Chapter 167 Top of the List: Above the Sky of Creation and Return to the Void!
The light that could illuminate the entire Douluo Continent did not exude the sharp or intoxicating aura it had before.
Instead, it carried an extreme peace!
So peaceful that all living beings subconsciously held their breath, their heartbeats seemingly slowing down.
There were no earth-shattering phenomena, no soul-shaking pressure!
Yet, it was precisely this "ordinariness" that sent chills down the spines of countless people.
How could an existence that could surpass Li Bai's "Drunken Dance of the Green Lotus, Poetry and Sword in Long Song" truly be ordinary?
"Boom boom boom!"
Finally, above the sky!
Golden characters slowly took shape.
Each character seemed to be engraved in the long river of time, carrying an eternal and immortal charm.

Lines of golden text, like thunderclaps, resounded throughout every corner of the Douluo Continent!
"Another...self-spirit fusion technique?"
"100% compatibility? Flawless, perfectly synchronized?"
"How powerful must a spirit fusion skill of god-level strength be!"
"Creation and Return to Nothingness... one thought for life, one thought for death?"
"This is no longer the power of a spirit master, this is the authority of a creator god!"
If Li Bai's self-fusion skill broke the ironclad rules of the spirit master world, then Lu Xiao's "Breath of Creation - Blade of Return to Nothingness" directly overturned everyone's understanding of power!
God-level strength, 100% perfect self-fusion of spirits!
The power of rules touching the very origin of the world...
How can this be just a spirit fusion skill?
This is clearly the descent of a true god, ruling the universe!
Countless spirit masters collapsed to the ground, staring blankly at the sky, muttering to themselves.
Even the strength to be shocked had vanished.
Those titled Douluo who once considered themselves geniuses and looked down upon the world now felt like ants, gazing at the unreachable heavens.
Spirit Hall, Papal Palace.
Bibi Dong stared intently at the words "100% Compatibility" on the sky, her purple eyes finally losing all their luster.
"Sigh!"
She slowly closed her eyes, a long, weak sigh escaping her lips.
She had guessed Lu Xiao would be at the top when Li Bai appeared on the list.
But despite her meticulous calculations, she hadn't anticipated the terrifying power of Lu Xiao's Martial Soul Fusion Technique.
His three Martial Souls occupied the top three spots on the Martial Soul Ranking!
His figure dominated the rankings of Soul Master Powerhouses and Combat Strength.
Now, even on the Martial Soul Fusion Technique ranking… he had reached the top with a single, overwhelming Martial Soul Fusion Technique!
Lu Xiao was like a towering mountain blocking the path of all Soul Masters; no matter how they climbed, they could never see the summit.
"Seeking his own death…"
Bibi Dong repeated these four words softly, her voice filled with numb self-mockery.
"From the very beginning, all my ambitions and schemes were nothing but the tricks of a clown in front of him."
Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately let out a bitter sigh.
His and Ghostly Douluo's dual static domains, once their pride, were now like child's toys compared to Lu Xiao's Martial Soul Fusion Technique.
"Not on the same level, really not on the same level..."
"Is he really a Soul Master from Douluo Continent?"
Ghostly Douluo's voice came from beneath his black robes, filled with deep despair.
Yes, was he really a Soul Master from Douluo Continent?
This thought arose simultaneously in the hearts of Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghostly Douluo, lingering there.
After all, in the history of Douluo Continent, there had never been such a heaven-defying existence! So heaven-defying that it made one doubt his origins.
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, inside the council hall.
Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong stood by the window, gazing at the golden characters on the sky.
Ning Fengzhi slowly nodded, a knowing smile on his face, but his eyes were filled with shock.
"As expected of Dean Lu, only he could unleash such an earth-shattering Martial Soul Fusion Technique."
"100% compatibility... Origin synchronization..."
Chen Xin murmured to himself.
The sword energy that had been surging around him for so long had now completely subsided.
In its place was an unprecedented clarity.
"I once thought that the ultimate sword path was to cut everything off, but now I know that there are even stronger realms above the sword path."
A trace of relief flashed in Gu Rong's eyes: "Fortunately, fortunately, we are friends with Beidou Academy, not enemies."
"With such an existence guarding Beidou, Douluo Continent and Rongrong may truly usher in a different future."
The three smiled at each other, the shock in their eyes gradually turning into relief.
Lu Xiao's strength, for them, was not a threat, but a reassurance.
The core area of the Star Dou Great Forest, the Lake of Life.
Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena, hovered above the lake.
Her purple eyes were fixed on the descriptions of the "Ancient Tree of Life" and the "Breath of Creation" on the sky, and her body trembled slightly.
She could clearly feel... the life essence contained within that Martial Soul Fusion Technique resonated subtly with the Dragon God's power within her.
"The Ancient Tree of Life... the Breath of Creation..."
Gu Yuena murmured softly!
A complex light flashed in her beautiful eyes.
One thought creates the world, another returns to nothingness.
This power, even the Dragon God in his prime, would likely take notice.
"The future of the Soul Beast race..."
Gu Yuena gazed at Lu Xiao's name on the sky, a hint of solemnity flashing in her eyes.
Was there truly still a future?
At Beidou Academy, in the martial arts arena.
Ning Rongrong and the others were already engrossed in wild cheers, deafening shouts of "Long live the Dean!" echoing through the heavens.
Even the academy buildings trembled slightly.
Ning Rongrong and Ye Lingling held hands tightly, their pretty faces flushed with excitement and pride, their gazes towards Lu Xiao filled with admiration.
Li Bai, carrying his wine gourd, tilted his head back and took a large gulp, laughing loudly, "Excellent! Excellent is the Breath of Creation - Blade of Return to Nothingness!"
"Dean, I, Li Bai, am convinced!"
"My poetic, wine-and-sword intent is but a child's play compared to your Martial Soul Fusion Technique!"
Lu Bu, wielding his halberd, his eyes blazing with fighting spirit, showed no provocation, only pure admiration: "Dean's abilities are unfathomable; I am truly convinced!"
