Su Ming became the President of the Blacksmith Association.
Simultaneously, news of Su Ming succeeding as the Body Sect Master and Sea God Pavilion Master spread one after another on the internet.
In just a short period, it caused a massive shock throughout the Federation.
However, no matter how the Federation's public opinion fermented, no one could stop it.
Su Ming's control over the entire Federation reached its peak in an instant.
Even the ongoing internal purge within the Federation was influenced.
A so-called purge inevitably meant the fall of most parliamentarians, and simultaneously signified the emergence of a great deal of new power.
And these new power holders would also inevitably have to comply. (inevitably have to conform to) the new era.
Thus—
Unbeknownst to all, even the Federal Parliament was reforming in Su Ming's image.
The Parliament was leaning towards Su Ming.
Similarly, the title of War God Hall Master would also naturally fall into Su Ming's hands.
Of course, the prerequisite was that Guan Yue, the one blocking the way, had to leave the War God Hall.
For the four superpowers, their leaders certainly couldn't have low strength. If not Quasi-Gods, they at least had to be Limit Douluos.
Within the current War God Hall, Chen Xinjie and Guan Yue were the two Quasi-Gods. Even Yu Guanzhi, Dong Zi'an, and the other powerhouses from the great legions were also considered Vice Hall Masters of the War God Hall.
In reality, these were merely nominal titles.
The only one truly managing War God Hall affairs, unrelated to the external legions, was Guan Yue.
Chen Xinjie could serve as Hall Master purely because he was strong, and Guan Yue wasn't a Quasi-God back then either.
After leaving the Blacksmith Association, Su Ming formally threw himself into the encirclement and suppression of the Holy Spirit Cult.
Halosa and the Four Heavenly Kings weren't hard to find.
A semi-plane child, once artificially conceived, had no possibility of hiding before Su Ming.
As for the Four Heavenly Kings, they were naturally with Halosa.
The Ghost Emperor's death was a huge blow to... The Holy Spirit Cult.
After all, the Demon Empress hadn't completed her transformation yet. The Ghost Emperor and the Nether Emperor were the two pillars. The Nether Emperor barely interfered in cult affairs; it was mostly the Ghost Emperor managing them.
Now, the only two Quasi-Gods in charge were dead, one of them. The cult naturally lost its backbone.
Even the Four Heavenly Kings were having a tough time lately, simply unable to get along with the Nether Emperor, Halosa.
But even if they couldn't get along, the Four Heavenly Kings currently had to stick close to the Nether Emperor.
Their strength was high; they were all Super Douluos.
However, compared to the Limit Douluos now searching the entire continent for their whereabouts... (Searching the entire continent for them), they were far short.
Currently, the mobilized Limit Douluos within the Federation numbered as many as eight. Two locked onto each Heavenly King. Adding the existence of the Evil-Reflecting Mirror, once they appeared, it was almost impossible to shake off the Federation's surveillance. It would take less than a day before the Limit Douluos arrived.
However, they didn't know that the two areas where Evil Spirit Masters absolutely must not appear were now the Evil-Reflecting Mirror's detection range and... the Nether Emperor Halosa.
"Sure enough, they're here. Su Ming, how did you know?"
Guan Yue was also somewhat puzzled, looking at Su Ming. With a puzzled expression.
At this moment, five Limit Douluos moved out simultaneously: Su Ming, Guan Yue (Quasi-Gods), plus Dong Zi'an, one from the Southern Legion, and one from the Central Legion.
The old Angel and Yu Guanzhi had already left their legions for the Abyssal battlefield. The two legions had again elected two new Limit Douluos to serve as Legion Commanders.
The Limit Douluo from the Angel family-controlled Southern Legion was also from the Angel family, and was 'on the verge of a breakthrough'.
As for the Central Legion, this Limit Douluo wasn't from the Yu family, where Yu Guanzhi came from, but from another major family of a different faction within the Central Legion.
These two Limit Douluos were both 'just broke through'. ('newly broken through').
