronze Gate’s light screen rippled, and the white color swiftly turned black, like clear water stained with ink, accompanied by a faint pervasive stench.

Soon, the black light screen, resembling a shattered mirror, spread cracks outward from the center.

Before anyone understood what happened.

”Dang!”

A crisp shattering sound resonated, the completely blackened screen shattered, instantly filling the Dueling Arena with a shocking corruption.

Simultaneously, nine dark pillars emerged from the broken black screen.

The nine stone pillars weren’t long, only about ten meters, their surface composed of enigmatic, obscure runes, each one marked with spider-web-like cracks, as if something ominous was attempting to break out.

This scene left Xu Ran bewildered.

Not only Xu Ran, but even the soul bodies spectating outside were affected by the pervasive stench as soon as the dark pillars appeared.

Likewise bewildered, they stared blankly at the nine pillars emerging from the Ancient Bronze Gate, their thoughts racing, trying to find records of these pillars in ancient mysteries.

Yet these soul bodies remained without any clue.

Not just them, even the three soul bodies at the forefront exhibited curiosity, clearly unable to decipher what these nine pillars were.

”Senior brother, what are these nine pillars that appeared?” The young sister frowned, a faint pink Soul Power clung to her nose, attempting to isolate the pervasive stench.

Yet even so, the stench couldn’t be blocked out.

”In my memory, there’s no such Divine Soldier from the Ancient Times, I can’t tell either?”

The second brother, unable to identify these Divine Soldiers despite witnessing the great battle where the Ancient Bronze Gate absorbed all masterless Divine Soldiers, found no answers.

Moreover, his Power of Black Flame couldn’t isolate the shocking corruption from these pillars.

In that moment, both directed their gaze towards the all-knowing senior brother, seeking answers.

Others did the same, including all soul bodies present.

Those who appeared here are paragons of their era, possessing rich resources, and the absence of even trace references in ancient mysteries aroused their supernatural curiosity.