The exact time of their breakthrough wasn't recorded by the Federation.
Su Ming was also quite generous towards these two new Limits, directly promising a Four-Word Battle Armor.
Of course, he couldn't just hand it over.
Nor could he give out two sets of Four-Word Battle Armor just for surrounding the Nether Emperor.
He simply invited the two to the Abyssal battlefield with the promise of Four-Word Battle Armor.
Limit Douluos? If you're a Limit Douluo, go defend the Abyssal battlefield. Don't wander around outside.
Holy Spirit Cult threats to be resolved will be resolved early. Next, no one should waste their lives outside, all go work, devouring the Abyss.
Su Ming in Douluo 2 focuses more on self-improvement. Su Ming in Douluo 3, on the other hand, was quite the opposite, focusing more on his identity as Lord of the Plane.
Firstly, his Martial Soul, Energy Control, allowed him to directly control more energy as Lord of the Plane, directly improving himself.
Secondly, he also had to become the foundation of the entire Real Future.
And precisely because he focused more on the identity of Lord of the Plane, Su Ming's previous monopolistic mindset towards the Abyss was discarded.
As long as the Abyss is fully swallowed... As for who contributed more and who contributed less, Su Ming didn't care as much anymore.
"How did you find this place?"
Halosa was also very puzzled at this moment.
He didn't understand; he was practically hiding in the deep sea, on an inconspicuous small island at that.
Why was he found? The Federation-wide Evil-Reflecting Mirror couldn't have become planet-wide, could it? Then how is anyone supposed to play? "You three handle the Four Heavenly Kings. Guan Yue and I will handle Halosa."
Su Ming simply divided the tasks.
No one else objected.
Halosa's abilities were very strange; he might escape. Two people attacking together was the safest.
As for the Four Heavenly Kings? Dong Zi'an gave a fierce laugh, fused with his Four-Word Battle Armor. His entire aura surged instantly, seemingly about to break through the Quasi-God threshold.
Unfortunately, it ultimately didn't break through.
The next moment, his aura declined. Half of his Spirit Power separated from his body. A stream of light also appeared from within him, revealing its true form—it was actually a This was a god-level mecha, offering an extremely powerful enhancement even to a Limit Douluo like Dong Zi'an. This mecha wasn't focused on spirit cannons or similar methods, but on close-quarters combat slaughter, perfectly matching Dong Zi'an's Martial Soul.
It was a true killing machine.
Now, Dong Zi'an's Spirit Power split in two. Himself with one half, the mecha fused with the other. The man and the mecha each charged towards the two strongest among the Four Heavenly Kings.
The remaining two Limits looked at each other.
Their eyes held envy.
The Four-Word Battle Armor on Dong Zi'an was very dazzling. The brand-new four-word battle armor exuded an irresistible allure.
Especially Dong Zi'an's aura.
He was about to break into Quasi-God! He hadn't coordinated with the mecha's burst earlier. On the contrary, when approaching the threshold, he directly and proactively split his Spirit Power, stopping his exploration of the Limit.
So, was Dong Zi'an considered a Quasi-God now? The two swallowed hard, their desire for the four-word battle armor growing even stronger.
A Four-Word Battle Armor Master isn't necessarily a Quasi-God, but a Quasi-God definitely has four-word battle armor. Four-Word Battle Armor!
Of course, the desire was momentary. They didn't forget their mission. One possessed the Angel Martial Soul, the other had a blazing sun appear behind him! The Three-Word Battle Armor fused. They charged respectively towards the remaining two Heavenly Kings.
Seeing this, Halosa also erupted directly without hesitation, his domain spreading: Netherworld Reincarnation Domain.
Within his domain, countless corpses revived, charging towards Su Ming and Guan Yue.
Su Ming gave a cold snort, his right hand beckoning. A clump of sickly white flame was tossed towards the depths of the... Nether Emperor's domain.
Now, the Purifying Flame had already burned a crack in his domain. Where it passed, it was as if the domain had never existed.
Unstoppable! And as the Purifying Flame burned its way through...
